SEGMENT
After last week, Alex Shelley was far from cordial with Bryan Danielson, who attacked him during the TOUGHEST WARRIOR segment, before the two did battle in an eight man tag team match. Shelley's team would come out on top of that, thanks to Tyler Black taking out Danielson with a Flying Knee to the face.
Paul Heyman would introduce the segment this time, and with Shelley and Danielson were two men this evening. Shelley would introduce his two wrestlers, two Ohio natives by the name of Dustin Rayz and Eric Ryan, two men of somewhat smaller size, but both men had a certain sinister air about them. Danielson would then introduce his team for the evening, two New Jersey natives by the name of Eric Corvis and Joe Gacy. Gacy is a big hoss, who looked ready to rip into someone, while Corvis looked very confident and was reading out of a book throughout the segment, ignoring most of what was going on and only glancing up when he heard his name. The title on front of the book said, "Textbook of Wrestling", which was written in marker on a piece of paper taped to a red leather bound book.
The person in this match to be pinned or submitted would be eliminated from the tournament.
As the bell sounded, Corvis would use the book to smack Rayz over the head, while Gacy bulled Ryan into the corner, and this match was on!

TAG TEAM MATCH
Dustin Rayz & Eric Ryan vs. Eric Corvis & Joe Gacy
Corvis and Gacy would control the early on after that ambush attack, which Team Shelley should really just expect from now on after two weeks of it, but the Ohio natives showed a lot of determination to make a comeback. Rayz and Ryan were quick and looked very crisp, while Corvis liked to keep things grounded if possible, using many simple holds and then taunting his opponents, before really unleashing his big fun maneuvers. Corvis was able to pull out some very interesting moves, such as a Leg Hook Snapmare Driver and an Rolling Inverted Neckbreaker, which is set up kind of like Shelley's ShellShock but then he jumps and takes them down the other way. Wild stuff. Gacy is a wrestler in the vain of other big, strong style types, and does good with his chops, lariats, suplexes, etc. Unfortunately for them, it was not enough to keep down Team Shelley, and this week, the win went to them, as Gacy was taken out with a Double Beach Break, which had both men grab a leg and then sit-out, driving him down head first with a Back to Belly Driver. That devastating move was enough to take out Gacy, and he's going home to Jersey tonight.
Danielson was upset, obviously, and came in and attacked both Ryan and Rayz with his World Junior Heavyweight title belt. Shelley would come in and lay into him with some fists, but Corvis would chop block him and hold him down. Danielson would attempt to smash Shelley with the belt, but in came TYLER BLACK! Black springboarded in again, and again caught Danielson with that Flying Knee to the face! Corvis would toss away Shelley and go after Black, but Black ducked under his clothesline attempt and hooked him... Paroxysm!
The fans are going crazy as Black helps up Shelley, and Danielson saunters off, not wanting anymore of a beating than that.
Paul Heyman would step away from the announcer's table and grab a microphone.
"Well, Tyler, since you're out here and all, I figure now is as good a time as any to announce the main event for the evening. You see, all the way back at Sacrifice, you won your No Limits title in a little four-way match, where you simultaneously lost your Television title. Tonight, you get your rematch for your Television title... and Homicide gets his rematch for the No Limits title... in a match very similar to the match that took place at Sacrifice. You see, tonight, it'll a four-way dance... no disqualifications... if a champion is pinned, they lose their title... and it will also involve Chris Sabin... and Delirious. I wish you the best of luck."
The fans are give a huge pop, obviously approving of this big announcement, and Black is just nodding his head, realizing he now has a tough night ahead of him.

