Ethan Carter vs. Rockstar Spud

Some funny pre-match antics with Carter getting Jeff to give him a massage and tricking Spud with a trick handshake. Spud goes after Carter, with a big flurry of offense. Carter is on the defense and tries to slow Spud down with a chinlock. Spud fights back with chops and kicks in the corner as the referee tries to drag him off. He takes to the air but Carter manages to ground him. Spud bites Carter and goes for the Enziguri. Ethan hits the TKO and One Percenter to retain. Spud came out of this whole thing looking somewhat credible, although the bow tie was kind of silly.
