PWGP “CHARGE” opens with a video package from last week were we rewitness Deedee Gagnon declaring that The Invaders are now in control and we see that Asper’s Army had aligned themselves with them. Television Champion Bryant Adam Thompson makes short work of Unknown 1 in a title match, thanks in part to Mack Brody destroying Unknown 2 at ringside. Alan Hunter is shown being destroyed by an enraged BOB and being fired by Gagnon on his way out of the PWGP Exhibition Centre on a stretcher. True North Ant is show being berated by Gagnon before the International Tag Team Title Match and we see him refusing to help The Agents of Pain defeat The East K Connection for the titles, leading to Agent D getting put through a table and Agent B pinned after a double superkick. Finally we witness as Eli Buchanan, hook or by crook, slowly make his way through all the Invader members in a gauntlet match for the Global Title before coming face to face with Daimon, who absorbs a fireball without being fazed and repeatedly chokeslaming Eli before putting him through the burning announce boot and finishing him off with a choke breaker in the middle of the ring. Gagnon fires Buchanan as he’s attending by medics and the video ends with her celebrating with Riel in the ring.
We go live to the PWGP Exhibition Centre and are greeted to the show by That Masked Guy, El Hombre Loco Enmascarado, and Saul Asper. The Invaders appointed General Manager, Deedee Gagnon standing in the ring. She announces that there will be changes to tonight’s show as GRIM and Jin Hirai were supposed to take part in a fatal four team match for the International Tag Team Titles but they’ve returned to Japan instead and have foolishly severed all ties with The Invaders. She sarcastically wishes them the best in their future endeavors and states that she’ll have to name another team to replace them, which she will do so later in the evening.
Gagnon calls The Unknowns to ringside and apologizes to them about what happened last week, calling the attack by members of The Invaders and Asper’s Army “unfortunate”. She wants to make it up to the two though, and informs us all that next week HAMMERSTEIN will be in the PWGP Exhibition Centre to defend the Seattle Pro Wrestling World Heavyweight Title. Gagnon tells The Unknowns that she’s booking them in a match right now to determine HAMMERSTEIN’s challenger. The Unknowns are excited and readily agree. It’s only then that Gagnon reveals to them this won’t be a one on one match, but a triple threat match instead and points to the entrance way to introduce their opponent, “Iron” Mack Brody!
MATCH 1
Triple Threat Rules
(Winner to receive a Seattle Pro Wrestling World Title shot next week)
“Iron” Mack Brody
vs
Unknown 1 & 2
(Referee: Eddie Tims)
The moment Gagnon exits the ring, Brody steamrolls over The Unknowns with a double clothesline. He lifts Unknown 2 up and hits the Iron Cross (spinning release Canadian backbreaker). He waits for Unknown 1 to get to feet and nails him with a running lariat clothesline before dragging him back to his feet and locking in the Asian Spike. Unknown 1 fades quickly and Eddie Tims wisely calls for the bell to put this massacre to an end.
Winner: and going on to face HAMMERSTEIN for the Seattle Pro Wrestling World Title next week, “Iron” Mack Brody.
Deedee Gagnon gets back in the ring and raises Brody’s hand in victory. Meanwhile Saul Asper gets to his feet at the announce booth and brags on his client. He predicts we’re looking at the next Seattle Pro Wrestling World Champion. He leaves the announce booth to join Gagnon and Brody in the ring, leaving Loco to wonder if anyone can stop “The Invading Army” from conquering the whole wrestling industry and quing us to go to break.

In the back we find find the International Tag Team Champions, Easy E and Sweet Daddy D preparing for their title match later tonight. They rise to their feet and greet True North Ant as he enters and thank him for helping them out last week against The Agents of Pain. TNA waves off their gratitude, stating he was tired of the way he was being treated by everyone “on that side” and should never have gotten involved with Asper and his goons in the first place. The trio discuss how tonight things are going to be even harder tonight with the fatal fourway for the titles and Easy E brings up TNA’s match with Daimon. True North Ant is clearly nervous about facing the monster, especially after what happened to Eli Buchanan last week.
He wishes both member of The East K Connection the best of luck and turns to leave, only to come face to face with his former Strange Brew partner, Philly Cheese Snake. TNA tries to apologize to him for everything he’s done but Philly doesn’t want to hear it. He states EKC might have forgiven him for everything he’s done but he hasn’t forgotten how TNA tried to end his career two years ago and it’s going to take a lot more than what he did last week for him to believe he’s turned over a new leaf. He leaves before True North Ant can say anything, leaving TNA looking upset.

