We see clips from September 2025. Savio Vega talks to Fernando Tonos' assistant in the back. The guy says he has information for him and Savio wants him to sign some documents. Tonos comes in and wants the signed documents. Tonos gets them signed but says he's not satisfied. Vega says in the IWA, things will always be done his way.

Thoughts: It was a decent bout here. They had the right idea and tried to bring some aggression to this. The execution could have been a little better but I was fine with this one. They got a lot of time and they use it well.

Thoughts: They told a good story here with Savio cheating and doing everything he could to ensure Jay didn't win and Jay overcoming the odds. It made sense, it made you feel sympathetic for Jay and it just worked. The crowd popped big for the finish and I can't blame them.
Jay celebrates in the crowd after.

Jay then heads in and beats up on Vega's crew. Ricky gets some shots in and they get the edge on the heels. Ricky chairs Pedro Portillo III in the head. Vega's crew backs off and Vega yells at Ricky. Ricky and Jay then run into each other. They tease fighting. Jay offers a handshake then they shake hands.
Overall thoughts: It was a good show. We only got 2 matches here but both got tons of time to play out and we saw them in full. We also got a good angle to close the show with Banderas turning face on Vega then joining up with Jay Blake. I enjoyed this one and thought they did a nice job here. This gets an easy 7 out of 10 from me and I'd recommend it.
