TM16 heads to the ring next. Aries gets on the mic and informs everyone that he has a broken eye-hole and he&#8217;s too valuable a commodity to risk permanent injury.

TJP and Ibushi took control of the match early with some good teamwork and strong individual efforts. SAnitY eventually started to take over and isolate TJP through their sheer size and strength.
