BILL BEHRENS NWA NOTES for 1-23-06
NWA ANARCHY TV TAPING 1-21-06 BY JAMES OLSEN
Whew what a night Saturday was! A crowd of over 200 paid fans (one of the largest ever for a TV taping in the building in recent years) who were white hot from bell to bell, witnessed some top notch competition and some key events unfold as the NWA Anarchy Television product's syndication has begun.
Let's take a look at the highlights of the card, the results and news items:
1) Ken Westbrooks defeated Adrian Hawkins via a submission
- The grappler famous statewide for his amateur accomplishments, Westbrooks, showed a really intense step-up in his game. We talked about the stakes rising with the promise of television stardom for these guys, and it looks like Westbrooks is showing he wants more high profile matches.
- Hawkins looked okay out there. The kid reminds me of a young Mike Pittman. You can definitely see the raw talent he has, so if he can put it together, a little more seasoning will see him rise in the ranks.
2)Alabama Attitude defeated The Urban Assault Squad in the finals of an 8 team turmoil match for the #1 Contendership to the NWA Anarchy Tag Team Titles.
- Anarchy Tag Team Champions Jeremy V and Jason Blackman provided guest commentary for this match, scouting out their next title defense.
- The match also included the first ever two on two show down between the most prominent version of the former 3 Guys Who Totally Rule as Fast Eddie and Sal Rinauro collided with "Kool" Seth Delay and Patrick Bentley. That match saw Fast Eddie hit the "Fasteddious" on Seth Delay from the apron to the floor!! That was undoubtedly one of the wildest moves of the night! These two teams eliminated each other by going the time limit.
- The turmoil also included Hallowmass (who I hear are on their way to Mexico's AAA promotion, good job guys!), The High Rollers, The returning Texas Treats, and Rahn Jordan & James Boulevard.
- I actually predicted the Attitude victory in our last column here, but it's not a prediction I really wanted to come true. They embodied what I said though, they had something to prove and now they have a shot at the tag team championships once more.
-The Urban Assault Squad are waiting patiently to cash in their re-match clause title shot as former champions. There is no expiration date on that, and they can petition the championship committee for it at any time. It appears their playing their own game of chess to see how the pieces fall.
3) Brandon P defeated Tank by DQ in a brutal match.
- There were some sparks flying before this match even got under way. Credit Maria Berry's Bodyslam This for this tidbit:
"Steven Prazak was in the arena last night to serve as special guest ring announcer for the match between Brandon P and one of Dan Wilson's Devil Rejects. There were some heated words exchanged between the two men, Wilson & Prazak, who once served as the announce team for NWA Wildside."
- Prazak refused the offer to join and quickly ran away, but not before Anarchy matchmaker Jerry Palmer came out to set some things straight. It appeared Wilson anticipated this, as he'd somehow obtained a manager's liscense not only for himself, but for the 7 foot tall Dominous to serve as his bodyguard. Palmer, however banned the rest of the crew, Shaun Tempers, Azrael, and Iceberg from ringside and showing authority said he wouldn't even have the match if they didn't leave.
- The match itself was a brutal affair that showed a new side of Brandon P. The mentoring from "The Soul Assassin" Kory Chavis appears to be paying off. We've seen him fearless in trying to fend off the Rejects in previous weeks, but he hit Tank with as many haymakers as he could throw as soon as the bell rang in this one. It appeared Tank was legitimately surprised as he may have underestimated P. Tank was able to gain control of the match and put a first class pounding on Brandon...but he kept fighting back! Even after 3 of Tank's sick headbutt flurries, P staggered to his senses and knocked Tank loopy with a Jerry Lawler style punch right between the eyes! As he used the chance to hit his missile dropkick, The Rejects defied Palmer's orders and all hit the ring for the DQ, showing they have no respect for anything.
- Showing his fearless attitude in taking a leadership role defending NWA Anarchy, "The Soul Assassin" Kory Chavis came to his protege's aid.
