Cole: Hello everyone and welcome to Night 2 of the J-Crown Tournament. I'm Michael Cole alongside Steve Lombardi and special guest, the UWF World Junior Heavyweight Champ, Austin Aries. Welcome champ.
Aries: Whatever. I warn you guys, the last time I did commentary, I was attacked. You guys better keep the rif raf away tonight.
Cole: That was very unfortunate as Kenny King heinously attacked you without provocation.
Lombardi: Maybe the provocation was Aries costing him his Cruiserweight tournament match.
Aries: Aries? It's MISTER ARIES! In fact its Champ. Or even better ...Sir! You need to show some respect. You're living in the Age of Aries now.
Cole: That's right Lombardi! Give the champ his respect. I apologize for him..He's from Brooklyn. But Champ 4 men remain in this J-Crown and the winner gets a title shot against you at a time of their choosing.
Aries: You mean they get to choose when I embarrass them? How quaint. I see the 4 men here aqnd I have an opinion on all 4 which I will give you...at a time of MY choosing.
Lombardi: Well the 4 men are Eddie Mansfield, Nigel McGuinness, Steve Regal & Paul London.
Cole: That's not all! The World Tag Team Champions are here. They will put those titles on the line against the 3 Time orld champions, The Skyscrapers. All that & more but right now we will have the HLW Ladies title match. Kelly Kelly won a battle Royale on night one and now she has a shot at Mercedes Martinez. Your thoughts, Mr Aries?
Aries: Unlike many of my compatriots I have no beef with the Women's division. They are inferior but they have their place..at the top of the card.
----VS----
Mercedes Martinez(c) vs Kelly Kelly- HLW Ladies Championship
(Kelly is an HLW original and gets a great ovation from the crowd. Mercedes seems a bit surly tonight. Hearing the cheers for Kelly seemed to annoy her as well. Bell rings and Martinez charges. Kelly drops and executes a Drop toe Hold. Mercedes lands face first. Mercedes scrambles to her feet but is slammed to the mat. Leg drop by KK. She covers for just a 1 count. Kelly goes for a spin kick but Martinez grabs her and hits a Capture Suplex. Kelly is sent to the ropes and Mercedes hits a Spinebuster. Kelly Kelly is writhing in pain. Mercedes is smirking. She slaps at the head of KK a few times then pulls her up by the hair. Looking for her finisher.
Out of nowhere Kelly rolls her up in a small pacckage! The ref counts! 1.. 2..
NOOOO!!!! Martinez kicks out! She has a look of shock on her face. Kelly still battered struggles in the corner to get to her feet. Mercedes charges and nails her in the face with a Running Boot! Martinez pounds Kelly's head into the mat a few times. She pulls her up...Pescadora Buster!! She covers for the 3 count.)
Winner and STILL HLW Ladies Champion: Mercedes Martinez
Cole: Martinez is still champ. She has been on a roll and we have seen radical change in her demeanor.
Lombardi: She's angry, Cole. She feels like she hasn't gotten a fair shot at the World title and she is making everyone pay.
Aries: Seems to me this could just be a timing thing. Giver her a week and I'm sure she'll be fine.
Cole: Ummm. Up next our first semi-final match of the night. Paul London of APW takes on WLW's Nigel McGuinness.
Lombardi: London got here bt defeatting Chris Candido while Nigel defeated Hakushi in an incredible match on night one.
Aries: London has some talent but he's a head case. He doesn't have the intestinal fortitude it takes to get to where I am. As for the bloke from Jolly ole England. If he was half as good as he thinks he is he would be half as good as I am.
----VS----
Paul London vs Nigel McGuinness
(London and Nigel take it slow early. Feeling each other out. London takes Nigel down with a hip Lock. Then goes for a Hammerlock, but Nigel is able to reverse it and now has London down. He jams a knee into the bicep of Paul. and really is trying to take the arm out the match. Nigel continues top work the arm awhile but Paul is able top use the ropes to vault himself free and he catches Nigel with a spinning back kick to the solar plexus. Then a sitout facebuster. London is trying to shake some feeling back into his right arm. McGuinness is up to his knees and London lets off a few hard kicks to his back. Paul then locks on a Figure Four Leglock.
