Wembley Stadium
Wembley Park, London, England
1/26/14
The crowd may not have been a sell out, but it was still extremely packed as this was the first supershow that London has ever seen. NWA President and promoter of NWA UK opened the show with his PM Nigel McGuinness and they couldn't look happier.
Dustin: WEEELLLCOME TO NWA STARRCADE!
The crowd gives a huge pop as pyros go off unrolling banners on either side of the entrance ramp featuring Christopher Daniels and Paul London. The show opens with a video package of highlights of Christopher Daniels career up until this point.
SINGLES BOUT
El Ligero vs. Kenny Omega
El Ligero vs. Kenny Omega
The crowd was wild tonight here at Wembley Stadium chanting and cheering at a deafening level. This match up got a nice ovation as these two crowd favorites started off what would become a hot night of action! Ligero and Omega would go hold for hold until having a nice stalemate that got a pop from the crowd. The match would speed up with Ligero actually diving over Omega's hadouken at one point before springboarding off the ropes attempting a tornado DDT that was countered with a northern lights suplex for a near fall. Omega would go on a rampage blasting Ligero with a series of sledgehammer blows before coming off the ropes with a head of steam nailing a dropkick that sent Ligero out of the ring to the floor. Omega would work up the crowd before taking a running start, launching himself out of the ring with a tope con giro high fiving and playing to the fans at ringside after landing on his feet! Omega would try for a springboard moonsault off the guard rail but Ligero would catch him, dropping him chin first onto the guard rail before rolling him back in the ring. Ligero would continue his offense with a slingshot senton getting up and signalling for the finish, but Omega would counter wrestle his way going for a Croyt's Wrath but Ligero would hug the ropes. Ligero would score with a leaping enziguri trying for another springboard tornado DDT but Omega would counter with a Hadouken followed up by a brutal Croyt's Wrath to come away the victor in the opening match of Starrcade!
The show would cut to the backstage area where Lionheart is being attacked by Magnus! Magnus had the cricket bat as he worked over the midsection of the champ, who tried to fight back but the hitman of the UK was merciless. Security and staff would rush onto the scene but Magnus did what he needed to do as he dropped the bat, adjusted his tie and walked away from the crime scene. Magnus would take a step around the corner and bump into NWA Hybrid Pro’s Magnus D, both right bastards in their respective promotions. They smirk at each other devilishly before passing each other as the show goes back to the ring.
FATAL FOUR WAY TAG TEAM BOUT

This match was wild as Shane Haste and Rocky Romero who mixed wrestling holds and powerful strikes feeling each other out only to have Romero chop Marty Scurll who looked pissed but got into the ring anyhow.

Marty would throw hands and kicks trying to bring the beast down but got planted with a huge body slam! Ryan would tag in his partner Rob Terry and the Warriors would toss Scurll high into the air before slamming him to the mat violently. Terry tried to make the pin but literally everyone flooded the ring to break up the pinfall. The match broke down awhile with everyone working together to toss the Welsh Warriors out of the ring! Mikey Nicholls is a daredevil and he climbed to the top taking a huge risk flipping out onto the Warriors only to be caught! Haste would make the save for his partner diving out onto the Warriors taking them out! The Hooligans tried for a double low blow while the ref was distracted, but the New School would make the block and the Hooligans looked scared before the two teams would battle in the middle of the ring infront of the loud crowd here in Wembley Stadium! Koslov would get tossed from the ring and Romero would get blasted with a roaring elbow from Sabre before staggering into the Graduation from Scurll giving the New School the win! The Welsh Warriors looked frustrated that they were taken out of this match, but Sabre and Scurll would really play to the crowd standing triumphant in the ring and the fans really gave them a great ovation!