Not far behind him was the returning ACE ROCKWELL!!! Many wondered if he'd ever return to wrestling after his best friend of 10 years Shaun Tempers joined The Devil's Rejects. The skeptics were silenced as Rockwell hit the ring in a fury and went right after his former partner and near brother. Dominous and Wilson were quick to get Tempers out of harms way so Rockwell never got his hands on him unfortunately.
- As a result of this chaos, matchmaker Palmer made a 6 man tag team grudge match for the next TV Taping on February 4th, 2006.
It will be Kory Chavis, Brandon P, and Ace Rockwell vs. 3 of the Devil's Rejects in 6 man tag team action!! I'm sure Palmer is looking for another way to punish the Rejects for direct violation of an executive order, which resulted in the ending of the match.
4) Big Henry Hoss won a 3 way match
- The fans seem to be quite happy that the big Hoss has returned.
- He debuted a new finishing move called the Kender-Breaker and was also in great spirits all night as he bragged about his daughter killing her first deer to anyone that would listen.
5) "The Human Action Figure" Patrick Bentley defeated "Unrated" Sal Rinauro in a great match.
- Rinauro came out complaining about the tag team turmoil match draw and how he'll prove that one on one he can smoke Bentley. Bentley responded and surprised Sal in about 8 minutes with a pinning combination. This was a big win for Bentley over Sal who's raised his stock as a star in such promotions as Ring Of Honor and Full Impact Pro Wrestling.
6) NWA Anarchy Television Championship: "The Feature Presentation" Jeff Lewis and Hayden Young battled to a 15 minute time limit draw.
- This was a rematch from their previous 10 minute draw. Young is proving himself to be a thorn in the side of the champion. None of Jeff Lewis' predictions came true, he didn't get DQ'd, he didn't get counted out. He probably thought he'd be able to easily beat Young and squash his contendership hopes quickly. He kept trying to put him away, but Young's heart really showed through. I'd dare say he even outwrestled Lewis in this match, where there last encounter was about 50/50.
- Also on February 4th, another re-match has been ordered with the 15 minute standard TV time limit as of press time. Young is now running on borrowed time. If Lewis beats him after two draws, it's going to be hard to fathom him getting another title shot. If Young can go the distance again he may earn himself another shot, but even that is questionable depending on how he looks in the match. Either way, this will be one competitive match.
7) Main Event- The God Squad: Chad Parham & Luke defeated Onyx & Mikal Adryan after a top rope double stomp and Halo combo pinned Onyx.
- Jeff G. Bailey, also not exactly on the Christmas Card list of the Palmer family called the Anarchy owner a "Moon Faced Simpleton" for recruiting Luke, saying that he'd begged to join the NWA Elite at the end of NWA Wildside and he may still be on his side. (This was proven to be untrue)
- This match was made as a result of the NWA Elite's attempt to ruin Todd Sexton's send-off party after Adryan defeated him in a loser leaves town match. Parham made the save, and Palmer made the match as a dream partner tag collision!
- Jeff G. Bailey tried to sway the outcome of the match with interference but was thwarted by "Kool" Seth Delay and "The Human Action Figure" Patrick Bentley (Parham's best friends). Bentley sprayed what appeared to be water from a spray bottle in Bailey's eyes and he had a fit claiming blindness. If it was just water, (which Anarchy representatives have every indication to believe it was) then Bailey is one big p***y. Onyx and Adryan were furious in the post match, Onyx claimed it was gasoline, Bailey threatened a lawsuit, and Adryan was freaking out. Jerry Palmer told him he'd better get well soon because on 2/4/06 they'd also be involved in a 6 man tag, with Parham, Bentley and Delay taking on Onyx, Mikal Adryan, and JEFF G. BAILEY!!!
Other News and Notes:
- Jeff G. Bailey was apparently having a terrible weekend after being "blinded" and then hearing the TV play by play of his Carolina Panthers losing the NFC Championship game to The Seattle Seahawks. He contacted the Anarchy offices this morning stating that he plans on pursuing full legal action unless there is an investigation as to the "real" contents of the water bottle he was sprayed with. I mean, Bailey's done some horrible things to people, so I wouldn't put it past anyone to try and knock him off. That being said, I talked to Bentley and Delay, and they say it was meant to simply equalize the match and they swear it was just water and I believe them. This should take some interesting turns.
