The Rizzler was also on the card at Full Gear, featuring as the special guest timekeeper for the match.
The match was the final match on Zero Hour, but a report by "Fightful Select" has claimed that Marshall wanted it to be the second match so that they could keep viewers hooked for the third and final match of the pre-show.
