Mane Event opens with Jeremy Squire and Pierre Roy standing in the ring.

JAKE AARONS
Ladies and gentlemen, this next bout is to be fought over three five minute rounds with one fall, one submission or a knockout to decide the winner! Introducing first from...

A large, burly leaps over the barricade and slides into the ring. Jake Aarons has just enough time to escape before the big man levels Pierre Roy with a big boot. The poor French Canadian's evening isn't over however as his attacker picks him up and hoists him onto his shoulder and delivered a spinning crucifix toss. He puts his foot on Roy's chest as the crowd starts to jeer. Jeremy Squire, having stood back and watched, slaps the big man on the back. The big man turns around and Squire steps back, realizing that may not have been the best idea. He offers his hand in friendship. The big man takes it and the two shake hands. Squire smiles, but as he tries to turn and walk away the big man pulls him back and delivers a clothesline. The two time Light Middleweight Slap Box Champion is picked up and hoisted up on the big man's shoulder and is soon sent spinning in the air with another spinning crucifix toss. The big man starts yelling insults at the crowd as they continue to boo. A movement out of the corner of his eye catches his eye and he turns to see Pierre Roy trying to get to his feet.

CHAD GOMEZ
Stay down, you moron!

The big man laughs. He holds his taped right thumb in the air and as Roy finally gets to his feet, the big man charges and jams his thumb in his throat while he wraps his other arm around his neck and takes him to the mat.

SAM HEWITT
The feared Asian Spike, one of the deadliest moves in pro wrestling. It's actually been banned in several states because of how dangerous it it.

Official flood the ring. A few check on Jeremy Squire, while the rest attempted to pull the big man off Pierre Roy. One official calls for the ring bell to be rung, in a failed attempt to get the beast off Roy and signal more help. The crowd starts screaming for someone to do something... Over the sound system music starts to play. The crowd turns and looks up to the entrance as the Tragically Hip's "New Orleans is Sinking" fills the arena. The curiosity turns to loud boos as the Agents of Pain walk out, flanking Eli Buchanan. Officials confront him, realizing this is his doing and demanding he put an end to his. Eli walks over to the big man and bending down, whispers something in his ear. Immediately the man releases the hold and gets to his feet.

Eli yells at the Agents and one of them brings him a microphone.

ELI BUCHANAN
I'm back!

The crowd starts booing and a few people throw garbage in the ring.

ELI BUCHANAN
Security! {Pointing at the culprits} I want them thrown out of the arena. That sort of thing has no place here!

CHAD GOMEZ
Damn right!

Eli has a look of mock surprise on his face as the crowd continues to jeer.

ELI BUCHANAN
Kingston, I thought you would be more welcoming to the greatest man to ever come out of Ontario.

The crowd boos even louder as Eli and his crew laugh.

ELI BUCHANAN
I know, just like all those morons tuning in on YouTube around the world, you were really hoping to you'd never see me again. After that idiot, Hammerstein...

A loud chant of "HAMMMER! HAMMER! HAMMER!" echos through the crowd.

ELI BUCHANAN
Cheer for him all you want, but you're going to have to go to Seattle or find footage of his matches in Shining Road, because you'll never see him the a Lion's Road ring ever again!

The crowd boos.

ELI BUCHANAN
Go ahead and boo me, you sick bunch of Voyageurs.

CHAD GOMEZ
I knew this town was full of perverts. This afternoon I caught someone watching me in the washroom. He denied it of course but...

SAM HEWITT
I believe he was actually referencing the local sports team.

ELI BUCHANAN
Hammerstein knew that I have a no contact clause in my contract due to my injuries and despite that, he still chose to put his hands on me and hit me with that DDT. Hammerstein doesn't deserve your sympathy, he deserves your disdain! He knew the consequences and he's gotten exactly what he deserved. You will never see Hammerstein in a Lion's Road ring, mark my word on it!

The crowd boos.

