OPENING SEGMENT
After The Porter Games video package gets done playing, The pyro goes off inside the LA Coliseum in Los Angeles California as a sold-out crowd goes wild in the stadium as they chant TPG over and over again until the big screen lights up saying The Porter Games and showcase all the matches from round one and replays the victories of Chris Page closing the casket on Goth, Peter Vaughn defeating Max Stone in a thriller, Ned Kaye knocking off Fenix, Hendrix beating Bryan Williams in a bloody war, Liam Vaughn pulling off the upset and knocking off the monster Enigma, Baal showing the world he’s still got it at a legendary status and in the round one Main Event Larry Tact knocked off Joe Montuori in a steel cage match.
After the hard cam switches to the ring where XWF part Owner Theo Pryce, TPW Terry Marshall, WGWF General Mange Candice Page, OWA CEO/ Chairman Scott Oasis and the host of The Porter Games Denzel Porter himself stands center stage with a microphone in his hand.
Denzel Porter: City of LA and wrestling fans watching around the World are you ready for ROUND TWO OF THE PORTER GAMES?!!!
THE FANS GIVE A LOUD YES CHAT!!!!!
Denzel smiles brightly and waits for the fans to settle back down.
Denzel Porter: Round one we saw some amazing matches with outstanding finishes that left the world in awe of what the competitors displayed but out of the 16 only eight remain and those eight have proven to be among the best in the world but now those eight are about to go to war in these second round matches up and see who can push themselves closer to the ultimate goal.
Candice Page the General Manager of WGWF steps up with a microphone in her hand.
Candice Page: And after WGWFs successful two night Cannabis Cup event it should be a no brainer that the winner of this tournament should be choosing to come challenge for the most prestigious Championship on this planet! The WGWF World Heavyweight Championship, because why would you challenge for second best?
Candice looks over at the other representatives with a smirk.
Candice Page: When you can challenge for the best!
Candice walks back towards the group as OWA CEO/ Chairman Scott Oasis steps forward with his own microphone in his hand.
Scott Oasis: I'm going to keep this short and sweet. OWA doest need to take shots at other promotions because we are above that and have proven we are among the very best promotions out there and if the winner wants to stand out like we do then come to OWA and see if you can best our Champion to become our Champion.
Scott walks back to the group of representatives as TPW Owner Terry Marshall steps forward flexing his 20 inch pythons as he gets the fans hype before taking the microphone.
Terry Marshall: I'm going to give you the facts brother! Thunder Pro Wrestling has been thriving and we are on the rise to becoming the very damn best wrestling promotion in the world and the proof is the tournament because we've featured five of the 16 talents in here and we have three remaining of the final eight. So to whoever wins The Porter Games, come challenge for the TPW International Championship if you want to be immortalized.
Terry flexes his 20-inch pythons again before moving back to the group of representatives as part owner of XWF Theo Pryce steps forward.
Theo Pryce: I'll admit we got some impressive wrestling promotions part of this tournament, each one offering you something different from the other but let me tell you what separates XWF from the other three brands our legendary legacy, any big name you know today has competed in the XWF and made their name in our ring. That goes from James Raven, Shawn Warstein, Chris Page, ALIAS and so on.
Becoming the XWF Universal Champion is as prestigious as it gets in the business, despite what some would say about is today, we are still the measuring stick that everyone wants to be, so whoever wins this tournament just know the real challenge is in the XWF!
Theo returns back to group of representatives with a confident smirk on his face as Denzel Porter takes back over.
Denzel Porter: Well you heard what the representatives of these great promotions had to say, it's clear each one offers a unique challenge and prestigious Championship opportunity for the winner of The Porter Games and after tonight we will be one more step closer to seeing who that winter will be and which Champion will be challenged. So with that said, let ROUND TWO OF THE PORTER GAMES BEGIN!!!!
Match One
TPG Round Two
Standard Singles Match
Chris Page vs Larry Tact
Denzel Porter: Round Two of The Porter Games is about to begin and it's going to be an instant classic between two Competitors who are no strangers to each other, it's that right Terry Marshall.
Terry Marshall: That's correct brother, Page, and Tact spent the majority time of this year feuding over the TPW International Championship, both times Tact walked away victorious.
Denzel Porter: I guess it's safe to say that Chris Page is ecstatic that Tact was able to get pass Jmont, so that he could get another shot at Tact and possibly redeem himself.
Terry Marshall: He very well could Porter but Larry Tact has already proven twice that he can best Page and a third time would shut the door on any what ifs in my opinion.
"In the Face of Evil" by Magic Sword reverberates over the PA. Row after row, aisle to aisle, the THUNDERAMANIACS rise to their feet throughout the arena and cheer, the beating heart of TPW about to burst!
As the second, third, and fourth chords of the theme reverberate, three spotlights shine down, one over another: A green circle, a gold triangle over it, and a crimson line intersecting the other two. On the Terry-Tron, his monikers cycle through one after another:
TACTILIZING ONE
GAME CHANGER
SAGE OF THE SQUARED CIRCLE
From there, the beat triggers the house lights to illuminate the figure of the former International Champion himself, Larry Tact, standing on stage, his golden blonde locks hanging loosely over his face.
Mister Big Ticket: Making his way to the ring, weighing in at 260lbs, from Manhattan, New York I give you Larry Tact.
Larry whips his hair up and trudges to one side of the stage, firing up the fans by throwing his arms in the air at them. He then goes to the other side of the stage and beats his chest before opening his arms to the reaction of the THUNDERAMANIACS, who hoot and holler back. "This is our company!" Larry bellows as his arms point around at the crowd. He then returns to center stage and makes his way down to the ring, pounding fists with some fans at ringside before hanging onto the middle rope and pulling himself up onto the apron.
