Ever-Rise and Curt Stallion vs Ariya Daivari and The Bollywood Boyz on 205 Live
Curt Stallion was turned inside out by the 205 Live OG Ariya Daivari with a kitchen sink knee to the gut. A throat chop set up for a back suplex. Stallion stunned Daivari with a dropkick, leading to Samir Singh tagging in.
Matt Martel was in next and took out both Singh Brothers as Sunil tagged in with a double clothesline. A backbreaker/knee tremble combo from Ever-Rise nearly took Sunil out. Chase Parker tagged Stallion in, who really worked well with Martel and Parker. The three men moved in and out of the match, hitting a series of tag team maneuvers.
Martel again tagged in but was forced into his opponent's corner. Samir tagged in just as Sunil was dropped with an inverted atomic drop. For the first time in this match, The Bollywood Boyz was actually in control. Sunil tagged in, even though Daivari reached for it first.
The Singhs completely avoided the 205 Live Veteran, which could hinder their success later. A diving bulldog from Samir planted Martel. However, Martel was able to get back in the match by sending Samir's chest first into the top turnbuckle. Samir hooked Martel's leg, though, which kept him from getting the tag while bringing Sunil back in the match.
Daivari demanded to be tagged and had to hit a back slap tag to make it happen. Matt Martel countered a neck breaker, and both men ran into one another with a pair of clotheslines. Curt Stallion and Samir were the legal men next, and The Lonestar of 205 Live lit up Samir with his own unique combination.
The double foot trapped DDT spiked Samir for a near fall. Matt Martel and Chase Parker tagged in, dishing out their own unique brand of pain on Singh. Martel even allowed Stallion to take part in their Ever-Rise patented leg trip/elbow drop combo.
Stallion looked to finish things off, but Daivari took the bullet for Singh. Daivari was tired of the games The Singhs have been playing in the 205 Live main event, though, and attempted to leave. As The Bollywood Boyz and Daivari bickered on the floor, Ever-Rise yanked the ropes down for a Fosbury Flop from Stallion.
Back in the ring, Samir Singh was caught by Ever-Rise's double flapjack on the ropes. Stallion followed up with the running headbutt for the win.
Results: Curt Stallion and Ever-Rise defeated The Bollywood Boyz and Ariya Daivari via pinfall on 205 Live.
