I guess it is open to interpretation, as is a lot of irony, but this example perfectly fits definition #3: The sequence of events is this: Roderick Strong fights PAC, Roderick Strong and PAC win tag team tournament. You would not expect the second to follow the first.

See, if PAC had needed a partner and the ONLY person who was willing to team with him was the one man who he had said he would never team with, and they ended up making such a great team they became champions, that would be ironic.
Also by definition 3: A man and woman get married. As they leave the church a plane falls on top of them and kill them. You would not expect the second to follow the first. Does that make it IRONIC? Not even slightly.
