Revenge is profitable, gratitude is expensive.
-Edward Gibbon
Some seek revenge because of old feuds. Some seek revenge because of honor. Some seek revenge because of gold. But one thing binds them, and that is not the wants of revenge, but the wants of change.....
Brian Cage and ACH came to EAM, seemingly out of nowhere, quickly making names for themselves on seperate brands. Tonight, they clash for the first time inside the squared cirle in EAM, and it's no doubt that a massive weight is upon those two mens shoulders. The one who wins tonight will no doubt rocket his career further up in the EAM hiarchy, and soon be a major player in the company.
Young Bucks captured the EAM Tag Team titles from PAC & Kenny Omega, after their great run as Tag Team champions. Nick and Matt have been unbeaten ever since and tonight they defend their Tag Team Titles for the second time on PPV. But their opponents are new and unreliable.
The tension between the former Tag Team Champions have bursted a feud between the two, and tonight they settle the score one on one, but to make it all a bit more interesting, it's been declared that a spinning wheel will choose their destiny...
Making it big on seperate brands, tonights Crosspromotional Tag Team Matchup will show further who is the greatest competitor to the big gold. It's worth to give it all, even if you hate your opponent.....
Sami Callihan recaptured The CZW Title from Jeff Hardy, and have since been unstoppable. Until The Big Red Monster, Kane returned. First he made sure to crush his opponents for The #1 Contendership. And by doing so, making Jeff Hardy unable to ever get another CZW Title Shot. Tonight Sami stand before his biggest challenge yet, when he faces The Big Red Monster. A man who has beaten him in the past.
Super Dragon is no doubt one of the greatest competitors who ever stepped inside the EAM ring, but a man wants to crush Dragons legacy. A Man who was brought in by Shane McMahon, to wreak havoc upon EAM. Eddie Kingston proved to be Dragons equal winning their second contest. Tonight, they square off for the third time. Who will pull out, the longest straw?
It came as a shock when Shane McMahon suddenly came back after a half years absence, and claimed that he could challenge Emil A. for the chairmanship of EAM. And it was proven that an old mark in the official EAM testament said so. Shane beat Emil and became the new chairman of the board. But things didn't turn out how Shane expected. Emil started EAM's 4th brand, Pride. And, he booked himself in a lumberjack match against the chairman, with every guy on the EAM roster will be lumberjacks. It will not bring Emil A. back in the chairmans seat, but it will surely prove who the wrestlers support.
Daniel Bryan sent both Cm Punk and EAM Hall Of Famer AJ Styles out of EAM, beating them at their A-game. Tonight, they are brought back to stop Daniel Bryan and his Indy Invasion, and to seek revenge upon him, because he started it all. But if Daniel Bryan wins, he is granted a title match by the former chairman. Will Daniel Bryan be strong enough to beat them again?
It doesn't get much bigger than this when it comes to revenge. Bjørn Sem came from Norway, proclaiming that he was the next big powerhouse in EAM, and that nobody would be able to beat him up. Sheamus tried, but failed, and failed, and at last was sent to Norway, exchanging contracts with Sem. Steen and Cole feuded for months, and it all culminated with a last match ever between them, where Cole won. Sem went further on attacking Steen and they had a couple of matches. Tonight it all culminates, when Sheamus joins forces with Steen, and Cole teams up with Sem. It's a Tag Team Matchup for the ages, where everyone wants Revenge!
Kurt Angle... Without a doubt one of the greatest EAM Champions of all time. One of the cornerstones of EAM.
Dean Ambrose... Without a doubt one of the greatest signings in EAM history, being the longest reigning CZW Champion ever, and a two time KOTC Champion. Does Angle have what it take to take out this new star? Or does this mark the change in EAM that everyone has been talking about?
Card
Crosspromotional Matchup
Brian Cage Vs ACH
Here we go!. Another PPV in the books and we start with a cross brand match. Both undefeated but I don't think it's a good idea at all, PWG feeling here 10/10, 15:32. Both popular men and they have a lot of fans. Cage attacks a running ACH early on and just picks him up and throws him with a big scoop slam. ACH fights back, but Cage stops it again and begins working him down. Cage looks for a suplex as ACH gets out of it, runs the ropes and does the springboard Ace Crusher what a move 1..2..NO. Cage rolls outside as ACH fakes a dive, runs the ropes and hits the springboard splash over the top but BAAM A LARIAT FROM CAGE!. ACH looks dead outside the ring. Cage military presses ACH back into the ring. ACH looks for a pescado, but Cage moves and ACH hits the mat. ACH fights back with punches as Cage hits a big boot taking him outside. Wait...what is he doing...WAAAH CAGE FLIES OVER THE TOP ROPE WITH A DIVE!!!.
