• Jacob Fatu vs. Braun Strowman on Saturday Night’s Main Event ended in a No Contest.
Fatu kept hitting Strowman with the running hip attack in the corner. When the referee told Fatu to stop, Fatu attacked the referee. Braun was left busted open and Fatu didn’t stop despite referees and officials coming out, and went on to hit multiple springboard moonsaults.

According to Fightful Select, the original plan for the beatdown was for Fatu to hit even more Moonsaults, kind of similar to “Big” Bronson Reed hitting his opponents with several Tsunamis.
