Dante Martin vs. Max Caster on AEW Dark: Elevation
Max Caster's latest diss verse had a line about Dante Martin's mother, and that indeed made this match a more heated affair.
Martin and Caster canceled each other out with some intricate sequences.
Dante tried the top-rope plancha, but Caster moved out. Dante swept Max off his feet on the outside before going back into the ring. Caster stopped Martin from delivering a high-flying move, and Dante crashed face-first on the top turnbuckle.
Caster delivered an innovative twisted wristlock slam and continued to work on Dante's left arm. He positioned Martin on the top rope and executed a cutter.
Caster went for multiple pinfall attempts, but Martin was kicked out. He wasn't backing off as he went right back to the forearm shots.
Max, however, missed a running knee. Martin delivered a standing lariat, followed by a couple of dropkicks. The comeback was real, and the pace of the match was just about to pick up.
Martin executed an insane tope suicida. Back in the ring, he got a two-count from a springboard crossbody. Martin then took the boombox, but the ref was never going to let him use it.
Caster used the distraction to kick Martin in the neither region. The referee didn't know about the cheap shot, and Caster hit the Mic Drop from the top for the win.
