Omega was tagged in and he hit a suplex on PAC for a two-count. The Cleaner whipped PAC into the corner and followed it up with a big boot.

Matt Jackson and PAC were the legal competitors as Nick Jackson was taken to the back for further treatment. Lucha Bros took turns to dominate Matt but the latter fought back with northern lights suplexes on both stars. PAC and Omega were tagged in. Omega hit a fireman's carry and got a two-count.

The numbers game proved too much for Kenny Omega as Death Triangle continued their domination. Penta took out Matt Jackson with a piledriver on the apron. PAC went for a Black Arrow on Omega but he dodged it. Towards the end of the match, Nick Jackson came out to rejoin the contest.

He came in with a flurry of offenses and took out the Death Triangle members. Nick went for a superkick on Rey Fenix, but Penta used the hammer behind the referee's back on him. Fenix then applied a knee bar as Nick Jackson tapped to out to give Death Triangle a 3-1 lead.

Not the 🔨 behind the referee's back on Nick Jackson's knee!
