Pro Wrestling Uprising - WARFARE 07/22 - Anarchy Rulez up!

July 22nd 2021

Warfare: Anarchy Rules kicks off from the West Virginia University Colosseum! The pyro explodes throughout the arena with 13,000 on hand all going nuts for PWU action! We go over to our commentary team of Mauro Ranallo and Nigel McGuinness!

Ranallo: ”It’s another hot summer’s night here in West Virginia and we welcome you to Warfare, Anarchy Rules!”

McGuinness: ”The first match of it’s kind, a six man tag team elimination match with last man standing rules! Kross, Scherr and Levi of The Anarchy take on the make shift team of Samoa Joe, the number one contender to the PWU World Championship Jon Moxley and a man who has seemingly parted ways with The Anarchy….AJ Styles!”

Ranallo: ”A very interesting match to say the least, but we’re kicking off with mixed tag team action!”

(NWA World Champion) Nick Aldis & (PWU Women’s Champion) Mickie James Aldis vs. BB Crawford and a mystery partner
Before the match, Nick Aldis got on the microphone and told Adam Cole to watch this match closely as this is going to be his future at Blood In The Sand! After this, BB Crawford enters the arena to a big ovation. BB states that she is going to get back into the Women’s Championship hunt starting tonight and her mystery partner for this match?……….Keith Lee!!! Keith Lee returns with a huge ovation!

Lee and BB rush to the ring and go straight to work with right hands on their opponents! Lee and Aldis start the match, Lee whips Aldis off the ropes and hits a huge back body drop following up with some hard clotheslines! Lee takes control of Aldis demonstrating his powerful offence. Lee whips Aldis into the corner and goes for mounted punches on Aldis, but Aldis hits a low blow on Lee! The ref doesn’t see it as Mickie pretends that shes going to get into the ring. Aldis then hits a sit out powerbomb onto the big man! Aldis works over Lee with numerous stomps and rest holds, trying to methodically keep the big man on the mat. Aldis locks in a grounded sleeper and with the ref checking on Lee, he puts his feet on the rope for leverage! Lee gets back into the match eventually when Aldis tries to lock in the Cloverleaf but Lee kicks Aldis to the mat and then catches him coming back with a spinebuster! Lee crawls over and tags in BB! Crawford runs in and takes Mickie down with a spear! Crawford hammers away on Mickie and hits a snap suplex. BB goes for the Alley Oop but James reverses it into a sit out face buster! James uses her experience to keep Crawford out of the match, wearing her down with boots and kicks. James works on BB’s arm, getting her in an arm bar. James kicks away at the arm before ramming it into an exposed turnbuckle in which Aldis takes off the pad! Mickie in control goes for a chick kick but BB catches her foot and executes a beautiful T Bone suplex! BB then goes for the elevated chicken wing but her arm gives out and drops Mickie to the mat! BB feels the affects and tags in Keith Lee! Aldis and Lee battle it out for a period of time with Lee in control of the NWA champion! Lee sees the finish in sight and goes for the pounce but as he’s standing near the ropes, Mickie James holds on to his foot! Lee tries to shake Mickie off but BB Crawford comes over and takes out James with a spear on the outside! With the distraction, Aldis charges Lee and Lee goes face first into the exposed turnbuckle! Lee falls to the mat and Aldis goes to the top and hits the flying elbow drop! Aldis covers, 1……..2……..3!

Mickie and Nick Aldis leave arm in arm in victory as BB Crawford checks on Keith Lee in the ring.

Ranallo: ”Mickie and Nick have stolen one there! Keith Lee looked as though he was going to beat the NWA Champion but Mickie saved her husband and in turn Aldis got the win!”

McGuinness: ”Great team work from the husband and wife duo! Adam Cole and Britt Baker have a huge task ahead of them if they want to dethrone the Aldis’s!”

