Match highlights included an intense opening exchange between Roode and Mahal that nearly saw The Modern Day Maharaja suffer a Glorious DDT that was anything but peaceful, Fox avoiding The Queen of Harts’ Sharpshooter before grounding her third-generation opponent with a vicious attack that included a beautiful bridge suplex, and Fox getting so caught up in Shanti that she allowed Roode to tag back into the action. Then, in the final moments of the contest, The Singh Brothers and Fox emerged to attempt a distraction. And while Natalya took care of Fox and The Glorious One laid out the Singhs, the commotion allowed Mahal to hit the Khallas for the huge victory.
