27th June 2021
The show starts with an opening video package. A narrator’s voice is heard….
“For years….battles have been fought……two sides with a dispute on politics……religion…….areas of land. These disputes will often end in war, where many lives will never be the same again…….tonight these eight men (showing The Bullet Club and the OG Bullet Club) will put their bodies on the line to settle a dispute….over the legacy of a name….over a name that shaped their careers and in many ways is synonymous with their identities. Tonight, two army’s will be contained inside two rings, trapped inside a steel structure…..one army will reign victorious….the other will disband but the feeling of failure will linger forever. Tonight…..two armys go to war……and the squared circle in which many brave men and women (showing all the roster on tonight’s card) have fought for centuries……will become their Battleground…..”
The pyro explodes in the Allstate Arena in Chicago Illinois for PWU Battleground!! Approximately 15,000 in attendance for tonight’s show and we are welcomed by our commentary team, Mauro Ranallo and Nigel McGuinness!
Ranallo: ”Welcome to PWU Battleground! It’s a hot night here in Chi town and there you see above the two rings, the structure that tonight will contain The Bullet Club and the OG Bullet Club consisting of Prince Devitt, Kenny Omega and The Good Brothers!”
McGuinness: ”That really is going to be a war and don’t forget that The Good Brothers gained an advantage for their team after defeating Drew Galloway and Adam Cole at Warfare two weeks ago! Will that play into the match at all? I have to say, I don’t like The Bullet Club’s chances in this one.”
Ranallo: ”Another highly anticipated match for the PWU World Heavyweight Championship as Aleister defends against CM Punk!”
McGuinness: ”In recent weeks, CM Punk has had Aleister’s number, we could very well see a new champion crowned tonight!”
Ranallo: ”I agree Nigel, and could we also find out who has been responsible for the attacks on The Anarchy over the past two weeks!?”
Ranallo is interrupted as Kevin Steen’s music hits and we are ready for the opening match of Battleground!
This one doesn’t take long to get started as Kevin Steen meets Sammy Guevara on the ramp and the two instantly trade right hands! The referee skips out of the ring to try and maintain order but to no avail as Steen throws Sammy into the steel barricade! Steen drags Sammy towards the ring by the head and bounces his head off the ring apron. Steen gets Sammy in position for a powerbomb on the ring apron but Sammy manages to jump down behind Steen and pushes him into the ring apron front first! Sammy rolls into the ring and the bell sounds. Steen rolls into the ring holding his ribs and Guevara pounces straight away with boots and a flurry of punches to Steen. Sammy measures Steen and delivers a basement dropkick to the head of Steen. Sammy taunts the crowd and a chant of ‘Kill Steen Kill’ echos throughout the Allstate Arena. Guevara helps Steen to his feet before whipping him off the ropes and tries to catch him coming back with a front dropkick but Steen holds on to the ropes resulting in Sammy crashing down hard! Steen delivers numerous boots to Guevara’s stomach before whipping him into the corner and following up with a corner clothesline. Guevara is seated in the corner and Steen gets the fans riled up before crashing into Sammy with the cannon ball! Steen goes for a cover, 1…..2…..near fall! Steen picks Sammy up and slaps him across the face before going for a cradle piledriver but Guevara counters with a back body drop. Guevara waits for Steen to get to his feet and catches him with an enziguri to the back of Steen’s head! Steen ends up balanced on the middle rope. Guevara uses the top rope for leverage and delivers a nice slingshot leg drop over the top rope landing on the back of Steen’s head landing Steen face first into the ring apron. Guevara taunts some fans at ringside before heading back into the ring. Guevara climbs on the apron and waits for Steen to get to his feet before springing from the top rope and attempting a springboard clothesline but Steen counters with a mid air dropkick! Very back and forth match so far! Steen hits Sammy with a huge lariat with flips Sammy inside out! Steen now has a head of steam and the crowd are pumped up! Steen lifts Sammy up and again slaps him in the face before setting him off the ropes for a Pop Up Powerbomb attempt but Sammy counters Steen’s attempt and jumps over him and follows up from the other side with a springboard cutter from the middle rope! Great move by Sammy and he goes for the cover, 1……..2…….no!! Steen rolls the