LA Knight is in the ring. Knight says he and Grayson Waller have been doing this since before Halloween Havoc when he beat Waller to become the host of that show, then put each other through hell at WarGames before Waller stole his car and tried to run him down. Afterwards, he beat the hell out of Waller in January only to get a restraining order and a bodyguard in Sanga, but even that was not enough to keep him away. As he mentions what happened last week, Waller and Sanga show up on the balcony. Waller brags about winning last week, then calls LA Knight a roadblock on his path to greatness. Grayson Waller tells the fans they all suck, and tries to leave only to be reminded Knight stood tall after he left him laying in the end. Knight says Waller is all about his social media popularity, but at the end of the day, he stands tall every time. Knight dares Waller to say he can leave him laying as he challenges him to a Last Man Standing Match. Waller says he will go viral next week and become last man standing, but Knight says he will leave Waller laying because he is not good enough.
