Mistress regained her feet, but was taken down by an Ani-Woman Axe Handle, before rolling from the ring. The referee was checking on Mistress while Coven Black spun Pitch Black around for
DIAMOND EYES. Mistress quickly returned to the ring for the cover. Pitch Black kicked out and Mistress looked to Coven for guidance. Black used

Mistress finally managed to make it to the ropes, but the damage was done as SuperNova set up
SPEED OF LIGHT, and scored the pin fall to become the new GWF Women's Champion.
The Satanic Cult vs The RavagersSurprisingly the Ravagers were on the defensive early. Things became heated as Thantos set up for the
MASTERLOCK. Ventross was yanked off the ropes to keep him from making the save, so Epoch jumped up on the apron, and Thantos got in his face. Tharkas tried to ambush Thantos with a running clothesline, but Thantos ducked out of the way, sending Tharkas into Epoch. Thantos hit the
LEGEND LARIAT. Thantos was going to go for the pin, when the symbiotic creature attached to Symbiosis launched itself at him, and attached itself to his face. The referee was trying to separate Bishop Hell from Ventross so missed the interference, which allowed Tharkas to recover and hit the
OBLITERATOR. The referee slide into the ring and counted, but Thantos managed to kick out. The Ravagers hit Thantos with
COUNCIL OF WAR and once again Thantos kicked out. Ventross with a
MERCY KILLING...Thantos with a kick out. Thantos manages to regain his feet, but goes right back down, and is hit with another
MERCY KILLING. Bishop Hell makes the save. Tharkas is in and delivers the
OBLITERATOR. Bishop Hell yanks the referee out before he can count the three. Ventross runs him down while Tharkas is yelling at the ref. Thantos spins Tharkas around for a Gamemaster DDT and then hooks in the
MASTERLOCK. Thantos grabs the ropes for leverage and Tharkas taps out. Bishop Hell catches Ventross with
HELLFIRE, giving him time to retreat along with Thantos.
The shielding around Iron Hand's personal box fades from view.
Iron Hand smirks, "Tsk...Tsk...Tsk. Despite your best efforts, you still couldn't get the job done against those upstart 'Legends'. I think your men need time to cool off, so I'm sending them packing for the next 3 weeks."
Epoch, "WHAT! This is an outrage! You can't do that!"
Iron Hand, "Oh but I can Epoch. Because.......I RUN THIS FED! Now get out of my ring before I send you home with them."The All-Stars vs The ShadowclanVarsity and Parox started out strong, but things quickly turned to The Shadowclan's favor, and Parox was hit with
BAND OF THIEVES after two Whiteouts. Parox managed to escape and tag Varsity back in, but Skulk and Hijack would not be denied as the picked Varsity apart, and put him away with
BAND OF THIEVES.
The Satanic Cult vs The Shadowclan vs Pride & Prejudice vs The GladiatorsLots of action in the opening moments as Rush started out against Thantos. The two men went back and forth for several minutes before Thantos started to gain the advantage and tagged in his partner Bishop Hell. Rush managed to make the hot tag to none other than Turmoil who stomped a mud-hole in Bishop Hell, trying twice to put him away with
TRIPLE SUICIDE, but was unsuccessful. Turmoil tags Rush back in and Bishop Hell tags his partner back in. After another short exchange, Thantos tagged in Paganax. The Heathen Chief jabbed a thumb in Rush's eye that dropped him to his knees before connecting with a Primal Scream. Paganax lifted the limp Rush into the air and hit
PAGAN VOID. Turmoil was unable to get in the ring in time for the save since Thantos had him by the boot on the apron. The Gladiators are eliminated.
Skulk slips into the ring to try his luck against Paganax and gets knocked to the mat for his trouble. Skulk reaches out for the hot tag and finds Bishop Hell. Paganax takes Bishop Hell down quickly and tags in Pride. Pride goes to lock in the Scorpion Deathlock when Bishop Hell blasts him in the face with a gout of
HELLFIRE, before rolling him up. Paganax makes the save, but while he is being escorted out by the ref, Bishop Hell hits Pride with
HELLFIRE a second time and puts him away. Pride & Prejudice have been eliminated.
Hijack enters the ring against Bishop Hell, but gets countered quickly, and Thantos gets tagged in. Thantos drops Hijack with the
LEGEND LARIAT. Skulk tries to make the save, but Bishop Hell cuts him off with the Flying Cross. The Satanic Cult become the number one contenders to the tag titles.
Thantos and Bishop Hell 's celebration is short lived as The Ravagers come through the crowd, despite their suspension, and go after The Satanic Cult. The two legends bail from the ring and make a hasty retreat to the back.Epoch vs The Amazing MannThe two men tore into each other. Mann scored a near fall with Simply Amazing, but the master strategist would make a comeback, and after some high impact offense to soften Mann up, he hit a wicked
RESISTANCE IS FUTILE to put the Amazing One away.
The Amazing Mann injured 3 cards.As Epoch is exiting the ring, Harm jumps the barricade, and attacks the injured Mann to begin the next match.Harm vs The Amazing MannMann tried to fight back and even managed to kick out of
DROP ZONE. Harm hit him with a Cyber-Arm Low Blow that set up a second
DROP ZONE, but Mann countered at the last second, and locked in
UNBREAKABLE. Harm had no where to go and tapped out.
