MATCH ONE
Posted Image VS. Posted Image

The Sultan of Bang Style was quick off the bell, looking to make a quick impact against Qoya. With some big scalps already under his belt, Boaz was confident about his chances of adding another, not once looking like the underdog he was. Danielle was quick, however, and Boaz struggled against her, Vasquez running rings about him in the opening showing off her amazing agility, frustrating Boaz no end as he struggled to mount any significant offense against her. After Danielle’s high speed hit and run tactics did their work some, she came off the ropes behind Boaz with a Heavy Hitter (Tilt-a-Whirl DDT), and Boaz finally had a chance to seize control, catching Danielle as she swung around him, falling forward and throwing her into the middle turnbuckle with a DisAstorpiece (Lawn Dart)! With Danielle dazed from the impact, The Champs got to work to try and capitalise, using his budding technical abilities to slow the match down to his pace, keeping Danielle locked in place with a range of punishing holds, transitioning from lock to lock, before transitioning into the Astor Dust DDT (Hammerlock Legsweep DDT)! He rolled Dani over, going for the pin, but only got a two!

Boaz, not wanting to let the advantage he’d stolen from Danielle slip away, kept on her, using his weight advantage to try and keep her under control, using some heavy slams to keep her under control, like his Sitout Suplex Slam and his Reverse Arm-Trap DDT to drive the air, and the fight, out of Danielle. Keeping on her, he dragged her back up, hooking both arms behind her back, before hauling her up and over with a Release Tiger Suplex… only for Danielle to flip out! Boaz was quick to his feet, allowing himself a brief moment to pose for the Chinese crowd… only to be surprised as Danielle ran up, and this time managed to connect with the Heavy Hitter! Wasting no time, she was quick up the ropes, hitting a Split-Legged Moonsault, went for the cover… but the resilient Boaz kicked out at one and a half! Kennedy came up fighting, not willing to let the opportunity slip from his fingers, but Danielle was quicker, landing a Standing Side Kick to break his assault, before following up with rapid fire strikes to keep him off balance. Frustrated, Boaz powered through the blows, launching a counter offense, but his attempt at a European Uppercut to put the exclamation point on things was quickly thwarted as Danielle leapt up and caught him with Kisses (Leaping Reverse STO)!

Boaz was quick to roll free, dazed, but aware enough to fight off the pin. Danielle didn’t want to give him any chance to breathe, quickly running the ropes about the turnbuckle, leaping off and looking for a Qoya (Turnbuckle Run Tornado DDT), BUT BOAZ CAUGHT HER OUT OF THE AIR WITH A EUROPEAN UPPERCUT! The crowd gasped as Danielle staggered back, shocked by Boaz’s lightning fast reactions! Dazed, Danielle ran straight back in, but Boaz sidestepped, sending her running to the opposite ropes… before catching her on the return with a Pop-Up, the BANGerang (Pop-Up Knee Strike to opponent’s head) in sight… only for Danielle to swing her legs up in the air, hooking them around a shocked Boaz’s neck, before bringing him crashing to the mat with The Peru Passion (Head Smash Huracanrana)! Hooking the legs and holding the Rana pin, Danielle finally got the three count!

MATCH TWO
Posted Image VS. Posted Image

What happened here was a back and forth showcase between two incredibly well matched competitors. The back and forth between them went throughout the entire match, every strike from Jackson met with a counter from the former member of the Four Kings, every hold from Don God met with a reversal from the Irish Superman. The back and forth continued, Don God landing a Sole Patrol (Running Boot to a kneeling opponent), Jackson a Blue Blur (Running Single Leg Dropkick), but it wasn’t enough either way, both men proving too resilient!

