PRESTORY: A junior showcase Survival match. There was an originally a different plan for the team of Kazarian/MCMG/Pillman but something within the negotiations fell through and Brian Pillman (who was originally scheduled to team with Jushin Liger later on) stepped up to be apart of the team. Their opposition would feature the debut of FPR newcomer, Julian Caesaro and the top three contenders to Liger's junior championship in Ultimo Dragon, Amazing Red, and Austin Aries!

Julian Caesaro looked very impressive in his debut match. Aries tried to win it all for his team in the end but Kazarian took him down for the victory. A very good match that showcased some of the top contenders in the junior division.

PRESTORY: The upcoming match was sort of an open challenge, made by team captain Shinobu Kandori. Kandori formed a team in order to make a statement and prove to the world that she is still very much around in FPR despite her loss to Gina Carano at Cyber Saturday. Kandori chose to bring back Bull Nakano (who was injured by Gina Carano in the Queen's Cup) and Beth Phoenix to build her team. And lastly Alektra Blue came out and said she would like nothing more than to join the team. With Alektra Blue and three of the strongest females on the roster alongside her, they were a force to be reckoned with for sure. Their opponents that stepped up for the challenge consisted of Kelly Kelly leading three debuting women in Eve Torres, Brie Bella, and Nikki Bella. A clash of styles indeed that would certainly make for an entertaining match!
Survival Match: Brute Force (Shinobu Kandori, Bull Nakano, Beth Phoenix & Alektra Blue) def. The Divas (Kelly Kelly, Eve Torres, & The Bella Twins) (53:29)

Survivors: Shinobu Kandori, Bull Nakano, Beth Phoenix, Alektra Blue
AFTERSTORY: It ended up a clean sweep with sheer dominance displayed by Bull Nakano most especially. One thing very notable was the grit and determination of Eve Torres. Eve took big move after big move from Bull but continued to kick out until she was eventually forced into submission. A lot of things are for sure after this one. Bull Nakano is BACK. Shinobu Kandori is still very alive with a lot to offer. Eve Torres definitely made a name for herself on this night despite being on the losing side. The winning team managed to have their entire team survive and they celebrated accordingly. As they stood tall with Alektra talking trash to the final fallen foes.

PRESTORY: Back in July at the Summer Spectacular tag team tournament, The Great Muta and Great Kabuki defeated Arn Anderson and Tully Blanchard in a match that caused arguments and problems between Anderson and Blanchard. A rematch a month later at Final Burns witnessed the same result. The heat between Anderson and Blanchard only escalated as they could not get on the terms to tag up again for awhile. At Halloween Havoc, the other half of the Four Horsemen, Rick Rude and Michael Kostka tagged up against Muta and Kabuki but were still unable to defeat them. For Survival of the Sickest, Muta and Kabuki assembled a team which would feature the first time that The Great Muta and Vampiro would team up together in some form in three years since it was not a traditional tag team match. Tully stated prior to the match that if the Horsemen didn't come out victorious, he wasn't sure if the Horsemen would continue to exist..
Survival Match: The Dark Carnival (Great Muta, Great Kabuki, Vampiro, & Kiyoshi) def. The Four Horsemen (Tully Blanchard, Arn Anderson, Rick Rude, & Michael Kostka (43:35)

Survivors: Great Kabuki, Vampiro, Kiyoshi
AFTERSTORY: The Dark Carnival pulled it off! As Tully Blanchard was the first man eliminated from his team, he went up the ramp and watched the duration of the match from the stage. As The Horsemen went on to lose, Tully threw his hands up and walked to the back. The Dark Carnival in its fullest form was a success. The Horsemen on the other hand has its future in question.

