I was pretty happy with how the show turned out. I would have liked Epoch to win also but Wolf will be a good champion. I'm going to have fun with Patch being in the fed. I wish his match was a bit more competitive but I guess it adds to his character. The tag match with Destroyer and Race was the only let down. For a match I built up, it was very short and one sided. The main event is the longest match I have ever played. It was wall to wall action. It felt like a Godzilla movie with two monsters just destroying each other. Monolith and AOM will have the next Blast off to "rest up." It will also give me a chance to figure out what to do with AOM now lol. That match was pretty decisive for now in their feud. I'm going to try and finish out 2011 before the end of the year. I want to start 2012 in real time. Also going to have a bunch of new wrestlers debuting. I might need to start a second show or do another whole fed. Lol with all the rambling I just did, I should have called this a Promoter's Notes post or something.

This was kind of a weak show IMO. Well that's the way the dice roll I guess hahaha.
Blast! 12.13.2011 from Asylum Arena, Earth - Show Opening. - We open with a recap of the big Season's Beatings event. The clips culminate with the epic battle between Monolith and AOM with Monolith winning and the crowd's reaction. - All for one and... One for all! - The time machine device is sitting in the middle of the ring. The flashing circle appears which signifies a time transfer. The fans begin to buzz with anticipation. There is a hum and three men appear in the center of the ring. The Great Muta, Shinya Hashimoto and Masahiro Chono!!! The Three Musketeers are in EPW!!!
Muta spits green mist out at the crowd to a huge reaction. Chono is sipping from a sake bottle and smoking a cigarette. This leaves the stoic Hashimoto to produce a microphone and address the crowd. He says it is an honor to be called to compete in EPW. Only the best of the best are given this opportunity. Even though his comrades seem a bit laid back, he tells the fans both men are incredible athletes. He says they will all wow the fans with their abilities. He is looking forward to facing the top talent of EPW and hopefully challenge for the EPW Title someday! Muta says chaos has arrived in EPW as he will debut tonight. All three members will be in action tonight! - Singles Match - ANOVAs vs. S.D. Jones Anivar defeated S.D. Jones with THE ENFORCER SPEAKS at 16:05 Match Notes: This was the longest night of poor S.D. Jones's EPW career. With Epoch out this week due to Anivar's assault at the PPV, S.D. Jones was set to face Anivar in his debut. Anivar tore into Jones with vicious strikes and slams. He even beat up the hapless wrestler outside the ring. Anivar ended it with The Enforcer Speaks at a little over fifteen minutes. - Singles Match - THE GREAT MUTA vs. Nikolai Volkoff THE GREAT MUTA defeated Nikolai Volkoff with a moonsault at 7:03 Match Notes: Volkoff came into this match hoping to turn his career around. He dominated early using his brute strength to great effect. He hit some huge stomps and dropped Muta's throat across the ropes. He nearly had the victory with a splash but Muta kicked out. Muta spit mist into Volkoff's eyes! He hit a vicious karate chop and almost got the submission with a Sickle Hold. The moonsault ended Volkoff's night and gave Muta a successful debut. - A thorn in Wolf's side. - Wolf is in the interview area backstage. He says winning the EPW TV Title was a great way to energize his EPW career after losing in the first tournament. He says Epoch was one of the toughest men he's ever faced. He says holding the TV Title means the champ must defend on every Blast show. This is perfect because Wolf loves to fight! Kowalski is a strong man and he relishes the idea of tangling with him tonight.
