After attacking both men, Hardy set up a ladder and challenged them to a Triple Threat Ladder match. Sami Zayn and AJ Styles had just finished a match when Jeff Hardy ran down and attacked both men.

AJ and Sami had a competitive match. Well, mostly, they competed over who was better at cheating.

AJ Styles turned out to be the better rule breaker. Sami Zayn was caught grabbing the tights during the pin. While he was arguing with the referee, AJ Styles rolled him up for the win.

All three men believe they are the rightful IC Champion. Hardy beat Styles for it. However, Styles claims he only lost because Hardy had a weaponized knee brace.