PRESTORY: In the FPR Queen's Cup, Jessica James had put up a great fight against Awesome Kong but was unable to attain victory. Kong would go onto the finals where she lost to eventual winner, Gina Carano. At Halloween Havoc, Jessica James gained a huge victory against Aja Kong. Aja was irate and aligned with Awesome to assemble a team for Survival of the Sickest. Their team was formed as the Kongtourage with Sojourner Bolt and Jazz joining them. It would be the debut of Sojo and a return of sorts for the former multiple time womens champion, Jazz. Jessica formed her team with former mult-time champion, Tiger Dream along with Athena and Sarita.
Survival Match: The Kongtourage (Aja Kong, Awesome Kong, Sojo Bolt, & Jazz) def. Team Jessica (Jessica James, Tiger Dream, Sarita, & Athena) (33:03)
*Aja eliminated Sarita (18:05) via CRITICAL
*Awesome eliminated Tiger (27:16)
*Awesome eliminated Jessica (29:02)
*Awesome eliminated Athena (33:03) after the Uraken Fist
Survivors: Aja Kong, Awesome Kong, Sojo Bolt, Jazz
AFTERSTORY: Much like the previous womens' match, it was a dominant display by the Kongtourage. Aja knocked out Sarita early on while Awesome eliminated the rest of the opposition. It was however a good effort put up by Team Jessica. Another great match that showed the strength of FPR's women's division. This feud won't end here though as Jessica James is relentless in proving herself as one of the top women in the promotion.

PRESTORY: Brock Lesnar shocked the world at Cyber Saturday when he defeated Bob Sapp to become Octagon Champion, ending Sapp's 3 year reign as champion. Lesnar has been reluctant on giving Sapp a title rematch as he isn't willing to see Sapp hold the title for that long again. Lesnar wanted Sapp to earn his rematch and he did just that defeating Lesnar in a non-title fight at Halloween Havoc. Lesnar challenged Sapp to an 8 man elimination tag match for Survival of the Sickest with both men assembling teams of four. Lesnar promised that if Sapp's team got the win, he would get a title rematch at Eve of Destruction. Lesnar's team was fairly easy to come together as his partner and friend, Aaron Eagle was on his side as well as Ken Shamrock, who was on Brock's team last year as well. Lesnar's last choice took him some time to choose but he went with Fedor Emelianenko who he figured would be a strong support on his team. Sapp, on the other hand, has ruled the Octagon for three years and didn't make many friends along the way. One friend he did make though was Kurt Angle. Sapp was Angle's hired gun last year at SOTS and this year, Sapp asked Angle to help him assemble his team. Gary Goodridge was the only member to step up and choose to be on Sapp's team. Angle stayed true to his word and hooked up Sapp with Giant Silva and Aleksandr Karelin to finish out his team.
Survival Match: The Beasts (Bob Sapp, Gary Goodridge, Giant Silva, & Aleksandr Karelin) def. Team Lesnar (Brock Lesnar, Aaron Eagle, Ken Shamrock & Fedor Emelianenko (25:53)

*Goodridge eliminated Lesnar (19:20) via CRITICAL
*Fedor eliminated Goodridge (21:24) via submission
*Karelin eliminated Fedor (25:00) via submission
*Karelin eliminated Eagle (25:53) via CRITICAL
Survivors: Bob Sapp, Giant Silva, Aleksandr Karelin
AFTERSTORY: Team Sapp got the victory. There were lots of knockouts and lots of submissions along the way and it didn't last long, as one would expect. Fedor was the only member of Team Lesnar to get an elimination over Gary Goodridge but the rest was all Team Sapp. With the victory, Bob Sapp will challenge Lesnar for the Octagon Championship once again at FPR Eve of Destruction in December.

[b] PRESTORY: Last month at Cyber Saturday, Mick Foley defeated Raven to become FPR Hardcore Deathmatch championship. A victory that has seemingly revitalized Mick Foley. Foley kicked off Halloween Havoc saying that he was going to make it his night, his show, and issued a non-title challenge to FPR Worlds Heavyweight Champion, Hulk Hogan to take him on in a steel cage match. As Halloween Havoc got started, Raven became the victor in the Chamber of Horrors to crown a number one contender for the Hardcore Deathmatch championship, thus ensuring his rematch with Foley. Meanwhile, Foley would go on to defeat Hogan in the main event. A victory that cannot be forgotten despite what took place following the match with the unexpected assault by Orton and Sid. Raven, being the reigning #1 contender to Foley's title, made sure to make the challenge for them to step in the ring in an elimination match for Survival of the Sickest. Foley agreed and both men assembled their teams. Raven already had his team assembled in The Flock while Foley would choose his partners carefully. Foley's team consisted of Abyss, Matt Morgan, and Abdulah the Butcher. In a pre-match promo, Foley named his team "Mick's Maniacs", perhaps a direct message, another mind game, to get under the skin of Hulk Hogan. Foley was sure to mention that he should be the number one contender after pinning Hogan in the ring. Raven's agenda was to weaken Foley for their title match that will take place at Eve of Destruction.
Survival Match: Mick's Maniacs (Mick Foley, Abyss, Matt Morgan, & Abdullah the Butcher) def. Raven's Flock (Raven, Kevin Sullivan, Mike Awesome, & Daniels) (48:29)