12 MAN ELIMINATION BOUT, Losing Team Splits Up Forever
The Revolution (Johnny Gargano, Kyle O'Reilly, Chuck Taylor, Brian Cage, Jimmy Jacobs and Drew Gulak) vs The Pistols (Matt Taven, Sami Callihan, Mike Bennett, Tommaso Ciampa, Kallisto and Tony Nese)
The Revolution (Johnny Gargano, Kyle O'Reilly, Chuck Taylor, Brian Cage, Jimmy Jacobs and Drew Gulak) vs The Pistols (Matt Taven, Sami Callihan, Mike Bennett, Tommaso Ciampa, Kallisto and Tony Nese)
We will see one of these teams die forever here tonight, which in a way is a real shame, as both of these teams are filled with quality performers. The match started off with Bennett and Cage. Bennett taunts Cage, so Cage responds with a massive Lariat. Weapon X! 1-2-3, Mike Bennett is gone mere seconds into the match, what a start by The Revolution!
Kallisto is in and climbs to the top, going for a Hurricanrana, BUT CAGE DROPS HIM ON HIS HEAD WITH A POWERBOMB! Weapon X! 1-2-3, Kallisto is gone, Brian Cage is annihilating The Pistols single handedly.
The ref checks on Kallisto who looks hurt, as Matt Taven runs in AND LOW BLOWS CAGE! TAVEN EFFECT! 1-2-3, Cage is gone and the fans don't like it one bit, voicing their disapproval.
After the utter chaos of the opening minutes of this match, things calmed down a bit from here, as we saw some quality wrestling exchanges between the two teams. The scores were evened when after an exchange of near falls, Tony Nese eliminated Drew Gulak, dropping him on his head with a Reverse Piledriver to eliminate him.
After some more fun wrestling, we finally got Jacobs and Callihan in the ring together, as they proceeded to exchange some vicious strikes, with Jacobs trying to cut Callihan's head open with his spike. Just as things looked to be getting to their most violent between the two, the two stopped their fight, AND FLICKED THE MIDDLE FINGER AT THEIR TEAM MATES! The two grab weapons AND BEAT THE HELL OUT OF EVERYBODY! The crowd are going crazy as Callihan and Jacobs appear to not be on anybody's side, they've seen each others strengths and feel they can do a lot more damage as a team than as part of their respective faction! Callihan and Jacobs leave the ring like a car crash as they are both eliminated via disqualification.
Once everybody recovers, O'Reilly and Ciampa restart the match, as things once again calm down and we get some fun back and forth tag team wrestling, with neither team showing any major weaknesses. When it came down to it, the next elimination would see Nese fall to Chuck Taylor, who avoided a 450 Splash from Nese and dropped him with the Awful Waffle.
Taven and Ciampa are the only Pistols left, and desperation began to set in, they had to get the next elimination or they were screwed pretty much. Ciampa's power played a big part, as he would use it to shove O'Reilly off an Anklelock attempt, before hitting Project Ciampa to get the next vital elimination, and make this into a straight tag team match.
Gargano and Taylor had the experience advantage as far as teamwork goes, but considering how fantastic The Pistols double teams are it wasn't much of an advantage. Indeed luck played the biggest part in deciding who would be in that handicap situation. Taylor had Taven pretty much finished, tossing him across the ring with a Belly to Belly Suplex, but inadvertently threw Taven towards his own corner. Taven had just enough time to tag Ciampa, who cleaned house and nailed another Project Ciampa to eliminate Taylor!
Now it was desperation time for Johnny Gargano, lose and it would be all over for him and the group he has so tirelessly built since before this incarnation of the NWA was formed. Gargano had to act quickly, he rushed in as Ciampa got to his feet, unleashed a flurry of strikes before dropping him with the Hurts Donut, getting 3 before Taven could break up the cover.
So the fate of these two faction comes down to the two leaders, in a battle where one leader will triumph and the other will see his entire faction crumble. Gargano and Taven are both fatiqued by this point, and go for their big moves, with Gargano nearly getting 3 after the Hurts Donut (Taven only escaping with a foot on the bottom rope), while Gargano just about managed to kick out of the Taven Effect. Gargano looked for another Hurts Donut, but Taven tossed him off into the ref, who is stunned but not down. Taven checks on the ref as ADAM COLE HEADS FOR THE RING! Cole nods to Gargano and prepares to hit Taven with one of his crutches, as Taven is distracting the ref. COLE NAILS GARGANO WITH HIS CRUTCH! The ref didn't see it as Taven looks surprised to see what just happened. He picks up Gargano, TAVEN EFFECT! 1-2-3, THE PISTOLS HAVE FINISHED THE REVOLUTION FOR GOOD!
