-King Christopher Hargas(w/ Travis Cook) d. Billy McNeil; McNeil nearly scored the win after a middle-rope springboard Diamond Cutter but Cook put Hargas' foot on the bottom rope.  Hargas went on to reverse an O'Connor Roll and hold the ropes for illegal leverage to score the pin (5:36).

-Rob Kowalski d. Danny Dollar via rollup with a handful of tights (5:20).  Dollar bodyslammed Kowalski after the match, but Kowalski claimed that he didn't satisfy the ongoing bodyslam challenge since it didn't take place during the match.
-Attila Khan(w/ Travis Cook) d. Jayson Breed to retain the Classic Title.  Both men were left bloody in the battle; Breed attempted a senton off the second rope(which won him the elimination tag match in December), but Travis pulled his foot to trip him behind the referee's back.  Khan capitalized with a DDT and got the pin, though the referee missed Breed getting a foot on the bottom rope (13:19).

-"The Professor" Serena Deeb d. Katie Arquette with the Serenity Lock(trapped-arm half crab) (1:00).
-"Hangman" Adam Page d. "The Murderhawk Monster" Lance Archer(w/ Jake "The Snake" Roberts & Dan Lambert) in a Texas Death Match(submission-or-knockout-only match) to retain the Heavyweight Title.  Lambert had unscrewed the top rope to take the Buckshot(slingshot somersault lariat) out of Page's arsenal, so Page did a forward roll over the referee's back to lariat Archer off the apron and through a table; that left Archer unable to answer the ten-count (15:28 plus brawling before the bell).  Adam Cole grabbed the title belt from the referee after the bell, only to arrogantly present it to the bloody champion as a sign that he was next in line.
-Friday on Rampage:  The Jurassic Express("Jungle Boy" Jack Perry & Luchasaurus) vs. The Gunn Club(Austin & Colten Gunn) for the Tag Team Titles, plus Roppongi Vice vs. The Young Bucks and Women's Champion Dr. Britt Baker D.M.D. vs. Robyn Renegade(non-title).
-Next week on Dynamite:  "The Demo God" Chris Jericho & "Rock Hard" Jake Hager vs. Proud & Powerful(Angel Ortiz & Mike Santana) and "La Mera Mera" Thunder Rosa vs. "The Latina Sensation" Mercedes Martinez in a no-DQ match.
