Janela replaces Rey Fenix, who was injured on a dive this past week. Christopher Daniels cuts a promo on behalf of Sky and Kazarian before the match and says a win for either of them is a win for SCU. Best Friends say they’re all going to end up champions.
Sky and Kazarian are the first two entrants, there will be a new entrant every two minutes. Anyone can win even before all entrants have entered.
Kaz and Sky go for ladders right off the bat but then stop and mat wrestle for several minutes.

They hit a Michinoku Driver/Dropkick combo on Sky and then Havoc places Kaz on the top rope and sets a ladder up on the bottom turnbuckle.

Allin sets a ladder up like a bridge between the barricade and the ring and then attempts to toss Kaz into it, but Kaz ducks only for Allin to throw his skateboard at him!

The match was fine for the most part but just unbelievably overbooked, which is becoming a theme for Dusty's son. It's not needed half the time either. I also strongly disagree with Archer getting pinned clean this early. Screams nepotism. #AEWDON
