π Quality Arena π« Parts Unknown, FL
We got a Mayday Payday recap video package to open the show; stills of Genesis King then “Explosive” Emily Bennett + “Cambodian Cool” Keo Tevi and the Undaunted celebrating their preshow victories gave way to longer highlights of results from the pay per view proper…
π² A quick paced and high octane opening tag saw Science Fiction Double Feature debut a new finisher called Down To Earth in going over Justine Danek and Bella Jolie of Hysteria (neither Nancy Crowley or Jupiter Jones were at ringside ahead of their main event and missed the winning spinebuster into splash combo from Collipark) π²
π²π² The Chosen managed to eke out a win over the Forbidden Book Club, catching a break when some mistimed offense led to Shelley LaVey accidentally wiping out “Night Sky Diana Spare - “the Purifier” Caleb Gray took advantage and hit Repent on Shelley for the win π²π²
π²π²π² The triple threat for the National championship followed with Orion taking on both Bonnie Agrippa from Hysteria and Summer Rose • Orion having beef with both challengers but the challengers also not getting along despite the fact they've both heels, feeling that the other was a pale imitation of themselves • Orion and Bonnie briefly teamed up to keep Summer down for a stretch • Bonnie and Summer put their bad feelings aside to take down Orion repeatedly but when they both went for a cover at the same time the truce blew up • Orion and Summer teamed up to send Bonnie from the ring but Bonnie would yank Summer from the ring and Lawn Dart Rose into the steps • this left things as an Orion/Agrippa fight that Bonnie was getting the best of – but Orion countered Eclipsing the Light with an inside cradle to retain leaving the High Priestess of Hysteria mad she got pinned and Summer just as mad that she didn't π²π²π²
π²π²π²π² Tre Boyd v. Omar Littlefield kicking off the back end of things from Philadelphia, Omar beating on Tre but Boyd refusing to stay down • Omar hitting Tre with multiple Vader Bombs and a couple of Face Erasers but Boyd getting a foot on the bottom rope • Littlefield bench pressing the Gospel and tossing him into the crowd, Tre getting body surfed but just barely managing to beat the ten count • Omar saying the hell with it and punting Tre in the balls to get intentionally DQed • The Republic drawing a bed of barbed wire from under the ring but Tre bailing out before it could be used against him, Tre crowing that he'd beaten every one of Ig’s foot soldiers in the Republic π²π²π²π²
π²π²π²π²π² The Iron Team challenge for the QCW World Tag Team championships was the semi main with Pyotr Caviar and MalicΓa Fernandez of the Republic trying to regain the belts from the oil and water team of Grand Slam holders Nazir el-Fadal and Mason ‘Razorblade” Savage • Razorblade winning the first fall by making Pyotr tap to a bulldog choke • MalicΓa pinning Razorblade after a Death Warrant to tie things up at 1 • Naz pinning MalicΓa after Nazquil to give the champs a 2-1 lead • Pyotr giving Naz a hidden low blow before Hit My Music tied things up • a full on Pier 4 happening as time expired • Duck Eko announcing that by order from Commissioner Holmes we were going to sudden death overtime • the babyfaces fighting from underneath and hitting 3D on Fernandez to have Philly going nuts • Naz getting pulled from the ring by Caviar while Ig distracted the ref, allowing a member of Republic Enforcement to get in the ring and zap Razorblade with a taser • MalicΓa pinning Razorblade for the shady 3-2 win to regain the belts • everyone but Ig shocked when the Enforcement member revealed Razorblade’s protege and the previously missing in action Justice Davis • the newly expanded Republic celebrating the title victory while the One Man Jihad sat shellshocked on the floor π²π²π²π²π²
