All four men then end up in the ring as they each take each other out, with Breakker coming out on top by launching Hayes into the air and catching him with a cutter. Corbin then shows his strength by taking Hayes out with a huge clothesline, which turns him inside out. Breakker comes in and then drops Hayes with a huge lariat before connecting with a suplex, but rather than going for the pinfall he opts to do a few push-ups. 

Hayes almost catches Corbin out with a roll-up when he tags in, but that leads to Breakker returning as Corbin throws Hayes up as he gets caught and slammed to the mat by Breakker. He then consistently stops Hayes from tagging to Williams, but eventually, it happens and he nails both Corbin and Breakker with big spinning kicks and then a flat liner to Corbin. Williams jams his knee slightly but then connects with the Urinagi to Corbin which gets a near fall.

Hayes comes back with a springboard moonsault which gets another near fall as Corbin hangs in. Breakker tags in but gets sent into the top turnbuckle as Williams and Hayes throw Corbin out of the ring. Breakker throws Hayes into Williams' arms and then grabs the big man and throws him across the ring which sends both his opponents flying as he then helps Corbin dive out of the ring onto both of them. 

Corbin hits a Deep Six onto both of his opponents, with Breakker then hitting a huge moonsault to the outside which wipes out both men. The Wolf Dogs head to the top turnbuckle with a man each, but Hayes and Williams fight back and drop them down. Williams hits Corbin with a neckbreaker, but Breakker then charges in with a Spear to Hayes and picks up the win when Hayes tries to save his partner, which accidentally sends him out of the ring, stopping him from breaking the pinfall. 

Winners: Bron Breakker & Baron Corbin

Dijak vs. Joe Gacy (No Disqualification Match)

Dijak pulls out a nightstick to start while Joe Gacy also pulls out a weapon, but neither man uses them as they end up just brawling instead. Gacy launches Dijak out of the ring and then dives out to attack him again as he then starts pulling out a variety of weapons. He takes too long though and Dijak attacks him only for Gacy to slam the bigger man onto the steel stairs repeatedly.

Dijak gets set onto a chair as Gacy then runs and launches himself off the stairs to hit a cannonball. Gacy slams Dijak back onto the stairs before setting up a table outside the ring which he adds a ton of small toys onto, but he's not able to implement his plan as Dijak hits a spinning boot. He places Gacy inside a trash can and repeatedly kicks him, and then hits an elbow drop, but Gacy continues to sit up even with the weapon on his head. 

Dijak attempts to run at Gacy, but he uses the can to his advantage as he spears Dijak. He then tries to leap into the ring, but Gacy pushes Dijak back out and he crashes through the table and toys. However, back inside the ring, Gacy runs into a Chokeslam, with Dijak planting him onto a chair. They then fight up to the top turnbuckle, wth Gacy coming out on top by suplexing him down to the mat.

He rips off the tape only to be DDT'd onto a chair as Gacy follows up with a Splash, but Dijak kicks out. Gacy looks for Upside Down, but Dijak hits him with a nightstick and then delivers another Feast Your Eyes for the win.

Winner: Dijak

The Family turns up from behind and attacks their opponents as the fight unfolds early on. The men all brawl outside the ring while Adriano Rizzo and Jaida Parker brawl inside it.

Rizzo gets launched into Parker with a cannonball, with The Family then isolating Nima. Scrypts causes a distraction on the outside though, which allows OTM to take advantage with Price choking out Stacks as he and Nima then run and deliver forearms at the same time. 

Stacks tries to fight out of OTM's corner, and while he almost reaches D'Angelo, Price pulls him back and sends him to the floor as Scrypts attacks him once again. OTM looks for a double team, but Stacks turns things around and D'Angelo comes in to clean house as Price gets dropped on his head while Nima then gets thrown across the ring as well. D'Angelo tries to keep up the attack but gets slapped by Parker which leads to Rizzo charging in and sending her opponent out of the ring.

She sends Valkyria flying from the top turnbuckle and then hits Pop Rocks. However, Lola Vice then comes down to the ring with her guaranteed contract and she cashes it in and turns this into a triple threat. Vice catches Valkyria with a kick, but Perez then gets a roll up only for Vice to respond with one of her own. She then catches Perez with a chokehold as she starts fading in the middle of the ring, but Perez bounces off the turnbuckles into a pinfall attempt to get out.

Vice unleashes a flurry of kicks to each opponent as they sit in the corner which leads to Vice hitting hip attacks to each. However, she goes to the well too many times as Perez avoids the next one and she then hits a Russian leg sweep/DDT combo to take down both of her opponents. 

Perez picks up the pace with a dive outside to each woman as she then heads to the top turnbuckle and hits a high crossbody, but Valkyria rolls through and hits Night Wish.
