Jeff Hardy gave his opponent Elias a treat of his own medicine. As the Superstars faced off against each other, things got intense. Although Elias emerged “victorious,” it was Hardy who got the revenge.
Elias performed another song right before the match, again insisting that Hardy hit him with a car months ago, injuring him. However, it was proved that Hardy had nothing to do with the accident.

As the match began, Elias dominated in the nascent stages. He hit a sit-out powerbomb from an electric chair position for a near fall.
Later, Hardy came back with a Whisper in the Wind for a close two-count. Hardy tried to follow it up with a Twist of Fate, but Elias ran from the ring when Hardy went up top for the Swanton.
Elias grabbed his guitar outside the ring, but Hardy took it from him and smashed it across Elias’ back. As a result, Elias won via disqualification.
