APW Ep6
Commissioner Nigel McGuinness starts the show on the ramp. He says in 2 weeks the regular show will be replaced with a supershow, the main event will be a cage match for the title between champion Jay Lethal and the winner of tonight’s triple threat. He also says that this show will open with a rematch from last week between Lio Rush and Greg Valentine, and if Rush wins this time he’ll take Valentines spot on the roster!
Lio Rush vs Greg Valentine Valentine is all business as he heads to the ring knowing his job is on the line. Rush speeds down the ramp and straight into an attack on The Hammer, which doesn’t let up until Greg manages to roll out the ring and then sidestep Lio as he dives through the ropes. From there Greg takes over until they’re back in the ring and the pair fight tooth and nail to a time limit draw. The crowd let out a boo when time is called, but applaud the guys for a great match! Winner - Time limit draw
Johnny Gargano vs Kyle O’Reilly Michael Bennett joins the commentary crew at ringside for this one, which leaves Kyle distracted. Aside from a few flurries of offence, this match is all Gargano as he picks up a pretty easy win, while Bennett mocks Kyle’s singles career on commentary. Winner - Johnny Gargano
Kings of Wrestling vs AJ Styles & Will Ospreay Styles and Ospreay start off well but a few miscommunications lead to the KOW getting the upper hand. Once the Kings got rolling on Styles, Will threw his hands up and walked off, leaving AJ to fight alone. Styles battles on for a while but couldn’t handle them both, and Hero picked up the win after a KRS1. Winner - Kings of Wrestling
As Hero and Castagnoli make their way up the ramp, Roderick Strong heads down for the main event. Claudio blocks his way and they start arguing when Hero hits a KO elbow on Strong from behind. They start putting the boots in when Tony Nese runs out and joins them, only for the Kings to turn on him and deliver a Ricola bomb on the ramp. Adam Cole is seen poking his head out from behind the curtain, laughing, and disappearing again. The show goes off air as security separate Hero and Claudio from the others.

Rush and Valentine seem to have a nice little feud going. Big win for Johnny Wrestling and the Kings are just too much.

APW Ep7
The show again opens with Commissioner Nigel McGuinness who tells the crowd that at next weeks supershow there will be a 3rd and final meeting between Lio Rush and Greg Valentine for the roster spot, as well as a 2 out of 3 falls match to finally settle things between AJ Styles and Will Ospreay. The winner of that match will earn a future title opportunity. And finally, last weeks main event was ruined by the Kings of Wrestling so we don’t have a number 1 contender for next week. Instead the cage match will be replaced with an Elimination chamber! Jay Lethal will be the final entrant as he is champion, Adam Cole, Tony Nese and Roderick Strong will be 3 of the other competitors. The final 2 will be decided tonight. Since the Kings of Wrestling caused this whole incident, they will face each other tonight with the winner entering the chamber. Finally, Johnny Gargano and Adam Page have both picked up impressive wins lately so they’ll fight tonight to decide which one will be entered into next weeks Elimination chamber. Phew! Enjoy the show!
Michael Bennett vs Bobby Fish Fish requested this match to stand up for ReDRagon after Bennett’s comment last week. Unfortunately for Fish, Mike dominates the match, winning with a handful of tights after being in control for the duration. Winner - Michael Bennett As soon as the match is over, the Young Bucks are ready with double superkicks for Bennett and Fish, then grab chairs and deliver a brutal beat down, leaving both men to be helped away by medical staff.
Elimination chamber qualifying match - Johnny Gargano vs Adam Page Adam Page maintains his recent bad mood and storms the ring on fire, beating Gargano all around the ring, to the outside, smashing him into the barricade and ring post. Gargano doesn’t seem to have a chance until Sabin’s music hit and everyone turns to the entrance way, giving Gargano a moment to grab a chair and deliver a nasty shot to Page before rolling him into the ring so a confused ref can make the 3 count. Gargano races to the back before Page can recover! Winner - Johnny Gargano
War Machine vs Canadian Wrecking crew As expected from both teams, this is a rough, hard hitting match, that’s eventually won by War machine Winner - War machine
Elimination chamber qualifying match - Chris Hero vs Claudio Castagnoli The tag team partners are very reluctant at first, using a lot of holds and feeling each other out. Claudio gets Hero into a pin and after Hero kicks out he shoves Claudio. CC responds with a Ricola bomb for a surprise win!! Winner - Claudio Castagnoli Hero is shocked for a moment and looks angry, but Claudio helps him up and Hero pats him on the back.

