The Dark Order emerged without their leader but with a coffin, stating that they were burying former TNT Champion Cody and his entire Nightmare Family. After The Exalted One dismantled the former titleholder last week, Cody was nowhere to be seen, and the cult reveled in their victory. Brodie Lee then emerged from the back with the newly christened #99 of The Dark Order Anna Jay.

Lee declared that the time of the TNT Championship Open Challenge was over, saying that he didn’t have time to waste with indie wrestlers every week. Just as The Dark Order headed to the back, a group of Cody’s friends charged as the cult. The Nightmare family tried and failed, followed by Scorpio Sky and Matt Cardona. The latter pair were more successful, setting themselves up as probable challengers for the TNT Title, perhaps even at the upcoming PPV, All Out.
