The bell rings and this match is now underway! Bobby Larson circles the ring with Dayna Barrett sizing one another up. Dayna looks to possibly form an alliance but Larson nails her with a Lightning Strike Superkick! Dayna stumbles backwards against the ropes but on the rebound, she eats a second Lightning Strike Superkick for good measure! Bobby urgently pulls her up to a vertical base and grabs a hold of her head and tights, spinning her around and tossing Barrett over the top rope! Barrett lands on the apron, and Bobby tries to punch her off, but Barrett blocks and punches him right back, giving her room to re-enter the ring. Dayna Barrett whips Bobby right into the near turnbuckle and charges in, but Bobby uses the ropes to hoist himself up and over, getting behind Dayna Barrett, applying the gut wrench and flipping her over with a Side gutwrench suplex! He grabs a hold of the top rope and begins to stomp the living daylights out of Barrett as the clock begins to count down.

Bobby Larson grabs Cartier from behind and spins her around for a right hand, but Cartier ducks it! Cartier turns it into a GOT DAMN SLAM and Larson rolls away after getting planted, allowing Cartier to stick her tongue out and wiggle her ass for the crowd.
Cartier doesn’t see Dayna Barrett getting back up behind her though and she almost gets dumped over the top just like that, but manages to hang on. From the apron, Cartier springboards back into the ring and hits Barrett with a springboard meteora as she is walking away!

Diamonds are a girl's best friend, diamonds are a girl's best friend
Southern girl in me I ain't afraid to catch a case, VVS's on me and I flooded out the face
Diamonds are a girl's best friend, diamonds are a girl's best friend
I don't need you, I've got flooded out baguettes
I don't need you, all my diamonds dripping wet (Cartier)
Blue lights flood the arena with two spotlights centered on the entrance ramp as Bianca Reed walks out, stopping at the top of the ramp and lifting her shades to the top of her head. She rolls her eyes at the crowd and treats them to some smack talk as she struts down the ramp, making a “blah blah blah” gesture as she gets closer to the ring.
GRAHAM STEVENS: Now introducing entrant number six! Making her way to the ring at this time, from Atlanta, Georgia, she is the Princess of House Reed, the “Killer B”...BIANCA--REED!
I'm a super hero, bitch, don't try me hoe, bad like a villain, I pop it and then I reload
All the best things in life come for free, but don't you think that applies to me
I do what I want 'cause I know that I'm hot, I ain't a band but you know how I rock
Don't need no clippers to give you a chop, took me to dinner then I took him out
I like it when you call me crazy, long as you keep callin' baby
Upon reaching the ring, Bianca hops up onto the apron and leans back against the ropes, flashing a cocky smirk at the crowd before waving and ducking through into the ring.
Bianca Reed joins her stablemate Cartier inside the ring. Now with the double team we see Griffin is trying to fight both Cartier and Bianca Reed at the same time, but the numbers are too great. Cartier holds Hawkins in place as Reed goes for a hard right hand...but at the last second Hawkins ducks out of the way as Cartier is struck! Angered, Cartier verbally jumps down Bianca's throat...before Hawkins can go focus on someone else he is attacked from behind by Alan Envy! He tries to eliminate him but he fights it off, raking his eyes. As he's temporarily blinded he connects from behind with a backstabber!

"One pill makes you larger… "
A whimsical, almost enchanted melody beings to play. The female voices comes through again less distorted.
"One pill makes you larger… "
The soft rythem of a bassline comes in mimicking a marching drumbeat.
"…and one pill makes you small..."
The songs begins now, the intro sounding like the beating of war drums alongside the faint sound of helicopter rotors. The red lights on the entry pulse in perfect time to the beat. A small layer of fog begins to form at the top of the entrance ramp. The lights all around the arena slowly begins to pulse as well, causing one area of the building to turn red after another as the intro continues.
As the proper lyrics start, Penelope walks out from behind the curtain. She pauses atop the ramp, looking out at the arena.
GRAHAM STEVENS: Now introducing entrant number eleven! Making her way to the ring, by way of the Hotel California, she is the "Black Dahlia"...PENELOPE!
She begins to walk down to the ring, Penelope carrying a dead flower in her hands. As she walks she plucks the black, withered petals off the flower one at a time and lets them fall to the floor. This leaves a bizarre trail behind her as she goes. She drops the naked stem on the floor before she slides into the ring under the bottom rope.
Penelope has returned to Mainstream Wrestling for the first time in a very long time. She gets hammered with forearm shots from Victoria who whips Penelope into the corner. Victoria follows in with a handspring back elbow. Victoria lets Penelope come stumbling out of the corner, and grabs her whipping Penelope into the ropes. She comes back, and ducks another shot from Victoria, before rebounding off the far ropes. As Penelope comes back she jumps, grabbing onto Victoria's body. She rotates herself around in one smooth motion before grabbing Victoria's head and spiking it into the mat with a satellite DDT! Penelope stands up and moves on to Caroline Clarke.
Meanwhile Bobby Larson lifts Victoria Irving-Pointe up off the mat and lifts her up with a coop slam and drops her neck first across the top rope! Victoria is shocked and without breath for a moment when she turns holding her neck and leaning back against the ropes. Bobby Larson immediately clotheslines her over the top rope, where she would fall to the floor and be eliminated from the battle royal.

