Ricochet vs. Slapjack
This match was interesting considering the interruptions that occurred throughout. Both the Superstars were taking shots at each other, trying to secure the victory.
Mustafa Ali, the leader of Retribution, summoned T-Bar and Mace to help their fellow faction member, Slapjack. Ricochet realized this and took both of them down. As Ali tried to bring Slapjack’s attention back to the ring, Dana Brooke entered and slapped Ali.
