Lizzard vs Project Two: Hex'em
The battle started slowly, taking a while for the robots to meet and when they did it was Lizzard who attacked first, ramming in Project Two: Hex'em. As the battle continued, it was Lizzard who seemed to be on top, slamming into the slow Project Two several times. Shunt then brought its axe down on Project Two: Hex'em but failed to cause any damage. As the two continued to tussle, the pit was opened. Project Two: Hex'em was visibly slowing and the house robots came in to finish it off. However, Project Two escaped and the attacks from Shunt and Bash, only to be whacked by the swan tail of Lizzard. Eventually Project Two stopped moving completely and was counted out by Refbot, It was then pushed onto the drop zone where a oven was dropped on it before going down the pit.

The Lethal Swan vs Meshuggah
Meshuggah smashed into The Lethal Swan, already causing damage. The disc came in again, creating a gouge in the white armour before taking off the tail of the Swan. The power of Meshuggah's disc managed to overturn The Lethal Swan and as it had no way of self-righting, it remained where it was. Meshuggah continued to attack he Lethal Swan as it tried in vain to self-right, tearing into the innards of the white machine. The Lethal Swan was counted out by Refbot before being put back on its wheels by Sir Killalot, although by then The Lethal Swan had long been immobile. Sir Killalot began to burn the head of the swan over the flame pit before dragging it over to the floor flipper where it was upside once again just before cease was called.
