Match

Andrade comes out with Zelina Vega, Austin Theory, and Angel Garza. Before the match, Zelina Vega got in Drew’s face. The referee called for the bell when Zelina Vega was still in the ring.

McIntyre took control in the early goings of the match, but Andrade used a distraction from Garza and Theory to pull McIntyre into the post. Andrade then slammed McIntyre’s hand into the steel steps and hit him with a number of strikes on the outside.

Andrade put McIntyre in a draping arm bar over the top rope. McIntyre knocked Andrade down with a back elbow and then came off the top rope with a forearm to the forehead of Andrade.

Andrade surprised Drew with the spinning back elbow, but McIntyre used a back body drop to send Andrade over the top rope. Vega hopped up on the apron to distract Drew.  McIntyre recovered with an Alabama Slam and a Claymore for the pinfall victory.
