Harris pinned Taz after the Death Sentence in 0:10:00. Rating: *** 1/2 (The Sandman no-showed.) Dreamer came to the ring for the match and he said that Sandman couldn't be here tonight, but he had this match and a shot to be the number one contender to the tag titles. Tommy asked Tazz if he wanted Sandmans spot. Tazz accepted, but they fell to the number one contenders Americas most wanted. AMW will get a title shot tomorrow night in Columbus. CM Punk pinned Michael Shane with the Pepsi Plunge in 0:11:29. Rating: **** (CM Punk retained the X Division Title.) [Raven and Jim Mitchell interfered against Michael Shane.] CM Punk takes down another number one contender in Michael Shane. The Refs were not happy with Raven and Mitchel being at ringside.

Rating: *** 1/4 Vampiro gets an easy win over Tazz, who was visably exhausted from his tag match from earlier.

Rating: ***** (The Can-Am Express retained the USWA Tag Team Titles.)

The Can Am Express defeated Jerry Lynn and Corino in a 5 STAR MATCH. This match might have gone to the champs, but Corino and Lynn have brought themselves to a new level by taking them to the limits. AMW tried to get involved and the ref was about to DQ Lynn and Corino, they pleaded their case and they got a continuation. After total exaustion, Lynn was pinned after a NASTY cobra clutch suplex. Cam Am Express told them they could get a rematch later on down the road. Card rating: *** 3/4 Match observations:
