04:33AM GMT: Both men giving it everything they’ve got here. A great mix of power and athleticism.

03:52AM GMT: The Rascalz def. Zayne, Carter & Christian in a 6-man tag team match. Enthralling match with a lot of high flying moves and spots that you’d expect from these guys. Alex Zayne certainly caught my eye from this one.
03:47AM GMT: Plenty of superkicks, cartwheels and more superkicks, still out on the football field. All the fans social distanced, even away from the ring. Again, Warrior have got their set-up completely spot on here tonight.

03:16AM GMT: Plenty of comedy spots here as expected. I missed the rules. Let’s have some fun!
03:06AM GMT: Warhorse vs. Dan The Dad vs. Beast Man vs. Matt Knicks vs. Nacho Clown vs. Cypher vs. Gobaldi vs. The Cornbelt Cowboy vs. Elayna Black vs. Davey Bang
03:04AM GMT: IT’S TIME FOR THE SPARTAN STADIUM STAMPEDE SCRAMBLE!

02:34AM GMT: Archer makes his entrance!
02:29AM GMT: Sam Adonis vs. AEW’s Lance Archer is NEXT!
02:28AM GMT: Isaias Velazquez def. Tre Lamar via pinfall. ‘The Chicago Ace’ picks up the win, in a great match with a number of pinfall attempts and back and forth action. Both men shake hands after the match.
02:25AM GMT: Tre Lamar, the high-flyer, drops an elbow from the top rope, but the experience of Isaias he manages to get to the ropes to break the pinfall that followed.
02:22AM GMT: This visual is fantastic now with the floodlights beaming down on the ring and football field. All credit to Warrior for putting on this event tonight.

02:14AM GMT: With that win, that puts Kylie Rae in pole position to face Tessa Blanchard for the Warrior Women’s Title!
