In the back, Koko B. Ware was speaking with Dark Journey, trying to convince her to stay in Legends Championship Wrestling, but she said there was nothing to keep here in LCW. She kissed him on the cheek and walked away. When Ware turned around, he was blasted by a guitar and the Honky Tonk Man stood over him. Honky Tonk got in the nearly unconscious Ware's face and said, "You want to be a nice guy again, Birdman, that's fine, but you need to understand that without the Brothahood watching your back, you're back to being another stepping stone for guys like me." Honky Tonk Man then walked away as the show went to commercial.

In the back, Sean Mooney interviewed the new LCW United States Tag Team Champions The Rock 'n' Roll Express presented their newly won titles to Lady Amazon who said she was proud of "her boys." Amazon then said, "This is only the beginning of a championship dynasty for the Rock 'n' Roll Express. They were now four-time LCW United States Championship and I'm going to do everything in my power to make them two-time LCW World Tag Team Champions. It doesn't matter how big the team is, it doesn't matter how long they've been in the business, it doesn't even matter how much gold they've won before because none of that stuff means a damn thing when you step into the ring with the Rock 'n' Roll Express. And Kevin Sullivan, you sick, sadistic son of a bitch, don't you think for one minute that I've forgotten about what you did to me. But tonight is about celebration. The citizens of Lexington, Kentucky had better brace themselves for a party that's going to last all night long and then a little bit longer because when the Rock 'n' Roll Express are in town the party last all night, but when they've got gold around their waist and Lady Amazon on their arm, the party never ends!" Amazon then walked away with the Rock 'n' Roll Express.

White said, "It’s an interesting matchup. Brock Lesnar is a great wrestler, a good athlete, and this is definitely gonna be a big test for him. Frank Mir is a former world champion who is coming off a big win over Antoni Hardonk, and he’s looking to get his career back on track while Lesnar’s looking to walk into the UFC and prove what type of fighter he’s gonna be by trying to knock him off.” Okerlund asked Calaway for his prediction on the fight and Lesnar's possible future as a legend in Legends Championship Wrestling and Calaway said, "You know, I respect Lesnar as a competitor and I wish him the best at UFC 81, I'll be in attendance, but I'm a big Frank Mir fan and I'll be rooting for him. As for Lesnar in Legends Championship Wrestling…only time will tell."

Blanchard appeared on the LegendsTron with Baby Doll and said he knew Anderson was out to get him. Blanchard said it didn't really matter to him because they both knew the truth: that Blanchard was the better Horsemen because Anderson could never measure up. Blanchard said Anderson was an old man and he never understood what the Horsemen really were. Blanchard said, "And either way, Arn Anderson was always the best Anderson!" Anderson said, "Let's get one thing straight right now, Gene Anderson was the best Anderson, Ric Flair was the best Horsemen, and you were just an over-rated piece of crap in the right place at the ring time! You want to start something with me, punk? Consider it started! Tonight, you're going to face LCW Universal Champion Stone Cold Steve Austin in a non-title match! And just so you know, that wasn't my idea. I got a phone call from Jake Roberts who suggested the match. So you can thank Jake Roberts at LCW Descent next month for Stone Cold Steve Austin kicking your ass tonight!" Anderson left the broadcast booth as the show went to commercial.

From the broadcast booth, Tony Schiavone and Larry Zbyszko reviewed what happened before the commercial between the new LCW International Champion Superstar Billy Graham and Dr. Death Steve Williams. Zbyszko said, "Well, I guess since Dr. Death Steve Williams can't beat Stone Cold Steve Austin he's shifting his focus, or rather Cowboy Bill Watts is shifting his focus for him, to Superstar Billy Graham and it might not be a bad strategy." Schiavone said, "It might not be a bad strategy, indeed, Larry, but don't underestimate Dr. Death Steve Williams either. He's a former LCW Television Champion and a former LCW United States Champion, not to mention all of his other accomplishments around the world in professional wrestling." Zbyszko said, "I'm not underestimating him all. Anybody who underestimates this big man is making a big mistake. If Williams gets the match with Graham, we could be calling Superstar Billy Graham a former LCW International Champion."

In the back, Sean Mooney interviewed former LCW United States Tag Team The Sheepherders about losing the titles and then attacking their manager Rip Morgan and Mooney asked if this was a change of heart on the part of the Sheepherders. Butch Miller said Morgan was a weak link and bringing him back was a mistake, a mistake they weren't going to repeat. He said Morgan was gone and he promised that they were going to get their titles back. Luke Williams said they hadn't had a change of heart. They were simply taking out the trash. Butch said they were still going to be the nastiest, most blood thirsty tag team in LCW and they were going to get their titles back.

LCW Heritage Champion Jesse The Body Ventura defeated Sheamus O'Shaunessy in 4:13 by pinfall after the Body Breaker after The Genius Lanny Poffo, who came down to ringside during the match, accidentally, blindly tripped O'Shaunessy instead of Ventura. After the match, O'Shaunessy yelled at Poffo for costing him the match, but Poffo said it was a mistake and said that O'Shaunessy should have been more focused on being in his corner than his own agenda. Poffo said O'Shaunessy was never going to be anything without him. Poffo said O'Shaunessy needed to get his priorities straight. Poffo said, "When I win, good things happen. When you win, nobody gives a damn!" O'Shaunessy listened to Poffo and walked out of the ring with Poffo.
