Notes:
1- Shadow Warrior signed the contract and wrestled in the first 2 of 3 falls.
Later Storm Kelly (dressed exactly the same as
Shadow) switched places and pinned Joe O. for the final fall. Kelly unmasked
claiming he wrestled the whole match, but later was stripped due to the illegal
nature of the win. The title was placed in a tournament... Ryan Amaral won.