Taven celebrates undeniably the win of his career, as the rest of The Pistols (minus Sami Callihan) run out and hoist Taven in the air, the fans not liking it one bit. Gargano leaves, a look of fury on his face. A former Revolution member in Adam Cole, a man who fought alongside Gargano for years since before the NWA was reformed, has turned his back on him and killed The Revolution forever as a result. Whats next for Johnny Gargano, and indeed whats next for the other members of the now defunct Revolution? We cut to the back to Joesph Park and Jay Lethal.
Park: Jayson, tonight you square off with a man who says you have no respect for him in the person of CM Punk. If he cannot beat you then he has to shake your hand after the match. Your thoughts?
Lethal: CM Punk, almost a decade ago we squared off because you thought I'd be an easy victory on your way out the door of an indy promotion. Tonight, we fight because your deep-seated feelings of insecurity have told you that I don't respect you. You've started this because you either think I'm an easy victory or maybe you've started to believe that you don't have what it takes to be in the main event anymore. Tonight, there are no disqualifications; and as god as my witness when that bell rings at the end of the match, you WILL respect Jay Lethal.
NO DQ BOUT
Jay Lethal vs. CM Punk
Jay Lethal vs. CM Punk
"This Fire Burns" hits and Jay Lethal comes down to the ring dressed like CM Punk! He even shouts "It's clobberin' time!" to the fans who are going CRAZY! THAT should get under Punk's skin. "Cult of Personality" hits and CM Punk, looking FURIOUS, stalks to the ring. The bell sounds and this one is underway as the announce team mentions that this match has been given a fifteen minute time limit. There is no love lost between these two men and it showed as these guys set a fast pace that carried through the entire match. Each man had something to prove in this match; Punk trying to prove that he belonged in the Main Event of this show against Christopher Daniels, and Lethal trying to put himself on the map as someone to watch for in 2014. These warriors battled all over the stadium, with both men coming close to claiming victory multiple times; Punk even going so far as to hit a Pepsi Twist off the stage into the pyro area that brought the crowd to it's feet. Both men would crawl and stumble down to the ring, trying to make contact with one another. They get back in the ring as the time keeper says that there is five minutes left. Lethal would make his comeback hitting an inverted suplex into a wheelbarrow facebuster for a near fall with two minutes left. Punk would head to the top rope trying to slow Jay down and attempt a flying clothesline but Lethal would catch him, slam him to the mat, and lock in the Anaconda Vise! Punk would writhe around in the middle of the ring as the crowd would chant for him to tap! Punk looked ready to when the bell would ring! Time has expired!
The crowd boos at the result but eventually applauds the efforts of both men who left it all in the ring. Punk stands in the corner as the crowd chants "SHAKE HIS HAND! SHAKE HIS HAND!". Lethal comes over to him and extends his right hand. Punk ponders it and the ref comes over to him and tells him that he agreed to the stipulation. Punk paces along the ropes and kicks at the bottom one a few times before approaching Lethal and shaking his hand. The men embrace as the crowd cheers. Punk raises Lethal's hand....AND PULLS HIM INTO THE GTS! CM PUNK HAS KNOCKED LETHAL COLD! The crowd roars it's disapproval as the announce team puts over what a despicable act this was.
Matt Taven and The Pistols are backstage with Bubblegum
Bubblegum: Matt Taven, you and The Pistols won your match here tonight and have defeated The Revolution once and for all, however it wasn't without controversy. What was with Adam Cole's involvement, did you have anything to do with it?
Taven: How dare you accuse me of using outside interference to win the match, Adam Cole's involvement was entirely for his own reasons and I had no prior knowledge that it was going to happen. It was entirely a case of Johnny Gargano being in the wrong place at the wrong time. Instead, why don't we talk about the fact that in one night, I pinned both Brian Cage and Johnny Gargano in the middle of the ring, the two biggest thorns in my side over the past few months. Or that my Pistols proved once and for all that we are better than The Revolution ever were. This interview is over.
