KWC Escape the Cage Qualifier;
Eddy Valintino def. Il Dio
Despite being a heel versus heel match-up this as a decent opener after Eddy snuck away with a roll-up victor over Dio last Sunday at Eruption. Valintino tried to apply some shady tactics here too and they paid off because in the end Eddy reversed a Pump Handle slam, slipping around Dio to hit a low blow, not in sight of the referee and hit the Third Degree to qualify.

Eddy, much like at Eruption, fled the premises quickly to avoid the anger-filled Italian.

Singles Match;
Zeke vs. Matt; Double Countout.
These two superstars have been feuding over the past month as they continue to rise through the ranks in King’s. Matt used a very technical approach to this match, which paid of early on as he grounded Zeke to prevent any form of offence. Zeke found away back into it though, hitting a huge dropkick and an STO for a nearfall but in the end Zeke attempted a superplex but lost his balance, falling to the outside and yanking Matt with him, hitting a neckbreaker like manoeuvre. The fall was too hard to handle though and both men were counted out.

Post-Match Zeke was hobbling to the back as Matt was being helped up. Matt jumped Zeke from behind, hitting a sick back suplex with Zeke landing on his head.

Singles Match
Cyrus Black def. Diamond Dallas Minimum Wage.
A short re-match from Eruption as Diamond Dallas was looking for some revenge, unfortunately he didn’t find any as Black once again dominated. Cyrus quickly finished DD off with The Anxiety.

Six-Man Tag Team Match.
Angel Reid and Tag Team Champions Joseph Steel and David Justice def. AJ Mathews, Dragon Mask and Sean Connor
A good tag team bout to cap off the first half of the show. Steel Justice controlled early on, making frequent tags to each other as they worked over Sean Connor. Connor found a break to give the faces a go at it though as he tagged in Mathews who hit Steel with a running bulldog that busted Joe’s nose and then a German suplex. In the end AJ was still in control but it was a distraction that caused a sneaky finish as Justice hit Mask which a suplex off the apron allowing Reid to hit a distracted AJ with the Crucifier for the win.

Intermission

Singles Match;
Ricky Smith def. High Voltage.
Another re-match from Eruption, this time from the pre show where High Voltage defeated Ricky Smith. The same could not be said for the match however as although Voltage had it out for Smith in the opening minutes which huge power moves, Smith snuck away with a victory after a huge lariat followed by a small package to garner his first win.

Singles Match;
Cody Rejero def. Chris Jackel.
Fast-paced battles to introduce the main event with two of KWC’s rising stars going at it to add another win to their decent tally. Jackel surprised Rejero in the opening seconds, locking in his MMA Chokehold almost immediately. Cody nearly tapped but found his way to the ropes. Rejero realised that this match wasn’t going to be a breeze and was very weary of what he chose to do for the rest of the match, not going to the top rope as often. In the end Jackel went for his chokehold again but Rejero countered, pushing him into the ropes before nailing him with a Russian leg sweep. Cody ran over to the turnbuckles, undoing a cover to distract the referee who went to fix it. As Jackel rose up Rejero connected with a low blow and then a Canadian Driver for the cheap win.

Rejero back-peddled up the ramp post match as Bull Bradley hurdled the crowd rail and jumped into the ring, picking Chris up and snapping him with a spinebuster. Cody smirked and laughed a Jackel’s pain but karma struck and Tommy Stardust cam from behind, assaulting Rejero. Tommy beatdown Air Canada with a chair, busting him open to end the segment.

KWC Championship Match;
Kevin Hart def. Ace Bennett via DQ.
The crowd had been anticipating this match all night after witnessing the classic Hart vs. Bennett matches and feuds in other companies. This match did live up to it’s expectations lasting about 12 minutes before it’s abrupt end. The two men locked up to begin the match as Ace was quick whipped into the ropes only to subsequently hit Hart with a corkscrew headscissor, Kev rolled away from the Moonsault however, hitting a swinging neckbreaker and then a springboard elbow. This fast pace continued the entire match, the crowd on the edge of their seats. The go home sequence saw Ace duck a dropkick to hit Hart with a shining wizard. Ace lifted up Kevin but Hart reversed and hit a Superkick. The Champion ascended the top rope for the Maple Leaf Marvel but an outsider, causing the DQ, pushed him off the top rope.

