By Mike Johnson on 2018-11-17 02:02:00

D'Lo Brown vs. Ethan Page

Brown was in control early and chopped him hard in the corner.  Page mocked him, doing the People's Elbow.  Page was kicked off during a charge.  Brown hit a moonsault, which was impressive, for a two count.  Brown made a comeback after being worked over with a series of right hands and a clothesline.  Brown scooped him up for a slam.  Brown nailed his legdrop.  The crowd was really into Brown doing all his Attitude Era mannerisms.  

Page caught him with a forearm smash but Brown rebounded and nailed him with the Low Down for a two count.  Brown placed Page on the top rope.  Page fought him off and nailed a swanton bomb for a close two count.  They went back and forth until Page scored the pin.

Your winner, Ethan Page!

Page took the mic and said, "By any means necessary!" which of course was the Nation of Domination's catch phrase.  

A solid match.  

Eight Person Scramble: Kikutaro vs. Façade vs. Chase Owens vs. Jake Atlas vs. Jimmy Lloyd vs. Delilah Doom vs. Minamono

Just highlights here because it's going to be all sorts of insane with bodies all over:

Owens and Kikutaro started out.  Owens slapped away an attempt at a “Too Sweet.”  They went back and forth.  Jake Atlas showed some real promise and agility.   Façade nailed a nice springboard kick.  Jimmy Lloyd tagged in and manhandled Façade.  Delilah Doom nailed some nice spots including a dropkick and a 619.  She showed some really nice fire.  Atlas caught her coming off the ropes and slammed her down.  They built up to a multiple person spot where everyone had someone in a head scissors around neck.  Kikutaro turned them over with a chinlock on Jimmy Llloyd while Doom locked on a Boston Crab on the other side.  That was a cool spot.

Owens disrespected Doom with a crotch chop.  That fired her up and she began whipping out German suplexes on everyone.  Kikutaro was too heavy to lift so she lowblowed him, then nailed it.  Owens superkicked her.  Owens began whipping out strikes on Lloyd, who nailed a springboard cutter.   Façade walked the ropes and leapt into a Canadian Destroyer on Lloyd.  Doom grabbed him by the braids and flipped him out of the ring.  Doom nailed a leaping tope into a tornado DDT on the floor.  Minomono almost died on a dive attempt.  To the shock of no one, It turned into all sorts of chaos, but the crowd was into it.  Atlas went for a springboard move off the ropes, but it went a little funky.  Façade hit a springboard 450 splash to the floor.    They all went all out with big moves.  Atlas hit a spinning slam on Doom that looked great.    Atlas has some great physical wrestling moves.  Lloyd spiked him with a piledriver and scored the pin.

Your winner, Jimmy Lloyd!

This was just all kinds of throwing it all against the wall.  Some of it looked spectacular as hell and some of it didn’t click but the effort was tremendous, and the crowd loved it.  Everyone had at least one big spot.  Doom showed a LOT of heart with her work.  Facade is made for these types of matches and looked good.  Jake Atlas had this great physical performance showing he deserves a lot more attention .  

KTB vs. Jacob Fatu

KTB stands for Kyle the Beast.   Fatu is the son of The Tonga Kid aka Tama of the Islanders.    They noted he was wearing a pair of Rikishi's tights from the Samoan SWAT Team era.

They went right after each other.  Fatu tried to use a chair.  Beast powered him into a DDT on the apron.  Beast yelled at the crowd but was hit with a big dive to the floor.  That was DAMN impressive.  They brought a door into the ring and teased doing spots into it after it was placed in the corner.   Fatu nailed a superkick.  They battled back and forth with right hands.  Beast nailed a big spinebuster and KILLED Fatu with an insane spear through the door.  He picked him up for a sit-down powerbomb for another near fall.  This is just two big Hoss monsters fighting it out.  Another door sized piece of wood is brought into the ring.  It is bridged between two chairs.    Fatu made a comeback and drove him through the wood with a Samoan Drop, scoring the pin.

Your winner, Jacob Fatu!

A short but hard-hitting physical match with some hardcore elements.  Fun stuff.
