One on One Match : Austin Aries pinned Alex Riley after a crucifix in 10:36.
- Aries came out and said that his statement a few shows ago was not meant to be taken lightly. He said that he is on a quest... a quest to win some real championships in the NWA and he is going to start in CPW. The past is the past.. Now starts the future. The Rise of the Aries is about to begin. Once the match got underway, Alex nearly derailed Aries, but the veteran was determined to outlast his opponent and in the end, was able to out smart Riley as Alex went for a lariat, Aries caught him with a crucifix and got the three count.
CPW Television Championship Match : Damien Sandow (c) pinned Jimmy Water with the Straight Jacket Neckbreaker in 06:00 to retain the CPW Television Championship.
- Sandow came out again claiming g that he was the best Television Champion in the NWA and demanded the NWA take notice. He said he was such a champion, he was offering 'the new guy' an opportunity at gold and glory! That 'opportunity' was more for show than anything else. Sandow mocked Water and eventually put him out of his misery.
Challenge Match : Dolph Ziggler pinned Cody Rhodes with the Zig Zag in 18:04.
- This match was one that the fans were eager for. The former CPW Champion, versus the former NWA North American Champion. Both men looking for the opportunity to get back into contention for NWA gold, and after the encounter earlier in the week, it looked like neither man was going to back down. One had wondered where Arn Anderson was, as he wasn't in the booth this week, and it became clear where he was, as the match was going full tilt, and then the 'Enforcer' made his presence at ringside felt. He started giving direction, but not to just one man, but to both. he was in essence telling them how to win the match. Cody looked to have the match won after he hit a desperation STO on Ziggler, but then decided to tell Arn to get lost, go away. Mind you Arn never set foot on the ring apron, nor touched the ropes, so Cody's outburst was curious at best. But it was all that Dolph needed. the former NA Champ hit the Zig Zag to score the win, as Anderson was shouting at him to make the cover. After the match, Arn got into the ring and shook Dolph's hand. Dolph was weary from battle, but Arn helped Cody to his feet, only to have Cody bail from the ring, not knowing if he was being set up or not.
One on One Match : Chris Jericho pinned Terrance Philmore with the Codebreaker in 05:19.
- Chris made an example out of Terrance this week. Another local 'School Boy' trying to make it in CPW.
Tag Team Match : The Impact Players defeated The Hybrid Athletes when Curt Hawkins pinned Alberto Del Rio after a flying forearm in 20:11.
- A very good matchup that saw the Players take out the Athletes in a high risk match that saw both team nearly kill the other. In the end, Kurt drilled ADR for the win, taking some momentum from the former NWA World Tag Team Champions going into their huge Championship Match in just over 2 weeks.
One on One Match : Low Ki pinned Evan Bourne after a knee pull-up in 11:19.
- A battle of fast fighters. Evan looked to take the match to the heavens, and Low Ki wasn't shy about doing the same. But Evan took one to many risks, and as he went for Air Borne, Low Ki pulled up the knees, allowing Bourn to crash and burn!
Tag Team Match : Rob Van Dam and John Cena defeated Kevin Steen and Harry Smith when RVD pinned Harry Smith after a 5 Star Frog Splash in 09:12.
- A mix of the upcoming Unlimited event and battle of former North American Champions. Smith and RVD worked well with their respective Windy City partners, but RVD and Cena meshed better. No one backed down and they all let the fists fly in this battle for momentum and pride. In the end, Cena hit Smith with an AA, only to eat a lariat from Steen. As Steen was prepairing to cover Smith, RVD hit a spin kick that sent the WCPW start to the floor. RVD then hit Harry with Rolling Thunder. RVD then hit his 5 Star Frog Splash for the win.
One on One Match : Orlando Jordan pinned Ted DiBiase with the in 13:52 after Sting and Robert Roode tried interfered.
- Sting came out and said that Ted was going to defeat Chris Master at NWA Unlimited, just the way he would defeat his opponent tonight! he said that there was NO way that Master would walk out of the show as the number one contender to the NWA Championship. Sting said that Ted has the tools, the ability, the mental mindset and the wisdom to be the next NWA Champion. Sting said that his opponent tonight was no "push over", but a former CPW Champion, Orlando Jordan! The match was very competitive, once it got going. Orlando actually threw the champion off his game for the first few minutes of the match, but ultimately Sting tripped up Jordan and that started to shift the momentum of the match. Ted then started using shortcuts to pull ahead in the match. Near the end of the match, the ref took a spill and Robert Roode rushed to the ring and hit his former partner with a Roode Bomb the left Ted motionless in the center of the ring. For good measure, Robert drilled Sting with a spine buster as well. Orlando not exactly sure what had happened, picked up the champion, hit the Shoulder Jawbreaker (inverted Stunner) and made the cover for the win as Roode watched from the entrance ramp as the show faded to credits.
