Alex Misery def Damian Fenrir
The show opened a #1 contender's match to decide who will be next in line to face Slade for the NWA World Junior Heavyweight Championship between Damian Fenrir and Brandon McCord's newest acquisition, MZRY! Fenrir wasted no time taking the fight to MZRY, with a belly to belly suplex to the corner.
With Damian Fenrir's RAW Power, it became difficult for MZRY to get an upperhand in the match.
While MZRY was on the outside, Fenrir decided to hit a cross body and ended up hitting Brandon McCord, taking him out of the equation.
Off the distraction, MZRY was able to take advantage and hit Fenrir with a drop kick as he was getting back into the ring. He then made his way to the top rope to hit a 5-star frog splash and secure the pinfall victory to become the new #1 contender to the NWA World Junior Heavyweight Title.
Some trouble within the Southern Six?
NWA Crockett Cup Quarterfinals Match
In our next match, We rolled on into the Quarterfinals of the 2026 Crockett Cup as the #5 Seed the Southern Six, took on the #4 Seed the Wrestling Machines. The match started hot for the Southern Six, with Alex Taylor paying homage to the legend at ringside, Ricky Morton.
Once Kerry got in, they started showing off the teamwork that led them to the 2024 Crockett Cup Victory, with a little double Tully Special!
Once Aron Stevens was able to interfere and knock Alex Taylor off the top rope, that was when the Wrestling Machines were able to take control of the match.
After that interference, the Wrestling Machines began to have there way with Alex Taylor.
Thankfully, Taylor was able to get to his corner and tag Kerry Morton into the match, and that's when thing's really started to fire up.
Thing's were starting to lean in the Southern Six's favor, that was until Taylor and Morton and collided causing tempers to flare.
After the accidental contact, Slade took advantage, grabbing Alex Taylor and applying his modified figure four lock. Kerry Morton knocked Mondo off, but seemed to pause and not help Taylor, leading to a tap out and victory for the Wrestling Machines. It's safe to say Worlds Heavyweight Champion Silas Mason was not to happy by this.
The Country Gentlemen pull off an UPSET
NWA Crockett Cup Quarterfinals Match

Let's just say it didn't take long for Joe to have more to complain about once AJ got caught in the ring ropes and The Colons took advantage rather quickly, messing with KC.
Joe had no problem showing his displeasure, interfering in the match and giving his son AJ an opening to gain the advantage.
The Colons weren't going to let that slide though, as Primo quickly got a figure four lock on KC, Paying homage to legendary NWA Worlds Heavyweight Champion, Ric Flair.
In the end, The Country Gentlemen were able to hit the Gentlemen's Touch on Primo securing the victory and advancing to the semifinals of the 2026 Crockett Cup.