He turns and faces the stands, opening his arms up and making a ‘T’ shape, puffing his chest out. Wiping his boots on the apron, Tact proceeds into the ring. He climbs a turnbuckle and again holds his arms out. “WE ARE TPW STRONG!!” he exclaims to another pop before descending and making his final preparations for the match.
Denzel Porter: Larry looks focused and ready to prove any doubters that his wins over Page are anything but flukes.
Terry Marshall: Tact wants to handle his business with Page and put their rivalry in the rear view mirror and move one step closer to the grand prize.
*BELL RINGS*
Tact and Page square off in the center of the ring. The prospect of these two stellar competitors going one-on-one means that the LA Coliseum is filled with a heap of anticipation and excited energy from the sold-out crowd. A tact has a slight height advantage but it’s barely noticeable as the two Thunder Pro Wrestling members go face-to-face. They trash-talk a little to begin with, both with smirks on their faces before it descends into a full-blown slugfest. Both men give no quarter, laying into each with a flurry of rights and lefts. Soon, Tact begins to get the upper hand on Page, staggering him with continuous right hands, to the point Page is backed up onto the ropes. Tact wraps his around Page’s forearm and sends him for an Irish whip and runs off the ropes himself, catching Page up underneath the chin with a high knee. The impact of patella to chin rocks Page slightly and he instinctively reaches up to it with one of his hands. Tact follows it up with a short-arm clothesline that rocks Page again but Tact doesn’t let go, keeping his grip firmly on Page’s forearm. Tact with another short-arm clothesline, the impact of forearm to chest creating a loud slap. Tact keeps up the momentum with a gut-wrench suplex, showing great strength to deadlift Page from a standing position and slam him down hard. Tact goes for a cover, the first one of the match, hooking one of Page’s legs as the referee is down to make the count.
One…!
Two…!
But Page powerfully kicks out, immediately sitting up, shaking his head in frustration.
Denzel Porter: Page almost let history repeat itself right there.
Tact grabs Page by the top of the head, looking to pull him up to his feet but as Page gets to one knee, he buries a hard punch straight into the midriff of Tact that catches him off-guard for a moment. Another big punch from Page to the breadbasket as he fights back to his feet. A forearm smash to the jaw followed by a European uppercut finds their target. Page with a hard knife-edge chop elicits a thunderous smacking sound as the ridge of his head makes contact with Tact’s chest. Tact grimaces from the connection. Page goes back downstairs with a couple of kicks before grabbing Tact and lofts him overhead with an impressive t-bone suplex. Page follows up very quickly, snatching Tact by the neck, pulling him up into a front face lock and hoists him up as if going for a suplex but instead drills Tact down onto the top of his head with a Cradle DDT. Tact clutches the top of his head in pain, his face scrunched up in an expression of discomfort but Page keeps his own momentum shift, waylaying into Tact’s face with a couple of haymakers from a squatted position over him before he locks him in a painful STF. Page wrenches back on Tact’s neck and face with his clasped hands whilst keeping his legs locked in place. The referee is down in front Tact, checking for any signs of a verbal submission or a tap-out. However Tact gives no such indications that he is done in this match yet.
Resigning himself to Tact not tapping, Page actively relinquishes the STF but before driving a hard elbow down across the back of Tact’s neck. Page goes over to the nearest corner and hoists himself up onto the second turnbuckle, leaping off, going for a diving headbutt but Tact scoots out of the way at the last moment, and Page’s face and forehead hits nothing but canvas. He holds his face in pain and the momentary reprieve gives Tact an opportunity to swing the tide back in his favor. He climbs to one knee, grabbing Page, pulling him by his chin and shows incredible strength to haul him onto the back of his shoulders and slams him down hard with a lung-busting “Tactilizer” (Torture Rack Spinout Powerbomb). Tact, pins Page’s shoulders to the mat with his outstretched legs from the spinout powerbomb and the referee goes to count.
One…!
Two…!
Thr-...!
Terry Marshall: Tact might be learning quickly that this time it is going to take a lot more to keep Page down for a three count this time around.
Denzel Porter: Chris Page is refusing to let Tact get him for a third time in a row.
No! Page kicks out, shoving his shoulder off the mat just in time. Page rolls onto his front, rising to all fours and he looks like he’s had the wind knocked out of him from the powerbomb he just took. Taking advantage of his positional placement, Tact swiftly locks in a Jigoku Jime - a judoka submission hold that traps the arms and neck whilst attempting to choke out the opponent. Tact tenses his bicep underneath Page’s chin, wrenching back tightly. Page tries his best to press his chin to his chest as much as he can as to prevent Tact from locking the chokehold in to its full extent. The referee again is right there in position, trying to check for any signs of Page being choked out but he gives every indication he’s still conscious, fighting to repel Tact’s arm around his throat as best he can. Eventually, he manages to use his great ring awareness, to maneuver his feet around and wraps them around the bottom rope and the referee immediately calls for Tact to let go and he duly does so. Page’s neck looks slightly inflamed from the chokehold attempt from Tact as he pulls himself using the nearby set of ring ropes for assistance. Tact comes running at him, going for a big clothesline but Page ducks at the eleventh hour, avoiding the contact and comes roaring back with a jaw-cracking Judas Effect spinning elbow that staggers Tact, putting him on spaghetti legs. He grabs Tact from behind in a rear waist lock and pushes him chest-first into the opposite turnbuckle, keeping a hold of his grip and rolls back, showing incredible core strength to lift Tact up and over with an impressive rolling German suplex, even going as far as to maintain a bridge, balancing on the top of his head and the tips of his toes. The referee counts!
