Tag Team Match
Money Inc. -vs- Ink Inc. -vs- The Basham Brothers -vs- The Miz / Val Venis
Money Inc. -vs- Ink Inc. -vs- The Basham Brothers -vs- The Miz / Val Venis
The first fall was pretty much a feeling out process for all four teams. Ink Inc. was targeted more than any other, due to their lack of being a team other than for a few months. In the end, Moore took the first fall after 6 minutes of action.
Fall 1- Val Venis beat Shannon Moore via the Money Shot in 6:42
The second fall was a bit more interesting, as all three teams were going after quick pins to try and thin the match out. Money Inc. worked like a precision hit team. They targeted Val and eventually eliminated him from the match, thus making it The Miz Vs Money Inc Vs The Basham's. It was only a matter of time before the Miz went down, and he did, but he put up one hell of a fight.
Fall 2 - Robert Roode beat The Miz via the Payoff in 15:34
This left The Basham Brothers against Money Inc. It was back and forth in this last few minutes, but in the end, Money Inc stood tall and got the win. In doing so, they called out LAX and the NWA as a whole!
Fall 3- Ted DiBiase beat Doug Basham via pinfall in 18:17
RESULT: Money Inc. defeated The Basham Brothers, Ink Inc. and The Miz and Val Venis.

Evan Sydal -vs- Kofi Kingston
This match has been a month or two in the making. Ever since Evan 'dropped' Kofi, and went down a darker path, he has been on a roll. Kofi, sustained injury's at the hands of Abyss, thanks to Evan. Tonight was about payback. The match started out a little slow, as each man knew the other so well. Kofi then went on the attack and started wiping his former partner. Sydal tried to keep his distance, but that didn't work until he was able to poke Kofi in the eye. Form there Evan used kicks and punches to wear don his former friend. In the heat of the moment, as Evan was going to slam Kofi to the mat, the ref got hit by an errant boot! With the ref down, and Kofi dazed, Evan took off his strap and went to the top rope!
He hit the Shooting Sydal Press! He then motioned to the back, and out came Abyss!

Evan dragged Kofi around the ring and hit all four corner to be declared the winner of the match, much to the dismay of the fans.
RESULT: Evan Sydal pinned Kofi Kingston after hitting all four corners in 12:59.
California Pro Wrestling Women's Championship Match
Yuzuki Aikawa -vs- Victoria (c)
This match went back and forth, with a solid showing from Yuzuki Aikawa. It looked as if Victoria was at time just going to beat the living hell out of the JPP star, and rip her arms clean off her body, but at other times, it looked like Yuzuki Aikawa was playing mind games with the CPW champion.
In the end, it was Daffney, who spelled the end for Victoria! Daffney got on the ring apron and distracted the champ, allowing Yuzuki Aikawa the opening ot nail Victoria with the Yuzupon Kick to secure the upset win and championship title!

Matt Morgan came out with a saved head, and dark long trunks on. he also was holding a book. As he approached the ring, he said that tonight, he had seen a vision, a vision of such earth shaking, and mind blowing proportions. he said that as he was getting ready, a woman riding on a white horse came to him and said that she would guide him... guide him to the holly land, and that all he had to do was follow her. He followed her, and she told him to cleans the NWA of the darkness that is ... Daniels. He said that she gave him this book, and it would give him the details. She said that by bestowing the book to Daniels, he would be cleansed as well. Morgan said that tonight, he would cleanse Daniels!
These two put on a very good match. They went back and forth. Daniels tried to keep the match at a faster pace than Morgan was used to, and it worked for a bit, until Morgan caught Daniels with the point of his elbow square in the face! From there Morgan leveled Daniels with a thunderous clothesline and went on the attack. Dolph tried to inter fear, but he was sent crashing to the arena floor. As the ref was checking on Dolph, Matt took the book and hit Daniels with it, stunning the champion, and then followed up with the Carbon Footprint for the win!