Taven storms off along with the rest of The Pistols, as Bubblegum shrugs as we cut back to the ring.
The United Kingdom(Redman, Rees, Vansen & Ayass) would come out with Johnny Moss but were immediatly ejected from ringside by order of NWA UK PM Nigel McGuinness! The crowd went wild as The United Kingdom fumed but eventually went to the back.
NWA UK CROWN BOUT
Johnny Moss vs. Adrian "Lionheart" McCallum(c)
Since the revival of NWA UK these two men have fought tooth and nail for the crown. Moss was aggitated that he lost his support at ringside. Lionheart came into this bout with his ribs taped from the vicious beating he recieved at the hands of Magnus earlier in the night. The match started briefly with mat wrestling but a frustrated Moss would quickly assault McCallum with punches and elbows venting out his anger on the champion! McCallum would get a foot on the ropes but the ref had a hard time pulling Moss off and had to remind him that he would lose the match if he didn't let up. Moss would start targetting the ribs of McCallum, and you knew that it was the game plan coming in and it was working as Moss applied a bearhug, if there was any crack to the ribs of McCallum Moss would surely break them! Adrian would fight back after looking like he may pass out, throwing hands and even biting the forehead of the challenger! McCallum continued to pummel Moss before clotheslining him over the top rope to the outside. Lionheart would drop to a knee clutching his ribs as some of the adrenaline would subside, every breath that McCallum took would send waves of pain through his body. McCallum would hurl himself over the ropes onto Moss and continue to fight on the outside.
Adrian used a cable cord to choke the life out of Moss before picking up and dropping the challenger with a belly to back suplex on the ring apron. McCallum would show his fighting spirit slamming Moss's head off the announce table before slamming him into the guard rail. Moss wasn't ready for this kind of fight out of a wounded McCallum, who pulled Moss back into the ring planting him with a one arm slam with authority but only got a two count. The frustration from McCallum finally bubbled to the surface as the champion knew he had a serious fight on his hands and the longer the match the more his ribs would become a factor. McCallum would try for another slam but Moss would finally fight back with forearm shots before snapping him to the mat with a series of suplexes. Moss would go back to work on the ribs of Lionheart taking the breath away from the champion. Johnny's gameplan was working and you could hear McCallum cry out in pain even over the roaring crowd who tried to will him back into the fight. Moss looked to end things signalling for a tombstone piledriver but McCallum would fight out before hoisting and dropping Moss with a tombstone of this own! The crowd popped but McCallum would nearly pass out from the pain in his ribs as the ref started counting towards a double knock out. Moss was up faster than McCallum who had to use Moss to pull himself up as both men exchanged european uppercuts in the middle of the ring before McCallum tried for another one arm slam but Moss would fight out with elbows before scoring with a bridging german suplex for a long two count! The match continued! Adrian would clutch his ribs as he fought with the other finally putting Moss down with a slam! The crowd was going wild at this point as McCallum would climb the ropes looking to finish the match with the frog splash but he didn't have the strength to climb fast enough and Moss was up with him as they fought on the top rope. It took some jocking for position but in the end Moss would come off the second rope with a tombstone piledriver that was enough to put Lionheart away!
PM Nigel McGuinness and Master of Ceremonies, William Regal would come out with the crown and throne looking disgusted. The United Kingdom would flood from the back and Dean Ayass would grin wickedly barking at Regal as he was forced to crown Johnny Moss the new champion of NWA UK! The fans in attendance would litter the newly crowned champion with garbage but nothing could bring the spirits of Moss down on this night!
