Phase Sixty: A Hard Day's Night
The Heat Rises
Before the show starts, footage from earlier in the night is shown. Outside the PCW building, a recording of Rhea forearming Allysin begins. Kay doesn’t hold back and punch to the jaw. The two women battle it out behind the building with Kay spearing Rhea into the side of the building.
Rhea is barely able to move as Allysin lifts her up and plants her back against the concrete of the lot. Kay doesn’t stop there, stomping down on Rhea again and again until she’s barely moving. Allysin stops as Ripley goes still. She pulls out a small flask from her jacket pocket and pours alcohol all over the woman. She empties the bottle before tossing the flask.
Kay pulls out a lighter and smiles. “It’d be so fucking easy to end you right now, Rhea,” she says. She shakes her head after a few moments of thinking and laughs. “I’d rather bust your face open and send you to the ER. I wanna feel as your nose breaks under my fist and your knee shatters under my boot.” Allysin puts the lighter away and stands only to stomp down on the knee as it’s bent. Rhea grits her teeth in pain as her knee is bent at an odd angle. Allysin lets up and Ripley glares at the two-toned woman. “I’m going to...to make you regret this...”
“Maybe...but it won’t be tonight.”

Shaul Guerrero vs Salina De La Renta (With Low-Ki)
Salina had Shaul on the ropes, forcing the woman’s neck against them to choke Shaul. She’s forced to break it up by the count of four and Low-Ki swiped the leg while Salina distracted the referee. Guerrero fights back, sending the man into the barricade as he tried to drag her out. Shaul is back in the ring but unfortunately is caught by a kick to the gut.
Salina follows up with a DDT for the victory, but Guerrero kicks out at two. Salina shoves her into the corner, but Shaul leaps above her as she goes for a clothesline. Guerrero follows up with a sunset powerbomb from the corner into the pin. Salina kicks out. Low-Ali gets on the apron and the referee attempts to deal with him. Salina spits in Shaul’s face and drives a fist into the throat before rolling up Guerrero for the three count.
Shaul is still choking as Salina proceeds to toss the woman out of the ring. Her and Low-Ki proceed to beat down on the woman until security comes out to break it up.

Undisputed
Jackal stands next to Hayley Atwell with a smug look on his face after last week’s shenanigans. Hayley smiles and raises the mic to her lips. “My guest at this time is the self-proclaimed King of Hig—“
“Self-proclaimed? No, I am the King and the people have already witnessed that. They know it just as well as I do that I’m the best high-flyer in PCW. I’m better than Rey, better than Ospreay, better than even Taya and Jenny. Better than Ricochet.”
“Speaking of Ricochet, why did you attack him? What was the motivation?”
“Ever since he came along, people have been acting like what he’s doing is phenomenal. I have been doing those things and doing it even better. It makes no sense to me why they think he’s so great, so I decided to show them that they’re wrong about Ricochet.”
“No, Jackal. They’re right about me,” Ricochet says as he approaches Jackal. “The people know that I’m great and they’re more than happy to see me compete because I can deliver. Instead of being better, you decided to attack me and almost injured me. That’s fine... Because I’m gonna get some payback at the pay-per-view. Taya has already given the green light. You better be ready, Phil, because we’re going to be in a ladder match.”

Tessa Blanchard vs Zack Sabre Jr
The two lock up and Tessa gets the upper hand with a grab to the hair. She plants him back against the mat and steps on the chest. She throws her arms in the air and grime, enjoying the control she had just before Zack trips her up. He tries to put into an armbar but she gets to the ropes quickly. Sabre whips her into the corner and connects with a dropkick to the chest.
Tessa rolls out of the ring, but Zack springboards to the outside with a crossbody to take her down. Zack forces her up and chops her chest multiple times. He looks at the woman as she grits her teeth in pain and chops her again with a hint of malice. Over again and over he kept striking Tessa until she dropped to her knees. Zack tosses Tessa over the barricade into the crowd, suddenly furious.
He forces fans out of their seats and slams the head into the chair. Again and again, he brutalized Blanchard until she could barely stand. The bell had long since rung, but that didn’t stop Zack from striking Blanchard. Only when he deemed she had enough did he relent. He dragged Tessa back over the barricade and into the ring before requesting a mic.
“Man, woman—girlfriend—I will tear down anyone who questions me and what I do in this ring. This...” he says as he points down to Tessa. “This is what happens when you piss off Zack Sabre Junior. I may be in a tag team with Havoc, but don’t ever mistake that as a sign of me being unable to compete in a singles match because you’ll end up like this spoiled bitch here.”

