So technically Credible did not put Antony through a table nor did Evans do the same to Fenriz being that they crashed through the tables themselves. As for
Credible defeating Evans in the end, that was definitely one for the books. Let's also not forget the presence of Jack Ripper at ringside. I'm sure Jack Evans was none too happy about that.

So the team of Diablo and Starring got the win despite Travis LaGrange's interferences throughout the match. As a matter of fact, his interference may have cost Van Wild the pinfall that finished his team off. Wild was seen screaming at LaGrange after the match and they got into a shoving match that was quickly broken up by ringside security.

Mexican Death No-Countout-No-DQ-Falls-Count-Anywhere Match with Managers Banned From Ringside:
Chavo Guerrero Jr. pinned Kevin J. Ridge after a Northern Lights suplex in
          0:13:09.
Rating: **** 1/4

Chavo got himself yet another victory. This time Ridge can not say it was tainted since Chavo Jr had no help from Chavo Sr. But he did put up quite a fight. I'm sure we will see more from these two men soon enough.

Bed of Nails No-Countout-No-DQ-Match:
Jonathan Smith and Halloween defeated Hell's Angels (Anger and Hate) in 0:03:22.
Rating: * 3/4

This match was not the best match of talent. I will admit it and the fans obviously felt it.

Dog Collar Table No-Countout-No-DQ-Match:
Christian and James Robinson defeated Dom Donovan and Chuck when Robinson defeated Donovan by putting him through a table in 0:04:41.
Rating: ** 1/2
(Lance Williams no-showed.)

Lance Williams was attacked prior to the match and the referee was going to call the match off and give the win to Cumshot Feminists BUT...

Christian came down and offered to tag with James Robinson. We're not sure what the relationship is between Christian and Team Xtreme but whatever it is, it works well because Christian and James Robinson were able to exact a bit of revenge against Cumshot Feminists.

We will see a rematch of this next week with Lance Williams hopefully able to be back at the side of Robinson.

CM Punk and Trent Acid defeated Steve Austin and Ben Tuckwell in a Fans Supply The Weapons Match when Punk pinned S. Austin after the Pepsi Plunge in 0:15:16.
Rating: ** 1/2

The fans were pleased as a pig in sh*t that they got to participate in this match by helping add to the carnage and there was quite the carnage as everything including a sack of potatoes were used as a weapon.

The RPW has realized that having these four men all together in one match is a clusterf*ck and has signed two singles matches for next week.

[World Tag title defense]: Glass Death No-Countout-No-DQ-Falls-Count-Anywhere Match:
Afternoon Delight (Lee Awesome and Lee Handsome) defeated Gangsta Heaven (Gotti and Hoffa) when Total Lee pinned Gotti with the Like A Rolling Stone in 0:12:04.
Rating: ** 3/4
(Afternoon Delight retained the World Tag Titles.)

Gangsta Heaven were declared the new #1 contenders after they defeated Hell's Angels last week and as much as they tried this week, they were not able to gain a victory over the tag champs to claim the titles.

[Winner Goes On To Face Maxis for the World title]: No-Countout-No-DQ-Cage Match:
Frank Knight pinned Jack Ripper with the Uncle Frank's Funhouse in 0:09:26.
Rating: ****

Frank Knight got some revenge over Jack Ripper and in the process, he moved one match away from gaining the RPW World title. Can he do it? Let's get to the next match and find out.

No-Time-Limit-No-Countout-No-DQ-I-Quit Match:
Maxis Cendres made Frank Knight submit to an airplane spin in 0:06:23.
Rating: ****
(Maxis Cendres retained the World Title.)

Maxis was close to losing the title at one point but in the end, he made Frank Knight submit in order to hold on to his title for one more week.

[Last 5 qualify for the Rumble Pro Rumble]: 25-Man Battle Royal:
Scott Starring won a 25-man Battle Royal:
        x Chuck threw out LaGrange in 0:01:46
        x Fenriz defeated KJR after a splash in 0:02:11
        x Starring threw out Gregorson in 0:03:24

        x Christian defeated Punk after a vertical facebuster in 0:24:20
        x Starring defeated J. Evans after an Asai moonsault in 0:26:48
        x Starring defeated Christian after a Northern Lights suplex in
          0:27:53
Rating: **** 3/4
[Lily-Ann Smith and Marty Lyons interfered against Justin Credible.]
[Jason interfered against Jonathan Smith.]
[Marty Lyons interfered against Dom Donovan.]
[Trish Stratus interfered against Tony Antony.]
[Marty Lyons interfered against Rob Van Dam.]
[Marty Lyons interfered against Scott Starring.]

Just like the past two battle royals, this one had our winner getting his hands dirty and doing alot of eliminating on his own. In the end, it came down to Christian and Starring who traded eliminations back and forth and it was Starring who got the major win. Along with him, we will see Christian, Jack Evans, CM Punk, and Lark Fenriz in the Rumble match as well. Starring gets the big bonus of having next week off to prepare for this HUGE match in a few weeks.

Card rating: *** 1/2

Match observations:

We had ourselves quite a night and next week will be just as good if not better. Here's the lineup:

- Real Xtreme vs Cumshot Feminists in a rematch
RX is hot over CSF trying to take Lance out and i'm sure the normal confines of the ring won't be able to hold that heat so this has become a CAGE match.

- LaGrange vs Van Wild vs Diablo
After the events of tonight's 6 man tag match, there was only one way to settle this craziness. Put all 3 men in the ring at the same time and let them settle it themselves.

- Tuckwell vs Punk
- Austin vs Acid
Let's see how these four men do battle w/o their partners at their side and banned from ringside.

- RVD vs Sabu
The battle of the former partners has finally come to a head.

- Justin Credible vs mystery
J.C. is pumped after going through Evans, Fenriz and Antony tonight and has put an open contract out there.

- Magnusson vs KJR
The big Lucifer Magnusson was given next week off again to prepare for the Rumble Pro Rumble match but he didn't want anymore hiatus and plans to put a hurting on Kevin Ridge.

- In a rematch for the World Tag titles...  
Afternoon Delight vs Gangsta Heaven with standard rules so no hardcore and titles can change hands via DQ or CO.

-And our final battle royal qualifying 5 men for the Rumble Pro Rumble will be a bunkhouse brawl.

- Also in 2 weeks we will have a special showcase match of the 4 winners of the qualifying battle royals in an Ultimate X match with the winner getting the #20 slot.

- Finally, more rumors have been coming out about Justin Kell. He has been heard talking about being in the arena for our next big event as a fan and is going to make a huge impact on RPW and the face of professional wrestling.

We'll see ya next week.

The battle royals are an interesting concept to qualify for the Rumble. I was thinking after the last show that the guys who won deserved something extra for their efforts - a chance to get the #20 slot (assuming there are 20 entrants) seems the perfect reward. There's quite a few big names who judging by that last battle royal are struggling to qualify. It'll be interesting to see if they really do miss out.

Yeah - i figured the time off from action (aside from making an appearance or two during a match) was a decent reward but then i decided to go for the Ultimate X style 4 way to gain that #20 slot. Only problem is i don't know if the Ultimate X FCA Cubed plugin can handle 4 guys ... if not, im gonna prolly go with a 4 way Tables and Ladders match for the slot.

As for people struggling to make it in this last chance battle royal next week, I definitely feel like it's anybodys game at this point. I don't want to give too much away but i've already got some plans to shake up the Rumble so the 20 you see qualify may not indeed be the 20 that end up in the Rumble.
