The Undisputed Elite show up for the first time in months and head to the ring. Adam Cole says it feels good to be back in the ring, especially with the rest of The Undisputed Elite.

As Fish wraps a chair around Matt Jackson's head and Cole is about to stomp on it, "Hangman" Adam Page runs into the ring with a pipe and chases Cole, O'Reilly and Fish away before helping Matt Jackson up.
