- Murdoch ends Nick Aldis title reign
Despite a pre-match brawl that included Aldis dropping Murdoch on the stage a couple times, Murdoch recovered once the match finally got started.
Murdoch put the final touches on the win with a Harley Race like piledriver and a top rope maneuver to earn the pinfall.
The post-match ceremonies included being greeted in the ring by his family as well as "Nature Boy" Ric Flair.
A new era looks to begin for the National Wrestling Alliance with Murdoch at the top of the ladder but who will be his next challenger and will Aldis be seeking a rematch.
- Flair promo
Ric Flair returned to his roots with the National Wrestling Alliance cutting his first promo since who knows when.
Flair used the time he was given to thank tons of people in the WWE including Vince McMahon, Triple H, Shawn Michaels, Stone Cold Steve Austin, and Undertaker.
He was also quoted saying that he wishes for Randy Orton to break his record of 16 championship reigns.
Flair also used the time to talk about his NWA history with the likes of Harley Race and Terry Funk.
- Close Calls
There were two championship matches with close calls of changing hands.
James Storm challenged NWA National Champion Chris Adonis (f.k.a. Chris Masters) breaking away from the master lock not once but twice.
Adonis then proceeded to get an easy pin on Storm by putting his feet on the ropes.
Chelsea Green challenged NWA Women's Champion Kamille and was able to have some offensive maneuvers until she tapped out to a crossing submission.
- James-Purrazzo feud
A feud between Mickie James and Impact women's knockouts champion Deonna Purrazzo has sure caught a spark after James match with Kylie Rae.
Purrazzo came out hidden as a masked lady attacking James and eventually revealed herself to the live St. Louis crowd.
The feud started when James and Purrazzo would have multiple encounters with James booking championship matches with Thunder Rosa and Melina.
