Rising Star of the Week
Alex Myers
This week’s Rising Star of the Week was Alex Myers! With only this final week before Territorial Invasion, Alex Myers went up against one of their future opponents in Solomon Stane, taking a trip to Dynasty for the week to do so for this Divide & Conquer preview match. Despite being on a different brand for the week, Alex Myers managed to pick up the victory and bring momentum towards the way of team Voltage heading into Territorial Invasion. This was definitely a win Alex should be proud of heading into one of their biggest matches yet, so congratulations!

Show of the Week
Showdown
The Show of the Week before Territorial Invasion was the blue brand, Showdown! There were some great matches on this show that you wouldn’t usually see such as Dr. Bethany Blue versus Hikari Kanno and Jack Ripley versus Adam Lucas, but there was a lot more this show had to offer. We saw Ronan Malosi return to the company as the final participant in the Divide & Conquer match, and the show ended with a huge brawl that actually began with Limmy Monaghan and Kassidy Heart. Their own brawl would lead to all three teams in the Stadium Stampede match fighting each other, and team Dynasty would end the show standing tall. This was definitely an amazing night only one week before Territorial Invasion!
Match of the Week
Adam Lucas vs Jack Ripley
The Beef of the Week and Match of the Week for this week was definitely the match between Adam Lucas and Jack Ripley. Dynasty’s Brand Warfare team Captain went up against the Hardcore Champion, and this lead to a very interesting back and forth that had a lot to do with their respective teams heading into the Brand Warfare match. These are two of the most talented individuals on their respective rosters, and there was no doubt that they’d give us a great back and forth, and an even better match.
Promoer of the Week
Chris Elite
The Promoer of the Week for this week was one of the final members of Voltage’s Brand Warfare team, Chris Elite! On Voltage Chris went up against Johnny Andrews in a preview match for Brand Warfare, and Chris spent his week putting out a bunch of great promos. Chris Elite’s one of the more accomplished members of his team, and he proved exactly why this week as he continued to talk down on his opponent unlike any other. If this is what’s to come at Territorial Invasion, then Chris Elite will definitely be someone both team Dynasty and team Showdown will have to worry about.
Champion of the Week
Xander Payne
This week’s Champion of the Week was the World Heavyweight Champion, Xander Payne! Xander had no easy task this week as he faced one of the competitors in the Stadium Stampede match and the number one contender for the Interwire Championship, Andre Walker. Despite Andre standing tall on Showdown against his opposition, Xander would actually manage to pick up the victory against him, just a week before his Championship defense against Andrea Valentine. The momentum is definitely on Xander’s side following this win, so congratulations!
Most Valuable Elitist
Ms. Extreme
This week’s Most Valuable Elitist is Ms. Extreme! In the main event of Voltage, Ms. Extreme teamed up with Drake King to take on Mary S. Atlas and Rebecca Blackwell, but this was not just a normal tag team match. This was actually round one of the Tag Team Turmoil Tournament, and after managing to secure the pinfall that brought her and Drake the victory and moved them on to the next round of the tournament, there was no doubt that this week’s Most Valuable Elitist was the Universal Women’s Champion. Congratulations Ms. Extreme!