Elsewhere, Deedee Gagnon is holding a meeting with other members of the roster, who are grumbling their discontent over what has transpired since last week. Gagnon tells them that they have nothing to fear, The Invaders are only trying to weed out those who have been foolish enough to stand opposed to them and as long as everyone does their jobs they have nothing to fear from the new leadership. To show a token of her good will towards the roster, she introduces the PWGP 24/7 Championship; a title that will be defended at all times, pinfalls or submissions count anywhere and there are no rules.
Gagnon hands the title to referee Eddie Tims, who she tells to take to the ring. She informs the roster all they have to do to become the first 24/7 Champion is to be the first to make it to the ring to retrieve it, but they better watch their backs because once retrieved that title can change as often as possible. Gagnon blows a whistle and the roster runs off, leaving Gagnon smiling mischievously.
***
We return to inside the Exhibition Centre and the 24/7 Title is shown lying in the middle of the ring. The crowd cheers as members of the locker room dash out from the back and try to be the first to make it to the title.
Orville Newton is the first to make it to the ring but he’s dragged out of the ring by Vod and Zaros of Surf ’n Turf and thrown into the barricade. Big O retaliates on behalf of his partner, tackling both masked men and all three are down at ringside. Meanwhile Vlars is fighting with The Technician and Axel Moros and trying to shake off both Things Uno and Dos, who are both on his back. BOB is attacking everything that moves, while The Guru is shouting out directions behind him.
Everywhere you look wrestlers are fighting with one another to be the first one to get to the championship. They’re all so busy that they don’t even notice James Daniels come through the crowd. He’s wearing a shirt with the phrase “The Real High Five” on it. He scoops up the title and starts celebrating.
1st Ever PWGP 24/17 Champion: James Daniels (1st reign)
Daniels acts as if this is the greatest moment of his life, but his smile quickly turns to a frown the moment ring announcer Nick Christoulos announces him as Champion and all the eyes of the roster at ringside turn to him. He tries to run away but the roster surrounds the ring. He looks for a way to escape but gets speared by the goblin Zaros. He tries to pin Daniels but the pinfall is broken up by Thing Dos, who goes for the pin himself. That cover is broken up by Jeremy Squire and soon the ring is filled with wrestlers, all trying to become champion.
In the midst of all the chaos around him, James Daniels somehow crawls out of the ring and lands hard on the arena floor. He tries to sneak back out the same way he came in through the crowd, but gets spotted by someone in the ring. Realizing he’s in a lot of trouble, Daniels makes a dash for it, leaping over the barricade and through the audience. The whole ring empties out and several take off after him as we go to break.
***
Back from break and we find James Daniels running through the backstage area, trying to make his way to his car. He makes it to an exit but gets stopped by Deedee Gagnon. Despite his protests she tell him he’s not allowed to leave the centre until the end of the night, which means if he wants to survive as champion, he still has a long night ahead of him.
Daniels tries to protest more but gets hit across the back of the head with a steel bucket and crumbles to the ground. Vlars quickly covers Daniels and referee Mark Lindsey makes the three count.
New PWGP 24/7 Champion: The Puke God, Vlars (1st reign)
Vlars doesn’t have a chance to celebrate his victory. His former protege, Zaros, sneaks up behind him and school boys him for a quick three count.
New PWGP 24/7 Champion: Zaros (1st reign)
The goblin quickly takes off with the title before either of the other men can recover, leaving us to return to the ring.
***
MATCH 2
PWGP Television Title Match
Bryant Adam Thompson (champion, with Saul Asper)
vs
Goober the Gooker
(Referee: Eddie Tims)
Nick Christoulos joins Loco at the announce booth for this match, as Asper fulfills his managerial duties. They discuss the fact that Thompson disguised himself at Goober to win the vacant Television Title at “War Games” and the turkey man was granted this match. In fact Goober appears to think he’s actually the champion, coming to the ring with a toy version of the title that he clearly took from our merchandise table without paying for.
The match begins with back and forth chain wrestling and we’re reminded that despite his zany appearance, Goober is quite the gifted wrestler. At one point he nearly lock Thompson in the Crossface Turkey Wing and the champion is forced to grab the ropes to force the break and quickly exits to the floor to regain his composure.
