Tommy Dreamer scored an emotional, violent win at IMPACT Rebellion.
In a promo ahead of the match, Dreamer tearfully described how his mother is in the hospital with a brain bleed, and the past week has been the worst of his life. He noted that he would be going away for a while after the Hardcore War, making the match that much more special.
Team Dreamer (Tommy Dreamer, Bhupinder Gujjar, Frankie Kazarian, Yuya Uemura, and Killer Kelly) then battled Team Bully (Bully Ray, Kenny King, Moose, Brian Myers, and Masha Slamovich) in a match that featured plenty of weapons, including a chair, a cheese-grater, and some tables. At one point in the match, Bully Ray yelled at some referees, and they turned on him by attacking him. Dreamer ultimately earned the win when he hit a splash off a ladder, sending through Ray a table, and pinned the veteran for the win.
