Tough guy Finn Balor says it'll be the end when he fights O'Reilly again.

They slap each others chest and backs and Storm kicks Ripley into the ring post.

Storm and Ripley exchange no pleasantries and try to one-up each other.

Main event time. Toni Storm and her weird walk against Rhea Ripley.

We also had Swerve Scott sidestepping the question as to why he didn't shake Jake Atlas' hand last week after losing. Sounds like another match is coming between the two.

Kross hits one suplex and then a Doomsday Saito. Puts Troy in the Kross Jacket and that's a wrap.
Result: Karrion Kross defeats Desmond Troy by submission.

Poor Desmond Troy is the sacrificial lamb for Kross. He immediately bludgeons Troy from the mount position.

The Colossal Bronson Reed returns next week. Time for Karrion Kross!

Unbelievable match. From start to finish @KORCombat and @PeteDunneYxB tore the house down.

Shotzi attempts a flip onto Hartwell in the corner but Hartwell gets the upper hand.

The rest of The Way stays ringside during the match. Shotzi is going to need some back up.

After the unsettling vignette featuring Li and Boa, next up is Indi Hartwell vs. Shotzi Blackheart. And her flippin' tank.

The master tells them to keep going. Again! Again! Again. We pan out and see that Li is being forced to kick Boa in the chest. And punch him in the face.

Back from ads and we resume the Xia Li storyline. She's crying but is being told to keep going.