George Hackenschmidt storms into the interview area. He says he deserves a shot at the title. He's Russian and he's tough! Wolf replies that not only did he defeat George in the past, George lost in the TV Title tournament and he lost in the contender's match. Wolf says he owes George nothing! However this is the Christmas season and Wolf is a kind man. He tells George he will give him a present. George will get one more shot at gaining a title shot. If he can defeat... Shinya Hashimoto tonight! George's face goes bright red and he runs away in a panic. Wolf howls with laughter. - Trouble is a brewing. - Stars and Stripes are backstage admiring their new EPW Tag Team Titles. Guy says the Warriors were the strongest team they've ever faced. He never imagined that they would defeat such a legendary team. Male agrees and states they will give Hawk and Animal a rematch any day. A voice responds "That isn't going to happen!" Muss and The Bomb enter the locker room with Phantasy by their side. Guy and Male leap to their feet ready to fight. Phantasy says the best tag team of all time has arrived. The Troubleshooters are here to take that EPW Tag Team Championship and silence the critics. Male responds that they've defeated the Shooters various times in the past. What makes them think this time will be any different? He also says they can't just waltz in and gain a title shot. Bomb responds that they aren't going to just waltz in. They are going to dismantle every team in the EPW. It's a flimsy division after all and then challenge the champs. Guy says bring it on! - Singles Match - MASAHIRO CHONO vs. Boris Zhukov Boris Zhukov defeated MASAHIRO CHONO with a DIVING HEADBUTT at 3:04 Match Notes: Chono started strong with a few submission attempts. He was even able to muscle Zhukov up and hit three vertical suplexes. However a failed Irish whip into the buckles lead to a hard shoulder tackle! Zhukov hit two diving headbutts and picked up the victory! The fans were stunned as Zhukov yelled with joy. Chono looked disgusted with himself. - EPW TV Title Contender's Match - George Hackenschmidt vs. SHINYA HASHIMOTO SHINYA HASHIMOTO defeated George Hackenschmidt with a DDT at 3:36 Match Notes: Hackenschmidt rushed Hashimoto at the bell and took him down locking on a body scissors. He squeezed with all his mite but Hashimoto was able to break free. He knocked poor George senseless with a hard kick to the leg. From there the DDT followed and Hashimoto picked up the win. Hackenschmidt pounded the mat in anger after the match. - Tag Match - Al Snow and Jimmy Snuka vs. Nitro and Tristan Tristan defeated Jimmy Snuka with a TITAN POWER at 7:28 Match Notes: The Titans started in control. A Five Star Frog Splash by Tristan almost got the win immediately but Snow kicked out. The match spilled to the floor where Snuka and Snow took advantage. They worked over Nitro for a while but we able to counter a moonsault by Snow to tag in Tristan. A Titan Power followed but Snuka made the save. Nitro used Bad Vibrations but again Snuka made the save. Snow hit a Snow-plex and made the hot tag to Snuka. Things didn't go well though as Nitro hit Bad Vibrations on Snuka and then tagged in Tristan to get the win with Titan Power. The Titans celebrated and made their intentions known... They wanted to be champions! - EPW TV Title Match - Wolf vs. Killer Kowalski for the EPW TV Title Killer Kowalski defeated Wolf with a CLAW HOLD at 14:00 Match Notes: This was the best match of the night so far! The action went back and forth with both men desperately trying to defeat the other. Wolf locked in the Savage Faceclaw but Kowalski powered out. Kowalski hit two Giant Swings but Wolf managed to roll the shoulder from both. The fight spilled outside twice with Kowalski easily winning the brawls. He tried for the Claw but Wolf wriggled free and locked in the Savage Faceclaw! The fans went wild as Kowalski fought and was able to get free. A big clothesline by Kowalski lead to another Claw and Wolf wouldn't give in! He kept fighting... Until he passed out! Kowalski kept the hold locked in and had to be pulled away by the referee. He took the TV Title and raised it high as the fans booed. Wolf got to his feet and stared a hole through Kowalski. He howled in frustration and left. - Iron Man Match - Rob Van Dam vs. Tiger Mask Rob Van Dam defeated Tiger Mask with a split legged moonsault at 12:32 Rob Van Dam defeated Tiger Mask with a Van Daminater at 10:22 Match Notes: The fans were severely let down by this match. RVD dominated the whole 30 minutes. He was able to pin TM at will. A sick Van Daminater sealed the result. After the match, TM got on the microphone and announced he was leaving EPW! He said he needed to do some soul searching. He couldn't allow himself to have terrible performances like what just happened. He said Nitro was in good hands with Tristan and was gaining confidence. He wasn't needed anymore. He said he didn't know if or when he would return. He thanked the fans and apologized again for his less than stellar record.

Wow! Wolf falls to Killer Kowalski and the TV Belt changes hands with lightning speed, that's Cool. I loved the crowd jeering Kowalski and I'm sure Wolf will want a rematch. I really liked Boris Zhukov with a huge victory over Chono and RVD crushing Tiger Mask is pretty shocking, but that victory is huge for Van Dam I'm sure...

