Referee: Chris Kay

The match:
I’m not going to bother with details here, because what does it really matter? It’s an undercard tag team squash, with two guys who’s best days are behind them, and two guys who aren’t likely going anywhere soon. Gymini basically takes Funaki apart, he makes a hot tag to Scotty, Scotty gets about 10 seconds of offence in before getting pinned.

Winner: The Gymini