Asper jumps up on the apron and starts arguing with Eddie Tims about how the Crossface Turkey Wing is a blatant choke hold. While the two argue, Máscara de Tigre Negro slides out from beneath the ring and climbs to the top rope. He hits Goober with a flying double knee attack and quickly scurries back out of the ring before Tims can turn around.
Thompson quickly slides back in the ring and hits Goober with a spinning roundhouse kick. He quickly follows up with the Bat Outta Hell and picks up the easy three count victory.
Winner: and still PWGP Television Champion, “The Notorious B.A.T.” Bryant Adam Thompson
After the match both Loco and Christoulos complain how Thompson was literally handed another victory without really having to earn it. They put Goober over as a good competitor but state there was no way he was even on the Champion’s level and Thompson didn’t need Máscara de Tigre Negro to help him out like that.
Back in the ring Thompson and Asper act as if nothing illegal has happened and celebrate yet another victory.
***
Zaros is spotted slinking through the back, his title in hand. He meets up with his partner Vod and the two of them celebrate together. Vod suddenly scoops the goblin up and slams him down on a stack of crates and Mark Lindsey is there to make the three count.
New PWGP 24/17 Champion: Vod (1st reign)
Zaros immediately protests what his partner just did. Their “queen”, Gertrude Quest arrives to defuse the situation. She tells them it doesn’t matter which of them is champion and they need to work together to make it through the rest of the show with the title. Both of Surf ‘n Turf agree and the three take off, looking for a safe place to hang low for the rest of the night.
***
In Gagnon’s office we find Bryant Adam Thompson complaining to her about what Loco and Christoulos said at the end of his match. He demands Gagnon fire them but Deedee replies that PWGP’s parent company, Buck U Productions, has filed an injunction preventing her from firing anyone else. She calls their group “The Invading Army”, crediting the name to Loco, and says once they win the match on September 30th and take full control of PWGP they’ll be looking for yet another play-by-play man and a new ring announcer. Until then, she feels perhaps the two men had a point. She announces that next week Thompson will defend the Television Title against Goober for a second time, but this time Thompson needs to prove he can do it on his own without anyone to assist him. Thompson scoffs at the notion and says he’ll beat Goober faster than he did tonight and prove to the world why he is the greatest Television Champion of all time.
***
Saul Asper is laughing as we return to ringside and starts joking to Loco that he better not get too comfortable with his position here because he won’t be here much longer. That, he says, will bring him almost as much pleasure as what’s about to happen next.
True North Ant makes his way down to the ring. He and Asper start arguing and Asper promises that he’ll be getting taken out on a stretcher “just like Eli”.
Riel comes out next with a live microphone in his hand. He brags about what the newly christened “Invading Army” has done and how his “internal demon” is the Global Champion. He tells everyone in the PWGP Exhibition Centre and everyone watching around the world that until Eli Buchanan, Daimon will be a fighting champion. Every time he appears in singles action he will be defending the PWGP Global Title. Why? Because no one can beat Daimon and everyone knows that. By putting the title on the line it gives his victims just a little glimmer of hope to make them fight harder, which will make crushing them that more sweet. Riel gets in the ring and asks True North Ant if he’s ready to go to hell, because hell is about to come to him.
The lights go off and once again when they come back up Riel is replaced my the monster Daimon
MATCH 3
PWGP Global Title Match
Daimon (champion)
vs
True North Ant
(Referee: Andrew Roller)
At the beginning of the match, Loco points that Philly Cheese Snake has come out on stage to watch the match. Asper replies that he’s probably here to watch his former friend get slaughtered and if he’s smart he’ll sit back, watch the show and not get involved.
Daimon begins to stock True North Ant right at the bell. He corners him but TNA is able to roll out of the way and slides out under the bottom rope. Andrew Roller begins to count but Daimon grabs his hand and shakes his head. More than a bit frightened, Roller stops counting and backs away from the monster as he steps over the top rope and hops to the arena floor. True North Ant grabs a chair and swings it at him but Daimon catches it. He rips the chair from his hands and tosses it behind him as TNA starts backing away. True North Ant rolls back into the ring. Daimon goes to follow, showing his agility by hoping up on the apron. No sooner does the monster do that though, then True North Ant charges forwards and spears him between the ropes, sending both men crashing to the floor.