Don God was the first to falter, his attack getting sloppy as his frustrations built, allowing Jax to be the first to get a real impact, a Godfall (Vertical Suplex Lift to Knee Strike to opponent’s face) rattling Don, allowing Jackson to get a nearfall! Smelling blood in the water, Jackson went on the attack, looking to land his big moves quickly to further put the wedge into Don’s exposed cracks, managing to land not only a Jax-El (540 Elbow) but also a Man Of Tomorrow (Frog Splash), but neither got the fall! It was apparent Don God was beginning to wear, however, and he came in with one last final blitzkrieg of assault, looking to turn things around! A big punching combo managed to penetrate Jackson’s defences, allowing Don God to follow up with a Russian Legsweep, dropping Jax to the mat. Knowing he’d need to put the hurt on, Don God went for The Serpent (Arm-Trap Triangle Choke), but Jax was ready, wriggling free… and countering, spinning Don God over and locking in a Smallville (Omoplata/Scissored Armbar Combination)! Trapped in the middle of the ring, and still hurting from the big strikes, Don God found himself forced to tap out!

MATCH THREE
Posted Image VS. Posted Image

The two friends shook hands before starting to circle. Evangelista seemed to want to go into a lock-up, but Molly had other ideas, keeping distant and staying mobile. She danced round Evangelista and threw some teasing kicks to see how the Filipina-Englishwoman would react. Despite closer proximity favouring her, Evangelista stayed back, willing to wait for Molly to make the first serious move. Reid obliged her by doing exactly that, rocketing forward with not just one axe kick but a whole series of high kicks from it, pressing forward at her famous lightning speed. Evangelista's equally celebrated reflexes came into play, as they were the only thing that let her dodge Molly's vicious combo. But Molly stayed on the offensive, determined to set this match to her own pace. Again, she kicked at Evangelista, and again, Evangelista dodged it - but Molly was feinting and she swept Evangelista's leg out from under her! Molly stuck to her game plan, and instead of setting upon the technician, backed away for another strike when Evangelista was most vulnerable. That turned out to be when she kipped up; Molly had it scouted and caught her with a spinning roundhouse! The impact knocked Evangelista for six but she didn't drop... or at least, not until after Molly snapped her down with That's Using Your Face! (Double Knee Facebreaker).

She couldn't get the cover off that though, and on her second attempt Evangelista rolled her over looking for a side headlock. Molly used her considerable height advantage to gain enough leverage to escape, and as Evangelista tried to push up to her feet, Molly found a basement dropkick to send her back down. Reid went back to her hit and run strategy, and it continued to pay off for her for a while, until Evangelista ducked a high kick and rolled Reid into a schoolgirl! Molly powered out right on the two count, but it marked a huge shift in the match as Evangelista took control, using submissions and takeovers to grind Molly down to a crawl. Molly desperately tried to pick the pace back up, but Evangelista had a way to stymie every trick, including countering a spinning backfist attempt into a wrist-clutch exploder suplex for a very near fall, and catching a Stay Down! (Flying Superman Punch) and muscling Molly down into a standing keylock. Reid's escape from the latter was to hook an ankle around Leanne's own and send them both crashing to the canvas; pain ricocheted through Reid's arm, but it still bought her the separation she'd been looking for.

As the match moved into its endgame it was still either woman’s bout to lose. Molly’s speed was starting to flag, but similarly Evangelista was beginning to tire, her technique losing some of it’s form. Opening Evangelista up with a wild flurry of blows, she managed to sending Evangelista stumbling with an Enzuigiri, before following straight up with a Molly Kick (Superkick), only for Evangelista to sidestep the kick! She managed to catch Molly in an Inverted Facelock, and with Reid trapped unleashed her own flurry of strikes to her extended chest! She twirled her round, looking for the Battlegrounds Uppercut (Head-Hold European Uppercut), but this time it was Molly ready with the reversal, shoving Evangelista into the ropes hard as she spun for the blow! Evangelista staggered, and Molly charged, going all or nothing as she went for The Aaron Donald (Spear)... only for Evangelista to spin up as Molly went off of he feet, catch her across the chest as she lifted Molly up, showing an amazing feet of strength as Molly’s legs swung under her, with Evangelista reversing the move into the Headbreaker (Uranage dropped to knee to back of opponent’s head)! Molly fell to the floor limp, Evangelista quickly following, the move draining the last of her fight from her, but just being enough to earn the three!

