Minutes to Bell Time

Danny Burch and Oney Lorcan vs. Brian Kendrick and Ariya Daivari

205 Live February 21: No DQ

The brawl began on the outside before the bell rang. Daivari tossed Lorcan off the stage, but he landed on his feet. After the bell rang, Burch and Kendrick continued to fight into the crowd as Daivari slammed Lorcan into the barricade.

Daivari brought a chair into the ring hitting both Lorcan and Burch. Burch managed to drop told Daivari into the chair. Burch and Lorcan did the Dudley Boyz gimmick when Burch screamed “Oney, get the table.” Burch and Lorcan were setting up to push Daivari through the table, but Kendrick made the save and used a Death Valley driver on Lorcan from the apron through the table.

Back in the ring, Burch rammed Daivari’s head straight into a ladder. Burch then climbed the ladder, but Kendrick hit a Russian Leg Sweep off the ladder. Daivari then climbed the ladder and hit a splash off the top. Oney Lorcan broke up the pinfall attempt.

With Kendrick sitting in a chair, Lorcan hit a running blockbuster and then a dive over the top rope onto both Kendrick and Daivari. Burch and Lorcan next used duct tape to tie Kendrick to the turnbuckle. They then hit an implant DDT on the announce table  and then again in the center of the ring for a pinfall victory.
