Notes:
– The Eight Man Tag Team Match all titles were at stake. The champion who is pinned loses his title. Since AHTU got the pin he and a partner of his choosing get to be the new champions.

– Mike Tartaglia thought he won the battle royal, but Jessie Kaye came to the ring and eliminated Mike Tartaglia. Thus Jessie Kaye gets a title match of their choice.

– After winning the Super 8, Dragon retired from pro wrestling leaving his boots in center ring

– Big Vito (Vito Lo Grasso) of ECW Baldies and WWE, WCW came to the ring to congratulate Dragon. Vito helped train Dragon. Also, all the other Super 8 participants came to the ring to congratulate Dragon along with his friends Kekoa and friend and former FUSION DS partner Matt Saigon. Dragon’s wife Veronica and children also came to the ring to celebrate.

– This was one of the most emotionally charged ECWA crowds in history! Dragon had lots of family and friends in attendance. Dragon and Wylde, two of the most popular wrestlers in ECWA had the crowd wild with chants of “Let’s go Dragon” and “Let’s Go Wylde!”

– Dragon finished his career with what he has called his greatest opponent and greatest rivalry, “Greek God” Papadon!

– WWE Hall of Famer and legendary manager of the Four Horseman JJ Dillon was also visiting.
