The Hurricane & Rosey w/ Mighty Molly vs. “Killer” Karl Krupp & “The Acadian Giant” Kurrgan
We get this show started off in style with a big tag team street fight. The evil forces of “Killer” Karl Krupp and “The Acadian Giant” are battling enemies on several fronts. A few weeks ago, they attempted to completely destroy our heroes, the dynamic duo of The Hurricane and Rosey. Samoa Joe came to their aid. Last week, they conducted a violent assault on Joe, which was only stopped when The Hurricane and Rosey came to his aid. Now, the two teams are engaged in a street fight and, one has to wonder – as Ed Whalen and Jeremy Borash do – whether Samoa Joe poised to appear. This match turns hectic very quickly. Trashcans, chairs and other assorted pieces of sheet metal come into play rather quickly. Fighting takes place all around ringside and up and down the entrance aisle. It’s a slobberknocker of an affair that sees “Killer” Karl Krupp bring his riding crop into play to cause The Hurricane a great deal of pain. The two biggest/largest men in AGPW, Rosey and Kurrgan brawl into the crowd and away from the action.
The Hurricane is only spared a severe beating when, predictably, Samoa Joe comes to his aid. Still sporting whip marks from the week before, Joe arrives on the scene and incapacitates Krupp with the Coquina Clutch, which results in a disqualification loss for our superheroes. However, they get the moral victory and appear to conquer the forces of evil when Rosey and Joe hold Kurrgan in place for a shining wizard kick from The Hurricane and “Killer” Karl Krupp gets placed on a table on the outside and Rosey leaps off of the second turnbuckle to give him a splash that breaks the table and sees Krupp hit the floor hard. After the match, Joe takes a microphone and reveals that Krupp isn’t out of the woods just yet. At MAYHEM IN MONTRÉAL, they will square off in a Riding Crop on a Pole Match. Joe really does want to kill the “Killer.”
Official Decision: “Killer” Karl Krupp & “The Acadian Giant” Kurrgan win by disqualification
*Commercial Break 1*
Before the rest of tonight’s show is allowed to take place, the Mash-Up World Heavyweight Champion, Hollywood Hulk Hogan, and the Illuminati’s AGPW ring general, “Superstar” Billy Graham come to the ring, accompanied by “Classy” Freddie Blassie. It’s time to lodge a giant complaint about what happened in last week’s main event. Blassie complains about poor officiating and lax security, which combined to allow “Macho Man” Randy Savage to interfere in the Illuminati’s business and alter the outcome of the match. Hollywood Hulk Hogan complains that Savage’s actions have resulted in him having to defend his title against Christian Cage, an opponent he claims is underwhelming and not deserving of the honour, at MAYHEM IN MONTRÉAL. He’s not afraid of facing Christian Cage and says that he will defeating him with ease. The reason his blood boils is because Cage is such an underwhelming choice that it is going to result in the worst PPV match purse (pay day) of his entire career. For that reason, he wants Savage’s head on a stake. “Superstar” Billy Graham doesn’t take kindly to taking a loss in his first major AGPW contest and he pins the blame squarely on Savage. He can tell that by doing what he did last week, Savage has made the statement that he wants to try his hand at competing against the premier “Superstar” of AGPW and all of professional wrestling. He wants to get a piece of Savage, if he has the guts, in the ring, tonight!
“Pomp and Circumstance” comes on over the arena sound system, thus signaling the arrival of the fearless “Macho Man” Randy Savage. He enters the ring, walks right up to “Superstar” Billy Graham, rips the microphone out of his hands and screams “Oh yeah!” into the microphone. Then, he removes his sunglasses and we see that it is not Savage, but rather it is François Kazarian posing as the Macho Man! He says that he knows that he’s not in the same league as either of Graham or Hogan and that because he lacks the ability to think rationally, it leads him to make stupid decisions like accepting the challenge. In fact, his Neanderthal-like angry passion makes him want to get the most embarrassingly severe beating of his entire life by making the stupid decision to ask for a tag team match against Graham and Hogan. Then, he introduces his tag team partner for the evening, Christian Cage.
