The match kicked off with some chain wrestling until Ali managed to connect with a hurricanrana. Alexander looked to work on the midsection, but Ali retorted with a flurry of strikes and a bronco buster.

The two competitors traded a surprising amount of ground offense until Ali got out of the doldrums with a flurry of lariats. Alexander connected with a European uppercut but ate a spinning wheel kick for his troubles.

Alexander then hit a Spanish Fly but couldn't capitalise by pinning Ali. He looked for the lumbar check, only to eat a top-rope Spanish Fly.

After putting Ali under some pressure, Alexander began to show signs of frustration and began to stomp his foes head on the canvas. Ali managed to hit a reverse Frankensteiner before following up with the 054, only Alexander to get a foot on the rope.

Alexander managed to escape a second 054 before connecting with a pair of spinning elbows and a lumbar check for the win.
