| Puma Johnson celebrates his win with the fans |
Bradenton, Fla - Universal Fury 15 proved to be a shocking twist of events as the finals of the UCW Universal Championship Tournament are now set for Masters of the Universe.
Miami Boyz Defends Titles at MOTV:
The show opened with the Miami Boyz (Puma Johnson, Chris Malachite and Baby Keef) talking about their reign as UCW Tag Team Championship and thanking the fans for their unwavering support on defending the championships and how they will be continue to defend the championships. Their next title defense will take place at Masters of the Universe.
Joey Ozbourne vs KJ Mack:
After the Miami Boyz finished, the opening match was a battle of the United Kingdom as the 'Birmingham Bastard' Joey Ozbourne seething over his loss in the quarterfinals and was looking for a fight. Scotland's own KJ Mack would answer the challenge after asking the UCW Universe whether the 'Last Real Holligan' should take the night off or face Ozbourne. Ozbourne would take advantage in the match majorly from the outside and while Mack attempted to mount a comeback, it would not be enough as Ozbourne would hit a low blow with the ref distracted in the corner before hitting his signature Red Right Hand for the win.
Cam Fox vs *Kai Price (UCW Intergalactic Championship):
Cam Fox, who remained defiant in returning the UCW Intergalactic Championship, and current champion Kai Price continued to feud with each other even before the bell rang in their championship match. As the match finally commenced, both Fox and Price would not stop their back and forth attacks to see who the true champion really is. Fox would eventually make a costly mistake that gave Price a chance to win, but as Price locked in the sharpshooter the match would eventually be ruled a no-contest as the 15 minute time limit came to an end and Price would retain the title.
Steve Sterling (w/ Shayne Stetson) vs *Puma Johnson (UCW Universal Championship Tournament Semifinals):
Steve Sterling looked to be the favorite to advance to the finals, while Puma Johnson was considered the underdog. The matchup started off strong for Johnson until Stetson's attempts of interference started getting in the way of the match, but Johnson would not give up on his goal and mount a comeback. As Stetson was attempting to distract Johnson again, Baby Keef and Chris Malachite would return the favor as they implemented a distraction of their own towards Steve Sterling before Johnson hit Black Lights for the win to advance to the finals.
Shayne Stetson vs Bounty Hunter vs Sean Scott vs Dagan McCarter (UCW Intergalactic Championship #1 Contender's Fatal Four Way):
All four wrestlers continuously traded moves and tags with each other to prove who was the true number one contender to go for the UCW Intergalactic Championship. As Stetson was going for the win, the Miami Boyz would once again become a distraction as Dagan McCarter (formerly known as Jayson Steele) would roll Stetson up for the win to become the number one contender and snap his seven match losing streak.
Jake Sterling vs Drago (UCW Universal Championship Tournament Semifinals):
The second match of the semifinals was deemed like 'David vs Goliath as the 'Top Dawg' Jake Sterling was set to face the 'Real' Drago. Both men fought hard in and out of the ring and looked to have each other's number. Drago would take advantage of Sterling's injury in the match mid-way, but Sterling would mount a comeback and hit his finisher only for a two-count. In the end, Drago would hit his signature Torpedo Spear and pin Sterling for the win and advance to the finals of the tournament.
**Miami Boyz (Chris Malachite and Baby Keef) vs Hot and Trending (Steve Sterling and Shayne Stetson) (UCW Tag Team Championship):
Both Malachite and Keef were celebrating Johnson's win and advancing to the finals but Stetson and Steve Sterling, who officially named themselves as 'Hot and Trending', were unhappy with the losses in their singles matches earlier and decided to confront the tag team champions about their title reign. The Miami Boyz, who are set to defend their titles at Masters of the Universe, decided to put their money where their mouths are and accepted the challenge.
Malachie and Keef would start off hot with a few quick tags over Stetson before Steve Sterling caused a distraction that would injure Malachite's arm before it backfired after Sterling started injuring Stetson's arm by mistake, which would lead to a hot tag and a rally from Keef. Hot and Trending continued to push the limit in the match and win the match as a team, but it would backfired exponentially as Stetson hit his finisher jumping corner cutter on his own partner. This would lead to Malachite hitting the Malachite Moment on Stetson before Keef landed the Air Drop to win the match and retain the titles.
