He talks about TJ Perkins attacking him last night on RAW, and of the man who came to his aid, Austin Aries. Aries heads to the ring. Gallagher thanks Aries and tells Aries that he owes him. He will make sure that Aries makes it to his title match with Neville unscathed. Gallagher then gets a couple of beers and toasts Aries in the traditional English way.<\/p>\n<p>Neville interrupts the toast and heads towards the ring. Neville tells Gallagher that he is a symptom of a larger problem. He says that England (and the people in the crowd) has become a parody of itself. Aries reminds Neville that he got himself intentionally disqualified in his last title defense. TJ Perkins then attacks Aries from behind.<\/p>\n<p>Neville runs to the ring and attacks Gallagher. The four of them brawl, with Aries and Gallagher eventually getting the better of Neville and Perkins. Gallagher and Aries finish their toast as Neville and Perkins back away.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><em>Backstage<\/em><\/span><br \/>\nRich Swann encounters Noam Dar and Alicia Fox.

Ali and Nese work well together with their combination of high-flying versus power. Both guys looked great in this one, and I really liked how Nese focused his attack on Ali&#8217;s chest after dropping him onto the barricade and the announce table fairly early in the match.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><em>Backstage<\/em><\/span><br \/>\nAriya Daivari complains that his boots weren&#8217;t shined well, so he refuses to pay the guy who did it.

This felt like an important match, and the action in the ring supported that feeling. Both guys looked great, and this seemed to be one of the more straightforward and hard-hitting matches between these two. The last few minutes of this match were fantastic, and it could have believably gone either way multiple times.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><em>Ring Area<\/em><\/span><br \/>\nAfter the match, Kendrick attacks Tozawa.
