Just an awesome tag match that was so ridiculously good, it was criminal there were only 100 or so fans here.
Swann will have a DGUSA Open the Freedom Gate title shot tomorrow.
Swann took the mic and asked everyone what they thought of the match. He said that now he's kicked his ass, he gets to name the stipulation. He said he knows the belt means the world to Gargano, so he doesn't need to add any stipulations. He said that he knows he can beat him and tomorrow he will. Great promo. Swann's charisma is better every time I see him.