The crowd cheers and Loco points out that this is the first time we’ve seen anyone take Daimon off his feet since he first appeared nearly three months ago. True North Ant is first to stir, getting to his hands and knees. He falls backwards though as Daimon sits straight up and quickly gets to his feet as if nothing has happened. The monster tries to gran TNA, but the ant ducks and drop kicks him to the knee. Daimon stumbles back a step but otherwise seems unaffected. TNA dives in an effort to take out the monster’s knee but instead receives a boot to the face. True North Ant gets to his feet on shaky legs and immediately is grabbed by the throat and chokeslammed on the ring apron by Daimon.
Asper points out how he has seems to have a limited moveset but everyone thing he does it devastating and he absolutely loves it.
Daimon tosses True North Ant back into the ring. He picks him up and slams him with ease. He does it a second time and TNA cries out in pain. Daimon picks him up by the throat and tosses him in the corner. He starts choking him while Andrew Roller pleads with him to stop. The monster lets go of the illegal move and tosses him to the mat before turning his attention to the turnbuckle cover, which he rips off and tosses to the floor. He picks TNA up and effortlessly nails a powerbomb on the exposed steel buckle. Andrew Roller looks like he’s ready to call for the bell but a look from Daimon stops him cold and he backs away.
The monster drags True North Ant back to his feet and grabs him by the throat for the second time. He hits a choke slam but refuses to go for the cover. Instead he lifts him up again and hits a third choke slam. This time he places a foot across TNA’s chest and Andrew Roller makes a quick three count to insure this match is over.
Winner: and still PWGP Global Champion, Daimon.
Following the match it would appear Daimon isn’t quite done yet. Much to Asper’s delight, he lifts True North Ant and sets him up for a choke breaker. After watching the whole match from the stage without so much as budging, Philly Cheese Snake suddenly dashes down to the ring and grabs TNA’s foot, dragging him from the ring. Before Daimon can react, he and Roller quickly exit with the injured wrestler through the crowd, leaving an angry Daimon staring after them as they disappear.
***
Gertrude Quest is congratulating her own brilliance, as she and Surf ‘n Turf hide in the boiler room. She tells her men they only have to last out a twenty minutes or so until tonight’s show is done and then they can escape with Vod still in possession on the 24/7 Title.
The three of them are so caught up in their plan that they don’t even notice the shadowy figures slipping up behind them. Vod suddenly gets hit on the back of the head with a 2x4 and Zaros takes a shot of it to the gut. James Daniels quickly covers Vod and referee Mark Lindsey makes the count.
New 24/7 Champion: James Daniels (2nd reign)
He quickly departs with the title while Quest berates her men for not being ready for this and exits the boiler room. Only to walk right into The Guru and BOB, with the latter grabbing him by the scruff of the shirt. Daniel immediately turned to Mark Lindsey and tells him that he gives up and the referee awards the title to the green faced goliath.
New 24/7 Champion: BOB (1st reign)
The Guru immediately has BOB release Daniels and thanks him for his cooperation. As the two walk off, the smarmy manager can be heard telling BOB he did the right thing coming back to his services and crowing about how easy this was.
Meanwhile Daniels looks at Lindsey and shrugs. He tells the referee it was good while it lasted and at least he can say he was the first 24/7 Champion, with Lindsey pointing out he was the first two time champion as well. This seems to brighten Daniels up and he rushes off to, saying he has another shirt to make.
***
We return to ringside where Loco speculates that no one will probably be looking to become 24/7 Champion as long as BOB has it. Asper adds he’s glad BOB and The Guru are allies with The Invading Army because none of them want him as an enemy, especially now he’s legally allowed to do whatever he likes as 24/7 Champion.
The East K Connection make their way down to the ring for their defense of the PWGP International Tag Team Titles. They have a huge task ahead of them tonight as they must defend the titles against three other teams and they only know who two of them are.
Once again Saul Asper leaves the announce booth, this time to meet up with The Agents of Pain on the entrance ramp. Asper can be heard saying that tonight is the night he finally manages the Tag Team Champions.
Out next is The Guru with the Moondogs. The Guru is still beaming from BOB’s win of the 24/7 Title. He whispers something to his team as they head down to the ring and you can only speculate they’re discussing strategy for the match.
