The high standard of Tournament 68 continued into the Quarter Finals, delivering two Hall of Fame competitors to the 2016 Mid-Year Grand Slam championship Sunday!
Ratt devastated the campaign of multiple tournament winner Genku: his path of greatness ended after a string of impressive victories caught up with him against the all-star power of his old enemy! Reigning Duo Division Champion Violent`J also picked up a huge victory in a battle of champions, eliminating KFL Champion and #4 seed Statix in an exciting ICWW throwback!
"The Fallen" LordSkarlet ended the unexpected rise of The United's manager DArqueBishop. The faction leaders fought well, but LordSkarlet's return has been cemented as a complete reversal of the early year trials that drove him to "fall"! This match more than any became a story of the dark horses - underrated competitors with a chance to surprise the field!
No horse was darker than "The Apprentice" DeathScepter, though! In the only legitimate upset of the Quarters, The_Purple_Bunny found himself completely bamboozled! After demolishing "The Chosen One" Damo in Round 4, TPB may have underestimated the Service Krew Apprentice. DS powered through to scoop the surprise win, ending one of the strongest win streaks in the event!
