The shows opening video featuring the promotion's top stars ends and we open up to ringside where Bastian Krull, Mandeville Nelson and Chad Gomez are standing.
MANDEVILLE NELSON: Greetings from the Lion's Road! Welcome to Beach Blast! As you can see, we are right here on the beach enjoying the sun here in Honolulu! My name is Mandeville Nelson, I am joined as always by Bastian Krull and Chad Gomez. Tonight, there are a number of great matches on the card and two of them are title matches. That of course includes our main event tonight - an I QUIT MATCH between Matt Pulver and Ben Chrenshaw. The third and final match in their best of three series, it will determine who takes home the honour of being the first ever IRON CHAMPION. Bastian and Chad, I know you two both have thoughts on this match so let's hear 'em.
CHAD GOMEZ: I know I like to rile you guys up sometimes and play favourites, but I firmly believe that Ben Chrenshaw is walking out of here tonight as the first ever Iron Champion. I don't get Matt Pulver's choice for an I Quit match. The first match was a best of three falls, Chrenshaw won that 2 falls to 1 but Pulver's only fall was by pinfall with the alligator clutch. In the second match, Pulver won the Iron Man Challenge 1-0. Again though, Pulver used a crucifix hold to score the only fall in that match. So, you mean to tell me that a man who has been unable to make Ben Chrenshaw submit in two matches is somehow going to make a man who hasn't said ONE WORD since arriving here in Lion's Road say two of them? No, he won't. Pulver has submitted in both matches and he's walking in here with a huge target on that leg. Tonight, Ben Chrenshaw is going to finish ripping it off.
MANDEVILLE NELSON: Bastian?
BASTIAN KRULL: I can't pick a winner, I'm torn between these two - they are both world class athletes and this match can go either way. Chad raises a good point about Pulver having not been able to submit Chrenshaw... yet, but I think Matt Pulver knows it's time for the big guns, it's time to shine and he'll have no trouble doing so. For a young kid, he's matured a ton in his short time here in Lion's Road - he's been in the main event spotlight before and came up short. I think he's going to make sure that doesn't happen again.
MANDEVILLE NELSON: And of course, our big co main event is a Heritage title match between champion Corey Cruelty and challenger Jack Rose. Rose earned this title match just last week on Mane Event by scoring a direct fall over Cruelty in the big six person tag match.
BASTIAN KRULL: Jack Rose has all the momentum rolling into this challenge while Corey Cruelty got pinned in his very first match after winning the championship two weeks ago, so again it's hard to call this one. I think Cruelty will be looking to bounce back and shut down the challenge with authority, and I know Jack Rose wants to cap off a successful first tour with a championship reign.
CHAD GOMEZ: I also wonder how the fact that Cruelty got attacked by Robb Daniels and Ashton Bawolf for letting his team down is going to affect his psyche.
MANDEVILLE NELSON: These questions will be answered within a couple of hours because we're ready to go... at BEACH BLAST!

★ ★ ★ JOHNNY WEYLAND vs. EMPEROR IAN ★ ★ ★
If a normal person were writing this match, they’d most likely start it off with somebody screaming WELCOME TO BEACH BLAST at the top of their lungs and a good amount of hype over all the matches with fireworks left over from 4th of July illuminate the crowd and certain wrestling historians snark over the title being stolen from a little known WCW pay per view. If we had a shitty little mini-movie to do the hype for us, that would be even better. And who know, ye fedhead might add one for the lulz. Unfortunately for everybody involved, I’m not the bitch who does such things (and I’m kicking off some hellacious matchwriting rust).
So…as the commentators cluck on about everything, the Imperial Match blasts out of the speaker revealing Emperor Ian as a person that actually exists to a grand total of no damn reaction. Why should there be? He looks less like an Emperor and more of a dork in a wrestling singlet. Plus as is the case with all debuts in every efed wrestling company ever, newbs in a promotion tend to be given a look like “who’s this guy?” Ian, to his credit, doesn’t seem to care about any of this as he stretches in the ring.
The lights in the arena fade away and as "If I had a Tail" by Queens of the Stone Age hits, the lights come back up in crimson red. Josh Homme's voice calls out the lyrics as the anticipation grows in the crowd. "Gitchy gitchy, Oooh la la, Da doo run run, Ya won't get far." Now the mockery/butchery of Lady Marmalade aside, Johnny Weyland looks pretty damn intimidating even with the hood. Just his stride emerging from the Lion’s Mouth clearly shows that he’s all business. Even with his face looking like the human equivalent of those stone faces at Easter Island, the glare he give to Ian shows that he’s here to beat people up and give the fans a show.
And seeing as he tries to punch the Emperor’s head off the moment the bell rings, it looks like we’re gonna get one. Ian barely dodges it and a few more along the way but eventually gets outright pummeled into a whirlwind of brutality and pain that could only come from your opponent being a mixed martial arts monster. After about three minutes of being turned into paste however, Ian finally sees an opening and rabbit punches Johnny boy in the midsection before launching a pretty decent European uppercut to the jaw. Weyland’s features barely flash through the feelings of surprise and disdain before getting hit with a spinning heel kick as a result of his momentary delay. Ian tries to go for a bulldog but Weyland puts the stops to that and inevitably suplexes his opponent out of his boots, wrapping him up in a small package.
1…
2…
Well, hell no he’s not gonna get the win so easily. The Emperor kicks out and goes for an ARMBAR which Weyland magically counters into a kneebar. This being a series of countering submissions back and forth with Ian inevitably getting the upperhand with a step over toe hold ‘cause that’s his game, bro. With each enquiry over whether to quit or not to quit, Johnny clearly says no every damn time preferring to inch his way to the ropes instead. After much effort, he succeeds! Ian delays on braking the hold. But after being threatened by the referee with a yellow card and a little light reading of the rulebook to find out exactly what the hell that even means, he eventually releases it.
This kickstarts a damn good match from both men. Suplexes, spinebusters, and flying forearms everywhere from Weyland, who is proving himself worthy and demoralizing the Emperor with every move. STO’s, Tiger Suplexes, and double-arm DDT’s from Ian, who fights for a bigger paycheck and (especially now) the ability to stay alive. One can argue that Weyland has the more “noble” of the reasons whilst Ian has the most rational of them. But what does that matter so much? All the reasons for wanting a W in that win column are equally applicable in any kind of match whether it be the first on the card or the main event.
But only one can claim victory.
After several pin attempts and kick outs, both men stand on opposite sides of the ring. Ian seems the worst for wear, having been beaten down but he drags himself up with help from the ropes. Weyland is battered yet surprised that he hasn’t gotten rid of this idiot yet. He looks at Ian and smirks. Then both men charge against each other. Weyland triumphs in the joust with a flying leg lariat! Ian gets little chance to rise as he gets kicked stiffly to the small of the back. With every bit of strength Johnny Weyland has left, he scoops the Emperor, busts his brain to smithereens, and redefines the meaning of “Light’s Out”.

★ ★ ★ MARK STORM vs. REAGAN VOORHEES ★ ★ ★
The beginning guitar strums for "Down" by Curse Icon hits the PA system. The fans immediately quiet down as the lights in the venue shut off. The music continues to play growing even louder. The music get's closer to its crescendo as the light suddenly flicker on and off like a strobe light. Reagan can already be seen hanging loosely from the ring ropes like a strung up scarecrow. She is wearing her bloodstained Hockey Goalie mask as the light continue to flicker. The music begins to build back up again hitting it's top note once more as the light shut off once more. They quickly return as does Reagan as she is now kneeling in the center of the ring. The lights remain on as she slowly removes the hockey mask. Her music starts to die down as she crawls towards her corner placing the mask outside the ring, and hoping up to her feet to stretch for her match. The lights in the arena begin to dim as the nostalgic melody of "Bad Guy" by Jordon Comoli begins to play through the PA speakers. Smoke begins to rise from the stage and the audience begin to applaud, as emerging from the clouded mist is the self proclaimed spokesman of a generation - Mark Storm, who stands tall at the top of the entrance ramp. A smile is plastered on his face as he marvels at the scenery, embracing all the cheers as he close his eyes and widens his arms before coming down the ramp. Standing by the edge of the ring, he lets out a triumphant roar, with the audience roaring back to him as he jumps onto the apron before he slingshots his way over the top rope. Dressed in his usual wrestling attire; consisting black boots, with black knee pads, wrestling trunks with his name written on them and with stars coming down both sides, tape wrapped around his elbows, and mixed martial arts styled gloves. He falls to his knees in the middle of the ring, looking up at the heavens as his theme music slowly begins to fade out.
JAKE AARONS: This match is scheduled for one fall with a fifteen minute time limit! Introducing first from Amityville, New York! Weighing in at one hundred and twenty three pounds... REAGAN VOORHEES! Her opponent from Brooklyn, New York! He weighs in at two hundred and twenty pounds... MARK STORM!
The bell sounds, a lock-up occurs and Voorhees manages to pull Storm in close and nail him with a Muay Thai knee! Storm drops down to one knee, but pops back up and delivers several right handed strikes that back Voorhees up! He gets her backed into the ropes and sends her out, but she reverses it and delivers a throat thrust! With Storm staggered, she goes for a pele kick... but Storm grabs it and tries to transition it into a submission - Voorhees kick him off into the corner though. She gets up and charges in, Storm dives out of the way and begins the Impending Storm - a forearm, a slap, a kick to the thigh, a back fist and a clothesline! She staggers out and he scoops her up onto his shoulders looking for Dystopia! She wiggles free and nails a rolling elbow!
BASTIAN KRULL: The sound of these strikes! I know we're only here at ringside, but it sounds like they're echoing throughout the building!
MANDEVILLE NELSON: There's a reason the fans love her, Bastian!
CHAD GOMEZ: Because they're geeks! And she's a woman!
The Amityville Horror charges in, looking for a knee but Storms ducks out of the way and she hits the corner turnbuckle with her leg instead. Storms grabs her in a rear waist lock and German suplexes her... but hangs on, gets up and does it again... and again... and again... and again... and again... and again... the eighth one slows him down considerably. He gets up, barely able to stand and peels Voorhees off the mat... he scoops her up on his shoulders, then chucks her off... DYSTOPIA! The Go 2 Sleep hits in full force and she collapses back down to the mat, Storm covers!
1...
...
2...
...
3!
CHAD GOMEZ: It only took him four months, but Mark Storms picks up his first win in Lion's Road!
MANDEVILLE NELSON: It's bit hard to do when you were only here for one other show, no?
BASTIAN KRULL: Nonetheless, impressive win for Mark Storm! It'll be interesting to see where he goes from here.

