TAKESHI MORISHIMA vs. STEVE CORINO (HEARTLAND)
"The very first TRADITION Championship match back in 2009 was between these two heated rivals in the finals of a tournament, Their feud helped build the foundation of TRADITION for years to come.

They stood nose to nose in a stare down for the ages, for several minutes until Morishima in a sudden burst hit Corino with a lariat that turned the King of Old School inside out! Corino got slowly to his feet only to get hit violently by a kick to the face which seemed to knock out a tooth or two as Corino began bleeding badly from the mouth.

Corino despite being knocked off his feet, had the where with all to roll out of the ring, Morishima goes out after him and a wild brawl between the two erupts into the first few rows of fans at ringside! Corino thanks to a couple of wicked chair shots to the head of his opponent got the upper hand and threw the monster from NOAH face first into the steel post!

Morishima was a bloody mess as Corino got him back in the ring and connected with his Old School kick for a NEAR fall. Corino connected with a DDT, and as he dis guarded Morishima's blood off his forearm he went for a splash in the corner but instead got caught by Morishima who then delivered his SAITO suplex slamming Corino against the turnbuckle!!

Corino crawled to the outside the ring, when Morishima climbed to the top turnbuckle and attempted to dive off with a elbow drop from the heavens!....Corino moved and Takeshi crashed down elbow and forearm first onto the concrete!!!
The Japan suplex machine, screamed in pain clutching his left arm in pain....

OFFICIALS CAME RUNNING DOWN TO CHECK ON MORISHIMA AND CORINO WHO LAID ON THE CONCRETE AS WELL. OFFICIALS TALKED TO THE REFEREE AS EMT'S CONTINUED TO CHECK ON BOTH ATHLETES. BOTH MEN DESPITE POSSIBLE MAJOR INJURIES REFUSED MEDICAL ATTENTION.

MORISHIMA SCREAMED FOR THEM TO LEAVE AS HE TOOK WRAPPING TAPE AND WRAPPED UP HIS ELBOW ON HIS OWN!!

Morishima then proceeded to hit Corino with yet ANOTHER lariat!....tossed him back in the ring for another near fall....Corino kicked out and the two slowly got to their feet and the two traded open hand strikes neither backing down. Corino eventually got the upper hand and went to the top rope, Morishima quickly followed up to the top and as they both were trying to deliver a move they slipped off the top and both went crashing down in a violent fall from the top to the concrete!!!!!

EMT'S AGAIN RUSHED TO RINGSIDE, THE REFEREE HELD UP THE X SIGN AND SCREAMED FOR MORE ASSISTANCE FROM THE BACK, THE MATCH IS STOPPED, BOTH MEN A BLOODY MESS AND MOTIONLESS FOR SEVERAL MINUTES...THEY WERE BOTH PUT ON STRETCHERS AND TAKEN TO THE BACK!

THERE IS A SILENT SHOCK THROUGHOUT THE CROWD, AS THEY STOOD SILENT AS THE TWO ATHLETES WERE STRETCHERED TO THE BACK

CHRIS HERO vs. BRIAN KENDRICK
"With the crowd still in shock over what transpired in the opening contest, and with a several minute delay in continuing the show, Chris Hero and Brian Kendrick finally made it to the ring to a great ovation.
Both men shook hands to begin the match in a great show of TRADITION

For several moments to begin the match neither could get a big offensive advantage as both showed great counter wrestling moves to thge appreciation of the fans. Hero was finally able to get an advantage after a rolling cutter, which was followed up quickly with a Cravate Buster for a near fall!

Hero continued his assault as he caught Kendrick with a nasty clothesline coming off the ropes which led to a leaping senton. Kendrick seemed to be favoring his ribs on his left side after that move but fought back regaurdless. Out of nowhere he caught Hero coming off the ropes with a huracanrana dropping Hero right on the top of his head!. Kendrick then climbed to the top rope and  hit a double foot stomp to the chest of Hero for yet another near fall!

