Then the second one took place when the Uso’s hit a Doomsday Samoan Spike on Kofi Kingston. The conclusion came about after the Young Bucks hit the BTE Trigger on Xavier Woods and then laid Jey Uso out with a Meltzer Driver onto Woods which led to the pin.

V
House of Black w Brody King & Julia Hart
Finally the main event was a four way tag team match to determine the inaugural PPW World Tag Team Champions. It saw Judgment Day, FTR, The Young Bucks and the House of Black face off. At any given point in the match’s duration there were four men in the ring, one from each of the four competing teams with tags being necessary. The match began with the quartet of Damian Priest, Dax Harwood, Nick Jackson and Buddy Matthews, Priest brawled with Matthews while Harwood did the same with Jackson. There were several near falls and Priest was an absolute beast when he was the last man standing and then as the trio of Matthews, Harwood and Jackson rolled out of the ring he wasted little time in tagging in Mysterio and then dove out on top of the three men.
Eventually the trio of Malakai Black, Matt Jackson and Cash Wheeler joined Dominick Mysterio in the ring and brawled amongst themselves for another fifteen minutes. The end of the match saw Black and Wheeler take themselves out of the running by brawling through the ropes and to ringside where they were joined by Matthews and Harwood respectively. In all the confusion of Priest and Matt Jackson joining the brawl, this allowed Rhea Ripley to sneak into the ring and lay Nick out with the Riptide. Which allowed Mysterio to climb up to the top rope and hit a Frog Splash for the pin.
