It’s all about momentum as Brian Myers locks up with Frankie Kazarian! Myers bounces off the ropes and Kazarian hits him with the side Russian leg sweep. Kazarian connects with a DDT for two. Myers trips him up as Kazarian crashes and burns in the corner. Myers remains in control with an Enzuigiri to the back of the head.

Sabin soars with a crossbody off the top rope. The Guns are in total control as they employ quick tags and begin to wear Bey down. Minutes later, Bey avoids the incoming assault which sends Sabin colliding into his own partner. Ace is tagged into the match and the pace quickens as he takes down both Sabin and Shelley with a springboard dropkick. ABC hit a dropkick neckbreaker combo on Sabin but it’s not enough. Another miscommunication for the Guns leads to a double Art of Finesse from Bey. Sabin hits Bey with a cutter before connecting with an assisted low dropkick on Ace. Near fall after near fall, the Guns can’t put ABC away. ABC hit the 1, 2 Sweet on Shelley, then the same to Sabin to retain the IMPACT World Tag Team Titles.
