Cannonball by Marshall and a picture-perfect moonsault off the top to Truth. Claw by Ross! Claw by Marshall! Double pins.
Winners: The Von Erichs
Rating: *3/4. This was… there. Punches and kicks until a pair of claws.
It’s a melee to close the show as everyone on the show has hit the ring, starting with the Undisputed Kingdom, as we go off the air… for some reason.
Final Thoughts: Solid opening match and then the entire show just fell off. I know the show was taped over a week ago but the whole show felt out of place. At least The Conglomeration got a win. 5.5/10.
