Andrade 'Cien' Almas vs Fabian Aichner
The new NXT Champion opened the show, coming out for a non-title match, his first match since winning the NXT Championship. Almas' opponent was former CWC competitor Fabian Aichner who put on an impressive showing.
Aichner flew around the ring like a man half his size and pulled off some impressive offence including a spectacular dive over the top rope as well as a springboard DDT from the apron inside the ring.
Almas looked surprised early on, at the ferocity and speed of Aichner's offence. As Aichner looked to set up a moonsault, Zelina Vega climbed onto the apron at the right moment to distract him.
Almas took advantage and pushed him off the top turnbuckle and onto the floor. El Idolo then sent Aichner crashing into the steel steps, to an audible thud, before rolling him inside the ring and hitting the Hammerlock DDT for the win.
