Jay Bradley vs. Wrecking Ball Legursky
Jay pushes Ball. Ball offers a handshake and Jay slaps the hand away. Jay backs him up in the corner then slaps him. Ball hits punches on Jay. Jay knees him in the gut then Ball shoulders him over. Ball atomic drops him. Jay is stuck between the ropes and Ball hits him, knocking him back and forth.
Ball knocks him out of the ring. Jay facekicks Ball off the apron. Ball's head is banged off the apron. Jay hits shots on him outside.
Jay punches Ball in the ring and Ball tries to hulk up. Jay ddt's him. Jay foot slaps him then clubs on him. Jay knees him in the face. Jay misses a knee drop. They trade punches then punch each other at the same time. Both go down.
Ball hits a bodyblock and slams him. Ball corner splashes him then hits a hip attack in the corner. Jay backdrops him. Jay tries to pin him with his feet on the ropes but is caught. Jay misses a vader bomb elbow drop. Ball shoulders him over for the win.
Thoughts: I liked the work mostly (they had some weak shots here) but I didn't get the logic. These two are partners usually and Jay was beating him up like he had wronged him somehow. They definitely seemed to push that these two were done as partners which is news. It was all heavyweight wrestling otherwise.
We get various wrestlers pushing for candidates for the President of the Territories.
NWA Worlds Heavyweight Title #1 Contendership Jax Dane Memorial Tournament Semi Final Match - Zyon vs. Colby Corino
Zy takes him down when he's hammerlocked. CC spins around on the mat and wristlocks him. Zy top wristlocks him. CC side headlock takerovers him. CC armdrags him. CC olympic slams him then does an inverted senton onto him.
CC hits corner punches. CC is dropped throat first on the ropes then Zy short arm lariats him twice. Zy hits chops and euros in the corner. CC chops back. Zy chinlocks him then neckbreakers him. Zy hits knees to the back and chinlocks him. CC hits shots to the gut and is neckbreakered.
Zy fist drops him. Zy stomps on him. Zy misses an elbow drop. CC hits forearms and chops. CC spinning forearms him. CC hits Vaquer's SVB for 2. CC misses a top rope swanton. Austin Idol gives Zyon some substance in is hand. Zy rakes CC's eyes with it. Zy michinoku drivers him for 2. CC backrolls him and wins.
Thoughts: I don't like this "substance" gimmick. You can't see it at all so it loses it's effect. Powder is a lot better. CC did a decent job as a face but it was an average match overall. The substance spot didn't help things.
We get more pitches for the President of the Territories.
Kenzie is asked. She says she's winning and said she never met a pastor she trusted. She says she's a double champ but she's just one of the fans. She says bigger paydays for everyone and says she doesn't care where it comes from. Joe asks where will the money come from? Kenzie says she will do sponsorships. She says she will have indy bands collab with Billy Corgan. She says Billy can give the money from those collabs to her.
C-Lo says he will work on being one people and says they will do anything and everything. Joe then cuts it off and says we aren't getting real answers.
Joe Cazana does his pitch for President of the Territories.
Kylie Paige and Hunter are washing cars at her house. She says she's a passionate person. She rips Hunter for not being able to beat Natalia Markova. She says he can't even beat a girl. She says she has his back against Bryan Idol. He says he will beat Idol in places we've never even heard of.
Blunt Force Trauma (Damage and Carnage) vs EC3 and Pretty Boy Smooth
Here's a random one.
EC is double teamed to start. Carn chokes him on the ropes then bangs his head off the buckles. Carn misses a splash and takes a thesz press. PB gets in and facekicks Damage. PB slams and legdrops Carn.
Damage powerslams EC. We go to break and Kenzie does her pitch for President of the Territories. We return. EC takes corner attacks. Damage spinebusters EC and stomps him. Damage does a traphezus hold on EC. EC jawbreakers Damage.
Carn gets in and trap holds EC. EC grabs Carn like a ddt but trips him backwards. PB gets in and shoulders over Carn. PB hits a corner splash. PB sto's Carn then slams Damage on him. PB throws EC into a cutter. Aron Stevens pulls PB's neck down over the top rope.
Carnage dropkicks EC. PB forearms Carnage. PC pulls Damage's throat down over the top and EC pins Damage to win.
Thoughts: It was a shorter one and definitely somewhat of an upset. The match was average as they didn't have a lot of big spots or enough time.
Thom Lattimer talks. He says he's not done with Aron Stevens. He says Aron tried to ruin his career and life. He says the worst thing he could have done was ruin his marriage. He says him and his wife know what Aron is like. He says he beat one of Aron's guys and he needs to get his hands on him. He says he's a leader. He says you gotta clean up when there's a mess and said Aron made a mess. He says you gotta put on the gloves and clean the dishes and says Aron is the dishes. He says he will put the gloves on and shove his fist down his throat.
Thoughts: It's been a long time and we still have no idea how Aron tried to blackmail Thom. This is about as close as we are probably getting to finding out.
Overall thoughts: It was your usual random episode of Powerrr. The Fixers are seemingly done and we have no idea why. Zyon tried to use some liquid substance we couldn't see on Colby, but he ended up losing anyway. We got lots of pitches for President of The Territories. The main was short and random. We also maybe got some clarity on whatever Aron tried to blackball Thom with, but not much. Like always, it wasn't that good and I'd only give it a 4 out of 10 overall.
