Stevens hit two Doctor Bombs before putting away Landell with the Overhead Belly to Belly. Erick Stevens advances to the second round of the King of Victory tournament!

Quack and Delirious wrestled a five star match. Quack hit each of his finishers twice but couldn't keep Delirious down. Delirious wore down Quack with the Cobra Twist but couldn't get the victory.

Quackenbush was on the receiving end of a three on one beatdown until Al Snow made the save, battering the three masked heels with Head.

Eddie Kingston vs. Brodie Lee - 1st round:
The former champ looked good but Kingston looked better. He battered Lee with the backfist before putting him away via the Lariat. Eddie Kingston advances to the second round of the King of Victory tournament!

After the match, Kingston said he'd take care of Ted DiBiase if DiBiase was man enough to step into the ring with him.

Claudio Castagnoli vs. Jimmy Jacobs - 1st round:
Castagonil and Jacobs tore the house down, nearly equaling the earlier classic between Quack and Delirious. Jacobs missed with the railroad spike but bounced back and locked on the End Time. Castagnoli made it to the ropes and mounted a comeback, scoring a near fall with the Waterslide before getting the win with the Ricola Bomb! Castagnoli advances to the second round of the King of Victory tournament.

Bryan Danielson vs. Crossbones:
Crossbones scored a near fall early on due to his strength advantage. Danielson battled back and mauled Crossbones, winning with the Cattle Mutilation.

The Young Bucks vs. The Age of the Fall:
The Age of the Fall wrestled an aggressive match and kept the Young Bucks on edge. Nick was a bloody mess early on after being hit with the spike. Black and Jacobs wore him down with quick tags before Jacobs pinned him after the Spear. The Age of the Fall will meet the Backseat Boys next week.

Patriot III nearly pulled off an upset in the opening minutes after knocking Danielson prone and hitting the Patriot Splash. Danielson came back and clamped on the Cattle Mutilation for the submission victory.

After the match, Buff Bagwell berated the Patriot and slapped him, saying he'd show the Patriot how it was done next week and challenged Danielson on the spot. Danielson agreed before leaving the ring area.

Al Snow & Mike Quackenbush vs. Ultramantis Black & Crossbones:
Quackenbush hit two Quackendrivers on Crossbones but couldn't follow up. Crossbones overwhelmed Quack with his power offense. Quack made the hot tag to Al Snow. Snow worked over both members of the Order with Head before hitting the Snowplow and Seated Spinebuster on Crossbones for the win.

Erick Stevens vs. Delirious (with Ultramantis Black) - King of Victory Semifinals:
Stevens threw Delirious all over the ring area but couldn't keep the demented man down. Delirious worked over Stevens with the Cobra Hold before giving him the piledriver on the concrete. Stevens nearly made it back before the count but Ultramantis held his leg. Delirious advances to the finals after a count out victory.

Claudio Castagnoli vs. Eddie Kingston - King of Victory Semifinals:
Castagnoli and Kingston nearly kicked one another's heads off during this match. Claudio scored the win with the Ricola bomb to advance to the finals.

After the match, Ted DiBiase slid into the ring and knocked Kingston unconscious with the loaded glove as he struggled to his feet. DiBiase left through the crowd before security could arrive.

Ring of Victory officials announce that Ultramantis Black is barred from the King of Victory finals! Claudio and Delirious will square off with no outside interference.

Claudio Castagnoli vs. Delirious - King of Victory finals:
Claudio and Delirious pulled out all the stops. Claudio was the crowd favorite, due in part to Delirious joining the Order. Delirous focused his attack on Claudio's neck via the Cobra Hold while Claudio focused on his power attack. Neither man could hold the advantage for long. Claudio scored the win with a big Ricola Bomb to win the King of Victory tournament!

Rick Rude vs. Claudio Castagnoli - Ring of Victory Grand Championship:
Claudio had the crowd on their feet, hitting the Springboard European Uppercut for a near fall in the opening seconds. He followed it up with a crossbody from the top for a second near fall.