Of course, it isn’t actually Cage, but Christopher Daniels dressed up just like “Captain Charisma”. He comes to the ring and says that because he’s the most delusional fish in the pond, he believes that in spite of his diminutive stature, he believes that he can defeat both Graham and Hogan without outsider interference. That’s why he accepts Savage’s invitation says that they should have a match right now. Graham and Hogan and ready to get it on. Everyone knows that this match is going to be a total sham. Some fans even toss trash towards Hollywood Hulk Hogan and Californiacation, the Illuminati’s AGPW affiliated faction, for the total lack of respect they are showing to Cage and Savage. The fake match begins with both Kazaran and Daniels taking one soft punch each, and hitting the mat as if they were knocked out cold. When Graham pins the fake Macho Man and Hogan pins the fake Captain Charisma, a referee begins the crooked dual pinfall counts. He gets to two when…
… the real Macho Man and Captain Charisma break it up and attack everything in sight. They drive the entire membership of the Illuminati from the ring and then tell their enemies that if they want to have a tag team match, they’re here and they’re ready to do it. Hogan and Graham decline and head for the exits, but as they approach the AGPW entrance set, Commissioner Billy Two Rivers appears and declares that they cannot turn back now. They already accepted the challenge and he will force them to make good on it in tonight’s main event when Hollywood Hulk Hogan and “Superstar” Billy Graham will face the real Christian Cage and “Macho Man” Randy Savage!
*Commercial Break 2*
VS. 
“Primetime” Elix Skipper vs. Suicide
This is a pretty fast-paced match in the style of TNA’s X division. It features two more than capable human highlight reels. “Primetime” Elix Skipper has been on a steady winning streak since his recent return to AGPW after a long layoff from action. Suicide is one of The Blue Blazer’s associate “crime fighters,” who was last seen with his partner, Manik, making a giant mess of the Commissioner’s office. Both wrestlers show off some excellent high flying skills. They also showcase their excellent acrobatic skills with their innovative use of the ring ropes. Skipper sees poised to pull off yet another victory, but he fails to execute Sudden Death, which Suicide turns into a sunset flip for a 2-count. Skipper runs to the ropes, but face plants into the mat when he gets tripped up by Suicide clone, Manik. As Skipper tries to get back to his feet, Suicide pulls him into the Suicide Solution to score the pinfall victory.
Official Decision: Suicide wins by pinfall
SoCal Val is joined by Kaientai, who were schedule for a backstage interview last week, but lost their interview time to Sensational Sherri when he arrived on the scene screaming her lungs off. It scared them away and so they lost their chance to speak about Funaki’s excellent showing in the tag team battle royal from the week before. Here, they try to conduct this interview once again. Val asks them if they think they can parlay Funaki’s strong showing in the battle royal from two weeks ago into their regular tag team matches. Just as they are about to respond, Candice Michelle happens upon the scene. She says that she really desperately needs this interview time, while acting very flirtation towards Taka and Funaki. Then, she whispers something to both of them. They look really excited about whatever it is she said. They walk away as she waves to them and tells them that she’ll see them later.
Candice Michelle’s antics have paved the way for “Marvelous” Marc Mero to walk onto the interview set and cut a promo about how he is going to defeat Rowdy Roddy Piper at MAYHEM IN MONTRÉAL, stating that Piper made the biggest mistake of his career last week when he signed his name onto the match contract. He takes offense to the Commissioner’s decision to declare that the signature of the Blue Blazer belongs to him, but then goes on to say that it doesn’t really matter much to him and that making that decision just means that Piper will have to suffer the consequences of Billy Two Rivers’ extremely poor decision making. At MAYHEM IN MONTRÉAL, Mero says, everyone in the world will get to marvel at how he will give Piper the worst defeat of his entire career.
