As she hit the ring, streamers went flying from the crowd as she posed. Hirano was joined with Jason Evans on stage before Evans left to the back.

Be Dishonorable

The Angle: Kaito Hirano and Jason Evans were walking backstage and they saw AJ Jenkynx sitting by himself. He was sitting in catering as the two men approached him. Hirano said a few things to Evans before Evans talked to Jenkynx. Evans told Jenkynx that it was clear he was being overlooked when it came to Empire Wrestling and that’s exactly what Dishonor is about. Hirano started Dishonor to make sure no one was overlooked. Evans gave Jenkynx an offer to join them before the two left him to think about it.

TAG TEAM CHAMPIONSHIP
Social Elite (c) Vs. The 323

• This match was announced before we cut to the backstage area where both Page and Kash were with trainers talking about not being fit for the match. Sara Logan came into the room and asked what was the issue. Kash and Page refused to answer and said they had “doctors notes” for both of them from competing tonight.
• The 323 stormed into the room but was quickly pulled away by trainers. Logan told the Social Elite that she knew they were just playing games. She informed them that they’d compete this Saturday at Hype or they’d be stripped of the titles.

Casey Grey Vs. Outlaw

• Outlaw made his return to the EW Warehouse to a pop from the crowd and was excited as he moved around the stage. The World Champion, Casey Grey, walked out next with her title around her waist. The two were in the ring for this non-title bout and the match quickly started with a lock up.
• Grey was out to make this a quick match as she rolled Outlaw up with a small package but he popped up at one. Outlaw hit a springboard crossbody as he hit the ropes and took down Grey. Outlaw rolled to his feet and looked for a senton but Grey moved out of the way.

She was able to get her footing under her and got to her knees before delivering a belly to back suplex.
• Outlaw looked for a clothesline but Grey countered with her Copperhead Road (Cobra Clutch/Single Knee Backstabber).
• The back was bothering Outlaw and Grey stomped on it multiple times.

WINNER: Casey Grey via pinfall @ 19:33

After the match, Casey Grey snatched the title from the referee as she jumped onto the middle turnbuckle and showed it off to the fans. She placed it on her shoulders and looked around the Warehouse. "She's a Genius" by Jet started to play as the crowd went bonkers. Grey looked around the Warehouse before seeing Nessa Wall standing at the back of the crowd in one section. The two locked eyes and had a staredown as the show came to close.
