- DLJ won this match via his MORMON SWING
Match #6: Antonino Rocca defeated Ivan Koloff (accompanied by Nikolai Volkoff, the Terrible Turk, and manager Nikita Breznikov)
- Rocca was able to start this match by catching Koloff unaware and won via his ARGENTINIAN BACKBREAKER surprisingly quickly after only a few moves
Hot Seat: The Midnight Express (Bobby Eaton and Stan Lane), who last week on Smackdown won the US Tag Team Championship from Giant Baba and Antonio Inoki, and their manager Jim Cornette are the guests
- Cornette is bragging about how the Midnight Express are finally tag team champions once again which is proof that they're finally turning the corner after being dragged down by their former association with "that no good mangy rotten scoundrel Dennis Condrey" when suddenly a man runs up and tackles Jim Cornette and starts punching him.
- The cameras show that this man is Dennis Condrey himself who was released by Major League Wrestling back in June as part of the many roster moves associated with this year's annual draft!
- After getting some good punches in on Cornette, Condrey runs away before Eaton and Lane can get to him.
No Mercy advertisement No Mercy Presented by Major League Wrestling's (MLW's) Smackdown brand Sunday October 5th The Major League Wrestling Arena Las Vegas, NV 1.

- Gotch responds that he understand that but he would prefer to have Severn as the third competitor at No Mercy instead of one of Rogers' fellow Horsemen which would have essentially made the triple threat match at No Mercy a handicap match.
Match #7, the main event: MLW Champion and United States Champion Frank Gotch defeated Buddy Rogers and Johnny Valentine (accompanied by George Hackenschmidt and Larry Zbyszko) by DQ
- this match ended when Gotch had Rogers in serious trouble in a GOTCH TOEHOLD which caused Hackenschmidt and Zbyszko to enter the ring and attack Gotch and the referee to call for the bell.
- Severn came in and helped Gotch, his tag team partner tonight but one of his two opponents at No Mercy, chase off the Four Horsemen. But in the process, Severn and Gotch bumped their backs into each other and turned around and stared right into each other's faces as tonight's show comes to an end.

-Ted DiBiase: "Because I don't want to get my own hands dirty when I can watch someone else beat up you, the common man, for me (Million Dollar Laugh)."
-Savage-T: "Well I'm calling you out Ted DiBiase. At No Mercy, I'm challenging you to a match. And to make sure I end our feud for good, let's make it a loser leaves Smackdown match!"
- Ted DiBiase: "I'm already busy at No Mercy scheduled to announce publicly my major recent business acquisition. And after that's done I won't be on Smackdown anymore anyway.

So Savage-T at No Mercy it will be you vs my man Virgil representing me in a loser leaves Smackdown match!"
- Savage-T (to Ted DiBiase): "Remember when I beat Virgil in like 3 moves on the Smackdown before the Great American Bash? I'm going to do the same thing at No Mercy which means you might already be leaving Smackdown but I'll make sure it won't be on your own terms!"

Major League Wrestling Minor League Wrestling Monday September 8, 2008 The Major League Wrestling Arena Las Vegas, NV
Backstage, Before the Show: Adam Pearce is seen talking to several other wrestlers whose identities are not revealed by the cameras.
Pearce: "I know all of you saw this past week's edition of Friday Night Smackdown where Buddy Rogers and Johnny Valentine defeated MLW Champion and United States Champion Frank Gotch and Dan "the Beast" Severn in a tag team match. And at the same time how George Hackenschmidt and Larry Zbyszko badly beat up and bloodied Antonio Inoki outside of the ring."
Pearce: "It was the Four Horsemen ending the show on top of all of Smackdown and it's time for us 5 to do the same here on Minor League Wrestling!"
Larry Sweeney (stepping up to join Pearce in the front of the room): "That's right! With Pearce's leadership and my managership, we'll dominate the rest of Minor League Wrestling."
Pearce (to the 3 unidentified wrestlers): "Today each of you three will betray a wrestler who currently considers you an ally and at the end of the show everyone will know who we are and what we stand for!"
The meeting ends with the sound of the music signaling the start of Monday Morning Minor League Wrestling. But the question is who were these other three men with Pearce and Sweeney and which wrestlers are they planning on betraying this morning?