NWA NORTH AMERICAN TITLE TLC BOUT
Bif Busick vs. Harry Smith vs. Samoa Joe vs. Tyler Black vs. Adam Cole vs. Dolph Ziggler(c)
Bif Busick vs. Harry Smith vs. Samoa Joe vs. Tyler Black vs. Adam Cole vs. Dolph Ziggler(c)
"Hail Britannia" hits and Harry Smith comes out first to a gigantic pop from this Wembley Stadium crowd. Nearly everyone in attendance is chanting "HARRY SMITH! HARRY SMITH!" as Harry gets in the ring. Harry basks in the cheers from the crowd as the rest of the participants come to the ring, with Adam Cole getting the loudest boos of the evening; and it's not surprising considering how busy his night has been already. The ref holds the NWA North American Title in the air, hangs it on the hook and it raises twenty feet into the air. The bell rings and everyone makes an immediate beeline for Cole, taking out "The Panama City Playboy" early. Ziggler and Smith square off while Joe goes to the outside and continues working on Cole who is trying desperately to get away. Biff Buscik and Tyler Black face off, throwing rights before Black goes to the outside, grabs two chairs and enters the ring. Black asks Biff if he really believes that Black is a flake, Biff nods "yes", so Tyler holds out the chairs and tells "The Man" to pick one! Biff does....and they start hitting each other over the heads with the chairs! Back and forth with unprotected shots to the head they go, neither man giving an inch, but on increasingly wobbly legs. Biff with a shot as Ziggler sets up a table in the corner, Black with a shot as Cole comes back in the ring and lays a forearm into the back of Ziggler. Biff and Tyler are leaning against each other when Joe comes through with a ladder and takes them both out! Joe runs the ladder into the face of Smith who rolls to the outside and he is a house a fire. Joe sets the ladder down, sends a charging Cole to the outside and starts laying in palm strikes to Ziggler. Joe has him dazed and he grabs the North American champion in a half nelson.....half nelson suplex through the table! The crowd chants "HOLY SHIT!" and Joe has them fired up! Joe sets up the ladder and it looks like he's going to try for the belt. Joe gets about a quarter way up but gets a chair chot to the back from Adam Cole! Cole climbs up behind Joe.....FLORIDA KEY OFF THE LADDER! BY GOD ALMIGHTY!
Cole takes a minute to pose for the fans who boo relentlessly Cole goes out and brings in two tables, setting one to the side of the ladder and the other on another side. Cole pauses to admire his handiwork before climbing up the side of the ladder that doesn't have a table in front of it, taking his time, but starts panicking because Tyler Black is coming up the other side! Tyler Black, eyes glazed over, refuses to let his foe get the North American Title! Cole looks amazed and lets Black get near the top of the ladder before laying in with rights to the face. Black is dazed and Cole gets a weird look in his eye. Cole gets on top of the ladder, head brushing the North American title.....PANAMA SUNRISE THROUGH THE TABLE! ADAM COLE JUST BROKE THE 2013 KING OF THE RING DAMN NEAR IN HALF! SON OF A B****! The crowd is on it's feet chanting "HOLY SHIT!". Harry Smith hits a running power slam on Ziggler outside the ring and the commentary team mentions that it doesn't even stand out amidst the widespread chaos that is this match. Cole manages to disentangle himself from Black and the table and goes to climb the ladder. Busick is trading blows outside the ring with Samoa Joe, never a good idea, and Joe starts headbutting him! The crowd counts along as Cole, favoring his back begins his slow climb to the top. Joe misses a headbutt and gets a VICIOUS lariat from Busick that damn near beheaded the Samoan Submission Machine. Cole is two steps away when Johnny Gargano comes running down the ramp! Gargano gets in the ring and begins climbing up the ladder after Cole who is a finger tip away from immortality! Gargano grabs Cole...HURTS DONUT OFF THE LADDER THROUGH ANOTHER TABLE! BY GOD THAT KILLED COLE! THAT KILLED COLE! Adam Cole caused Gargano's Revolution to split up earlier in the show and the former NWA World Junior Heavyweight Champion has gotten his retribution! Cole is spasming, Gargano is barely stirring and the crowd is beside itself! Ziggler is back in the ring and he has a couple of chairs with him, having laid waste to Harry Smith outside. Ziggler stacks the chairs up on top of each other and puts the ladder back up as EMT's have cleared the carcasses of Gargano and Cole from the ring as well as the remains of the tables. Good Lord say a prayer for these men. Ziggler barely begins his climb before getting yanked down and hit with a clothesline to the floor from Busick, taking a nasty bump in the process. Busick has a foot on the ladder but can't go further because he eats a Saito Suplex from Harry Smith who's back in the ring. Harry sends Busick out and looks up at the North American Title as the crowd is deafening! The announcers tell Harry to go for it, to make himself famous, and Harry starts the climb. The crowd is going delirious chanting "HARRY SMITH! HARRY SMITH!" and the Canadian Bulldog is halfway there. Wait! Dolph Ziggler is up! Ziggler is on the apron and seems to be calculating something....he springboards and it looks like he's trying for the Zig Zag! Smith shrugs him off and holds on! Ziggler crashes and burns through the chairs! Ziggler's back is buckling as he's screaming in agony. Smith is there! Smith gets the title! Smith wins! Smith wins! We have a new NWA North American Champion!
