The crowd was divided between their hatred of Cardona and SDL and their support for Kasey. Brandon and Matt engaged in a lock-up, with Brandon backing Matt into a corner. Matt rolled out of the ring, prompting a loud chant for Chelsea. Cardona toyed with the crowd, engaging in playful banter. An elderly man confronted Cardona and threw punches at him, leading to a chant of “fuck ’em up, grandpa.” Kasey and SDL tagged in, and Kasey unleashed a flurry of chops. SDL tagged Cardona back in, and Kasey dominated him for a while before Brandon reentered the match to continue the assault. They retreated to the outside, and Cardona grabbed a microphone to announce a change in match rules, declaring it was no longer a sports entertainment match. He proceeded to break a tube on the ground while Kirk and Ge brawled in the crowd. Kirk held Cardona’s arms, allowing Grandpa to land some shots on him, which sent the crowd into a frenzy. Brandon attempted a running cross-body, but SDL slammed him into the second row. Kirk managed to return to the ring before the ten-count but was prevented from making a tag to Kasey as SDL cut him off and attacked him in their corner. Cardona arrogantly slapped Kasey off the apron, but he was caught off guard by a cutter from Brandon as both teams made quick tags to their partners. Kasey unleashed a flurry of offense on SDL, attempting to secure a pinfall, but Cardona broke it up. SDL pummeled Brandon, and both SDL and Cardona executed tandem boot scrapes. SDL attempted to hit Cardona with the women’s internet championship, but Kasey blocked it. Kasey struck Cardona and then accidentally struck the referee. Kasey followed up with a code breaker and got a visual pinfall. Brandon introduced four steel chairs into the ring, still covered in glass from the previous day, and set up Cardona for the psycho driver. However, SDL delivered a low blow to Brandon and kicked Kasey before hitting Brandon with a DVD onto the chairs. Kasey was about to strike Matt in the head with a chair, but Cardona countered with a low blow. SDL struck Kasey in the head with her Women’s Internet Title belt and pinned Kasey for the victory.

They began the match with a lock-up, but Joey quickly escaped with a standing switch as they exchanged arm kicks. Despy attempted to push Janela into the barbed wire door, but Janela countered with a shoulder tackle and dropkicked Despy into the door. Despy had to be freed from the wire, allowing Janela to unleash stomps and a brainbuster. Janela started tearing at Despy’s mask and used a strand of barbed wire to cut into his forehead. He then brought a board with broken glass into the ring while Despy recovered. Janela forced Despy chest-first into the wire, trapping him momentarily. Janela went for a brainbuster on the glass board, but Despy blocked it and slammed Janela onto the board instead. Despy grabbed a gusset plate, attempting to drive it into Janela’s head, but Janela fought back and struck Despy with it, followed by a superkick. Despy eventually succeeded in slamming a gusset plate into Janela’s head as they traded forearm strikes and chops in the center of the ring. Janela leveled Despy with a powerful lariat and a brainbuster, but both men were too exhausted to capitalize, and they collapsed together. Janela rolled to the outside and introduced a door into the ring, setting it up as a bridge. However, before he could utilize it, Despy targeted Janela’s leg with repeated dragon screws. Despy climbed the top rope and executed a frog splash on Janela, but it only garnered a two-count. The battle for control continued, with Janela countering a powerbomb attempt with a falcon arrow. Janela climbed the top rope for a double stomp, but Despy evaded it and drove Janela face-first with a driver. Janela retaliated by delivering an air raid crash to Despy on the apron, taking a moment to plot his next move, which involved a barbed wire door and a giant ladder. They continued to brawl on the outside, and Janela eventually rolled Despy back into the ring, setting up a door bridge and placing the ladder. Janela leaped off the ladder with a double stomp, but it still wasn’t enough to put Despy away. Janela grabbed a collection of tubes and shattered them over Despy’s head. Despy, however, regained his footing and engaged in a punch exchange with Janela before breaking more tubes. Janela responded with his own tube shots and a superkick. He then positioned a bundle in the center of the ring, but Despy fought out of it and hit Janela with two consecutive tiger drivers for the victory.

Rina was firmly in control as she gathered broken pieces of the pane of glass and put it in Masha’s mouth and punched her.
