One of the longest wrestling weekends of the year has begun and there's tons to get excited about. Joe vs. Nakamura, Okada vs. Castle, and Styles vs. Cena are on my personal list of stuff that I must watch before work on Monday. There's so much in front of us and it's all great, but let's not get hasty and forget to look back on the best action of the previous week.

A few of the more notable moves this time around include Akira Tozawa falling victim to an incredibly humorous submission during the Cruiserweight Classic, AJ Styles taking a John Cena signature move through an announce table on SmackDown, and poor Martin Kirby learning the hard way on WCPW not to mess Grado's personal belongings.

All of these spots and seven more lie ahead, so proceed for plenty of wrestling fun...

10. Baseball Slide By Itami

Cruiserweight Classic competitor Mustafa Ali popped up on NXT this week, facing off against Hideo Itami. Proving his feet are deadly no matter where you are in the arena, Itami performed this seemingly out of nowhere baseball slide from inside the ring to Ali as he approached within striking distance.

This was kind of a squash as Itami won this contest in under 4 minutes. However, it's always nice seeing the CWC talent pop up on the other Wednesday night WWE Network show.