ELI BUCHANAN
Speaking of people who you'll never see again, this brings me to my "employee" AJ Knight...

A loud chant of "AJ! AJ! AJ!" echoes through the crowd.

ELI BUCHANAN
I have no idea why you're chanting for that flake. AJ Knight was an even biggest choke artist than that idiot Hammerstein was. Knight had so much potential, and I tried my damnedest to pull that potential out of him, but potential isn't enough! Try as I might I could never save AJ from himself. Every time he found himself in a big match situation he would come so close to winning, only to fall short. If he would have listened to me, he would be King of the Lions Champion right now, but of course he didn't. That ungrateful bastard thought he knew better than me and he thought he was better off than me, so he went and stabbed his boss in the back. He willingly, and with intent, assisted Hammerstein in laying me out, and that's why I had my lawyers hit that worthless son of a bitch with a cease and desist order. I have AJ Knight under contract for the next ten years and it will be a dark day in hell before you EVER see him again in the ring.

??
Don't be so sure, Eli...

ERUPTION! Eli's face turns pale as he slowly turns toward the stage... the crowd growing louder and louder as AJ Knight steps out. The chants of AJ! AJ! AJ! are deafening! The young lion stands tall on the stage, soaking in the hero's welcome while looking very taken aback by it.

AJ KNIGHT
I missed you guys, too! How are the kids, Eli? Nah, sorry, I'll cut the bullshit... Mandy, let's go.

Mandeville Nelson follows AJ down the staging stairs and climbs up the stairs to the ring where the duo come face to face with the four men in the ring.

AJ KNIGHT
Gentlemen... Eli, Agents... and...

AJ sizes up the giant.

AJ KNIGHT
Whatever the hell you call yourself. I suppose you're wondering what I'm doing here tonight... firstly, Eli... your wife is a very generous lady. How you two ended up together is beyond me. She can do so much better than you and I think everyone here agrees.

Knight leans the mic toward the crowd as they begin an "OUT OF YOUR LEAGUE!" chant. Eli's glare turns icy as AJ grins ear to ear, encouraging the chant.

ELI BUCHANAN
You're on limited time so get to your point before my men rip your limbs off.

AJ feigns shock.

AJ KNIGHT
Ooh, big tough guy needs his band of merry men to do his dirty work for him, huh? I'm ashamed to admit it - I was once standing on that side of you, doing your dirty work... but you won't hear any excuses from me. I did what I did, I'm not going to pretend I didn't have a choice in the matter because like I demonstrated in Toronto...

The fans roar.

AJ KNIGHT
I always did. I was just too scared to make that choice sooner, I take full responsibility for my actions and I'm sorry.

Knight sincerely looks to the audience as Eli pretends to cry,

AJ KNIGHT
That's why I'm here tonight because I want to make things right. Your wife, Charlotte gave me everything I needed last week to do just that. It's because of her that I'm here tonight. She sent me a bunch of scripts for Sitcoms, some of which were actually pretty damn funny, but she was very specific about one thing. To make sure I take a look at all the files on the drive. And at the end of all of those scripts I found an video file. Which was dated 6 months ago to the date. December 8th, 2016.

Eli's face turns pale and his jaw drops, AJ grins smugly. He has him right where he wants him and he knows it.

AJ KNIGHT
And that's why I've called you to accompany me, Mandy... can we roll the footage?

Nelson holds his ear piece and nods, the screen comes to life. Security footage rolls from the parking lot, Cordell Garner steps out of his car after parking it. The lights flash and the horn sounds as he locks it. He picks up his bag and begins making his way off camera when an Agent of Pain grabs him from behind and slams him head first against his car knocking him unconscious. The other Agent saunters into the shot, opening up a bag and dropping what appear to be wrist gauntlets near Garner's body. A stage hand comes rushing in, but an Agent hands him a wad of cash and turns him back the way he came as the footage fades.

MANDEVILLE NELSON
So... you were telling the truth all along...

AJ nods and Buchanan stands before them, steaming mad.

