“Gentleman” Jack Gallagher Toasts Austin Aries

Gallagher came out to the ring area and cut a promo regarding being jumped by TJP on Raw. He brought out Austin Aries, who gave a fan a banana peel on his way to the ring, to thank him for assisting him the night before.
This brought out Neville, who said Gallagher is a symptom of a larger problem: England has become a parody of itself. TJP attacked Gallagher & Aries from behind and a melee ensued. Eventually Aries & Gallagher gained the advantage, cleared the ring, and downed a couple of pints.

• Alicia Fox & Noam Dar ran into Rich Swann backstage, who was confused as to why Noam would still want to be with Alicia. Fox says she didn’t really leave Noam, not like she left Cedric and Swann. Dar warns Swann that he’ll be getting what he deserves. 

1. Tony Nese vs. Mustafa Ali

Ali hits a diving cannonball to the outside on Nese, and the camera cuts to Drew Gulak, who has been protesting high-flying moves as of late. Back and forth match, Nese using mainly power-movies, a torture rack, etc. but it was Ali who put it away with the inverted 450 splash for the win.
Winner: Mustafa Ali

• In the back, Ariya Davairi is talking about how expensive his shirt is when he runs into Tozawa, who says “ha!” at him until he goes away.
• We are showing a video package of former “Alicia Fox champion” Cedric Alexander, who will be returning to 205 Live shortly.

2. Akira Tozawa vs. the Brian Kendrick

Tozawa got the early advantage, sending Kendrick to the floor. On the outside Kendrick got the advantage again and hit Sliced Bread on the floor. Inside the ring however, Tozawa countered another Sliced Bread into a roll-up for the pin.
Winner: Akira Tozawa

• After the match, Kendrick attacked Tozawa, giving him a russian leg-sweep into the steps. He then put Tozawa under the top set of the stairs and stomped on him. Kendrick then said the last lesson he is ever going to give him is “don’t mess with the Brian Kendrick”. This might of been the blow-off to this feud.
