December 14, 1996
A crowd between 150 and 200 came out to support O.M.E.G.A this evening, the show was supposed to start at 7pm, but as per usual of a wrestling indy, the show didn't actually kick off until almost 8pm. Promoter Thomas Simpson came out and thanked everyone for coming out to support the show and hoped everyone would enjoy themselves. He says the legendary Junkyard Dog will be signing autographs and taking Polaroids for a slight fee at Intermission! Simpson does have some upsetting news as Lance Diamond and Johnny Paradise have not shown up for their match and will be replaced by The Astros.
Unadvertised opening match as Sexton Hardcastle makes his first appearance in OMEGA to face the green and inexperience Rasche Brown, though Sexton himself has only been wrestling for a few short years, he has had quite a bit more experience. Sexton pins Brown after a Spear.
1/2 of The Serial Thrillas, "The Show" Shane Helms goes one on one with young latin superstar "Fantastico" Julio Sanchez!! The Thrillas are the main young rivals to the OMEGA Tag Team Champions The Hardy Boyz. Sanchez high fives the fans on the way to the ring and back flips into the ring off the top rope. Helms and Fantastico put on a nice little match with a couple of little screw ups, Helms gets caught dancing on the top rope and Julio uses a Super Frankenstiener. But Helms kicks out, Helms wins the match with an elbow drop off the top rope.
David Morton and Mike Gibson, the Hard Rock Express expected to face Lance Diamond and Johnny Paradise here tonight, but Diamond and Paradise no showed, so instead they face a high flying masked team. Both teams break out several high flying death defying moves to wow the crowd and make up for the no show. Astro #1 misses a moonsault from the top rope and Morton hits one to get the three count and the win for his team.
W/
Daryl Van Horne comes down to the ring and introduces the newest member of the Dark Brotherhood, "The Fallen Angel" Christopher Daniels. Daniels and Storm put on a good show with some great high spots until Daniels puts Storm down for the three count with the Angel's Wings.
Young and Venum, known as Bad Attitude face the young team of Joey Matthews and Chris Harris. Harris and Matthews are short on experience and struggle in the match up, Young and Venum win the battle after Young hits Matthews with a Spinebuster. Young gets a microphone and challenges The Hard Rock Express to come out and face them. Gibson and Morton come out to take them up on the challenge!!!!
The Hard Rock Express and Bad Attitude brawl all over the ringside area before the match is thrown out by the referee. The two teams don't stop brawling, they fight into the crowd, using chairs and anything else they can get their hands on. Security has to get the wrestlers to stop fighting.
INTERMISSION
During intermission Junkyard Dog gets inside the ring and takes Polaroids for 5 dollars a pop with the fans. He also signs autographs for 2 dollars.

Chris Hamrick battles Steve "EZ Money" Starfire in our popcorn match. Both guys are making their first appearance in O.M.E.G.A. they pull out all the stops throwing caution to the wind and soaring all over the ring. Hamrick wins after a top rope splash.
w/The other 1/2 of the Serial Thrillaz "Big Daddy" Mike Maverick faces "Downtown" D'lo Brown, Maverick doesn't come down to the ring alone though as he brings "The Show" Shane Helms with him. D'lo and Maverick trade holds but Helms keeps interfering, so
The Junkyard Dog leaves his gimmick table and heads to ringside!!!! Helms backs up as JYD stalks him!!!! D'lo then pins Maverick with a powerbomb!!!! Helms jumps in the ring and attacks D'lo. but JYD isn't far behind!! JYD knocks Helms around, then Maverick around, then slams their heads together. Dog then hits his signature headbutts to get a cheer from the crowd, D'lo got to do it too. The Thrillas ran out of the ring, D'lo and JYD then took turns barking in the ring.
w/The OMEGA Tag Team Titles are up for grabs as the Hardys, who only won the title a little over a month ago, put them up against two members of Daryl Van Horne's Dark Brotherhood, "The Black Baron" Otto Schwartz and "The Country Crippler" Cham Pain ! Pain and Schwartz beat the dog snot outta the Hardy Boyz, they tossed 'em around like rag dolls with Jeff bleeding early. The Country Crippler tried to live up to his nickname with the Confederate Crossface on the bleeding Jeff, but it didn't work. The Hardyz fought back and Jeff pinned Pain with a swanton bomb! Matt helped his brother to the back while the Dark Brotherhood pitched a fit in the ring.
w/Riggs comes to the ring wearing a Vest that looks like the US Flag,"The Boss" Tracy Smothers comes to the ring with Daryl Van Horne who is still mad Schwartz and Pain didn't take the tag titles. Smothers does some mic work before the match, insulting the crowd. Smothers and Riggs worked an old school southern match, lots of brawling, some basic wrasslin, Riggs comes out on top with a german suplex and bridge that Smothers almost kicked out of. Smothers went crazy after the match attacking Riggs, soon Daniels, Schwartz and Pain came running down to the ring to help in the beat down, Riggs was getting his ass beat when The Hardy Boyz and "Downtown" D'lo Brown ran out to make the save. The Brotherhood was in the aisle when a bloody Riggs got up and asked for the mic.
Riggs: "YO! Brotherhood!! I took your best shot!! The Hardyz they took your best shot, and we are still standing, we still got our belts!! But you guys wanna keep fighting? You want us? Well there are four of you, and with our buddy "Downtown" D'lo there are four of us, so Christmas Night, Concord High School, HOW ABOUT A FOUR ON FOUR ELIMINATION MATCH?! AND WE'LL GIVE THE FANS A REAL CHRISTMAS PRESENT WHEN THEY GET TO SEE US KICK YOUR BUTTS ALL OVER CONCORD, HARRISBURG AND THEN RIGHT BACK HERE TO CHARLOTTE!!!!!"
The Brotherhood shake their heads in agreement!!! It's set Christmas Night at the Concord High School Gym!!!
As fans left they were handed hand bills advertising the show at the Concord High School Gym on Christmas Night, no matches were listed but all the wrestlers seen tonight were listed, with the exception of Junkyard Dog, instead the legend who will be with fans signing autographs and taking Polaroids will be THE RUSSIAN BEAR IVAN KOLOFF!!
Working on it now.
