As the bell rings, Ameer paces around the ring, keeping his eyes on both VOPW and Tom Carter, realizing that he's at a major disadvantage in this match. Carter backs off, allowing Ameer and VOPW to continue a long standing rivalry. Ameer gets the upper hand early on, with quick chops and kicks.

VOPW notices the opening and begins to strike the back of Ameer's head, with strikes, forearms and kicks. VOPW locks in a vise grip styled submission, further injuring the head of Ameer. It's at this point the crowd rally behind Ameer, cheering him on to fight back. Ameer fights his way out of the submission, and begins to comeback, with yet more strikes, followed up by an impressive tilt-a-whirl backbreaker. Ameer runs off the ropes, looking to clothsline VOPW out of the ring, when he meets a huge big boot from Carter. Ameer collapes onto the mat. Carter now starts to take over from VOPW. Carter picks Ameer up, looking for a back suplex, but Ameer reverses it and hits a crossbody on Carter. The ref runs over, 1...2...3! "Tom Carter has been eliminated!" Bobby Cruise announces.
