Rising Star of the Week
Haruka Kashimashi
This week’s Rising Star of the Week is Haruka Kashimashi! On Voltage, Haruka competed in a 24/7 Battle Royale preview match against Shane Gates. Haruka had a very close match with Shane, but in the end she managed to leave Voltage with a surprise victory after rolling Shane up and getting the three count! The 24/7 Battle Royale is a stacked match every year, and with a performance like this Haruka might have some great chances of winning it. Congratulations, Haruka!
Beef of the Week
Adam Lucas vs Impact
The Beef of the Week for this week was between Adam Lucas and Impact! These two have a lot of history and have had some amazing matches as well as promo back and forths. This week was no exception, as both Adam and Impact looked to pick up a win heading into Pain for Pride, where both Elitists are in major matches that could lead to them becoming World Champions, whether it’s at the show or afterwards. In the end this turned out to be another great week thanks to these two!
Show of the Week
Voltage
This week’s Show of the Week was Voltage! The show opened up with a confrontation between the Iconic Cup finalists, and after this we saw the EAW Championship competitors face each other in a brawl that ended in surprising fashion, and we saw Donovan Duke finally give us his answer about whether or not he will defend his National Elite Championship at Pain for Pride, and that answer turned out to be very exciting. With all of that as well as very great matches all across the board, Voltage turned out to be a fantastic show, helping make Pain for Pride more exciting than ever.
Match of the Week
Alex Myers vs Dr. Bethany Blue
The Match of the Week for this week was the main event of Dynasty, the match between the New Breed Champion Alex Myers and Dr. Bethany Blue, the Empress of Elite! This was a fantastic match as Alex and Dr. Blue both had a major challenge on their hands before Pain for Pride! They absolutely brought the best out of each other, which is necessary leading up to the biggest show of the year! This was a perfect way to end Dynasty leading up to Pain for Pride, as both Elitists seem to be better than ever!

Champion of the Week
TLA
The Champion of the Week for this week is TLA! This week TLA competed in the main event of Showdown against an opponent he knows very well, Limmy Monaghan! TLA and Impact chose each others opponents tonight, and while Impact lost to Adam Lucas thanks to a countout, TLA was actually able to leave Showdown with a victory! This week once again showed just how great of a Champion TLA is and how much of a challenge Impact has ahead of him at Pain for Pride, so congratulations to the Answers World Champion!
Most Valuable Elitist
Myles
The Most Valuable Elitist for this week was the EAW World Champion, Myles! Myles faced off against one of the Elitists in the Cash in the Vault ladder match on Voltage, and that Elitist turned out to be Jake Smith, who has always been such a talented member of the roster. Myles was able to defeat Jake Smith clean on Voltage, which definitely gave him a lot of momentum heading into Pain for Pride where he defends his EAW Championship in a triple threat! Myles has proven that he is at the top of his game, and dethroning him won’t be easy at all!
