After the National Anthem and Fusion Entrance Video, Charlie B got the crowd going, welcoming them to the new venue and telling them about the many new ventures for FUSION, including the Colorado Pro-Am Bodybuilding show on June 1st and 2nd and the KBPI Car Show on June 9th. Charlie then announced that it was his pleasure to bring out the Fusion pro champion Duff Doyle. Duff came out and told that crowd that Duff militia was growing everyday and that the Orange was taking over FUSION. He also told the crowd that after the interference from Jack Mecidol and Jeff Mcallister last month at Avenged, he got Victoria Starr to lift the suspension on “Mr. Intensity” and that tonight’s main event will be a tag match with those two facing off against Duff and “Sensational” Paul Diamond. Suddenly, music hit and Jeff and Jack came down the aisle. Jack told Duff not to expect Paul Diamond tonight, as he’d been taken care of. Jack and Jeff advanced to the ring, ready to take the Georgia native down, but just in the nick of time Paul Diamond came flying down the aisle in his street clothes and cleaned house. Mecidol and Mcallister beat a hasty retreat as Duff and Diamond posed for the crowd. After the ring cleared, Charlie B started the action
1st Match
“Straight Laced” Tommy Bouchet vs. Hannibal
Looking for vengeance after last month’s questionable loss, Hannibal came out in full force, ready to bring it to Bouchet. Bouchet took control early and relentlessly beat Hannibal for a large portion of the match. Hannibal had a few tricks of his own, however and soon surprised Bouchet with an onslaught of offense. Suddenly, Hannibal set Bouchet up in the corner and delivered a devastating Tornado DDT from the second rope. Hannibal covered Bouchet and hooked the leg for the three count.
Winner: Hannibal
2nd Match
Women’s Match
Danae Mitchell vs. “The Main Event” Reggie
The ladies decided to break with technicality and started the match by trading hard right hands in the middle of the ring. Reggie fought hard, but Danae managed to get the upper hand and left the brawling behind for actual wrestling. She locked Reggie in a modified surfboard and held tight hoping for a submission. Reggie wasn’t about to give up yet, however, as she elbowed Danae twice in the face to break the hold, bloodying her nose in the process. Reggie went for a roll up, but Danae reversed into one of her own, which was reversed again, and then once again, until Reggie hit a big clothesline, sending Danae down hard. Reggie tried end the match early, going to the top, but Danae fought back, dropping Reggie from the top and following that up with a handstand Hurricanrana from the top (a move she calls the BLAST!) Danae went for the cover, but only got a 2 count. Reggie fought back, hitting a hard DDT and taking control of the match. Reggie punished Danae with the Curb Stomp (pulling her back and slamming her face first into the canvas) and went for a submission of her own with a stump puller. Danae fought out of the move with two hard kicks to the face. Reggie didn’t let the kicks break her momentum and hit a hard backbreaker for 2. As Danae was getting up, Reggie went for a lungblower. Danae was ready, however, and she held on to the rope, causing Reggie to crash to the mat. Danae went to the second rope and hit a big moonsault, gaining her first Fusion victory.
Winner: Danae Mitchell
3rd Match
Hollywood Challenge
Hollywood JDT came down and reminded the crowd about the Hollywood Open challenge, an open challenge to anyone in the entire wrestling world. JDT was in for quite a surprise as Bison Smith emerged from the back and accepted the challenge. JDT left the ring and took a moment to compose himself. He entered the ring and attempted to take the big man down, but Bison had a huge power advantage and easily threw aside JDT’s attacks. Bison took control and beat on JDT viciously, hitting a big Backcracker. JDT attempted to fight back, and hit a succession of high impact moves on Bison. JDT went for a body slam but couldn’t hold the weight of his opponent, sending Bison crashing down on top of him. Bison continued his relentless attack and it seemed that Hollywood may have met his match when he began to fight back. JDT hit Bison with a dropkick to the knee, sending him to the mat. Bison sent JDT to the corner and tried to follow with a big shoulder tackle, but JDT moved, and Bison simply ran into the post. JDT took the opportunity to bring all he had and nailed Bison with a springboard dropkick and a big elbow. JDT went for another bodyslam, and this time succeeded, driving Bison to the mat. He then hit a big leg drop from the top and went for the cover. The ref almost hit 3, but Bison managed to kick out just before. JDT sent Bison into the corner and went for a monkey flip, but Bison countered and hit the Bisontennial. JDT managed to kick out after 2, but Bison maintained control. He hit a big clothesline, followed by a powerbomb and another Bisontennial, which proved too much for Hollywood.
Winner: Bison Smith
After the match, Bison took the mic and issued an open challenge of his own, taking over from JDT