PAUL LONDON THE TAG TEAM PARTNER OF KENDRICK CAME DOWN TO RINGSIDE AND CHEERED HIS PARTNER ON.

Hero saw London coming down to ringside and came off the ropes and delivered a suicide dive to London as both crashed to the concrete! Kendrick quickly struck with a flying dive over the top rope onto the concrete crushing Hero!
Kendrick got up and stood staring at London for a moment and tossed Hero back in the ring, he quickly followed and connected with his finisher SLICED BREAD #2!
Some how Hero was able to escape, but Kendrick quickly went for another kill shot but when he came off the ropes Hero caught him flush in the jaw with his ROLLING ELBOW SMASH knocking Brian out cold and getting the three count!

Slater recovers and hits Christina wih several forearm strikes as Evie hits a missile dropkick to both from the top rope!..she quickly covers Slater for a near fall.
Evie again goes to the top rope but this time before she can connect with a move Christina shoves her off the top rope and she thankfully crashes to the mat instead of outside on the concrete...Von Eerie then connects with a nasty knee strike on Evie for yet another near fall!

Slater went to the top and tried coming off with a knee strike to Von Eerie but instead got caught with the Graveyard Smash as CVE got the three count and pin
*AFTER THE PIN CVE WENT OVER TO THE CORNER AND DUMPED OUT SLATER'S ROO-ROIDS AND VICIOUSLY TOSSED HER OUT OF THE RING AFTER THEM*

Evie came up from behind on Christina and connected with a cartwheel clothesline which nearly got her the victory...the two traded stiff punches for a few moments when Evie again connected with a Yakuza kick BUT once again CVE escapes the pin in the amazement of her opponent...so much so Evie begins to question the referee's count..Christina goes for a knee strike but misses and again gets kicked in the head by Evie
Evie goes for her double stomp from the top rope but CVE moves out of the way and comes off the ropes with her knee strike once again which was able to get her the three count and victory!

"To this point of the night, without question the most hard hitting match of the night thought by many, as these two young stars showed that indeed they belong here on the big stage.

Busick got the upper hand early on after a big boot to the face of Nese , followed by several European uppercuts rocking Nese who stumbled out of the ring to the outside. The two brawled and Biff again got the upperhand and slammed his opponent on the concrete! Busick rolled Nese back in the ring and delivered his HALF STRANGLE HOLD! After a few moments Nese struggled but was able to reach the ropes to cause the break.

Busick looked to end the match with a falling knee strike from the top rope BUT Nese moved just in time and followed up with his Spider German suplex for a near fall. Nese came off the ropes but got caught with a decapitating clothesline by Biff which brought the crowd to its collective feet!

Biff went for the cover after a moment, but Nese somehow not only kicked out, but delivered a front kick/spinning heel kick combo which lead to a back elbow to the temple of Busick who was ouut on his feet it seemed.

TAG TEAM MATCH
THE AMERICAN WOLVES vs. BRIAN KENDRICK & PAUL LONDON (Free Agents)

"High paced from the opening bell, as Davey Richards and Paul London quickly went to the outside of the ring and brawled in the first row of fans. Edwards and Kendrick traded super-kicks to the head with Brian followed up quickly with a tornado DDT for a near fall. 
Richards got the better of London and came storming back to the ring and hit his Death Valley Driver on Kendrick, followed by Edwards with his shin breaker for another near fall.

Londonthen again came off the ropes this time with a shinning wizard to Richards which led to Kendrick with a jumping heel kick and his SLICED BREAD #2 FINISHER!

In the ring, Kendrick went to the top once again but as he came off the top Richards recovered and once again caught him in his Death Valley Driver for the three count and hard fought victory.





CALEB KONLEY
STANDS AT RINGSIDE WITH MICROPHONE IN HAND.......
"It's been a long time coming, for the first time in FLW,  Caleb Konley has a true opportunity in the sport that I love. You see all you fans I am sure have heard the stories 1000 times on how the "new" guys NEED to show respect to the athletes that have paved the road for them.

