As a note from last week, they had massive sound issues, but this week, they have those resolved and the show’s sound was much better. 

Orange Cassidy vs Johnny TV

They lock up and go to arm bars and reversals. Cassidy mocks his spinning and twisting with his reversal. They run the ropes with Cassidy’s hands in his pockets, and Cassidy steals TV’s sunglasses. TV is knocked to the floor and when TV is rolled into the ring, Cassidy tosses the sunglasses to a kid. TV tries for a standing moonsault, but Cassidy rolls out of the way.  This is more a match showing Cassidy’s shenanigans than we have had in a while.

The Beast Mortos vs Hologram

The crowd actually chants for Hologram.  

Mortos gets an arm drag when they run the ropes, and while Hologram can’t get one, he does get a tejaris. They trade big high-flying moves rapidly, and the story is that Hologram isn’t big enough to match power with Mortos, but can get a move in when he gets leverage and speed. Mortos gets a power slam for two. Mortos goes for a gorilla press, but Hologram escapes out the back, but Mortos drops him with a pounce as we go to picture in picture.

When we return to full screen, Hologram dodges attacks in the corners by going through the ropes. He then gets a spinning tejaris when he goes around Mortos at least three times. They go to the top and Mortos gets a sit down slam while holding Hologram in an arm bar for one. Hologram gets a back body drop on Mortos onto the apron where he then lays in kicks. He tries for a Canadian Destroyer, but “doesn’t get all of it” on the apron.

Hologram then runs the ropes and hits a swanton from the top rope to Mortos on the floor. Hologram leaps onto Mortos on the floor. Mortos is rolled into the ring and Hologram comes off the top, but Mortos catches him. Hologram is able to reverse it into a poisonrana for two. Hologram follows with a spin kick. Mortos gets a pair of back breakers and a discus clothesline for two. 

Mortos goes to the top and Hologram joins him there. Hologram gets a hurricanrana from the top and then walks the ropes for a crucifix bomb for the pin and the win.

Winner: Hologram

The crowd is really into him, but if he is going to use a lot of the high risk moves, he needs to tighten it up a bit, as his character really needs to be precise to get over, in my opinion.  Mortos was a good opponent to focus on speed vs power.

Thunder Rosa vs the Already In The Ring Maya World

After losing her feud with Deonna Purrazzo, Rosa needs to get a win, and she does here after showing over arm drags, dropkicks and the other stuff in her moveset. She gets the win with a camel clutch.

Winner: Thunder Rosa

Rosa says that Purrazzo has put her in the darkest place and will drag Purrazzo in with her.

We are shown Lance Archer in the back beating up anyone he can get his hands on backstage and people should not be in line for the American title. And he has beat people up in Dallas before and he will do it again.

Briscoe works over Nese and hits him with a sheer drop brainbuster for two. Nese gets a jawbreaker and his team triple teams Briscoe for two. Woods is tagged in and Kyle gets a blind tag. Time for everyone to take a big move from the last person in the ring.

He gets a couple of moves before he is triple teamed. Ishii knocks Sterlin off the apron and Kyle gets the Jugi Kitame slam on Woods and Woods taps out.,

He says he’s not through with Suzuki. And then he says now that Shibata is back, they are coming for him, since Hook and Samoa Joe aren’t around to save him.

Lance Archer charges the ring after one of the people he was stroking in the back. His unnamed opponent tries a dive onto him, and Archer choke slams him on the apron. Archer then chokeslams him twice and then hits the blackout for the pin and the win.
