Monday Night Combat (12/29/08): End of the Year Bash
LIEUTENANT
1. Rock II v. Essa Rios (Table-docs)
Winner: Essa Rios
Notes: Rock II couldn't get it done against Martin Prince last week in The Champions Tournament, but he's a new face to the Division, so he has time to grow stronger. Tonight he'll get to do just that when he faces Essa Rios in a table match. Essa is meanwhile waiting for his Championship opportunity this month.
2. The Champions Tournament
The Master v. Kahlan (Single-docs)
Winner: The Master
Notes: The Master and Kahlan are the next two Lieutenants who will get a shot at becoming the next Lieutenant Champion this week. The two will tangle in a singles match with the winner facing the Champion this Friday for the Title.
3. Lieutenant X-Force Championship (with Special Guest Referee Kahlan)
Eric The Torture (c) v. Destroyer (Single-docs [Destroyer gets 2 extra staff of choice])
Winner and NEW Lieutenant X-Force Champion: Destroyer
Notes: Kahlan was not happy that Eric defeated her tag team partner to become the Lieutenant X-Force Champion last week on Combat. So, she challenged him to a match of his choice on Mayhem. If she won, she would choose his opponent tonight. Eric chose a ladder match to Kahlan's chagrin, and Kahlan won. Now, Eric must face Kahlan's tag team partner, Destroyer, in a rematch, but this time Kahlan will be making the calls in the ring as the ref.
CAPTAIN
1. Non-Title Match
Samoa Machine v. The Heartbreak Kid (Ladder-docs)
Winner: The Heartbreak Kid
Notes: Samoa Machine will face HBK in a Non-title ladder match tonight as the two sluggers throwdown their strongest hits. Who will escape without injury and with their arm raised in victory?
2. Escaping the Gauntlet
HaydenHardKore v. The Ultimate Kid (Single-docs)
Winner: HaydenHardKore
Notes: The Grammar Fairy got past Marcus Airbourne in stage one of the Captain Gauntlet, but a new competitor has entered the Tournament. The Ultimate Kid may be new to the Division, but he's eager to get started at making his rise to the top.
COLONEL
1. Escaping the Gauntlet
HawkEye v. RJ Wild (Ladder-docs)
Winner: HawkEye
Notes: The winner of HawkEye and War Child will take on RJ Wild in stage 2 of the Colonel Gauntlet tonight. The match will also contain numerous ladders which will add some spice to what may happen in the end.
2. Non-Title Match
Sergei Kravinoff v. Luther (Table-docs)
No Contest
Notes: Sergei Kravinoff takes on Luther in a table match tonight after having last week off. Is Sergei ready to usher in the New Year with a big victory?
GENERAL
1. Last Laugh Tournament
Big Closet v. Falling Angel (Table-docs)
Winner: Falling Angel
Notes: I originally said that the losers of round 1 would get the last laugh by choosing a winner in a rematch. I changed my mind because I want to get the last laugh. So, I will be choosing who faces whom, and tonight in the first Round 1 Last Laugh rematch, Big Closet will take on Falling Angel in a table match. The winner of this match will move on to round 2.
2. Last Laugh Tournament
Gnarfflinger v. Muhammad Hassan (Ladder-docs)
Winner: Muhammad Hassan
Notes: Gnarfflinger was defeated by Psycho Savage in round 1 of the LL Tournament, but tonight he will get a shot at redemption when he takes on Jake Steele, who won his match by default. Can the frying pan butcher get his revenge in a ladder match?
3. Last Laugh Tournament
CHARISMATIC HARDY v. frog man (Single-docs)
Winner: frog man
Notes: The loser of the round 1 matchup between BB2 and CH will face the winner of the frog man/StrikerLT bout in this Last Laugh Round 1 rematch. The winner here will move on, while the loser will go back to the drawing board with a long face.
4. Last Laugh Tournament
Pennylane v. Slim Shady (Cage-docs)
Winner: Pennylane
Notes: The loser of the Pennylane/Black Dead or Genesis match will take on Slim Shady in a cage tonight in a round 1 rematch. Slim was impressive in his round 1 victory, but now he needs to jump one more hurdle before getting to round 2.

2. Gold Tag Team Tournament Match
Guerreros de la Calle v. Catastrophic Duo (docs)
Winner: Catastrophic Duo
Notes: Guerreros de la Calle look impressive, but then again, so do their opponents tonight, Catastrophic Duo. Only one will move on, and it will go down to the wire.
3. Gold Tag Team Tournament Match
Lost Cause v. Bulldog Savages (docs)
Winner: Lost Cause by default
Notes: Lost Cause will take on Bulldog Savages in the last tag tournament match of the night. Both of these teams have fought before, but tonight the stakes are raised and it's time to bring the best to the ring.
