The crowd chanted "both these guys" in appreciation of what they were about to witness. It didn't take them long to start firing all cylinders. Ricochet offered Johnny Gargano a hand, asking "which" Gargano we're going to see.

They slowed down a bit but work at a good pace, using more technical aspects of their game. Ricochet would land an incredible moonsault and got the crowd going. Ricochet had Gargano in Fireman's carry position but wasn't able to power him down. Gargano tried to hit a hurracanrana but Ricochet landed ON HIS FEET! Fans were stunned, with no idea how it happened.

Gargano made a seamless transition into the Gargano-escape but Ricochet manages to evade it. HE rolls out of the ring and Ricochet hit the most beautiful moonsault you'll ever see. Ricochet even hit the 450 splash but Gargano kicked out.

Gargano gets caught with a suicide dive but spikes Ricochet on the mat with a hurracanrana. Gargano removed the mat and was planning to spike Ricochet on exposed concrete. The referee threatened to DQ him, so he wisely chose to avoid it.

Gargano hit him with a suplex to the concrete then spiked him with a DDT in the ring to pin him.
