Joey Ozbourne vs Logan Cruz:

Cruz was looking for a recovery moment after not being able to win the UCW Tag Team Championship last month. Ozbourne on the other hand was on a two-match winning streak after his last two matches over KJ Mack.

Cruz started off strong with his offense, but an attempted knife edge chop would be a setback as he injured his hand on the ring post. This would give Ozbourne an advantage and would continue to target Cruz's hand.

Cruz would not back down even with the injured hand as the man with the tongue of silver and hands of stone would hit the Right Hand of God on Ozbourne for a three-count.

*Miami Boyz (Puma Johnson and Baby Keef) vs The Annihilation (Chungus and Syther) (UCW Tag Team Championship):

The Miami Boyz were really put to the test with UCW’s newest tag team the Annihilation (Chungus and Syther). Not willing to back down from a challenge and prove that they are fighting champions, Johnson and Keef put the UCW Tag Team Championship on the line.

The Miami Boyz started off strong with quick tags, but soon they face some pushback thanks to Chungus’ power, which included a thunderous for a two count.

Things would not stop as Walker attempted to destroy McCarter on the ring post with a sledgehammer. Luckily, McCarter was able to avoid the shot and show life by hitting Walker with the already bent trash can as well as a sledgehammer shot to the back before suplexing him on the trash can. McCarter would not stop as he would dive off the top rope and put Walker through a table.

As things got back into the ring, McCarter would introduce another table into the mix, but it would backfire as Walker would launch McCarter into the table in the corner not once but twice. Walker would then try to utilize a kendo stick that McCarter brought in before the match, but a chair shot to the head would set him back for a near fall.

Walker would then turn the tables as he landed a chair shot to McCarter's head before hitting him with a kendo stick. He would not be finished with McCarter as he set up two tables and looked like he was going to dive on top, but ultimately McCarter would get the momentum he was looking for as he superplexed Walker through both tables before securing the pinfall win and retain the title.

Before the show started, former UCW champion Johnny Walker was doing the traditional run through of it until a new face made their presence known, which turned out to be Tatiana Brewer as she announced that she was named the new general manager of UCW and would oversee and take over for commissioner 'Hurricane' Heather Reigns.

Steve Sterling vs Baby Keef:

While Keef has won matches in tag team action, he enters the opening match in singles competition for the second time at UCW and was looking for his first singles win. Meanwhile, Sterling was looking to break out of a recent cold streak after losing five of his last six matches. Both men had nothing to lose as both were looking to get on the winning side of things. 

Keef would start off strong with a few moves, including a double axe handle off the top rope, but as he went to the top rope a second time, Sterling would shove the referee and knock Keef out of the ring for the advantage while targeting his back.

Keef would then make a comeback and was able to hit Sterling with a scoop slam. While Keef was in the corner, Sterling would attempt to hit a superplex, but no avail. This would give Keef the chance to hit the Air Drop, but Sterling's ring awareness proved dividends after putting his foot on the bottom rope.

Sterling would then try to bring in his tripod to hit Keef, but while Keef's teammates prevented him from using it, it would be the key distraction needed as Sterling would hit a low blow and pin Keef for the win.

Sean Scott vs Blake Banks:

Experience vs charisma played the roll between the 'Black Diamond' Sean Scott and newcomer Blake Banks. Bank, who was dubbed as the ''Trust Fund Kid', was making his debut in UCW with a chip on his shoulder.

Banks would begin by avoiding Scott's offensive by not entering the ring the first minute into the match. After being slapped to the back of the head, Scott would start the offense up with a clothesline and three knife-edge chops before hitting a back body drop, a scoop slam and a headbutt.

Scott would continue his until Banks decided to take the veteran to his limits by raking him in the eyes before hitting a standing shiranui for only a two-count. Banks would continue to keep Scott down with a neckbreaker and a grounded cobra clutch, but Scott's veteran awareness would not allow the rookie to one up him.

As Scott was going for a double underhook DDT, Banks would attempt to counter by hitting a step-up enziguri and springboard for his finisher, but Scott would shake off the kick and hit his signature Cash Out to win the match. 

Kendall Ryan vs Tim Foil:

Kendall Ryan was set to face The Gifted's Gianna Gage in a rematch from Rise and Rebuild, but Gage was unable to participate. Upset with not facing her scheduled opponent, Ryan decided to change up the scene and make it an open challenge to all.

