3/28 NWA Charlotte Report
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Courtesy of Jeff Richards:
Despite miserable weather and NCAA basketball season, NWA Charlotte rebounded from a disastrous fourth show to attract a modest 300+ crowd Saturday night.
Whereas the company's previous show, "Know Thy Enemy," accented the group's growing booking deficiencies, "Zero Tolerance" reclaimed tradition and prior momentum.
The promotion advertised one of the final touring appearances of Abdullah the Butcher and the debut of David Flair. Ringside observers wondered if Abby would enter the ring (he did not) and in what kind of shape was the oldest Flair son.
No one had to worry if there would be plenty of cruiserweight action, as the young 20-somethings bedazzled kids in attendance with their high-flying shenanigans.
A pre-show match actually kickstarted the night's festivities, and a slew of CWF Mid Atlantic (
A. Xsiris pinned "El Fuego" Jesse Ortega in 7:17. Both youngsters were making their NWA Charlotte debuts. Ortega tried to back-suplex his way out of a side headlock, but Xsiris held on for dear life. Menacing glares from Ortega were the first indication that "The Fire" was portraying a heel. Xsiris executed a nice kip-up to an immediate armdrag. Both former CWF tag-team champions need mentoring help in working the crowd. I realized their main responsibility was to warm up the audience, but NWA officials' eyes are always watching. Ortega planted Xsiris face-first with a legtrip and then trimmed his sideburns with a nice sliding dropkick. All the children attending received free NWA Charlotte "thundersticks," and they were beating them like crazy at this point. Ortega's surfboard manuever underneath the ring ropes was innovative. If I had a dollar for every time a cruiserweight pulled off a spinning heel kick tonight, my ticket would've been comped. Ortega used a variation of "Rolling Thunder" in the corner to further cramp Xsiris' style. A clumsy floatover exchange was rescued by Ortega's quick resourcefulness (a cross armbreaker). Ortega also pulled out a rolling koppo kick before succumbing to Xsiris' neckbreaker/pinfall cover combination. It was all pretty much an Ortega offensive display before Xsiris got the sudden duke.
Eddie Rich was back in the NWA Warehouse Saturday, and he does a superb job at setting the stage for what's coming up. rich is prime-time material for the WWE ring announcer prototype. He announced the final match to determine a new NWA Charlotte U.S. Heavyweight Champion would be held on April 11th in the same building. As Rich began explaining the disappearance of tag team Chaotic Agony, laugher peeled from one gentleman. Rich protested, "Sir, this is no laughing matter," to which came the catcalls of "Yes, it is." He addressed an angle from the 2/28 show where Chaos & Agony were thrown off a high stage set (but were back by 3/14). Now they're gone again? Sometimes it doesn't pay to try & explain plot holes.
1. Joey Silvia pinned Malachi (w/new manager Ty Dillinger) in 8:31 after a reversed decision. All three work for Jeff Rudd's CWF Mid Atlantic, and Silvia was in the first ever singles match here. Silvia superkicked the back of Malachi's neck early. Dillinger interfered liberally at ringside in his shirt and tie. Both workers chopped each other with a tenacity that would make Ric Flair envious. With Silvia hung up in the ropes, Malachi delivered a middle rope springboard legdrop which nearly decapitated his prey. Working out of Charleston (SC), Malachi also hit a high angle German suplex for a near fall. After a mix-up of moves mid-ring, Malachi soared back with a powerslam. Malachi ducked a lariat and spiked Silvia with a devastating DDT. Silvia finally showed some offense with a backcracker in the corner, but Dillinger put Malachi's leg on the
ropes. A superplex attempt fell through, so Silvia went for a sunset flip, and Malachi sat down on him with Dillinger providing leverage. Josh Magnum stooged off the illegal pin fall, and Silvia schoolboyed Malachi for the victory. Following the bell, Magnum (a babyface) got some retribution for a couple of Malachi's post-match beatdowns with a chairshot of his own.
Rich alerted fans they they are now able to videotape matches/angles and put them on Youtube to win cash prizes.
2. The American Gangsters (Nicky & Frank) with luscious valet Crystal returned to defeat The Main Attraction (Chris Steele & Scott Powers) in 8:15. Nicky decided to verbally jar with fans on the microphone before the worst match of the night ensued. Gangsters, he said, are on the hunt for the NWA Charlotte Tag-team belts, which don't exist yet. Attraction (last seen locally in Ben Throckmorton's NACW) came out as fan favorites, which was an odd pairing. Steele
now looks like the late Bam Bam Bigelow minus 300 lbs. Powers has bellied up to the bar but not sure if it was a buffet or drinking establishment. Attraction were both wearing Marvel Comics character t-shirts. Powers and Nicky botched the second spot of the match, and the brutality was on. I think the promotion was afraid to book this as a heel vs. heel confrontation. The former Chilly Willy and Powers returned to the same page with an interesting exchange of fingerlocks. Powers powerslammed Nicky, and the Attraction connected with a nifty doubleteam move. Steele still works cruiserweight style and truly could add some psychology to that division. Nicky double underhook suplexed Steele into a nearfall. The Gangsters set up heat on Steele, making Powers the illogical choice for a hot tag. It was definitely an old generation v. new generation tag team tussle. Thankfully, the ultimate hot tag broke into four way action, and Powers got dumped. Steele was left to eat a Nicky kick to the face and a Frank spinebuster; Gangsters improved to 2-0. A white female fan got in their faces on the way back to the dressing room, but security was unavailable. Sounds like a plant!
