Oliver Sudden def. Jay Jewell
Oliver Sudden defeated Jay in what could be seen as an upset for many, the loveable Ollie Sudden was treated with the same warm welcome always. Jay Jewell was hard hitting as usual, he hit some nice suplexes, throws and strikes, Jay has really impressed of late and keeps improving. Ollie persevered and captured victory.
Sid Oakley & Dani Luna def. Big Grizzly/Flynn Burden & Shay Purser/Josh Holly
This was a very entertaining affair, especially with the antics of Shay Purser who, along with Josh Holly made this match very memorable. The team of Dani Luna and Sid Oakley offer a fresh double act, their pairing is new, fresh and exciting. Since their battle last month, Flynn and Grizzly decided to forge an alliance but unfortunately they were not successful here. Potential top heel Josh Holly continues to adapt and evolve with his character, another fine performance from him here.
Wild Boar def. Jordan Devlin
This was a highly anticipated contest, both Boar and Devlin are two very accomplished wrestlers and they exhibited their skill in a great contest. The chemistry between the two was there to see, the in ring action was crisp and slick, with both men attempting to out do one another. After a great back and forth contest, Boar put Devlin away with the famed Trapper Keeper for the 1,2,3, would love to see these two go at it again.
Following the contest Boar was attacked by Luna & Oakley who then stole Boar’s Tag Team Title belt.
The Merlin Cambridge Invitational – Final Round
Nico Angelo def. Sid Scala, LK Mezinger & Elijah
The final round of the Merlin invitational was a competitive affair, on the rise Nico Angelo managed to defeat 3 very talented challengers to progress to the final. The action was full on, Nico gained victory via a Shooting Star Press on Elijah.
Celtic Crown Women’s Title
Sierra Loxton (C) def. Martina
The very popular Sierra Loxton retained her title against the equally loved Martina, the match was very entertaining with the audience very much involved. Sierra hit her spots well, the match revolved around Martina’s comedy segments and built to a satisfying finale. Loxton retained via her patented Hip Attack!
All Wales Title Match Triple Threat Match *New Champion*
Matt Horgan def. Mike Bird & Danny Jones (C)
This was arguably the match of the night, the ever impressive Matt Horgan captured the title he has rightfully deserved to hold. Matt is a wrestling machine, and has over the last year been the standout performer at Dragon Pro shows, here he defeated hometown hero Mike Bird and the much adored Danny Jones. This can be viewed as an upset victory, judging by the audience reaction, however Horgan has been knocking on the door for months. This was fast paced, hard hitting, a wrestling clinic if you will, non stop and back and forth, Matt Horgan became the new champion after pinning Bird following the Killswitch.
