Thanks to Pariah for part of the inspiration for this. This is not my planned Kronos fed, but sometimes I'll just run a show with several wrestlers I like to use. This is one of them.
Kronos Special Show 1. Battering Ram edged Burning Man with the Battering Ram. This was a close battle with Man dominating for a while but late in the match Ram avoided a dive to the floor and took control, battering BM down before finally finishing him off.
2. The Gladiators (Paralyze and Havoc) squashed Royal Court with Aethran Atrocity on Jack of Diamonds. Jack had a few moments, but Paralyze tagged out after an atomic skullcrusher and then Havoc quickly dropped Jack down before the Gladiators hit their tag finisher to win.
3. Scourge held off Rouser with a spinecracker. This was a big battle surprisingly as both had chances to win but in the end, Scourge backdropped off Rouser from a piledriver and then locked in the spinecracker for a submission.
4. The Gatekeeper edged Fury with a double underhook faceslam. This was a tight battle and Fury nearly took it twice with the Face Remover. Gatekeeper managed to comeback and hit a pair of double underhook faceslams to score the three count.
5. Mandrill (00) finished off Commander Sam (30th) following the Mutant Mauler. Sam came very close to scoring the win but Mandrill would not be denied lifting Sam up high before covering him for the victory.
6. Secret Society of Showmen took down Transevolver when Nemean pinned Dreadnaught following the Showbiz Gut Buster. Monad had his moments but Dreadnaught just could not keep going and Mann and Nemean took advantage finally finishing him off.
7. Wolf (31) took down Bounty Hunter with the Savage Face Claw. This was a back and forth war but eventually Wolf wore down Hunter and clamped on the Claw keeping Hunter's shoulders down for the pin.
8. Anivar made a comeback to defeat King Lear. King Lear dominated most of the match but Anivar managed to drill Lear with an overhead right and that dropped the big man. Anivar covered grabbing a handful of trunks for additional leverage to win.
9. Titan Fury managed to put away Big Things when Dragon Master used the Dragon Drop on Betrayer. Gryt and Betrayer got in some good shots but they never had either Titan in big danger and eventually Dragon Master managed to drop Betrayer before scoring the three count.
10. Red Talon upset Tendron following the Flying Headhunt. The Destroyer looked like he had the win but somehow Talon managed to come back and hit the Flying Headhunt out of nowhere for the victory.
11. Zeta Grey finished off Vanity (93) with a flying cross body block. Vanity had his moments here but in the end, Zeta took Vanity down on the floor, tossed him into the ring and climbed to the top and dropped Vanity down for a three count.
12. Crimson Carnival easily disposed of Genesis Prime as Tricks quickly put away Vertigo with Sleepy Time. Steele Freak and Wraith never get into the match before Tricks quickly clamps on Sleepy Time and Wraith can't make it into the ring fast enough to make the save.
13. Killer Queen (30th) overcame Talisman following the Black Widow. Talisman got in a lot, but Queen took control on the floor, hit a Nightmare Leap and then Black Widow to finally win.
14. Max Shield survived Kill Prey with Maximum Impact. Shield dominated most of the match but Kill Prey was making a big comeback until Shield managed to reverse and hit Maximum Impact for the three count.
15. The Super Star Fighters beat Unspeakable Horror following The Apocalypse (+2) on Anarchy. This was a fun and wild brawl but in the end, Slayer managed to catch Anarchy with Mad Mat and then quickly followed up with The Apocalypse. Skull could not react in time and Slayer scored the victory.
16. Thraxx (28) put down U.S. Patriot (93) following Immovable Object. Both guys had chances here as Patriot made good use of the ropes and Thraxx made good use of the floor. Eventually though Tharkas managed to blast Patriot while the referee was distracted allowing Thraxx to use Immovable Object for the win.
17. In a war of attrition, Bloodline (19) edged Sly Drury with the Cetus Masterlock. This could have definitely gone either way as both guys had multiple chances to win but in the end, Bloodline hooked on the Masterlock and Drury was unable to escape as his shoulders were down on the mat a moment too long.
18. Desolation Factor demolished Lords of the Pack when Rack pinned Malkuth with Racked and Ruined. Malkuth tried a Big Cat Splash which Rack easily avoided. After that it was an X-Treme Slam, Demolition Factor and Racked and Ruined. Panther tried to make the save but Ruin pressed him to the floor while Rack scored the three.
19. Lord Nexus (99) edged Duke of Destruction with an abdominal stretch. This was mostly Duke actually but Nexus finally countered off a superplex attempt and eventually hooked on an abdominal stretch. Duke claimed after the match it should not have counted as he believed the referee should have tested his left arm not his right one.
20. Disaster edged Alpha Force by rolling him up. This was a big battle and both guys had many chances to win even though neither could hit his finisher. Finally, Alpha whipped Disaster into the turnbuckle and tried to hit a handspring elbow only for Disaster to slide out of the way and then hooked Alpha down and held him for the three count. The Gladiators all appeared and congratulated Disaster.

