Super Crazy & Pesadilla vs. Damien 666 & Bestia 666

Damien and Bestia attacked their opponents at the bell.   All four brawled in the ring at the same time.  Crazy and Pesadilla reversed whips and sent Damien into his son.  They all battled on the floor.

When they returned to the ring, Pesadilla and Bestia had a nice back and forth sequence of moves.  Bestia cut off Pesadilla and placed a chair on him, then hit a legdrop off the ropes.  Damien 666 entered the ring as did Crazy.  Crazy psyched him out then hit a dropkick to the mush.

They all battled to the floor.  Crazy set up a table in the corner of the railing on the floor.  Back in the ring, Pesadilla nailed a superplex on Bestia.  Damien put Crazy through the table outside but the pinfall was broken up.  Bestia was nailed with a missile dropkick but it was broken up.  Pesadilla nailed a belly to belly suplex on Bestia.  Damien hit a sliding kick on Crazy.

Damien and Bestia double teamed Pesadilla.  Crazy and Pesadilla made a comeback.  Damien backdropped Crazy to the apron.  He charged and was hiptossed over the top to the floor.  Bestia drilled Pesadilla with a move but Crazy broke it up.   Pesadilla superkicked Bestia out of the ring, then hit a moonsault to the floor.

They battled back into the ring.  Bestia avoided a clothesline and hit a dive to the floor on Crazy.  Pesadilla battled with Damien and was crotched on the rope.  Damien grabbed him for a muscle buster and nailed it for the pin.

Your winners, Damien 666 and Bestia 666!

This had to be seen as disappointing.  It was just OK.  Crazy never really cut loose the way he used to and the younger talents never really broke through and shined the way they needed to really make an impression.

BLK OUT came out.  Jeez took the mic and said he didn't know what was worse, the fact this building was back or the fact fans are still chanting for ECW.  He ripped on Hat Guy as well.  Fans called for New Jack and Ruckus said F him, you and ECW.  Pitbull Gary Wolfe came out and challenged them.  Jeez said it wasn't 1995 anymore and no one is scared of him.  They said they run Philly.

Wolfe hit the ring but was overwhelmed. Da Hit Squad made the save and brawled with BLK OUT.  They teased a superbomb but BLK OUT escaped.  The crowd didn't like like that.

Extreme Rising champion Stevie Richards vs. mystery opponent

The mystery guy was Steve Corino.  He cut a promo as he walked to the ring.  He said that for a long time, he's waited for the chance to wrestle Richards.  He said that unlike the other whores in the back, he bided his time.  He said there have been reunions and homecomings and he said "No."

He said that he waited 12 years for one thing that he's never gotten to do.  He said when you talk about Steve Corino, legend comes to mind.  He said that unlike Richards, he was the World champion in this Arena.  He said that when you think of the Arena, you think of Eddie Gilbert, Public Enemy, Chris Benoit, Pitbull2 and Terry Funk,...and the common denominator is they are all dead.

He said that they all died entertaining these people and they all died for nothing.   Fans yelled Funk isn't dead and Corino said he should have died 25 years ago.  He said he hates the "Green Lanterns" that pay to come to this building and the people that come here to re-live the past.  He said there's only one way to end this and that's winning the belt, because when he becomes a champion, "companies go down."

Corino said when it's dead and the building is gone, all these drug addicts will have nowhere to go.  Corino said he hates Stevie most of all, looking for his DDP Yoga and Stevie being in shape and wanting to get reTweets.  He asked Richards how it felt being the cause of Crash Holly's death. 

Richards attacked him and beat him up on the floor.  Richards tossed him into the ring and then a chair.  He worked over Corino but was nailed with a Side Russian Legsweep into chair.   Corino worked over Richards with the chair. Corino nailed a drop toehold into the chair.

Corino choked away at Stevie Richards.  He worked over Stevie and locked in an abdominal stretch, then stuck his thumb in Richards' rear.  Corino nailed a sideslam.  The crowd chanted "Worse than Cena" at Corino.

Corino nailed the Old School Expulsion but Richards kicked out.  The began slugging it out.    Richards took control with several clotheslines.  He nailed a sideslam of his own for a two count.

Richards went for the Steviebomb but Corino slipped out and drove Richards to the mat headfirst.   Corino went for a move but Stevie drilled him with the Steviekick for a two count.   Richards locked him in a submission and Corino tapped.

Your winner and still Extreme Rising champion, Stevie Richards!

Richards did a thumbs up and down with the crowd, then returned the thumb in the bum.

Solid match.  Corino's mic work was freaking stiff.

Matt Hardy vs. Luke Hawx: Steel Cage Match

They brawled back and forth in the cage.  Hardy caught Hawx with a Side Effect for a two count.   He went for another but Hawx fought him off with elbows, dropped him and nailed a series of kneedrops.

Hawx charged Hardy and was backdropped into the cage.  Hardy tossed him into the cage several more times.   Hardy raked Hawx's face against the cage.   

They battled to the top rope. Hawx attempted a superplex but Hardy fought him off.  They battled on the top rope and I kid you not, one of the supports holding the cage popped off.  They smartly did a spot where they crashed off the ropes into the ring.  They battled back and forth with punches in the center of the ring.

Hawx launched Hardy hard into the cage several times. Hardy came back and nailed a series of legdrops for a two count.  Hawx was tossed into the cage but came back with a spinkick and covered Hardy for a two count.  Hardy cut him off and strangled him with his boots on Hawx's throat.

Reby Sky got into the cage somehow and helped Hardy work over Hawx.  Homicide hit the ring and nailed Ace Crushers on Hardy and then Sky.  The crowd chanted "ECW".

Hawx went to the top, mocked Hardy's mannerisms and hit a top rope legdrop on Hardy for the pin.

Your winner, Luke Hawx!

Good main event.
