Cuban Assassin vs. Lance Storm
Cuban Assassin, the freshly turned fan favourite, takes on Lance Storm, whose foray into singles wrestling since breaking up his tag team with Tyson Kidd hasn’t gone so smoothly. This match is no change of pace for him. While Storm is the superior athlete, his athleticism can only keep him in control for so long. When Cuban Assassin delivers a double axehandle smash to Storm to counter a springboard maneuver, Storm’s fortunes turn bad. Next, the Cuban Assassin gives him a Russian legsweep and then roughs him up with a gator roll. Storm eventually regains control of the match with a desperation superkick, but once the battle spills out to the floor, the Cuban Assassin takes firm control of the fight. Moments after returning to the ring, Cuban Assassin gives Storm a piledriver and pins him for the win.
Official Decision: Cuban Assassin wins by pinfall at 6:12
Cuban Assassin pleases the Moncton crowd with a win over Lance Storm.
After the match, the Cuban Assassin is hit from behind by a steel chair! It’s Moncton’s own Leo Burke! Burke hits him repeatedly with the chair before throwing it on the canvas and giving him a DDT on the chair! Next, Burke pulls out his brass knuckles from his trunks and starts popping the Cuban Assassin in the forehead, over and over again until he’s wearing a crimson mask. Some fans are throwing trash in Leo Burke’s direction. He demands the ring announcer give him his microphone so that he can tell the fans that he is disgusted with them. He’s disappointed and disgusted with the people of his own hometown for cheering for this barbaric Neanderthal – the very same man who cost him a match against Samoa Joe, two weeks ago. In fact, Burke is so disgusted and disappointed in his hometown that he doesn’t think they deserve to see him compete tonight. He announces that he forfeits his match against Rhino and his appearance fee for the evening, saying that he would rather not perform for them than get paid.
Leo Burke beats the crap out of the Cuban Assassin, tells off his hometown and walks out of the arena.
*Commercial Break 1*
Paige vs. Jazz
Paige and Jazz have both suffered recent losses to AGPW Women’s Champion Awesome Kong. What’s more is that Jazz also lost her first match since then, against Ivelisse Vélez, who has proclaimed herself the baddest bitch in wrestling. Jazz’s reputation has taken a small hit and she’s intent on reaffirming herself as the baddest bitch. However, before she can do that, she has to get through Paige, who raised her profile by beating Natalya Neidhart, AJ Lee and Charlotte Flair in a fatal fourway match to earn a shot at Awesome Kong’s title. Both wrestlers come strong out of the gate. After an initial flurry of hard hitting clotheslines, kicks, chops and headbutts, the match settles into a technical wrestling contest, with Paige working over Jazz. Paige throws some suplexes into the mix and pins Jazz, but she kicks out after each one. When Paige attempts the Scorpion Crosslock, Jazz gets a foot in her face to block and then executes a Samoan drop. That represents a turning of the tide and Jazz goes through her arsenal of high impact power moves. When Jazz goes for a superlex, Paige shoves her to the mat and then executes a missile dropkick. She covers, but Jazz kicks out. Paige picks her up and gets her in a front cradle to set up for the Ram-Paige, but Jazz counters with a bridging northern lights suplex. Paige kicks out at two. After that, Paige charges forward but gets a spinebuster! Jazz picks up Paige and puts her in the Bitch Clamp and holds onto it for nearly a half a minute before Paige finally gives up.
Official Decision: Jazz wins by submission at 8:23
Jazz reaffirms herself as the baddest bitch in wrestling!
*Commercial Break 2*
VS. 
Mash-Up Wrestling World Championship Title Match
CM Punk {C} vs. "Macho Man" Randy Savage
This segment begins with a reminder that CM Punk and “Macho Man” Randy Savage will headline JOURNEY TO GREATNESS 2015 on Sunday, June 21, 2015. We get a video recap of CM Punk’s appearance on last week’s Titans of Grand Prix, when he appeared on the Cutting Edge. That segment ended with CM Punk all alone in the ring after Bret and Owen Hart stopped The Centre of the Universe from putting him on the shelf like they did to Chris Jericho. Then, we get footage from after the show went off of the air. After the live feed ended, as CM Punk was walking away from ringside, he was jumped by the “Macho Man” Randy Savage, who hopped over the guardrail to attack him. Savage repeatedly threw CM Punk into the guardrails on both sides of the entrance aisle. Then, he gave Punk a vertical suplex on the arena floor. The video recap ends with Savage laying the Mash-Up World Heavyweight Champion in the middle of the ring with a bodyslam and then hitting him with the diving elbow drop – not once, not twice, but thrice!
