EAM Promotions - Season 14

[MOX]

Episode #15
Live from The Grand Ballroom, New York/USA

Show starts with a recap of last week's show, where we see Leah Von Dutch sending a message to The Harem and Alexa, challenging for Alexa's title, even said Alexa could choose the stipulation. The Harem hogs the limelight these days, as Penelope Ford sucessfully defended her Primetime Bitch Title against Melina, and Piper and Martina dominated Lylah and Isis in quite an upset to retain their tag team titles. But, they will have to be on the alert tonight as well, because the list of challengers is not yet finished. We cut to the Spotlight vignette...

EAM Primetime Bitch Championship Matchup
Penelope Ford (c) Vs Shotzi Blackhart

Shotzi gets some good offence in while Ford comes back looking for the finish...

Asuka walks in during the match, tripping like a thief. Because that's just what she is. She once again steal Shotzi's tank, and this cause a distraction obviously. Shotzi leaves the ring, running after Asuka, only to realize that the referee has started his 10 count. She runs back but is just as late, as the referee hits the ten count right before she rolls back into the ring. Penelope mocks her, leaving the ring, still Primetime Bitch Champion....

What is this feud lol.

Tag Team Matchup
Dakota Kai and Tegan Nox Vs Sasha Banks & Bayley

Nox and Kai dominate actually into the match. Sasha soon comes back taking down and out Nox. Bayley with a belly to belly takedown. At the end of the match a super hugplex off the top rope and they want that title match against Harem so bad. Banks Statement for the win.

We go backstage where we hook up with the girls in The Harem. Piper and Martina are joking about how they sonn have beaten all the other tag teams on the roster. After tonight, all of them can join Alexa and take some days off....

Not all...

We then get a weird promo. We find ourselves in a city made out of white marble and gold. The streets are almost empty. No cars. No people. The camera pans and we see a woman sitting on a bench in a park. It's a turkmen woman. Her hair is tradionally braided, and she's wearing some sort of national dress. A tear comes to her eye. She's holding a picture of someone. She tears it apart and throws it on the ground, then gets up on her feet and leave. As the wind blows, the teared pieces are rumbled, so we can now see who it is... " Rowdy" Ronda Rousey.......We cut back to the arena.

What is going on.

Singles Matchup
Nia Jax Vs Kris Statlander

Jax can’t fall just because she lost the title and Kris does her usual weird alien comedy style but Jax isn’t happy. Jax with a huge splash. Over and over again. She goes to the top rope nailing a big splash but refuses to cover. She continues the assault as the referee then checks on Kos and says it’s over!. Wow Jax didn’t even win the match via pin!. Referee stoppage!. Jax storms off up the rampway pissed.

We get a Backstage segment with Becky Lynch and Charlotte Flair, where Becky tells Charlotte she should be more happy. After all, she won. Charlotte asks what the hell she's talking about, when Becky rubs her belly, telling Charlotte she's got better things to do than to fight an endless fight with Charlotte. After all, she's not allowed to compete for the title anyhow. Becky then congrats Charlotte, and as she is about to leave her, she hesitates, saying she almost forgot. She pulls out a couple of tickets from her backpocket. Plane tickets? Becky then gives them to Charlotte, telling her to have a nice trip. She better go, as the boss expect her to show up. Becky then leaves Charlotte, who's completely flabbergasted....We then cut to the arena for our main event of the evening.

What is going on!. So Becky might be pregnant. For a second I thought she was gonna lose her baby or some sort of angle like that. Wonder what will happen next. A way to keep her from wrestling I guess...

EAM Womens Tag Team Championships Matchup
Piper Niven & Session Moth Martina (c) Vs Kairi Sane & Io Shirai

Sane and Io with an elbow and moonsault for close 2 counts. Niven with a splash while Martina with a Jagerbomb. Io fights back and rolls up Niven...1....2...3...WHAT ITS OVER. NO SHE KICKS OUT. WOW THAT WAS CLOSE. Io fights back but gets taken out after a Niven Noose for the 3.

As the show is about to fade to black, we all of a sudden get some new footage. It's seems to be from a surveillance camera in a hotel room or something. Two people are present in the room. A woman are laying under the bedsheets. She seems to be naked, but we cannot see who it is. The man is sitting on a chair beside a table, not far away. He's looking out of the window, smoking a cigar and drinking what seems like whiskey. The woman turns over in the bed, and we can now see more of her. She's vaguely familiar somehow. Her fair blonde hair seems almost white on the black/white surveillance tape. She turns further. It's Leah Von Dutch! The man, still unknown to us stumps the cigar in the ashtray, then emptying his glass. He gets up on his feet, walking towards Leah in the bed. He walks towards the light. The clip ends......

