Mike Kanellis was interviewed backstage. He picked up his first solo win in quite some time, defeating Tony Nese in singles competition. Some believe that loss led to Nese's betrayal of the fans, Oney Lorcan, Humberto Carrillo, and Lince Dorado last week when he joined the Cruiserweight Champion Drew Gulak and beat down his two contenders for the title.
Even though he got the win, Kanellis was verbally run down by his wife Maria, who said that the win he got last week didn't matter, as it was only earned by taking advantage of Nese. She left, claiming that if that's how he wants to do things, maybe she doesn't need to be here.
