Your Synergy coverage begins, now…
Seb enters without incident. Destroyer’s entrance almost takes longer than the following match will. Destroyer steps out onto the ramp with a loaded shopping cart o’ goodies. What’s the worst that could happen, right? This is the human calamity we’re talking about. He gets to the end of the stage, trips, and slips. He topples forward and headfirst into the cart, getting himself stuck. While he kicks wildly the cart tears ass down the tamp, rattling loudly all the way. Seb watches this with a crooked smile, then slides out of the ring. He pulls a table out, sets it up outside, and then slides back in just as Destroyer crashes hard into the ringpost, crunching the front of the cart inward. The force causes the trascan of fun he’s stuck in to pop out and fall off of the back to the floor. The Destroyer staggers out, climbs up onto the apron, somehow managing not to hurt himself. I know, it’s a surprise to me too.
He pulls himself through the ropes, catches his foot on the second rope and in the process of trying to grab the top rope wraps his arm around his head and somehow manages to DDT himself. Sebastian looks at Hazel, who shrugs in return. The bell rings in the middle of this sad display of dimwittery to signify that it’s an actual match.
Seb looks like he’s going to go over to pull Destroyer up, but doesn’t get the chance as Destroyer somehow pops up abd charges at him. Seb “Oh-lay”s him with a smoothness that a Bullfighter couldn’t done better. The momentum, along with the slight push from Seb sends Destroyer over the top rope and outside. He crashes through the table. Or he would if he had any body mass. Instead he hits it with a dull “thud”, slides off and slams head first into the ring apron, knocking himself stupid. Stupider? I’m not sure, but he’s clearly more of a mental speedbump afterward.
Seb slides out, throws him over the ropes into the ring where he lands in a pile of loser, and slides in after him. He lines himself up in the corner, ready for the “Empire Kick”, but as he prepares to connect with it his Seb-senses tingle as Hastings slides in behind him with a steel pipe. Hastings charges at Seb from behind, but Seb ducks and Hastings connects on the Destroyer with the weapon. Hastings shouts at the useless lump and turns into an “Empire Kick” before Seb covers the Destroyer for the three.
Winner: Sebastian Everett-Bryce
Time: 1:28
Ezra Wolf comes out first, followed by JC. Referee Sam Green calls for the bell and we get underway. There’s some banter back and forth between the two as they step closer to the center of the ring. It seems casual at first, but it’s clear the deeper into the conversation these two are getting, the more hostile it’s becoming. They finally meet in the middle, and get face to face, Ezra refusing to back down from the Bogeyman.
JC smirks as the verbal exchange seems to taper off. From out of nowhere, Ezra winds up and open-hand slaps JC across the face, and JC’s smirk gets lost somewhere in the fifth row. The Bogeyman didn’t appreciate nor expect it, and Ezra capitalizes immediately. He charges forward with several various strikes that send JC backpedaling into the corner. Once there, he continues the relentless assault. He backs out of the corner and waits as JC stumbles forward and into a running single leg dropkick that sends JC back into the corner.
Ezra climbs the middle rope and begins a good old-fashioned ten punch. At seven, JC manages to slither his arms into position and shove Ezra backwards off of him. Ezra hits the canvas and back somersaults back to his feet. JC moves with startling speed, however, and hits him with a powerful running clothesline just as he’s standing. JC takes the opportunity to implement his game plan, and immediately begins to work Ezra over with a single leg crab. Ezra quickly crawls to the ropes and Sam Green has to count to four before JC releases the hold.
When he finally does release it, Ezra lets go of the ropes and JC snatches him by his legs and pulls him back towards the middle of the ring. This time, he applies an STF. Ezra once again manages to crawl to the ropes, but with a lot more effort than the first time. He finally gets his fingertips to the bottom rope. Sam Green orders JC to release the hold. JC reaches out and smacks Ezra’s fingertips off the bottom rope, applying more pressure now. Green begins his five count, despite JC’s protests, and JC lets go at four once again. He gets to his feet, and glares down at the ref. Green warns JC he better not touch him. Meanwhile, behind him, Ezra is getting to his feet. JC turns his attention to Wolf just in time to block a haymaker, and he counters with a stiff headbutt that sends Ezra ricocheting off the ropes. As he bounces back towards JC, he ducks under another clothesline, and uses his momentum to launch himself across the ring.
Bouncing off the opposite ropes, Ezra comes charging back and hits a flying crossbody that sends JC to the mat. He gets to his feet quickly and applies a single leg crab of his own! But JC gets to the ropes quickly and breaks the hold. Ezra hesitates to break the hold, but does so in a timely enough manner that Sam doesn’t feel the need to warn him as harshly as he did the Bogeyman. JC gets to his feet slowly and Ezra measures him up, then goes for a superkick to JC’s knee! But the Bogeyman blocks it, shoving Ezra’s foot to the side. Again, with a speed the veteran shouldn’t possess, JC reaches out and snatches Ezra by the head and pulls him into a standing guillotine choke.
