Flip Gordon vs. Matt Cross

Lots of very athletic back and forth wrestling before they faced off.   Gordon nailed a springboard clothesline.  Gordon nailed a leaping dropkick into the corner, then nailed one in the opposite corner.

Gordon nailed a kick to the chest and followed up with a standing moonsault for a two count.  Gordon nailed a back elbow and scored another two count. 

Matt Cross came back with a handspring elbow in the corner but was caught while attempting a second.  Cross nailed a springboard into a double stomp for a two count.  Gordon avoided a springboard clothesline and nailed his own.

Gordon went to the top but was nailed by Cross.  Gordon escaped and kicked his leg out from under Cross, trapping him, then nailed a kick to the back for a two count.

They battled back and forth with forearms and punches.   Cross nailed a knee strike, then bounced off the ropes into a cutter for a two count. 

They went back and forth.  Cross nailed a backbreaker across the knees but was caught after ascending to the top rope.  Gordon leapt up with a kick to the head, then set up for a superplex.  Cross reversed and sent him crashing to the mat, then hit a shooting star press for the pin.

Your winner, Matt Cross!

Easily the best thing on the show thus far from an athletic standpoint.  Really entertaining.

Squad World Order vs. Hornswoggle and Crazzy Steve

 

Lots of shenanigans early on, including Swoggle doing power spots and biting Mikey on the rear end.   Crazzy Steve tagged in and said he was going to bite Mikey’s face off.  The crowd chanted, “Bite his face.”

The Squad took over on Steve, but Steve ducked when Kenny threw powder, blinding Mikey.  This led to the Squad trying to pin each other.  They realized what they were doing but were rolled up for a two count at the same time.

The Squad worked over Steve for a long time, tagging in and out and scoring two counts.   Steve finally reversed a suplex into a bodypress for a two count. 

Swoggle made the hot tag and began nailing German suplexes. He nailed a back splash in the corner on Kenny but was shoved down by Mikey.  Steve hit the ring and attacked Mikey.  Steve bit Kenny on the face.  Swoggle nailed a Samoan Drop and scored the pin.

Your winners, Swoggle and Crazy Steve!

Our came the Director of Sports-Entertainment, who said that what we saw was disgusting.  He said none of this was wrestling and certainly wouldn’t be approved by the President.  He declared the match was really a DQ and the Squad World Order won.

Crazzy Steve confronted him.  The crowd chanted for Steve to bite his face but instead Swoggle bit him on the rear and ran him off.

It was exactly what you would think.

Brian Cage vs. Sami Callihan vs. Willie Mack

 

They all began battling back and forth.  Callihan nailed a rana on Cage.  Cage nailed one on Mack.  Cage did all sorts of insane strength spots, including picking up both at once.  They did a nice Tower of Doom variant with Cage standing on the ropes for a suplex into the ring but Callihan slipped underneath and nailed a powerbomb.

Lots of strikes and all sorts of big spots.  Mack went to the top but was shoved off by Callihan.  All sorts of strikes and back and forth spots.  Callihan nailed a clothesline off the buckles on Cage.

All sorts of kicks, leading to Mack and Callihan teaming to drill Cage with a kick at the same time, Callihan brought the bat into the equation.  Mack nailed stunners on Cage and Callihan.  Mack finally scored the pin.

Your winner, Willie Mack!

Way too much going on to really do an accurate play by play.

That's all from HOH in NY.  We will return tomorrow with coverage of tomorrow's event in Philly!