One…!
Two…!
Thr-...!
Terry Marshall: Larry Tact said not so fast!
Denzel Porter: No redemption for Page and, Tact is still alive in this tournament.
Nearfall! Tact somehow thrusts a shoulder off the mat at the last second. Page sensing he’s back in the ascendancy, grabs Tact face-on, like a bearhug and goes for a belly-to-belly suplex but Tact counters, not allowing Page to suplex him and lands back on his feet before improvising with a shoulder thrust into Page’s neck and jaw. Tact grabs Page from behind in a full nelson and lifts him for a full nelson slam but Page this time kicks his legs out, blocking the slam attempt from Tact. He rolls his shoulders up, trying to break free of Tact’s grip but he tenaciously holds on. Page then stomps down hard onto the top of Tact’s boot with the heel of one of his own that reflexively causes Tact to let go. Page uses this to his advantage, turning around and grabs Tact by the back of head, jumping up and pulling him down, driving his knees into his face with a textbook Codebreaker. He goes for the cover as the referee counts.
One…!
Two…!
No, another nearfall! Tact stays in it, kicking out. Page goes Tact, pulling him down in a reverse face lock and transitions into a dragon sleeper, using his momentum to bring Tact down to the mat and he grapevines his legs around Tact’s body too for extra leverage. Tact doesn’t give in though and refuses to tap. He somehow musters enough strength to pull himself forward and onto his knees with Page still clinging to him like a 6 foot, 4-inch rucksack on his back. Tact manages to wrestle Page’s arm free of his neck, fighting out of the dragon sleeper and hoists him up onto his shoulder before taking him down to the mat with a ring-shaking running powerslam. He goes for a makeshift cover.
One…!
Two…!
Denzel Porter: Back and forth these two gladiators go, neither giving up.
Terry Marshall: This one is going to come down to who makes the wrong move first.
But Page kicks out again! The crowd are cheering loudly for the efforts being put on display by both men and the back-and-forth nature of this competitive second round match of The Porter Games. Tact grabs Page up and nails him with “The Humbling” uranage suplex, showing great strength to lift Page high into the air before drilling him back down again with one of his signature moves. He pulls Page back to his feet and brings his head between his legs, looking around at the fans. They sense what’s coming as Tact lifts Page into the air, setting him up for the “Starbreaker” but before he can execute the second part of the move, Page, out of desperation, hammers a series of elbows to the top of Tact’s head and he stumbles back. Page lands on his feet. Page grabs Tact, hoisting him up and driving back down with authority with a spinebuster slam. The fans in attendance have that move from Page before and know what’s coming next. He quickly gets back to his feet, pulling Tact into a double underhook position, lifting him and drills him face-first with the “Page Plant”. He turns Tact over and makes the cover, hooking both legs as the referee counts!
One…!
Two…!
Three!!
*BELL RINGS*
Terry Marshall: Holy Shit!
Denzel Porter: Chris Page just pulled off another redemption story to punch his ticket to the semi-finals of The Porter Games.
Mister Big Ticket: Here is your winner by pinfall and moving on to the semi-finals fo The Porter Games, CHRIS PAGE!!!!!
Chris Page lets the referee raise his hand in victory and then rolls out of the ring with a smirk on his face as he walks backward up the ramp, staring down Larry Tact as he makes it up to his feet and shakes his head.
Denzel Porter: Not the result Larry was looking for but no shame at all in losing here tonight, he pushed Page to his limit and made him work for this win.
The fans give Larry a standing ovation as he exits the ring.

TPG Round Two
Standard Singles Match
Ned Kaye vs Brandon Hendrix
Denzel Porter: Up next is the battle of underdogs as both men know what it's like to be doubted and counted out of a fight but as they both showed last week they have a lot of heart and fight in them and very soon we are going to find out who wants it more, who has more motivation to make it tot he semi-finals.
Theo Pryce: These two pulled off upsets in each of their matches and put the world on notice but now they have to dig deep to knock the other off tonight, we are about to find out who the ultimate underdog truly is.
The arena flashes white as spotlights from around the venue converge at the entrance room as "You Know My Name" begins playing bombastically. As the lyrics start, Ned Kaye stands at the point where the spotlights merge to thunderous applause. He lifts his fist up in the air, awaiting the crowd to do the same before rushing down to the ring, serenaded by blue hues that light up the ramp following his steps. The lights above the stadium darken in their blue color as Ned gets closer to the ring, little bits of ember adorning the X-Tron and ramp, orange breaking up the blue.
Mister Bug Ticket: Makig his way to the ring at a weight of 224lbs , from New York City, NY(Brooklyn), I give you Ned Kaye!!!!
He leaps over the ropes into the ring before looking down, breathing the moment in, and pointing out at the crowd, ready to fight just with their energy alone. Jumping a bit from the adrenaline, he makes his way to his corner as he prepares for the bell.
FEMALE:
"Ladies and Gentlemen, Ragazzi e ragazze di tutte le età. You're in witness to the highest peak of Italian Heritage to grace your television sets in the history of Omega Alliance Wrestling. He stands at six foot six inches tall and weighs in at this time at duecentosessantacinque libbre. He is the highest ranked of the Antoniano Family. He is Don Hendrix."
{Sicilian Heart starts playing, the music of the Mafia introduces the Mobsters of the Antoniano Family: leading first is the main muscle of the group.
