Collision
Technical difficulties on my end. Details for the first half will be filled on after on replay.
Hiromu Takahashi, Scorpio Sky, & Top Flight defeated Lance Archer, Rocky Romero, Josh Alexander, & Hechicero.
Vignette of Hook action figures fighting over the FTW Championship.
Megan Bayne defeated Isla Dawn.
Queen Aminata & Willow Nightingale defeated Skye Blue & Julia Hart. Aminata bludgeoned Blue with a headbutt and a running strike for an emphatic pin. After the match, Thekla attacked Queen. Willow helped her partner. Penelope Ford ran in to fight Willow. Megan Bayne wasn’t far behind to hammer Willow. Feel the wrath! Harley Cameron sprinted to the ring. She ducked a clothesline from the Megasus then answered with an enziguri to stun Bayne. Numbers were too much for Harley. Kris Statlander joined the fracas on the babyface side to return the favor to Harley. Stat clotheslined Bayne out of the ring.
Best Wrestler Alive international open challenge: Zack Sabre Jr. defeated Max Caster. Put 5 minutes on the clock. Sabre easily had his way with technical wrestling. He earned the win via abdominal stretch with 2:37 left on the clock. Afterward, Sabre peacocked in front of Nigel McGuinness. Nigel removed his headset for a face to face staredown. Nigel offered a handshake. Sabre accepted the gesture, but Nigel didn’t let go. Tension increased before parting ways.
Caster was still in the ring. Antony Bowens ran into pummel Platinum Max. When the crowd started chanting for Max, Bowens dished out more punishment. Billy Gunn arrived on the scene to scold Bowens. Bowens puffed his chest, so Billy told him to back off. Bowens retreated.
Still to come…