On the interview stage,
3. "The Warhawk" Dylan Kage pinned Zach Salvation in 10:20. Kage was acting even more bizarre this month. He accidentally stumbled climbing the ropes while his intro music was playing. This was the duo's first meeting in an NWA Charlotte ring. Salvation had teamed previously with the heelish Lewis on Valentine's Day before becoming a beloved baby face. Kage "Pearl-Harbored" his foe, but the cruisers were going too fast and blew some early spots. Salvation decided to fly, but Kage tripped him up so no Asai moonsault. Salvation reversed an Irish whip outside the ring, and Kage took a nasty bump into the great-sounding ringsteps. With a tip of the cap to Ricky Steamboat, Salvation attempted a flying bodypress, but Kage kept rolling over for a nearfall. Salvation even brought back the old-fashioned monkey flip. The two brawled outside the ring again, but back inside Kage began bending back on Salvation's left limb. A cool spot saw Kage give Salvation a Northern Lights suplex while still holding onto a hammerlock. Salvation wanted the win with a small package but only received a two count. Still applying the hammerlock, Kage roared back this time with a backbreaker. Salvation rallied with a Scorpion deathdrop, and a huracanrana sent Kage flopping into the corner. The second time's the charm, as Salvation flip dived ala Jushin Liger, and Kage went splat on the ramp. In the end, though, it was the Kevork kick which spelled the end for Salvation. With mic in hand, Kage questioned Salvation's rise to fame as the "#1 contender" and proclaimed himself "Professional Wrestling's Best Kept Secret."
NWA Charlotte President J.D. Costello entered the ring with a bevy of security guys. Costello said he had just received a text message from Truitt Fields, who said he had been involved in an 9-1-1 accident. This left everyone wondering if Fields' absence was a work or shoot-related. Costello also announced he had called Attorney Jeff G. Bailey and told him to leave his assassin Kimo at home
tonight. Every mention of a heel's name was bringing monster pops. Costello stated that he had some surprises for the likes of Phill Shatter and Mikael Judas. Firstly, he brought out The Iceberg (Edward Chastain) from NWA Anarchy. Then Costello heralded the debut of Team Macktion (Kirby & TJ Mack), who came out to music and a Rock 'n' Roll Express reaction. Judas and NWA National
Heavyweight Champion Shatter strolled out. Why are these two guys siding together after feuding with each other just four shows ago? Macktion (sans Thomas Simpson for this show) attacked early, and Shatter powerslammed TJ on the carpeted ramp. Judas took Kirby up to the top of the stage area, but Mack had other ideas than to take that precarious bump. Shatter and Judas had Kirby alone in the ring for several moments before referee Cash came dashing into the ring.
4. The match officially started, and Team Mack was in for a squashing. Judas bufferfly suplexed Krazy K into the turnbuckles but couldn't get the pin. TJ finally crawled up to the ring apron awaiting his turn at the demolition. Judas accidentally spit on the cameraman at ringside during the heat-gathering. A big Yakuza kick by Judas left Kirby crumbled up in a corner. Judas flew three-fourths of the way across the ring with a clothesline on Kirby. That big move should have been the finish. Next month in
INTERMISSION (at 9:20) lasted 25 minutes.
Costello is truly over-exposed here. With no Jay Joyce in sight (and I know how hard that is to believe), Costello again addressed the audience. The authoritative figure brought out all the "bad guys" from the dressing room area. Gangsters, Lewis, Malachi, Shatter, Judas, Ryan O'Reilly and Ostgard were in the ring. Dressed in red, Abdullah the Butcher returned to
5. Magnum vs. Ostgard was ruled a no contest in 10:20 when Malachi made his third appearance of the night. There must be a tattoo parlor nearby the NWA Coliseum because I have never seen so many tats in one place. And that's just the workers. Ostgard is quite flamboyant and was acting all "ManScout" during the pre-match intros. Magnum, a regular in
seemingly waiting for Malachi's interference. Ostgard with a nice floatover on a snap suplex showed off his inimitable chain wrestling skills. He slid under Magnum to apply a half crab submission attempt. There was supposed to be a schoolboy near-fall off an exchange Ostgard had with referee Ace, but Magnum was nowhere in position. Magnum did his handspring elbow into the ropes for an enzugiri but missed on a 450 when Malachi made his appearance. The announce table broke Magnum's fall after Malachi gave Josh a shove. For good measure, Malachi also powerbombed a prone Ostgard. Xsiris, Salvation and Silvia hit the ring to confront Malachi, but the heelish cruiserweights weren't far behind. As all eight men slugged it out, Costello (w/Iceberg) told the lighter weight wrestlers that they could all battle for the NWA Charlotte Cruiserweight Title on April 25th in a TLC battle royal. Magnum was left in the ring to soak up the cheers.
