The two have feuded ever since Young returned to the promotion at Slammiversary and Edwards has made an open challenge a mainstay of his reign. However, Young called his shot last week and got a one-on-one title shot as a result. The two put on a hard-hitting bout with each man having their moments, but in the end it was Young that prevailed.

Young would end Edwards’ title run after distracting the referee and hitting Edwards with a hockey mask. He’d follow it up with a huge piledriver to claim the championship.
Who will step up to face the “World Class Maniac” next?