SEGMENT
William Regal enters the ring and asks for a microphone. He then asks for Chris Hero to come to the ring, and the fans cheer as Hero obliges the wily Brit. Regal says that though they've had their ups and downs, he feels they've been able to bury the hatchet, and tonight, Regal says he'd like to strong petition the powers that be here in Ring Warriors to let Chris Hero have the next shot at the Ring Warriors title!
This brings out Mick Foley, who gets a nice cheap pop as he says hello to Albany!
Foley goes on to say that while Hero has looked pretty good, he's also had his shot in the past, and lost in the tournament to crown the first champion. Boos from the crowd echo out, as Hero takes the microphone and says it's about time he rectifies that, and gets another shot at what should be his! This gets a cheer, but Mick Foley rebuts.
Foley says he's been more impressed with another man lately, and he thinks he should be the man to get the next shot at the belt. This man has come into Ring Warriors with a huge impact, and he's laid to waste everyone who's stepped in front of him. He says he knows how to settle this, though. He says tonight...
It's going to be Chris Hero... taking on Brodie Lee!
Hero looks game to this, as the fans give out a nice little pop. Not the most Earth shattering announcement, but it should be a solid match. Lee has been a maniacal and dominant force, so this should prove to be interesting.

FOUR WAY MATCH
Alissa Flash vs. Angelina Love vs. Cherry Bomb vs. Rain
Alissa Flash wins the contest after pinning Love with an O'Connor Roll in what was a very chaotic and frantic showing.

SEGMENT
Chris Dickinson can be seen walking on a side walk, wearing a sleeveless shirt. He says his shots at the World Heavyweight title are apparently behind him as long as Kyle Matthews holds the belt, and he says that's fine. He says whether or not the title is on the line, it doesn't matter:
He will be getting another shot at beating the living Hell out of Kyle Matthews, and next time, there won't be no fuckin' time limit to save that piece of shit!
As for Matthews' title reign, well, he's got his little cult behind him, sure... but they are, what, five or six guys? Dickinson says he's made a mockery of that belt, and that affects each and every one of the boys in every locker room in this business... every suit in the offices, crunching numbers, looking at pie charts and graphs and all of that shit... they all want Matthews out. Guys like Chris Dickinson, guys who want to just beat the shit out of that smarmy prick, they ain't the only ones involved in this.
Matthews little group just embarrassed this alliance of world wide Pay-Per-View, slanting that title match, Jack Swagger kicking Chris fuckin' Dickinson in the face, Matthews going for that chair to try and steal it, all of that shit, it makes this sport look weak; it makes us look illegitimate. In this day and age, we can't afford to look illegitimate, and some little, 160 lbs. punk with a steel chair and a group of thugs holding that belt hostage does just that:
Makes this alliance look weak, and there is going to be an uprising.
So many men, they've stood idly by, they've sat on their hands, they didn't want to get involved, get marked, get their hands dirty and have it come back to bite them, but no more. No more!
Matthews, like I told you at the Bash and I'll say it again:
You're days are numbered.
"Save your breath for screaming, cause your prayers go unanswered next time we meet."

TAG TEAM MATCH
Alex Koslov & Shawn Daivari vs. Ricochet & Shiima Xion
Xion and Ricochet had battled last week in a great showing, which Ricochet won, but now they found themselves teaming and looked pretty good as a team here. Koslov and Daivari were just more ruthless, though, and would manage to capitalize on their opponent's mistakes. Koslov would shove Daivari out of the way of an oncoming flying attack by Xion, catching the "Filipino Flex Factory" with a Superkick in mid-air to take him down for the three count.

SEGMENT
Backstage, Drake Younger and Tony Nese are chatting when Younger, looking like a cocky bully with a shit eating grin, sees Stevie Richards passing by.
"Hey, woah, Stevie, Stevie! Hold up! What the fuck are you doin' here? Why don't you grab my bags and take 'em to the lockerroom, you old piece of shit! Ha!"
Richards laughs, scratching his chin, as Younger and Nese chuckle.
"Go on, boy! Grab 'em up!"
Richards looks up at Younger, getting right in his face, fire in his eyes now.
"How about I shove that bag right up your ass, you motherfucker!"
Younger and Richards are nose to nose, before coming to blows. Nese begins to get involved, and this goes on for a minute, both Younger and Nese getting him down. Into the scene comes EDDIE KINGSTON! Kingston has a chair, and he whacks and Younger and Nese in the back and to the head, sending them scurrying.
"Hey yo, fuck bags, tell ya what! You's twos, we're seein' you in the ring, tonight!"
Richards tries to get up and chase them, but Kingston has a firm grip on him and holds him down. Younger can be heard yelling back.
"YOU'RE DEAD, KINGSTON! FUCKIN' DEAD!"

