The show opened up with Rhino coming out and saying how he was screwed at Sudden Impact by Ricardo Rodriguez. He is demanded that Del Rio give him another match for the NWA World Championship but with EVERYONE banned from ringside!

This brought out Rob Van Dam! RVD asked if Rhino really felt screwed? He said that while Rodriguez did play a small part in his NWA Title match, HE was beaten by Trevor Murdoch and pinned by Cody Rhodes in his CPW Championship Match. Rhino and RVD went back and forth for a few moments before Edge made his way out. Edge said that since Tommy Dreamer is not here tonight, he was in charge. Both men felt like they were screwed out of their respective championships at Sudden Impact, so tonight, they would face off. The winner would get an opportunity at the time and place of their choosing for a championship match! He went on to say, it would NOT be contested under old ECW rules, so they had better play it safe, or they would be out of a title match!

Matthews lets go of the hold, and slides out as security flood the ring. Matthews takes the mic and tells Del Rio, he let go tonight, so that when they meet, there is no excuse then Del Rio taps out!

Go Pure Dynamite! Huge win there. I like the teaming of Too Cool, btw. Huge win for Rhino in a match between two favorites, despite the interference. I know they will get their comeuppance. The Miz and AJ Styles is a really good match up, I think. I'm not the biggest Miz fan, but I always thought those two could have a really good feud. ADR steals another one, but then a huge occurrence in Matthews locking on his deadly Hidaka Lock on the champion. This match has been built up beautifully, guys, once of the best interpromotional build ups I've ever seen, to be honest.
