The crowd is wild as the cameras roll, before the show we had an exciting pair of dark matches as Robbie X and Owen Pheonix went at it with Owen scoring with a Pheonix splash! The other bout featured the new tag team of Kenneth Cameron & Rampage Brown taking on Dean Allmark and Jimmy Havoc, Rampage planted Allmark with a brutal spinebuster in that contest. After a pair of pyro explosions a large Union Jack would unroll at the entrance way with big screen tv's on either side as "In A Rush to Meet the Queen" by Barbarian Overlords blares over the airwaves! This is NWA UK, and it's kickin' off proper! Before the show get's really going a countdown appears on the screen and when it ends, Chris Jericho bursts from behind the Union Jack with a brooding Burchill trailing behind. The crowd gives the hard working legend a nice pop as he grins wickedly putting the mic to his lips.
"I do believe I have your attention! If you don't know who I am then let me enlighten you. I am the King of the World, the Ayatollah of Rock N' Rolla! I am Chris Jericho! I've brought with me the always jovial, the ray of sunshine, you know him, you love him... BURCHILL! Tonight you're in for a treat as we lay an ass beating on the ass clowns in the ring! Jimmy Rave, John Morrison I hope your watching!" Jericho tosses the mic to a staff member at ringside who bobbles and almost drops the mic as Jeri-Hill enter the ring to take on The Kartel.
TAG TEAM BOUT
Jeri-Hill(Chris Jericho & Burchill) vs. The Kartel(Sha Samuels & Terry Frazier)
Jeri-Hill(Chris Jericho & Burchill) vs. The Kartel(Sha Samuels & Terry Frazier)
Jericho looked pumped to be here in South Wales grinning ear to ear as he climbed into the ring with Terry Frazier. Frazier is a black belt Karate would drop into a stance which Jericho would mock as he just enjoyed the crowd chanting and singing his praises. Frazier would throw some kicks to the legs of Jericho before the mat veteran would get serious catching a kick and trying early to apply the Liontamer but Frazier would kick free and scramble back to the massive Sha Samuels. Jericho would back pedal slapping the chest of Burchill before telling him to take care of Samuels. Burchill has been looking right pissed since stepping from behind the curtain, and you have to think the crowd isn't happy with him neglecting them for so long. Burchill and Samuels would try to go hold for hold with one another until Samuels dropped him with a shoulder block demanding that Burchill come off the ropes and try again! Burchill would try and fail at a second attempt with Samuels demanding he try again, only this time Burchill would boot the big man in the midsection before tossing him with a butterfly suplex. Burchill continued to dominate the "East End Tough Man" until Jericho made a blind tag after Burchill snapped off a beautiful neckbreaker. Burchill would snarl but Jericho would go for a cocky pin putting his foot on the chest of Samuels who kicked out after two. Samuels was able to break away from Jericho and put him down with a huge clothesline before falling back and tagging in Frazier. Terry tried to drag Jericho from a tag but ended up getting kicked in the side of the head before Jericho tagged out to Burchill who quickly planted Frazier with a C-4! Before he could go for the cover Jericho would tag himself back in and Burchill would begrudingly stop Samuels as Jericho nailed the lionsault to win the match for his team!
The odd couple of wrestling pick up a solid win as Jericho celebrates like he won the stanley cup AND took the pennant as Burchill climbs out of the ring and makes his way to the back.
SINGLES BOUT
Cedric Alexander vs. Mark Haskins
Cedric Alexander vs. Mark Haskins
Alexander came all the way from NWA New Orleans to take on Mark Haskins who's still high off of pinning Prince Devitt on the last show, interference or not. The pacing of this match was fast as both men have a very high octane style with Alexander having a bit of a strength advantage, but Haskins was able to bring him down for a two count after a leg lariat. Cedric had to check his teeth after but he was still in this match as Haskins tried to drag him to his feet. Alexander would fight back with heavy hands before dropkicking Haskins forcing Mark to scramble to the outside, but he wasn't safe as Cedric to the sky with a tope con giro! Cedric would high five some fans at ringside after landing on his feet, smiling wide being the happy guy that he is. It was Haskins turn to make sure all his teeth were there but was immediately tossed back into the ring where Alexander continued to apply pressure by applying a headlock. Haskins was able to work his way to his feet firing off elbows to the gut of Alexander to break the hold before hitting a leaping enziguri that would stagger Cedric, knocking him down with a dropkick. Haskins would climb the ropes looking for the shooting star press but Cedric would hop up hip tossing Mark off the top! Cedric would only take a second to launch himself off the top with a frog splash to get the three count here in Wales.