California Pro Wrestling Tag Team Championship Match
Pure Dynamite -vs- LAX (c)
In possibly the best tag match to date in CPW, LAX and Pure Dynamite went for nearly 20 minutes of back and forth near falls and high impact! Both teams were bleeding by the final bell! At one point it appeared the Josh had pined Anarqui, but the ref saw the foot on the bottom rope, and ordered the match to go on.
As in past matches involving Pure Dynamite in the CPW, Money Inc inter-feared, and this time cost them the titles! Roode distracted the ref as Ted blasted Daniels with the CPW Tag Title, thus making it easier for the dazed Hernandez to not realize what had happened, until the three count had been counted.
RESULT: LAX defeated Pure Dynamite when Hernandez pinned Josh Daniels with the Border Toss in 18:03 to retain the CPW Tag Team Titles.
National Wrestling Alliance World Heavyweight Championship Match
Jack Swagger -vs- Sheamus (c)
Swagger and Sheamus was a good back and forth match. Both men were on their game. Swagger used his wrestling background to keep the NWA Champion from using what he uses best... his power game. Sheamus was deceivingly quick for his size, and it threw Swagger off a bit. In the end, Swagger had the champ locked in an angle lock, but Sheamus was able to turn out of it, and caught his challenger with a Polish Hammer, followed up with the High Cross for the win!
RESULT: Sheamus pinned Jack Swagger with the High Cross in 13:13 to retain the NWA World Heavyweight Title.
As Sheamus was celebrating his win, Swagger offered to shake his hand. Then Swagger offered Sheamus a Budweiser... The 'All American Beer" and left as the champ celebrated, only to have Christopher Daniels come out and stare the champ down.
California Pro Wrestling Heavyweight Championship Cage Match
Samoa Joe -vs- Alberto Del Rio (c)
As the crew was setting up the cage, the announcers went over the history between these two and how the Miz was intertwined. It went over both men losing a week or so ago, then each getting to pick someone to wrestle for them at the last show.
Finally the cage was set up, and both men entered. Over the course of the match, ADR showed just HOW vicious he can be! He brought a P-38 can opener with him, tucked in his boot. Joe was no push over either, as he busted ADR open the hard way... with his bare fists! Joe was able to hit the Muscle Buster early in the match, but not able to score the pin fall off it. With ADR, seemingly down and groggy, Joe went for the escape, only to have the cage slammed in his face by The Miz!
ADR then took out the blade and started carving away at Joe! ADR uncovered the top turnbuckle on one corner and whipped Joe, chest first into the exposed steel. Joe fell to one knee, and ADR followed him in with a knee to the back of the head! Del Rio then proceeded to tie Joe to the ring rope with the tag line. Del Rio continued to punch and kick the helpless Joe, all the while, the fans are booing him. The Miz threw a chair into the ring from over the top of the cage, and Del Rio was waiting. Del Rio set the chair in the center of the ring and said that yes, he was the most violent Champion in the NWA.. And if you don't believe him.. Just look at Joe! He then addressed, as he called him "Take Sushi, More Suhi" (Takeshi Morishima), you want to fight? You want blood? Well "El pollo perro", you got it!
As ADR was going on Joe was coming to his senses, and freed himself from he tag line. As ADR was done and turned back around he saw a bloody Joe standing in his face! Joe beat his chest like King Kong and whipped ADR in to the ropes and hit a HUGE spine buster slam, that shook the ring! Joe then picked up ADR and threw him into the cage like a dart! He picked up ADR and launched him into another cage wall! And another! After the third 'toss' ADR was bleeding, as if the faucet in his face had turned on! Joe picked up ADR and launched him into the fourth cell wall. Instead of bouncing off, the wall gave way, and fell to the arena floor! ADR was declared the winner, as he had touched the floor first, but the image of ADR sprawled on the arena floor didn't look like that of a winner, but of one who had just got to hell, and dragged himself back. Joe stood in the ring, then fell to one, knee, exhausted as the fans were chanting "JOE! JOE!"
RESULT: Alberto Del Rio defeated Samoa Joe by escaping the cage in 14:59 to retain the CPW Heavyweight Title.