Emil cheating on Mickie!?. Always interesting promos.

Episode #153 - Taped in New York/USA

As the show starts, we open with a promo from Khabib, who replies to Ken Shamrock's challenge. Khabib says that he's not a person who respect many others. But...he respect a good fighter, and he always crave to go a good match against a worthy opponent.... But Ken are not worthy..... Khabib have no respect for old men.... But, he accepts Shamrocks stupid little challenge, because it will be so good, hearing the noise from the audience, when he beats the living deadlights out of him! Ken Shamrock might be concidered a legend. But legends can be forgotten....We cut to the Pride vignette...

As we go to the arena and the ring, the commentators welcomes us to yet another episode of PRIDE. Then they informs us that the card for the PPV in Turkmenistan are almost finalized, as we now can add Shamrock Vs Khabib to the card. But, they can also inform that yet another match has been added to the card:

We get a promotional video, highlighting the career of Samoa Joe. One of the pioneer's in EAM Promotions. And surely one of the greatest EAM Champions in history. He will now make a return on PPV, as he is one of a small party to be inducted into EAM Hall Of Fame this year. And when management asked him if he would go a match at a very special PPV, he accepted. But only if he could choose his opponent.... Guess we'll have to wait until then to see who he's picked. And what about that huh? Samoa Joe will be inducted into EAM Hall Of Fame!

Singles Matchup
Zack Gibson Vs Zack Zabre Jr.

As we get back from commercial break, we get WALTER in the ring together with his henchemen in Imperium. He cut's a promo on how he alone should get the rematch against Kross, and how Braun needs to be punished for his deeds. And if the EAM management won't do it. His boys will.... Music then cranks the arena speakers and Braun walks out on the stage. WALTER gestures for his boys to get out of the ring and take him and so they do. But only get knocked down by Braun, one by one. Braun then makes his way down the rampway towards the ring. WALTER is still standing in the ring as Braun enters. But before anything else happens, music once again cranks the arena speakers. And it's a theme song that the PRIDE fans better remember right now, as they are probably going to hear it quite often, as it belongs to the current, reigning, defending, PRIDE Champion; Killer Kross! He gets a good reaction as he walks out on the stage with the PRIDE title draped over his right shoulder. He tells WALTER and Braun it's not necessary to fight against each other to decide who should face him..... AS HE WILL TAKE ON BOTH OF THEM! AND HE WILL BE GIVING THEM ONE HELL OF A BEATING!

Singles Matchup
Ilja Dragunov Vs Jeff Cobb

We get a segment with Pride Tag Team Champions; Heavy Machinery, as they are about to board a plane to Turkmenistan. Otis carrying a pair of ski's, and Tucker asks what he's doing with them. Otis replies he's going on holiday, offcourse he's gotta have his ski's with him. Tucker then explains to Otis that Turkmenistan is a desert country. No skiin'g. Otis gets disappointed, but then he gets excited again, as he's excited about all the exotic food. Mmmmmm...roasted pork.....pulled pork....mmm.... Tucker once again explains that there is no pork meat in Turkmenistan, as they are a muslim country. Otis gets utterly disappointed and tells Tucker this will be a lousy vacation. Tucker tries to cheer him up, saying they should try and catc ha glimpse of James and Robert's faces when they learn that Turkmenistan is a dry country. Otis says; offcourse it's dry if it's desert. Tucker then explains that dry means, no alcohol. No beer. Otis once again gets disappointed, saying " Oh Man....." They then board the plane, the segment ends and we cut back to the arena.

Tag Team Matchup
Chocolate Thunder (Willie Mack & Rich Swann) Vs Kevin Owens & Sami Zayn

Owens and Zayn stay back in the ring and are cutting a promo, when they get interrupted. Music cranks the speakers, but nobody walks out on the stage. But wait, two men enters the ring coming from the audience Owens and Zayn does not see them before it's to late, and the get quite a beating. The commentators recognize them, and informs us that, that is PCO and Brody King! Two of Marty Scurll's guys from Villain Enterprises! But they are not signed with EAM. They are in ROH! What are they doing here?! Owens and Zayn fightd back, but in the end it ends with PCO and King throwing them both out of the ring. PCO then pics up the microphone that Owens was holding and introduce himself and Brody before telling everyone why they are here. Well.....it's all boiling up to a war. And as members of Villain Enterprises they have certain obligations. But, that's not it. They wouldn't have missed this for anything in the world! In the end, it will all come down to how loyal you are to the cause you are fighting for. We shall all see in the end, who was liars, and who told the truth. The endgame is near, and you all should think twice before you choose sides, because the future of this industry as we know it, depends on it! The show ends with these words. What is going on? What are PCO talking about?