- Ace Rockwell is set to appear in a major motion picture soon. Word has it that it will star Ashton Kutcher and Kevin Costner and is filming somewhere in the coastal Carolinas with a navy theme, tentatively titled “The Guardian”. More on this as we get it. Rockwell was in a far from chipper mood Saturday night and would hardly talk to anyone but Kory Chavis whom he seemed to be asking for advice. It was great to see him back and okay after what the Rejects did to him, and his bad mood was certainly understandable.
- The new wrestling promotion slated to begin filming for MTV soon will feature NWA Arena favorites, Luke, Delirious, Matt Sydal, and "The Original Gangsta" New Jack announced as of press time. Word on the street is that Sal Rinauro and Jimmy Rave are also rumored to be a part of this, but not confirmed.
- Longtime NWA arena favorite Caprice Coleman took on another Wildside alumnist, Jamie Noble in a WWE match, featured on WWE.com. Also on WWE.com in the “Unlimited” portion you can see Jeff Lewis, Mikal Adryan, Shadow Jackson, and Brandon P escorting Todd Sexton’s legendary trainer “HBK” Shawn Michaels from the building.
- And for the fans that miss the action live in the NWA Arena, don’t forget to check out NWA Anarchy on one of these great affiliates, or check your local listings. If your local network providers don’t carry it ask for it by name! We’ll talk to you later next week for the February 4th Television preview.

NWA ANARCHY RESULTS TV TAPING 1-21-06 BY MARIA BERRY
Ken Westbrooks defeated Adrian Hawkins via a submission
Tag Team Turmoil match- After seeing teams from Salvatore Rinuaro & Fast Eddie, Seth Delay & Patrick Bentley, the High Rollers and the Texas Treats elminated in this match to determine the number one contender for the tag team titles the final match up of the turmoil match featured the feud of the year participants Alabama Attitude and the Urban Assault Squad.
Alabama Attitude defeated Urban Assault Squad by holding Nemesis' foot and allowing the 3 count.
Steven Prazak was in the arena last night to serve as special guest ring announcer for the match between Brandon P and one of Dan Wilson's Devil Rejects. There were some heated words exchanged between the two men, Wilson & Prazak, who once served as the announce team for nwa wildside. Owner Jerry Palmer, forced Azrael, Iceberg & Shaun Tempers to leave the ring area. Leaving Tank to face off with Brandon P, along with Dominous and Dan Wilson at ringside. Slowly all three Devil's Rejects made their way back to ringside to become involved in the match. Kory Chavis and Ace Rockwell came to Brandon P's aid, who won the match via dq. Murder 1 also came and stood on the ramp watching the action unfold, after the Reject's left ringside Murder 1 exited behind them....could Murder 1 be joining with the Rejects.
Big Henry Hoss won a 3 way match defeating his opponents with his brand new finisher the Kender Backbreaker (Kender is Redneck spelled backwards...great idea for the big man)
TV title match- Jeff Lewis successfully defended his tv title over Hayden Young once again when the time ran out on the match. Great match between these two young lions, look for more matches out of them in the future I'm sure.
Main Event- Chad Parham & Luke (formerly known as Altar Boy Luke) defeated Onyx & Mikal Adryan. Jeff G. Bailey tried hard to get involved in the match but was stopped by Patrick Bentley & Seth Delay, Bentley sprayed Bailey in the eyes with his water bottle leaving the big mouthed manager blinded for the remainder of the match.

First the NWA GCW news. The wrestlers here next week, that I know of, will be Colt Darrenger, Rock-C and the Queen of GCW Bad Company's Amy Young. GCW TV champion Mike Foxx suffered a dislocated shoulder and returned home to Texas to get it evaluated. How long he will be out is not known. GCW Hi Voltage was shown last night. Basically it showed the endings of all the matches and also wrestler interviews. Good show overall. Around 300 people like there was last week, with there only being a handful of ringside seats left. Fans had a chance to get their pictures taken with the GCW tag team champions, John Bogie and Erik Watts.