The cameras cut to the backstage area where Jack Rose can be seen standing by with Becky Chande. A roar of cheers can be heard in the background from the arena, as he rolls his neck and stretches his limbs with a big smile on his face.BECKY CHANDE: Jack, last week you pinned Corey Cruelty for an opportunity to win the Heritage Title. How do you rate your chances out there tonight?JACK ROSE: Well, Corey’s had a good run in the Lion’s Road, picking up the belt along the way. But last week he took his eye off the ball, and I took full advantage. This week it's one on one and he knows what’s at stake if he’s not on his game. : I rate his chances very high!Suddenly, Kenshin Takamura enters the shot. Another pop can be heard down the hallway from the viewing fans. The two wrestlers shake hands, pleased to see one another.
JACK ROSE: Konichiwa.
KENSHIN TAKAMURA: Konichiwa, my friend. Any nerves?
JACK ROSE: For Corey? No. For outside interference? Let's just say I'm concerned. There's a storm brewing in the Lion's Road.Takamura nods; seemingly understanding what he means. KENSHIN TAKAMURA: Especially with the Pride Division forming. It seems as though everyone is on edge. Do not worry though, we are a team for a reason. I trust that you two have my back and both of you can trust that I have yours.JACK ROSE: Of course. Tonight we set the standard though. When the night’s through we’ll have two belts between the three of us and thanks to you, we’ll be one step closer to those Pride championships.KENSHIN TAKAMURA: I will be there to make sure you have a fair opportunity at the Heritage Championship. As for my match, I would not be surprised to see Daniels or Chrenshaw appear on Bawolf’s behalf since that is the one match that affects all six of us. No need to come out to the ring with me, just keep an eye on my match.The two shook hands once more. There was a clear respect between the two, and a growing rapport. JACK ROSE: You have my word. Just make sure I get a fair shot at that belt. I’m not taking any chances.Kenshin nodded in agreement as the cameras cut to commercial.

★ ★ ★ ANASTASIA LONDON vs. GIOVANNA MANCINI ★ ★ ★
Giovanna Mancini paces back and forth in the ring as the lights in the arena dim until things are barely visible; the monitors go black as well. After five seconds, ANASTASIA appears on on the right monitor, while LONDON appears on the left monitor; both are written in a White grunge font. “No Church in the Wild” begins to play over throughout the arena. Seconds later, Anastasia London walks out. Her eyes are locked on the ring as walks down the platform. She slips through the ropes and makes her way to the corner furthest away from the hard-camera. She folds her arms, places then on the top turnbuckle, and rests her head on them for a few moments. She then stretches out her legs and arms by using the ropes. After a few more seconds, she turns around and lets referee Xavier Price check her over.
JAKE AARONS: This match is set for one fall with a fifteen minute time limit. Introducing first from Englewood, New Jersey! Weighing in at one hundred and eighteen pounds... GIOVANNA MANCINI! Her opponent from Dallas, Texas! Weighing in at one hundred and thirty eight pounds! ANASTASIA LONDON!
The bell sounds and Anastasia London takes a moment to look out at the crowd, then turns to stretch a bit more when Giovanna Mancini attacks her with a forearm club from behind! The Jersey Princess struts around the ring, taunting London, calling her a fat cow as London pulls herself up off the mat. Mancini yanks her up... and eats an elbow! Mancini stumbles back... London gets up and backs her into the ropes, unleashing some rapid fire knife edge chops before Irish whipping her... then reeling her back... SHORT ARM LARIAT!
MANDEVILLE NELSON: Oh my!
BASTIAN KRULL: Some would argue all night and day that a twenty pound weight advantage doesn't make a difference, but there's your proof right there!
CHAD GOMEZ: Well, worst part is - London had full control of Mancini's momentum for that lariat! She pulled her in!
After a quick cover, Mancini kicks out and London pulls her to her feet. Mancini grabs an arm and tries to do a go behind, but London crosses her arms over and puts her back to Mancini and yanks her with pure force - GORICONCLASM! Mancini hits the mat and just by sheer momentum seems to be getting back to her feet... London smiles and rushes... JOHN WOO DROPKICK! Mancini goes into the corner quicker than you can say John Woo dropkick. London gets up, pulls her up and double underhooks her arms... BUTTERFLY SUPLEX! She rolls through with... KARMA'S LAST PLIGHT! London smiles and drops down for a cover!
1...
...
2...
...
3!
BASTIAN KRULL: Wow!
MANDEVILLE NELSON: Wow is right! Anastasia London just made short work of Giovanna Mancini in her debut match! She looks like she could be a force to be reckoned with!

A silhouette of a man, running up a hill; the sun rising in front of him, creating the outline the set-up camera sees of him. A lone held guitar note gains in volume as he approaches the crest of the hill.
Before he can reach it, cut to a wrestling ring, where White Phoenix is sparring; he hits his opponent with an European uppercut, taking off to the opposite ropes only to springboard back with the Psycho Crusher. The music has changed to a rolling, yet generic guitar riff. Cut again, this time to him flying over the top rope with a slingshot plancha to the same foe.
Cut once again, and now it's Phoenix, suspended by his legs to perform upside down situps/crunches. After a few seconds, the music fades down to the background, and we cut to a sitdown of Phoenix, adjusting his mask, and speaking off-camera to the left, an unseen interviewer asking an unheard question.
WHITE PHOENIX: Watashi wa... Tōkyō de kyōsō suru tame ni reiki sa reta Raionzu no michi, ... Ni kuru koto ni kōfun. Watashi wa ōkina shōgeki o tsukuru tame ni, soshite watashi no puroresu de Nihon no fan o miryō shite iku yoteidesu.
A couple of notes; one, his voice is clearly one that's learned Japanese as a second language; it's stilted, and has a distinct American accent to it. And second, the subtitles, added underneath;
"I am... excited to come to Lions Road, excited... to compete in Tokyo. I plan to make a great impact, and to thrill the Japanese fans with my professional wrestling."
Cut back to the ring, where the music is turned back up and we have a montage of Phoenix's other "big" moves; the Phoenix Wings, Blow Out, First Fire, and finally the Into Ashes, shown several times from different angles, the last being a slow motion shot of the opponent's impact from the move.
The last shot is of White Phoenix, mid-ring, in a fighting stance as the caption beneath reads, "WHITE PHOENIX - COMING NEXT WEEK" accompanied by the Lion's Road logo

