Sami Callihan vs “Filthy” Tom Lawler (Chicago Street Fight)
Both men begin the fight at ringside as Tom Lawlor wears Sami Callihan out with the Kendo Stick, beating him senseless. Callihan hits Lawlor with the trash can, then dumps garbage on Lawlor as he attempted to jump the railing to go after Callihan. Callihan taunts the crowd. Sami shoves the steel rail into Lawlor.

Both men make their way back toward the ring.
Multiple kicks by Lawlor on Callihan. Sami retaliates with an eye gouge. Steel chair shot by Lawlor. He positions two chairs across from each other, then wraps a chair around the arm of Callihan. He slams a chair into the back of Callihan. He now positions four chairs (2x2), climbs to the apron and attempts a Powerbomb or Piledriver off the apron, by Sami counters, digging the eyes into Lawlor. He connects with a Piledriver on the ring apron. Looked very stiff!
Sami bashes the chair across the back of Lawlor. Sami drags out a table from underneath the ring. Sami tries for a Powerbomb on the arena floor gets countered into the ankle lock by Lawlor. Sami fights out of the hold.
Tom Lawlor grabs a sign from a fan at ringside and bashes the sign over the head of Callihan. Callihan hits a Knife Edge Chop on Lawlor then rips his shirt off, hitting him with another chop. Callihan places Lawlor against the table, which is propped up against the steel railing. He charges at Lawlor as Lawlor’s catches him with a Superman Punch, but Sami counters scoops up Lawlor and drives him down with a thunderous Death Valley Driver through the table!
Sami goes under the ring and pulls out a VHS tape and a railroad spike. He proceeds to ram the spike through the teeth of Lawlor, as Lawlor begins to bleed from his mouth. He then uses the sign on Lawlor and uses it to further damage the mouth of Lawlor. Both men enter the ring for the first time throughout this fight. Callihan destroys the VHS tape on the post, then takes the tape out of the cassette and proceeds to wrap the tape around the neck of Lawlor, choking Lawlor out.

Lawlor attempts a Powerbomb or Piledriver but gets countered into a Low Blow by Callihan. Callihan connects with a Spike Piledriver and gets a near fall.
Callihan exits the ring and pulls out his trademark baseball bat and brings it back inside the ring with him. Lawlor strikes Callihan with a Low Blow of his own before Callihan could strike him with the baseball bat. Both men exchange blows. Tom Lawlor hits with a Chokeslam off the counter from a Bicycle Kick from Sami Callihan.
Lawlor grabs the baseball bat and snaps the bat in half over his knee. He then applies the Rear Naked Chokehold on Sami Callihan, but Callihan counters and drives Lawlor into the table out of sheer desperation. Lawlor fights back and applies another Rear Naked Chokehold, as Lawlor wraps a piece of the bat around the neck of Callihan. The “Death Machine” has no choice at this point but to tap out.