shoulder up! Guevara remonstrates with the referee before hitting Steen with a few quick kicks to the face. Guevara lifts Steen up and gets him in position for the Burning Hammer GTS but Steen elbows Sammy in the face before going behind him and hitting a half nelson release suplex! Guevara landing hard on his head! Steen goes for another cover but again only gets a two count! Steen delivers a running senton splash to Guevara before heading to the top rope. Steen dives off the top rope and hits a picture perfect frog splash!! Steen hooks the leg, 1……….2…………no!! Another near fall! Guevara not giving up his title that easily! Steen picks Guevara up and goes for the Stunner but Sammy counters and executes a nice roll up pin with a bridge, 1…….2……near fall! Both men charge at each other, Steen ducks a clothesline attempt and follows up with a Stunner!!! Steen covers, 1…………2……….kick out! Sammy kicks out of the Stunner! Steen and the crowd can’t believe it! Steen argues with the referee but as this happens, Sammy is getting back to his feet. Sammy sneaks behind Steen and gets him in position for the Burning Hammer GTS and connects with it! Guevara hooks the leg, 1……….2………no!! Steen somehow kicks out! Sammy cant believe it! Guevara heads to the top rope and goes for a 450 splash! Sammy jumps but Steen moves out the way, leaving Sammy to crash hard with impact! Steen lets Sammy get to his feet before hitting his cradle piledriver! Steen lifts a prone Sammy to his feet and hits another Stunner! Steen covers, 1………..2……….3!!! Kevin Steen is the new Xcite Champion!
Steen is quite emotional as he raises his first PWU title in the air in celebration! Sammy eventually rolls out of the ring and looks dazed as he walks to the back.
Ranallo: ”What a way to kick off Battleground! Congratulations to Kevin Steen!”
McGuinness: ”Indeed, an awesome match! Steen will need to make the most of this title win though as he’s not allowed to challenge for any other titles! Steen will no doubt treat the Xcite Championship as he would the world title!”
Ranallo: ”Speaking of the world title, I understand that our brand new backstage reporter Adnan Virk is standing by with the PWU World Champion, Aleister!”
We go backstage where Adnan Virk thanks PWU for giving him the opportunity for this job. Virk asks Aleister if the attack from his challenger CM Punk on Warfare a few nights ago has taken it’s toll on him and how he feels about tonight’s match. Aleister glares at Virk before responding. “Last week, Punk made a very costly mistake by trying to take out The Anarchy. Now I don’t know who attacked Kross and Scherr but one thing I do know is that tonight, me and you go to war. Everybody is talking about the Battleground Match, but what they don’t realise is, that after my match with you Punk, the ring will look like a Battleground and you will have fallen before me. You made the mistake of wanting my attention……well unfortunately for you…..you have it. I’ll see you out there Punk and you better hope The Anarchy don’t find you before…..” Virk looks a little shaken as Aleister leaves the interview.
Ranallo: ”The champion with a warning to CM Punk, what a title match that is going to be later tonight!”
Up next we get a video package showing the events leading up to the Women’s Championship Match including BB Crawford successfully defending against Rhea Ripley, the debut of the masked woman as well as the reveal being Mickie James, and the sneak attacks on BB from Mickie James.

Ripley tries to suplex Mickie to the outside from the apron but Mickie hits a few punches before grabbing Ripley in a front face lock. She then jumps and swings over the top rope and plants Ripley head first on the ring apron with a tornado DDT!! Both ladies fall from the apron to the outside as the crowd applaud. BB gets to her feet and sees both her opponents on the outside of the ring. BB comes off the ropes and executes a hand spring moonsault to the outside of the ring on top of both her opponents! Beautifully done! All three ladies down on the outside of the ring for a short period of time. BB gets to her feet first and climbs on to the ring apron.

Ripley sits at ringside with her hands on her head as Mickie James celebrates with her new title! BB looks distraught as Mickie celebrates!
Ranallo: ”Mickie saw an opportunity and took it!! Like her or not, you have to give Mickie James credit for this huge title win!”
McGuinness: ”Congratulations Mickie James! She took the opportunity that was presented to her and we have a new Women’s Champion!!!”
Ranallo: ”That’s two new champions in the opening two matches, is this an omen for the World Title match later tonight!?”