Good show! Troubleshooters and Strars and Stripes is always a good feud, especially if the tag team titles are on the line. The Troubleshooters have the talent to back up their words thats for sure. Nice win for Nitro and Tristan. Can't wait to see them challenge for the tag team titles. Big win for RVD. Hate to see Tiger Mask go, but hopefully he comes back down the line better than ever.

Thanks for the feedback guys. Things are definitely heating up in the tag division. I just have a feeling the titles will be passed around like a hot potato. I do plan to bring Tiger Mask back but I kept setting him up with things and he never performed how I wanted him to. Not sure how to bring him in again but he's going to be back. RVD absolutely destroyed him in that match. It was rather sad.

I didn't anticipate taking a break from EPW but I guess I did lol. Here's the next show everyone.
Note: Everyone is able to communicate with each other via Language Implants.
Blast! 01.03.2012 from Fleet Center, Earth - Welcome to 2012! - Rex Stone came to the ring to start the show. He apologized for the lack of action the last two weeks. The EPW went on a short Holiday break. He said everyone was well rested and ready to wrestle! The EPW TV title would be defended tonight as Wolf would get a rematch against Killer Kowalski! The fans went wild for this announcement. He said the tag team division has a lot of teams demanding title shots. Each team will have to earn their shot. Tonight would see Titan Power battle The Troubleshooters! The winners of that match will face The Road Warriors to see who will challenge Stars and Stripes!
The Gladiator theme began to play causing a massive heel reaction. Aethran Overmaster flanked by Havoc and Paralyze came to the ring. AOM told Stone to make his rematch! He wanted to regain the title and destroy Monolith. Stone said he'd love to make that match but someone else wanted a chance to face AOM. Someone from Earth. A legendary monster in the wrestling world had specifically asked to battle AOM. AOM started to laugh and said no one from Earth would ever defeat him!
Suddenly the circle of light appeared in the ring! The fans began to buzz as it swirled... Revealing Andre the Giant!!! AOM stared at Andre and again began to laugh. This Earthling would not stand a chance. Andre responded by shoving AOM! He got in the Aethran's face and told him to quit his yapping. They were going to fight tonight and only one would walk away! Stone said AOM and Andre would meet in the main event of the evening! The fans went wild as Andre and AOM stood toe to toe. - Singles Match - Patch vs. Konnan Patch defeated Konnan with a PATCH WORK at 4:24 Match Notes: Patch attacked Konan before the bell and never let up. He displayed his brawling skills in and out of the ring. A splash followed by the Patch Work sealed the deal. He continued to punch and kick Konan after the match screaming for Magnum T.A. to show himself. The fans exploded as Magnum hit the ring with a chair! He smacked Patch right in his patched eye! Another shot to the face and Patch left the ring. Magnum checked on Konan before taking the microphone. He told Patch that he was sorry. Truly sorry to be blessed with good looks! The fans popped huge. Magnum said he got to this level of wrestling by his talent. The world knew he was one of the best and most talented competitors to ever enter a wrestling ring. He told Patch that he would prove that next week. He challenged Patch to face him one on one! Patch smirked and nodded before leaving the ringside area. - Six Man Tag - MASAHIRO CHONO, THE GREAT MUTA, and SHINYA HASHIMOTO vs. George Hackenschmidt, Boris Zhukov, and Nikolai Volkoff THE GREAT MUTA defeated Boris Zhukov with a MUTA MIST at 18:32 Match Notes: Chono and Hackenschmidt started out with some great technical wrestling exchanges. Eventually Hack began to dominate and attempted the Bearhug only for Muta to interfere. Chono tagged in Muta and he spit green mist into Hackenschmidt's eyes! Hackenschmidt began to stomp around the ring shrieking about being blind. Muta kicked him in the face and hit the Moonsault! Hack kicked out at two! He tried to exit the ring to recover but Muta rammed his head