 Gilbert Corsey is the ring announcer.
 
OVW SOUTHERN TAG TEAM TITLES: Cardinal & DL3 (c) defeat "The Bro Godz": Colton Cage & Dustin Jackson (w/Dimes & Jaylee).
DL3 connects with a Director's Cut on Dustin. Colton gets taken down with a big spinebuster by Cardinal. Dimes tries to interfere, but Cardinal hits a spinning cutter to Dimes on top of Dustin and he picks up the 3.
 
Amon (w/"The Void": Nigel, Chace Destiny, & Houdini) defeats Billy O. Billy is in control and sets up for the high knee. The Void jumps up on the apron. As Billy hits them off, Amon gets the chain. As Billy charges at Amon, Amon clocks him while the ref's back is still turned. Amon gets the 3.
 
THOROUGHBRED BATTLE ROYAL (in order of elimination): Lukas Gibson, BGB, Andrew Thomas, Drew Hernandez, Blue Chipper, Flex Murphy, SK Eveslage, Eddie Knight, Nigel, Apollo, Ashton Cove, William Lutz, Houdini, Dimes, Rump Thump, KTD. This leaves Justin Smooth with Amon & Chace Destiny. Smooth is able to eliminate Chace.
Amon goes to hit Smooth with the chain, but Smooth ducks and hits Amon with the bicycle kick to knock him out of the ring and get the victory!
 
OVW HEAVYWEIGHT TITLE: Michael Hayes (c) defeats "The Chosen One" Mitch Huff. Referee Joe Wheeler gets smashed in the corner. Huff connects with an Athlete's Foot, but there's no one to count. Hayes throws his leg and clocks Huff in the face. Joe comes back to life and Hayes gets the 3.
 
 ANARCHY TITLE FINAL: Dapper Dan defeats "Shotgun" Tony Gunn (w/Flex Murphy). Chairs, kendo sticks, and Legos are used. Flex tries to aid Tony, but gets a Death Valley Driver on the Legos. Gunn takes Dan down and proclaims he is the best wrestler here, but Dan kicks him below the belt. He then delivers a guitar shot to the head and gets the 3.
The first ever Anarchy Champion: Dapper Dan!
 
WOMEN'S TITLE GAUNTLET: Maria James defeats Torey Payne. Torey misses a 360 splash off the top. Maria super kicks her for the 3.
 Maria James defeats Valerie Vermin. Maria rolls her up in a small package to get the 3.
Maria James defeats Cali. Cali hits 2 x-factors, but can't put her away. Maria gets a rollup with a handful of tights for the 3.
 Meg defeats Maria James. Meg hits a samoan drop and a powerbomb for the 3.
Jaylee (c) (w/Dimes & "The Bro Godz": Colton Cage & Dustin Jackson) defeats Meg. Meg hits a samoan drop and is in charge when the Bros distract the ref. Jaylee rolls out and gets a chair. She gets in, hits it off the mat, then tosses it to Meg and drops to the mat. The ref turns around and sees Meg holding the chair and disqualifies her.
  
10-MAN ELIMINATION TAG: "Team Floyd": "The Real Deal" Randall Floyd, Kevin Giza, "The Winter Swoldier" Adam Slade, "The Boy Wonder" Sam Thompson, & "Wrestling's Rockstar" Ryan Howe defeats "Team LJ": "The River City Dragon" Logan James, Shiloh Jonze, Ted McNaler, Adam Revolver, & Ca$h Flo (w/Josh Ashcraft). Everyone begins eliminating one another simultaneously after the first few minutes of the match. Revolver pins Howe after McNaler shoves him off the top rope, Sam pins Revolver after hitting the Duck Call, Ted hits an underhook DDT on Sam for 3, Slade takes Ted out, Shiloh takes Slade out, Giza hits a guillotine legdrop on Shiloh for the 3, Ca$h runs over Giza and pins him for the 3, Floyd hits Ca$h with the cutter for the 3, leaving Floyd & LJ, the team captains.
LJ hits Floyd with a knee to the face off the top rope, but can't put him away. After some back and forth, Floyd nails LJ with the cutter and gets the 3 to become #1 contender for the Heavyweight Title at the May 12 Saturday Night Special.
After the match, Josh Ashcraft argues with the ref. When he turns around, he gets a cutter for good measure as well.
 
As always, thanks for reading!