*Commercial Break 3*
Marc Blondin is joined by “Classy” Freddie Blassie, who has several harsh words for Christian Cage and “Macho Man” Randy Savage. He runs them down and says that the Illuminati has taken great offense to them both for interfering in their business. He reiterates that the Illuminati intends to take over the entire wrestling world, including AGPW, and that anyone who tries to stand in its way will have to be eliminated. Since Cage and Savage have decided to oppose the Illuminati, Hollywood Hulk Hogan and Californiacation will snuff them out. Blassie goes on to reveal that a match has been signed pitting “Superstar” Billy Graham versus “Macho Man” Randy Savage at MAYHEM IN MONTRÉAL. However, he claims that this match will not happen, nor will the Mash-Up World Heavyweight Championship match happen, because neither Savage nor Cage will make it to MAYHEM IN MONTRÉAL after they face Hogan and Graham tonight!
VS. 
Natalya Neidhart vs. Sensational Sherri Martel
Sherri talks trash to Natalya at the onset of this contest. Natalya just nods her head and lets Sherri run her mouth. When it seems that Sherri is finished, she tries to strike Natalya, but she blocks it and lays into Sherri with some stiff shots. Natalya parlays this early flurry of offense into an early advantage, but it is short lived. Natalya gets greedy and tries to end it early with the Nattie by Nature clothesline, but Sherri ducks it, comes off of the ropes and takes Natalya down with a cross body block. It only gets a 1-count. Sherri gets in the driver’s seat after an eye rake and a hair pull takedown. Sherri makes several attempts to pin Natalya, but cannot get the win. Sherri becomes frustrated and it leads to her making a major mistake. Out of desperation, Sherri tries a move that she’s never done before, going for a hurricanrana, but Natalya catches her and counters with a sit-out powerbomb. Sherri gets her shoulder up just in time. When Sherri and Natalya both get up, they trade blows. Natalya begins to get the better of Sherri and lays into her with some chops. She begins to build some major momentum and looks like she’s poised to put this one away. She signals to the crowd that she’s ready to finish off Sherri. She whips her into the ropes, but nothing comes of it as Nicole Matthews and Portia Perez grab Sherri by the legs to stop her from returning off of the ropes and pull her outside to safety.
Sherri and the Canadian Ninjas trade barbs with Natalya as they walk away from ringside. However, they are ambushed from behind by Taylor Wilde and Mighty Molly. They duke it with the Ninjas. Sherri gets lucky, as she avoids a major confrontation and leaves the area. She’s counted out, handing Natalya the win.
Official Decision: Natalya Neidhart wins by countout

VS.
The Montréal Mafia w/ Frenchy Martin vs. Dean Malenko, Leo Burke, Junkyard Dog & Bo Dallas
Our big 8-man tag team battle begins with Malenko, Burke, JYD and Dallas keeping Vachon, Bravo and Tajiri from getting anything started. The faces stymie the Mafia’s attempts to get anything started and beg the International Heavyweight Champion to enter the ring, but he refuses to get into the match early on. As this segment continues, Burke tags out to Dallas, who comes in and takes Vachon down with a pair of arm drags and a dropkick. Vachon backs up into his corner to tag out. While he does that, Dallas tries to rile up the crowd, which was already hot, but it only cools them down. Vachon tags out to Tajiri. He comes in and gets thrown around, but once he’s sent into the corner, he gets out of the way of Dallas’ charge and then pulls him into the tarantula, which gets an unexpected pop from the crowd. Tajiri gives Dallas a brainbuster and pins, but Malenko breaks it up after the count of two. At this point, Robert wants into the match. He gets tagged in and he goes to town Dallas. Le Lion dominates Dallas for a little while before tagging out. The entire Mafia takes turns tagging in and out, beating on Dallas, who play the babyface in peril. However, his hope spots fail to resonate with the crowd. While the heels cause him a lot of trouble, Dallas eventually puts an end to the Mafia’s relentless attack on him, but countering a back bodydrop attempt into a sunset flip. However, he fails to pull Bravo down into the pin. Bravo is decides to try to squash Dallas by sitting down on him, but his butt hits the mat as Dallas rolls out of the way. Dallas makes it to his corner and tags JYD