Serious action from start to finish... Really enjoyed the inclusion of a couple guys from the 30th Anniversary set - Especially the big win by harlequin-style Killer Queen... It was great to see Wolf circa 2131 take on his old foe, Bounty Hunter... Too bad that neither Vertigo or Wraith had a chance to face off against their old ally, Steele, in his new freakish persona... No shock that Rack & Ruin defeated Malkuth & Panther Warrior... But, I'm a little surprised that it was such a one sided encounter... What can be said about that superb main event? Disaster shows the meaning of Ultimate Gladiator by beating one of the biggest talents to ever step inside the ring... Thank you for sharing this TTX... Lots of fun!

Thanks as always, Pariah. Would have been fun but Vertigo just couldn't get on offense and Tricks finished him off before anything could happen. More fun on the way.

Some innovative matchups and I'm looking forward to round two... Disappointed that Anivar failed to advance... But, I'm pleased to see some of my favorite lower card characters moving on - Including The Betrayer, Cannibal and of course, Pit Viper...
Are you going to randomize the opponents for the next round as well?
Really fun stuff!

Most likely I'll just have them wrestle the opponent above/below them but I might change my mind. Yeah I was disappointed with Anivar losing as well as Swerve but hey, just gives me more ideas to book in the future.

Nth Degree got a stunning quick win with a top rope splash on Soulwatcher. Soulwatcher attempted a shoulder tackle only for Nth Degree to kick him in the midsection. From there Nth used a shoulder breaker, tossed him to the floor, press slammed him on the floor and then back into the ring. He climbed to the top and hit a big splash and Soulwatcher was too stunned to kick out.

Too cool that The Betrayer and Pit Viper both advanced... Hoping they both stay alive long enough to face off in the semifinals... A little surprised that Nitro managed to eliminate Ghena - Expected the monster of The Three to make it much closer to the end... And I'm also disappointed that Soulwatcher is gone - An interesting character that I want to bring to the Crossroads at some point...
Another fun round!

Tournament Matches Giant Azuma finally finished off Dreadnaught with Zensho. Dreadnaught tried to keep up but Azuma's size and power were just too much in the end as he kept getting up only for Azuma to knock him down again and again until Zensho finally took him down.
Nth Degree easily handled Faller with Two Heads Are Better. Faller gave it a go but Nth Degree was never on the defense as he pounded Faller in the ring and on the floor before hitting his finisher to win.

Lord Nexus upset Nitro with the Titan Drop. Nitro never recovered from an early missed Bad Vibrations. He followed up with a flying forearm that Nexus ducked.

Despite heeling it up early in the match, Nitro shook the hand of Nexus after the match.

Non Tournament Matches Covert Ops (Hector, Gatekeeper, Dead Ringer) beat Lance At-las and The Specialists when Gatekeeper pinned At-las following a leaping DDT.

Gatekeeper covered while Hector held off Shepard and Dead Ringer smashed Scorch allowing Gatekeeper to get the three count.
Endgame easily handled Bloodline following Endgame's Revenge (+4). Bloodline could not maintain a steady offense and eventually Endgame just kept battering him down until the Revenge was just too much in the end and Bloodline stayed down.
Taichi beat Velar with the Kneebar. This was a nice battle with Taichi managing to use her superior agility to get Velar down and then locking in the knee bar. Velar tried to escape but was unable to do so and her shoulders were counted down as Taichi took the victory.