The first match of the evening was the debut of Scott Steele as he took on Heath Miller. Miller is a very popular wrestler in the sports arena. The match started off with both wrestlers exchanging hammerlocks, until Heath got the first advantage with drop toe. But Miller's advantage didn't last long, because a few minutes later after a jumping forearm, Steele hits a hiptoss. He then sent Heath into the corner and hits shoulder thrust. A few seconds later, Steele hits a over head belly to belly suplex. Scott then hits a suplex. Miller is able to regain the momentum by cipping Steele's knee. Then he started to go to work on knee with knee drivers and such. Now there was a brief moment when Scott got an advantage when he was able to reverse a irish whip and hit a powerslam. But Miller ducks a Steele clothesline and hits Slice Bread #2. Then Heath went back to work on the big man's leg by elbowing the knee and then grapevining the leg. A short time later Miller locks Steele into a sharpshooter. After being able to fight off a comeback from Scott, which includes a cobra clutch sweep over the knee backbreaker, Heath is able to whip Scott into the corner and then hits a DDT. Miller then climbs to the top and hits Steele with a flying crossbody. Heath eventually puts Scott into a sleeper, but Scott broke the move by slamming Heath back first into the corner. He then puts Miller into a running powerslam, ala the British Bulldog. Now it looked like Heath regained the advantage was it looked like he was going to hit the twilt a whirl DDT, but Scott slips out and hits a huge spear. The Steele picks Miller up and hits a crucifix powerbomb for the victory. Winner in 8:13 Scott Steele.
The 2nd match of the evening was Cru Jones taking on Vordell Walker. Neither wrestler was able to get an early advantage with both wrestlers exchanging holds. Walker was finally able to the first shot in by hitting a northern lights suplex.. Vordell later hits some chops in the corner, but soon Cru is able to gain the advantage. Jones puts Walker up into the fireman’s carry and hits a over the knee ribbreaker. A few seconds later, when it looked like Vordell was coming back, Cru hits a huge running knee to the gut. He then whips Walker into the corner and meets him with an overhead belly to belly suplex. But Vordell began to fight back and hits Cru with a German. Then he goes into the corner waiting for Jones to get up. Cru gets up and staggers into the corner, only to be met with a dropkick to the chest by Vordell. Walker then hits Jones with a running clothesline. Cru though started to fight back by being innovative and hitting a modified shoulder breaker. Now the ending was weird in that both wrestlers were running around, but Walker was able to get the victory as he puts Jones into a sunset flip pin for the victory. Winner in 7:16 Vordell Walker.
Another first for GCW as Guy Hagler did a live backstage interview with Bad Company’s Chris Stevens. Stevens explained why he attacked Mike Foxx. He told everyone that he is moving on to bigger and better things and that he is going to kick Damien Steele’s butt tonight.
The next match was the Damien Steele taking on Bad Company’s Chris Stevens, who was accompanied to the ring by Greg Brown. Steele got the early advantage as he surprises Stevens with a headlock takeover. A few seconds later he puts Chris on his back with a running shoulder. Stevens tries to hit a belly to back suplex, but Steele reverses the attempt into headlock takeover. A short time later, Chris takes a short cut by pulling Damien’s hair to send him to the mat, but Damien regained the advantage with a headlock takeover. While being kept in the headlock, Stevens finally get to his feet and reverses Steele’s headlock into a over the top wristlock and turns that into a sweep. Chris hits Damien with a running shoulder block, but Damien was eventually able to hit a dropkick to the mush. He then whips Stevens into the ropes and performs a back body drop. This sends Chris to the outside. Now when Stevens returned to the ring, he made Steele drop his guard. He extended his hand out to shake Damien’s hand, then he kicks him in the gut. Stevens then starts chop Steele in the corner and started to work on Steele’s arm. Chris hits Damien with a single arm DDT, the move that dislocated Foxx’s shoulder. He then traps Steele’s arm behind Steele’s back and hits a arm trap slam. After hitting a belly to back suplex, Chris locks in a standing armbar. Steele is able to reverse a suplex into a schoolboy, but could only get a two. He is then met by a huge clothesline by Chris, and eventually Chris goes back to work on the arm with another standing armbar.

