The match started like a car wreck. Penta somersaulted over the ropes to hit Mysterio and Balor. Breakker then jumped onto Balor’s back to punch Penta in the head. Breakker was the target of all of his opponents all match long as he was the champion and the strongest one in the ring.

Penta’s acrobatics gave him and advantage – at least in the short term. Breakker’s ability to recover quick was crucial. He put Penta and Balor into a German suplex in one of the top moments of the match early.

Breakker’s miss on Penta left the door open for Mysterio to take control. In shades of Eddie Guerrero, he put Penta through a series of suplexes with help from his Judgment Day stablemate Balor. Doing that to Breakker was not going to be easy.

Breakker countered and suplexed both Balor and Mysterio simultaneously. The straps were off. Breakker nailed Balor with a Frankensteiner but got caught taking too much time. It was Mysterio and Balor left in the ring.