Standing at six foot and five inches tall and weighs in at two hundred and seventy pounds is Tony Antoniano. Coming in on both sides are the twins of the operations, the wild cards: Matteo and Marco Antoniano. Both standing at six foot and three inches tall, and weighs in at a combined four hundred and sixty nine pounds. And last is the second in command. Standing at six foot and three inches tall and weighs in at two hundred and twenty pounds, forty four year old wrestling veteran Angelo Caito.}
IL NANO
Di qualsiasi razza o religione
Non si fa assolutamente distinzione
Segui comunque anche se non capisci il pallone
Non ti interessa il calcio ok dunque
Non ce ne frega un c....segui comunque
Qui restiamo bomber anche oggi come ieri
Come ibra come gullit come Vieri
{'Japr L'ekk' by IL NANO and DESTINY kicks in as Caito steps to the side and so does Tony which leaves the middle opened for the head of the Antoniano Family, the Don himself: Don Hendrix. Hendrix walks past the curtain and into the spotlight, standing in the middle of his hired guns, his eyes glancing around the crowd.
Angelo then walks behind him then Tony stands in front of Hendrix, protecting him from the dangers the fans can bring him. Hendrix taps on Tony' shoulder, signaling he's ready to move, so Tony Antoniano takes point in leading the group, making sure his boss is safe as they make their way down to the ring. Matteo and Marco brush fans hands away from touching Hendrix and Angelo in the back walks behind Hendrix in case someone tries something when Hendrix can't see them.
Mister Big Ticket: Making his way to the ring at the weight of 250lbs, from Hollywood, Florida , I give you The Don Brandon Hendrix!!!!!!!
The men make their way to the ring before stopping at ringside and the Don tells the Brother's to go up first. Matteo and Marco walk up the steel steps and Marco enters the ring while Matteo stays on the outside. Both men sit on the middle rope and raises the top rope, and that's when Don Hendrix walks up the steel steps and steps between the ropes. Marco exits the ring and Matteo gets off the edge of the ring and all four men surround the ring, leaving Hendrix to stand in the middle of the ring. Hendrix scales the crowd before spreading his arms out slowly…..}
'Don' Hendrix: (W/O Mic) "Bow…. To The Don."
{Hendrix throws his arms up and the fireworks come. The stage and each corner of the ring starts blasting fireworks as Hendrix keeps his arms up as his family stand on the outside, arms crossed. The Don lowers his arms down and the fireworks stop. Hendrix walks to the corner of the ring as his theme song ends.}
Denzel Porter: Both these men are ready to go to war and punch their ticket to the semi-finals.
*BELL RINGS*
Once the bell rings, both men present much different exteriors. Ned Kaye looks deep in thought, bouncing on the balls of his feet, moving around the ring, like he’s trying to figure out a puzzle, staring at Hendrix. In stark contrast, the Don looks calm and collected, a wry smile on his face as he looks across at his much smaller opponent as he walks casually and confidently around the ring. The two come to the center of the ring and Hendrix attempts to go for a traditional lock up but Kaye grabs one of Hendrix’s extended arms and twists it with an arm wringer before Hendrix forcefully shoves him off, sending Kaye back a considerable amount. He runs his hand through his hair for a moment, reassessing his next move. Hendrix flexes his arm that gut wrung, an expressionless look on his face. He advances on Kaye, feinting a couple of times, gauging Kaye’s reactions. Kaye, out of nowhere runs at Hendrix almost like a spear/takedown attempt, pushing Hendrix into one of the corners. He rams several hard shoulder thrusts into his midsection before attempting an Irish whip into the diagonally-opposite corner. However this is folly on the part of Kaye as the bigger and stronger Hendrix easily reverses the polarity, sending Kaye hard into the opposite turnbuckle.
Denzel Porter: Hendrix showing off that power game that Ned will have to overcome.
Theo Pryce: Ned has been taking on larger opponents his whole career, he'll adjust like he always has.
Hendrix comes running in for a big boot but Kaye spots him coming in and cracks him in the shoulder and neck with a step-up enziguri. The connection catches Hendrix unawares and he wobbles at a bit, trying to regain his footing from his big boot attempt. Kaye cracks Hendrix with a couple of forearm shots to the face until Hendrix showcases his power, a pissed-off expression etched across his face as he grabs Kaye by the throat and launches him with ease into the adjacent corner. Hendrix unloads with a combination of jabs that jar Kaye in the jaw, whipping his head back as each enclosed fist connects with his face. He follows up with a series of hard forearm smashes, dazing his smaller opponent.
Denzel Porter: Hendrix is overwhelming Ned with this high-power offense!
Hendrix then proceeds to wrap his hand around Kaye’s forearm and sends him for a hard Irish whip, catching upon his return with a painful tilt-a-whirl backbreaker before jamming a sharp elbow right into Kaye’s sternum as he’s splayed across Hendrix’s knee. Kaye arches his back in pain and as he tries to clamber back to his feet, he’s hastily assisted by Hendrix who takes him right back down with a good old-fashioned big boot straight to the face. He forcefully guides him back to the feet, gripping him by the back of the head along with a handful of hair which the referee warns him about. Hendrix Irish whips Kaye again and lowers his head for a back body drop but Kaye stops in his tracks, anticipating, nailing him in the chest with a stiff kick that forces him back to a vertical base. He reaches up to hit Hendrix in the face and neck with a couple of forearm shots before nailing him with a leg sweep that catches Hendrix off-guard, wobbling him down to one knee. Kaye follows up with a beautifully-flighted dropkick to the face that continues to stagger Hendrix but still doesn’t take him down. He steps back and shuffles forward with a superkick but still the big man stays one one knee, swaying like a tree being chopped down. Kaye builds up a head of steam, running off the ropes and explodes into a “Notorious Knee” that finally takes Hendrix down, sending him sprawling onto his back. Kaye then puts on the exclamation point on his sequence with a double foot stomp before going for the first cover of the match.
One…!
Two…!
