As we continue to rattle through the back catalogue of pre-Extreme Channel content, it’s back to the Grand Ole Opry in Glasgow for the back half of Most Wanted II.

The episode opened with Brodie Adler backstage after first blood match with Penelope Grace telling Kayleigh that Brodie has a big pal coming to batter Penelope and her new pal Aerin Taylor.

Lou King Sharp & Iceman defeated The New Age Kliq (Chris Renfrew & Fulton King) by pinfall.

Chris Renfrew revealed that Big F’N Joe happened to be in a big f’n accident and wouldn’t be able to appear, he gave Lou King Sharp a couple options, accept defeat, face them in a handicap match, or if anyone was stupid enough to come out they could be his tag team partner.

The middle option was the chosen answer with Renfrew and Fulton King battering Sharp from pillar to post until Iceman’s music hit and through the crowd a kendo stick hauling Iceman went to swinging it off the back of Fulton while Sharp launched a chair off the skull of Chris Renfrew while ‘Cold As Ice’ boomed over the speakers.

As you’d expect, the match moved from the confines of the ring, out of the Opry, and to the streets with a bloody Iceman being whipped into a steel barrier before trading punches with Fulton King on the road while cars tried to go around the brawl.

After an on-street scrap, it was back inside the venue where the brawl didn’t let up. Renfrew smashed a chair off the head of Sharp while Iceman took out Fulton King to set up a showdown between the pair that Iceman got the better of.

Lou King Sharp and Fulton King returned to the ring with Sharp crashing a chair into the side of Fulton via a Van Terminator, finishing the job by laying the chair on the chest of King and landing a Frog Splash to take the win.

It was your regularly scheduled chaotic madness for VALOR. The feud between Lou King Sharp and Chris Renfrew continues with Sharp once again not able to pin The Godfather of Insanity.

Chris Bungard defeated Mikey Devine by submission.

Mikey Devine entered with no knee pads or wrist tape which made him look like a very naked man. Once that thought subsided he was fair game to lock on with Chris Bungard and get into a grapple.

Bungard managed to keep control with Devine doing his best to shift the tempo and bring it into a more pro wresting world, the pair traded German Suplexes and pin attempts, with one misstep on a 6-1-Devine almost costing Mikey the match straight away with Chris Bungard quickly locking the ankle up.

Devine rolled through to send Bungard out of the ring for a breather, but the mixed martial artist was relentless on getting Mikey to tap. Bungard went back to the ankle lock, only to find himself holding the boot of Devine and running into a small package for a two count.

To the top turnbuckle Mikey Devine went for a shotgun dropkick, but Bungard caught the legs and transitioned into a Sharpshooter. Mikey couldn’t hold out much longer and tapped out.

The first real competitive match from Chris Bungard in VALOR, it saw him adapt to a more proficient grappler. It took one mistake from Mikey that ultimately saw the result not go his way which is begging for a best of three just to prove that that one stumble was the difference maker between a win and loss.

Kayleigh was joined by “The Mikester” who declared that Mussomania was going to run wild. The things Mike Musso does to try and stop people calling him Uncle Mike eh.

Triple Threat – Krobar w/Jan Islav defeated Mike Musso, and Frank of the Cross by pinfall.

God’s Country and Eastern Bloc united to jump Mike mid-pose to get the triple threat underway, with Musso down Krobar and Frank decided it was time for a bit of posing that lead to them nothing being grabbed by a recovered Uncle Mike for a noggin’ knocker.

Musso ran wild, ramming Krobar into the turnbuckle and sending the Polish Powerhouse splashing into Frank of the Cross in the corner. The union of factions got back onto the same page on the outside to double team Musso, taking turns to punish The Merchandise.

Frank faked out Krobar by sending him for a chair while he tried to nip a pin which ended the alliance. Krobar and Frank came to blows which allowed for Musso to dive from the second turnbuckle with a crossbody to take both of his opponents down.

The match went back to ringside where a barrage of ball busting low blows had all three men walking a little funny. Musso connected with the Blunt Force Trauma DDT to Frank of the Cross but the count was stopped by Jan Islav dragging referee Archie Williams out of the ring.

Krobar took advantage of the situation to kick Musso in the stomach and drive him to the ground with a DDT of his own to collect the victory.

A variety match, it has some silly with the testicular trauma, the good guy overcoming the odds, but in the end it wasn’t to be. Krobar needed a win, with a note that it was thanks in large part to Jan Islav doing the dirty work to give Krobar the opening. The crossover of God’s Country and Eastern Bloc was a fun little dynamic.

Mikey Devine joined Kayleigh who made it clear that it wouldn’t be the last the VALOR audience would see him.

UEWA European Heavyweight Championship – Open Challenge – BT Gunn defeated Irn Dru Marshall w/Chris Renfrew, Fulton King, and Sami Sparx by pinfall.

It looked like Chris Renfrew was taking up the challenge as The New Age Kliq surrounded the ring. BT begged for Renfrew while taking out the other three members. Gunn spent a little too long concentrating on Chris Renfrew which gave Irn Dru the chance to return to the ring and officially start the match.

Gunn absorbed the punishment to turn it around, putting the boots to Marshall before being distracted by The New Age Kliq skulking about ringside. A normally quite chilled BT Gunn showed no signs of joy with his head in a swivel to keep an eye on the stable while trying to control the horse (so to speak).

A nice inverted Final Cut caught a two count with BT not giving Irn Dru a second to gather wind, two open palm chops to the chest looked to cave in Marshall’s rib cage. Dru got a foot up on a corner rush but missed a ring up Moonsault with Gunn stepping aside.

Renfrew got into the ring, offering a hand. Gunn refused and was subjected to a New Age Kliq beatdown, and on the receiving end of Killer Boots.

The locker room emptied with Tommy Lockhart, Mike Musso, Mikey Devine, Ozzy, Brodie Adler, and Daisy Jenkins following behind Lou King Sharp to chase off the interrupters.

As things started to settle, Gunn rolled up Marshall to retain.

Rudo Lightning made his way out to announce that the match would be ran back in Paisley but with The New Age Kliq being banned from ringside. Plus that it would be Team NAK against Team VALOR at Red Dead Wrestling III.

It was less of match but more of further cementing the rift between The New Age Kliq, more specifically Chris Renfrew, with BT Gunn. Gunn being very aware of what tactics that Renfrew could employ was shown so well, and him being the victim to Killer Boots was quite the visual.

Lou King Sharp rallying the troops for the upcoming gang warfare hyped up the crowd and created a buzz to really make you feel part of Team VALOR, with the unanimous noise even having Chris Renfrew show some momentary doubt in his eyes.

These episodes of This Is VALOR are really well put together to have every show have a snapshot of VALOR in about 80 minutes, the violence, the drama, the athleticism, all encapsulated perfectly to keep the interest fresh. This was a great edition to showcase that all.