just as Bravo tags in Vachon. The two dogs come in and JYD gets the better of the Mad Dog, slugging him to the mat with punches, chops and a scoopslam. Tajiri comes in and gets droped with a hard headbutt. JYD jukes and jives as Bravo runs at him, but JYD stops dancing just in time to give him a powerslam! JYD tags in Malenko. The Iceman goes to work on Vachon and plants him into the mat with a gutwrench powerbomb. As he goes for the Texas Cloverleaf, he gets hit from behind by Tajiri. Then Burke comes in and attacks him, which brings both Robert and Bravo into the ring to try to attack him, which in turn draws Burke and Dallas into the ring. The referee tries to regain some semblance of order, but it isn’t working. Everyone brawls and slowly, they all end up falling out of the ring until it is only Robert, Burke and Malenko remaining in the ring. Robert attacks Burke in the corner. Malenko is stalking him, though. Robert goes to whip Burke out of the corner, he reverses it and Robert runs right into Malenko and takes him down with a Lou Thesz press. He pounds away at him. As he gets up, he sees Burke charging at him and he hip tosses Burke onto Malenko. He lands across Malenko’s stomach, as if he was giving him a diving senton bomb. Robert covers Malenko, but he gets a shoulder up. Dallas grabs Robert from behind, but receives a falling jawbreaker. Robert boots Dallas out of the ring, where Dino Bravo starts to pound away at him. Burke grabs Robert from behind and gives him a bridging German suplex. Robert kicks out at the last possible second. Malenko gets up. Burke asks for a helping hand as he starts to pick up Robert, but Malenko kicks him in the stomach and gives him an implant DDT! The crowd turns on Malenko. He leaves the ring and the match behind and the Mafia takes advantage of the situation. With Burke laid out, Tajiri climbs the turnbuckle and jumps off, giving him a diving double-foot stomp! Then, Robert pins him for the 3-count and the win!
Official Decision: The Montréal Mafia wins by pinfall
*Commercial Break 5*
Commissioner Billy Two Rivers comes to the ring, where there is already a small table and two chairs set up in the ring, as well as a red area rug covering the canvas. The table is also skirted. Everything is set up for an official AGPW contract signing event. Why is there a contract signing event taking place? Last week, Commissioner Two Rivers gave the Blue Blazer an ultimatum – he had one week to decide whether to sign a contract to become a wrestler in Atlantic Grand Prix Wrestling or else he would barred from being present at all future AGPW wrestling and promotional events. Commissioner Two Rivers takes a microphone and explains all of this. He states that as the Commissioner acting on the behalf of Emile Duprée, he and Atlantic Grand Prix Wrestling will no longer condone the Blue Blazer’s disruptive behaviour and illegal attacks made against several of AGPW’s wrestlers.
Out comes Cyrus, who is here to represent the best interests of The Network. Cyrus tells Commissioner Two Rivers that The Network believes that this ultimatum that has been handed down to the Blue Blazer is an ill-advised move to try to control his behaviour. Commissioner Two Rivers tells Cyrus that he doesn’t appreciate him coming out here to try to undermine the company’s position or his authority on the matter. Cyrus says that The Network isn’t trying to undermine the company’s position or Two Rivers’ authority, rather it wishes that they may reconsider their rigid stance on the matter in light of new evidence from The Network, which suggests that the Blue Blazer, and his antics, is good for ratings, which makes him in turn good for increasing viewership and advertising revenues, which in turn makes him good for everyone’s bottom line. Cyrus places a thick ‘study’ on the table and tells Commissioner Two Rivers to look it over before he decides to force the Blue Blazer to honour his letter of intent to sign a contract. Clearly, The Network doesn’t want the Blue Blazer’s behaviour to fall under the AGW official employee’s code of conduct. Two Rivers tells Cyrus that AGPW doesn’t appreciate The Network’s attempts to tamper with its business decisions. Moreover, he says that AGPW believes it would be better for business to book Blue Blazer in officially sanctioned wrestling matches. He goes on to say that the Blue Blazer’s very own letter of intent to sign a contract has finally given AGPW the chance to do just that.