Major League Wrestling Minor League Wrestling Monday September 8, 2008 The Major League Wrestling Arena Las Vegas, NV (First Half of the show)
In the Ring: Minor League Wrestling Commissioner Charlie Cox.
Cox has 2 pieces of big news:
1) Tonight's main event will be a Summer Slam rematch with former champion Delirious challenging new Minor League Wrestling Champion Sam Hayne!
2) Minor League Wrestling's 1st-ever PPV will be called Respect is Earned and is scheduled for September 30, 2008! And one match already signed for Respect is Earned is Necro Butcher vs Drake Younger (who recently turned on Necro Butcher)- and speaking of Necro Butcher and Younger, they're two of the participants in the opening match.
Match #1: Match #1: Drake Younger and the Naptown Dragons defeated Necro Butcher, Steve Corino, and Ricky Landell in a 6 man tag team match.
- Younger and the Naptown Dragons won this opening match when Scotty Vortekz pinned Landell via a gut check.
- Afterward, Necro Butcher brawled with his enemy and upcoming Respect is Earned opponent Younger toward the back and the Naptown Dragons ran off to assist Younger leaving Corino and Landell alone in the ring. Corino checked on his protege Landell before suddenly giving him a superkick followed by OLD SCHOOL EXPULSION.
-Adam Pearce and Larry Sweeney then appeared at the top of the ramp which Corino walked up to join them. So now it's obvious that Corino was one of the 3 mystery wrestlers talking to Pearce and Sweeney at the start of tonight's show. But who are the other two mystery wrestlers and which other two wrestlers will they turn against to signify their joining this new team led by Pearce and Sweeney?
Match #2: Adam Pearce (accompanied by Larry Sweeney and Steve Corino) defeated "Bloody" Harker Dirge by DQ.
-Dirge got some surprising strong offense in early against Pearce but lost when the action spilled outside if the ring and the referee disqualified him for savagely biting Pearce's neck.
- Dirge was then tripled team by Pearce, Sweeney, and Corino who badly beat him up and then threw him back into the ring where Pearce grabbed a microphone.
-Pearce: "That (pointing to Dirge) is an example of what will happen to everyone who tries to stand in my (Pearce) way in Minor League Wrestling once our group is completely formed tonight."
- But once again, who are these other two wrestlers set to join Pearce's new group?
Match #3: Sabu defeated J.D. Michaels (accompanied by April Hunter).
- Sabu used an extremely impressive (+5) TRIPLE JUMP MOONSAULT to pin Michaels.
Match #4: Timber defeated Belgian Brawler.
- Timber won this match via a powerslam.
End of First Half. Second Half will be posted next and includes: Samoan Island Tribe vs Heartbreak Express, an announcement from Savage-T, Super friends vs Minor League Wrestling Tag Team Champions Arik Cannon and Claudio Castagnoli in a non-title match, and Delirious challenging Minor League Wrestling Champion Sam Hayne!

In the Ring: Savage-T with a microphone.
- Savage-T says that Sam Hayne may have won the battle royal on Summer Slam's pre-show to go on and defeat Delirious for the Minor League Wrestling Championship at Summer Slam, but it was Savage-T who did all the work by throwing out 3 wrestlers until it was just him and Hayne left in the ring at the end of the battle royal. And if Sam Hayne wants the respect of Savage-T, then he'll agree to put the Minor League Wrestling Championship on the line against Savage-T at Respect is Earned.
Match #6: Super Friends (Mike Quackenbush and Chris Hero) defeated Minor League Wrestling Tag Team Champions Arik Cannon and Claudio Castagnoli (managed by Larry Sweeney) in a non-title match.

- Then Castagnoli attacked his tag team partner Cannon by giving him two RICOLA BOMBS.
-As Hero, Castagnoli, and Sweeney stunned the crowd by all leaving the ring together, they were joined at the top of the ramp by Adam Pearce and Steve Corino leaving no doubt as to the identities of the 3 mystery wrestlers on the start of tonight's show now joining Pearce's new group which Pearce announced as Evolution!
Match #7, the main event: Minor League Wrestling Champion Sam Hayne defeated Delirious to retain the title.
- In a great match that saw both men score multiple near pinfalls against each other and Delirious nearly win back the title he lost at Summer Slam, Hayne finally won when he forced Delirious to tap out to his DEVIL LOCK.
-Afterward, Hayne was attacked by all 5 members of Evolution (Pearce, Corino, Castagnoli, Hero, and Sweeney). As the other members of Evolution held Hayne down, Pearce repeatedly smashed Hayne in the face with the Minor League Wrestling Championship before announcing he was challenging Hayne to a title match at Respect is Earned!
- As all 5 members of Evolution celebrate in the ring, the show comes to an end.
