(Note: Hydra and Holepunch have a bye to the next round... Zarte did not have his stats for Cry With the Saints)

Sam: Welcome back to the competition, as we get on with our second battle of the evening. Three more machines are ready to go out into the battlefield, but one is about to meet its doom.

From Somerset, Wheely Big Cheese!

The legendary flipper is back! Wheely Big Cheese has good titanium armour, which is strong and sturdy. The main feature is the HUGE flipper which is one of the biggest in Robot Wars, and believe me, this thing packs a punch. If you don't know what I'm talking about... just check out what it did to Axe-Awe in the 5th Wars. :P Exposed wheels are an issue, but you gotta get past the flipper first! :shock:

From Wales, Final Resting Place!

Yipe. This looks pretty scary to me; a brilliantly made machine, with a deadly spinning rim similar to Deldog from the UK VS Germany Series from Robot Wars Extreme Series 2. Very powerful, with the weapon packing a PUNCH, and the robot is invertible, making it extremely dangerous. However, exposed wheels are an issue as with all the invertible bots, but try getting past the weapon. :P

From Toronto in Canada, and the 6th seeded machine, 7roubloon!

Last year's most original entry, Aftershock is back in its new form! Completely rebuilt this season, 7roubloon looks like it means serious business in this tournament. With its two flywheels that spin at 2000 RPM and its 4WD, this machine can cause a serious amount of damage. However, the spin-up time is somewhat slow, and the wheels are exposed as well. Great machine nonetheless.

Roboteers, stand by...

There's Liam and Kody in one control booth driving Final Resting Place and 7roubloon respectively, and also Wheely Big Cheese being driven by Tracy in the other booth. The house robot drivers are again, nowhere to be found, as they are hiding somewhere secret. Wherever it is. In this battle, the house robots will be Sir Killalot with the spear and pincers, and the big daddy of them all, King Arthur with a flywheel which has way more power than Chara's thundering slapshot.

3... 2... 1... ACTIVATE!!!

Off we go, and already the two spinners, Final Resting Place and 7roubloon both gets up to speed here. 7roubloon looks stunning indeed, and so is Final Resting Place, with its spinning rim of fury. Wheely Big Cheese meanwhile, is going for 7roubloon, gets underneath and FLIPS it over! What a flip that was, as the 6th seeds go soaring 7 feet in the air! Man, that was an absolutely huge flip indeed! Huge air time for 7roubloon, but no real damage has been caused to the machine. Good attack by the Robot Wars veterans. Now, Final Resting Place takes exception to that, and SLAMS into the Cheese's right side, full speed ahead!
CRASH!!!
The forecast calls for flurries of sparks, can you believe it?! Man, that's a great hit right there! Wheely Big Cheese has been spun away from the attack, and Final Resting Place already looking dangerous here, my goodness! The Cheese drives away with slight damage, but 7roubloon comes in and slams into the left side of it now! The Cheese trying to get away from danger here...
CRASH!!!
Nope, didn't happen. The wheel takes punishment, as there is a slit in it already. Wheely Big Cheese gets away, and now goes for Final Resting Place... getting underneath and FLIPPING it over! Man, that was a big flip by the two-time semi-finallist of Robot Wars, but Final Resting Place is okay with no apparent damage caused, and now 7roubloon gets into the action and crashes their party! The 6th seed has spun up to full speed and now it goes for Wheely Big Cheese's wheel--
CRASH!!!
Oh man! Sparks are flying and look at the wheel! There is a gash in it, and now Wheely Big Cheese in trouble here, as it suffers some damage. Huge attack there by 7roubloon. Will that be a decisive factor if this battle goes the distance and it's left in the hands of the judges, I wonder? Final Resting Place now spinning up to full speed-- goodness me, the ring is spinning so fast, that you can't even see the blades on that thing! Final Resting Place now slams into the Cheese's side again... The Cheese tries getting away...
CRASH!!!
Ouch, that has to hurt! Now the wheel is damaged even more as it takes a beating from the spinning ring of the Welsh machine. Final Resting Place is looking deadly indeed, and it is clearly doing a great job here. That ring puts out a lot of power, and it shows-- WHOA! 7roubloon gets tossed by the flipper of Wheely Big Cheese, and it comes back down with a huge thud! 7roubloon drives off like nothing ever happened, and just shakes off the attack. We all know the success its previous incarnation, Aftershock has had in this competiton. Last season, it escaped the heat stages by beating Wedga in the Heat B Final. It also came very close to reaching the grand final, only to be put in the pit by Clawdius. However, it won the award for the most original entry in the competition. Wheely Big Cheese, meanwhile is somewhat limping around the arena. This machine has had success in the past; we all know what happened with this machine in the 5th Wars. This machine is famous for flipping Axe-Awe CLEAR out of the ring. That could've easily been one of the biggest flips in Robot Wars history, if not the biggest. However, it is in trouble now, as 7roubloon collides with the wheel of the Robot Wars veteran! Wheely Big Cheese tries to get away...
CRASH!!!
Oh my GAWD! Wheely Big Cheese absolutely gets clobbered by the lethal spinning flywheel of the Canadian machine there! The wheel has been damaged very badly, just look at that gash! Wheely Big Cheese is taking a sheer beating out there! Wheely Big Cheese now does not look like it is moving very well-- uh oh, Final Resting Place spins up, and-- my goodness, that ring is spinning so fast, that it's almost moving in a blur! Now, it gets ready to slam itself right into Wheely Big Cheese again... the Somerset machine trying all it could to flee from danger--
CRASH!!!
.... and that is a CRUSHING HIT! What power! Wheely Big Cheese is receiving no end of trouble as Final Resring Place and 7roubloon won't leave it alone at all, and OH MAN! LOOK AT THE WHEEL! My goodness, that thing is absolutely buckled, and now the two-time semi-finallist of Robot Wars is moving in circles with one side completely disabled. Oh dear... Refbot knows his time has come to count the Cheese out.
1... 2... 3... 4... 5... 6... 7... 8... 9... 10!!!
Wheely Big Cheese is out of there! Tracy puts the controls down and claps for the opponents. The house robots move in for the kill now, and Sir K pushes Wheely Big Cheese onto the floor flipper, and now we will see Wheely Big Cheese soar in t-minus 3... 2... 1... FLIP! The Robot Wars veteran soars up in the air and comes crashing down back on the arena floor! Now King Arthur... oh no, this doesn't look good... HE WOULDN'T!!!
CRASH!!!
The Robot Wars veteran is receiving horrendous punishment here, goodness me! The pit release has been activated, and now, the Cheese is about to get dumped here by King Arthur as it grabs hold of the beaten machine with the jaws and starts driving towards the pit, and finally Wheely Big Cheese gets dumped into the abyss. BOOM!

CEASE!

Wheely Big Cheese has been grated into submission.
Final Resting Place and 7roubloon go through!
