Troop had a guillotine choke on Andrews. Adorable managed to lift Troop high enough for Cazana to hit a flying clothesline to break the submission and lay out Troop for the pin.
Winners: Country Gentlemen retain the NWA United States Tag Team championship


Thrillbilly Silas Mason vs. Dan Maff
Thrillbilly was flanked by Alex Taylor instead of Pollo Del Mar. Hoss fight! Silas blocked Maff’s clothesline with a big boot. Maff loaded up for another clothesline, and Silas blocked it again. Maff went into the ropes for more power, but he ran into the Thrill Ride swinging slam.
Winner: Thrillbilly Silas Mason


NWA World Women’s Tag Team Championship
Missa Kate & Madi Wrenkowski (c) vs. against Angelina Love & Max The Impaler
M95 used quick tags and nifty teamwork doing their best to topple the Impaler, but Max was too strong. The window of opportunity opened when Max charged crashing into the ring post. Love tagged in then missed a pump kick. Kate countered for a head kick to win.
Winners: Missa Kate & Madi Wrenkowski retain the NWA World Women’s Tag Team Championshi


NWA World Women’s Television Championship
Kenzie Paige (c) vs. Ruthie Jay
Kenzie rolled her ankle on a superkick. Kylie Paige ran in for a dropkick on Jay. The referee caught it and called for the disqualification. Kenzie wasn’t actually hurt. It was a fake out to distract the referee for illegal interference. The TV title does not change hands on a DQ.
Winner: Ruthie Jay the new NWA World Women’s Television Champion

Winners: #4 Octagon Jr. & Myzteziz Jr.


Crockett Cup quarter-final

Ricky started with a low blow from behind to Murdoch as Kerry distracted the referee. The Mortons continued bending the rules to maintain control.

Knox and Murdoch decapitated Kerry with a high low combo to win.
Winners: #3 Mike Knox & Trevor Murdoch


Crockett Cup quarterfinal
#2 Tyrus & Chris Adonis defeated #10 Kratos & Odinson
Tyrus buckled his knee running into the corner untouched. Kratos went on the attack with a shoulder tackle and a body slam. The Immortals targeted Tyrus’ knee. Tyrus beefed up for a t-bone suplex then the hot tag to Adonis. The Immortals weathered the storm to double-team the Masterpiece. Kratos tried to attack Tyrus on the outside, but it sounded like he collided into the barricade off screen. When Odinson leaped for a flying attack, Adonis countered for the Masterlock submission to win.
Winners: #2 Tyrus & Chris Adonis


Crockett Cup quarter-final
#1 La Rebelion vs, #8 Blunt Force Trauma
Aron Stevens and Vampiro were the acting managers. BFT focused on power offense to isolate Bestia 666. The luchador dropkicked BFT into each other for the hot tag to Mecha Wolf. The match broke down after suicide dives from La Rebelion. Stevens rolled into the ring trying to get away from Mecha Wolf. Vampiro was crouched and waiting on the turnbuckles ready to attack, but he was pushed down to the mat. In the chaos, BFT executed a double flatliner on Mecha Wolf to win. The NWA world tag team champions are eliminated.
Winners: Blunt Force Trauma


NWA National Heavyweight Championship
EC3 (c) vs. Thom Latimer
EC3 was given the champion’s choice for his opponent, so he picked his rival. EC3 gave the option to Latimer to be honorable and defend the NWA TV title or be greedy and challenge for the national title. Latimer didn’t hesitate to choose EC3’s belt. Aggressive fisticuffs exploded at the opening bell. Very competitive match. Down the stretch, both men ran the ropes fast and furious ducking clotheslines. EC3 got the upper hand to hammer Latimer over the ropes. EC3 retrieved his title. He took a swing with the foreign object, but Latimer ducked and countered for a suplex onto the apron. EC3 rolled into the ring still holding his championship. The referee confiscated the gold. When Latimer entered through the ropes, EC3 kicked the middle cord into Latimer’s groin. This occurred behind the referee’s back. EC3 finished Latimer with a double underhook piledriver.
Winner: EC3 retains the NWA National Heavyweight Championship


