SHOW 2-26

The announce team recap the tournament so far, with a focus on Konnan and Strife losing to Sultan's shenanigans.

@MajinZidane @Maniac64
ROUND 2: Boko United (Boko and King Maniac) v. OkaKoro (Okayu and Korone)
OkaKoro got perhaps an upset win in the first round against Goldberg and Iskandar, possibly benefitting from the latter's suspension. Their luck does not hold out here, as the newly formed Boko United are able to somewhat cruise to a win.
Winners: Boko United

NON-TITLE: B8WL and Hardcore Champ Bang v. Eaed w/Time Cop 1
Bang was expecting a quick squash, but she didn't get one! Between her overconfidence and the Time Cop distracting her, Eaed is actually able to give her a run for her money. She still wins tho.
Winner: Bang

Eddv calls out R-Truth. He says that Truth is a weakling and a coward! Truth...kinda proves him right, by jumping him from behind. They scuffle for a bit and Eddv actually manages to send him packing, laughing off his former comrade.

@TheSultanOfSlam
Match: Konnan v. Sultan
Konnan gets a shot at a little revenge here after Sultan distracted him in the Tag Grand Prix. Both of 'em are fired up and ready for a brawl, and brawl they do. The ref gives them a lot of leeway, but eventually has to call for the bell after Konnan introduces a chair (to Sultan's face)
Winner by DQ: Sultan

Scare cuts a promo backstage. Last week Ludwig screwed around and found out. Tonight he and Cena are gonna take down Jurassic Express in the main event, but if Ludwig wants to try again....He's Feeling Lucky.

ROUND 2: Fellowship (Legolas and Gimli) v. Wild Samoans (Afa and Sika)
They didn't get to have their first round match, but lucked into another shot when the Hardys and MLMF went to a double countout. They waste no time, getting the brawl started before the Samoans even make it to the ring. It's a hectic match, but seizing the momentum at the beginning eventually pays off for the home team!
Winners: Fellowship

Rocky comes out to announce that he's going back to boxing! (I wanted to make a FWA reference but he's in the B8WL fed there too lol) It's been fun but the boxing ring is clearly the one he belongs in. Before that though, he wants to settle things with Ludwig, right here and now!

RETIREMENT MATCH: Rocky v. Ludwig
It's less of a match and more of an excuse for Rocky to punch Ludwig in the face until the ref calls for the bell. A moral victory, if a weird note to leave on.
Winner by DQ: Ludwig

David calls out Bison for a match, but what he gets is Bison flanked by the MLMF! In a revenge for last week, they start putting the boots to him, but Cena and Scare even the odds and make the save.

Match: Mario v. Bowser
The classic! Except Mario is still selling his injuries. Bowser ragdolls Mario around the ring for an extended period. Mario gets a hope spot after Bowser misses a Hip Drop off the top, but XIII comes down to the ring! Mario persuades XIII to come up to the apron, then throws him into the ring, hitting Bowser! That's kinda a DQ tho.
Winner by DQ: Bowser

XIII laughs at Mario losing the match in this fashion and stumbling around in exhaustion. Mario takes a swing, but XIII escapes to the outside.

XIII is onscreen again after commercial. Mario was a shadow of his former self even before XIII chucked him down the stairs, and now he can barely even move! If Mario wants to finish the fight, he'll be happy to put him down for good. He rips the head off a Mario doll and throws it in a trash can!

ROUND 2: Zangief and Beatrice w/Ronove v. The Horde (Catra and Scorpia)
Neither team got a particularly clean win last round (Horde won by interference, others by DQ) but surprisingly everybody stays mostly on the level here. We get some fun power spots from Gief and Scorp, and some shenanigans from Beato and Catra. Catra eventually overextends by not tagging out when she gets the chance, and Beatrice is eventually able to get the hot tag to Zangief for the win as a result.
Winners: Zangief and Beatrice

Bowser approaches Konnan backstage. The MLMF saw how vicious Konnan got with Sultan today, and they liked it! Konnan's gotten rowdy many a time....perhaps he'd like to join them and make some trouble? Konnan thinks about it, but decides he's perfectly capable of making his own trouble. Bowser advises him not to bite off more than he can chew.

Match: Davidponte v. M. Bison
David gets his match after all! Sorta. After a while Bison decides he's had enough, and leaves up the ramp. He gets a mic to give a lame excuse about it not being the right time, but we're pretty sure he's just scared.
Winner by countout: David

@Strife2
MASTERY OF TAYBLES: Strife2 (c) v. XIII_rocks
Just a good dang match. Strife has the upper hand for the majority, but XIII turns the tables (pun intented) by slipping out of the Black Hole Slam and bulldogging Strife through the table!
Winner and NEW MoT: XIII

Legolas joins on commentary to talk about the rapidly narrowing Tag Grand Prix field, in which he and Gimli could be considered favorites. The CeNation are jumped on the entrance ramp by the MLMF! Legolas, david, and even Jurassic Express make the save, but not before some serious damage is done.

ROUND 2: CeNation (Cena+Scare) v. Jurassic Express (Luchasaurus+Jungle Boy)
Cena and Scare, of course, are far too heroic and underdoggy to call off the match, so Jurassic Express reluctantly go forward. They clearly feel kinda bad about it, but not bad enough to hold back on winning.
Winners: Jurassic Express