Theo Pryce: I sure thought Ned had it right there.
Denzel Porter: So do I buy Hendrix isn't going down without a fight.
But Hendrix powerfully kicks out. He pinches the top of the bridge of his nose, shaking his head a bit, trying to shake the cobwebs off as he gets back to one knee. Kaye is keen to maintain his positive momentum and runs off the ropes again, jumping up and going for a spinning heel kick but as he throws his leg round for the kick, Hendrix shows great ring awareness to catch him mid-flight and sends him flying overhead with a fallaway slam. Hendrix looks even more pissed off now, checking his lip for any signs of blood from Kaye’s earlier offense before going back on the attack. He aggressively hauls Kaye back to a vertical base, wrapping his arms around and again sending him for a ride like he was an empty bag of chips with a belly-to-belly toss. Again, he grabs Kaye up once more, throwing him like a ragdoll into the corner before engulfing him with a running corner body splash. Kaye staggers out of the corner, disoriented and is caught up in Hendrix’s massive arms, hoisted into the air and dumped back down, driven hard into the mat with a spinning spinebuster. Hendrix goes for his first cover attempt of the match.
One…!
Two…!
Theo Pryce: Now it's Ned with the no give up attitude.
Denzel Porter: These two underdogs refusing to go away, this is going to come down to who doesn't make the big mistake.
But this time it’s Kaye showing his own tenacity by kicking out after a hard flurry of offense from the OWA stalwart. Kaye puffs his cheeks out, trying to get some breath back in his lungs but Hendrix is all over him again. He picks him up, forcing him back to his feet and wraps him in a pumphandle set-up but before he can slam him back down, Kaye manages to adjust his position, reversing into a sitout shiranui which gets a big cheer from the crowd for Kaye’s innovation. Kaye pulls back on Hendrix’s legs for a makeshift cover and the referee is down to make the count.
One…!
Two…!
Denzel Porter: Hendrix refusing to go away.
But Hendrix again powers out. Kaye continues his attack though, running at Hendrix who is still prone on the mat and can’t recover in time to avoid a standing shooting star press from Kaye, eating the move right into his ribs. Hendrix tries to create some distance by rolling under the bottom rope and out to the floor but doesn’t bank on Kaye following him out. Kaye holds on to the top rope with both hands and uses them to launch himself into the air to the outside where he lands with his legs around Hendrix’s neck, taking him down on the hard flooring with “The Disciplinary Action”. Kaye pumps himself up, pounding his chest which again receives a big pop from the crowd as he goes back to Hendrix who is holding his neck and head in pain after being planted by Kaye’s trademark makeshift hurricanrana. Kaye manages to haul Hendrix back to his feet and nails him with a couple of forearm shots and kicks to the midsection. Kaye then backs up a bit and runs toward Hendrix at full speed but out of nowhere eats an explosive “Patrimonio Italiano” spear, sending him starfished onto the floor. Hendrix, still tentatively holding the back of his head with one of his hands, picks Kaye back up and throws him back into the ring under the bottom rope. He rolls back in after him and goes for a cover.
One…!
Two…!
Thr-...!
Theo Pryce: Ned so damn resilient!
Kaye again shows great intestinal fortitude by kicking out. Hendrix grabs Kaye up from behind and locks in his trademark sleeper hold, the “Il Don”. Kaye flaps and flails around, trying his best to let the big man’s power overwhelm him. As Hendrix gets Kaye to one knee, he suddenly uses a burst of energy to springboard up and sit back out as he comes back down, jacking Hendrix’s chin on the top of his head with a clever improvised jawbreaker to free himself from Hendrix’s clutches. Kaye coughs slightly and holds his neck for a moment, his throat looking a bit red from the sleeper hold. But he shakes it off, running at Hendrix and catches him square in the face with a bicycle kick filled with precision that torques at Hendrix’s neck and snapping his head round. Kaye sights his target from behind him to make sure Hendrix is in the right position before hand-springing against the ropes, bouncing back and he hits Hendrix with the Coffin Nails cutter to another cheer from the Los Angeles crowd.
Kaye goes for another cover but Hendrix’s arm is already under the bottom rope and the referee points this out, rendering any subsequent count null and void. Kaye looks frustrated but tries to brush it off, getting back into the swing of the match. He nails a couple of knee drops into Hendrix’s shoulder as he tries to climb to his feet. Kaye runs the ropes and goes for a step-up enziguri but this time Hendrix gets his hands up to block it. He pushes Kaye hard into the corner, his back bucking off the middle and top turnbuckles. Kaye clutches his back in pain but has no time as Hendrix again comes charging in and gets absolutely decimated by a big corner splash. Kaye staggers out again, clutching his ribs but is met with another “Patrimonio Italiano” that wipes him out. Hendrix isn’t done though. He grabs Kaye back to his feet again and spikes him with the “La mia famiglia” Double Arm Piledriver. He makes the cover, hooking both of Kaye’s legs as the referee counts.
One…!

Peter Vaughn vs Sean Parker
Denzel Porter: Up next is a clash of styles and also a David vs Goliath story folks, Sean Parker looks to pick up a statement win by knocking a legend in the pro wrestling industry when he takes on Peter but Peter is here to show the world that its business as usual and isn't ready to pass the torch yet.
Candice Page: Peter definitely wants to prove that he is still among the top tier in the pro wrestling world, especially after losing the WGWF World Heavyweight Championship sunday night, so it is safe to say hes coming intot his tournament with such much motivation and Parker be prepared for the fight Peter is going to give him.
