* Joey Janela: Defeated White Belt Holder Wheeler Yuta @ 19:25 via pin in the best match of the series so far. Despite using a low blow to help him win, Janela gloats that he defeated Yuta in a straight up wrestling match without any tricks.

* Brandon Cutler: Cutler has been away from the business for a while. He broke in with the Young Bucks and worked early PWG. He took time away to get married and have a family. Janela mocks him for taking time away and only coming back because of the buzz in wrestling, but says Cutler will realize things have changed and that he’s not ready to be back.

White Belt Holder Joey Janela vs. Brandon Cutler: They lock up, Cutler quickly counters and takes down Janela. Janela counters out and talks trash. Janela to the ropes, ties up Cutler and escapes. They work into a test of strength, and Janela drops down into a knee bar. Cutler escapes, but Janela keeps control and lays in chops. Knee strikes follow and Cutler cuts him off with a dropkick. He follows with kicks and a flying forearm. They trade strikes and Janela hits a sliding dropkick. Janela starts working the arm, grounding Cutler. Janela lays in strikes and dumps Cutler. Cutler cuts off the suicide dive and hits a slingshot elbow for 2. Cutler now lays in strikes, working over Janela in the corner. Mounted rights follow. Janela counters out with a Liger bomb and both men are down. Janela to his feet first and lands running knee strikes, covering for 2. Janela takes Cutler up top and follows. They battle for position, knocks him off and hits a rough looking forearm off the ropes. Back to the roped and Janela hits rights and a DVD for 2. Cutler hits an enziguri and cobra clutch slam for 2. Janela quickly cuts him off and hits a package piledriver for 2. Cutler blocks the superkick and hits an enziguri. Janela levels him with a rolling lariat and both are down again. Janela lays in kicks, a superkick, and a suplex for 2. Janela hits two more superkicks and heads up top and hits the double stomp for the win. White Belt Holder Joey Janela defeated Brandon Cutler @ 11:10 via [**¾] This was an overall pretty good match, Cutler looked off a bit at times, and it lacked a really good story, which really added to some of the previous matches.

– White Belt Holder Joey Janela moves on to face James Storm in the next episode.

– Post match, Janela cuts a promo and runs down James Storm as being irrelevant, since it’s not 2003 anymore. He then runs down wrestlers from Memphis on top of that.

– End scene.

– Thanks for reading.

This was an overall pretty good episode but felt as if it was missing something compared to recent episodes. Still, overall, the series continues to be strong and fun.
