* Match 1 – NYCW TELEVISION CHAMPIONSHIP – JACKIE BACCARO © d. ANTHONY “BK” DESIO at 9:01 with a bearhug to retain the title.  (Referee:  Chris Korbin)

* Match 2 – NYCW WOMEN’S CHAMPIONSHIP – DANA CHAPMAN © d. TINA HOOVER at 4:48 with a swinging neckbreaker to retain the title.  (Referee:  Corbin Page)

* Backstage – JOSH MCGUIRE is standing by with NYCW Champion RYAN “THE BOSS” KNAKAL and his brother JEFF KNAKAL, who will combat FRANK BRIGGS in a handicapped match tonight.  If BRIGGS wins, he will challenge RYAN KNAKAL for the NYCW Championship next week.  However, neither KNAKAL is worried, and both claim to have everything under control.

* Match 3 – ROLAND HOLCOMB and DAMIEN FIELDS d. BIG VERNON and SYDESWYPE at 6:04.  HOLCOMB pinned VERNON after bashing him in the head with a lead pipe.  (Referee:  Ethan McKay)

* Match 4 – KRIS ANTHONY d. MIDDKNIGHT at 11:11 with a victory roll.  (Referee:  Jim Parris)

* Backstage – JOSH MCGUIRE interviews KRIS ANTHONY as he returns to the locker room after his victory.  ANTHONY, charged up from his win, challenges JACKIE BACCARO to a Television Championship match next week.  Conveniently in hearing range, JACKIE BACCARO comes on screen and accepts the challenge.

* Backstage – We are shown a clip from earlier today, where tag team partners THE TYRANT and JOE MALONE got into a heated argument over their losing ways as of late.  After seemingly patching up, they erupt into a heated brawl, which takes numerous officials to celebrate.  Hence, the signing of this next match:

* Match 5 – DYNAMITE DEAN NASH, GREG PRICE, AND JOE MALONE d. THE TYRANT and NYCW Tag Team Champions THE OLD SCHOOL at 8:19.  NASH pinned BURRIS with the diving dragon attack to secure a Tag Team title shot for he and PRICE next week.  (Referee:  Chris Korbin)

* Match 6 – RICK DELIGHT d. ROB GRAVES at 6:37 with the Implant DDT.

* Backstage – JOSH MCGUIRE is standing by with FRANK BRIGGS, moments before entering a handicapped match against THE KNAKALS.  BRIGGS says the scenario of him defeating both KNAKALS and moving on to challenge for the NYCW Championship next week is unlikely, but warns us not to underestimate him.

* Match 7 – FRANK BRIGGS d. NYCW Champion RYAN KNAKAL and JEFF KNAKAL in a handicapped match at 13:57.  BRIGGS pinned RYAN with a top rope powerbomb after launching JEFF over the top rope with a gorilla press slam.  The Hofstra crowd shows BRIGGS immense support as he plays to them, shocked KNAKALS recovering on the outside, knowing that RYAN will have to defend the NYCW title against this monster next week as the show fades to black.
