Rey Fenix Outlasts Nick Jackson
AEW Dynamite kicked off tonight with a singles contest between Nick Jackson and Rey Fenix. Despite being without their tag partners, both wrestlers put on quite the show for the crowd. Both men managed to kick out of several near-falls, and Jackson matched Fenix at every step despite the Mexican being a much more experienced singles competitor. The end finally came after Fenix hit a muscle buster driver.
High risk comes high reward!
