5 Ups & 4 Downs From AEW Dark (May 12)

By Andy H Murray / May 13, 2020

2. A Short Stumble

The Dark Order's 10 vs. Jon Cruz was the shortest and most dominant bout on the card but had a couple of problems, most notably an ugly facebuster close to the ropes that Cruz looked fortunate roll away from without being injured.

A couple of table-setting moments (in which the larger 10 was left standing around to catch or react to Cruz) undid the bout further. The narrative was good, though, with the announcers putting 10 over as Brodie Lee's top recruit - and the Dark Order leader hitting the stage to applaud his charge after the bell.

10 has good size, a nice moveset, and gives the Order something different. His dominance didn't look too convincing here though.