There is NO need to, only WANT to, and I choose to WANT to respect guys like RIC FLAIR, BRUNO SAMMARTINO, RICKY STEAMBOAT just to name a few out of thousands!

It's just a natural reaction to show respect to guys like that, unlike some who think they are in titled and shove it in your face every chance they get because of their own insecurities weather or not they can make it anymore!

ADAM PEARCE I have nothing but respect for what you have done in the squared circle over your career; multi time world champion along with what you do "behind" the scenes is on par with any other legend.

However I can say in full confidence that you are a ass-hole and if I ever see you again I will make sure you pay for every disrespectful thing you have ever done to the "young" talent.

You need to respect the younger talent that is revolutionizing this industry so people like you can come back and see if you still got it anymore....you want respect you got to earn it every time you step into this ring.


TRUST ME when I step in this ring, my journey to respect begins, as I enter myself in one of the two 3 way elimination matches to determine the "1 contender to the FLW UNITED STATES CHAMPIONSHIP

that is where I EARN my respect and just don't expect it!"




CHAMPIONSHIP MATCH
CHRISTINA VON EERIE vs. JESSIE MCKAY
"These two stood toe to toe in the middle of the ring face to face in a intense stare down for several minutes, until CVE delivered a vicious head butt to Jessie who very well suffered a broken nose because of it!

Von Eerie then slammed McKay hard to the mat, then quickly climbing to the top rope and wanting to come down with a picture perfect elbow drop which connected for a near fall!


Jessie was in big trouble as she continued to take tremendous punishment over the next several minutes which included a tombstone pile driver and a knee strike in the face again all for near falls!!
Jessie rooled out of the ring, where Von Eerie slammed her head first into the steel post! The official had to check on McKay who was a bloody mess but she refused to have the referee stop the match!


CVE tossed McKay back in the ring and connected with her 138 FINISHER and went for the pin but again McKay kicks out before the three count to the amazement of the crowd!!!!!
Christina was livid and went outside and grabbed a black bag from underneath the ring and came into the ring with it....the official stopped CVE from opening the bag as it laid in the ring. CVE and the official continued to argue when....

JOEY RYAN 
comes to the ring unseen by the official and CVE he switches out the black bag in the ring with one he had in his hand...he drops CVE bag back outside the ring and escapes threw the crowd before he is spotted by anyone in the ring!


CVE shoves the official who warns her, she picks up the black bag switched by Ryan unknown by her as she opens it out spills.......


GUMMY BEARS!!!!!

All over the mat...CVE is furious and confused!..she looks at the ref and asks if he did this he shrugs his shoulders and screams NO!
Von Eerie says f*ck it and grabs Jessie who recovers and plants Christina face first into the gummy bears with a Northern Lights Bomb! for a near fall!

The crowd chants HOLY SH*T as McKay rolls out of the ring grabs the black bag that Christina originally had and dumped out thumb tacks all over the ring as well..then a bloody McKay connected with her SCHOOL GIRL CRUSH finisher slamming CVE face first into the tacks for the three count and victory!


*THE CROWD ERUPTS IN CHEERS AND STREAMERS FLY INTO THE RING AS JOEY RYAN COMES BACK TO THE RING TO HUG JESSIE MCKAY WHO CAN BARELY STAND BUT WAVES TO THE CROWD AS SHE IS HELPED TO THE BACK!*

TITLE SHOT VS CAREER 2 OUT OF 3 FALLS CHALLENGE MATCH
AUSTIN ARIES vs "THE PREMIERE ATHLETE BRAND" ANTHONY NESE


FALL ONE RESULTS

"Take it for what it is worth but a handshake between the two who both had huge smiles on their faces. Aries hit fast and connected with a running dropkick in the corner snapping Nese's head back smashing the turnbuckle..he looked out on his feet. Aries continued the offense with his crucifix bomb and then dropped Nese right on his head with the Brain Buster for the quick three count for Aries to go up 1-0"

FALL TWO RESULTS
"The official was concerned that a serious neck injury had occured to Nese, but Nese refused the ref to call the match, Aries went in for the kill thanks to a Death Valley Driver but a foot on the ropes by Anthony stopped a certain three count from happening.