π²π²π²π²π²π² The main event for the Fifteen Pounds of Gold as Hysteria backed up Duquesne Classic winner Nancy Crowley while Collipark backed up the legendary Jupiter Jones, turning the World title tilt into a defacto lumberjack-and-jill match • a match kickstarted by Crowley jumping Jones during the pre match intros, the most Feral member of Hysteria willing to do whatever It takes to become World champion • Jones bouncing back quickly and getting the upper hand with his power advantage • Crowley proving her toughness by kicking out of a double underhook powerbomb • and the Thunder Rolls running powerslam • dodging the Bolt From Olympus with a Matrix bridge and throwing Jupiter repeatedly into the ring post as Hysteria seemed to be casting a spell and chanting at ringside • Nancy continuing to work over the arm to Collipark’s concern • Nancy cutting off a second try at the Bolt by hitting a cutter, then spamming her Bite Me finisher • Crowley practically howling as she hits it not once, twice or even thrice but four times – and pinning Jupiter clean in.thr shock of the year (so far) • Surrender Cobras out in force as Crowley takes the Fifteen Pounds of Gold • Hysteria hitting the ring to rejoice, Justine and Bella going nuts while Bonnie appluds • Jupiter holding his limp right arm close to his side as he heads towards the medical bay with his concerned, disbelieving and saddened proteges trailing behind him • Hysteria having finally taken over QCW as they long promised they would and nothing to stop them now – except why is Mastodon suddenly playing? π²π²π²π²π²π²
π²π²π²π²π²π²π² Orion at the top of the ramp, National championship in hand • Crowley ordering the rest of Hysteria to stop the Cosmic Champion from getting to her • Agrippa, Danek and Jolie go after Orion and all get laid out whether it's strikes, belt shots or a run up the retaining barrier into a huracanrana to send Bonnie flying into the steps • Nancy now waving Orion on as they enter the ring • Duck announcing officially that Orion’s cashing in • Nancy trying to get herself DQed by using her newly won belt but the referee yanking it away from her • Crowley turning around into a satellite DDT - and then Orion's Nebula – then an enzui Shining Wizard – and a very familiar looking Shining Wizard - the three count on Nancy sending Philly into bedlam as Orion’s the new World champion - except they’re not + because they rip off their mask to reveal Autumn Powers, back from seeming exile
Streamers going nuts • Steve and Carl yelling at the top of their lungs • all four jaws of Hysteria somewhere in Jersey • the giddy and overjoyed fans vaulting the barrier to hug Autumn and put her on their shoulders as she holds up the title she regained • even more fans getting into the ring as pyro explodes at the top of the ramp • the ring literally buckling under the weight of the mass of humanity in the ring as everyone ends up on the floor (thankfully no one appears to be too shaken up or they're flying so high on adrenaline, serstonin and/or alcohol they wouldn't come down until Tuesday anyhow) • Autumn holding up the QCW World title on the shoulders of dozens as the rabid Philly fans chant “QCF’NW!” to take Mayday Payday off the air and end this recap
As the video package faded out, the live shot of Quality Arena faded in. Per usual on Friday night it was packed with nearly a thousand loud and proud Quality Controllers - and the decibels only went up when we heard Duck Eko say "Please help me in welcoming the NEEEWWWWW QCW World Champion: Autumn Powwwwwwerrrrrrrrrrssssssss!”
The usual Orion entrance began, only to get substituted by radio tuning noises setting the table for an almost forgotten drum beat and crunchy guitars. Spotlights throughout QA pulsed to the beat, and in due time out strolled the Final Woman to make her official return to QCW with the Fifteen Pounds of Gold shining away on her shoulder. Armored Saint's "Hit A Moonshot" lit up the PA as Powers held up the title, setting off a barrage of gold and white pyro all around her on the stage and from the Qualitron.
