MATCH ONE
Lowri Moss (Wales) vs. Markus FK (Switzerland)

Markus took control early in this bout, the Swiss Powerhouse doing what he does best... which in this case happened to be tossing around 140lbs Welsh girls like they're nothing. Lowri kept coming back, but was constantly on the back foot, FK dominating her throughout. Almost cockily he went for an early Frei Train (Running Lariat), only for Lowri to duck and return fire with a Slice Of Heaven (Springboard Enzuigiri), her first real offence. She mounted a comeback, but made an error in judgement with a Diving Crossbody that Markus effortlessly turned into a Fallaway Slam. Cue a few more minutes of Swiss dominance, eventually whipping Lowri hard into the corner. Markus looked to follow up with a Running Corner Clothesline, but Lowri exploded out of the corner with a Breuddwydion Melys (Superkick), catching Markus square under the chin, and flattening him! She wasted no time in folding him up with a Jackknife Pin... and getting the 3!

Winner: Lowri Moss


MATCH TWO
Jade Malling (Trinidad & Tobago) vs. Lyza Reyes (Costa Rica)

The bout was surprisingly even. Jade had the slight edge in weight and power, Lyza with the slight edge in speed and agility. Regardless, the two women put on a hell of a show for the Panamanian crowd, full of counters, reversals, and plenty of near falls for both competitors. Jade, however, managed to chip in an advantage, and solidified it with a solid Hurricane Jade (Leaping Tornado Armdrag). This managed to give her a run of solid offense, but Lyza's agility managed to bring her back from the edge. She came off the top with a Dreambodycatcher (Diving Crossbody), only for Jade to dodge it with a Breakdance Matrix type evasion, planting one hand on the mat and flipping over with a One Handed Handspring Moonsault type affair on the freshly grounded Lyza! Jade quickly went up top herself, and went for the Jadestorm (Senton Bomb), but Lyza rolled clear! She ran the ropes whilst Jade forced herself up... and Lyza managed to catch her with The Space Age (Tilt-a-Whirl DDT) for the hard fought victory!

Winner: Lyza Reyes


MATCH THREE
Kai Victorino (Tonga) vs. Kenzie Rowe (Canada)

Well if ever there was a mismatch in size it was this match between the petite Canadian and the stocky Tongan. Much like the little guy in a fighting game, Kenzie's strategy relied on the dual principles of hit often, and don't get hit. She certainly had little issues with the first, and for the longest time did fine with the second... until Kai managed the catch her out of the air, and transition her into a huge Bear Hug! He commenced with the ragdolling, even running her into the corner post to drive the air from her, but she refused to give in. Slowly though, she started to fade. As her head began to droop, she said something barely audible to Kai. He told her to repeat it... she asked him to come closer. And so he did. And got a Headbutt for his trouble! Staggered, but still not dropping Kenzie, his grip loosened. This allowed the Flame Haired Flier the room she needed to kick her legs like hell... and wouldn't you know that one of those wild kicks happened to catch Kai in the very high inner thigh? He dropped to his knees, releasing her. The referee cautioned her, Kenzie shouting "it was accidentalllllllll" as she ran the ropes, and came back with a huge Halifax Explosion (Huracanrana Driver)! She rolled Kai up, taking a more than generous fistful of tights for good measure, and secured the win!

Winner: Kenzie Rowe


MATCH FOUR
Anna Giovanna (Italy) vs. Anna Mathews (Gallifrey)

The Anna Civil War was a fast and surprisingly bloody affair, both women coming in hard with their stiff, Japanese inspired styles. Anna M got busted open first, courtesy of a Golden Elbow (Discus Elbow Smash), although Anna G didn't take long to join her, getting her lip split with a Boomerfly Kick (Butterfly Kick)! To their absolute credit, and the joy of the crowd, neither woman wavered, only ramping up their efforts. Anna G almost looked like she secured it with The Smash (Three-Quarter Uppercut to the jaw), sending Anna M on an express trip to La-La Land... but when she went to follow up with her KO Punch (Straight Right to the jaw), Anna M not only dodged, but used the momentum to catch Giovanna with an Anna To The Infinite Power (Tilt-a-Whirl Headscissors Implant DDT)! Anna G popped straight back up, to everybody's surprise... but she wasn't really there, acting purely on instinct, a point proven as Anna M effortlessly took her down with a Heart Kick. Seeking to end things, she went up top, largely asking the Panamanian crowd "¿Pastel o Muerta?", before launching herself off and connecting with a Cake Or Death? (Corkscrew Shooting Star Elbow Drop), driving her elbow into the same point as the previous kick, stunning Anna long enough to secure the pin!

