Scaffold Match
The Russians(c) (Volkoff and Zhukov) vs The Rock and Roll Express
The Russians defeat the Rock and Roll Express to retain the ACW Tag Team Championships after throwing both Gibson and Morton off the scaffold, at 15:27 injuring Morton. This match was another back and forth match, that saw both teams hit their finishers. Ultimately, the Russians were just too powerful for the Express to overcome. After the match, as the Russians were celebrating, their music gets cut off, and new music starts playing. The Russian’s faces go from celebration, to confusion, to disbelief, then fear, as the Pit Bulls enter the arena, pointing at the Russians, then the motioning of strapping the belts around their own waists.
