Commentators: Tony Schiavone, Nigel McGuinness

It seems to be the final edition of this show and really, I’m not expecting much of a loss. As usual, the card was thrown together at the last minute and in this case we have one title match, which was set up less than a day ago. Other than that, we have a match to see if someone gets a future title shot, because that’s what this show has become. Let’s get to it.

We open with the Blackpool Combat Club beating down Top Flight and Action Andretti after successfully defending the Trios Titles against them on Collision. Cue the Dark Order with chairs for the save, so Jon Moxley tells the Order to get in the ring and get a shot at the titles right now.

Trios Titles: Dark Order vs. Blackpool Combat Club

The Club is defending. Castagnoli stomps Silver down in the corner to start and it’s off to Yuta who keeps up the hammering. Silver’s chops just annoy Castagnoli and it’s the Fastball Special for two, with Uno making the save. Silver punches his way out of trouble and hands it off to Reynolds, with his rather taped up ribs. Castagnoli shrugs off the comeback and puts on a Sharpshooter, with a stomp from Pac being enough to make Reynolds give up at 5:08.

Result: Blackpool Combat Club b. Dark Order – Sharpshooter to Reynolds (5:08)

Post match the beating continues with Top Flight, Action Andretti, Private Party and Daniel Garcia making the save. Orange Cassidy comes out as well but doesn’t go very far.

Continental Title: Kazuchika Okada vs. Kyle O’Reilly

Okada is defending. They go to the mat to start with Okada working on a headlock. Back up and Okada hits him in the face. O’Reilly takes him down into an ankle lock but Okada quickly escapes as we take an early break. Back with Okada cutting off a comeback with a single uppercut and mockingly kicking away.

O’Reilly strikes away again and takes him down with a DDT on the arm. We switch up the limbs with a dragon screw legwhip over the ropes before O’Reilly grabs a kneebar. Okada strikes his way to freedom and comes back with an Air Raid Crash onto the knee and we take another break.

Back again with both of them pulling themselves up at the fifteen (out of twenty) minute call. O’Reilly reverses a Tombstone attempt into the ankle lock, with Okada bailing over to the ropes. Okada misses the Rainmaker but hits the dropkick, only to get pulled into the guillotine. That’s broken up as well and the Rainmaker retains the title at 18:22.

Result: Kazuchika Okada b. Kyle O’Reilly – Rainmaker (18:22)

Video on Mariah May vs. Anna Jay.

La Faccion Ingobernable attacks Hologram, with Rush promising that if you mess with the bull, you get the hearns.

Don Callis Family vs. Jack Cartwheel/Jon Cruz

Brian Cage/Lance Archer for the Family as we now have a non-title squash match on the show. Cage knocks Cartwheel into the corner to start but Cruz isn’t about to tag in. That doesn’t work for Cage, who makes Cartwheel tag him, allowing Archer to come in with a snap suplex. A powerbomb/chokeslam combination plants Cartwheel and a Blackout/powerbomb combination finishes Cruz at 2:37.

Result: Don Callis Family b. Jack Cartwheel/Jon Cruz – Blackout/powerbomb combination to Cruz (2:37)

The Undisputed Kingdom isn’t happy with the changes the Beast Mortos has made, including wearing a polo shirt. They’re not sad, but just disappointed.

Anna Jay vs. Mariah May

Non-title. They trade wrist control to start before May’s headlocks are countered with headscissors. Back up and Jay fires off some knees to the ribs but May sends her throat first into the middle rope. Some hair tosses have Jay down again and a very spinning side slam gives May two as we take a break.

Back with May working on the arm but Jay fights up with a Sling Blade. A German suplex gives Jay two and the Queenslayer goes on, with May biting the arm for the escape. May’s hanging DDT gets two but she has to escape the Gory Bomb. Instead, Jay pulls her into a cradle for the pin at 12:07.

Result: Anna Jay b. Mariah May – Cradle (12:07)
