LARRY SQUASH PUNY RAGDOLL.
Winner: Larry Tact
Time: 2:25
The early match is a back and forth as the men exchange technical holds, counter holds, and strikes. After a time, Jess leaps at Gideon, only for Gideon to literally chop him out of the air. Gideon takes over, mixing chop blocks, knee breakers, slamming Jess’ feet into the ring post, then dropping him on his head with a backdrop suplex. He continues focusing on Jess’ legs, locking him in a single leg crab. He repeatedly pulls Jess up and slams him knee first into the mat, then lifts him and slams both of his knees into the mat with a sit out knee breaker. He switches to Jess’s head, trying to weaken his neck with DDTs, neckbreakers, clotheslines and elbows to the back of his neck. He goes for a stun gun, but Jess catches him with a reverse hurricanrana and throws him from the ring.
This leaves both men down until Jess gets to his feet at seven and Thornfield slides back under the bottom rope, only to be met with a springboard elbow drop that drives his face into the mat, hard. He grabs the ropes and leaps up, driving a vicious stomp into Gideon’s back. He steps onto the apron, grabs the top rope and slingshots himself into the ring. He crashes down with a leg drop, rolls through it and goes for the “Shatterpoint Kick,” but Gideon grabs him by the foot and dumps him onto his back.
Gideon pulls Jess up and drives him down with a quick “Mindbreaker,” then attempts “Percival’s Gambit,” but Jess wiggles his way loose, and nearly rolls Gideon up before Gideon kicks out. Jess springs up and delivers a quick and vicious “Shatterpoint Kick,” and a “Cherry Bomb,” then finishes Gideon off with “Identity Crisis” for the win.
Winner: A Boy Named Jess
Time: 8:03
Before the commercial break, we join the Empire of Calamity backstage.
We begin with Special Referee doing his Ref duties, checking for foreign objects and the like. He’s about to call for the bell when the two rush at each other and Lucy takes Travis down with a leaping headscissors takedown. Sebastian quickly calls for the bell and we’re officially underway. Travis pops up and takes Lucy down with a sweep, then goes for a kick but she avoids it and takes him down with a sweep of her own. Travis leaps up and barely avoids a dropkick, then grabs Lucy and attempts a suplex, only for her to land on her feet and hit him with a dropkick of her own, staggering him. She runs at him, but he dodges it and runs toward the other side of the ring. He bounces off and leaps over a prone Lucy, who rebounds and leapfrogs over him, landing on her feet and shoving him away as he darts past. He bounces off of the ropes going the other way, then takes her down with a shoulder tackle. He turns to pull her up, only to take a kick to the forehead that staggers him. She leaps into the ropes and bounces off, attempting a hurricanrana, but Pierce catches her, lifts her up for a powerbomb and falls backward, dropping her across his kneed with a mammoth double-knee backbreaker that leaves both of them down on the mat.
Seb begins the count, but they’re both up quickly. Pierce quickly eats a spinning heel kick, but grabs her on the way down and somehow drops her with a falling sleeper slam. She rolls through the landing and ends up locking him into an armbar. Seb check to see if he wants to give up, but he says “no” and uses his greater bodyweight to push her into a rollup pinning attempt. She kicks out at two, kips up and ducks an attempted lariat, blasting him with a superkick. He falls back against the ropes, bounce off and catches her with an elbow in the mouth. She falls to the mat and he goes for a quick pin, but she kicks out at two. He pulls her up and connects with a tilt a whirl backbreaker and chains it into a suplex. She rolls into the corner and he walks up and goes to pull her to her feet when she rolls out of the way, leaps onto the rope and plants him with a tornado DDT. She goes for a quick pin, but he kicks out at two, practically tossing her away and across the ring.
He charges at her as she kips up and blitzes at him. They throw kicks at the same time, with Lucy going high while Pierce goes low. Neither notices their proximity to Sebastian, who finds himself in the line of fire. The two absolutely, and accidentally obliterate him with an unintentional “Total Elimination.” They both land and look unsure of what to do. Both try to rouse Sebastian, blaming the other for what happened. He comes to just long enough to ring the bell for a double DQ before he passes back out again. They never get to pick up where they left off as the ring floods with officials, and medics run to the ring to check on Sebastian.
Winner: Double DQ
Time: 9:58
Konrad Raab and Ezra Wolf in our next Global Challenge qualifier, and Deimos has given this bout the Chaos Rules stipulation. The two fighters circle each other cautiously before locking up in the center of the ring. Raab gains the early advantage with a quick armdrag takedown, but Wolf counters with a lightning-fast single leg dropkick, sending Raab reeling. Wolf follows up with a series of punishing strikes, including palm strikes and a vicious striking combo, driving Raab into the corner.
Raab fights back with a flurry of boxing punches, staggering Wolf and creating an opening for a spinebuster. As Raab goes for the cover, Wolf kicks out at the last moment, narrowly avoiding defeat. Regaining his composure, Wolf retaliates with a release German suplex, slamming Raab to the mat with authority. Wolf seizes the opportunity to introduce a steel chair into the mix, smashing it over Raab's back before delivering a devastating Meteora.
