Cage and The Mack have qualified and advanced to the final Fatal Fourway elimination match in this tournament. The winner of this match will join them. Some heavy hitting to start off this one. Killshot and Fox go right after each other immediately. Fox and Mariposa end up being struck down with some stiff kicks. Crane strikes Killshot with a stiff kick of his own. The over under on kicks in the first few minutes of this match is at least 16. Killshot wins the battle of them with Crane. In comes Mariposa, who flies off the ropes and kicks down both of them. The 5’10 Mariposa holds her own against the men in this match for the next few minutes. Knocking down Crane, Fox and Killshot with shoulder tackles. Fox eventually kills her momentum by kicking her down to the mat. He then goes on a suicide dive frenzy. Diving onto all 3 of his competitors.
More high flying action. This time Mariposa engineers some aerial offense. She flies onto Killshot and Fox. Jeremiah Crane joins the party and takes out Fox with an outside dive. Killshot is back up and leaps onto everyone. He tries another leap but this time, Crane nails him in mid air with a steel chair. Crane starts throwing chairs into the ring and at his opponents. Crane gets about a dozen chairs out. Then sets them in the ring. A Musical Chairs chant breaks out from the crowd. Crane brings Killshot to the top rope. Dante Fox joins them up there. Here comes Mariposa and she joins the party up top. She then executes the tower of doom on all 3 men through the 7 or so chairs set up in the ring. Mariposa goes chair crazy and starts flinging chairs at her opponents.