★ ★ ★ HAMMERSTEIN & ANNA MATTHEWS vs. JADEN MILES & OAKLEY FRIDAY ★ ★ ★
“I Want It That Way” by Steel Panther kicks up to boos. When Jaden Miles comes through the tunnel, the boos get a lot worse. But, when Oakley Friday comes out of the entrance tunnel. Those boos suddenly turn into cheers which Jaden thinks are for him as he raises his arms which gains him boos that he’s completely oblivious to. Meanwhile, following behind him, Oakley is high-fiving the fans and interacting with them. Once they enter the ring, Oakley begins stretching as Jaden checks out her body while lounging against the ropes.
That’s when Fatboy Slim’s “The Rockafeller Skank” plays. We can see Hammerstein standing in the mouth of the lion, allowing Anna Mathews to go first. He then follows behind her with an awkward attempt at a suave walk. He quickly hurries back up to Anna to offer his arm to her, but she seemingly doesn’t notice as she’s focused on her opponents in the ring. Hammerstein doesn’t give up though as he hurries past her once more, but this time up the ring stairs and holds open the ropes for her. She looks at him for a moment then steps through and into the ring.
CHAD GOMEZ: What'd they call this on Twitter? Battle of the "Boos"? Really?
BASTIAN KRULL: Well, both teams are an item... so it's appropriate.
MANDEVILLE NELSON: We heard rumblings earlier this week that Jaden Miles wanted to handle the bulk of this match and it looks to me like he's trying to convince Oakley Friday to let him start things out.
Before the referee calls for the bell, Jaden Miles insists that Oakley let him take care of the hard work. Despite her objections, Friday gets outside onto the apron. Hammerstein takes the start for his team as Jaden and Hammerstein begin circling one another. Miles challenges Hammerstein to tie-up, but when Hammerstein goes for it, he only receives a kick to the gut for his troubles. Jaden irish whips Hammerstein to the ropes and catches him on the rebound with a knee to the gut which causes him to flip over to his back. He quickly drops a knee on Hammerstein’s forehead causing the bigger wrestler to hold his face in pain. With a slap to the head, Miles helps Hammerstein to his feet, but Hammerstein shoves Jaden backwards into the ropes causing him to bounce right back into a Tomahawk Chop from Hammerstein that floors him. He quickly gets to his feet and blows a kiss to his beloved Anna before running the ropes and dropping down on Jaden with a running senton! In surprisingly intelligent fashion, Hammerstein covers Miles!
1…
2…
NO!
Oakley drags him off by his foot. Anna runs into the ring to get Oakley out of the ring, but Friday catches her with a dropkick which sends her rolling out of the ring. Hammerstein is too pre-occupied with the fact that Oakley just dropkicked Anna to bother with Oakley herself or Jaden even. That’s when Jaden takes advantage by catching Hammerstein with a chop block to the back of the knee. He then locks in a reverse figure four! Hammerstein cries out in pain, but when it seems like he’s going to tap out, Hammerstein yells out, “NO, I have to be strong for Anna! I love you, Anna!” With this motivation, Hammerstein scratches and claws his way to the ropes for the rope break!
MANDEVILLE NELSON: Who says love doesn't make you stronger?
Anna gets back on the apron as Hammerstein goes to try to tag her, but Jaden is there to stop him as he stomps down on him, peals him off the mat, then irish whips him to Jaden’s own corner. Unfortunately for Jaden, Hammerstein reverses the whip and hits a Stinger Splash! Fortunately for Jaden though, Oakley gets the blind-tag! While Hammerstein is still focused on Miles, Oakley gets in and catches Hammerstein with a Crucifix Pin!
1…
2-NO!
Anna makes the save for her team almost immediately after the two-count then gets back to her corner so that Hammerstein has an opportunity to make a tag to Anna. Anna comes in like a ball of fire! She runs past Oakley who takes a swing at her, but she ducks underneath. When Oakley turns to see Anna, she finds herself on the receiving end of a handspring back elbow off the ropes! Oakley, still being relatively fresh though, gets right back to her feet. Oakley, though, is a little dazed by the elbow assault making her a perfect target for Anna’s Kip Up Hurricanrana, downing Oakley again. Immediately, Anna gets back up to her feet and runs the ropes before catching Oakley with a running Senton Flip! Again, Oakley gets back to her feet, but slower this time as Anna looks for the Boomerfly Kick! NO! Friday ducks underneath which causes Anna to stumble toward Oakley’s corner just enough for Jaden to slap the taste of Anna’s mouth causing her to stumble back toward Oakley and triggering Hammerstein as he runs around the ring to attack Jaden Miles! Meanwhile, in the ring, Friday lifts Anna up into a Fireman’s Carry and hits a beautiful Gut Buster out of it, hitting TGI Oakley! She immediately goes for the pin!
MANDEVILLE NELSON: This could be it!
1…
2…
Hammerstein realizes the pin is going on and tries to slide into the ring, but Jaden is there to keep him from getting in there to stop it!
3!
BASTIAN KRULL: Oakley Friday picks up the win for her team!
Oakley gets up and begins to celebrate her win, but Miles attracts her attention by holding his arm in pain. Concerned, she ceases celebrating and jumps out of the ring to attend to him. He pulls her in close and winks to the camera.

MANDEVILLE NELSON: Fans, it's shaping up to be one of the most historic nights in Lion's Road his--
Megadeth's "Killing is My Business" hits and the lion's mouth roars open... two men, dressed in black suits and sunglasses make their way out and turn back toward the entrance tunnel, seemingly arguing with someone unseen. Moments later, a familiar figure emerges from the smoke, yelling at the two men in suits and pointing them down to the ring. The fans begin booing as they realize just who is leading these men to the ring...
CHAD GOMEZ: Well, Mandy, he's here - what have you got to say now?
MANDEVILLE NELSON: Colour me surprised, Chad, I thought for sure he'd stay hiding in retirement.
BASTIAN KRULL: For anyone not familiar, that's Eli Buchanan! He was formerly known as El Tigre de Jengibre/Tiger Mask Red in Pollomania and competed briefly here in Lion's Road as Flynn Buck. He was forced into retirement due to injury. Mandeville doesn't like him because he attack--
Buchanan's men in black get to the ring and are about to enter when he scolds them again, yelling at them to "go over there" and points to the commentary desk.
CHAD GOMEZ: See ya later...
Gomez takes off, leaving Krull and Nelson sitting there as the suits come down and stand on either side of the broadcast team. Buchanan has a disgusting smile on his face as he swaggers down the ramp steps, walking up behind Nelson and yanks a microphone off the table.
ELI BUCHANAN: Here I am, Mandarin! What have you got to say to me now?
Nelson and Krull both stand up, Nelson gets right in Buchanan's face while Krull backs off a bit.
MANDEVILLE NELSON: Does the nuthouse know you are missing? Would you like me to call them for you?
Buchanan smiles.
ELI BUCHANAN: I told you on Twitter that you needed to watch your mouth, Manny.
MANDEVILLE NELSON: Really? Must've got mixed in with all the gratuitous selfies.
ELI BUCHANAN: That's too bad then because you could've had a warning, you could've called in sick today when you heard that I was coming with these two - Agent D and Agent B.
Buchanan motions to each man, who both remain expressionless.
MANDEVILLE NELSON: So you ditched the big mute for two that don't equal half his size or intelligence?
D & B step forward, but Buchanan chuckles and holds his arms out to keep them back.
ELI BUCHANAN: You're just dying to find out how your good buddy, Super Pollo felt when I lit his face on fire, aren't you?
MANDEVILLE NELSON: Is that it, Tiger? Did you get bored at home training Hammerstein, watching him fumble your tricks and lighting himself on fire?
ELI BUCHANAN: Would you believe me if I told you that I missed hearing those screams of terror?
MANDEVILLE NELSON: Oh, I wouldn't put anything past you.
ELI BUCHANAN: Good, because if you run your mouth again... you'll be the next one to feel the heat.
Nelson laughs, removes his headset and gets right in Buchanan's face. His words are picked up over Buchanan's microphone.
MANDEVILLE NELSON: Don't come out here and threaten me, I'm not your dime a dozen wrestling announcers... I'll slap the fuck out of you.
Buchanan has a hearty laugh and Nelson shoves him, Buchanan shoves him back which causes Nelson to do just what he said he would - he slaps Buchanan upside the head, knocking him to the ground. Agents D & B grab him, restraining him as he struggles to break free. Buchanan gets to his feet, trying to ignite his flash paper... but Nelson kicks it out of his hands! Buchanan watches it fall to the ground and burn up, then returns the slap! As Mandeville is doubled over in pain, Buchanan orders an action. Bastian Krull tries to step in, but Buchanan presses him against the ramp as both men pick up Nelson, hoisting him into the air and drop him through the broadcast table! The laptops and tablets scatter as stage hands and medics rush to the scene as security whisks away Agents D & B, Buchanan shoves Krull to the ground and exits with his clients. Our feed abruptly cuts.

★ ★ ★ NUMBER ONE CONTENDER BOUT FOR THE IRON CHAMPIONSHIP ★ ★ ★
JULIAN CUTLASS vs. EL HIJO DE POLLO
BASTIAN KRULL: Well, we're going to be down a man for the rest of the night. If you missed it, Eli Buchanan, or Tiger Mask Red, whatever... just came out here and had his goons put our broadcast partner Mandeville Nelson through our table! Mandy was alert and responsive while was being taken out of here, so that's a good sign but I'll keep you guys updated in the mean time if I receive anything about him between now and the end of the night. I understand Chad's on his way back out any moment now, but we've got a match to get to...
The stone-grooved rhythm of “Columbia” by Oasis gets the heads off the crowd bobbing as the speakers buzz to the pulse of the bass. Julian Cutlass emerges from the backstage clad in a blue, hooded robe and the crowd warps into a frenzy as he steadily makes his way down the runway with a relaxed, assured confidence. He removes his robe and is about to hand it off to a handler when he's attacked from behind by El Hijo de Pollo! Gomez arrives back at the broadcast booth as Pollo's continuous attack leads Cutlass down the ramp stairs, Pollo grabs him and Irish whips him into the guardrail and then kicks him in the gut! Cutlass falls onto the ground, and Pollo rummages about before picking up an extension cable and starts choking Cutlass with it! Pollo drops it after several stage hands intervene, but he doesn't bother following up on the Blazin' Kick - opting instead to pull the outside mat up and expose a section of ground and sand! Cutlass gets to his feet before Pollo makes it over to him, and greets him with a Mongolian chop! Pollo staggers, but doesn't falter so Cutlass gives him a second! Pollo drops to a knee, and Cutlass clamps on a side headlock and turns... hip throwing Pollo over onto the exposed ground!
BASTIAN KRULL: Keep in mind, this match is not scheduled to be no disqualification or no count out... I don't even think the bell has rung!
CHAD GOMEZ: Nope, I didn't hear one!
Cutlass throws Hijo into the ring and rolls in after him, he grabs him as he's getting to his feet and whips him off the ropes. Upon the return, he turns the chicken man inside out with a running lariat! He goes to the corner and waits for Pollo to get up again... a second running lariat! Pollo stumbles back into the ropes, and Cutlass launches him across the ring with an exploder suplex! He gets to his feet... charges... BLAZIN' KICK! The running Yakuza kick nails Pollo in the face and he falls down to the mat. Cutlass backs off as referee Cordell Garner begins his ten count...
1... 2... 3...
4... 5... 6...
Pollo pulls himself up with the second rope... he turns around on his knees and Cutlass nails him with a second Blazin' kick and walks off.
1... 2... 3...
4... 5... 6...
Pollo begins to stir again.
7... 8... 9...
He gets up on all fours, but collapses back down to the mat.
10!
CHAD GOMEZ: I guess you'd call that a walk off KO!
BASTIAN KRULL: Julian Cutlass knocks El Hijo de Pollo out with the Blazin' Kick making an emphatic statement as he collects the number one contendership to the Iron Championship!
Cutlass gets his arm raised in victory and makes his exit, walking down the runway before stopping as an unknown man walks out. The man walks out and hugs Cutlass, turning him back around to face the crowd and raising his arm in victory.
BASTIAN KRULL: Well there he is, fans - after rumours were abound all week... this all but confirms that Alexander Irvine has signed on with Lion's Road.
CHAD GOMEZ: And this sheds some light on who Julian Cutlass will be teaming with in the Pride division tournament next week...

