We go backstage and The Miz is giving a pep talk to Sheamus and Cesaro. Miz is complaining about how Kurt Angle is purposely stealing their spotlight by making his comeback. Miz thinks he’s just doing this to get in the ring with The Miz and get some spotlight off his star power. Miz mocks Angle’s neck and bring in Braun Strowman. Strowman says he’s snuffing out Angle’s return to the ring. He’ll do all that as long as his partners stay out of his way. Kane walks in and says if anyone is going to wrap a chair around Angle’s neck, it’ll be him. The Miz, Sheamus, and Cesaro hold up their fists like The Shield.
Elias is on the stage to play Minnesota a little song and they don’t want to hear it. He starts to play but gets hit with some celery. Elias stops briefly before starting the song again, only to be hit with celery again, then some lettuce. The lights come up and it’s Jason Jordan with a shopping cart full of food. Jordan continues to bury Elias in food before turning and leaving, the crowd cheered pretty loud for that.
The Brian Kendrick & Jack Gallagher Vs. Cedric Alexander & Rich Swann
Rich Swann and Brian Kendrick start the match and The Man With A Plan takes control right away with some clubbing blows to the back. Swann escapes a snapmare with a handstand, only to be shoved into the turnbuckles and in comes Jack Gallagher.
Gallagher applies a leg submission, which I’ve never seen before, then the two exchange leap frogs and drops downs before tagging both of their partners. Cedric Alexander catches Kendrick with a handstand hurricanrana, then a dropkick and BK rolls from the ring. Alexander looks to follow-up with a senton of sorts but Gallagher trips him from the outside. Rich Swann then dives off of the apron and onto Gallagher.
Back inside the ring, Alexander chops Kendrick down and tags in Swann. Swann sends Kendrick to the corner and hits a running forearm. Swann then sends Kendrick into Alexander for a tilt-a-whirl backbreaker. Swann picks up a two count. Swann goes to the second rope and punches Gallagher away. Kendrick then rips him off the second rope. Gallagher tags in and stomps away at Swann. Gallagher then applies a neck vice, but Swann fights up. Gallagher quickly connects with a snapmare and rakes the face. Kendrick tags in and kicks Swann before hitting a butterfly suplex for a close two count.
Kendrick kicks at Swann’s ribs before applying a neck crank and ramming his head into the turnbuckle. Kendrick chokes him with his boot and tags Gallagher back in. Gallagher shoulders him in the ribs a few times and taunts Alexander. Gallagher knees Swann in the ribs and tags Kendrick back in. They go for a double-team, but Swann gets out and sends Kendrick out of the ring. Alexander tags in and clotheslines Gallagher before elbowing him in the face and hitting a handspring roundhouse for a near fall. Alexander hits a running shoulder and kicks him back. Alexander hits a springboard clothesline and covers, but Kendrick pulls him out of the ring to break the fall.
Swann tries to leap off of the steps with an attack but Kendrick floors him with a northern lights suplex. Kendrick gets in the ring and superkicks Alexander before applying the Captain’s Hook. Alexander rolls through and keeps the Captain’s Hook applied. Swann then takes Kendrick out with a Phoenix Splash. Gallagher gets in the ring, and Swann superkicks him. Gallagher hits a desperation head-butt, and they both fall out of the ring. Alexander then hits a Lumbar Check on Kendrick for the win.
