After the bell, Riddle challenged MVP to a match, and he accepted. MVP wasn’t dressed to compete, but he still controlled the match early on. Riddle drilled MVP with a kick, and he rocked him with a knee to the head. Riddle kicked Lashley at ringside, but the champion blasted him with a Spear. The referee called for the bell while Lashley continued to attack Riddle.
