The Infernos trap Dixon in their corner early in the match. Each time a different Inferno or Dykes tags in, they taunt Andre or Maynard. They come in and Atletico puts them out. This allows the heels to punish Dixon. A standing drop kick to the chin of Dykes allows Dixon to tag in Maynard. Maynard and Andre double team Dykes while Andre keeps The Infernos at bay. The Infernos do have some success against Maynard but the crowd erupts when Andre is tagged in. Andre gives Inferno I a series of head butts and goes in for the pin. Maynard has Dykes in a standing hammerlock while Dixon has Inferno II in a chicken. Both men are on the turf. From the other side of the ring, comes a huge man in a mask. He is being led to the ring by a man some of the ringsiders say is Rock Hunter. Atletico is caught by a foot as Dykes tries to struggle.