Ken’s Theme [Metal Cover]” by ToxicxEternity starts to play throughout the arena. As the song plays its slow, building intro, Sean Parker appears on the stage in a hooded waistcoat. He goes down on one knee, his head low as sparks fill the stage area. When the song explodes into life, Sean leaps to his feet, his arms outstretched and his hood falls back behind him.
Mister Big Ticket: Masking his way to the ring at 215lbs, from Dunfermline, Scotland by way of Pasadena, California, I give you The King Of The Skies Sean Parker!!!!!!
The lights in the arena go out, causing the usual hysteria from the crowd. After a few seconds, Peter Vaughn's face appears on the big tron, darkly smirking down at the fans.
[align=center]"This Time... It's Different."[/align]
After Vaughn finishes speaking, he begins to laugh.
His laughter carries on as the Tron video overtakes his image, beginning with "This Time It's Different" by Evans Blue. Sparks begin to erupt around the stage, showering nearby fans who feel like they're a little too close to the action. As the fireworks die down, a figure appears through the smoke and haze. Peter Vaughn walks forward wearing his dark blue gear, with the TPW International Championship wrapped around his waist.
Mister Big Ticket: Making his way to the ring at a weight of 185lbs, from Dallas, Texas he is the TPW International Champion Peter Vaughn!!!!!
He stops at the top of the ramp, surveying the negative reaction from the crowd. From his reaction, you'd think they were chanting his name, as he walks down the aisle with a cocky smile. He rolls into the ring, ready for whatever comes next.
*BELL RINGS*
Denzel Porter: Here we go, will it be the legend or the breakout star that punches their ticket to the semi-finals!
As soon as the bell rings Parker explores out of his corner with a missile drop kick to the chest of Peter, sending him into the corner and starts hitting him with a combination of punches to the head and kicks to his leg, trying to break the bigger of the two down to size, Parker then backs up and rushes forward into Peter, driving his shoulder into his midsection and then as Peter staggers out of the corner and leans over , Parker hits a snapp DDT but keeps his hold on Peter and lifts him up again for a falcon arrow suplex!
Denzel Porter: Parker is bringing the fight straight to the TPW International Champion right now.
Candice Page: Peter finds himself on the defensive side right now and needs to find a way to counter this fast-paced offense by Parker.
Parker hits a standing moonsault on top of Peter and then jumps back up and climbs up to the top turnbuckle and goes for another moonsault but Peter rolls out of the way and Parker manages to land on his feet but eats a nasty big boot as he lifts his head up. Peter doesn'tdoesn't let up though as he follows up with an elbow drop to the back of Parker and then bounces off the ropes and comes back to drop a leg drop across the neck and back of Parker. Peter lifts Parker up to his feet and hits him with a stiff shot to the head and Parker stumbles backwards towards the ropes and Peter goes to follow up with a close line but Parker ducks and pulls the ropes down and Peter falls over and down to the floor. Parker waits for Peter to make it to his feet before using the ropes to repel himself over and hit a crossbody on top of Peter and then rains down punches to the head.
Denzel Porter: These two keep changing the tide of this match, back and forth with the action but right now its Parker in control.
Candice Page: This kid Parker is opening up a lot of eyes right now but the question is , can he get the job done and pull off the upset?
Parker lifts Peter up and hits him with a series of chops to the chest and then trys to sling him into the barricade. Still, Peter holds his weight down and reverses it, bringing Parker towards him and nails him with an elbow to the face and then sends Parker into barricade. Still, Peter keeps up the assault as he delivers a combination of punches, striking Parker in the midsection and then going up top with an uppercut to drop Parker down to the floor. Peter rolls back inside the ring to break up the referee count and then rolls back out to lift Parker back to his feet and up on his shoulder, Peter then drops him face first onto the barricade and then rolls him back inside the ring and immediately goes for the three count.

KICKOUT!!!
Sean gets the shoulder up but Peter doesn't give him any time to recover as he lifts Parker up to his feet and goes for a wild punch but Parker blocks and fires a shot of his own at Peter and then another and another until he starts making Peter back up and then rushes towards him but peter grabs Parker by the throat and goes for a chokeslam but Parker counters it into ana arm drag, sending Peter across the ring and as he gets up to one knee, Parker meets him with a shining wizard and goes for the pin.

Denzel Porter: High pace and hard-hitting action in this match-up, neither man giving an inch to the other.
Candice Page: Peter and Parker are looking like they could have Match of the Night if they keep this up.
Parker waits for Peter to get back up on his feet and then charges towards him looking for a hurricanrana but Peter takes hold of his legs and looks to powerbomb him intot he corner but Parker hammers him with punches and counters it into a brain buster and then goes for a moonsault off the middle rope but Peter gets the knees up catches Parker in the midsection and Peter gets back to his feet and catches parker by the throat and chokeslam him right out the ring!
Denzel Porter: Peter just tries to send Parker straightstraight to hell with that one.
Candice Parker: Parker might need a massage after that one.
Peter waits for Parker to start to stir and make it back to his feet and then bounces off the ropes and comes flying over the ropes and hits a suicide dive on Parker, sending him crashing into the barricade.
Denzel Porter: Never thought I see Air Peter.
Candice Page: Sometimes an old dog has to learn new tricks.
Peter makes it back to his feet first but clearly he has injured his shoulder on that dive, holding his right shoulder with his left hand but he doesn't let it slow him down as he fights through the pain and decks Parker with a left hand punch to the face, Peter then bounces Parker face off the steel steps and then rolls him back into the ring but takes his time to get back in as he tends to his right shoulder.
Denzel Porter: You have to wonder how this injury will affect Peter going forward in this match.
Candice Page: He's had a workhorse week of matches and doing that high-risk move might have just taken its toll on his body.
