Commentators: Tom Phillips, Corey Graves
Opening sequence.
American Alpha vs. Blake and Murphy
Gable and Murphy get things going with Chad easily taking him down into a leg lock. The good guys start in on the arm as Corey talks about Chad being able to dribble a bowling ball. Blake comes in and is quickly ridden down to the mat. Some rapid fire dropkicks (and a Ricky Morton reference) has the bad guys in trouble as Chad waits in the middle. A double dropkick puts Blake on the floor and we take a break.
Elias Samson song.
Christopher Girard vs. Apollo Crews
We look back at Carmella vs. Bayley from two weeks ago with Eva Marie and Nia Jax attacking until Asuka made the save.
Tommaso Ciampa vs. Bull Dempsey
Carmella/Bayley vs. Nia Jax/Eva Marie
Nia misses a charge and falls out to the floor though, allowing the hot tag to Bayley. The running elbows in the corner have Eva in trouble (like, more trouble than her trying to work a match) but Nia breaks up the cover off the Bayley to Belly. Carmella comes back in for her leg crossface with Nia making another save. Jax drops three straight legs on Carmella, allowing Eva to get the pin at 11:34.
Results
American Alpha b. Blake and Murphy – Grand Amplitude to Blake
Apollo Crews b. Christopher Girard – Helicopter Bomb
Tommaso Ciampa b. Bull Dempsey – Fujiwara Armbar
Eva Marie/Nia Jax b. Bayley/Carmella – Eva pinned Carmella after three legdrops from Jax
