Vice also appeared with a new look and new attitude, even receiving support from the crowd after an emotional interview on Slam. He was then challenged by Thunder to a match on the February 11 episode. Thunder defeated Vice after Janie Vice turned on her brother and struck him with a chair. It was later said she did so because she was unappreciative of Danny's new attitude. Danny would beat Thunder at February's PPV, Till Death Do Us Part. The following Slam, he forced Thunder back into the ring in a match between Team NCW & Thunder/Striker to help Skyler Striker. He then pinned Conrad Howell in a triple threat match that also included Bobby Cairo to put him on a winning streak headed towards War. At War, Danny would finish fifth after drawing #1 for his entrance number. He lasted the second longest in a match that would be won by Striker. At Blast! in April, Vice allowed Thunder to pin Skyler Striker for the Hardcore title after Striker was injured during the match. Vice did so to end the match faster so EMT's could help Striker.

It is the first singles title Vice has held in his near 9 months of the WCF.

On the first Slam following Payback, Vice called out old rival Skyler Striker who had recently won the WCF World Championship for unfinished business the next week. People figured it would be for a title shot, but the next week Vice extended his hand and aligned with Striker. At Timebomb, he lost in a triple threat match with Johnny Craven and Creeping Death. Although Craven won the title, CD stole it after the match and put Vice through a glass table. Mike Ragnal also joined Striker and Vice at this event after Striker saved him from an assault by Bobby Cairo. Danny Vice would later challenge Cairo for the Television Title, but lose by DQ when an enraged Skyler Striker interfered in the match. Vice would lose the next week in a triple threat Hardcore Title match at Explosion, but come to the aid of Skyler Striker in the main event to show that Index Three stands unified and strong. Vice would continue with multiple tag victories as a part of Index Three, then defeated Johnny Craven in a Tokyo Street Fight at XIII by leaping off a building to hit a monstrous Halo. The victory made him the #1 contender for the World and Hardcore Titles, yet the WCF closed before his match.

On November 19, he defends his title against Striker at PWA Clash of the Champions in the main event dubbed "The Final Chapter". He defeated Striker in a brutal match to retain his World Championship. The federation slowly closed in December of 2006.
