Robot Wars: The Third Wars/Special Events

The Third Wars Special Events were three special battles held alongside the main competition during Robot Wars: The Third Wars. These consisted of the Series 3 Middleweight Championship and two battles featuring walkerbots. Other battles were originally intended but were cancelled at the last minute due to an accident in the pits.

Middleweight Melee
Tentomushi vs Hard Cheese vs Grinder vs A-Kill vs Ripper's Revenge

Reigning middleweight champion Hard Cheese started by attacking Ripper's Revenge with its axe, before it was attacked and covered up by Tentomushi. Meanwhile, A-Kill pushed Grinder into Shunt, and Grinder sustained heavy damage from Shunt's axe. Tentomushi covered up Ripper's Revenge while the immobilised Hard Cheese was picked up by Sir Killalot. Tentomushi then had one if it's antennae cut off by the chainsaw of Matilda. As Sir Killalot pushed away the immobilised Grinder, Ripper's Revenge was flipped over by an arena spike and was out of the battle. Tentomushi then started to fight the house robots and covered up Shunt, blocking the radio signal so that Shunt could no longer move. Tentomushi and A-Kill were the only survivors at the end of the battle and the judges declared a draw between the two robots.

Joint Winners: Tentomushi & A-Kill

Walker Battles

 * Miss Struts vs Stomp

Miss Struts slowly advanced on its opponent but Stomp was not able to walk at all. Stomp began to spin around and eventually hit Miss Struts when it got close enough. Miss Struts tried to push Stomp around and eventually the house robots came in and attacked the inactive robot.

Winner: Miss Struts


 * Mammoth vs Anarachnid

Anarachnid slowly moved across the arena but Mammoth was unable to walk properly as the legs just flailed around. Eventually, the robots met and Anarachnid pushed Mammoth to the side. Sgt. Bash set Mammoth's hair on fire with its flamethrower and the other house robots came in and attacked both robots for the rest of the battle. The judges declared a draw between the two robots.

Winner: None (draw declared)
