The fourth bout was a singles match between Rhino and Super Crazy. The match was won by Super Crazy, who pinned Rhino by reversing a powerbomb into a hurricanrana.^[2]^[6]

The fifth bout was a three way dance between Chris Chetti and Nova, the Full Blooded Italians, and Simon Diamond and Tony DeVito. The match was won by Chetti and Nova.^[2]

Raven returned to ECW at the Last Show at the Madhouse.

Following the fifth bout, the Dudley Boyz came to the ring and gave a promo in which they stated they were leaving ECW before issuing a challenge to ECW World Tag Team Champions Balls Mahoney and Spike Dudley. The Dudley Boyz went on to defeat Dudley and Mahoney to win the titles, pinning Dudley following a 3D. The Dudley Boyz then left the ring to a standing ovation, with commentator Joey Styles speculating that they would take the titles to the World Wrestling Federation and throw them away on an episode of Raw.^[2]^[4]^[8]

The seventh bout saw ECW World Television Champion Rob Van Dam defend his title against Jerry Lynn. The match ended in a no contest when the Impact Players interfered, attacking both men.^[2]^[6]

Following the seventh bout, new ECW World Tag Team Champions the Dudley Boyz came to the ring and gave another promo in which they derided ECW and claimed they would hand the titles to WWF chairman Vince McMahon. The Dudley Boyz then called out Tommy Dreamer, insulting him, ECW, and his valets Beulah McGillicutty and Francine. This resulted in an impromptu match pitting Dreamer against the Dudley Boyz. As the Dudley Boyz attempted to give Dreamer a 3D, he reversed the move into a DDT onto D-Von Dudley. As he did, his old nemesis Raven - who had been absent from ECW since losing a loser leaves town match to Dreamer in June 1997 - entered the ring and DDT'd Buh Buh Ray Dudley. Dreamer and Raven then simultaneously pinned both of the Dudley Boyz to become the new ECW World Tag Team Champions. Following the bout, a confused and dazed Dreamer was handed one of the title belts by Raven. Raven left through the crowd and the show ended with Dreamer not knowing what to make of what had just happened.^[2]^[4]^[8]
