Bram vs Tommy Dreamer
Dreamer runs out and attacks Bram on the ramp, then he sends him into the apron before Bram punches him a few times and busts him open. Dreamer whips him into the ringpost and hits a suplex on the floor, then Dreamer hits Bram in the face as we go to a break. We get back to see Bram smash Dreamer in the head with a trash can, then Dreamer avoids a strike and hits him in the face with a kendo stick. Dreamer uses it to hit a side Russian legsweep, then he drops Bram crotch first on a chair and follows with a clothesline for two. He sets Bram up in tree of woe position and dropkicks a trash can into his face, then Bram catches him with a judo throw and heads up top with a chair.
Dreamer kicks it into his face on the way down down and hits a DDT for two, then he sets up for a piledriver but Magnus runs in and hits a side slam onto a chair. Magnus tells Bram to pick Dreamer up, and Magnus hits Dreamer in the stomach, then Bram tries to slam him on a chair wrapped in barbed wire but Al Snow runs out for the save. Snow runs Magnus off and Dreamer scrapes a cheese grater across Bram’s head, then he wedges the barbed wire chair in the corner and tries to hit a Death Valley Driver into it. Bram floats over and whips Dreamer facefirst into the chair, then he pulls him away from the barbed wire and hits an elevated DDT for the win.
Winner – Bram
