Benjamin Carter Vs Sam Gradwell
Gradwell Dominates early with his strength as well as some great British Wrestling and great control but Carter quickens the pace, some great athleticism sending Gradwell across the ring with middle rope missile drop-kick. However it just seems to light a fuse under Gradwell who ups the aggression and physicality, carter tries to create space but is shut down by the power of Gradwell as he grounds the high flyer but cannot put him away. Carter finally breaks free and unleashes a couple of hard chops and forearms, sends Gradwell to outside with a Enzuigiri, then followed up quickly with short run suicide dive wich sends Gradwell into the ring but he rolls out the other side, Carter, getting into the ring runs and dives over the ropes crashing down on Gradwell. Carter sends Gradwell back the ring again goes for spring board cross body but Gradwell catches him out the sky and slams carter face first into mat, but he still cannot finish carter, who hits a back flip into an Elbow Drop/Reverse DDT heading to the top rope Carter lands a Frog Splash getting the pin fall victory.

Josh Morell Vs Sha Samuel
Some nice wrestling from both to begin the match Morell seems to catch Sha by surprise with his athleticism, Sha decides to ditch the wrestling and starts to land heavy forearms to the face and huge knee lifts to the mid section of Morell. Sha really starts to dictate the pace of match not allowing Morell any space or any time to recover, drilling Morell with stiff kicks to the back, he does not just physically abuse the young Morell but verbally too. Morell dodges an elbow drop and is finally able to create some space, landing a drop kick followed by standing spinning Moonsalt Senton but could not get the pin. Sha almost takes Morell’s head off with a Clothesline, following up with a spine buster he quickly forces Morell to tap out with a Million Dollar dream/Camel Clutch combination.
Ilja speaking to the camera man at the performance centre does not know what caused him to snap in his match with Jack Starz, Sam Gradwell walks past telling people to stay away from that mad man.
