Kong teamed with Gail Kim, Mickie James, Jordynne Grace, and Knockouts Champion Trinity defeating Shaw, Deonna Purrazzo, Savannah Evans, Tasha Steelz, and Angelina Love in the main event of the show.
The contents of the briefcases were revealed after last week’s ‘Feast or Fired’ match in a segment hosted by SiriusXM’s Dave LaGreca.
Moose will receive a World Title shot, Chris Bey secured a tag title shot for ABC, and Crazzy Steve will receive a Digital Media title shot. That meant Yuya Uemura is fired and will be given a ‘goodbye ceremony’ on next week’s show that is being taped in Memphis this weekend.
