"The Elite Hunter" Frankie Kazarian vs. Dean Alexander on AEW Dark
Frankie Kazarian got overpowered by Alexander in the early moments of the match. The Elite Hunter used his experience to take Dean down with two arm drags and maintain wrist control.
Alexander got back with a cheap shot and a springboard leg lariat. Alexander got the boos as he delivered some ground and pound.
Dean called for the finish after connecting with a high boot. However, Kaz escaped the powerbomb attempt and landed a leaping forearm, back elbow, and leg lariat.
Kazarian almost took Dean's head off with a running lariat before running his knees into the spine. Frankie's offense prepared Alexander for the chicken-faced crosswing, which got the former SCU member another win in the books.
