The end of the show saw a new faction form. Kamille had been acting like she was protecting Tim Storm, only to turn and spear him and align with Nick Aldis.

Sin Cara Gets New Name:

The former Sin Cara has his new wrestling name. Jorge Arias will now go by Cinta de Oro, which translates to Gold Ribbon (h/t WrestlingInc). This was the in-ring name of the luchador who trained Arias, and he claims to be posing with the sons of his trainer in an Instagram photo. There are some potential legal challenges to the name, as some claim those are not the legitimate sons in the photograph and a woman claims to own the Cinta de Oro trademark in Mexico.
