Winners: Kenny Omega & “Hangman” Adam Page
Everyoe slowly gets to their feet in the ring and The Bucks talk to Kenny but Page isn’t interested. The Bucks invite him into the centre of the ring but he turns his back on them and leans on the ropes. Page nods at them before leaving, but then sets his belt down on the ramp, and looks like he’s going to hit Omega with a Buckshot Lariat but Omega turns around and stares at him. Page then sits on the middle rope to help Kenny out and hugs him. Page takes a beer from a fan as they head to the back.