ACH MOVES JUST. Cage is a big guy and so athletic, ACH springboard moonsaults Cage outside the ring. ACH looks for another dive but Cage catches him in mid air as he comes over the top rope and CAGE THROWS ACH INTO THE TURNBUCKLE POST HARD. Cage brings him into the ring and Cage throws him again, this time in the corner. Fall-away slam from Cage and a standing moonsault for a 2. ACH fights back once again and looks for the springboard cutter he did earlier and Cage catches him!. Tombstone piledriver position but ACH reversed out of it and onto the shoulders. He looks for a rana even though Cage is too strong. POWERBOMB BY CAGE AND HE HOLDS ONTO IT AND LOOKS FOR A SECOND!. BAM ACH reverses the second powerbomb into a stone cold stunner...1...2..NO!. With amazing power he picks up Cage, dangles him on the ropes and goes to the top. He hits the Booker T, followed by the Dragonfly for only a 2.
Chainlink by Cage for a 2. Brian goes to the outside apron and ACH tries to Sunset Powerbomb Cage to the floor, but Cage is too strong and puts him on the outside apron. PELE KICK FROM ACH, but CAGE CATCHES HIM AND HITS THE WEAPON X ON THE APRON TAKING BOTH MEN TO THE FLOOR. They are both out and the ref is counting...5..6..Cage/ACH up and are fighting on the rampway..7...8...Cage locks in a headlock from behind and hits an overhead sleeper suplex on the entrance ramp!....9...10!. Cage realizes it's a count-out and ACH is slowly getting up. Cage helps ACH up as they go into the ring. Ref announces it's a double count-out/no-contest with boos from the crowd. They chant restart/continue but the ref says no. With other matches on the show as well if the match is over it's over. Cage and ACH have a stare down in the middle of the ring before shaking hands and pointing at each other. Both men remain undefeated. Fans become happier and cheer for both men who are tearing up their brand and will continue to do unless they're defeated.
(Sorry, but thought this was the best idea so both men remain undefeated. Was gonna have them pin each other but technically they would of lost. A strong match from them and they both looked even. They can remain undefeated on each of their brands now. Fans still got a treat regardless of the ending and maybe in the future they can fight again)
EAM Tag Team Title Matchup
Young Bucks (c) Vs Anthony Nese & Trent?
More of a comedown from the first match though still good. PWG feeling once again, 8/10 and 12:21. Even though this isn't the strongest tag title match it does have a lot of talent. Trent? and Chuck Taylor are team mates in PWG which would make more sense in EAM. Bucks I believe are face even though they should be heel unless they're already heel in EAM. Back and forth match from all men and it has the fast paced action and moves as expected. Signature/finishing moves attempts throughout and some double team action from all men. During the middle of the match they have the can you top this dives over the top rope from all four men. Close falls by Trent and Nese.
Stereo dropkicks by Bucks, Springboard splash by Nick and a moonsault from Matt. Bucks look for the end with the Early-Onset Alzheimer's as Trent kicks out. Trent takes out Nick as Matt takes out Trent. Nese looks for his finisher and he gets it...no way..1...2...NO Nick stops the count. Trent? with a hamspring into the DDT on Matt, Nese...1...2....NO. Nick superkicks Taylor out of the ring and it leaves Nese inside. More BAMg for Your Buck on Nese. Nick dives over the top on Trent? to make sure he's out as Matt goes to the top rope and hits the 450 splash on Nese for the 3 count!. Great showing by Bucks and pretty dominant as well. Clearing the ring and getting a clear cut win and proving they deserve the titles. Nese/Trent? looked alright as well but it wasn't enough.
Spin The Wheel, Make The Deal Matchup
Kenny Omega Vs PAC
Long time tag team partners are now opponents. This might be a one night only type deal. All kinds of matches on the wheel from Ambulance to Ladder, Table to Pole, Cage to TLC. Out come both men and they stand on the stage with the wheel spinning. Daniels speaks about the feud and matches on the wheel etc. He asks PAC to spin the wheel!!!..CUE CHEESY 80'S MUSIC AND LIGHTS AND SMOKE!....the wheel is slowing down and.....TABLES MATCH. Daniels says PAC has landed on a tables match and then says the way you win is by putting your opponent through a table. Omega gets on the mic and says that's not fair!!. Omega says that PAC got to spin and he didn't. Fans boo Omega as Daniels sighs, says fine and allows Omega a spin as well. Omega spins....CUE CHEESY 80'S MUSIC AND LIGHTS AND SMOKE!...the wheel slows down and....2 out of 3 Falls match!. Omega/PAC stare off and walk down to the ring as Daniels announces a 2 out of 3 Falls Tables Match. Fans got two matches in one.
PWG/Puro feeling, 16:56, 10/10 in this one as several tables are brought out towards the ring. PAC wants revenge for the betrayal. Lots of back and forth action from the both of them. High flying moves and signature/finishing attempts throughout. Some good wrestling throughout as well it has a Puro technical style. Omega/PAC keep stopping each others move since they know each other so well. Omega brings a table into the ring and places PAC on it. PAC stops it and fights back. Omega puts PAC onto the top rope and goes up with him. Superplex by Omega through the table!?. PAC just in time stops it and goes behind Omega while standing on the top rope. BAAAM REVERSE FRANKENSTEINER RANA RIGHT THROUGH THE TABLE!. Omega's head and body crushes through the table but PAC took some damage as well. PAC 1-0 and needs one more for the win.
