Texano uses his rope as a weapon on both of his opponents. Fantasma hits EC3 with a top rope crossbody for a near fall. He hits the ropes when his own partner, Texano, trips him!

Backstage: Eli Drake, Dutch Mantel, Scott D’amore, Jim Cornette

Backstage, Eli Drake is on the phone. Dutch Mantel interrupts him and asks why he was neglecting his media and marketing obligations last week. Drake says if the company wants marketing material from him; just plaster his face and the Global title everywhere. Drake resumes his phone call where he tells someone that it may be time for them to come back.

Dutch Mantel, Scott D’amore and Jim Cornette discuss Eli Drake’s behaviour backstage. Cornette and Mantel agree they should hold his pay until he fulfills his duties but Scott disagrees because the show can’t go on without the champion.
