Matanza was least interested in the top title of the company and instead, uttered just one word when asked what he wanted; Mysterio! The segment ended with the shot of Mysterio’s question mark entrenched in blood on the wall.

A huge leap off the top rope by Hitoriki onto Pentagon elicited a holy Sh** chant from the believers. The high-flying onslaught didn't stop there as she took him down with a suicide dive. She continued the dominance by clobbering Pentagon with the steel chair.
