Rating: Sweet merciful Christ. On a card with several great matches, it fell to Will Ospreay and co. to steal the show with one of the best Fatal-4-Way matches from any promotion in recent memory.

Ospreay was his typical superhuman self, but everyone here brought their A-game and delivered accordingly. The multi-man layout felt less generic and patronising than WWE fans in particular might expect, and it really felt like anyone could win.

There were some jaw-dropping counters to Ospreay's high-flying offence, which he sold beautifully, and though Ospreay always seemed like the most likely victor, all four guys worked their a**es off to deliver the night's certifiable show-stealer. 9/10
