Commentary: Darin Corbin & Effy
PART TWO
ARIK CANNON & KILLER KELLY def. Andrew Everett & Deonna Purrazzo. ***1/2
- Kelly pinned Purrazzo after a VALE DA MORTE. <Tokens: Cannon 2, Kelly 1 - Everett 5, Purrazzo 1>
- This back and forth exchange turned savage when the fight spilled out to the floor. Everett tried to take a shortcut by smashing Kelly with a steel chair, but Cannon sent him crashing into the rails and left him lying in a bloody heap.
ACE AUSTIN def. Karl Fredericks, Rohit Raju, Starboy Charlie, Daniel Garcia and Lee Moriarty in a Six Pack Elimination match. ****
- Order of elimination:
1. Moriarty <3 tokens> pinned by Austin after an Ace of Spades.
2. Garcia <4 tokens> pinned by Fredericks after a MANIFEST DESTINY.
3. Charlie <2 tokens> pinned by Raju after a Dragon Stomp.
4. Raju <3 tokens> tapped out by Fredericks with a SINGLE LEG CRAB.
5. Fredericks <5 tokens> pinned by Austin <5 tokens / DQ warning> after THE FOLD.
- The crowd was somewhat shocked when Austin used sly tactics to ensure that Moriarty, his former tag team partner, was the first man ousted from this contest.
- Effy conducted a post-match interview with Garcia. He was furious, claiming that Fredericks cheated in order to eliminate him from the contest. He challenged Fredericks to a showdown on the next card. Fredericks promptly accepted!
EDITH SURREAL def. Dark Sheik. *1/2
- Surreal tapped out Sheik with a VENUS DE MILO. <Tokens: Sheik 1>
- Surreal tried to ambush her former tag team partner while the introductions were taking place, but her plan backfired! Sheik saw her coming and backed her into a corner with a series of rapid fire kicks. <Sheik started on Level 2 Offense.>
- Neither woman was able to maintain control for a considerable length of time as one reversal led to another, resulting in a brutal finish. The crowd did not seem happy about bearing witness to the continued erosion of this notable friendship.
KEVIN BLACKWOOD & LIO RUSH def. Violent By Design (Alan Angels & Madman Fulton w/ Eric Young) via DQ. *1/2
- Angels was disqualified <outside interference> when Young pulled the referee out to the floor to prevent Blackwood from pinning Angels after a DIVING DOUBLE STOMP. <Tokens: Angels 1, Fulton 1>
- Effy conducted a prematch interview with Blackwood & Rush. They spoke about Violent By Design attempting to interfere during their previous match for the IPW Midwest Elite Championship while offering assurances they were currently on the same page.
- There was no apparent friction between Blackwood & Rush as they fucntioned like a cohesive unit. Young was a dangerous presence at ringside, but was unable to help secure a victory for his allies.
JOSH ALEXANDER def. Mance Warner. **
- Alexander pinned Warner after a C4 SPIKE. <Tokens: Warner 5>
- Before Alexander had a chance to climb into the ring, Warner jumped him from behind and ran him into the rails! The referee convinced Warner to bring his opponent into the ring, so the contest could officially begin. <Warner started on Level 3 Offense.>
- Warner dramatically underestimated Alexander's willingness to get his hands dirty. As soon as the opportunity presented itself, Alexander took the fight back out to the floor. Following a vicious assault, Warner was bleeding and had difficulty keeping his balance. Warner seemed to discover some newfound respect for Alexander by the conclusion of the explosive exchange and offered to shake hands after the bell. Alexander accepted the gesture.
