Tournament 82: Summer Grand Slam - Day 2

The encore to the All-Star Summer Showdown continued with Day 2 of the annual 2017 Summer Grand Slam! The bottom half of Round 1 delivered more hard-hitting, star-studded eliminating as the final prestigious Grand Slam Tournament for the year brought out all the big names!

#3 seed and KFL Champion United: Mime picked up one of two MAX Damage wins on Day 2! He utterly destroyed Brexiteer Liam in the opening match! United: The_Purple_Bunny delivered the other ultimate destruction, destroying another prominent figure from the Duo Division: edge! The #2 seed VenoMark was next most destructive in his Round 1 win, dominating Mo2 for -20p!

We learned the random draw has evenly distributed eight Hall of Famers competing in this year's Summer Grand Slam! Kron ruined the glendi of The Greek Crisis' Summer comeback by beating maxilos. ICWW All-Stars Marz, Rockey316, and a DOAX returning Shamrock, were also confident First Round winners!

The Mid-Year Grand Slam was a bloodless event, but "The Predator" TonyTheTiger reminded everyone of his lethal potential when he executed the first fatal victory of Tournament 82! Many competitors have been trying to break "Wild Pegasus" Zentile, but for the last two years he's managed to fight on the edge. His high-risk style finally caught up with him in a devastating loss!

Day 2 of the Summer Grand Slam also had the distinction of featuring the first draw! xort was part of a Day 1 tie in the Mid-Year Grand Slam, and once again found himself fighting to a standstill, this time against Benjamin! A bizarre case of the same crud happening to the same guy twice!

"Mad Dog" Onryo was one of the shock exits of Day 2, losing an unlikely close fought bout to GuiltyByDesign! The second-half of the reigning Duo Division Champions was knocked out when NovaStarr defeated Scott-Howell. Duo Division hopefuls Jammer2Omega and Porygonix both bounced back from their All-Star Summer Showdown disappointment, with J2O claiming a big win against Nephrite to set-up a Round 2 clash with the KFL Champion!

Other big names to watch in the Second Round include: "The Hitman" DECEPTION, Division 2 Champion Shinnokxz, King Ken, Evil AlbertBeefcake, The_Hurricane, Shen_DuHBK, G0LD, MKMaster, SubMan799, and United: Murdoink.
