IWGP Junior Heavyweight Championship
The Young Bucks (c) defeat Roppongi Vice via submission (Twin Scorpion Death Locks after hitting a Meltzer Driver) – Ricochet attacked the Bucks following the match and called for a title shot in Japan for him and Taguchi (The Funky Future) – he also did a shoot on Lucha Underground saying “he would’ve been their earlier but a certain Underground fighting company are being pricks right now.” Rocky Romero announced that Trent Beretta would be moving up to the Heavyweight division and Roppongi Vice would be disbanding. The two embraced and their theme music likely played for the final time. What a crazy show.

Bullet Club came down to the ring to celebrate Omega’s victory. Dissension was teased between Cody and Omega but Cody would eventually place the belt around Omega’s waist. Omega would then cut a babyface promo and give the fans in Long Beach some love. The show ended with Bullet Club at the top of the stage celebrating Omega’s big victory.
