Excalibur welcomed us to Dark and was joined on commentary by Anthony Ogogo and Taz..
1. John Skyler vs. “FTW” Champion Brian Cage. Cage plowed over Skyler as the bell rang, but Skyler threw thrust kicks in an attempt to stop him. Cage lifted up Skyler and planted him down on the mat. Cage ended Skyler quickly with the Drill Claw.
FTW Champion Brian Cage defeated John Skyler via pinfall.
Briar’s Take: Like every week, another dominant, quick match for Cage.
2. Serpentico vs. Lee Johnson (w/Arn Anderson). After dodging each other’s moves, Johnson hit a dropkick to Serpentico that sent him down on the mat. Serpentinco fired back by hitting strikes and hit a low DDT to Johnson. Serpentico flew over the ropes for a diving stomp. Johnson hit a swinging neckbreaker and then planted Serpentico on Johnson’s knee. Johnson won by hitting the Blue Thunder Bomb on Serpentico to pick up his first win on AEW Dark.