MAIN EVENT
Posted Image VS. Posted Image

Emilio out of the gate seemed annoyed with Kane’s arrogant trash talking, he shot the ropes and Kane dipped under the lariat attempt with a raucous laugh, he was far less amused as Vialpando came back on the rebound and smashed him to the mat with a Kotaro Krusher! Christian evaded the float over pin attempt after Emilio scrambled to catch him, he popped up to his feet and let loose an impressive stream of cussing that seemed to impress some in attendance. Emilio waved a finger at him and then the fight was on! Neither was giving much ground in the center of the ring, Kane finally caught a break and hauled Vialpando up for an impressive stalling suplex! He kept Emilio grounded for a bit on the mat with a variety of holds, a chinlock that had the referee checking for a choke, but Kane was keeping on the up and up. A frustrated shout came out of Vialpando before he broke free and rocketed up to his feet, fired up. He caught the rising Kane with a high knee right to the face that was followed with a beautiful standing moonsault that netted him the first pin attempt of the match, but Kane kicked out at two.

Christian swore again as he got up, and a quick throat jab had momentum shift his way as Emilio gasped for breath, Kane shot the ropes and came back with a hard Busaiku Knee kick! Vialpando collapsed on the mat, Christian dropped to cover but the resilient representative of the Dominican Republic rolled his shoulder up at the cusp of three! Christian snarled and yanked him up to his feet, going to pull him up for another suplex, but Emilio slipped the hold and dropped behind him and pulled him over for a Tiger suplex instead! The fans gave a cheer as Kane rolled up and jumped at Vialpando with a classic Lou Thesz Press, Emilio doing his best to cover up from the rapid spate of punches before Kane released him and faded back, Emilio got to his hands and knees and was smashed with a lionsault, flipped over for a pin but he kicked out at barely one! A second wind came into effect as Vialpando fought off Kane and dropped him with a Blue Thunder bomb! The two scrambled on the mat, Vialpando cradle pinning Kane and stacking his weight up on his neck but Christian still kicked out at two and caught him with a schoolboy with a generous handful of ‘tights’ as a receipt! Emilio was livid as he kicked out and the pair went forehead to forehead in the middle of the ring talking trash!

A forearm shot from Vialpando broke the tableau and he came back off the ropes with a lionsault of his own that had Kane reeling as he came to his feet and vulnerable to Emilio’s stalking attack, he dropped Christian hard with another Kotaru Krusher and set him up before he rushed to the top turnbuckle and came off with the Deseando Astro (Corkscrew Shooting Star Press), getting gasps of delight from the crowd but they turned to gasps of sympathy as at the last second Kane rolled out of the way, saving the match for himself but causing Emilio to crash and burn on the mat! Christian went for a lazy pin, failing to hook the leg and the fans freaked with cheers as he kicked out at two! Kane exhaled in a huff and hit him with an elbow to keep him docile and this time he went for a lateral press pin, hooking the far leg but Emilio still kicked out at two! Kane went up to his feet and held up three to the referee, the referee shook his head and confirmed it was a two! Kane raked his hands through his hair with immediate frustration, yelling that he expected a higher class of official at such an event!

His antics had the fans booing and he turned to stomp at the downed Emilio in retaliation for their behavior only to have his eyes shoot wide open as Vialpando wasn’t there! He appeared rapidly though and took Kane right to the mat with a wild springboard DDT, the flip getting the fans cheering him again! Christian lay still and Vialpando rolled him to his back, going for the pin but Kane kicked out at two and three quarters! Emilio didn’t question the referee, but he let out a huge breath, clearly wondering what it would take to put the unusually focused Kane away! He started to rise to his feet only to fall victim to a drop toe hold that had him bouncing his neck off the second strand of the ropes! He fell back and Christian was there, fired up as he grappled Vialpando into the Canadian Maple Leaf (Modified Inverted Reverse Figure-Four Leglock)! Emilio yelled out and fought to get free, but Kane had him in no man’s land, and he had no choice but to tap after he realized he was stuck!