into the steel! Another Moonsault saw Volkoff make the save! Volkoff and Zhukov used their teamwork to take apart Muta for the next several minutes. He was able to fight back however and hit a quick dragon screw on Volkoff. He tagged in Hashimoto who entered on fire! He laid both Bolsheviks out with running DDT's! Hackenschmidt tried to interfere but Chono nailed him with a Yakuza kick! The next several minutes saw both teams trading control. Chono and Hashimoto worked mostly technical while Muta was very unpredictable. At one point, He threw Volkoff to the floor and then hit a missile kick to the outside! In the end, Hackenschmidt at Muta were again in the ring. Hackenschmidt tried for a bearhug but was misted again! Muta rolled him up for the surprise pinfall! The Bolsheviks hit the ring and attacked Muta! Chono and Hashimoto ran in to even the odds. Hackenschmidt complained to the ref who said he didn't see anything unusual. Hackenschmidt demanded a match against Muta for next week. Muta accepted. - Epoch Returns! - Anivar came to the ring for his scheduled match against Al Snow. He was just about to enter the ring when Epoch came through the crowd! He speared Anivar into the ring post and began to hammer away with punches! Anivar blocked a punch and struck Epoch with a brutal headbutt creating some distance. Security dashed to the ring and tried to grab both men. Epoch sent two guards flying! He ran towards Anivar and attempted a tackle only to get clotheslined! The brawl continued around ringside with neither man giving an inch. Finally Epoch grabbed a stun rod and nailed Anivar right in the temple! The shock sent Anivar to the ground. Epoch picked him up and nailed The Dark Age on the floor! He stared down at his enemy and produced a microphone. He asked Rex Stone if this was the best he could do? It didn't matter who Stone tried to get... No one would stop Epoch!
Anivar regained his feet and wiped the blood off his face. He told Epoch that next week they were going to war! Epoch just smirked and left. - Singles Match - Harley Race vs. Endgame Endgame defeated Harley Race with a ROLLING FIGURE FOUR at 2:18 Match Notes: Race came to the ring and started his usual spill about the evil aliens. Endgame hit the ring and the fight was on! Race had success early bullying Endgame around the ring. He hit the Piledriver but Endgame kicked out! He attempted another but it was reversed. Endgame locked on the Figure Four and Race had no choice but to tap. Endgame offered his hand after the match but Race slapped it away. He left muttering to himself. - Tag Match - The Bomb and Muss vs. Nitro and Tristan Tristan defeated The Bomb with a TITAN POWER at 14:22 Match Notes: This was perhaps the best tag match in EPW's short history. Both teams put on a clinic of tag team wrestling. Nitro was isolated early as Bomb and Muss took him apart. They used their great double teams and almost had the win on two occasions. Nitro wouldn't quit however and managed to tag in Tristan. Titan Power began to dominate Muss and hit Titan Power but Bomb broke it up. Phantasy tried to interfere but Nitro pulled her off the apron! In the end, Titan Power was victorious via Titan Power on Muss! Titan Power will now face The Road Warriors to see who gets the next title shot. The Troubleshooters were livid and stomped off. - Singles Match - The Destroyer vs. Bloodline Bloodline defeated The Destroyer with a COSMIC BIG BANG (Roll: 1 at 16:54 Match Notes: This was a great back and forth match. Both men fought hard and had the victory in their grasp many times. Bloodline was able to pull off the win however to the delight of the crowd. Destroyer got to his feet and called Bloodline to the center of the ring. He said he entered this business to test his skills. Competition was the name of the game. Harley Race had caused him to lose sight of that fact. Bloodline gave him the fight of his career and defeated him. He said alien or not that Bloodline deserved his respect. He reached out his hand to Bloodline. The fans were stunned and so was Bloodline. Bloodline slowly extended his hand and the two men shook hands! Destroyer apologized to Bloodline and Endgame saying he had seen the error of his ways.
