The finish to the match saw Gunther choke out Bill Goldberg to earn a technical submission victory over the 2018 WWE Hall of Famer. Moments earlier, the Austrian pushed Gage in the chest during a ringside altercation.

Speaking to Sportskeeda Wrestling Senior Editor Bill Apter, Gage revealed his dad was surprisingly calm a day after the event:

"Next day, sat out by the pool. He was chilling the next day, honestly. Actually, no, no, no. Yes, he was at the pool, but he was on the tractor mowing our lawn. That's just how this works. Back to normal day life." [3:46 – 4:10]
