Tyson Kidd vs. Tyler Reks
Kidd gets some early offense; Regal says he is a student of the game. Reks gets the upper-hand; Regal says Kidd has been working on a modified Sharpshooter with Bret Hart. Reks works on Kidd's left arm. Kidd speeds things up by spring-boarding off the top rope and flipping to free himself; Reks rolls outside. Kidd follows, then notices he is out-numbered and wisely rolls back in the ring. The ref bans Hawkins—cane in hand—from ringside. As they protest on the outside, Kidd flies through the second rope cross-bodies them both, and rolls to his feet like a cat. He celebrates at ringside.

Maxine is backstage telling Derrick Bateman she did not freak-out. Bateman says to work on her therapist's breathing exercises. Maxine says she is going to find Striker, and get off the show. She says Bateman can go hang out with Kaitlyn and her two-tone hair. Bateman says try not to beat up any women. Bateman walks, as the camera follows. He tells himself he likes this show; he runs into Kaitlyn. She asks him how it went with Maxine. He says how did the Bay of Pigs go? Bateman says he's a lover and a fighter. He wants to go to Smackdown, become Intercontinental Champion, hold the championship for 100 years; he's not here for the drama. He wants to have what he and Kaitlyn have: chill, cool, no drama, high-fives, chest-bumps, etc. (Sexual tension pause.) They high-five, and repeat: "as a friend." Bateman walks off; Johnny Curtis appears, and teases Kaitlyn with a rendition of, "…sitting in a tree, c-h-e-a-t-i-n-g." Kaitlyn says she likes his toothpick, and then punches him in the stomach, and walks off.
