Match 1

Singles Match

Dow Jones defeats Theodore Powers by pinfall


At their last encounter, Powers scored the win over Dow to retain the UKPW Championship. Now Powers sets his sight on Dow's Dow Jones Championship. After exchanging ring jackets and mimicking one another, Powers took early control after a failed charge from Dow. Following a brief mix up with the referee, Dow gained advantage by attacking Powers' knee. The pain in Powers' knee temporarily eliminated his speed and aerial edge. Dodging another charge from Dow allowed Powers to mount offensive momentum, being a second away from victory on multiple occasions. Ultimately, Powers' knee slowed him down when climbing the top rope, allowing Dow to catch Powers and execute the Credit Crunch for the win.

Match 2

Singles Match

'The Genius' Fentos defeats CJ Gunner  by pinfall


'The Genius' began the contest with a sneak attack by entering the ring via the public entrance. Fentos briefly held the advantage after his jumpstart, but Gunner turned the tides after sending Fentos to the floor. Gunner continued his offense outside the ring (even inviting audience members to slap Fentos at one point), but a distraction from Dow Jones allowed Fentos to regain control. Fentos continued his slow beatdown on the fan favourite, Gunner. Gunner was able to dodge a boot from Fentos to mount a flurry of offense. CJ successfully hit his running CJ Bomb, but Dow Jones put Fentos' foot on the rope to break the count! Distracted by Dow, Gunner turned around and ran into a Black Hole Slam from Fentos, ending the contest.

Match 3

6-Man Tag Team Match

Sid Manelli & Stew-Per Set (Lewis Barrett/Mountain Stew) defeats Steve Manelli & The Force ('Doorman' Dom Taylor/Officer Rogers) by pinfall


The energetic trio of Sid Manelli & Stew-Per Set looked strong in the opening portion of the bout. After a thumb to the eye by 'Doorman' Dom to Barrett, the nasty trio of Steve Manelli & The Force took control. The veterans isolated Barrett in their corner, taking turns to beat the young man down. In classic Steve Manelli fashion, he and his partners exploited the referee's blind spots by taking cheap shots at every opportunity. Barrett eventually made the tag to Mountain Stew who unleashed a flurry on Rogers. Unfortunately, Rogers' sheer strength allowed the villainous trio to shut Stew's momentum down. Sid entered the contest, but his father, Steve, threw him into the referee. Steve attempted the pinfall, but Senior Official Martin Raymondson wasn't able to count. As Steve berated Raymondson, Sid rolled Steve up for a pinfall victory!

Segment

Dow Jones Calls Out Tommy Martins

'High Stakes' Tommy Martins and Stew-Per-Set (Lewis Barrett/Mountain Stew) have an altercation with Smart Money (Dow Jones/Fentos)


Dow Jones appeared in the entrance way to introduce, what he called, his "Dow Download". Dow began by boasting about his Dow Jones Championship and how he won his contest earlier in the evening. Dow then said that there's a special guest in the audience, specifically the former UKPW Inter-Regional Champion 'High Stakes' Tommy Martins. Dow invited Martins to the entrance way to supposedly have a nice conversation with the longest reigning Inter-Regional champion in UKPW history. However, Dow never actually gave Martins a chance to speak and constantly talked over Martins. Finally, Martins had enough and didn't appreciate Dow's implications that Martins was inferior to Dow. So Martins took the microphone and said they should settle this in the ring right now!


Martins stood in the ring waiting for Dow, but Fentos appeared from the public entrance and struck Martins from behind! Before Smart Money could being assaulting Martins, Stew-Per Set appeared and chased Smart Money off!

Match 4

Singles Match

Shaniqua (w/ The Tycoon) defeats Jasmine by pinfall


While Shaniqua began the contest with a disrespectful slap to the face, Jasmine quick gained control of the contest. Eventually, Shaniqua was able to capture the advantage after a vicious clothesline. Shaniqua proceeded to methodically pick her opponent apart. After a slipup from Shaniqua, Jasmine found the opening she needed to mount and extensive comeback, almost securing the victory at several points. When it looked like Jasmine had the win in her sights, Shaniqua asked the referee to check her ankle. Meanwhile, The Tycoon, who had been on announcing duty throughout the night, threw a beverage into Jasmine's face! Shaniqua secured a rollup victory while Jasmine was temporarily blinded (placing her feet on the ropes for extra leverage.)

Main Event

Singles Match

**NEW INTER-REGIONAL CHAMPION**

Maverick Mayhew defeats 'Muscles' Mansfield by pinfall


The crowd were firmly behind Maverick in this much anticipated rematch for the UKPW Inter-Regional Championship. It began with a flash as Mayhew delivered a huge flurry that sent Mansfield reeling to the outside. When Mansfield re-entered the ring, the two competitors traded offense until Mansfield got the upper hand, throwing Mayhew crotch first into the top rope. The British Wrestling veteran proceeded to pick Mayhew apart. Mansfield already beat Mayhew for the Inter-Regional Championship, and his cockiness was clear in his, almost taunting, pinfall attempts. Taunting Mayhew and rubbing his boot in Mayhew's face, Mansfield lit a fire in Mayhew, who delivered a huge series of strikes to the veteran. Mansfield cut him back down to size, but the effects of Mayhew flurry were obvious.  After fighting out of a chokehold, Mayhew started to build momentum once again. In a dynamic exchange between the competitors, with close near falls for both men, Mansfield landed a powerful Neckbreaker on Mayhew. To his demise, a cocky Mansfield lackadaisically covered the youngster. But Mayhew reversed Mansfield pinfall to gain the 3 count! Mayhew recaptured the UKPW Inter-Regional Championship!
