Brody and Gang are already slugging it out . They get Doc involved and the 3 fight down the ramp way .
Lance : Well these three aren’t waiting for formalities, I see . Jim , let me just say the Slobber Knocker has begun !!!
The ref’s are trying to get two men in the ring , but they are all three busy bouncing each other’s heads off of anything nailed and not nailed down . Finally, after they get enough refs out there , order is somewhat restored .
Doc and Gang start things off while Brody is being held at ringside in the shark cage making noise and shaking it like a wild animal .
The fist are flying . Gang clotheslines Doc and then under the guidance of SOH hits a knee drop across the forehead of Doc which slightly dazed him . SOH slides in a chair and Gang slams it into Doc’s back . Gang with a back breaker and now works a Bearhug on Doc ! Doc fights through the tremendous pain and starts laying in punches to Gang’s forehead and then a gets out . Doc with just pure power drives Gang back into the corner and lays shoulders in across the ribs . Doc with a makeshift Samoan Drop on Gang !! He grabs his back though after the move . Gang with a double axe handle across the back and then a bodyslam on Doc !! SOH has seen enough . He calls for the 747 ! Gang goes up , but misses when Doc moves ! SPEAR BY DOC !! He covers 1……2…….3 !!!
Gordon : One Man Gang loses this fall , Jim . JR : More importantly, he’s down 1 fall . And Doc is up one .
Gordon : Indeed . If Doc can beat Brody here , he is your winner ! Brody is let out if the shark cage and charges the ring . He and Doc are throwing down . Doc clotheslines Brody over the top rope and then goes out after him . Doc slams Brody into the corner ring post and then rolls him back in .

Doc is holding his back and slow to get up . Brody with a clothesline and then a chokeslam on Doc !! Brody covers and gets the 3!
Gordon : And just like that Doc and Gang are down a fall each. JR : And Gordon all Brody has to do is beat One Man Gang who has had a match already .
Brody meets Gang right at the shark cage and tackles him . The two spill into the cage knocking it over . Doc just shrugs his shoulders and goes and sits in a corner , taking care of that back . Brody is out if the cage first and big boots Gang to the face when he comes out . SOH hits Brody in the back with a chair . Brody just turns around and looks at him . Gang from behind slams Brody face first into the ring post and Brody is busted open . Gang now rolls Brody in the ring . Brody still dazed a bit ….. 747 by Gang !!! He covers and gets 3!!
Gordon : All 3 men are now down a fall. JR : Gordon , I don’t know what’s going to happen next! Doc charges the ring . He nails Gang with a Thesz Press and rains down punches . Doc gets to his feet Gang staggers up ….. Side Belly to Belly by Doc !!! 1……2….. SOH gets in the ring and just breaks it up by diving on Doc !!!

Gordon : Let’s send it to the back to Lance Russell! Lance Russell: "Thank you Gordon! I'm being joined now by one of the men who will be representing Progress Wrestling in this exhibition match..... Matt Riddle! Matt what can we expect in this exhibition?" Matt Riddle: "First things first, Bro..... I've heard stories about you Lance Russell! They say your a party animal Bro! You gotta promise to meet up with me after the show and we will score some hot babes and you can tell me how you and Gordon did it back in the day! Deal bro? But as far as this exhibition goes, whoever my opponent is, we are just gonna go out there and have some fun! Roll around on the mat a bit, and show these UK fans what Progress will be all about. It's gonna be righteous!" Lance Russell: "Well there he goes fans! Let's get back to the ring." Riddle mingles with the crowd and is having a grand time as the crowd chants "BRO! BRO! BRO!" Then Riddle enters the ring and awaits his opponent.
Jim Ross: "Fans, it looks like business is about to pick up! This Walter is as tough as a two dollar steak! Progress is sending one helluva an exhibition match here!" Progress Wrestling Exihibition Match: Matt Riddle vs Walter Riddle just toys with Walter in the beginning kicking Walter in the thigh a few times. All the Grapples and SLAPS and go well and good for a couple minutes and then the big man pulls out a nasty little sweep of Riddle’s ankle and Riddle is in bad pain on the knockdown.
