-Red River Jack(w/ Big Daddy) d. "The King Of Chaos" Ricky Cruz(w/ Travis Cook & Attila Khan) in a no-countout-no-DQ match with RRJ's mask on the line and Jim Cornette as the special guest referee. Before the match even started, Cornette appointed Jake Dirden as the special ringside enforcer and banned Khan from ringside. He also entrusted Dirden with his trademark tennis racket to use against any interfering parties. Cruz survived a Double-R-J(RKO/Diamond Cutter) and Jack survived Cruz's superkick. Dirden stopped Ken Kasa from interfering, but Flash Flanagan entered the ringside area through the back door to attack Dirden from behind...the two brawled away from the ringside area and completely out of the building. Cornette got into a tussle with Travis Cook, leading to Cruz hitting Jack with the tennis racket for a close near-fall. Ricky confronted Cornette over his pin count, but that allowed RRJ to recover and blast Cruz with the tennis racket for the victory!
-Attila Khan(w/ Travis Cook) d. "Risky Business" Everett Connors after the inverted DDT. Khan caught Connors in his own version of the Asiatic Spike after the match; Cook had to put a black hood over his head to calm him down.
-Next week:  Daniel Eads & Shiloh Jonze vs. Ken Kasa & Bull Bronson.
