Report by Brian TuckerMaven vs. Stevie Richards
Maven comes out to huge applause, but no response from Snow. Stevie comes out to many, many boos, though. As the match begins, Stevie orders Maven to wipe down, and cheap shots him. A chop in the corner, but Maven delivers a monkey toss followed by a dropkick. Maven is whipped into the arena barricade, and feels the pain. Richards stomps at Maven, and begins crushing his ribs. Scoop slam, and a stomp get Richards a 2. Abdominal stretch is locked in, as Maven struggles valiantly. Maven looks so different, so lean. A monkey toss delivered to Richards, but Maven gets a reverse atomic drop. Steven is backdropped, and continuously clotheslined. He then whips Richards into the corner for a 2 count. Richards foil Maven’s upstairs attempt, and the Stevie-T is comin’. Wait, but Maven reverses into a big slam for the 1-2-3.
winner: Maven

Rhyno vs. Rory McGregor
As the match begins, Rhyno is in control of the kilt-wearing Scotsman. Many chant for the Gore, and the “lost Headbanger” gets a 2 count. Rory pounds at Rhyno for another 2. Rhyno is gunned into the turnbuckle, and a chinlock is applied to Rhyno. A reverse into a back suplex by Rhyno, as both men struggle to get up. Rhyno’s chin hurts, and he delivers an angry belly-to-belly. Here it comes…GORE!!!!!!!!
winner: Rhyno
Dave Batista vs. Val Venis
Batista is met with a mixed reaction, and Venis is met with likewise (since he played the heel last week). Val dispenses (!) with the gyrations, and tries to get the crowd going. Batista is pumped, but Val won’t back down. Kicks are dispensed to Dave, but he delivers a good Manhattan Drop. Venis begins to focus on the leg and knee of Batista, as he is thrown out. Both come back in, and Val is met with a clothesline. Big vertical suplex is delivered, as Batista works on the ribs of Venis. Val begins to punch Dave, but a huge spinebuster is delivered for the 1-2-no! Batista applies a Super Camel Clutch to Venis, as both strains to either continue or get out of the hold. Batista punches Venis a bit, and delivers another vertical suplex for another 2. Dave continues to work Val’s back, but Val schoolboys Dave for 2. Venis reverses the Tigerbomb into a neckbreaker, and is superplexed off the top rope. Batista connects with a Tigerbomb and covers for the 1-2-3.
winner: Batista
