Pit Fight
Kenny King vs. ‘Speedball’ Mike Bailey

There are no ropes for this match. It has the GCW Bloodsport/Raw Underground style look. Kenny King hits Mike Bailey with a Dragon Screw Leg Whip. Bailey comes back a short time later and nails King with a ton of quick and heavy kicks. Bailey hits King with a flying side kick.

King hits Bailey with a spinebuster, but Bailey is not knocked out. Mike Bailey goes for his finishing move off the top of the ring post to the floor, but King kicks him while Bailey is flying in the air. The crowd is chanting for Bailey. Bailey hits King with a cross arm breaker and adds double knees to the chest. King is not defending himself! Bailey lays a chair on the head of King and kicks the chair, and King is knocked out and the referee calls for the bell.

Winner: ‘Speedball’ Mike Bailey
