-Elsewhere backstage:  Chavo met with Lotus...he tried to play nice, but Lotus saw the sneak attack coming and fought him off.  Next up were the remaining members of The Crew(Cortez Castro & Mr. Cisco)...Lotus put the nearby lockers to good use, but Chavo hit her from behind with a kendo stick and handcuffed her.
-Son Of Havoc, Angélico, & Ivelisse Velez(still on crutches) d. Big Rycklon Stephens, Brian Cage, & "The Golden Warrior" DelAvar Daivari to retain the Trios Titles; El Texano Jr. took out Ryck with his bullrope, leading to Havoc pinning Daivari after the shooting star press (7:39).

-Pentagon Jr. d. Sexy Star in a submission match; Star had Pentagon in a half-crab, but Super Fly turned on Star by breaking up the hold, then hitting her with a Demon Bomb.  Pentagon followed up with the package piledriver, then locked her in a surfboard hold with a  chinlock for the tapout (9:35).  Pentagon set up to break Star's arm, but Vampiro left the broadcast table to stop him...the two had a staredown, but Vampiro walked away from the confrontation.
