Backstage, Jeremy Borash was worried when Joseph Park found him and informed him tonight’s match against Scott Steiner and Josh Mathews would be No DQ. Borash freaked out and asked if he was trying to get him killed. Park told him not to be afraid to call on old friends. I am hoping those old friends are not Puppet or the Johnsons.

They aired a video piece on Moose and DeAngelo Williams vs. Chris Adonis and Eli Drake.

Grand Champion Moose & NFL star DeAngelo Williams vs. Chris Adonis & Eli Drake

Winners: Moose and DeAngelo Williams

After the match, someone called an audible and Moose attacked Adonis and Drake. They pulled Drake back into the ring and Moose powerbombed him through the table. If at first you don’t succeed….

McKenzie interviewed EC3. He said James Storm was a legend here. He said that he was a foundation of the company, so he’s going to rip apart brick by brick, piece by piece. He said James is a man but he’s going to be emasculated and mutilated. He said he was the top of the card and “this company needs me.”

Strap Match: EC3 vs. James Storm

They are attached by the wrist with a long leather strap. Storm goes nuts on offense, beating EC3 in the corner and lashing him with the strap. He pulled a retreating EC3 back into the ring and lashed him across the back. They went to the floor where Storm pulled EC3 into him and elevated and slammed him down on the corner of the apron outside.

EC3 gained control and began choking Storm with the strap. He slammed Storm’s head into the apron. EC3 brought him back into the ring and cinched in a cravat, but had the strap wrapped around Storm’s neck first. He whipped Storm with the strap but that only fired up Storm. Storm was whipped into the ropes and came off with a big forearm. He gained the momentum, nailing an enziguiri on EC3 in the corner. Storm went to the top but was pulled down by EC3.

EC3 went under the ring and brought handcuffs into the ring. He tried to cuff Storm to the steel connecting the buckles to the ringpost but Storm fought back and it was EC3 who ended up cuffed. EC3 spit in his face, so Storm unloaded and whipped him over 30 times. The referee got the key and unlocked EC3, who was crumpled down on his knees in the corner.

EC3 went to attack Storm but was cut off and hit with his own finisher, the One Percenter for a near fall. EC3 unhooked himself and slid to the outside. Storm went to the floor. EC3 grabbed the strap and yanked it, snapped Storm into the ringpost. He hit the One Percenter on Storm and scored a two count. They played it up like it was a big moment where Storm dug down deep. Storm fired up and hit the Last Call superkick on EC3 but collapsed, with the idea being that he was still out of it from the ringpost. The referee told EC3 to pin him and end it.

EC3 hit a double underhook driver instead and scored the pin, with the idea that he could have done the “right thing” for a fellow competitor but instead only cared about making a point and hurting Storm. They rushed EMTs and Bob Ryder to the ring with a stretcher. The idea here was to put some heat on EC3 for being a piece of trash.

Backstage, Karen Jarrett was asking Dutch Mantel where Bruce Prichard is. Mantel said he’s been calling him for the last hour as he was supposed to be here, but he wasn’t there. Karen said they are going to have to talk about this tomorrow. Mantel left Bruce a voicemail.

No DQ: Jeremy Borash & Joseph Park vs. Scott Steiner & Josh Mathews

During the pre-match video package, they made it pretty clear Abyss would be involved.

James Storm was still sitting on the stairs at ringside being tended to.

They had the Pope join Flores and West on commentary.

It was Joseph Park who came to the ring. Mathews and Park started out. Mathews hit several kicks but couldn’t muster the size or momentum to knock down Park. Borash tagged in but Mathews faked him out and tagged in Steiner. Borash looked like he now had brown trousers and tagged out to Park.

Steiner gained control easily on Park and worked him over with an elbowdrop. Park rolled to the outside. Mathews went to the top and dove on Park and Borash, taking them down. He called Steiner to join him and Steiner grabbed a piece of barricade. They chased Borash and Park to the back…and it turned into a pre-taped segment that was right out of the Broken Hardys universe or an episode of Scooby Doo. The heels chased our heroes, who tricked them into being shot with a fire extinguisher.

The guy who was attacked by Decay showed up and Steiner and Mathews carjacked him. This was being played entirely for laughs. Steiner chased them in the car. Steiner left the car and went after Park. Borash was chased into a pool by Mathews, who he backdropped into a pool. Borash attacked Mathews with a flip into the pool and they battled underwater, where SHARK BOY arrived to bite Mathews and cheer on Borash.Park sent through a wall and encountered his FATHER JAMES MITCHELL, who handed him the Abyss mask.

We went back to live action as Borash returned to ringside with Mathews and Steiner in hot pursuit. Robert Irvine, at ringside, tried to help but was unable to. They worked over Borash in the ring and Steiner had Josh put Borash in the Steiner Recliner. Shark Boy’s music hit and he charged into the ring, attacking Steiner and Mathews. He was caught and suplexed by Steiner.

They locked JB in the Steiner Recliner but out came James Mitchell on the stage. This distracted them enough for Abyss to slide into the ring and attack Steiner and Mathews. Mitchell handed Abyss a bag of tacks. Abyss set him up for a chokeslam into it but Mathews kicked him low. Abyss grabbed him and nailed a Black Hole Slam. Borash came off the top with a splash with his hands landing right on the tacks. OUCH. Abyss made the pin.

Winners: Jeremy Borash and Abyss

Borash’s hands were all full of tacks and bloody and he looked to be in a lot of pain after.

GFW champion Alberto el Patron was interviewed and praised that his father Dos Caras was going to be in his partner. He was asked if he was concerned about King Mo. He said that his father was the toughest man he’s ever met, has kicked ass all over the world and Lashley could bring Donald Trump tonight and Patron would still win.

Eddie powerbombed his wife on Davey and they both pinned Richards for a two count. Eddie went for a piledriver but Love attacked him with a kendo stick. There was a spot where they ended up crashing down into a chair in a scary way. Love grabbed a cup of tacks and poured them into Edwards’ open mouth, then had Davey superkick him in the face.

Alisa hit the ring to make the save, bloodying Love’s nose legitimately and kicking Davey low. Eddie and Alisa set up a table and placed Davey on it. Eddie climbed a ladder, but Love went after him. Alisha went underneath and powerbombed her off through the remnants of a table. Eddie and Richards hit a sunset flip powerbomb off the top of the ladder through the table and scored the pin.

Ki went for the Ki Krusher on the apron but Dutt escaped and landed on his feet but was shoved hard into the buckles. Dutt went for a sunset flip into the ring but Ki rolled through and went for the Warrior’s Way again but Dutt moved and Ki hurt his ankle.
