Anderson: The following tag team contest is scheduled for one fall!
The Beginning is the End is the Beginning plays throughout a now darkened arena, the beats build as lightning like strobes flash around the place, Phoenix appears on the stage to a series of boos while he slowly scans the arena. After a couple seconds, he begins to slowly walk toward the ring but stops when he reaches the bottom
Anderson: Introducing first, from Heliopolis, weighing in at 213 pounds, Phoenix!
He turns around as Bliss cuts in to a massive hearing of boos as dark red lights start to flash. Blade walks out on to the stage heading straight down and walking to meet Phoenix, he acknowledges him as he heads straight into the ring with his partner for the evening.
Anderson: And his partner, from Dublin, Ireland, weighing in at 235 pounds, Blade!
Connor: These two have certainly been having quite a close alliance which has had its flaws, but in the end, who will be the first the to betray the other to get an Elite X Title shot?
Cohen: Why do you slander these men so harshly CC? Theyre not going to be lead by the belief that gold will only complete them unlike that Elite X Champ of ours!
Enya Stomp plays as Chris Beckford appear at the top of the stage, he spreads his arms out and looks down at the ring as both Phoenix and Blade stand in the ring. He shrugs his shoulders and bolts down to the ring, sliding in. Hes quickly on his feet again before jumping onto the bottom left turnbuckle. He spreads his arms again and does a backflip off of it as his opponents stand back and watch in a sarcastic manner.
Anderson: Their opponents, first, from Leeds, England, weighing in at 226 pounds, Chris Beckford!
Headstrong immediately kicks as the short bursts of gold and silver flash at the top of the ramp as the Elite X Champion emerges from the top of the stage, raising his belt to the crowd and his arm outstretched, he paces down the ramp with a smile on his face as the crowd continues to cheer for him.
Anderson: And from the West End of London. England, weighing in at 190 pounds, his is the WZCW Elite X Champion, Austin Reynolds!
Connor: Austins been on quite a roll with the Elite X title, but how will this match turn out given hes pairing with a former rival to face a pair who have been doing a lot of plotting behind peoples backs?
Cohen: Well this is why Reynolds has to be careful, hes letting the gold get to his head and believing people want to team with him or be on his show when hes purely creating enemies. Its no wonder why they want that belt off of him!
Reynolds climbs into the ring and slaps fives with Beckford as they head to the opposite corner to Phoenix and Blade as they get ready for this tag match, the champion will start first against Phoenix, the tag specialist. Reynolds hands over his belt to the ref who passes it over to the timekeeper as he signals for this match to get under way. Phoenix immediately tags Blade in and both try for a double clothesline against Reynolds who ducks under, bounces off the ropes and hits a spinning heel kick to take down Blade and then emerges back on his feet to hit a clothesline on Phoenix who rolls out of the ring, he heads over to Blade whos on one knee but is playing possum and fireman carrys him over his shoulder, landing flat on his back, Blade jumps to his feet and lands a legdrop on the champion.

He paces out of the corner before returning with a knee into the gut as Austin holds onto the ropes, Blade Irish Whips him to the opposite corner but Reynolds grabs the ropes and lifts himself up the air as Blade tries to tackle him but now has Reynolds behind him who shoves him into the turnbuckle head on followed by a quick kick the rib.

Reynolds pencil rolls the his corner and tags in Beckford who climbs the turnbuckle and measures the distance between him and Blade, looking for the Cross County, only for Blade to roll further from distance, so Beckford drops down to pursue the Prodigal Son, he reaches over and is met with a thumb to the eye as Blade tags Phoenix in who gets behind Beckford and hits a release German suplex on Beckford, he gets up and stomps on Beckfords left foot before getting him up on his feet and Irish whips him into the corner, Beckford bounces out of it and is met with a reverse backbreaker and then a cover by Phoenix, 1

Beckford holds onto his ribs to take a moment but runs at the ropes and uses it as a springboard to dropkick right into Phoenixs face, dropping him to the floor outside.
Cohen: Beckfords a coward, first he hurts a man in an illegal place and then dumps him down like garbage!
Connor: Only Phoenixs arrogance are to blame and Beckford was just taking advantage of the situation.
Beckford walks over to his teams corner as the referee is counting Phoenix out on the outside, Blade runs in to try and stop this while his back is turned, but the ref is quick to turn as Beckford tags Reynolds in only for the ref to stop him and tell him to get back to the outside as he didnt see the tag to which the crowd boos heavily from this, during this Phoenix has rolled slowly back into the ring despite holding his crotch in pain.

Austin tries to get the crowd going by starting a clap to motivate his partner whos in a painful position, the ref asks him if he wants to quit but Beckford shouts no, with his face in anguish, its hard to tell how long he will last but the crowd clapping is getting him motivated. Blade then shouts something at Phoenix who drops Beckford out of the clutch, heads over and tags him saying Finish him. Blade walks over and gets the worn down Beckford up onto his feet, he locks his arms in a double underhook hold, signalling for the The Halo, he looks around but then spots the turnbuckle, he unhooks Beckford and drags him to the corner, throwing him up on the turnbuckle with a smile on his face while saying You like heights, dont you Chris? and locks the underhook on the top rope but Reynolds starts shaking the ropes as Blade is losing his balance and Beckford gets an arm free and punches him in the face, which knocks Blade off the top rope and lands right back onto the canvas flat out. Despite being worn down Beckford slowly gets up onto the top rope and signals for the Cross County, as he lifts off into the air, Phoenix climbs inside the ring and spins in a 450 motion and hits the Rebirth on Beckford right as he is about to land the Cross County, the crowd is in awe of what has just occurred as Phoenix rolls outside and Blade rolls over to get an arm on Beckford, 1

Connor: I cant believe it! Beckford just kicked out after taking the Rebirth during a Cross County! This is unbelievable!
Cohen: Just means more punishment for him CC, nothing more.
Blade is sat up against the ropes after the failed pin attempt, holding his hair in disbelief as Phoenix is getting back up in his corner, so he proceeds to crawl over to him, still feeling the pain from taking the bump from the top rope as Beckford crawls over to Reynolds, despite being slowly is determined to get there. Reynolds and Phoenix both reaching out, desperate to get the tag first, it goes to Blade and Phoenix who rushes in and grabs Beckfords leg, dragging him up off the canvas only to met from a sudden dropkick from him and with a rush of adrenaline, gets the tag to Reynolds who comes storming in with the crowd behind him.
