Swerve Strickland (w/ Prince Nana) vs. Dustin Rhodes

Swerve jumps Dustin before the bell and whips him into the ringpost, then sends him into the barricade and ring steps. Prince Nana places a cinder block under Dustin’s ankle, and Swerve jumps from the apron and stomps Dustin’s foot. Doctors and referees run out to check on Dustin as Swerve sits on the turnbuckles. Dustin struggles to put weight on his foot and he’s helped up the ramp. Rhodes stops and tries to go back to the ring, and Swerve taunts him from the ring. Dustin gets back in the ring as Swerve says they’re wasting his time, but Dustin calls for the bell.

The match starts and Swerve charges the corner, then talks trash to the camera while he wrenches down on Dustin’s neck. Dustin strikes back with some knife-edge chops in the corner, then gets a crossbody for two. Rhodes hits some more uppercuts, then hits a powerslam for two. Dustin hits the Final Cut, but Swerve kicks out at two.

Swerve regains control and continues to toy with Dustin, as he snaps his arm back. Swerve leaps off of the top rope and hits the Swerve Stomp for the win.

Winner – Swerve Strickland
