- Prior to the start of the match, Ninja Mack’s entrance music played but instead of Mack coming out, it was SHO dragging out “Ninja Mack” in a headlock to the ring. SHO then got a quick submission victory over “Ninja Mack” only for the real Ninja Mack to come out and confront SHO over his antics. This led to the fake “Ninja Mack” being unmasked revealing himself to be a Young Lion and the referee voiding SHO’s victory and calling for the bell for the real match to start.
- Near the end of the match, SHO engaged in some House of Torture style shenanigans all on his own and rolled up Ninja Mack and grabbed onto his tights to secure the victory over the real Ninja Mack.
