As mentioned by Bryan Alvarez on “Wrestling Observer Live,” and further confirmed by Fightful Select, the ending of Benjamin and Bailey’s match was not the truly planned ending. It was noted that BenjamÃn attempted to call an audible in the ring, and the match referee did not hear him, leading to an awkward connection. Before his eventual victory, Benjamin had Bailey pinned to the mat, but Bailey’s shoulder was raised and the referee stopped the two count. For safety, Benjamin landed another superkick, which secured his position in the glove.