FOUR WAY MATCH
Annie Social vs. Jennifer Blake vs.vs. MsChif vs. Portia Perez
MsChif would manage to overcome a more methodical, grueling contest than the first female four way of the night, enduring the wrath of her opponents and proving hers to be greater, as she pinned Social with a Code Green (Yoshi Tonic) at the climax of a big finisher finale by all.

TAG TEAM MATCH
Drake Younger & Tony Nese vs. Eddie Kingston & Stevie Richards
This was a physical and gritty brawl of a tag match. Younger would end up hitting Richards with a chair as he was reaching out to grab him, trying to bring the "Psycho Shooter" back in to finish him after kicking him to the the outside. The referee missed the shot as Nese and Kingston had been scrapping on the apron, but Nese took out Kingston with a high kick, sending him to the floor. Nese would then hit a Double Springboard Quebrada, by far the flashiest move of this strike heavy affair, landing with big impact on an already dazed Richards, and that was enough for the three.
Nese manages to pick up his very first pinfall here in Ring Warriors, but it was not without a big asterisk. Younger seemed very amused with himself after showing what he must believe to be cunning; there's no questioning his effectiveness, that much is certain. This conflict is definitely far from over.

EIGHT MAN TAG TEAM MATCH
Curt Hawkins, JTG, Trent Barreta, Zack Ryder vs. Eddie Edwards, Kenny Omega, Petey Williams, Sonjay Dutt
Hawkins and Omega have been in the midst of a bitter rivalry, and that was most certainly the heart and soul of this contest. What you had here was four New York natives who are very exciting up and comers taking on four very talented, world traveled individuals who wanted to put them in their place. These fans here in Albany were clearly behind their hometown crew, and they did not disappoint. JTG lost to Stevie Richards last week, serving up Richards with his first win since joining the Ring Warriors roster, but "Brooklyn's Flyest" looked to redeem himself here and did so well. He and Ryder would hit a very impressive Powerbomb/Rough Ryder (Jumping Leg Lariat), JTG pinning the fallen Canadian and earning the three for his team.
________________________________________________________
STREET FIGHT
Jay Bradley vs. Masada
Masada would fight with all of his might, but it was clear he was far from 100% after tearing his meniscus last week. Masada vowed to be here for this fight, as he would not let his rival Jay Bradley have the satisfaction of having him show any weakness, and he went out like a man. Bradley did a little bit of light work of the leg, but it was clear he wasn't trying to injure Masada any further, but it wouldn't make sense to just ignore it, given how heated their battles have been in the past. These two would fight into the crowd, with Masada trying to use steel chairs and, at one point, a trashcan to try and even the odds a bit, but Bradley showed his grit and fought through. Bradley would hit his Boomstick (Lariat) twice in the contest, but Masada would kick out of it both times, yelling out after the last pin attempt, showing his fighting spirit. Bradley would lock on a Half Crab in the middle of the crowd, though, pulling it back a bit but not overly so. Masada would show true anguish here, but refused to quit. The referee would call for the bell, as Masada's eyes rolled into the back of his head, obviously about to pass out from the excruciating pain. Bradley would let go quickly, celebrating, as medical staff rushed to the scene.
Masada was carried out on a stretcher, as Bradley just brushed off his shoulder, smiling as he walked away.

