Another entertaining match where the crowd was really invested into the in-ring action. One of the highlights of the match was the instance when the fans chanted “use the book” to the ‘Man Scout” Manning. He literally sat in a corner and flipped the pages of his Boy Scout book. ‘The Big Guy’ pinned Manning following a Shell Shock.

In the closing moments of the match, Cody slipped out of his boot to escape the Ankle lock and covered Angle in the Small package for the three count.

After the match, Cody told the fans that it was an honour to share the ring with Kurt Angle. He also invited Angle to join the Bullet Club if he doesn’t “like it where he was going”. The 2017 WWE Hall of Fame inductee, Angle then thanked the Waterbury crowd for attending the event.
