3. Trent Seven Had a lot of Buzz and He Showed Why in the Opening Match

Trent Seven and H.C. Dyer were put in a tough spot. The anticipation for this show had been building, the crowd was red-hot, and it was all coming to a head, as Seven and Dyer stood in the ring and the bell rang to start it all off.

Dyer got a nice bit of offense in, but this was a showcase match for the 35-year-old Seven.

Seven is one of the older guys in this tournament, but with only 8 years experience in the ring, he has less wear and tear than most of the other participants. That fact will definitely be to his benefit when WWE looks at picking a winner and the original face of the potential weekly Network program.

Plus, when looking at the angle that they ran with Pete Dunne at the end of the show, it’s clear that they are trying to make him the lead heel of the tournament and could be sending him to the finals. With how over Seven was with the crowd, he could be the perfect face for Dunne to lock up with and put a bow on the tournament.
