- What We See -
The second of the "sister shows" looks and feels like the first. Security did a wonderful job keeping the fans calm, cool, and collected so there are no plans to deviate from what worked!
Witchdoctor vs. Exodus
Exodus defeated Witchdoctor with WRAITH OF GOD at 2:43
Match Rating: 1.00
Originally meant to be Shepard vs. Witchdoctor but the Vagabond Priest has been investigating the violence seemingly spreading across Centra.
With Gabriel still on the shelf from the stabbing at Roll the Dice, Exodus offered to step in.
Witchdoctor tries to jump start the match (and Exodus) but everything he did was countered and matched - Exodus lands on his feet after a back body drop then lands a knee breaker. Witchdoctor tries to overpower Exodus with a fallaway slam that Exodus gracefully flips through to land on a knee and hit a flying press. The Fallen Angel answers a knee to the stomach with a heavy fist then Angel Eye. Done with the games he finishes it with WRAITH OF GOD.
- Awkward... -
Darkseed is prepping for his match boxing a concrete wall in his locker room when Scud tentatively walks in.
"Long time, no see Big Fella." Scud says trying to hide his fear. "Exciting news, I got us booked! We are the official hosts for Party Centra!"
Darkseed stops pounding the wall but doesn't turn.
"What the hell is that?"
"The Board of Directors have seen the numbers we've done on Showtime! and want us to bring that energy to the whole show." Scud tries to remain positive but can tell Darkseed isn't in the mood.
"I don't want to host! I want to fight!"
Darkseed turns to Scud.
Scud stands frozen.
He isn't sure if Darkseed is speaking in generalities or if he means him.
Finally, Darkseed breaks the tension.
"Are we finished here?" Darkseed asks before turning back to the wall.
Scud says nothing else, just slowly backs out of the room.
Lance At-Las vs. Hustler
Hustler defeated Lance At-Las via Disqualification at 6:21
Match Rating: 2.50
At-Las came to wrestle. Hustler came to fight.
A collar and elbow to start it off leads to a Lance hip toss to Hustler which the Blue Steel member did not enjoy.
He gets up and shoves At-Las and this one gets ugly right away. Lance tries to keep it professional applying a double arm bar but gets bitch slapped to break the hold and the gloves come off. Both men manage to kick out of the others finisher (Hustler also escapes the WANDERER'S CLUTCH) and the fans are into it.
Hustler counters a waistlock suplex into a Street Soldier Suplex and gets a two count.
Mack Caliber thought the count was slow and starts arguing with the ref allowing Hustler to pistol whip Lance At-Las! Fans are outraged the ref misses the illegal action as Hustler feigns ignorance.
Again, Caliber starts jawing with the ref and again Hustler pistol whips At-las this time drawing blood.
Aspin Northstar has seen enough, entering the ring and tackling Hustler off his friend and mentor. Unfortunately, the ref catches this and disqualifies Lance At-Las.

Darkseed vs. Paganax
Paganax defeated Darkseed with PAGAN VOID at 5:23
Match Rating: 2.00
The match almost immediately exits the ring and heads for the concourse.
Fans circle around the two behemoths as they tear apart a souvenir stand; Darkseed chokes Paganax with his own shirt while the Heathen Chief unloads with everything at his disposal from Paganax hands to Peacemaker helmet. The Lava God ends it with a PAGAN VOID on the arena steps.
- Hustler's Challenge -
Backstage a Floating Vid Monitor catches up with Hustler walking to his locker room. Mack Caliber isn't far behind.
Hustler - I see how it is, Lance. You wanna pop shit about my dude interfering in matches then your boy tackles me in the middle of ours. Well, I got a simple solution - Light Brigade versus Me and Mack. Get on your Comm Link talk to your best buddy, we all know Aegis got that power, and get it approved.
You wanted to **** around, now it's time to find out.
- Nes Kincade -
Nes rides out on a rascal scooter, arm in a sling and wearing a neck brace, possibly the same one from the Blackheart Beach Party. He orders the ringside security to lift him - scooter and all into the ring.
Kincade - I'm sorry to be the bearer of bad news but due to injuries I sustained at the horrendous attack perpetuated by The Amazing Mann, I will not be able to defend my title against Pendragon at Party Centra. I know I know, I'm as disappointed as you. I was looking forward to --
Pendragon didn't wait for Nes to finish, just walks out and calmly gets in the ring.
