Frankie Kazarian returned to action and kicked off the match with an aggressive collar and elbow tie-up with Tucker. Then, Kaz executed a nice front drop toehold before moving to the headlock.

Kazarian connected with two thudding chops followed by a couple of arm drags. However, Frankie kept it technical and managed to ground Jake for the majority of the match.

Kazarian softened Tucker up with three forearm shots to the back before executing a snap suplex. Tucker got some offense in after a reversal and performed an excellent running bulldog for a one-count.

Jake dropped Kaz with two stiff hammer throws in the corner. Tucker, however, missed the running splash as Kazarian followed up with a powerful clothesline.

Kazarian was done playing around, and he locked in the Crossface Chickenwing for the win.