We go backstage as Jon Moxley arrives to the arena. He is soon caught up by Adnan Virk who wants Moxley’s thoughts going in to the Anarchy Rules match. Moxley states “I’m looking forward to kicking The Anarchy’s ass. They wanna jump me or appear from the darkness but let’s see how tough they are when they are faced with with the animal that is in me! As for my so called partners tonight, I think it’s bulls**t……I don’t want or need Samoa Joe’s help and as for Styles, who knows where his head is at? I don’t trust either of them so tonight they need to sort their own issues and leave me to sort mine….” As Moxley is about to walk away, Samoa Joe appears in shot. “Moxley, I don’t like you and I know that feeling is mutual. Tonight though we have a common enemy…..The Anarchy. Let’s just do our jobs tonight and stay out of each other’s way. If you get in my way, you know what will happen….” Moxley steps to Joe “What’s that exactly? I’m not scared of you Joe but you’re right….let’s go out there and kick The Anarchy’s ass then we can sort out any issue we have afterwards…” Moxley walks away and Joe stares at Moxley walking off.

Bobby Lashley vs. Matt Riddle
A rematch from Battleground here on Warfare! Riddle goes to flip his sandals off his feet for his entrance but Lashley attacks from behind! The bell sounds and Lashley hammers away on Riddle and sets him up for a pump handle slam but Riddle climbs down behind Lashley and hits a german suplex! Riddle lets Lashley to his feet and hits an enziguiri to the back of Lashley’s head sending him to the mat! Riddle goes for a quick cover, 1…..2…..no! Lashley powers out. Riddle goes for an exploder suplex but Lashley drives his knee into Riddle’s mid section and executes his own belly to back suplex! Lashley takes control for a period of time hitting him with clubbing blows and he rams his shoulders into Riddle’s mid section in the corner. Lashley sits Riddle on top and goes for a top rope suplex but Riddle hits Lashley with forearms and pushes him to the mat from the top rope! Riddle hits a beautiful top rope senton, right on the money, Riddle covers 1…..2…..no! Lashley kicks out. Riddle takes some control of the match, with several near falls after hitting his signature flurry of moves, exploder suplex, spear and a gutwrench suplex! Riddle goes for the Bro Hammer but Lashley reverses it and hits a delayed vertical suplex! Lashley covers, another near fall. Lashley again takes control but as he goes for his Spear, Riddle leapfrogs and Lashley goes shoulder first into the turnbuckle! Riddle sets Lashley up for the Bro Derek! Riddle hooks Lashley and connects! Riddle covers, 1………2……….but the referee is pulled out the ring to the floor! It’s Shelton Benjamin! Riddle can’t believe it and chases him around the ring, Benjamin climbs in the ring with Riddle chasing him but Lashley catches Riddle with a Spear! Lashley covers Riddle as the ref rolls back into the ring, 1……..2…….3!

Benjamin and Lashley leave Riddle laying in the ring and make their way to the back. Benjamin raises Lashley’s hand on the entrance way as Riddle struggles to get to his feet in the ring.

Ranallo: ”Bobby Lashley defeats Matt Riddle again! This time with the help of his new protege Shelton Benjamin!”

McGuinness: ”One thing’s for sure, Riddle wont take this lying down! That’s twice now that Lashley has beaten Riddle, I don’t think this is the last we’ve seen of these two!”

We see a video package hyping up the tag team elimination match later between The Bullet Club and The Good Brothers and Santana and Ortiz. After this we see The Good Brothers talking to Santana and Ortiz backstage. “Tonight we need to get along. We both know that we all want to take those Tag Titles from the Young Bucks….tonight let’s take care of The Bullet Club and The Bucks, then we can fight amongst ourselves for those titles…..what do you say?” Santana responds “You know homes……you’re right. Tonight we will be on the same page but just know that it’s myself and Ortiz getting a shot at those tag titles and not you guys! If we have to go through you to get to those titles then we will…..but tonight….we show them Bullet Club cowards who’s boss!” Gallows laughs “You seriously think you’re getting a shot before us? Remind me how long was your losing streak again before you finally strung together some wins? Too long. That’s fine though because tonight the best team will win…..us….” Gallows motions himself and Karl Anderson as he says this. Santana and Ortiz smirk and Ortiz states “We’ll see you out there……”