The scene opens to King of Lions Heavyweight Champion--Robb Daniels. He's sitting in the back using the title as a mirror to fix his hair. A smile crosses his face and he sets the title neatly on his lap. Ashton Bawolf is sitting beside him lacing up his boots as he notices the arrival of Ben Chrenshaw. He points and Daniels turns his attention to the doorway.
ROBB DANIELS: Benjamin Chrenshaw... you're just the man I have been waiting for...
Chrenshaw nods in recognition of the champion. He has his bags in hand as he has just arrived. The camera begins to pull away as Daniels begins talking to Chrenshaw. A slow smile crossing his face as well.
BASTIAN KRULL: I wonder what those three are talking about?
CHAD GOMEZ: Knowing full well what each man is capable of, there's no telling.
BASTIAN KRULL: Well, I guess we're about to find out - the cameras are there because Becky Chande is standing by for an interview...
BECKY CHANDE: I am joined by King of Lion's Champion--Robb Daniels, Ashton Bawolf and one half of tonight's main event match Ben Chrenshaw.
ROBB DANIELS: Becky, first and foremost we would like to thank you for your service here in Lion's Road and we appreciate you taking the time out of your hectic evening here at Beach Blast to speak with us.
Chande smiles and looks confused at Daniels while Chrenshaw has a serious look on his face and Bawolf has a half grin on his face rubbing his hands together.
ROBB DANIELS: Last week Bawolf and I were forced to team with Corey Cruelty in a Trios Match against La Cucaracha, Jack Rose and Kenshin Takamura. Like we said... Corey cost us both the victory after that school boy roll up but that's okay...because tonight we get some revenge. Bawolf is going to take care of business against Takamura and I'm going to put La Cucaracha right in her place!
Bawolf agrees while Chrenshaw is wrapping his wrists with tape.
BECKY CHANDE: You two aren't the only one's in action...in the Main Event Ben...
ROBB DANIELS: The night belongs to the "Silent Assassin" Ben Chrenshaw as he makes Matt Pulver say "I Quit" and defeats him just like I did and he'll acquire the Iron Championship just before the three of us begin our journey of becoming the Pride Champions when we go to Japan NEXT WEEK!
BECKY CHANDE: Ben, if you don't mind me asking... what are your thoughts for your match tonight?
She extends her hand holding the microphone towards Chrenshaw as he looks at it and becomes angry. Daniels steps in abruptly.
ROBB DANIELS: You don't have to answer any questions right now Ben! This is your night... let's get ready.
The three men walk out of the picture as the camera shot goes back to Chande.
BECKY CHANDE: Back to you, guys!

