Match Two: Bianca Belair vs Alexa Bliss for the Glory Womens Championship
As both women make their entrances it's obvious that Belair is the people's choice. Alexa though couldn't care less. She turns up her nose at the fans as she heads to the ring. Bianca is bouncing on her toes, waiting to get it started. Alexa sees this and decides to be extra slow in removing her entrance gear and doing some stalling tactics. Bianca is getting annoyed. Finally the bell rings and Bliss hops out the ring to pose to the disapproving crowd. She re-enters and as they are about to hook up Alexa ducks out the way and again heads to the floor to talk trash to the camera. Belair has had enough. She reaches down and grabs Alexa's blonde locks and pulls her up and into the ring by her hair.
Now Bianca is Biel tossing her from one corner to another. She nails a clothesline amd a dropkick. Alexa staggers to the corner where Bianca goes for a Stinger Splash but Bliss moves out the way.

And she came damned close to winning the title here tonight, but little Miss Bliss keeps a grasp on her title. I for one, wouldnt mind seeing a rematch between the two. Fans, hold on to your seats, because we are going from the two beauties we just witnessed to what I'm sure will be a typical Saturday night Slobberknocker in Texas!"
Match Three: Roddy Piper vs Stan Hansen for the WWF Heavyweight title
The crowd pops big for PIPER'S entrance and boo just as loud for HANSEN'S!
Once that bell rings,all hell breaks loose as expected!
Although HANSEN has the size advantage,PIPER more bthan holds his own at this initial brawling!
As HANSEN goes to whip PIPER into the corner,PIPER reverse and as HANSEN hits it hard, he bounces off and is taken down by a drop toe hold!
PIPER spends several minutes applying headlocks,arm bars,front chin locks,etc. as his plan is pretty clear...wear the big man down!
It seems to be working pretty well but soon HANSEN gets to the ropes to break an armlock and as the ref seperates them HANSEN eye gouges PIPER !
Now it's the champ's turn as he beats down PIPER with punches, kicks,stomps,forearm smashes,clubbin forearms to the head,punches ,elbow smashes,etc!!
PIPER somehow kicks out of a few pin attempts as HANSEN is getting infuriated with the resilency of the challenger!
HANSEN picks up the game PIPER and whips him into the ropes and as HANSEN goes to hit PIPER with his infamous lariat,PIPER ducks under,hits the ropes and hots HANSEN with a body press and covers but the champ kicks out at two!
PIPER turns the tables as he start firing away at the champ with fists,eye gouges ,kicks etc!
PIPER picks up the champ and whips him into the ropes and on the rebound he catsches HANSEN in the sleeper!!
The crowd pops huge as the rowdy one has it sunk in well!
After several anxious moments for the champ,he finally nuses his strengthn to his advantagenand charges backwards to the corner where his saize basically crushes PIPER between himself and the turnbuckles which breaks the hold!
Both are shaken up but HANSEN gets to his feet first!

Match Five: Tommy Dreamer vs AJ Styles w/Tracy Brooks for the XWA Heavyweight Title
IWA officials made the announcement earlier that Bullet Club members would not be allowed ringside with the exception of Ms Brooks. That suits Tommy just fine as he has run afoul of the group the last few months. Introductions are made and they are ready to go. This one starts a bit slow with each man feeling the other out. People often forget that Dreamer has an amateur wrestling background. Which is because he is more known as the Innovator of Violence. We see some mat wrestling with both men getting fleeting moments in control. Finally Styles gets frustrated after a break and kicks Tommy in the bread basket.
Now AJ is firing elbows to the side of the Champ's noggin. He whips him into the ropes and nails a dropkick and Styles poses to the boos of the crowd. The challenger remains in control for a while. He gets Tommy in the Calf Slicer. Tommy refuses to quit and eventually gets a rope break. Styles goes for a Roaring Elbow but Tommy counters it into a Falling Neckbreaker. Dreamer is a little hobbled from the Calf Slicer but he manages to land a series of punches. He has AJ rocked and sends head over heels into the Buckle. Tommy traps him in the Tree of Woe and connects on a Running Basement dropkick to the mush of Styles. The Crowd cheers as Tommy sets up for a DDT but Styles back drops him.
AJ executes the Spine Breaker then goes into the Stylin' Crab. Tommy struggles but raises his arm to tap... But instead he grits his teeth and crawls to the ropes. High Angle Suplex by AJ and he sets up for the Phenomenal Forearm. He springboards... but Tommy catches him!!!! On his shoulders... Death Valley Driver!!! 1.. 2.. NOOO!!! Both men are now laying prone on the mat as we here the crowd chant, "This is Awesome!" Both men slowly rise and begin trading punches. But Tommy is getting the better of it. He rocks AJ and fires him into the ropes... Sidewalk Slam! Another 2 count. Dreamer picks him up and delivers a Fallaway Slam but the momentum allows Styles to roll out to the floor. Traci is tending to him. But Tommy goes out to the apron and looks to take them both out with a running Senton....
But Styles was warned by Ms Brooks and nails Tommy with a Pele Kick! Snap Suplex out on the floor. Styles drags Tommy up and rolls him into the ring. Styles is on the apron.... Superman Splash (Springboard 450)!!!! 1.. 2... NOOOOOOO!!!!! Styles does a Throat Slice then sets up Tommy for Styles Clash. But Dreamer powers up, Alabama Slam!!! Dreamer is fired up and poses to the crowd. He grabs AJ... DDT!!!! He covers but the referee is dealing with Traci Brooks who is on the apron! Tommy goes after her as the referee is in between. He can't see Styles kick Dreamer right in the junk. He drags him center ring... STYLES CLASH!!! 1.. 2.. 3!!!!
Winner.... and NEEEWWW XWA Heavyweight Champion: AJ Styles