ELI BUCHANAN
This changes NOTHING! You signed the contract, you're MINE!

AJ nods slowly.

AJ KNIGHT
Yeah, you're right... I am and you're the only who has the power to release me from that contract. Something I know you're not interested in doing.

ELI BUCHANAN
Hell no! I'd rather die!

AJ KNIGHT
Would this change your mind?

Knight reaches into his pocket, pulls out something and holds it up...

ELI BUCHANAN
YOU SON O--

The Agents are forced to use all their power to restrain Eli, AJ looks up at what he's holding... the red Tiger Mask once worn by Eli Buchanan. Eli is livid, shouting at AJ telling him he's going to hurt him!

AJ KNIGHT
I figured you'd have better security for your office. How does it feel, AJ? You're no longer in control of your own destiny... it's not fun, is it? That's been every day of my life since December 8th... but... I had a choice so I'll give you one: You either release me from that contract, or this little treasure goes up in smoke.

AJ produces a lighter and ignites it, holding it close to the mask while Buchanan kicks his feet at AJ, who backs up to avoid it. Nelson holds his microphone close to Eli.

ELI BUCHANAN
IF YOU DO ANYTHING TO THAT MASK... I'LL DO TO YOU WHAT I DID TO LA CUCARACHA!

AJ KNIGHT
All you gotta do is rele---wait, what?

Nelson and Knight are both curious, Buchanan's anger subsides and he swallows hard.

AJ KNIGHT
This just isn't your night, Eli. Your crimes against myself and Cordell Garner have come to light and now you just admitted that it was the one and only true Tiger Mask Red fighting La Cucaracha at Pollomania's Cinco de Mayo.

AJ rubs his chin.

AJ KNIGHT
Which is weird... I thought... you were out with a concussion, weren't you? Head trauma so severe that you had a NO CONTACT clause put in the contract. That's the whole reason Hammerstein is suspended, right?

Eli is damn near catatonic at this point with AJ standing in front of him with the mask in hand. Buchanan's demeanour is strangely calm.

AJ KNIGHT
You're done, you're defeated... are you going to let me go, or is this going to go?

Knight backs up, drops to the mat and rolls out to the floor holding the lighter close to the mask, awaiting Eli's answer. Eli smiles...

ELI BUCHANAN
Sure, you got it.

The Kingston crowd cheers, but Eli holds up a finger.

ELI BUCHANAN
I don't think I introduced my newest client though... his name is Iron Mack Brody. I'll grant you your freedom for one night. You face him, one on one in a street fight. You win, I'll rip the contract up... but if you lose... you'll be starring in laxative commercials for the next ten years. Deal?

AJ nods.

AJ KNIGHT
You got it.

The crowd cheers.

AJ KNIGHT
Make sure Chewbacca is ready for a fight...

AJ chucks the mask into the crowd, the AOP and Brody dash after it as AJ takes off. Buchanan tries to follow, but Nelson grabs his arm. There are no microphones, but the camera picks up what's said.

MANDEVILLE NELSON
We need to chat...

We return to Mane Event as newcomer Grizzly Gritsenko walks out from the back with his black towel over his head. "How You Like Me Now" by the Heavy plays as he stands on the stage and looks out over the fans before spitting on the stage in disgust before making his way down to the ring slowly.

JAKE AARONS
Ladies and gentlemen, this opening bout is to be fought over three five minute rounds! Introducing first from Japan! He weighs in at one hundred and sixty five pounds! JIN HIRAI~! His opponent from Baton Rouge, Louisiana! He weighs in at one hundred and ninety four pounds! GRIZZLY GRITSENKO!

He climbs the steps and the outside of the turnbuckle, looking into the ring as he slowly takes the towel off his head wraps it around his neck and pulls back, like he was choking himself, sticking his tongue out.

JAKE AARONS
Your referee for this bout is Robbie Morris!

