Jeremiah Plunkett was at the center of chaos and controversy once again on Saturday when Pro Wrestling Symphony hosted its Resistance event at the Nashville Fairgrounds as part of the 2026 Music City Fit Expo. The show’s main event saw Colby Carter successfully retain his PWS Championship against Bruss Hamilton, only for a masked figure to slide into the ring wielding a steel chair. The attacker revealed himself to be Plunkett, who has been suspended from PWS following an incident at May’s Blinding Lights event.

With Carter’s back turned, Plunkett whacked Tennessee Strongman director Blake Harris — who accompanied Carter to the ring for the main event — across the back with the chair. Carter turned around and was met with Plunkett’s chair being thrown in his face. Plunkett then dropped the champion on his head with a Piledriver and fled the scene before security could apprehend him. Carter was helped to the back, and loudly demanded that PWS officials lift Plunkett’s suspension so that a rematch could be made official. So far, no decision has been made.