★ ★ ★ GRUDGE MATCH ★ ★ ★
KENSHIN TAKAMURA vs. ASHTON BAWOLF
The arena blacks out as the calm voice of a woman can be heard speaking throughout the arena.
If you know the enemy and know yourself,
You need not fear the result of a hundred battles.
If you know yourself but not the enemy,
For every victory gained you will also suffer a defeat.
If you know neither the enemy nor yourself,
You will succumb in every battle.
The heavy beats of Sabaton's "The Art of War" echo throughout the arena as the brash Ashton Bawolf steps onto the stage to a less than favorable reaction. Ash grins out at the booing crowd and reaches up, pulling his hood back as he glances out and soaks up their disdain for him. As the beat picks up, Ash slowly begins to make his way down the ramp and to the ring, scoffing at fans and slapping away hands of those reaching towards him. "The Shogun" rolls into the ring and quickly gets to his feet, leaping onto the second turnbuckle and throwing his arms out as the crowd continues to berate him. Ash drops down and slides off his coat as he stretches before the match. "Phenomenon" by Dir en Grey kicks up over the speaker system as the fans get to their feet as they get loud for the man entering. The Lion's Head entrance tunnel roars, allowing the Japanese sensation, Kenshin Takamure, to emerge. The crowd erupts as he poses in front of the Lion's Head. This is when the smoke begins pouring from the Lion's nostrils before The Tokyo Tiger sprints toward the ring, leaps over the top rope, and rolls into the center of the ring. In one fluid motion, he returns to his feet then leaps up upon the far turnbuckle and panders to the crowd before dropping down and stretching prior to the beginning of the match.
JAKE AARONS: This match is scheduled for one fall with a fifteen minute time limit. Introducing first from Boulder, Colorado. He weighs in at two hundred and thirty four pounds... THE SHOGUN ASHTON BAWOLF! His opponent from Tokyo, Japan. He weighs in at two hundred and twenty eight pounds... THE TOKYO TIGER KENSHIN TAKAMURA!
The bell sounds at Xavier Price's request and the two men engage in a collar and elbow tie-up, Bawolf pulls a side head lock and snaps Takamura over and onto the mat. Thinking quickly, Takamura applies some headscissors to alleviate the pressure and Bawolf releases. Both men get back to their feet and Takamura slams a kick into Bawolf's midsection, and Bawolf staggers away into the corner and doubles over. Price gets between the men so Takamura won't advance on him, but Bawolf signals he's good and Takamura walks over into a kick to the gut! It's Takamura's time to double over as he stumbles away in pain, Bawolf shoves Price out of the way and begins dragging Takamura's face along the top rope before slinging him into the corner and begins unleashing forearm strikes to the midsection. Satisfied, Ashton Bawolf tries to Irish whip Kenshin Takamura out but he won't go, so Bawolf drives his knee into the Tokyo Tiger's gut and then sends him across into the opposite corner. Bawolf charges in and eats a boot to the face! The fans pop as Bawolf wobbles away holding his face in pain, he shakes himself out and tries to attack again but Kenshin Takamura lunges out and takes him down with a spinning heel kick! He hops on top for the cover, hooking the leg...
1...
KICK OUT!
CHAD GOMEZ: Way too early!
BASTIAN KRULL: You can never be too sure, Chad. It's quick impact moves and pinning holds that often lead to a surprising pinfall. The combination of Bawolf's speed and Takamura's rush out of the corner made that spinning heel kick a very dangerous one. I'm impressed that Ashton Bawolf kicked out at one on that.
Kenshin Takamura grabs Bawolf in a single arm chickenwing and sits on his back, the Tokyo Tiger uses his free hand to push down on Bawolf's shoulder and increase the pressure of the chickenwing in the process. Bawolf refuses to submit when Price asks, then gets to the ropes quite easily. Bawolf sneakily holds Takamura's arm as he tries to release and finally lets go at four causing Xavier Price to admonish and warn Kenshin Takamura about the five count. Takamura tries to argue that Ashton Bawolf was holding onto him, but the Shogun elbows him in the gut and throws him between the ropes and out to the apron. Bawolf takes a quick walk around the ring, shaking his arm out as Takamura pulls himself up on the apron and attempts to grab Bawolf inside the ring but Shogun knees him in the gut to break free and then grabs his head and rushes him into the corner post! Takamura slumps over and Bawolf exits onto the apron himself, hooking him up for a backdrop suplex... Bawolf hoists him up... and drops him on the apron! Takamura grabs his back in pain and rolls off the apron, crashing to the floor. He isn't afforded the opportunity to recover though because Shogun pulls him up again, looking for the backdrop suplex... this time aiming to drop him on the edge of the apron! Takamura holds his ground and pounds away to release Bawolf's rear waist lock, but Bawolf pushes him forward toward the guardrail. The Tokyo Tiger stops himself short of hitting it and turns to a charge Ashton Bawolf... KICK TO THE HEAD! Bawolf is staggered, and Takamura grabs him in a front waist lock and belly to belly suplexes him on the ground!
BASTIAN KRULL: Good grief! We're outside, fans, there's a mat there but that's sand and solid ground underneath - not a floor. A floor isn't forgiving, but solid ground even less so.
CHAD GOMEZ: It was labelled as a grudge match for a reason, Bas, and we're seeing it here. Ashton Bawolf seems to be targeting the back, despite the fact that the shoulder is the obvious target. Of course, softening up the back makes his Blood Eagle move even more lethal! Kenshin Takamura was smart to get out of that suplex because two of them on the apron, I think his night would've been over just as quickly as it started.
BASTIAN KRULL: I've gotta give credit to referee Xavier Price also, he's halted his twenty count for both men on the floor while they are both down on the ground.
Takamura is up first and throws Bawolf back inside the ring, then begins climbing the turnbuckle. He gets to the top, steadies himself as Ashton Bawolf gets his wits about him and turns around... SLING BLADE! He covers!
1...
...
2-KICK OUT!
Takamura rolls Bawolf onto his back and applies the single chickenwing again, but changes position and transitions it into a hammerlock. Bawolf gets to his feet and lunges to the ropes to force a break of the hold. Takamura makes a point to turn to Price this time as he's releasing the hold, but Bawolf notices and waffles him with an elbow to the face! The elbow catches the nose of Takamura as he doubles over in pain which allows Shogun to grab him and sling him shoulder first into the corner post with ease! Bawolf exits the ring and grabs the arm, pulling it around the ring post causing Takamura to scream out in pain. Price exits the ring and forcibly gets Bawolf to release the hold, Takamura remains in the same position as Bawolf comes back into the ring. He grabs the Tokyo Tiger in a waist lock and pulls him out... he throws Takamura to the mat, chuckling as Takamura holds his shoulder in pain. Bawolf stomps on it, then stomps it a second time for good measure. Takamura rolls onto his back, but Bawolf tries to turn him back over with little luck. So instead, he slams both his hands into Kenshin's ribs causing his arms to reflex and he uses that opportunity to double chickenwing the arms and then sits down on Takamura's back, using the arms to create more pressure on the back also.
BASTIAN KRULL: There you go, Chad, dual action target! Ashton Bawolf pulling both arms, even though he only needs one - two offers better control. He yanks back, creating a world of pain for Kenshin Takamura, his shoulder, his back, it all hurts. That hold hurts just looking at it.
Bawolf releases the hold, pulling Takamura up to his feet and twisting his arm into an arm wringer. The Shogun straightens it out and drives his elbow into the shoulder causing Takamura to fall to his knees in pain, trying to shove Bawolf away. Ashton Bawolf pulls him to his feet again, looking to twist it again, but Takamura grabs him and O Goshi's him to the mat! Bawolf is done and Takamura recovers on the ropes. The Tokyo Tiger finally gets up and walks over to Bawolf as he rolls out of the ring, Takamura sticks his bad shoulder and arm through the ropes and Ashton Bawolf makes him pay by grabbing it and dropping to the floor! Takamura is slung out of the ring by the momentum and hits the ground hard. Bawolf grabs Takamura up and applies a hammerlock, then stands at his side - keeping him doubled over as he drives knees into the arm and shoulder. He releases the hold and throws Takamura back inside, before taunting and climbing inside himself. Takamura scrambles to his feet and catches Bawolf as he's coming back with a kick to the chest! Bawolf doubles down and tries to use the corner to get away, but Takamura tracks him down and continues unleashing kicks on him! Xavier Price wedges himself between the two men and backs Takamura off of Bawolf, but not without a struggle. Bawolf comes out of the corner, grabs Takamura's arm and jumps over the top rope and to the floor, bringing the arm down across the top causing the Tokyo Tiger to snap back into the ring in a world of pain while Ashton Bawolf soaks in the jeers of the crowd on the outside of the ring.
BASTIAN KRULL: For as much work as Ashton Bawolf is doing to that shoulder, he does eliminate a chunk of Kenshin Takamura's offence but I'd personally be worried about his Tiger Strike, that Buzzsaw kick can come from anywhere and knock a fighter clean out if he hits it the money.
CHAD GOMEZ: I think the Tiger Strike might be the last thing on Takamura's mind. It looks to be like he's looking up at the sky rethinking this whole wrestling thing - "maybe that 9-5 office job isn't so bad. I'll get beat up by stress, but at least I won't get beat up by Ashton Bawolf."
BASTIAN KRULL: Will you stop!
Bawolf takes his time getting back into the ring and slides into the ring, he gets up to his knees and Takamura pulls him in for a powerbomb! Knowing his shoulder is well fucked at this point, Takamura wastes no time lifting him up, but the hasty nature results in Bawolf being easily able to slip out. Bawolf spins Takamura around and kicks him in the gut, snapping off a suplex! Bawolf taunts the crowd a bit and tries going for the cloverleaf, but Kenshin Takamura grabs an arm instead... TRIANGLE CHOKE! Bawolf responds frantically, letting Takamura tighten it... the Shogun looks for the ropes - too far. He begins folding Takamura up into a stacked position, then hammerfists the injured shoulder as he's beginning to fade... Takamura keeps the hold applied despite yelling in pain. Bawolf uses his last bit of strength to hoist Takamura into the air... Takamura lets go, Bawolf drops him... TIGER STRIKE! Bawolf looks forward, standing perfectly straight... and then hits the mat with a thud, Takamura covers!
1...
...
2...
...
3!
Takamura tries his best to ignore the pain, raising his arms in victory as Bawolf is attended to.
BASTIAN KRULL: He might've knocked Bawolf into next week! Unfortunately, he'll be disappointed to find out that Kenshin Takamura's win means the Streak get a bye into the semi finals of the Pride division tournament.
CHAD GOMEZ: Yeah, the Streak is going to need it after Ben Chrenshaw rips Matt Pulver's leg off tonight!

Takamura's theme can be heard playing in the background as our scene cuts to Becky Chande standing backstage in front of a BEACH BLAST banner.
BECKY CHANDE: It's my pleasure to introduce to the world Lion's Road latest latest acquisition... Aria Price!
Price walks into the frame and she is wearing eye glasses, black dress slacks and a black sleeveless top with a plunging neckline. She is also carrying a championship title belt in her right hand down by her side.
BECKY CHANDE: For those of you unfamiliar with Aria Price she comes to us from the Pacific Northwest out of Seattle, Washington. You may know her fiancée and tag team partner of Blake Mitchell who competed in the Quest for the Crown tournament back in June that determined the King of the Lions Champion that was eventually won by Robb Daniels. Price is the current Seattle-Pro Women's Champion and she will continue to defend her title in Seattle-Pro but will make her in ring debut for Lion's Road next week when we travel to Japan!
Price smiles clutching her Women's Championship by her side.
BECKY CHANDE: Aria now that you've arrived in Lion's Road what are your goals?
Price leans slightly towards the microphone until Chande places it comfortably for Price to speak into.
ARIA PRICE: I just want to thank you Becky for this opportunity to speak to the fans of Lion's Road for the first time. You're right I am the current Seattle-Pro Women's Champion and I plan to defend this title and pursue another here in Lion's Road.
BECKY CHANDE: Which title are you interested in challenging for?
ARIA PRICE: Each of the singles titles have there own appeal to them from the challengers to the champions, the rules and stipulations but I don't see why I couldn't be the Queen of the Lions Champion by years end.
BECKY CHANDE: Are you throwing your name out there for a future title shot at the King of the Lions Champion... Robb Daniels?
ARIA PRICE: I still have a lot to prove Becky but what I'm saying is I'm just as good as anyone else and given the opportunity I will not disappoint. See you in Japan!
Price walks out of the frame.
BECKY CHANDE: Aria Price debuts next week!