Morris doesn't get a chance to properly get between them as Gritsenko promptly shoves Hirai back into the corner. He delivers a knee to the gut, first class and then grabs Hirai and launches him across the ring into the opposite corner. Gritsenko charges in, but Hirai rushes right toward him... Gritsenko leapfrogs over him. Hirai turns around just as Grizzly does and catches his boot. Grizzly hops in place for a few moments, then goes for an enzuigiri. Hirai ducks it and grabs Grizzly in a rear waist lock. He rolls him backwards for an O'Connor Roll!

1...

...

2-KICK OUT!

Gritsenko gets up and swings wildly, Hirai rolls forward, pops up... but eats three consecutive thigh kicks! After the third, the Grizz dropkicks him! Hirai goes down to the mat and Gritsenko pops back up to his feet. He goes for a running double knee drop, but Hirai rolls away out to the apron. Hirai goes to the floor, then climbs the apron and leaps up to the top rope... he springs off... Grizzly ducks, hits the ropes and catches Hirai with a Grizzly Wizard from behind as he lands! He rolls Hirai onto his back.

1...

...

2...

...

3!

SAM HEWITT
Grizzly Gritsenko looks impressive in his debut! Jin Hirai once again a victim of his own performance - maybe getting a little too flashy.

CHAD GOMEZ
Enough about Jin, the Grizzly dude is where it's at. He's pegged to be Normal John Johnson's partner - I don't see chemistry personally but it should be fun to watch this dude coexist with Johnson and his dorky friend.

Gritsenko exits the ring and heads to the back as stage hands apply ice packs to Hirai's head.

Mane Event returns inside the arena to see a packed crowd going wild from the action they’ve seen so far. “Radio” by Wolfmother begins to play and shortly after, Kevin Moss steps out onto the stage to a moderate pop. There are definitely cheers for “The Infinity Warrior” throughout the arena and Kevin responds with a huge smile. He stops as he crosses the stage, taking in all the positive energy he can while looking out at the crowd. Flashes go off all over the building as cameras are taking pictures of the Lion’s Road newcomer.

SAM HEWITT
This man has been making waves in other promotions for the past few months and just recently signed a deal to work with Lion’s Road.

CHAD GOMEZ
What’s the big deal? This guy calls himself “The Infinity Warrior” and I’m supposed to be impressed? Kevin Moss needs to realize he’s stepping into a whole new world in Lion’s Road.

The energy in the arena continues to build and Kevin turns his attention to the ring. He starts to walk towards the squared circle as his music gets louder. Kevin high-fives his fans while walking down the ramp before a short sprint. He slides under the bottom rope and springs to his feet inside the ring. He raises his arms into the air, much to the pleasure of the Lion’s Road fans who continue to cheer him on. Kevin gestures to the ring announcer who passes him a microphone through the ropes. The music fades while Kevin finds his mark in the center of the ring.

KEVIN MOSS
So...this is Lion’s Road?

The fans in attendance pop. Kevin responds with a smile.

KEVIN MOSS
A lot of people were surprised when they found out I’d be competing here in Lion's Road. For the past few months, I’ve been building momentum in SKYFIRE Wrestling and developing a following. Just to make things clear, I fully expect to compete for both promotions on a full-time basis. That was never a question. See, the movement I’m leading is so important that I feel I need to spread it across our entire industry. I will go anywhere that I’m needed just to lend a helping hand. For those of you that aren’t familiar with me or my mission, I am targeting those who don’t follow the rules and discredit this business just to get ahead or destroy lives. For far too long, professional wrestling has been held hostage by lunatics and assholes that don’t care about the fans or providing a quality product. I’m putting an end to that.

Another round of cheers from the crowd, this time even louder. Kevin’s tone has become more serious as he speaks.

