1. Fatal Four Way - "The Right Price" Aaron Masterson pinned Hunter Matthews with an O'Conner rollup in a match also including "The Laotian Sensation" Ricky Kwong (w/ "The Laotian Liasion" Chad Mylan) and Brady A. Dezire. Yes, you read that right - Aaron Matserson has now won a match in 3XW! The crowd was ecstatic while Matthews looked like he was about to cry in the ring after losing the match.
2. Brian Ash (w/ Todd Countryman) defeated Maddog McDowell by DQ. Ash slammed a chair on the mat, threw it to McDowell and fell to the mat outside of ref Steve Biley's view, only for Biley to turn around and ctach McDowell with the chair, thus DQ'ing him.
3."The Rockstar" Jimmy Rockwell successfully defended the 3XW Cruiserweight championship over Sir Bradley Charles with a Rock N' Rollup for the pin. Both men shook hands following the bout. Midnight Guthrie entered the ring following the match and announced that the Board of Directors had just informed him that Rockwell would be receiving a 3XW Heavyweight title shot at Over the Top in May. Suddenly, Kraig Keesaman ran down the entrance ramp and hammered Rockwell from behind, then charged at Guthrie, who leapt through the ropes out of the ring. Keesaman then nailed Rockwell with the Nordic Spike. He took the mic and was furious, saying with his undefeated streak, he should be the one receiving the Heavyweight title shot in May.
4. Mark Sterling and The High Flyers ("The Unbreakable" Zach Thompson and Mike Sydal) beat The Gentlemen's Club (Gage Octane and 3XW Tag Team champions Devin Carter and Casanova w/ 3XW Commissioner Todd Countryman) after Sterling submitted Casanova with the Markshooter. Sterling refused to release the hold following the match as the rest of the Gentlemen's Club looked on in horror outside the ring. After Sterling finally released the hold and tossed Casanova out of the ring, it was announced by Countryman that he would give Sterling what he wanted - a match with Gage Octane at Over the Top on May 7. Countryman also announced that Thompson and Sydal would squre off at Over the Top in a Loser Leaves 3XW match!
5. Rory Fox pinned "Torturous" Tony Sly following a full nelson slam to win the Locust Street Brawl (No DQ Street Fight) and gain entry into May's Gauntlet for the Gold battle royal. Immediately before the end of the match, Sly swung a chair at Fox, only to miss his opponent and have the chair bounce back in his face after hitting the ropes.
6. "The Viking Warrior" Kraig Keesaman successfully defended the 3XW Pure Wrestling championship after pinning Krotch following a Nordic Spike. Keesaman has now not been pinned or submitted in the past 22 months of 3XW action.
7. Sexy and Smooth ("The Canadian Sex Icon" Ryan Slade and A.J. Smooth) beat Buck Albright and the returning Matty Star (formerly Matty Fitness) after pinning Starr following the Fastball Special.
8. 3XW Heavyweight champion "The Rebel" Jeremy Wyatt and Ring of Honor World champion Tyler Black wrestled to a 30-minute time limit draw in an incredible wrestling match that earned a standing ovation from the crowd after the final bell. The last minute of the match saw referee Jeromy Robb inadvertently get crushed in the corner by both men and fall to the canvas. Black quickly nailed Wyatt with a tremendous reverse brainbuster and covered him for the pin, only there was no ref to count the pin. As Black was checking on the ref in the corner, Wyatt slowly rose to his feet and grabbed Black from behind, slamming him hard with his patented Kansas Tumbleweed (Lightning Spiral) and covering him for the pin with 20 seconds remaining, only for the ref to still be out. Wyatt screamed and pleaded for the ref to get up to no avail and he even counted the pin himself. The time then ran out before a winner could be determined.
