Following the match George “The Beastman” Fetty escaped his cage and then was attacked by a man who we found out later to be the Congolian Nightmare who was also represented by an unknown person and Quincy O’Neil. The refs tried to break it up as Don West and Nigel would try to get order. Finally the Beastman was caught by Adam and Jon, both APWA officials, at this time Quincy O’Neil made it known they had come to take over the APWA and go straight to the top and they would take out anybody who would get in their way. 7. Before the match Damon Divine would kiss the his life long journal thart he pulled out of his back pack. Before the match he put the journal back in the back pack.

Nigel named Damon the winner, however Damon didn’t want to win it that way and asked for five more minutes. Nigel as the crowd and he granted Damon another five minutes. Damon would defeat Dirty Money to become the new APWA Super Jr. Champion of the World. Following the match when Don West presented the belt to Damon, New Tradition, Christian York, The Stro, and Justn Kace hit the ring and attacked Don West, referee Adam Parsons, and the new champ Damon Divine. They ripped up his journal and strangled him with his back pack. As Don was being carried to the back York would attack him again as New Tradition made an example out of the APWA and Damon Divine.

PRIME Wrestling TV - May 20, 2012 - PRIME TV Champion Gory vs. Michael Facade
PRIME Wrestling TV airs each and every week on our official YouTube page at www.YouTube.com/PRIMEwrestling , with new episodes premiering each Wednesday! Don't want to wait for your PRIME fix? Each episode of PRIME TV premieres Sunday nights at 10:00 Eastern on SportsTime Ohio. Not sure if you get SportsTime Ohio. Visit the "TV" section of our website, www.PRIMEwrestling.com or consult your local listings.
Watch this week's episode now right here -
TV Champion Gory vs. Michael Facade
The "Neon Ninja" has chased the TV prize for over a year, but it remains disrespectfully shrouded in darkness by Gory in his unending goal to crush the dreams of all who oppose him. Can Facade liberate the gold or can Gory continue his macabre cause by retaining a stranglehold on one of PRIME's most prestigious prizes?
Jason Bane vs. Bobby Beverly
Jimmy Jacobs was irate at Beverly for not being able to wrest the PRIME Championship from Matt Cross a couple of months back, and is now instilling "tough love". Jacobs, the "Zombie Princess", is none too happy Beverly is the only member of Sex Appeal to lose since Jacobs has been on the scene. His punishment? A match with the "Most Dominant Man", a very ticked off Jason Bane. Bane has his own boiling anger, after an errant chair shot from Matthew Justice cost Bane a match with Krimson recently. Did Matt do it on purpose or was it an accident? We still aren't sure, but if we don't find out by Sunday, Beverly may have to pay for another's mistake. Can Beverly prove something to Jimmy Jacobs or will Bane make an example out of the would-be Sex Appeal leader?
Jimmy Jacobs vs. Aaron Draven
Jacobs has turned everything upside-down since entering the area - putting Johnny Gargano on the inactive list, decisively defeating Gregory Iron, sending each Sex Appeal member on an individual "spiritual quest" to re-discover themselves, and slapping Bobby Beverly across the face for losing a title match. This week "The Zombie Princess" looks to continue this path against "Omega" Aaron Draven, a man who has been unbeaten in over a year. Draven used his success teaming with Kevin Nash last summer to a springboard of major victories. A win over Jacobs could be his biggest yet and put him in immediate title contention. A Jacobs victory over a 2-time former TV Champion will only serve to prove he is here to stay and very dangerous.
Also: We hear from M-Dogg Matt Cross, Krimson, Kirst, Bryan Castle, and we hope to get an update on the condition of Justin LaBar, including a word from Marion Fontaine.
