Dijak hits Feast Your Eyes for the win.
– Stacey Ervin Jr. & Humberto Carrillo come out for a match, but Kassius Ohno comes out. He says that it is out of character for him to be out here, but he has been doing things that are out of character a bit. Kassius then says that he was watching the monitor and he saw as the camera panned the crowd, he saw a lot of familiar faces, the “notorious Full Sail crowd.” He then tells the crowd that he detests them and they make him sick and they think they know everything, but here is something they don’t know, he is leaving. He then says that it’s 2019, he’s got options and he’s gonna go where he is appreciated. Keith then Lee comes out and lays him out and says “Oh No” then says better yet and does his viral “oh my god” singing voice. He then tells Kassius not to let the door hit him in the ass on the way out and apologizes to Stacey & Humberto for the interruption and says for the show to go on.
