Last week's tag match is recapped with Cabana's win getting him a shot at the National Title tonight. The opening for the show gets better and better as it uses a couple of minutes to get over key moves, storylines, and acts - it's unbelievably efficient. Colt comes out to chat with Dave Marquez about main eventing last week and he deserves it - Team Aldis beat Storm's team and he gets a shot tonight IN THE MAIN EVENT. Aron Stevens' loss is recapped and he comes out and he demands they shut up with the Captain Morgan stuff and he wants to show that he is better than Ricky Starks. He has requested a rematch in a more traditional NWA-style match. He isn't sure what that is yet, but he did find out that he is a great, great great great great great grandson of Shakespeare. He says he has a script from Hollywood and if he doesn't get respect, he will leave wrestling. Aldis announces that the NWA is coming to RetroMania Wrestling!
The Dawsons kill Mimis and Kingsley quickly. Kingston and Homicide come out and they want another match and they're willing to put that on the line against them to get them in the ring. Joe Galli talks to Tim Storm about what it's like to be on top and then lose that. He sees Powerrr as a chance to redeem himself. Galli says that he could always ask Corgan to get a shot, but Storm says he's a man of his word. Aldis pulls him aside and says that nothing with this company now happens without what he did. Now this is some simple character-building and it's perfect. In ONE MINUTE, they made you care about Tim Storm and showed that Aldis has a heart.
Ashley Vox faces Thunder Rosa, who beats her quickly with a double stomp off the top to the back after a flash dropkick. Rosa jumps her and Belle runs in and Rosa wants her to attack her, but Marti won't. Marti says she's fought Rosa before and then Allysin Kay comes out and gets jumped by Rosa. Marti pump kicks Kay after not doing that to Vox. Stevens demands a 2/3 falls match against Starks. Stevens is wearing his terrible flesh-colored gear and loses fall 1 via a schoolboy in 3 seconds. A guy in an orange santa outfit tells him that was one fall and we get a minor YES chant in a new context.
Fall 2 has more action from Stevens, including him taking some big chops. He sends him down, but curtsees and gets cradled for an all-too-revealing victory roll. Another RetroMania Wrestling ad airs. Storm and Cabana come out with Eli out and Kennedy on the side of Cabana. The National Title looks so good on Storm with his revamped red gear. They have a fun little match that winds up being a backdrop for Kamille to stir shit up and Cabana wins with the Superman Pin again.
Storm gives him a thumbs up for the win before the Dawsons come out and want their match now. Outlaw Inc uses fish hooks and a kick combo to get the win with a gringo cutter with the help of the RNR Express taking out the Wild Cards when they try to get involved. What a great show. This format is perfect and this is the most efficient wrestling show in the business.
