The fourth bout was a four way dance between Axl Rotten, D-Von Dudley, John Kronus, and Tracy Smothers. Kronus was the first competitor eliminated when he was pinned by Dudley, then Dudley was eliminated when Rotten pinned him following a Nutcracker Suite. Rotten went on to win the bout by pinning Smothers after hitting him with the Italian flag and then powerbombing him.
The fifth bout was a singles match between Justin Credible and Chris Chetti. Credible defeated Chetti by pinfall after giving him That's Incredible.
Following the fifth bout, Credible's manager Jason issued an open challenge for any wrestler to face him in a street fight. The challenge was accepted by the Blue Meanie, who defeated Jason by pinfall using a schoolboy.
In the penultimate bout, ECW World Heavyweight Champion Bam Bam Bigelow defeated Shane Douglas by pinfall to retain his title.
The main event was a tag team match pitting Taz and Tommy Dreamer against Rob Van Dam and Sabu. During the match, Taz left the ring to brawl with the Pitbulls in the audience, leaving Dreamer alone. Dreamer went on to win the match by pinning Van Dam following a DDT. Following the match, Sabu and Van Dam attacked Dreamer until the Sandman - who had been absent since being burned with a fireball by Sabu at As Good as It Gets in September 1997 - made his return and beat them down.
