5 Ups & 8 Downs From AEW Dark (Aug 25)

Ups...

5. Santana & Oritz vs. The Metro Brothers

The Metro Brothers have worked a couple of guest spots in NXT over the past few years, though they've largely struggled to break out on the independent circuit between those, working primarily in the southern states. Here, Chris and JC were effective victims for Santana and Ortiz to run through.

The Inner Circle men are at their best when they get nasty. They didn't straight-up smash the Metros but they were solid throughout, cruising past them with minimal fuss en route to a quick, elevatory victory.
