After the match, EC3 helps Isom to his feet. He says there is no honor in what wrestlers do when he do it for corporate wrestling and three-letter brands. He says our leaders have failed us, and both Dak Draper and Brian Johnson come to the ring. EC3 tells Johnson has lost everything, and that’s what makes him so dangerous. He says this is a call to arms, as they can take this industry back by controlling the narrative. Westin Blake and another individual come to the ramp while EC3 tells Johnson and the others he can give them their freedom, but they have to fight. Adam Scherr (Braun Strowman) shows up and attacks Johnson and the others.