Aries went up to the top and attempted a frog splash but missed as Nese rolled out of the way just in time!!!


Nese hit a running knee strike followed by a back elbow, but could not capitalize as he continued to hold the back of his neck in obvious pain.
Aries came off the ropes but got caught in a running hot shot by Nese..who then screamed in pain but grabbed Aries  and connected with a dead lift German suplex dumping the TNA star right on the back of his head for the three count to tie the match at 1-1"

FALL THREE RESULTS
"Both men were slow to their feet, the referee still concerned heavily for Nese who could barely stand, but will not let the ref stop the match. Aries you could also tell was not all there as he stumbled to his feet for a moment. The two made it to the center of the ring and stared each other down and suddenly traded stiff open hand strikes for several minutes!


Aries got the slim advantage in strikes, then came off the ropes with a dropkick, dropping Nese violently outside the ring. Aries went for broke and attempted his suicide dive heat seeking missile threw the ropes, Nese moves just before the impact of the move and Aries crashes head first into the steel guard rail!!!!

Both men are out laying on the concrete, Nese again barely could get to his feet some how gets Aries into the ring goes for the cover and Aries kicks out right before the three by instinct alone!

Nese struggles to his feet and drags himself to the top rope, the official begging Nese not to do it do to his obvious neck injury...Nese screams F*CK IT!!! and delivers a 450 splash off the top rope that connects!!! he lays on top of Aries motionless as the referee counts three!!!!!!!

*AS SOON AS THE THREE COUNT COMES DOWN EMT'S RUSH TO THE RING ALONG WITH OTHER STAFF AND WRESTLERS , AFTER A FEW MOMENTS ARIES GETS TO HIS FEET AND WAVES TO THE CROWD TO SIGNAL HE IS OK....NESE HOWEVER DOES NOT GET UP AND CONTINUES TO LAY IN THE RING WITH MEDICAL CHECKING ON HIM....AS THE SHOW ENDS....

BIFF BUSICK vs. ED "THE STRANGLER" LEWIS
#THEMOVEMENT is in full effect as the BOUND BY TRADITION Tag Team Champions; DREW GULAK & KIMBER LEE second Lewis to the ring.
Busick really controlled this match from the beginning, with Lewis returning from injury you could see the rust a little bit and Biff really took advantage with some nasty European uppercuts in the corner followed by a body slam against the ring apron!

Biff continued with more uppercuts and got a near fall thanks to a decapitating clothesline that got Gulak out of his chair in concern , Lewis was just able to get his foot on the ropes right before the three count. Biff went for a risk as he climbed to the top rope and attempted a flying elbow from the top and he missed as Lewis moved just in time.

Meanwhile outside of the ring, the FOREVER HOOLIGANS made their way to the ring and went toe to toe with #THEMOVEMENT, Security came to separate the two teams before chaos erupted to the displeasure of the fans.

Lewis went right for his STRANGLEHOLD HEADLOCK Finisher on Busick who proved how tough he was fighting to get out of the hold for several moments but couldn't break the hold and passed out do to the pain eventually giving no choice to the referee but to call for the bell to end the match.

FLW UNITED STATES CHAMPIONSHIP #1 CONTENDER MATCH
SAMOA JOE vs DAVEY RICHARDS
"Richards came into his match with a taped up shoulder and ribs thanks to the attack after the bell by Ricochet and Swann earlier in the night. The match began with both of these Independent wrestling legends staring a hole in each other in the center of the ring and after a few moments both men shook hands in a great show of respect . Joe went right for Richards taped ribs with vicious kicks which lead to a quick thunderous Powe bomb cover...Richards withstood the attack and kicked out and fought right back with stiff kicks of his own.

