Swerve promo: the biggest mistake I made was trying to be something everyone else wanted me to be. Swerve is confidence? That’s not me. Swerve is a savage. A dangerous man. It only seems right that I recruit some people who think how I do. Starting with TOP DOLLA. He says I make TOP DOLLA EVERY DAY. He raps a bit. Adonis speaks says you might get world star’d if you come across him. B-Fab speaks, talks about rapping on tour with Juicy J.

Zoey Stark promo on Toni Storm- says she was a global star, but she started talking. She doesn’t like me cuz I’m hungrier than her. Next week is our rematch, it won’t be an upset, it’ll be a win for me, cuz Storm faces a wrestling machine.

Santos wrecks Kushida much of this first fall, he hits a rana from the top, K rolls through for a 2 count, handspring back elbow, basement dropkick, Kushida has control, Santos hits a phantom driver out of nowhere for 3 for the first fall
SANTOS 1-0
Oh, I like this, they were supposed to go to break, but Vic yelled at the truck NOT to cut away as Kushida locked in the HBL and Santos tapped out.
KUSHIDA 1 Santos 1
They trade pins, each getting 2, similar to when K won the title, then trade clotheslines
Kushida gets Santos up top, does the HBL thing to the bottom, gets Santos in the middle of the ring, Santos claws to the rope, gets it, Kushida lets do, he puts it back on, Santos battles, K suplexes him into the corner, hooks Santos’ arms, suplexes with a bridge for 3 god DAM that was a great match