APW Elimination chamber supercard
2 out of 3 falls match - AJ Styles vs Will Ospreay AJ offers Ospreay a handshake to start the match but Will refuses it. As soon as the bell rings Ospreay jumps Styles as he takes his jacket off, beating Styles and throwing him around the ring, dumping him to the outside and ramming his head into the turnbuckle and announce desk. He lays an almost unconscious AJ Styles across the announce desk and then lives up to his Aerial Assassin moniker when he flies from the top turnbuckle with a corkscrew press and drives Styles through the table. Will throws Styles back into the ring for a 3 count. After a brief rest period where the ref checks that AJ can continue, the match is back on. Ospreay now has a cocky swagger and plays to the crowd while slapping AJ around, but Styles fires back and levels Will with a big clothesline. The 2 trade blows and bombs for a while, the crowd cheering every hit by Styles and booing Ospreay. AJ gets the better of Ospreay and locks in the Calf Killer for an almost immediate tapout. The ref checks on Ospreay who is rolling in pain clutching his leg while Styles paces the ring looking concerned. When the ref goes to ask for medical aid AJ checks on Ospreay but receives a low blow for his troubles! Will jumps his feet and hits an Os cutter on Styles to get the 3 count and win the match. Winner - Will Ospreay As Will leaves the ring to a chorus of boos, he looks conflicted. He heads back to AJ and after a moments hesitation pulls Styles to his feet and offers him his hand. AJ looks confused and looks to the crowd for support, then takes Will’s hand. They shake, then Styles pulls him in for a hug and pats him on the back. The pair walk up the ramp together talking about the match with Will apologising.
The Young Bucks vs The Kingdom Nick and Matt are in the ring acting like asses when Matt Taven comes out alone. He explains that after last weeks attack, Michael Bennett is unable to compete. The Bucks laugh and put one arm behind their back, gesturing for Taven to come and fight. Taven goes on to say that he isn’t the only one missing a partner tonight, as Kyle O’Reilly comes out! The 2 look at each other and nod, then storm the ring, putting a hurting on the Bucks and dumping them out of the ring as the crowd cheers them on. The makeshift team have control for a while but soon a few lapses in teamwork let the Young Bucks fight back and start dominating with their double teams. Kyle takes the brunt of it and crawls to Taven for a tag, it looks for a moment like Taven is considering whether to take the tag, but he shrugs and puts his arm out to tag in. It isn’t enough however and he soon falls to the Meltzer driver. Winner - The Young Bucks Matt Jackson grabs a mic and says they need some tag titles to make it worth beating up these losers, then superkick both members of the losing team.
Lio Rush vs Greg Valentine The Hammer starts off with some heavy hits, Rush dodges around him and stings as much as he can, but Valentine is putting a beating on Lio. When Greg misses a big charge in the corner Rush manages to take control and unleashes a flurry of offence including several finisher, to score the win and take Greg Valentine’s spot on the roster. Winner - Lio Rush As Lio celebrates his win, Marty Scurll slides into the ring behind him and rams Rush into the turnbuckle, then locks in a Chickenwing.
APW Championship Elimination chamber match - Tony Nese And Johnny Gargano start the match, Nese using his power to dominate Gargano, almost eliminating him out of the gate with a Deadlift German Suplex. Gargano rolls to the outside and when Nese follows, Johnny grabs his trunks and pulls Nese face first into the chain walls. The next few moments are a blur for Nese as he gets superkicked over the rope back into the ring, takes a spear through the rope, and taps out to the Gargano escape just as Roderick Strong’s pod opens. Tony Nese is eliminated Roderick Strong spends the whole time beating Gargano pillar to post, putting on a clinic. Gargano barely seems conscious but still keeps kicking out. Claudio Castagnoli enters next, he hits a Ricola bomb on Gargano and then lifts him up for Strong to hit a Sick kick to put Gargano down for good. Johnny Gargano is eliminated Roderick and Claudio trade hard hits but neither man can gain control, the fight spills out onto the steel floor and both men get rammed into the walls. When the next pod opens Roderick looks around which gives CC an opening to hit a Ricola bomb on the steel. Adam Cole steps out of his pod, but gestures for Claudio to pin Strong. After he’s been rolled into the ring and covered though, Roddy kicks out. Cole gestures for Claudio to hit him again but Castagnoli instead runs after Cole and catches him after Adam tries to climb up the wall to escape. Claudio smashes Cole’s face into the chamber but Roddy has time to recover and hits an Olympic slam on Claudio on the steel floor. The 3 men fight back into the ring, Cole hits a Panama sunrise on Strong but he kicks out again. Jay Lethal enters next and races into the ring, ducks a big clothesline by Claudio and bounces off the rope to score a Lethal injection, but it’s not enough to put the big man away. Adam Cole tries to blindside Lethal but Jay is one step ahead of him, as the two have a stare down Claudio gets back to hit feet and Ricola bombs them one after the other! Strong tries to jump off the top turnbuckle with a double axe handle but leaps right into a Swiss death uppercut. Claudio picks up up and hits another, but Strong no sells it, roars at CC and unloads a volley of huge strikes, putting him down with a Sick kick. Jay Lethal is right there though to ram Strong into the ring post then hit a Lethal combination to pin him. Rockerick Strong is eliminated Lethal gets up and turns around into a big Ricola bomb from Claudio, and can’t kick out. Jay Lethal is eliminated Claudio is exhausted and drops to one knee, but Cole is ready for him and jumps off the rope for a Panama sunrise to pick Claudio away. Claudio Castagnoli is eliminated Winner - Adam Cole Cole grabs his new APW championship title and falls to his knees in the ring, as Will Ospreay stands at the top of the ramp slowly clapping.

