Opening Match, No-DQ, No-Countout: "The Hardcore Icon" The Sandman vs. William Regal

("Rule, Britannia," written by Thomas Augustine Arne, plays)

LG: "Introducing first, representing the Royals, from Blackpool, England, weighing in at 245 lbs., WILLIAM REGAL!"

The crowd boos as Regal enters the ring.

("Enter Sandman" plays)

LG: "And his opponent, representing the Hardcore Alliance, from Philadelphia, PA, weighing in at 244 lbs., he is the Hardcore Icon, this is THE SANDMAN!"

The crowd sings along as the Sandman does his usual trip around the ring area.

The match starts, and Sandman just attacks Regal and canes away at him. Sandman just dominates this brawl. Sandman even canes Regal's hands, making it harder for him to fight back. Regal hits some forearms and trips up the Sandman, but he can't keep him down. Sandman keeps up the assault. Regal goes for his brass knucks, but misses. Sandman catches Regal and hits the Singapore-cane assisted White Russian Legsweep for the pin at 5:30.

LG: "Here is your winner, THE SANDMAN!"

LG: "And her opponent, representing the Revolution, from Los Angeles, CA, CALIENTE!"

Crowd cheers.

Crowd is about 50-50 here. We get some good matwork to start, with the more experienced Luna controlling. Luna hits two vertical suplexes and drops an elbow for 2. Caliente fights back and hits some dropkicks and a legdrop for 2. Caliente works over Luna's back to build up to her Surfboard finisher. A backbreaker gets 2. Luna fights back and gets a DDT. Her back is still bothering her, so she can't go for the cover. Luna rolls to the outside to regroup. After some words of encouragement from Gangrel, Luna rolls back in and takes over on Caliente. Caliente tries to come back, but Luna hits a big DDT and finishes with a top rope splash at 5:05.

LG: "Here is your winner, LUNA VACHON!"

Post-match, Luna takes the mic and announces that she will be a participant in the Royal Rumble for the JWL Women's Title at JWL SuperBrawl I. Caliente struggles to her feet and announces that she will be in the Rumble as well.

Taz walks to the ring with his orange towel over his head.

Taz takes the mic.

TAZ: "Listen up, Tommy Dreamer. We go back a hell of a long way together. We may have been friends at one point, but we ain't friends no more. I don't like you, and I don't care about you, or about anybody else. You will not stop the Path of Rage. Because I'm Taz, the Human Suplex Machine. Beat me if you can, survive if I let you!"

("Man in the Box" by Alice in Chains plays)

LG: "And his opponent, being led to the ring by Beulah McGillicutty and representing the Hardcore Alliance, from Yonkers, NY, weighing in at 245 lbs., 'THE INNOVATOR OF VIOLENCE' TOMMY DREAMER!"

Tommy brings plunder to the ring, and shakes hands with fans on his way to the ring.

Match starts, and is, of course, a brawl. However, the plunder is abandoned as scientific wrestling takes over. Taz hits some of his big Tazplexes. Taz hits the Head-and-Arm Tazplex for 2. Angry Man's Clothesline and Brooklyn Boot get 2. Dreamer hits some clotheslines and a powerslam for 2. Dreamer hits a vertical suplex of his own for 2. Taz doesn't take too kindly to being suplexed, and hits a big release overhead belly-to-belly Tazplex that sends Tommy to the floor. Beulah offers Tommy a chair and a cookie sheet, which he gladly takes. Dreamer back in and he uses the plunder. Taz stops selling and goes back to the Tazplexes. Finally, Taz hits the T-Bone Tazplex, gives the thumb-across-the-throat sign, and locks on the Tazmission. Tommy fights it, but finally taps out at 7:30.

LG: "Here is your winner, TAZ!"
