Brakus' power proved to be too much for "The Perfect One", and Stasiak began to walk out.

Wright promised to challenge and beat Stasiak next week. As Brakus started to protest, Wright left with Midajah in a limo. Brakus didn't seem pleased, and stomped off to the locker room.
CCW Heavyweight Title Finals: Davey Boy Smith pinned Diesel with the Running Powerslam in 28:49. (***)
Diesel controlled the majority of the match, but Davey kicked out of pin covers again and again. Sycho Sid and The Hell Raisers watched the match from the ring entrance, but they kept their distance. Sid started to approach the ring, but was stopped by Commissioner Slaughter. Diesel was distracted by the goings-on, and Davey was able to hit him from behind and use the Running Powerslam to rally to victory for the CCW Heavyweight Belt. Just as the referee lifted Davey's hand, Diesel jack-knifed the new champ and marched up the ramp to go after Sid as the show closed.
(Davey Boy Smith won the CCW Heavyweight Title.)
