Finally gotten around to posting my next large event, 4th of July Fireworks...taking place on, well, Saturday, July 4th!

After kicking off with a special fireworks opening to commemorate the day (and help draw some extra attendance), the 4th of July special actually starts off with two Brits as veteran Dave Taylor faces off against Steve Lewington. Youth reigns supreme as Lewington wins following a Sidewinder. Surprisingly, Dave Taylor offers a handshake and it is accepted, it soon becomes apparent that due to only wanting to be a non-wrestler, this will likely be Taylor's final appearance for Future Endeavors Wrestling.
OR: 64, CR: 59, MQ: 70
Road Agent Note: Dave Taylor lost a ton of overness from this...but it's no big deal because like I said, it's probably his final appearance.

Thorn delivers an interview, stating that he plans on taking advantage of his #1 Contendership immediately, and he will face Elijah Burke for the FEW Championship tonight.
OR: 65

Two of the REAL Wrestlers were in action with Jake Swagger and Zigg Nemeth facing off against the crazy, bearded, Scottish Groundskeepers. The pure athleticism of Swagger and Nemeth were just too much for the Groundskeepers, as Nemeth puts away Robbie with a jumping Russian Leg Sweep.
OR: 72, CR: 66, MQ: 79

Harry Smith takes a break from his friendly rivalry with Colt Cabana and goes to take on the cocky Ted DiBiase Jr. instead. A decent contest but as neither man is particularly over yet, the crowd reaction dragged things down a bit. Anyway, Ted apparently sees enough ability in Smith that he can't defeat him cleanly. Roll-up with the classic hook of the tights as Ted wins. Colt Cabana runs out after and teaches Ted a lesson for robbing his friend of a victory, planting him with the Colt 45.
OR: 66, CR: 59, MQ: 73

Cliff Compton delivered an interview backstage, ripping into Chris Harris. He said he planned on taking Harris to school after he interjected himself in Cliff's business on Wednesday night. OHHH!!!
OR: 73

Get some more cruiserweight action in to entertain the crowd. Teams are drawn seemingly at random as Paul London, Super Crazy, and Sho Funaki meet up against Shannon Moore, James Maritato, and Colin Olson. Bodies flying all over the place in this one as it resembles a Lucha-style 6-man tag match. London picks up the win for his team following a 450 Splash on Colin.
OR: 66, CR: 57, MQ: 75
Road Agent Notes: Paul London and Super Crazy are both losing overness due to weak gimmicks (ugh! I got notified of this for both guys during the battle royal on Wednesday, but I completely spaced and forgot to change them)

Seemingly taking a page out of Ted DiBiase Jr.'s book, Cliff Compton decides it's just not worth trying to beat Chris Harris fairly. After an awesome match, Cliff sullies it by exposing the steel turnbuckle and driving Harris' head into it without the ref noticing. That makes him easy prey for the Cliffhanger and Compton wins. Chris Harris looks bewildered at what has just transpired.
OR: 78, CR: 68, MQ: 88

FEW champion Elijah Burke makes his entrance and before Thorn can enter, he grabs the mic and trashes his opponent like any good heel would. One has to wonder if Burke might be selling Thorn short.
OR: 75

The answer is yes. Thorn takes Burke to the absolute limit in a match that got really solid ratings yet wasn't as good as I was anticipating. I was kinda thinking they'd have similar chemistry to Compton/Harris as they are both decent brawlers. In any event, Burke is nearly pinned on several occasions but manages to kick out, only to grow frustrated when he can't put Thorn away himself. So in a classic heel champion move, he gave up, grabbed the belt, and clocked Thorn in the head with it. Thorn wins by disqualification but STILL your FEW Champion, Elijah Burke! Burke hightails it after, not wanting to wait for Thorn to recover.
OR: 77, CR: 78, MQ: 76
Road Agent Note: The FEW Title has gained in image

72% Overall Rating for 4th of July Fireworks, yet another small but nevertheless important increase in large show ratings. I'm going to hold my first PPV next month.