Deedee Gagnon comes out on stage and immediately receives a negative reaction from the crowd. She tells The East k Connection that even though she can’t fire them, she can still make their lives miserable. That starts here tonight when she finally gets the International Tag Team Titles off them. She introduces the third team and the crowd immediately groan. Out steps Kraken and “Iron” Mack Brody and the other three teams realize this match has suddenly been taken to the next level.
Before “Krack and Mack” even make it to the ring, The Moondogs and The Agents of Pain jump on Easy E and Sweet Daddy D. Andrew Roller calls for the bell and the match begins.
MAIN EVENT
MATCH 4
PWGP International Tag Team Title Match
(Fatal Fourway Rules)
The East K Connection (champions, Easy E and Sweet Daddy D)
vs
The Agents of Pain (Agents B & D, with Saul Asper)
vs
The Moondogs (Buster and Runt, with The Guru)
vs
The Krack and Mack Connection (Kraken and “Iron” Mack Brody, with Saul Asper)
(Referee: Andrew Roller)
Nick Christoulos quickly joined Loco at the commentary table for the main event. The Agents and Moondogs continued to beat down on the champions as Kraken and Brody made their way into the ring. Andrew Roller tried his best to gain some sense of order in the match but the three heel teams didn’t pay him any attention. He finally asked the managers to help him out but they simply shrugged their shoulders and said told him his only job was to count the pin.
Kraken and Brody climbed into the ring and Brody could be heard yelling at the other teams to pick the champions up and hold them. The two big team began throwing fists at the helpless champions. All six men laughed as they continued to punish the champions, continuing to simple beat then down rather than end the match. Easy E and Sweet Daddy D appeared almost unable to remain on their feet but the other three teams didn’t seem ready to put them away and there was no clear indication who would be the appointed team to become the next International Tag Team Champions.
Finally Kraken and Brody bounced off the ropes and clubbed the held champions with stiff body blows. They went to the well one more time but somehow the champions broke free, causing Kraken and Brody to crash into the other teams. The crowd started cheering loudly as Easy E and Sweet Daddy D managed to dump the two men over the top rope. Easy E grabbed Buster and Sweet Daddy D grabbed Agent B and they rolled both of them up as Roller counted three on both men.
The noise of the crowd grew even louder and Christoulos stood up to announce the winners, when Deedee Gagnon marched back out on stage. She said the match would not end like this, that she had neglected to point out it was an elimination match. Yes that meant The Agents of Pain and The Moondogs were both eliminated but that meant The East K Connection still had to beat one last team to successfully retain the titles.
The crowd began booing, but their protests fell on deaf ears. Kraken and Brody attacked the champions from behind and the crowd began throwing garbage at them. The two big men ignore the tash pelting them and even used the champions as shields to block some of it. Easy E and Sweet Daddy D tried to fight back but the damage they had already received in the match was to much and it was only a matter of time before the end came. Sweet Daddy D was unceremoniously tossed from the ring by Kraken. Brody picked up Easy E and dropped him with the Iron Cross before Kraken finished him off with a big splash. Andrew Roller made the three count, handed the titles to the new champions and held their hands up in victory before leaving the ring in disgust.
Winners: and NEW PWGP International Tag Team Champions, The Krack and Mack Connection!
The new champions celebrated in the ring with their manager. Soon the other member so The Invading Army made their way down to the ring and they all congratulated Kraken and Brody of becoming the win, while The East K Connection laid motionless on the arena floor.
Loco brings up the fact that this group now controls all the major gold in the company and next week they could add even more. Can the Seattle Pro Wrestling World Champion HAMMERSTEIN withstand this group next week when he defends his championship against “Iron” Mack Brody, or will The Invading Army add yet another championship to their ever growing pile?
Until then. In the meantime and in between time… Good night, God bless and may the Force be with you.

Despite his protests she tell him he’s not allowed to leave the centre until the end of the night, which means if he wants to survive as champion, he still has a long night ahead of him.
Daniels tries to protest more but gets hit across the back of the head with a steel bucket and crumbles to the ground. Vlars quickly covers Daniels and referee Mark Lindsey makes the three count.
New PWGP 24/7 Champion: The Puke God, Vlars (1st reign)
Vlars doesn’t have a chance to celebrate his victory. His former protege, Zaros, sneaks up behind him and school boys him for a quick three count.
New PWGP 24/7 Champion: Zaros (1st reign)
The goblin quickly takes off with the title before either of the other men can recover, leaving us to return to the ring.

