Commentators: Tim E.D. & Brett Wolverton.
Mikael Judas vs. Jacoby Boykins(w/ Jerry Palmer & Jagged Edge): This is the first match in a gauntlet for Judas and he takes the fight to Boykins right away. Jagged Edge is in the position of being Palmer's personal security guard. Boykins powers out of El Crucifijo to finally get some offense going...and Palmer gets in some cheapshots behind the referee's back. Jacoby goes after the knee, something that could be a longer-term problem in this particular situation. Boykins hits his trademark powerslam but doesn't go for the pin, leading to Judas doing the Zombie Sit-Up(tm Undertaker). Judas starts fighting back and Boykins goes back to the knee, but Judas muscles up to send Jacoby to Chokeslam City...one down, two to go!
Mikael Judas vs. Se7en(w/ Jerry Palmer & Jagged Edge): Judas throws Boykins into Se7en on entry...he stays in attack mode, then mocks Se7en a bit by doing his own jumping elbowdrops. Palmer distracts Judas from delivering another chokeslam, then Jagged Edge slides in a chair and Se7en takes out Judas' bad leg with it! That's a DQ, but Se7en decides to seriously earn that disqualification before the final match of the gauntlet...
Mikael Judas vs. Bryan Cassanova(w/ Jerry Palmer, Jagged Edge, Jeff G. Bailey, & Miss Rachel): Cassanova's been MIA for a while, but he may have an easy time with the injured Judas. Cassanova spends a lot of time posing instead of going for the kill...he hits the TKO but only gets 2 1/2. Cassanova goes after the achy-breaky knee and hooks the figure-four leglock(complete with rope grab for illegal leverage)...Judas powers into a reversal until an unseen-by-the-ref eyerake by Palmer stops him. Judas finally does reach the ropes for a break but he's in big trouble...he tries to set up a finisher but the knee won't hold up. Cassanova goes for his own chokeslam but Judas fights out, then tries for El Crucifijo but the knee gives out. TKO attempt is blocked and Judas tries for El Crucifijo again...THIS time he hits it and gets the win!
Palmer freaks out and destroys some of the Halloween decorations with his axhandle...aww. This means Palmer will have to step in the ring with Judas...
Shaun Tempers(w/ Jeff G. Bailey) vs. Brodie Ray Chase for the Heavyweight Title: Brodie's a huge underdog, but he's pinned the champ in a few non-title situations recently. Chase outwrestles Tempers in the early minutes of the match...he targets the arm until Tempers sends him into the ropes with a yank of the tights. The fans rally behind Brodie and he fights back into the match...Rachel distracts the ref from seeing a few pin attempts, so Chase plants a kiss on her! Tempers charges and accidentally knocks Rachel off the apron, then Brodie reverses into KICK WHAM DOUBLE-UNDERHOOK DDT! Cover and pin(though the ref misses the foot on the bottom rope)...new champ? No, senior official(and NWA Elite stooge) Brent Wiley runs in and orders the match to continue!
Tempers jumps on the opportunity, KICK WHAM RUDE AWAKENING...but official Dee Byers stops Wiley from making the pin count because he's not the assigned ref for this bout. A shoving match leaves Wiley on his rear end and the locker room empties to rally behind The Stray Cat...the combatants duke it out in mid-ring but Tempers rams him into the corner to block another double-underhook DDT. Rude Awakening attempt is countered into a backslide attempt(shades of a previous tag match finish between the two) but Tempers fights out of THAT...only to get rolled up out of nowhere for the flash pin! This time it's for real...we have a NEWWWWW Heavyweight Champion! Brodie, Buck, and Stryknyn all pose with their newly-won belts...
Azrael & Slim J(w/ Dan Wilson) vs. The Urban Assault Squad(Shadow Jackson & Nemesis)(w/ Jerry Palmer), barbed-wire match for the Tag Team Titles: This is in clipped format...it's a hardcore-style match with two sets of ropes wrapped in the wire. Nemesis hangs Slim J from the broadcast table until The Rev bashes him with a computer keyboard. Shadow drops Azrael on a bunch of chairs with a 1031 Spinebuster from the apron to the floor. Back in the ring, Slim J is wrapped to a table with barbed wire and Nemesis puts him through the table with a senton bomb off the top rope...yeah, that'll do it and we have NEWWWWW Tag Team Champions! Palmer and the UAS members hang Wilson over the ropes for fun...they're about to add some barbed wire to the equation but Chase and Judas arrive to run them off.
