We opened up with 6-man tag team action!

John Silver and Alex Reynolds of Dark Order and “Hangman” Adam Page vs. Matt Hardy and Private Party—Marq Quen and Isiah Kassidy!

“Dark Order helped Page during the battle royal two weeks ago and convinced him to tag with them tonight,” said Excalibur.

Page and Quen started the match for their respective teams. Both men evaded attacks from one another, each one step quicker than the next. Hardy tagged in, pushing Page into his corner. Private Party and Hardy utilized quick tags to neutralize Page. Silver and Reynolds came in to even up the odds. Page had Silver on his back and dropped down with a senton onto Kassidy for a near fall!

Reynolds got a blind tag and he and Silver pancaked Kassidy. Page followed up with a standing shooting star press. Reynolds tagged in and blasted Kassidy with roundhouse kicks! Page smiled as he watched Silver pose and get the upper hand on Kassidy.

Hardy tagged in and helped set up a Quen moonsault off Kassidy’s back onto Silver! Hardy tagged back in and worked over Silver with a vice-like headlock. Silver fought back with elbows but Hardy knocked him down once again. Hardy jumped off the turnbuckles but John Silver countered with a big brain buster!

Page and Kassidy got the hot tags and Page met Kassidy with two consecutive lariats. He then used a fallaway slam and a mean clothesline on Kassidy for a two-count. Hardy came in and connected with a side effect on Page for a near fall! Page leveled Matt Hardy with a clothesline!

Reynolds tagged in and used a rolling back elbow on Quen! This was followed by a suplex on Quen for a two-count. Silver and Reynolds used combination offense on Quen with help from Page, but Hardy made the save. Hardy pulled out Silver with the Twist of Fate! Reynolds was isolated in the ring and Private Party used Gin & Juice on him! Hardy tagged himself him and grabbed the pin on Reynolds!

“A win is a win but Private Party are not pleased with how it all went down,” said Excalibur.

Alex Marvez interviewed Inner Circle backstage.

MJF had an award from The New York Times for “Best Performance” for the Dinner Debonaire. Jericho reminded MJF that he was also a part of that. MJF said, “Thanks, I couldn’t have done it without you,” and smirked.

“The American Nightmare” Cody Rhodes (with Brandi Rhodes and Arn Anderson) vs. TH2’s Angelico (with Jack Evans)!

Cody Rhodes was introduced as a “future father” by Justin Roberts, as Brandi Rhodes and Arn Anderson walked to the ring with him.

“You gotta wonder. Cody just had a huge announcement. Is he thinking about the baby on the way, or avoiding a submission from Angelico?” asked Jim Ross.

Angelico stepped a wristlock from Cody and took Cody down with an arm drag. Angelico put a waist lock on Cody but there was a clean rope break. Angelico pie-faced Cody. After crisscrossing the ropes, Cody hit a pinpoint accurate dropkick on Angelico.

“This has been an evenly fought and unique matchup,” said Jim Ross.

Cody used brute force with two clotheslines and then a powerslam to Angelico. Cody removed his weight belt and tossed it out of the ring. Angelico blocked a punch from Cody and then wrapped him up in a submission. Cody inched over to the ropes and bit down on the ropes to force the ref to break the hold.

Cody rocked Angelico with a thrust kick and a punch, but Angelico countered with the deathroll, wrenching on Cody’s knee! Cody Rhodes forced the break again as his fingertips reached the bottom rope.

Cody hooked Angelico for CrossRhodes but Angelico blocked it. Cody connected with a big Cody cutter off the ropes and pinned Angelico!

Taz interrupted Cody’s music, along with Team Taz: “Cody Rhodes is gonna be a daddy. Oh it’s so nice,” said Taz, mockingly.

Taz pointed to Darby Allin, who was in the stands, and said that Brian Cage was going to whoop Allin soon. Taz said Team Taz would be coming to the ring to put Cody on paternity leave. Before Team Taz could get to the ring, the lights went out and Sting appeared!

“It’s Sting!” said Tony Schiavone.

Sting pointed the baseball bat at Team Taz and then backed off. Sting stood on the ramp and winked at Cody. Darby Allin watched from the rafters.

“It’s very interesting that every time we see Cody out here, we see Sting,” observed Tony Schiavone.

Alex Marvez was backstage with Miro and said Miro was fined $75,000 for attacking three people! Miro said it was Orange Cassidy’s fault!

“Mad King” Eddie Kingston was out next with a live microphone.

“Boo, cheer my name, because at the end of the day I don’t care about any of you people. I’m here because I’m gonna address my enemies. I have a lot of enemies. Where is “The Bastard” PAC? He went home. He’s nursing his neck! Trust me, his career is done. Here’s the other one—that big, goofy bastard Lance Archard!”

Archer sprinted to the ring and began kicking a mudhole into Kingston. The Butcher and Blade ran to the ring to help Kingston. Rey Fenix and Penta El Zero Miedo joined the melee to help Kingston. And then “The Bastard” PAC jumped into the ring—the Death Triangle were back! Rey Fenix took out the Butcher and the Blade with a tornillo. PAC and Archer debated one another over who got the last piece of Kingston.

Kingston, Butcher, Blade, and Bunny retreated. Archer and the Death Triangle stood triumphant in the ring.

“The Natural” Dustin Rhodes was interviewed by Dasha Gonzalez!
