the match is set.
*Samoa Joe & Taz remain in the ring for Joe's upcoming match.
*Hernandez defeated Samoa Joe w/Taz with a splash off the top rope. Hernandez has a new look, Mexican flag designed bike shorts, looked great. Crowd was hot for him the entire match and went nuts when he got the pin. Solid good match.
The World Elite of Eric Young, The British Invasion, Sheik Abdul Bashir & Kiyoshi come to the ring. Brutus Magnus introduces Eric Young as their leader. He says he's the center of attention and belittles the fans about how they would laugh at him, who's laughing now? He runs down America & the people who live here. He says he's making his own decisions, he's all about who he wants to be and begins to shave his head. He said this is where the entertainment ends and the violence begins. Team 3D comes out..Brother Ray on the mic says, this is America...love it or leave it. He says each of the World Elite can go back where they came from. He says when you hear tonight, Devon..get the tables...you'll know you're in the greatest country in the world. They charge the ring to start their
match.
Tables Match for the IWGP Tag Titles: British Invasion defeated Team 3D to become the new champions. Earl Hebner was knocked out during the match, Devon put Brutus Magnus through a table, but Eric Young hit Devon with the title belt, then pulled Magnus from the rubble and revived Hebner for him to see Devon through the table for the win.
