The preshow match this week is a handicap encounter pitting Altar Boy Luke and Jimmy Rave against the monster Abyss. The double-teams come quick and often, and they actually manage a few near-falls, but Abyss' strength is just too much as he lays out Rave with a sidewalk slam for the win.

Sting is in the ring to open the PPV with a microphone to cut a promo about his tag team match with AJ Styles against the New Era's leaders Jeff Jarrett and Raven. But before he can get to the good stuff, Jarrett's music hits the speakers and he and Raven are on the ramp. The icon turns his attention to his rivals, but suddenly Mike Sanders and Sonny Siaki are in the ring behind him, and they take him out! Jarrett grabs Sting's microphone and announces that the New Era has begun and the first two recruits are Sanders and Siaki!

The two new members of the New Era are up next in a tag-team match against Sabu and Sandman. The ECW alumni have had a rough go of it the last couple of weeks against BG James and Sean Waltman, and last week, Sanders and Siaki blindsided them, costing them a hardcore rematch. Quick tags throughout the match, with each team picking up two near falls. Sanders picks up the win for his team with 3.0 on Sabu.

After tours of Japan with All-Japan, New Japan, and Zero-One, Amazing Red faces off against Triple X teammates Christopher Daniels and Low Ki! All three men start off with strikes until Red hits Ki with a flying elbow for two. Daniels hits Red with a diving headbutt for two. Red dropkicks Daniels hard in the corner, but eats a brainbuster from Ki, who clamps on the Dragon Clutch for the submission victory and a shot at the X Division Title next week!

Backstage, Buff Bagwell cuts a promo. It's pretty standard self promotion stuff. I'm The Stuff, you're not. Whatever.

Up next is a six-man tag match pitting all three members of the 3 Live Kru against D'Lo Brown and the NWA Tag Team Champions America's Most Wanted. Ron Killings spends a big chunk of the match in the ring, taking on all comers. In the end, though, Chris Harris gains a measure of revenge, pinning Killings with the Catatonic.

Next week, Low Ki will face off against one of these two men for the X Division Title. It's new champion Jerry Lynn defending against Sean Waltman! These two men pull out all the stops against each other, with several near falls and close calls. Lynn nails Waltman with a diving headbutt, and Waltman rolls to the outside. He stays on the floor and walks laps around the ring, picking his moment when he gets a devilish glint in his eye. The referee calls for the bell, counting Waltman out, but Waltman doesn't seem bothered.

He grabs the X Division Title from Lollipop at ringside, then blasts Lynn with it! He stands over the champion, holding the X Title.

And now for our tag-team main event pitting Sting and AJ Styles against New Era's Jeff Jarrett and Raven! Jarrett and Raven, for having such disparate styles, work well as a team together. In the end, though, Jarrett misses an avalanche in the corner, allowing Sting to hit a bulldog and lock in the Scorpion Deathlock for the win as the PPV goes off the air.
