Mustafa Ali vs. Ariya Daivari
They lock up in the middle of the ring, but Daivari begs off and looks disgusted that he was even touched by him. Ali takes him down and goes for the legs, but Daivari again backs off and brushes off his boots in disgust. Finally the match gets underway with Ali hitting a shoulder tackle and a roll-up for two, followed by a bridge pin for another two-count. He transitions into a backslide pin, followed by a small package, but can’t pick up the quick win. Daivari throws him with an Irish whip, but Ali hits a dropkick that sends him to the floor and follows up with a suicide dive.
They brawl on the outside for a bit until Daivari drops him hard on the apron (did you know that’s the hardest part of the ring!?) to finally take control. He starts stomping on him and stalking Ali around the ring with kicks and chops. After several minutes Ali fires up and hits a step-up enzuigiri and a neckbreaker for two. He goes up top to finish off the match, but Drew Gulak comes out with an air horn and an anti-high flyer sign to distract him. Daivari takes advantage and hits a hammer lock lariat for the win.
Winner: Ariya Daivari
