Booker T's Harlem Heat theme begins to play, and he is first to the ring. He waits for his friend and fellow Misfit stablemate, Terry Funk to come out. Funk comes out to a rousing introduction, fresh of a Hardcore Title win with the assistance of Kaye. As he gets in the ring, he holds up the EAW Hardcore Title, then hands it to the referee. The counter in the lower-right corner of the screen is at 60:00. The bell rings, and the meter is running...
Funk starts things off with a series of jabs to Booker, then whips him into the ropes, catching him on the way back with a backbody drop. Booker springs back up and sidekicks Funk. Funk slams a knee into Booker's midsection, then grabs him by the head and tosses him out of the ring. As Booker gets back up, Funk springs over with a cross body. Picking up the challenger, Funk slams Booker's head into the railing, then begins to drag his face across the rails before putting him down with a stiff elbow on the top of the head. Booker gets back up and armdrags Funk over, and counters a stiff righthand with an armbar takedown. He then grabs Funk's head and slams it into the steel before rolling him back into the ring. Booker climbs onto the apron, then springboard dropkicks Funk. He slides out and grabs a tables from under the ring, and sets it up beside the apron. Getting back in, he drags funk over to the side of the ring with the table, and tries to Suplex him outside onto it...Funk reverses, and Booker slips free and lands behind Funk, and tries to roll him up...one count only. Booker tries to set Funk up for a superplex...Funk blocks it...and dumps Booker FACE FIRST!! Funk rolls out of the run and grabs a chair from under the ring and gets back up. Booker rises and is caught with a chair shot from Funk. Funk then begins to work over the knee of Booker by slamming the chair into his patella. Funk grabs the chair and rears back for a swing. Booker gets back up, and catches Funk with a Harlem Sidekick before Funk can strike him.
(50 minutes left)
Booker then drags Funk to the apron, and sets him up for the Book End...BOOK END THROUGH THE TABLE!! Booker covers Funk ONE...TWO....THREE!!!
(49:23 left--Booker:1 Funk:0)
Surprisingly, Funk is the first to stir, and begins to roll away from the scene, reaching under the ring...fishing through carefully...and pulling out another chair and a lighter. This chair with oily rags bound around the back of it! Funk walks over to where Booker is, and with a few flicks of the Bic, Booker tries to get out of their quick...but as he gets up Funk slams the front end of the chair into Booker's midsection. Booker doubles over, and Funk brings it down across his back, once...twice...thrice...four times! Funk throws up some of the padding, and drags Booker over to the bare floor, and executes a knee stomp onto the flaming chair..then another...working over Booker's knee yet again. He drags Booker to his feet and sets him up for a piledriver, but is backdropped over. Booker grabs the flaming chair and swings it to Funk, who ducks..then begins the Texas Jab combo...but as he winds up for a final looping right, Booker catches it and executes an arm screw whip.

Booker goes around the corner and throws up the apron banner, and removes a fire extinguisher...Funk has recovered and has the chair. As he rounds the corner, Booker T sprays Funk with the fire extinguisher, putting out the flaming chair, and temporarily blinding Funk. Funk charges....AND CATCHES BOOKER!! He takes down Booker and lets loose a series of right hands. Funk then gets of, and climbs onto the apron...Asai Moonsaults Booker....goes for the pin...one...two..kick out!!
Grabbing Booker by the head, Funk rolls him back in, then follows him, the fire extinguisher in hand.
(30:00 left)
Booker spins to his feet only to be bunted with the fire extinguisher. After taking a few more shots at Booker's knee, Funk tosses the fire extinguisher to to the side and locks on the spinning toe hold. The referee gets in close....Booker taps!!
(26:47 left Booker T:1 Terry Funk:1)
The score tied at a victory a piece, Funk rolls outside and gets his trashcan full of weapons, and throws in back into the ring. First selecting a golfclub, he takes a swing at the rising Booker T, but ducks it, and dropkicks Funk. Booker gets back up and grabs a 2x4 from the trash can. He ties up Funk in the ropes, and busts the 2x4 over Funk's head...and Funk is juicing! Booker grabs Funk's legs, and catapaults Funk over and face first onto the trashcan lying across the ring! Funk begins to recover, and grabs a steel poker from the trashcan, and clocks Booker with it! He then jams it into Booker knee, then begins to grind the tip of it into Booker's forehead...deepening the cuts from before. Funk then lays the trashcan across Booker's back, and goes up top for a Moonsault, and connects!! He's unable to capitalize, however, as Booker lays face down in the ring. Booker rolls outside, splats on the mat...and attempts to catch his breath. He crawls up onto the apron...and with a new burst of energy, springs up onto the top turnbuckle, and Missile dropkicks Funk as Funk begins to get up!

Booker slides to the outside...grabs a Ladder from underneath the ring...and throws it inside onto Funk! Then he takes out a table, and sets that up outside. Taking another table, he slides that onto the apron. With some degree of effort, he sets up the second table onto the first. Then throws Funk onto the second table. Then Booker sets up the ladder....it's apparent just what he is trying to do. Booker perches at the top of the ladder...HARLEM HANGOVER!!! FUNK THROUGH TWO TABLES!! Booker rolls onto Funk...the ref counts the fall...one...two...three! The referee takes a look at the competitors...then rings the bell again.
(13:36 left Booker T:2 Funk:1)
The referee has declared that neither Booker T or Terry Funk can continue...and Booker T is the new Hardcore Champion!!
"Iron Man" begins to play, and MECHIUS comes out and walks down to ringside...picks up Booker T...rolls him in the ring...GAME OVER!!! Then goes out and grabs Funk...SHUTDOWN!! Mechius then leaves the ring...and goes to the back.
