Premier Extravaganza certainly lived up to the expectations...
Great seeing the Airborne pick up the win... And was happy that American Wolves finally snapped that losing streak...
PJ Black vs. Ricochet would've been a sight to behold, I'm sure...
Gotta say, I'm impressed with The Kingdom... After suffering two losses to reDRagon, it would've been easy for them to circumvent the champs for awhile and try to pad their win column a bit... Instead, Taven and Bennett took the bull by the horns and forced the Board of Directors to consider them serious contenders...
Classy move by The Phenomenal One at the end of the show... Although it wasn't his fight, he intervened to stop Elgin's manhandling of Sabre Jr... At this stage of the game, I can't say that Elgin deserves a match with the defending champion, but Styles agreed to it anyway... That encounter will not be pretty...
Can't wait to see how the remainder of the matchups fall for Premier XI... Could a really big victory for someone like Brian Cage, Claudio Catagnoli or PJ Black make a difference? Could it bump one of them into the contenders circle? Especially if Styles loses his match against Elgin...
Who will stand across the ring from reDRagon? Who will be The Kingdom's opponents? A whole lot hanging in the balance...
Excellent stuff!

PREMIER XI
* reDRagon comes to the ring with microphones & the PREMIER Tag Team Championship. They look very irritated, & appear to only get even more irritated as the crowd jeers them. reDRagon announces that while they have encountered a couple of bumps in the road in PREMIER Pro lately, that is behind them & they are determined to keep the PREMIER Tag Team titles because they are still the top team in PREMIER Pro. The crowd continues to heckle them & THE KINGDOM'S music begins to play. The crowd immediately starts to cheer them as they walk to the ring. THE KINGDOM reminds reDRagon how making such claims started their recent losing streak, & also points out that both teams are now 2-2 against each other in PREMIER Pro. THE KINGDOM offers reDRagon a rubber match tonight to decide which team is the top team in PREMIER Pro. reDRagon smirk at each other & tell THE KINGDOM that as much as they would enjoy finishing this, they already have a match tonight with THE WOLVES, who notched their first PREMIER Pro tag team victory last night. Furthermore, with no other teams present tonight, reDRagon informs THE KINGDOM that they have the night off.
Three Way Match
TOMMASO CIAMPA [3-5] def LANCE HOYT [0-2] <L> and SHAUN RICKER [2-4] via PROJECT CIAMPA
* For the first time ever, two of the biggest pro wrestling stars in the UK today clash!
Singles Match
ZACK SABRE JR. [2-1] def DREW GALLOWAY [5-6] via CROSS ARMBREAKER
* Sabre, visibly banged up from his match with MICHAEL ELGIN last night, displays great heart & is victorious over the former PREMIER Champion!
Singles Match
BRIAN CAGE [4-4] def RICOCHET [0-2] via discus lariat
Singles Match
CLAUDIO CASTAGNOLI [2-1] def PJ BLACK [2-2] via RICOLA BOMB
* THE KINGDOM, without opponents tonight, join the commentary team for reDRagon's bout.
Tag Team Match
THE WOLVES (DAVEY RICHARDS [4-6] <W> & EDDIE EDWARDS [2-3]) def reDRagon (BOBBY FISH [8-3] & KYLE O'REILLY [8-3] <L>) via kicked to death
* reDRagon is stunned! THE WOLVES pull off the upset over the PREMIER Tag Team champions as THE KINGDOM watch from ringside, smiling at reDRagon following their shocking loss. Lots of questions now hang over the PREMIER tag team division. The champions, who looked indestructible with an 8-0 start, have now lost their last three matches!
Singles Match
AJ STYLES [8-2] def MICHAEL ELGIN [2-2] via springboard 450 splash
* Just as much of a war as it was the first time, if not more, Styles manages to come out the victor again. Styles extends his hand to Elgin after the bout in hopes of putting hard feelings aside, but Elgin, frustrated with his second loss to AJ in PREMIER Pro, storms out of the ring.
* As the event ends, the commentary team remarks about how things have changed in PREMIER Pro. reDRagon, who were once secure as tag team champions, are now in jeopardy of losing the titles, while the PREMIER Championship seems to have finally found a home with AJ STYLES. |

Very cool to see AJ Styles performing with such PHENOMENAL consistency... He should be an easy selection for the Board of Directors...
On the flip side, it looks like the Board might have to think outside the box for the first time when it comes to awarding the Premier Tag Team Championship... reDRagon has been dominating the competition until recently... Now they've lost their past three matches and two of them were to The Kingdom... The question is, has The Kingdom done enough up to this point to be considered for the honors? Or will the past accomplishments of Fish & O'Reilly keep them at the top? Very interested to see how this one plays out... It would also be cool if American Dragons can keep up their winning ways and get themselves into title contention...
Enjoy seeing talent like Brian Cage and Claudio Castagnoli... And Zack Sabre Jr might be one to watch out for if his trend continues...
This fed continues to bring solid innovation to the table... Happy to see it still going strong!

[PROMOTER'S NOTE: Sorry for the delay in posting, but I have been unexpectedly busy this week.]
* AJ STYLES was the unanimous decision to retain the PREMIER Championship after scoring wins over former PREMIER Champion DREW GALLOWAY and MICHAEL ELGIN last weekend. The PREMIER Tag Team Championship decision, however, has become much more complicated. After initially tearing through the PREMIER tag team ranks for their first eight bouts, reDRagon has now dropped three in a row. To further endanger their run as PREMIER Tag Team Champions, two of those losses were to THE KINGDOM. In addition, losing to the then-winless WOLVES did not benefit them, but in the end, it was possibly still better than risk losing to THE KINGDOM again. After much deliberation, the PREMIER board of directors have decided to keep the tag team titles on reDRagon. THE KINGDOM surely won't be pleased to hear this news! Remember: PREMIER champions are determined by the PREMIER board of directors & by them only, so both champions will need to choose their challengers wisely.
* Stay tuned for news regarding the next PREMIER events (which will hopefully be next weekend)!

Very cool to see The Phenomenal One continuing his reign... Not sure if I agree with the board's choice to keep the tag title on reDRagon... But, I'm sure it wasn't a decision they made lightly...
Best of luck to teams like The Kingdom, American Wolves and Irish Airborne going forward... Entertaining stuff!
