1. Lopez's Messy Win Leads To A Cringey Spin

Xyon Quinn endured something of a bumpy week during the previous edition of 2.0, with his pulverising of Robert Stone being largely overshadowed by a chilling rendition of Sexy Boy with accompanying gyration. But said moves clearly caught Elektra Lopez's attention as the Legado lady requested he kept an eye on her match last night.

Hopefully the ladies' man was chatting up the rest of the locker room during the contest or else you can bet he'll be picking his dance partners a little more wisely. Lopez, though admittedly a potential force in the ring, still feels a little out of control on occasion. And this was on show again as she finished off Erica Yan with a lopsided-looking spin-out powerbomb.

The match was only half of the issue here, though, as Quinn eventually answered Lopez's calls to join team del Fantasma. His emphatic "no" led to a trouncing of Wilde and Mendoza before one of the most awkward exchanges in Tuesday night history span into our lives. Blocking both attempted strikes, Quinn wrapped up Lopez in a sexually tense knot, only to slink out of the ring like he'd just enchanted her for life.

Quinn is a genuine commodity on this show, possessing riveting explosiveness and a truly unique look to boot. But the more he spins the less we win.
