RPW Deathrite

 

 Karam v. Krimson

This was your typical big guy versus big guy match. Slow with nothing too crazy,though they could be saving stuff for later. Decent match

Karam wins via pinfall
1.5/5

G.G. Jacobs v. Schwartzy

This was for Sure a lighthearted comedy match. Crowd was into it but wasn't much to it.

Schwartzy wins via pinfall
1/5

T.J. Meyer v. MM3

This MM3 guy definitely deserves the hype he is getting and is going to be a star in the future. T.J. Meyer didn't do too much for me but the match was decent.

MM3 wins via pinfall
2/5

Atticus Cogar v. Zach Thomas

Match was way too short and just when it started to get going it was over

Atticus Cogar wins via pinfall
1/5

Otis Cogar v. Dread King Logan

Same story as the last match except this didn't have a finish

No contest
1/5

Mathias Thrasher v. Remington Rhor

Match was pretty cool. As promised alot of glass and that cut on Thrasher's shoulder was very gnarly.

Remington Rhor wins via pinfall
2/5

Hardcore v. Dr. Redacted v. Chuck Stein

What a fucking war! All 3 men bled like motherfuckers,there was a ton of broken glass a barbed wire bat got used this is what death match wrestling is all about. 

Chuck Stein wins via pinfall
3/5

John Wayne Murdoch v. Satu Jinn 2 out of 3 Doors Match

Really cool match. It was an absolute bloodbath and every time JWM is in a death match its magic plus havnt seen Satu Jinn in awhile but he's down a couple lbs and looks good. However only thing that ruined it for me was the draw finish.

No Contest
2.75/5

Micki Knuckles v. Randi West for the RPW Rust Belt Championship

This was a great match. It was supposed to be an electric death match but it wasnt,not sure why exactly. These 2 ladies beat the shit out of eachother and had some scary spots.  In particular the barbed wire Door spot that tire Mickie a new asshole literally.

Randi West retains via submission
2.75/5

ICW NHB 39

 

Akira v. Bobby Beverly

Great way to kick off the show. The Bev started it right off blasting Akira with a tube. They kept this pace up the entire match and both men bled like there was no tomorrow. Great way to start the show.

Akira wins via pinfall
3.25/5

Orin Veidt v. Dr. Redacted

Really looking forward to this. It was supposed to be Redacted v. Slade but slade couldn't make it so Orin Veidt is a more than suitable replacement. And this match delivered. At the beginning of the match when Veidt went for that stalling suplex and that blood was spilling from redacted to the floor onto Veidts pants it was reminiscent of the Age of the Fall angle from ROH back in the day. Alot of the bumps redacted took were very Mick Foley esque and I'm happy Redacted won because that means he will be back and I wanna see him in a higher profile match.

Dr. Redacted wins via pinfall
3.5/5

Danny Demanto v. Jimmy Lloyd

This was decent. Going into this I totally forgot Jimmy Lloyd was a gcw mainstay and Danny doesn't like GCW and this match was a bit slow but plenty violent. After the match Danny squashed the beef with GCW which was silly anyways.

Jimmy Lloyd wins via pinfall
2.5/5

Hoodfoot v. Abdullah Kobayashi

Been excited for this match since it was announced. Japanese Legend v. American Legend. Match was good and what it should have been and that's 2 behemoths having a war. Some of the light tubes were jenky and broke too easy which took away from a few spots but they did a good job bringing Me back each time.

Hoodfoot won via pinfall
2.75/5

Tommy Vendetta v. Matt Tremont

Didn't know what to expect from this match but this was a bloodbath. Pretty good. There was so many tubes that it got hard to see the ring and I love any time there's a Lego spot because those hurt so much.
Matt Tremont wins via pinfall
2.75/5

John Wayne Murdoch v. Eric Ryan

Match was very violent but way too short JWM was being a shit heal so Eric Ryan had to bust out a dog collar. And both men worked hard and bled like crazy but like I said way too short.

John Wayne Murdoch wins via pinfall
2.5/5



Brandon Kirk v. Kasey Catal for the American Death Match Championship

This is probably the best story in death match wrestling going right now and this match was a good blow off. Match was insane and I live on the west side of Chicago and hear alot of domestic disputes. Those are not nearly as violent as this match was. I loved the finish with the 2 doors even though I thought for sure they were gonna botch it but the kirks pulled it off. Great match.

Brandon Kirk wins the American Death Match Championship via pinfall
3.75/5

GCW Amerikaz Most Wanted

 

 Alec Price v. Jordan Oliver v. Nick Wayne v. Jack Cartwheel v. Cole Radrick v. Titus Alexander

Typical gcw scramble. High spot oriented and these guys all know the deal.

