Matt Salvatore: That’s right, Andrew and tonight, it’s time for the first day of action from B Block and we both know who you’re rooting for in this block.
Andrew Payne: I’ll be an unbiased announcer throughout this entire block, but we both know I’m rooting for my girl, Morgan.
Matt Salvatore: She’s one of the last active competitors here that actually knew Vlad and in her press conference, she vowed to win it for him and his legacy.
Andrew Payne: I know she has it in her, but this block is stacked with talent, so it should be really interesting.
Matt Salvatore: That’s enough from us, let’s get this show on the road!
===============================================================
Prelim Tag Match #1.
Queen’s Guard vs Layla Diaz and Jed Coffey
In a match that saw three of the four members of the Tag Team Title Match from Cruel Summer, the fans were in for a treat. Layla and Jed were able to work well as a team, but Moe and Lluvia were able to find that same teamwork. Both teams had parts where they were in control, but at the end of the day, we found The Queen’s Guard delivering Neon Genesis: Evangelion on Jed and Moe picking up the win for her team.
Winners: Queen’s Guard
Result: Pinfall
===============================================================
Prelim Tag Match #2.
Super Tiger and FM Young vs Jenn Drew and Bellamy Parteabon
This match was certainly interesting as Jenn and Bellamy were trying to get on the same page on their first night as tag team partners, but early on, it didn’t seem to be clicking for the two of them with different miscommunications. That left the door open for Super Tiger and FM to keep control of most of this match. Eventually though, Jenn and Bellamy were able to get on the same page though as they delivered a double DDT to FM before delivering double elbow drops. Their team work wouldn’t be enough though as the chemistry between FM and Super Tiger took over and FM was able to deliver Heart of the Phoenix onto Jenn and hook the leg for the win.
Winners: Super Tiger and FM Young
Result: Pinfall
===============================================================
Prelim Tag Match #3.
Jansen Myrrh & Teresa Duke v. Griffin Hawkins & Leo Cook
These two teams took a moment to jell for each of them since it was the first time either teams had ever been together. The four people in this match though, eventually found their teamwork with each other the action started to pick up. The two teams would eventually jostle for control and both would have it for different periods of time, but eventually, it was Griffin Hawkins delivering Shot in the Dark on Teresa that gave his team the victory here.
Winners: Griffin Hawkins and Leo Cook
Result: Pinfall
===============================================================
Prelim Tag Match #4.
Ronnie North & Eleni Costa v. Runa Olson & River Chance
Ronnie and Eleni had some good teamwork in this match, but Runa and River couldn’t quite ever get on the same page with one another. Eventually though, River took over this match and she started using her power and strength to turn the match around in their favor. River was eventually able to deliver the Pommel Strike on Eleni and pick up the win for her team.Winners: River Chance and Runa Olson
Result: Pinfall
===============================================================
Prelim Tag Match #5.
Graham Baker & Adrianna Salvatore v. Damon Cross & Danni Anderson
In this match, Graham and Adrianna looked more content to try and outdo one another, the once bitter rivals, still not fully liking each other after going to war not that long ago over the United States Championship. Damon and Danni on the other hand though, they were flawless in their teamwork. The two of them were able to deliver double team moves and they knew what the other was going to do at each turn. Eventually, Danni had Adrianna set up as she tagged Damon in and she delivered A.D.H.D before Damon delivered White Redemption and picked up the win for his team.
Winners: Damon Cross and Danni Anderson
Result: Pinfall
===============================================================
B Block
Match #1.
Minoru Tanahashi vs Emevlas Stastias
Day two kicked off with Minoru and Emevlas doing battle. The two of them came out, determined to come out on top of this fight and get their tournament off on the right foot. The two of them jockeyed for momentum early on, but eventually, Emevlas was able to dodge a palm strike from Minoru and she was able to deliver a series of forearms followed up by a roundhouse kick. She followed that up with a shining wizard and managed to get a two count out of it. She picked Minoru back up and went for a jumping knee strike, but Minoru was able to avoid the move. He was able to turn things around here as he connected with a palm strike and he followed it up with a snap suplex. He was able to then pick Emevlas up and he delivered Kabukicho Nights before hitting her with The Black Lion Bomb and picking up the win.Winner: Minoru Tanahashi
Result: Pinfall
===============================================================
Match#2.
