Ayako Masaki vs Morgan Kennedy

Despite what fans may think of Morgan Kennedy, she held her own in this match, although Ayako Masaki seemed to still out-wrestle Morgan. The two wrestled back and forth, getting the crowd invested, ultimately rooting for Ayako.

When Ayako seemed to have the match won, Ubel Kol came down to the ring to distract her. But not long after he came down, Seara Iverson did as well, steel chair in hand. She took a swing at the back of Ubel, who barely flinched. Ubel turned around and stood, staring at Seara.

Ayako was still distracted by this whole situation, which gave Morgan an opportunity to roll Ayako up with a schoolboy. The referee counted three and Morgan sprang to her feet in excitement.

Ubel turned around and headed into the ring to hold Morgan's arm up. Ayako slid out of the ring and Seara checked on her.

This was another impressive showing for both of these teams. The match was competitive and both teams got a lot of offense in.

In the end, Jordan Taylor and Noah Moore's experience led them to the victory as Jordan Taylor hit Henry Everett with his Springboard Missile Dropkick and pinned him.


Darren Emerson vs Jeremy Nordin

Darren Emerson was building momentum from last week and Jeremy Nordin was looking to get back on track.

The two traded control of the match for a while and as usual, Jeremy Nordin's cockiness cost him. After a flurry of offense, he turned his back on Darren and started boasting to the crowd.

Darren took the opportunity to hit Jeremy Nordin with his Ripcord Knee. He went for a pin but only got two. He then picked Jeremy up and hit his Release Tiger Bomb, this time getting the victory he wanted.

Darren got up and started dancing for the crowd as his theme song played. But before he could finish his dance, Jeremy had gotten up and blasted him with a punch from behind. He laid into Darren with punches and kicks while he was down.

Darren's best friend Luke Hansen sprinted down to the ring in his first appearance for GWC. He slid in the ring and ran at Jeremy who managed to escape the ring before any confrontation could happen. Luke helped Darren up and the two hugged in the middle of the ring.


Amira Fuentes vs Haley Storm vs Kennedy Monroe vs Promise Jackson | #1 Contendership for the GWC Women's Championship

This was another chaotic multi-person match. Women's Champion Moya Mote sat ringside and watched.

Haley and Promise formed a partnership of sorts, with their shared connection to Seara Iverson. Amira and Kennedy formed an alliance too, to try to combat Haley and Promise's, but they didn't work as well together.

Amira and Kennedy had both Haley and Promise down on the outside of the ring. Amira led Kennedy back in the ring and the two looked to be going for suicide dives. But before Kennedy could run toward the ropes, Amira pulled her close and hit her Fisherman Brainbuster. She connected with the move and went for a pinfall, getting the victory she was hoping for. She pointed at Moya outside of the ring, signaling that she was coming for her title. Moya signaled back that she was ready and for Amira to bring it.


In the Ring

Kaleb Kraven entered the ring with a microphone in hand and called out Dalton Vito and Daniel Matthews once again. To Kaleb's surprise, Daniel Matthews came down to the ring, also with a microphone. Kaleb asked Daniel to explain himself. Daniel started to give an explanation, but after a few seconds, Dalton Vito snuck in the ring and blasted Kaleb in the back with a chair. Daniel laughed and joined in on the attack.

The music of Kaleb's uncle Chris Kraven blared over the speakers and Chris Kraven emerged from the back. Daniel looked equal parts confused and shocked. Chris made his way to the ring and slid in. Dalton and Daniel slowly left the ring.

Chris checked on his nephew and helped him up. Once Kaleb was up, he also looked confused. Chris and Kaleb talked for a bit in the ring before leaving it, with Kaleb still looking confused.


Jonah Winston vs Liam Knight

This was a very physical matchup. The punches, forearms, elbows, and kicks made this match seem like an MMA fight for a while. Both men's chests were bright red as the crowd reacted in shock at each strike.

After a while, Charles Winston made his way down to the ring. Jonah rolled his eyes and yelled a few expletives. As Charles got closer, Jonah left the ring and approached his father. Once he was face-to-face with him, he decked him with a punch to the face. Charles hit the ground, clutching his jaw and looking furious.

Jonah headed back into the ring, but was immediately met with a kick to the stomach from Liam. Liam set him up for a Pedigree and successfully delivered it. He went for the cover and the referee counted three. Liam left Jonah in the ring and headed to the back.

Charles slid in the ring and got in Jonah's face. The two argued for a bit before Jonah left the ring and also headed to the back.


(c) Deontay Breen vs Alonzo Atkins | GWC Television Championship

This match was very entertaining. The two went back and forth and it seemed either of them could've walked out victorious.

Alonzo hit a Lumbar Check fairly early that sent Deontay Breen out of the ring. Alonzo left the ring to try to get Deontay back in it for a pin, but Deontay fought back. They wrestled a bit on the outside before the match eventually ended up back in the ring. Deontay ended up hitting his Mushroom Stomp, but only got a two count out of it.

Alonzo fought back and gained control back. He went to the top rope and tried for a 450 Splash, but Deontay moved out of the way. Deontay waited for Alonzo to get back up and hit him with the 540 Kick, but this time, Alonzo was the one who fell out of the ring. He collected himself on the outside and slid back in the ring. Both men were exhausted, but continued on.

Eventually, Alonzo went for another Lumbar Check, but Deontay flipped out of it and was able to quickly hit another Mushroom Stomp. He went for the cover and got the pinfall victory.

Alonzo grabbed a microphone and admitted that Deontay was better than he expected or gave him credit for. He shook Deontay's hand and left the ring. Deontay held the Television Championship up with a cocky look on his face, for all the crowd to see.

GWC Spotlight: Arden Blair

GWC Spotlight #2:  Arden Blair Arden Blair has been a dominant force on the GWC roster since the company's inception. She was the first woman to win a match for the company. After a loss in the semifinals of the GWC Women's World Championship Tournament, she has been on a mean streak, taking the GWC Women's roster down one-by-one. The only person who has really seemed to have her number is Maria Miller, who has been on a hot streak of her own. But with Chloe Cooper and Lucy Bishop by her side, it's going to be even more difficult to slow Arden Blair down. She may not be the most honest or moral person on the roster, but it's almost certain that championship gold is in her future. And for that, we're giving her the Spotlight. We know she'll love it.
