In a match that many had been waiting to happen, Swann and Moose put on a show that didn’t disappointment. Early on in the match, Moose looked primed to come away with a win, as he dominated Swann by taking him outside of the ring and working on him there.

Late in the match, Swann was able to dodge three straight spears, with the last one causing Moose to hit himself against a chair that he had set up in the ring earlier. After a dazed Moose attempted to get up, Swann quickly rolled him up, and Moose couldn’t kick out in time to prevent the loss. Now, Swann will face off against Kenny Omega at IMPACT’s Rebellion pay-per-view, with his two belts going up against Omega’s AEW World Championship.