The first match of the evening was the debut of Scott Steele as he took on Heath Miller. Miller is a very popular wrestler in the sports arena. The match started off with both wrestlers exchanging hammerlocks, until Heath got the first advantage with drop toe.

A few seconds later, Steele hits a over head belly to belly suplex. Scott then hits a suplex. Miller is able to regain the momentum by cipping Steele's knee.

The Steele picks Miller up and hits a crucifix powerbomb for the victory. Winner in 8:13 Scott Steele.
The 2nd match of the evening was Cru Jones taking on Vordell Walker. Neither wrestler was able to get an early advantage with both wrestlers exchanging holds.

He then whips Walker into the corner and meets him with an overhead belly to belly suplex. But Vordell began to fight back and hits Cru with a German. Then he goes into the corner waiting for Jones to get up. Cru gets up and staggers into the corner, only to be met with a dropkick to the chest by Vordell. Walker then hits Jones with a running clothesline. Cru though started to fight back by being innovative and hitting a modified shoulder breaker. Now the ending was weird in that both wrestlers were running around, but Walker was able to get the victory as he puts Jones into a sunset flip pin for the victory. Winner in 7:16 Vordell Walker.
Another first for GCW as Guy Hagler did a live backstage interview with Bad Company’s Chris Stevens. Stevens explained why he attacked Mike Foxx. He told everyone that he is moving on to bigger and better things and that he is going to kick Damien Steele’s butt tonight.
The next match was the Damien Steele taking on Bad Company’s Chris Stevens, who was accompanied to the ring by Greg Brown. Steele got the early advantage as he surprises Stevens with a headlock takeover. A few seconds later he puts Chris on his back with a running shoulder. Stevens tries to hit a belly to back suplex, but Steele reverses the attempt into headlock takeover. A short time later, Chris takes a short cut by pulling Damien’s hair to send him to the mat, but Damien regained the advantage with a headlock takeover.

Capital Sports Center (1915 Gladden Road) in Plainfield
In the opening contest, Eddie Kingston defeated Hillbilly Jed. Kingston controlled much of the match, and anytime Jed would try to mount some offense, Kingston would pull something out of his bag of dirty tricks. Late in the match, Jed caught a charging Kingston with a boot to the face and followed it up with a swanton bomb. Jed went for a twisting splash from the second turnbuckle, but Kingston moved, and Kingston was able to capitalize with a series of mafia kicks and a short arm lariat to pick up the pinfall victory.
Chandler McClure defeated The Indiana Kidd with a stunner variation that saw Kidd belly-to-belly with is legs wrapped around McClure as McClure dropped down.
Arik Cannon defeated B.J. Whitmer in a close, hard-hitting match. The matched started with a series of comedy spots involving Cannon, Whitmer, and referee Bryce Remsburg before Whitmer took control. In the end, Whitmer perched Cannon on the top and executed a superplex. However, Cannon was able to hook Whitmer’s legs with his own and got his shoulder off the mat to score the pin and the victory.
In a fast paced encounter, Matt Sydal retained the NWA Midwest X-Division Championship over Billy Roc. After trading some holds, Roc caught Sydal on the top rope with a drop kick, crotching Sydal on the top rope and sending him to the floor. After trading chops on the floor, Sydal was able to connect with a running shinning wizard on Roc in the corner and followed it up with a second rope leg drop. Sydal then tried to finish Roc with a series of submission holds, trying to ground Roc by focusing on Roc’s legs. Roc tried to battle back, floating over into a DDT, but only scoring a 2 count. Sydal started showing frustration in trying to put Roc away after only getting a 2 count following a pump-handle in a Michinoku driver. Roc would rally the crowd behind him and hit Sydal with a flying elbow, and Roc went to top rope for his patented frog splash. However, Sydal got his knees up and rolled into a cover, but only got another 2 count. Sydal finally scored the pinfall with a standing shooting-star press.
