After the match, Eli Drake cut a promo with two enhancement talents Brandon Tidwell and Mr. Atlantis and challenged one of them for a match. Atlantis wanted to accept the challenge but Drake opted to wrestle Tidwell. Drake nailed a Gravy Train to Tidwell for the quick win and attacked Atlantis after the match.

In the penultimate match, Petey Williams took on Rich Swann. Swann countered a Canadian Destroyer by Williams into a Death Valley driver and nailed a Standing Shooting Swann Press for the win. After the match, Swann declared his intentions of pursuing the X Division Championship and Matt Sydal offered to help him but Swann declined his help.

Main event match[]

The main event was supposed to be a tag team match pitting Eddie Edwards and Moose against the World Champion Austin Aries and Killer Kross but Moose was attacked before the match. Edwards began the match himself. After a back and forth match between both teams, Moose finally joined the match as Edwards nailed a double underhook powerbomb to Kross. Moose then tagged in but turned on Edwards by hitting him with a spear and joined Aries and Kross in triple teaming Edwards.

Reception[]

Larry Csonka of 411 Mania rated ReDefined 6.8, considering it "a pretty good show that peaked with the opener" and did a nice job of setting up some angles moving forward. The follow up will be key to its overall success."[2]
