The show started with "Night Train/Gorgeous/Great One" Gary Jackson issuing a challenge to "Da Bomb" Brian James. James had no interest in the match, but Commissioner Jim Harris ordered the bout to take place and it would be a lumberjack match. They had a brief brawl, but James slid out of the ring to avoid further abuse. Cue THE RULES~!
Garrett Shanks d. Damion Cortess after IT'S THE BIG FOOT (3:23). Leone Mephisto attacked Shanks after the match; he and Cortess double-teamed Shanks, but then Mephisto attacked Cortess from behind. Commissioner Jim Harris ordered ringside security to remove Mephisto from the ring; he said that if Mephisto wanted to return to the promotion, he would have to earn it.
The setup for the Heavyweight Title Series: Three points for a decisive win by pinfall/submission/knockout, two points for a win by countout/DQ, one point for a draw/no-contest. The final scoreboard would determine the brackets/seeding for a single-elimination tournament at the end.
Heavyweight Title Series: J-Mal Swagg d. Moondog Rover by DQ when Moondog hit Swagg with his bone (6:52). (Swagg 2, Rover 0)
A.J. Williams(w/ Da'Marius Jones) d. Flaming Freddie Fury with the superkick (2:44).
Heavyweight Title Series: Barackus d. Brandon Espinosa to win the MWR Missouri Title. Espinosa caught Barackus in the cross-armbreaker, but "The" Ace Hawkins ran down to distract the referee as Barackus appeared to be tapping out. Espinosa released the hold to take a swing at Hawkins, but the distraction allowed Barackus to capitalize with the clawhold chokeslam for the surprise win (10:47)! (Barackus 3, Espinosa 0)
Deacon Cash d. Varik Morgan when the referee stopped the match due to a leg injury to Morgan (5:42). Commissioner Harris ruled that the Cruiserweight Title would remain vacant since Cash damaged Morgan's leg before the opening bell. The two men would face each other again on February 11th in a last-man-standing match to crown a champion.
Heavyweight Title Series: "The" Ace Hawkins d. "2.0" Da'Marius Jones(w/ A.J. Williams) by DQ when Brandon Espinosa attacked Hawkins (10:39). (Hawkins 2, Da'Marius 0) Jones tried to attack Espy after the match, but Espy blocked the Paydirt and Jones retreated from the ring.
Gauntlet Match: Leone Mephisto d. "The Enforcer" Jimmy D after a DDT (0:59); Leone Mephisto d. B.T. Daramola after the Air Raid Crash (3:37); The Big Texan d. Leone Mephisto by countout when Mephisto walked out on the match (2:36; 7:12 total). (The top rope snapped loose during the final match of the gauntlet when Texan Irish-whipped Mephisto into the ropes.)
"Da Bomb" Brian James d. "Night Train/Gorgeous/Great One" Gary Jackson in a lumberjack match; a brawl erupted between the lumberjacks on the floor as Jackson had James in the Texas Cloverleaf. The referee was distracted and Leone Mephisto took the opportunity to slide a chair into the ring; James hit Jackson with the weapon and scored the tainted victory (7:56).
Heavyweight Title Series scoreboard: Barackus 3, Hawkins/Swagg 2, Espinosa/Da'Marius/Rover 0.