We go backstage to Kayla who is standing by with the NWA World Champion, Nick Aldis. Nick is extremely happy as his wife has just won the Women’s Championship. Aldis doesn’t even let Kayla speak “See Kayla!!! That’s a true champion right there!! I’m so proud of her! Me and Mickie are the new power couple here in PWU! Tonight, Mickie and myself will be leaving here as champions!! Mickie just destroyed her competition and later tonight, I’m gonna destroy mine…..Moxley you’re history….”
Bobby Lashley’s music hits in the arena and we are ready for our next match!
Matt Riddle comes out to a huge ovation and ‘Bro’ chants echo throughout the arena, the fans really behind Matt Riddle here.

McGuinness: ”So close but not close enough for Matt Riddle tonight! A great effort by Riddle tonight but Bobby Lashley displaying his dominance here tonight with a huge win!”
We go to a video package for the International Championship match between Andrade challenging the champion Claudio Castagnoli. We see brief highlights of Castagnoli’s unbeaten run as champion until Andrade debuted in the open challenge. We then see the closing moments of Castagnoli/Andrade with Pac getting involved causing a DQ. We then cut to Andrade injuring Castagnoli and trash talking him for several weeks. The video ends with Castagnoli returning at last week’s Warfare and finally getting his hands on Andrade setting up this match.
We go backstage where our new backstage interviewer Adnan Virk is standing by with the challenger for the PWU International Championship ‘El Idolo’ Andrade. Virk asks Andrade about how he rates his chances in tonight’s match. Andrade chuckles “Tonight, I go someway to fulfilling my destiny and being on top of the mountain in this company by becoming the International Champion. I’m gonna make the most of my opportunity and take the title away from that fraud Claudio Castagnoli. Claudio is a coward who hid behind an injury so he didn’t have to face me, then this past week on Warfare he sucker punched me! Tonight you will have an International Champion you can be proud of…..” Andrade leaves the interview as we get set for our International Championship match!
These two start the match with a lock up, Claudio going behind Andrade and taking him down with a waist lock take down transitioned into a headlock. Andrade uses his body to his advantage and leans back getting Claudio in a pinning predicament but Castagnoli sits back up and keeps the headlock synched in. Andrade gets to his feet and shoves Claudio off the ropes, Andrade leapfrogs him coming back and Castagnoli follows through with a spinning elbow taking down the challenger! Claudio takes down Andrade with two big clotheslines before whipping him into the turnbuckle and connecting with a charging European uppercut! Andrade is dazed and Castagnoli delivers a snap suplex resulting in a near fall! Castagnoli continues his assault taking Andrade to the corner. Claudio climbs up and goes for the 10 punch but Andrade counters into an atomic drop followed by a dropkick which sends Castagnoli to the outside! Andrade senses an opportunity so he runs off the ropes and delivers a triangle corkscrew plancha onto to Castagnoli on the outside! Andrade makes it to his feet first and sets Castagnoli up for a powerbomb. Andrade lifts Claudio in position but slams him into the ring post with the powerbomb! Castagnoli writhes in pain as Andrade talks trash and poses for the crowd. Andrade rolls Castagnoli back into the ring and covers, 1……….2……..no! Castagnoli with the shoulder up! Andrade is a little frustrated but continues the beating on Castagnoli hitting him with mounted right hands to the head. Andrade picks Castagnoli up and whips him into the turnbuckle. Andrade traps the knee that was injured and wraps it in the ropes before kicking away at it, trying to re-injure the leg of Castagnoli! Andrade rolls to the outside and trips Castagnoli and pulls him into the ringpost! With Castagnoli’s legs dangling either side of the ring post, Andrade in shades of Bret Hart locks in a sharpshooter while hanging upside down tearing away at Castagnoli’s leg! The referee gives Andrade a 5 count and Andrade releases