Richards then applied very quickly a vicious arm lock for several minutes, credit Joe for not tapping. Richards then rolled threw the arm lock and connected with a Northern Lights Suplex, which in turn maybe did more damage to him then his opponent because Richards quickly grabbed his taped ribs in pain. Joe took a moment to recover and saw Davey clutching at his ribs when he connected with a running knee strike!

Followed quickly by his OLE' KICK for a near fall. Joe again connected with his power bomb but again Davey escaped the three count attempt! Joe you
could see get frustrated when he yelled F*CK IT and tore off the tape that was around the ribs of Davey.

Eddie Edwards came down to ringside in concern of his tag team partner, Joe went to the other side of the ring and dumped Richards to the concrete, Joe followed his downed opponent outside and delivered another power bomb this time on the concrete!!!!!!!

JOE IS KILLING YOU DAVEY chants began from the crowd as Joe rolled Davey who looked down and out back in the ring, looked over at Eddie and went for the cover but again Davey some how kicked out!!! Joe in astonishment threw Davey into the turnbuckle and went charging in but Davey moved and Joe went should first into the steel post! Davey tossed Joe viciously out of the ring.

Richards then slowly went to the top rope and connected with damaged ribs and shoulder a shooting star press onto Joe to the concrete outside of the ring!!!!!!
The fans were in shock, it took several moments for either of these athletes to move but Richards was able to get in the ring before the 20 count applied by the referee. Richards in obvious pain went back outside the ring and slowly rolled Joe back in the ring.

Davey then climbed to the top rope again and despite injury connected with a double stomp from the top onto Joe but only for a TWO count as some how Joe escapes the pin before the THREE!

Both men laid motionless in the ring for several moments, eventually both slowly making it to their feet when suddenly they both struck each other with open palm strikes back and fourth in the middle of the ring!. Joe would eventually get the upper hand with a vicious back elbow strike which lead him to apply his REAR NAKED CHOKE Finisher BUT before it is fully applied Richards reaches the ropes for a break!!!!!

Joe releases the hold but quickly applies his STF, Richards again inches to the ropes BUT Joe refuses to let Richards get close enough to get to the ropes after several moments Davey Richards finally passes out do to the pain and the official calls for the bell to stop the match!

Joe releases the hold after the bell as Eddie Edwards comes into the ring with a towel and bottle water for his American Wolves tag partner who was still down. Joe looks at Edwards and shakes his hand in respect. After several moments Richards slowly gets to his feet clutching at his ribs...Joe walks over to him and without hesitation hugs Richards and raises his hand in a great show of respect.

The official raises the hand of the winner SAMOA JOE making him officially the # ONE contender for the FLW UNITED STATES CHAMPIONSHIP to end the show"

"A tremendous opening sequence to this match between the Swiss Superman and the F'n machine as Claudio went for a running knee strike right off the bat but got caught by Cage who then dropped him with a exploder suplesx. Claudio with stood the blow and popped right back up and turned Cage around with a hellish European uppercut which sent Cage against the ropes but he bounced off them and connected with a STIFF discuss lariat!!!

Meanwhile Hero and Nese stood toe to toe jawing at each other trying to bait each other to make the first move, after a moment or two it was the younger Nese who attemped a European upper cut of his own BUT hero blocked it and out of nowhere hit hit Hangman's elbow dropping Nese outside to the concrete!!

Cage hit Hero from behind with his leg lariat and followed up quickly with a back breaker/neck breaker combo for a near pin, Claudio again goes after Cage and attempts his bicycle kick BUT Cage catches him again and drops him with a exploder suplex over the top rope and crashing to the concrete!

Nese recovers outside the ring and throws Claudio hard into the steel barracade, then climbs to the top rope and with Cage holding Hero, Nese comes off the top with an ax handle to the head....Cage then tries a suicide dive threw the ropes onto Castagnoli but Claudio moves out of the way and Cage goes crashing into the steel and is busted open. Nese and Hero trade stiff open hand strikes and elbows in the center of the ring.

