The intermission was longer than normal in order to give REMIX staff time to clean up the ring. I felt my energy level drop.

Stevens reverses a chinlock.

Prophet boots his opponent in the face.

Conard makes his way from the back.

Stevens gets the pin to win the REMIX Pro Wrestling Heavyweight Championship.

This was one of the worst title changes I’ve ever since. The match was plodding and didn’t contain much content. I’m not looking forward to Steven’s first title defense.
