OVW TV (HOUR 1):
Bryan Kennison & Shannon the Dude are on commentary, Eric Cornish is the ring announcer.
We start off with Al Snow in the ring. He is out to talk about the ending to last week's show when Haley J attacked Sierra and some of the officials on the way out after losing the sock of rocks on a pole match. Haley says she has been working hard carrying the Women's division and thinks Al is going to give her an award. Al says her actions last week were not fitting of a professional, and is going to fine her. Haley gives him $300, but Al says that is not even going to scratch the surface. He is also going to suspend her. She says good, she needs a vacation. Al says he is also stripping her of the title as she vacations at the beach. Haley says no way. She tries to run through two referees at ringside, but then runs into an officer who is a friend of Al's. He cuffs her and Al says that it only makes sense for the title to go to the #1 contender. He asks Dani Mo to come out. He presents the title to Dani, but she wants to earn it. She doesn't want it to be just handed to her. Sierra comes out and asks Dani if she said she wants to earn it. Dani says that's true. Sierra wants to be her opponent, because she pinned Haley last week. Al says he will make the match for the vacated Women's Title at the next special Reckoning on August 28!

Luscious agrees that the House of Luscious hasn't been in order, but he does expect to go on and become the new champion. Ronnie says they are on the opposite side of the bracket from one another and he's getting slept on in this tournament. Luscious says he's going to make it real oily, real juicy, lay it down real good. He then plants a kiss on Ronnie to end this edition of the Good Word.
RUSH TITLE MATCH: Gustavo vs. Blanco Loco vs. Star Rider (c).
Offense so fast-paced, it was hard for Bryan & Shannon to call the action at ringside and for me to try and type! Loco controls the action for a bit, then Gustavo does after planting Loco & Star with a double DDT. Loco stomps on Gustavo's fingers and then hits a backbreaker for 2. Star comes back, kicking Loco and hitting some forearms. He hits Loco with a backstabber, then Gustavo clotheslines him.

After the match, D'mone runs back in and attacks Gustavo. He locks in a Figure Four and Loco & Star hit him off. Officials come out to check on Gustavo and D'mone attacks again. He is hit off again by Star & Loco. He grabs a mic and tells Gustavo he was supposed to be in the match, and that title is his. He tells Gustavo once he is able to stand, he knows he'll want revenge, and D'mone wants that title!
