EXTREME DIVISION MATCH
Jason Evans Vs. Kasey Kash
The Extreme Champion, Kasey Kash, was ready for a fight in this opening bout. He quickly was on the offensive and battered Evans with strikes. Evans tried to use his speed to dip and dodge under Kash to the point where Kasey speared him through the ropes and pummeled him with blows. Kash drove Evans into the steel steps and walked around the ring. It looked like things were going to be over quickly as Kash looked for a running knee into the head of Evans as he sat on the floor by the stairs but Evans rolled out of the way and Kash went knee first into the steps. Evans jumped up to the apron and hit a meteora on the outside. Evans tried to roll Kash in and went to the top quickly and hit the Red Line (450 Splash). Evans had a pinfall attempt that got two before Kash kicked out. Kash rolled out of the ring and took a knee by the apron. Evans looked for a tope suicida but Kash had pulled a chair out from under the ring and smashed it into Evans’ face. Kash rolled Evans into the ring. Evans started to stand and Kash hit his Canberra Collapse (Springboard Cutter) before going right into Going The Distance (Last Shot/Shining Wizard). Kash covered and picked up the win.
WINNER: Kasey Kash via pinfall @ 15:31 via pinfall
Kash held up the Extreme Championship and told Manic and Kaito to come try and take it from him, that he was now the longest reigning Extreme Champion in company history.
Hide and Go Seek
“Lights Out” by POD started to play as the fans popped for the entrance of AJ Adams. He stepped out onto the stage. He made his way to the ring and moved around it as his music eventually cut out.
AJ Adams: For the last couple weeks it feels like I’ve been playing hide and seek with Casey Grey. It’s no secret that I came back to Empire Wrestling with one thing in mind and right now it seems like Casey is in my way. I was told by management that I had to beat Casey for her number one contendership for the World Championship. She’s been ducking me for weeks now and so I protested for something to happen.
Adams looks into the camera and talks right to Grey.
AJ Adams: Casey Grey. In two weeks, July 2nd, I’m going to come into this ring in my wrestling gear. That bell is going to ring and a match will start where the winner takes on Tia Santos for the EW World Championship. If you’re not there then the referee will count to ten and I’ll win via forfeit. I suggest you make it because I want to show the world that not only can I beat you, but give Santos a taste of what’s coming her way.
Adams tosses the microphone as his music kicks back up and he moves around the ring.
Hanako Vs. Kayla Taylor
Taylor tried to keep Hanako grounded with a series of suplexes and mat-based holds. Hanako kept trying to fire herself up and strike Taylor but Taylor kept slamming her to the mat. Taylor had Hanako dazed after hitting her Merry Go Round (Spin Fisherman Suplex). Taylor tried for a cover but Hanako was able to kick out. Taylor started to set up for Broadway Lights (Cross Rhodes) but Hanako flipped legs up and countered with a headscissors takedown. Hanako started to get that momentum with quick strikes and then delivered a dropkick as she came off the second turnbuckle. Hanako clapped in the air above her head as she measured up Taylor and was able to hit a float over DDT. Hanako made it to the corner and caught Taylor with a big running knee strike to the face as she stood. The fans knew what was next and Hanako hit Geitō (Starship pain) and picked up a pinfall.
WINNER: Hanako via pinfall @ 9:03
Daniel Daemon Vs. Gabrielle Montgomery
Montgomery looked up at Daemon but wasn’t phased as he stood there, cold. She tried to open up with a whip across the ring but he was able to hold himself in place. Montgomery went right at him with a hard right hand to the face that he rubbed his jaw for a nod. She hit the ropes and Daemon rocked her with a big boot. Montgomery rolled out of the ring and collected herself. She climbed onto the apron and caught Daemon with an uppercut and then a step up kick as she held onto the ropes. A big springboard roundhouse kick caught Daemon square in the jaw and staggered him into the corner. Montgomery ran and hit a big corner splash and continued to land blows. Daemon exploded out of the corner and kept knocking his opponent down with strikes. Montgomery looked for a Lou Thesz Press but Daemon countered into a spinebuster. Daemon had a pin attempt get two before she could kick out. Montgomery was able to get to her feet and drove a boot into the gut of Daemon. Daemon lifted Montgomery up above his head for Ritual Disembowelment II (Gorilla Press Gutbuster) but she countered into GaBuster (reverse Lungblower)! The crowd was stunned as Montgomery was able to get to the top and hit a moonsault. She went into a cover and Daemon kicked out just before two and powered to his feet. He unloaded lefts and rights into the gut of Montgomery before slamming her down hard with a big chokeslam. Daemon took a deep breath as he collected himself and lifted her up slowly and looked around the Warehouse. A second chokeslam laid out Montgomery and he put his knee into her chest as he pinned her shoulders to hand her a loss, her first in Empire Wrestling.