★ ★ ★ ROBB DANIELS vs. LA CUCARACHA ★ ★ ★AS I WALK THROUGH THE VALLEY OF THE SHADOW OF DEATH "Gangster's Paradise" by Coolio begins to play throughout the arena. The lights abruptly turn off all at once as the music continues to play. Seemingly hundreds of camera flashes begin lighting up the darkened arena then suddenly the curtain is thrown back and Robb Daniels and his wife Lauren emerge from the lion's mouth... Robb wears a very serious look upon his face, walking down the centre of the runway with his wife in tow. He points to the King of the Lions Championship before stopping on the apron, holding the ropes open for his wife then wiping his boots before stepping through himself. He circles the ring, removing his robe and sunglasses and handing them off to a stage hand. He removes the title belt from around his waist, kisses it and hoists it into the air before climbing up the turnbuckles. He looks around at the crowd, enjoying the negative reaction as he talks trash right back to them. He tells the camera that he's the champ before dropping down, handing the belt off and fixing his wrist tape as the music ends. "Cuka Rocka" announces the arrival of La Cucaracha, inspiring sounds of approval, slight indifference, and mild disdain from the Lions Road faithful. The lion's mouth opens, as it's nostrils spew forth purple smoke. La Cucaracha stumbles out, wearing one of her own official t-shirts over her ring gear, along with an off-center antenna headband stuck in her messy brown hair. She reveals a wet paper sack to the audience, and reaches in to reveal one of her official La Cucaracha foam hissing cockroaches. She flings one roach into the audience, then another, and then another before finally dropping the sack to the stage. From there, Canada's fourth insect-themed luchadora begins her walk to the ring... JAKE AARONS: This match is scheduled for one fall with a fifteen minute time limit! Introducing first from Toronto, Ontario! She weighs in at one hundred and twenty nine pounds... LA CUCARACHA! Her opponent from Knoxville, Tennessee! He weighs in at two hundred and thirty five pounds... ROBB DANIELS! La Cucaracha races down the ramp and soars over the top rope with a flying forearm to Daniels' dome! The King of the Lions Champion falls back into the ropes, Cucaracha grabs him by the wrist and tries to Irish whip him but the size difference won't allow it. Daniels reverses it and sends her into the ropes, she ducks his clothesline attempt causing Daniels to almost strike referee Brian Shelzi. Shelzi stops him, and Lauren Parker-Daniels takes this momentary distraction as an opportunity to pull the top rope down as Cucaracha hits them - causing her to tumble out to the floor. Cucaracha wobbles to her feet, chasing after Lauren and corners her between her and the ramp. Before Cucaracha can enact certain revenge on the Queen of the Lions, her King decks Cucaracha from behind with a forearm! He then grabs her and whips her into the ramp as Lauren rushes to safety! Cucaracha hits hard back first, but Robb doesn't give her an inch - he grabs her in a front waist lock and then uses his shoulder to drive her into the ramp again! Daniels lifts her onto the ramp, then climbs up himself... he stuffs her through the ropes back into the ring and takes a moment to taunt.
BASTIAN KRULL: He's done a good job of stifling La Cucaracha so far, so why do this? Why give her an opportunity to get back into this?Daniels gets inn and picks up Cucaracha rushing her over to the corner and bouncing her head off the top turnbuckle! He takes her to the opposite side and does the same! He goes for a third, but Cucaracha puts her foot on the second turnbuckle to stop her head from going in. Daniels elbows her in the gut, causing her leg to come down and smashes her head off the top turnbuckle anyway! She staggers away and Daniels taunts again as his wife Lauren applauds him on the outside. Daniels grabs Cucaracha and whips her into the ropes, she ducks a clothesline attempt again, then hits the ropes and baseball slides between Daniels' legs! He whisks around and Cucaracha leaps off the ropes... RACHA RANA! She rolls him through for a pin! 1... ... 2-KICK OUT! CHAD GOMEZ: Right there, that's what she's gotta do to walk out of here a winner. She's got to cheat or wrestle defensively. Going blow for blow with Robb Daniels is a recipe for disaster at her size. Hell, even take size out of the equation - he withstood challenges from Matt Pulver and Julian Cutlass so Daniels can take a lot of punishment and still walk out with the win. Cucaracha is going to have to outwit him or get a flash pin.Daniels gets to his feet first and Cucaracha tries to follow up, but eats a knee lift. She doubles over and Daniels nails a second, then a third. He lines her up and unleashes a European uppercut that sends her back into the corner. The King of the Lions Champion smiles as he begins firing off some blistering knife edge chops! Each one creates a WOO from the crowd as Cucaracha yelps in pain. Daniels grabs her wrist and sends her out, but she reverses... but Daniels reverses it back in his favour and whips Cucaracha into the opposite corner and runs, driving his shoulder into her midsection! She leaves her feet as she is nearly folded up like an accordion between the second and third ropes. Daniels pulls her out of the corner and goes for an abdominal stretch near the ropes. He initially has both of Cucaracha's arms restrained, but allows one to go free when he reaches back and grabs the second rope for some illegal leverage. The fans are yelling at Brian Shelzi to check the ropes and get Daniels' hand off of them, and in usual Shelzi fashion - he takes his sweet time doing so. As he gets up and walks over to the ropes to check, Cucaracha grabs a hand full of Daniels' hair and yanks! Shelzi finds no evidence that Daniels has grabbed the ropes and returns to asking Cucaracha if she'd like to submit, but she keeps saying no!
BASTIAN KRULL: What an interesting scenario, hahaha. Daniels is clearly cheating by grabbing the ropes for leverage on this hold, but now as we watch referee Brian Shelzi - notorious for being a little oblivious - go back toward the ropes to check and see if he's grabbing the ropes, La Cucaracha takes the moment to cheat herself. I am not a fan of cheating as you'll all know by now and two wrongs don't make it right, but like I said - it's an interesting scenario.
CHAD GOMEZ: Shelzi is now asking Daniels if he grabbed the ropes - have you EVER seen a wrestler admit to a referee that he grabbed the ropes, Bas?BASTIAN KRULL: Absolutely not.Daniels tries it again, but Shelzi shoots toward the ropes when he sees a change in leverage in the hold and catches Daniels in the act! He counts 1... 2... 3-Daniels slowly releases the pressure on the hold, arguing with the referee but this leaves him open to a hip toss! Cucaracha judo throws him over her and to the mat! She quickly climbs onto the second rope and leaps off with an elbow drop in mind... but nobody home! Daniels gets up and stomps on her, raising her to her feet. Daniels fires a few forearms at her and shoves her into the ropes, he doubles over in anticipation that she'll come back and he'll back drop her but Cucaracha soars over and hooks him into a sunset flip! 1... ... 2-KICK OUT! Daniels scrambles to his feet, while Cucaracha is a little slower doing so... Daniels goes to grab her but she leaps up and brings his head down onto hers... JAWBREAKER! Daniels stumbles in pain as the crowd comes alive, Cucaracha goes a go behind... THE BUG ZAPPER! Her lungblower connects full force, but Robb Daniels crashes to the mat and rolls out to the apron - and his wife Lauren pulls him down to the outside of the ring. Cucaracha wastes no time, going right out after him and chasing Lauren off. She grabs Daniels and smashes him off the ring apron, then the guardrail, then the ring post... then the commentator's table! She rolls Daniels inside and slides in behind him, but Lauren Parker-Daniels grabs her foot and drops down out of sight. Cucaracha tries to kick her off, but can't see her to do it properly! She instead opts to slither back out of the ring, grab Lauren by the hair and chuck her inside the ring. The King of the Lions Champion gets confused as to why his wife his in the ring, but doesn't even have time to ask because La Cucaracha springboards off the top rope and takes out husband and wife with a somersault plancha INTO the ring. Cucaracha gets up, dropkicks Lauren through the ropes and to the floor and turns around and feeds one to Daniels - he drops back into the corner and Cucaracha calls for the cannonball.
CHAD GOMEZ: Everyone's favourite pool dive!Cucaracha goes into the opposite corner and signals, then charges... Daniels gets up and CATCHES her as she flips forward! She flails wildly as Daniels looks poised to powerbomb her, but instead he tosses her forward... and like a cat she lands on her feet, but a kick to the gut follows and PICTURE PERFECT STUNNER! Cucaracha is out! Daniels climbs on top for the lateral press and sizes her up for a photo opportunity with his hands as Shelzi counts. 1... ... 2... ... 3! CHAD GOMEZ: Well, there it is, Bas! The King of the Lions Champion once again proves why he's the man - knocking off opponents in both title and non title matches. Him and his boys are 1-1 tonight.BASTIAN KRULL: And whether his Pride comes out on the winning side or the losing size is all on the shoulders of Ben Chrenshaw...Daniels collects his wife from ringside, hoisting her to her feet as La Cucaracha sits up in the ring. Hammerstein and Anna Matthews are out to check on her as the Daniels' look back at the ring and laugh, Robb hoisting his King of the Lions belt up high.

