Munno says he's gotta earn his shot. Canuck says Death Warrent is a piece of trash, and he's getting a shot. Death Warrent then storms in, and nails JC with a pipe. He picks him up, and powerbombs Canuck through Munno's desk. Thunder starts off with a bang!)

Destroyer vs The Ultimate
*Since the Ultimate resolved his identity crisis, he's been on a mean streak, and Destroyer was in the path of this freight train tonight. Ultimate came out strong, hitting Destroyer with a flury of punches. However this match wasn't very old when Crypt Keeper and Crush came down to the ring for a closer look. Ultimate was dominating the match, and was going for his finisher early, when the Keeper and Crush entered the ring, and attacked Ultimate. The ref called for the bell, giving the decision to Ultimate by DQ. Keeper and Crush continued the assault on Ultimate, and Destroyer joined in. After security isolated Ultimate from the trio, Destroyer grabbed the mic, and introduces this clique as "Havoc"* Ultimate defeated Destroyer by DQ

TV Title Match
Hell Knight (c) vs Mr. America
*This match was in it's early stages, when the new faction Havoc came down to the ring, and attacked both men. Soon after, however, Ultimate came running down to the ring, slightly limping, with a crowbar in his hand. He slid in the ring, and Havoc fled. Ultimate helped up Hell Knight and Mr. America*

Hardcore Title Match
John Casey (c) vs Crypt Keeper
*This match started in the back, as Crypt Keeper attacked Casey in the locker room. After throwing Casey into the locker room stalls, and after a few chairshots, the 2 left the dressing room, and continued their brawl backstage. Late in the match, the two were battling by unused stadium bleachers. Keeper grabbed a chair, and nailed Casey, sending him to the ground. CK picked him up, and placed him on a nearby table. He climbed the bleachers, looking to hit some type of high rish manouver. As he was climbing, Casey regained himself, and climbed up after him. The 2 exchanged punches, with each punch nearly sending it's recipient crashing through the table. Casey then went downstairs, and nailed CK with a low blow. He then grabbed Keeper, and bulldogged him off the bleachers, through the table. He pinned Keeper, and the ref made the 3 count. After the 3 count was made, the other 2 members of Havoc, Crush and Destroyer, attacked Casey. But following them closely was Ultimate, Mr. America, and Hell Knight.

Lazerus & Dangerous Duo vs Venom/Bossman/Judge
*This match pitted the New Revolution vs Hell's Angels, in a battle for stable supremesy. Lazerus took it to Bossman early, making quick tags with his NR partners. They isolated the big man, and prevented Venom and The Judge from getting involved. Dark Defience then made their way down to the ring, and started brawling with the Dangerous Duo. Law & Order joined the brawl outside, and Lazerus and Venom battled in the ring. Hell Knight hits the ring. Him and Lazerus begin fighting. Suddenly, the lights go out. The come on a few short seconds later, and Death Warrent is standing behind Venom. DW turns Venom around, and chokeslams the man he faces this Sunday at Clash. DW leaves through the crowd, but is met by Johnny Canuck, and the 2 begin brawling. Lazerus clotheslines Hell Knight over the top rope, and goes back to Venom. He picks him up, and nails the Execution to pick up the victory. Dark Defience, Dangerous Duo, and Law & Order continue brawling on the outside, as 3WCW officials try to contain them.

Tag Team Title Match
Dark Defiance (c) vs Gravedigger/Mike Awesome
*As we saw earlier, Gravedigger left the arena for an unknown reason. This leaves Mike Awesome to fight for the tag titles by himself. As expected, Dark Defience dominated this match, taking advantage of their strength in numbers. It didn't take long before Cyco hit the Str-8 Jacket, to pick up the victory. Law & Order quickly hit the ring, follwed by the Dangerous Duo. The 3 teams renew their brawl, as 3WCW officials try to break it up. However the big question coming out of this match is, why did Gravedigger leave Mike Awesome?*

Johnny Canuck vs Rage
*With Canuck waiting in the ring, Rage's music hit, the fans rose to their feet, and Rage raced down to the ring, and the match was on. The 2 exchanged puches, until Rage took advantage, hitting Canuck with a standing dropkick. Canuck recovered quickly, but was nailed with another dropkick. JC then left the ring to the outside to regain himself. However Rage hopped up on the top rope, and flew towards JC, connecting with a high risk move. Rage picked up JC, and set him up for the Outrage Bomb through the announce table, but Canuck countered with a backdrop, sending Rage crashing to the table, but not breaking it. JC started pummling Rage, and eventually threw him back in the ring. Canuck picked up Rage, threw him off the ropes, and nailed him with a clothesline. JC went to drop the elbow, but Rage rolled away. JC went again, but the same result. Rage picked himself up, ran off the ropes, and hit a flying forearm. JC got up, and Rage hit him with another.

He goes to throw Rage off the ropes, but Rage counters with a kick to the stomach, and has him set up for the Outrage bomb again.

Kaige nails DW with an elbow, runs off the ropes, and takes down the big man with a clothesline. DW regains himself quickly. Kaige comes at him again with a clothesline, DW ducks it. Kaige bounces off the ropes again, and Death Warrent nails him with a tilt-a-whirl backbreaker. DW then went off the ropes, and hit a leg drop on Kaige. He makes the pin, but Kaige kicks out after 2. Johnny Canuck is now making his way down to the ring, and he joins the announce team. Death Warrent, somewhat distracted by JC's presence, continues his assault on Kaige. Later on in the match, with Kaige riding the momentum, Death Warrent catches Ryan coming off the top rope, and hits a death valley driver. Death Warrent gives the signal for The Executioner. At this point, Canuck has had enough. He throws down his headset, and trips up Death Warrent, causing him to straddle the top turnbuckle. Kaige then nails Canuck with a punch, sending him to the ground. DW then grabs a distracted Kaige, and nails the Executioner. He makes the pin, but they're too close to the ropee.
