* Kenny King is backstage and talks to Kenny King about how he can’t find Scott D’Amore anymore. Jean asks King why he keeps blaming every new rival he has, pointing out how he did it with Aldis, Hendry and Dreamer. And now they have a Heath problem. King says Heath now has a problem but it’s just them now and he’s going to atone for his sins. And his sins will leave his kids broke.

* Gia Miller asks KiLynn King about not being able to get along with Jody Threat last week. King says of course she’s not going to get along with Jody Threat because she’s selfish, a cancer and a fraud. She says Jody is acting like a good girl, and Santino walks in and says that King said it was a tire iron attack on Taylor Wilde, which no one knew beforehand. King tries to play it off but admits she attacked Wilde because she became dead weight. It’s no longer long live the Coven; it’s long live the King.

Thoughts: This followed the usual “a couple people in, a couple people out” of the multi-man match format. The storyline with Singh and Dango worked well and Prudius’ return gives Dango a nice boost. Not a must-see match, but far from bad.

Rating: *** 1/4
Thoughts: You either like this kind of thing or you don’t. It was brutal enough with the bleeding to the chest from Kaz an the cookie sheets to the head (the latter I don’t like), and they threw it all out there. Kaz and Eddie work well together and it showed here. Good hardcore match, and a nice blow-off to the feud.

And with that, we’re done for the night!