The crowd is going berserk as Harry is in tears, clutching the title to his chest. Smith climbs down the ladder, leaves the ring and goes to the barricade where he finds his mother and kisses her on the cheek. Really great moment.

NWA WORLD JUNIOR WEIGHT TITLE BOUT
Prince Devitt vs. AJ Styles vs. Daniel Bryan(c)
Prince Devitt vs. AJ Styles vs. Daniel Bryan(c)
The so called insiders have been asking why Bryan hasn’t gone for the Heavyweight title, citing the Junior championship as a second tier title. Daniel Bryan has gone on fiery rants defending not only his reign as champion, but the prestige of the title itself. AJ Styles is a two time Junior champion, although he hasn’t held the championship since 2003, but he came into this match putting his CPW Junior title on the line. Prince Devitt has exploded onto the scene and is bringing the NWA UK X title into this match, meaning that the winner will become a triple crown champion! All three men had fans in the crowd, and Devitt maybe a bastard in NWA UK, but he’s NWA UK’s bastard so he got a lot of love from the fans. The match started out with Devitt going right at Bryan as Styles took a step back letting his opponents wear each other out. Devitt was a barrage of strikes working Bryan back into the corner but DB would answer back with headbutts followed up by forearms working his way back to the middle of the ring. The realization that Styles wasn’t involved stopped Devitt and Bryan who turned into a springboard double dropkick from the Phenomenal One! Styles would go after Bryan looking to apply the calf killer, but Devitt would break up the submission and throw Styles to the outside, but Styles would hang on and land on the apron. Devitt would try to fight Styles off the apron but ended up getting hit with a leaping kick to the side of the head that would stagger him into Bryan who would apply the YES lock! Devitt would cry out in pain in the middle of the ring. Eventually Styles would have to break the hold in order to keep the match going, and Styles and Bryan would go back at it again as Devitt rolled out of the ring to regain his composure after being locked in the punishing submission. AJ would whip Daniel towards the ropes but Bryan would take a dive through the ropes taking out Devitt! AJ would get his chance to fly hitting a springboard shooting star press to the outside that popped the crowd! AJ Styles would smile wide soaking up the cheering from the crowd who absolutely adore him. Styles wouldn’t celebrate long however as Daniel Bryan went to work with chops before sending Styles shoulder first into the ring post. Bryan would use an armbar across the post to add painful leverage on the arm of Styles before Devitt got back into the match hitting a mafia kick to the exposed shoulder of Styles before stomping on Daniel Bryan. Devitt would try for a bloody Sunday on the outside but Daniel would fight out of the front facelock and reverse into a hammerlock sending Devitt into the ring post as well! Bryan tried for a leg lariat but Devitt would move and the World Junior champion would crash and burn against the unforgiving steel post! Devitt would roll Bryan back into the ring trying for a double stomp off the top rope but Bryan would roll out of the way and Devitt would turn around into a pele kick from Styles who was still nursing his shoulder. Styles would turn into forearm shots from Bryan as both men exchanged shots in the middle of the ring! The crowd was electric and Styles would duck a haymaker to pick up and plant DB with a rack bomb. Styles would immediatly get blasted with a kick to the chest from Devitt who would continue to pepper in the kicks violently. Styles would lay back making Devitt miss a huge kick before kipping up and hitting another pele kick sending Devitt out of the ring. Styles looked for a Styles Clash on Bryan but he’d get kicked in the side of the head forced to let go of the lift as DB would yank him down into the YES Lock! Devitt would try to climb back into the ring but Style’s shoulder was just to injured and he couldn’t hold out any longer in the painful hold.