Raab refuses to stay down, though, managing to reverse a Fujiwara armbar into a crossface chickenwing. Wolf writhes in pain but manages to reach the ropes, dragging himself to the outside. Raab executes a picture-perfect top rope elbow drop, followed by a textbook superplex off the apron!
Konrad attempts an early pinfall, but only manages two. He whips Ezra into the ring stairs before climbing back into the ring. Wolf seizes the opportunity to grab a kendo stick from under the ring. When he doesn’t get up to meet Burned in Blood in the ring. Raab rolls his eyes and steps back out, giving Ezra an opening to deliver a series of brutal strikes with the kendo. The crowd roars its approval as Wolf continues his assault,
Raab fights back with a vengeance, countering Wolf's onslaught by setting up a spinebuster onto the toppled steps, but the Red Eyed Warrior reverses with a breathtaking DDT! His temper rising swiftly, Raab reaches for a trash can lying at ringside, using it to his advantage as he smashes it over Wolf's head before collapsing beside him.
Both competitors take a minute before stirring. They both manage to get to their feet around the same time, but Wolf has found a steel chain! With the chain wrapped around his fist, Wolf delivers a series of bone-crushing strikes that leave Raab staggering, desperately trying to stay on his feet. He finally grabs a length of the chain that has unraveled, and uses it to whip Ezra against the ring apron. Wolf slumps before Konrad rolls him back into the ring.
Raab grabs a ladder from ringside and shoves it in, climbing in himself to drag Ezra over the ladder. He climbs the nearby ropes to perform a huge moonsault, but Wolf rolls off at the last second, and Raab only gets a faceful of ladder!
As Konrad struggles to get his feet under him, Wolf has dragged himself up in the corner. He measures Raab, then darts across the ring for a Knee Jerk Reaction, and covers for the win!
Winner: Ezra Wolf
Time: 9:16
Cashe needs a win of any kind to clinch the top spot in Block A, however a win by Zane or a draw will result in Matt Knox winning the Block. Zane can’t win the Block but could finish second with a submission victory.
Zane overwhelms Cashe right out of the gate, backing him into a corner and aggressively stomping him down, clearly having something to prove. Zane grabs by the leg and drags him out of the corner, attempting to apply a leg lock, but Cashe pulls him into an inside cradle for a two count.
Both men pop to their feet, but Zane catches Cashe with a knee lift. He prepares to lift Cashe into a powerbomb, but Cashe backdrops out of it, and quickly slaps on a side headlock. Cashe gives Zane a noogie, and Zane angrily shoves him off. Zane charges but runs right into an exploder suplex, and Zane rolls out to the apron. He uses the ropes to start to pull himself up, but Cashe charges and spears him through the ropes, sending both men spilling to ringside!
Cashe gets to his feet first and starts to bring Zane back to the ring, but Zane grabs him and hurls him into the barricade. Zane rolls in and out to break the count, then grabs Cashe and puts him into the Elevator to the Gallows! Zane has Cashe in the inverted cloverleaf, and he swings him around and drives him again into the barricade!
Zane sends Cashe back into the ring and climbs in himself, and is briefly admonished by the referee for what happened outside, but Zane brushes him off. Zane goes to reapply the inverted cloverleaf, but Cashe manages to kick him away. Cashe rises and ducks under a clothesline before knocking Zane down with a clothesline of his own, following up with another pair. Zane is slower to rise after the third, and Cashe moves into position behind him and drives him to the mat with a running bulldog. Cashe flapjacks Zane onto the turnbuckle, lines up and connects with the Mark of JASON! Cashe covers, but Zane’s foot is under the bottom rope!
Cashe grabs Zane by the arm and drags him towards the center of the ring, but Zane grabs Cashe’s head with his other hand, and yanks him down to the mat before attempting to apply the Jaws of Strife! Cashe flails momentarily, but manages to deliver several clubbing blows to Zane’s head, knocking him off. Cashe holds his own head and checks his mouth as commentary notes time has nearly expired, and Cashe ducks under a clothesline before dropping Zane with the U.T.I.! Cashe rolls over after a moment and covers, but time expires before the referee can count three!
Winner: Time Limit Draw
Time: 10:00
The time limit draw means that Matt Knox will face Larry Tact in the Global Challenge Finals!
Owen Peterson is present as the Consortium’s representative overseeing the contract signing. Simon accompanies Vain to meet the waiting Hastings in the ring. Vain and Hastings debate the correct nomenclature for their respective seconds before Owen interrupt to put things on track.
Owen reminds both Hastings and Vain that neither is permitted to touch the other prior to the title match, meaning there is no reason to further delay. Vain shrugs and signs the contract, and Hastings smiles and does the same. Hastings reiterates that neither is allowed to touch the other, and adds that Owen can’t be touched either, as a member of the Consortium. However, nothing is protecting Simon, and before anyone can react Hastings grabs him and slams him through the table.
A furious Vain stands toe-to-toe with his smug challenger as Synergy goes off the air.