GRAHAM STEVENS: Now introducing entrant number thirteen! Making his way to the ring from Canyon Lake, California. Standing at six feet and one hundred and ninety five pounds. He is the United States Champion, the "Outsider"...LEX--COLLINS!
Collins bursts through the curtain and sprints towards the ring. Midway there, Lex stops and shrugs out of his Brutal Apparel hoodie, tossing it into the crowd. He pauses for a few selfies with fans before laying the United States Championship beside the steel steps and sliding in under the bottom rope.
Despite the chaos around them, Lex feints and then charges at AJ Knight, hitting him with a football tackle that drive both back into the ropes. Knight sends a stiff punch into the US Champ's jaw, almost as though sending a warning for the unprovoked assault. Lex doesn't even falter, shaking it off in an instant. He raises his hand with a cold smirk on his face, inviting a Greco Roman Knuckle Lock. Knight shakes his head but after a slight hesitation, reluctantly grabs Lex's hand – huge mistake! Collins shifts his weight, telegraphing the kidney shot he throws with his free hand. AJ Knight moves, as expected, right into a knee to the guts. Lex still has hold of Knight's hand and drags him in close, hooking his head before throwing some body shots, dragging Knight in closer before taking them over with that dangerous Mind Killer. The side slam backbreaker connects and Knight is already in a world of hurt when Collins snatches them into an inverted front face lock the moment they try to sit up. Too close to the ropes to bear fruit, Knight catches a break and nails Collins in the face with a wild elbow, forcing him off. The US Champ falls back, dazed from the lucky shot that hit just right.

Meanwhile, Cartier comes up from behind and nails Julianna. Hood Ratchet grab her and then attempt to suplex her, but Julianna lands on her feet.

Ready or not, here I come, you can't hide
Gonna find you and take it slowly
Ready or not, here I come, you can't hide
Gonna find you and make you want me!

After casually making his way to ringside, Alan Envy clubs down on Jason Cashe before he can stand, pounding away to keep the surprise return from rising. Cashe lifts with his shoulder and sends Alan Envy up and over the ropes!
(Sequence 4)
Bobby Larson is looking to be in rough shape as Caroline Clarke places the heel of her boot in his throat as he’s seated in the corner. There’s no ref to break it with any sort of count, but Bobby gets a reprieve as Cartier comes screaming in with a Running Clothesline, sending Caroline Clarke over the ropes and to the apron, where they wrap their arms and legs around the bottom rope. Bobby gets up to try and help Cartier eliminate Caroline Clarke, stomping at the ankles of Clarke to break their leg lock around the rope. Caroline isn’t letting go for anything, so Bobby decides to blast Cartier with a Forearm Shot to the side of the head! Big mistake, though, as Cartier doesn’t go down and instead grabs Bobby by the head, tossing him over the top rope! He manages to get back in the ring as Bobby ducks an attempted clothesline from Caroline Clarke! Bobby turns back to try to get back in, but Clarke turns on a dime and tags him with a devastating clothesline with such force that Bobby spins backwards 270 degrees and lands hard face first onto the mat!
MCKAYLA LEWIS: That's gotta hurt!

AJ Knight meets Jason Cashe in a stare as the two trade a few words and wave the other in. They close the distance before lunging together in a standing lock up.

Billy Danielson the World Television Champion slides in from the side, cracking Cashe with a super kick to the jaw! Cashe stiffens before collapsing to the side. Both Danielson and AJ Knight begin pulling Jason Cashe up so they can send him over the ropes.

