The opening match to the main card for the ROH Final Battle 2022 pay-per-view had a bizarre finish.

In the first match of the event, RUSH teamed with his brother Dralistico to face off against Blake Christian and AR Fox.

While RUSH and Dralistico dominated the majority of the bout, Christian and Fox made a quick comeback.

While the popular high-flyers ended up scoring a victory over the La Facción Ingobernable, the closing moments of the bout left fans scratching their heads.

AR Fox nailed Dralistico with a 450 splash before going for the pin. While the referee counted to three and called the match, noticeably kicked out.

It has been speculated that the moment was botched, with many pointing out that Fox and Christian looked surprised after the bell rang.

The duo’s celebration was cut short by the La Facción Ingobernable members, who attacked them before heading to the back.
