All the demos grew noticeable except Adults 50+ that fell from 0.21 to 0.20.
The show was headlined by a ten-man tag with Eddie Kingston, The Lucha Brothers, Santana & Ortiz against 2point0, Daniel Garcia & The Acclaimed, plus an eight-man tag with The Best Friends against The SuperKliq & Bobby Fish and a Submission match involving Tay Conti and Penelope Ford.
