Mustafa Ali vs. Chris Bey
The match kicked off with a series of arm wringers between Bey and Ali, with Ali initially gaining the upper hand by locking in a tight headlock. This led to a fast-paced exchange culminating in Ali delivering a massive back elbow. However, the momentum shifted when Bey responded with several sharp chops to Ali’s chest and a devastating clothesline that flipped Ali over.
As the action intensified, Ali briefly regained control, only to be met with a sudden DDT from Bey. The match’s pace didn’t let up, with Ali cleverly using the ropes to his advantage, Not to be outdone, Bey mounted a comeback, trapping Ali in the corner and executing a breathtaking coast-to-coast Elbow.
The battle saw multiple near-falls, with Ali attempting to secure a win by putting his feet on the ropes, only for Ace Austin to intervene. Ali’s security at ringside created a distraction, allowing him to take down Ace with a high-flying dive outside the ring. Bey mirrored this with a dive of his own.
Ali absorbed a superkick but fought back, attempting a powerbomb that Bey countered by dropping him on his head. With the intensity at its peak, Bey ascended the top rope, only to be dragged down by Ali into a punishing German Suplex on the apron. Although Bey dodged Ali’s 450 Splash attempt and countered with a Cutter, interference from Ali’s security turned the tide. With the referee distracted, a flag shot from one of Ali’s allies allowed Ali to finally land the 450 Splash and steal the victory.

The fight quickly spilled outside the traditional confines of a wrestling match.

However, Deaner seized an opportunity to turn the tables, shoving Hammerstone into the post and leveling him with a chair. The match continued to escalate with Hammerstone executing a devastating Backbreaker and using the chair to assault Deaner further, culminating in a brutal Fallaway Slam.
Despite the relentless offense from Hammerstone, the Vegas crowd’s support rekindled Deaner’s resolve, leading to a fiery comeback. He attempted a bodyslam on Hammerstone, but the size and strength disparity proved too much. Yet, Deaner’s perseverance paid off as he eventually managed to execute a massive bodyslam on Hammerstone onto the chair.
The crowd electrified, chanted for a table, prompting Deaner to introduce one into the match. However, Hammerstone quickly regained control, launching Deaner and delivering a thunderous Chokeslam through the table. Hammerstone then secured the win with a torturous Torture Rack, refusing to release the hold even after the victory, which led to Jake Something making a dramatic save. He cleared the top rope and tackled Hammerstone, prompting security to intervene and desperately try to separate the two colossal competitors.