the hold. Castagnoli crawls away from the corner holding his knee. Andrade zeroes in on the knee and stomps away on the injured body part. Andrade goes for a figure four leg lock but Castagnoli counters and musters enough strength to kick Andrade through the middle ropes to the outside! Castagnoli takes the brief pause and uses the ropes to get back to his feet. Andrade rolls back into the ring and makes a beeline for the knee of Castagnoli but Claudio hits two stiff European uppercuts to the jaw! This rocks Andrade and Claudio takes him down by his legs and the crowd are in anticipation for the swing but instead Castagnoli executes a slingshot into the corner resulting in Andrade’s head hitting the ring post! Claudio rolls him over in a schoolboy pin, 1…….2…….no! Andrade kicks out! Castagnoli gingerly makes it to his feet and rams Andrade’s head into the turnbuckle before setting him on the top rope. Castagnoli climbs to the second rope and looks for a top rope suplex but Andrade sweeps the injured leg resulting in Castagnoli landing in a tree of woe position with Andrade still perched on the top rope. Castagnoli tries to pull himself out of it via the top rope but Andrade jumps and hits a devastating double foot stomp onto Castagnoli driving him into the mat! Andrade covers, 1………..2……….no!!! Castagnoli rolls the shoulder up at the very last moment! Andrade lifts Claudio to his feet and goes to lock in for La Sombra DDT but Claudio reverses it and hits a falling gutwrench powerbomb! Castagnoli crawls over to cover but again only gets a two count! Castagnoli again gingerly makes it to his feet and goes for a sharpshooter but his leg gives way as he’s trying to lock it in! Andrade gets to his feet and sneaks behind Claudio before pushing him into the turnbuckle. Andrade quickens the pace and heads to the top turnbuckle behind Castagnoli. Andrade gets Claudio set up for a swinging reverse top rope DDT and executes it beautifully! Claudio lands hard on the back of his head but Andrade doesn’t take the opportunity to cover, he instead goes to the top rope. Andrade looks to land a top rope moonsault but Castagnoli moves out the way at the last moment causing Andrade to land hard on his front! Both men now down as Castagnoli tries to use the ropes to get to his feet and Andrade also slowly gets to his feet. The two men come together and forearms are exchanged between them, Castagnoli wins the battle of the forearms and Castagnoli hits numerous European uppercuts before setting Andrade up for the Neutraliser! Andrade blocks it and follows through with a roll up, 1………….2…………noo!!! Castagnoli shifts his weight and gets Andrade in a pinning predicament with both legs hooked, 1…………….2……………3!!!! It looks as though Andrade got the shoulder up right at the last second but the ref continued his count!
Castagnoli rolls out of the ring and grabs his title belt as Andrade is going crazy in the ring!
Ranallo: ”Well this is controversial….it looks like Andrade lifted his shoulder up just in time but the ref continued his count and Claudio Castagnoli has retained his International Title!”
McGuinness: ”Andrade may have just been robbed here tonight! One thing is for sure, this issue between these two isn’t over yet!”
Up next we see a summery promo with a beach scene promoting the next PWU pay-per-view on Sunday 22nd August, Blood In The Sand live from Daytona Beach, Florida!
Ranallo: ”I can’t wait for Blood in the Sand! I’ll be topping up my sun tan for that one Nigel! Live from Daytona Beach!”
McGuinness: ”What a night that will be, PWU action on a hot summer’s night in August, doesn’t get any better than that!”
Ranallo: ”Well coming up next, it’s gonna be far from a day at the beach for either of these guys……this one is personal and it’s for the NWA World Championship! Nick Aldis defending his gold against Jon Moxley!”
We go to a video package showing the events leading up to this match including Moxley interrupting Aldis’ PWU debut, Aldis challenging Moxley to show up on NWA Power, Moxley’s appearance on NWA Power assaulting Aldis, Aldis talking trash about Moxley and the contract signing which resulted in Aldis being put through a table.
