With Lethal Lottery in the books, we are on the road to the fourth edition of the biggest show of the year - Kingdom Come IV. However, given that there is still plenty of time before Chaos Rises and the Lethal Lottery has sparked the interest of everyone as to where things are going. Some are obvious but others have yet to be revealed.
So what do you think will be or would like to the final card for Kingdom Come IV?
Assuming that there is going to be a similar sized card to last year, that gives a total of 9 matches; although something tells me that there may be another match and a rather large edition of Aftershock due to the vast size of the roster.
WZCW World Heavyweight Title
Professor Steven Kurtsey (c) vs Ty Burna vs Barbosa
Reasons: Obviously, Kurtsey is in the match as the World Champion and Ty won the Lethal Lottery, plus WZCW has a traditionalist tendency to stick with a 1 on 1 contest for the main event but, right now, given the events prior to and during the Lethal Lottery, Barbosa fits so easily into this situation. Ty could very easily be distressed by his failure to control Barbosa and given that he steamrollered the Apostles and even had Ty showing fear, Barbosa could easily be placed in the match by a vengeful Bateman. The only problem I have with this is that going this way could leave the Champion a thrid wheel in the main event. Mind you, then I would have him retain and go off to defend the title elsewhere post-KC while Ty and Barbosa tear the ever-loving shit out of each other for the next two PPVs.
WZCW World Tag Team Titles
RRR (c) vs Sons of Destiny
Reasons: The Tag Team division is not in the best of shape right now, leaving a rematch from LL being the only real option at the moment. However, there is some potential for more to appear - a team from the Apostles could arise (S.H.I.T. and Alhazred perhaps) as challengers should KC really take on a Chaos Rising theme with the Apostles challenging for everything while Action Saboteur could easily end up here too.
WZCW EurAsian Title
Black Dragon (c) vs Celeste Crimson vs Chris KO
Reasons: Mainly, that it did not happen at LL. There may be some trouble for KO for not following Ty's orders and taking the title from Dragon but with the possibility of all the title making their way to the AoC, I think the Harbinger of Chaos will be looking for his protege to get one more chance.
Last Man Standing Match for the WZCW Elite X Title
Steven Holmes (c) vs Big Dave
Reasons: This one rather speaks for itself. Holmes has taken some giant strides in the past few months and with Dave setting his sights on him and given the bloody way their feud opened up, I can see this being a brutal affair. The only change I might make here is the Elite X title not being on the line.
King For A Day Elimination Chamber
Showtime vs Gordito vs Matt Tastic vs Constantine vs Baller vs Drake Callihan
Reasons: Wow, it was difficult to get this match down to just six competitors as there are so many in the fed right now who are floating about that upper-mid card status. The likes of Toyota, Barbosa and Blade could easily have ended up in this match but I went with a combination of returnees from last year's match (Gordito and Tastic), some old hands (Showtime and Drake) and a couple who I think deserve a chance (Baller and Constantine).
WZCW Mayhem Title
Ace Stevens (c) vs Justin Cooper
Reasons: This is probably the match I have the least faith in. The Mayhem title is essentially WZCW's TV title and Stevens could easily drop it or Cooper could get his rematch before KC. There are also a vast number of guys just starting out in the fed and I doubt whether they should just be thrown in to an appearance on the biggest show. I could see Bowen added though should he reappear for a longer stint.
Street Fight
Blade vs Rush
Reasons: There needs to be something personal happening outside of the title matches for KC and I think this could be it. With all his talk of Destiny, Blade could easily see Rush as having denied him it at LL and in retaliation, Blade could thwart Rush's attempts to qualify for the KFAD. I could also see Drake in Rush's place here with Rush joining Action Saboteur against the Apostles.
Titus vs Everest
Reasons: It's tradition, isn't it? But in all seriousness, I am not sure where Titus goes from here. He has fallen off a cliff since winning the title at AoN and Everest is becoming less and less of a factor but I still think that there is room for a tiebreaker
Apostles of Chaos vs Action Saboteur
Reasons: There have been troubles between the Apostles and the Dudes with Attitudes already so I think that some form of this will take place. It could be made a six-man match should a third Dude be found or these teams could also be added to the Tag Titles match.
One alternative could be another way to build the Ty takeover and his need to be World Champion by having Barbosa vs Wasabi Toyota square off for a place in the World Title match later in the evening