Here comes the Blue Blazer! He grabs a microphone upon entering the ring and tells Commissioner Two Rivers that AGPW doesn’t have a letter of intent from him, so AGPW is not in a position to get him to do anything he doesn’t want to. Two Rivers tells him that he does in fact have a letter of intent, before the Blue Blazer digs into his cape and reveals the letter while asking, “do you mean this?” Two Rivers asks him how he got it. The Blue Blazer rips up the document and refuses to answer the question. Cyrus, meanwhile, is standing back and enjoying the confrontation. Then, the Blue Blazer says that he is a guardian of the law and he could never sign a wrestling contract because it would prevent him from ensuring that violators of the laws of professional wrestling are made to pay for committing their gross injustices! Two Rivers responds by telling him that if he doesn’t sign the contract sitting on this table, then he’ll never be permitted to enter into another building where an AGPW event is taking place. The Blue Blazer gives him a long look and then says that there’s nothing he can do to stop him. The Blue Blazer turns to leave the ring.
Then, out from under the table skirt emerges Lance Storm, who folds up one of the chairs and hits the Blue Blazer in the back, just as he’s bending down to leave. Storm continues his assault, pummeling away on the masked vigilante. Cyrus loses his cool and starts shouting into the microphone for someone to stop Lance Storm. Suicide and Manik run out, but Storm fends them off long enough for Tyson Kidd to come distract them and Elix Skipper to come out and try to get some revenge from earlier in the evening. Storm hits the Blue Blazer with the chair a few more times while he’s down. Storm weakens him up just enough to force him over to the table, place a pen in his lifeless hand and force him to sign his name to the contract on the table by essentially doing it for him. Storm hands the contract over to Two Rivers, who announces that the Blue Blazer is now officially under contract to AGPW and as such, his debut match will be versus Lance Storm at MAYHEM IN MONTRÉAL.
*Commercial Break 6*
SoCal Val is backstage with “Macho Man” Randy Savage, the lovely Miss Elizabeth, and “Captain Charisma” Christian Cage. She asks Savage for his reaction to the news that he will be facing “Superstar” Billy Graham at MAYHEM IN MONTRÉAL. Savage says that he is primed and ready to step into the ring with Graham. He’s looking to show Graham why it is a bad idea to get on the bad side of the “Macho Man.” Graham’s been running his mouth for weeks, in addition to having prevented Savage from winning the Mash-Up World Heavyweight Championship and knocking Savage out for a few weeks – with the help of the rest of the Illuminati – and doing the cardinal sin of spray painting a yellow streak down his spine. He can’t wait for that match, which is why he’s excited for tonight’s main event match, when he will give Graham a small taste of what’s in store for him next week. Then, he turns the floor over to his tag team partner for the night. Christian says that Hogan and Graham made an error in judgment in bringing Bad Influence out to the ring to pose as Savage and himself. It’s led them into a match with the real Macho Madness and Instant Classic and these men won’t lay down for the Illuminati. Christian notes that he didn’t lay down for Graham, last week, and he won’t lay down for him this week, nor will he lay down for Hogan. He notes that Hogan has claimed not to know who Christian is, but he’s certainly aware of who he is since he defeated Hogan’s top soldier. Then, he says that, after tonight, Hogan will know that Christian can beat him.
VS. 
