TNT Championship Match: Powerhouse Hobbs (c) (w/ QT Marshall, Aaron Solow & Harley Cameron) vs. Penta El Zero Miedo (w/ Alex Abrahantes)
Hobbs is flanked by the QTV crew. The action spills to the floor quickly, with Hobbs keeping control because of the numbers advantage and his strength. He gets a near fall with a suplex going into the first commercial break. Throughout the break, Penta tries to fight his way up but continues to be cut off by the power game of Hobbs.
Back from break just in time for Penta to begin mounting a comeback with a Slingblade and a Backstabber. He gets a near fall with the Backstabber. Penta goes for his arm breaker, but Hobbs is able to fight out of it and drops Penta with a variant of Emerald Flowsion for two. Hobbs goes for a Torture Rack, but Penta fights out of it, sending the champion flying out of the ring with a Superkick and follows that up with a Tope. Penta hits a Double Stomp on the apron and then one in the ring but still only manages to get a two-count.
QT Marshall gets on the apron with the championship belt and a steel chair. Alex Abrahantes is able to neutralize that interference, Aaron Solo tries to interfere but Penta is able to catch him. Hobbs hits Penta with the championship belt and delivers a Burning Hammer for the victory.
