(5) ELIJAH vs. FRANKIE KAZARIAN
This was a Walk With Elijah match, meaning they were tied together with an alleged guitar strap and the wrestler who drags the other to all four corners and touches all four turnbuckles is the winner. Per the rules, the match started backstage. They went face to face and the referees attached them to the leather strap. They traded punches and Elijah threw Frankie into a rail. The fight continued. Frankie put hand sanitizer in Elijah’s eyes, then slammed a door on his arm. Elijah continued to threw Frankie into various backstage objects. Elijah picked up Frankie and headed towards the ring.

Elijah went on offense and gave Frankie the Tombstone. Elijah touched three corners, then smashed a guitar over Frankie’s head. He touched the fourth corner and got the win.
WINNER: Elijah in 17:00.
(D.L.’s Take: I give them credit for trying a fresh match concept, especially one that (kinda) tied into Elijah’s gimmick. The match itself was decent and very physical. They both worked hard. With that said, hopefully this will conclude the feud.)
