Maiava, Maivia, Link vs Barend, Collins, Iaukea

The main event was a six man elimination tag team match. Johnny Barend, Ripper Collins, and Curtis Iaukea, known as "The Riot Squad," formed one team while the other side had Peter Maivia, Neff Maiava, and The Missing Link.

In a normal six man tag team bout, there are three men on each team. Each team has one man in the ring, two men standing by. But in an elimination match, when one wrestler is pinned or beaten with a submission hold, he must leave the ring and not appear again in the match.

After a series of pinned falls, Curtis Iaukea pinned The Missing Link to give his three man team, including Barend and Collins, victory over Maivia, Maiava, and The Missing Link.
