Stokely Hathaway, a member of the ROH board, provided commentary. Jeff Jarrett and company tried to get involved at ringside. Lethal tried to use Jarrett's guitar against Kingston, but Ortiz balanced out the interference by using the guitar on Sonjay Dutt. Kingston then scored the win by hitting Lethal with a half and-half suplex followed by a Spinning Backfist.

Post-match Eddie Kingston called Stokely a little bald-headed bitch.
