The results are as follows:

• Race to the Chase First-Round Match: Thom Latimer defeated Chris Adonis
  • During the match, Joe Galli announced that Mike Knox was given a first-round bye in the tournament.
• In an interview, Knox discusses his bye and says he has a kink in his back, as he might have hurt it when he slammed Bully Ray through a table. He says he got a bye because Billy Corgan and Matt Cardona said so. Knox discusses his feud with Bully Ray and says he’s seeing him everywhere. He says he hates Ray, and he’ll be “on him” whenever he shows up.

  • After the match, Kay is asked about being the “gateway” to Kamille and her title. She says Bully Ray told her that staying close to the champion is in her best interest.
• Backstage, NWA Worlds Heavyweight Championship Trevor Murdoch says he did the right thing by getting Tim Storm’s ban on challenging for the gold lifted. He says he doesn’t care who he faces’ he’ll take on anyone.
• Race to the Chase First-Round Match: Nick Aldis defeated Tim Storm by DQ
  • Storm accidentally collided with the referee during the match. He hit the Perfect Storm, but the referee was down. Storm then kicked Aldis below the belt, and the official saw it, so he called for the bell.
