Before the bell, Angel and Berto attacked LA Knight, but their attempt to subdue the champion backfired, leading to Angel, Berto and Elektra Lopez all getting ejected by the official.
Knight and Santos Escobar traded finishing attempts, but both competitors had each other scouted and avoided one another’s devastating moves.
After a massive elbow from the top rope followed by a BFT, Knight was successful in his first U.S. Title defense.
