(Screen fades to black, followed by, superimposed in red, Match 2: Bad Company vs. Violation Nation)
(Screen then shows some back and forth action between the up and coming tag teams, tha match started with Stone and Kinard successfully isolating Alan Thompson in their corner, using svereal effetive double team maneuvers, every time Hank Thompson would try to intervene, the referee would stop him, allowing the Violation Nation to double team more effectively, finally Alan was able to make the tag, and Hank was able to clear house, and eventually, all 4 men spilled to the outside, and a full scale brawl was on, referee Willie Bennett let the match go, however, until Hank Thompson and James Stone made their way back into the ring, Stone had the match in control, and went for his Deahtdrop finisher, but Hank reversed it into a DDT, Hank then landed his patented top rope legdrop, and has Stone covered for the pin until Kinard crashed a chair over his back, prompting Bennett to disqualify the Violation Nation. Winner: Bad Company by disqualification in 6:45
(Screen goes black, followed by Match 3: Conflict vs. Carlos Canyeta)
(Conflict never was able to mount a great deal of offense in this match, he started out quickly, but Canyeta had a counter for everything that Conflict tried, as Canyeta hits a variety of moves, including a DDT, and an absolutely vicious powerbomb, Canyeta had the match in hand, until Conflict was able to reverse an attempted Canyeta suplex, and went for the Conflict's Crash. However, Canyeta countered this with his finisher, The Cutter, allowing him to score the pinfall. Winner: Carlos Canyeta in 8:22.
(Screen then shows Match 4: Jobber vs. Ricky "The Tank" O'Neill)
(In what was definitely one of the better matches of the evening, Ricky O'Neill went toe to toe with the much more experienced Jobber, and was able to get the advantage early on, with the crowd being fairly split between the two men, Jobber was able to retake the advantage with several shots to O'Neill's stomach, and several successive nice suplexes, this was another great back and forth match, though, as again O'Neill woudl take the advantage, the Jobber, though, would again prove why he is one of the top contenders in the FWF, as he slid off of an attempted O'Neill running powerslam, and hit the JobDriver in the corner, followed by the Backyard Revenge 450 splash to get the pinfall, in what was a well worked match by both men. Winner: Jobber by pinfall in 10:55.
(Next up, Match 5: JD Badluck vs. "The IKON" Abel Wicks)
(Badluck was not himself in this match, as Wicks completely dominated from the outset, as for once, he had a definite size advantage in the match. He used a variety of SuperWicks Wickerbombs to keep Badluck out of this match, totally. The match was basically in hand when he hit the IKON-maker backdrop driver on Badluck. That that still was not enough for Wicks, though, as when the referee had his back turned, he nailed Badluck with a set of brass knuckles, and then scored the pinfall. Winner: "IKON" Abel Wicks by pinfall in 4:56.
(The next match is Match 6: Black Sage vs. Golem)
(Black Sage looked more than ready for his upcoming encounter with Nevada Smith in this match, but Golem definitely did not look like himself, he wandered out to the ring, almost not caring what happened to him, and he put up absolutely no defense to anything that Black Sage did. Sage was a little worried at first, not knowing exactly what to expect, not sure if this was a trap, but quickly figured out that it wasn't. He quickly executed several power moves, and then hit the Black Plague, allowing him to get the easy victory. Golem looked as if he was in a trance the entire time, possibly stemming from his defeat in the WarGames match. After the match, however, the Extreme Ring Champion Asylum would hit the ring, and attack Sage with a barbed wire baseball bat, leaving him lying in the middle of the ring, as he left, he screamed the following, "THE HARBINGER OF CHAOS WILL NOT BE STOPPED!! You got lucky at Conquest, Sage!! But you will learn!! YES!!! You will learn that my destiny will not be DENIED!!!!!!") Winner: Black Sage by pinfall in 2:12.
(Screen goes black, followed by the letters, Match 7: Falls Count Anywhere, No Disqualification, Michael "The Dragon" Kerrigan vs. Joe Massacre)
(Another great match as there is definitely no love lost between these two, the match never even got to the ring, as Kerrigan chases Massacre into the aisle as he was making his entrance. These two brawled all over the building, angering the fans slightly, as there was little video footage, until some techs found a camera and started following them around with a handheld, these guys fought into the back arean, using anything they could on eachother, Massacre gained the first advantage, by slamming Massacre through one of the concession stands, they then brawled back into the locker room area, with Massacre bashing Kerrigan into any wall he could find, however, the match would change drastically as they were passing the locker room door with "New Breed" on it. With Massacre still dominating, Kerrigan landed a low blow, opened the door, and through Massacre in, shutting the door behind him. Kerrigan headed back to the ring, and the camera followed, leaving the fans to wonder what exactly was happening to Joe Massacre. They would find out soon enough as Joe Massacre would come staggering back to the ring, badly beaten, Kerrigan smiling from ear to ear. Massacre would stumble back into the ring, but Kerrigan would obviously take the advantage. Kerrigan would land a huge Spiccolli driver, but somehow, Massacre would miraculously kick out. With Kerrigan complaining to the ref, Massacre would somehow spear Kerrigan, and had him for the pin, but Massacre had taken out the ref as well, so there was no one to count. As Massacre was trying to revive him, Kerrigan set up a table in the corner, leading to a HUGE Northern Lights Suplex through the table! Referee Willie Bennett awoke just in time to count the pin.) Winner: Michael Kerrigan by pinfall in 22:08.