Delirious, in his usual fashion, defeated C.J. Otis. Delirious went for his trademark top rope splash, but Otis caught him and turned it into a sit down powerbomb. Otis looked to put Delirious away with a second turnbuckle piledriver, but Delirious floated over into a sunset flip, only getting a two count. Otis would hit Delirious with a spear and went for the burning hammer, but Delirious again floated over for another two count. Otis looked to hit another spear on Delirious in the corner, but Delirious avoided it and rolled over Otis to finally get the three count.
Prior to intermission, Ian announced that IWA Mid-South would return to Plainfield on Friday, February 17th for Hardcore Hell and Back. At this show, tickets for the 2006 King of the Death Matches, scheduled for June 2nd and 3rd in Plainfield, would go on sale.
Back from intermission, Darin Corbin took on the man from Stone Mountain, GA … Nate “The Snake” Roberts (Spyder Nate Webb doing his best Jake Roberts impression, complete with sack over his shoulder). With Corbin leery of the ominous sack in the corner, Nate had control of the match early until Corbin forgot about the sack and took control. Nate would attempt the DDT, but Corbin got the referee distracted and hit a low blow on Nate. Corbin then went for the Rude awakening, but Nate reversed it into a clothesline and then hit the DDT to pick up the win. After the match, Nate went to dump the contents of the sack on Corbin, but Corbin scrambled away, falling over a chair on his way out of the gym.
The Iron Saints (Vito & Sal Thomaselli) retained their IWA Tag Team Championship by defeating The Soul Shooters (Apollo Star & Drew Johnson). The Soul Shooters isolated Sal early in the match, and while Vito gave the Saints a momentary advantage, the Soul Shooters continued to work on Sal. The Saints would take over control when Sal hit a Death Valley driver shoulder breaker on Star. The Saints continued to work over Star, but a hot tag to Johnson gave the South Shooters the momentum, and a diving head butt by Vito saved the titles when Johnson appeared to have Sal pinned. However, a super kick by Sal into a German suplex by Vito sent Johnson to the outside. This left Star in prime position for Vito to hit a spinbuster, followed by a swanton bomb by Sal using Vito for leverage, allowing the Saints to score the pin and retain their titles.
Up next was the tag team scramble match for the NWA Midwest Tag Team Championship. The rules of this match were that two teams started and after five minutes, another team would enter. Then, every three minutes, another team would enter, and if at any point one member of a team lost a fall, that team would be eliminated.
The first two teams in the match were the NWA Midwest Tag Team Champions The Black & The Brave (Tyler Black & Marek Brave) and Irish Airborne (Crazy J & Lotus). Black and Brave sent both Crazy J and Lotus to the floor, but failed to capitalize when Brave missed an Asai moonsault and Black missed a twisting dive to the floor. This allowed Irish Airborne to take the advantage, concentrating on the weakened knee of Brave.
The team of Chris Hero & Claudio Castagnoli entered the match and sent Brave, Crazy J, and Black to the floor. With Lotus down on the mat, Hero would monkey flip Castagnoli, sending him flying onto Lotus, allowing Castagnoli to pin Lotus and eliminate Irish Airborne.
As Hero and Castagnoli turned their attention to Black and Brave, the Tough Crazy Bastards (The Necro Butcher & “Mr. Insanity” Toby Klein) entered the match. Hero and Castagnoli wanted no part of Necro and Klein and the cleared the ring in a hurry. Klein started brawling on the outside with Hero while Necro slammed Black with a chair on the outside. With Brave still hobbled on the outside, Klein turned his attention to the Black in the ring as Necro went looking for Hero and Castagnoli, who had hidden themselves behind the curtain. When Castagnoli revealed himself, Necro was there to meet him with a trash can.
The team of Brain Damage & Deranged entered the match and immediately went after Necro and Klein looking to avenge their loss to the Bastards last month. As Necro and Brain Damage battled in the ring and Klein and Deranged brawled on the floor, Black, Brave, Hero, and Castagnoli kept their distance, catching a breather on the outside. Anticipating that the action may spill towards them, Black and Brave each grabbed a steel chair, but they were jumped from behind by Hero and Castagnoli. Using the bleachers, Hero and Castagnoli continued to work over Brave’s injured leg, and also decided to go to work on Black’s leg.
