Raven Appearance - We open this week's episode with Tommy Dreamer and the ECW crew (Raven, Devon, Rhino, Mick Foley and Stevie Richards) in the ring, and Tommy says in the eight weeks he's been in TNA, this is the loudest he's heard the Impact Zone, and he knows there's been a lot of buzz, and asks if we're all ready for Hardcore Justice or what? Tommy says that due to some legal issues with some certain letters, they're now going to call themselves EV 2.0. Tommy says he'd like to thank Brother Devon for rejoining the family, and Tommy wants to know what's going on with Brother Ray. Devon says he doesn't know what's going on, but he'd like to call Brother Ray out here right now to settle this once and for all. He calls "Bubba" out to the ring because they have something to talk about. Devon says they should put all their differences aside because these guys (pointing to EV 2.0) are his family, and they are the guys who have had their back since day one, and he wants to ask Ray if he's in or if he's out. Bubba turns to leave, so Tommy says seriously, he's Tommy's best friend, and this is something bigger, this is the original KISS getting back together and putting the makeup on for the fans without the political stuff. Tommy wants one last night to thank the fans, and the fans start chanting "one more time". Mick Foley takes the mic and says that make no mistake, they're going to have a hell of a show with or without him, but in Foley's opinion, the show would be just that much better with him on it. Foley says that when Bubba looks back on his career, if he chooses not to do this show, it'll be the thing he regrets more than anything, and right now he wants Bubba in the ring. Now Taz gets up and takes a house mic and tells Bubba to just do it. Bubba goes to the ring and grabs a mic and tells Devon to answer him one question: are they going to light somebody on fire? Devon nods yes as the crowd starts chanting EV 2.0, and Bubba says what the hell, he's in, and Bubba and Devon embrace and then Bubba goes around and high fives everyone.
Wait a second, here comes Hulk Hogan - The Hulkster says that they're going to ride again and thanks them for doing it in TNA, and he wishes he had known because he'd have had a few extra surprises for them, but this is real cool, man. Hogan gets the whole hardcore thing, but these guys are going to take it to another level, and Dixie said to these guys were to the 90s what Hogan was to the 80s, and Hogan agrees 110%, but he missed the whole thing because while they were tearing it up in the 90s, he had a black beard and was ruling his world, but now he's going to get a chance to see it at Hardcore Justice and nobody does it better than these guys. Since everyone's in such a giving mood, he and Eric have a special surprise for everyone and Eric's going to reveal it later, and...oh wait, here comes Abyss with Janice, and he hates to break up the extreme reunion, but he's here to tell you that they are not happy, and they are downright pissed off because this reunion was never a part of their plan and wasn't supposed to happen, and there's one person they hold responsible, and it's not Tommy Dreamer, it's not Mick Foley, and it's not any of the fans or even Hulk Hogan, the one person they hold responsible is Dixie Carter. Hogan says he could care less what they say, and as far as he's concerned, Abyss should hit the road and get his head checked because right now, Tommy Dreamer is a guest of theirs at TNA and nothing's going to go down until the PPV. Abyss says they have given him strict orders tonight to take Tommy Dreamer out, and therefore there will be no Hardcore Justice. Hogan repeats that Dreamer is their guest and he's not going to step up until he's good and ready...but wait, Dreamer says that he would love to fight Abyss tonight, so if Dixie and Hulk will allow it, he says let's do it for everybody. Looks like we have our main event for tonight!
Raven Appearance: Tommy Dreamer vs. Abyss - Dreamer is creaming Abyss with a trashcan lid when we come back from commercial, but Abyss picks him up and crotches him on the guardrail. They head back in the ring, which is full of plunder, and Abyss wedges a chair in the corner, but turns around into a trashcan, but Abyss barely registers it before picking Dreamer up and giving him a side suplex onto another trashcan. Abyss whacks him with a cookie sheet, then follows that with a shot from a Singapore Cane. Abyss with a neck vice and Dreamer fights his way out, but Abyss throttles him for a chokeslam, Dreamer fights his way out and hits a crossbody and nails him with another...metal thing. Dreamer with a big clothesline lays Abyss out for 2, but eats elbow on a charge and gets rammed into the chair in the corner. Abyss goes up top, but Tommy knocks him off and crotches him, then hangs Abyss in the Tree of Woe and nails him in the nuts with the Singapore Cane, then puts the trash can in front of Abyss and baseball slides the can into his face. Dreamer goes under the ring and grabs a barbed wire board and tosses it in the ring, then gets back in and nails Abyss with the cane again. He sets up the board and goes to pick up Abyss, but his leg gives out and Abyss clotheslines him. Abyss goes out to ringside and grabs Janice and does "YOU!" and swings Janice, but Tommy moves and rolls Abyss up for 2. He sets Janice up in the corner and whips Abyss into her, but Abyss puts on the breaks and punches a trash can into Tommy's face, then chokeslams him on the barbed wire board for the win.
Winner: Abyss
Raven's music hits and he comes running outwith a chair and he and Abyss face off, but Raven turns around and nails Tommy, then gives him the DDT on a chair and with that, we're off the air.
