Martin “Marty the Moth” Casaus vs. Alex Chamberlain: Marty is in full wacky mind games mode here, leading to a lot of stalling to begin. They do nothing for two-minutes and they brawl a bit until Chamberlain grounds the action. Post break, and Chamberlain slams Marty to the buckles, he no sells and slams his own head to the buckles. Marty attacks, working over Chamberlain in the corner with strikes. Marty then follows with elbow strikes, and then dumps Chamberlain. They brawl on the floor, back in and Marty hits a dropkick for 2. He grounds the action. Chamberlain fights back and hits clotheslines, chops and a side back breaker for 2. Chamberlain now lays in rights, they trade, and Marty hits a northern lights suplex for 2. Marty now misses a moonsault and Chamberlain hits the DDT for the win. Alex Chamberlain defeated Martin “Marty the Moth” Casaus @ 12:12 via pin [**¼] This was ok, the work was generally fine, but there was no real sense of urgency and it felt really flat.
The Slambinos vs. The Prophecy: The Prophecy appears in the ring and they brawl. They spill to the floor and then two back in the ring. Everyone back to the floor, they trade strikes, we get a ref bump on the floor, and the match is thrown out. The Slambinos vs. The Prophecy went to a double DQ @ 1:20 [NR] It as short and not even a good brawl.
– Austin Aries arrives and buries the previous brawl and says he’s about wrestling. He’ll defend the Impact World title now.
Austin Aries vs. Chris Bey: Aries grounds things right away, but Bey makes the ropes. They lock up, Aries works a side headlock, and then hits arm drags and then a basement dropkick. Bey picks up the pace, hits a double stomp and Aries powders. Back in and Aries lays in strikes, but Bey gets a cradle for 2. The enziguri follows and Bey heads up top and misses the frog splash; the brainbuster finishes it. Champion Austin Aries defeated Chris Bey @ 3:20 via pin [**] This was ok for the time allowed, and easily the most entertaining angle Aries has been involved in so far.
– Post match, Aries lays out Bey and Luke Hawx runs him off. Hawx challenges Aries to a match.
Eli Drake vs. Alex Hammerstone: Hammerstone does crotch chops to Drake and gets HHH chants. They lock up and Hammerstone overpowers drake to begin. They trade shoulder tackles, Drake to he apron and hits a slingshot shoulder block. Drake then grounds the action, but Hammerstone escapes and hits a dropkick. Post break, and Drake looks to ground things. They trade strikes, and then Hammerstone beats him down in the corner. Drake fires back with a lariat and Russian leg sweep for 2. Hammerstone cuts him off and takes Drake up top, Drake fights him off but leaps into an overhead belly to belly. Hammerstone follows with rights, but Drake cuts him off with a neck breaker for 2. The powerslam follows for 2. Drake takes Hammerstone up top, follows, Hammerstone fights him of and hits the missile dropkick or 2. Drake counters into a single armed powerbomb for 2. Hammerstone hits rights and a slam, heads up top but Drake pops up and hits the superplex and covers for 2 after a delay. They trade strikes, Hammerstone counters gravy train, but Drake gets it the second time and picks up the win. Eli Drake defeated Alex Hammerstone @ 12:37 via pin [**¾] This was a pretty good match overall, with Hammerstone working hard, and Drake coming off like a complete star.
– Eli Drake vs. Alex Chamberlain vs. and Jeff Cobb vs. Wes Briscoe are the final four in the Ring Warriors Grand Championship Tournament.
– End scene.
