1. Akira Tozawa vs. The Brian Kendrick
Tozawa started the match by chasing Kendrick and going on offence. Kendrick got some offence in too but his normal tricks weren’t working this match. In fact, Tozawa would use one of Kendrick’s lessons against him by faking an injury and then rolling up Kendrick for the 3-count. After the match he let Kendrick know that Tozawa was now the one teaching the lessons.
Winner: Akira Tozawa
2. Oney Lorcan vs. Rich Swann
Lorcan charged right out from the beginning and spend the majority of the match on offence. Swann wasn’t able to sustain any kind of attack until the very end when he hit some kicks and a phoenix splash for the win. After the match Swann admitted he is the one who has been sending Alicia Fox gifts every week. Noam Dar was unable to respond as he is currently out with an injury.
Winner: Rich Swann
