In-Ring Interview
During Jason Anderson's interview, "The Boss" wanted Will Rood to admit that he was at fault, costing him the APW Universal Heavyweight Championship. Will told Sanders he needed to blame himself for that loss. Sanders said that he took Rood under his wing, gave him a paycheck when he lost his job and could not pay his bills, and this is the thanks he gets? Rood then told Sanders that he was hoping to learn from one of the best, but all he was used for is to help Sanders cheat to win matches. Will Rood quit right on the spot, which enraged Sanders, causing him to attack Rood. Rood was able to make a comeback and drive Sanders off. As Rood was soaking in the cheers from the APW crowd, Sanders once again attacked until Jody Kristofferson made the save, running "The Boss" from ringside.