PAC is hurt but goes outside the ring, picks up another one and places it near the entrance ramp side of the ring. PAC puts the edges of the table next to the outside apron though. PAC gets back in the ring and Omega has recovered and dropkicks PAC off the apron and he almost goes through the table. Omega fights PAC outside the ring and spears him into the guard rail over and over. Omega places PAC on the table outside the ring. Omega gets onto the outside apron and is looking for a double stomp, PAC has recovered and is fighting Omega and they're both teetering on the edge. PAC with a hard elbow knocks Omega down and onto the table. PAC looks at the fans and fans cheer him back. PAC gets in the ring. What is he doing?. No way...PAC runs the ropes looking for a dive on Omega through the table!. PAC SPRINGBOARD SENTON WAAAAAH OMEGA MOVES AND PAC CRASHES THROUGH THE TABLE HARD. Omega got off the table in time!. Everyone thinks it's 1-1 but the ref has said no and it doesn't count because PAC sent himself through the table.
Omega becomes enraged and kicks the broken table, walks around the ring and kicks the ringside area before tearing the announce table top off. He stops, smiles and gets an idea. Walks back over to PAC and throws him into the ring. He's looking happier even though he has zero table wins yet. PAC technically has gone through 2 tables if you count the one with Omega. Omega picks up PAC and moves him to the other side of the ring and on the outside apron. Omega licks his lips and has something up his sleeve. PAC though tries and fights back with an elbow and punches, as Omega stops it with a headbutt and gets on the outside apron with him. Omega gets behind PAC in a german suplex position and puts PAC into an electric chair while standing on the outside apron...what is he doing?. NO NO NO he drops the electric chair into the German suplex...BAAAAM CROYT'S WRATH OFF THE OUTSIDE APRON THROUGH THE ANNOUNCE TABLE!!. HOLY CRAP!. Omega did the electric chair/bridging german suplex from the apron and through the announcers table!. PAC's gotta be dead and Omega is hurt as well. Omega gets back up and shouts at the ref 'does that fucking count!?'. It's a table so it does and it's 1-1. PAC is just out.
Omega looks happy and walks around the ring. This is just a new sicker heel Omega we've never seen before. Omega thinks about what he's gonna do and slides a table into the ring. He smiles with an evil grin, looks at PAC and nods his head. Omega starts slowly walking up the rampway...where is he going?. PAC is finally waking up as Omega has gone backstage. Ref checks on PAC as fans cheer him on to get up. Omega is still gon...omg...Omega is back and with a....PANE OF GLASS?!. Omega walks the glass down to the ring and slides it in!. Omega/PAC aren't really violent wrestlers so this is shocking. Omega wants revenge for PAC putting him through glass a couple of weeks ago. Omega has destroyed PAC and wants to make it even worse. He's gonna kill him. Omega puts two chairs in the ring and sets the table up near the turnbuckle corner. He then puts the two chairs on top of the table?. OMG, OMEGA PLACES THE PANE OF GLASS ACROSS THE TWO CHAIRS!. He's made a table stacked with a pane of glass. PAC has crawled back near the ring and Omega pulls him up onto the outside apron.
Fans have become silent but soon wake up as PAC fights back!. Gives him a headbutt and hits a sunset flip but he's just too weak as Omega stops him and starts slapping and taunting PAC who's under him. Omega brings PAC towards the turnbuckle, sits him on top and faces him away. NO NO NO. HE'S LOOKING FOR ANOTHER CROYT'S WRATH BUT OFF THE TOP. THIS WILL SURELY KILL HIM. OMEGA'S STANDING ON TOP OF THE ROPES WITH PAC IN AN ELECTRIC CHAIR, HE DROPS HIM, GERMAN SUP..NO PAC WITH ELBOWS STOPPING HIM. Omega releases the hold and they fight on the top with headbutts and forearms!. Fans are going crazy and cheering for PAC!. Omega slaps him over and over but again PAC fights back and Omega is teetering...his foot standing one on top and one on the glass. PAC pushes and Omega lightly falls onto the pane of glass and is laid out. PAC regains control of himself, looks at the fans...RED FUCKING ARROW THROUGH OMEGA, GLASS AND THE TABLE!!!!. DING DING DING THAT'S IT!. PAC has won 2-1 in an absolute war. A corkscrew SSP ends the match. Wood and glass fly everywhere. PAC has gotten revenge for Omega's betrayal. PAC went through 4 tables technically and Omega through 2/3. Both men are cut up as PAC tries and stands up to celebrate with the fans as the camera cuts away.
(Maybe PAC is taken out on a stretcher and/or Omega could attack him but Omega would be more hurt than PAC so I guess that shouldn't happen. Both men looked good and I wanted Omega looking strong but PAC surviving and fighting back. PAC did look strong early on though. Don't think they should wrestle again though. Thought PAC should win because he gets revenge as a face on the heel. Unless Omega could've attacked him after the match but as I said Omega would be more hurt. This won't hurt Omega though because he can still be an angry gritty heel).
