RockNES Monsters versus AC/DC w/ SoCal Val
This match constantly went back and forth as both teams looked for the victory in this one. AC/DC dominated early in this one picking up several near falls on both Johnny Goodtime and Johnny Yuma. Both Arik Cannon and Darin Corbin looked extremely focused in the early stages until the RockNES Monsters made a comeback and completely isolated Arik Cannon hitting him with several Explosive Amnesia's but they couldn't keep Cannon down thanks to both SoCal Val and Darin Corbin kept either distracting the referee or making the timely pinfall. In the end it was brutal dropkick by Corbin on Yuma as Yuma was covering Arik Cannon that lead to AC/DC making the comeback. Cannon then recovered enough to catch Yuma with a Brainbuster for a near fall before tagging Corbin back into the match. Once he hit the ring Corbin was on fire connecting with a couple of Toxic Seahorse's and the Fall of the Concords before ending this match with the Soul Crushing Finale.