Moxley gets a monstrous ovation from the Chicago crowd before this one. ‘Moxley’ chants break out immediately at the bell. Aldis tries to blindside Moxley but Moxley blocks the punch and Moxley hits Aldis with numerous rights and lefts to start the match! Moxley runs off the ropes and floors Aldis with a huge clothesline! Aldis rolls out of the ring but gets no rest bite as Moxley delivers a plancha through the middle ropes to Aldis which sends him careering into the steel barricade! Moxley like a house on fire here! Moxley hops over the barricade and sets Aldis up for a suplex! Moxley hits a suplex over the barricade to Aldis, Aldis hitting the concrete hard! Moxley backs away and waits for Aldis to get back to his feet before clotheslining Aldis back over the railing towards the ringside area! Moxley follows Aldis and bounces his head off the ring apron before rolling him back into the ring. Moxley drags Aldis in the section between the two rings that are set up. The rings are connected by a steel bracket and Moxley looks as though he’s going for the Paradigm Shift on the steel! Just as Moxley sets it up, Aldis counters with a back body drop! Moxley’s back hitting the steel! Aldis takes a few seconds to catch his breath before executing a knee drop to Moxley who is still in between the two rings. Aldis lifts Moxley up and clotheslines him back in to the original ring. Aldis lifts Moxley in a suplex position and executes it nicely. Aldis tries to get an early win but Moxley easily kicks out. Aldis hits several elbow drops to Moxley before taunting the crowd. Aldis continues his assault and gets Moxley in a grounded chin lock. Aldis synches it in as the crowd try to get behind Moxley and eventually Moxley feeds off the energy and makes it to his feet. Moxley counters the hold with a side suplex sending Aldis crashing to the mat. Both men get back to their feet and Moxley kicks away at Aldis and whips him into the turnbuckle. Moxley follows up with a corner clothesline and then a bulldog driving Aldis face first into the mat! Moxley gets to his feet quickly and lands an elbow drop, quick cover, 1……2…..no! Aldis gets the shoulder up. Moxley lifts Aldis to his feet and whips Aldis into the right corner nearest the second ring. Moxley pummels Aldis in the corner and sets him up on the top rope. Moxley sets Aldis up for a top rope suplex but releases his grip. Moxley looks at the area in between the two rings held together by the steel bracket and changes his footing and sets Aldis up for the suplex again. Moxley lifts Aldis and delivers a top rope suplex on to the steel bracket between the two rings!!

Aldis takes control of the match and locks Moxley in a camel clutch in the middle of the ring. The fans get behind Moxley again and after a few minutes in the camel clutch, Moxley lifts Aldis off the mat and backs him into the turnbuckle. Moxley charges at Aldis but Aldis gets his feet up in the face of Moxley before climbing to the second turnbuckle and hitting a nice double axe handle which finds the mark! Aldis talks trash to Moxley while slapping him in the face while Moxley is laying on his back. Aldis lifts Moxley to his feet and plants him with a nice sidewalk slam. Aldis tells the crowd ‘that’s it!’ as Aldis makes his way to the top turnbuckle and jumps for his flying elbow drop but Moxley moves out of the way at the last moment! Aldis lands hard and favours his elbow! Both men down, Moxley tries to make it to his feet first, Aldis also gets to his feet at the same time. Moxley goes straight for the Paradigm Shift but Aldis wriggles away and goes for a clothesline but Moxley ducks and goes behind Aldis and executes a release german suplex followed by a running knee strike to the face of Aldis! Moxley covers, 1………..2………..no!! Aldis barely gets his shoulder up! Moxley waits for Aldis to get to his knees and again goes for a running knee but Aldis catches the leg and drops Moxley before locking in the Cloverleaf!! Aldis with a bloody mouth putting all the pressure he can on the lower back of Moxley with this Cloverleaf! The fans rally to keep Moxley in the match and after a couple of minutes, Moxley finally reaches the ropes! Aldis looks frustrated and plants kicks to the chest of Moxley near the ropes before picking him up and going for the Michinoku Driver but Moxley counters and climbs down behind Aldis, spins Aldis around and nails him with the Paradigm Shift!! Moxley takes a couple extra seconds to cover in which time we see Mickie James run down the ramp! Moxley covers Aldis, 1……………..2…………….no!!! Mickie James places Aldis’ foot on the bottom rope which stops the referee’s count! The crowd boo as Moxley focuses his attention on Mickie James! Moxley shouts at Mickie through the ropes but meanwhile Aldis gets to his feet and pulls out brass knuckles from his tights! Aldis puts them on his hand and as Moxley goes back to Aldis, Aldis jams them into the jaw of Moxley with a hard right hand! Aldis picks Moxley up and hits the Michinoku driver on a defenceless Moxley and hooks the leg! 1………….2………..3!!! Nick Aldis retains!
Mickie James jumps into the ring and helps her husband who is bleeding from the mouth after Moxley’s knee strike earlier. Aldis rolls out of the ring as Mickie grabs the NWA Championship and helps her husband down the ramp. Aldis holds up his title as Moxley comes to terms with what just happened!
