Mike Tenay and Don West welcome everyone to the show and they are excited for the second show in the history of NWA-TNA. Tonight, NWA World Champion Steve Corino will team with CW Anderson to take on Jeff Jarrett and Scott Hall in the main event. Plus, Sabu competes in a hardcore match against Brian Lee. They quickly send it to Jeremy Borash for the first match to start.

Opening Contest: AJ Styles defeated Elix Skipper after eleven minutes following a Styles Clash.

Backstage, Goldylocks interviews the Hot Shots (Chase Stevens & Cassidy O’Reilly) regarding their non-title opportunity against America’s Most Wanted coming up next. Stevens says that they have been the buzz of the world with their incredible moves last week, but they came up just a little bit short. But, this week, they AMW all to themselves and they will show the wrestling world that they are the future of the tag team division. O’Reilly chimes in and says that AMW better enjoy the titles because they won’t have them for too long.

Backstage, Scott Hudson interviews Brian Lee regarding a hardcore match with Sabu tonight. Lee tells Hudson that he has a history of extreme and he even showed that last week in the ladder match. Lee promises to add some more scars to Sabu’s scarred up body.

Second Contest: NWA World Tag Team Champions America’s Most Wanted (Chris Harris & James Storm) defeated The Hot Shots (Chase Stevens & Cassidy O’Reilly) after seven minutes in a non-title match after the Death Sentence to O’Reilly.

Shane Douglas makes his way down to the ring to cut a promo and he’s not happy. Douglas makes it clear that he was robbed last week in his quest to become NWA World Champion and throw the belt down again. Douglas hates the NWA and he’s here to ruin the tradition and company from within. The NWA is old and it reminds him of the hell he lived with guys like Ric Flair and others a few years ago. Douglas wants to bury those memories once and for all and he’ll find a way to accomplish that one way or another. NWA official Bill Behrens makes his way down and tells Douglas that the NWA Committee has been formed and they will control who gets opportunities in the NWA. Behrens tells Douglas that he’ll have to revisit his history next week in a match against one of his previous rivals from the bingo hall in Philadelphia. However, Behrens doesn’t tell Douglas who the opponent is because he wants to Douglas to go crazy thinking about it.

Third Contest: Kid Kash defeated Jimmy Yang in nine minutes following the Money Maker. After the match, Kash made it clear that he’s going to get payback on AJ Styles for the loss on the first pay per view.

Backstage, Scott Hudson is with NWA World Champion Steve Corino and CW Anderson to talk about the main event. Corino doesn’t look to be overly concerned and tells Hudson that Jarrett and Hall hate each other. They’ve never gotten along. Corino says that himself and Anderson get along and have respect for each other after they’ve had battles in the past. Corino believes that Jarrett and Hall are going to doom themselves and it will be an easy night the Extreme Horsemen.

Fourth Contest: Sabu defeated Brian Lee after nine minutes in a hardcore match following an Arabian facebuster off the top rope through a table. After the match, Shane Douglas ran into the ring and attacked Sabu, thinking that Sabu would be his opponent. Sabu ends up smashing Douglas with a chair to the face and Douglas falls to the floor. Behrens comes out again and tells Douglas that his opponent is not Sabu and it’s someone that hasn’t been on the first two shows for NWA-TNA!

Backstage, Goldylocks interviews the NWA X-Division Champion Christopher Daniels. Daniels knows that he’s wrestling Kid Romeo in a non-title match, but he’s already concerned about the lack of competition. After all, Daniels won a six way just last week and has to figure that TNA doesn’t have that many guys to send his way. Goldylocks tells Daniels that Bill Behrens actually just confirmed an X-Division gauntlet next week with the winner getting a title shot in two weeks against Daniels. Daniels hopes that Behrens has found someone worthy to challenge him.

Fifth Contest: Chris Candido defeated Shark Boy in four minutes following a top rope leg drop.

Backstage, Goldylocks interviewed Scott Hall and Jeff Jarrett. Hall tells Goldy that he’s well aware of the history between the two of them, but he’d rather be in there with what he knows than with someone he doesn’t. Jarrett chimes in and says that on any other night Hall would be justified in being concerned, but tonight they have a common goal and that’s to get some revenge on the Extreme Horsemen. Jarrett is focused on getting the win and becoming the number one contender. Hall says he wants to be number one contender. They bicker for a moment before Jarrett finishes off by telling Hall to “not start that” and walks off.

Sixth Contest: NWA X-Division Champion Christopher Daniels defeated Kid Romeo in a non-title match in eight minutes following the Angels Wings.

Main Event: NWA World Champion Steve Corino & CW Anderson defeated Scott Hall & Jeff Jarrett in eighteen minutes when Corino pinned Jarrett after hitting Jarrett with the championship. Late in the match, Hall and Jarrett collided on the apron leading to the finish. After the match, Hall and Jarrett argue a bit, but that doesn’t last long as Simon Diamond and Johnny Swinger run into the ring and assists on a beatdown. Bill Behrens comes out and stops the beating because he has an announcement for Corino. Behrens reveals that next week Corino will be defending the NWA World Championship and it will be against an NWA legend. Next week, Corino will battle… Dusty Rhodes! Corino can’t believe it and the distraction of the announcement allowed Hall and Jarrett to get up and brawl with the Extreme Horsemen as America’s Most Wanted has ran down to the ring to help as the show goes off the air!