21 & Irresponsible (Brandon Thomaselli & Josh Abercrombie) entered the match, and were immediately approached by Hero and Castagnoli to form an alliance, which Thomaselli and Abercrombie accepted despite the objections of their corner man, Eddie Kingston. Meanwhile, Necro and Derange were having a stiffing duel in the ring, which Necro won with a big right cross. The action between Necro, Klein, Brain Damage, and Deranged spilled back to the outside, where Necro and Klein came across the beaten Black and Brave. Necro gave Brave some free shots before showing Brave how it’s really done, while Klein stuffed Black into a trash can. Meanwhile, Hero and Castagnoli tried to form another alliance with Brain Damage and Deranged, but they would have none of that and stared going to work on Hero and Castagnoli.
Necro and Black found their back to the ring, and Thomaselli and Abercrombie were ushered back to the ring as well. Hero jumped Necro from behind, sending him into Brain Damage and Deranged on the ring apron, and they suplexed Necro to the floor, taking him out of the equation. As Hero and Castagnoli continued to avoid the action, Thomaselli and Abercrombie continued the assault on the weakened Black and Brave on the outside. In the ring, Klein hit a plancha on Brain Damage and Derange on the outside. Klein would then reverse a pump-handle attempt by Deranged into a Death Valley driver onto a chair and score the pin, eliminating Brain Damage and Deranged.
Taking advantage of situation, Hero attacked Klein and got the pin with a back slide and his feet on the ropes, eliminating the Tough Crazy Bastards.
Thomaselli and Abercrombie shoved Brave into the ring, essentially making the match a 4-on-2 with Black and Brave at the disadvantage. The four heels isolated Brave from his partner and continued to assault his wounded leg. Out of nowhere, Brave was able to pull Abercrombie into an inside cradle and scored the pinfall, eliminating 21 & Irresponsible.
Hero then hit the ring and tried to pick up where Abercrombie had failed. Brave tried the inside cradle again as Black chased off 21 & Irresponsible with a chair, but Brave could get a two count. Hero and Castagnoli would again try to isolate Brave, but a sudden spear allowed Brave to make the hot tag to Black, who cleaned house, including a rolling stunner on Castagnoli. Hero and Castagnoli would hit the monkey flip splash, this time on Brave, but Brave kicked out just short of three. In the end, Castagnoli would accidently hit Hero when Brave moved out of the way, and as Black dragged Hero to the outside, Brave hit a back ensiguri on Castagnoli and get the pin to retain the tag team titles. This was a hot match with a lot of great action, easily the match of the night.
The first of the double main event was the highly anticipated Barbed Wire Board, Razorblade Board Death Match between Brandon Prophet and Corporal Robinson. Prophet was able to get some open shots in to Robinson’s head, but Robinson then returned the shots in kind. Prophet was the first to taste the barbed wire when Robinson rubbed Prophet’s head in the wire, and followed that up with a steel chair to Prophet’s head. This time it was Prophet who would return the favor by suplexing Robinson through a set of chairs that Robinson had set up on the outside.
Back in the ring, Prophet suplexed Robinson onto the barbed wire and then rubbed Robinson’s head in the wire. Prophet then tried to rub Robinson’s head on the razor blades, but Robinson was able to keep his head free of the blades. After Robinson gave Prophet a northern lights suplex onto the barbed wire, Prophet would give Robinson a spinbuster onto the razor blades. Prophet came very close to feeling the razor blades himself after a super kick by Robinson sent Prophet dangerously close to the blades.
The match spilled to the outside and after taking down Prophet, Robinson bridged the razor blade board across four chairs on the floor. As Robinson went to retrieve Prophet, Prophet battled back and looked to put Robinson away as he climbed to the top rope. However, Robinson caught Prophet and sent Prophet sailing from the top rope through the razor blade board on the floor. Finally, Robinson locking a choke on the floor and forced Prophet to tap out. Prophet received a standing ovation for his efforts during the match.