Harley Race came to ringside and asked Destroyer to explain himself! Earth needed to be united! They couldn't falter now and lose everything. Destroyer told Race that he was a fool. Men like Bloodline and Endgame were competitors just like them. Their homelands didn't matter. Race replied that Destroyer was making a big mistake. He didn't want to fight a fellow earth man... But Destroyer gave him no choice! Jimmy Snuka appeared and hit the ring! He attacked Destroyer from behind with a big headbutt! Race grabbed Destroyer and was setting up for a Piledriver only to be superkicked by Bloodline! Destroyer recovered and blasted Snuka with a vicious forearm! Race and Snuka slid out of the ring as Bloodline and Destroyer stood tall. Race told them to watch their backs. He had re-enforcements coming and no one would be safe! Destroyer was a trader to Earth and would be dealt with! - King Kong Bundy and Godzilla? - Bundy was walking around backstage yelling at everyone. He was upset he didn't have a match and hadn't seen a lot of action. Rikidozan walked up to Bundy and calmly told him to stop. He was creating a scene. Bundy slapped Rikidozan across the face! He said little men should not talk to bigger men like that. He was King Kong Bundy! No one spoke to him like that! Rikidozan replied that if Bundy wanted a match tonight he would be glad to face him. He said someone needed to shut the loud mouth up. Bundy agreed and told Rikidozan he would smash him just like King Kong did Godzilla! Bundy walked off laughing at his joke as Rikidozan stared. - Singles Match - Mantis vs. Rob Van Dam Rob Van Dam defeated Mantis with a FIVE STAR FROG SPLASH at 4:36 Match Notes: Mantis returned from his injury and faced a very game RVD. Mantis was unable to mount any offense and RVD got the win with the Five Star Frog Splash! After the match, he demanded a TV Title shot. - TV Title Match - Wolf vs. Killer Kowalski for the EPW TV Title Wolf defeated Killer Kowalski with a SAVAGE FACE CLAW at 7:23 Match Notes: This match was a brawl. The battle raged in and out of the ring. Wolf gained control by slamming Kowalski's head into the steel! He hit a backbreaker and locked on the Savage Face Claw... Kowalski tried to fight but was forced to tap! Wolf grabbed his belt and howled! He took the microphone and told RVD to bring it! - Singles Match - King Kong Bundy vs. Rikidozan Rikidozan defeated King Kong Bundy with a DQ! at 6:56 Match Notes: Rikidozan was able to use his speed to outmaneuver Bundy in this match. He sent the monster to the floor with some big chops! Bundy dragged Rikidozan out with him and threw the Japanese legend into the barrier! He hit a big body tackle sending Rikidozan to the concrete. The ref warned Bundy to take the action back in the ring! He responded by tossing Rikidozan back in the ring and nailing the big splash! He went for the cover but Rikidozan managed to break free! Bundy was furious and shoved the referee! The ref called for the bell and disqualified Bundy. Bundy went for the ref again but Rikidozan took him down with a hiplock. Bundy left the ring and went to the back yelling all the way. - Singles Match - Aethran Overmaster vs. Andre the Giant Andre the Giant defeated Aethran Overmaster with a BIG SPLASH at 6:51 Match Notes: Surprisingly, Andre dominated this match. He showed off his power by bodyslamming AOM twice much to the surprise of the crowd. AOM battled back and hit some stiff headbutts but they had no affect on Andre! He slammed AOM again and hit the Big Splash for the win! The fans were shocked at Andre's display. He calmly took the microphone and challenged Monolith to meet him next week. AOM attacked Andre from behind! He hit a huge chokeslam and followed with the Reign! He told Andre that their fight wasn't over. He challenged the Frenchman to a best two out of three series! Andre got to his feet and replied... "You're On!"

Another excellent event and I like the Destroyer telling Harley Race is a fool and then Snuka attacking the Destroyer was golden. I have a feeling Earth versus Aliens not only went up a notch, but it's going to get really bloody. Patch over Konnan is Cool and the build-up between Bundy & Rikidozan was Solid as was AOM facing Andre the Giant and I'm glad Andre was the victor...

Thanks for the complaments. Andre really destroyed AOM. I thought it would be more competitive. I really want to make the Earth heels VS. Earth and Alien heroHeros a good feud. Only problem is I need to find more Alien characters to use. Lol. I picked the best GWF guys I own so I guess it's off to the bootleg forum to search.

Blast! 01.10.2012 from Hershey Center, Earth - The champ returns! - The show began with Monolith's music playing throughout the arena. The fans immediately jumped to their feet and gave the EPW World Champion a standing ovation. Monolith thanked the fans and said he was truly stunned by their reaction towards him. He figured all Earthlings would act like Harley Race and Jimmy Snuka. The fans responded with some loud boos. Monolith said he had many battles in his career. He fought some of the best wrestlers ever... But this past match was his toughest. He hit AOM with everything in his arsenal but AOM kept getting back up. He said it was only with the help of the fans driving him on that he conquered the menace. Now he has to look to the future. Based on the upcoming match, he will either face AOM again or Andre the Giant! The fans cheered at the mention of Andre. The champ said he would love to battle one of the strongest Earth wrestlers in history. So he was pulling for "The Giant!"