The wrestler that would accept the open challenge would not be a woman, but none other than fan favorite Tim Foil. Foil would get a couple of rollup pin attempts to no avail before Ryan hit the Hottest Knee Strike for the win. Following the end of the match, Ryan would send one final message to the locker room on women's wrestling before hitting Foil with another knee strike.

The Gifted (Logan Cruz and Leeroy Shogun) vs The Miami Boyz (Xander Maddox and Chris Malachite) [UCW Tag Team Championship]:

The Gifted were looking to finally secure the UCW Tag Team Championship and take them off of the Miami Boyz. Even before the match started both teams, who are well liked, showed mutual respect as while following the 'Code of Honor' (an adaption to wrestling promotions in Japan and the US based promotion Ring of Honor).

As the match commenced, both teams exchanged several moves amongst one another with tag team moves and back and forth pinfalls. As Shogun was attempt a Styles Clash, Maddox would counter and put him in single leg Boston Crab and take advantage of Shogun's leg. This would prompt the Miami Boyz to show a little more of an aggressive approach to their usual team style. 

While Maddox was pushed and hit with a blind tag by Malachite, Shogun found the moment and made a hot tag to Cruz who would take the fight to Maddox while being unaware of Malachite's blind tag.

While Cruz and Shogun mounted a few more moves, it would not be enough for them as Maddox and Malachite hit the Threes Out on Cruz for the pin and retain the titles before both teams shook hands afterwards.

Billy Bob Hill vs The Bounty Hunter:

In another match of two fan favorites, both Billy Bob Hill and the Bounty Hunter came into their match with momentum, even with Hill bring humor before the match started with the fans and ring announcer Ella. 

Both men tested their strength and determination until a key clothesline proved to be a factor for the Bounty Hunter before taking over the offense by targeting Hill's head and neck area. The will of the crowd would get Hill to bounce back to where he would consume his signature moonshine and do his usual do-si-do with his opponent and the referee. Bounty Hunter would then hit a right hand and a running powerslam on Hill that would only lead to a two count.

In the end, Hill would hit the Pig Tosser before finishing Bounty Hunter off with the Appalachia Slam for the win. 

Joey Ozbourne vs KJ Mack:

Ozbourne and Mack would once again run it back in a rematch from Universal Fury 15. Mack would attack Ozbourne before the bell rang and would try to get an early start. Ozbourne would then take advantage of Mack's frustration and target his right arm. While Mack did mount a comeback and tried to hit his signature Alba Gubruth, his arm would buckle and Ozbourne would take the win with a rollup and a hand full of tights. 

The Real Drago vs Puma Johnson (UCW Universal Championship w/ Johnny Walker as guest referee):

In the finals of the UCW Universal Championship Tournament, the match was considered the battle of 'David vs Goliath' between Puma Johnson and The Real Drago. Both men have never faced each other in one on one competition. The match also came with a twist as Walker would be named the special guest referee for the match.

The match started off quick for Johnson as he utilized his speed for his advantage, but Drago would counter that with his power game. The will of the crowd would then give Johnson some momentum as he was able to show some strength with an incredible body slam to mount a comeback. In the end, despite his comeback and support from his teammates, it would ultimately not be enough as ‘The Russian Bear’ would hit his Torpedo Spear to win the match and claim the vacant UCW Universal Championship.

Crude Retires:

Following the end of The Real Drago's match with Johnson, longtime manager and wrestling promoter Bill Crude would announce his retirement from the wrestling scene after 45 years in the business.

Cam Fox vs Kai Price (UCW Intergalactic Championship):

The main event between Fox and Price was not just a match between the two former teammates, it was a personal feud. Price would start off strong against Fox not just in the ring, but outside the ring and in the audience. Fox would then seize an opportunity and take out one of Price's legs on the ring post for an advantage and would not stop.

Price would then try to mount a comeback and eventually hit the dragon suplex, but the pain in his leg would be too much for him as Fox would counter by hitting his signature swinging fisherman neckbreaker for the pin and reclaim the UCW Intergalactic Championship for a second reign... or so he thought.

Dagan McCarter vs Cam Fox (UCW Intergalactic Championship):

As Fox was celebrating his title win, he was then blindsided by an unexpected surprise as Dagan McCarter decided to cash in his championship match opportunity that he won at Universal Fury 15.
