As the show drew to a close, AJ Styles and Karrion Kross worked a dark match that saw The Phenomenal One pick up a victory. It looks like The Phenomenal One will feud with The Doomwalker as we head into the summer.
Austin Theory appeared next, as the current United States Champion took on Rey Mysterio. The duo worked a match on Monday Night RAW earlier this year, which A-Town Down won.

However, this time around, the champion ate a pinfall loss to the Hall of Famer. While the bout was non-title, it won't be out of the realm of possibility that WWE books the two stars in a program heading into the summer.
