THE FALLEN vs. PRIMEVAL DESTRUCTION- Warfare pummeled Jackyll; Once Hybrid entered the ring, The Fallen isolated him & broke him down. In & out they tagged until Krypt finished the Champ with Face Smothering; Warfare makes the save…a stomp to the spine; Warfare makes the save again…Face Smothering…1…2…3.

Image shifts to the Ventross speaking privately with Rankor.Ventross: "Nicodemus is proving more industrious than I gave him credit for."
Rankor: "He is a Ravager Ancient Ventross."
Ventross: "The Mothership must be ready for
IMMOLATION; that is the next time that Nicodemus will return. A nullifier activated once he is in the ring will prevent any use of technology to escape afterwards; we will have him then!"
Rankor: “Only 15 days remain Ventross. Are we assured that Nicodemus will be there?”
Ventross: "I’m certain he will be there. I’ve arranged for him to receive a shot at the
ESSENCE.”

Image shifts to Godsend & Nightmare; Godsend is ranting again.Godsend: "That crafty beast found another way to escape me!”
Nightmare: "..."
Godsend: "His last psychological review indicated his intelligence is growing.”
Nightmare: "..."
Godsend: "Do not give me excuses! I am a Lord of the Lower Realms! The
ESSENCE belongs to me!”
Nightmare: "..."
Godsend: "I know, the sludge beast from Primus was dragging it around the last time we saw it.”
Nightmare: "..."
Godsend’s eyes flash & his hand darts out like a viper & slaps Nightmare across the face.Godsend: "Do not make light of our situation shadow mage. Your existence in this realm is directly tied to me. If I am banished by Vallah; you won’t be far behind me. Go, find your partner & bring me the Tag
ESSENCE.”
THE SPECIALISTS vs. HELLRAISERS- Nightmare fought both opponents for the entire match; relentlessly trying to destroy both men with Demon Dreamscapes & blasts of shadow mist. When Shepard finally got a reversal, Nightmare turned it right back around & hit

Image shifts to the back where we see Paganax praising The Fallen on their win when Primeval Destruction walk past.Paganax (to Hybrid): "Son of Primus…”
Warfare continues on but Paganax catches the arm of Hybrid & turns him.Paganax: "Son of Primus, I applaud your efforts against my Fallen. I know we have been enemies in the past but with the fall of our beloved Primus a change has come about me. I do not seek to take the
ESSENCE from you, only to embrace you as a Son of Primus.”
Paganax embraces Hybrid; who just stands there limply & allows it.Paganax: "I am watching you my Son. It is my wish that you join your brothers
(he indicates The Fallen) & fight at our side against the enemies of Primus.”
Hybrid’s ESSENCE enhanced eyes look up at Paganax & a feral smile slowly spreads across his face.SHOCK SYNDICATE vs. THE BROTHERS OAKEN- Multiple Shocks to the System &
COUPES DE GRACE made this a very physical match. The Oakens looked ready to finish the match but Donk missed a critical deathjump & took an explosive clothesline before the 4th Shock to the System put him away.”