Crosspromotional Elimination Tag Team Matchup
Randy Orton & Chris Hero Vs Samurai Del Sol & Ricochet Vs Johnny Gargano & John Morrison
WWE/PWG/DGUSA feeling, 8/10, 12:34. Most of these guys don't like each other and don't want to team with each other. Seems more of a bonus match and I guess it's one fall for each team, instead of each wrestler being eliminated. All men around the outside of the ring and Morrison and Hero start. Lots of back and forth action, including double teams and signature/finishing moves attempts throughout the match. Could be three starting in the ring but guess it's better with two. High flying throughout, Morrison takes out Hero, Ricochet takes out Morrison, Orton RKO's Ricochet, Gargano takes out Orton and Sol ends up as the last man in the ring taking out Gargano. He runs the ropes and hits an in-spring out twisting springboard senton outside onto all men.
Morrison's gets back in the ring with Randy, Hero and Gargano are fighting outside the ring. Hero's Welcome on Gargano outside the ring!. Morrison looking for the Starship Pain on Orton in the ring as Orton moves. Ricochet/Sol are just on the outside apron and love watching this. Orton looks for a Punt on Morrison but he hits a roll up 1...2..no Orton kicks out. Morrison signals the end and looks for the in ring springboard kick...BAAAM ORTON CATCHES HIM IN MID AIR WITH AN RKO AS MORRISON TURNED AROUND!!! HOLY CRAP 1..2..3 Orton pins Morrison!. Gargano and Morrison are eliminated. Sol/Ricochet attack Orton/Hero and we have a brawl. Sol/Orton are the legal men, they fight back and forth. Ricochet throws Hero outside the ring. Fans love Ricochet/Sol much more than Orton/Hero it seems. SOL HITS THE DEL SOL DRIVER ON ORTON AND GOES TO THE TOP ROPE.
Hero's on the apron but Ricochet knocks him down. Ricochet joins Sol on the top rope. RICOCHET WITH A 630 TO ORTON. Ricochet quickly jumps up from the 630, runs towards the ropes and just throws himself over the top onto Hero outside BAAAM HERO CONNECTS WITH A SPINNING ELBOW TO THE FACE AS RICOCHET IS IN MID AIR!!!. RICOCHET IS OUT FLAT!!!. While this is happening, Sol hits Orton with a 450 splash 1...2...3 NO WAY!?. IT'S OVER!. What a huge win!. One of the biggest of his career. Sol has been on fire lately. Orton/Hero have been eliminated and Sol/Ricochet win the brand war for the A-Show. Sol celebrates, helps Ricochet up from outside the ring and they celebrate. Maybe after the match Hero could come in the ring and confront Orton for losing and lay him out or Orton could RKO Hero. Don't think they're gonna feud though so it might not be needed.
(Ricochet/Sol have been strong and barely lost recently. The others have been weak and losing matches. Still made Hero/Orton look ok though and everyone was good throughout. Best decision to let A-Show win in my opinion and so Sol can remain untouched, solid and it will help even more with a win over Orton.)
CZW Title Matchup
Sami Callihan (c) Vs Kane
Not the strongest title match and don't think Kane should have a title match either. I think the title name is a little outdated now. Maybe PWG would be a little better but I think it should be a name which culminates all Indy companies, WrestleCon or something. Normal rules in this one, I suppose it could have more relaxed rules because of the title but we don't need a gimmick filled show. Back and forth match from the both of them, signature/finishing move attempted from both men throughout out contest. WWE feeling in this one, 7/10, 10:23. Kane with a side slam, big boot and dropkick. Sami hits a side russian, boing splash for a 2. Kane with a chokeslam out of nowhere halfway through the match for a close 2. Kane looks for a Tombstone but Sami reverses out of it and into the Stretch Muffler!. Kane almost taps but turns him around. Sami struggles with the size of Kane in the match also.
Sami hits a Bicycle Kick and a lariat which knock Kane down for a 2. Kane up top looks for the clothesline and Sami with incredible strength, catches him and hits a samoan drop. Sami fires up and looks for the Headlock Driver as Kane grabs his throat, Sami tries to fight out of it and does BAM Headlock Driver 1...2...NO Kane kicks out somehow and can't believe it. Think both of these men aren't that liked by the crowd heel/face wise. Sami goes to the top rope and hits a double axe handle and Kane doesn't go down, he goes back up, jumps again and hits a second axe handle, tries for a third but this time Kane catches him coming off the top...CHOKESLAM NO SAMI REVERSES IT INTO THE HEADLOCK DRIVER!...1...2...3!. Sami picks up the win and keeps the title. Kane can't get out of two of them. Sami celebrates his win. Kane could maybe chokeslam him after the match for revenge.