The lights restored after the pyro was spent, allowing the fans who were going ballistic to get their first live looks at an evolved Powers that still carried Orion with her. She maintained Orion's black undercut with some Final Woman red streaks now in evidence to compliment her leather jacket, scuffed jeans with holey knees and the top she'd worn in the Finals of the Duquesne. Autumn being Autumn, she slapped as many hands as she could while she headed to the ring as "Moonshot" began in earnest:
*♫♪ To get to the cream of the crop is going to take a move like a wild hare
Patronize all night long, yet I'm still full of hot air
Stick and a move and a rat-a-tat-tat and you don't know what's coming
One-sided game of leapfrog, and I keep on jumping! ♫♪*
A chyron in the bottom right corner informed us that this was off of Armored Saint's new album Emotional Factory Reset; an album so new, in fact, that it'd just gotten released earlier today and was available wherever one got their music from nowadays. Autumn sang along as she rounded the corner and got up on the apron...
*♫♪ Man... I hit a moonshot, a moonshot
Right off the yacht... yeah
Girl... I hit a moonshot, the jackpot
Look what I got...! ♫♪*
And right on cue, she hoisted the Fifteen Pounds of Gold to the sky, causing more gold and white pyro to fire up out of the turnbuckles and shower the ringside area. Duck dodged it to hand Autumn the mic, and she thanked him before entering the ring to a rapturous reception. She looked around the arena bathing it all in and she couldn't help but smile at the dueling chants filling the building; half of the crowd chanting "YOU DE SERVE IT!" followed by the other half chanting "AUT UMN POW ERS!" (and to be sure, cameras found more than a few fans chanting both). Autumn took it all In before saying "it's been a long time coming, and it's great to be back!" to even more cheers and chants.
Powers said that she had been waiting far too long to be able to stand in front of the fans as herself and as World champion. She mentioned that after losing to Naz a couple of Anniversaries ago she went to Japan and then Mexico to master more styles, to elevate her game, to turn herself not just into a sharpened point once she stepped between the ropes but the whole damn knife. That's why she became Orion: to prove in her deepest heart she could climb the mountain on her own merits and not just be a champion again but THE Champ again. That got a huge pop from the Quality Controllers, and Autumn continued that the lessons she learned as Orion would carry on both as a patch on her ring gear and why she had the top she wore at the Duquesne Cup Classic final on under her jacket right now. In this reign of the Final Woman there was always somewhere higher to go and she would prove it by being a fighting champion against the best roster in independent North American wrestling today.
Before she left this ring, however, she was going to put several contenders on notice and give flowers to some others. She shouted out Jupiter Jones as someone who helped make QCW what it is today and admitted that while he cast a massive shadow she wasn't going to hide in the darkness - if he wanted a shot at her she wasn't going to hide. She contrasted him with Ig de Catur, who'd had it too good for too long and sucked so bad it'd put Naz and Razorblade into a rad bromance. He might've been able to buy this title last year but Autumn Powers wasn't for sale and none of his goon squad had what it took to keep her down.
And it didn't end there - she saw "Explosive" Emily Bennett doing the work that really mattered when she couldn't be herself and the Punk Queen of Puget Sound sent love and respect from an aging punk to one of the new class. She saw her old friends in Mean Season treading water or worse without her and wondered if she'd been gone too long to make amends (the tease of Mean Season got the crowd buzzing) - but if Gaia and Winter were willing to hear her out she would have apologies for years to those who had supported her for so long.
She knew Nancy, Bonnie and the Hysteria Wolfpack had her in their scope after how she won Sunday night - she knew the likes of old friends like Razorblade and old enemies like Naz were looking to get this belt back around their waists - knew that newcomers like Tre Boyd and Genesis King or stalwarts like Caleb Gray and Ashok Banerjee all had their eyes on her and her title. But they all needed to remember one crucial thing: Autumn Powers was not only back, she was back on top...and you'd have to hit way more than a moonshot to get the Fifteen Pounds of Gold off of her.
Autumn tossed the mic aside and held the World championship up one more time as Armored Saint hit the PA once again. The crowd cheered loudly as Powers made her exit, signing a ringside fan's sign as she went to the back.
