Hour #1
**Donnie DiCaprio comes out to the ring bemoaning his recent bad luck and lack of wins. He says he needs a sure win, needs to get back on the winning track so he challenges J.D. McKay to the ring. The confused veteran comes out and asks DiCaprio what he is playing at as the crowd begins to grow an instant dislike to DiCaprio. However, in the end McKay accepts the match
Donnie DiCaprio defeats J.D. McKay by pinfall
**fueled by his anger over being called out McKay makes DiCaprio think twice about his "easy win" comments. In fact DiCaprio has to resort to chokes and other illegal moves to get the advantage. And in the end he needs a handfull of tights too to secure the tainted win.
**Jody Christmas is told that he does not get a rematch tonight against Uriah because he has a scheduled title defense for the TV title against the #1 contender Collin Green. He is told that even if he forfeits the belt he won't get a HWC title match tonight, so he decides to defend the TV title.
Non-title match: Asp Evergreen & Eddie Chavez defeated Buck Kake & El Camino by pinfall
**the current champs have little trouble with the former champs. They look forward to meeting next week with the winners of the #1 contender match. While they won't pick a favorite, they say its probably a good move for Coleman & Foley to have dumped Grindhouse Barbie.
Lacey & Rain versus Deanna Conda & Annie Social ends in a no-contest
**After last week's tune-up of the women's roster on Nikki Crawford, instead of settling things it seemed to just stir things up more. Nikki Crawford showed up at ringside with a basket. She pulled off the top and released several large snakes into the ring. All the women freaked even the hardedged Conda and Social. The ref climbed to the top buckle and called for the bell...and help.
Gregor Wynn defeated Moses Luke in a Russian chain match
**Luke controlled most of this match using the chain to bust up Wynn. The match was edited for TV with some parts cut out and other parts obscured due to the violent and bloody nature. However in the end, although he had a bit of outside help from Ivan, for the most part Wynn won the match himself. He used a smart attack of wrapping Luke's hand across the ringpost with the chain and doing some massive damage. He then used the top rope with the chain over it to choke and hang Luke. Eventually he finished him off with a modified swining neckbreaker using the chain. The fact that Donnie DiCaprio did not come out at all to help his tag partner was not lost on the announce team.
Hour #2
#1 Contenders match; Rulon Gardner & Raymond Bingham defeated Thaddeus Coleman & Ricky Foley
**the fans had no clue who to cheer for but quickly decided that Bingham's huge ego was enough to make him enemy #1. Gardner & Bingham wrestled circles around the bigger but less skilled former football players who looked clumsy and out of timing. Gardner and Bingham used the old referee distraction when their opponents tried to make a tag thus frustrating their opponents. The end came when the ref had to physically hold back Coleman, and this allowed Gardner and Bingham to nail a stuffed piledriver on Foley.
**following the match Jessica Hatch came into the ring to talk to a dejected Coleman and Foley. She made sure they understood that Uriah was languishing under Derek St.  Holmes before she took over his career, now he is the heavweight champ. They don't even have a manager right now. She offers to manage them and promises them that she will lead them to the tag titles again. It's unlikely the big lugs absorbed everything she was saying as they were fascinated with her daisy dukes shorts and tank top. But they nodded their heads yes, picked their tongues off the mat, and followed her out of the ring.
RCW Women's Title Match
Amy Bates defeated Grindhouse Barbie by pinfall in an Apartment Wrestling Match
[Amy Bates won the RCW Women's Title]
**Bates beat the living hell out of Barbie from using one of her hundred pairs of shoes in the bedroom, to smashing the framed Quentin Tarantino movie poster over Barbie's head in the living room, to trying to bust her open with a cheese grater in the kitchen. The match spilled out of the apartment into the hallway where Barbie gained a quick advantage when one of the neighbors tried to intervene, and then Barbie opened up a fire extinguisher on Bates. But back inside the apartment Bates took control again with a monkey flip that sent Barbie smacking into the glass balcony doors. Bates soon hit a spinning DDT off the kitchen table and covered for the win and the title.
RCW Television Title Match
Jody Christmas and Collin Green battled to a no-contest
[Christmas retained the TV Title]
**Christmas controlled early showing his experience and confidence advantage. As usual Green kept up a running conversation with the ref, Christmas, some fans, etc, but as the match wore on he was a bit more quiet then usual. As the match wore on Green not only became quieter but he also started to take control of the match. Christmas got a temporary reprieve when he nailed Green with a knee to the groin in the corner, undetected by the ref. Christmas followed up with a double underhook suplex, and was about to climb to the top rope when heavyweight champion Uriah slid into the ring.
The big champ caught Christmas and brought him down with a slam. He followed up with a powerbomb. Green tried to attack Uriah from behind but he got caught with a chokeslam for his trouble. Christmas launched himself at the champ but the behemoth scooped him up and delivered a running slam into the buckle. He proceeded to hang him in the tree of whoa, and allowed his manager Jessica Hatch to start to slap the taste out of his mouth.
Suddenly the lights flickered several times, getting the champ's attention, and "Dangerous Tonight" by Alice Cooper filled the arena. Some of the fans, those that remembered Mid-American Pro Wrestling from around 2004 (the predecessor to APW) knew what to expect and started to cheer out of anticipation but perhaps not happiness.
"Dangerous" Darren Michaels slid into the ring holding a barb-wire covered baseball bat. The former NWA, WWA, PWA, and MAPW star had a staredown with Uriah. But when the lights began to flicker again the champ seemed to have had enough confrontation for one night and left the ring with his manager Hatch.
What is Darren Michaels, perhaps the most sadistic man to ever step foot into a mid-western ring doing in APW?
