Match 2: Yuta Uemura & Josh Alexander vs Violence is Forever (Dominic Garrini & Kevin Ku)

The BLP aren’t on the line tonight but that doesn’t mean the champs are taking their opponents lightly at all. Dom and Yuya trade their high level grappling skills, countering and reversing each other. Dom is flustered that he’s not just winning this contest and tags Ku in to test the Impact World Champion. They trade some fast holds, Alexander almost gets the ankle and Ku right to the ropes. Hip toss and Alexander wraps up the arm, Ku gets tagged on and Yuya keeps that focus on the limb.