Rubber Matchup
Super Dragon Vs Eddie Kingston
The final match between the two of them 8.5/10, 12:44 PWG/CZW feeling. Back and forth match between the both of them. As usual some hard hitting action throughout, signature/finishing moves also attempted throughout. Maybe the best match of the three or not but it's what you expect from the both of them. Badunkadunk, discus lariat, several dragon and suplexes. Dragon has looked the strongest throughout this feud but is getting older and Kingston is more of a newer guy. Violence Party and a Ganso bomb for a 2 count but Kingston kicks out. Royal Flush for a 2 count by Eddie. This is more of a technical wrestling match than the previous two and it's a nice change. Some great submission and reversals throughout including an inverted cloverleaf by Eddie which almost causes Dragon to tap but he turns it around into the Curb Stomp for a close 2.
Barry White Driver for a very close 2. Kingston with a Sliding D and a german bridge for a close 2. Kingston looking for the American D as Dragon reverses is BAAAM PHYCHO DRIVER 1..2..NO. Kingston somehow kicks out. Dragon signals the definitive end and looks for another phycho driver.....Kingston gets off the shoulders...BAAACKFIST TO THE FUTURE!!! 1...2....NO Dragon kicks out!. Kingston can't believe it, moves the elbow pad down and looks to give Dragon the D. DRAGON DUCTS UNDER...PSYCHO DRIVER NUMBER 2!!!...1...2...KINGSTON KICKS OUT. Dragon wastes no time, picks up Kingston and looks for the fourth version of the Psycho Driver...Kingston again gets off the shoulders, lands behind him...BAAM AMERICAN D TO THE BACK OF THE HEAD. DRAGON'S STILL STANDING, TURNS AROUND AND STARES AT KINGSTON. They grind foreheads and start headbutting each other!.
One at a time and they're challenging each other. Kingston is bloody and we don't know if Dragon is. He could be choking on his own blood. Kingston is smiling and grabs the back of Dragon's head and pulls him in BAM BAM BAM OVER AND OVER HEADBUTTS. Fans are going crazy!!. Regardless who wins both men have proved they're insanely tough and equal. KINGSTON WITH SLAPS, DRAGON WITH ELBOWS, KINGSTON WITH FOREARMS, DRAGON WITH A BACKSLAP...IT ONLY FIRES UP KINGSTON!!. BACKFIST TO THE FUTURE BY KINGSTON AND AN AMERICAN D TO THE BACK OF THE HEAD....DRAGON COLLAPSES TO THE MAT..1..2..3. IT'S OVER!. Kingston picks up the win and the feud. Kingston celebrates with blood on his head. They could maybe have another stare-down after the match, shake hands or give each other another headbutt just for fun.
(Decided to make it more technical than just a brawl and save that for the end. Thought about giving Dragon the win but think he's getting a little older now and it would mean more if Kingston won and Dragon put him over. Both men looked very equal and tough throughout the feud and Dragon looked a little more solid, so I thought it was best for Kingston to win and a passing of the torch like moment as well.)
Lumberjack Matchup
The Whole EAM Roster Will Be Lumberjacks
Emil A. Vs Shane McMahon
Hmm interesting match. Guess it's sort of 50/50 wrestlers on each side but no idea who are on who's side. Too many lumberjacks I think and should've been 2 from each brand maybe 7/10, 9:31. Not the best match obviously, Emil needs a win after losing and Shane is against the odds with the entire roster around the ring. Can't name them because I don't know who is on who's side and who is face/heel. Guess the heels are on Shane's and face's on Emil's. Like a normal match really and Emil looks better in the ring than he did last time. Shane tries to get out of the ring but gets stopped. Emil's tries and gets out and people allow him as he's more liked than Shane. Both men get close falls and this is still a normal rules match, so no weapons or outside interference. Shane looks for the elbow but Emil pushes him off and into the people outside. Emil goes to the top rope and hits a dive!!.
COME ON NOW SHANE'S SIDE IS BEATING UP EMIL AND PROTECTING SHANE. HERE COME EMIL'S SIDE. IT'S A BRAWL OUTSIDE THE RING. Brian Cage and ACH outside the ring and friends/respect each other after earlier and both get on a top rope!. CAGE AND ACH WITH DIVES ONTO EVERYONE. Emil rolls Shane back into the ring as ACH/Cage stops Shane's side from interfering anymore, they're on Emil's side...1...2...SHANE KICKS OUT. Still a brawl outside the ring and wait...the ref just got pulled out. NO NO BRODIE LEE AND QUACKENBUSH HAVE HIT THE RING. People are distracted outside and BAAAM HARPER LARIAT ON EMIL. WILLIE MACK MAKES THE SAVE FOR EMIL AND THROWS QUACK OUTSIDE...MACK WITH A DIVE OVER THE TOP ROPE ONTO EVERYONE. Harper throws the ref back into the ring. Shane covers 1...2....NO EMIL KICKS OUT. Shane shouts at Harper and tells him why didn't you attack him more!. Still a brawl with men outside the ring as Shane tells Harper to piss off and he walks off up the ramp.
