Friday Night Fights (September 8, 2017)

DECEPTION announced his entry into this year's Night of Champions Battle Royal earlier in the week, but he also made it known he wouldn't turn his back on New Generation teammate: "Mad Dog" Onryo. In the main event of Friday Night Fights, he showed everyone just what that loyalty meant, challenging the reigning Division 2 Champion to a battle of duos!

Shinnokxz had to scramble to find a Duo partner and found old acquaintance GuiltyByDesign to help him defend against The Hitman's challenge. The pairing was ultimately moot as the proven fighting fusion of The New Generation delivered swift defeat! The win was DECEPTION's way of helping his partner Onryo prove himself against the Division 2 champ. Will it set Onryo up for solo title opportunity while DECEPTION goes in search of Undisputed gold?

G0LD may have something to say about Onryo's championship aspirations. The highly ranked Div.2 fighter has been circling the title for some time, and executed a text book solid win against xort! G0LD had the better of Onryo when he first split from previous New Gen partner Baraka_MK, but the title picture remains uncertain.

There was nothing uncertain about Genku's intentions when he dragged DeathScepter into The Great Arena on Friday. He was still clearly fuming over last week's announcement that he won't compete for Damo's Undisputed Championship at Supercard 98. The Invasion were irregularly removed from Genku, but Damo's old Service Krew buddy was still clearly outmatched. A reprieve emerged when Statix inserted himself into the conflict, taking the fight to his old Invasion rival! The three-way scenario did DeathScepter no favours as he was overwhelmed early in the match. Statix barely fared any better himself, suffering a dominating beating at the hands of Genku!

Ironically, Statix will be one of the former ICWW Champions eligible for the Contender Battle Royal that will deliver the winner to an Undisputed Championship match at Supercard 98: Night of Champions V! It remains to be seen if Statix will take that opportunity, or continue to pursue the menace of The Invasion, who were largely absent save for DaemonX & Shen_DuHBK challenging rxvt & deadly to a Duo Division match.