Six-way Scramble
To determine the number one contender to the NWA World Junior Heavyweight Championship
Colby Corino vs. Jarron Fulton vs.Eric Jackson vs. PJ Hawx vs. Gaagz The Gymp vs. Flip Gordon vs. Joe Alonzo.
Colby Corino, the second-generation wrestler was a surprise seventh participant. He had been away since December.
First pin wins. Judais entered with Father James Mitchell to powerbomb toss Gaagz over the ropes onto a pile of bodies below. Judais carried Gaagz to the back. The finish came down to Corino and Flip. It was a back and forth dance with high impact moves. Corino sealed the deal on a jumping DDT. The prize for winning is a future title shot for the NWA World Junior Heavyweight Championship held by Kerry Morton. The champ came out for a staredown with the new #1 contender.
Winner: Colby Corino


Crockett Cup semifinal
#8 Blunt Force Trauma vs. #4 Octagon Jr. & Myzteziz Jr
BFT used their power to isolate Octagon. Hot tag to Myzteziz. The luchadores worked their high-flying, but Damage kicked out of a frog splash and a shooting star press. I think Carnage disposed of Myzteziz on the apron off camera. Carnage entered the ring as the illegal man to kick Octagon, then BFT finished with the double-team flatliner.
Winners: #8 Blunt Force Trauma


Crockett Cup semifinal
#3 Mike Knox & Trevor Murdoch vs. #2 Tyrus & Chris Adonis
Tyrus entered with his knee taped from the injury in the previous round. Adonis started the match. When he was in trouble, Tyrus tagged himself in. Murdoch and Knox immediately targeted the world champ’s knee. Tyrus hit a belly-to-belly suplex on Knox then tagged to Adonis running wild. The Masterpiece smashed a flying shoulder tackle to set up the Masterlock on Knox. Murdoch entered the ring illegally, so Adonis let go and went for the Masterlock on Murdoch. Knox charged for a running crossbody on Adonis as Murdoch ducked out of the way. Murdoch pulled Tyrus off the apron. Adonis was stranded when looking for a tag. Knox and Murdoch clobbered Adonis on a high low combo to win.
Winner: #3 Mike Knox & Trevor Murdoch


Unsanctioned match
Cyon vs. Mystery masked man
This fight came about after the masked man attacked Cyon on Night 1. Cyon was in control until the masked man reversed an Irish whip sending Cyon crashing into a trashcan. The masked man dominated from there. Cyon crawled toward his father to ask for help. Austin Idol turned his back on his son, then he popped Cyon with brass knuckles. Jordan Clearwater ran out to check on Cyon, and Idol punched Clearwater too. The referee stopped the match since Cyon was knocked out and could not continue. The masked man stacked the bodies in the ring, and Idol spit on his son.
Winner: Mystery masked man


Interview:
Pollo Del Mar spoke about her relationship with Thrillbilly Silas Mason. She blamed his actions on Night 1 as being distracted by EC3’s mind games. She didn’t believe his behavior toward her was personal. Everything is great at home. Commentary wondered if Pollo was in denial.


NWA Women’s World Championship
Kamille (c) vs. Natalia Markova
Kamille controlled with her power for much of the match. Markova rallied with kicks. When the Russian went high-risk on the turnbuckles, Kamille popped up for an avalanche German suplex. Markova kicked out. Kamille charged for a spear, but Markova blocked with a knee. The challenger hit a double arm DDT for the dramatic kick out by the champ. Markova had her eye on the spinning kick finisher in the corner. As she ran to pick up speed, Kamille exploded for a spear to win.
Winner: Kamille


Crockett Cup final
#3 Mike Knox & Trevor Murdoch vs. #8 Blunt Force Trauma
BFT isolated Knox. Hot tag to Murdoch. DDT to Carnage, but Damage broke the pin. Ref bump! Murdoch sandwiched the referee on a running splash in the corner. Murdoch planted Carnage on a pilediver, but the ref was out so no count. Aron Stevens walloped Murdoch with a loaded punch. The BFT manager placed Carnage on top of Murdoch and revived the referee. Murdoch made the dramatic kick out. Knox reentered the ring for the high low combo with Murdoch to pin Carnage.
Winners: #3 Mike Knox & Trevor Murdoch
