This week’s episode of Fusion begins at World Titan Federation Headquarters. Mister Saint Laurent has his foot on the table, complaining about being bitten by Warner. He says Cardona is going to get his hands on SGC.
The intro music for the show plays. Now, in the arena, Joe Dombrowski and Matt Striker are on commentary. They spoke about the return of Salina De La Renta. They also hyped the show’s main event and the debut of Minoru Suzuki at MLW’s next live event, Slaughterhouse.
MSL stood in the ring and said he had resigned from his position in MLW. He introduced Snisky as the latest member of his World Titan Federation.
Snisky (w/MSL) vs. Yoscifer El
This match was short-lived, as it was a squash match for Snisky. He ended the match with a chokeslam to Yoscifer El for the three count.

Microman & The Mane Event (Jay Lyon & Midas Black) vs. Jesus Rodriguez & The FBI (Little Guido and Ray Jaz)
The match was your typical comedic match, which is usually the case with Microman. Towards the end of the match, both Black & Lyon of the Mane Event held out their ring, and then Microman performed a Vader Bomb through it on Guido. He covered Guido for the three count and victory.

After the match, Sam Adonis came out with a chair. Adonis claims Microman is one of the most hated men in Mexico. Adonis continues to lace into Microman, saying he has a wife and a newborn baby, but he is jealous of the attention that his newborn son is getting.
Snisky then came down with MSL and performed a double chokeslam on Lyon and Black while Adonis took care of Microman. MSL cuts a promo about his World Titan Federation. MSL said Snisky played college football and was also a punter. Adonis lined up Microman for a field goal.

Back from the break, Sam Laterna interviewed Sam Adonis in the backstage area, and then a graphic showing Microman vs. Adonis is scheduled for next week.

WXW Unified World Championship: Shigehiro Irie (c) vs. Calvin Tankman
It is now main event time!
The match was a good back-and-forth match. Certain points of the match wound up outside the ring, but whether in the ring or outside the ring, the action was non-stop.
Later in the match, Tankman hit a popup back elbow and then power-bombed Irie but only got a two-count. Tankman went to set up for his finisher, but Irie blocked it. Irie hit Tankman with a flurry of offense in the corner, then hit back-to-back Lariats to pick up the victory.
Result: Shigehiro Irie defeats Calvin Tankman to retain his championship
In a show of great sportsmanship after the match, Irie went to ringside and shook Tankman’s hand. Tankman responded by raising Irie’s arm.
The broadcast team announces an Alex Kane press conference regarding his next title defense on next week’s episode.
We close the show with Jacob Fatu in a parking garage and applauding. Fatu said he has to give it to MLW and Court Bauer. He then spoke about Minoru Suzuki coming to MLW. He says that Suzuki has never run into a Uce before!
