Dr. Britt Baker, DMD vs. Carmella
Referee: Aubrey Edwards
A pretty solid back and forth match at a good pace. Baker sidesteps the Princess Kick, grabs the leg and whips Carmella over into a single leg crab. Carmella makes the ropes to break. As they come up, Carmella backdrops Baker over the top rope to the apron. The Princess of Staten Island comes up into a forearm shiver. Carmella spins around and Britt comes back in with a slingshot into a bulldog. She segues into the Lockjaw. Carmella struggles a bit, but taps out.
Winner: Dr. Britt Baker, DMD at 8:40 by submission

“Hollywood” John Tatum with Missy Hyatt vs. “Pretty Boy” Sean Casey with Sunny
Referee: Joey Marella
The match features inset promos from both sides. Missy Hyatt talks about how after everything that went down in CCW between herself, Eddie Gilbert and Austin Idol; she’s returned to her first love and first managed wrestler in John Tatum. Sunny says that her new man, Sean Casey, thinks he’s handsome, knows he’s hot and the women better get ready whether they like it or not.
Tatum catches Casey on a flying crossbody and turns into a back breaker. He lines up a snake eyes in the corner, but Casey drops out the back and shoves John into the corner to post himself. He pops out and Casey rolls him up from behind with a handful of tights. Marella sees the pulling of the tights and pushes Sean, allowing Tatum to get on top. Sunny jumps to the apron and pulls Tatum’s hair through the ropes for the break. Missy jumps up and pulls Sunny off. A catfight ensues, distracting Marella and Tatum. Casey lands a low blow and nails the Unprettier for the victory.
WINNER: “Pretty Boy” Sean Casey by pinfall at 13:49

Leva Bates with Downtown Bruno vs. Cherry Bomb
Referee: Aubrey Edwards
An inset promo has Bruno introducing his new stable of Bates, Big Bully Busick and the Vaudevillians. You want to talk old school, where it doesn’t get much more old school than them and school is in session.
Bates is dressed like a 1920s flapper and has a Louise Brooks style bob. Bomb offers a handshake to start. Bates takes it and starts dancing with Cherry in a jazz style. Cherry gets into it, but Bates pulls Bomb into short-arm clothesline. Bates dominates most of the match. Cherry rolls out of a backslide and kicks Bates in the gut as she comes up. Flying forearm off the ropes. Sit-out body slam. Cherry goes to the top rope for a flying nothing and eats a dropkick on her way down. She kicks out at two. Both women up. Bates ducks a uranage try and comes back with a Roaring Twenties Elbow.
Winner: Leva Bates by pinfall at 7:32
A pre-tape from earlier in the day has “The Man with the Hands of Stone” Ronnie Garvin talking with Bob Caudle in front of a brand new, red Cadillac. Garvin is about the only talent from a year ago, when Andy Kaufman bought into CCW, to still be there. To award Garvin for his loyalty, he’s been given the new ride from sponsor Solomon Cadillac of Dothan on Route 10. Garvin appreciates the vehicle. He’ll treat it well and drive it with pride. Garvin is nothing, if not loyal. But that loyalty isn’t to Kaufman or his right hand man, Robert Fuller, it’s to all the great fans of Continental Championship Wrestling. He’s still here for them and always will be.
COMMERICAL
vs.
“The Man with the Hands of Stone” Ronnie Garvin vs. Jock Samson
Referee: Joey Marella
Referee: Joey Marella
Samson puts up his dukes like he wants to brawl with Garvin and realizes that’s a bad idea as Ronnie beats him around the ring. Garvin controls most of the match and uses a shoulder breaker to setup the Garvin Stomp. As he’s doing that, the big screen comes to life. Chris Candido, with Sunny, is out in the parking lot next to Garvin’s new Cadillac. He has a crowbar. Candido said Garvin didn’t leave because nobody else wanted him. Maybe he’s done nothing wrong, but Garvin’s done nothing right either. Candido has been overlooked from day one in CCW. Where’s his Cadillac? He then proceeds to bash the car with a crowbar. Garvin runs off. Marella is forced to count Garvin out. Joey brings Jock around and informs him that he’s won his second match in a row by count out. Samson celebrates.
WINNER: Jock Samson by count out at 5:11
The camera cuts to outside where Garvin is fighting with Candido. He’s jumped by Sunny’s other new charges; Sean Casey and the Varsity Blondes of Griff Garrison and Brian Pillman Jr. They beat Ronnie down and then deliver a four-man powerbomb onto the car hood. He’s left lying as we go to commercial.

Back from the break, Caudle says Garvin is being taken to a local medical facility for treatment. Out next is the debuting LOD. Out from the back come Matt Borne, Steve Keirn, Steve Lombardi and Ray Apollo dressed liked Doink the Clown. All four men played Doink at one point. Borne serves as the spokesman. They might look funny, but this is no laughing matter. They’re all four great workers who were saddled by a silly gimmick. Well, this time they own the gimmick. The gimmick doesn’t own them. Continental Championship Wrestling will learn not mess with the Legion of Doinks.
Vs.
Legion of Doinks (Steve Keirn and Steve Lombardi) vs. The Rock ‘n Roll RPMs (Mike Davis and Tommy Lane)
Referee: Tommy Young
Pretty standard tag match with Keirn being double teamed for most of it. Lane goes for a sunset flip, but Keirn blocks and drops a fist. Davis tries to stop Keirn from making the tag, but doesn’t get there in time. Lombardi works over both guys. Everyone brawls. Double team flap jack on Lane. Double hip toss to Davis as he pops up sends him to the floor. Lombardi wins with a sidewalk slam.
WINNERS: Keirn and Lombardi by pinfall of Lombardi on Lane
