Dunne sent D'Angelo into the steel cage walls right off the bat and broke a steel chair on his back. Weapons were in play right away, and Tony dropped Dunne on top of a trashcan as the match continued.
Dunne used a wrench and a toolbox to smash Tony's fingers before D'Angelo sprayed him with a fire extinguisher. Both men were climbing the walls, and Tony got a near fall after they dropped.
D'Angelo zip-tied Dunne's hands behind his back and beat up the Bruiserweight, using a hammer to smash his teeth. Dunner tried to lock in a submission move with his legs before D'Angelo hit a powerbomb and a DDT for a near fall.