MATCH 2
PWGP Television Title Match
Bryant Adam Thompson (champion, with Saul Asper)
vs
Goober the Gooker
(Referee: Eddie Tims)
Nick Christoulos joins Loco at the announce booth for this match, as Asper fulfills his managerial duties. They discuss the fact that Thompson disguised himself at Goober to win the vacant Television Title at “War Games” and the turkey man was granted this match. In fact Goober appears to think he’s actually the champion, coming to the ring with a toy version of the title that he clearly took from our merchandise table without paying for.
The match begins with back and forth chain wrestling and we’re reminded that despite his zany appearance, Goober is quite the gifted wrestler. At one point he nearly lock Thompson in the Crossface Turkey Wing and the champion is forced to grab the ropes to force the break and quickly exits to the floor to regain his composure.
Asper jumps up on the apron and starts arguing with Eddie Tims about how the Crossface Turkey Wing is a blatant choke hold. While the two argue, Máscara de Tigre Negro slides out from beneath the ring and climbs to the top rope. He hits Goober with a flying double knee attack and quickly scurries back out of the ring before Tims can turn around.
Thompson quickly slides back in the ring and hits Goober with a spinning roundhouse kick. He quickly follows up with the Bat Outta Hell and picks up the easy three count victory.
Winner: and still PWGP Television Champion, “The Notorious B.A.T.” Bryant Adam Thompson
After the match both Loco and Christoulos complain how Thompson was literally handed another victory without really having to earn it. They put Goober over as a good competitor but state there was no way he was even on the Champion’s level and Thompson didn’t need Máscara de Tigre Negro to help him out like that.
Back in the ring Thompson and Asper act as if nothing illegal has happened and celebrate yet another victory.
***
Zaros is spotted slinking through the back, his title in hand. He meets up with his partner Vod and the two of them celebrate together. Vod suddenly scoops the goblin up and slams him down on a stack of crates and Mark Lindsey is there to make the three count.
New PWGP 24/17 Champion: Vod (1st reign)
Zaros immediately protests what his partner just did. Their “queen”, Gertrude Quest arrives to defuse the situation. She tells them it doesn’t matter which of them is champion and they need to work together to make it through the rest of the show with the title. Both of Surf ‘n Turf agree and the three take off, looking for a safe place to hang low for the rest of the night.

In Gagnon’s office we find Bryant Adam Thompson complaining to her about what Loco and Christoulos said at the end of his match. He demands Gagnon fire them but Deedee replies that PWGP’s parent company, Buck U Productions, has filed an injunction preventing her from firing anyone else. She calls their group “The Invading Army”, crediting the name to Loco, and says once they win the match on September 30th and take full control of PWGP they’ll be looking for yet another play-by-play man and a new ring announcer. Until then, she feels perhaps the two men had a point. She announces that next week Thompson will defend the Television Title against Goober for a second time, but this time Thompson needs to prove he can do it on his own without anyone to assist him. Thompson scoffs at the notion and says he’ll beat Goober faster than he did tonight and prove to the world why he is the greatest Television Champion of all time.
***
Saul Asper is laughing as we return to ringside and starts joking to Loco that he better not get too comfortable with his position here because he won’t be here much longer. That, he says, will bring him almost as much pleasure as what’s about to happen next.
True North Ant makes his way down to the ring. He and Asper start arguing and Asper promises that he’ll be getting taken out on a stretcher “just like Eli”.
Riel comes out next with a live microphone in his hand. He brags about what the newly christened “Invading Army” has done and how his “internal demon” is the Global Champion. He tells everyone in the PWGP Exhibition Centre and everyone watching around the world that until Eli Buchanan, Daimon will be a fighting champion. Every time he appears in singles action he will be defending the PWGP Global Title. Why? Because no one can beat Daimon and everyone knows that. By putting the title on the line it gives his victims just a little glimmer of hope to make them fight harder, which will make crushing them that more sweet. Riel gets in the ring and asks True North Ant if he’s ready to go to hell, because hell is about to come to him.
The lights go off and once again when they come back up Riel is replaced my the monster Daimon
MATCH 3
PWGP Global Title Match
Daimon (champion)
vs
True North Ant
(Referee: Andrew Roller)
At the beginning of the match, Loco points that Philly Cheese Snake has come out on stage to watch the match. Asper replies that he’s probably here to watch his former friend get slaughtered and if he’s smart he’ll sit back, watch the show and not get involved.
