-Heavyweight Champion/ROH Tag Team Champion Maxwell Jacob Friedman d. ROH Tag Team Champion Adam Cole to retain the Heavyweight Title.  The match initially ended in a double-pin draw when each man clotheslined the other and the referee counted both men's shoulders down (as each had an arm over the other), but Cole demanded a restart and M.J.F. (showing his character development) agreed to it this time (after denying it after the 30:00 draw).  Roderick Strong interfered with the referee down (without Cole's knowledge), but M.J.F. survived and got the surprise pin with a small package.  Despite some post-match drama over their respective morality struggles, the two hugged it out to close the show.