Jack Cartwheel wins via pinfall
3/5

Starboy Charlie v. Matt Cardona

Great match.  First off shout out starboy for looking like a Godwin. And the match was definitely big guy little guy stuff which Starboy and Cardona both do well. Crowd got really behind Starboy which made the match more fun and in the end the good guy won. 

Starboy Charlie wins via pinfall
3/5

Sawyer Wreck v. Dark Sheik v. Masha Slamovich

This was a match where they showcased 3 of the most popular women in GCW,however I thought it was too short. I don't know if it was time constraints or not but I wanted more.

Masha Slamovich wins via pinfall
2/5

Kommander, ASF and Arez v. Gringo Loco and Los Vipers

What a crazy match. Let's face it GCW doesn't have bad lucha matches.  Every time you look you see something you've never seen before.

Gringo Loco and Los Vipers win via pinfall
4/5

  Pagano v. Joey Janela for the Extreme Championship

What an awesome match. Pure violence and I hate snakes but it was pretty funny that the snake Joey janela used for his entrance paused the start of the match because the ring crew had to take off the bottom rope to get it out of the ring. But yeah a lot of stiff door shots and that bruise on janelas back looked bad.

Joey Janela retains via pinfall
3.5/5

Jimmy Lloyd v. Willie Mack

This match was decent but it was put in a bad spot to follow the Janela/Pagano match. Both men worked really hard and Willie Mack looked great but this was definitely the catch your breath match.

Willie Mack wins via pinfall
2.25/5

Effy v. Charles Mason

As noted in previous posts I'm not a fan of Charles Mason. Tonight he had a good showing,I'll give that pervert that. Match was getting good until the ending. I'm into Parrow being added to the story but I hate non finishes.

No Contest
2/5

Los Macizos v. RocNes Monsters for the GCW Tag Team Championship

Was nice to see RockNes because they were a mainstay when I first started watching PWG. This match was pretty cool alot of high flying spots and chair and door spots you'd expect out of macizos. 

Los Macizos retain via pinfall
2.75/5

Tony Deppen v. Nick Gage for the GCW Championship

On paper this was a odd mix of styles. You had the king and the God of this shit Nick Gage who is a death match guy and Tony Deppen who is one of the best pure wrestlers going. This meshed very well. Tony Deppen was being a shit head heel and the crowd loved it when Gage would do anything to him. They managed to get the pizza cutter spot in and the doors wouldn't cooperate with them breaking the doors but it didn't take away from the Match at all.

Nick Gage retains via pinfall
3.75/5

ICW NHB Ultraviolent Vortex

 

Everything from here on out Is a spoiler(hence the name of the show) 

Akira v. Marcus Mathers 

Of course Akira starts Its ICW. And I did not know that Mathers did death match stuff but now I do. That guys head was going like a faucet. They didn't do alot of death match stuff other than that but they had a really good wrestling match and utilized the chains really good which I had my doubts could be done there but i was proven wrong twice in this match. 

Akira wins via pinfall 

3/5 

Manders v. Crowbar for the H2O Championship 

This match wasn't for me. It was very slow and not too much action. They both tried really hard but it just didn't click for me. 

Manders retained via pinfall

2/5 

Deklan Grant v. Orin Veidt 

This was a great match. I only saw a bit of Grant in H2O and he took advantage at his first go in ICW. Veidt is always great and It seems like I don't see enough of him for some reason. But this match had alot of tubes,a scary sounding headbutt and a sick assault driver finish. 

Orin Veidt wins via pinfall

3.75/5 

MM3 v. Tommy Vendetta 

Good match. I think I saw MM3 over the summer at ICW but don't remember him,I see there's a lot of buzz on MM3 and I get it now. Kid can go and I would love to see him in a regular match because I think he would do well there too. Tommy Vendetta was great as usual too. Two Michigan boys tore it up. 

Tommy Vendetta wins via pinfall 

2.75/5 

Kristian Ross v. Chris Bradley 

Per the last 2 this was a hoss fight. 2 big boys just beating the shit out of eachother. But honestly I wanna see these 2 mix it up a bit more with other people. 

Kristian Ross wins via pinfall

2.5/5 

Low Life Louie v. Danny Demanto 

Really fun match. I know he's been around forever but I'm new to this and haven't seen too much of Louie stuff. But him and Danny had a really fun match. I even really enjoyed the interaction between Louie son and Mittens. 

Danny Demanto wins via pinfall

2.5/5 

Casanova Valentine v. Abdullah Kobayashi v. John Wayne Murdoch v. Matt Tremont 

How can I describe this match other than a fucking war between present and past legends? Violence, chaos and everything wrestling should be. Gnarly ass spot where jwm almost burnt down the h2o center with a flaming light tube and that fork in the head spot was sick as well. 

Abdullah Kobayashi wins via pinfall

4.75/5

XPW Merry Christmas

 

Brawlin Bo Cooper v. Terex v. Judge Joe Dredd

This match was decent. Very violent hoss fight to open up the night. Slow in certain parts but all the men here are 300 plus pounds so can't really expect more.