★ ★ ★ HERITAGE TITLE MATCH - COREY CRUELTY (c) vs. JACK ROSE ★ ★ ★
'How Soon is Now?' by the Smiths echoes through the arena as the crowd erupt in jubilation. Jack Rose steps out from behind the lion's head with Kenshin Takamura in tow as the fans cheer for the popular babyfaces. They walk across the elevated runway towards the ring making a conscious effort to appreciate the reception, before stepping through the ropes, climbing aloft the top turnbuckle and pointing to the skies.
DARKNESS COATS US!
The lights dim and lightning effects dart across the venue as the blast beats and jagged vocals of Avenged Sevenfold's "Darkness Surrounding" echo throughout the arena. After a moment or two, the heavy part kicks in and a sombre figure emerges in a longer duster jacket with his head bowed low. Corey Cruelty poses in the lion's mouth, arms forming an X over his crotch before he slowly makes his way down to the ring accompanied by his girlfriend, Kassie Dark.
JAKE AARONS: This match is scheduled for one fall with a twenty minute time limit and is for the Heritage Championship! Introducing first the challenger... from London, England! He weighs in at one hundred and eighty five pounds... JACK ROSE! His opponent... from Duluth, Minnesota! He weighs in at two hundred and thirteen pounds... he is the current, reigning and defending Heritage Champion... COREY CRUELTY!
Cruelty charges Rose, who easily side steps him and allows his momentum to carry him out of the ring. Frustrated, Cruelty reaches in to grab Rose's foot, but he kicks him which knocks him back... Jack Rose then grabs the top rope and slingshots himself over to take out the Heritage Champion! Rose gets up, does a fist pump and gets the crowd fired up with him. Kenshin Takamura looks, applauding while Kassie Dark yells some support for her man. Rose collects Cruelty, rolling him back into the ring and goes for the quick cover!
1-KICK OUT!
Rose gets up, tries to grab Cruelty but eats a forearm shot. Cruelty whips him into the ropes and scoops him up... looking for a big sidewalk slam or similar move but Rose kicks his legs up around Cruelty's neck and brings him down to the mat with a headscissors take down! Cruelty goes down to the mat, but refuses to stay down long - scrambling to his feet and right into a running European uppercut! Cruelty goes down and rolls out of the ring. He gets up, sees Kenshin Takamura standing a few feet away and freezes in place. Kassie Dark's shriek seems to pull him out of his inner mark out moment as he turns just in time to dodge Jack Rose's baseball slide attempt, and yanks the England born fighter out of the ring and clobbers him with a knee lift, then a couple of forearm clubs to the back before throwing him back inside the ring. He looks back at Takamura, then slides back into the ring.
CHAD GOMEZ: This man crush on Takamura is getting a bit creepy.
BASTIAN KRULL: Being respectful of a veteran is one thing in this sport, but Corey Cruelty can't let that get in his way of competing in these matches or he'll lose that Heritage championship here tonight. Jack Rose is not someone to take lightly.
Cruelty stomps away on Rose, then pulls him into a front face lock. He underhooks an arm and then rolls him through into a pin...
1...
KICK OUT!
Cruelty continues stomping on him after the kick out. He drops down on Rose's back and pulls his head up, delivering several forearm blows to the back of his neck before bringing him up... the Heritage Champion goes for a facebuster, but Rose pulls his legs out from underneath him and jackknife holds him!
1...
...
2...
KICK OUT!
BASTIAN KRULL: I like Jack Rose's tenacity with these flash pins. I think it will be a lot harder to catch someone off guard in singles competition like he did with the pin in last week's six person tag, as there are four less variables in this match and thus, it's a more focused affair for both men.
CHAD GOMEZ: We've failed to make mention about Kassie Dark being at ringside. Apparently Corey Cruelty has a girlfriend, and she's real because she's standing about ten feet away from us as his second here tonight. Do you think this something to keep his mind of the Takamura factor?
BASTIAN KRULL: It's hard to say, I think he may just want someone out here to watch his back as the landscape changes here in Lion's Road.
Cruelty stomps away on Rose, then pulls his challenger up and drops an elbow on the back of his neck! Rose falls down to the mat, but Cruelty grabs him in a front face lock and yanks him to his feet - clubbing him with a forearm to the back! Cruelty then Irish whips him into the corner where he hits sternum first... Rose stumbles back and Cruelty grabs him in an inverted face lock and drops him with an inverted DDT! Cruelty remains on top as Xavier Price makes the count!
1...
...
2...
KICK OUT!
The young Englishman will not stay down! Cruelty covers him again to be certain, but only gets a one count - he protests this but quickly turns his attention back to Rose at Kassie Dark's request, slapping on a rear chinlock. He tightens it up, wrenching it in as Rose tries to fight his way out of it... Rose gets up to his feet, elbows Cruelty in the gut but remains in the hold. He tries a knee lift, but remains in the hold. He goes back to the elbow... clobbering Cruelty in the bread basket and seemingly breaks free, but Corey reels him back in and takes him down to the mat with a kick to the midsection! As Rose is down on all fours, Cruelty grabs him and tries to hoist him up for the Oblivion... but Rose back drops him! Cruelty gets up, a bit groggy and eats a running European uppercut! Cruelty hits the ropes and plops down onto the mat, Rose gets up all fired up, fans behind him and he races to the top... he waits for Cruelty to get back to his feet and leaps off with a huracanrana! He rolls it through!

KICK OUT!
Rose gets up and immediately rushes the ropes, jumps onto the second rope and moonsaults over... COREY GETS HIS KNEES UP! Rose hits hard and rolls out of the ring in pain, Kenshin Takamura walks over to check on him and Cruelty is about to charge out after Rose when he sees Takamura there, and stops, heeding Xavier Price's call to stay in the ring.
BASTIAN KRULL: Corey Cruelty is a very... complex person these days. When he first burst on the scene, I had him pegged as a kid who might take a shortcut or two but lately, his killer instinct seems to have been a bit stifled with all that's gone on. As I said earlier, Rose isn't someone to take lightly.
CHAD GOMEZ: So are you, Bas Krull, encouraging Corey Cruelty to go out and press the attack?
BASTIAN KRULL: No, there's a difference between staying on him and pressing the attack on the outside. I think he should go out there and throw Rose back in so he doesn't have a chance to recover.
Takamura slaps Rose on the back as he climbs back up into the ring, Cruelty goes to greet him but Rose shoulder thrusts him in the gut! He soars over with a sunset flip!

KICK OUT!
Cruelty back rolls out of the pin, and Rose takes a moment or two to get to his feet. Cruelty hits the ropes... Rose gets up in time to deliver the London Eye! The tilt-a-whirl backbreaker connects! Rose is about to go up top when Robb Daniels and Ashton Bawolf come out of nowhere and begin attacking Kenshin Takamura! Rose's attention is averted, and he immediately leaps off the apron and takes out Bawolf and Takamura as Daniels moves in time, throwing Bawolf in his way! Cruelty goes out to help, but Rose greets him with some forearm shots and rolls him back in the ring! Rose slides in, pulls Cruelty up and Irish whips him into the ropes... he comes back out... SPIN OUT POWERBOMB! Rose calls for the Bed of Roses, and Lauren Parker-Daniels grabs Kassie Dark! Dark's screams catch Price's attention and he turns to see what's going on, Robb Daniels leaps onto the apron and decks Rose with a foreign object! Rose crumples off the top and to the mat, Cruelty looks up dazed and confused, and Daniels orders him to cover him. Cruelty drapes an arm over and Price turns around to make the count!

BASTIAN KRULL: Oh come on!
CHAD GOMEZ: You had to know it'd come to this! I think Corey Cruelty is in cahoots with Daniels!
BASTIAN KRULL: Then why would his wife grab Kassie Dark?
CHAD GOMEZ: Acting, Bas! She looks more than capable of playing the part!
Daniels gets in the ring and stomps on Rose, Takamura slides in and blindsides Daniels... knocking him out of the ring. Parker-Daniels throws Kassie Dark into the ring without issue and gathers up her husband and Bawolf leaving the Streak in the ring with Cruelty. Takamura questions him, but Cruelty appears to know just as much as he does!