CM Punk explains why he’s the Best in the World, and the “Macho Man” is not.
In a pre-taped interview, CM Punk reacts to being attacked by “Macho Man” Randy Savage last week in Québec City. The Mash-Up World Heavyweight Champion tells us that he was Savage well scouted and that the damage he took last week was but a small price to play to get Savage off his game. He knows that when the paranoid Macho Man gets a small taste of the madness, like a junkie, he can’t stop it. And it toys with Savage’s mind. He thinks that it can propel him to victory, but history has shown that it tends to do him more harm than good. Punk says that he’s always admired Savage as an athlete and as a wrestler. He admits that the Macho Man is one of this sport’s greats, but the madness is his Achilles’ heel and by taking the lid off of it, he’s succeeded to put the Macho Man two steps behind him. It is what Punk is going to exploit to show the world why he is the Best in the World – and being the Best in the World is why CM Punk holds the Mash-Up World Heavyweight Championship belt and the “Macho Man” does not.
“Macho Man” Randy Savage is the cream of the crop.
Jeremy Borash is standing by with “Macho Man” Randy Savage, who says that he is unjustifiably in a position he would rather not be in. He says that the cards are stacked against him, with the Mash-Up World Heavyweight Champion trying to exploit the fact that he’s been shackled by the Commissioner’s Office. When asked about that comment, Savage says that Commissioner Billy Two Rivers handcuffed him by imposing restrictions on the Macho Madness as a condition for his reinstatement from an indefinite suspension. CM Punk wanted to play with the Macho Madness. Two weeks ago, he opened the gate to pay it a visit, but he forgot to close the gate and now the Macho Madness has been set free! Savage has broken the shackles that bound him and now the cream will rise to the top because the Macho Man is the cream of the crop!
*Commercial Break 3*
Rhino vs. Killer Kowalski
After Leo Burke left the arena for the night, a new opponent was found for Rhino – Killer Kowalski! The two big men engage in a five minute slobberknocker that fails to produce a winner. They throw thunderous meathooks at each other, in addition to powerful kicks and hard lariats. An intense test of strength goes back and forth until Kowalski headbutts Rhino to overpower him. Kowalski’s devastating diving knee drop hits nothing but canvas and Rhino’s deadly GORE! is dodged, sending him into the turnbuckle post and falling out of the ring, to the floor. There, the two behemoths brawl until they are both counted out – and then they keep on brawling. Officials have to come down to ringside to pull them apart. Without a victor being crowned, chances are good that this isn’t the last time we’ll see them fighting in an AGPW ring.
Official Decision: Double Countout at 4:58
Killer Kowalski and Rhino slug it out until officials can separate the two big men.
*Commercial Break 4*
Ultimo Dragon vs. Steve Corino
Ultimo Dragon looks like a million bucks in what equates to a squash over Steve Corino. Ultimo Dragon controls the match from the beginning and doesn’t give Corino an opportunity to get a move in edgewise. Dragon makes Corino look foolish with Japanese arm drags, as well as running and springboard arm drags. He also delivers plenty of hard kicks throughout, including dropkicks and a shoot kick combo that ends with a jumping sole kick. He also gives Corino a springboard hurricanrana and a handspring back elbow before finishing him off with a Dragon Bomb.
Official Decision: Ultimo Dragon wins by pinfall at 2:46
Ultimo Dragon looks unbeatable!
After he wins, the Ultimo Dragon is attacked by “Killer” Karl Krupp and the “Acadian Giant” Kurrgan. They beat him down and choke the life out of him. Just as they try to rip his mask off, Tyson Kidd comes to his aid, carrying a steel chair as an equalizer. Krupp and Kurrgan scatter like a couple of cowards as Kidd swings the chair at them.
Tyson Kidd scares off the cowardly giants!
The British Bulldogs announce their intention to win the North American Tag Team Titles.
In a backstage interview with Jeremy Borash, Davey Boy Smith and the Dynamite Kid announce that they want a shot at the North American Tag Team Championship Titles. Tazaro shows up and tells them to get in line behind them because they still have what they believe to be a valid claim to the titles. The Bulldogs say that they already hot their rematch and blew it, and then they lost to the Rougeaus, which ought to drop them down to the bottom of the ranks. Tazaro gets offended and challenges the Bulldogs to a match, just to show them how hard it is to survive an encounter with a bottom ranked team like Taz and Cesaro.
