Osborne reverses a cross-corner whip but misses the follow up charge; Gowan levels him with a running clothesline and a splash. A mounted ten-punch in the corner follows for Gowan, and then follows up with a leaping reverse DDT out of the corner; he tries one corner charge too many and posts his shoulder. Osborne stomps the shoulder into the ring post from the apron and then a dropkick in the ring; he focuses on the shoulder and then applies a chinlock. Gowan fires back but gets a whip reversed into a DDT for two. They exchange blows with Osborne getting the better of it; he then drops some fists and reapplies the headlock. Gowan fires back with an STO, rebounding off of a corner whip; he begins his comeback with forearms and clotheslines. He plants Osborne with a spinebuster but only gets a nearfall. Osborne pulls himself back to his feet while Gowan is talking about the count with the referee. Gowan turns, SUPERKICK! CJ pins, and gets the win!
Your winner, CJ Osborne!
CJ Osborne just turned that one on its head in one quick move; he just levelled Larry Gowan and advances to the semi-finals to face GDW’s Samantha Raine!
