3rd Match: Fred Rosser, Alex Coughlin & The DKC vs Team Filthy (JR Kratos, Royce Isaacs & Tom Lawlor)

As Fred Rosser continues to challenge STRONG Openweight Champion Tom Lawlor to no avail, this week’s main event will see Rosser team with Alex Coughlin and the DKC against Team Filthy’s Lawlor, Royce Isaacs and JR Kratos. As Kratos and Coughlin’s long standing issues seem set to continue, how will this ongoing drama voer the STRONG Championship develop?

2nd Match: Blake Christian vs JONAH

Blake Christian goes head to head with JONAH in singles action tonight. Christian prides himself on being called ‘All Heart’ and he’ll need every bit of that heart if he’s to last in the face of the Top Dog. Yet Christian is as skilled and resourceful as he is tenacious, and he could end up surprising JONAH. In the same week Christian’s friend and rival Alex Zayne got announced for Best of the Super Jr. 29, could we see Christian get the biggest win of his STRONG career?

1st Match: Stray Dog Army (Barrett Brown & Bateman) vs BULLET CLUB (Chris Bey & Hikuleo)

The action kicks off this week with Texas’ own Barrett Brown teaming with Bateman to take on Chris Bey and Hikuleo. As the talk of the wrestling world is BULLET CLUB once more, Stray Dog Army are seeking to ride that momentum, and crash the birthday party for the group with their biggest result to date. Can they upset Bey and Hikuleo?

The Coughlin/Kratos hatred is exquisite

I'd still be down for Rosser finally beating Lawlor for the belt
