Hershey, Pennsylvania
In the opening segment Adam Cole and Steve Corino make their way out to a decidedly unfavorable reaction from this audience here in Hershey, Pennsylvania. Cole goes on to say that he feels he'd been selling himself short as of late, and perhaps he was aiming a little low. He says a North American title is pretty good, and certainly would be nice... but a World Heavyweight championship would be a lot better. He says after beating Chris Dickinson last week, he feels he's beaten just about everyone in this company worth beating and feels he should be getting his rightful shot at Samoa Joe!
Chris Dickinson and reigning Liberty Pro Heavyweight champion BJ Whitmer make their way out to the stage to disagree. Dickinson uses some colorful language to cut into Cole, basically calling him a coward and saying he's living on borrowed time and tonight, "The Death Machine" is ready to collect! Whitmer then takes the mic and says he's no fan of Chris Dickinson, and Dickinson wouldn't piss on him if he was on fire, but the enemy of my enemy is my friend, so tonight, they want to team up to take on Adam Cole and KENTA in a tag team match! Whitmer says that Cole has never beat him, and right now, he's the man in this territory, so if anybody is getting a title shot, it's BJ Whitmer!
Corino tries to take the microphone and say that they are very busy and KENTA is predisposed, but Cole snatches back the mic from the "King of Old School" and answers for himself. Cole goes on to say that he didn't expect such sour grapes and says that winning is winning, no matter how it happens, by any means necessary. He says if they are begging to be humbled, "The One" hears their pleas, and tonight, he and KENTA will knock them to their knees until they know who is truly the greatest in Liberty Pro!
Tyson Dux & Petey Williams versus Sonjay Dutt & TJ Perkins
Dux and Williams, otherwise known as "The Canadian Cyborgs", turned some heads at the last show with a big debut win. Dutt and Perkins looked to make their own names here in Liberty Pro off the backs of the Canadians, and they looked very good in their attempt. After 10 solid minutes of high risk, high impact action, the referee had to call for the bell, as this match was deemed a time limit draw! The fans gave both teams a good ovation, but I think it is clear that we will be seeing a rematch in the not so distant future.
The next segment sees a man by the name of Solomon Crowe make his way out to the ring accompanied by none other than the legendary former World champion Raven and female powerhouse Jessicka Havok. Raven gets a massive reaction as he tries to get on the mic. He is finally able to begin, saying in all the decades he's been in this sport, he has rarely seen a prospect of such intensity, such loathing, such rage and complete disregard for decency as this man Solomon Crowe! He goes on to say that with them is the toughest, most ruthless female professional wrestler in the world today, Jessicka Havok! He then says together, they will form a bond that is unbreakable, and he says with his guidance, they will receive all due reward and recognition.... quoth the Raven, nevermore!
Some loud music hits the speakers and it seems someone has a dispute with all of this, that man is Michael Elgin! Elgin asks if somebody said something about being "unbreakable"? Because there is only one "Unbreakable" force in professional wrestling, and that man is Michael Elgin! He says he is the man who will be taking the rewards and gaining the recognition, and right now, Michael Elgin is looking for a fight!
Crowe takes the microphone from Raven now and says he accepts his FIGHT, and this match is on!
Solomon Crowe with Raven and Jessicka Havok verses Michael Elgin
Elgin comes in hard, blasting Crowe with fists and eating some fists before hitting a Bicycle Kick to send Crowe to the outside! These two hard hitting stars battle around ringside, with Crowe pulling a page from Raven's book by drop toeholding Elgin into the guard rail throat first to gain an advantage. Crowe would continue to attack Elgin relentlessly, taking the match back into the ring and getting a couple of two counts before going for some neck contorting submission holds. Elgin uses his power to come back, hitting a big Uranage Bomb for a two count. Crowe and Elgin once again exchange hard blows in the center of the ring, but Elgin shakes Crowe with a Spinning Back Fist to win that exchange. Elgin tries to run off the ropes, but Havok grabs his foot, tripping him up. Elgin turns his attention and gets blasted to the back of the head by Crowe, who follows up with a great looking Backdrop Driver for a two count! Crowe calls for the end and goes to try for his Stretch Muffler, but Elgin breaks free and gets back up, ducking a Lariat and reversing it into a Crossface! Crowe shows his technical ability and manages to counter it into a pin attempt for a two!