*Abyss eliminated Daniels (48:29) with Shock Treatment
Survivors: Mick Foley, Abyss, Matt Morgan
AFTERSTORY: Mick Foley's run of success continued here as his team went on to victory. Mike Awesome was able to eliminate Abdullah, but what followed that was more or less a 25 minute beatdown on Awesome done by the remaining members of Mick's Maniacs.

PRESTORY: Jushin Liger formed a team for Survival of the Sickest and challenged any contenders to team up against his team. Liger joined forces with popular duo, Andy Dalton and The Brian Kendrick, and brought along El Samurai to replace the previously-chosen Brian Pillman. The opponents lined up as the man who received the most votes in the junior battle royal at Cyber Saturday, Rey Mysterio as well as the man who faced Liger at that same show, Evan Bourne. They teamed up with JT Lamotta and former junior champion, Matt Palmer in what was sure to be an exciting bout!
Survival Match: CTU (Jushin Liger, Andy Dalton, The Brian Kendrick, & El Samurai) def. Rey Mysterio, Evan Bourne, Matt Palmer, & JT Lamotta (35:12)

*Samurai eliminated Palmer (33:59) with a victory roll
*Samurai eliminated Lamotta (35:12) with a magistral
Survivors: Jushin Liger, Andy Dalton, The Brian Kendrick, El Samurai
AFTERSTORY: Liger's team destroyed the opponent as Liger goes on as the dominant junior champion without much competition at the moment. El Samurai was clearly a wise last minute choice by Liger. Liger awaits his next opponent eagerly, while Samurai feels proud of his work here and Dalton & Kendrick look on to the future where the Guerrero Cup 09 begins soon!

PRESTORY: Bison Smith has been feuding with Sting and Lex Luger since the second half of the summer and the history their is well-known. At Cyber Saturday, the fans voted in Sting to face Bison Smith. Bison defeated Sting which enraged Ric Flair who came in 2nd place in the voting. Flair vowed to defeat Bison which he would go on to do at Halloween Havoc. Flair joined up with Sting and Lex Luger and recruited Barry Windham for their team to face Bison at Survival of the Sickest. Bison assembled a deadly team of himsefl, Akitoshi Saito, Takeshi Morishima, and Vader.
Survival Match: Ric Flair, Sting, Lex Luger, & Barry Windham def. Bison Smith, Akitoshi Saito, Vader & Takeshi Morishima (30:20)

*Sting eliminated Vader (21:38) after a running bulldog
*Sting eliminated Bison (26:33) via submission
*Sting eliminated Saito (29:57) via submission
*Sting eliminated Morishima (30:20) with a running big splash
Survivors: Ric Flair, Sting, Lex Luger, Barry Windham
AFTERSTORY: Shockingly enough, they pulled it off! And Sting got all the eliminations himself! Definitely redeeming his losses to Bison as Sting took charge like never before. Aside from Vader looking dominant early on, Bison's team never gained much of an advantage here. Sting was very satisfied with their victory as was his teammates. Flair is riding high after now two victories over Smith. While Windham suffered a potential injury early on, he seemed to be alright by the match's end.

PRESTORY: In the Fulfill your Fantasy battle royal at Cyber Saturday, there was an impressive showing among Angelina Love and Maryse as well as others such as Gail Kim and Trish Stratus. Maryse and Angelina have been boasting for awhile and at Halloween Havoc a tag match was signed in which Maryse and Love defeated Trish and Gail. This, of course, only led to further bragging from the duo. Trish demanded they face at Survival of the Sickest in an elimination match. Trish and Gail found backup in Lita and Victoria. While Angelina and Maryse recruited Angelina's close friends Velvet Sky and the debuting Madison Rayne.
Survival Match: Stratusfaction (Trish Stratus, Gail Kim, Lita, & Victoria) def. The Beautiful People (Angelina Love, Maryse, Velvet Sky, & Madison Rayne) (30:59) [

