(7) AAW Hvt. champion Pentagon, Jr. beat Tommaso Ciampa at 13:02 to retain the AAW Hvt. Title.

After the match, Pentagon, Jr. got on the mic to thank Ciampa and credit him for the work he has done in AAW. The two men hugged in the ring, and Pentagon raised the arm of Ciampa. Pentagon then gave the mic to Ciampa. Ciampa reflected on his journey through ROH and AAW before going full-time with WWE NXT.  Zack Sabre, Jr., Michael Elgin, Chris Hero, Cedric Alexander, Fenix, and Pentagon Jr. all hit the ring to give their thanks to Ciampa.