The Fabulous Moolah vs. Jennifer Blake
The match begins with a little bit of back and forth offense between the legendary veteran, Fabulous Moolah, and the AGPW newcomer, Jennifer Blake. Moolah eventually settles in and tries to keep her opponent grounded. However, Blake, nicknamed “Girl Dynamite,” mounts a mid-match rally, using her speed and athleticism to put Moolah on the defensive. She frustrates the veteran with her lucha libre style, which Blake learned learned from having competed in Mexico for several years. It starts to look like Blake is poised to earn the upset victory. She even scores a few close pinfalls. However, a tilt-a-whirl headscissors attempt is countered into a backbreaker. This move turns the tide in Moolah’s favour and she strings off a series of moves, culminating in the Moolah Whip, followed by a missile dropkick and a schoolgirl roll-up for the the 3-count victory.
After the match, Moolah takes a microphone and cuts a brief promo in which she promises to defeat Gail Kim just as easily as she defeated Jennifer Blake, tonight. Next week, Gail Kim will learn a harsh lesson and gain a little bit of humility when Moolah destroys her in front of the entire world to see.
Official Decision: The Fabulous Moolah wins by pinfall

Marc Blondin tries to get a word with Dean Malenko. He goes to Malenko’s dressing room and catches him packing up his gear to leave. Blondin asks him why he turned on Leo Burke. Malenko says that it’s every man for himself out there and now that he has what he wants – his shot at regaining the International Heavyweight Championship – he doesn’t need Leo Burke. In fact, he now sees Burke as just another obstacle in his way to regaining the title he feels he never should have lost, so he did what he did to make Burke an easier obstacle to overcome on his way to making Yvon “Le Lion” Robert forfeit the title back to him at MAYHEM IN MONTRÉAL.

Hollywood Hulk Hogan & “Superstar” Billy Graham w/ “Classy” Freddie Blassie vs. Christian Cage & “Macho Man” Randy Savage w/ Miss Elizabeth
With all of the major players from two of the most anticipated matches on the MAYHEM IN MONTRÉAL card in the ring, there is a buzz in the air. We’re only one week away from AGPW’s first PPV and the Illuminati must make a strong showing. A win here would go a long way towards improving their odds next week. Meanwhile, AGPW’s very best wrestlers would significantly derail the Illuminati’s plans of taking over the company with a victory here leading to wins at MAYHEM IN MONTRÉAL.
The match begins with each of our competitors trying to get into their opponent’s heads. Hollywood Hulk Hogan and “Superstar” Billy Graham show off their awesome physiques in an effort to intimidate their opponents, but neither the “Macho Man” Randy Savage nor Christian Cage care much. They both counter Hogan and Graham’s bodybuilder poses with appeals to the crowds, which cheer them on and start chanting their names. The match doesn’t begin in earnest until Graham and Christian lock up. Graham overpowers Christian and tosses him aside. He gloats and poses. Christian goes to lock up again, and again he gets thrown across the ring. Graham hulks up, but Christian gets up quickly and catches him off guard by running over and dropkicking him to the mat. Graham gets up and Christian punches him back into the ropes. He goes for a whip, but Graham reverses it. Graham tries for a clothesline, but Christian ducks it and takes him down into a crucifix pin that nearly wins the match! Christian tags out. Graham is on his knees and sees Savage entering the ring. Graham backs away pleading for Savage to stay away. For all of the talk about how he’s been dying to get his hands on Savage inside of a wrestling ring, the first chance Graham gets, he wants none of it. Savage runs over to attack, but Graham gives him a stiff shot to the abdomen. Graham gets up and gives him a short-arm clothesline. He brings Savage to his knees and gives him an armbar and then chops him as he gets to his feet. Graham tags in Hogan, who gives Savage a stiff shot to the ribs and then a back rake. He drives Savage’s head into the turnbuckle about half a dozen times and gives him another back rake. He turns Savage around, climbs to the middle turnbuckle and punches away at his forehead. Hogan gets to nine, then leans in and starts biting Savage about the eyebrow. Hogan gets down and the referee has a word with him. Hogan clearly doesn’t care. He comes in to grab Savage, but gets a boot to the face. He comes in again and this time Savage gives him a back elbow to the jaw. Then, Savage connects with several punches, runs to the rope and knocks Hogan down with a running elbow shot to the forehead. Hogan gets up and Savage gives him another running elbow shot to the forehead. Savage tags in Christian, then grabs Hogan and whips him towards Christian, who takes him down with a spinning heel kick. Christian covers, but only gets a 2-count. Hogan slides out of the ring. Christian goes out to the ring apron and stalks him. Hogan holds a conference with Freddie Blassie. Christian runs and leaps off of the ring apron, knocking both men down with a double axehandle smash to the back of Hogan’s head. Graham rushes over to get involved, but he’s cut off by Savage, who greets him with some wicked right hands. Christian gets up and continues the attack on Hogan, slamming his face against the guardrail and the ring steps. Christian rolls him into the ring and climbs the turnbuckle. He waits for Hogan to get up. Hogan starts to get up and begins to talk to the referee, distracting him long enough for Blassie to whack Christian’s ankle with his cane! He falls down onto the top turnbuckle, where Hogan climbs up and takes him to the mat with a superplex! He covers, but Christian gets a shoulder up at two!