Daimon begins to stock True North Ant right at the bell. He corners him but TNA is able to roll out of the way and slides out under the bottom rope. Andrew Roller begins to count but Daimon grabs his hand and shakes his head. More than a bit frightened, Roller stops counting and backs away from the monster as he steps over the top rope and hops to the arena floor. True North Ant grabs a chair and swings it at him but Daimon catches it. He rips the chair from his hands and tosses it behind him as TNA starts backing away. True North Ant rolls back into the ring. Daimon goes to follow, showing his agility by hoping up on the apron. No sooner does the monster do that though, then True North Ant charges forwards and spears him between the ropes, sending both men crashing to the floor.
The crowd cheers and Loco points out that this is the first time we’ve seen anyone take Daimon off his feet since he first appeared nearly three months ago. True North Ant is first to stir, getting to his hands and knees. He falls backwards though as Daimon sits straight up and quickly gets to his feet as if nothing has happened. The monster tries to gran TNA, but the ant ducks and drop kicks him to the knee. Daimon stumbles back a step but otherwise seems unaffected. TNA dives in an effort to take out the monster’s knee but instead receives a boot to the face. True North Ant gets to his feet on shaky legs and immediately is grabbed by the throat and chokeslammed on the ring apron by Daimon.
Asper points out how he has seems to have a limited moveset but everyone thing he does it devastating and he absolutely loves it.
Daimon tosses True North Ant back into the ring. He picks him up and slams him with ease. He does it a second time and TNA cries out in pain. Daimon picks him up by the throat and tosses him in the corner. He starts choking him while Andrew Roller pleads with him to stop. The monster lets go of the illegal move and tosses him to the mat before turning his attention to the turnbuckle cover, which he rips off and tosses to the floor. He picks TNA up and effortlessly nails a powerbomb on the exposed steel buckle. Andrew Roller looks like he’s ready to call for the bell but a look from Daimon stops him cold and he backs away.
The monster drags True North Ant back to his feet and grabs him by the throat for the second time. He hits a choke slam but refuses to go for the cover. Instead he lifts him up again and hits a third choke slam. This time he places a foot across TNA’s chest and Andrew Roller makes a quick three count to insure this match is over.
Winner: and still PWGP Global Champion, Daimon.
Following the match it would appear Daimon isn’t quite done yet. Much to Asper’s delight, he lifts True North Ant and sets him up for a choke breaker. After watching the whole match from the stage without so much as budging, Philly Cheese Snake suddenly dashes down to the ring and grabs TNA’s foot, dragging him from the ring. Before Daimon can react, he and Roller quickly exit with the injured wrestler through the crowd, leaving an angry Daimon staring after them as they disappear.

Gertrude Quest is congratulating her own brilliance, as she and Surf ‘n Turf hide in the boiler room. She tells her men they only have to last out a twenty minutes or so until tonight’s show is done and then they can escape with Vod still in possession on the 24/7 Title.
The three of them are so caught up in their plan that they don’t even notice the shadowy figures slipping up behind them. Vod suddenly gets hit on the back of the head with a 2x4 and Zaros takes a shot of it to the gut. James Daniels quickly covers Vod and referee Mark Lindsey makes the count.
New 24/7 Champion: James Daniels (2nd reign)
He quickly departs with the title while Quest berates her men for not being ready for this and exits the boiler room. Only to walk right into The Guru and BOB, with the latter grabbing him by the scruff of the shirt. Daniel immediately turned to Mark Lindsey and tells him that he gives up and the referee awards the title to the green faced goliath.
New 24/7 Champion: BOB (1st reign)
The Guru immediately has BOB release Daniels and thanks him for his cooperation. As the two walk off, the smarmy manager can be heard telling BOB he did the right thing coming back to his services and crowing about how easy this was.
Meanwhile Daniels looks at Lindsey and shrugs. He tells the referee it was good while it lasted and at least he can say he was the first 24/7 Champion, with Lindsey pointing out he was the first two time champion as well. This seems to brighten Daniels up and he rushes off to, saying he has another shirt to make.
***
We return to ringside where Loco speculates that no one will probably be looking to become 24/7 Champion as long as BOB has it. Asper adds he’s glad BOB and The Guru are allies with The Invading Army because none of them want him as an enemy, especially now he’s legally allowed to do whatever he likes as 24/7 Champion.