We go back to the ring when we hear Kenny Omega’s music hit! Omega comes out to a huge ovation and grabs a mic. Kenny talks about his surprise for Drew Galloway and we’ll get to that soon enough. Kenny talks about how important the match at Blood In The Sand is and it’s so important for Kenny to win that he has put his career on the line. Kenny states that if he is to play any further part in professional wrestling, then he has to conquer the stumbling block that has been the Bullet Club and Drew Galloway in particular. Kenny says after Revolution, he sat at home for months, not knowing what was next for Kenny Omega. Kenny came back because he knew he had to defeat The Bullet Club and prove why he is the best wrestler on the planet, however so far things haven’t gone to plan. Kenny states he shouldn’t be in wrestling if he can’t beat Drew Galloway. Kenny states this is why he has been scouting Galloway’s career and needs to find his weaknesses to work on ahead of the match at Blood In The Sand and he has finally found one. Kenny brings out Drew Galloway, who heads to the ring and also grabs a microphone. “Kenny, why are we wasting our time with this!? I have a match later, The Bullet Club have beaten you time and time again, stop this now and save yourself the embarrassment of whatever this surprise is!” Kenny responds, “Drew you’re gonna love this! I know I can beat you and I know you are beatable and what better way to get in your head than to befriend an individual who has beaten you in a big match in the past and bring back those painful memories! I’ve scouted your career from before the WWE and there’s a man who I know whose name still makes you shudder until this very day after he beat you for the ICW World Heavyweight Title…..so without further ado please welcome…………GRAAADDDDDOOOOO!”

The lights in the arena dim as a remix of Madonna’s ‘Like a Prayer’ plays through the arena! The crowd cheer loudly before singing along to the song as Grado makes his entrance!! The fans cheer as Grado dances his way to the ring with the crowd singing!

Ranallo: ”Is this for real!? Do we really have 13,000 people singing along with a Madonna track!”

Grado gets into the ring with Galloway looking extremely unamused. Kenny gives Grado the mic “Well Drew……how yous doing……remember me? Do you remember when at Fear and Loathing, I took the ICW title away from ya? Drew, I’ve known you for many years and you are one tough bastard but at Blood In The Sand, Kenny Omega will not be retiring from this great sport!” Drew has had enough and interrupts “Who the hell cares about you Grado!? You think I care about a stupid World Title for some tiny pissant company in the UK? I’m in the big leagues now, I have gone on to win multiple World Titles including this one, so do you really think I give a s**t about what a joke act thinks about me and The Bullet Club!?” Grado quickly retorts “I’m a joke act, I’ve heard it all before Drew…..talk about how I’m a fat loser too if you want……but I am a fat loser who has still beaten you!! So how big a loser does that make you Drew?….” The crowd cheer but Galloway has enough and goes to clothesline Grado but Grado ducks it and jabs away at Galloway!! Grado goes for the Flip Flop and Fly elbow but Galloway connects with a headbutt! Galloway then hits a Claymore on Grado as Omega looks on!! Omega then attacks Drew with several punches, Omega takes Drew to his knees and hits the V Trigger! Drew is knocked silly as Omega drags Grado out of the ring and they head to the back! Drew stares at them through the ropes as he holds his nose!

We go to a promo video for Blood In The Sand, focusing on the Aleister vs. Jon Moxley World Championship match. When we come back, we see Aleister sitting in a darkened room “Jon, tonight you compete in a match that is named after my group of brothers, The Anarchy rules match. Forget about winning this match, you just need to survive it. After all, I know you want what I have, what so many have unsuccessfully tried to take from me, this PWU World Championship. Well Jon just survive tonight and you get a shot at this…..however judging by how we’ve left you laying these past few weeks, I’ll say the chances of you even making it to Blood In The Sand are slim at best. You better survive tonight, you NEED to survive tonight or else you will have just fallen like the others……good luck….”

Kevin Steen vs. Rey Fenix
Xcite division action as Kevin Steen takes on a member of Pac’s Death Triangle group in AEW, Rey Fenix! This one starts with Steen and Fenix in a lock up with Steen backing Fenix into the turnbuckle before slapping him in the face! Steen ducks a clothesline attempt and catches Fenix coming back with a hard powerslam for a near fall! Steen continues using his strength advantage and goes for the Pop Up Powerbomb but Fenix counters in mid air with a headscissors take down! Fenix then delivers a few nice quick armdrags before locking hands with Steen, springboard off the top rope and a flipping corkscrew armdrag which sends Steen to the outside! Fenix jumps to the second turnbuckle, then to the top before jumping off with a high cross body press to Steen on the outside! Fenix climbs to the apron and waits for Steen to get to his feet and goes for a hurricarana but Steen catches him in a powerbomb position and drives him back first on to the ring apron! Steen rolls Fenix into the ring, covers, 1……2…..only a two! Steen maintains control for a period of time, until Steen goes for a top rope frog splash which misses as Fenix rolls out of the way! Both men get back to their feet and Fenix ducks a clothesline attempt and comes back with a springboard cutter from the middle rope! Fenix covers but again only a two! Back and forth action until Fenix goes for a top rope moonsault onto a standing Kevin Steen but Steen catches him in mid air and throws him like a lawn dart on to the top turnbuckle face first! Steen delivers a corner dropkick followed by the cannon ball! Steen goes for the Pop Up Powerbomb again but Fenix lands on his feet behind Steen but Steen grabs him by the head, Stunner!! Steen covers, 1……2…..3!

