    Doring chases Elektra so Chris Hamrick attacks him & this allows Hot Commodity to take control with Money Clip over the rail and a springboard bulldog. Money even adds an EZ Bomb but a dazed Doring lands on his balls.

    Doring uses the opening to tag Roadkill & he cleans house with Barnburner & Amish Bomb before he also gives Money an extreme wedgie; then Elektra interferes and opens the door for Julio to hit Jalapeño Popper.

    This brings out Spike Dudley. Lou sees him, so he mocks Dudley & asks him why he would call himself a Dudley then Lou tries to explain why Chetti is there, but Spike cuts him off.

Anderson uses a chair and leg holds until Dreamer gets a Christmas present from Towel Boy & it contains razor wire! Anderson grabs Towel Boy and pulls him into the ring.

    It backfires as Dreamer & Towel Boy use metal trays on Anderson before Anderson rallies with a Ferris Wheel, then he gives Towel Boy a stalling superplex and drops Dreamer with a spinebuster on the razor wire.

    Anderson uses the chair on Dreamer’s neck and suplexes him onto two chairs; with Dreamer down, Anderson introduces a table into the mix. Fighting on the top rope follows this, but Dreamer hits a super Spicolli Driver onto the table then he wraps the plastic strip from the table around Anderson’s eyes as he yanks back until Anderson quits.