Nigel is having to breath hard here which will sap your strength. He is able to free himself and lands a vicious Elbow which opens a gash over London's left eye. Nigel executes Divorde Court into a single arm DDT. London is writhing in pain now. Nigel Leans back against the ropes London finally rises Nigel comes forward with a kick to the face then falls back for the Jawbreaker Lariat but London Doropkicks him in the face sending Nigel over the top and to the floor. London wipes the blood from his face. Hits the ropes and takes off hitting a Somersault Plancha on Nigel. Both men are lying on the arena floor. London clutching at his arm. London is up first he rolls Nigel in the ring. He goes to lift McGuinness up for a Brainbuster but his arm gives way and he drops Nigel who hits an STO. He covers 1.. 2..
NO! London kicks out. Nigel gets Paul up and puts him on the buckle. Nigel sets up for the Tower of London. He hooks him but London pushes off the corner post and hits a Sliced Bread #2. In one motion he races up the other side and hits a Moonsault! 1.. 2..
3!)
Winner: Paul London
Cole: What a finish! London pulled that out from seemingly nowhere!
Lombardi: This kid London showed me something here bleeding and basically with ine arm. He somehow defeats the great Nigel McGuinness.
Aries: There's nothing grweat about McGuinness but I really thought he had this one in the bag. I guessed he choked on a krumpet.
Cole: So who will he face in the Finals tonight? Its time to find out as Mr Electricity Steve Regal goes one on one with SECW Junior champion, Eddie Mansfield.
Aries: Steve Regal... This guy made a public challenge to me. I would almost be angry if it wasn't so amusing. Where did this guy Regal come from? Mr Electricity? Really? Whose more electric than the greatest Champion thats Ever Lived? He wants me July 19th. He just made a huge mistake. As for Percy. He dumped Eric Embry in favor of Eddie Mansfield. So far it looks like he made the right decision. I know Eddie pretty well. He's a miserable bastard but tough in the ring.
----VS----
Eddie Mansfield w/Percy Pringle vs "Mr Electricity" Steve Regal
(Surprising to almost everyone these 2 men wrestle very cleanly. Both have there moments but Its Regal who is in control now. He has Mansfield in an Abdominal Stretch. When the ref isn't looking Regal grabs the ropes for extra leverage. Pringle points this out and Eddie is able to send him over with a hip toss. Then a scoop up Powerslam.Eddie goes right into a Boston Crab. Regal fights his way to the ropes. But just before he gets there Mansfield drags him back to the middle. Regal raises his hand...
And starts to crawl again. This time he makes the ropes for the break. Eddie immediately starts stomping him on the small of his back. Percyy is yelling instructions. He lifts up Steve and positions him for a Piledriver. But Regal back drops him. Then hits the ropes and nails a Leg Lariat. Reverse Neckbreaker on Mansfield. Regal covers but Percy Pringle is on the ring apron going bananas. Then from the back comes Eric Embry. He grabs Pringle and throws him over his shoulder and drops him to the mat. Then he grabs Percy by the hair and drags him back up the aisle as the fans cheer. Regal smiles then Jits aSide backbreaker in the middle of the ring. He lowers his knee pad the goes to the 2nd rope. He comes off with a Flying Knee Drop.
He misses!! Eddie slowly rises and clips the same knee from behind! He clamps on a Single Leg Crab. Regal holds out as long as he can then finally taps!)
Winner: Eddie Mansfield
Cole: Eddie Mansfield has reached the Finals!
Lombardi: Despite his manager being dragged off by Eric Embry. Mansfield gets it done.
Aries: But where is Percy and will this affect him in the finals?

Adamle: Time for the World Tag Team Championship.
Aries: You know the Skyscrapers used to be a pretty fearsome team. But they seem to have gone a little soft as of late.
Cole: Not sure if I would say that...at least not out loud.

The Simpsons(c) vs The Skyscrapers - UWF World Tag Team Championship
