By Mike Johnson on 2019-04-27 19:06:00

Satoshi Kojima & Yuji Nagata vs. Villain Enterprises' PCO and Brody King

Brody King and Yuji Nagata started out.  King showed his power and couldn't be moved early on.  King shoulderblocked him down.  Nagata nailed some kicks and took King down finally.  Nagata sunk in the Nagata Lock to try and wear him down but King grabbed the ropes.     Kojima and PCO tagged in.  PCO played his unstoppable monster character to the hilt and knocked Kojima to the floor before hitting a crazy tope to the floor.  The crowd chanted for him.

PCO brought Nagata back into the ring, where Villain Enterprises worked Kojima over.  King chopped Kojima so hard he stumbled.  Kojima was worked over for a long time.  They nailed a double suplex on him but Nagata broke up the pinfall attempt.  Nagata finally got the tag and worked over King's arm for a long time.  He went for a Saito Suplex but it was blocked and King blasted him with a lariat.  King and PCO hit a double chokeslam for a two count.   PCO was hit with an enziguiri.  Kojima tagged in and nailed a series of fast chops on PCO in the corner then whipped him into the opposite corner.  He blasted PCO, who went down to the mat, but sat up with authority.

King tagged back in and nailed a big slam and a back senton splash but Nagata broke up the pinfall.    He went for a suplex but Kojima reversed it and nailed a brainbuster.  He covered King but PCO broke it up.  Natata joined the fray.   He and PCO brawled to the floor.  Kojima went for a lariat but was blasted by King, who then hit a sit-down Michinoku Driver for the pin.

Your winners, Villain Enterprises!

Caprice Coleman ran down what was still to come tonight.

Santana Garrett vs. Sienna to crown a new NWA Women's Champion.  Madusa will present the winner with the title belt.

The announcers noted Jazz had to give up the title due to injury.

Madusa came to the ring and cut a promo.  She said she wasn't someone's advocate or insurance policy, but the queen of carnage.  She was the world champion in two different iconic industries and what she is holding is the NWA Women's Championship.  She said the title means a lot within the company and it is with honor and has been enriched with history and tradition.  She said the NWA asked her to be part of this historic occasion.  What she wants to do is present the title to "some amazing women."  She said it goes all the way back to the 1930s to women who have worked their ass off, dilligently hard, trying to pave their way to the women today.    She said there is "no title trashing tonight, this is serious."  She wants to introduce everyone to two women who are passionate about the business, Santana and Sienna.  She said, "Ladies, let's make history."  It felt like Madusa may have missed something and was trying to get back to where she wanted to be in the promo.

They locked up with Allysin Kay backing Santana Garrett into the corner.  They broke clean but Kay struck her.  Kay caught her on the mat and tried to force a submission but Garrett was able to escape.   Kay drilled her in the corner but Santana reversed and nailed a chop but was kicked down.  Garrett went for a wheelbarrow takedown but was caught and slammed face-first into the mat.

Kay twisted her neck, trying to force a submission.  They chopped each other hard and each went for a kick at the same time, knocking the other down.   Kay shoved Garrett's face and dared her to come on.  Garrett pulled herself up and blasted Kay with a big forearm.  Kay sent her into the corner but was nailed as she charged in.  Garrett put together several offensive maneuevers and nailed a version of Eat Defeat.  She nailed a cartwheel handspring elbow in the corner.

Garrett locked in the Muta Lock on Kay.  Kay made it to the ropes.  Garrett nailed a handspring into a rana off the top.  She went for the shining star press but was cut off and nailed by Kay with a lariat for the pin.

Your winner and new NWA Women's Champion Allysin Kay!

Kay snatched the title out from Madusa's hands with the idea that she wanted the moment for herself.

Garrett offered her hand after the match but Kay shoved the belt in her face before walking out.

Solid, OK match.

They aired a video feature on Scurll vs. Aldis.

Caprice Coleman interviewed The Midnight Express, saying it was the first time in 30 years all three members had been together at the same time.  That isn't exactly true, but who cares, it's the freaking Midnight Express!  Bobby Eaton said he's enjoyed being here with his good friends and said Dennis and Stan were great partners.  Stan Lane said he's really from Greensboro, NC and there are no better fans in the world than fans in North Carolina.  Coleman put over Dennis Condrey for beating cancer.  Condrey said he wanted to say thank you to his doctors, all six of them.  Caprice told Condrey he was proud of him and hugged him.  

Back at the announcing desk, Jim Cornette talked about how great it was to have the Express back together again.

SEMI-FINALS: Thom Latimer & Royce Isaacs vs. Flip Gordon & Bandido

Latimer and Gordon started out, with the story being strength vs. speed.  They went back and forth.  Bandido and Isaacs tagged in.  Bandido did a little grandstanding after an escape so Isaacs kicked him in the gut.  Everyone faced off in the ring.  Bandido and Flip Gordon hit stereo superkicks, sending them to the floor.  Madusa, still at ringside, offered Latimer and Isaacs advice before walking out.  Flip and Bandido attacked them on the floor.

Bandido and Gordon double-teamed Isaacs and Bandido.  Gordon was cut off and he was double teamed, as they focused on the knee Gordon had previously injured in the same venue.  They tagged in and out and they continued beating down Gordon in the corner.  They scored several two counts but Gordon kept kicking up and trying to make the tag to Bandido.  He was prevented from making the tag several times.  Isaacs attacked Bandido in the corner, preventing him from being there for a tag.  Isaacs rolled up Gordon and scored the pin.

Advancing to the finals, Royce Isaacs and Thom Latimer!

OK match but nothing out of the ordinary.  The most noteworthy thing was the tease Madusa could be involved with Latimer and Isaacs.

SEMI-FINALS: The Briscoes vs. Villain Enterprises

They faced off and brawled.  PCO nailed a series of chops in the corner on Mark.  Villain Enterprises controlled Mark early on.  PCO was whipped into the corner on Mark.  King then hit a cannonball in the corner.    They nailed their double chokeslam for a two count.

Jay finally made the tag and drilled King with a hangman’s Neckbreaker.  Everyone brawled.  PCO missed his senton off the ropes.  They all brawled on the floor.  King was sent into the barricade.  They sent PCO into the ring post.   They double teamed PCO on the floor with kicks.    Everyone grabbed chairs.    They entered the ring and faced off.

The Briscoes began beating Villain Enterprises with the chairs.  They were DQ’d!

Your winners, advancing to the finals, Villain Enterprises!

Fun battle while it lasted but didn't hold a candle to some of the more crazy brawls these four have had.

The Briscoes attacked the referee and nailed poor Paul Turner with the Jay-Driller.    They attacked PCO and placed a bunch of chairs over his arm and chest.    Mark nailed a swanton on PCO as he was draped on the outside of the apron.  Jay Briscoe cut a promo saying the hell with the Crockett Cup, the fans and Villain Enterprises.