After the match, we see Pac again attempt a sneak attack but Steen sees it coming and escapes with his Xcite title!

McGuinness: ”Kevin Steen with a huge psychological victory over Pac ahead of Blood In The Sand, what a win against a talent like Rey Fenix!”

Ranallo: ”Steen is also becoming wiser to Pac’s sneak attacks! I think it’s fair to say that Steen got one over on Pac tonight!”

Pac shouts at Steen through the ropes “You can’t run forever Steen! That title will be mine soon enough!”

We go backstage where Adnan Virk is standing by with The Bullet Club ahead of the eight man tag team elimination match tonight. Adnan asks how Drew is feeling after that altercation with Kenny Omega and Grado earlier tonight. Drew tells Virk that he is fine and Omega and Grado will have to wait. Drew challenges Grado to a match on next week’s show! Drew states that tonight, The Bullet Club will show their dominance and unlike other factions in PWU, they don’t have any dissension or attack their own teammates. The Bullet Club stand as one and tonight they will show why they are the most dominant team in PWU! Adam Cole then speaks and tells Nick Aldis that if he even thinks of getting involved in their match tonight, The Bullet Club will put him down! Nick Jackson then speaks and says The Bullet Club find it funny as their opponents can’t get along already and the match hasn’t even started yet. Jackson states that they have proven why they are truly the best team in pro wrestling, they beat DIY, they beat Lashley and Riddle, and it doesn’t matter to them whether it’s The Good Brothers or Santana and Ortiz who’s next, it’ll be the same result. …..The Bullet Club always win.

The Bullet Club vs. The Good Brothers and Santana and Ortiz (Eight Man Tag Team Elimination Match)
The match starts out with Nick Jackson and Karl Anderson. These two exchange holds until a clean break is called but Nick kicks Anderson in the mid section and hits quick right hands. Nick whips Anderson into the turnbuckle and leapfrogs, tries to hip-toss Anderson coming back but Anderson blocks it and hits a hard clothesline! Anderson then executes his own hip-toss, followed by an armdrag into an armbar! Anderson tags in Gallows and Gallows goes to work on Nick Jackson with several clubbing blows. After being in control for a while, Nick ducks a big boot attempt and dropkicks the knee of Gallows, taking his leg out! The Bucks use several quick tags to isolate Gallows and The Bullet Club are in control. Eventually Gallows powers out of a sleeperhold and rams Matt Jackson back first into his corner turnbuckle! Santana tags himself in and goes to work on Matt. They work at a quick pace, but the first elimination occurs when Santana goes for the three amigos on Matt but Matt lands on his feet, runs and tags Galloway who charges at Santana with a Claymore! 1…..2…..3! Santana is eliminated!

The action continues as it’s 4 on 3, and Ortiz comes in and brawls with Galloway. Galloway looks to be in control but Ortiz catches him by surprise by reversing a snake eyes attempt and pushes Galloway sternum first into the corner and follows up with a huge lariat knocking Galloway to the mat! Ortiz covers but a near fall. Ortiz tags in Anderson who continues to work on Galloway with stiff chops to the chest before whipping Drew off the ropes and catching him coming back with a jumping calf kick! Anderson tags in Gallows and they go for a double team clothesline but Galloway ducks it and catches them both with a Claymore simultaneously! Galloway tags in Matt Jackson who waits for Gallows to get to his feet and goes for a superkick but Gallows catches it, spins Matt around and hits a big boot of his own! Gallows, standing splash! 1…….2……3! Matt Jackson is eliminated!

