David Osbourne
Vs.
Justice
Recap: The match starts off between the 2 big men with a lock up and Osbourne forcing Justice into the corner and slapping him on the break. After some jaw jacking, Osbourne goes on the attack and quickly gets Justice off his feet with shot after shot. Surprisingly Osbourne is in control of Justice and keeps him off of his feet. After several minutes Justice is able to get back to his feet and nails Osbourne in the jaw with a rear elbow and goes on the attack. After several strikes Justice hits Osbourne with a Side Walk Slam and gets the 1-2-3 for the pin.

Winner: Justice

Review: I am quickly becoming a fan of Justice, and nott ashamed to admit it. He is just an old school brawler in the vein of Undertaker, Big Boss Man, Kevin Nash, and many others. David Osbourne seems like a pretty good in ring worker (this is the first time I am seeing him in the ring) and his movements and build remind me a lot of the late, great Big John Studd. This match moved kind of slow, which is to be expected of 2 men that are 200+ lbs, but was still a pretty well put together match.
Next we see a clip of what appears to be someone watching AAPW Heavyweight Champion Edmund “Livewire” McGuire arriving at the venue. All you can see is that it looks like he is being watched from the trees. Then it goes to black….

Zakk Sawyer & Dalton Diamond
Vs.
Minor Threat (Brandon Espinoza & Ace Hawkins)

Recap: The match starts between Brandon Espinoza and Dalton Diamond with Espinoza quickly taking control. After a quick tag Hawkins flys in off the top rope with a Flying elbow to Diamond. After several quick tags Minor Threat gets a 2 count on Diamond. Diamond is able to kick out and gets a tag to bring in Sawyer, who is able to take control of Hawkins. Diamond and Sawyer trade quick tags back and forth keeping control of Hawkins. After several minutes Hawkins is able to bring Espinoza back in who quickly regains control. After a combination Top Rope Splash/Neck Breaker, Minor Threat nails The Combover finisher and gets the 3 count.

Winner: Minor Threat

Review: Minor Threat work well together and both men are fantastic in the ring. This was a well-paced match with several high light spots. People need to keep an eye on Hawkins and Espinoza.

“Old School Warrior” Ax Allwardt
Vs.
“Farmer” Billy Hills

Recap: The 2 men come out to the ring and suddenly we hear Heath Hatton’s entrance music. As Hills is being checked by the referee and looking over his shoulder for Hatton when suddenly Allwardt attacks. Hills is quickly able to reverse things and take control and things move to the floor. After things go back into the ring Allwardt is able to take control of Farmer until Hills nails a Lariat style clotheline from the corner. After several clothelines, Farmer gets a 2 count before Ax rolls to the floor to slow things down. Ax moves back into the ring, and is able to take control once again. After an attempted interference from Gaylord Stevens, Hills gets a 2 count then nails Ax with a Swinging neck breaker. Hills heads outside to go to the top, but wastes time and allows Ax to get back to his feet. Hills blocks an attempted Superplex by Ax, but Ax is able to take control of Farmer again after several strikes. Ax gets up and is able to hit the Superplex and get the win.

Winner: “Old School Warrior” Ax Allwardt

Review: Ax Allwardt is a man on a mission. He is determined to take out Heath Hatton and will go through anyone and everyone to accomplish that. This was a great match between 2 big men.
Next is a promo from Team Overkill discussing embarrassing losses and setbacks. The talk about how they will fight inch by inch to succeed and remain Tag champs.
Another clip of someone watching Livewire at a park with a young boy…. Someone is stalking the champ and looking for a way into his head I think.

Team XXX (Jay Spade & Joey O’Riley)
Vs.
AAPW Tag Team Champs
Team Overkill (Christian Rose & Matt Cage)

Recap: This is a Tag Team title match between 2 fast paced teams. All 4 men have pretty amazing high flying and technical skills. The match starts off with Joey O’Riley and Matt Cage in the ring and things quickly take off with Cage in control. Cage and O’Riley trade holds back and forth keeping things moving slow at first. Cage goes outside to break things up and taunts the fans before moving back into the ring. O’Riley nails Cage with several moves and gets a 2 count before each man tags in his respective partner. After Rose gets over confident and shows off to the fans, Spade is able to take control. Spade, who is much smaller than Rose, is surprisingly able to hold control and tags O’Riley back in. Things begin going back and forth again before O’Riley is able to get a 2 count on Rose. O’Riley brings Spade back in who speeds things up and begins hitting move after move then tagging O’Riley back in who quickly nails a few more moves before getting another 2 count. Cage and Rose are able to get a tag and take down Spade with a Stunner from Cage into an Elbow from Rose. Cage then gets a 2 count on Spade. After several 2 counts for each team, Spade tags himself back into the match and is quickly taken out by Team Overkill. Matt Cage gets the pin and the win for Team Overkill, who remain tag team champs.

Winners and still AAPW tag team champs: Team Overkill

Review: I expected this match to move a little faster with the 4 men involved. At times it seemed kind of sluggish and was more of a brawling match than a high flying match, like the 2 teams are known for. All in all a great match though.
After the match Chris Hagstrom says Sean Chambers, owner of AAPW, is calling him over the headset. It then goes back to the ring with Spade and O’Riley arguing over the loss as they go to the back. As the cameras follow them it catches Hagstrom and Chambers talking about “something big”. The last thing we hear is Sean Chambers has signed a match for June 30th at Summer Chaos. Edmund “Livewire” McGuire will face off against “The Masterpiece” Mike Masters…… Things are definitely getting chaotic leading into Summer Chaos. What will happen with Masters remains to be seen. Hopefully Sean Chambers knows what he is doing and this doesn’t backfire.

Another well put together episode.. The matches had some slow spots, but many more highlight spots…
