Before Tidal Shock began, EWA hosted its first Hall of Fame cerimony to induct four EWA pioneers, The Showstopper, Jamez Hardy, Mr. P, and Icekid. A few things to note for the cerimony include: Steve O'Hara becoming the new GM for Ravaged Impact, Captain Awesome turns on the fans, and Scott Buster welcomes back the fans.
Tidal Shock Results
The show opened with the official Tidal Shock theme as well as a video recap of the Hall of Fame cerimony. Back live, the commentators run the night's card. Then Marcus Duke's theme music starts playing and we go right into our first match.
Marcus Duke vs. Nero vs. Ryan Willets - Brawl for All Match Up
Nero wins Brawl for All in 2:08
Highlights
Turned out to be an uneventful match. Marcus Duke dominated early, and after tossing Ryan Willets over the top rope, Nero dumped him over the top rope from behind.
Back live Nero learns that on Friday, this victory earns him a free shout at any title.
We cut backstage to an interview with Nero in which he decides he will challenge the World Champion, whoever they may be on Friday Night.
We cut to Phenomena being interviewed before his Smash Title defense. He reminds everyone how he has already beaten Scott Buster and how this is only Juan Kingston's second match. He walks out to the ring confident and back in the arena the second match of the night begins!
Phenomena(c) vs. Scott Buster vs. Juan Kingston for the EWA Smash Championship under The Smash Match rules
Phenomena defeats Scott Buster and Juan Kingston in 6:55 via Title Capture to retain the Smash Championship
Highlights
The match lived up to its high flying name early as Juan Kingston took to the air early, only to crash and burn. Scott Buster and Phenomena kept the match very high paced. Scott Buster took control for a fair portion of the match keeping both of his opponents at bay. When the fight took to the cables, Juan Kingston stopped Phenomena from certain victory, diving into him to pull him off the crossed cables. When Buster decided to try and put Phenomena away for good with the Phenomenalizer, he crashed and well crashed on the canvas hard. Once again Juan Kingston and Phenomena took the battle to the cables, but Phenomena craftly hurricanranaed his way around Kingston to pull down the title for victory.
A strange vignette fortold the arrival of someone. Honestly we didn't know what it was all about. It left everyone who watched it with a strange feeling deep inside.
Back live the commentators announce that a new superstar, Black Sheep was rouletted into the U.S. Title match, the Champion R-Truth came out and Match 3 went under way quickly.
R-Truth(c) vs. Dusk W/Dawn vs. Black Sheep for the EWA soon to be renamed U.S. Title
Dusk defeats R-Truth via pinfall in 3:56 to become the new U.S. Champion
Highlights
Black Sheep provided the offense early bringing it to both the Champion and second generation star. R-Truth was never a factor in this match until the end in which with the referee in which Dawn and Dusk spread their mists into Black Sheep and R-Truth respectively, so Dusk nailed R-Truth with the Nightingale Arrow for the pinfall. Interesting thing the commentators pointed up, this is the same title that Dusk's father the late Icekid won when he began his career in EWA.
Backstage Maria Stalls tries to interview Maverick Jones. He however ends up harassing her before warning JGH that he will win the World Title.
Nathan Cadge's music hits back in the arena and it is Main Event time.
JGH(c) vs. Nathan Cadge vs. Tenney vs. Maverick Jones vs. Kyle Smith for the EWA United World Championship
JGH defeats Nathan Cadge via pinfall in 20:01 to retain the EWA United World Championship
Highlights
Maverick as the bell rang took it to JGH, Kyle Smith, and Tenney with ineffective strikes and then was somehow clotheslined by the force of Nathan Cadge's roar. Anyway the Big Man manhandled his opponents much through the begining of the match. It took teamwork from his four opponents to take him out for awhile. The match saw pretty evened out action as no one was able to hold advantage for long. A big spot midway through the match saw Tenney going for a suicide dive onto Nathan Cadge, only to be tossed like a rag doll into the announcer's table. A few near falls later including Tenney going high risk for the Shooting Star Press on The Viper. With so many people in the match, no one could get a pinfall.
Then someone wearing a mask with a picture of JGH on it came out to clear the ring of everyone. JGH was placed on Nathan Cadge for the pinfall victory. Before JGH could hope to celerbrate, the Masked JGH nailed the real JGH with his own Highlight Reel finishing maneuver. The Pay Per View ended with the Masked JGH reveling his identity to be The Submission Master Kimbodo looking at the EWA United World Title he once held.