Singles Matchup

Gibson works himself into a submission shoot. Some good signature/finishing moves throughout. Big bumps and drivers. At the end of the match Gibson Glow for the 3 count and win. Fans throw shoes at him as he leaves.

3 Way War should be awesome.

Singles Matchup
Ilja Dragunov Vs Jeff Cobb

Hard hitting strong style and big moves. Cobb really needs a win. Ilja with the kicks but at the end the Tour of the Islands, F-5000 for the needed win. Hmm I wonder if a Cage/Cobb team would work.

We get a segment with Pride Tag Team Champions; Heavy Machinery, as they are about to board a plane to Turkmenistan. Otis carrying a pair of ski's, and Tucker asks what he's doing with them.

Haha no booze or pork very clever. Should be a gimmick somehow. Should be a fun one. STEAKS AND SHAKES BABY. Maybe he could smuggle something in or on a pole match. Beer and Pork on a pole match.

Tag Team Matchup
Chocolate Thunder (Willie Mack & Rich Swann) Vs Kevin Owens & Sami Zayn

Awesome fast paced action. Lot of good moves, dives and jumps. Really showcasing themselves. Yakuza Kick and a Stunner for the 3 count and win. Thunder look good though. I feel like EAM is lacking some big teams. Lot of new unknown guys or older guys. Maybe put two big starts together like with Orton/Edge.

Owens and Zayn stay back in the ring and are cutting a promo, when they get interrupted. Music cranks the speakers, but nobody walks out on the stage. But wait, two men enters the ring coming from the audience Owens and Zayn does not see them before it's to late, and the get quite a beating.

What are PCO talking about?.

Wow big debut. I wonder if this means Bucks and Lee are with them or this is something different. Unless Scurll runs two stables at the same time with different people. Never been done before.

Extreme Rules Intergender Tag Team Matchup
Mike & Maria Kanellis Vs Tommy Dreamer & Beulah

Welcome everybody to another EAM PPV this time under unusual circumstances as we are live from Turkmenistan for the first and possibly the last ever time. We know the jist so let’s not waste anytime and get to the action!. Out come Mike and Maria who receive boos and look at this!. Maria is being carried to the ring on a bed of pillows and feathers like Cleopatra and Mike is the only one carrying her!. He’s struggling already. They enter the ring as out comes Dreamer and Beulah who aren’t the best anymore but are still looking pretty good. Maria dives off the bed and here we go!. Back and forth action in this one and Mike and Maria look pretty good. They take control for the first five minutes and of course this is extreme rules. Couple chair shots to Tommy while Maria beats down Beulah in the ring. This continues on for a while more. They soon fight back with a whip into the steel steps before Dreamer pulls out a table from under the ring but it’s a weird almost broken foreign table. No offence Turkmenistan. Dreamer sets it up but Mike fights back. Beulah and Maria in the ring with a cat fight before a Bronco Buster to Maria. Mike attacks Beulah in the ring disgusting like a coward. Mike just took out Beulah which sends Dreamer going after Mike. Maria tries to choke out Dreamer as they work together to beatdown Beulah and Dreamer putting them on the table set up outside the ring. Maria is gonna dive onto both of them!.

They kick Mike away just in time. They fight back eventually putting Mike on the table and Maria and Beulah back in the ring. Mike kicks him off before Dreamer nails a DDT on the floor!. Beulah goes under the ring and gets something as Dreamer throws Mike into the apron. THAT’S LIGHTER FLUID. BEULAH IS COVERING THE TABLE IN FLUID....NO WAY....SHE LIGHTS THE TABLE ON FIRE OMG. Beulah gets back in the ring with Maria as Mike and Tommy fight on the outside apron. DDT TO MIKE THROU....NO MARIA IS TRYING TO SAVE MIKE....WAIT BAAAM SHE PUSHES DREAMER AND MIKE OFF THE APRON BY ACCIDENT....BAAAAM DREAMER AND MIKE SENT THROUGH THE FLAMING TABLE BY MARIA. HOLY SHIT. EVEN MARIA IS SHOCKED BY THIS AND IS WORRIED AND SCARED FOR MIKE. WAIT FROM BEHIND. BAAAAM BEULAH WITH THE DREAMER DDT TO MARIA....1...2...3....IT’S OVER. Wow what a match and opening to this PPV a damn flaming table!. Dreamer manages to get back in the ring in pain from the fire as they celebrate their victory. Dreamer is getting too old for this shit. Maria actually cares about Mike outside the ring but soon starts slapping his burn marks angry with him!. He just can’t win. We cut away with Maria dragging a burnt Mike up the rampway.


