Inside, D hits Cove with a huge sidewalk slam and a Blitz Kick. He then goes up top and connects with a picture perfect moonsault for the 3.

That concludes tonight's pre-show dark matches. I always recommend watching the episode first on TV or online before reading the rest of the report. Again, you can check it out on WBNA-21 in the Louisville area Saturdays at 11AM and 9PM (check local listings) and on OVW's official website Mondays at OVW TV.

Justin Smooth comes out and wants a shot at the masked man, but Gilbert Corsey says Dean Hill is out on assignment scouting tag teams to face Kings Ransom. Smooth is confused and says that if Dean is not here, he is next on the list to be in charge. He will get the masked man tonight and unveil who he is, he will give Gilbert a raise and it will be a smooth OVW tonight!

Kings Ransom controls early, then Ted challenges them to a "drink-off" with Grandma's rocket fuel. They all take a drink and Shiloh Jonze & DL3 show up. They want in and drink. Then Amon shows up and says if anyone knows about "spirits", it's him. He pours the drink out and then it becomes an 8-man tag as Ted gets mad.
