The Order (Eli Knox and Dorian Vain) come out with Hollywood Jimmy for an interview with Jaxx Roxx. Jaxx accuses them of being scared of James Storm and Aaron Roberts. Jimmy says he's not scared of a wannabe cowboy and says James Storm is Woody from Toy Story. Eli says they were the most respected and feared group in the company a few weeks ago. Eli says they will show Storm what they are all about and it'll be the last time he sticks his nose in their business.
Dorian says the night Aaron Roberts took his title, he didn't want to do anything. He says his identity is being champ and he's been born for the top. He says Aaron took it from him. Dorian says he will get his identity and title back while taking Aaron's health. He says Storm is in The Order's way and he won't be able to weather this storm. He says that's an executive order.

Thoughts: It was a shorter one. Ross hit some nasty looking lariats here. It didn't really get the time to be anything too great.
Wonder Boy is interviewed. He says he knows he has the support of the EPW Universe. He says he has great responsibility by holding the cup and has to face Mike Anthony next week. Mike comes in. He says he wonders what Wonder wonders. He says he bets Wonder is wondering what he wonders. Mike says he's not here to be a hero and is simply here to win. Wonder Boy has no comments about that.

He says he's a big fan of Storm and says he's never seen Storm turn down a fight either. Storm says it'd be like him turning down a cold beer - he doesn't do that either. Storm says he's going to order up and @ss whipping. He says The Order can say what they want but now they gotta take their orders. Storm says they are coming to the ring and are ordering 2 jobbers. Storm says all they will hear at the night is, "sorry about your d@mn luck". Aaron says he always wanted to say that so they do it again and let Aaron say it.
Jabari Young and Enrico Sterdivant vs Isiah Cone and Ty Miller
Both teams had mystery partners here. Zay Washington is on commentary.

Enrico clubs on Ty then germans him for 2. Ty slaps him and Enrico knees him in the gut. Ty corkscrew kicks Enrico. Cone gets tagged in along with JY.

Ty topes Enrico outside. Cone backrolls JY for 2. Cone slingshot cutters JY for the win.
Thoughts: I wasn't a fan of this. This was one of the first matches of the new Jabari/Enrico/Zay alliance and they needed a win here. They were also facing a random face team. The big comeback sequence for the faces got botched and it just wasn't the best.
Zay Washington gets mad after. Him and Enrico hit the faces from behind. Jabari joins in. Zay suplexes the faces down and the heels stand over top of them.
Overall thoughts: It was a below average show. There was just nothing that great here and main didn't really deliver which didn't help things. Moses Cain's match may have been the best thing on here and that was a squash, so that should give you an idea of the quality on this one. I did like all the interviews and recap footage though as it made this feel like a more complete show. I wouldn't recommend this one and would just give it a 4 out of 10.