Retribution
“She’s avoiding me on purpose! You know this! It’s the second week in a row and I still don’t have my match,” Jenny says as she releases her frustration on Quack in the office. She intended to challenge Taya tonight, but the woman was nowhere to be seen. “She’s not fired yet because she lied about her ‘illness’ and she technically cannot compete.”
“Jenny, if I could prove she’s lying, I would. Taya’s smarter than she looks. She knows that I can’t fire her without solid proof she’s not sick.”
“Now she’s going around with some fake scar on her face. I know its just another ploy to stop me from getting my hands on her,” she says. “When, Mike? When do I get my retribution?”
“I will speak with Taya. She has to face you at the pay-per-view or she’s done here.”

Indigo Kelly (With Corvus) vs Vipress (With Harlow O'Hara)
Indigo hasn’t lost a single beat. She has control over Vipress early on, but the woman turns it around with a jab to the throat. Indigo chokes as Vipress connects with a snapmare into a big boot. She does go for the pin and instead tosses her out to Harlow. The referee warns Harlow as she grabs Indigo by the face. “You miserable brat. Should’ve torn those bastard children from your womb when I had the chance.” Indigo’s blood starts to boil and she doesn’t hold back the slap to the face.
She’s back in the ring as Vipress goes for a kick. Vipress misses as Indigo ducks. The woman lifts the demon up for an electric chair suplex for the pin. Vipress kicks out quickly. Harlow beckons to Vipress and she crawls to the witch. Harlow whispers into her ear and Corvus rounds the ring. Vipress grins and opens her mouth, taking something from Harlow. Indigo stands guard but isn’t prepared for Vipress’s mouth to drip black liquid.
Vipress smiles and her teeth are covered in black ooze. Before indigo can block it, Vipress mists her and drives a knee to the face. Indigo kicks out of the following pin, but rolls out of the ring, blind. Corvus tries to help her, but Harlow attempts to interfere. He doesn’t hold back, fighting back against her as Vipress drags indigo into the ring. She plants Indigo with a piledriver and covers the woman for the pinfall.
Frankie Valentine & Natalya vs Will Ospreay & Flash Morgan Webster
The two teams go at it with Frankie taking control of Morgan. Webster does his best to use his speed to overpower her, but she takes him with a shoulder block. The woman lifts him for a buckle bomb into the corner. She tags in Natalya and the two double team Webster in the corner with a double suplex from the second rope.
Morgan tries to battle back against Natalya and eventually lands the neckbreaker. He tags in Will and the man goes high for a senton. He goes for the cover and Natalya kicks out. He lifts Natalya up for the Storm Breaker, but she counters and drops him with the Nattie by Nature clothesline. She ties the legs up for the Sharpshooter and Webster looks to break it up. Frankie Spears him to the mat and Ospreay has to tap out.
Tyler Breeze vs Sami Callihan (Rising Phoenix Championship Match)
Breeze and Callihan go back and forth with Sami coming out on top with a backbreaker. He pins the champion, but Tyler kicks out. The blonde crawls into the corner and eats a knee to the face. Callihan forces Tyler up and chops him in the chest before whipping him into the opposing corner. Sami stays on him with a running jumping knee in the corner to the face. He goes for another pin, but Breeze survives.
Callihan looks to finish it when Bray Wyatt comes down the ramp. He watches as Sami tries to drop Tyler with a powerbomb, but the champion tosses him over the ropes with a huracarrana. Bray approaches Callihan as he’s down and drops to his knees. He flashes the lantern and a bright light emits. It blinds the entire arena and before long, Bray is gone with Sami still blinded. Breeze forces Callihan back into the arena and ends it quickly with a Beauty Shot to retain his title yet again.
“One more defence! Just one more, uggos, and I’m home free!”
