Some really exciting matchups... Watching Wolf and Nosfera tear each other apart is the highlight for me so far... Looking forward to what's next!

thx Pariah.
Spike fought off a game Battering Ram with the Megadestroyer. Ram nearly took an upset with the Battering Ram early but Spike held on and made a comeback finally wearing Ram down before using the Megadestroyer to gain the pinfall.
Lope held off Heracles with a missle dropkick. This was quite a battle as Heracles tried to overpower Lope and wear him down with Olympia but Lope's quick reflexes helped him avoid a sucker punch and from there he worked Heracles down before dropkicking him for the three.
End of Days forced Swarm to submit to a one armed hanging choke. End of Days hit a Behemoth Spear to start byt Swarm gave it a good run and nearly pulled off the upset a couple of times. Eventually, End of Days was just too powerful in the end holding Swarm up with the choke and forcing the AniMan to submit.
Lance At-las held off Burning Man with the Martian Manhandler. At-las seemed determined and Man couldn't keep his offense going. At-las finally caught him with the Nomad Knee Drop and then quickly hit the Manhandler for the three count as Man got his shoulder up one moment too late.

Chaos dropped Clinch with a piledriver. Clinch gave a good run but Chaos was just too strong. He picked up Clinch and dropped him with a perfect piledriver and the three count.
The Guardian held off Matador of M83 with a Tackle Off the Ropes. Matador nearly took this a couple of times but Guardian was just too powerful with his huge tackle.
Bishop Hell squeaked past Corporal Aegis with a rollup and the ropes for leverage. Aegis dominated the entire match until he whipped Bishop into the turnbuckle and charged. Bishop avoided the move and quickly rolled up Aegis using the ropes for additional leverage to win (Aegis rolled snake eyes)
Switchblade upset Bex with Blade of Retribution. Switchblade took an early beating but he managed to come back, and shocked Bex on the floor with a 450 splash to the floor before working him on the inside and hitting the Blade for the three count.

Oh, snap... Looks like The Guardian vs Chaos in the next round (unless you're randomizing the brackets each round)... Expect we'll probably see EoD make or close to the finals... Fun times!

It will be Chaos vs Guardian......should be a barnburner. EOD will be tough as always but Swarm did show some flaws...can anyone capitalize on them?
Endgame took a beating from Anarchy but finally won with the Ultima Leap. Anarchy was at a disadvantage but somehow kept pounding Endgame down. However, Endgame finally knocked Anarcy down and then hit the Ultima Leap for the pin.
Minister of War pinned Colossus following the Aethran Massacre. Minister and Colossus were evenly matched as they battled in close fashion. Minister however managed to knock Colossus for a loop with his Gladiator Bionic Elbow and followed up with Aethran Massacre to win.
Tauran made a huge comeback and beat Sly Drury with the Leg Hook Powerbomb. It looked like Drury had that match but he just didn't finish off Tauran. Tauran kept fighting back catching Sly off the ropes with a flying dropkick then clamping on the Tauran Victory Lock before using the Leg Hook Powerbomb to score the victory.
Fist upset Paganax with Armament. Paganax made a miscalculation trying to whip Fist into the turnbuckle and the rest of the match was Fist pounding down Paganax before using Armament twice to finally put the big man down for the three count.

Great action, Troy. I like the mix of wrestlers you have chosen to use so far. Especially loved that Tauran card.

2123 Tauran is my favorite Tauran as well. My only regret is the PP cards aren't digital because I'd have loved to have had Mensar and the new Pegasus for the tournament.

Sur demolished Ensor with Gift of the Gods. Ensor actually had a hot start including Eruption of Tharsis but Sur preservered and continued to work over Ensor until finally he clamped Gift of the Gods on an unconscious Ensor and the referee immediately called for the bell.
Code Enforcer (E) pinned Epoch following a guillotine leg drop. This was a very close matchup and Epoch nearly had the match but Enforcer got his foot on the rope at the last moment. Enforcer then made a comeback before finally hitting a big leg drop to get the pin.
Genocide put away Havoc with Corpus Genocide. This was a close battle and both had their moments but Genocide was just a bit too strong in the end as he dropped Havoc with Corpus Genocide.
Iron Hand finally overcame Archon with the Full Metal Slam. Archon was tough to break as Hand kept being countered, but Archon somehow could never land a finisher and Hand eventually managed to hit a Full Metal Slam after a couple earlier pin attempts and the Slam finished things off.

Ouch! My favorite Aethran already eliminated... Would have liked to see Havoc go further, but when Genocide starts gaining momentum... Look out!
Awesome comeback by Tauran to take out Sly... Him vs Fist should be fun...
Looking forward to more!

Thanks for the comment Pariah.
Aethran Overmaster squashed Max Shield with Reign of the Overmaster. It was all of a Gladiator Piledriver, Dominance and two Reign of the Overmasters and Shield was down for the three count.
Dreadnaught pinned Mayhem with the Guided Missile. This was another war and Mayhem did not want to go down. Even with the Guided Missile, Mayhem still almost kicked out in the end but Dreadnaught finally got the pin.
Eydilon put away Enigma with Mists of Eydilon. It was a wild battle yet again with Enigma looking like he might take the victory but in the end, Eydilon avoided a running clothesline into the turnbuckle, hit a big neckbreaker and then the Mists to win.
Kenji put away Darkest Justice with the Knee Bar. Darkest Justice got in some solid shots but Kenji was his usual powerful offensive self and he eventually wore DJ down before locking in the knee bar. DJ's shoulders were down on the mat for the three count giving Kenji the victory.
