Finn Balor vs Johnny Gargano vs Tommaso Ciampa vs Adam Cole 60 Minute Iron Man Match

Click here for the spoiler for this match. We’ll just keep up with the main points so this isn’t a Grapes Of Wrath sized summary.

They all took their time and got to have fresh competitors come in to make sure nobody got too tired early on. There were no real pinfall attempts as they just wore each other down.

Later on, Balor got another close two could after nailing a 1916 on Gargano. Then Balor hit a shotgun dropkick and scaled the top rope to miss a Coup De Gras. Tommaso planted Balor for a two count.

The action was constant with one move after another. They cut to commercial. Twenty minutes, and no pinfalls so far.