Adam Cole rushes into the ring and blindsides Gallows with a chop block to his knee! Cole keeps the big man grounded, driving his knee into Gallows knee repeatedly. The fans want Gallows to make the tag but again, The Bullet Club isolate him nicely with frequent tags. Cole comes back in and looks for the Last Shot but Anderson out of nowhere intercepts with a flying clothesline! The match breaks down as all six men begin brawling around the ringside area leaving Adam Cole in the ring. Suddenly we see Nick Aldis rush down to the ring! He levels Cole with the NWA Championship while both referee’s are trying to break up the fight on the outside! Aldis leaves through the crowd! In comes Ortiz, the referee rolls back in as Ortiz covers a KO’d Adam Cole, 1…….2……3! Adam Cole is eliminated!

It’s 3 on 2! The Good Brothers and Ortiz working well as a unit at the moment. Nick Jackson and Ortiz battle it out, some great action on display between these two. Nick Jackson gets the upper hand and hits a 450 splash on to Ortiz! The cover, 1…..2….near fall! Jackson looks as though he’s setting up for a superkick but Gallows enters the ring and tries to take Jackson’s head off with a big boot but Nick ducks and Gallows levels Ortiz by mistake! Galloway takes Gallows out of the match with a Spear as Nick Jackson hits a standing moonsault before covering Ortiz, 1……2…..3! Ortiz is eliminated thanks to Gallows mistake! Santana rushes down to ringside and confronts Anderson on the outside! Anderson maintains it was an accident but Santana and Ortiz beat down Karl Anderson! Gallows comes over to put a stop to it as the two teams brawl on the outside of the ring. The referee is counting still inside the ring and the ref reaches the 10 count!

The referee calls for the bell and we hear the official decision is that both of The Good Brothers have been counted out! Therefore the winners of the match are Drew Galloway and Nick Jackson! Galloway and Jackson head to the back while officials pour out to break up this fight at ringside between The Good Brothers and Santana and Ortiz!

Ranallo: ”A strange way to the end the match, however as neither of The Good Brothers were in the ring or in their corner, the ref counted both of them out of the match as there was no legal man!”

McGuinness: ”I don’t blame Santana and Ortiz for being annoyed about being eliminated but they’ve just cost their team the match! One thing’s for sure, the tag team division is hotting up here in PWU!”

We go to a commercial break and we see the closing moments of the eight man tag match. We then go back to Mauro Ranallo and Nigel McGuinness.

Ranallo: ”An explosive night here on Warfare as you just saw and next week will be no different!”

McGuinness: ”That’s right Mauro, next week we will see Drew Galloway going one on one with Grado with Kenny Omega in his corner!”

Ranallo: ”Also just announced, The Good Brothers will face Santana and Ortiz, with the winners facing The Young Bucks for the Tag Team Championships at Blood In The Sand! Also, Matt Riddle taking on Shelton Benjamin and a Claudio Castagnoli open challenge for the International Championship!”

McGuinness: ”Can’t wait for that, who is going to step up next week to the challenge!? Also…….

Nigel is interrupted as ‘Cult of Personality’ sounds across the arena! CM Punk is here!!

Ranallo: ”Well we weren’t expecting Punk to be here tonight but clearly he has something on his mind!”

