4. Will Hobbs vs. Jessy Sorenson

The elevation of Will Hobbs continued with another one-sided pounding last night, as the up-and-comer trashed Jessy Sorenson in about a minute.

This was all it needed to be. Sorenson landed no more than a handful of strikes throughout, as Hobbs had far too much for him to handle. His control never truly in doubt, the big man ran through some of his meaty power spots, bashed Jessy around, then hit the Oklahoma Stampede to put him away.

Expect Hobbs to continue in a similar way going forward. He has earned this opportunity after emerging as one of Dark's biggest highlights, so let's hopes he pushes on.