*Gail eliminated Velvet (29:50) with a hurricarana
*Gail eliminated Madison (30:59) with a hurricarana
Survivors: Trish Stratus, Gail Kim, Lita, Victoria
AFTERSTORY: Trish's challenge was definitely worth it for her and her team! They finally put the Beautiful People down for the count and eliminated the entire team without losing one member of their own. Madison Rayne did have an impressive debut being the final member of the Beautiful People to be eliminated. After the match, The Beautiful People tried to regroup on the outside after their defeat while Team Stratusfaction celebrated in the ring. As they began to exit the ring, however, Lacey Von Erich slid in from behind and grabbed Gail Kim before she could get out and delivered a claw slam! Lacey bailed as Trish, Lita, and Victoria turned around to realize what took place and returned to the ring. Lacey aligned with the Beautiful People and helped them to the back as she stared down those in the ring, who tended to the fallen Gail.

PRESTORY: Kurt Angle and Yoshinari Ogawa have been embroiled in a bitter rivalry since July when Ogawa defeated Angle to win the Road 2 GAB. Ogawa went on to become Worlds Heavyweight Champion while Angle longed for a rematch, which he got as soon as Ogawa dropped the belt. Ogawa beat Angle again which prompted a rematch at Cyber Saturday. The fans voted the match be a submissions match and that is what it became. Angle got the decisive and rather quick victory in that match that played much to his strengths. Last time around at Halloween Havoc, Angle teamed up with Kevin Nash to defeat Ogawa and the Great Khali, techincally making them at 2-2 in matches. Angle and Ogawa agreed to captain teams for Survival of the Sickest to further their rivalry..

*Punk eliminated Danielson (27:03) with a german suplex
*Angle eliminated Punk (42:06) after the Angle Slam
Survivors: Kurt Angle, Kevin Nash, Scott Steiner
AFTERSTORY: Angle certainly led his team to victory here as he made sure it was him that secured the final pinfall. Angle walked away from this match with his head held high as he felt he was now 3-2 over Ogawa and broke the even score they had before. Ogawa still lays claim to the fact that Angle has not beaten him in a 1 on 1 singles match with no stipulations. But, Kurt seems not to care as he feels victorious and pleased.

PRESTORY: Chris Jericho defeated Jakob Furis in a bloody brawl at Cyber Saturday, after which Jericho claimed he would go on to become number one in FPR. Jericho challenged Stone Cold Steve Austin who had just come off a loss to World Champion, Hulk Hogan, to a match at Halloween Havoc. They met in the ring and Austin scored a quick victory. Jericho immediately claimed he wasn't fully prepared as he was only a week removed from his barbed-wire match with Furis. Though it was Jericho that made the challenge. Jericho said he would take the month to heal up and assemble a team to take on Stone Cold again. Jericho brought together Dolph Ziggler and Jack Swagger and found a mysterious masked final partner in Spoiler 2000, who would make his debut. Austin filled his team with competitive rivals, The Rock and Shawn Michaels and of course Jericho's bitter rival, Jakob Furis.

Survivors: Stone Cold Steve Austin, The Rock, Jakob Furis, Shawn Michaels
AFTERSTORY: Jericho came in confident but Austin eliminated Jack Swagger for the match's first elimination. Jericho tried to show up Austin by targetting Shawn Michaels back and looking to take him out. This seem to light a fire inside of Austin who proceeded to go Stone Cold crazy and eliminate Jericho and his team one after the other. Jericho retreated to the back with his team, stunned in disbelief at what just took place in the short amount of time that it did. Austin celebrated in the ring with his team.

