Near the end of the match, Adam Cole ran out to be at ringside to offer words of encouragement to MJF so that he would not submit to Joe’s sleeper. In the process of running down to the ring, Cole leaped off the elevated ramp and appeared to have suffered a leg related injury.

Following the match, Cole was seen limping around in the ring during MJF’s post-match victory celebration.