"Fanfare for the Common Man" rips through the building as Adrian "Lionheart" McCallum steps out from behind the Jack looking a world better than the last time we saw him. He's the captain of the team to face Johnny Moss and the United Kingdom in the War Games main event at Uncivil War. Lionheart climbs into the ring and gets a mic from a stage hand.
"At Uncivil War I'm captaining a team to take on the United Kingdom. So far I've got Danny Burch and Doug Williams on my side." The crowd gives a nice cheer for both men with Lionheart nodding his approval.
"Tonight I step in the ring with Iestyn Rees and Joel Redman, a couple of wanks who aren't shit without the other members of the United Kingdom! But the most important thing is tonight, I unveil the fourth man to my team at Uncivil War. He hasn't been in NWA UK in a long time, but he bloody well may hate Moss's guts as much as I do! His name is... well you're just gonna have to wait and see!" Lionheart smiles as he drops the mic as the show goes to commercial showing off "NWA Spring Stampede: The Tournament for the Title"

This was the first of the three first round matches to be hosted here in NWA UK, and both of these men looked determined to advance to the next round of this prestigious tournament! Anderson tried to pick the leg of McIntyre but Drew would widen his base clubbing Anderson with heavy hands before dropping down into a front face lock. The two men would wrestle for control with Anderson snapping off a hangman's neckbreaker. Anderson would pull McIntyre up for a shortarm clothesline but McIntyre would duck before nailing a big boot that flattened Anderson! McIntyre would deadlift suplex Anderson before going for a pin putting his forearm in the face of Karl but still only getting a two count. McIntyre would try for another big boot when Anderson tried to get to his feet but Karl would duck and drive Drew to the mat with a belly to back suplex. The vicious exchange left both men on the mat drawing a long count towards a double knock out but both men would stir fighting to their feet with chops from Anderson being answered with european uppercuts from McIntyre! Anderson would fire off machine gun like chops before delivering a spinebuster that got him two count. Anderson would get up signalling for the finish with a throat slash but Drew would counter a grapple and hit a double knee armbreaker. Anderson would try to shake the feeling back into his hand but it took him out of the match allowing for Drew to hit a gutbuster, Drew was feeling it now as he looked for the FutureShock DDT but Karl would quickly roll him up for a three count out of nowhere! Drew looked pale when reality set in as Anderson rolled out of the ring celebrating his tournament advancement!
NWA WORLD HEAVYWEIGHT TITLE TOURNAMENT BOUT
Shinsuke Nakamura vs. "The Football Hooligan" Danny Burch
Shinsuke Nakamura vs. "The Football Hooligan" Danny Burch
Nakamura looked focused as some smarks at ringside tossed streamers at him in a show of respect. Danny Burch wasn't as respectful as he came through the crowd with his rowdy fans smacking him and cheering him on as the Hooligan made his way into the ring putting up his fist ready to get into a fight. The bell sounded and both men went straight to the the middle of the ring exchanging hands and chops viciously with Nakamura throwing a roundhouse kick that Burch would duck, but Nakamura would spin and catch Burch with a kick from the other leg. Danny would roll to the outside to check his jaw as Nakamura tried to reach other the ropes to pull Danny back into the ring but the Football Hooligan would blast Nakamura with a right hand before pulling him out of the ring. Burch is vicious on the outside being a tough as nail shoot fighter slamming Shinsuke into the guard rail having fans at ringside restrain Nakamura for the big chop from Burch! Danny would pick up and drop Nakamura spine first on the apron with a modified belly to back suplex before pushing his opponent into the ring for a long two count. Burch wanted to end it trying for the London Bridge suspension DDT but Nakamura had it scouted as he fought from the grasp of Burch kicking his legs out from under him before scoring with a spinning back kick. Shinsuke went for the Boma Ye but Burch would lay down avoiding the knock out strike getting up to blast Nakamura with a clothesline to the back of the head but Shinsuke would duck the swing and come back with a bridging german suplex for a two. Burch still had a lot of fight in him and he would be all over Nakamura immediatly battering him with windmill punches even going as far as biting the head of his opponent! Burch tried for the suspension DDT again but once again Shinsuke fought out of his grip and this time he'd lock on a cross arm breaker that caught Burch off guard forcing the submission as Shinsuke advanced to the next round.

