It went over 40 minutes but this was just incredible to watch as WALTER and Tyler Bate told the perfect big-man, little-man story in their match. The crowd popped huge went Bate hit the first successful bodyslam. Bate went for a tope but WALTER countered by powerbombing against the ring post as officials came out to check on him. This is where WALTER took control as he used vicious chops, applied a Boston Crab and a three-quarter nelson.

Bate showed that he had the heart of a champion as he made a comeback which included using an airplane spin and a Burning Hammer. Bate delivered his signature Tyler Driver and a corkscrew dive but couldn't put WALTER away. WALTER hit a super splash but Bate refused to stay down. The same move WALTER used to defeat Pete Dunne to win the WWE United Kingdom Title at TakeOver: New York.

WALTER finally put Bate away after delivering a massive running lariat for the win. This was the perfect finish as you didn't feel disappointed that Bate lost because he battled till the end and refused to quit. Just a tremendous pro wrestling match.