KEVIN MOSS
It didn’t take me very long to find out how dark this business can be. I didn’t spend most of my life learning martial arts and the benefits of fighting with honor just to throw it all away now. The backstabbing, sneak attacks, or just straight up rule breaking is far too common in our sport. Yes, I do consider this a sport. I believe the fans show up, expecting quality competition from well-trained athletes, and it is our responsibility to deliver. If there is someone taking short cuts or deliberately trying to hurt other athletes, I’ll be there. In fact, I’ll fight until my last breath to try and rid our business of the scum.

Kevin pulls the microphone away from his mouth. He uses his jacket sleeve to wipe his brow before continuing to address the crowd.

KEVIN MOSS
And when I come after you, I’m never alone. I bring with me all the positive energy that the fans offer up to the movement. “The Infinity Warrior” harvests that energy and uses it to destroy any nefarious force that stands in my way. So if you are used to walking around this place, doing whatever you please with no repercussions, I’m here to tell you that those days are over. It might not be immediately, but your time will come. You will answer to the people. You will answer to me. Once you’re on my radar, I will come and find you. Trust me, you don’t want Kevin Moss looking for you.

CHAD GOMEZ
Is this guy for real?

SAM HEWITT
A very passionate Kevin Moss making his plans known to the Lion’s Road fans.

KEVIN MOSS
Right now, I’m still getting settled in. I haven’t had a chance to talk to anyone about when I’ll be booked or who I’ll meet in my debut match. I told them I’m ready to go now, but I’m leaving this in the hands of the booking team to figure out. I’ll trust whatever decision they make. For my peers in the back, take a moment and really figure out which side of good versus evil you’ve been sitting on. Because if you want to avoid a confrontation with “The Infinity Warrior,” then I’d suggest making some changes right now before it’s too late.

Kevin drops the mic in the center of the ring. His music begins playing while the fans give him one more round of cheers. Kevin rolls out of the ring and walks towards the back as the shot fades to black.

We come back from break to see El Mariachi Magica nail Matt Stone with a baseball slide dropkick! Stone crashes into the guardrail and Magica briefly plays to the crowd before following up with a kick to the thigh! He chops Stone and grabs him, intending to whip him into another guardrail but Stone reverses it and poor Magica goes crashing into it full bore! Stone grabs Magica by his mask and pulls him away from the rail, he clamps on a front chancery and tells the fans they're about to witness real magic! He hoists Magica up... holding him in the air briefly before bringing him down hard on the floor! The fans gasp at the sound of the impact, Xavier Price abandons his count and comes out to check on both men. Stone is up and rolls inside the ring by the time Price gets down in position to check on Magica, Manuel Villalobos tries to shoo Price away but Magica rolls onto his stomach, gets to his knees and drags himself back inside the ring while his manager and the referee are arguing.

SAM HEWITT
I can't say I fully understand Manuel Villalobo's approach to El Temerario.

CHAD GOMEZ
Who? That's El Mariachi Magica in the ring, Sambo.

Stone grabs a hold of the mask and pulls Magica to his feet, he smashes him into the top turnbuckle and backs off to yell for Price to get back inside the ring. He forearms Magica in the back and then turns him around in the corner... he Irish whips him across... the masked luchador hits the corner hard! Stone runs in, leaps up... ONE! TWO! THREE! FOUR! FIVE! SIX! SEVEN! EIGHT! NINE! TE-Stone keeps his fist raised as he looks out at the Kingston crowd and cackles away, calling them all sheep! Magica comes to life! He charges out of the corner, Stone trying to hang on for dear life! Stone gets planted in the opposite corner and Magica points to the opposite corner. The fans begin cheering and Magica rushes back to the corner where they came from and comes storming across the ring... ONLY TO RUN INTO STONE'S BOOT! With the luchador staggered, Stone jumps on his chance and nails the STOwned!

1...

...

2...

...

NO!

