Aerostar Vs. Drago
The show kicked off and we have Josh Matthews and Don Callis on commentary which was a pretty good commentary team throughout the show.
In an interesting twist, however, the first match of Impact Wrestling's pay-per-view was between two Lucha Underground Superstars, but what a way to kick of the show with a messy, high-flying and exciting affair between Aerostar and Drago.
The match two men traded pins and felt each other out before the high-flying action began. However, one of the more notable spots from the match was this Springboard Reverse Cannonball that surely must have hurt.
The finish came when Drago hit Aerostar with a Powerbomb and then went for a second, only for Aerostar to counter it into a Springboard Cutter, followed by a Codebreaker for the pin.
Result: Aerostar Def. Drago
