Major Segment – The Returned

Chris Champion and Shawn Michaels are in the ring. They call out everyone involved in the Room 312 situation.

Deven Draemur, Dexter Lumis, Indi Hartwell, Nick Beef, Darkside, Eros, Ashley Barnes, and Haley James all end up in or around the ring. The Sisters of Sin watch from the stage.

David Schultz’s investigation is referenced again.

Nick Beef’s true identity begins to come into focus — it is heavily implied he is connected by blood to Devon Morgan.

Draemur becomes increasingly unstable as Lumis and Indi refuse to fully back him. Darkside and Eros stand with Ashley.

A chaotic confrontation breaks out. Draemur attacks Lumis. Nick Beef finally chooses a side and shoves Draemur. Darkside and Eros get involved.
Officials and other wrestlers flood the ring to break it up.

Chris Champion gets back on the mic and says the entire situation will be settled at the Super Show next week in a major match that will affect the future of several people in CSW.

Byron Saxton: “This whole thing is about to blow wide open.”
Big E: “Next week is going to be huge for The Returned.”

After a hard-hitting match, Jack Havok hits a devastating lariat for the pinfall victory.

Post-match, they stand tall over DarkState, clearly being pushed as a top destructive force in CSW.

Main Event –
Central States Heritage Championship
Den Scarraman (c) vs. Josh Briggs

Physical, hard-hitting title match. Josh Briggs uses his size and power to put Scarraman in real trouble. Scarraman fights from underneath with veteran toughness and eventually retains the championship with his finishing sequence.

Winner and still Central States Heritage Champion: Den Scarraman

Immediately after the match, as Scarraman is celebrating, Channing “Stacks” Lorenzo runs in and brutally attacks him. Stacks focuses on Scarraman’s head, driving him into the mat and the ring post.

Stacks then pulls a foreign object and busts Den Scarraman open. Blood is visible as Stacks continues the assault until officials and other wrestlers pull him away.
Stacks gets on the mic over the chaos and screams that next week at the Super Show, he’s taking the title from a broken old man.

Vic Joseph: “Stacks Lorenzo just made a huge statement!”

Byron Saxton: “Den Scarraman is busted open… and now he has to face Stacks at the Super Show.”

Big E: “That was vicious.”
