“Final Countdown” plays as the feed begins for another week of Anarchy. Danielson angrily walks to the ring with mic in hand, “You think you’re funny don’t you Jay? You think you can just bruise and batter me within an inch of my life and get away with it? I don’t think so. Get your ass out here and look me in my black eye or else you’ll get a lot worse than that…”
World Class Alliance’s second PPV kicks off in style, with rookie send-offs, cagematch drama, new alliances and broken friendships.
Zeus opens the show standing in the ring with newly appointed head trainer of the dojo, Ultimo Dragon. He then invited the two trainees into the ring handing one a mic. “Oi my name is Aomine Hayashi , and I am one of two trainees from this dojo class. After our debut tag match at Heartbreak Mosh, I will be departing to Anarchy to start my excursion. I hope for nothing more than your support, thank you.”
Full Throttle are in Shizuoka for this, the follow up to the dramatic conclusion of ALL OR NOTHING. Here to welcome the crowd is GM Toi Kojima, and Special Advisor Satoshi Kojima. Toi makes the opening address, which is uncharacteristically emotional for the start of a show as he expresses his gratitude to Kojima, to World Class Alliance and the Full Throttle fans for supporting the promotion. Toi has to pause to collect himself as he thanks the crowd for believing in him and promises to continue to make them proud. Special Advisor Kojima has to take over the opening call duty, but not before putting his arm around the emotional Toi and giving him a pat on the back that makes Toi stagger slightly.
The show opens as we hear the music of Ben-K begin to play. His newly won Openweight Title sat across his shoulder as he walked to the ring, very proud of himself. He grabs the mic, “I’m sure no one here expected me to be champion after all this huh? It’s okay to admit it. Even the people who wanna go “Oh I did!” had no idea I would beat my first two round opponents in under a minute! I’m not just the best wrestler in Anarchy, I’m the best wrestler, period.”
A video appears on the monitor of General Manager Kobashi. He notifies the crowd that since we have two teams that are currently undefeated in tag team competition and have no tag team champions. At All Or Nothing the two teams will face off the belts. At All Out it will be The Golden Lovers of Mike Bailey and Kota Ibushi vs B.E.E.F of Shotaro Ashino and Kinya Okada. The crowd applauds rather loudly.
Bell rings and the two man charge as Ishida hits a Enzugiri straight to the chest. This has been a theme for matches featuring Nobu wanting to kick up the high speed just a bit. However, Ishida was expecting him to over commit and had a strike lined up. As Ishida snapmared Nobu right over and fires off a kick to the back.
The opening show graphic pops up on the screen as the audience and crowd in attendance are met with “Final Countdown”, the theme song of Bryan Danielson. He walks to the ring and motions for the microphone. “Last week I wrestled in trios action but everyone knows I’ve always been a singles wrestler. No partner or partners to worry about. Tonight I want to be a singles wrestler. Anyone in that Anarchy locker room who thinks they can step up, feel free to do so now.”
