-Commentators: Herb Simmons & Drew Abbenhaus.
-"Night Train/Gorgeous/Great One" Gary Jackson & Big Jim Hoffarth(w/ Big Daddy) d. "The King Of Chaos" Ricky Cruz & "Ironman" Ken Kasa(w/ Travis Cook). There was tension on the rulebreakers' side from the get-go as Cruz took exception to Cook proclaiming Kasa to be the former and future Classic Champion. During the bout, Travis tried to throw powder in Jackson's eyes but accidentally blinded Cruz with it when Gary moved out of the way. That led to a huge argument between old rivals Cruz and Kasa, followed by Ricky walking out on his team. Kasa tried to keep Jackson from tagging out, but Hoffarth finally got the tag and overpowered Kasa. Gary tagged back into the match to get the tapout win via Texas Cloverleaf.
