(Non-Title)
Before the match, Jay Pride takes the mic and denies that K-Hard’s presence in London for Frontline was anything to do with him. He tells Gambino he’s ready and willing for the rematch whenever Gambino wants it. He then says that if Gambino interferes in tonight’s match between Pride and Lasiewicz, he’ll get the same treatment Andreas got on the last show. Finally, he promises the fans that he’ll be a defending champion and not sit on the title for months, and says he knows Chandler Scott still has an outstanding title shot. He says FRONTIER will be happy to have Chandler when he returns, and says they should tear the roof off the building.
Pride tries to use power early but fails and resorts to a dropkick instead to send Lasiewicz out to the floor, where he takes him out with a tope! Jay tries to set up a tornado DDT from the top rope to the floor but Lasiewicz clotheslines him back into the ring for a near fall. Lasiewicz delivers a long delayed vertical suplex for another two count and then leg drops Jay over the ring apron. Back in the ring Lasiewicz counters into a big argentine backbreaker, most people thought he was going for the Unforgettable Fire (Argentine Backbreaker into DDT) already. I have to admit I did too for a moment.
Jay hits a missile dropkick off the top to Lasiewicz’s temple, but he kicks out of the pin attempt. Both men trade forearms until Jay snaps off an exploder suplex on Lasiewicz for two. They fight to the top rope where Jay superplexes Lasiewicz off, but Lasiewicz just grits his teeth and gets back to his feet, fighting through the pain long enough to fire off an enziguri to the GFC Champion. Great guts shown by Andreas, showing why he’s the GDW Champion! Pride hits a German suplex, but Lasiewicz snaps right back up again so Jay gives him a stiff lariat for a near fall. He tries for the spinning toe-hold but Lasiewicz escapes to the floor. Lasiewicz back up onto the ring apron and grabs Jay when he tries a kick, instead he gives him a Fisherman’s buster to the floor! That’s not enough though, so he picks him up and powerbombs him right into the barricade!
“Holy Shit” chants from the Doncaster fans. Lasie rolls Pride back into the ring but Pride kicks out of a cover. Sick Implant DDT only gets him a two count as well. Both men back up, brawl and get caught up in the corner. Pride comes out on top of this encounter and sets Lasiewicz up on the top rope. They jockey for position on top rope before Jay delivers a top rope super German suplex to Lasiewicz that nearly kills the man! Another deserved “Holy Shit” chant after that one. But yet again Andreas kicks out of the resultant pin attempt. Showing great determination and strength here.
Lasiewicz back up, staggering, and Pride moves in. Andreas delivers a The Peacemaker (high angle superkick) from nowhere and then applies a nasty Krakovian Crossface (chickenwing over the shoulder crossface) that nearly puts Jay out, but he manages the rope break. Andreas tries to press the advantage but Pride fights back. Half-nelson suplex nets Jay another near fall and the fans break out into a huge “We love FRONTIER!” chant. Jay fires off some kicks but Lasiewicz responds with a stiff roaring elbow and gives him a reverse DDT of sorts right on top of his head! Lasiewicz delivers a powerbomb but Jay gets right back up and fires off a spinkick before Lasiewicz lariats him. Jay rolls through a second powerbomb attempt into an ankle lock, but Lasiewicz counters that into the Krakovian Crossface again! Jay counters with a cradle for a near fall, but Lasiewicz gives him a stiff knee and shoulder shot before hitting a spinning sitout powerbomb which Jay somehow still kicks out of!!
Lasiewicz goes back to the Krakovian Crossface for a good long while, but Jay is able to eventually counter into the ankle lock again. Lasiewicz is so drained and so close to tapping that he bites down on his own thumb as he tries to block out the pain. Eventually Lasiewicz gets back to his feet but he collapses when he tries to put weight on the ankle and Jay nails him with a World of Sport Special (rebound lariat).
But, by god, Lasiewicz is a machine and he just gets back up again, smashing his fists on the canvas and yelling out as he does so. He ducks a clothesline, grabs Pride and connects a release German Suplex. Pride rolls backwards, bouncing up to his feet as he falls into the ropes. And then comes bouncing back with another World of Sport Special!!
He pulls Andreas to his feet, scoops him up and hits the Pride Eater (Sitout belly to belly piledriver) which earns him a very hard fought victory!
Your winner, Jay Pride!
A great match to end a great evening of wrestling here at the Doncaster Dome. Those two really tore the place down and showed everyone just why they are both World Champions. Credit to Gambino for not getting involved in this one, I had a feeling he was sure to turn up at some point. But this was a nice hard hitting contest that the fans just lapped up.
