* BACKSTAGE – JOSH MCGUIRE catches up with JACKIE BACCARO backstage, who has advanced to the finals of the Television Championship tournament tonight against GREG PRICE. BACCARO is anything but modest in the interview and blows off PRICE as an overrated newcomer, guaranteeing that he will be the first Television Champion.

* MATCH 4 – NYCW WOMEN’S CHAMPIONSHIP – DANA CHAPMAN © d. TINA HOOVER at 4:18 to retain the title that she captured from LIZ RUSH this past Tuesday night in a PWA Frequency dark match, scoring the pinfall with an implant DDT. (Referee: Ethan McKay)

* BACKSTAGE – JOSH MCGUIRE is standing by with GREG PRICE, who battles JACKIE BACCARO for the Television Championship later tonight. PRICE doesn’t have much to say, claiming that he will let his actions in the ring speak for him, rather than run off at the mouth like an ass. He says that when all is said and done, you will know who is the first NYCW Television Champion.

* MATCH 5 – NYCW TAG TEAM CHAMPIONSHIP TOURNAMENT – THE OLD SCHOOL © d. ROB GRAVES and ANDREW LIVINGSTON at 6:19 to retain the title. BOBBY BURRIS pinned GRAVES after ALEX MASON drilled him in the face with the Tag Team Championship belt. (Referee: Chris Korbin)

* MATCH 6 – NYCW TELEVISION CHAMPIONSHIP TOURNAMENT – FINALS – JACKIE BACCARO d. GREG PRICE at 20:22, knocking out PRICE with the ring bell as the referee is incapacitated and putting his unconscious opponent in a bearhug as referee Corbin Page gets back up, signaling for the bell as PRICE cannot respond, thus crowning JACKIE BACCARO the first NYCW Television Champion. (Referee: Corbin Page)

* BACKSTAGE – We are taken backstage, where JOSH MCGUIRE is standing with JON DULBERG, who is moments away from competing against the team of RYAN and JEFF KNAKAL. DULBERG has a mystery partner to take on his two cousins, one of whom is the current NYCW Champion, and DULBERG claims that the NYCW fans will not be disappointed, in this the Human Highlight’s last NYCW appearance.

* MATCH 7 – NYCW CHAMPION RYAN “THE BOSS” KNAKAL AND JEFF KNAKAL VS. “THE HUMAN HIGHLIGHT” JON DULBERG AND A MYSTERY PARTNER (Referee: Jim Parris):
After the Knakals enter to ICONZ’ “Get F*cked Up,” Jon Dulberg comes out and the fans are bursting with anticipation as to the identity of his mystery partner. Finally, to the delight of the crowd, Dulberg unveils his mystery partner, the same man that chose him as a mystery partner Saturday night at PWA Meltdown, “The Impulse” Mike Griffin, making a one-night-only NYCW appearance! The fans go ballistic, and never come down, as Griffin hits the ring and he and Dulberg go crazy on the Knakals. Ryan and Jeff hold their own for a while, but in the end, it is Mike Griffin forcing Jeff Knakal to tap to the Culmination as Dulberg has NYCW Champion Ryan Knakal locked in the Seventh Inning Stretch. The Knakals tuck tail and flee as Griffin and Dulberg celebrate Dulberg’s final night in NYCW to his new PWA theme, “Come With Me.”
WINNERS AT 7:53 VIA PINFALL: JON DULBERG AND MIKE GRIFFIN
