It looks like Harbinger was the loser of the P1 Pinnacle series with AOM, Endgame and Monolith all earning title shots. That was pretty wild to see a three-way tie for the first time ever in the P1. Credit Harbinger for thus far getting past Monolith but both AOM and Endgame are going to be tough to beat in consecutive title matches. It will be interesting to see how it plays out. Harbinger has proven that he is more than capable of beating anyone... But, can he make it past Overmaster and Endgame for a second time? And if he does, it raises a serious question - Who has what it takes to end the reign of this seemingly unstoppable force? Always great to have you checking in, my friend... Many thanks for staying tuned!

The P1 Series and P1 Fallout were great Pariah ! I definitely didn't see that P1 finish coming. When I was reading the final round and I got towards the bottom of the post, it didn't seem like the other ones. (You can start to tell who it's boiling down to, but with that round it seemed hard to tell who was winning lol). But Euritar's decision to let the three way tie stand and then: 1. Grant each of The Big Three title shots and aiming all of them at Harbinger. 2. Perhaps planting a subliminal seed in each of their minds encouraging an of all of us against all of Black Death (through defeating Harbinger). Was a masterstroke. And may prove to be either a "check" or even a "checkmate" in so far as Euritar vs Black Death goes on this chessboard of yours. I also dug how Alpha Female relinquished the title. This has been a hell of a year already! Although he is doing his best to remain impartial, it does seem that Commissioner Euritar is wearing his heart on his sleeve... And I think you make a great point - Even if the Big 3 fail to capture the title from Harbinger, the commissioner is promoting the sentiments of The Guardian while using a cleverly indirect approach... That being said, this method might only work if there's some kind of reward at stake... What happens if Endgame or Overmaster manage to beat Harbinger? Suddenly, the commissioner is left with no incentive to offer... Truly appreciate your excellent feedback, my friend... Many thanks!

Jungle Warriors (Malkuth & Panther Warrior) defeated Master Race (Thraxx & Zygon) via count-out. -- Tokens: Malkuth 2, Panther 4 - Thraxx 6, Zygon 2 - Even though his team won, Abroz was furious with the outcome and accused Dialectas of manipulating the match to force a tie in the overall scoring. Dialectas remained calm while explaining that a tiebreaker would be held on the final event of the year. It would consist of a four-on-four, one fall to a finish tag match with each side consisting of one male singles wrestler, one female and one tag team. Infinity Challenge Scoring: AniMen of Andromeda 4 (Abroz 10) - Frontal Assault 4 (Dialectis 10)

Ensor pinned Paganax with an ERUPTION OF THARSIS. -- Tokens: Ensor 4 - Paganax 5 - Black 3 - Patch 5 - Black narrowly avoided an explosive double team by Paganax and Patch by sliding out to the floor. Throwing caution to the wind, Ensor executed a spectacular high risk move that took out both remaining opponents.
Gladiators of Aethra (Rush & Turmoil w/ The Leveler) defeated Gamemasters (Star Warrior & Thantos) via pinfall. Turmoil pinned Thantos with a CHAOS IN THE CROWD. -- Tokens: Rush 2, Turmoil 7 - Warrior 3, Thantos 4
GWF Interplanetary Title Match Paralyze (w/ The Leveler) defeated Hector via pinfall with a PERMANENTLY PARALYZED. -- Tokens: Paralyze 1 - After putting Hector away with relative ease, Paralyze called out Alpha Female to finish what they began on the last show. Alpha Female stormed the ring and a wild brawl erupted! Security pulled them apart and Commissioner Euritar confirmed that Ensor is currently the number one contender for this title. Paralyze retained the GWF Interplanetary Championship for a successful version six title defense.
TITAN DEATH Balaal defeated Swarm via pinfall with a BITE OF THE SERPENT. -- Tokens: Balaal 4 - Swarm 1 - The arrival of Mantis drastically altered the course of this ferocious exchange. Refusing to strike his own son, Swarm was helpless to prevent the double team assault that took place.
GWF Universal Tag Team Title Match BD Cage Rage (Anivar & Cage Death Betrayer) defeated Ultimate Fighters (Clinch & Shoot) via submission. The Betrayer gained submission over Shoot with a NO ESCAPE. -- Tokens: Anivar 4, Betrayer 2 - Shoot 3 - Anivar and Betrayer trapped Shoot in the corner with a vicious double team and when Clinch attempted to come to the rescue, the ref cut him off.

