Akira Tozawa vs Colin Delaney
Before the match could begin, Brian Kendrick and Jack Gallagher assaulted Delaney and Tozawa. Drew Gulak took a mic and said there will be no more peace on 205 Live until he gets his title rematch.
Gulak went on to say that Cedric Alexander was scared, and hid behind Drake Maverick, then demanded Alexander come out and accept his challenge.
Cedric came out and told Gulak that if Kendrick and Gallagher left, he'd come shut him up himself. As Cedric was held back by Maverick and refs, Gulak questioned what the Age of Alexander was. Gulak said that he's what is best for 205 Live, and asked when Alexander became such a choir boy.
