"Here is your winner...Mark Richman!!!"
What a match by these two competitors. You have to give it to Alex Danger. He put up a fight for the shot at the NWC Cruiserweight championship next week.
Unfortunately for Danger, Mark Richman will go for two pieces of gold next week. What a career Richman is making for himself in the NWC. He could walk out of Fresno, CA with two straps next week.
He has truly become an impact player in the NWC.
Mark Richman advances to the finals of the Cruiserweight championship tournament. He also has already advanced to the finals of the Tag team title tournament.
Still to come, our main event. The Dark Alliance, World champion Chris Williams and the Terminator along with Mystic, will face The Extreme Vampyr and his special partner the debuting Ricky Riddle.
And up next, one on one, an international challenge. England's own Erik Xavier will challenge Japanese sensation Spirit. This should also be one hell of a match. Stay tuned.
