Booing Dan Barry feels weird, yall. Officer Miller threatens to shut this event down if she sees any potheads here, despite pot being legal here? Radke and Boar fighting over a headlock.

Dan Barry in and says he doesn’t do weed…but do they have some Meth? XD we end this segment on a “meth” chant lollllllll.

Match 3: Brother Greatness vs Eel O’Neal

Prettttttty hype for this one. BG screaming that Eel better not cheat since a sin is not a win. The crowd disagrees. BG pulling hair and it’s clear he doesn’t practice what he preaches. Hard right hard hand but Eel is mad now. Big arm drag! He ties up BG in the ropes, kind of a rope based Figure Four. BG sent to the floor but he posts Eel. He’s jawing with the crowd as he walks Eel down with hard shots but he gets too distracted and Eel just firing back. He goes to the top but Brother throws him off to the floor. At least he didn’t pull the hair this time. He goes for a shining wizard but Eel flapjacks him! Headbutts into the corner! Eel accidentally knocks himself out and falls right into BG’s holy relics. Eel wraps up a crossface! BG fighting back! Huge body slam! Kick out! Eel tries the crossface again. BG tries the wizard…BG rakes the eyes. Shining wizard connects and a flying bulldog ends the contest!

Rich Palladino gives us the bad news that Tony Deppen was unable to get here today so we have a Weber Hatfield open challenge! Who is stepping up to the plate? It’s a lovely challenger! It’s Love Doug!

Match 4: Weber Hatfield vs Love Doug

Doug wants them smooches. He offers a test of love. Doug starts screaming that the power of love compels him as he powers up. Prom pose! Doug on the offensive with armdrags, dropkicks and a monkey flip! Weber dodges the smooches forearm. Dropkick to the side of the head. Running chops in the corner. Hard arm lock drags to the mat.

Match 5: Bobby Orlando vs Shae McCoy vs Hermit Crab vs Big Game Leroy vs Kid Magic vs Van Vallby (The Floor is Lava Battle Royal)

We are assured that the fans are in no danger from the lava. The winner receives a novelty drinking helmet?!? If a wrestler’s feet hit the floor, they’re eliminated. However the goal is to get out to the floor and make it back to the entrance way to retrieve the helmet without touching the floor! Vallby is furious that he wasn’t invited to the match so he’s inviting himself into the match. Ring the bell and everyone destroys Vallby. 5 on 1 tosses Vallby and he dies in the fire. Bobby laid in on the apron but no one can take advantage. Leroy with the switch and Magic steals it. Leroy skins the cat off Vallby’s back! Magic makes Leroy’s save files disappear?!? What a monster! Magic instructs Crab to check Bobby’s pockets…Crab finds a card?!? Orlando’s back in it! He does the Terry Funk spin with a rug? Why is there a rug?!? Leroy with the kamehameha! Magic sent flying and is burning alive! Shae tries to ride him to the helmet but Crab throws Bobby Jr and they both get eliminated. Bobby swings the rug and tries to Scott across the lava to the helmet. Leroy joins him on the carpet raft! Bobby eats a kick and falls into the lava! Crab is down with a pile of gym mats and walks over a fallen Leroy. He’s got a balance beam to the helmet. Leroy and Crab fighting it out on this bridge of death! Kamehameha! Crab is cooked! Leroy walks the bridge and gets the helmet! This was hard to describe but just watch this weird ass match because I love the concept of it. 

Winner: Big Game Leroy

Match 6: Austin Luke vs Karen Bam Bam

This is definitely what you could call a styles clash. Luke trying to stay evasive and taunting but Karen just yeets him from the ring. Luke trying to be flashy but Karen just runs him over. This Bish gettin’ Squished. T-bone! Luke stuns Bam Bam and lands hard shots. Ref Gina trying to get him out the corner but he won’t stop. He goes for an apron ddt but Karen lariats him back into the ring. Elbow drop back in the ring! Hip attack on the ropes! Squish! Luke with an axe kick! Karen ducks, backfist! Running heel kick!!! Kick out! Gina put in harms way, Luke with a pair of head kicks in the confusion and Bam Bam goes to sleep for three.

Main Event: LuFisto vs Kennedi Copeland 

LuFisto is serious as a heart attack. She wants to see how strong this little girl is. Kennedi trying to leverage free and so she settles for kicking her in the head. Copeland goes for the arm bar and LuFisto is right to the rope. Kennedi tries a rollup. Tries a backslide! LuFisto eats a head scissors and another roll up. This is more than the legend expected to get. LuFisto rakes the eyes and sends Kennedi to the apron. Sweep! Running boot sends Copeland to the floor! Hard thudding chops! Kennedi fighting back and Ref Nick Shin tries to get this back in the ring! Hard crossbody into the ropes from LuFisto! LuFisto doing a great job taunting the ref as she gets in and out of the ring!

She goes for the finish….LuFisto with a clothesline! Kennedi firing up with a flurry of chops, paintbrushing LuFisto’s chest. Kicks! LuFisto posts herself! CodebreaKer to the arm! Kennedi sinks in the cross arm breaker! LuFisto digs into the knee and gets free! LuFisto wants a time out? No sorry. Kennedi introduces her to all the buckles on a face first basis. Kennedi trying to focus that arm but LuFisto catches her in a cradle suplex. LuFisto with a kick to the face and backfist for two! LuFisto calls for the burning hammer….Kennedi brings her down into the arm bar again! LuFisto gets the rope! Kennedi tries a running knee…dodge. LuFisto hits the burning hammer off the corner and Copeland is DONE. This was very enjoyable and it’s clear both competitors have this main event their all.