Riddle does get up at five, but then WALTER just immediately grabs him and hurls him in a power bomb. Riddle up at nine there. They trade some palm strikes, but Riddle trips him down and looks to outmaneuver WALTER on the mat. He does not; again WALTER’s size comes into play and he grabs an ankle, then when they get up, WALTER immediately charges forward with a huge boot to the chest, and Riddle is looking flat done.
But Riddle SPRINGS up at nine, and then takes WALTER down and hammers away with elbows and hammer fists to the back of the head until the referee stops the match. Riddle is unconscious and blood is coming out of his mouth as EMT's rush to the ring to assist him.
Jim Ross: "THIS IS SUPPOSED TO BE AN EXHIBITION MATCH! NOT A DAMN MUGGING! THIS MAN, WALTER HAS NEARLY DECAPITATED MATT RIDDLE! FANS, RIDDLE IS IN BAD SHAPE! BUT WHY? THIS WAS NO EXHIBITION!" Walter grabs the microphone away from Ross....
Walter: "I have no time for fun and games. There is no place for that in my ring! This ring is sacred. And I will defend it at any risk. I am The Ring General!" Jim Ross: "Fans, while they continue to assist Matt Riddle, we have to step away for a break. We will be back after these messages!" ***COMMERCIAL BREAK ***
Jim Ross: "Welcome back fans. At this time we can tell you that Matt Riddle has been out into an ambulance and is in route to a nearby hospital. I'm sure there will be updates on his condition soon. But getting back to tonight's action.This next match should be a slobber knocker . The winner gets a World Television Title shot at the opening Bash weekend.
Match Four: "Gentleman" Chris Adams w/Arn Anderson vs Jake "The Snake" Roberts Jake jumps Adams as he gets into the ring. He attempts a short-arm clothesline, but Adams ducks. He hits Jake with chops and a back body drop, so Jake rolls to the outside. Jake and Arn have a slight staring contest for a few seconds, then Roberts comes back inside and Adams works his arm for a while. He even hooks his leg into Jake’s arm and falls back to the mat, wrenching hard on it. He then hits some hard chops and a back kick, so Jake leaves the ring. He lures Adams to the outside, where he hits a chop block to Adams leg and then slams him on the floor. He takes Adams to the edge of the platform that the ring is on and starts attacking his neck and head. Jake then tries to use a chair on him, but Arn takes it away. Adams throws him inside and hits a flying chop to the head, before going back to the arm for a bit. They fight to the corner, where Adams goes for 10 chops, but Jake reverses him to the other corner. Adams jumps over the top rope. Jake slides out of the ring and catapults Adams into the ring post, causing Adams to stumble right off of the platform. Jake slams him head-first into the guardrail and we see that Adams is bleeding. Jake brings him back inside and starts punching at the cut. He then hits the short-arm clothesline and signals for the DDT. He tries for the move, but Adams hits a spinebuster to escape as JR and Gordon discuss that Adams has learned that maneuver from Arn. Both men are down as the ref begins his 10 count. As Adams rises up, Jake grabs his head....... DDT! Jake is slow to make the cover, 1.......2.......NO!!! Adams kicks out! Jake can't believe it and slithers into a corner in shock, talking to himself.
Arn pounds the mat as a bloody Adams begins to stumble up. Jake starts slapping at Adams in the face, taunting him. Over and over again. Adams pushes Jake off...... Superkick to Roberts! 1.......2........NO..... Arn puts Jake's foot on the bottom rope!! Adams looks out to Arn confused. Arn yells for Adams to "BEAT HIM WITH SOMETHING BESIDES A SUPERKICK!"
As Adams turns to Jake, Roberts goes for a desperation DDT but Adams reverses by spinning around Roberts and hitting a DDT of his own!!! 1......2.......3!! Chris Adams is your winner! Arn gets in the ring, where Adams is still looking at Arn in disbelief. Arn raises Adams arm in victory as the two make their way back to the dressing room.
Jim Ross: "Some strange turn of events in that match and how about Chris Adams taking a play out of Arn Andersons playbook and using the DDT to get the win? Gordon, one helluva night so far. How much more action can we take?" Gordon: "We will find out when we come back because it’s the Dream Rumble Match next ! The winner will get an NWA World Heavyweight Title at Sacrifice on May 27th . We’ll be back!" ***COMMERCIAL BREAK ***