Wade Barrett vs. Crash Test Dummy
Wade Barrett vs. Crash Test Dummy
Neither of these man are from NWA UK, but they're getting some exposure here across the pond. CTD had to face off against a massive opponent and he tried to pick his spots careful but Barrett would catch him with his deadly fists nearly getting a knock out at one point but CTD was able to shake it off and keep himself in the match! CTD eventually put it all on the line after ducking a swing by Barrett and countering with a belly to back suplex before quickly locking on a chinlock keeping the bigger man on the mat. Barrett would roll CTD back into a pinning perdicament but CTD would kick out and tried to keep the pressure on Barrett but Wade would pick the legs of CTD and drive a boot into his gut while CTD was on the mat. Barrett looked very arrogant picking a fight with the crowd. He made a huge impact in the tournament to crown the NWA UK champion, but he ended coming up just a bit short. CTD would hit a dropkick to the back of Barrett sending him flipping over the top rope. CTD would wait for Barrett to get on his feet before coming off the ropes with a suicide dive sending Barrett crashing into the guard rail! CTD looked pumped but he gave Barrett to much time and got clubbed across the back with a brutal blow that would knock the wind out of most men. Barrett would roll CTD back into the ring stepping on his opponent on the way in before pulling him up trying for the wasteland slam but CTD would slip free and almost stole the win with a sunset flip but Barrett would kick out and blast CTD with a knock out punch that would make Big Show take notice allowing Barrett to deadlift CTD before slamming him to the mat with the Wasteland to advance!
We cut to a chat show featuring GRADO who's sitting in a chair facing a couch with the NWA World Tag Team champions, The Rockstars of Wrestling lounging as both the tag team titles and a few ladies lay lazily on the champions. GRADO looks a bit jealous of how the Rockstars embody their namesake.
"I'm ahem, here with the World's Tag Team champions, The Rockstars of Wrestling. Now you chaps have been champion's for quite a bit, and folks be calling you the most dominate team of the modern era. Why do you think that is." GRADO leans forward in his chair head in his hands as he listens intently for the champions secret for success. Jimmy Rave would lean forward as well as GRADO nods and smiles like an idiot.
"Well Jason Hades and I ended up taking the titles, but he just didn't have what it takes to live this lifestyle and so we parted ways. Then I see Johnny come along and get passed around like so many good wrestlers have been around the NWA. We teamed up and we're both at the top of our games and we're going to hold these titles for a very long time." Rave leans back smirking arrogantly as he grips his championship belt, Morrison is more interested into the young lady curled up to him.
"You've been champions for months now, if you had to pick a team that could take those belts who would it be?" GRADO smiles but it fades as Rave looks more than a little insulted over GRADO's question.
"Listen you goofy bitch, we're the Rockstars, we're the best in the business and there isn't a team in the NWA that's on our level. These belts belong to us and we plan on being the longest running champions of all time. In fact, anyone in the NWA that thinks they're on OUR level, Spring Stampede is coming up and we'll be more than happy to knock you back down. Isn't that right Johnny?" Jimmy smacks the chest of Morrison breaking him from his trance over the young lady as he smirks and nods chewing a piece of gum arrogantly.