PRESTORY: At Cyber Saturday, you, the fans, voted Edge and Christian to get a tag team title shot against the Briscoes. They got the shot and went on to win the tag team titles! The Briscoes proceeded to bounce back as they have done all year long and won the championships back the following week at Halloween Havoc. The rivalry led to Survival of the Sickest where the two teams would go at in an elimination match. Edge and Christian joined up with the Briscoes' longtime rivals, LAX while The Briscoes did the same - and teamed up with the Hardyz!
Survival Match: Edge, Christian, Homicide, & Hernandez def. Jay Briscoe, Mark Briscoe, Jeff Hardy, & Matt Hardy (42:40)
*Hernandez eliminated Jeff (25:10) via submission
*Hernandez eliminated Jay (30:23) via submission
*Hernandez eliminated Mark (35:06) via submission
*Hernandez eliminated Matt (42:40) via submission
Survivors: Edge, Christian, Homicide, Hernandez
AFTERSTORY: What a showing by Hernandez! Hernandez eliminated The Briscoes and the Hardyz making a definitive statement for himself and his team. The match definitely was sort of a preview for the upcoming Guerrero Cup V which takes place in the coming weeks as it will involve all the top tag teams in FPR. Edge and Christian certainly want a rematch but it will be the winners of the Guerrero Cup that receive the next shot at The Briscoes come Eve of Destruction.

PRESTORY: The history of the Foundation vs the Faithful is well-documented so there's no need to explain the whole rivalry again. The feud has been going on for over a year now and it was in fact a year ago this PPV, that the two factions met in the main event of Survival of the Sickest 2008. The Faithful won the match then and the feud continued on to this year's Great American Bash, where the Faithful were once again victorious inside of War Games, where they took out the Undertaker with a fireball to the face. The feud didn't end there though as at Cyber Saturday the fans voted one member of each side to face one on one. That match ended up being King Umaga defeating Samoa Joe. A week later at Halloween Havoc, the Faithful gained even more momentum when Mike Foxx defeated Bret Hart and Umaga defeated Kane. However, following the Umaga/Kane match, the lights went out and the gong was heard symbolizing that the return of the Undertaker was imminent. Undertaker would return for Survival of the Sickest to rejoin the Foundation in their battle against the Faithful one more time.
Survival Match: The Foundation (Bret Hart, Samoa Joe, Kane, & The Undertaker) def. The Faithful (Mike Foxx, King Umaga, Big Show, & Hardcore Holly) (44:23)

*Bret eliminated Holly (43:42) after a piledriver
*Show eliminated Bret (43:59) via submission
*Kane eliminated Show (44:23) after the chokeslam
Survivors: Kane & The Undertaker
AFTERSTORY: The Foundation finally did it! They defeated The Faithful, 4 on 4! It was competitive, a hard fought battle, and very much back and forth but in the end the Foundation was victorious. The Undertaker made his triumphant return to help them succeed as he and his brother, Kane were the last men standing. Joe managed to eliminate Foxx first, shockingly enough and then Umaga took out Joe. Bret Hart got a very satisfying elimination when he locked his longtime rival, Umaga, in the sharpshooter. It was a huge win for the Foundation as they look to put a definitive end to the feud atleast temporarily.

PRESTORY: Last month at Halloween Havoc, "Best in the World" Candice Michelle successfully defended her championship against #1 contender, Mickie James. Following the match, Candice showed respect to Mickie and offered a handshake, Mickie accepted however proceeded to lay out Candice. Mickie's attack left the champion on the mat as Mickie raised the title belt. Mickie would later make the challenge for two teams to face at Survival of the Sickest. Candice told FPR Management, she had no idea why Mickie did what she did but she would teach her a lesson at Survival of the Sickest. Mickie formed her team, first selecting Candice's long time rival, the Angel of Mercy and former champion, Claudia. Mickie would then choose Katie Lea and the debuting Alissa Flash to complete her team. Candice made her choices as well in the weeks leading up to the event as she chose her close friend, Wendi Richter as well as another close personal friend of hers that she would bringing into FPR, Maria Menounos! Candice had promised then that she would complete her team in a big way and that she did! Candice got the Queen of FPR, Gina Carano, to join her on her team! The match was one of the most highly anticipated of the show and also its semi main event!
Survival Match: Team Mickie (Mickie James, Claudia, Alissa Flash, & Katie Lea) def. The Best in the World (Candice Michelle, Maria Menounos, Wendi Richter, & Gina Carano) (41:52)
*Carano eliminated Katie (10:57) via CRITICAL
*Mickie eliminated Wendi (29:45) via submission
*Candice eliminated Mickie (34:03) via submission
*Claudia eliminated Candice (34:49) via submission
*Claudia eliminated Menounos (41:21) via submission
*Claudia eliminated Carano (41:52) via submission
Survivors: Claudia & Alissa Flash
AFTERSTORY: Mickie's team managed to pull off the absolutely huge victory here with two members remaining the survivors. Carano got things off to a hot start knocking out Katie Lea. But Mickie answered forcing Wendi Richter to submit. Candice managed to eliminate her rival, Mickie, as she promised to do but the Angel of Mercy struck and Claudia, along with Alissa Flash, proved to be a successful combination and eliminated the rest of Team Candice. Alissa and Claudia did prove to be quite the formidable duo. A very strong debut showing for both Menounos and Flash. Claudia eliminating Candice proved for sure that their rivalry will be one that will always linger. Claudia got a very big boost of momentum when she in the end eliminated Gina Carano - the very first fall Carano has taken since debuting in FPR. Though it did look as though Carano was in the ropes, apparently it wasn't viewed that way. There will be discussion about who will receive the next shot at Candice for Eve of Destruction.

