-The close of the show saw Jay Briscoe interrupt Bully Ray's retirement speech and try to goad him into a fight(Ray was being forced into retirement due to concussions).  Officials tried to restore order but Jay hit Bully from behind...that brought out Tommy Dreamer and also Ray's girlfriend Velvet Sky.  Mark Briscoe took a chair away from his brother...but then turned on Dreamer with a low blow.  Jay beat down Dreamer with the chair, then the Briscoes took out Bully Ray with their own Dudley Death Drop.

SICW Wrestling Explosion

-Commentators:  Drew Abbenhaus & "The King Of Chaos" Ricky Cruz.
-"Ironman" Ken Kasa fought "The Icon" Chris Hargas(w/ Travis Cook) to a time-limit draw in a best-of-three-falls match to retain the Classic Title; Travis was handcuffed to promoter Herb Simmons at ringside. Kasa nearly won the first fall after a John Wu Dropkick off the second rope, but Hargas' feet were under the ropes and the referee waved it off. Hargas took advantage of the chaos and rolled up Kasa with a handful of tights to win the first fall for real. Hargas delivered a Tombstone, but took too long to go for the cover and Kasa took him down into a Crippler Crossface for the tapout to even the score. Hargas focused his attack on the neck from there and the two traded sleepers...Hargas nearly won the third fall and the match with a sleeper as Kasa's arm dropped twice, but he just BARELY kept his arm up on the third check. Kasa countered an F-5 attempt by taking Hargas down into the Crossface again, but Hargas refused to surrender and the time limit expired!
