Match

Thorne got a bunch of strikes in on Lumis, but it had little impact. Shane Thorne drop kicked Lumis into the corner and hit a cannonball. When Thorne came back in for another move, Lumis sidestepped and hit Thorne with a spinebuster. Lumis finished things off with a sidewalk slam, and he immediately put Thorne in a triangle choke. Shane Thorne attempted to stay in the match for the next several moments, but he eventually faded. The referee stopped the match and awarded the victory to Dexter Lumis.