GWF Universal Heavyweight Title Match Aethran Overmaster (w/ The Leveler) defeated Harbinger (w/ The Dark Menace) via disqualification. -- Tokens: Overmaster 2 - Harbinger 3 - Harbinger avoided a crippling blow by intentionally shoving the ref into harm's way. Before he could exit the ring, Harbinger was jumped by Nosfera, who was eager to cash in his Sure Shot opportunity. Without warning, Monolith stormed the ring and took out everyone within reach! The Menace urged Harbinger to make a strategic retreat while Monolith vented his frustration by pounding Nosfera. Harbinger retained the GWF Universal Heavyweight Championship on a technical decision.

That wasn't a cheap win, Harbinger played it smart to avoid Aethran Overmaster's blow. Then escape while Monolith cleaned house with the attacker Nosfera.
This was a good night for Black Death.

Harbinger is very clever to bow out and retain his coveted heavyweight title belt, I'm sure AOM is seething for retribution and get some Harbinger blood on his hands after that stunt he pulled lol. Great card Pariah as you always do man!

Well if Harbinger's goign to go cheap, he may keep that belt forever. It would have been funny to see how things would have played out because Harbinger would have reclaimed the advantage IF he had not been DQ'd... I did not even bother rolling for TDM to try a distraction as I figure the champ would be alright with a technical decision... Endgame gets his shot next and then I think we'll see Nosfera cash in his Sure Shot for a scheduled title match. That wasn't a cheap win, Harbinger played it smart to avoid Aethran Overmaster's blow. Then escape while Monolith cleaned house with the attacker Nosfera. This was a good night for Black Death. Cheap or not (and I think this argument could go either way), the bottom line remains - Harbinger is still the GWF Universal Heavyweight Champion... As you stated, it was a very good night for Black Death... With one exception - my Vampire brother failed to win that Fatal Four that would have made him the number one contender for the IP belt... Ugh! Harbinger is very clever to bow out and retain his coveted heavyweight title belt, I'm sure AOM is seething for retribution and get some Harbinger blood on his hands after that stunt he pulled lol. Great card Pariah as you always do man! Clever indeed... And unless they win either the upcoming Battle of Ground Zero OR the Alpha King Rumble, there is no way Overmaster or Monolith are getting another title shot in 2127. Always appreciate the great post-show commentary, my friends... Later tonight - the Morpheus Memorial Cup tag team tournament!

That was a crazy DQ ending with AOM getting the win, but I liked the run-in by Nosfera. Quick question: Harbinger is a card that I don't have (except for having the first COTG set in color, the rest of my GWF color cards came included in orders) so I was wondering how he stacks up alongside the other big names like AOM, Monolith, Bishop Hell, Endgame etc. It sounds like he is a real force.

IMO, the 2127 version of Harbinger is one of the strongest cards in the entire game - Definitely on par with the most potent characters in the game, including Monolith, Endgame, Overmaster, etc. In fact, the only character I would consider stronger (without doubt) would be End of Days (who arrives in 2128)... The only caveat is that he loses his connection with Black Death the following year and receives a bit of a downgrade... Still able to compete with the upper tier players, but he would need a few dice rolls to go his way to come out on top... Nosfera is one of my favorite characters in the game and I like the fact that he's a wildcard that is always in play... However, without guidance, he is somewhat easy to manipulate or simply avoid altogether... Which is why he really hasn't been able to capitalize on his Sure Shot opportunity... Great to see you checking in, my friend... It's always a pleasure to behold that hooded AJ avatar!