We would like to take this time to offer condolences to the families of Hana, Shad and Supreme at this tough time. EAM’s thoughts are with all of their families at this difficult time.


Running Mate Championship Matchup
Orange Cassidy (c) Vs Velveteen Dream

Up next our first title match of the night. Both men come out getting different reactions. Cassidy much more popular than Dream. The bell rings and here we go. Dream is dressed more conservatively because of the rules of this country. Cassidy also seems much more serious and is having a normal match looking like he’s trying to get this match done and leave!. Of course Dream beat Cassidy in the Symphony of Destruction match recently so he wants revenge. Some comedy spots from both with no armed drags and ranas. Dream with a Dream Machine for a 2, Dream Experience and Cassidy with the Orange Crush. Much more serious match and less comedy. High flying and some signature moves. At the end of the match Dream looks for the elbow but Cassidy moves out the way. JUICE BUSTER....1....2....DREAM HOLDS ONTO IT, ROLLS THROUGH...DREAM MAC...NO CASSIDY ROLLS THROUGH. REVERSED RANA DRIVER....BAAAAM ORANGE CRUSH....1....2....3....DONE!. Cassidy retains and keeps his title wow and finally defeats Dream to close that chapter. He doesn’t celebrate with the fans as we cut away.

Singles Matchup
AJ Styles Vs Petey Williams

Up next an old TNA 2005 style match. The creator of the now infamous and used in every match Canadian Destroyer vs one of the all time greats AJ Styles. Back and forth action and both look good. Signature/finishing moves attempted. Styles with a Pele Kick and a future Hall of Famer wherever he goes. Styles with a Fosberry flop and a 450 splash. Petey nails a Canadian Destroyer out of nowhere.....1.....2....STYLES KICKS OUT. In the old days that would have been it but the move has been used so much it’s kicked out of very easily. Styles fights back with the forearm before going to the top rope....SPIRAL TAP....PETEY REVERSES IT....1....2....NO. Petey takes Aj to the corner looking for something. NO CANADIAN DESTROYER OFF THE TOP!?. STYLES REVERSES........BAAAAAM STYLES CLASH OFF THE TOP ROPE TO PETEY GOOD GOD....HE HOLDS ONTO IT....ANOTHER STYLES CLASH....1....2....3....COVER AND DONE!. Styles picks up the win but what a fun fast paced action filled packed match. After the match they shake each others hands and embrace while fans chant TNA as we cut away.


Tag Team Matchup
Extra Talented (Aaron Solow & Ricky Starks) Vs Aaron Stevens & The Question Mark

Lots of stuff and styles tonight. All promotions across the world coming together for this crisscross connection coalition. Up next an NWA style match. Aaron comes out cutting a promo on EAM and the country he’s in. Extra Talented come out getting the best reaction and here we go. Back and forth action with some slow wrestling and Aaron calling the match himself. Mark with an elbow and Bearhug. Starks with a twisting spinning leg lariat take down. More exchanges of action and this is good exposure for NWA Powerrr and there’s been rumors that in the future maybe NWA/EAM can work together. We already have the world title so might as well. Rumors of EAM buying WWE, TNA and ROH though next season so who knows what’s true. They try to unmask the Mark but just can’t. Solow tries to look for the finish but Aaron but he comes back with the neckbreaker for the 3 count and win!. Aaron does the cartwheel after the match and celebrates with Mark. Could have unmasked Mark but no point because we don’t know who it is and wouldn’t work if it was just a joke.

