The Bang Bros returned quickly and took out Wasted Youth with some tag team maneuvers. CPF hit a standing moonsault/shooting star press onto Mathews. Best Bros came back into the ring and they took out CPF fairly easily, but as they were celebrating, Wasted Youth returned, kicked them in the chest, and sent them to the floor. They isolated Joe Lando inside the ring with a flying forearm into the corner, followed by a back cracker moonsault that again only resulted in a two-count. Joe Lando was rocked by the moonsault as McKay’s knees hit him directly in the face. Wasted Youth took turns chopping Joe Lando, Mathers dumped Lando in the corner, and McKay did the same thing as the pace of the match slowed down. Wasted Youth kept tagging in and out as they continued to beat down Lando. Best Bros returned to the ring and started to beat up Lando as well. Mei chopped the very pale Lando, and Akki did the same, landing with a thudding blow. It was so loud it actually sounded good on the GCW audio.
