As the last man active into the match, it likely made him the freshest out there. Yes, he occasionally does need the extra time to groom properly. Some may like it, some don't, but you can't argue with priorities after all. Especially if it meant besting opponents in the ring in both look and sheer skill. Turning over to his side with a quick sprawl to all fours, Ryuu pushed himself to a stand and shook clenched fists, gesturing to the crowd! Styles and Blackjack seemed to be occupied, so he turned to the odd man out who had been dazed by a kick just moments before.
Well here's to you Mr. Robinson. After he fired the right hook, Ryuu moved up behind him, half-turning and looking to wrap his his underneath Brody's chin. With some success, Sakamoto would look to just drop onto his back on the canvas to plant him with the textbook Neckbreaker.

The action in the ring was really starting to heat up, bodies were starting to fly everywhere. Luck seemed to be on Blackjack's side still, as Andrew was knocked off of his legs. Now finding himself with a moment to catch his breath, Blackjack rolled out of the ring stumbling into the guardrail where he leaned, while he leanedplaned his next move.

Alright. Payback managed. Brody pulled back his arm and shook out his hand as Andrew rolled out the ring. He felt no need to go after him; after all, it was kind of Brody's fault that he got kicked in the head. Instead, he tried to turn his sights back to Blackjack, only to find the droog rolling out of the ring. In the moment it took him to remember there was one more guy in the ring, Ryuu's arm was around his neck and he was falling backwards. Brody's neck and head bounced off of Ryuu's shoulder and he rolled onto his side as soon as his head was free, both hands firmly over the impact point and multiple groans of pain exiting his mouth.

There was a small ruckus underneath the ring as Andrew came out on the opposite side of Blackjack, now rested and ready to fight and what was that on his two hands?
He rose up after putting down the two light tubes down on the floor as he then picked them up again and sneaked inside of the ring, he was gritting his teeth as he placed one tube down on the mat and he was now aiming a swing towards Ryuu Sakamoto's head.
This was, of course to repay Brody's previous favor, if the hit connected, Andrew would say a remark to the other: ''Debt Settled.''
And seeing that the light tube would be broken, Andrew would have his hands free to help Brody up because, d'oh, you do need someone to fight with you, maybe erase the other two then make it into a culminating finale between the two, many ideas could just come from this gesture too, probabilities, probabilities...

Scoring with the offensive maneuver on Brody, Ryuu returned to his feet with plans further isolate the man to a corner of the ring and work him over. But in a match like this where divide and conquer would ideally be the best game plan to go with, it was still important to have eyes on the back of your head, or you'd likely end up with something like a light tube there instead. Ironically, that was exactly the case in this situation as splinters of the fluorescent device flew everywhere on contact, shattering against the back of his skull! Sakamoto immediately collapsed to the canvas, eyes shut tight with a grimace racked upon his features. Clutching the back of his head, he rolled aside and kicked his heels against the canvas, seething from the sting of the blow.
In other words, it hurt. A lot.

Blackjack was in a prime position at this point. Here he was, recovered from the blows he'd taken, catching a breather outside the ring; and there was Brody, having just eaten a neckbreaker. On top of that, Andrew was now occupied with Ryuu, having just given the crowd a bit of fanfare with a glass tube. Blackjack knew when to seize on an opportunity provided by the Lady. He slipped around the corner of the ring and slid in just enough to grab Brody's legs. Slipping back out of the ring, Blackjack would try to pull Brody towards the apron, but before he pulled him all the way out, Blackjack would run Brody's knee into the ringpost!

Brody shocked to see Andrew offering a hand after hitting Ryuu with the light tube, hesitantly reached out for his opponents hand. His apprehension proved to be his undoing, as he was dragged away by Blackjack before he could make contact. Thinking he was getting pulled to the outside, Brody covered the back of his head for impact with the floor instead of resisting, which lead to his knee getting smashed against the steel post. His entire body jerked up from the mat upon collision, before falling to the side while he pulled his knee up to try and contain the pain, leaving his other leg still hanging under the bottom rope.

Andrew looked from one rope to another, was he really going to help Brody?
Brody seemed to need Andrew's help from Blackjack, Andrew just saved Brody from Ryuu Sakamoto's offensive and now he was going to help Brody against Blackjack, hmn, really? Decisions, decisions...
Oh hell yeah, he ran from one side to another before taking to the ropes, aiming to do a Over The Rope Flip on top of Blackjack out of the blue, unexpected maybe or maybe not, he was wanting to ally himself with Brody even if the crowd does not like Andrew that much, you do what you gotta do.

