California Heavyweight Championship
El Canek pinned Konnan El Barbaro to become the champion. Konnan appeared to have the match win over the grizzled veteran when several men in black masks came out of the apron and jumped on each corner of the apron. Blue Panther ran out to get the men away but as the referee was distracted by Canek, Panther shocked the crowd by laying out Konnan with a roll of centavos. Canek then made the cover and left with the title, Blue Panther following in tow.