The East K Connection make their way down to the ring for their defense of the PWGP International Tag Team Titles. They have a huge task ahead of them tonight as they must defend the titles against three other teams and they only know who two of them are.
Once again Saul Asper leaves the announce booth, this time to meet up with The Agents of Pain on the entrance ramp. Asper can be heard saying that tonight is the night he finally manages the Tag Team Champions.
Out next is The Guru with the Moondogs. The Guru is still beaming from BOB’s win of the 24/7 Title. He whispers something to his team as they head down to the ring and you can only speculate they’re discussing strategy for the match.
Deedee Gagnon comes out on stage and immediately receives a negative reaction from the crowd. She tells The East k Connection that even though she can’t fire them, she can still make their lives miserable. That starts here tonight when she finally gets the International Tag Team Titles off them. She introduces the third team and the crowd immediately groan. Out steps Kraken and “Iron” Mack Brody and the other three teams realize this match has suddenly been taken to the next level.
Before “Krack and Mack” even make it to the ring, The Moondogs and The Agents of Pain jump on Easy E and Sweet Daddy D. Andrew Roller calls for the bell and the match begins.
MAIN EVENT
MATCH 4
PWGP International Tag Team Title Match
(Fatal Fourway Rules)
The East K Connection (champions, Easy E and Sweet Daddy D)
vs
The Agents of Pain (Agents B & D, with Saul Asper)
vs
The Moondogs (Buster and Runt, with The Guru)
vs
The Krack and Mack Connection (Kraken and “Iron” Mack Brody, with Saul Asper)
(Referee: Andrew Roller)
Nick Christoulos quickly joined Loco at the commentary table for the main event. The Agents and Moondogs continued to beat down on the champions as Kraken and Brody made their way into the ring. Andrew Roller tried his best to gain some sense of order in the match but the three heel teams didn’t pay him any attention. He finally asked the managers to help him out but they simply shrugged their shoulders and said told him his only job was to count the pin.
Kraken and Brody climbed into the ring and Brody could be heard yelling at the other teams to pick the champions up and hold them. The two big team began throwing fists at the helpless champions. All six men laughed as they continued to punish the champions, continuing to simple beat then down rather than end the match. Easy E and Sweet Daddy D appeared almost unable to remain on their feet but the other three teams didn’t seem ready to put them away and there was no clear indication who would be the appointed team to become the next International Tag Team Champions.
Finally Kraken and Brody bounced off the ropes and clubbed the held champions with stiff body blows. They went to the well one more time but somehow the champions broke free, causing Kraken and Brody to crash into the other teams. The crowd started cheering loudly as Easy E and Sweet Daddy D managed to dump the two men over the top rope. Easy E grabbed Buster and Sweet Daddy D grabbed Agent B and they rolled both of them up as Roller counted three on both men.
The noise of the crowd grew even louder and Christoulos stood up to announce the winners, when Deedee Gagnon marched back out on stage. She said the match would not end like this, that she had neglected to point out it was an elimination match. Yes that meant The Agents of Pain and The Moondogs were both eliminated but that meant The East K Connection still had to beat one last team to successfully retain the titles.
The crowd began booing, but their protests fell on deaf ears. Kraken and Brody attacked the champions from behind and the crowd began throwing garbage at them. The two big men ignore the tash pelting them and even used the champions as shields to block some of it. Easy E and Sweet Daddy D tried to fight back but the damage they had already received in the match was to much and it was only a matter of time before the end came. Sweet Daddy D was unceremoniously tossed from the ring by Kraken. Brody picked up Easy E and dropped him with the Iron Cross before Kraken finished him off with a big splash. Andrew Roller made the three count, handed the titles to the new champions and held their hands up in victory before leaving the ring in disgust.
Winners: and NEW PWGP International Tag Team Champions, The Krack and Mack Connection!
The new champions celebrated in the ring with their manager. Soon the other member so The Invading Army made their way down to the ring and they all congratulated Kraken and Brody of becoming the win, while The East K Connection laid motionless on the arena floor.
Loco brings up the fact that this group now controls all the major gold in the company and next week they could add even more. Can the Seattle Pro Wrestling World Champion HAMMERSTEIN withstand this group next week when he defends his championship against “Iron” Mack Brody, or will The Invading Army add yet another championship to their ever growing pile?
Until then. In the meantime and in between time… Good night, God bless and may the Force be with you.
