•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• SEGMENT Outcome: Things are getting pretty messy in the build up to Apocalypse. Tyler York is quick to confront the tag team champions after they helped out Ashley, preventing her becoming yet another member of Anonymous to be taken out tonight. Creed and Dakota didn't seem bothered when confronted as the Brit explained why he did it, claiming he has no love for Ashley but is sick of everything Tyler and his stooges are doing. He felt provoked and has decided that if Anonymous need more members, he and Dakota are onboard. The Dark Oasis GM shook his head as he said that it's a mistake as everyone on Anonymous have very bleak futures in the company. Neither seemed bothered by what he had to say. After Tyler had them escorted out by security which means they won't be able to help out Josh in the main event. The Badass is on his own.
•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• FIFTH MATCH Kry w/ Gabriel Hunter vs Karla Winchester w/ Dave Wilson Stipulation: No Holds Barred Result: A new challenge was ahead for Karla as she took on Kry, someone who has been a thorn in her side recently. Many believe Kry's interest is all because of Gabriel Hunter, yet it seems she may also be interested in the Women's championship.
Kry started this one by throw her best at Karla. She hit a Spear, dragged her up and hit multiple suplexes then decided to work on her back. She hit a couple backbreakers then went for a cover which got a near fall early on. It didn't slow her down as she kept going, kept working on the spine and kept looking to damage her. One backbreaker gets reversed as Karla didn't want to be put on the shelf, especially when she is looking to make her current Women's title run one worth remembering. After getting Emilia Pruzzi out the picture, she'll be hoping to do the same to Kry, just to stick it to Gabriel.
The women's champion had the control and she put Kry through a lot of pain, including throwing her right over the top rope which causes her to land badly on her ankle. Karla showed no mercy as she got out the ring, only Gabriel decided to stand in the way of the Women's champ. She went to slap him only for him to grab her wrist then pulls her in for a kiss! Wilson lost his shit and ran around to start a brawl between the two. It is no holds barred so anything is allowed.
Karla is angry about all of that as she takes it out on Kry, attempting to just hurt her and beat her down. She left her laying in the ring and decided to grab the Women's title on the outside. The Sexpot then planned to hit her with it to knock her out. It would've also sent a statement if she knocked her out with this then won the match. Maybe give her a close look at the title she may never have.
The hit never came as Kry moved out the way just in time. She then drop kicks it out of Karla's hands when she turns around. Karla's anger got the best of her as she attempted a clothesline shortly after losing the title from her hands. Kry suddenly rolls her up and gets a sudden three count to defeat the champion. Right after Kry made her exit as Karla is furious she has tasted defeat. ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
SEGMENT Outcome: Tyler York questions Lauren Li backstage after she had decided not to get involved to help Anonymous during the attacks, despite being present. He then made her an offer to join the 'winning' team. He states that she will get her TXW contract back and also have a much brighter future than fighting alongside Nightingale's. He also mentioned how Lauren only ever had a loyalty to Jason White, who will no longer be fighting for Anonymous. The Lethal one had a chance to answer later as the main event will be the ultimate preview.
•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• PRE MAIN EVENT Calvin Bateman w/ Rosemary Price vs Pierce Kingsley Stipulation: Singles Match Result: The Reaper stepped into another match with Pierce Kingsley as he has been boosted by the arrival of Rosemary Price. This might be a big test too early in his revival but the fact he faced it without fears showed a lot. Not many want to willingly step in the ring with Pierce Kingsley, especially when they have issues.
Calvin started this by throwing out his best hits, looking to do the damage and set him on the path to victory. Pierce knew he wasn't going to just have an easy push over fight, he was at least going to be tested by someone who has everything to prove. Calvin got hit back and he stood on his feet despite how hard hitting Pierce is. Some just dismiss him as a high flying expert, a heel Jeff Hardy. But he is so much more judging by how this turns into a fist fight early on.
Eventually the high flying ability and also the class difference begins to show. Calvin took most of it well but even Rosemary knew on the outside that this is a BIG challenge. He isn't near the main event scene and might be a couple years away from it. Or he might not just reach that level since not everyone does.
When it looked over for Calvin he found a way to kick out and that left Pierce having no choice but to throw everything at him. He punches away at him into he is forced to his knees then kicked in the side of the head for the Pay Up. The former World Champion then drags him up and connects with the sister Abigail followed by a Springboard moonsault. This one would've ended right there if not for Rosemary who slides in the scythe then gets on the apron to distract the referee.