Encubus's music began to play causing the fans to let out a huge heel reaction. He entered the ring and produced a microphone. Before Encubus could even speak however Monolith cut him off. He knew why Encubus was in the ring. He felt passed over and neglected. He wanted a match and to show Rex Stone what he was missing. He told Encubus to get ready because he wanted a fight! He would face Encubus in a non-title match tonight! Encubus looked very angry that he didn't get to talk but threw down the microphone and headed to the back. The fans applauded and chuckled at Monolith's handling of Encubus.
He told the fans that 2012 would be a huge year for EPW and he planned to be champion the whole year! The fans exploded as Monolith exited. - Singles Match - THE GREAT MUTA vs. George Hackenschmidt George Hackenschmidt defeated THE GREAT MUTA with a RUSSIAN BEAR HUG at 10:32 Match Notes: Hackenschmidt really used his technical background to keep Muta grounded in this contest. He nearly had the win twice with the Russian Bear Hug but Muta was able to break free. Outside the ring, Muta blinded Hackenschmidt with the mist! He rolled him in but only got a two. Another mist try but Hackenschmidt was able to duck and locked on the Bear Hug forcing Muta to submit. Hackenschmidt paraded around the ring celebrating his win. - Singles Match - Patch vs. Magnum T.A. Magnum T.A. defeated Patch with a BELLY TO BELLY SUPLEX at 0:38 Match Notes: This match was vastly different from their first encounter. Patch tried to attack before the bell but Magnum foght him off. From there TA displayed his wrestling ability not letting Patch get a breather. He ended the match with a Belly to Belly Suplex! Patch tried to attack TA with a screwdriver afterwards but Magnum nailed a dropkick causing Patch to exit the ring! - The Earth Preservation and Protection Agency. - Harley Race and Jimmy Snuka were in the backstage area. Race said he would like to formally introduce the EPPA movement. The Earth Preservation and Protection Agency was founded to save the Earth from the Alien menace that was infiltrating EPW. Earth was the best planet in the galaxy and he would not let it fall or be corrupted by Alien beasts. Tonight Jimmy Snuka would begin the cleansing by taking care of that trader Destroyer! Race was still stunned that his first ally would side with the non humans. He said his new recruits were in the arena and told Bloodline and Endgame to stay away from ringside. Unless they wanted to burn! - Singles Match - Anivar vs. Epoch Anivar defeated Epoch with a Rules of the Game at 15:39 Match Notes: These two hated rivals renewed their feud in EPW. Epoch had the advantage early and nearly got the pin with the Pavo powerbomb. He hit a cradle neckbreaker and Anivar rolled out of the ring. Epoch followed looking to do further damage. Anivar rallied and began to beat down Epoch. He tossed the monster into the railing causing it to collapse! Fans in the front row ran as the two men brawled through the crowd! Anivar nailed a spinebuster on the floor! He dragged Epoch back to the ring and attempted a cover only for Epoch to battle out at two! Epoch hit a huge clothesline to take control. He nailed two cradle neckbreakers and another Pavo powerbomb but Anivar managed to kick out! Epoch tossed Anivar into the buckle and charged... Only for Anivar to kick him in the face! He ended Epic's night with Rules of the Game!
Anivar exited the ring and began to walk up the ramp. Epoch came from behind and cracked him in the skull with his lead pipe! It took four shots to drop Anivar. Epoch raised the pipe overhead preparing for one final blow. Security hit the scene and removed the pipe from Epoch. He shouted that Anivar may have won this round but the war was just beginning! - Tag Match - The Bolsheviks vs. and MASAHIRO CHONO, SHINYA HASHIMOTO SHINYA HASHIMOTO defeated Boris Zhukov with a ddt at 41:29 Match Notes: This was a huge surprise! This was without a doubt the best tag match in EPW's short history. Both teams traded control and pin attempts. The Bolsheviks showed great team work and focus isolating both Japanese stars. Chono and Hashimoto wouldn't quit and kept battling. Finally Hashimoto ended the match with a DDT. The fans gave all four men a standing ovation. Volkoff and Zhukov glared at the fans before leaving the ring.
