Match #1
Both teams come out tentatively. The fight starts on the rails with one on one matches across the list. Both teams tie up. On the topside rail, Cerberus fighters are locked down by Warlords and vice versa. On the bottom side rail, Warlords fighter (Brett Skinner) fights against the rail while Cerberus fighter (Johny Porter) fights off the rail. Brett is able to use his strong Judo skills and take Johny down as Johny tries to step out and past Brett. The advantage is 5/4 Warlords. Both Warlords on the bottom rail fight against the lone Cerberus fighter and reap his legs in opposing directions taking him down. The advantage grows 5/3 to the Warlords. On the top rail, a Cerberus fighter (Micah Krug) holds his own against the big blue helmet axe man of the warlords and even when he’s at a 2 vs 1 disadvantage. The secondary Warlord gives up against Micah and moves to press another fighter. Four Warlords circle against two Cerberus in the corner and work to create an opening. A Cerberus fighter (Matthew Creedican) comes out and tries to get a take down but Warlords defend well. Creedican is told to take a knee by the Marshals (still not sure why) and the Warlords have a strong 5/2 advantage with the two brothers Micah and Daniel left. Warlord Captain (Brennon Freeman) steps, gets a head lock on Daniel and leans forward for a takedown. Warlords grind out a strong victory.
ANALYSIS
Both teams have strong wrestlers and strong takedown skills. The victory is in the initial match up. Brett Skinner is the most dangerous weapon in the Warlord roster and he’s able to slice a deep cut into the Cerberus lineup by taking down Johny Porter quickly. Warlords play and fight smart and use 2 vs 1 advantage very well and very quickly. The strength of the Warlords fighting is in knowing their strength. They use it at every turn and force Cerberus to make mistakes. (Spoiler alert) While Warlords win all the match ups against Cerberus, they’re forced to work hard for every one.