3-On-3 Special Intergender Tag Team Challenge
Chris Hero, Claudio Castagnoli & Sara Del Rey Vs Briscoe Brothers & ODB

Back and forth match from both teams. Lot of high flying, double team spots and action. Briscoes have been around for years. Cesaro looks the best in this match with the Big Swing, Alpanare Waterslide, Recoli Bomb, Cravate Suplex and a stomp. Sara takes down ODB. More continuous action before Briscoes nail the Doomsday Device and Jay Driller for a close 2. ODB smashes a bottle over the head of Sara taking her out this match. Cesaro with a Neutraliser to Mark and he’s looked great recently. Some high flying dives to the outside of the ring as we’re left with Jay and Cesaro back and forth in the middle of the ring. JAY DRILLER...CESARO REVERSES WITH A THROWN UP EURO UPPERCUT. HE PICKS HIM UP.....TILT A WHIRL ALPANARE WATERSLIDE....WOW.....1.....2.....3.....DONE!. They get the win in a fun match. Cesaro looked outstanding. After the match they celebrate but show respect to each other because it could be the last time they’re ever in the ring together.

Singles Matchup
Ruffneck Vs Dave Mastiff

Up next is a British Brawl and here we go already!. Back and forth before the bell even rings. Dave is more known than Ruffneck so it’s good exposure for him. Hard left and rights. This is what we imagine a Thor/Hall match would be like!. Ruffneck with a slam. The whole match is a hoss fight with big spots. Signature moves as well. Dave with a leg drop before up top!?. SUPERPLEX GOOD GOD THE RING ALMOST BROKE. RUFF WITH A NECKBREAKER...1....2...NO. Both men try to choke each other out now but reverse with turnbuckle charges. Dave with a big powerslam and splash for a 2. He puts him in the corner. BAAAM RUNNING CANNONBALL AND A SECOND. DAVE WITH A RUNNING SPLASH....1....2....3...AND JUST LIKE THAT IT’S OVER. Tough contest from both men. Dave celebrates his win as we cut away.


Triple Threat Matchup For The Pride Championship
Killer Kross (c) Vs WALTER Vs Braun Strowman

They come out getting mixed reactions from the crowd. Some boos and cheers. Signature/finishing moves throughout this one and it’s another hoss fight. Walter bomb and chops to both men. Back and forth double chops at the same time. Braun with a headbutt and football spear. Scarlett is at ringside cheering on Kross she even has a whip with her. Kross has been killing it lately especially with his finisher that everyone loves. Kross powerslams Walter and Braun at the same time!. Kross is picking them both up. What is he doing!?. BURNING HAMMER...GOOD GOD A DOUBLE BURNING HAMMER TO BOTH MEN THE STRENGTH....BRAUN SENT OUT OF THE RING AS KROSS COVERS....1....2....NO. Kross continues the beatdown looking for a German Suplex Bridge and nails it...1...2...BAAAAAAM WHAT THE HELL....A LADDER JUST GOT SENT INTO THE RING. GOOD GOD BRAUN JUST THROWS A LADDER OVER THE TOP ROPE INTO THE RING LANDING ON KROSS STOPPING THE COUNT. Must have gotten that from under the ring!. These men and a ladder Jesus!. Braun then beats down both men with the ladder before putting it on his head and spinning around knocking both down. Almost hits the referee but look at this.

Scarlett has climbed the top rope and jumps on top of the ladder while Braun is still spinning haha never seen this before!. Scarlett manages to reach inside raking Braun’s eyes stopping him. She then tries to choke him out as Kross spears the ladder into Braun!. Incredible team work. They kiss before Kross goes back to it...BIG BOOT FROM WALTER. He then sets up the ladder in the corner and lays Kross and Braun down next to each other. What the hell is he doing!?. Walter is climbing!. These men are not meant for ladder matches. Walter is standing on top of the ladder no...HE’S LOOKING FOR A HEADBUTT OFF THE TOP...NO....WAIT...BRAUN IS UP SHAKING THE IT. He climbs up with him looking for a superplex!?. Headbutts back and forth good god almighty. Kross comes from behind knocking Braun off the ladder but then climbs the same side as Walter. Walter climbs up the other side as Braun is back up looking for something. BRAUN WITH A POWERBOMB TO WALTER OFF THE LADDER TO THE MAT. He fires up and climbs again!.

Braun is looking incredible right now. Back and forth on top of this near 15 foot ladder in the corner. Headbutts now. Braun is looking better looking for the superplex but wait Kross turns it around. They’re both now on the same side banging each others heads off the top rung. Kross then smiles and gets an idea. What is he thinking. Kross climbs to the very top of the ladder with Braun. Superplex off the very top good god!. There’s no way...WAIT A MINUTE....NO......WAAAAAAAAAH.......BAAAAAM BRAAAAAINBUSTER BRAUNBUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUSTER......BRAINBUUUUUUSSSS SSTAAAAAAH HOLY FUCKING SHIT. OMG KILLER KROSS JUST NAILED A BRAINBUSTER ON TOP OF THE LADDER. INSTEAD OF THE TURNBUCKLE HE USED THE LADDER; ONE OF THR MOST INSANE AND DANGEROUS MOVES WE’VE EVER SEEN. Never seen that before. Braun might be dead. It literally dented the top of the ladder. Fans are going crazy as both men have fallen to the mat. Kross puts his arm across Braun....1....2...WALTER TRIES TO BREAK IT UP BUT SCARLETT GRABS HIS LEG....3 it’s over. Kross has won this match in an absolute war!. Fans are still shocked at that. Kross and Scarlett celebrate their victory as usual while Kross gives the belt to Scarlett as we cut away. Kross might be tougher than Walter/Braun and Lars!. Who can beat him!?.


