5. Laurentian League: Justin Seville [1] vs. AJ Knight [1] ended in a draw (15:00) when the time limit expired.

All eight of the wrestlers competing in the Laurentian League came out for a special ceremony to start the show.  Pierre the Masked Canuck thanked the fans for coming and displayed the Laurentian heavyweight title - which will be awarded to the winner of the league.  Riel Buck reasoned that Pierre should give the title to BOB and spare an injury list a mile long, but Pierre told Buck that he was glad he was confident in his client, because he's confident in the other seven wrestlers' abilities. 

Owen Daniels gave a strong effort in his debut against fellow newcomer Harry Black, who has nine years experience on the rookie.  However, the experience edge played a big factor and Black managed to deliver the Blacklist DDT to Daniels and get the win after six minutes.  Black offered his hand, but the brash rookie flipped him off and walked to the back.

BOB was led to the ring by Riel Buck and took less than five minutes to dismantle SR Dojo trainer Joey Bailey.  Bailey tried to use holds on the Green-faced Goliath but BOB kept powering out and using his signature headbutts to attack, finally finishing Bailey off with a diving headbutt.  Buck got on the house mic to remind fans that one was down with six to go.

The Best of 5 Series between Strange Brew and Masked Hysteria began was a wild, tornado-style brawl.  Referee Darnell Cane was joined by Robbie Morris and the two tried to keep order together, but the action was all over with mask tearing and blood! The Brew were clearly not happy about Hysteria's cheating in their last match against one another and chose to fight fire with fire and multiple low blows from both sides were let go by both referees.  Late in the match, Hysteria's double team attempt was interrupted by True North Ant who dragged #2 out of the ring.  #1 was suplexed and then trapped in a cobra clutch STF and though he tried to fight it, he was forced to tap when #2 was unable to get in and make the save. 

Ethan Lucas brought the fight to Drew Dream, showing fans why he's known as a loose cannon.  The two battled inside the ring and out with Dream's neck being a frequent target, but the bubbly babyface was able to survive the onslaught and gained some measure of revenge when he nailed a stunner to earn the three after nine minutes.  Dream kept an eye out for Justin Seville, clearly not trusting the Snake's words about being in cahoots with Lucas... but Seville was nowhere to be found. 

A feud from Lion's Road was reignited in the main event as Justin Seville and AJ Knight took each other to the limit.  Seville focused his attacks on Knight's elbow and neck, both of which were originally injured by the Cottonmouth in 2018.  AJ in turn was none too kind with Seville's arm, which had been broken and kept him out of action for most of 2019.  Seville began favouring the arm halfway through the match and the crowd erupted each time AJ slapped on a Fujiwara armbar, but Seville was always in close proximity to the ropes.  At one point, Seville grabbed AJ's arm and leapt over the top rope - jumping to the floor and bringing the arm and elbow of the Crusader down across the top rope! As time wound down, it became clear that fifteen minutes wouldn't be enough to determine a winner between these two.  Seville tried a sneak attack after the match, laying out AJ and dragging him out to the floor.  He set him up for a piledriver, but Drew Dream ran out to make the save and Seville slowly retreated.  Dream offered a lollipop to AJ, but the SR newcomer wasn't too sure what to make of the gesture.