The outsider turned out to be Angel Reid whom knocked Kevin onto his head before nailing a package piledriver. Ace tripped Reid up but Bennett was too weak to follow it up and Reid quickly dropped Ace down with the Crucifier. Reid stood tall as KWC ended.

Ace Bennett’s music hits and he comes out to open the show. Bennett says that he’s pissed, he’s pissed that he worked for his title shot and Angel Reid took the chance for him to become champion away from him. Ace Bennett says that he wants Angel Reid one-on-one right now! The crowd pop but Nick Aldis makes his way to the stage, he says that if Ace wants Reid that bad he will give him the chance, but not now, tonight in the main event. The winner of the match will walk away with he number one Contendership for the next pay-per-view. Ace is happy at this and goes to leave but is attacked from behind by Angel Reid who viciously stomps on him. Angel hosts Bennett up for the Crucifier and looks to put him away but Kevin Hart makes the save, chasing Reid out of the ring as he helps Bennett up.

Tag Team Match;
KWC Assault Title Escape the Cage Qualifier
AJ Mathews and Dragon Mask def. Diamond Dallas Minimum Wage and Ricky Smith.
A quick tag team bout to open the show, two people will be qualifying for the Escape the Cage Match tonight. Ricky Smith found offence for his team early on using old school, technical manoeuvres to ground Dragon Mask and prevent him for using his impressive speed and athletic ability. It all turned around when Smith tagged his partner in and Dragon Mask dodged Dallas’ lariat to connect with a Hurricanrana and tag in AJ Mathews who hit Diamond Dallas with the Eastern Execution.

A graphic appeared on the screen post-match featuring AJ Mathews, Dragon Mask and Eddy Valintino with three empty spaces, who else will qualify? Find out in the upcoming weeks.

The KWC ring announcer announces that at ‘KWC Escape at All Costs’ Zeke will face Matt one on one.

Pick your Poison;
Singles Match
Matt def. Cyrus Black.
Zeke picked a man whom has been very impressive as of late to take on the Submission Specialist Matt. Black caught Matt of guard early on catching him with various suplex variations and then a slingshot elbow into the ring. Black countered Matt’s submissions on many occasions but in the end Black hit Matt with a double underhook backbreaker and ascended the top rope but Matt dodged the Halo, putting his knee’s up before looking in the crossface and forcing Cyrus to tap.

Singles Match.
Tommy Stardust def. Cody Rejero.
Stardust requested this match to prove that he can beat Rejero in one-on-one competition. Tommy went all out in the beginning, hitting a Lou Thez press and stiff punches before applying an abdominal stretch turned into a facebuster. ‘Air Canada’ fought back with some interest moves like a springboard Moonsault leg sweep and a standing half phoenix splash. The go-home-sequence saw Tommy hit Rejero with an STO and climbed to the top for the Splash from Above but Rejero moved and Tommy crashed. Rejero lifted Stardust for the Canadian Driver, however, Stardust reversed out of it for a Superkick and the pinfall.

Tommy Stardust celebrated possibly the end to this two-month rivalry.

Intermission.

Pick your Poison;
Singles Match.
Zeke def. Eddy Valintino.
Matt, much like Zeke, also went for the rising star route, as Eddy Valintino was Zeke’s poison. Valintino put up a valiant effort against the Irishman; he even went as far as executing his finisher the Third Degree to muster up just a two count. Zeke realised that this made wasn’t going to be an easy drive by after that Third Degree and stepped it up, even hitting the Tranceout for a two count. In the end the two men were on the top rope and Zeke ducked a punch from Eddy to lock his arm around Valintino’s neck and nail a top rope belly-to-belly-suplex and pick up the pinfall.

Zeke celebrated but not for long as Matt ran down to the ring with a lead pipe in his hand which he used to choke the Fairytale in Trance before locking in the crossface. The officials had to split the two men apart to prevent any further damage.

