Dark Match #3 for Above & Beyond III
Breakout Battle Royal
Charlie Rossi, Xander Blade, Dean Stark, Nico Touza, Seth Lawless, Colt Jagger, SteelSpur, Kendahl Wright
DING! DING! DING!
The match quickly gets off to a hot start as Dean and Colt quickly begin trading jabs, while Nico catches Charlie Rossi off guard with a punch to the face that knocks him on his ass, allowing Touza to take control by mounting Rossi and attacking him with lefts and rights. Kendahl and Xander also get into a fist fight, but Kendahl quickly puts Xander up against the corner and begins attacking him with multiple fists to the head. Meanwhile, SteelSpur goes charging in at Seth Lawless, who is just leaning up against the ropes, checking his nails. Seth sees SteelSpur coming and smiles as he waits for SS to come close enough before ducking out of the way, yanking the top rope down as well, and allowing SS to go flying over the top rope, to the outside area, where he hits the ground hard!
ELIMINATED: SteelSpur
Clement: And that’s the first elimination of the matchup!
Grayson: That’s also the end of SteelSpur’s career and it was only like, what, 12 seconds? That’s good.
Seth looks and sees the ref on the outside checking on SteelSpur and shoots the eliminated opponent a smirk before clapping his hands together and turns back towards the rest of the group. Colt in one corner is now trying to send Dean over the rope, but is quickly stopped by Nico Touza, who nails him in the back of the head and peels him away from Dean while throwing him to the ground. Nico then attempts to take over Colt’s job and eliminate Dean himself, seemingly having less of a difficult time doing that as Dean is now holding on the top rope for dear life. Meanwhile, Seth has turned his attention to the duo of Xander Blade and Kendahl Wright. He quickly turns Kendahl around and nearly takes his head off with a clothesline! The audience boos once Seth grabs Kendahl off of the mat and tosses him over the rope and out of the ring onto the ground outside!
ELIMINATED: Kendahl Wright
Clement: And there goes Kendahl Wright!
Grayson: He had such promise...and a misspelled name.
Clement: You on your Johnny Karma mode right now?
Grayson: Hail Karma.
Seth takes a second to admire the second elimination he just made before Xander Blade comes charging in. He nails Blade in the gut with a right boot before getting him into the suplex position. Seth lifts Xander up...then drops him to the outside, forcing his back to collide with the hard ground that surrounds the ring as Xander is officially eliminated from the matchup!
ELIMINATED: Xander Blade
Clement: And there goes Xander Blade. Seth Lawless is on a roll!
Grayson: So, this guy’s probably gonna be the only that keeps his job?
Clement: Jesus Christ, Grayson! Enough about the jobs! They’ll be alright.
Grayson: ...Did you just yell at me? Did you seriously just yell at me? I’m so proud of you!
Seth quickly turns around to look at the rest of the field, but is quickly met with a leg lariat that knocks him down to the mat from Charlie Rossi! Rossi takes a moment to look down at the laid out Lawless, but that seems to cost him as Jagger comes running in, wraps his legs around Rossi’s neck, and sends the big man flying with a hurricarana! Rossi quickly gets to his feet, obviously caught off guard with that hurricarana, but is met with a knee to the face from Jagger that forces him to lean up against the nearby ropes. Jagger quickly seems to be gearing up an attack, but that is stopped short by Nico Touza, who catches him with a lariat so hard that he flips in the air before landing. As Rossi continues to lean up against the ropes, Lawless comes charging in and nails him with a dropkick that sends him over the ropes and onto the apron. Lawless then hits a baseball slide that shoves Rossi off of the apron and onto the ground for the elimination!
ELIMINATED: Charlie Rossi
Clement: And there goes Rossi!
Grayson: And another elimination by Lawless! That’s four now, ain’t it?
Clement: Yes, indeed it is!
While Lawless admires his handiwork, Touza quickly cracks him from behind with a forearm shot to the back of the head that forces Lawless to lean forward against the ropes. Touza takes this advantage and tries to throw Lawless over the ropes and successfully does so, but Lawless falls on his back on the apron. Touza uses his right boot to try and shove Lawless off of the apron, but the opportunity seems to eliminate the man with already all of the eliminations has come and gone as he clutches on tight to the bottom rope. Touza lets out an annoyed groan before turning around and getting Dean Stark’s right shoulder driven into his midsection as Stark connects with a spear! The audience boos as Stark quickly grabs Touza and attempts to throw him over the ropes. only for Touza to land on the apron back first.
Clement: Touza and Stark are really trying to win this thing, Grayson!
Grayson: If I’m them, I’m making sure I get rid of Seth Lawless! The guy has four eliminations already and could get even more eliminations!
While Dean begins using his boots to try and shove Nico off of the apron and onto the ground. Colt Jagger is slowly making his way up to both feet when he notices Seth Lawless doing the same on the other side of the ropes. Once Seth’s up to both feet, Colt charges in and looks to eliminate Seth, but Seth seems to catch on far too quickly as he drops down, yanking the top rope down as well, and allows Colt to sail over that rope and fall right down onto the ground for another elimination for the Michigander!
ELIMINATED: Colt Jagger
Clement: That’s another elimination from Seth Lawless!
Grayson: WOW! It seems to me like he’s the only who’s actually eliminating people!
Clement: Five superstars have been eliminated, all thanks to Seth Lawless!
Grayson: We might be seeing the next big thing here, Clement!
As Dean continues to struggle trying to eliminate Nico, now stomping away at the New Yorker, Seth Lawless cockily enters the ring after his last elimination, waving goodbye to Colt Jagger. who just realizes that he was eliminated. Seth then sets his sights on Dean Stark, who has his back turned to him, before charging in, grabbing Dean Stark’s legs, and sending him over the top rope and down to the ground for another elimination to a stunned reaction from the audience!
ELIMINATED: Dean Stark
Clement: And another elimination by Seth Lawless!
Grayson: This guy is on freaking fire! Jesus Christ!
Seth quickly takes a step back and waits for Nico to get to his feet. Touza is slow to get to his feet, but once he does, Lawless comes charging in, looking to get another elimination right here, this one to seal the victory, but Touza catches him with a forearm shot to the face that sends Lawless stumbling backwards! Touza then uses the ropes to springboard himself towards Lawless, but Lawless ducks the lariat Touza was willing to hit him with! Touza lands on his feet and quickly turns around before charging in towards Lawless, only for Lawless to illegally poke Touza in the eyes before grabbing him by the head and tossing him over the top rope and down onto the ground for the final elimination!
DING! DING! DING!
Winner: Seth Lawless
