This was a decent bout. Low Ki was leaning pretty heavily into his heel character instead of bringing his A game, but it still managed to be a strong encounter between the two. It's noticeable how overlooked the code of honor has become at this point with more of an ECW feel creeping into the booking, but I suppose that was inevitable in order for the company to have ongoing storylines. Low Ki ducks the extra five minutes after a time limit draw, and we're left without a number one contender for the world title.

A first ever match-up here between a very intriguing pairing on paper. It's a 20-minute time limit draw, which makes sense since Aries ain't gonna lose just before he is about to beat Joe for the World Title, and Low Ki is Low Ki. It's a very good match. Ki is just great here with his work on top & combining that with his arrogant heel attitude. Aries from underneath is natural given the pairing, and he rocks the role well. It is not the epic I could see these two having, but it's a very good, competitive match between two terrific wrestlers. ***1/2