Billy went for a hip toss on Jason, but Stoney was right there. Jason rolled through and turned the hip toss into a sunset flip on the magnificent one for 2. Back up, Jason set Billy V for a DDT. Stoney recovered as well, however, and hit a reverse DDT on Jason at the same time, leading to double DDT. The action continued fast and furious after that, with Billy hitting hard chops on Jason in the corner. Jason fought back, however, and hit a pair of splashes (one of each opponent) Jason seemed in control, but Billy came out of nowhere with a big wheel kick, sending him down. Stoney ran in and hit his trademark rollup for 2. Jason came back and sent Stoney into the corner, but Stone D was ready and tried to go up and over. Jason caught him in midair and threw him to the outside, just in time for Billy to attack Jason from behind. Billy stomped Jason for several moments in the corner before going up for a top rope move on his two opponents. However, Jason and Stoney both moved and Billy V hit the mat hard. All three men continued to fight, with Billy and Stoney on the outside with Jason in the ring. Jason hit the ropes and hit an over the top cross body on both men. All three men were down, but Jason and Stoney got up first and traded punches outside. Jason took control, throwing Stone D into the ring post outside. As Jason was doing this, Billy V was back up in the ring and hit an over the top Hurricanrana to the outside on him. Back in the ring, Stoney and Billy teamed up for a minute to hit Jason with a double flapjack. Stoney went for his roll up again, but Billy reversed it into a Shock Bottom. Billy went to the top to end the whole thing, but Jason was up as well, and ran up to the second rope and hit Billy with a big German Suplex from the second rope. Stoney went to the top rope as Jason set Billy up for the Beholder, but Billy reversed it and sent Jason into the ropes, causing Stoney to rack himself on the turnbuckle and dropping Jason to the mat. Billy then threw Stoney off the ropes on top of Jason and followed that up with a big frog splash for the win
Winner: “The One, the Only” Billy V

Dustin and Yaden came down ready to settle their rivalry, which stood at one win apiece. They started with a test of strength, which went back and forth until Yaden gained the upper hand. Yaden put Dustin into a hammerlock and continued to work on his arms with a variety of technical moves. Yaden locked Dustin into a reverse armbar and hit him with several hard kicks to the face.

Main Event
“Your Idol” Jack Mecidol and “Mr. Intensity” Jeff Mcallister
vs. “Sensational” Paul Diamond and FUSION PRO CHAMIPON Duff Doyle
Duff and Diamond started the match fast, rushing the ring and sending Jeff and Jack to the outside. They managed to regain control, however and teamed up on Duff Doyle. Mecidol and Mcallister continued beating on Duff, as the champion tried to fight back. Duff grabbed Mecidol, setting him up for DDT, but Mr. Intensity rushed him. Duff was ready, however, and hit a back body drop on Mcallister, followed up by the DDT on Jack. Duff got to his corner and made the tag to Diamond. Diamond came in on fire and attacked both his opponents. Diamond was in control until Jack used one of his many underhanded tactics and bit Diamond, allowing a window to tag Mcallister in. Diamond wasn’t fazed, however, and hit a big back body drop on Mcallister, followed by a hurricanrana on Jack. Diamond was in control once again until Jack grabbed him and set him up on his shoulders, allowing Mcallister to come off the top rope with a big dropkick, sending Diamond back flipping to the canvas. Jack and Jeff continued to beat on Diamond, with Duff unable to do anything to help his partner. Jeff set Diamond up for his patented up and over legdrop, but Diamond moved and made for his corner. Jack wasn’t about to let that happen, however, and ran in to break up the tag. Jeff and Jack continued to put the heat on Diamond and it got several 2 counts, but the Sensational one refused to be beaten. Jack had Diamond and attempted to drive his knee into the mat, but Diamond flipped through and hit the Pele. Diamond then made it to his corner and tagged Duff who came in and cleaned house. Duff hit a pair of splashes and followed by slamming Jack and Jeff together head first. Duff locked the trailer hitch on Jeff and it seemed as if Mr. Intensity would have to submit when Jack came in to break up the hold. Jack had everything where he wanted it, hitting Duff with an ego crush when suddenly he was distracted by an attractive woman in the audience who was flirting with him. As he turned his attention away from the ring to flirt back, Diamond recovered and hit a big superkick. Duff then hit the airplane, which Diamond followed up with a Shooting Star Press for the win.
Winners: Duff Doyle and “Sensational” Paul Diamond
After the match, Diamond grabbed the mic and told Duff that he wanted a rematch for the title. Duff agreed and said it would make a great main event for June’s Nexus