Brawlin Bo Cooper wins via pinfall
2/5

Juventud Guerrera v. Willie Mack

I wouldn't necessarily say this match was good but very entertaining.  Juvi's heel promo at the beginning was top notch. And Mack was decent in this but too short and I didn't like the finish.

Juventud Guerrera wins via disqualification

1/5

Vinnie Massaro v. Damian 666 v. Psychosis

Very short match,too short in my opinion. Only thing that stood out to me was how good Psychosis still is. Other than that the match didn't do anything for me.

Psychosis wins via pinfall
1/5

Matt Cross v. Bestia 666

Very good match. Alot of action and this again was a victim of time constraints but both men go their shit in.

Matt Cross won via pinfall
2.75/5

Kat Martini v. Biggie Biggs for the Television Championship
It was a squash match. Kick to the nuts and done

Kat Martini retains via pinfall
0/5

Maga Butcher v. Hard Body

Don't wanna turn this political so I will just say that I do not like Necros current gimmick or that story at all. I could be being worked but don't believe that just yet. However I will be fair and saying that this was a great match. Glad Necro beat cancer and he can still go. And that Hard Body can take a beating Ala Spike Dudley. They used the shit out of the guard rail and even the manager spots were entertaining.

Maga Butcher wins via pinfall
3/5

Ciclope v. Shlak for the King of the Death Match Championship

Man what a match. The ring fit the Christmas decorations after the match because there was so much broken glass it looked like a blizzard. For real that made the alley behind me look clean and they were both rolling around in it. Shlak had a vagina under his arm it looked like. This was a fucking war!

Shlak retains via pinfall
3.5/5

Lindsay Snow v. Ludark Shaitan v. Taya Valkarie for the Women's Championship

This match was decent. Very violent and Lindsey snow bled buckets. However after Ludark eliminated Lindsey it got a little sloppy but still enjoyable. 

Ludark Shaitan wins via last eliminating Taya Valkyrie to become the new XPW Women's Champion
2.5/5

Masada v. Drake Younger for the XPW Championship

It was supposed to be Masada v. Vampiro but Vampiro couldn't make it so Drake Younger stepped in. Pretty good match and had all the violence you would expect out of these 2. Those Drake landings that got hit were brutal as were the classic Masada Skewer spots.

Masada retains via pinfall
2.75/5

GCW One Afternoon Only

 

Nick Gage opened the show and him and Emil Jay opening the show with no profanity was hallarious 

Starboy Charlie v. Jeffrey John 

So it was supposed to be Starboy Charlie v. Nick Wayne but card is subject to change. Match was ok for it being last minute not much to say about it 

Starboy Charlie wins via submission

1.75/5 

Axton Ray v. AJ Gray 

Really good hard hitting match. Glad to see Aj back in the mix and Axton Ray has really been impressing me on the undercard of these shows. 

AJ Gray wins via pinfall

2.5/5 

Manders v. Jordan Oliver 

Great hard hitting action, Jordan Oliver was on point as usual and he even got Manders to step up his game. 

Jordan Oliver wins via pinfall

2.75/5 

Infa-red and Bang Bros v. Second Gear Crew,Allie Katch and Sawyer Wreck 

What a match, never seen infa-red before but need to see more of there stuff and love Bang Bros from when I saw them in Freelance. Big fan of SGC,Allie is good and love Sawyer so this had the ingredients for a great match.  They couldn't really do the violence SGC usually does but they busted out the chairs and doors and had alot of high flying action.

Second Gear Crew,Allie Katch and Sawyer Wreck win via pinfall

3/5 

Shane Mercer v. Jack Cartwheel 

This match was awesome. Mercer got all his power spots in and has really been impressing me more and more. Mercer is starting to remind me of Mike Awesome for some reason. Jack Cartwheel is athletic as fuck and that balcony flip was amazing. 

Shane Mercer wins via submission 

3/5 

Effy v. Cole Radrick 

Match was getting good til that goddamn pervert Charles Mason ruined it. 

No contest 

2/5 

Los Macizos and Jimmy Lloyd v. The Rejects and Mad Man Pondo 

Really good match. I was wondering how this was gonna work with the regulations in place for tonight's show but they got to do all the death match stuff and Mad Man Pondo looked great. Even had a 2 Tuff Tony appearance. 

The Rejects and Mad Man Pondo win via pinfall

3.75/5 

Billie Starkz v. Tony Deppen 

Match was good. The crowd really loved Billie and Deppen is great as a heel. 