NWA UK TV TITLE BOUT
CJ Banks w/ Dave Mastiff vs. "The Anarchist" Doug Williams
CJ Banks w/ Dave Mastiff vs. "The Anarchist" Doug Williams
Banks has been on a rocket to the top and now he has a chance for some championship gold as he faces off against the Anarchist. These two men would put on a wrestling clinic and Williams would come out on top showing up the younger Banks who looked pissed that he got out wrestled. Williams would smirk but Banks would try to slap the smile off his face resulting in a flurrey of european uppercuts from the champion sending the challenger reeling. Williams would waist lock take down Banks taking the match back to the mat trying to wear him down but Banks would smack Williams in the face again in a show of defiance even though he came up short on the exchange again. This time Banks would trade blows with Williams in the middle of the ring with Banks getting the upperhand in the strike department. Williams would eventually get a series of german suplexs going before hitting the chaos theory! Mastiff would get involved pulling on Banks arm breaking the hold that Williams had applied. Doug took a swipe at Mastiff but missed and Banks tried to roll up Williams but only got a two count out of the confusion. Doug would grab Banks in a cravate battering him with knees before snapping off a suplex floating over for a two count even with his elbow in the face of Banks. Mastiff tried to slide the TV title into the ring to Banks but Williams would get the belt instead looking to blast CJ with the belt! The ref would fight Williams for the belt pulling it from the champs grip, it was a trick however as CJ would low blow the champ before coming off the ropes with the running double knee putting the Anarchist on the mat for a three count.
CJ Banks would drop to his knees in the middle of the ring hugging the NWA UK TV title as Mastiff stood behind him arms crossed. Prince Nana and the rest of the Embassy would come to the ring to celebrate as Williams would roll to the outside holding his head and crotch, he got cheated out of the title and you know he's going to get revenge when the times right.
The show comes back from a commercial break as Redman and Rees are in the ring waiting for Lionheart and his mystery partner, and member of his War Games team. Lionheart looked so excited.
TAG TEAM TITLE BOUT
Rees & Redman vs. Adrian "Lionheart" McCallum & "The Celtic Warrior" Sheamus
Rees & Redman vs. Adrian "Lionheart" McCallum & "The Celtic Warrior" Sheamus
Rees and Redman turn as white as Sheamus as the Celtic Warrior makes his long awaited return to NWA UK! The roof is blown off the building as Sheamus bursts from behind the Union Jack smacking his chest red as he follows Lionheart into battle! The bell rings but both teams end up brawling in the middle of the ring! Sheamus get's shoved back by Rees but rebounded with the Brogue kick, only Rees would duck the kick and roll out of the ring. Sheamus would smile begging Rees to get back into the ring but the ref would get the match in order. The match itself would start with Redman and Lionheart in the ring exchanging holds as Redman looked to reinjure the ribs of McCallum. Lionheart would try to fight his way to a tag to Sheamus but Redman and Rees have been tagging a long time and were able to keep him in their corner. The ribs were a target as Lionheart tried his best to protect them, but his opponents knew what they were doing. The United Kingdom have been such a thorn in the side of a lot of people in NWA UK and this was the big chance to finally get some real redemption. McCallum would catch and slam Redman with a modified rockbottom allowing for a double tag and Sheamus would come in hot! The Celtic Warrior blasted both opponents with clotheslines before catching Redman in a bad position pulling him across the ropes bashing him with clubbing blows to the chest! Rees would try for a big boot to the back of Sheamus but the Celtic Warrior would side step and Rees would kick Redman in the back! Iestyn looked shocked that he leveled his partner and it allowed Sheamus to blindside him with a brogue kick! The three count was academic and Lionheart has finally gotten a measure of revenge as Sheamus asks for Guinness! Lionheart and Sheamus have a Stone Cold Steve Austin style celebration! This is a great win by the good guys but what will happen when the rest of the United Kingdom are in the house next week?
