Corbin initially made his way out to the ring and demanded that since Elias could not be ready, the match start and he be counted out. However, Elias was able to come down the ramp, and after Corbin tried to charge him, Elias was able to get the upper hand, landing a few kicks before getting in a devastating shot with the guitar. Late in the match, Corbin attempted to cheat, rolling up Elias with his feet on the ropes. After being caught and arguing with the referee, Elias quickly rolled up Corbin for the win.
