Jonny Firestorm. Drake Marcos. Cegarrath. Gryphon Majors. 4 wrestlers. One ring. One winner. The rules are simple, or they should be, but wrestlers aren’t the easiest bunch to communicate with. 30 minute time limit, whoever has the most pitfalls or submissions at the end of the time limit is the winner. Two wrestlers are in the ring, one holds the camera, and one remains on the ring apron on deck. Whoever gets pinned or submits becomes the camera bitch, the camera bitch moves to being on deck, and the person on deck is now in the ring. The winner remains in with the opportunity to continue racking up points.
Jonny’s happy to start on camera so he can watch the boys work each other over first. A stratergy that could backfire if the same person goes on a run right out of the gate. In a match like this a large lead can be impossible to overcome. Drake and Cegarrath kick the match off, both utilizing more of a rugged grappling style to wear the other man down. Playing right into Firestorm’s strategy.
We see every combination of one on one encounters, as well as the action breaking down and having some 2-1 situations arise. At some points the falls come fast and furious. You have to wonder, is the punishment that severe? Or is the wrestler submitting early to prevent injury and save the wear and tear on his body? Keeping himself fresh for a late match frenzy? At one point Jonny is whipped into the turnbuckle so hard it completely detaches itself from the ring pole!
As the clock ticks down, it ends up in a tie (or so everybody thinks). Sudden death rules apply, no time limit, single elimination until there’s a winner. After the match, the winner leaves two of the wrestlers to have their way with one poor jobber.
