Rob Van Dam (Battle Creek, MI, 230 pounds) vs John Heidenreich (New Orleans, LO, 275 pounds) - Rob approves of Fink's announcing. Your hosts are Al and Coach. "Another star studded night on Heat". Al gives all credit to StevieCorp. Ah, someone decided to see just how flexible RVD can be. "[John] is a brutal, and I mean brutal, competitor." Lockup, RVD pushed down, but he rolls through it. Points To Self. John, apparently having turned heel since the last time we saw him, misses a clothesline, RVD with punches that leave much to be desired, John ends that with a knee. Whip, head down too soon, RVD rolls over him, wheel dropkick connects. Rights, kicks in the corner. Shoulder, shoulder, superfluously flip, John makes him pay with a clothesline. Stomp. Side backbreaker. One two no. Forearm to the back. So they're not letting him work the head. Corner whip, RVD grabs his back. Repeat. Elevated bearhug. RVD fighting out with forearms, but John runs him back first in the corner. Charge, but RVD gets his boot up. Up to the second rope, somersault senton bodyblock (we'll say), but John is up first and clotheslining RVD back down. Al debates that it should be called a 'hilo'. Back to the bearhug. RVD elbows out. Forearm. John tries to stop this with a kick, but it's caught and John tastes the step over heel kick. John up again, but charging right into a drop toe hold into the middle buckle. RVD off the ropes, wheel kick. Up top, top rope kick to the chest. Sliding dropkick to push John into position, Rolling Thunder, one two no. RVD with a kick off the ropes, and right into the side slam. That was his move back when he had a move, and John yells before covering. one two NO. Forearm to the back. Forearm to the back. Corner whip, no back to the same corner, right hand. Suplex, no, RVD lands behind, loses his balance, back up, ducks a back elbow, springboard kick to the head. That's it. Up to the top. Five Star Frog Splash. Crawling back over one two three. (5:02) Replay of splash. And another. But what of Little Johnny?

Pat and Rosey lockup to start, Rosey forcing Pat into the corner. Break? Pat gets in a kick, right, forearm, whip, no I don't think so. Rosey with a whip, shoulderblock.

Lockup, Rude with a waistlock and forces Hurricane aback over Pat, Pat grabs Hurricane as Rude punches Hurricane in the back, Rude is yelled away, Hurricane decks Pat (I guess), Hurricane turns around and Rude runs him into the corner. Shoulders to the midsection, pulled out for a back suplex. Tag to Pat. Side slam. One two no. Hurricane using the rope to pull himself up, but takes a turnbuckle smash anyway. Tag to Rude, suplex one two no. Knee to the back. Forearm. Kick to the back. Kneeling surfboard. Hurricane getting up and turning it, rights, Rude with a knee to the midsection to stop it. Back suplex, Hurricane lands on his feet - well, one foot, one knee, so Rude has a moment to kick him. Corner whip, Rude charges in, Hurricane meets him with "a bollo forearm!" Tag to Rosey. Boot for Rude, clothesline for Pat, back elbow for Rude, side slam for Pat, scoop slam for Bobby. Spinning legdrop one two Pat breaks it up. Headbutt for Pat causes Pat to throw himself over the top rope. Rosey's distracted by that lack of logic, so Rude charges, and gets dropped with a spinebuster.

Test and Steven brawl down the ramp while Victoria rushes the ring. Molly rushes out, Victoria after her, so Molly decides she'll find an exit in the crowd. Molly and Victoria yell from a distance while Test gets a momentarily advantage on Steven Richards and heads in the ring. Victoria notices this and charges the ring, jumping on Test's back. Test fights to get her off, and Steven comes in to help the two on one. Test gets beat down down by Steven and Victoria while AL wonders about missing medication at the hospital this week. Earl Hebner is having no luck with this, so Chioda and Patten are out there to help pull Steven and Victoria off.

Cade and Bubba to start, Cade with a waistlock, Bubba having to fight to get out, but gets a headlock takedown one two no.

Cade pushes Bubba in the corner, gets shoved away but comes back with a knee. Forearms to the eye socket. Cade distracts as Jindrak takes off the eye patch and socks Bubba in the bad eye. Bubba collapses. Bubba's swinging blindly, and Cade boots him in the head. Elbow to the head. Bubba yells for D-Von. Forearm. Choke on the middle rope.

Another distraction so Jindrak can claw at the eye - D-Von extends it by arguing with Chioda. Cade with a snap mare, and a kneeling surfboard. Is Bubba's nose bleeding? Bubba battling to his feet, right, right right, headlock, shot off, no Bubba's got the ropes and he's kicking Cade. Clothesline for Jindrak on the apron, but Bubba collapses.

Right for Cade, right for Jindrak, right for Cade, right for Jindrak, clothesline by Cade misses, reverse neckbreaker for Cade, clothesline for Cade. Cade runs right into a powerslam, but D-Von hurt himself on it and doesn't cover. Jindrak over but D-Von punching him to put a stop to it. Jindrak stops him with a knee, but Cade accidentally clotheslines Jindrak for no clear reason (D-Von didn't have to duck, because he was already ducking - that Cade meant to hit D-Von was the idea, I'm sure.) Inside cradle on Cade one two NO. D-Von is hurting but hitting a corner clothesline. D-Von is staggered, but manages to put Cade on the top rope. Meanwhile, Jindrak trips Bubba on the apron, and Bubba's head hits the apron. He's probably done. Jindrak in but Chioda is trying to block him from getting to D-Von. Jindrak eludes Chioda and punch D-Von in the ribs, knocking him to the mat. Cade standing up - top rope elbow to the ribs one two three! (7:42) Big win, but then, they would've been suckers if they couldn't have won. I wanted to like because how often do you work over an eye, but they were still a bit off.