Ranallo: ”Jon Moxley was screwed by Aldis and Mickie James! Moxley had the title won!”
McGuinness: ”It’s genius on the part of Nick Aldis, is it underhanded? Yes, but you have to admire the fact that he will go to any lengths to retain his NWA Championship and has done so tonight at the expense of Jon Moxley!”
We see a video package for the next episode of Warfare which informs us that the main event will be a Fatal Five Way to determine who faces the champion (whoever that may be) at Blood In The Sand!
Ranallo: ”Wow! A Fatal Five Way number one contender’s match on Thursday’s show!? That will be awesome….we will have more details regarding that match in the coming days….”
Pacs music suddenly hits and we are ready for our next match!
AJ Styles sporting a new look tonight wearing a denim bikers jacket with ‘The Anarchy’ logo on the back of it. As AJ hands the jacket to the ring attendant, Pac sees an opening and clobbers AJ from behind!! The bell sounds and Pac straight away hammering away on AJ putting the boots to AJ in the corner. Pac chokes AJ with his boot against the bottom turnbuckle as the fans boo. Pac drags AJ to his feet by his hair and bounces his head off the top turnbuckle with authority! Pac hits AJ with a hard kick to the chest which knocks AJ down and goes for a cover but only a two count. Pac shouts at AJ “He should of picked me AJ!” as he plants another kick to the ribs of AJ. Pac drags AJ to his feet again and whips him into the turnbuckle. He charges at AJ with a forearm but AJ gets his feet into Pac’s face! AJ then charges at Pac and hits a series of flying forearms repeatedly knocking him down then follows up with an armdrag and locks in an arm lock. Pac gets to his feet with the hold applied and sends AJ into the ropes, Pac goes for a back body drop but AJ leapfrogs and when Pac turns around, catches him with the Pele kick! Pac staggers once he is back on his feet and AJ clotheslines him over the top rope to the outside!

Styles now seated on top of Pac hits numerous right hands and the crowd are loving it! AJ backs away down the ramp and waits for Pac to get to his feet again before running a long way back to the ring and going for a jumping forearm but Pac moves out of the way and AJ finds nothing but ring apron! Pac laughs and picks AJ up before setting AJ up for a powerbomb! Pac gets AJ in position and drives AJ back first right into the ring apron!! Pac rolls back into the ring as AJ is out of it on the outside. The referee begins his count and gets all the way up to 8 before AJ barely rolls back into the ring! Pac meets him with numerous stomps and a few kicks to the face. Pac lifts AJ back up and connects with a hard snap suplex. Pac goes for a cover but only a near fall. ‘AJ’ chants echo throughout the arena as Pac begins to show some dominance in this match. Pac gets AJ to his feet again and slams AJ back down to the mat.

Cole smirks before telling Aldis “Y’know……you really need to be careful what you say around here……” Cole and Baker continue to walk past while Aldis stares at Cole until him and Baker are out of shot. Mickie tells Nick “Don’t worry about them honey…..tonight is our night. C’mon let’s get out of here….” Mickie grins at Nick before they leave arm in arm.
Ranallo: ”An interesting interaction there between Adam Cole and Nick Aldis but Cole can’t be worrying about them right now as up next is the match we’ve all been waiting for. It’s time for the Battleground Match!”
McGuinness: ”It is indeed, this feud has been going on for months between these men and tonight it finally comes to a head inside this incredible set up. This really is going to be a war and I can’t wait!!”
Ranallo: ”You’re right Nigel and for those of you that are new to this kind of match, let’s go over the rules….
- There are two rings set up next to each other and they will be surrounded by a steel cage structure.
- At the start of the match, one member of each time will start.
- Once 2 minutes are up, a member from the OG Bullet Club will enter the match giving that team a temporary 2 on 1 advantage.
- Every 2 minutes after this a member of each team will enter the match alternately until both teams have all their members in the match.
- Once this occurs, the match will officially get under way and the bell will sound.
- The 8 men will compete inside the rings under no DQ rules and the match will be won by either the first pinfall or a member of one of the teams surrender.
Remember, the winners of this match will be officially known as The Bullet Club in PWU. Let’s show you what has led up to this war!”