Immediately following the match, a furious Wyatt began to assault the referee and stomped on Black some more. Jimmy Rockwell, still feeling the ill effects of being assaulted by Kraig Keesaman earlier in the evening, ran out to the ring and came to Robb and Black's aid, and began brawling with Wyatt. Wyatt was knocked into the grasp of Tyler Black, who hit Wyatt with God's Last Gift. This set up Rockwell flying onto Wyatt with a Rock On Bomb from the top rope. Black took the microphone and proclaimed that next month, Rockwell will be walking out with the 3XW Heavyweight championship!

Kentucky's own Jim "Hillbilly Jim" Morris
spent the 1980's as arguably the second
most popular wrestler in the World Wrestling Federation [Hulk Hogan, of course, being the most popular]. Morris
stood toe-to-toe in countless battles against the biggest legends in the business
- like Andre the Giant, Big John Studd and
Earthquake - to packed arenas and stadiums across the globe. He had his own
action figures, ice cream bars and earned
legions of fans that love him to this day.
Although he's put away his denim overalls,
beat-up hat and horseshoe necklace, Morris
still keeps busy promoting the outdoors and spreading the gospel of Southern rock,
country and bluegrass music. His weekly
radio show, Hillbilly Jim's Moonshine
Matinee on Sirius/XM Satellite Radio's
Outlaw Country Channel combines Southern fried rock and country tunes with
Morris' inimitable radio presence. Each week, Hillbilly is joined by his hunting and
fishing reporter, Uncle Percy Mandoberg for the Woods & Water Report, providing
priceless info for the outdoorsman.
"I believe we serve a major role in being
leading advocates in conservation," says Jim."Because we care about our environment and it's surroundings and we
want to make sure for future generations to come, that they will be able to enjoy
hunting and fishing as we have throughout
history."
Along with his commitment to the outdoors, Morris is a tireless contributor to
charitable organizations such The Make-A-Wish Foundation, Farm Aid, Special Olympics and the MDA. Outdoor Channel is
proud to choose Mud Lick's own Hillbilly Jim as it's Outdoorsman of the Quarter."

"Superfly" Jimmy Snuka is a legend in the pro wrestling business in every sense of the word. Snuka has traveled the world and seen success in both team and singles action.
In tag team action, Snuka formed very successful tandems with Paul Orndorff (NWA World Tag Team Champions), "Freebird" Terry Gordy (NWA National Tag Team Champions), Ray Stevens, Dutch Savage (NWA Pacific Northwest Tag Team Champions) and Bruiser Brody (All Japan Real World Tag League Champions, 1981).
In singles action Snuka had notable success and won many championships in Japan , NWA Pacific Northwest, NWA Mid-Atlantic, NWA Georgia Championship Wrestling and Eastern Championship Wrestling (ECW).
However, Snuka is known most well for his early to mid 80's stint in the World Wrestling Federation/Entertainment (WWF/E). From his early days challenging Bob Backlund for the WWWF Title, to his break-up with Captain Lou Albano, to his legendary feuds with the "Magnificent" Don Muraco and Rowdy Roddy Piper, Snuka's popularity was only rivaled by Hulk Hogan himself in the mid-80s, with whom he helped create a new and increased interest in the world of wrestling that saw the national expansion of WWF/E.
It was Snuka's unique, high risk Superfly Splash off the top rope that ushered in a whole new genre of high flying action into the sport, and it is a style that still thrives today. Snuka was named Best Flying Wrester in 1981 and awarded Best Wrestling Maneuver in 1981 & 1983 by the readers of the Wrestling Observer Newsletter.
But when fans of the Northeast think of Jimmy Snuka, there is ONE image that comes to mind and that is the Superfly Splash of the top of the Steel Cage. Whether he did it in his matches against Bob Backlund or Don Muraco, Jimmy Snuka left an indelible mark on the minds of wrestling fans.
The word legend is used very loosely in wrestling, but no one would dispute its application in regard to Jimmy Snuka. Come out to the TWA on April 11 at the Flyers Skate Zone in Voorhees , New Jersey and re-live the memories with the one and only "Superfly!!!"
Here are some classic moments and matches from the storied career of "Superfly" Jimmy Snuka...