As Peter rolls into the ring, Parker kicks at the injured shoulder and then takes hold of it and starts yanking on it and then twist Peter's arm around, brings it down across his shoulder and then hits and arm drag on Peter that sends him across the ring. Peter holds his right shoulder as he backs up into the corner but before he can recover Parker comes running in delivering a running kick to the right shoulder and then stomps it some more before lifting Peter up into the corner and then takes him out with a British bulldog. Parker then lifts Peter up to his feet and delivers a couple knees to his face and then a spinning back fist that puts Peter in a daze and then Parker kicks him in the gut and goes for “Hellheim Hellfire” (Twisting Northern Lights Bomb) and quickly goes for the pin as the referee gets in position.

THRE..NO! KICKOUT!!!!!!
Denzel Porter: God Almighty I thought this one was over, I truly thought Parker was about to defeat the TPW International Champion and send him back home to his ranch.
Candice Page: Parker has to do a lot more in order to take down this legendary Champion.
Parker slaps the mat in frustration and starts to look desperate as he backs up into the corner and waits for Peter to stagger back to his feet before charging at him and looking for a superkick but Peter moves out of the way and Parker ends up almost running into the turnbuckle but puts on the breaks and turns back around to see Peter coming at him, looking for a spear but Parker side steps to the left and Peter goes right shoulder first into the steel pole.
Denzel Porter: The damage just might be done to Peter.
Peter stumbles out of the corner in agony as he holds his right shoulder, leaving himself open for an attract that Parker takes advantage of as he hits Peter with Blade of Miquella” (Skull Kick - Spinning Hook Kick to the head) the moves knocks Peter out cold but Sean doesn't go for the cover, instead he climbs up to the top turnbuckle quickly and stands up as the fans stand up in the arena to get a look at Parker about to take flight, he looks down at Peter and then leaps to hit Leap of Faith” (1080 Twisting Corkscrew Senton) and immediately hooks both legs as the referee gets in position.

Main Event
TPG Round Two
Submission Match
Liam Vaughn vs Gabriel Baal
Denzel Porter: It's time for the Main Event match up of the second round of The Porter Games and this one is going to be a nail biter in my opinion.
Theo Pryce: This is a match up that I think a lot of people had circled on the card after seeing Liam able to knock off Enigma and after seeing Baal show the world he's still got it.
Denzel Porter: This one is going to be interesting and one where it truly could go either way.
The venue is plunged into darkness. A fog lifts in the room and a light show distracts all as “Twisted” by MISSIO plays. Vaughn enters through the crowd, making his way down to the ring.
Mister Big Ticket: Making his way to the ring at a weight of 165lbs, from London, England I give you Liam Vaughn!!!
He slides beneath the rope and into the ring. While cracking his neck, knuckles, or spine–he waits for the bell to ring.
The lights in the arena go out as Black Sky by WAR*HALL hits over the speakers, as the beat drops around twenty five seconds in, a single spotlight drops on the ramp engulfing Gabriel Baal in light. His head is down, his fingers are pressed together. His ring attire is covered by a jacket, zipped up the front from the waist to the neck, but the jacket runs down to the ground at the back. He lifts his head as he begins to walk down the ramp. As he reaches the ring, he climbs the steps and waits, as the beat drops again, he extends his arms wide, and throws his head back casting off his hood and bringing the arena into light.
Mister Big Ticket: Making his way to the ring at the weight of 238lbs, from London, England, I give you The Chimera Gabriel Baal!!!!
He steps through the ropes and walks to the centre of the ring, when the beat drops one last time, once more he extends his hands out to the side (if holding a championship, he's unzipped the jacket, and when he extends his arms, the jacket opens to reveal the title belt around his waist.)
Denzel Porter: The Battle of the UK begins!
Theo Pryce: I see what you did there Porter.
*BELL RINGS*
Baal and Liam meet center in the ring, they stare each other down as fans go back and forth chanting their names.
Denzel Porter: A once-in-a-lifetime moment right here, two of the best technical wrestlers of their generation.
They begin the test of strength and Liam gains advantage and starts backing Baal up towards the ropes but he kicks Liam in the knee to break the hold and then trips him up to make Liam fall face first on the ropes. He then bounces off the ropes from the opposite side and comes back and drops his leg over his head and then tosses his head against the mat and stomps at his hands and then lifts him up and delivers a chop to his chest and then slings him into the the turnbuckle and looks to follow up with a close line but Liam moves out of the way and Baal eats the turnbuckle and then turns around towards Liam, Liam take him down with an arm drag and then tries to lock in an armbar but Baal slips out of his grasp and then they stand in the middle of the ring again.
Theo Pryce: Fast pace action out of the gate.
Denzel Porter: Both looking to push one another early in this match up.
Baal and Liam paced around the ring, sizing each other up before locking up in the center of the ring. Liam again takes the advantage and moves into a headlock but only for a moment as Baal started to lift Liam up and quickly back down into an Atomic Drop that launches him into the corner. Liam got back up, shaking off the moment. As they sized each other up, there was a shared look. This was a clash between two ground mat technicians. One mistake could be the end.
Denzel Porter: Neither one giving an inch or an advantage so far.
Theo Pryce: Who's going to blink first?
As they moved back into the center of the ring, about to lock horns again, Liam dropped to a knee and slid around to the back, looking for a quick German Suplex, only for Baal to land on his feet, Liam tries adjusting to attack but he was met with a European Uppercut, followed by a drop toe hold into the STF.
Denzel Porter: Beautiful transition work by Baal.
Theo Pryce: Will there be a submission or will Liam find a way out of this position?
