KWB vs. Marcus Collins

They lock up to start, but neither man is willing to move, so they break the hold. They circle around a bit, then lock up again. This time, Collins powers KWB into the corner. Referee Lance Weston breaks them up. They lock up again, and now KWB powers Collins into the opposite corner. Weston tries to break them up, but Coloins nails KWB with a high knee. That's all the advantage he needs, as Collins hits a snap suplex on KWB. Collins drops an elbow, but no one is home. KWB grabs Collins' arm as he is getting up and hits a single arm DDT. Collins is up quickly, but KWB takes him down again with a leg sweep. KWB grabs a leg and turns him over in a half crab. KWB leans way back, pulling the leg. Collins finally reaches the ropes and hobbles to his feet. KWB kicks him in the stomach and hits a DDT! He covers, but Collins is too close to the ropes and is able to put his foot on them. KWB bends down to pull Collins up, but Collins grabs him in a chokehold. Collins gets to his feet and chokeslams KWB. He goes to cover, one...two...three!

Winner: Marcus Collins

Chamelion vs. Fallen Angel

Chamelion starts off with a series of suplexes, catching Fallen Angel off guard. Angel fights back, and gets the advantage when he is able to counter a body slam with a small package for a two count. Fallen Angel gets to his feet first, a nearly takes off Chamelion's head with a clothesline. A power bomb gets a two count for Fallen Angel. A second powerbomb attempt gets reversed into a back body drop by Chamelion. Chamelion gets behind Angel and locks on a sleeper hold. Angel starts to fade, but starts to fight back, and Chamelion picks him up by his head in the sleeper and turns it into an atomic drop. Fallen Angel staggers and Chamelion goes up top for a flying cross body. Angel catches him, pivots Chamelion's body and hits a powerslam for 3.

Winner: Fallen Angel

Fallen Angel heads backstage, and Chamelion soon follows. But as he does, Marcus Collins runs down and attacks him with a folding chair. More MoA come out of the crowd and prevent Panzadise from making the save. Suddenly, Ridel and Phoenix come out of the rafter and hook Chamelion into a harness and take him back up with them.

Backstage, the MoA are running down a hallway, carrying the now bound Chamelion. They take him into a boiler room, where a PWA cameraman is waiting, per Ridel's instructions. Rage, Nightstryker, Silverback and Gabrielle stand watch at the door while Ridel and Phoenix take turns hitting Chamelion with the Hurt Styk. After Chamelion is bloodied and beaten, they tie him to a steel cross and raise it of the ground, hanging from the ceiling.

Ridel: "So, Michael, you're controlling be, are you? You're the one in control here? Well, in all your evil glory and power, you just can't seem to protect the ones you love. First Jasmine, and now your dear brother. Tsk, tsk, Michael.

You see, I've been orchestrating everything you do. Everything you feel. Everything about you is mine. You try and wage this holy crusade against me, by doing what? Pouring some gasoline on my clothes? Costing my a tag-team match that was meaningless from the beginning? Michael, listen and listen good. Any time you come at me, someone you care about will be hurt. I could end you easily, but the pain you feel in watching your loved ones suffer... that is much more fun for me. And it proves my point even better, that you cannot stop me.

I own you, Michael. Lock... stock.. and barrel. So just end this facade right now. Walk in the other direction, and an instance like this will never have to happen again. However, continue to oppose me, and who wll be next? Your weakness is your kindness, Michael. Who can you touch to get to me? No one. I've isolated myself from anything I care about... all you can hope to do is cost me a match or two, and well... I can cope with that. So now what will you do? Send Chamelion here on a jet to visit Jasmine and your kid? Cut yourself from even more who you love? Stop kidding yourself. I win Michael... forever and always."

Nightstryker vs. Rage vs. Showtime (IC Title Match)

NS andRagea fight each other, excluding Showtime to start. Rage lands a haymaker on Stryker and Showtime takes the opportunity to dropkick Rage over the top rope, then cover Stryker. 1..kickout. Showtime attempts to suplex NS, but NS hooks his leg behind and reverses it into a brainbuster and covers, but Rage grabs his foot and pulls him out of the ring. Rage and Nightstryker brawl outside the ring. Rage pulls up the mat and drives to piledrive Stryker on the concrete, but gets back dropped on the guard rail instead. Showtime comes flying over the top rope with a suicide dive, but NS sidesteps and Showtime hits the guard rail, too. Nightstryker rolls back into the ring, but Rage follows him in. Both men are up on their feet. NS scoops Rage up and hits the Mindbender for the win!

Winner: Nightstryker

After the match, the MoA swarm the ring. Collins, Gabrielle, and Silverback stand guard while Ridel and Phoenix lay into Rage with baseball bats. They leave him convulsing on the ground and Ridel begins to speak into a microphone.

Ridel: "Brian... poor, ignorant Brian. You could have been one of my best. The King admired the shear power within you... but alas, you were too wild to tame, and now it's come to this. You wanted to pretend you controlled me. Idiot. There are only two men in the whole world who are above me, the King and his Heir. You are neither, so now I end you. Or rather, end your services to me.

Because that's all you ever were, a servant.

Anyone who turns on the Masters shall be delt with... that's the way it's always been, and nothing is changing. I'm sh owing the world exactly the kind of power I have, over everyone. Including President Robinson.

That's right, Prez, who do you think you are? You're going to try and take us down now as well? I thought you were smarter than that. I thought you were one of the bright ones. Well, my World Champion here isn't going to falter, ever." [He points to Silverback, and Silverback smiles wickedly.]

Ridel: "Now that Silverback has control of his body, nothing is going to stop him. He'll crush anyone you send forth to try and dismantle him, and he'll do so with extreme prejudice. I don't think you understand exactly what kind of animal you're dealing with here. Allow me to demonstrate... Brian, I think you'll do the trick."[Silverback enters the ring, picks Rage up and hits a massive powerbomb, then applies the ankle-lock on the helpless wrestler.]

Ridel: "I think I've made my point. So Robinson, while I could get involved, Silverback can more than take care of himself. That's why he fights for me. I offer him an entire hunting ground, an endless supply of weaklings for him to dismantle.

So this is my final warning. Stay out of my business, and you won't be hurt. Try and stop me, and you'll be ended... just like Brian Anderson, here."

Panzadise vs. Chase Wilson

The matches starts off and they lock up, with the commentators noting how many of the people in the arena pick Dise's matches to go to the bathroom now that he's changed his persona. Panzadise starts it off with a side hammerlock. He turns it into a regular hammerlock then into a headlock. He holds the headlock for a few seconds before Wilson backs him into the ropes and sends him across the ring. Panzadise comes back and tries to slide between Wilson's legs, but Wilson drops to his knees above Panzadise's chest and starts hammering his face. The ref warns him and when he looks Panzadise kicks him in the back and he falls off. Panzadise picks him up, whips him into ropes. Panzadise bends over and hits a back body drop. Panzadise turns around and tries for a quick legdrop, but Wilson rolls and he lands hard. Wilson runs into the ropes, comes back and sit-out dropkicks Panzadise in the face and he falls back.

He tries for the powerbomb but only gets him half way up. Wilson kicks and comes back down, the back-body drops Panzadise who, in turn, holds on and goes for a sunset flip.

He follows young in and jumps onto his shoulders, going for a hurricanrana out of the corner. Silverback counters with a high-angle powerbomb, and goes for the pin. 1...2...3!