From there we went to the announcer desk, where Steve reintroduced and Carl Christensen were holding things down per usual. They hyped up tonight being the fallout from Mayday Payday, including a grudge match between Ashok Banerjee and Hysteria’s Justine Danek as well as a main event showdown between Nazir el-Fadal and the Republic’s Pyotr Caviar before throwing things to Duck Eko in the ring so that the Voice of QCW could make the ring introductions for tonight's opener…
1. “Night Sky” Diana Spare (w/Forbidden Book Club) d. “The Forsaken” Drake Tremble at 4:45 Bounce back win for Spare over the mostly hapless Tremble after the Club went down to the Chosen at MDPD Sunday night. Diana got the win clean with her trusty Nightfall and while Luz Cruz and Shelley LaVey clapped it up for her post match, our announcers wondered what would be next on the docket for Spare and the Club and noticed that despite the snafu at Mayday Payday everything seemed to be fine between Spare and LaVey.
Before the first commercial break tonight, we got a This Week In QCW History segment - on May 20th, 2013 Jupiter Jones won over the Qualitoriun in a hard hitting loss to QCW champion "Jacked" Jared Jarlsberg, using some moves he picked up on his excursion to Japan. Unusually, the segment didn't end there, ending with a voiceover that wondered what would be next for the legendary Jones after getting upset by Nancy Crowley for the Fifteen Pounds of Gold at Mayday Payday…
2. Tre Boyd d. “These Hands” Roy Fade (w/Beast Mode) at 8:22 We came back from the break to QCW’s fastest rising star putting another win in his column despite Fade jumping him at the bell and going after his ribs and kidneys with body blows after the Omar sized chair shots they took in 2300 Sunday night. The man who put the Beast in Beast Mode was ahead on points until Fade did a Matrix bridge counter to avoid Roy and followed it up with a Spanish Fly and stiff legged dropkick to take over control of the bout. It was all one way traffic for the Gospel from there, who hit his majestic Say Hallelujah to get his hand raised.
As Boyd made his celebratory strut up the ramp, the lights went out in Quality Arena. A bright purple light pulsed and suddenly the Qualitron was the only light in QA - Hysteria had taken over the broadcast. Bonnie Agrippa began to speak but Justine Danek cut her off, saying that the last time Ashok Banerjee saw her he couldn't see her and tonight she was gonna – now it was Justine who was getting cut off by Nancy Crowley, who let out an ear piercing scream and began ranting herself.
Bonnie looked on quizzically as Nancy vented, saying she'd beaten the Autumn out of Orion and Jupiter Jones in less than half a month and what had it gotten her?! She beat the National champion; she should be the National champion; she’d had the World championship in her hands not even a week ago. But Commissioner Holmes was being a little bitch about things because she didn't want to hold the Cup when her crown was so much better. Crowley swore she would regain the World championship, said she's the uncrowned National champion and then kept muttering like a mantra that she was the World National champion, that she was the Worst National champion, that she was the World National champion, etc.
Bonnie looked at Nancy with confusion before saying that until her right hand woman got her titles back everyone in QCW was on notice that they would get crushed under Hysteria's heels beginning with Ashok tonight since he was used to trips to the ICU. Holmes would do well to give Nancy the belts she earned before he found out her bite was way, way worse than her bark. If QCW wanted to drive them mad it was far too late for that…now they would go crazy trying to stop the inmates running this asylum. Agrippa snapped her fingers and restored Quality Arena to its factory settings; after a few beats and some looking around, the Voice of QCW Duck Eko hit the ring to make the introductions for our next match…
3. “Cambodian Cool” Keo Tevi (w/”Explosive” Emily Bennett) d. Sohla Patel (w/”Her Excellency” Fiona Fogg) at 6:56 The ladies of Lotus were able to pick on and one up Tevi until Bennett returned and stood side by side with Tevi; the white hats have had them on the run since including in an eight person on Sunday's preshow and in tonight's one on one. Patel has a championship pedigree and acquitted herself well here, yet Keo managed to stay a step ahead throughout. Turning point came when Keo caught a Blockbuster attempt from Sohla and countered it into a oshigoroshi that folded Sohla up like a J-4 off suit. Tevi rolled the rest of the way and polished off Patel with her trademark Psychedelic Shock to secure the dub. Heading into the commercial break, the commentary put over Keo strong as they slapped hands with ringside fans and posed for selfies, saying that there was no reason they couldn't be a champion in QCW some day soon, especially with Bennett having their back. More Ruckus after this…
We came back from the break to “The Old Guard Is Dead” by Ghais Guevara, which meant that the Republic would kick off the back half of the show. The crowd jeered loudly seeing Ig de Catur with a World Tag Team championship belt on each shoulder, surrounded by Republic Enforcement and his goon squad: Pyotr Caviar, Omar Littlefield and the newest convert to Ig’s corrupter corps: Justice Davis. de Catur held the belts up and a barrage of gold and white pyro exploded on the stage while the chyron on the Qualitron confirmed that the Republic were the new World Tag Team champions.