Shane stands on the bottom rope and taunts Harper some more, then tells his guys to continue beating Emil's guys up. WAIT...EMIL ROLLS UP SHANE 1..2...3 WAAAH!! HE GOT IT!. Emil gets the win with a smart move!. Shane can't believe it and begins to attack Emil more. HERE WE GO!!! MACK/ACH/CAGE AND MORE ENTER THE RING WITH QUACK/SHANE'S GUYS AS WELL!. IT'S A BLOODY WAR. People are getting thrown everywhere and fans love it. Shane's guys retreat up the ramp and CAGE THROWS A WILLING ACH ONTO THEM. UH OH....Shane is the last man in the ring with ACH/Mack/Cage and more. Shane stands up and looks scared, Cage points at Shane to turn around...he slowly does and BAAAM EMIL NAILS SHANE OVER THE HEAD WITH A CHAIR!. Shane is out cold but Emil's not done, he places the chair on Shane's face and goes to the top rope.....MOCKS SHANE AND HITS THE ELBOW!!. Emil gets some revenge for the brutal beating last month. Cage lifts Emil on his shoulders and they celebrate with ACH/Mack/etc and the fans.
(Hard one to do with so many people but I tried to show some people on each side and some faces/heels. Emil the best winner and it wouldn't have made much sense if Shane won again, so its evened out some more and get some revenge. Maybe teased a Harper face turn down the line and I didn't want to do any big screw-job or turn just in case you have plans for certain people and I don't really know who are face and heel. Guess the Pride guys could've been involved and would be on Emil's side.)
2-On-1 Handicap Matchup
If Bryan Wins, He Gets A Title Match
If Punk & Styles Wins, They Are Re-instated
CM Punk & AJ Styles Vs Daniel Bryan
Big match here no doubt and a hard match for Daniel in this one. Lots of high flying/signature/finishing moves throughout the match from all men 8/10, 11:54 WWE feeling also. Still a big fan of Daniel but not really Punk or AJ anymore to be honest. AJ/Punk have history in EAM and it's not good between them and that shows during this one. Daniel is a heel here but fans like him and are cheering for him to be a face and he does want to turn. Pretty normal match with AJ/Punk putting aside differences so they can get back in EAM. If Daniel wins he gets that important title match. Hard and cruel stipulation, Punk with a GTS and Daniel somehow kicks out. AJ looks for the Styles Clash but Daniel reverses it into a No Lock. Punk breaks it up and AJ/Punk go back to the double team.
Nearing the end of the match as AJ misses a spiral tap and Daniel looks around and realizes he has no partner he can tag and AJ tags in Punk. This 2 on 1 assault is really helping them and it's tough for Daniel. Punk now with a springboard but Daniel reverses it into the No Lock!!. AJ hits a springboard but Daniel moves and AJ hits Punk!!!. AJ charges Daniel, Daniel throws AJ outside. PUNK ROLL UP 1...2...NO Daniel gets out of it and kicks Punk in the head. Daniel signals the end and looks for the knee....Punk stands up but AJ tags Punk's back...springboard elbow by AJ on Daniel 1..2...NO. AJ signals the end...Styles Clash 1...2...DANIEL AGAIN KICKS OUT. AJ goes to the top rope but wait a minute...Punk pulls AJ down and starts shouting at him and is annoyed that AJ tagged himself in.
Punk tags himself back in by slapping AJ across the face. Punk gets back in, AJ out and says 'this is how you do it kid'. Punk turns around BAAAM THE KNEE+ BY DANIEL, DANIEL GOT UP. THEY GAVE HIM TOO MUCH TIME TO RECOVER. DANIEL COVER 1..AJ ISN'T LOOKING IN THE RING..2..HE REALIZES AND QUICKLY JUMPS IN 3!!!. IT'S OVER!. Daniel wins, rolls out the ring and celebrates. The problems between AJ and Punk just weren't enough to keep them as a team. Daniel gets the win, title shot and AJ/Punk remain gone. Daniel does the Yesses on the entrance ramp. AJ looks down at Punk in utter disbelief and shock, he also has a smirk on his face that he was the one that got pinned. AJ helps up Punk, he explains but both men push and then slap each other. AJ lays out Punk with a Styles Clash before leaving through the crowd and backdoor (or Punk could GTS AJ and do the same thing).
(Used the problems with Punk/AJ to help Daniel's win. Couldn't let Daniel lose and don't think Punk/AJ should be in EAM anymore. They've done it all really and are more of the older generation of Indie wrestlers. Daniel gets a title match and fights with being a heel but wanting to be a face. Could've give Punk/AJ the win but not really sure what they'd do anyway apart from the same things. Punk/AJ got a lot of dominance in and so everyone looked good.)
