Mark Coffey with Wolfgang vs Rohan Raja with Teoman
Mark Coffey took the early advantage with mixture of power and technical wrestling until Raja forced them to the ropes where he trapped the arm of Coffey, Raja then begins to systematically target Coffey’s arm. Coffey tries to power through the pain as he looked to get back into the match with a big clothesline, shoulder block and middle rope diving bulldog but a big spine buster from Raja cut him off, Raja goes for the pin following a back stabber but Coffey kicked out. Raja missed the double knees as Coffey got out of the corner and Raja crashed and burned before then being hit by a running enziguri to the face from Coffey who followed up with a running sliding elbow stunning Raja long enough to get the pin fall.
Post match Teoman and Raja attacked Coffey and Wolfgang having to be broken up by referees and staff from the back, so although the Gallus boys picked up the win it was Teoman and Raja who left Coffey and Wolfgang laying in the ring.