★ ★ ★ IRON CHAMPIONSHIP, I QUIT MATCH - MATT PULER vs. BEN CHRENSHAW ★ ★ ★
"Panic" by the Smiths hits and Ben Chrenshaw steps out of the lion's mouth with his hands on his hips. He surveys the crowd as they barrage him with boos, but the sly smirk that adorns the former Heritage Champion's face tells you all you need to know about what he thinks of them. He casually strolls down the runway, reaching the ring before he nonchalantly enters and gets checked over by the referee in charge. The instrumental of Nelly’s “Heart of a Champion” begins playing as the mouth of the giant lion head opens up. As the beat kicks in, Matt Pulver steps out onto the ramp, checking his wrists and warming up a bit. He keeps his eyes focused on the ring as he walks down the ramp with the determined steps. Once he reaches the ring, he quickly steps through the middle and top rope and raises an arm to the audience. He takes off his Lion's Road T-shirt and backs into his corner, rolling his wrists, checking the ropes, stretching his legs and just warming up in general as he waits for the match to start.
JAKE AARONS: Ladies and gentlemen, this is your main event of Beach Blast! It is an I QUIT MATCH with no count outs, no disqualifications and no time limits and it is for the IRON CHAMPIONSHIP! Introducing first from London England! He weighs in at two hundred and thirteen pounds... THE SILENT ASSASSIN BEN CHRENSHAW! His opponent from Leksand, Sweden! He weighs in at one hundred and seventy five pounds... THE WRESTLING MACHINE MATT PULVER!
The bell sounds and both men methodically circle one another, eyes locked... Chrenshaw smirks and Pulver seems to sense what's coming because Chrenshaw lunges for his leg and Pulver hops out of the way! Chrenshaw gets to his feet and is greeted by a headbutt from Matt Pulver! The babyface wrestling machine backs him into the corner and fires away with a barrage of forearm strikes! He pulls the Silent Assassin out of the corner and snaps him over with a half-hatch suplex! He gets up, grabs the leg of Chrenshaw and tries to go for a single leg crab but Chrenshaw kicks him in the bad leg and scurries away as Pulver drops down to a knee wincing in pain. Referee Cordell Garner points the microphone in Pulver's direction, but he pushes it away in response. Pulver stands up and Chrenshaw walks forward, the two lock-up in the centre of the ring and the Assassin pulls a side headlock on the young babyface. Pulver doesn't stay in the hold for long, running Chrenshaw into the ropes but he comes back and shoulder blocks Pulver down to the mat, but Pulver ankle picks him from the ground, taking him to the mat! He jumps into side control and begins looking for a submission, but Chrenshaw rakes his eyes and Pulver rolls away in pain.
BASTIAN KRULL: Remember - all that is legal!
Chrenshaw reaches through the ropes, grabbing Pulver by the jaw - effectively putting him in a rope assisted camel clutch! He sits down on his back as he wrenches the hold on tighter, Pulver cries out in pain but offers a negative reply to every time he's asked if he wants to quit. Chrenshaw releases the hold and Pulver rolls out to the apron so to avoid Chrenshaw's grabbing his legs during this vulnerable moment of recovery. Chrenshaw hoofs him with a kick, sending him straight down to the ground before following out after him. Pulver roars to his feet, clubbing Chrenshaw with forearm strikes and backing him up... the Wrestling Machine grabs Chrenshaw and bashes him off the ring post! Chrenshaw falls to the ground, and Pulver begins stomping away on his leg! Pulver hops onto the apron, then leaps right back down with a double stomp to the leg!
CHAD GOMEZ: Look at this... I've never seen Matt Pulver that intense!
Pulver can't follow up on his attack because the double stomp hurt his own leg, Chrenshaw crawls away, using the guardrail to pull himself up. Pulver walks over and Chrenshaw kicks him in the gut to double him down. Chrenshaw tries to charge... NORTHERN LIGHT SUPLEX ON THE FLOOR! Chrenshaw arches his back in pain, grabbing his head as he groans. Chrenshaw grabs the guardrail and props himself up into a seated position, just as Pulver gets to his feet... the young lion begins lighting up the Silent Assassin's chest with vicious kicks! Pulver stops and doubles over, holding his bad leg in pain (as he was kicking with it). Ben Chrenshaw dives forward, chop blocking Pulver's leg from behind! Chrenshaw uses the free moment to recuperate before he gets up and throws Matt Pulver back into the ring.
BASTIAN KRULL: I know the video package before the match said that we'd find out who the best technical wrestler between these two men would be, but to me - this is a war.
CHAD GOMEZ: No doubt about that, I think these two men actually respect the hell out of each other despite their differences... but that's not going to stop them from destroying one another to get what they want.
Chrenshaw gets in and hoofs Pulver in the gut, then picks him up and whips him off the ropes... he nails him with a calf kick and then pulls him up and throws him right back outside the ring. Pulver lands hard, and Chrenshaw gets out of the ring to collect him... he picks him up and leads him down beside the runway with Cordell Garner rushing behind them with the microphone in hand. Chrenshaw hoists him onto the stage, then climbs up himself... he picks Pulver up and Irish whips him into the lion's mouth, Pulver bounces off and falls to the ground! Chrenshaw gets to him and is about to lock on the Wrinkle in Time when he gets upkicked! Chrenshaw staggers away, and Pulver gets up to one knee and leaps up with a lariat taking Chrenshaw to the ground! Matt Pulver gets up, pulls Ben Chrenshaw up also and begins bashing him head first off of the lion's nose! Pulver stops the attack, Chrenshaw slumps up against it and Pulver goes off for a moment. Suddenly, the lion's mouth lights up and opens... Chrenshaw falls back in surprise and Pulver walks back over.
CHAD GOMEZ: Better get some more cameras after these guys because it looks like they're going backstage!
BASTIAN KRULL: Get some security too!
Pulver grabs Chrenshaw and leads him through the tunnel, tossing him down the five steps that lead up to it. Chrenshaw crashes down to the bottom, and Pulver stops to knock some feeling back into his leg before climbing down the stairs. The Silent Assassin wallops Pulver with a yard stick right to the leg! Pulver falls over in pain and Chrenshaw gets up, bashing his leg with it until the yard stick breaks in two! Chrenshaw takes the longer end and begins choking Pulver with it, as referee Cordell Garner puts the mic in his face. Through gargles, Pulver manages to spit out - "NO!" - so Chrenshaw releases the choke and chucks the stick away. With Pulver down gasping for air, the former Heritage Champion climbs the stairs and leaps off... looking for a leg drop, but Pulver moves out of the way and Chrenshaw crashes hard but remains in a seated position... Pulver uses the bad leg to kick Chrenshaw a few times before pulling him up to his feet. He steps beside Chrenshaw, hooking him up for a Russian leg sweep and DOES IT AGAINST THE STAIRS! Both men hit hard and referee Cordell Garner is offered no choice but to ask both men if they want to quit. Chrenshaw doesn't answer, and neither does Pulver!
BASTIAN KRULL: These are wrestling moves, but there's nothing technical about a Russian leg sweep on the stairs!
Chrenshaw slowly crawls up the stairs while Pulver slaps some feeling back into his leg on the bottom and then proceeds to crawl up after him. The Silent Assassin emerges from the lion's mouth and stumbles to his feet, he ducks out of sight from Pulver who continues crawling back out the entrance. Pulver is just about back on stage when Ben Chrenshaw shows up behind him and pulls his bad leg, straightening it out and slams the button down to close the lion's mouth! The door comes crashing down on Pulver's bad leg, and he cries out in a world of pain but still refuses to submit. Chrenshaw opens the door up and tries to close it again, but Pulver yanks his leg free and lays in agony on the stage as Chrenshaw has to wait for the door to open up again. A few seconds later, the Silent Assassin is back out and grabs Pulver up - as he hops along on one leg - and drags him down the runway back toward the ring.
CHAD GOMEZ: I was using some hyperbole tonight when I said that Ben Chrenshaw would rip his leg off, but now... now I'm thinking he might actually do it! And Matt Pulver might be too damned stubborn to quit!
BASTIAN KRULL: I don't think there's an ounce of quit in either man, and this match is going to affect their careers for years to come!
Chrenshaw throws Pulver at the ring ropes, but he doesn't go through the ropes. Pulver props himself up on the middle rope as Chrenshaw charges him, Pulver clobbers him with a forearm and then grabs him as he's doubled over and begins unleashing some brutal Kawada kicks! Chrenshaw gets up, dazed as all hell, and Pulver grabs him in a rear waist lock... HE GERMAN SUPLEXES HIM FROM THE RUNWAY OVER THE TOP ROPE AND INTO THE RING! The fans chant HOLY SHIT as Pulver is hanging onto the top rope so he doesn't fall down, Chrenshaw looks like he's out cold! Pulver pulls himself up and leans over the top rope, trying to recuperate or plan his next move. Cordell Garner jumps into the ring and asks Chrenshaw if he quits, but the Silent Assassin shoves the microphone away. Pulver sees this, and smiles... launching himself onto the top rope and double stomping Chrenshaw! Pulver hurts his leg again, and his momentum causes him to fall out the other side of the ring.
BASTIAN KRULL: Both men's respective trios might only be a duo after tonight... there's not going to be much left of them!
After a couple minutes, Ben Chrenshaw gets up to his knees and looks around for Pulver... but is unable to find him, Chrenshaw drags himself over to the ropes and leans through... PULVER LEAPS UP AND CLAMPS ON A GUILLOTINE CHOKE! Pulver has it wrenched in deep! Cordell Garner gets in great position and shoves the microphone in proximity, asking him if he wants to quit. Chrenshaw is heard gasping for air, but doesn't say a word. He taps, but Garner tells him he has to utter the words! Chrenshaw does so such thing, instead grabs Pulver in a front waist lock and uses his last bit of strength to hoist him up... and drops him knee first on the edge of the apron! Pulver releases the hold and falls down to the floor while Chrenshaw falls back into the ring, struggling to breathe. At this point, Kenshin Takamura rushes down to ringside, around the ring and drops to his knees to check on Matt Pulver. Robb Daniels slowly walks down the runway also watching from there.
CHAD GOMEZ: Well, now there's two thirds of their respective Prides out here... this one might turn into another scene like on Mane Event.
Chrenshaw rolls out of the ring and seems a bit surprised by Takamura's presence, but Takamura puts his hands up and backs away. Chrenshaw smirks as he pulls Pulver up and rolls him into the ring, he reaches in, keeping an eye on Takamura and drags Pulver's legs to the ring post... he smashes the leg against the ring post. Pulver cries out in pain and Takamura winces as Chrenshaw does it a second time. Chrenshaw crosses his legs over and applies a figure four around the ring post! Pulver cries out in pain, but yells NO repeatedly when asked. Kenshin Takamura is clearly uncomfortable and looks concerned, but Ben Chrenshaw releases the hold and climbs into the ring. He takes the microphone from Cordell Garner and mounts Pulver... he shoves it in Pulver's face himself, but Pulver says NO! Chrenshaw lifts the mic up to his lips...
JUST QUIT ALREADY!
When Pulver says no again, Chrenshaw grabs him by the leg and locks on the Wrinkle in Time! Pulver grabs his head in agony, screaming NO! repeatedly as Garner asks him. Takamura rushes over to the stage hand area, grabs a towel and chucks it into the ring! Chrenshaw watches it fall as Garner calls for the bell, but the Silent Assassin refuses to release the hold! Robb Daniels rushes down to the ring and pleads with Chrenshaw to release the hold, and finally he does... Chrenshaw stands up, then falls to his knees and Daniels retrieves the Iron Championship and hands it to Chrenshaw who clutches it to his chest.
CHAD GOMEZ: Does that count? How does that count?
BASTIAN KRULL: Of course it counts! If a wrestler won't say I QUIT then it is well within his second's right to throw in the towel for his wrestler's safety!
Takamura gets in, checking on Pulver with several medics and stage hands already there. Chrenshaw stands up, looks down at Pulver... and smirks, Daniels pulls him away as the show comes to a close.
