Darn... I forgot about that. I know from looking at the arena markings that the Sumo Basho was filmed concurrently with the Tag Team Terror, and Team Razer's website confirms that the Southern Annihilator was filmed three days after its defeat in the main competition, so there is sense in believing that the side events would've been filmed after the main Series 4.

Hadn't Splinter been trashed, I'm sure it would've had the perfect weapons for Soccer matches...
