Your hosts are Matt Martlaro & S. William Regal.
Donny Marlow & C.J. Parker vs. Calvin Raines & James Bronson for the Tag Team Titles: Odd set of challengers as Raines and Big E Langston lost the belts to the current champs while Bronson scored a non-title victory over the titleholders along with Eric Rowan...not sure what happened to those particular duos, but here we are. Martlaro notes that Raines & Langston had their rematches at non-televised effects but were unable to recapture the belts, so they speculate that Raines is looking for a new partner to regain championship status. Raines and Bronson actually pull out a Doomsday Device on Parker but Marlow breaks up Raines' pin attempt after that. C.J. finally makes the tag after flipping out of a double back suplex attempt...the grass hut is afire! Marlow backdrops Bronson out of the ring immediately on entry and goes to town on Raines...he wraps things up in surprisingly quick fashion with the Samoan Drop on Raines to retain the Tag Team Titles.
Time for a word with our new Heavyweight Champion Leo Kruger...he takes a passing shot at Justin Gabriel, saying he's the greatest South African to hold the title. He's also perfectly fine with taking credit for Bo Rotundo's injury, though he adds that it was unintentional. He has his new championship banner brought out and wants it to go in the spot where Bo's banner currently hangs...but Husky Harris takes exception to that. Before anything can escalate, General Manager Maxine Perez comes out and says SHE dictates how the banners will be hung. She also announces tonight's main event: Husky vs. Dean Ambrose vs. Damien Sandow...and the winner gets the first shot at Kruger next week.
Briley Pierce still works here and he interviews Husky backstage...Richie Steamboat interrupts and apologizes for last week's accidental superkick. Husky leaves and suddenly we hear Aksana Raudoniene screaming...Richie leaves the interview area and sees Husky standing in front of a fallen Aksana. Aksana screams that Husky shoved her down...and Steamboat immediately superkicks Harris! Steamboat hugs Aksana to comfort her and we see a DEVIOUS~! look on her face...
Audrey Marie vs. Leah West for the Women's Title: Regal notes that Leah was initially trained by Lance Storm...he also comments that Lance is always "a laugh a minute". :) The match is...about what you'd expect between two fairly new ladies...Audrey gets the win by reversing Leah into the Roundup(Eye Of The Hurricane).
Briley Pierce still works here and he interviews newcomer Antonio Cesaro...HEYYYYY~! Some of you may know him better as Claudio Castagnoli. He throws some foreign words out so he can note that us stupid Americans can only speak one language. His in-ring debut is next week...and he's still very European.
Abraham Washington vs. Peter Orlov: Okay, Orlov was a face last week but he seems to be a heel again this week. Orlov escapes an early slam attempt and clips the knee, focusing his attack on the leg after that. Abe recovers enough to kick Orlov out of the ring...he tries to rally and hits the Flapjack, but Orlov grabs his bad leg to keep him from hitting the ropes. However, Washington stomps him in the face to break away before dropping a standard elbow for the victory.
Briley Pierce STILL works here and he interviews Byron Saxton, Naomi Night, and Cameron Lynn. Naomi and Cameron issue an open challenge for a tag match next week...that was some interesting verbage.
Husky Harris vs. Dean Ambrose vs. Damien Sandow: These three men were in the finals of the Super 8 Tournament for the vacant Heavyweight Title that Leo Kruger won...the winner gets the first shot at the new champ. Husky's had some time to recover from that Steamboat superkick earlier in the show but he's in a tough spot against two heels. Ambrose and Sandow target the head and neck after the earlier superkick...but as you'd expect, the alliance falls apart over who gets to pin Harris for the win. Sandow gets the advantage with a swinging neckbreaker, but Husky recovers in time to break up that pin attempt. Husky goes after Sandow but misses an avalance and gets rolled up...for two.
Ambrose re-enters the fray as everyone goes for pins on everyone...Husky rams Sandow back into the corner to block an M-14(snap neckbreaker) attempt...then Ambrose pulls himself up on the ropes to avoid a baseball slide from Sandow. That leaves Husky with Dean...Husky delivers the uranagi but Sandow surprises him with an O'Connor Roll...for two, but the kickout lands Sandow on top of Ambrose...for two as Husky breaks it up. Husky avalanches both men repeatedly but runs into a boot from Ambrose...Midnight Special is attempted but Husky fights out of it, then Sandow clotheslines Ambrose out of the ring. Husky takes advantage and plants Sandow with the Wave Of The Future...and gets the pin to earn his title shot!
Next week: Leo Kruger vs. Husky Harris for the Heavyweight Title. So long from the Sunshine State!