Calvin rolls over and grabs the scythe only for Pierce to kick his arm to make him lose the grip on it. He attempts to drag him to his feet only for Calvin to low blow Pierce. He then stands up and then hits the Reap What You Sow aka End Of Days. Both legs are hooked as the referee has his attention back on things. It could've been the end had Pierce not been near the ropes and aware of his surroundings. He just grabs the rope to stop a defeat from happening.
The Reaper can't believe it and grabs the Scythe as he thinks about using it. Only Pierce avoids the swing when it happens and then he kicks it out of Calvin's hands again. This time the Fixer hits the Say10 Spike aka Pop up Powerbomb onto the Reaper and this time Rosemary watched as she knew on this occasion Pierce had too much. It ended there with Pierce Kingsley winning ahead of Apocalypse. ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
SEGMENT Outcome: At ringside Josh had to walk through a 'corridor' of security as they are lined up either side of the ramp. He is out here early to talk about how his team have been picked off. Despite that he had offers from unlikely places to help him fill up the numbers. CJA can't wrestle, Jason White can't wrestle while Khaos and Wrath have been ruled out now through injuries substained tonight. Ashley Ricci, Lauren Li and Michelle Wright seem to be the only allies Josh has left. That's with Michelle not even being here or confirming she is apart of things since she hasn't done much since Brian placed people at her home to take her son. Lauren also has an offer, one she might take. So what does this mean?
Josh didn't look concerned as he managed to smile. He told the world that Brian is a desperate man, which shows with all his attacks. He says Anonymous will be fine and they will be at Apocalypse in full strength no matter what Brian does. He then clears up what the group is after, saying Josh wants to be reinstated as president of TXW. He wants the fun back and he feels Brian White has become a 'different' man in the Badass' absence. He says the plan was always about protecting TXW and not driving Brian White out. The Badass feels Brian is blinded and needs an ass kicking to open his eyes to what he has turned his own creation into. He says they are both needed and once Anonymous wins, TXW will be saved. •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••• MAIN EVENT Josh Nightingale vs Chris Slaughter Stipulation: Lumberjack Match / All Anonymous Banned From Ringside Result: The main event is here as the roster of TXW minus a select few surround the ring. Josh is already in the ring after his promo earlier and is ready for his first match in a very long time. There weren't many friendly faces out there so he knew they were all selected by Brian. Speaking of Brian he walked out with Slaughter who also had Tyler York and the Justice Bringers with him. The team that looks to destroy Anonymous is here.
Slaughter is soon in the ring and the match starts. It is quickly shown how those years out the ring have put Josh at a disadvantage. Slaughter dictated this and does some damage to the Badass. Josh is quickly thrown out the ring and that's when chaos began. All the lumberjacks seemed to be on orders to take hits and most of them did. Josh is thrown against the stairs, thrown against the barricade and then finally the ring post. After that he is put back in the ring for a waiting Slaughter.
The former tag team champion hits a Double Powerbomb on Josh which looked to put things to an end. It could've been if he hadn't decided to throw him back out to get more hits, this time from the Justice Bringers.
Enough was enough as the remaining members of Anonymous showed up. Ashley Ricci and newly aquired Creed and Huntress , who now have a beef with Tyler York for the most part. They came out with weapons as they had to deal with the numbers game. They took out security, they then took out some members of the roster into they were fighting it out with the Justice Bringers. It is pure mayhem as the referee had trouble keeping his eyes on the match.
Josh is put back in the ring and is barely moving. As much of a Badass he is, he did get hit from several different people and that's after the double powerbomb. Brian White decided to get in the ring as he starts to take shots at Josh Nightingale. His demands are clearly not something he considers worth agreeing to. The referee didn't dare to disqualify him as it continues.
Suddenly Michelle gets in the ring as clearly she is here afterall. She clears out Tyler York when he gets into the ring then she made sure to hit Brian right across the face. Without a second thought Brian grabbed her by the throat, only for Josh to make the save. He knocks Brian down, then kicks Slaughter on the stomach before hitting the Lights Out aka Pedigree. Cover made as this one ends in a big win for Josh. After he raises Michelle's arm as Ashley, Creed and Dakota join them in the ring.
It wasn't over there as Brian wants them all attacked. The Justice Bringers, a bitter Slaughter and other members of the roster surrounds the ring. Lauren then rushes out and is now given the choice. Seems she made her choice as she joins everyone else in the ring. Anonymous stand together but they soon find the numbers game too much even for them. Brian got his hands on Josh while Emilia Pruzzi is involved too as she took Ashley out with a spike DDT. Eventually the group are laid out as Dark Oasis ends in a depressing sight. ••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
