Shame, Andrade got the name-shortening treatment just as he had what was easily his best match on the main roster. This was a bona fide match of the year candidate and the best seen on WWE television in quite some time.

Almas and Mysterio got the time they needed to put together the match we all knew they were capable of having, and boy, did they deliver. There was brisk action, insane spots, and thrilling near falls that kept you guessing until the very end.

Ultimately, Zelina Vega made herself known, and the distraction allowed "Andrade" to hit the Hammerlock DDT from the second rope to secure the biggest win of his main roster career in beating a legend such as Mysterio, who lost nothing.

This was a breakout performance and the feud has continued. Let's hope it all ends with Almas going over and securing the US title at WrestleMania.