Stone clamps on a side headlock and squeezes tightly, the fans begin chanting TEMERARIO! Villalobos tells them to shut up, Stone shakes his head no as the luchador gets up to his feet and tries to throw Stone forward and escape the side headlock. No such luck however... Magica instead slings him backwards into the turnbuckle and Price calls for a break! The bell sounds to end the first round. Villalobos gets on the apron and yells at Magica, who initially listens but then turns around and ignores him. The next round begins, Magica takes his frustration into war with him - swinging wildly at Stone, but it gets ducked. A rear waist lock applied, he tries to German suplex Magica but he lands on his feet and leaps onto Stone's shoulders... VICTORY ROLL!

1...

...

2...

...

KICK OUT!

Stone kicks out and roars to his feet, Magica dodges his attack and springs off the second rope... TORNILLO~! Stone goes down and rolls out of the ring, Magica gathers speed bouncing off the ropes TWICE and then nails a beautiful bullet tope! Magica grabs Stone and throws him back inside the ring, he scurries up to the top and turns his back to the ring. Villalobos rushes up, yelling at him to get down... Magica responds by hopping down off the turnbuckles and then stepping off the apron. He gets in Villalobos face and begins unlacing his mask, he rips it off and reveals EL TEMERARIO underneath! Villalobos scolds his client, but the Daredevil luchador throws the mask in the face of his manager. Villalobos goes to slap him, but Temerario catches his arm... he looks to the crowd, who are very clear in their desire to see him struck down... but Matt Stone crashes the party! He slams Temerario from behind with a forearm, he chucks him into the ring and slides in behind him... stalking him. Temerario gets up... C-C-C-COMBO BREAKER~! The double knee facebuster connects! Stone covers!

1...

...

2...

...

3!

Stone stands up, raising his arms as he facewashes Temerario with his boot. Manuel Villalobos gets up on the apron, holds the ropes open for the approaching Stone who rightly proceeds warily. There is squabble between those two, but Temerario isn't so lucky. His enraged manager enters the ring.

CHAD GOMEZ
Oh boy! El Jefe doesn't look happy at all! Looks like it may be be back to serving chips and Guacamole for old Temerario!

SAM HEWITT
Sam Hewitt: El Temerario has had enough of being under the thumb of Manuel Villalobos and having his family legacy buried beneath this El Mariachi Magica ridiculousness.

MANUEL VILLALOBOS
You idiot! You stupid idiot! All you had to do was listen to me. All you had to do was follow my plan! But no! Your Orgullo de la familia, your family pride, wouldn't allow it! Now look at you, *sarcastically* El Temerario, you went from loser to winner and now back to loser.

Viallobos grabs the black El Mariachi Magica mask and the guitar

MANUEL VILLALOBOS
Put the mask on. I SAID PUT THE DAMN MASK ON, BASTARDO!

Temerario puts the Mariachi mask back on, as the crowd boos. Villalobos holds out the guitar.

MANUEL VILLALOBOS
Take the guitaro! TAKE THE GODDAMN GUITAR! OR DO YOU WANT YOUR MOTHER TO DIE ON THE STREETS OF MEXICO CITY LIKE SOME SICK PERRO?

Temerario bows his head and takes the guitar. A sinister grin crosses Villalobos’ face.

SAM HEWITT
This is, frankly, hard to watch, seeing a man break another man’s spirit by threatening his sick mother.

CHAD GOMEZ
This just proves you don't cross El Jefe, Sambo.

Villalobos looks very happy as Temerario holds the guitar, ready to play, with his head bowed.

MANUEL VILLALOBOS
Much better. Much better. Now, before you…. play a little tune, I want you to apologize for your actions.

Temerario emphatically shakes his head no. Villalobos’ smile grows wider.

MANUEL VILLALOBOS
No, idiota! Apologize….to your mother!

The crowd boos Villalobos who ses intent on stripping the luchador of any pride left. Temerario nods his head. Villalobos holds the mic in front of his face.

EL TEMERARIO
Lo siento, Madre.
(I'm sorry, Mother)
Lo siento, no lo hice antes!
(I'm sorry I didn't do this sooner!)

With that, Temerario draws the guitar back and crushes it over Villalobos’ head. El Jefe crumples to the mat as the crowd cheers.

