Carnage General Manager Kevin "Titan" McColl made his return to a pretty aggressive crowd in Omaha at the Qwest Center. They booed him at the beginning of the program as he laughed at what he did to Kim a few weeks back. He said to consider it a message to the whole locker room. He then had a special message for the SIW North American Champion Rikki Cook, the guy that knocked him out and put him on the shelf for a week. He announced that for his title defense at Global Warning, he will be the special guest referee.
SIW Champion Shelly the Bod was in attendance as Olivia Danger officiated the first match between Heaven Lee and Michelle. Olivia counted them out after fighting too long on the outside of the ring.

Heaven hit Michelle with Heaven’s Fury and left her out cold in the middle of the ring.

After a promo for TNC Global Warning on PPV August 21 in Sidney, Australia, Travis Dunns and Mike "The Mic" announced the official release of Thursday Carnage Season 1 on DVD.
In the next match, Ryan Vincent took on Envy for the SIW Lightweight Championship. Envy got hit with a kick to the mid section and a closeline which knocked her down with a busted lip. Vincent set up a ladder on the outside and jumped off it back into the ring but Envy moved out of the way of a flying elbow. Envy quickly pinned him with a handful of tights to retain the SIW Lightweight Championship by a hair. This is Envy’s second win over the cruiserweight sensation which left him quite upset in the ring.
Titan was in his office playing black jack on his lap top when all of a sudden Ryan Vincent just walked in. Titan warned him the next time he did that he would loose his head. Vincent apologized and demanded a rematch against Envy. Titan told him that two loses in a row against a girl was pretty disappointing but he had an idea. Next week Titan said a new competitor called Suicidal will be making his debut and his match will be against none other than Ryan Vincent and the winner will face Envy at Global Warning in a match for the SIW Lightweight Championship.

Chimera came close to getting a submission win after he had Lomond in the ChimeraLock but Klubber broke the hold after jumping off the rope with a flying forearm. As Kuone fought Chimera on the outside, Dark Tiger hit Sylk with a Yakuza Kick and went for the pin but he was informed that Sylk wasn’t the legal man in the ring. As Tiger turned around, Lomond pinned him after hitting him with The Bullet. Lomond and Kuone made history when they got the upset win and were crowned new SIW Tag Team champions.

Ragin’ Craig, James Muret and Zach Blain fought in a Triple threat match with the winner becoming the #1 contender for the SIW North American title. Before the match, Rikki Cook told them on the Trevortron that no matter which “loser” makes it to Global Warning they will lose to the greatest NA champ of all time. All three competitors came close with near falls in this epic battle with some of the best Carnage has to offer. After all taking turns at teaming up on each other, Blain was looking good throwing Muret out of the ring and nailing Craig with the Punishment Driver. As he went for the pin, Muret pulled him out of the ring and whipped him into the steel steps. Muret nailed Craig with a shoulder block on the apron knocking down the referee. Craig suplexed him in the ring and delivered the Rage Factor. He went for the pin but the ref was still down. Craig had to get up to punch Blain back off the apron but from behind, Muret delivered the Flatliner. The ref barely came to his senses to make the count as Muret pinned Craig to win the match. All three competitors shook hands at the end of the match showing great sportsmanship. Right after the match, it was announced that Craig and Zach will indeed be at GW as a team to take on the new SIW Tag Team Champions.
After the match, Michelle came out and started a fight with Shelly The Bod at ringside. She pulled the champ over the steel rail by her hair and started slapping her. Craig pulled her off and threw her the other way. He helped Shelly up and let her powerbomb Michelle off the entrance ramp. As she was escorted out of the building, Shelly told Xtina that what she did to her sister was just a little preview of what’s going to happen in their match on Monday. A few weeks back, Xtina tried to end the career of Shelly the Bod but obviously failed.
In a breaking news update, Dunns and Mike announced that the new SIW European Champion Dallas Nash has been stripped of the championship and released by the company because of drug charges that were brought up against him. General Manager Greg Banks will make a decision as to what will happen with the championship next Monday night.
In the main event, SIW Heavyweight Champion Gavin Payne and SIW Extreme Champion NuTz took on Matt Uzi and SIW North American Champion Rikki Cook in tag team action. Uzi managed to get the upper hand after countering Payne’s DDT into the Uzi-plex early in the match. Frequent tags kept Uzi and Cook in control until Cook charged NuTz and got thrown to the outside with a back body drop. Payne drop kicked Uzi and then whipped him to the corner. After a corner splash the heavyweight champion called for his finisher but out of nowhere a masked man entered the ring and leveled the heavyweight champion to his skull with a fire extinguisher busting him wide open. As Nutz got on the apron, Cook suplexed him in the ring and held him up for Uzi to bust him open as well with steel chair. As Uzi, the masked person and Cook continued their assault, Uzi pushed Cook towards the masked person who leveled the NA champ with a DDT on the chair as the program ending.