The second main event was the steel cage match between Jimmy Jacobs and Bull Pain. Bull was accompanied by Jim Fannin, who said that if he got his hands on Jacobs, he would throw Jacobs around like a rag doll. As would be expected, Jacobs was hesitant to enter the cage, and as Jacobs stared at Bull through the cage door, Fannin locked Jacobs in a full nelson. This allowed Bull to come out and pound on Jacobs. Both Fannin and Bull brutalized Jacobs on the floor, using the metal bat wrapped in barbed wire on Jacobs’ head, back, stomach, and groin. After Fannin fulfilled his promise by throwing Jacobs across a row of chairs, Bull wrapped a steel chair around Jacobs’ ankle and stomped the chair.
Eventually, Jacobs was thrown into the cage and the bell rang to officially start the match. Jacobs kicked the door into Bull to try and keep him out of the ring, but it was all in vain. After hitting a contra code on Bull, Jacobs tried to leave the ring, but Fannin and the barbed wire metal bat kept Jacobs in the ring. Jacobs then tried to beat down Bull with a chair, using it to choke Bull, and then raked Bull’s head across the cage. After Bull asked Jacobs if that was he had, Jacobs hit a low blow and tried a hurricanrana, but Bull caught Jacobs and drove Jacobs into the cage three times before power bombing him. At this point, Fannin threw the bat in the ring and locked the cage door. Bull again used the bat to hit Jacobs in the back and groin and then dropped a leg across Jacobs’ throat with the bat across Jacobs’ throat.
After a sickening chair shot to Jacobs’ head, Bull went for a pin, but to everyone’s surprise, Jacobs broke up the pin by reaching the ropes. Bull the hit Jacobs with a side piledriver on a steel chair, but Jacobs again reached the ropes. As Fannin and Bull told the referee to forget that he saw the foot on the ropes, Bull went for another pin, but Jacobs again put his foot on the ropes. Since the referee insisted on enforcing the rules instead of ignoring Jacobs’ foot on the ropes, Bull nailed the referee with the barbed wire bat. Meanwhile, Jacobs found his way to the other side of the ring and was able to climb up and out of the cage, thus winning the match, before Bull realized what had happened. With Jacobs on the floor, Fannin went after Jacobs with a chair, but Jacobs caught Fannin with a low blow and escaped. Still angry at the referee, Bull wrapped a chair around the referee’s ankle and hit the chair with the bat, as the referee screamed in pain.

SHOW NEWS & NOTES
Pro Wrestling Express drew a great and loud crowd to the Palisades for the inaugural Iron City Classic Tag Team Tournament. This show was being billed as the first super-show in Pittsburgh in 2006, and it lived up to they hype as the largest crowd to see a pro wrestling show at the Palisades in recent memory saw a great night of tag team action from a promotion with one of the deepest tag team divisions in the United States.
The opening of the first round of the eight-team tournament saw Devin Devine & Chris Taylor from 987 pull out a big win over Section 8 Mafia. Section 8 Mafia had wrestled in a few matches for the promotion in 2005, and was looking to impress enough to make the full time roster - no small feat in a thriving tag team division. Devine & Taylor were one of the favorites heading into this tournament, and they wrestled like it, controlling the pace of the match, and isolating Brandon X from his partner the Bouncer. X was obviously dazed, but finally fought thru the barrage and made the tag to Bouncer, who cleaned house. Bouncer had Devine up in a fireman's carry, but Devine wiggled out and pushed the big man into a waiting Taylor who, looked to have caught him with a foreign object. As Bouncer staggered back Devine rolled him up, and insured a victory by grabbing a fistful of tights. Section 8 looked very good here, and the loss left a very bad taste in their mouth - a return seeking revenge against 987 may very well be in their future.
BC Steele hit the ring next, accompanied by members of 987. Steele said that the honorable Scott Venom couldn't make it to the show tonight, because he was on a big recruiting trip for 987 in Ohio. Steele said that he was in charge though, because he had been hired by Mr. Venom as 987's Executive Personnel Manager. Steele stated that Venom had recruited a major weapon for 987, who would take his spot in the six man tag team match