Tag Team Matchup
The Bhangra Knights (Darrell Allen & RJ Singh) Vs Luke & PJ Hawx

Fans are still reeling from our previous match so let’s not waste any time and get to it!. Not the biggest or best match after what we just saw but still fun. Some comedy throughout with Knights looking good getting some good moves in. This feels more like a Pride mitch than a PPV match though. Not every match can be big. Knights with some arm drags and whips for a couple of minutes but Luke with a DDT and PJ with a Driver. Luke and PJ must be emotional to be together in this one. At the end of the match Luke and PJ get the win after a duel dive and must be a nice feeling. They celebrate the win after the match. Not good enough for Knights and who knows this might be the last time we see these teams in EAM.


Singles Matchup - Special Challenge
Samoa Joe Vs ?

Up next another big match contest but we don’t know who the challenger will be. Joe of course a legend and Hall of Famer and wants to win this one. It might be one of his last matches so who knows what will happen. Joe comes out getting a great reaction while we and he awaits the opponent. There’s no music at first and there’s been all kind of rumors going around names like AJ Styles, Necro Butcher, Chris Daniels even Jeff Jarrett!. The arena is silent but who will it be...DUH DUH DUH DUH LOOK IN MY HEART WHAT CAN YOU SEE....OMG IS IT!?. COULD IT BE...IT IS!. CM PUNK HAS ANSWERED THE CHALLENGE!. Think of the legendary feud between these two and the classic trilogy back in ROH it just makes perfect sense. Punk gets out getting a great reaction while Joe looks shocked but also happy and excited. The bell rings and here we go. Back and forth match from both men. Lot of signature/finishing/high flying moves from both men. A good 10 minutes of technical action and submissions measuring each other out. Joe with a back senton and move away after a missed dive. Running forearm through the ropes and a running face wash outside the ring into the barricade. Punk with a Pepsi Twist back in the ring before looking for a Pepsi Plunge off the top rope a move we haven’t seen him do in years....1.....2....NO. Hope the fans know how lucky they are getting this type of match. Punk with an Anaconda Lock but Joe turns it around into a powerbomb, Boston crab and STF...Punk manages to make the ropes. If this is Joe’s last match then what a way to go out.

Joe nails the Muscle Buster for a close 2 count as we are now almost 25 minutes into this match!. Joe looks for another Muscle Buster but Punk reverses into a Tornado DDT....1.....2....NO kick out. This has an old 2005 ROH style feel to it which we don’t get anymore. Punk picks Joe up.....GTS HE GOT IT...1....2....JOE KICKS OUT. Punk looks for another one...JOE REVERSES OUT OF IT. HE GOES BEHIND...COQUINA CLUTCH TO PUNK. THE CHICAGO MADE PUNK IS IN TROUBLE. HE GETS THE ROPES AT 35 MINUTES. I don’t think anyone thought this match would be this long!. Both men back and forth in the ring to cheers from the fans. Irish whip to the corner...HIGH KNEE....RUNNING BULLDOG...1....2...JOE KICKS OUT. Another Irish whip but reversed by Joe into a back body drop....PUNK REVERSES. BAAAAAAM ANOTHER GO TO SLEEP.....COVER....1.....2......NO JOE KICKS OUT. THIS IS CRAZY. PUNK WASTES NO TIME PICKING HIM UP LOOKING FOR A THIRD BUT JOE REVERSES OUT OF IT. ENQUIGIRI KICK TAKES PUNK DOWN AND OUT OF THE RING.....JOE WITH A DIVE THROUGH THE ROPES. He throws Punk into the ring, whips him to the ropes nailing a snap powerslam before sending him in the turnbuckle....BAAAM MUSCLE BUSTER AGAIN.....1.....2......NO AGAIN PUNK KICKS OUT THIS IS AMAZING. Fans chant this is awesome as we reach nearly 45 minutes into this match!. Nobody expected this. These two men have had what under 8 matches against each other? and in ring time of 5/6 hours!. Joe can’t believe it as he charges Punk in the corner with a face wash but Punk moves out the way in time. CM Punk has never defeated Samoa Joe remember that. Joe is stuck in the ropes....BAAAAAM GO TO SLEEP FOR A THIRD AND FINAL TIME.....1.....2.....3 IT’S OVER!. Wow what a match, 47:34. Fans are on their feet cheering for both men and of course the unwritten rule is that you lose your last match if this is it so just in case. Punk celebrates his victory finally defeating Joe as he extends the arm out of respect. We never got to see Joe vs Punk vs Styles vs Daniels but got to see Joe fight them all. Joe slaps away Punk’s hand and hugs him instead which sends the fans crazy. What a match and ending to this career and rivalry. They hug and celebrate together as we cut away. A side of Samoa Joe we’ve never seen before. Usually he’d attack him after the match but not this time.