Match Seven: Dusty Rhodes vs Kerry Von Erich for the American TV Title in a Bunkhouse Match
As David Von Erich makes his way back to the dressing room, he is met in the isle by his Brother, Kerry, who just walks right past David like he doesnt even know him!
Both men are ready for a fight . They come to the ring in t shirts , jeans and Cowboy boots . Kerry has a chair in hand . Dusty his famous bull rope with the cow bell . Right when Dusty gets in the ring Kerry nails him in the back with a chair . He grabs Dusty’s bull rope and starts choking him with it .
Kerry let’s off the choke and starts attacking Dusty’s eye with the bell . Dream is busted open . Kerry now puts on the claw to end it . But Dusty feeds off the energy of the crowd . He starts doing his weird ass dance and then gets off some hard left jabs then a big right hand sends Kerry to the mat . Dusty now grabs up the bull rope and wraps it around Kerry’s face .

Jim Ross: "We knew we was gonna see a fight there. And say what you will about this new attitude of Kerry Von Erich, but The Dream was pushed to the limit in that one. Fans, the stakes only go up from here as our next four matches are all world title matches. And it doesnt get any more personal than our next contest."
Match Eight: Asuka vs Britt Baker for the IWA Womens World title
This feud began just before the IWA suspended operations due to the pandemic, but has remained no less personal in the layoff. Baker targeted Asuka, spraying Asuka’s own mist in her eyes. Recently, Baker would attack Asuka after defending her title in WCW, and then Baker showed up at a RISE show to antagonize Asuka by throwing a drink in her face. Britt then got a restraining order saying Asuka could not touch her until their match tonight.
Asuka is chomping at the bit as the bell rings and she begins aggressively, pursuing Baker only to have Baker play mind games by bailing out of the ring. Asuka has had enough and goes out to chase Baker, but runs into a boot as they both slide back in the ring. The story here is that Asuka’s anger is getting the best of her and causing her to be reckless, walking into Baker’s traps time and time again. Asuka again follows Baker to the floor, allowing Baker to send her into the ring post. Baker keeps Asuka grounded and actually dominates the early going as Asuka is off her game. Asuka scores with a knee strike that seemingly levels the playing field and allows her to climb back into this one, then both ladies launch into a series of pinning moves and reversals with each one getting multiple nearfalls.

Baker off the ropes, RUNS INTO A SPINNING BACK FIST FROM ASUKA THAT SENDS ONE OF BAKER’S TEETH FLYING OUT!!!! Baker drops to one knee holding her mouth, and blood is pouring out. She sees her tooth laying on the mat and picks it up, then lets out a blood-curdling scream in the face of Asuka! Asuka silences her with a Buzzsaw kick that rolls her eyes into the back of her head! Asuka pulls her knee pad down … SHINING WIZARD WITH THE EXPOSED KNEE! Asuka falls on top and the ref counts 1 … 2 … 3!

Jim Ross: "Through all the pomp and pageantry that Miz and Morrison brought to the party, Fish and O'Reiley show why they are the very best tag team in the entire IWA! And they still have the world titles to prove it! But something tells me, we may not have heard the last of Miz and Morrison!"