Tag Team Matchup
Bjørn Sem & Adam Cole Vs Kevin Steen & Sheamus
Maybe not the strongest penultimate PPV match but they've had some history. Steen wants revenge for Sem's beat downs and this might be the final match. Nobody really wants to be teaming with each other but they must PWG feeling, 13:12, 8/10. Lot of double teaming moves throughout, signature/finishing moves attempted by all men. Back and forth and they all look pretty strong. Referee has a hard time keeping them separated and following the rules. Sem/Sheamus fight on the outside and Cole hits a dive off the rope onto them. Steen says screw it, joins in and hits a diving senton taking out everyone. He picks Cole up and just throws him into the audience!. Sem spinebusters Sheamus into the turnbuckle post. Sem shows incredible strength by military pressing Steen into the ring. Sem pins Steen for a 2 and continues the beating.
A while later, Sheamus hits a running forearm on Cole, sideslam and a chokebreaker for a 2. Looks for the end and hits the Brogue Kick as Cole ducts under out the way, Corona Crash 1..2...NO!. Cole hits a superkick and a shining wizard for a 2 also. The fight continues between the two and Sheamus hits the hard chops on Cole. Sheamus tags in Steen who hits a running senton for a 2. Steen hits a sidewinder and saito suplex in the corner, follows it up with a running cannonball. Steen signals for his finisher as Cole superkicks him right in the face!. Steen fires up, slaps Cole and locks in the Packaged Piledriver...Cole somehow get out of it and tags in Sem. OOH MMMY STEEN AND SEM HAVE A STANDOFF AND EXCHANGE SHOTS. Steen runs the ropes but Sem hits a chokebomb 1..2...Steen just kicks out. Sem begins to work over Steen and then pushes Sheamus off the outside. Sem goes over to Cole and what is he doing?. Sem picks up Cole and he doesn't want to, like it's nothing and military presses his own partner in the sky and throws him outside onto Sheamus!.
Sem signals the end with the powerbomb and Steen fights back, Cole gets in the ring and eggs him on to do it...POWERBOMB by Sem and now Sheamus is back in the ring and clotheslines Cole to the outside. STEEN REVERSES THE POWERBOMB, TURNS IT OVER AND BAAAM PACKAGED PILEDRIVER AND ROLLS THROUGH WITH IT SO SEM'S STANDING UP AFTER AND A BROGUE KICK FROM SHEAMUS!!. Steen could pin him but wants to inflict more damage, goes to the top rope and fans are going wild. Steen looking for the swanton to finally end it....wait...Cole's back up and gets on the top rope, jumps...BAAAAM BROGUE KICK FROM SHEAMUS TO COLE IN MID AIR!!!. SWANTON BOMB FROM STEEN COVER 1..2..3 IT'S OVER!!!. Finally revenge for Steen and Sheamus!. What an ending as Sheamus/Steen and fans celebrate the victory (Sem could maybe beat up Cole after). Is it finally over and the last time we see Sem?. Only time will tell.
(Sheamus/Steen had to finally win and get the ultimate revenge on both of them. Thought Sem should be pinned by Steen instead of Cole so he can look stronger because he's a champ and involved with other things. Think maybe Sem/Sheamus should go away now because it wraps things up nicely here but have to wait and see what happens. All looked good and solid throughout.)
EAM Title Matchup
Kurt Angle (c) Vs Dean Ambrose
The main event of the evening is a big one. Both men are liked by the fans but Ambrose is more of a tweener and will always be because of his style. Angle's held the title for quite a while and Ambrose wants it. Ambrose and Angle also have to think about Daniel Bryan, who won a title match earlier tonight 10/10, 22:45, WWE/TNA feeling in this one also. Lot of good technical/back and forth action, some signature/finishing moves throughout the match. Ambrose hits for a side russian and an elbow for a 2. Belly to belly by Angle, scoop slam and moonsault attempt which misses as Ambrose moves out the way. German suplex by Ambrose as an insult and a running leg drop. Ambrose looks for Dirty Deeds early on but it's reversed into a back drop driver. Very evenly matched throughout the whole match. Ambrose throws Angle outside and hits a dive through the second rope. Ambrose looks for another but this time Angle catches him and hits a belly to belly on the floor.
Angle gets back in and waits for a count out but Ambrose gets in at 5. Two germans and he pulls down the straps for an Ankle Lock. Ambrose reverses the Ankle Lock and kicks Angle aside. Next few minutes are Ambrose/Angle working each other down as Ambrose then hits a running bulldog. Ambrose goes to the corner and looks for Regal's Knee Trembler but Angle moves and locks in the Ankle Lock. Ambrose is in trouble and trying to fight it off and eventually gets to the moves. Angle works over Ambrose's leg for the next couple of minutes and locks in another Ankle Lock and this time he lays down. Ambrose somehow turns it over for a pin of 2. Angle pulls down the straps and looks for an Angle Slam but Ambrose lands behind Angle and BAAAM DIRTY DEEDS HEADLOCK DRIVER 1...2..NO Angle just kicks out and Ambrose changes the momentum of the match. He begins to fight back and works on Angle's leg. Ambrose locks in a figure four!. He's been doing that recently and Angle is now in trouble and tries to find the ropes but Ambrose pulls him back.....Angle's about to tap...Angle somehow reverses the pressure on Ambrose...now he reverses it again and Ambrose taunts Angle and insults him. Ambrose turns the figure four into a regal stretch!. Angle just reaches the ropes but the damage has been done.