CHAD GOMEZ
EL KABONG!

Temerario rips the black mask off and slams it down on Villalobos’ unconscious body. The luchador picks up the microphone e and gets right in the unconscious manager’s face.

EL TEMERARIO
¡Mi nombre no es El Mariachi Mágica! Mi nombre es El Temerario! ¡Y estoy libre!
(My name is not El Mariachi Magica! My name is El Temerario! And I am free!)

Temerario jumps out of the ring and begins shaking hands with the cheering fans at ringside before making his way to the back.

JAKE AARONS
Ladies and gentlemen, this main event bout is to be fought over three five minute rounds with one fall, one submission or a knockout to decide the winner!

The Smiths' "Panic" begins as Ben Chrenshaw strolls out across the stage, Great Lakes Tag Team title draped over his shoulder and a smirk across his face. He saunters down the stairs, paying no mind to the fans as he makes his way to the ring.

JAKE AARONS
Introducing first from London, England! He weighs in at two hundred and thirteen pounds! BEN CHRENSHAW!

"Gangster's Paradise" by Coolio begins to play as the lights all shut off. Flash bulbs go off everywhere as the curtain is pushed aside and Robb Daniels and his wife, Lauren emerge from the back. Daniels is all business, walking down the staging stairs and then climbing up on the apron, holding the ropes open for his wife then wiping his boots off before stepping through himself.

JAKE AARONS
His opponent from Knoxville, Tennessee! He weighs in at two hundred and thirty five pounds! ROBB DANIELS!

He circles the ring, removing his robe and sunglasses and handing them off to a stage hand. He holds the ropes so his wife can leave the ring as Aarons finishes up his announcements.

JAKE AARONS
Your referee for this bout is Cordell Garner!

Referee Cordell Garner calls for the opening bell in our main event's first round. Ben Chrenshaw and Robb Daniels circle around, sizing each other up... Daniels goes for a lock-up but the Crippler knees him in the gut. A double axe handle to the back follows it up, Chrenshaw grabs his former partner and drags him over to the corner where he attempts to bash his head off the top turnbuckle but Daniels gets his hands on the ropes and blocks it! Chrenshaw goes to try it again, but Daniels hoofs him in the sternum with a back elbow smash! Chrenshaw staggers backwards, Daniels grabs him and unleashes a mighty European uppercut! Chrenshaw is sent stumbling away and grabs onto the ropes to keep his balance, Daniels forearms him in the face and looks to Irish whip him across but it gets countered. Daniels hits the ropes, Chrenshaw catches him with a calf kick! Daniels falls to his knees, the Crippler gets up and grabs Daniels... charging him into the top turnbuckle! Daniels falls to the mat and Chrenshaw walks away with a smirk on his face.

SAM HEWITT
Nearly a year ago, Robb Daniels and Ben Chrenshaw were two of the top fighters in Lion's Road - Daniels held the King of the Lions while Chrenshaw had captured and lost the Heritage before winning the Iron Championship in a gruelling Best of 3 Series with Matt Pulver. The tag team tournament was announced and these two men tried to squeeze their egos and singles success into a tag team. The result was not as planned - they dropped their first round tournament bout to Black Lion's Road albeit by count out. They earned a title match a month or so later but came up short - losing to Matt Pulver and Kenshin Takamura. The duo quietly split up after that.

CHAD GOMEZ
Some fans might even recall a small, but significant exchange back in Green Bay on November 10th. Ben Chrenshaw had just had his nose broken and lost his Iron title to James Edwards, Robb Daniels was heading out to fight in his rematch with Julian Cutlass and told Chrenshaw that he'd show him how it's done. Daniels was on the losing side of his match also...

SAM HEWITT
Indeed, the two men looked to be on a collision course but Daniels would be soundly defeated by Corey Cruelty in Duluth on December 1st and until just a few weeks ago - that had been his last appearance in the territory.