(next up, Match 8: For the Extreme Ring, Asylum vs. Maxwell Houz)
(The fans thought the previous match could not be outdone, they were wrong, these two started out in typical hardcore fashion, with Asylum doing his normal out of this world hardcore maneuvers, which including a nice split-legged moonsault, and a triple jump leg drop onto a table on the outside onto Houz. Houz would not be kept down for very long, though, as he Ziggy Jefferson came from behind on Asylum and plastered him over the head with the steel chair, allowing Houz to retake the advantage. Daisy, in the meantime, as standing over near the BYW brigade, who in the middle of the match, kidnap her, throw her in a burlap sack, and leaving the building. Asylum is too busy to notice any of this. Houz used some hardcore tactics of his own to keep the advantage, most namely his own little version of curbing. He put a chair underneath Asylum's face, and stomped on the back of his head, almost knocking Asylum out. Somehow, though, Asylum would kick out of the attmpted pinfall. After a few more power moves, Houz had decided he had enough, and proceeded to stack four tables up, and to take Asylum on top of a nearby corridor, attempting a power bomb of the already bloodied Asylum through all four tables. However, Asylum would counter, throwing Houz through 3 of the tables of the stage, with Houz landing on the fourth table, the table not breaking. Asylum sees this, and executes the most amazing shooting star press off of the corridor down through the table, allowing him to get the pinfall. He would celebrate until he noticed Daisy was missing, which sent him running to the back.) Winner and still Extreme Ring champion: Asylum by pinfall in 15:07.
(Match 9: For a Shot at the National Tag Team Title: The Odd Couple vs. The Cat Pack vs. Kraven and Flatliner)
(As the match began, Czar was whispering something to Kraven and Flatliner, and they go in lay down, as Czar does not want them being involved in the match. Scott Malec comes out and says that if they do not get back in the ring, that they will be suspended. Czar just nods, and Kraven and Flatliner immediately attack all four men in the ring, and completely clean house. Meanwhile, Czar returns the ring, bamboo canes in hand, and commences beating the crap out of both teams, getting them disqualified, and making security come and escort them out. Czar just stares down Malec and Lebron, until Lord Dread comes and stares down Czar. Czar just bows his head and allows himself to be escorted. In the ring, all four men are completely motionless. The only man to move is Da Preppy, as he manages to crawl over and cover Black Cat, with Willie Bennett making the three count, giving the Odd Couple a very controversial win and a shot at the National Tag Titles at the upcoming Battleground.) Winners: Odd Couple by pinfall in 3:47.
(Screen cuts to black, followed by MAIN EVENT: FWF National Tag Team Champions The New Breed vs. FWF National Champion Nevada Smith and FWF Frontier Champion Jean Rabesque)
(This match would prove to be a classic, as it lived up to all of it's hype. In the opening few minutes of the match, each team took turns taking control, but neither was able to gain a full advantage. The New Breed worked very cohesively as a unit, as Rabesque was finally able to be isolated. They would work him over very well, using a variety of tag team moves, including a nice MacMillan powerbomb on the much larger Rabesque. More of this would ensue, with Kearns getting tagged in. Kearns was able to lock in the Deep Freeze sleeper, but Rabesque got to the ropes, and proceeded to give Kearns a deperation low blow. With Kearns down, Rabesque was able to make the tag, but referee Willie Bennett did not see it. Smith ignored him anyway, and went straight after MacMillan, and those two began brawling on the outside of the ring. Meanwhile, Rabesque begins to work over Kearns in the ring, and executes a nice russian leg sweep. He makes the call for the Figure 4 Leglock and the crowd goes wild. He locks it in, and Kearns is screaming in agony. However, MacMillan throws Smith into the ring steps, and climbs the top rope. With Bennett checking on Kearns, MacMillan hits his Total Destruction move off the ropes, knocking Rabesque out. Kearns then rolls over and applied the Deep Freeze Sleeper on Rabesque. Rabesque does not tap out, but is obviously unconscious. Bennett raises and drops his hand three times, giving the New Breed the first fall.) First fall: New Breed by submission in 14:13.
(As the match continues, Nevada Smith was able to take back over for his team, with Kearns and rabesque still exhausted on the apron. Smith worked MacMillan over very well, but MacMillan would not be the kind of man to back down. Trying to end the match quickly, he would stun Smith and try to finish him off with his Out of Control maneuver, but Smith would counter it with a sit down powerbomb. Rabesque would be in next, and he hit an array of German suplexes on MacMillan. He, however, would be able to tag in Kearns, and Rabesque and Kearns quickly became a full scale brawl, which ended with Kearns hit a nice piledriver on Rabesque. They would work him over awhile longer, until again Smith and MacMillan were tagged in. These two got into an incredible exchange of moves resulting in several near falls by each man. Again, MacMillan would try for the Out of Control, and again it would fall. This time, Smith hit the Devil's Drop powerbomb. Rabesque cut off Kearns, allowing Smith to get the pinfall. Second fall: Rabesque and Smith in 18:05.
(By this point, each team is completely exhausted, and are you using complete desperation maneuvers, waiting for the other team to make the mistake. Every time someone tried to make a move, they really didn't have enough energy to capitalize. That changed though, as the Matthews brothers and Ricky Kabe made their way to ringside, completely mocking both Rabesque and Smith. Rabesque was enraged, and jumped to the outside, attacking all three men, Nevada shortly behind. This angers the New Breed, who jump out as well and begins fighting off everyone. Again, like at the PPV, Brian Lawler jumps the rail, and the crowd roars as he begins helping Smith and Rabesque. Black Sage makes his way out, and helps the New Breed. Referee Willie Bennett is left with no choice but to count both teams out. The show ended with all 9 men brawling in the aisleway.) Result: Draw in 23:18.