Claudio does his Giant Swing to Cage out side of the ring ramming his head into the steel barracade 8 times full swing, you can see the bottom of the barracade being bent from the impact!!!! In the ring Nese connects with his reverse huracanrana for a NEAR fall!!

Claudio gets back in the ring and Nese meets him with a back elbow and a running knee. Claudio is down and Nese delivers a dead-lift buckle bomb!!..which led right into Cage delivering his GMSI finisher to get the victory!!"

*SUDDENLY IN THE BACK, A HUGE BRAWL BROKE OUT BETWEEN THE AMERICAN WOLVES AND INNER CITY MACHINE GUNS THAT ACTUALLY SPILLED IN THE ISLE WAY TO THE RING AND EVENTUALLY INTO THE CROWD!!! SECURITY QUICKLY CAME INTO THE PICTURE AND SEPARATED THE TWO TEAMS BEFORE ANY MAJOR INJURIES*

*AS THE BRAWL IN THE STANDS WAS BEING TAKEN CARE OF, THE LADIES OF PURO CHAMPION; JESSIE MCKAY CAME DOWN TO THE RING WITH A STEEL CHAIR. YOU COULD SEE ON HER FACE SHE WAS NOT A HAPPY CAMPER. THE CHAMPION SLOWLY GOT INTO THE RING AND PLACED THE STEEL CHAIR IN THE CENTER OF THE SQUARED CIRCLE AND SAT AND STARED AT THE ISLE WAY.

MCKAY SAT JUST STARING FOR SEVERAL MINUTES, NOT SAYING A WORD, JUST SEEMINGLY WAITING. OFFICIALS CAME DOWN TO TRY AND TALK TO HER AND MOVE HER OUT OF THE RING. NO LUCK AS SHE CONTINUED JUST TO WAIT.

WHEN SUDDENLY SHE SCREAMED FOR CHRISTINA VON EERIE WHO WITH A SMILE ON HER FACE, SHE CAME INTO THE RING WITH SOME GUMMY BEARS IN HER HAND AND THREW THEM IN THE FACE OF THE CHAMP..WHO DID NOT MOVE OR SAY ANYTHING....CVE SLAPPED HER IN THE FACE, STILL NO RESPONSE FROM THE CHAMPION.

CHRISTINA THEN WITHOUT WARNING SHOVED MCKAY OUT OF THE CHAIR AND LOOKED TO THE FANS FOR APPROVAL. MCKAY SLOWLY GOT BACK TO HER FEET FOLDED THE STEEL CHAIR AND TURNED VON EERIE AROUND AND DELIVERED THE LOUDEST CHAIR SHOT ANY OF US HAD EVER HEARD IN THE SPORT SQUARE TO THE HEAD OF VON EERIE!!!

CHRISTINA WENT DOWN IN A HEAP, BLOOD POURING OUT OF HER FOREHEAD!, THE CHAMPION THEN TOOK A HAND FULL OF THE GUMMY BEARS AND DROPPED THEM IN CVE POOL OF BLOOD AND SMIRKED AND WALKED TO THE BACK...OFFICIALS HELPED CVE TO THE BACK AFTER SEVERAL MINUTES CHECKING ON HER IN THE RING*

DREW GULAK w/ KIMBER LEE vs. ALEX KOSLOV
"Hard hitting affair, these two rivals went right after it, neither backing down a inch. It was Gulak who got the early upper hand thanks to a nasty kick to the shin of his Russian opponent. The tag team champion then went for a chicken wing submission BUT Koslov out of no where hit his Soviet Strike for a NEAR fall. Koslov looked down at Lee at ringside and smirked. Koslov continued the offense with a running double stomp. Koslov went to the top and looked to come down on Gulak with a picture perfect elbow drop BUT.....

Gulak met him up on the top rope and the two went crashing down threw the ringside table onto the concrete!!!..both men were down the offiicials checking on both men..Lee helped her tag team champion partner to get back in the ring...Koslov just recovered and got back in before the 20 count...Gulak again tried to apply a submission manuever with a ankle lock however again Koslov got the best of him and escaped and hit the Russian Strike for another NEAR fall!

