As he tried to set up another table, Briggs countered and hit a huge moonsault through a table of his own to win the barbaric match.

Masha Slamovich served as the special guest referee for the match, and her actions inadvertently gave the win to Fatal Influence.

Je’Von Evans is the No. 1 Contender for the NXT Championship after he defeated TNA World Champion Trick Williams.

Williams stunned everyone when he caught Evans on the top rope and sent him crashing through the announce table on the outside, compromising The Young OG for the rest of the match.

However, the TNA World Champion spotted Mike Santana in a luxury box, and that distraction allowed Evans to hit a cutter and a huge slam to become the No. 1 Contender.
