  • Buff Bagwell and Johnny Swinger made their way to the ring to open the show. Buff claimed that he was getting bored being at the top of the cards in singles matches during the last WWA European tour. So, he and the ‘Swingman’ have both decided that, together, they will be known as Euphoria! Buff then asked where better to debut such a name than here, in ‘jolly-ole England’? He continued with saying that, tonight, they are formally challenging the WWA World Tag Team Champions, The Dark Pact, to a match! Commissioner Bret Hart entered, slightly mocked Buff and Johnny, and made the match official for the main event tonight!
  1. Juventud Guerrera defeated AJ Styles, Low Ki, & Psicosis in a four-way match, following a 450 Splash on AJ Styles.

After the match, Bret Hart announced from the stage that there would be no rematch, as Euphoria had blown their chance and The Night Pact were the true and deserving champions! Bagwell and Swinger threw a fit as The Night Pact celebrated in the ring.
  • Once the ring cleared, Jeremy Borash hopped into the ring and invited Sting down for an exclusive interview, he hoped to shed some more light on Sting’s current injury. Sting made his way to the ring and thanked the fans and Borash for giving him the time to properly update them on his in-ring status. Sting explained that he tore his abdomen almost two months ago at the hands of Scott Steiner, due to him not releasing the Steiner Recliner submission after their match at THE INCEPTION. Sting claimed to have been working closely with his doctors and trainer since, training little-by-little, to be ready for his in-ring return! Sting promised to be in the ring, in Newcastle, for THE DISRUPTION pay-per-view at the end of the tour! He said plans to disrupt Scott Steiner’s run as WWA World Heavyweight Champion, once and for all!