Ma'Geden vs EpochMa'Geden and Epoch went back and forth, counter for counter. Epoch caught Ma'Geden with a Pavo Powerbomb and went for the pin. Ma'Geden kicked out, but was dazed, and Epoch planted him with
RESISTANCE IS FUTILE (snake eyes) to pick up the victory.
Ma'Geden injured 3 cards.Epoch vs HarmThis one was over rather quickly as Harm blasted Epoch with a Loaded Glove before distracting the referee, allowing Exzcutioner to hit the Killstroke during
PLANNED ASSASSINATION, which gave Harm an easy win.
Ma'Geden vs HarmThe Corvus native was all over the Assassin leader. Too Harm's credit he survived two
ULTIMA LEAPS, and managed to grab the momentum. Harm rolled from the ring to catch a breather and Ma'Geden went high risk after him. Harm slung a chair into Ma'Geden as he was coming off the top rope and rolled into the ring. Ma'Geden was just recovering when Swarm hoisted him for the Venomous Stinger and rolled him into the ring. Harm tried to score the pin fall, but Ma'Geden got his foot on the ropes to break the count. Harm hits
DROP ZONE, but still fails to put Ma'Geden away. Harm tosses Ma'Geden from the ring and distracts the referee for a second
PLANNED ASSASSINATION, this time by The Shadowclan, who hit Band of Thieves on the bleeding Ma'Geden. Harm goes for the pin a third time, and once again Ma'Geden kicks out, but is looking pretty hurt at this point. Harm is growing angry and tosses Ma'Geden from the ring and hits him with an Assassin Drop across the barricade. He then tosses him back into the ring for
HARM'S WAY. Ma'Geden is out and unable to respond to the referee, so the match is called giving Harm the win.
The Amazing Mann vs Ma'GedenMa'Geden is just beginning to stir when Mann enters the ring and slaps him in
UNBREAKABLE. Ma'Geden manages to avoids the full measure of the hold and escapes to his feet, looking shaky. The two men lock up and Ma'Geden comes out on top, sending Mann crashing to the mat with a Corvus Spinebuster before hitting
ENDGAME. Mann escapes the hold easily and gets back to his feet. Mann explodes with a flying cross armbar, rolls into position for
UNBREAKABLE, and cinches it in fully. The injured Ma'Geden fights only a moment before passing out to the pain and giving Mann the victory.
Harm vs Epoch vs The Amazing MannEpoch worked Harm over in a fury over his earlier as Mann hunkered on the outside breathing hard. Epoch hit
RESISTANCE IS FUTILE and Mann went into action by yanking the referee out of the ring at the last second. Epoch is up and arguing with the referee as Mann moves in behind him. Mann goes for
UNBREAKABLE, but is unable to lock it in fully, and Epoch fights for the ropes. Mann holds on to
UNBREAKABLE for a moment longer before transitioning into
CONTORTION. The power of Epoch is too much and he makes it to the ropes to break the hold. Harm comes back into the picture and blindsides Mann before attacking the weakened Epoch. Harm hits a Cyber-Leg Knee Exploder and goes for the pin. Epoch kicks out easily. Harm reaches out and drags the referee to the mat in a fake attempt to get up. Epoch gets run down by the Killstroke in a
PLANNED ASSASSINATION. Harm lets go of the referee and goes for the cover. Mann makes it back into the ring and locks Harm in
UNBREAKABLE. The move is locked in fully and Harm taps out giving The Amazing Mann the win.
Man is kneeling in the center of the ring, in obvious pain as the shield vanishes and Iron Hand steps forward. Flanking him are The Contract Killers.
Iron Hand, "Impressive victory. Truly you are deserving of a Galaxian title shot."
Iron Hand smiles wickedly, "Good luck."Monolith vs The Amazing MannThe Amazing Mann is bulldozed by Monolith with a Crashing Stampede to open the contest. Mann tried to counter with a keylock, but the big man yanked him around for Feel the Terror. As Mann lay on the mat in a daze, Monolith climbed to the top rope and hit an awe inspiring shooting star press called
CATASTROPHE. Monolith places a boot on Mann's chest to get the pin fall.
Out of no where, Avarice hit the ring with the title belt, and blasted Monolith with it. Monolith staggered back from the impact, but didn't go down. Avarice hit him with another shot.
Iron Hand, "Get down there now!"
The Contract Killers leave the office and appear on in the entrance way heading to the ring where Avarice was brawling with Monolith. Before Alphonse and Darmondy can get to the ring though, tow tough looking men in kilts jump the barricade and begin beating them down. They leave The Contract Killers laying before joining Avarice. Avarice has Monolith in position for the 7TH SIN and spikes him onto the title belt. He then grabs a mic and looks in Iron Hand's direction.
Avarice, "You're not the only one with enforcers Iron Hand. Say hello to The Brothers Oaken."
The show ends with carnage inside and outside the ring as Avarice stares into the unreadable features of Iron Hand. Inwardly Iron Hand is fuming with rage.
