Match

The Viking Raiders had an early advantage, but Ricochet pulled Ivar off the middle rope with a hurricanrana. As Ricochet and Cedric kept Ivar isolated, Alexander hit a tornado DDT, but Erik got a blind tag. After Ricochet hit a somersault senton, Erik kicked out of a pinfall attempt. Cedric Alexander missed a cross body to the outside and Erik threw Ricochet over the top rope on top of Alexander. Ivar then hit a tope suicida as Raw went to commercial.

When Raw returned, the Viking Raiders maintained control. Erik slammed Ivar on top of Alexander for a near fall. Alexander cart wheeled away from Ivar and hit a drop kick and flatliner before getting the tag to Ricochet. Taking on both members of the Viking Raiders, Ricochet used a running shooting star press for a near fall.

Cedric Alexander missed the neuralizer, and Ivar and Erik hit all their big moves on him. Ricochet and Alexander managed to evade several pinfall attempts, but the Raiders eventually hit the Viking Experience for the pinfall.