A double clothesline by Jason Cashe onto Billy Danielson and AJ Knight puts all three men on the mat for the time being. Cartier gets pulled up into a vertical suplex by DiMaria, but she wriggles free and lands behind her. She shoves Julianna forward against the ropes and starts trying to wrestle her over the top, but she snaps an elbow back into her face and Cartier staggers back a few steps.
Julianna charges Cartier then but Cartier scoops her up and drops her throat-first across the top rope! Julianna is choked by the rope and turns around right into a drop toe hold from Cartier, which drops her and leaves her draped across the second rope.
Cartier gets a wild look in her eye and decides to try something new…she hits the ropes and then runs at the hung up Julianna, swinging through the top and second ropes into an ASS-ONE-NINE! DiMaria practically gets her nose stuck in Cartier’s ass with as deep as it got slammed in there!
Julianna DiMaria meanwhile is hanging on as Cartier tries to dump her over the top rope. At the last second, Julianna rakes the eyes and Cartier stumbles back.

Julianna gets up in time to see Penelope coming at her with a clothesline, but Julianna is able to duck underneath it.
Penelope turns around and Julianna gets her to double over with a shoulder tackle.

She presses her knee to the back of the neck and continues to torture her for the most part. She steps back and Penelope uses the ropes to pull herself up. Julianna then knees her in the gut and attempts to get them over the top rope. Joined by Lex Collins the two send Penelope over the top rope and crashing to the floor.
With a second wind kicking in, Cartier starts throwing hands with anyone who gets within arm’s reach.

Grabbing Cashe by the head, Cartier pulls his face downward into a code breaker!
Cashe stumbles back against the ropes and Cartier hops up and takes off running, throwing her bountiful booty at Cashe with an EAT THIS ASS, looking for the elimination! Cashe steps aside at the last minute though and Cartier ends up flying through the ropes, hitting the floor hard with her rear end!
Cartier rolls around on the floor, grabbing her ass and wincing in pain before getting up and rolling back into the ring to continue the fight.
Collins comes dashing across the ring and smashing into Cartier with a springboard knee! She staggers back but Collins is there to catch them, and he plants them on the canvas with a diving DDT! Cartier is quick to her feet, getting a huge pop from the crowd for the recovery and despite the cobwebs, manage to take Collins down with a messy lariat. Lex however, is faster on his feet, and he manages to capitalize on the botched move, nailing Cartier in the back of the head with a huge forearm shot. The Queen falls to her knees and Collins kicks her in the back of the head before hoisting her up – AD HOMINEM adds insult to injury!
MCKAYLA LEWIS: Oh boy, things are not looking good for OPPONENT right now.
CHARLES HUDSON: Are you kidding, Lou? This is probably the best Pinnacle Battle Royal we've ever seen! The level of the talent in this one is literally off the charts!
Collins grabs Cartier by the hair and helps her up, right into an onslaught of strikes before sending her reeling back against the rope. It's a dangerous place to be and Collins almost looks like he's going to relent as he backs off, only to charge in with a knee strike and lariat across the throat that flips Cartier over the top rope! It looks like she might hit the floor but she manages to catch hold of the second rope and skin the cat! The crowd goes nuts for the save but that quickly sours as Collins connects with a baseball slide that sends her crashing to the floor!
Billy Danielson is looking worse for wear as an unlikely alliance between Julianna DiMaria and Jason Cashe start to beat him down in the center of the ring. Danielson lands a lucky punch that staggers Cashe, but this allows DiMaria to drive Billy into the corner. DiMaria wraps his arms up in the corner ropes as Jason Cashe joins in. Together, they begin to chop and forearm-smash Danielson in the corner. The Franchise is seemingly out as Cashe whips DiMaria into the corner for a DOUBLE KNEE METEORA- DANIELSON CAUGHT DIMARIA...POWERBOMB!
Danielson collapses into the corner in exhaustion, but throws an arm up for the fans to let them know he’s still in this!

Larson comes back to try to knock her off completely, but Julianna delivers a desperation elbow at the last second. Julianna quickly uses the top rope to springboard herself into a sunset flip powerbomb taking Larson down with her straight into the mat. Julianna winces being in her own pain, but is able to quickly recover. Meanwhile BOBBY Larson rolls under the bottom turnbuckle to recover. Jason Cashe comes at her with a running big boot, but she is able to duck it. She grabs Cashe from behind and then drives him into the mat with a forward Russian legsweep that makes him eat the mat.

Julianna isn’t nearly done with him as she locks Cashe in a headscissors chokehold. Cashe really struggles to breathe and Julianna is holding on to him, trying to wear him down. She breaks the hold once she feels like she’s got a good advantage. Julianna drags Cashe up and then clasps him with a headscissors near the ropes. She grabs the bottom rope for leverage and then tries to use that leverage to get Jason Cashe up and over the top rope but he drops to the mat like dead weight as Julianna stumbles backwards.
Immediately Bobby Larson and Lex Collins pull and drag Cashe to his feet. Making sure to hit him and keep him from bursting free, they lean him against the corner turnbuckles. At each side of him, they lift, trying to get him up and over the ropes. DiMaria returns to the scene, crashing into Lex Collins, snatching him up from behind and snapping up and back with a sick Back body drop!