Ig got a mic from Duck Eko and talked over the boos, saying the mouth breathers could hate it all they wanted but the Republic were back in control of the tag titles. He noted that MalicΓa Fernandez had fought so hard to help him….uh, them regain the straps that she’d separated her shoulder in the Iron Team match on Sunday. He offered up thoughts and prayers for MalicΓa, the first soldier to join the Republic. But others had seen the light as she had, and none of them made him more proud than the latest member of the Republic - another man tired of suffering under the Scott Holmes reign of terror - the man who made sure the tag belts were once again property of the Republic: Vengeance Davis! Ig handed the mic over to the rechristened Davis while the crowd erupted into waves of jeering and boos. Davis brought up the mic to speak but immediately got drowned out in a sea of thunderous “YOU SOLD OUT!” chants. Davis scowled and paced the ring a little bit because of that before he brought the mic back up, but this time he wasn't just interrupted by the crowd revolt against him: “Unscripted Violence” hit the PA to a mega pop.
Razorblade came out in streets clothes with a barbed wire wrapped baseball bat in one hand and a mic in the other. The crowd roar died down just long enough for Mason Savage to get out “I don't care what your name is, Davis – you're [Fπ£]ing dead.” Savage threw down the mic and charged the ring, dropping four members of Republic Enforcement with the bat before turning around and getting laid out by a pop up European uppercut from Pyotr Caviar. Razorblade went down in a heap on the floor as all half a dozen members of REnforcement stomped away on Savage, but that wasn't enough for Ig as he yelled at Caviar to use the bat and carve him up. Pyotr picked it up and raked it across Razorblade's forehead until the clarin was flowing while Ig mocked Razorblade on the mic and said that Pyotr would carve up that malcontent Nazir el-Fadal just like that in tonight's main event. Quality Force Security hit the scene to break things up, and as a couple of them tried to help Razorblade up he shoved them away before dodging the medical staff and staggering off to the back with the bat dragging behind him.
Ig continued and blamed Razorblade for the interruption when he came out here to celebrate the Republic regaining the tag belts and their rightful place atop the division. That didn't stop because MalicΓa was on the shelf - on the contrary. de Catur said that with Pyotr busy he was issuing an open challenge right now to any tag team in the division to step up to Omar and Vengeance, who would destroy any team who got placed in front of them tonight. Ig’s revelry was broken up by Drake on the PA, which brought out the Wonderful Ward Brothers and Anton Stahl to a decent reaction.