SINGLES MATCH
Brodie Lee vs. Chris Hero
Continuing the trend of super physical brawls, here comes Rochester's own Brodie Lee taking on the Dayton, Ohio, native, Chris Hero, in a match where both men just kept looking for that knock out blow. Lee looked to egg Hero on, as he clearly wanted to keep this match away from the mat, and Hero's pride would not let him back down, as he kept kicking, elbowing, chopping, punching, headbutting, whatever he could do to try and hurt the imposing force that is Brodie Lee. Lee would kick, club, and knee Hero, picking him up and slamming him multiple times, just trying to break his will. Hero would catch Lee coming with a Big Boot in the corner, staggering Lee back and it enabled him to deliver a big Rolling Elbow to the back of Lee's head! Lee would stagger up from that, looking about three quarters knocked out, and Hero looked to finish it. Hero would grab him into the Hangman's position and attempted the Hangman's Elbow (Inverted Headlock into Discus Elbow to Back of the Head), but as he was turning, Lee also twisted with tremendous force, just a step quicker than Hero and crushed Hero with a Discus Lariat! Hero flipped backwards and pretty much right onto his face, and Lee made the cover.
Brodie Lee gets the victory!
"My God..."
Regal is clearly stunned on commentary, as Mick Foley emerges from the back, applauding Brodie Lee.
Lee bites the top rope, looking out like a madman towards the crowd. What a showing! Hero almost had him, but Lee proved to be very resilient.

RING WARRIORS WOMEN'S TITLE
Hailey Hatred vs. Sara Del Rey (c)
Hatred and Del Rey have been feuding for quite some time, but tried to put that all behind them, or at least off to the side, as they attempted to team up to take down three other teams at the Great American Bash. Last week it was apparent there were cracks in the foundation of the team, and at the Bash, they had a full blown meltdown. This match was just a vicious, spirited match between two very malicious rivals, with Hatred doing whatever she thought it might take to pry that belt off of the dominant "Queen of Wrestling". Hatred would bust Del Rey opened from the nose with maddened crossface punches, trying to choke her out afterwards, but Del Rey wouldn't quit. Del Rey would would manage to end Hatred by locking her up in an Abdominal Stretch on the mat, proceeding to blast her with repeated elbows to the side of the head, a technique made popular by her mentor Bryan Danielson, and the referee would call for the bell. Del Rey managed to survive another match with her reign in tact, but just barely.

RING WARRIORS NO LIMITS TITLE/RING WARRIORS TELEVISION TITLE
NO DISQUALIFICATION FOUR WAY DANCE
Chris Sabin vs. Delirious vs. Homicide (c) vs. Tyler Black (c)
Three of the four have been in a contest like this before, as Homicide and Tyler Black both won the title they are holding in such a contest. If one of the champions is pinned, they lose their title to the man who pinned them. There is only one pin fall here, so if one of the champions pins one of the challengers, the match ends. If Black pins Homicide, or Homicide pins Black, they become double champions. I think that about sums it up.
Homicide and Black both really just wanted to end this match, but more importantly they wanted to keep their shoulders off of the mat and their body out of painful submission holds. Unfortunately for them, they were up against the likes of Sabin and Delirious, two men who specialize in both putting people's shoulders to the mat and twisting them up in excruciating submissions. Just add water and you've got a recipe for disaster, folks.
Such a disaster came when Black's past came back to haunt him, as we all knew it would. Well, especially me, but anybody who watches wrestling could see this part coming. The match was a true treat for the fans, which was the whole idea of making the match, as these men know how to pull out all of the stops and keep the hits coming, but for Black, everything got so much worse when the World Junior Heavyweight champion, Bryan Danielson, decided to come out and pay him a receipt for his attack earlier in the night. Black found out the price of being a good Samaritan, his helpful gesture to Alex Shelley causing him to get shoved off the top turnbuckle by a very angry "American Dragon," sending him down hard, jaw first into the guard rail on the outside. That pretty much knocked him out of this.
The ending was frantic, as to be expected, as Delirious would go up, looking for his Shadows Over Hell (Body Splash to Kneeling Opponent's Back) on Homicide, looking to win the Television championship, but Homicide would catch him in mid-air with an Ace Crusher! Homicide would think he had it, but Sabin would slide in and rush, catching with him with a Knee to the face as he went to cover Delirious! Homicide rolls backwards, holding his face, and is back to his knees. Sabin snares him up and twists his legs, yelling "HAIL SABIN!" and then smashing him with a Cross Leg Fisherman's Driver! Sabin keeps him held down and gets the victory!
Chris Sabin is the new Television champion, but one has to wonder what is going to be done about this Bryan Danielson situation, as Tyler Black holds his jaw and broods on the ringside floor, the World Junior Heavyweight champion just nodding and smiling on the entrance stage as the show comes to a close.
