VLNCE UNLTD (Brody King, Homicide, Tony Deppen) and Rocky Romero beat EC3, Eli Isom, Tyler Rust and "Hot Sauce" Tracy Williams in an eight-man tag match. After the match, EC3 says that today, we pay homage to the past, then asks Eli Isom to stand. EC3 takes Eli's hand and pulls him up, then says that they stand in a ring of honor yet there is no honor in what they do, and yet they do it for the fans. As he talks about how everyone gives their blood, sweat and tears while the corporate types keep their office jobs, he mentions Dak Draper and "The Mecca" Brian Johnson, who both show up. EC3 reminds Johnson that he has lost his job and his match tonight and that something like this makes someone like Johnson dangerous. He says that in order to free one's self, one must control their narrative. Suddenly, two men in hoodies show up on the ramp, one of them being Westin Blake (formerly Wesley Blake in WWE). EC3 says he knows what it has been like to be fired, and says that if Draper and Johnson can suffer for him physically, he can give them their freedom, but they have to fight. EC3 then says "Free The Titan," then Adam Scherr - formerly known as Braun Strowman in WWE - shows up and attacks everyone else in the ring alongside the two men in the hoodies.

Suddenly, the lights go out, and when they come back on, FTR (Dax Harwood and Cash Wheeler) are on the apron, and they get in the ring and brawl with The Briscoes. Security and backstage staff quickly move in to try to stop the brawl.