Elgin tries to roll up, but Crowe catches him with a Lariat as he's up to a knee, taking himd own for another two! Crowe calls for the end, lifting Elgin and trying for a Headlock Driver, but Elgin shoves him away and kicks him to the face again, this time sending him to the apron! "Unbreakable" Michael Elgin grabs Crowe by his wild mane of hair and pulls him to the buckles, motioning to the crowd who give him a big ovation. Elgin proceeds to lift Crowe from the apron into the air, and he's stalling... the fans are counting... and Elgin sends Crowe crashing to the mat about a count of 15 with a Delayed Superplex from the apron, getting these fans on their feet big time, but only earning a two count. Elgin now calls for the end and attempts his Revolution Elgin Bomb, but as he's spinning, Crowe begins to bite his forehead, pummeling him with punches to the side of the head as he does!
Crowe lands on his feet in front of Elgin, who's holding his head in pain. Crowe runs off the ropes, smashing Elgin with a Polish Hammer as he yells out like a wildman, following up with a big Jumping Lariat that took Elgin down! Crowe pins again, but still just a two! Crowe grabs Elgin's boot, wasting a little time to posture in disbelief but not much, and he manages to do it... he locks on the Stretch Muffler, and he's stomping Elgin's head, yelling profanities as he does! The fans are chanting "This is Awesome!" as Elgin fights and fights, trying to bat away the stomps and yes! He makes it to the ropes! The referee calls for the break, but Crowe tries to pull Elgin away from the ropes instead! He tries to reapply, but Elgin uses his power to twist and he kicks Crowe in the face, sending him backwards in a daze and against the ropes.
Elgin is back up and Crowe charges forward with a scowl on his face, but Elgin ducks his advance and turns him, kicking him hard to the gut and lifting him up, spinning and Powerbombing him into the buckles! Crowe flies out of the corner, and Elgin grabs him again, this time grabbing him and spinning him and planting with the Revolution Elgin Bomb! The referee tries to count, but Jessicka Havok grabs his leg and pulls him right out of the ring, and into the ring comes Raven with a chair! Raven assaults Elgin to a chorus of boos as the referee calls for the bell in a daze!
Raven continues the assault and has Havok pick up Crowe. Crowe regains his composure, and with a look of disgust, grabs up Elgin off the mat. Crowe yells for Raven to put the chair down, and then proceeds to hit the Headlock Driver on the chair, further gaining jeers from the crowd! Elgin gets a disqualification win here after a Hell of a battle, but it looks like it is Crowe who got the last laugh. There will surely be Hell to pay for this.

AJ Lee & Serena verses Dark Angel & Cheerleader Melissa
In our next segment of the evening, Seth Rollins and Jimmy Jacobs make their way out with Seleziya behind them and they get a half and half reaction from this crowd here tonight. Rollins says that they, the "Forever Fallen" have taken down every obstacle in front of them, and yet they still stay unrecognized; they still retain their disrespect from this business, and this promotion. Guys like Adam Cole, Chris Dickinson, BJ Whitmer, they want to make claims, guys like Chris Hero want to throw out challenges, and yet none of them have done what Seth Rollins and Jimmy Jacobs have done, and they sure as Hell can't beat them!The current World Women's champion, AJ Lee, and her partner for the night Serena had their work more than cut out for them as they took on two of the best female wrestlers in the world today, Dark Angel and Cheerleader Melissa. Melissa is gunning for that World title hard, while Angel recently lost a close bid for it, so both are well in the hunt and wanted a piece of the champion. Lee and Serena showed a good amount of poise, but the chemistry seemed to be on the other side, and Melissa would end up hitting her Kudo Driver on Serena to get the pinfall victory.
Melissa mimes a belt around her waist as she looks down at AJ, who clutches her championship on the floor, and it is clear she is feeling the intimidation of the "Female Terminator" here.

To their surprise, it isn't any of the prior mentioned that come out to confront them but none other than Jay Lethal and he's on his lonesome here. No Veda Scott to be found, only a serious look on his face as he is sporting a nice suit and wearing gold rimmed shades, getting a big ovation from this audience here in Hershey.
Lethal says he's tired of hearing about recognition and respect. If there's one man who's been constantly disrespected, constantly undercut, and constantly overlooked, it's Jay Lethal! Lethal says Rollins and Jacobs, Hell, Adam Cole, all of these guys stepped right over him in South Beach when he was stealing the show night in and night out, guys he called friends, a guy like CM Punk, constantly pushed him down and out of the title scene for his own glory. Well those days are over! Jay Lethal's gonna be doing the pushing, according to him, and it doesn't matter who it is, they are going down for the count!