Singles Matchup
David Finlay III Vs Brian Pillman Jr.

Back and forth action from both men. Gonna be very hard to touch the match we just saw. Fans are still speaking about it. Some good technical and submissions throughout. Both men could have great futures and would love to see them in EAM more. I actually think as a tag team would be a good idea. Pillman with the elbow drop while Finlay using his Dad’s style. Could you imagine a faction with David Finlay, Hornswoggle and Fit Finlay!. Pillman drop for a close 2 count. His Dad of course one of the greatest and most underrated. Shame he wasn’t in the Hall of Fame. It would be an awesome idea to have a Posthumous EAM Hall of Fame so we could get names like Pillman, Benoit and Guerrero in it who knows maybe one day. Both men pretty much cheered evenly. Some good attempts at finishers but not enough. Finlay with a backstabber for a close 2. Finlay continues to throw him around with close falls before Pillman fights back....BAAAM Sleeping Hero German Suplex....cover....1....2....3 it’s over!. Pillman gets the win in this. He celebrates the win after the match as we cut away.

Judo Matchup
Ronda Rousey Vs Nasiba Surkiýewa

Up next is a different kind of match. A Judo match between two Olympians. Nasiba is of course from this country so is the fan favorite. The bell rings and here we go. Lot of throw and take downs. Judo is very different from typical matches. Nasiba takes control actually getting the first round and point as we are in the second. Ronda dominates this time getting the point with the Angle Slam. Third round which is pretty even but sees Ronda looking better with a series of slams and throws. The time is almost up as Ronda nails one final Judo throw and that’s it she gets the win. Ronda gets two rounds. She wins the match but after is not happy with either her place in EAM or her match and attacks her once again but with wrestling moves. This is a side of Ronda we haven't seen in a long time. Maybe she shouldn’t be that nice girl anymore. She celebrates her win but mocks fans on the way out.

Ornate Prime Championship Matchup
Keith Lee (c) Vs Donovan Dijakovic

Up next one of the biggest matches and most anticipated of the night. This is for the Ornate Pride championship and nobody has been able to beat Lee yet so can Donovan?. Of course they have a very long feud that has gone over 5 different promotions now and Donovan is the first man to actually shock and startle Lee. Both men get solid reactions and always put on good matches. First ever time in EAM and here we go!. There’s been rumors that Lee wants to move up the card a little bit and is getting bored of the mid card. Donovan is brand new on the main roster and wants to make an impact and take it from Lee. BACK AND FORTH NON STOP ACTION. SIGNATURE/FINISHING/HIGH FLYING ACTION THROUGHOUT. BAAAM YAKUZA KICK TO LEE...1...NO. Lee with a big boot....1...NO. Left and rights from both men. Donovan with an axe kick. Spinning leg lariat...1...2...Lee kicks out. People have tried to start this way against Lee and it hasn’t worked. Lee rolls outside the ring....DONOVAN WITH A DOUBLE SPRING MOONSAULT TO THE OUTSIDE OF THE RING RIGHT ONTO LEE. Donovan throws Lee around the ring into the barricade before the crowd. Donovan gets into the ring and looks for a springboard....what is he doing...NO WAAAAH SPRINGBOARD SWANTON BOMB INTO THE CROWD ON LEE. GOOD GOD. Donovan just dived into the second row. Donovan looks for it again....BAAAAAAM SPEAR IN MID AIR. GOOD FUCKING GOD. LEE JUST SPEARED DONOVAN IN MID AIR AFTER A SPRINGBOARD DIVE FROM IN THE RING. THIS IS INSANE ALREADY. Lee throws Donovan back into the ringside area. Lee lays Donovan across the announce table and climbs the top rope but he could get DQ’d here so he has to be careful. This is not a no DQ match. Some fans are shocked at this action because they’ve never seen these two fight before. LEE WITH A TOP ROPE ELBOW THROUGH THE ANNOUNCE TABLE...DONOVAN MOVES OUT THE WAY IN TIME. This is crazy. Donovan throws Lee back into the ring. He’s looking for it...BAAAM SPIRIT BOMB TO LEE. Both of these men use the spirit bomb remember....1...2...Lee kicks out.