Daniel would release the hold stunned as a second ref got into the ring to help hand over the titles. AJ would get up favoring his arm but offering DB a handshake before fastening the World Junior title around the champ’s waist. Daniel Bryan had so much gold on him as he turned to offer Devitt a handshake as well after such a hard fought battle. Devitt would sneer and point a gun finger at the champion before slithering out of the ring in bitter defeat. The scene in the ring however was another story as Styles raised Daniel Bryan’s hand in victory!
NWA WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT TITLE BOUT
Paul London vs. "The Fallen Angel" Christopher Daniels(c)
The bell rings, and the competitors meet in the middle of the ring. They go nose to nose, barely exchanging words, as the camera is shaking from the noise that this Wembley Stadium crowd is making. Daniels and London shake hands and circle each other for a few moments before locking up. Daniels grabs London in a side headlock and cranks it in; London pushes off and sends Daniels into the ropes. Daniels gets leapfrogged and hits the other ropes while London telegraphs a back body drop. Daniels floats over London and brings him down with a sunset flip! One...and London rolls out, quickly hitting a dropkick to the still seated Daniels. London starts dropping elbows onto the chest of the champion and finishes it off with a standing moonsault but Daniels gets the knees up! Daniels takes advantage of the opportunity to hit a swinging neck breaker, shoots the half and gets a one count before London kicks out again. Daniels picks his challenger up, throws him to the outside and nails him with a dropkick to send him to the floor. Daniels surveys the outside quickly as London unsteadily gets to his feet and goes to the top....and hits a split legged moonsault to the floor! Daniels gets to his feet and the crowd is FIRED UP! Daniels rolls London back into the ring and London immediately gets up, builds up a head of steam off the ropes and hits a baseball slide before landing a springboard plancha! London rolls Daniels into the ring and signals for London's Calling, goes up to the top, but Daniels hits the ropes and crotches London. Daniels goes up and hooks for a superplex but London shifts his weight and they go crashing down to the mat! The ref counts...one....two....NO! Daniels gets the shoulder up!
London immediately goes for an enzugiri, but Daniels ducks, hits a ddt which London bounces up from, and nails an enzugiri of his own! Daniels rolls London into the corner and sets for the BME but London rolls out of the way! Daniels crashes and burns while London crawls to the top rope.....LONDON'S CALLING! HE HIT IT! NEW CHAMPION! NEW CHAMPION! LONDON COVERS! ONE...TWO....NO! DANIELS KICKS OUT AND TWO AND NINE-TENTHS AND SAVES HIS TITLE FOR NOW! Daniels gets back to his feet as London questions the ref, pleading for a three count. The crowd is chanting "THIS IS AWESOME!" repeatedly as Daniels and London meet in the center of the ring. Nose to nose, sweat dripping off of both of their faces, champion and challenger exchange words before exchanging right hands! Back and forth we go, neither man willing to give an inch. Daniels misses with a right hand and London takes him down with a sleeper slam before going up top again. London motions around his waist, and signals for London's Calling again! He looks to take off but Daniels catches him in the gut! Daniels butterflies the arms.....ANGEL'S WINGS FROM THE SECOND ROPE! DANIELS COVERS! ONE! TWO! THREE! DANIELS WINS!
Winner, and STILL NWA World Heavyweight Champion: "The Fallen Angel" Christopher Daniels
The crowd gives both men a standing ovation. The ref gives the belt to Daniels who picks London up and embraces him before going to the corners to pose for the fans. Samoa Joe, AJ Styles, Low Ki, and Christian come out to the ring and embrace Daniels and there isn't a dry eye in Wembley Stadium. The crowd is chanting "THANK YOU DANIELS!" Daniels is lifted onto Joe's shoulders with Styles, Ki and Christian surrounding them.