PRESTORY: Following the conclusion of the Hogan/Foley cage match, Randy Orton and Sid hit the ring and attacked. They attacked Foley but their primary focus was on FPR Worlds Heavyweight Champion, Hulk Hogan. Back in August when Hogan won the belt, Randy Orton immediately cashed in his money in the bank title shot but Hogan was able to overcome the odds and defeat him. The following month, Hogan defeated and unmasked Colossus which turned out to be Sid. Orton and Sid assaulted Hogan in the cage and Ted DiBiase followed behind them into the ring. Ted shouted at Hogan that at Survival of the Sickest, he would face his Million Dollar Team which consisted of himself, Orton, Sid and a partner to be named. That partner ended up being chosen by Ted as his own son, Ted DiBiase Jr. Orton and Sid were reluctant at first but the Million Dollar Man assured them that this was the right choice. A pre-match promo here finally revealed Hogan's team..well most of Hogan's team. Hogan stood in the back alongside "Macho Man" Randy Savage and The Ultimate Warrior. Hogan would go on to let it be known that his planned fourth partner was discovered by the Million Dollar Team and was attacked and put out of action. Hogan said they were going to continue 4 on 3 because the powers of Hulkamania, Macho Madness, and the Ultimate Warrior would not be stopped. Hulk put his championship over his shoulder and led his team out of the promo area and down the hall leading to the entrance way. But he stopped as he came across Mick Foley. Foley walked up to Hogan and told him he heard that he needed a fourth partner. Foley said he would join Hulk's team but he would owe him one. Hulk didn't want to agree but felt he didn't have much choice.
Survival Match: The Million Dollar Team (Randy Orton, Sid, Ted DiBiase, & Ted DiBiase Jr.) def. The Hulkamaniacs (Hulk Hogan, Randy Savage, Ultimate Warrior, & Mick Foley (35:28)
*Orton eliminated Foley (14:34) via CRITICAL
*DiBiase eliminated Warrior (29:17) via submission
*Hogan eliminated DiBiase (30:16) via CRITICAL
*Hogan eliminated Orton (33:09) via submission
*DiBiase Jr. eliminated Hogan (34:10) after a knee crusher
*DiBiase Jr. eliminated Savage (35:28) after Dreamstreet
Survivors: Sid & Ted DiBiase Jr.
AFTERSTORY: The Million Dollar Team are the victors and the man that scored the last two eliminations was the man least expected to do so, the debuting Ted DiBiase Jr.! Foley may have been reckless coming in after already wrestling earlier and was dropped early by Orton with an unexpected RKO. The Million Dollar Man scored a elimination for his team forcing the Warrior to submit to the Million Dollar Dream. Hogan had seen enough by that point and Hulked up big time and eliminated Ted and Orton. DiBiase Jr. was then on the attack as he and Sid were the survivors from their team. DiBiase Jr did indeed score a pinfall victory, albeit in an elimination eight man tag, over the FPR Worlds Heavyweight Champion in his very first match. The claim to the contendership is a vast one as Foley along with virtually all the members of the Million Dollar Team feel the right. Though no one has had an update on Foley's condition after taking a vicious RKO. But at the end of the night, The Million Dollar Team stood tall!

Comments, questions, requests, concerns and feedback of all sorts appreciated as always! FPR's next PPV event will be Eve of Destruction 2009. The 5th annual Guerrero Cup tag team tournament will take place over the course of the month. Stay tuned to FPR!
