Detailed results: On the heels of a snowstorm the week prior that had thousands of area residents still without power at showtime, an enthusiastic and vocal crowd filled the Springfield Turnverein on Saturday night, November 5 for one of the wildest nights of action ever seen on an EWA show. Ring Announcer Tommy D opened the show by announcing that as a result of attacking two officials at the close of last show's main event, the EWA Heavyweight Champion "Golden" Sean Burke had been suspended from appearing on this show, to the delight of the crowd.
In the opening contest, I.M. Valor defeated Shane Sharpe after reversing an O'Connor roll and bridging into a pin. After the match, Valor and Sharpe shook hands and Sharpe thanked the crowd, noting that it felt great to be back in the ring after an extended absence.
In the second match, Dan Da Man pinned Shane Marvel after blinding Marvel by turning his mask sideways.
In the Doctor's Office segment, first guest Sebastian Reese, not pleased with the response he was receiving for the crowd, got into an argument with a female fan at ringside. After a few disrespectful things were said by Reese, he was pie-faced by the female fan. Reese responded by pushing the female fan, who fell back into her chair and broke it. Shane Sharpe made the save, brawling with Reese and challenging him to a match later that night.
After the smoke cleared, Heresy welcomed his second guest, the returning Marshall McNeil. McNeil apologized for his absence last show due to an emergency appendectomy, and promised victory by his Diamonds of the Ring in the main event 6-man Bunkhouse Brawl match. McNeil then said that after breaking Joey Eastman's heart and travelling with Elton Juan, he had found someone to help settle an old score with Valkyrie the Female Warrior. McNeil then brought out Mafi the Tongan Warrior, and challenged Valkyrie to face his new charge. Valkyrie accepted the challenge, but quickly fell victim to Mafi and was being brutalized when Joey Eastman began addressing the crowd from the balcony. With McNeil and Mafi distracted, Valkyrie schoolgirled the Tongan Warrior for the pin. As McNeil threw a fit after the match, Eastman goaded McNeil into an agreement that whoever's team won the main event would be allowed to choose the next show's matches between the Diamonds and Worldwide.
In a grudge match between former teammates which included Zachary Pierre Beaulieu literally waving a white flag of surrender, "Dynamite" Doug Summers was later victorious by count-out after Beaulieu retreated to the back. Beaulieu re-emerged from another door and attacked Summers from behind, but was backdropped and retreated a second time.
During a highly-energized intermission, the Mac had a dance-off with a young fan which also saw a cameo appearance by Taka Suzuki.
"The City" Sebastian Reese and Shane Sharpe had a very hard-hitting contest, which ultimately saw both men disqualified during an intense exchange when neither heeded the referee's reported warnings over closed fists. The got into it again after the bell and brawled to the back.
In the EWA Tag Team Title match, the crowd showed their appreciation throughout for a very good match between Champions the Purists and challengers Punk n' Prep United. After Punk n' Prep appeared to have the match won following a Regal Roll by Brad Hollister followed by a top rope splash by Brenick O'Brien. While referee Mike Crockett was getting Hollister out of the ring, Justin Tunis switched positions with Aaron Morrison and scored a fast pin on O'Brien. After the match, Punk N' Prep said this was the second time that they had the Purists number, and challenged them to a rematch on January 14th.
Adrian Vine defeated the Mac, escorted by Bobby Ocean, after Vine knocked the two into each other. Afterwards, Ocean vented his frustrations to the Mac for the Mac going on his own the last two shows and continually hitting Ocean. Ocean questioned whether the assertion by the Diamonds of the Ring was true that they were being courted, and if the Mac was showing his true colors and trying to impress the Diamonds.
In the main event, the 6-man Bunkhouse Brawl was one of the most action-packed and out-of-control matches in EWA History. A leather-clad Marshall McNeil led his team to the ring to 'Saturday Night's Alright for Fighting,' followed by Eastman's team entering to 'Living in America.' Tables were broken, attire was destroyed, welts were made by belts, Jonny Idol was tied to the ropes by his own tie, batteries were thrown, and much more. In the end, Dr. Heresy found himself alone in the ring with all three of his opponents, who took turns punishing the Doctor before Alex Cypher pinned him following a Death Valley Driver. Afterwards, the carnage was not done, as Eastman led his team to do further damage to Heresy, including double knees off the top by Taka Suzuki and a springboard moonsault by Chris Mooch, while Eastman held the Diamonds at bay by hitting them with the microphone. With Heresy lifeless in the ring, Eastman announced that on January 14th, his match choices would be Alex Cypher facing William King, Mikaze would get his title re-match against Burke, and Jonny Idol and Marshall McNeil would be teaming as they faced Taka Suzuki and Eastman himself. As a nearly catatonic McNeil looked on in shock, Eastman encouraged crowd members to throw their shoes into the ring, which Worldwide proceed to dump on Heresy. With the Diamonds in shambles, Eastman thanked the crowd and sent them home to the tune of 'Living in America.'