While Andrew was contemplating fate, and existence, and camaraderie, Blackjack was grabbing Brody's other knee, He'd grip the other leg and throw all his weight into slamming the joint into the unforgiving steel ring post. He'd step back to survey the carnage he wrought, only to have a sudden weight come crashing into him. Blackjack was slammed into the barricade with Andrew's body crashing on top of him. The combined weight of both men buckled the flimsy barricades, and both men went sprawling into the immediate audience. The crowd exploded at the impact, cheers rising up around the outdoor setting.

This would be one of the moments to say: Get Ready to Fly in Air-Styles but that would be so corny and it would suck a lot for this exciting and hype catching moment, surely one going for the Highlight Reel.
Andrew was now on the ground, barricades underneath him and his opponent, audience surrounding both of them...voices just cheering for once because Andrew did quite a stunt to save their oh-so-mighty-hero Brody.
Looking to his surroundings better while trying to find his opponent, Blackjack was right there by his side and something was telling him to start punching Blackjack so bad and he aimed the right punch towards Blackjack's head while both wrestlers are grounded but by doing this, maybe one of them can get enough momentum to raise up and get a good offensive going.

Taking deep breaths in and out as the pain was finally beginning to subside a bit, Ryuu pushed over onto all fours and peered up to see Brody down, with Blackjack and Styles beginning to trade fisticuffs to gain some momentum after that reset in the action. An opportunity was an opportunity. Getting into this tournament was an opportunity. Getting to this stage of the tournament was an opportunity. And within this opportunity was yet another opportunity! Beads of crimson mixed with the perspiration and baby oil along lacerated parts of his neck where the light tube exploded against.
Finally it seemed like Ryuu had truly arrived.
Rolling to the side to keep a low profile for now, he emerged onto the apron and used the ropes to pull himself to a stand. Grabbing onto the top turnbuckle, he scaled the corner rung by rung and half turned at the top, securing his perch. Whether or not Styles and Blackjack were at a full stand at this point, Ryuu took a quick glance over his shoulder and secured his balance before arising completely. Taking a deep breath, he kicked both feet simultaneously down against his perch, creating enough explosive energy to vault backward into the air! The crowd's 'ohhhhhHHHHHH' crescendo'd as he threw caution and his body into the wind, looking to score with an all-or-nothing Moonsault onto Styles and Blackjack on the outside!

Another knee smash, another grimace, another few grunts of pain. Thing's hadn't been going well thus-far in the match for Brody Robinson. It took a moment for the pain in his legs to subside to the point where he could think straight, and he pushed himself up to a sitting position, legs still hanging out of the ring, in time to see Andrew and Blackjack crash through the barricade. He made a mental note to treat Andrew to drinks after the match as thanks for the help. And as soon as he completed that though, he heard Ryuu in motion behind him and turned to see the SSStylist taking flight. His face displayed a look of childlike awe as he watched, taking in the sight while he took a quick breather.

The scene outside the ring was chaotic at best. Fans scrambled away after pulling themselves out from under wrestlers, and barricade. The chairs lay scattered about and the barricade was demolished. A few choice fans were reaching in trying to get hands on wrestlers now that they were close enough. Blackjack was still sorting out what had happened when something struck him in the face, snapping the world back into sharp focus; then something heavy came crashing down partially on top of him. Ryuu's dive had reached it's mark, or at least part of it. Blackjack would have no idea if Andrew would be hit as well, even though he was in the process of punching Blackjack in the first place.

Andrew was trying to get at Blackjack and unleash some of his wrath but that interrupted by something heavy which crashed on both Blackjack and his person.
The True Crimson was a bit confused at the moment until he noticed that it was the first person he struck to save Brody, Ryuu Sakamoto has taken flight with that great Moonsault.
Have to put the merit where it's due, seems the ex-Crimson Champion is not the only one who's totally crazy about flying and doing about everything to win, now Andrew tried to get back his bearing in place and tried to regain his focus on his surroundings right now yet Andrew wondered about Brody, if he was alright and what not.

Fanfare rained from the crowd in approval of the maneuver as the three men were wiped out on the outside. Brody was now the only man left standing at this point as Ryuu was still recovering his wits from the crash outside .. using anyone and anything around him to try to claw back to a stand. And when he did, he still faltered to all fours, trying to shake his head from the daze sustained from the light tube hitting him in the head not too long ago and the Moonsault that definitely had negative effects on him as well.