Punk takes a microphone as ‘CM Punk’ chants echo throughout the arena. “Now I dunno what the hell is going on around here but I’m beginning to get pissed off! Now I didn’t come here to be a part time player, I didn’t come here to come to shows when I want, collect my pay check for the one off appearance and leave unlike other big shot actors, I came here to prove that I am STILL the best in the world at what I do! Now at first, I was treated with respect, I was booked on every show whether wrestling or not, I’ve had a match on every Pay Per View so far and a title shot and now all of a sudden, I can’t even get on the weekly TV show!? I’m not booked for this week despite being in the main event last week and I’m not booked for the Blood In The Sand show in August and I want to know why! Stu Bennett I want you to come out here and explain to me what’s going on in your head and why I have no match at Blood In The Sand?” Stu Bennett makes his way out and appears on the stage. “Now Phil listen to me, I know what it looks like but trust me you have this all wrong. I know you weren’t booked in a match on this week’s show but we have 2 hours and we have 2 elimination matches tonight!” Punk gets pissed “You have a two hour show and you couldn’t feature the best wrestler in the world!? You had that idiot Grado out here earlier, I could have had a match then! Hell next week if I’m not booked, am I gonna have to challenge Castagnoli in the open challenge or are you gonna wheel some has been pot head out here again to do it?” Stu Bennett interjects “I’m sorry, ok? You’re right, we do want to feature the best wrestlers on TV weekly especially one that has the talent that you do but you were wrong about one thing Punk……you see, you do have a match at Blood In The Sand! I couldn’t tell you until now….” Punk smirks “Glad you finally see things my way Stu, who am I up against? I mean I’ve already beaten Moxley and he’s now your number one contender so who on earth is going to be good enough to face me at Blood In The Sand?” Bennett thinks about it “I’d love to tell you but……it’s a secret. You see, PWU have been negotiating with this man since we found out his contract was nearly up at another promotion. Well, earlier this week I received a call from Mr Williams, informing me that we have officially signed this gentleman. I had a good feeling about it but just in case it fell through I couldn’t tell you. I planned to have you face this man at Blood In The Sand and now it’s come to fruition. At Blood In The Sand, it will be CM Punk taking on…………you’ll find out at the Pay Per View! If you really are the best in the world, it won’t matter right Punk?” Punk thinks about it “You know that’s fine Stu, it doesn’t matter who you’ve signed, so long as they know they are going to be wrestling greatness at Blood In The Sand and it will be embarrassing for them to lose their first PWU match against the best……in the world!” Punk’s music hits and Bennett smirks before walking back to the locker room.

Ranallo: ”Huge announcement by our GM Stu Bennett! CM Punk will be going up against PWU’s most recent signee at Blood In The Sand! I wonder who it could be!?”

McGuinness: ”Well there has been speculation but we’ll find out officially at Blood In The Sand!”

We go backstage where we see The Anarchy holding hands in a circle in prayer with Aleister in the middle hyping them up for the upcoming match. “Tonight, we leave Moxley and Joe laying….but spare AJ and bring what’s left of him to me…let The Anarchy commence brothers…”

Ranallo: ”Before we go to our main event, let’s run down the few rules of the Anarchy Rules Match:

- All six men will be in the match at the same time which is why there are two referee’s.
- There are no pinfalls, no submissions, no DQ’s, the only way to eliminate your opponent is by having them incapacitated enough to not answer the referee’s 10 count.
- The match will continue until one man is left standing. “

McGuinness: ”Let’s get to it!! I can’t wait for this!”

The Anarchy (Kross, Scherr & Levi) vs. Jon Moxley, Samoa Joe and AJ Styles - Anarchy Rules Match
Moxley and Joe have a brief stare down just before The Anarchy make their entrance. Styles gets between Moxley and Joe and they both glare at AJ. The Anarchy make their entrance but suddenly, Joe, Moxley and AJ all run off the ropes and hitting stereo diving attacks on their opponents on the outside! The bell sounds and the match begins! Joe and Kross brawl up the ramp, Joe in control ramming his knee into Kross before bouncing his head off the steel barricade! Moxley has Scherr covering up as he hammers away on him with mounted punches to the head! AJ picks Levi up and throws him into the steel stairs! A referee starts his count on Levi, but Levi gets to his feet after a 5 count. Joe goes to hit a suplex to Kross on the ramp but Kross blocks it and hits a belly to back release suplex on to Joe on the steel ramp! Another referee starts a count on Joe, but Joe gets to his feet at 6! Moxley heads under the ring to pick up some weapons and pulls out a trash can lid and tries to hit Scherr with it, but Scherr swats it away before grabbing Moxley in a choke with both hands and flings him into the ringpost! Moxley is down very briefly but Scherr picks him back up and chokes him against the ringpost, until Moxley delivers a low blow and pushes Scherr into the post himself! Moxley picks up the trashcan lid and smashes it repeatedly against Scherr’s head but he still remains on his feet! Levi and AJ continue brawling, Levi throws AJ into the barricade before getting him back into the ring. Levi whips AJ into the turnbuckle hard before hitting a huge clothesline. The referee counts AJ but AJ is on his feet at 5! All six men continue brawling all around the ringside area! Joe chokes Kross out with the Coquina Clutch on the ramp and the ref starts his count! Joe heads towards the ring to help AJ and Kross just about makes it to his feet at the count of 9! Joe throws a steel chair to AJ as Kross jumps Joe from behind! Meanwhile Scherr is in complete control of Moxley and throws him across the announce table! The ref begins to count Moxley as AJ hits Levi in the gut twice with the chair before hitting him hard on the back! Moxley makes it to his feet at 8 and nails Scherr in the head with a TV monitor! Scherr is down as the ref begins his count. Moxley rushes into the ring and hits the Paradigm Shift to Levi on to the chair! The second referee counts Levi as Moxley goes back out to Scherr who made it to his feet in time. AJ climbs to the top rope and hits a 450 splash on to Levi to keep him down! The ref starts his count again, Kross tries to get into the ring to help but Samoa Joe starts hammering away at him! The ref counts to 10 for Levi, and Levi is eliminated!

