The match cannot be referred to as just a match. It was a physically dominating war between two champions, where one put everything on the line while the other wanted to take everything. It was the ultimate battle of champions.
First, it was Christian who dominated the match. He put Omega into the barricade and followed it with a brutal plancha.
However, Omega did not let the domination last, and he turned the tables with a table. After putting down Cage, he put a table on him and stomped on it, breaking into two halves. But this wasn’t enough to keep Christian Cage down.

Now it was time for the interference. As Don Callis watched from ringside, he brought in reinforcements for Omega. On his signal, The Good Brothers came out to Omega’s aid. To keep Omega from getting disqualified, Callis kept the referee busy. But Christian Cage, quick as a cat, put down Doc Gallows.
