Grave Digger vs. American Guardian
From the get go, Anderson was full on the gas. Dennis threw Grave Digger 19 from one end of the arena to the other time and time again on the ragged edge. "Radical" Rick Raab wasn't going slow though, it was just that Dennis was going so fast. With that Anderson was able to take the win in Grave Digger.
