Live from The Hammerstein Ballroom, New York/USA
Show starts with a promotional video telling us that we are just over a week away from EAM Promotions second biggest event of the year Supersplash! Then the scene cut's. It's black for a couple of seconds before lights suddenly emits. We can now see that the view is from inside a cupboard of sorts. A couple of hands reaches for the highest shelf, but we cannot see who it is. The pair of hands pulls down a couple of old 'Rasslin boots. They are red, black and white, and look strangely familiar. We cut to the Jamboree vignette...
No idea. Hogan.
Scene opens in chairman Emil A's office where he and Mickie discuss last weeks happenings, with the masked attackers on Charlotte and Jamie, dressed as Mickie. Emil then asks Mickie if she's thought about that other thing they talked about. Mickie then asks which one of them. Emil then replies, " about Supersplash " Mickie says she has, and she think she'll do it. Emil A. smiles and gesture for her to come and sit in his lap. She does and he kiss her. Then he says " You are the most wonderful woman in the world Mickie. Nobody can replace you. Not in EAM, or in my private life. You made it all possible. I would not deny you a thing in the world world. If you have thought about it, I won't stand in your way " Mickie kisses him and we cut to the arena....
The commentators welcome us to another edition of Jamboree and then tell us that next weekend it's Superplash, but before that, EAM will be live from Cannes, France, during the annual film festival. Where the semi finals in the TV Title Tournament will take place, together with some other burning hot bookings. Then after that, we will be going live from The United Arab Emirates for Supersplash! But that's next week, now it's Jamboree and we have many good matches for you tonight as well, so take it away Melissa!
Tag Team Matchup
World's Greatest Tag Team (Shelton Benjamin & Charlie Haas) Vs Lucha Bros (Fenix and Pentagon Jr) w/Saline De La Renta
Awesome match to open the show. Both teams look great. Lot of high flying, fast paced action and this is Lucha Bros restart time their career. Signature and finishing moves from the both of them, Haas of Pain and a T Bone for 2 counts but at the end of the match Fenix with a 450 and Pentagon with a Packaged Piledriver for the 3 count and win.
We get a backstage promo from the masked luchador who attacked Adam Cole last week. He says he's sick of Cole's attitude, and the way he treats the boys. He wants to be out of the group, and he wants a match against Cole at Supersplash, so he can be bruised, beate and humiliated in front of all the EAM promotions' fans. He then takes off the mask and reveals who it is. It's Roderick Strong! WTF?! Strong says he's done being a serf and standing in the shadows of others. Now he wants to prove why he got hired in EAM in the first place. Because he's one of the best in the world, and Cole knows it is true! We cut back to the arena and our next match.
Hmm strange but I guess Undisputed Era are over. Cole/Dragon a team but Strong got sick of it and quit. Should be a good match.
Singles Matchup
Ricochet Vs Zack Sabre Jr.
Pretty good match. Kind of sad how hard Ricochet has fallen after winning so much but he gets the win here. Sabre gets some good submission moves in and maybe Ricochet could go after a tag title again with someone like Cedric. They’ve been messing around online calling themselves the Inner City Machine Guns. Ricochet wins after a ssp.
After the matchup, whoever wins it. When Ricochet walks up the rampway and gets to the stage, the camera follows him backstage to the Gorilla position, where he almost bumps into Orange Cassidy. Ricochet stops in his track, asking Cassidy if there is something he want. Cassidy does not respond, but instead he pulls out a pair of sunglasses from the breastpocket of his denim jacket and gives then to Ricochet. Ricochet accepts them and puts them on. Then Cassidy does a gesture with his hands. like " I see you, you see me " or do he mean, that he wants to wrestle Ricochet?! This Orange Cassidy is a enigma of a man. But it seems as Ricochet understood what he meant, as he nodds. Cassidy leaves, with his hands in his pockets, saying nothing. Leaving Ricochet left alone with his new sunglasses.
Ricochet is a nice guy. Hard to ever see him as a bad guy. Could be a good entertaining match, don’t think they should be a team though because Cassidy is with Tornado/MOX but a match could be a good match. Thought Cassidy vs Lee was happening but probably best if it doesn’t.
