Everyone battled.  ELP was sent to the floor.  Maclin suplexed Miguel but ELP broke up the pinfall.  Trey came back to nail a big dropkick.    He went for a dive but Maclin moved.  Trey flipped around the ropes.  Maclin tried to powerbomb him off the apron but failed.  Everyone battled back into the ring, where Trey was chopped in the corner by each of his opponents, who were trying to outdo the other.

Trey battled back and nailed a Muta Lock on ELP after kicking Maclin away.  Maclin returned to grab him by the throat.  Miguel fought him off and nailed a Northern Lights suplex on Maclin while still maintaining the leg hold on ELP.  Miguel was discarded.  ELP nailed springboard off the ropes into a rana, then a step-up enziguiri on Maclin.  He raked his opponents' back.  

Migiel returned and measured and worked over his opponents until ELP nailed him low.  ELP went to come off the ropes but Maclin drilled him in the breadbox in mid-air.  Maclin controlled the ring, scoring two counts on each opponent.  Miguel made a comeback but went for a handspring cartwheel off the ropes but as he rebounded, Maclin speared him through the ropes while he was upside down.  Maclin hit the ring and wiped out ELP with a dive, then nailed another flip dive outside on Miguel.  A crazy series of highspots.

Maclin climbed up on the outside of the buckles but was nailed from behind with a enziguiri by ELP.  He drilled Maclin to the floor but was then caught with a cutter by Miguel on the floor as he rebounded off the ropes outside.  The crowd chanted, "This is awesome."  It's a ridiculous series of athletic feats.  Maclin was nailed with a Code Red in the corner for a two count.  Maclin nailed a DVDR for a two cout.  ELP tried to get involved and was sent to the outside.  Maclin set up Trey on the top rope, going for a superplex.  Trey dazed him but was raked across ther back by ELP, who then powerbombed Maclin into the ring.  He then nailed a super rana off the top on Miguel, who crashed down on Maclin.  He nailed Maclin with a splash off the top but Maclin kicked out.

Maclin came back with a sit-out powerbomb for a two count.  He declared ELP was "f***ing dead" but Trey got involved and nailed a enziguiri to Maclin who was sent to the floor.  ELP and Miguel battled back and forth.  ELP almost scored a two count.  He went to punch Miguel low but hurt his hand.  Trey pulled out a protective cup.  Trey nailed a brainbuster and came off with a Meteora, pinning ELP.

Your winner and new X-Division Champion, Trey Miguel!

Gia Miller interviewed Mickie James.  James said this is her toughest challenge to death because Deonna Purrazzo was one of the best Knockouts Champions in history.  She wanted her on Empowerrr for the NWA for a reason but now Deonna has made it personal, even going to her home to attack her.  She said she hasn't held the title in eight years and she's had self doubts but tonight isn't about just the Knockouts title but proving to herself that she deserves to hold a title again.  Deonna is going to give her the fight of her life but that makes the title win so much sweeter.

Heath & Rhino (?) vs. Violent by Design's Joe Doering & Deaner with Eric Young.

No partner came out with Heath Miller.  Heath had promised to fight alone if Rhino didn't appear.  They all attacked him while his back was turned.  Doering was forced from the ring by the referee.  Deaner nailed a rolling neckbreaker.  VBD took their time tagging in and out, working over Heath.  This went on for some time until Rhino hit the ring and cleaned house.  The crowd chanted for ECW and then for a Gore.  He Gored the hell out of Deaner and scored the pin.

Your winners, Heath and Rhino!