Sela-Rica Lark vs Angel Kash
Sela and Angel were out next for their match and this was nothing like the match before. At every turn, Angel was taking shortcuts to try and force Sela into mistakes or create an opening for herself. For the most part, Sela was able to resist the urges to just go right after Angel and she held her temper and appetite for violence in check. At one point though, Sela had Angel in the corner and as the ref was forced to step in and break them up, Angel was able to rake the eyes of Sela and mount some offense of her own. Angel came out of the corner and delivered a running bulldog and she was able to follow up after a few more moves with The Buyout and she managed to get a near fall out of it. Angel picked Sela up and she went for Kashflow, but Sela was able to push Angel off of her. Sela met Angel with a spear. She then followed up with Hurts So Good. Sela continued her offense before she finally locked in Playtime Over and Angel immediately tapped out.Winner: Sela-Rica Lark
Result: Submission
===============================================================
Match #3.
Maki vs Remi Fontaine
Next out was Maki taking on the surprise entrant into this year’s tournament, Remi Fontaine. This match was hard hitting and Remi looked like he had a lot to prove out there in this match. He was taking Maki to her absolute limit it seemed like. He delivered a nasty looking brainbuster and it managed to get him a nearfall, but after that, Maki had begun to turn things around into her favor. She delivered a jawbreaker that stunned Remi before climbing to the top rope and taking him down with a flying thrust kick. Maki would pick Remi up and then deliver a Brighton Bomb and she’d hook the leg, but Remi managed to get a foot on the ropes. Maki pulled him to the center of the ring though and she went for a Death Valley Driver, but Remi landed on his feet and Maki was able to avoid a clothesline before hitting Superkick Party. She followed it up with The Makihouse Kick that dropped Remi and she hooked the leg to get the victory.Winner: Maki
Result: Pinfall
===============================================================
Match #4.
Cass Baumer vs Morgan Payne
Morgan Payne vs the current Silver Mountain Champion, Cass Baumer was up next and this was the match of the night. Morgan came out, ready to prove her doubters wrong and Cass was ready to show the world that what happened at Cruel Summer wasn’t just some sort of fluke on her end. These two seemed to have counters for each others counters at every single turn. Neither one was able to really get any sort of advantage throughout this entire match. Morgan would string a few moves together, delivering a few quick boxing jabs before delivering a series of snap suplexes, but she would go for a release German and Cass would land on her feet. When Morgan turned around, she found herself on the receiving end of a headbutt to the bridge of the nose. Cass followed it up with a brainbuster before going for Bleeding Edge, but Morgan was able to avoid it. Morgan feigns a punch, causing Cass to cover up, but she then delivers F.Y.F. and she then picks Cass up to her shoulders and looks for Dahntahn After Dahk, but Cass manages to wiggle out of it and she delivers a basement dropkick that takes the legs out from under Morgan. Cass then delivers Bleeding Edge before following it up with The Fact Check and hooking the leg and managing to get the win over Morgan.Winner: Cass Baumer
Result: Pinfall
===============================================================
Match #5.
Anton Crowley vs Debby Haze
In our final match of the night, we saw Anton Crowley taking on Debby Haze. This match, it wasn’t really for the faint of heart. Anton came out, ready to cause destruction in this tournament and Debby was going to be his first victim.Early on though, Debby was able to get some offense in on Anton. She used her speed and slightly unorthodox style to keep him on his toes. Debbie was able to get Anton into the corner and she delivered a splash before hitting a cannonball senton to him. She would pull him out of the corner and climb to the top rope where she would go for a double footstomp, but Anton was able to avoid it. Debby seemed to have landed awkwardly and tweaked her knee a little bit and Anton took full advantage. He delivered a chopblock to the injured knee before following it up with DDT to the leg. He picked Debby up and then delivered a dragon screw legwhip. He would work the leg over a little more before hitting Debby with The Fall and then following it up with ad Stellam Matutinam and hooking the leg to get the win.Winner: Anton Crowley
Result: Pinfall