Tony Deppen wins via submission 

2.75/5

GCW Wasted Time

 

Starboy Charlie v. Jack Cartwheel

What a great match. Starboy is an appropriate name for Starboy Charlie. He's another underage wrestler that's already amazing. And Jack Cartwheel needs to put football aside and do this because he's not bad either

Starboy Charlie wins via submission
3/5

Bang Bros v. Shane Mercer and Axton Ray

Another banger of a match. Bang Bros I see alot at freelance and someone needs to sign them. They always steel the show and elevate who their in the ring with. Mercer and Axton are a thrown together team but this could go somewhere. 2 genetic freaks tearing it up,let's do this!

Shane Mercer and Axton Ray win via pinfall
3/5

Sawyer Wreck v. Mad Man Pondo

This was a really fun match. Pondo as a hell is amazing and Sawyer Wreck is so good. We got some staple guns, the Pondo saw blade knives fun stuff.

Sawyer Wreck wins via pinfall
3.75/5



  Second Gear Crew v. Los Macizos v. Sandman and 2 Cold Scorpio for the GCW Tag Team Championship

Match was fun but not much substance wise. All the people involved just got in played the hits and got out. Though it was great to see Sandmans entrance.

Los Macizos retain via pinfall
2.5/5

Jimmy Lloyd v. Jake Lander

This match was decent. Just a way to fill the card seems like

Jimmy Lloyd wins via pinfall

2.25/5

Effy v. John Wayne Murdoch

Pretty good match. I'll tell you what though I would never willfully let someone stick a Skewer in my nutsack so for that Effy is a man's man.

Effy wins via pinfall 2.25/5
Tony Deppen v. Jordan Oliver

2 of the best pure wrestlers GCW has on there roster and you put them in a match so or coarse it's gonna be good. Tony Deppen needs to be on TV somewhere. Jordan Oliver looks up to Trent Acid and I think that's a fare comparison but Oliver is not on Trents level. He passed Trent as far as im concerned. 

Tony Deppen wins via submission
3.25/5

Nick Gage v. Cole Radrick for the GCW championship

The King lives! Loved this match Raddy Daddy Is always great and this is the best I've seen the king since his return from injury. Both killed eachother with those light tube spots and the vader bomb through the glass and light tubes for the finish(chef's kiss)
Nick Gage retains via pinfall
3.5/5

Reaper Pro:Ready To Die

 

Checking this out because the ICW shows in Austrailia were sick and I know New Zealand isn't Austrailia but it's alot of crossover talent.

Joel Bateman v. Just Plain Evil in a no rope barbed wire match

Really good match to kick off this tournament. Bateman is the best thing going in Australia and he brought his A game here. This was my first time seeing JPE and she is scary,like evil grandma scary. She got her hand cut open in a barbed wire spot and I've never seen a hand bleed that much.

Joel Bateman advances via pinfall
3.25/5

Sister Olivia and James Shaw v. Frankie Quinn and Spartan

Matched seems like it served its purpose and brought the crowd down a bit before more fuckery. 

Frankie Quinn and Spartan won via pinfall
0.25/5

Charbydis v. Jordan Samson v. JT Hollow In a fans bring the weapons staple gun madness match

Match was fun but I didn't like the rules.  You win by stapling 5 letters onto someone? Really weird to me.

Jordan Samson advanced by winning and JT Hollow advanced by not getting the letters stapled to him?
2.5/5

York v. Vic Craig in a Crate Day Death Match

I'm a dumb fucking American so I have no idea what a crate day is. What I do know is this was a hell of a match.  Tiki torches, beer bottles skinny tubes oh my!. York is an ignorant beast and I like what I saw from Vic Craig.

Vic Craig advances via pinfall
3.5/5

Horus v. Callen Butcher in a light tubes and gusset plate match

This match was decent. Alot of tubes as per advertisement but not really any gusset plates.  We did get the flaming knee spot and luckily Horus was able to put it out.

Callen Butcher advanced via pinfall
2.5/5

Jordan Samson v. Vic Craig in a fish and chips death match

What an amazing match. Wrestling a death match without shoes is bad enough but those glass spots on the feet. Oof. Not to mention them making eachother bleed and dumping lemon juice and vinegar on eachother. And that flaming door spot at the end looked tough but got extinguished quick.

Vic Craig advances via pinfall
3.5/5


JT Hollow v. Callen Butcher v. Joel Bateman

Wasn't much to the match JT Hollow just got a roll up.

JT Hollow advances via pinfall
0/5

Kid Nova v. Tommy Fusion

We had some wrestling to bring it down for the main event. Match was ok basically your typical indie match.

Kid Nova won via pinfall
1/5

Vic Craig v. JT Hollow In the ready to die finals

This match was really good too. They let the new Zealand talent close out the show which I like and these guys gave it there all in the finals. Especially liked the spot with the board and the plugged in light tubes. I hope this tradition continues there because New Zealand has a good thing going with thus tournament.

Vic Craig wins via pinfall
3/5
