CJ Parker vs. Baron Corbin
End of Days. 34 seconds. Bull Dempsey watched from the front row.
Corbin defeats Parker via pinfall.
Corbin is so over, just from these squash matches. It’s pretty insane.

Corbin asked Dempsey if they were going to do this, or if he just wanted to stand there and look scared.
Corbin walked out of the ring and pulled Dempsey over the barricade, and the two brawled until they were pulled apart by referees.
I will say, the build for this has been a lot of fun. It’s the complete lack of interest in Dempsey that’s killing it.
William Regal and Curtis Axel w/ Devin Taylor
Regal announced that Sami Zayn would be on NXT next week, and that he would announce his health status, particularly as it pertains to the NXT Championship.
At this point, Axel barged in and asked why Regal isn’t returning his calls. He said he wants to “recharge his batteries” in NXT.
Regal didn’t seem too receptive to Axel, and Axel made sure to note that he is a former Intercontinental Champion, who has beaten Triple H and John Cena.
Regal gave in, and said that Axel would have a match next week, against Hideo Itami.
I think Axel will be great in NXT, taking over the Tyson Kidd role. Plus, he did beat Triple H, even if he never actually pinned him, so we know he’ll be treated somewhat fairly.
