Capital One Arena – Daly City, CA
Rampage kicked off live with the four-way tag team match between Aussie Open, Blackpool Combat Club, Dark Order, and Top Flight. Dark Order jumped Claudio and Yuta to kick off the match. Ringside was The Kingdom members Maria Kannelis-Bennett, Mike Bennett, and Matt Taven. Then during the match, LFI was shown watching with intent as well. John Silver then executed a WWE Cesaro-style run:

After the match, Dark Order attacked BCC and the two teams brawled.
Next Jack Perry said there were going to be grave consequences – and since Christian is such a big fan of Luke Perry Jungle Boy is going to give him a chance to say hi to him to which Perry called the match “The Final Burial”

Powerhouse Hobbs with the Brass Ring in tow was next to squash Serpentico. The idea here was that Hobbs would be waiting for the winner of Somoa Joe vs. Wardlow.
