Block B Match – Fire Ant v. Ultramantis Black
Both these competitors struggled in the tournament and now sit tied for last in the block. This one was for pride.

There is a great spot where Ant manages to backdrop Black to the floor in the corner turning the momentum of the bout. We get some brawling on the floor and Black is again in control until he runs into Ant’s elbow in the corner. A pair of deathjumps set up a BEACH BREAK. Ant gets a 2 ½ count (R4/P3).