Taz and Cesaro challenge the British Bulldogs to a match, coming up after the commercial break!
*Commercial Break 5*
The British Bulldogs vs. Tazaro
After arguing over who should receive a shot at the North American Tag Team Championship Titles just before the break, these two teams enter the ring to symbolically settle which team it should be. Each team is determined to win this match. The pace is quick and there are frequent tags made on both sides of the ring. Dynamite Kid brings an element of speed into the ring that is unmatched. Meanwhile, Davey Boy Smith, Taz and Cesaro are all very powerful wrestlers. Smith also enjoys a bit of a speed advantage over Taz and Cesaro. Taz has the advantage of being able to bust out any suplex you can imagine, at the drop of a dime, and Cesaro is well-rounded athlete who may very well be the strongest man in AGPW on a pound for pound basis. Plenty of double teams are executed on both sides of the ring and many pinfall attempts come up one count short of a victory. Highlights of the match include Smith showing off his strength with a long delayed vertical suplex on Cesaro; Taz throwing both Bulldogs around the ring with a series of back-to-back release Germans, overhead belly-to-bellies, T-bones, head-and-arms and tiger suplexes; the Bulldogs executing stereo missile dropkicks on Taz and then Cesaro; Cesaro superplexing Smith from the ring apron into the ring; Dynamite Kid giving Taz a tombstone piledriver; and Cesaro giving Dynamite Kid fifteen spins around the Cesaro Swing. The end of the match comes when Cesaro makes a blind tag to Taz as he bounces off of the ropes and runs into a double team back body drop. While Smith picks up Taz, Cesaro runs in and knocks Dynamite Kid out of his boots with a hard European uppercut. Smith runs over and hits Cesaro with some forearm smashes. Just as he scoops him up for the set up to his running powerslam, Taz puts him in the Tazmission! Dynamite Kid chop blocks him to break it, but is then grabbed by Cesaro and launched clean over the top rope and into the guardrail! Next, Cesaro gets his hands on Smith and gives him the Neutralizer! 1…2…3!
Official Decision: Tazaro wins by pinfall at 15:32
Taz and Cesaro earn an important victory over the British Bulldogs.
Following the match, Taz and Cesaro get ahold of the ringside microphone and declare themselves the #1 contenders to the North American Tag Team Championship Titles and put the current champions, the International Ministry of Finance’s Alberto El Patron and “Million Dollar Man” Ted DiBiase on notice. But then the Fabulous Rougeau Brothers come to the ring and argue that Tazaro deserves nothing because the Rougeaus beat them fair and square, last week. Meanwhile, the British Bulldogs have regained their composure and step into the middle of the sharp barbs between tossed between the other teams, noting that they recently beat the Rougeaus in tag team action. Tempers flare up and boil over. Predictably, the three teams start slugging it, which prompts Commissioner Billy Two Rivers to make an appearance ordering the warring teams to stop fighting so that he can publicly declare who will face the IMF at JOURNEY TO GREATNESS 2015: the former champions, Tazaro, and the Fabulous Rougeau Brothers and the British Bulldogs! It will be a fatal fourway elimination match for the North American Tag Team Titles! And because the Commissioner has reason to believe that the IMF may be fixing their matches in their favour, this match will have a special guest referee, but he will not reveal who that is until next week.

*Commercial Break 6*
Last week, it was the Cutting Edge. This week, we get the Peep Show!
Christian Cage takes over the ring as the ‘vicious host’ of the Peep Show. He’s accompanied by his very ‘delicious co-host’ Trish Stratus and the problem solver of the Centre of the Universe, Test. Christian explains that last week while he had bigger fish to fry, Bret “The Hitman” Hart and Owen Hart stuck their noses where they didn’t belong. Up until that point, Christian had planned to let the Hart Family be and just casually beat Bret Hart for the International Heavyweight Championship at JOURNEY TO GREATNESS 2015. Unfortunately for the Hart Family, they interfered with Christian’s business, so now they’ll have to face some pretty steep consequences for getting on the bad side of Captain Charisma and the Centre of the Universe, that is, unless they come to the ring right now and publicly apologize for their actions last week.