Jason the Great said that as former champions, seeing a douchebro like Ig trying to buy their old titles made him and his brother sick, so they had a scoop for him: they were going to walk down that ramp, get in that ring and take down Iggie’s glorified hand puppets. The Wards were tired of hearing him run his mouth, these people were tired of hearing him run his mouth (that got a bigger pop), so they were going to give his boys a Wonderful beatdown that came straight from Calgary…Alberta, Canada! Rich grabbed the mic and added a “Yeah!” as a referee moved past them quickly to get to the ring first as they marched down the ramp. de Catur laughed as he left the ring, saying it looked like Canadian bacon was on the menu tonight…
4. The Republic (Vengeance Davis & Omar Littlefield w/Ig de Catur, Pyotr Caviar and Republic Enforcement) d. The Wonderful Ward Brothers (w/Anton Stahl) in an open challenge at 6:57 The Wards hit the ring steaming, and a Pier 4 broke out before the bell rang. It continued afterwards for about half a minute and looked to be ending in the Wards hitting their Cutting Express on Ju–uh–Vengeance only to have Omar Pounce Jason into Rich and sent them flying into each other like bowling pins. The next few minutes saw Omar do everything short of floss with the Wards while Vengeance paced on the apron. After a couple of Vader Bombs and a Face Eraser, Omar tagged in Davis, who hit a reverse fireman’s carry into a nasty piledriver and pinned Jason afterwards. The crowd booed the result as Omar scowled and Vengeance stood over his conquered while Ig clapped him on the back - crowing over his new acquisition and pumping him up, saying that this was only the beginning.
Back at the desk, Steve had an injury report for us couch-bound Quality Controllers. He confirmed what Ig had said about MalicΓa, saying that she should be back in the next few weeks. He then pivoted to preshow footage of Genesis King beating Jacques Krieger and dropping him on his head and neck, compressing his head and neck to put him on the injured reserve. While the medical staff will reassess his condition in 10-14 days, he’s currently listed as being out indefinitely.
A cut to backstage showed his partner Ashok Banerjee looking pensive as he slipped on his orange vest and headed towards the ring - he’ll be facing the woman who blinded him last fall, Hysteria's Justine Danek in her return to singles action - and they’ll face off right after this last commercial break!
5. Ashok Banerjee d. Justine Danek (w/Hysteria) at 8:53 We came back from the break to this grudge match months in the making with Ashok getting a measure of revenge on Justine for blinding him last fall. After a feeling out process saw Ashok get a slight advantage, he missed a springboard crossbody attempt and Justine compounded his mistake by hitting a diving leg lariat to get control of the match. The Lash of Hysteria worked him over and was leading on points when she ducked too soon after an Irish whip and Banjerjee wiped her out with a Destroyer DDT. Clearly rocked by the DDDT, Justine rolled out to the floor and got checked on by the rest of her coven - but a massive tope con hilo from the Boundless One wiped all four women out and had the Quality Controllers going nuts. Ashok dished out as much offense on Justine as she’d dished out earlier and then some, dominating for minutes and hitting a massive Orange Crush bomb. If Danek hadn't been able to grab the bottom rope things would've ended there. Seeing her partner in trouble, Bella Jolie jumped up on the apron to get the referee's attention while Bonnie Agrippa pulled a set of brass knuckles out of her decolletage and headed Justine’s way. However, Agrippa sneezed and then tripped, accidentally catching Justine with the knucks instead. Danek managed to get to her feet while the rest of Hysteria had a three way huddle on the floor about what had just happened. They were so caught up in that talk that they missed Ashok landing the Decolonizer Driver and getting the three count. Ashok wisely rolled out of the ring before the rest of Hysteria could hit it, and he left them to bicker about how their end game had gone full ACME while he got his hand raised by the referee on the ramp.
Ahead of the main event, Steve got the hype train rolling for π« next week's Ruckus π«: Summer Rose will face off against Ashley THEE Influencer Szabo π« rumors are everywhere about what Commissioner Holmes will do about the now vacant National championship and we hope to get some answers next week π« and Justice Davis will have his first singles match since joining the Republic.
