Lince Dorado vs. Neville

Result: Neville defeated Lince Dorado via submission

Rating: 2.5 out of 5 stars

Not that I’m complaining about fresh blood from 205 Live showing up on Raw, but whoever dusted the cobwebs off the woefully underused Lince Dorado should have done it weeks ago.

Dorado shows flashes of why he was signed in the first place, with some brief bits of exciting athleticism. The suicide dive with a flip was something that even surprised the crowd. No Raw cruiserweight match is supposed to excite the audience!

But with Akira Tozawa at ringside (in the Titus Section, apparently), clearly, the purpose of this match is to set up the official match between Neville and Tozawa. After Neville locks in the Rings of Saturn for a submission victory, Tozawa makes his way into the ring.

But Tozawa’s boss (? I guess?) Titus comes out to prevent a free fight. And apparently, Titus finally inked Tozawa to his stable, since he had the authority to get a match put together for Great Balls of Fire. If it weren’t for Lesnar vs. Joe, a championship match between Tozawa and Neville would be the match of the night for me.

Low key best part of this whole segment? Watch Neville’s face when Titus compares the Neville Level to the Power of Tozawa. The eye roll he unleashed was so exaggerated I could practically hear it from Long Island.

Sneaky Bliss

All through the night, the Raw Women’s Division were shown drawing numbers for their entry into tonight’s Gauntlet match to determine the number one contender for Great Balls of Fire. After Nia Jax was the last to pull her number, Alexa Bliss tried to get on her good side, but Nia would have none of it.
