Hank and Tank set an aggressive pace early, utilizing double-team power moves to trap Moreno in their corner. However, Dar and Moreno gradually altered the momentum using rapid tag sequences, speed, and technical joint locks:

Brawling Outside: Action spilled onto the floor near the commentary desk, where Moreno neutralized the heavyweights with a diving splash off the barricade.
Crucial Kickout: Hank and Tank executed consecutive splash variations onto Dar, but the Scottish star managed to kick out at the last second.
Submission Turnaround: When Hank and Tank signaled for their signature Honk-Honk combination, Dar and Moreno countered into simultaneous ankle locks to wear down their opponents.

In the closing sequence, Hank connected with a Bossman Slam on Dar, but Moreno broke up the pinfall attempt. Dar and Moreno then executed stereo Cross Rhodes—a nod to the special guest on commentary—followed by a high-low kick combination, allowing Moreno to pin Tank for the three-count.
