MacKenzie has an Americana. Baby didn't react quickly enough there and he's in big trouble now! He tries to squirm out but is forced to tap! MacKenzie is delighted and gyrates in front of the ring girls. They seem to like the attention - it'll be interesting to see if MacKenzie hooks up with any of them at the after show party.

Ladies and gentlemen, after 0:57 of round 1, we have a winner by way of Submission (Americana). Dern MacKenzie!