As Baal starts to wrench back, Liam looks for a way out of the hold and then locks eyes with the ropes. Planting his arm under him, he started to push up, bent knee acting as a fulcrum before a sudden twist would transfer him on top of him and him effortlessly floating into Side mounted Triangle choke with his arms around Baal arm and neck. Baal would struggle and kick for a bit before his feet found purchase on the mat and arched his back to slip out of his clutch. Setting them back to square one. For a moment, as they looked at each other from their positions, there was a small smile of admiration. Liam got back up onto his feet and slapped both biceps in turn and running toward Baal who looks ready to lock horns again, except Liam nails him with a running knee strike and then Baal went as stiff as a board as he fell back. Liam shook off his hand for a moment, he didn’t get as much of it as he wanted but one mistake was thinking they would keep going into grappling. He went right over to him and stomped hard on his left wrist, which was so key to much of Baals offense. Reaching down he bent his wrist back and then stomped on his raised elbow, sending him rolling away in pain, clutching the arm. Before he could do much to recover, he had Baal trapped in the corner, arm draped over the rope and pulled back in to apply pressure. The ref quickly came over giving them a 5 count, with it broken at 4 and then immediately reapplied.After another 5 count, Liam broke it, but immediately Baal rushed in, wrapped his good arm around his neck and fell backwards slamming his head into the turnbuckle. Quickly into position, he hit his own German Suplex, quickly turning as Liam got up, sliding into position he followed up with a kneeling DDT, followed quickly into a grounded headscissors. This time, Liam had to kick on his own, just making it to the ropes which caused Baal to immediately break.
As Liam stood back up, he ran towards Baal looking for knee strike to go, but he would soon be Swept Off His Feet and then Baal would hit a double foot stomp to the chest. Liam got up as he was holding the back of his neck from the impact. Baal moved around the ring, hyping up the fans, trying to tap into that second battery of his as Liam pulled himself up in the corner, he was soon met by running knee strike, which he fell into a Hip toss, As he rolled up to sit down, Baal was already bouncing off the ropes to deliver a sliding forearm to his seated opponent. Baal takes a moment to admire the cheering fans in the arena but it's costly as Liam jumps up on his back from behind and puts his arms around his neck and locks in a chokehold in the center of the ring.
Denzel Porter: Baal was living in the moment but now he is in no man's land.
Caught in the center of the ring and stretched a bit, Baal was fading under the choke, the ref lifting his arm
Once…
Twice…
Thri…
His arm stays up as he starts swinging his legs back and forth, soon Liam was on top of Baal as he started to stand. He quickly slid off and moved into position for a Standing suplex, but Baal got his foot under him to block. With a last gasp of adrenaline, he grabbed his knee and reversed it into an ankle lock and then dragged Liam into the middle of the ring and increased the pressure on the hold.
Denzel Porter: Marvelous transition work by Baal to get himself out of trouble and put Liam stuck between a rock and a hard place.
Theo Pryce: Liam has to dig deep now.
Baal keeps the pressure on as Liam digs deep as he starts to use his forearms to drag him towards the ropes while the referee ask him if he plans to give up but Liam shakes his head and continues to pull himself forward until he able to grab the ropes and despite the frustration on Baals face he lets go of the hold and then stalks Liam as he uses a the ropes to pull himself up and as he turns around Baal looks for an arm drag but Liam uses his high IQ to reverse the move right into Fujiwara Armbar!!!
Denzel Porter: My God these two wrestling technicians are showing off just how easy it is for them to get you stuck between a rock and a hard place.
Theo Pryce: looks like he has Baal right where he wants her at.
Liam leans back so that he can apply more pressure to the hold and Baal looks around for an escape but the pain starts to get to him as he bites his tongue and tries to pull himself to the ropes but Liam breaks the hold for a moment to deliver some kicks to the face of Baal and then pulls him back to the center of the ring and replies the the submission hold.
Denzel Porter: Liam using the high in ring IQ to bring Baal back and prevent him from breaking the hold again.
Liam applies more pressure and then the referee comes to check on Baal and asks him if he likes to give up but he refuses to tap or give in but as the referee looks over at his arm, they notice the damage he's taken and how bad it's starting to look and after asking Baal would he like to give up on his own and he refuses again as he fights back the pain as Liam bends his arm back even more brutal and starts wrenching it really good but Baal refuses to tap out and give in to the hold but eventually the pain starts to become too much as Baal looks to pass out from the pain and the referee finally gives in and calls for the bell.
Theo Pryce: Wait what just happened? I didn't see a tap out?
*Bell rings*
Mister Big Ticket: Here is your winner by referee stoppage and moving on to the semi-finals of The Porter Games, LIAM VAUGHN!!!!
Denzel Porter: Damn it you hate to see it end like this but the referee had no choice from what I've been told. Baals arm had taken too much damage and the referee didn't see how he could continue the match in his condition, especially after passing out from the pain.
Theo Pryce: These two gave it their all and sucks to see it end like this but Liam earned this win. He made the right adjustments throughout this match to put him in a position to win.
Denzel Porter: Baal should feel no shame about this, he gave it everything he had tonight. He might not have won but he damn sure put on a performance that these fans will remember as much as they will Liam, who just pulled off another upset win in this tournament, this competitor can now brag that he's beaten Enigma and Baal in the same tournament.
Baal stands up still holding his injured arm close to him and then begins to exit the ring but Liam turns him back around and with an intense look he gives Baal a handshake and a respectful nod as the fans give them a standing ovation.
Denzel Porter: Mutual respect between these two
Competitors but now we look forward to the third round of The Porter Games where we get one step closer to crowning a winner of the first ever Porter games, tune in for the semi finals to see Chris Page vs Sean Parker and Liam Vaughn vs Brandon Hendrix. These are your final four!
