Breakker overpowered Zayn early on. Zayn fired up and took Breakker down with a springboard moonsault at ringside. Breakker took control again and grounded Zayn. Zayn kept fighting, and he dropped Breakker with a tornado DDT. Zayn continued to gain momentum, but Breakker trucked over him at ringside. Zayn then got a two-count with a Blue Thunder Bomb. Breakker gained the upper hand and hit a Frankensteiner off the top rope. He then drilled Zayn with a clothesline onto the broadcast table.
