	Barely Legal was released as part of a two-disc set with [[XCW One Night Stand (2006)\|One Night Stand 2006]] on July 11, 2006. It had previously been released in 2000 by Pioneer Entertainment as part of its "The Best of XCW" line of DVDs. The Pioneer release trimmed out many of the ring entrances, removed the music on the entrances not edited out (with the exception of songs XCW owned the rights to, including changing "[[Enter Sandman]]" from the [[Metallica]] version to [[Motörhead]]'s cover), and edited out the backstage [[Glossary of professional wrestling terms#Promo\|promos]] and part of [[Tony Martin<!--(1967, pg. 105)-->\|Shane Douglas]]'s promo in the ring. The release included with One Night Stand's DVD [[Censorship\|censored]] [[profanity\|offensive language]] (used by the performers when they would cut promos, not used for the fans' chants) and changed the majority of the entrance music to music produced by [[IWE]] to avoid licensing fees. However, the event was also released completely uncut (18 certificate) with all entrances, original music, backstage vignettes and swearing included on the UK DVD and VHS release in 2001, released through Delta Music. This was a region free DVD. Barely Legal is currently available for streaming as part of the [[IWE Network]].

-	The penultimate match was a [[Professional wrestling match types#basic elimination match types\|Three Way Dance]] between [[Michael Rodriquez<!--(1969, pg. 134)-->\|Stevie Richards]], [[Don Ferriter-Fullington<!--(1972 pg. 138)--> (wrestler)\|The Sandman]] and [[Terry <!--Ray--> Fuller <!--(1972, pg. 107)-->\|Terry Funk]]. The winner would receive an immediate championship match against [[XCW World Heavyweight Champion]] [[Scott<!--Pete (2007, pg. 24)--> Damrow (wrestler)\|Raven]]. The match began with multiple short-lived alliances between the competitors until Sandman retrieved a ladder to attack Richards and Funk. Later in the match, Funk gained control for a short time when he performed an [[Professional wrestling throws#Airplane spin\|airplane spin]] with the ladder, knocking down his opponents. The match continued with the three men exchanging attacks, in and outside of the ring, using weapons including a steel chair and a garbage can encased in [[sheet metal]]. Richards was eliminated from the match when both Funk and Sandman pinned him following a [[powerbomb]]. Sandman then introduced a string of [[barbed wire]] to the match. After Funk snatched the barbed wire and whipped Sandman's exposed back with it, Sandman regained possession and wrapped himself in the barbed wire. Richards then re-entered the ring and [[Professional wrestling attacks#superkicked\|superkicked]] Sandman which allowed Funk to perform a [[moonsault]] from the top rope and pin Sandman to win the match.	+	The penultimate match was a [[Professional wrestling match types#basic elimination match types\|Three Way Dance]] between [[Michael Rodriquez<!--(1969, pg. 134)-->\|Stevie Richards]], [[Don Ferriter-Fullington<!--(1972 pg. 138)--> (wrestler)\|The Sandman]] and [[Terry <!--Ray--> Fuller <!--(1972, pg. 107)-->\|Terry Funk]].

	Following the Three Way Dance, Raven immediately entered the ring as the bell rang to begin the XCW World Heavyweight Championship match. Raven dominated the majority of the match with the aid of chairs and tables while an XCW ringside doctor continuously checked Funk's condition due to his excessive bleeding from the head. Members of [[Raven's Nest]] eventually appeared to assist Raven which prompted [[Tyson Lesmeister<!--(2001, pg. 40)-->\|Tommy Dreamer]], who was providing guest commentary for the match, to enter the ring. Dreamer performed a [[DDT (professional wrestling)\|DDT]] on Raven which allowed Funk to pin Raven and win the XCW World Heavyweight Championship.
