Steph pulled out a chair for PCO. PCO pulled out a chair put held it up. He was persuaded to put it down and she sat down. PCO lit candles that were on the table as romantic music played.
Fans chanted “How romantic.” Steph said it was nice to go out with a normal guy for once after dating weirdos. She offered the mic to PCO, but he just growled. De Lander asked what he likes to do outside of wrestling and there was more grunting. He pulled out a glass and drank a black liquid. We can only hope it’s not Jonathan Gresham’s black ink.
Steph drank some and said it was too strong. A waiter poured a drink for them and they toasted. The plate was revealed, which appeared to be worms. PCO said it was a Stephanie special. Steph took a photo “for the ‘gram.” She asked for his IG address. He ate a handful of the worms. She showed him how a fork works and was about to feed him worms, when they were interrupted by First Class.

Steph got in his face and AJ pushed her to the mat. AJ slammed PCO. Rich Swann tied PCO to the corner and stomped him. Steph slapped the hat off of AJ. AJ choke slammed Steph through the table as fans booed. Francis taunted PCO and said they would do it again and again. AJ and Swann celebrated and left.
