Match #1: Falls Count Anywhere Match – Shinsuke Nakamura def. Ricochet The following is courtesy of wwe.com:
Weeks of attacks came to a boiling point as Ricochet battled the nefarious Shinsuke Nakamura in a Falls Count Anywhere Match. The brutal showdown stretched all over the arena and incorporated numerous weapons as well as a Shooting Star Press by The One and Only off the ledge in the crowd. In the final moments, a battle on the top rope led to a wicked kick from Nakamura that sent Ricochet crashing through a table at ringside. This allowed Nakamura to hit the Kinshasa for the three-count.

New York, July 22 (Ians) American Grandmaster (Gm) Hikaru Nakamura emerged as champion in the Bullet Chess Championship 2023 championship, winning the title after shutting down Gm Magnus Carlsen’s comeback in overtime in an epic Grand Final.
Having dropped down to the Losers’ Bracket earlier in the tournament, Norway’s world champion Carlsen shifted gears to storm back into contention by making it to the event’s Grand Final, defeating Gm Daniel Naroditsky and taking his revenge on Gm Alireza Firouzja.
Then, in the set-piece final, Carlsen found himself trailing again and had to fight back against the reigning champion Nakamura’s five-point lead, tying the match and forcing overtime.
Ultimately, Nakamura came out on top but needed to use all his ability to increase the pressure on the board and the clock to win his fourth Bullet Chess Championship. It was a stunning display of speed chess from the two top stars.

With the rest of his Imperium teammates barred from ringside, Intercontinental Champion Gunther took on Matt Riddle in a non-title match. Gunther and Riddle traded submission attempts to start the match, with Gunther applying a sleeper hold followed by a triangle hold attempt by Riddle. Riddle’s early momentum was derailed by a huge chop from The Ring General, followed by a body slam onto the mat outside of the ring. As Gunther beat down Riddle, The Original Bro withstood the punishment, attempting to get the victory after a ripcord knee. Gunther did not need Ludwig Kaiser and Giovanni Vinci with him, defeating The Original Bro a huge Powerbomb.

In the 1960s, a new wave of jidaigeki flicks came into the fray that cast a dark shadow over the brave samurai heroes of old. So-called zankoku (cruel) jidaigeki offers a more cynical view of the samurai, critiquing the hierarchical society of Japan's past and presenting more realistic violence. This subgenre can, to a degree, be compared to the spaghetti western in how it blurs the lines between right and wrong, introducing more brutal anti-heroes to contrast traditional honour-bound warriors clad in white. Tadashi Imai's 1963 film “Bushido” fits nicely into this niche subgenre, as it delivers a scathing critique of its titular moral code.
