TEAM Invitational Sweet Sixteen Set
The Sweet Sixteen for the 2008 TEAM Invitational Tournament is set after a rousing second round. The action moves from college campuses to the four regional final sites: London, Orlando, Minneapolis and Los Angeles.
All four number one seeds - Lindsay Troy, Faceless; who revealed himself as Mike Randalls, Dan Ryan and "Triple X" Sean Stevens - advanced, Troy being the only one that had to break a sweat in her second round affair against Ace Mason, a quarterfinalist from last year. Randalls, Ryan and Stevens all won laughers, Stevens especially whose opponent, heated rival Ice Tre, couldn't even show up to the arena.
The match of the night, however, was the affair in Burlington, Vermont, between London's second seed Ravager and the seventh seed Cameron Cruise. Cruise seized control of the match early, but the current TEAM Challenge Champion staged a furious comeback, culminating in his escape from Cruise's Emerald Fusion attempt into a vicious brainbuster.
Fusenshoff also made a return trip to the regional semifinals with a win over High Flyer. In a back-and-forth match, Flyer was about to deliver the finishing blow via a flying body press, but Fuse evaded the attack at the last possible second and scored a pinfall victory.
The full slate for the Sweet Sixteen is as follows:
London
(1) Lindsay Troy vs. (4) Jonathan Marx
(2) Ravager vs. (3) Larry Tact
Orlando
(1) Mike Randalls vs. (4) Dusk
(2) Chip Friendly vs. (6) Bryan Storms
Minneapolis
(1) Dan Ryan vs. (4) Troy Douglas
(2) Donovan Astros vs. (6) Fusenshoff
Los Angeles
(1) Sean Stevens vs. (12) MDK
(7) Olvir Arsvinnar vs. (3) Stylin' Kyle Roberts
In a related note, TEAM officials are investigating the appearance of a flying squirrel wearing an American Idol mini-tee that interfered after the finishes of both Tact/Frankie Scott and Astros/MaX-Files. Scott, also known as the American Idol, has denied involvement, and several leads have linked the squirrel to Ryan Seacrest. More on this as it develops.