Ezra manages to wiggle free, shoving JC backwards and bouncing off the ropes. On the return, Ezra hits him with Kickin’ It Old School! At the same time, JC connects with the Big Boot of Death! And now both men are on the mat. Sam begins the ten count.
He reaches eight before both JC and Ezra struggle to their feet. JC steps over to Ezra, who is still leaning against the ropes, and grabs him by the hair. Pulling him to the middle of the ring, Ezra swipes JC’s hands away and leaps up. Peace Out!
No! JC catches him in midair and puts him into a dragon sleeper! He wrenches Ezra’s neck with as much force as he can, but Ezra refuses to give up! JC tries to apply even more pressure, but he realizes he’s using too much energy and wisely releases the hold. Frustrated, the Bogeyman circles the ring as Ezra stands. JC runs against the ropes and hits Ezra with a devastating running forearm to the back of his head! Epiphany! And that’s enough for the pinfall victory!
Winner: JC
Time: 9:52
Winner: Dave Rydell
Time: 1:07
This is the second title defense for Ken Davison as the Conquest Champion and his first outside the round robin of the Global Challenge, and a big opportunity for John Blade in what is only the Surgeon of Thuganomic’s third match in the Coalition.
Blade attacks right away, backing Davison into the ropes with right hands, and he whips him across the ring and off the ropes into a sitout hip toss. Blade goes into the quick cover, but Davison kicks out right away. Blade slaps on a side headlock, but Davison works his way back to his feet and delivers a series of elbow shots to break free, before connecting with a step-up enziguri.
Davison goes to work with a series of suplexes, beginning with a snap suplex and following up with a german suplex before completing a trifecta with a belly to back overhead suplex. Pendulum backbreaker gets a two count, as the veteran champion is putting on a clinic in the ring.
Davison whips Blade off the ropes and into a tilt-a-whirl, but Blade counters with a hurricarana. Blade connects with a pair of shoulder tackles, then ducks a clothesline attempt from Davison and lifts him into a spin-out powerbomb. Blade taunts Davison before looking for a fist drop, but Davison counters and takes him down with a toe hold. Davison connects with the Kenadian Destroyer and covers, but Blade gets his shoulder up at two.
Davison brings Blade to the corner, lifts him onto the turnbuckle and setting up for a superplex, but Blade fights back and shoves Davison off the turnbuckle and sends him crashing back to the ring. Blade steadies himself and leaps for a diving leg drop, but Davison moves out of the way. Davison lifts Blade into the Jawdropper and covers for the three!
Winner: Ken Davison
Time: 6:41
Pierce needs a submission victory to win Block B, but as he gets off to a hot early start with an early advantage, Ken Davison begins strolling down the ramp. Pierce spots him and warns him to stay away from the ring. Rogan MacLean emerges from the crowd on the other side and slides into the ring, but a panicked Pierce spots him and intercepts him before he can attack Holden and cause a disqualification.
Pierce manages to toss Rogan out of the ring, but the commotion has distracted the referee and he doesn’t notice Davison pull Holden out on the other side and toss him into the crowd. Sam Green notices Holden missing and starts the ten count, as meanwhile Pierce warns Rogan not to try again. Pierce checks on Davison, who stands innocently at the bottom of the ramp, before realizing that the ref is counting. Pierce looks around frantically for Holden, but it’s too late as he’s been counted out!
Winner: Travis Pierce
Time: 2:00
Pierce screams in frustration as commentary confirms that Ken Davison has officially won Block B!
The opening bell sounds and the two competitors lock up. Zane hits a side slam on Tempest and goes in for a mounted set of forearms. Tempest covers up and is able to squirm away. He gets up but right into a clothesline from Zane. Zane grabs the original Astro Creep and sends him into the corner. He hits a body splash. He drags Tempest out and goes for a belly to belly, but Tempest counters out and hits an arm drag.
Tempest hits a side kick to the knee of Zane and then a running forearm smash, sending Zane to the mat. Tempest covers but only gets a 1 count. Zane powers out and immediately goes after Tempest. He gets Tempest in a reverse waist lock. He goes for a German suplex but Tempest counters and victory rolls him up, but barely gets a 2 count. He pulls Zane up and whips him off the ropes. Hip toss! Zane pops up right into a spinning back elbow. Tempest gets Zane up again and hits a gut wrench suplex. Tempest drops down for an armor but Zane gets to the ropes before it’s fully locked in.