Speaking of which, “The Old Guard Is Dead” brought out the Republic and their whole coterie came back out in support of Pyotr Caviar as he marched to the ring with half of the World Tag Team championships on his shoulders. Back in his patron’s good graces, de Catur was at the shoulder of the Tracksuit Tsar hyping him up right until “So Be It” by Clipse took over the PA and flipped jeers to cheers in Parts Unknown. Nazir el-Fadal’s music hit but there was no Naz coming out to it. Ig complained to the referee that Pyotr should win by forfeit, but the ref told him to hold off the had Duck make a second introduction. Clipse again but no Naz again – until a black and gold blur flew into the picture with a springboard dropkick that sent Pyotr stumbling to the outside and had the Republic scattering. Guess who? Naz took off his rugby jersey and threw it at Ig right as the bell rang, then hit the ropes for a follow up. But his try at a tope suicida was greeted by a massive European uppercut from Caviar, delivering a whiplash effect that temporarily turned Naz into a capital C on the floor and had Ig’s annoying laugh back out in full force as the main event began.
6. Pyotr Caviar (w/Ig de Catur, the Republic & Republic Enforcement) d. Nazir el-Fadal at 10:52 Having dropped Naz like a bad habit, Caviar removed his tracksuit and got Naz back into the ring to continue his offense against his long time rival. Pyotr landed a series of clubbing blows across Naz’s back while the announcer team hyped up the Iron Team match at MDPD and hinted we might see it come up as a Match of the Year candidate when we got to the end of ‘26. Naz got out from under a bit and fired off some European uppercuts of his own but Caviar shrugged them off and hit a Russian sickle that has el-Fadal corkscrewing through the air before he crash landed and the now three time tag champion covered him for the first nearfall of the match.
The match took on the flavor of a Pyotr showcase up until Naz ducked a running crossbody and followed it up with his Night Night hiptoss Michinoku Driver that reset the balance of the match a bit and had both men momentarily down on the canvas. Pyotr beat Naz to getting vertical but it was the One Man Jihad who took the lead on offense: stomping on Pyotr’s feet to get him off balance before delivering a cross chop to the throat, then a European uppercut off the ropes made Caviar almost stumble out of the ring. But Naz used that to his advantage, tying Pyotr in the ropes before hitting him with a barrage of European uppercuts until Ig’s asset fell down awkwardly to the mat clutching at his jaw. Caviar stumbled up and ate another cross chop in his Adam's apple, then the self proclaimed Greatest Man Alive got him up on his shoulders and sent him crashing to the canvas with a Hamrin Valley Driver; Pyotr barely shouldered out at the death after a long two count.
Seeing their man in trouble, the Republic went into action to save things for the third generation star. Ig jumped up on the apron to accuse the ref of a fast count, allowing Omar to reach in the ring and grab Naz so he could pull Naz to the floor. Omar pulled Naz up only for the Grand Slam winner to uppercut him where the sun doesn't shine. That helped take Omar temporarily out of the picture but even as Omar was falling Vengeance walked over with a blank.expression on his face. Davis quickly double underhooked Naz and planted him with a double arm DDT before bundling Naz up and tossing him in the ring. Ig finally got down off the apron and said something to Pyotr in Russian, gesturing as an almost out of it Naz was slowly pulling himself off the deck even if a bit of blood was running down his forehead. It took Naz almost the full ten count to get to his feet, less than five for Pyotr to mow him down with a massive running crossbody and exactly three for Pyotr to win the main event.
Steve pointed out the Republic had run a similar play at Mayday Payday and used it to steal back the tag team titles. But the dissection of Naz continued, as all three active members of the Republic stomped away at a barely moving Naz. Ig de Catur even got in a few shots before Repubkic Enforcement started dropping like flies. They were going down to Bolts From Olympus and shots from a barbed wire baseball bat. Both Jupiter Jones and Razorblade had hit the scene and were cleaning house on Republic Enforcement. The faces of QCW cleared a path to the ring and hit it together; coincidentally that was the moment the Republic decided that they’d had their fun and left the ring behind with a bloody Naz in it. Ig and the Republic’s wrestlers got together at the bottom of the ramp as both Jupiter and Mason waved them on to come get in the ring so they could throw hands. But Ig waived it off, saying that the Republic weren't going to let Team Has Been dictate the terms on the playing field. As the show we off the air, it left us with both sides still exchanging smack talk as a bloodied Naz leaned on the ropes to help him get up.
