-Christian Cage(w/ Luchasaurus) d. Darby Allin(w/ Nick Wayne) in a best-of-three-falls match to retain the TNT Title.  Falls:  Darby pinned Christian with a jackknife cradle.  Christian defeated Darby by countout after suplexing and slamming him into the ring steps.  Nick Wayne stopped Christian from using the title belt with the referee down, but then turned on Darby and decked him with it; that allowed Christian to get the pin once the official recovered.  Sting attempted to help but Luchasaurus arrived to tilt the odds in the favor of the rulebreakers.  Before Christian could deliver a solo Conchairto to Sting, he was interrupted by the arrival of "The Rated R Superstar" Adam Copeland(fka Edge)!  Copeland teased joining the crew, only to clear the ring with a chair and take out Luchasaurus and Wayne with spears.  Christian retreated with his crew and Copeland shook hands with Darby and Sting to close the show.