APW Ep8
Adam Cole is in the ring holding his new APW title, he wonders aloud what’s next for the Panama playboy since he’s beaten the top 5 guys in the company and earned his proper place. Jay Lethal storms the ring with a microphone, stops face to face with Cole and looks like he’s going to speak, but drops the mic and batters Cole! He beats up Cole and turns to the ropes for a Lethal injection, but as he bounces back, The Young Bucks slide into the ring and deliver a double superkick to the back of Lethal’s head. Cole recovers and Too sweets the Bucks, then sets up a Panama sunrise as Lethal tries to get back to his feet. Cole stands over the prone Lethal and holds his title high as the Bucks point to him NWO style, then heads to the back leaving the Bucks in the ring for their next match.
The Young Bucks vs The Kingdom The Bucks use their usual high flying double teams, but Bennett hits enough strong moves to stop them taking much of a lead. The fight spills to the outside and ReDRagon turn up at ringside to put a beating on both teams. Winner - No contest
Marty Scurll comes to the ring next and says that it wasn’t personal when he attacked Lio Rush last week, he’d just been lost in the shuffle and needed to get some eyes on him. Rush comes out and says let’s get some more eyes on me beating you up!
Marty Scurll vs Lio Rush As Rush turns to put his jacket away, Scurll hits him in the back with his umbrella, then a big powerbomb and locks in a Chickenwing for a quick, dominant victory! Winner - Marty Scurll
Roderick Strong vs Claudio Castagnoli Roddy asked for this match after everyone said Claudio was the star of the Elimination chamber last week and wants to show everyone who the real star is. This is a hard hitting match with both men throwing bombs, Roddy kicks out of several Ricola bombs and Castagnoli takes a whole lot of backbreakers. Roddy finally ends it with a barrage of Sick kicks. Winner - Roderick Strong

APW Ep9
Canadian Wrecking Crew vs War Machine As expected, this opening contest was a brutal, hard hitting match from 4 no-nonsense tough guys. The crowd were wincing with every hard chop and slap. After 20 minutes, Rowe managed to get the pin on Chris, though his foot was under the rope. Winner - War Machine Nigel McGuinness comes out afterwards to congratulate both teams on a great match, and says that these teams deserve something to fight for so next week will be the start of a tournament for the new Tag team titles! Though there will be guest teams from outside the company who have all agreed to speculative contracts should they win the belts.
Will Ospreay vs Adam Page Before the match Ospreay reminds everyone that he’s gunning for Cole’s title and has a shot later down the line! This is a great technical match, Page is in the same bad mood he’s been in since the start of APW and hits some big power moves, but Ospreay is quick enough to dodge or counter most of them, struggling to stay one step ahead. They go move-for-move when Chris Sabin jumps up onto the apron. Page turns to try and punch him off, but Sabin jumps up to the top rope, springboards over Page and hits a big dropkick on Ospreay, leading to the DQ. Winner - Will Ospreay Sabin runs to the back, with Page in hot pursuit!
Jay Lethal vs Johnny Gargano Lethal is visibly angry heading into this match, but still shakes Gargano’s hand before the match. Johnny Wrestling lives up to his name early on, getting the better of every exchange with a distracted Lethal. Gargano throws Jay out of the ring and goes for a dive, but Lethal sidesteps so Gargano crashes into the barrier. Lethal grabs him and immediately starts throwing him around into the barrier, ring posts and over the announce desk, then climbs back into the ring for a count out victory. Winner - Jay Lethal Adam Cole appears at the top of the ramp and says that he’s going to put the title on the line next week!

Kyle leans in to add ‘and that’s Undisputed’.

Cole gets free and hits some big moves back, but Sabre kicks out of everything he has, including several Florida keys. Zack is back on the attack and hurting Cole with soccer kicks when Adam rolls to the side and manages to hit a superkick to the back of the head. He follows up with a Panama sunrise to finally get the win (9 tokens on Zack!). Winner - Adam Cole After the match Cole starts stomping on Sabre and throws him into the turnbuckle.
