We're on tape with hosts Mark Weight, Michael Hawk, and Dr. McMann. Go over main matches. Say from top to bottom, this is one of the greatest cards in the short history of XWL.

Last second addition

Dead End walks to the ring. He says Heat Seeker and his Lair disgusts him. Challenges Heat to a match.

Dead End vs. Heat Seeker

The match quickly turns into a fight. Dead End gets the advantage early, but does not go for a pin. He goes to work on Heat's injured back, but Heat gets dirty with low blows and starts using highflying moves. Heat cannot pin Dead End though. After they trade near pins, Heat spinebusts Dead Ebd and puts on the sharpshooter. Dead End passes out but does not give up.

Electro vs. Seizure

Seizure is impressive and the match quickly becomes a classic as both men give 100 percent to each move. The fans are standing as move after move Electro performs from the top rope into the ring and onto the floor. Seizure counters those moves with his own and innovates some new moves (a powerslam from the apron into the first row!). Electro finds some reserve and uses the spinekick for a victory.

Monkeywrench + Fracture vs. Lowlife + Ulysses
--No Rules, Falls Count Anywhere, Two Referees--

Lowlife and Monkeywrench go after each other around the ring as Fracture and Ulysses square off inside. Fracture uses power moves to pick apart Ulysses. Lowlife comes in for a save and attacks Fracture. Ulysses and Monkeywrench fight outside. Eventually, Monkeywrench gets in the ring and nails Lowlife with the neckwrencher, but Ulysses makes the save. Ulysses and Fracture end up fighting into the fans and several pinfalls are tried.

Lowlife escapes a second attempt at a cover. Ulysses runs back to the ring and double team Monkeywrench. Fracture back in is dominated by Lowlife and Ulysses. Lowlife nails the lowlife and pins Fracture. Monkeywrench continues to fight Lowlife.

Alley vs. Victor Slaughter

Another outstanding match. They trade power move for move. Alley escapes several pin attempts. Slaughter dominates the middle, wearing down Alley, but Alley comes back and nails a Russian leg sweep, a piledriver, a double clothesline, and finally, a mugger.

Slaughter gets a foot on the rope at the last second. Slaughter recovers, and nails a top rope clothesline.

No. Alley gets a shoulder up. Alley later drop toes holds Slaughter onto the middle rope, then nails a second mugger. Cover.

3. He gets the pin.

Reave vs. Raider

Brutal match. Raider hits several suplexes on Reave on the outside and into the stands. As the match becomes a fist fight, they head up to the second level. Several punches later, Reave is knocked backward over the side and drops into the fans below! Raider jumps down and nails an elbow! Somehow, Raider carries Reave back to the ring. After one ugly belly to back suplex, Raider gets the pin.

Malik + Spector vs. Magnus Murray Head + Puncture ©
--Tag Titles--

Puncture and Murray dominate the first half with tough moves, but Malik and Spector gain control and badly hurt Puncture, who is cut open after being rammed into the steel steps three times. Murray gets in and cleans house, but Malik and Spector easily double up on him and use a powerbomb/neckbreaker to get the win. New champions.

Bat vs. Serpent

Bat and Serpent start at the entranceway and brawl all the way to the ring. Serpent dominates, but Bat gets a few good shots in. Bat fights his way back into the match and nails a tornado DDT, but Serpent gets his foot on the rope. When Serpent regains control, Heat Seeker walks out to the ring. As Serpent has Bat ready for a brainbuster, Heat grabs Serpent's ankle and Bat falls on Serpent. Serpent kicks out and goes out after Heat. The ref counts.

Bat wins by count out.

Nihilist vs. Crusher

Great fight, but neither goes for a pin for a long time. Nihilist goes after Crusher's knees, but Crusher only gets angry and starts choking out Nihilist. Crusher then nails a gorilla splat.

And again.

Then he climbs the ropes and frogsplashes Nihilist. After a two count, Crusher pulls up Nihilist! Crusher slams Nihilist over the top rope. Crusher frogsplashes Nihilist on the concrete! He rolls Nihilist back in. After a fourth gorilla splat, he covers Nihilist.

Crusher gets the pin.

Orion vs. Coldblooded
--No DQ--

Coldblooded runs into the ring and the fight is on. It becomes a fist fight quickly and dirty even faster as they go for eyes and low blows. Outside, they head into the stands, kicking, kneeing and hitting each other non-stop. Orion drops Coldblooded a couple of times, but Coldblooded trips up Orion and they brawl on the floor. Back in the ring, Coldblooded throws Orion into a corner and as he charges, Orion grabs the handheld camera from a cameraman standing on the apron and Coldblooded smashes into it headfirst!

Orion goes for the cover.

Coldblooded kicks out.

Coldblooded, a bloody mess, takes the fight outside again and throws Orion into a wall and hits him over and over in the face. Orion fights back, and back in the ring, he hits the TWA!

Coldblooded kicks out. Orion sets Coldblooded up on the top rope for some move, but never executes it, as both men topple to the floor hard. Both unsuccessfully try to get up.

The ref calls for medics.

Result: draw.

Lucas is in command at the start and toys with Python. But Python recovers and starts to attack Lucas body part by body part. As Python is up on the top rope to perform a move, Bram Corbett runs down and pushes Python off to the mat. Corbett starts punching Python. Lucas gets up and shoves Corbett, who responds with a dropkick to Lucas' face. Python escapes.

No contest.

The Prowler vs. Edan LePage

LePage uses his power to overpower Prowler's attempts at offense. After minutes of agony, Prowler fights back for a bit and nails a spinebuster. He tries for an inverted suplex, but LePage simply kicks Prowler away. LePage nails a guillotine leg drop and a chokeslam. He signals for a powerbomb. Zohar walks to the ring, gets on the apron and waves at LePage. LePage sees him. The ref tries to reason with Zohar.

From behind, Serpent knocks out LePage with brass knuckles to the back of his head. Zohar and Serpent beat on LePage until Heat Seeker and Python come in for the save.

No contest.

Slaughter starts quick, easily handling Hack. But Hack comes back, looking like the dirtiest wrestler as he punts Slaughter's crotch, then strangles Slaughter on the ropes while sitting on his back. As the fight heads outside, Hack dives after Slaughter, knocking Slaughter into the first row.

The fight goes upstairs. There, Hack chops Slaughter closer and closer to the brink. Slowly, they head back to the ring. Hack nails an inverted piledriver and slaps on the spinebreaker. Slaughter hits HV in the ribs and breaks free! Slaughter pounds Hack and gets him onto the top rope for a superplex. Both men are exhausted. The ref counts to 8.

Hack once again puts on the spinebreaker. Slaughter screams in pain. Heat Seeker runs in and kicks at Hack, then Slaughter. Causing this to be a no contest.

Heat corner splashes Hack and puts him in the sharpshooter. Edan LePage and Python attack Slaughter. Serpent and Zohar run down and the Lairs fight to a stalemate. Raider then runs down, followed by the Vipers, Bram Corbett, Crusher and the Death Stalkers. After a long brawl, Crusher is left alone in the ring and is screaming for Slaughter.
