Winners – Bobby Roode & Kazarian

Austin Aries says last week it was Sting, and this week it's Bobby Roode asking him for help, but he's getting a mixed reaction. He says they might have cost him points in the Bound For Glory Series, but on the other hand, it's good to take advantage of the numbers game. Aries says he's not sure what he'll do because it's a lot to think about, but everyone will have his answer before the night is over.

Sonjay Dutt vs Manik

Manik charges the ring and hiptosses Dutt, then he puts him in a standing octopus submission before applying an armbar. Dutt hits the ropes and hiptosses Manik, then he goes for a thrust kick but Manik ducks, so he hits a standing moonsault instead. Dutt puts him in a straight jacket choke, then whips him into the ropes but Manik holds the ropes and sends Dutt outside. Manik dives on him and rolls him back in, then he hits a springboard dropkick and sets up a double underhook slam. Dutt blocks it so Manik powerbombs him, but Dutt comes back with an exploder suplex and springboard splash. Dutt goes up top but Manik avoids a moonsault, then he avoids a strike and kicks Dutt before hitting a double chicken wing gutbuster for the win.

Winner – Manik