Hogan stomps on Christian for a bit, moving him towards the ropes. Then, he distracts the referee as Blassie starts to choke out Christian with his cane. Hogan tags out. Graham comes in and continue to wear down Christian. Graham and Hogan makes some quick tags to keep the fresh man in the ring. They keep up a steady attack on Christian and they both make some pinfall attempts, but he won’t stay down for the 3-count. As the Illuminati continues to use Christian as its punching bag, he gets in a couple of brief hope spots, but fails to make it to his corner to make the tag. Hogan and Graham keep him cut off from that part of the ring and go back to beating him down. The match gets turned on its head when Graham whips Christian and catches him in his bearhug. He looks to put him away with a submission victory, but Christian won’t quit. After having his hand dropped twice, the third time, he keeps it up. He fights to break the hold by digging his fingers into Graham’s eyes, even while the referee tries to stop him. Then, Christian drops Graham to the mat with an enzigurri kick. Both guys are down as the referee counts them down. However, Graham makes the tag. Hogan comes in and tries to drag Christian away from his corner, but he manages to make the hot tag. Savage comes in and bowls over Hogan repeatedly. Graham enters the ring to try to stops the Madness, but he is unsuccessful. Savage is on a roll. He’s got the Mash-Up World Heavyweight Champion on his heels. Savage gives him a big inverted atomic drop and then the hair-pull hangman across the top rope. Savage climbs the turnbuckle and nails the champ with a flying double axehandle smash. He runs across the ring and takes out Graham with a running elbow to the forehead. Hogan gets up and Savage runs him over with the same move. He picks up Hogan and gives him a vertical suplex. He covers, but Graham breaks it up after two. Christian comes in and throws punches at Graham. All four men are in the ring. The referee tries to get Graham and Christian to leave the ring. While this is happening, Blassie sneaks his cane into Hogan’s hands. Savage grabs him to pick him up. As Hogan turns around, he hits Savage in the side of the head with the cane. He gets rid of the weapon and pins. It’ a long 2-count, but Savage gets his shoulder up! Hogan argues with the referee’s slow count before picking up Savage sending him into the rope for a big boot and giving him the leg drop. However, Hogan doesn’t settle for one leg drop, he gives him a second leg drop and pins. Christian tries to enter the ring to break it up, but Bad Influence appears and prevents him from entering the ring. The referee counts to three and awards the win to the Illuminati.
After the match, Blassie instructs Hogan, Graham, Christopher Daniels and Kazarian to continue the assault. They beat both Savage and Christian down, giving them a series of high-impact finishing maneuvers and finishing the assault with both men getting the Illuminati symbol spray painted on their backs. Will the “Macho Man” or “Captain Charisma” be able to recover in time for MAYHEM IN MONTRÉAL or will the Illuminati conquer all and gain major traction in their quest to take over AGPW? Find out next week at MAYHEM IN MONTRÉAL!