Backstage, Volkoff demanded that they get a rematch. The Bolsheviks came this close to proving their Russian dominance. They deserve another shot. Hackenschmidt said things were looking up for the Mother Land. Next week, The Bolsheviks would be victorious against Chono and Hashimoto! - Singles Match - Rikidozan vs. King Kong Bundy Rikidozan defeated King Kong Bundy with a THUNDEROUS CHOPS at 4:23 Match Notes: Rikidozan easily defeated Bundy yet again.

Nitro used some nice spin kicks to stun Animal long enough to hit Bad Vibrations! Hawk broke up the pin quickly and Nitro tagged out to Tristan. Nitro hit a huge moonsault taking Hawk to the floor! With Hawk down, Tristan and Nitro hit Titan Power and picked up the huge upset! The titans jumped into the crowd to celebrate their big win. Hawk and Animal looked stunned and very angry. - Singles Match - Monolith vs. Encubus Monolith defeated Encubus with THE END OF ALL THINGS at 8:35 Match Notes: The champ looked great here. He was never in any danger and finished off Encubus with The End of All Things. - TV Title Match - Rob Van Dam vs. Wolf for the EPW TV Title Rob Van Dam defeated Wolf with a FIVE STAR FROG SPLASH at 18:57 Match Notes: Wolf's streak of unsuccessful defenses continued. He was able to control most of the match inside and outside the ring. Every time RVD tried to get a break outside, Wolf would attack and win the brawls. Finally RVD knocked Wolf out with the Van Daminater! He hit the Frog Splash for the win and the title. He mocked Wolf after the match and called him a choke artist and loser. Wolf jumped to his feet and charged RVD, who slipped out of the ring laughing. Wolf howled in anger and promised RVD he'd be back. RVD said fine, that he would just put him down again. - Singles Match - The Destroyer vs. Jimmy Snuka The Destroyer defeated Jimmy Snuka with a sensational Suplex at 8:09 Match Notes: Snuka attacked before Destroyer was even in the ring! The wildman bloodied Destroyer with some hard headbutts and chops. Back in the ring, The Destroyer found his rhythm and began to take control. He used some great forearm shots and suplexes proving that he is a great technician. Snuka reversed a Suplex and chopped Destroyer in the throat! He threw the masked man outside where Race hit a piledriver on the floor! Snuka rolled Destroyer back in and made the cocky cover... Only for Destroyer to kick out!

Race hit the ring and hit another piledriver on Destroyer! Bloodline and Endgame ran down and started fighting with Race and Snuka. Killer Kowalski appeared and hit a big power slam on Bloodline! Endgame went to attack Kowalski but a masked man hit the ring. Endgame turned around and was blasted by a fireball!!! Destroyer tried to help but Snuka came off the top nailing the splash!
Race took a microphone and told the EPW to welcome the EPPA! He said Earth would be saved. He thanked Kowalski for being his muscle. He said every team needed a bruiser and Kowalski would do nicely. He turned to the masked man and thanked him as well. He said every great team needed a loose cannon. A man who wasn't afraid to bleed for the cause. He told the man to reveal himself. The fans were stunned as the mask was ripped off... Revealing EDDIE GILBERT!!!! Gilbert said the Alien scum had no place on his planet. He was ready to help Race with his cause. The battle for Earth's preservation had truly begun! Raced looked down at their crumpled foes and smiled. He said if this was the best the Aliens had then it was going to be easy. - Singles Match - Aethran Overmaster vs. Andre the Giant Andre the Giant defeated Aethran Overmaster with a BIG SPLASH at 16:55 Match Notes: Monolith sat at ringside to watch the main event. AOM had the early advantage throwing the large Earthling all around the ring. Andre kept fighting though much to the delight of the fans. AOM began to get frustrated as Andre would not stay down. He hit three overhead tosses with Andre kicking out after each. Monolith began to cheer on Andre which distracted AOM. AOM left the ring to get in Monolith's face. The champ told AOM to focus on his opponent. Andre came out of the ring and threw AOM into the ring post! Andre showed his power by press slamming AOM back into the ring! He hit two splashes and got the victory! Monolith congratulated Andre and told him he looked forward to facing him. Andre responded that he wanted his shot next week!!! Monolith agreed and the match was made.
