Result: Corbin kicks Styles out of the ring and steals the pin to win the title (19:20).

Rating: This was a perfectly entertaining triple threat match if also one of the most lazily-booked multi-man matches in recent memory.

The formula was embarrassingly transparent as each man took turns sleeping for a few minutes on the outside while the other two men fought, and you have to wonder why nobody tries anything more creative or interesting with these matches when they're being put together. It's so dull.

The wrestling itself, though, was very solid: AJ's attempts to kill Dillinger with the Styles Clash were great, and Corbin's sneaky heel victory suited him perfectly, especially those brutal kicks to AJ.

Everyone ended up looking good here, and hopefully this means that AJ's going back to the top of the card. 6/10
