WARREN, OHIO
REPORT BY TIMOTHY BATES, PWTORCH CORRESPONDENT


If you attend a live event, please send results in the format of the following report to pwtorch@pwtorch.com. Thanks!


(1) Heavy Machinery defeated Forgotten Sons (without Cutler). Great job with crowd by HM.

(2) Nikki Cross & Dakota Kai defeated Vanessa Bourne & Aliyah. Great insanity by the baby face team. Nikki pinned Aliyah.

Marcel Barthel walked around the arena for five minutes with boos before pretending to cut a promo. Then Lars Sullivan came out for the match. Lars played the face role. Lars took 30 seconds of offense then hit him with a slam to get the squash victory. He then beat the living hell out of Marcel. He was treated like the Braun Strowman-type monster. Did the arm thing too.

(3) Donovan Dijak beat Dan Matha. People used this as the bathroom match. DD won. Pretty boring.

Tidbit: Sarah Schreiber, the NXT host, gets the bell ready when she knows the match is about to end. It’s a dead giveaway of when the match is ending.

(4) War Raiders beat Undisputed Era via DQ. The DQ came when Roderick Strong pulled the ref out of the ring. Great match. Undisputed Era put over War Machine well.

(5) Ricochet beat Tyler Breeze for North American Title. Ricochet won in a phenomenal match. Best match of the night so far.

(6) Shayna Baszler beat Candice LeRae via tapout. There were people in the crowd chanting awful sexist things at Shayna.

(7) Tomasso Ciampa beat Johnny Gargano and Adam Cole in a great match. Some call backs to DIY however made Ciampa look stupid some times. Johnny was over cause it’s near Cleveland. He and UE had the most shirts.
