The two lock up at the bell with Tact taking Pierce by surprised with a kickswing DDT. He pulls Pierce up and whips him into the ropes, using it to throw him up and over with backdrop, that he follows up with an old fashioned boot to the face when Pierce gets back up. Pierce turns the tide when Tact goes to pull him up, but is surprised when Pierce escapes his grip, slips behind him, and slams him onto the back of his head with a Falling Sleeper Slam. Pierce lays in a few stomps, a leg drop, and a standing elbow drop. He parades around taunting Tact and the crowd, then leaps up onto the top rope and almost launches Tact from the ring with a top rope headscissor takedown. Tact rolls from the ring to the floor as Pierce charges at him. Pierce leaps up onto the turnbuckle and leaps off, looking for a clothesline. He comes down but tact catches him and drops him chin first across the barrier before he collapses to the floor himself, leaving both men down outside.
Hazel East begins the count, but both men slide in by five and come up swinging. They trade arm drags, clotheslines, more punches, and a pair of powerslams before Pierce catches Tact with a dropkick. He tries for a quick pin, but Tact kicks out before one. Pierce goes to drop another elbow but misses when Tact rolls out of the way. Tact kips up, kicks Pierce in the side of the head, then grabs him around the head and drives a lifting knee into his face, staggering him. Tact follows it up with a short arm clothesline, holds on and transitions into a snap powerbomb. He goes for the pin, but Pierce kicks out at two. Tact pulls him up but is surprised by “The Breakdown!” Pierce rolls over for the pin, but Tact kicks out at two. Pierce pulls Tact up, going for “Signing Off,’ but it’s Tact’s turn to surprise Pierce, which he does with “The Humbling!”
This leaves both men down.
Once they’re up, it’s a speed run to the finish. Pierce hits Tact with multiple backbreakers, a couple of suplexes, another falling sleeper slam and “The Piercing Blow”. He goes for the pin, but only gets a two before Tact kicks out. He pulls Tact up and tries to set him up for “The Truth Hurts,” but Tact catches him and turns it into a modified brainbuster. He goes for the pin, but Pierce kicks out. He pulls Pierce up and sets him up for what looks like a powerbomb, but Pierce begins to punch him in the head, so Tact turns it into “The Starbreaker.” He attempts to pin Pierce, but Pierce gets his foot on the bottom rope, breaking the count. Tact pulls him back toward center ring, hoists him up and splatters him with the “Tactilizer.” Instead of going for the pin, he hoists Pierce up, and sends him crashing down with the “Starbreaker” for the three.
Winner: Larry Tact
Time: 11:06
The contest begins with a series of intense lock-ups and shoving matches. Ezra hits with a T-Bone Suplex, but Avenger retaliates with a double foot stomp off the top rope. They engage in a striking exchange. Ezra delivers several palm strikes and Avenger responds by breaking away and hitting the ropes, only to return with a running forearm smash. Avenger executes a springboard flying uppercut, nearly securing a pinfall, but Ezra narrowly escapes.
Ezra reacts quickly to Vengy’s frustration with a release German suplex. Avenger responds with a snap suplex, but Ezra powers out. Kicking his legs from beneath him, Avenger locks in a calf crusher, but too close to the ropes. Ezra counters with a Fujiwara armbar that nearly sees the caped crusader tap, but Vengy manages to roll through and free himself. As they both push to their feet, Avenger hits a handstand headscissors takedown, nearly pinning Ezra again before he miraculously kicks out just in time.
After both fighters have caught their breath, Ezra launches a flying crossbody. Avenger sees it and dodges a split second before Wolf can hit. A striking combo from Ezra leaves Avenger dazed for a moment, and in desperation he reaches out to grab Ezra by the throat. Avenger attempts a chokeslam, but Ezra counters into an interceptor spear, leading to another near-fall, this time for the Conquest Champion.
Drawing on his superhuman reserves, Avenger pops up and goes for a leaping clothesline. He tries for a schoolboy roll-up into a headkick, coming agonizingly close to connecting before Ezra takes his chance to dodge. The lack of a head to connect with throws Vengy off balance, and the Red-Eyed Warrior capitalizes with Kill the Noise, securing another title defense!
Winner: Ezra Wolf
Time: 9:16

Dave Rydell is looking to win the Cross-Hemisphere Title for a record eighth time in his career, as commentary reminds us that both Rydell and Zane will be in next week’s Keys to the Kingdom Match, and Covert Jay pipes in to add that three of Rydell’s title reigns occurred prior to the founding of UGWC and that his original reign dates all the way back to 2004.
Rydell goes right after Zane immediately, backing him into the ropes and clotheslining him to the outside, though Zane lands on his feet. Zane takes a moment to think about this as Rydell is off to a hot start, and the challenger steps back and demands Zane come back in. The champion rolls in, and Rydell tries to stomp Zane to keep him from getting to his feet, but the Professional anticipates the maneuver and rolls to the side, taking Rydell down with a drop toe hold.
Both men pop back onto their feet and lock up, and Zane overpowers Rydell and twists him into a hammerlock before driving his elbow into Rydell's shoulder. Zane spins Rydell around and exchanges a few swift punches before kicking Rydell in the chest and drives Rydell to the mat with an inverted gutwrench suplex slam, going right into a cover, but Rydell shoves him off. Zane goes to lift Rydell back up, but Rydell reverses it into a jawbreaker. Both men slowly get back to their feet and Rydell charges, going for a clothesline, but Zane ducks under the blow and Rydell charges past, bouncing off the ropes and running right into a spinebuster. Zane covers, but Rydell gets a shoulder up at one and a half.
Zane gets to his feet first as Rydell struggles to maintain balance. Zane staggers Rydell with a couple of hard rights before going to whip Rydell off the ropes but Rydell reverses it and follows Zane into the ropes, sending the champion to the outside with a hard clothesline. Rydell follows him out, waving off the referee, who pleads for them to return to the ring. Rydell grabs Zane by the head and bounces his cranium off the announce table, and a moment later does it a second time.

Chartreuse starts the ten count, and at six both begin to stir. Zane gets to his feet and goes to pull Rydell up, but Rydell drops him with the Virus of Life! Rydell covers, but Zane gets his foot on the bottom rope just before the three!
Frustrated, Rydell pulls Zane to his feet and drags him to the center of the ring, but Zane elbows his way loose. Zane goes to suplex Rydell, but Rydell floats out of the move and takes Zane down with an inverted DDT. Rydell stomps on Zane a few times and backs off, lining up for the Rydell Stomp, but as he charges and jumps into the air, Zane springs to his feet and shoves Rydell even further into the air, before catching him with Murderous Intent! Zane covers, but Rydell gets his shoulder up just before the three!
Both men are slow to their feet, and they begin exchanging blows, each man reeling from the impact before slowly retaliating, as commentary questions whether either will have anything left for next week. Rydell ducks under a swing from Zane, and sprints suddenly towards the ropes building momentum before connecting with another Tip of the Spear! Rydell rolls towards the ropes and uses them to pull himself back up, and he grabs Zane and readies to lift him for a powerbomb, but Zane stands, countering and getting Rydell into a fireman’s carry, and he connects with In Cold Blood! Zane covers and retains his title!
