Myers says he's in.

Bunkhouse Brawl: Rich Swann vs. Impact Tag Team Champion Karl Anderson (w/Doc Gallows)

Rich Swann wastes little time as he slides into the ring. He lays out Doc Gallows on the outside by going up and over. Swann then sends Karl Anderson right through a wooden board that's set up in the corner. On the outside, Swann hits a buzzsaw DDT on Anderson at the top of the ramp. Anderson turns it around briefly, but Swann turns his attention toward Gallows (who isn't scheduled to be in this match) and hits him where the sun doesn't shine. He lands the same move on Anderson. The fans are very pleased with this!
