Luke Kurtis, Kal Herro, Mahabali Shera, Tony Gunn, and Jack Vaughn were backstage talking about what to do about The Mystery Masked Men and Crixus causing so much damage to the OVW roster. Super Z swooped by them as they were talking about a plan.
OVW Country Boy Brewing Media Champion Kal Herro pinned Brandon Lee after the Fanny Pack Knee in a non-title match in 2:49.
OVW Rush Division Champion Will Austin stormed out to the ring and demanded Buzz Backlund come out to face him again after Backlund has now beaten him twice. He said it was a fluke. Backlund came out and said he had nothing to prove because he has beaten him. Austin said he would put the title on the line. Backlund changed his mind since it will now be a title match later on tonight.
OVW Tag Team Champions Donovan Cecil and TW3 defeated Troy Austin and Prime Jackson in a non-title match when Cecil pinned Jackson after the Extinction Level Event finisher in 3:24.
Tony Gunn calmly approached Omar Amir and Lucious Lawrence backstage and asked to talk with them. They were cool in return and agreed to listen to him.
Carson Drake came out to the ring in dress clothing. He once again apologized to the fans for acting like a jerk this year. He acted concerned about Mick Foley getting attacked and injured last week by a mystery person. He said it wasn’t him that did it. He said he has been investigating the situation with Al Snow to find out who it was. He named Crixus, Jack Vaughn, and Tony Evans as suspects. He swore he will find out who did it and said he would take care of the person for Foley.
Backstage, Luke Kurtis and Kal Herro got Tony Evans, Jay DeNiro, Donovan Cecil, and TW3 together to let them in on the plan. They said this was all about protecting OVW and its future.
Dustin Jackson and Jake Lawless defeated Super Z & Mahabali Shera by DQ in 13:50 when Omar Amir and Lucious Lawrence came out and hit Jackson and Lawless with chairs. The announcers said this was a #1 contenders match for the OVW Tag Team Titles and it looked like Amir and Lawrence did this to purposely cost Z and Shera the titles shot.
Hour 2-
Buzz Backlund pinned OVW Rush Division Champion Will Austin to win the title in 2:04. Austin attacked him before the bell and the referee debated if the match would even happen at first. Austin charged wildly at Backlund in the ring corner but missed and went shoulder first into the ring post. Backlund then roll him up for the pin and the title.
Shane Mercer pinned Star Rider after the Moonsault & Battery in 6:14.
Backstage, Tiffany Nieves and Dream Girl Ellie talked to Gema before her big title vs. OVW career match next. Nieves said they will support her because all that matters is getting the title into this new version of The Bad Girls Club. If Gema loses the match she has to leave OVW. She was cool and confident about it. She said she knew the risks when she accepted the match.
OVW Women’s Champion Leila Grey pinned Gema (with Tiffany Nieves and Dream Girl Ellie) after the Baddie Bomb in 16:54 in the title vs. OVW Career Match. Nieves interfered and turned on Gema. Gema must now leave OVW. Nieves tripped Gema up from down at ringside on purpose around the 15-minute mark. She later tripped up Grey by accident thinking she was Gema. Ellie tried to talk sense into Nieves and wanted to know what was going on but Nieves shoved her down. Gema hit a finisher on Grey, and it looked like she could have won, but Nieves got into the ring and pulled her off the pin cover attempt. It will now be Grey defending against Nieves on the June 29 pay-per-view.
Tony Gunn came out to the ring. He said Crixus showed his true colors last week when he turned on OVW. He assumed Crixus is the leader of The Mystery Masked Men. He demanded answers and he wanted Crixus to come out to explain what happened last week. Crixus appeared on screen to distract Gunn while the masked men surrounded the ring. He said he is overseeing the revolution and ordered the masked men to attack Gunn. Kal Herro, Vaughn, Kurtis, Shera, Super Z, and everyone who they recruited tonight came out to stop them. They all secured the doors in Davis Arena to make sure the masked men couldn’t run away this time. They all rushed in and beat up the masked men in the ring. They unmasked two of them as Dalton McKenzie and Beef. Before they got to the other two, Crixus dragged out a bloody Doug Basham to get them to stop and let the heels go. Crixus and his heels then escaped the venue while everyone went to check on Basham.
