4-MAN TOURNAMENT FOR THE RCW HEAVYWEIGHT TITLE

The first 2 matches of the night would be the first round matches in the 4-man RCW Heavyweight Title Tournament. First up Chad Cruise took on The Juggulator with Exotic E in the opening match. Juggulator dominated most of the match and looked to be a sure thing that Juggulator would be advancing but Chad Cruise surprised Juggulator with a pin out of nowhere and advance to the Finals. After the match, Cruise offered his hand in sportsmanship. Juggulator looked as if he would shake Cruise's hand but walked out of the ring instead.

In the 2nd First Round Tournament match, Judas Thorn battled "Genuine" Jock Samson with WrestleOhio's Mastermind & Sara. WrestleOhio continually interfered in the match. Judas Thorn was overpowering Samson and appeared to have the match won until WrestleOhio caused a distraction that allowed Jock Samson to use a cowbell attached to a bullrope and knock out Thorn and get the win. Samson advanced but wasn't done with Thorn. Samson attempted to hang Thorn with the bullrope, Loony came out and threatened Samson his spot in the tournament. Thorn came to and cleared the ring but Jock Samson was still advancing to the Tournament Finals later in the night.

"CAPTIVATING" COREY MASON VS JASON LEGEND
"Captivating" Corey Mason was upset that he had to face Jason Legend again after defeating him last month. Mason didn't believe that Legend was worthy to be on Full Circle IX. Mason took the fight to Legend who showed a ton of heart but Mason kept staying one step ahead. Mason appeared to have the opportunity to pin Legend but picked him up to offer more punishment. It backfired in a big way as Jason Legend ended up pinning Mason and getting the win. After the match Mason was livid.

TYSON ROGERS VS ECLIPSO
A couple of months back Rogers attacked Eclipso after a 3-way match. Shortly after that Rogers joined WrestleOhio and turned his back on the fans even more. Eclipso wanted revenge. The size difference played a huge part in this match. Eclipso showed so much heart as he continually fought back against the bigger Rogers. In the end, Rogers size and strength advantage was the factor and Tyson hit a big move for the win. WrestleOhio was now celebrating their 2nd win for the night.

4-WAY ELIMINATION MATCH FOR THE RCW NORTH AMERICAN TITLE
"American Idol" Dirk Extreme defended the RCW North American Title in a 4-way elimination match against his "Roadie" Trik Nasty, Flash Fury, and "Freebird" Bryan Cross. Everyone knew that this was Trik's last night as having to be Extreme's "ROADIE". Nasty didn't jeopardize it and he and Extreme acted as a team for most of the match. Cross and Fury had to worry about each other individually and because of that they were picked off first. First Cross was eliminated and then Fury. Trik was then about to lay down for Dirk but wanted the mic. At this time Trik kept checking on a clock that was around Simon's neck. Trik asked Dirk if they could sing a song together first. Dirk agreed. The two "sang" a Black Eyed Peas favorite until Nasty superkicked Extreme. Nasty informed everyone that his "Roadie" obligations ended at 8:30pm whereas that time had now passed. He told Dirk to get up and take his beating. Dirk grabbed Simon and escaped to the back. Nasty followed and drug Extreme back to the ring and got the win becoming the NEW RCW NORTH AMERICAN CHAMPION. Trik told Dirk that wasn't enough for all that Dirk has put him through for the last year. At RCW 100 he wanted Dirk in a STEEL CAGE MATCH! Dirk declined. Trik then took Simon and told Dirk he either accepted or he would never see Simon again. Dirk reluctantly agreed. Stipulations added were if Dirk loses he will now be Trik's "Roadie" for 6 months....if Trik loses he is Dirk's "Roadie" for the rest of his career!

GRUDGE MATCH
"BAD NEWS" KEITH HAMBLIN VS HEAVY METAL
These two former partners started brawling as soon as they entered the ring. Forget scientific wrestling as these two were there to fight. Heavy Metal was on a roll at the end and seemed to be picking up steam but WrestleOhio interfered handing Hamblin a cane that he used to pick up the cheap victory. Heavy Metal laid dazed on the mat watching his former best friend join WrestleOhio.

BUNKHOUSE RETIREMENT MATCH
"LOONY" MIKE HORTON VS EXOTIC E

At the end of the night one of these two would be gone from RCW. The Bunkhouse Match is a brutal match. In classic style these two had on work and cowboy boots, dressed in jeans with anything goes. Early on Exotic E busted Loony open. The cut was bad and Horton was literally squirting blood. The referee got knocked out. Loony had E pinned but nobody was there to make the count. E fought back and had Loony pinned but nobody was there to make the count. E picked Loony up and The Mastermind from WrestleOhio entered the ring. Mind looked as if he was going to hit Loony but instead purposely hit E with chair. Mind then put Loony on top of E for the win. Loony beat E and E would now hoave to retire but why would Mind help Loony? Mastermind stated he did so to make sure Projekt Ego would not compete against WrestleOhio in WO's quest to rule RCW. He succeeded.

DOUBLE CASKET MATCH FOR THE RCW TAGTEAM TITLES
ADRENALINE X(C) VS THE BLACK IRISH SAINTS
To win this match you had to place both members inside caskets with lids shut at the same time. Adrenaline X was now without their manager who accepted this match on their behalf with plan. That plan was now out the window. The Black Irish Saints and Adrenaline X have had many great battles but this one took the cake. DDK, Devlin Anderson, Ron Mathis, and Devon Maximus all 4 proved why they are 2 of the best tagteams in the area. Each fought hard placing members in the casket. In the end though The Black Irish Saints found it more beneficial to stuff both of Adrenaline X into 1 casket and shut the lid. The rules allowed it and The Black Irish Saints walked away 2x RCW Tagteam Champions!

TOURNAMENT FINALS FOR THE RCW HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPIONSHIP
"Genuine" Jock Samson VS Chad Cruise

These two had already faced some of the best competition earlier in the night but still had a great match. "Violent" Vance Desmond first came out to relinquish the RCW Heavyweight Title due to injury. Desmond said if had to give it up then this match had to be NO DQ to give the fans a true champion. It was made official. Desmond then literally knocked Randy Allen out of the commentary booth and provided commentary for the match. With it now being No DQ it was only a matter of time before all WrestleOhio members were involved. This was the case until Judas Thorn and Heavy Metal came to even the odds for Chad Cruise but the numbers were still with WrestleOhio. The Juggulator came out to everyone's surprise and took out The Mastermind. Cruise and Samson were now left to face each other one on one. They still battled back and forth until Cruise ended up getting the win over Samson and capturing the RCW Heavyweight Title to a ecstatic crowd. Desmond presented Cruise with the title and Juggulator shook hands with Cruise and his former partner Judas Thorn to finish up an unbelievable night.