We cut to another place backstage where we hook up with Seth Rollins and Becky Lynch. Seth's trying to cheer Becky up, as her career in EAM has not been good as of late, suffering a big loss to Charlotte recently to mention one. Seth asks if there is anything he can do to cheer her up, and Becky say it might be. She then asks to get rid of Charlotte for her. Seth smiles and tell Becky to try and ignore her. She's nothing compared to Becky! Suddenly there is a cough and Seth and Becky turns around. Charlotte is standing together with a fair haired guy. Charlotte asks politely if Becky had anything to do with the attack on her last week. Becky asks why she would even care about her? Charlotte gets angry, telling Becky that she better tell the truth or else.... Seth goes in between them and asks, yeah? what else? Then the fair haired guy goes in between them, trying to calm them all down. Seth then asks what buffoon this is? Charlotte then bitchslaps Seth, telling him that....the fair haired guy interrupts Charlotte, introducing himself as David Flair. Charlotte's big brother. And if somebody has anything to say about Charlotte, he or she can say it to him. Becky laughs, asking if Charlotte suddenly can't stand up for herself? It all culminates into all four almost going at each other, but Charlotte then challenge Becky and Seth for a match tonight. A special tag team challenge. Seth and Becky Vs Charlotte and David. Becky accepts before neither one gets to say anything about it. We cut to the arena.
Makes sense. Think Andrade as her partner would work better since they’re a couple though.
The commentators tell us that they just got word that Seth & Becky Vs Charlotte and David will be tonights main event.
Singles Matchup
Paige Vs Nikki Cross
Fun British match between the both of them. Both look pretty solid. Cross Fire for a 2 count but at the end Paige gets the win after the Paige Turner. I’m actually surprised Paige gets so much. Must be popular with Emil. In an alternate reality Paige could be retired but still wrestlers which is something that doesn’t happen much.
We get a promo from Khabib. This is shot like a UFC promo of sorts, as Khabib talks about his last encounter with McGregor. And everyone knows how that ended. He then talks about how he looks at his contract with EAM Promotions as a huge opportunity to renew himself, to add to his already huge legacy. And if he has to bead Conor again to prove to everyone that he's the real deal. Hell! He would do it anytime! We then get to see Conor's side of the case, where he talks about his MMA career, and then his wrestling career, which really can't be compared. Conor really wants the EAM audience to give him a chance, but they have been though on him up to now. Maybe this is his last chance to prove it. If so, he will make the best of it, either given outcome!
Should be awesome. Wonder if there’s any rules or just a normal match. Khabib promo in Russian.
Singles Matchup
Aleister Black Vs AJ Styles
Solid match from both guys. Styles Clash with a kick out and a Black Mass kick out. Springboard 450 splash from AJ for a close 2. I definitely think when it’s all done AJ will be in the Hall of Fame. BLACK MASS....COVER...1...STYLES REVERSES...2...3...IT’S OVER. STYLES BEATS BLACK.
After the match, whoever wins it, the winner cut's a promo and says he's got a challenge for a certain someone for Supersplash. He challenge Keith Lee to a match at the summer's biggest event! We then cut to commercial break.
Nice. Should be a good match. Could be a tough challenge for Lee. Don’t think Black is at that level yet but Styles could have a real good chance and magical things happen on the big PPV’s. Plus if Lee is in another match.
As we get back from commercial break, we are about to kick off our main event of the night, which was announced earlier, as Becky accepted Charlotte's challenge for a intergender tag team matchup on the behalf of both herself and Seth.
Special Tag Team Challenge
Seth Rollins & Becky Lynch Vs Charlotte & David Flair
Big main event for sure. Would be nice to see Andrade involved with Charlotte though. Good back and forth tag match from everyone involved with even Charlotte whipping Rollins. Flair looks okay but is much older now. Becky takes down Charlotte with a Go to Bed. Rollins with a Stomp to Flair. Charlotte locks in the Figure Eight on Rollins!. Becky breaks it up. At the end of the match Becky and Charlotte take each other out which leads to Flair thinking he’s about to get the pin on Seth who reverses with the God’s Last Gift for the 3 count!. Becky and Rollins get a needed win as we end the show. Maybe they could go after the mixed tag in the future. An idea.