Tag Team Match;
KWC Tag Team Championships
KWC Tag Team Champions Steel Justice def. Sean Connor and Chris Jackel.
A decent tag team match to introduce the main event. Steel Justice work extremely well as a team as expected and controlled the majority of this match. Jackel and Connor needing something to do at the moment but not many storylines are being generated. The challengers did get some strikes in as Jackel locked in his chokehold on Joe Steel but in the end Steel Justice rid the scene or Connor and nailed Jackel with The Fistful of Steel and Justice for all to retain.

As Steel Justice are celebrating they are attack from behind by two men who look almost identical despite on wearing long pants (trousers) and the other wearing tights, the one in tights has a beard. They both have Red X’s on the left side of their bottoms. The quickly head to the back after making their statement.

Main Event
KWC Title Number One Contendership.
Angel Reid def. Ace Bennett
Prior to the match Kevin Hart comes down to ringside to watch the action. Much like almost every other KWC Main Event this was the match of the night as both men proved once again why they have very bright futures in any company they choose to enter. Reid kept Ace out of the air early on hitting an impressive scoop powerslam before locking in an Anaconda Vice, which very nearly made his opponent tap. Ace fought back, taking to the air with flying forearms and a splash before he changed style and took Reid out with armdrags and a German. Angel Reid kept yelling at Hart when he was on the offence which, nearing the end of the match, was a mistake as Ace took advantage of Reid looking away and struck Angel with a shining Wizard. Ace tried to place Reid on the top rope but Angel countered and nailed Bennett with the Crucifier! 1, 2, No, Bennett gets a foot on the rope. The two continued to battle as Ace set Angel up for the Syracuse Drop. Reid was quick to bend the rules though as he kicked Ace in the balls, sending his opponent to the mat. Angel then hit a sick diving stomp to pick up the win.

Angel celebrated his, some would say unfair, victory over Ace as Kevin Hart held his title in the air, during a stare off to end the show.

KWC Champion Kevin Hart’s music hits as he makes his way down to the ring. He plays a package on the tron of Angel Reid cheap win over Ace Bennett last week to regain Contendership to the KWC Title. Kevin says that he finds it unfair that Angel Reid is contender once again after losing his first title shot and then taking a shortcut to another one. He demands that Ace Bennett gets another shot because while he’s champion he wants to face the best and most deserving wrestling in the company. KWC Owner, Nick Aldis, made his way out to the ring. Aldis says that he hears what Kevin is saying and he somewhat agrees so tonight Ace Bennett will get another chance to be added to the World Title Match at Escape at All Costs but, since Hart wants Ace to have another chance so much he will have to team with Bennett against Angel Reid and a partner of Reid choice. If Hart and Ace win, the match at Escape at All Costs will be a triple threat but if Reid and his partner win then Reid will choose the stipulation for their match.

Escape the Cage Qualifying Match.
Cyrus Black def. Sean Connor.
Black has been on somewhat of a roll lately as Connor seems to have faded into the background. Cyrus did well against Connor here, making some well-placed moves to keep Connor on the ground. Sean tried his hardest two, connecting with springboard Senton at one point in the match which garnered him a near fall. In the end it looked as if Connor was going to cause and upset but Black reversed the Air Package to hit The Anxiety for the victory.

Something seemed up with Black as he didn’t celebrate and simply walked to the back.

Singles Match
Bull Bradley def. High Voltage
Two big wrestlers squared off in this one and although it may seem even it was almost totally one sided as Bradley dominated. I wouldn’t be surprised if this match was only made to make Bradley look good. Bradley took down Voltage on numerous occasions in the first couple of minutes with powerslams. Voltage did get some offence but not enough because after five minutes of the match Bull Bradley finished off Voltage with a hard spear.

Instead of Bradley’s music, Chris Jackal’s music hit as Jackal made his way out to the stage. Jackal tells Bradley that they are 1-1 in singles competition so why don’t they have a tie breaker, at the next big event Escape at All Costs and we’ll see who’s the Bull and who’s the Red Cloth that the bull will target and demolish.

