- Road Dogg changed his usual in-ring patter to call this 'The Last Ride of the New Age Outlaws'. Rumors in the back stated that Billy Gunn was extremely reluctant to get back into the ring without his son.
- AJ Styles was wearing his Bullet Club gear, despite having joined Jericho's Inner Circle

Week 3 (Tag)
INNER CIRCLE def. Happy Fun Time**** (Walls of Jericho)
HOUSE OF TRUTH def. NWA Bronx Beatdown***** (DQ)
LIGHT MY FIRE* def. The Darkness* (Moonlight Drive)
NEW AGE OUTLAWS***** def. Young Bucks***** (DDT) best match - 1st half
INNER CIRCLE***** def. The Darkness** (Judas Effect)
HAPPY FUN TIME**** def. Light My Fire** (Cabanarama)
YOUNG BUCKS def. NWA Bronx Beatdown** (More Bang for Your Buck)
HOUSE OF TRUTH**** def. New Age Outlaws***** (Flying Headbutt)
Notes:
-Tyler Black really is chafing at 'The Exalted Ones' antics, not sure the team can co-exist through the season.
- Light My Fire was surprisingly effective.. Alex Shelley is just a consummate tag team wrestler.
- The New Age Outlaws got thrown in here as a lark, because I love me some Road Dogg promos (even when they're fake ones that only happen in the broadcast in my head).. but they're really good, even with Road Dogg's super boring move set. Why do guys that are great on the mic always have boring moves? (I also looking at you, Roddy Piper) I may just have to keep'em around... we'll see what happens.
- OTOH, the Young Bucks (even with me upgrading the cards some) are just not. I'm using the ones from the RoH intro set. (which are slightly better the the original Legends of the Future ones). Are the ones in the 'Celebration of Honor' set better? (that one isn't high on my list, but could get higher)
-AJ Styles is still ill at ease with Jack Hager around, but winning cures alot of things.
Standings after Week 3:
NWA Bronx Beatdown failed in the tag matches, leaving the Inner Circle and The House of Truth the clear front runners. Good workrate has put the Outlaws in 3rd, but that seems unlikely to hold. Everyone else is just in the pack.
House of Truth 16 pts (6-0, 2 bonus)
Inner Circle 14 pts (6-0)
New Age Outlaws 10 pts (3-3 3 bonus)
NWA Bronx Beatdown 5 pts (2-4 1 bonus)
Happy Fun Time 5 pts (2-4)
Light My Fire 5 pts (2-4)
Young Bucks 5 pts (1-5 2 bonus)
The Darkness 4 pts (2-4)

They’ve won a lot of matches for me, but they aren’t so unbeatable (coughRoadWarriorscough)* that I sort of know the outcome of the match before I roll it. * Just kidding about the Road Warriors. Mostly. Once I get around to introducing teams like the Rock ‘n’ Roll Express and the Midnight Express, I hope the field contracts a little. |

Week 4
AJ STYLES def. Tyler Black** (Styles Clashx3) ** Match of the night
ROAD DOGG def. Brodie Lee* (Pump Handle Slam)
CHRIS JERICHO def. Roderick Strong* (Walls of Jericho)
ALEX SHELLEY*** def. Colt Cabana (DQ)
BILLY GUNN def. Michael Elgin (Missed flying headbutt)
EDDIE KINGSTON def. Nick Jackson*** (Sliding D)
JOHN MORRISON def. Chuck Taylor***** (CO)
-----
Week 5 (CHALLENGE WEEK)
HOMICIDE def. AJ Styles (Piledriver)
CHRIS JERICHO def. Eddie Kingston (DQ)
TYLER BLACK** def. Road Dogg** (Phoenix Splash)
BRODIE LEE** def. Billy Gunn (Big Boot)
RODERICK STRONG*** def. Alex Shelley*** (Gibson Driver)
MICHAEL ELGIN* def. John Morrison* (Deadlift Powerbomb)
COLT CABANA***** def. Matt Jackson* (DQ)
NICK JACKSON***** def. Chuck Taylor (450 Splash)
Notes:
-The match between old friends Alex Shelley and Roderick Strong was awesome.. one for the ages.
-The Darkness perhaps hit a low point with Mr. Brodie losing a singles match to Road Dogg, but they came back strong for challenge week... if the two
can work together, they may be able to get somewhere.
-the NWA team has the same issue... they've done will, but failed last tag team card, they'll have to improve there to be a factor.
-The Bucks finally got a win, but really took a beating to do it...they have seemed outclassed so far in their attempts to fight solo
- AJ continues to refuse to wear Inner Circle gear, and had a bit of an argument with Jericho after his loss (the 1st one the team sustained). Questions they can stay on the same page long enough to stay ahead of the much more unified House of Truth abound.
Standings through Week 5:
Inner Circle 21 Points (9-1)
House of Truth 20 points (8-2)
New Age Outlaws 14 Points (5-5)
NWA Bronx Beatdown 11 points (5-5)

The Darkness 9 points (4-6)
Happy Fun Time 7 points (3-7)
Young Bucks 7 Points (2-8)

HOUSE OF TRUTH def. Inner Circle** (Spinning Sitout Powerbomb)
HAPPY FUN TIME*** def. Young Bucks***** (Awful Waffle x2)
LIGHT MY FIRE def. The Darkness (DQ)
NEW Bronx Beatdown** def. New Age Outlaws (DQ)
Notes:
-The Bucks have shifted into a higher gear... outting out to amazing matches, and winning one of them.. they'll need to carry through the momentum to keep out of the basement though.
-Tough week for the Inner Circle... AJ Styles seems to have had enough of JEricho... having a botched save by Jake Hager cost them a match didn't help as the House of Truth takes over the top spot.
-Homicide has gone to his ghetto fork more and more often, resulting in another loss, but a win in the 2nd match, as he was able to toss it to Road Dogg and draw the DQ win.
Standings Through Week 6:
House of Truth 26 points (10-2)
Inner Circle 22 Points (9-3)