Koslov was getting very frustrated and he went over to Lee who tried to distract him, and kicked her right in the face!...Gulak came from behind and dropped Koslov on the back of the head with a German suplex! which led to another ankle lock submission...Koslov was close to the ropes and as he reached out...Lee pulled the bottom rope back far enough to were Koslov could no longer get it!

Koslov got pulled back to the center by Gulak it seemed like only a matter of time when Koslov has to tap...BUT Koslov reverses out of the hold and pushes Gulak into the ropes and out of nowhere connects again with the Russian Strike for the three count to the stunned crowd!"

TRIPLE THREAT SUBMISSION MATCH
ED "STRANGLER" LEWIS vs. ROCKY ROMERO vs. BIFF BUSICK

"Tremendous match, as Lewis and Romero went right after one another, Romero really had control of Lewis throughout the match not sure if Lewis is fully recovered from his prior injuries, Busick showed how tough he was just going after both of his opponent with tremendous fury.

FIRST ELIMINATION:
As stated earlier Strangler Lewis just could not get any offense going and really seemed out of sorts as Romero took down the legend with ease and eventually got the hooker to tap out thanks to a nasty top rope cross breaker arm bar to eventually make his rival tap out.

*AFTER THE ELIMINATION THE TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS; GULAK & LEE CAME RUSHING DOWN TO THE RING TO HELP LEWIS TO THE BACK, AND BOY WAS ROMERO TRASH TALKING THEM BOTH*

SECOND ELIMINATION
Busick took full advantage of the trash talking as he hit Romero as he was flapping his gums with a Flying European uppercut knocking his opponent from Cuba out cold..Busick quickly applied his figure four head scissors!!! looking for the tap out by Romero in the center of the ring!

Romero however was able to crawl and scratch to finally make it to the ropes to break the hold...Biff came off the ropes and connected with a decapitating clothesline turning Romero inside out! Wich led to his half strangle hold! Some how Romero rolled out of the hold and caught Biff with a nasty jumping knee strike to the head !

Followed up quickly with repeated lariats in the corner right into the Diablo Arm bar....Busick held on as long as anyone has without breaking the hold but eventually had to tap out to give the victory to Romero!"

FLW UNITED STATES CHAMPIONSHIP MATCH
(C) MARK STERLING (SCW) vs. SAMOA JOE
"A stare down between the two from across the ring and BEFORE the official could ring the bell to begin the match, Joe delivered a running boot square in the face of the Champion Sterling who did not see it coming! The official quickly admonished Joe and told him to back off, Sterling slowly got to his feet but was clearly not 100%

The official talked with Sterling who on several occasions while leaning against the ropes...Sterling screamed to begin the match, and told Joe to bring it...a wicked smile crept on Joe's face and despite hesitation the official the bell rang to begin the match!

Joe began with a thunderous clothesline and stomps to the head of the champion...he whipped Sterling into the turnbuckle and came charging in but Sterling moved and the Samoan submission machine went crashing shoulder first into the steel post. Sterling then got Joe up and dropped him with a shoulder breaker!

Sterling then took a moment to collect his thoughts as some of the fans began to cheer for him he slowly climbed to the top rope despite not being all there, he came off the top with a splash but Joe got the knees up and Sterling was in a world of hurt!!

Joe quickly capitalized and hit his MUSCLE-BUSTER Finisher but somehow Sterling kicked out to the amazement of not only Joe but the crowd! Joe quickly got back on the offense and once again hit the MUSCLE BUSTER Finisher for a second time and got the 3 count as the FLW has a NEW United States Champion in SAMOA JOE

*JOE CELEBRATED IN THE RING AS HE TOLD OFFICIALS TO GET STERLING OUT OF THE RING! CONFETTI FLEW DOWN FROM THE RAFTERS BUT SOME OF THE CROWD YOU COULD HEAR BOO JOE AS HE CONTINUED TO CELEBRATE AS THE SHOW ENDS.*