Perhaps expecting an ambush, Bret and Owen Hart come to the ring with Natalya Neidhart so that they have even numbers. Speaking on behalf of himself and his brother Owen, The Hitman says that they won’t apologize for doing the right thing, even if the right thing means helping a grade-A asshole like CM Punk avoid being annihilated by a narcissistic group of even bigger assholes. While the Hitman’s language may come as a bit of a surprise, it earns huge pops from the fans inside the Moncton Coliseum. Christian expresses his dismay for the Hart Family lacking the ability to make sound decisions and cautions the Harts that if they don’t apologize right now, then the consequences will be “Rated-R.”
Edge’s arrival turns this segment’s rating from PG-13 to Rated-R!
The ambush happens. Edge quickly sneaks into the ring from behind and whacks the Hitman with a steel chair! Owen tries to come his aid, but Christian and Test pounce on him. Also, Trish blindsides Natalya. The Centre of the Universe enjoys the strength of the numbers game. Test gives the Hart brothers both a running big boot. Edge spears Owen and Christian gives Bret the Unprettier. Trish takes care of Natalya by giving her Stratusfaction and a Chick Kick before throwing her out the ring. Test brings steel chairs into the ring and hands them to Edge and Christian. It looks like it’s time for a con-chair-to or two. But like last week’s con-chair-to was interrupted before it began, this week’s is interrupted by the arena lights flickering out. Then, in the centre of the ring, right in the middle of the Centre of the Universe, a jacket lights up.
Chris Jericho is back!
When the lights return to normal, we see Chris Jericho! Boom! Codebreaker for Christian! Boom! Codebreaker for Test! Edge swings a chair at Jericho, but misses and he gives Edge the Codebreaker! Jericho’s not done with Edge, he drags him outside and tosses him onto the French announcers’ table and then puts him in a Walls of Jericho! A bunch of officials run down to the ring to break things up and tend to all of the fallen bodies.
*Commercial Break 7*
Heading into the final quarter, Ed Whalen and Lord Alfred Hayes announce that next week on The Titans of Grand Prix our big main event will be a tag team match between Bret & Owen Hart and Edge & Christian! Plus, right before the beginning of our main event match for the Women’s Championship, SoCal Val catches up with Chris Jericho backstage and he confirms that he still hasn’t been medically cleared to compete, but that doesn’t matter. He’s back and he plans on putting every member of the Centre of the Universe in the hospital, and that no matter what state his health is in, he’ll star working on that plan by destroying Edge at JOURNEY TO GREATNESS 2015!

Women’s Championship Title Match
Awesome Kong vs. Charlotte Flair
Awesome Kong vs. Charlotte Flair
Last week, Charlotte got a tainted victory over AJ Lee. However, in so doing, she catapulted herself into the Women’s Championship Title contender mix. Awesome Kong took notice and invited her to step up and take her shot at the champion. Kong has been defending her title on a near weekly basis and she’s defeated nearly everyone there is to beat in the division. Kong seems to be on a mission to beat everyone to give her extra bragging rights as some kind of a division killer. Charlotte, a second generation superstar, is no slouch in the ring. Her improvement in the ring is noticeable every week. Charlotte rises to the occasion in this battle and surprises Awesome Kong with the size of her fight. Early on, Kong is unable to get anything going. For example, she tries to hit Charlotte with a stiff lariat, but she does the matrix evasion and then dropkicks Kong off of her feat. Later on, Charlotte impresses by giving Awesome Kong a bodyslam! She gets a big pop for that, as no one other than Chyna has been able to do that to Awesome Kong. However, experience is on the champion’s side and she stays in it long enough to exploit a mistake. Charlotte goes for a moonsault, but Kong rolls out of the way. After that, Kong hammers Charlotte with a stiff lariat. A chokeslam later and Kong pins. 1…2… kick out! Kong is surprised. Next, she goes for the Awesome Bomb, but Charlotte counters with a sunset flip attempt, which Kong counters with a seated senton attempt, which Charlotte swiftly avoids. Back to their feet, Charlotte lays into Kong with knife-edge chops. Woooo! She goes for a neckbreaker, but Kong spins through and executes a sit-out front suplex. Then, she gives Charlotte a standing splash and picks her up to execute the Awesome Bomb! 1…2…3! Awesome Kong defeats yet another challenger to her title. Who can beat Awesome Kong? Perhaps more accurately put, who is there left for Awesome Kong to beat? And who will face her at JOURNEY TO GREATNESS 2015?
Official Decision: Awesome Kong wins by pinfall at 11:20
Awesome Kong continues her domination of the Women’s Division.