Steel Justice makes there way out to the ring next, they tell the KWC Staff to replay the video of the cowardice attack on them last week. The video is played and two nearly identical men are shown assaulting Steel Justice on the ramp. The demand that these two make their way out now. An unfamiliar tune hits and the attackers come out to entrance stage, the slightly taller brother has a microphone. He introduces himself his name is X Jack and the man next to him is his brother X Matt. They’re new to KWC and they noticed that there wasn’t much of a tag division so they decided to pop in and eventually win the titles. Steel Justice tells the execution Brothers that they will never earn a title shot. X Jack tells them they’re wrong because they have a contenders match against the champions right now.

Non-Title
Tag Team Match
X Jack and X Matt def. KWC Tag Team Champions Steel Justice.
A great match featuring the debuting execution brothers. The X’s joined the company on a short-term contract due to the lack of tag team’s in KWC. Justice seemed to cocky in the beginning which let X Jack take control of the match. Justice regained control later on as Joe Steel took Matt down with a European Uppercut and tagged in his partner who attempted the Justice Striker but Matt caught the knee and countered the move into a small package for the three count.

Intermission.

The KWC Tag Team Champions were left in complete shock as the new number one contenders celebrated with the overjoyed crowd. Jack and Matt motioned that the titles would soon be theirs.

We see a video of backstage on the titantron as Cyrus Black walks past High Voltage who says ‘Hey bud, How’s it going’ Cyrus does not reply, looks at the floor and breathes out heavily before he continues walking.

Singles Match.
Tommy Stardust def. Matt
A good battle for these two men, Stardust is really starting to rise up the card lately as what seems like a good contender for a championship, maybe even the assault championship if he can qualify in the next couple of weeks. Matt is involved in a good feud with Zeke who isn’t in action tonight, the two already have a match set for the next large event. The ending of this match saw Matt in control until the pyro blasted a Zeke’s music hit which allowed the distraction for Stardust to trip Matt up an connect with the Splash from Above for the victory.

Stardust fled, obviously not want a piece of Matt after a victory that could’ve angered him. Matt got to his feet and was red in the face. He kicked the turnbuckles hard as Zeke sneakily slid in threw the bottom rope and spun his rival around to nail the Tranceout! The audience went wild, as Zeke stood tall.

Singles Match.
Eddy Valintino def. Dragon Mask w/AJ Mathews.
A match to introduce the main event, which involved three of the six KWC Assault Title Escape the Cage match at Escape at All Costs. Like Stardust, Valintino is another wrestler quickly moving through the ranks, picking ups wins week in an week out. Mask has a pretty good tag team with AJ but it doesn’t look to last much longer as they may be put into a singles feud. In the end Eddy avoided the Dragonrana so he could pull out the Third Degree and steal the victory.

After the match, Eddy stood over Dragon and continued to taunt him but AJ Mathews had seen enough as he hopped into the ring and delivered an Eastern Execution to the ‘Natural’.

Main Event
Tag Team Match
Ace Bennett and KWC Champion Kevin Hart def. Angel Reid and Cody Rejero.
A good main event to cap of the show. Reid’s surprise partner turned out to be Cody Rejero, which was definitely a surprise. However Cody proved that he can hang with the main eventers and this will most likely result in a push for the Canadian. Bennett and Hart were a very talent duo and performed very well together. Reid, as KWC’s top heel, pulled out some shifty manoeuvres but was almost caught in the act by the referee when performing a low blow. The ending saw Rejero in firm control as he readied for the Canadian Driver but Bennett reversed the finisher with an STO and tagged in Hart as Ace dragged Cody into the corner for the 450 Splash from the KWC Champion.

Hart held Ace’s arm high in the air after their impressive tag team outing. However, the match at Escape at All Costs now features Angel Reid vs. Ace Bennett vs. Kevin Hart so the champion is in jeopardy. The show seems to be ending but a masked man runs down the aisle and jumps Hart and Ace with a chair. The masked man targeted Hart a placed the chair on the champion before connecting with a sick standing Shooting Star Press. He then turned his attentions to Ace as he lifted Bennett up and placed his head between his legs. The masked man then nailed Cyrus Black’s Anxiety! The crowd booed heavily as the man removed his mask to reveal that he is infact Cyrus Black. Reid held Black’s arm in the air along with Rejero’s as the three men stood tall to end the show.
