However, after the match as Street and Slim celebrated with Richs title belt, they were attacked by Rich and Jarrett. After a beatdown, Slim was unmasked to reveal..Johnny Rich..Timmys cousin.

The Royal Kiwis were our "Australian" rip-off of the Fabulous Kangaroos and the Crazy Kiwis (aka Sheepherders, Bushwackers).
The bogus belt of Timmy Rich is having a life of its own as no one has been able to get it off of him.
KISS is doing great in RCW, and winning the tag titles is the first big title change in RCW history.
Speaking of history, or herstory, we finally discovered women and had a couple of the travelling variety make a stop in RCW.
Finally, Greg Valentine is now recognized as the Canadian Heavyweight championship, having "won" it from Dino Bravo.
