-"The Wrestler" Katsuyori Shibata & Hook co-won a triple threat match with "The Bounty Hunter" Bryan Keith when Keith tapped out to Shibata's figure-four leglock as Hook caught Keith in the Redrum(ka ta hajime) at the same time (6:31).  FTW Champion "The Learning Tree" Chris Jericho & "Big Bill" William Morrissey did commentary.
-"The Alpha" Konosuke Takeshita(w/ Don Callis) d. "Rebourne" Matt Sydal after a knockout forearm smash (1:58).  Jon Moxley confronted Takeshita after the match.
-Heavyweight Champion Shane "Swerve" Strickland d. "The Prodigy" Nick Wayne(non-title) with the House Call(jumping reverse kick to the back of the head) (8:54).  Killswitchsaurus(w/ "The Patriarch" Christian Cage & Shayna Wayne) attacked Swerve after the pin, but Swerve disposed of Killswitch with a low blow and chased off Christian; Christian tried to steal a car to get away, but Prince Nana cut off his escape and Swerve got in a few shots before Christian finally escaped for good.
-Malakai Black d. Kyle O'Reilly via The End(spinning kick) (10:20).  Afterwards, Malakai was on the receiving end of a Brood-style bloodbath.

-"The American Dragon" Bryan Danielson d. Satnam Singh(w/ Jeff Jarrett, Jay Lethal, & Sonjay Dutt) by DQ when Singh's cornermen interfered as Danielson had Singh in the LeBell Lock (5:01).  Danielson fought back but it was four-on-one as Tag Team Champions The Young Bucks(Matthew & Nicholas Jackson) came out to observe and then take over the beating.  That brought out Continental Champion "The Rainmaker" Kazuchika Okada, as well as a blindside attack by "Scapegoat" Jack Perry.  However, a car arrived at the building carrying Darby Allin and driven by Tony Khan...Darby entered the arena blasting a flamethrower into the air (because WHY THE HELL NOT), inspiring Danielson to fight back and throw Nicholas Jackson through a table.
