MOX called himself the king in wrestling's new Gilded Age. He's also in our opening contest.

Matthew wanted MOX to come out and talk more business. But Kenny Omega comes out. Kenny teases them, comparing them to yappy Shih Tzus that poop on the floor. He says he's fighting to restore the feeling and that they're fighting to tear down the company he's given his life for.
