Fight 1: S3 Vs Plunderbird The Plunderbird team said that Plunderbird 5 was the robot that was going to win. At the beginning of the fight, they pushed the hammer-head shark like robot around the arena into the CPZ. However, S3's vertical disc was already causing major damage to Plunderbird. Eventually, Plunderbird stopped moving. S3's disc ripped up Plunderbird's armor and disintegrating it like tin foil. Eventually the wheels fell off. Plunderbird was no more. They were flipped through the air next to the Pit and were out. S3 goes through.
Fight 2: Stinger (Seated 5th) Vs Hippobotomus The Hippobotomus robot was built out of a hippo-shaped sand box. Because of its plastic construction, the only damage they tried to cause to Stinger was to themselves. Stinger pounded Hippobotomus again and again. The Hippo was falling apart. Dead Metal then sliced through the Hippo's cover. The fight went to the judges who decided Stinger to go through. The girl on the Hippobotomus team (She used

Grand Final Summary

Fight 1: Bigger Brother Vs Hypno-Disc In the beginning, Hypno-Disc was causing major damage to Bigger Brother, tearing off armor, wrecking the flipper, etc. And then, by accident, they drove right over the edge of the Pit! Bigger Brother, who unbelieveably was still alive, pushed them in! Bigger Brother celebrated. However, their flipper was wrecked, so all they could do was spin.
Fight 2: Firestorm Vs Razer Firestorm slammed into Razer who dug his claw into Firestorm. Firestorm pushed Razer right past the edge of the Pit and into Sgt. Bash. Then they jammed Razer under the angle grinder. Refbot freed them. Firestorm pushed Razer into Bash again. Throughout all this, Razer was burying his claw into the scratched and dirty Firestorm again and again. Finally, Firestorm pushed Razer into Shunt just as time ran out. The fight was very close, but Razer won.

Robot Wars Extreme: Show 1 Summary

Tonight's Main Event was a Challenge Belt competition. Behemoth is a very tough robot to beat. In fact he should have been the World Champion instead of Razer! So the World Association of Robotics (WARS; no surprise) gave them the Robot Wars Challenge Belt. If they can hold on to the belt for 3 battles, they can take it home, other wise, they lose the belt.
Battle 1: Vengence Match House Robots: Sirhugalot and Dead Metal
This was a grudge match to decide which robot was better. Stinger had a feeling they were going to win because they were seated #5 and Tornado were only seated #12. However, Tornado now had a trick up its sleeve. Their ramming spike had been replaced by a 2,000 rpm spinning disc? Terrifying!

Tonight's Main Event was a Mayhem battle featuring 3 awesome robots: Wheely Big Cheese, Hypno-Disc and the now Razer-esque Ming III. However, the robot to look out for is definitely Hypno-Disc.

As the show starts, we see some shocking, horrifying, out of this world scenes of Hypno-Disc absolutely demolishing other robots like Robogeddon, Stealth and Predator. Can anything stop Hypno-Disc?

Tonight's main event is the Armed Forces Special. 3 very good robots from the Royal Forces compete, but first, we should start with a few other battles like a Tag-Team qualifyer.
Fight 1: Tag Team Terror: Bigger Brother and Plunderbird 5 Vs Spawn Again and Comengetorix Before the fight even started, Plunderbird slammed into the arena door, damaging it and the robot. So Bigger Brother got a substitute partner: Major Tom.
Bigger Brother and Major Tom Vs Spawn Again and Comengetorix Spawn Again immediately flipped Major Tom over. Major Tom didn't have a self-righter, so they were stuck there. Bigger Brother flipped them back over, but Major Tom never moved. They were counted out, flipped and pitted. Spawn Again and Comengetorix automatically advance.
Fight 2: Mayhem: Thermidor II Vs Behemoth Vs Stinger Thermidor flipped Stinger, then had a go at Behemoth. Suddenly, they flipped Behemoth's back end, sending the box-shaped robot sommersaulting over and over and out of the arena! Therm

Plunderbird and Sir Chromalot: 2 robots with teams who are funny and cool at the same time. Okay, so their robots aren't that good, but they do hate each other. Vengeance will be settled in the Warzone tonight!!
TAG TEAM TERROR: Sumpthing and SMIDSY vs Thermidor II and Cerberus Thermidor II was wearing a Robot Wars hat in this fight. It's amazing that his hat didn't burn up because SMIDSY and Sumpthing looked the strongest untill SMIDSY got stuck in first driver and Sumpthing got flipped onto its spikes by Thermidor II. Both robots were counted out. Thermidor II and Cerberus go through to the next round.
CHALLENGE BELT: Behemoth vs Tornado Tornado was easily the strongest and pushed and shoved Behemoth around. Behemoth fought back later on by flipping Tornado up against the arena side wall. They reversed to try and flip Tornado out of the arena, but then Matilda came in smacked into Behemoth with her flywheel. Tornado well off the wall and continued pushing Behemoth around the arena. B

The Annihalator! 6 robots go in, but only 1 robot will become the new Annihalator champion.
Fight 1: Hypno-Disc Vs Pussycat Vs Thermidor II Vs Splinter Vs Arnold A. Teeminegger Vs X-Terminator 2 All the axe robots ganged up on Hypno-Disc, including Splinter, who Hypno-Disc had destroyed in Series 4. It looked like the spin-to-winners were losing, until Splinter pushed Thermidor into the CPZ. Thermidor broke down and they were out of the Annihalator. At least we're having lobster for dinner!
Robots eliminated so far: Thermidor II
Fight 2: Once again, everyone ganged up on Hypno-Disc. The 5-minute time limit expired, but this fight wasn't over until someone was immobilized, and pretty soon someone was: X-Terminator. They wore out the batteries and broke down. Refbot counted X-Terminator out.
Robots eliminated so far: Thermidor II; X-Terminator 2
Fight 3: Hypno-Disc never got going. Pussycat pushed them down the Pit, but then Splinter pushed Pussycat down the Pit as well! Oh, well.

CHALLENGE BELT: Tornado vs Wild Thing A very close battle with both robors doing a lot of shoving and some damage to each other. It also seemed that there was more fighting in the Wild Thing roboteerng box with Isabelle and Jake Adams fighting over who was doing the weaponry controls. The battle went to the judges. The judges decided the winner on aggression and it went to Tornado and now they keep the Challenge Belt.
TAG TEAM TERROR: Diotoir and Pussycat vs Spawn Again and Comengetorix Mega Morg was in no shape to fight, so Pussycat agreed to fight with Diotoir. Pussycat's blade wasn't working as well but it didn't stop it being aggressive. Comengetorix didn't seem to be working properly either. Spawn Again broke down and was counted out. It looked like there was only one winner, Diotoir and Pussycat! They meet Suicidal Tendencies and Steel Avenger in the final.
