Samantha Garlande VS Shilo Wagner WINNER: Shilo Wagner
Opening the show for this week were two powerhouse women from completely opposite ends of the spectrum as far as a visual went. Both Samantha Garlande and Shilo Wagner have found themselves talked about by Sherri Linwood as women who would wind up benefitting from her influence and that Shilo Wagner was even a carbon copy of her and her success. This was not taken lightly and Shilo tried to grind that axe with Winnie Cromwell, but Winnie had made a massive example out of Shilo and no one had seen her in weeks since the match. Trying to prove another point that evening, Shilo would take up stakes with Samantha and the two put on a bit of a clinic, showcasing the depth of the Abbott Pro Wrestling women's division. Most people would have thought that the end result would be Samantha being the winner due to her own brute force and brutality but Shilo would pick up a surprise win. The surprise was that she won, but the means in which she did so were not so surprising. Shilo would pick up that win after blasting Samantha square in the face with a closed right fist and then would use wrist tape to choke out Samantha, cleverly hidden under her arm as she had Samantha in a sleeper hold position.
Sherri Linwood segment.
Backstage, Emily Smith was seen approaching Sherri Linwood who seemed busied in her own world with her phone and interrupted what she was doing by asking her for a moment to talk. Sherri had an exasperated sigh and stated she was a busy woman who had a lot going on and to make it quick. Emily followed that up by asking what everyone was wondering and that was why she helped Raya Williams win her match the week prior. There was an incredulous expression on Sherri's face as she stared deadpan at Emily before she answered, "Do I look like I'm insane? Why would I want to face Winnie Cromwell? You've seen what she's done to the women's locker room to get to Raya. I'm not in the market to deal with insane people. But you can definitely thank me for women like her who are prepared to do whatever they have to just to get to where they need to be. It only proves what I say is true. I'm the reason women have all of these opportunities and when I feel like it, I'll grace Abbott Pro Wrestling with my presence and I'll take from Raya what she covets the most." Sherri would walk off on Emily after the fact.
Aleki Mitchell & Mikaele Mitchell VS Daizen Larimore & Rei Kato WINNER: Aleki Mitchell & Mikaele Mitchell
Holding steadfast in their ideals of being the most dominant tag team in this division despite not having the titles to say so, the Mitchell Brothers continued their conquest to prove a point and potentially score a shot at the tag team titles soon as they met up with debuting international talent, Daizen Larimore and Rei Kato who were fresh off of work over in Japan. The match was shockingly back and forth for as dominant as the Mitchell Brothers had been in the past and Rei would almost get a quick roll up pin on Aleki, but he would be interrupted abruptly by Aleki's brother Mikaele. The match was competitive in every way it possibly could be and that showed how hungry everyone seemed to be for opportunity in the division. The Mitchell Brothers would still continue to prove their worth as they picked up another win over the debuting team, but Daizen and Rei had nothing to be ashamed of in their showing.
Jett Smith segment.
Emily Smith was backstage with Jett Smith (absolutely no relation there), Iggy Gabris, and Hank Marshall, Jett seemingly beside himself as he pace back and forth. Emily then posed the question to Jett about what happened in his match against Lindsey Taylor last week and how he was since handling it. Jett started to yell almost incoherently about how that match was pure and utter bullshit and should never have happened. It was a fluke and would never, ever happen again. Before he could get any further, the laughter of people who entered the frame occurred and we would see Ezra Fitzherb, Lindsey Taylor, and Percy Lupton coming into view, igniting more of a tense situation. Lindsey challenged Jett about how he could say anything was bullshit when he was too busy snoring on the mat when Lindsey won the match the week before. Jett snapped at the fellow British man and said if he was so tough, why doesn't he and his beanpole bitch boyfriend who dragged him into this prove it by facing Iggy and Hank next week since he knew the little shit wolf wasn't cleared to compete. Ezra nonchalantly would respond before Lindsey could by stating, "Actually, we're married, you bellend." and held up Lindsey's left hand showing off a beautiful wedding ring before dropping it, making Lindsey break with a laugh, only to get Jett in Lindsey's face asking if he thought this was a joke, only to get pushed back by Lindsey who said if he wants a fight no matter who with, they fully accept and they'll see them next week.
Akasha Corrigan w/ Erik Grim VS Karleigh Pierce WINNER: Karleigh Pierce
There was an interesting buzz surrounding Akasha Corrigan and Erik Grim going into tonight's show after the week prior's statement made by the trio of Charity Sully, Archer Thorn, and Eric Drahken. Instead of facing things head-on, she took up a challenge instead from Karleigh Pierce who was ready and raring to go after picking up a surprise win the week before herself. Despite a strong showing last week, Karleigh did not have as good of a time this week as most of the match was dominated by Akasha. This would be up until the lights went out and the fans lost their minds wondering what was going on. When the lights came back up, Akasha and Erik were both laid out, Karleigh splayed on top of them not looking any better than they were, and the referee counted this as a pin and gave Karleigh another shock win, leaving fans to speculate on what had happened.
Harvey Grove VS Mystery Opponent (Eliminator Open Challenge) WINNER: Harvey Grove
On social media, Harvey Grove took to issuing an eliminator open challenge to anyone from anywhere that wanted a shot at him to qualify for a chance to face him for the title at a future event. He wanted to know who was hungry and determined enough to do the things he did to get to where he was, and he didn't care who took him up on this challenge. The challenge would be met by a surprising appearance from Wyatt Marshall, whom wrestling fans hadn't seen in quite some time. This created a buzz about the fans who were not expecting to see Wyatt show up at all. He wasn't even a name on the lips of anyone. You could cut the atmosphere with a knife as the two sized one another up. The match itself went hard, completely and utterly exceeding any expectations anyone could ever have. Blood was spilled, to the surprise of no one watching a match with Harvey involved. Both men bled, both men saw vicious shots between one another, and both men would nearly get the pinfall or submission at various stages of the match. The match nearly exceeded the time limit but would come in under the minute mark with Harvey picking up the win after a brutal death rider on the apron, crushing Wyatt's surprise return.
Ryder Evans w/ Bastian Ravenshaw VS Jason D'Masi w/ Ashley Sharpe WINNER: Jason D'Masi The new and hot feud between four young men in Abbott Pro Wrestling had continued this week and headlined the show in the main event where Ryder Evans would face Jason D'Masi one on one. Presumably. The match itself would start out strong between the two men and for quite a while was a bit of a back and forth endeavor until Jason swatted Ryder down viciously and capitalized, making it harder for the more high flying of the two to really get anywhere in the match. Not that he needed any help, but, Ashley stuck his nose into things not soon after that and would put the boots to Ryder when the referee wasn't looking, sparking a reaction from Bastian who chased him into the back, but it was unfortunately too late for Ryder who would lose the match to Jason a few power moves later, leaving the big guy to look stronger than he normally did, closing the show out to a chorus of boos.