Ambrose remains in control for the next couple of minutes and looks for the jawbreaker lariat and Angle fights back and hits 3 germans!. Both men are down in the ring and Angle looks to go to the rope rope. MOONSAULT BY ANGLE HITS 1...2...NO!. Angle is in pain but stands up and looks for the Angle Slam and hits it. Wow just like that 1..2...no Ambrose somehow again survives!. Angle puts the straps up, takes them down again and looks for another Ankle Lock and Ambrose is screaming in pain. Ambrose gets onto the outside apron though and now it's an awkward in/out ring ankle lock. Ambrose looking for a suplex to the outside but Angle's body is facing the other way. Ambrose uses his brain and grabs hold of Angle's arm and places it across his neck!. Crossface chickenwing, this is crazy!. Ambrose/Angle are in a weird ankle lock/crossface chickenwing combo in the ropes and the ref finally breaks it up. Angle looks for a german suplex on the outside apron but elbows from Ambrose stops that. Ambrose gets back in the ring and hits a suplex bringing Angle back in. Ambrose fires up but so does Angle as well!. They run at each other with shoulder blocks but neither man budge, they try again but no man moves. Third times a charm but Ambrose feints it, goes down in the ropes and BAAAAM JAWBREAKER LARIATTOOO 1...2.....NO Angle kicks out. What a smart move from Ambrose he's really on the ball tonight.
Ambrose picks up Angle who reverses...ANGLE SLAM NO, AMBROSE REVERES AND HITS THE DIRTY DEEDS 1...2...ANGLE KICKS OUT JUST. Ambrose starts to lose his mind and looks completely insane. He waits for Angle to get back up and JAWBREAKER LARIATOONOOOOO ANGLE DUCTS OUT THE WAY ANGLE SLAM ON AMBROSE 1...2...THRE...NO Ambrose somehow kicks out. Angle is even shocked and both men are hurt. This is for the World Title, nobody's gonna stop. Angle looks for and locks in the Ankle Lock yet again and it looks like it's the end for Ambrose...he's trying and failing to reach the ropes....Ambrose then tries and climbs the turnbuckle and it works as he dangles over the top rope and Angle is forced to let go. Oh wait....Angle's in a german suplex position....Ambrose with elbows stops it and knocks Angle down. Ambrose turns around and tells Angle to bring it on but Angle plays possum and quickly gets back on the top rope.....WAAAAAH ANGLE SLAM FROM THE TOP ROPE!!!!!!!...1.....2.....AMBROSE PUSHES HIS WEIGHT UP AS ANGLE COVERS AND NOW IN A SMALL PACKAGE...3...!!!! IT'S OVER!. What happened!?. Both men are still out after that and the fans are confused. Angle begins to recover and looks on in confusion as to what just happened.
The ref, official and announcer are having a debate outside the ring before we hear the result. 'The referee has declared that Dean Ambrose reversed the pinfall into a small package and Kurt Angle's shoulders were on the mat'. Some fans boo and are shocked at what's happening. 'However, Dean Ambrose's shoulders were also on the mat. The referee has declared that both men's shoulders were on the mat at the same time and therefore, this match is a draw and STILL EAM WORLD CHAMPION KURT ANGLE'. WOW what a shocker!. Both men's shoulders were on the mat so the ref had no choice. The match is a draw but Angle keeps the title. Angle looks a little pissed but is happy he kept the belt. Some fans boo at the result but still show praise because they witnessed a solid match and it was still a clean ending. Angle celebrates with his title...but wait....Daniel Bryan's music has hit. Daniel Bryan comes out on the ramp and stares down Angle. Daniel Bryan and Kurt Angle have a stare-down as Angle looks at his title. Angle vs Daniel will happen eventually. BAAAAM AMBROSE FROM BEHIND LAYS OUT ANGLE. The show ends as Ambrose is holding the title, looking down at Angle and looking at Daniel Bryan on the entrance way. Ambrose didn't technically lose so you can't blame him. Who knows what will happen in the future, we'll just have to wait and see. We fade to black.
(Picked Angle but wanted Ambrose to look good. Both looked solid and equal throughout and with that kind of ending it keeps Ambrose a winner. Didn't want to change the title on a PPV that isn't as big as others and Angle vs Daniel still might happen. Doesn't mean Angle vs Ambrose should have a rematch or a 3 way should happen because I guess it's Daniel's shot next but maybe just keep Ambrose involved with Daniel/Angle and then he eventually gets a rematch because it was a draw and he deserves it. With the Daniel/Ambrose ending the fans would be happier and they still saw a good match so it isn't a screwy ending. Could've Ambrose/Angle both standing up and Daniel with all men looking at each other but didn't want to tease a three way and it's better if Ambrose attacks Angle after so it's saying Angle has the belt and Angle/Daniel is next but Ambrose is still here and involved.)
