AXis vs. Steven Seagal AXis received a bye through Round 1, meaning Steven Seagal was its first opponent in the second round. AXis won this fight by KO and advanced in the tournament. |
AXis vs. The Edge Next up for AXis was Marc DeVidts and The Edge. This fight started with Edge box rushing AXis, which was already up to full speed. One of AXis's axe heads glanced off of Edge's wedge, and broke off destabilizing it, and forcing the team to run it at low speed for the rest of the fight. Edge took advantage of this and slammed AXis all over the arena before shoving it into the spike strips within a minute of the match starting. At some point during all this, AXis managed to get under Edge and slammed it into the wall. However in doing so, AXis suddenly stopped working and lost by knockout as a result. |
