Last week, Salina de la Renta extended an olive branch to Savio Vega to help put some money back into IWA. The proposal was to have Azteca Underground acquire IWA. Will Vega accept this great offer? In Puerto Rico, Vega informs de la Renta and Azteca Underground that IWA and its pride is not for sale. He declines their offer.

Up next, the "Heavyweight Hustle" Calvin Tankman will return for singles action!

Before Tankman's match, we look back at the exchange TJP and Bu Ku Dao had after they unsuccessfully challenged Los Parks for their World Tag Team Titles. On social media, everyone is on Bu Ku Dao's side. They believe TJP was a sore loser and shouldn't have put his hands on Dao.

Calvin Tankman vs. Zenshi

Zenshi ducks behind for a single leg takedown after the bell rings. The "Heavyweight Hustle" throws Zenshi towards the corner. Zenshi tries to send Tankman flying with a head scissors takeover. Tankman meets Zenshi midair with a huge dropkick! He follows it up with another big power move, a spinebuster. He looks for a cover. Zenshi kicks out at two. Tankman tosses Zenshi across the ring again for another near fall.

Tankman puts Zenshi down with a powerslam but misses a running shooting star press. Tankman has Zenshi up in the fireman's carry position. Zenshi tries to scratch and claw out of it. Tankman charges toward Zenshi with a big pounce! Zenshi escapes out of a backbreaker attempt! Zenshi shimmies free from the Tankman Driver to land a 619 from the ropes. Tankman finally catches Zenshi with the Tankman Driver and gains the pinfall victory.

Winner: Calvin Tankman

Last week, MLW broadcasted their first-ever Baklei Brawl Match between Mads Krügger and Alex Hammerstone. Hammerstone thought he had won the match, but Krügger fooled him with a decoy of himself before ripping Hammerstone apart.

This week, Rich Bocchini reports that Hammerstone suffered a concussion, and "The Black Hand of CONTRA" hasn't been seen since. CONTRA Unit demands the production team to play their propaganda video from Josef Samael. He says that he has recruited Krügger to the mountains of Russia to get him prepared to take down Hammerstone's empire for good. And tonight, he believes Injustice will see their demise against Daivari and Simon Gotch.

We look back on how this eight-month rivalry between CONTRA Unit and Injustice began. Both teams will settle the score later on in this broadcast.

Up next, Alicia Atout will sit down with Richard Holliday to address his controversial win over Savio Vega from two weeks ago.

Before Alicia Atout puts Richard Holliday in the hot seat, MLW speaks with Lio Rush before his main event Title vs. Title Match. He says this is a big opportunity for Laredo Kid to prove himself in the company. But he thinks that he'll win the match and become a double champion.

Richard Holliday doesn't like how Alicia Atout introduced him as the "Self-Proclaimed Caribbean Champion." Atout ignores his statement and asks what's going on between him and referee Tim Donaghy. He says all he knows is that they're good friends, and he had no say on having Donaghy officiate the match. Atout wants to know why so many people betted on him to win the match at the very last second. He doesn't have an answer for that. All he says is that gambling is a popular thing right now. Atout questions Donaghy gatekeeping his title match. Holliday warns Atout it's never good to make assumptions if she doesn't have proof. Holliday warns her that his father/lawyer will be in contact with her soon. He hangs up on their interview.

Next, Saint Laurent reveals who made it on Pro Wrestling Illustrated's Top-10 this week:

10. Laredo Kid

9. Daivari

8. Myron Reed

7. Mil Muertes

6. Richard Holliday

5. Mads Krügger

3. Low Ki

2. Tom Lawlor

1. Alex Hammerstone

We head back to the ring for some tag team action!

CONTRA Unit (Simon Gotch & Daivari) vs. Injustice (Jordan Oliver & Myron Reed)

Before the match even begins, the World Heavyweight Champion Jacob Fatu viciously attacks Injustice from behind. Daivari and Simon Gotch take advantage of this. Myron Reed takes flight with a beautiful senton over the top rope! Injustice join forces with a superkick/cutter combination on the World Champion. Gotch and Daivari make their exit with Fatu. It looks like Injustice is winning this one!