Pendragon - I watched your match from the back last week. The minute I saw that Amazing Mann wasn't releasing the hold I knew you were going to pull this. So I made a call...Nothing personal, I just don't trust you.
Pendragon pulls a Comm device out of his pocket and plays a message from Aegis.
Aegis - I have spoken with the Board and they all agree - Nes Kincade fights or he forfeits. There is no Option C.
Pendragon - You're not getting out of this one, Nes...or you can give me the title now.
Kincade hugs the title as tight as he can.
Pendragon - I was hoping that would be your response. Okay then. See you soon.
aCe Holovision Championship
Nightmare vs. Totalis
Totalis defeated Nightmare with Wall of Fame at 8:46
Match Rating: 3.75
Totalis uses his power to his advantage taking down Nightmare with shoulder blocks and planting him with spine busters. Nightmare wouldn't go without a fight striking the throat and using Demon Dreamscape nearly getting the win. The power advantage would come into play again when Totalis plants the Holovision champion with a spear then locks in Wall of Fame, shouting his many accomplishments ending it with "AND ONCE AGAIN HOLOVISION CHAMPION!"
- The Nemean Show -
Nemean sits on a barstool in the ring under a single spotlight with THE NEMEAN SHOW lights turned to a soft hue.
Nemean - I've seen the error of my ways. I shouldn't have taken you, my loyal fans, for granted. We are here to entertain you, for this is all-Centra entertainment, and maybe I failed in that aspect. I was so excited for you to come on that journey with me at 4CT that I was disappointed in your lackluster response when I won, but I digress. This is my Mea Culpa. I'd like to invite out the man who helped me see how foolish I was - Peacemaker!
Peacemaker comes out but keeps his distance, skeptical of the legitimacy of Nemean's claim. The lights rise as Nemean continues.
Nemean - My attitude wasn't the best, you tried to talk some sense into me and I didn't want to hear it. I apologize to you and the fans.
Nemean extends his hand as the fans either cheer for Peacemaker to accept it or yell no as a warning. Peacemaker slowly takes his hand and they shake. Fans clap as Nemean continues.
Nemean - Maybe we can team together sometime - Ravager and Centran together!
Peacemaker nods and turns to walk off but Nemean doesn't let go.
Nemean - I really appreciate this, sir. It's been a rough go since Ventross attacked me. I think I...I kinda lost my smile, ya know? Thanks for being there and not giving up on me.
Peacemaker says something along the line of everyone makes mistakes and Nemean is smiling, nodding politely. As Peacemaker turns to leave, Nemean's smile disappears as he runs up and hits Peacemaker in the back of the head with his mic. Peacemaker falls to a knee but goes completely down after Hunger Strike. In a move reminiscent of the Nemean Show Match, Nemean pushes the huge metal set letters on top of Peacemaker crushing him! Peacemaker screams out in pain as Nemean walks on top of the letters putting more weight on Tiber.
Nemean -You so desperately want to be a Ravager, begging to fight on our behalf in the 4CT. You want to be a Ravager so bad why not fight me in a Ravager specialty? A Coffin Match!
Nemean puts more pressure on the heavy-set letters. Nemean holds the mic to Peacemaker who wails in pain.
Nemean - I'll get an answer when you're not so weighed down!
Avarice and The Brothers Oaken vs. The Amazing Mann and Shock Syndicate
Avarice defeated Holocaust with 7th SIN at 9:58
Match Rating: 3.00
Donk and Holocaust start the match off, both competitors very familiar with each other at this point. Holocaust is in charge until the fight spills outside the ring. COUPE DE GRACE gets a 2 and in comes Rorus.
He gets a 2 after BLACK AND BLUE.
Avarice tags in and eyes down The Amazing Mann who steps off the ring apron and walks to the back!

The New School has their way with Holocaust until he finally makes the tag. Flatliner gives them a fighting chance nearly getting the pin after SHOCK AND AWE.
A savatte kick almost gets The Syndicate the win in what turned out to be a handicap match but SHOCKWAVE backfires on a desperate Holocaust.
Rorus hits Salt in the Wounds before tagging in Avarice who ends it with a second 7th Sin.
