Besides Ricochet’s surprise appearance, this event was also notable for Ricky Starks defeating KENTA to become the new DEFY World Champion.
The ending to this match featured KENTA hitting a GoToSleep to Starks for a near fall that was followed by Starks hitting a Roshambo for the pinfall victory to become the new champion.