Fans chant this is awesome and really it just began. Donovan is dominating Lee right now. Donovan takes Lee to the top rope...superplex?...Lee fights it off...DONOVAN WITH HEADBUTTS. NO WAIT....WAAAAAAH FALCON ARROW OFF THE TOP TOPE....GOOD FUCKING GOD. THE RING ALMOST BROKE....COVER....1.....2....NO LEE KICKS OUT.

Donovan just kicked out of Lee’s finisher for the first time ever I believe. Lee goes to the top rope what is he doing now...NO WAAAAY....HE CAN’T DO THIS.....WAAAAAAH MOONSAULT TO DONOVAN. HOW THE HELL CAN A MAN THIS SIZE DO SOMETHING LIKE THAT....1....2...NO. DONOVAN KICKS OUT. Fans can’t believe it either!. Lee picks Donovan up looking for a powerbomb but is struggling...HE CHARGES THE ROPES....WAAAAAAAH LEE JUST POWERBOMBED DONOVAN OVER THE TOP ROPE TO THE OUTSIDE FLOOR. He could be dead!. Lee runs the ropes....BAAAAM LEE DIVES OVER THE TOP ROPE ONTO DONOVAN OUTSIDE. This is crazy. These men are big doing things like they’re cruserweights. Lee throws him in the ring and goes for the cover...1....2....DONOVAN KICKS OUT. Lee can’t believe it. It would be kind of cool to have at least one new champion especially since were in this country and may never return. So it would go in the records. Lee goes to the corner stomping his foot. Haha what is this. He’s almost mocking Shawn Michaels....SWEET CHIN MUSIC TO DONOVAN.....1....2....NO. Almost mocking and taking a shot at HBK and may even sending a message to him. Lee takes Donovan to the corner looking for something off the top rope.

LEE IS LOOKING FOR THE BBC OFF THE TOP ROPE. DONOVAN REVERSES. DONOVAN GOES BEHIND LEE LOOKING FOR SOMETHING......BAAAAAAAM DONOVAN NAILS THE TOP ROPE SITDOWN POWERBOMB....1......LEE KICKS OUT AT 1. WHAT THE HELL IS HAPPENING. DONOVAN HOLDS ONTO IT......A SPIRIT BOMB AGAIN....HE HOLDS ONTO IT. THESE MEN ARE PUTTING ON A 5***** clinic!. DONOVAN PICKS LEE UP ONE FINAL TIME...BAAAAAAM FEAST YOUR EYES....HIS FINISHER. HE NAILED IT. HE GOT IT.....COVER......1.......NO WAY.....2.....CAN HE......3......HE FUCKING DID IT. OH MY GOD WE HAVE A NEW CHAMPION. DONOVAN DIJAK IS CHAMPION. WHAT A MATCH. We thought Punk/Joe was gonna be match of the night but this may have topped it. Donovan becomes the man to stop Lee. At least for now. Donovan celebrates his victory holding the title high and we have made history as this might be the first ever time a title has changed hands in Turkmenistan. Donovan looks so happy after winning. Lee looked great and was a long awesome champion. Hopefully this means Lee can move on to higher pastures now and up the card. Lee and Donovan show respect to each other after the match but don’t hug or shake hands just a nod of the head. Donovan celebrates his victory as we cut away.



Singles Matchup
Mike Quackenbush Vs Austin Aries

More of a comedown after our last match but let’s not waste any time and get to the action. Lot of technical and submissions throughout. Both not as good as they used to be we believe this is a first ever time match. Aries with the reverse elbow and brainbuster. Quack with three Chikara Specials. Lot of back and forth continuous cut on of course it’s not gonna top our previous match. Rewind elbow coming in by Aries for a 2. Quack continues to lock him in strange positions. Quackendriver for a 2 count. It continues on before Aries finally nails a 450 splash for the 3 count and win.