Winner: Anna Mathews


MATCH FIVE
.PAAK (South Korea) vs. Elsa Thorne (The Philippines)

Insert savage Strong Style strike escapades here! This was a protracted battle between two incredibly determined competitors, that left both battered, bruised and weary, but regardless neither was prepared to throw in the towel. As the battle progressed, strikes got wild and sloppy, hitting harder, but less frequently, but the fire remained. Elsa nearly got the fall after trapping .PAAK in the ropes in the corner, and catching her with a thunderous Crusher Ball (Running Back Heel Kick to horizontally rope-trapped opponent), but .PAAK managed to get a toe to the ropes at the last moment. Regardless, Elsa wasn't finished. Howling and shouting for .PAAK to stand, she waited until she was up to a knee before launching in with an Eraser Gun (Superkick to kneeling opponent)... but .PAAK managed to catch the boot, and shove hard, knocking Elsa on her back! Both were exhausted, but .PAAK got up first... and as Elsa pushed herself up to seated, .PAAK charged in and caught her square with a Gun Smoke (High Knee to kneeling opponent)! She bundled her up... and scored the 3!

Winner: .PAAK


MATCH SIX
Crystal Alvarez (Puerto Rico) vs. Dante Cutler (Jamaica)

The Caribbean Clash was just as hot as the nations the two competitors represented. Full of thrills and spills, the crowd was torn between both competitors. Crystal's experience and technical pedrigree certainly gave her the edge over the gifted rookie Dante, however, and she managed to keep control of him, and the match, with effective use of locks and submission holds. Keeping The Rhythm grounded, she soon had him trapped in a Lethal Strong (Elevated Boston Crab with a knee to the back). Dante refused to quit, however, and after a grueling minute and a bit in the hold twisted out of it, bringing Crystal down with what was effectively a Bodyscissors Takedown. Regardless, Crystal wouldn't allow him to build up any momentum, effectively cutting him down any time he tried. This continued until she caught him with her KO Queen Special (Three Left Handed Jabs followed by a Right Hook), sending him reeling into the corner! Seizing her opportunity, Alvarez revved up the engine and charged in, looking for a Super Duper Knockout Supreme (Superman Punch)... only for Dante to dart forward, sliding under Crystal and catching her about the thighs, taking her over with a Flapjack, hot shotting her into the top turnbuckle! Crystal leaned heavily on the post to recover, but Dante didn't give her much of a chance, charging in an catching her with The Guns Of Brixton (Running Corner Dropkick)! She fell, he hooked the leg, the ref counted... and that was that!

Winner: Dante Cutler


MATCH SEVEN
Anastasia Starling (Poland) vs. Blaise Fader (England)

Well. This fight. Finding herself in a similar predicament to Kenzie Rowe earlier in the night, Anastasia utilized similar tactics, although with more than a hint of her inimitable flair. Blaise Fader, however, was no rookie Kai Victorino: she was more than prepared for this tactic from Ana, and sought to make her life as difficult as possible. Blaise got in a number of early big hits, taking some of the wind out from under Starling's wings, a high speed Rock'n Rolla (Cannonball Senton) a notable highlight from this section. Squished, but not unbowed, Anastasia refused to give up, and soon after managed to surprise Fader with a Pale Winged Passerine (Handspring Stunner)! This allowed Starling to build a decent amount of momentum; she even managed to connect with Our Lady Peace (Spinning Bicycle Kick), although the notoriously robust Blaise refused to fall. Showing a hint of frustration, Ana went to the ropes, coming back with a Springboard Polish Hammer, only for Blaise to catch her and drill her with a Fade-Away II (Standing Moonsault Fallaway Slam)! The crowd were shocked by the agility displayed, whilst Starling found herself pancaked in the middle of the mat! Not wanting to leave things to chance, Blaise peeled her off the canvas, hoisted her up over her shoulders... and planted her with the Coventry Blitz (Argentine Powerbomb), getting the pin immediately after!

Winner: Blaise Fader


MAIN EVENT
Danielle Vasquez (Peru) vs. Mariano Fernandez (Argentina)

The crowd were on fire here, as their two international neighbors went head to head in a sort of rematch from last year's FIFA World Cup qualifiers. Manny went in hard and fast, looking to hamper the speed of the notoriously agile Hatun Siquta, but found his efforts confounded by Dani's determination, ultimately resulting in Kisses (Leaping Reverse STO) for his troubles. Regardless, the match wasn't plain sailing for Dani; although she commanded a lead throughout, she had to fight for it every step of the way, as Da Troll Guy just refused to stay down. Indeed, as Dani went for a Side Kick, Manny countered with an Arrow To The Knee (Low Dropkick to the knee), instantly followed up with The Gadfly (Step-Up Enzuigiri). It wasn't enough to put Dani away, but it certainly reminded her of her own mortality. As the match continued, the high speed athletics took their toll on both competitors. Sensing Dani's tiredness, Manny went for one big final effort, hoisting her up for the Dovahkiin Driver (Vertical Suplex Piledriver)... but Dani managed to wiggle free! Not giving him a second to react, she grabbed him, and with his head hooked ran the corner and launched into a Qoya (Turnbuckle Run Tornado DDT)... but Manny didn't go down! Showing an impressive display of strength, he hoisted Dani up as she swung, taking a moment to adjust his grip... she kicked her legs wildly, desperately trying to get momentum to finish the move... only for Manny to drop her with the Dovahkiin Driver, headfirst into the mat! Mariano didn't immediately go for the pin, exhausted as he was, but after a few moments he hooked a leg, and held on for dear life, as the ref counted one... two... three!

Mang.

Winner: Mariano Fernandez
