	The first match of the event was between [[Matt Borske<!--(C.R. Anderson, pg. 4)-->\|Kurt Angle]] and an unannounced opponent. Before the match, Angle spoke to the audience, putting down the [[New York Knicks]], and his opponent. [[Peter<!--Russell (2007, pg. 24)--> Dalton (wrestler)\|Tazz]] then made his IWF debut as Angle's opponent. Tazz gained the early advantage, performing a [[Professional wrestling throws#Back body drop\|back body drop]], sending Angle outside the ring. Angle gained the advantage after performing a [[Suplex#Vertical suplex\|vertical suplex]] outside the ring. After performing a [[Suplex#Belly-to-belly suplex\|belly to belly suplex]], Angle climbed the turnbuckles, but Tazz hit the ropes. Angle fell onto the top turnbuckle, and Tazz performed a belly to belly suplex off the turnbuckles. Angle regained the advantage after a [[Pin (professional wrestling)#Small package\|small package]], and a [[Suplex#German suplex\|bridging German suplex]]. Tazz then countered an [[Professional wrestling throws#Olympic slam\|Olympic slam]] into a German suplex. After a [[Suplex#Exploder suplex\|T-Bone suplex]] and a [[Suplex#Head-and-arm suplex\|Head and arm suplex]], Tazz applied the [[Professional wrestling holds#Half nelson choke\|Tazzmission]]. Angle passed out and Tazz won the match, ending Angle's undefeated streak.		The first match of the event was between [[Matt Borske<!--(C.R.

-	The second match was IWF's first-ever [[Professional wrestling match types#Tables match\|Tag Team Tables match]], between the [[Hooper Boyz]] ([[Matt Hooper<!--(Facebook or 2004, pg. 75)-->\|Matt Hooper]] and [[Josh Hooper<!--(Facebook: Matt Hooper brother)-->\|Josh Hooper]) and the [[Dudley Boyz]] ([[Harlan LoMonaco<!--(McDonald's)-->\|Bubba Ray Dudley]] and [[Scott<!--Wright--> Hughes<!--(McDonald's)-->\|D-Von Dudley]]). Before the match, the Dudley Boyz set up their heel status and insulted the fans (which ironically, the Dudley Boyz are both from New York City), expressing their dislike for the booing of [[John Rocker]], the [[Atlanta Braves]] [[closer (baseball)\|closer]], which had defeated the hometown [[New York Mets]] 4–2 in [[1999 National League Championship Series\|the National League Championship Series]] two months earlier and trashed New York City and its people in what was a heated second-round playoff series. This Tables match was different in that instead of one person having to go through a table to win the match, both members from the same team had to go through a table. The Hoopr Boyz gained the advantage with a [[Professional wrestling double-team maneuvers#Double suplex\|double superplex]] to Bubba Ray, and the use of a ladder. After using the chair, Matt placed Bubba Ray on a table outside the ring. Matt then performed a [[Professional wrestling aerial techniques#Diving leg drop\|diving leg drop]] as Josh performed a [[Professional wrestling aerial techniques#Splash\|diving splash]] (known as the Event Omega) on Bubba Ray through the table. The Hardy Boyz then placed D-Von on a table outside the ring. Matt attempted a diving leg drop through the table, but D-Von avoided it. Josh then attempted a [[Professional wrestling aerial techniques#Suicide\|suicide senton]], but missed, sending himself into a table. Bubba Ray performed a [[Powerbomb#Superbomb\|superbomb]] through a table on Matt. The Dudley Boyz then beat down the Hooper Boyz, and stacked tables in the entrance way under a balcony in the seating area. Bubba Ray dragged Josh to the balcony, but Josh performed a [[Professional wrestling attacks#Low blow\|low blow]], and used a chair on Bubba Ray. Matt moved as Bubba Ray fell through the tables. Matt then placed D-Von onto a table, and Josh sent him through it with a [[Professional wrestling aerial techniques#High-angle senton bomb\|Swanton Bomb]] from the balcony for the Hooper Boyz to win the match, which ultimately turned out to be a violent and brutal affair- it featured no less than twelve total steel chair shots to the head, including four to Bubba Ray Dudley.	+	The second match was IWF's first-ever [[Professional wrestling match types#Tables match\|Tag Team Tables match]], between the [[Hooper Boyz]] ([[Matt Hooper<!--(Facebook or 2004, pg. 75)-->\|Matt Hooper]] and [[Josh Hooper<!--(Facebook: Matt Hooper brother)-->\|Josh Hooper]]) and the [[Dudley Boyz]] ([[Harlan LoMonaco<!--(McDonald's)-->\|Bubba Ray Dudley]] and [[Scott<!--Wright--> Hughes<!--(McDonald's)-->\|D-Von Dudley]]).

-	The second match was IWF's first-ever [[Professional wrestling match types#Tables match\|Tag Team Tables match]], between the [[Hooper Boyz]] ([[Matt Hooper<!--(Facebook or 2004, pg. 75)-->\|Matt Hooper]] and [[Josh Hooper<!--(Facebook: Matt Hooper brother)-->\|Josh Hooper]) and the [[Dudley Boyz]] ([[Harlan LoMonaco<!--(McDonald's)-->\|Bubba Ray Dudley]] and [[Scott<!--Wright--> Hughes<!--(McDonald's)-->\|D-Von Dudley]]). Before the match, the Dudley Boyz set up their heel status and insulted the fans (which ironically, the Dudley Boyz are both from New York City), expressing their dislike for the booing of [[John Rocker]], the [[Atlanta Braves]] [[closer (baseball)\|closer]], which had defeated the hometown [[New York Mets]] 4–2 in [[1999 National League Championship Series\|the National League Championship Series]] two months earlier and trashed New York City and its people in what was a heated second-round playoff series.