The match continues and Moxley, Joe and AJ working well as a team so far! The tide of the match turns however when AJ goes for a Phenomenal Forearm to Kross, but Kross hits a huge bicycle kick on AJ in mid air knocking Styles senseless! Moxley and Joe double team Scherr but Scherr clotheslines both men down on the outside! The referee counts AJ but AJ uses the ropes to make it to his feet at 9! So close to elimination! Kross and Scherr take control in the match and they drag Moxley over to the announce table and deliver a hellacious double chokeslam through the announce table to Moxley! Joe attacks both men from behind and as Joe, Kross and Scherr are fighting, AJ springboards from the top rope on all of three of them below! One ref counts Moxley, while the other counts the others in the match! Moxley somehow uses the barricade and nearby fans to pull himself to his feet at 9 and 3/4! The others make their way to their feet as Moxley staggers around the ring before going underneath and bringing out his barbed wire bat! Moxley levels Scherr with it in the gut! Moxley then uses it to tear at the flesh on the forehead of Scherr busting him open! Moxley and Scherr brawl up the ramp, leaving AJ and Joe with Kross at ringside. Joe rolls Kross into the ring and delivers kicks and a punch combo before knocking Kross down with an enziguiri! AJ ascends the top turnbuckle but as he does that, Aleister makes his way on the stage with a microphone! “AJ! AJ!…….listen, what happened last week was a mistake. You’re still our brother…..you belong to us AJ. Come back to The Anarchy…..do what’s right….” AJ shrugs his shoulders after a moment’s hesitation and delivers the 450 on to Kross! Aleister is furious and runs into the ring, where he is met by Samoa Joe! Joe and Aleister brawl as the ref counts Kross! AJ then helps Joe with Aleister and they both throw the PWU Champion out of the ring! Kross makes it to his feet in time as Joe and Moxley double team Aleister and Scherr on the ramp! AJ is staring at the carnage up the ramp and doesn’t realise Kross is standing behind him. Kross gets AJ in the Rear Naked Choke and chokes AJ out! Kross helps Aleister up the ramp as AJ is out of it in the ring! The referee gets to 10 and AJ is eliminated!

Down to four now, as the action spills to the stage area! Kross, Scherr and Aleister triple team Moxley and Joe. Aleister instructs Kross to throw Joe off the stage! Kross hammers away on Joe and attempts to suplex Joe off the stage but they both end up suplexing each other at the same time resulting in both men crashing into the debris below!!! The referee starts his count on Joe and Kross while Scherr and Aleister hammer away on Moxley. The ref reaches his 10 count and both Joe and Kross are eliminated!

We’re down to two! The fans boo as Scherr and Aleister double team Moxley, as this looks like an easy win for The Anarchy. Scherr throws Moxley into the steel staging sending him crashing hard! Aleister tells Scherr to pick Moxley up, which he does. Aleister tells Moxley that he’s going to kick him all the way to hell and with that, Scherr holds Moxley near the edge of the stage! Aleister goes for the Midnight Mass kick but at last second, Moxley drags Scherr in the way of the kick and Scherr wobbles before flying off the stage!!!! Scherr goes through wooden tables, debris everywhere just like Joe and Kross did! Aleister can’t believe it and he charges towards Moxley but Moxley hits him with the Paradigm Shift onto the steel!! The referee counts to 10 with no response from Scherr and Moxley is declared the winner!

Moxley celebrates the win by climbing up on the scaffolding at the end of the stage and raises his arm in the air in victory! The EMT’s are helping Joe, Kross and Adam Scherr while the refs check on Aleister.

Ranallo: ”Jon Moxley is standing tall tonight! What a brutal match! Bodies everywhere, EMT’s everywhere! Moxley survives Anarchy Rules……goodnight everybody!”