Lethal says he sees three men in that ring, getting a rise from the crowd as Seleziya protests the insult, and so he's thinking maybe two of them could face he and his partner for the night, a Mr. Chris Hero! The fans go nuts for this, and out to the stage comes Chris Hero and the Dayton native looks ready for action! Hero grabs the microphone and says if they feel like they've been overlooked, not to worry, because right now he's looking right at them and right now he sees two guys about to get knocked out!
Jacobs gets on the microphone now and he kind of mocks Lethal and Hero before correcting them. He says there are two men and one ravishing woman in this ring, which leads Hero retort that everybody thinks Jimmy Jacobs is a very pretty lady, but Jacobs isn't too thrown by this. Instead he says that there are three men affiliated with this group, and he's ready to bring the chaos!
This is where we expect Delirious to attack, but NO, it's DEAN AMBROSE! Ambrose comes up from behind Hero and whacks him, a man he's very familiar with, and Jacobs and Rollins storm out of the ring and go on the attack. Things seem bleak until Raymond Rowe makes his way from the back and he flings Jacobs like a ragdoll and the game has changed here! Officials come from the back and break things up, and it looks like we have six man tag team match set for later this evening!
Kyle O'Reilly & Bobby Fish verses Roderick Strong & Johnny Gargano
The newly christened team of "Red Dragon" were here with their game faces on as they took on "The Messiah of the Backbreaker" and a more smug looking Johnny Gargano here tonight. Gargano was obviously feeling pretty good after having a little success of late, and he and Strong actually made for a very sound team here, using solid, old school cut off the ring strategy here to work over Fish early on to make "Red Dragon" sweat. O'Reilly would come in with a vengeance though and would lay into both Strong and Gargano with some mean strikes, but Strong would lift him into a Fireman's Carry and send him over into a Backbreaker to change the tides. Strong would then begin to toy with O'Reilly and mock him, paint brushing the back of his head and booting him across the face. It is obvious that Strong hasn't forgotten that O'Reilly defeated him in his debut with the company and is still a bit bitter about it.
O'Reilly would manage reverse an attempted Strong Breaker into a Guillotine Choke, which he would transition into a Cross Armbar, but he just couldn't get all of it and eventually Gargano would make it past Fish to break things up. Gargano would send O'Reilly would deliver a jaw cracking Superkick as he was kneeling, then delivered a big Lawn Dart to the buckles to put him down for a two, but the Irish-Canadian, but Fish would break things up with a Moonsault! O'Reilly probably got hurt in that sequence, but Gargano was taken out. Strong would manage to come in and catch Fish with a Sick Kick and would earn a two count. From there, Strong delivers a Power Breaker and proceeds to lock on the Strong hold, but O'Reilly is back up and catches Strong with a brutal striking flurry to stagger him. O'Reilly attempts a Brainbuster, but Strong reverses it with a knee, following up by trying for another Fireman's Carry, but Fish is back up and spin kicks him to the gut. O'Reilly gets him up into a Brainbuster and Fish kicks him to the head to complete the Chasing the Dragon!
Fish dives to the outside and takes down Gargano and O'Reilly manages to get the three count, securing this newly formed team yet another impressive victory!
Strong is hurting, but he manages to get a microphone before "Red Dragon" evacuate the premises. Strong says that he's got unfinished business, and he wants to settle it. He says at the next show, he wants a rematch with O'Reilly one-on-one to prove who the better man really is... no interference, no B.S., just a real test of skills! O'Reilly gets a microphone and says he'll be glad to kick Strong's ass one more time if it'll shut him up! And that's the end of that, we've got a match set for the next show.

Chris Hero, Jay Lethal, and Raymond Rowe verses Seth Rollins, Jimmy Jacobs, and Dean Ambrose with Seleziya
This match was well paced with each man getting in a good feeling out process early before the "Forever Fallen" team sank their teeth in and started really playing rough. Rowe would start out things for his team against Jacobs, and he would dominate him pretty thoroughly, leading the "Fallen" to conclude that they wanted to keep him out of this if at all possible. That became hard to do as things broke down and Rowe would manage to catch Jacobs and Ambrose with some big strikes and suplexes, but all of that would be cut short by a springboard knee strike from Rollins! Hero would manage to get in there and he and Rollins began mixing it up! These two are set to face off at the next iPPV, "Never Ending War" and they had the fans on their feet with this exchange, which ended with Hero catching Rollins' attempt at a Lariat and spinning him right into a solid Rolling Elbow! Hero would try to get it, but Ambrose would pull him out of the ring and begin pummeling him with blows!
Jay Lethal would rush in and then right back out, smashing Ambrose with a dive! He would signal to the crowd and head back in and then hit another one to Ambrose! Lethal would go back in and think he was going to hit a third, but Jacobs would catch him out of nowhere with a Spear! Jacobs would go for the win, but only a two! Rollins and Jacobs both pick up Lethal and whip him, but Lethal ducks a Double Clothesline attempt and Handsprings... Double Lethal Injection, this crowd is going nuts! Ambrose gets sent back into the ring by Hero and Rowe pulls Rollins out of the ring. Hero goes and pulls Jacobs from the ring as Lethal delivers a Lethal Combination to Ambrose! From there, Lethal heads up top and signals... and he comes crashing down with the Diving Elbowdrop!
Lethal makes the cover on Ambrose and he gets the three as these fans start chanting for him, really appreciating his handy work tonight!
Lethal, Hero, and Rowe stand triumphant as Rollins, Jacobs, Ambrose, and Seleziya stand on the ramp, trying to figure out where it all went wrong.

BJ Whitmer & Chris Dickinson verses KENTA & Adam Cole with Steve Corino
Whitmer and Dickinson didn't wait for KENTA and Cole to hit the ring before heading out to confront them. Corino would even find himself in the mix, as the bell hadn't officially sounded, but he didn't seem to want to get too involved in the physicality. Eventually KENTA would get the better of the Liberty Pro champion, sending Whitmer into the ring. This was more or less a clean contest from here, as these two teams showed a great deal of pride and it was clear manhood was on the line. Cole seemed very determined, obviously taking the accusations from Dickinson to heart and he tried his best to break he and Whitmer down and show his skill tonight. KENTA and Dickinson would have the most brutal trade off of the night, as they would literally try to knock each other's heads off with open hand strikes and then kicks to the legs and chest. KENTA would duck a Corkscrew Roundhouse Kick from Dickinson and would catch him with his signature striking combination, following up and trying for the Buisaiku Knee Kick, but Dickinson would avoid it and lift KENTA up into a Military Press, dropping him into a Roundhouse Kick that would send him out of the ring and get these fans on their feet behind the "Original Death Machine"!
Whitmer would go after KENTA on the outside and Cole would catch Dickinson with a Dropkick, turning the tides and getting big applause from Corino on the outside. Cole would get on the buckles and signals for the Panama Sunrise, but Dickinson storms him and pummels him, turning him around on the second buckle and grabs him out into a Crucifix, running and planting him with a sick looking Awesome Bomb! Dickinson attempts a cover, but Cole manages to get his foot on the ropes to break the fall up. Dickinson calls for the end and goes looking for the Braineater, but Cole once again breaks away and tries for the School Boy he used in their last meeting, but Dickinson rolls through it and lifts Cole up, delivering a big Dead Lift German Suplex!
Dickinson thinks he has the match in hand, but KENTA is back in things, having gotten the better of Whitmer on the outside and he manages to catch Dickinson with that Buisaiku Knee Kick from earlier! Dickinson is out of the ring, and Whitmer is heading in after KENTA. KENTA is up and he and Whitmer are trading blows in the center of the ring. KENTA goes for a high kick, but Whitmer ducks and captures him into a Regal Plex! Whitmer bridges it, but KENTA kicks out! KENTA and Whitmer slowly make their way back to their feet, but KENTA is first to strike, relentlessly kicking Whitmer to the left knee over and over until Dickinson actually reaches in from the outside and trips him up, pulling him to the outside and they begin to brawl! Whitmer tries to shake off the damage to his knee when Cole rushes up behind him and grabs him up, hitting a Shin Breaker into a Back Suplex as Corino cheers him on from the outside!
Cole chains it and he's got Whitmer in the center of the ring with the Figure Four! Whitmer is in a lot of pain, as he has taken some serious damage to his legs and it doesn't look like he can hold on. He makes a last ditch effort to roll and reverse it, but "The One" is able to roll through it and reapply it before rolling yet again the opposite way and getting Whitmer right back in the center of the ring! Whitmer has no choice and taps out, giving Adam Cole the victory he so desperately desired.
Cole celebrates as Whitmer hobbles over to the time keeper's table, grabbing his championship with a harsh look on his face, obviously upset. KENTA and Dickinson are actually continuing to fight up the ramp here, and it takes a small group of officials to break them up, as by this time both men are beaten down and exhausted. Whitmer gives Dickinson a very cold response here, maybe blaming him for this loss as the show comes to an end.
