Page took control when they returned to the ring. Page nailed a belly to back suplex for a two count. He cinched in a rear chinlock. Coleman fought his way out. He nailed a nice series of suplexes for a two count. Page cut off Coleman and scored a two count with a standing moonsault press.
Page went to the top but was cut off and nailed with a top rope rana. Coleman came off the top with a big leg lariat for the pin.
Your winner, Caprice Coleman!

Kazuchida Okada came out. He entered the ring and got in Styles’ face. Styles didn’t know what he was saying so Anderson translated. He said that Okada claims he can beat Styles. Styles said he proved that Okada can’t beat him. He said that he has his hands full against Michael Elgin tonight, so that’s that.
Out came Michael Elgin. He said that he is ready to fight Styles, but what they should do is make it a Three-Way with Okada. He called out ROH Matchmaker Nigel McGuinness. Nigel says that ROH and New Japan are fine with it but all three have to agree. Elgin and Okada agree. Styles confers with the Bullet Club and then says, “The Bullet Club is game.†We have a BIG three-way as the main event tonight!
