Excalibur, Taz, and Tony Schiavone were on commentary to star the show. They ran through tonight’s card, and then tossed to an interview that took place earlier in the day between MJF and Renee Paquette. He was asked about the Hair vs. Contract match stipulation, but he just walked away from the question. MJF suddenly saw bald men everywhere he looked, Tommaso Ciampa even blew a kiss at him. Ricochet laughed and said he would look great, just not as good as him.
In the arena, ring entrances began for the opening 10 man tag team match. Tommaso Ciampa was out first, followed by David Finlay and Clark Connors, and then FTR. They were followed by Orange Cassidy, The Young Bucks, Adam Copeland, and Christian Cage.
1. Orange Cassidy, Nick Jackson, Matt Jackson, Christian Cage, and Adam Copeland vs. Tommaso Ciampa, Clark Connors, David Finlay, Dax Harwood, and Cash Wheeler: A brawl involving all ten men broke out when the ball rang. Chaos spilled all over the ringside area as fights were taking place in multiple areas simultaneously. Harwood and Cassidy eventually started up in the ring, while others brawled through the crowd.
Harwood battled with Cassidy on the turnbuckle and both men ended up on the top rope. Dax landed a superplex, but Cassidy quickly recovered and landed a stunner. More people returned to the apron as things began to settle down. The heels singled out Cassidy and clubbed him in the corner. Ciampa then tagged in and attempted some strikes, but Cassidy blocked them. Cassidy eventually broke free and made a tag to Nick Jackson, who entered the match fired up and took down both members of FTR and then landed superkicks to Clark Connors and David Finlay.
Matt Jackson then entered the match to assist and performed his locomotion Northern Lights Suplexes on Connors and Finlay. Stokely tried to get involved, which created a distraction that allowed FTR to sneak back into the ring. The Bucks continued to dominate, sending FTR into The Dogs on the apron and then landing a set of superkicks on FTR. Ciampa tried to get involved, but he got kicked in the face as well. Christian then entered the match and made a cover for a two count…[c]
