Show opens with a shot of the crowd inside Du Burns arena, on the shores of the inner harbor in Baltimore, Maryland .... We hear the voice of XWA announce team Tom Phillips and Renee Young, and they welcome the fans to this weeks show and they talk about what we are going to see tonight ....
The show begins with 'The Eco Warrior' CJ Parker coming down to the ring carrying the Sandman's cane that he stole last week .... Parker says he is hardcore, hardcore about saving the environment that is .... He wonders how many Naboo trees had to die to make this weapon .... He is going to recycle the Sandman's cane because he drove the Sandman out of XWA ....
Parker is all smiles until the music of his opponent hits, and out comes Tomasso Ciampa for his in-ring debut! Parker looks like he is about to crap his pants ....
'The Project' Tomasso Ciampa -vs- CJ Parker
This is basically a squash match .... Ciampa dominates from jump, hitting a couple of his signature moves and then finishing off Parker with the 'Project Ciampa' (powerbomb dropped into a backstabber) for the 3 count ....
IN THE BACK - Tomasso Ciampa makes his way through the back after his debut win .... He runs into Adam Rose and his entourage partying in the back .... Rose asks why Ciampa is so angry and says this is a party .... look around, Everyone is partying .... Don't be a lemon, be a 'Rosebud'! Ciampa is obviously not in the mood for games ....
The Polynesian Fight Club (Tama Tonga & Tonga Tevita) -vs- The FBI (Little Guido & Tony Mamaluke)
Next up, 'The Shooter' Brent Albright makes his way to the ring .... He talks about how last show he shut Silas Young and all his talk about being the 'last real man in wrestling' up .... Silas proved he isn't a man because he didn't shake Albright's hand after the match .... Now he's looking forward to the XWA cup ....
Of course this brings out Silas Young .... Young says that to shake albright's hand would mean he admitted he was the better man, and there ain't no way Albright is more of a man than him .... Handshakes are for pansies .... Albright said he would make him tap out, but he didn't because Silas is a real man and real men don't tap out .... Silas put albright's own finisher on him and he couldn't escape .... He had to get to the ropes because he's a bitch .... Silas doesn't shake hands with bitches, only with real men ....
Of this leads to another pull apart brawl between these two men that takes nearly the entire XWA locker room to break up ....
THE XWA 'X-FACTOR' weekly segment is next .... This segment concentrates on the XWA cup, as the entire XWA cup tournament bracket is released .... The XWA cup will begin on next weeks show, with the final 8 of the tournament being settled in one night ....

Up next is yet another debut here in XWA .... Baron Corbin .... Corbin comes out to the ring riding a Harley Davidson, and he leaves it parked at the top of the ramp ....
'The New Breed' Baron Corbin -vs- Colin Dulaney
Total squash .... Corbin takes Dulaney out with a big clothesline, then scoops him up and drills him with the 'End of Days' (lifting swinging reverse STO) for the pin within 20 seconds ....
Corbin leaves without even pausing to celebrate, when the music of the Fortunate Sons hits .... Dibiase and Smith come out and stop at the top of the ramp to admire Corbin's Motorcycle .... Corbin walks up the ramp, stopping to stare down the Fortunate Sons as they walk by ....
Dibiase takes the mic and they introduce their newest member, 3rd generation star Lacey Von Erich .... The Fortunate Sons cut a promo on how Dibiase is going to become the new XWA champion ....
Big E Langstons music hits and he comes out to the ring .... He says that if Dibiase wants to be the XWA champion, he will have to get by him to do it .... He tells Dibiase to 'get in line' .... Dibiase says when you are as good as they are, you don't pay dues and you don't get in line .... The Fortunate Sons attack Big E and lay him out before his match ....
Big E Langston -vs- Adam Cole
Cole takes advantage of the weakened Langston and controls the majority of the match .... Langston fights back and uses his power advantage to retake control, but Cole slips out of the 'Big Ending' and takes out Langstons knee .... Cole with a stiff super kick to the back of Langstons head, followed by another from the front, and then a shining wizard to finish things .... Adam Cole is successful in his debut ....
It's time for our main event ....
'Mr. Wrestling' Kevin Steen -vs- Abyss
This is an all-out battle from the word 'go' .... Steen is out first, and Abyss makes his way out from the crowd and Steen goes out to meet him! They brawl up into the stands, where they use anything they can get their hands on to beat the hell out of each other .... They battle out onto a balcony, where Steen takes a choke slam off the stands and through 2 tables!!!! Somehow, Steen manages to recover from this and the match continues .... They work their way back to the ring, and Abyss goes under the ring and gets a bag of thumb tacks .... He pours them out in the ring and goes to choke slam Steen onto them, but Steen counters with a low blow! Steen picks up a handful of tacks and puts them in his mouth .... THEN SPITS THEM IN ABYSS' FACE!!!! Steen gets Abyss up on his shoulders and hits the F-Cinq (F5) onto the tacks!!!! Both Steen and Abyss have tacks sticking out of them like pin cushions!!!! Steen goes up top, but Abyss catches him and knocks him off the top rope sending him crashing through the timekeepers table at ringside!!!! Abyss goes after Steen, who recovers enough to spray Abyss in the face with a fire extinguisher!!!! Abyss is blinded, and Steen KO'S him with a vicious chairshot!!!! Steen piles a bunch of chairs on top of Abyss and goes up top .... STEEN-TON BOMB (Swanton) onto the chairs, crushing Abyss beneath them!!!! Steen lays on top of Abyss, still buried under the chairs, and gets the 3 count!!!!
Medical personnel and trainers pour out of the back and check on both men as the show ends ....
