MCW Tag Team champions Napalm & Solo with Amber Rodriquez vs. Adam Flash & Ronnie Zukko
The Tag champions are undefeated here. They look really freaking physically impressive. Napalm and Flash, who used to work a lot in CZW and other Northeast indies a decade ago, started out. Napalm used his power to take down Flash until he was caught with a dropkick to the legs.
Flash was worked over but caught Napalm with a rana. Zukko and Solo tagged in and battled back and forth. Flash and Zukko nailed a series of moves in the corner on Solo, who stayed on his feet. Flash nailed an X-Factor off the ropes but Napalm broke up the pinfall.
Zukko went for a bodypress off the ropes but something went wrong and he slipped and didn’t come close to Solo. Solo grabbed him and slammed him down roughly. The tag champions began working over Zukko with some impressive double team moves. Napalm drilled him with a leaping kick that was even more impressive because of his size.
They destroyed Zukko with a double shoulderblock. Napalm used a powerbomb for a two count. Flash tagged in and all four began battling. Flash superkicked Solo as he went for their finisher. Zukko was backdropped over the top to the floor. Amber Rodriguez tossed the belt into the ring and Flash was drilled and pinned.

Bruiser vs. Chuck Lennox
Everyone battled to the back. Bruiser worked over Lennox who tried to run out but found his path of escape blocked by the returning Flash and Zukko. Bruiser grabbed him and nailed a T-Bone suplex, then locked in a submission, forcing him to tap.
Short but entertaining bonus match where Lennox, who had been interfering all night, got his just deserts.

Devon gave a speech saying he was part of an important revolution in ECW, then went on to WWE where he and others stole the show several years ago in TLC matches. He said that when he and Bubba split up in TNA, they got back together one more time. He said that if it wasn’t the fans, none of those promotions would have been there and none of them would be there today. He thanked everyone for the support they have given him over the years. Devon said he loves MCW and anytime Dan McDevitt calls, he will be there, because he had a hell of a time. He said that everyone in the back is working their asses off to entertain and when it’s time for him to retire, he would be honored to be an agent behind the scenes for any of their matches. He saluted the fans and testified. Great speech.
MCW’s Tara came out and thanked everyone for being here. She said this is the 14th annual Shamrock Cup and the 12th year she’s been part of the event. She said this is a show that means the most to everyone. She said MCW’s Commissioner Kylie Pierce has been teasing a big announcement and tonight, she’s going to make the announcement.