CHARLES HUDSON: NO WAY! Lex Collins managed to pull off a DDT?
MCKAYLA LEWIS: I am really thinking working with Biggs has paid off, at least in the skills department.
Collins gets up and stomps on Knight’s shoulder before hauling him back to his feet. He pulls Knight to a vertical base and sets him up for a shoulder mount.

BOBBY LARSON & JULIANNA DIMARIA ELIMINATED BY LEX COLLINS
Bobby Larson looks up at Lex Collins who shrugs but he slowly turns to AJ Knight who looks to scoop him over the top rope! A couple back elbow to the shoulder of Knight crests separation.
Collins grabs Knight by the back of his head, and throws him into the ropes for an Irish Whip, but Knight counters, and sends Collins into the ropes instead. Knight lifts him for a back body drop then grabs the US Champ and yanks him to his feet, kicking him in the guts. Knight sidesteps and locks Collins into a pump handle, lifting him up onto his shoulders but Collins slips out the backdoor. He throws a knee into the small of the back, slaps on an inverted face-lock, and delivers an inverted DDT. He drives a knee into the back and then the ribs of his AJ Knight.
CHARLES HUDSON: NO WAY! Lex Collins managed to pull off a DDT?
MCKAYLA LEWIS: I am really thinking working with Biggs has paid off, at least in the skills department.
Collins gets up and stomps on Knight’s shoulder before hauling him back to his feet. He pulls Knight to a vertical base and sets him up for a shoulder mount. Before he could pull off any move, he loses his grip and Knight slips behind him, locks in a full nelson, lifts him off his feet but he wriggles away. Both men have their hands up circling the ring as the final two and getting an enormous pop from the crowd!
CHARLES HUDSON: The fans here in Madison Square Garden are on their feet!

Lex Collins grabs AJ with a head scissors and attempts to flip him out of the ring! AJ manages to get a hand on the apron and uses it to push himself back between the ropes, where he immediately rolls to the floor under the bottom rope. He grabs opponent by the foot and attempts to yank him off the apron, but only one of of Collins’ feet are on the floor, while they have the other foot firmly wrapped in the apron! He boots AJ in the chest before rolling back into the ring challenging AJ to come back in!
Collins and Knight circle each other warily, looking for an opening. Darting in, Lex unleashes a flurry of punches and knee strikes that catch AJ Knight off guard. He tries to fight back with a series of quick, technical moves, but Collins is too fast and his strikes are too deadly, even when they're both showing signs of fatigue. Lex lands a series of stiff shots that send Knight reeling back into the ropes. Bricks connects and spins Knight around, leaving him sprawled against the top rope. As Knight struggles to stay on his feet, Collins goes for the kill, looking to eliminate Knight with a flying elbow drop off the top. At the last possible second, Knight falls and Collins hits the top rope, botching the move and sending himself over – HE MANAGES TO HOOK THE TOP ROPE, HIS FEET DANGLING OVER THE EDGE OF THE APRON. Seizing the opportunity, Knight springs back to his feet and grabs Lex's arm, wrenching it violently, attempting to dislocate his shoulder and eliminate him. Collins grits his teeth and fights through the pain, managing to get his feet under him and stay on the apron even as Knight tries to force him to lose his grip!
The crowd's hushed. With a burst of adrenaline, Collins drives a shoulder into the face of Knight and springs back over the rope, almost taking his head off with a springboard crossbody!
MCKAYLA LEWIS: He clearly wasn't kidding when he claimed to have cracked the code on battle royal matches.
Taking the fight to AJ Knight, Collins nails a kick to the solar plexus, driving the wind from his lungs, and then as Knight is falling, hits another flawless springboard knee to the temple – SYSTEMATIC BREAKDOWN 2.0!
He staggers back into the ropes! Collins comes in with a lariat, looking to eliminate AJ Knight but he drops and drags the top rope down! Collins lands on the apron and immediately rolls back under the bottom rope. AJ Knight is tired but he pushes thru. Leading Lex Collins back to his feet but the back of his head and chin. A right hand by Knight onto the jaw of Lex Collins rocks the United States Champion. Knight grabs Collins by the back of the neck and looking to whip him over the top rope but reversal by Lex Collins using the momentum to send AJ Knight over the top rope and he tumbles to the arena floor!
