The next…situation got out of hand quickly. The First was scheduled to face off against Beast and was accompanied to the ring by Felix Red, who originally dressed as Dope revealed his identity on the last Aggression.
Beast was wary of Felix’s presence on the outside and was on the defensive from the outset as The First was able to ground the former champion and take aim on his right knee with not only submission locks, but quick strikes from various running angles as well.
Felix, apparently bored with the affair reached up and pulled the rope down during an attempted reversal of an Irish Whip and Beast tumbled to the floor. Beast was up immediately and in Felix Red’s face and gave him a shove before turning to get back into the ring, but it only got him a club upside the back of his head for his trouble. Felix rolled Beast back in and followed, joining The First in a two on one beatdown. After having no luck restoring order, the referee called for the bell, handing Beast a win by disqualification.
Winner: Beast via DQ
As the bell rang, the action continued as neither Felix or The First let up. A huge crowd roar signaled the arrival of Cross however who dove through the ropes and began to lay into both Felix and The First with right hands. Somewhere in the mayhem, Dan Ryan made his way down the ramp. While the brawl ensued in the ring, Ryan was giving orders to officials at ringside, and the bell rang signifying the beginning of the match between Felix Red and The First.
With Beast incapacitated, it wasn’t long before the two men overpowered Cross as well. Felix gave Ryan a look, but Ryan made no move nor made any expression other than simply looking on. The First and Felix stood Cross up and quickly hit their tag team finisher – Art of Despair .
After that, Felix covered for the easy three count and the victory. Ryan stared Beast and Cross down as they laid on the mat, then backed his way up the ramp with a smirk on his face.
Winner: Felix Red
DT: Next up folks, we've got two champions and former permanent tag team partners teaming up once again as the reiging Intercontinental Champion The Sergeant teams up with EPW Television Champion James Irish to take on the team of Troy Douglas and "Simple Wrestling" Andrew Rossi.
MN: Both of these guys, Rossi and Douglas have been gunning for the champs leading into Black Dawn. This will be a nice litmus test of where they are, and I'd love to see them both challenge for those belts at the big show.
DT: Both teams are already in the ring, as the commercial break ran a little long and it looks like Irish and Douglas will be the first to start off this stellar tag match.
MN: Stellar? Why is that? Because one team is composed of two supposed champions?
DM: How are they supposed champions Mike?
MN: Well first one cheated to gain his belt last week and the other... well let's just say the ref counted a little fast for him last week.
DM: I bet you wouldn't say that to their faces.
DT: Guys.. the match? Let's focus on it.
MN: Yeah guys the match.
DM: Whatever.
DT: The bell rings, Troy and James tie it up in the center of the ring and Irish quickly pushes Douglas against the ropes laying some elbows to his back. Irish whips him into the corner and charges in with a quick clothesline. Following it up now as he uses a take down to bring Douglas to the mat.
DM: Working on his leg now as Irish is laying some heavy kicks to it and now wraps his legs around it and slams it to the mat. Douglas slaps the mat in pain as Irish holds on to his leg for an awkward submission move. "Simply Wrestling" Andrew Rossi comes in from his corner and lays a kick to the face of Irish... and another! The Sarge comes storming in to take out Rossi and both men are being seperated by the ref.
MN: Come on and get up already Douglas.
DM: He's trying.. but so is Irish as both men reach their feet at the same time. They hook up again and Douglas with a quick knee to the gut of Irish.
MN: What the hell? Why is Douglas holding his leg?
DT: Could it be because Irish was working on that leg before?
MN: I guess...
DT: Well it doesn't look to affect him that much as Douglas now has Irish in his corner and Douglas is going to town on Irish with a series of punches to the gut. Douglas now applies a choke hold as Rossi tags himself in...
DM: The ref is trying to break up the hold as Rossi comes in with a spear to the gut! Douglas backs off like he did nothing as Irish slumps out of the corner and Rossi is standing over him smiling.
MN: That's good teamwork.
DT: So far, I agree. Rossi picks Douglas up and hooks him for a swinging neckbreaker! Rossi goes for a quick cover... 1.....2...NO! Irish kicks out.
DM: Rossi looks a bit angry with the count but ignores it as he picks up Irish again and swings him across the ring.. Irish hits the ropes and Rossi nails him with a dropkick... Irish doesn't fall though as he stumbles backwards and grabs hold of the ropes to keep himself from falling. Rossi charges in and CLOTHESLINES Irish out of the ring to the floor.
MN: Get him Douglas!
DT: That's exactly what he's doing, Rossi tries to go out of the ring and the ref pushes him back as Douglas stalks over to the fallen James Irish. Douglas picks him up and whips him into THE STEEL STEPS! The ref doesn't even see it as he is being easily distracted by Rossi.
DM: Douglas picks up Irish and hooks him.. oh my god he's going to suplex him on those steps!! WAIT THE SERGEANT OUT OF NOWHERE nails Douglas with a clothesline in the back of the head.
MN: Rossi get the ref to break this up!!
DT: Mike it was okay before but not now?
MN: Well The Sergeant is cheating.
DM: What was Douglas doing then?
MN: Being a proffesional.
DT: Wow... anyways folks the ref is now outside the ring breaking up what's become a fist fight between Douglas and The Sarge on the outside.
DM: Rossi meanwhile has slipped Irish back into the ring and has his legged hooked for a pin.. the ref finally sees it and slides in.. 1.....2...NO! Irish with a foot on the ropes.
MN: Oh garbage that should have been a three count.
DT: Rossi agrees with you. He is determined to get a three count on Irish as he yanks Irish away from the ropes and hooks his leg again... 1....2..NO! Irish with his shoulder up this time. Rossi is livid now as he yanks Irish up by the hair he hooks Irish and Irish out of nowhere with a kick to the gut.. and a DDT!! The Sarge is yelling for Irish to get the tag in and James Irish is slowly making his way to the corner.
DM: But so is Rossi.. and Rossi is there first! Douglas gets the tag in charges at Irish and YANKS him away by the leg just as Irish had his hand out ready for the tag. The Sarge is screaming now and tries to get in the ring but the ref is quick to break it up! Douglas picks up Irish and gets ready to whip him into his corner but Irish reverses it and sends Douglas flying into the REF!
MN: The ref is out cold.. Rossi and Douglas' chances just got better!
DM: Rossi is looking to take quick advantage of this as he gets in the ring and charges right at Irish who ducks a clothesline nails Rossi in the gut and HITS HIM WITH A JUMPING DDT! The Sarge is in the ring now too as he is working on Douglas in the corner..
DT: This is amazing The Sarge and Irish has complete control over their oppenents now and each one of them is laying into
them in seperate ring corners. Irish nails Rossi in the corner with a stiff clothesline as Douglas and The Sarge spill out to the outside of the ring.
MN: Come on ref get up and stop this madness!
DT: But I thought you liked the fact that the ref got knocked out.
MN: I did then but not now.
DM: You amaze me more and more. WHOA! Irish just charged at Rossi in the corner and tried to spear him through the turnbuckles but Rossi moved and Irish is now dazed as he went shoulder first into the steel post! Rossi slides to the outside of the ring and goes for the time keeper's chair!
MN: Here we go!
DT: Rossi slides back in the ring and The Sarge who is easily handling Douglas on the outside sees Rossi with the chair in the ring! The Sarge slides in spins Rossi around before he can connect with the chair and yanks the chair right out of Rossi's hands. Rossi is now staring The Sarge down and look at this the ref is starting to stir.
DM: So is Irish! Irish sees Rossi's back to him and tackles him from behind sending Rossi head first into the steel chair in The Sarges hands!!! THE BELL RINGS!
DT: What in the world?!?
MN: This is excellent! Rossi and Troy Douglas just won this match by DQ for the Sarge using the chair on Rossi!
TF: The winner of the match....as a result of a Disqualification....the team of "SIMPLY WRESTLING" ANDREW ROSSI and TROOOOOYY DOUGLAAAASS!!!
DT: A cheap win by Rossi and Douglas here on Aggression...
MN: Cheap?? That was smart as hell. You wish you thought of it, Thomas.
DT: Not really, no.
DM: It may have been cheap, but it may also be a preview of the sort of things the champs will have to be ready for to hang on to those belts.
DT: We'll be right back after this!!
