GCW:Mastermind 2023

 

Hunter Drake v. Cole Radrick

This was a good opener. Hunter Drake showed me something between this match and the balcony dive the day before. Cole Radrick was acting heelish again here too so I wonder what that's leading to.

Cole Radrick wins via pinfall
2.75/5

Terry Yaki v. Alec Price

I'm a fan of both of these guys but for some reason that I can't put my finger on it just wasn't clicking for me.

Alec Price wins via pinfall
2.25/5

Effy v. Rina Yamashita
I enjoyed this match. Both people were very entertaining, especially with the nutshot spot and we got some stiff suplexes onto chairs plus Effy speared Rina through a door.

Rina Yamashita wins via pinfall
3/5

Los Macizos and Jimmy Lloyd v. Nick Gage, Jordan Oliver, and Action Mike Jackson

I didn't know what to expect going into this but this was an entertaining match.  I had a lot of fun watching this and Mike Jackson doing a table spot for the finish was amazing.

Nick Gage, Jordan Oliver, and Action Mike Jackson win via pinfall
2.75/5

John Wayne Murdoch v. Sawyer Wreck

You know when the match starts with someone being choked and slammed through a door with mouse traps the match is going to be good. This was indeed a great match we had skewers being shoved into the behind of Sawyer, A pretty gnarly super plex JWM gave Sawyer onto a pile of gusset plates and both combatants were bleeding what more could you want?

Sawyer Wreck wins via pinfall
3.5/5

Team GCW v. Team New South

There wasn't too much to this match but it served its purpose of getting everyone who is not familiar with the New South crew familiar with them for the next show.

Team New South wins via pinfall
2/5
Blake Christian defends the GCW Championship against Adam Priest

I didn't know how the dynamic of this match was going to go because both men are mega heels. They figured it out though and had a good match. Priest played a baby face here which was good but not nearly as good as his heel work. This was just a hard-hitting match which was very reminiscent of the early Ring of Honor days. and a nice change of pace on the show.

Blake Christian retains via pinfall
2.75/5

Tank v. Joey Janela

I enjoyed this match. Tank has been killing it in ICW so it's cool to see him gate a chance elsewhere.  Joey Janela took a bump onto a shopping cart which was cool and the finish was Joey Janela giving Tank three double stomps onto doors.

Joey Janela wins via pinfall
2.75/5

Circle 6: Clean My Wounds 2023

 

Dr. Redacted v. MM3

This would have been a good match except a drunken fan took everyone out of it. Props to Lo for standing up for herself. And my apologies to the athletes involved, please come back and run this back.

Dr. Redacted wins via pinfall
2.75/5

Laynie Luck, GPA and Shaheem Ali v. Forza

This match served its purpose of getting Forza over to look like a force. Good to see Freelance standouts GPA and Laynie Luck on this show too.

Forza wins via pinfall
2/5

Tommy Vendetta v. Otis Cogar in a Chicago Street Fight

This was a pretty fun match. Both men brawled all over Reggie. We had Legos, Otis cutting up Tommy, and chair shots that would even make Sabu cringe.


Tommy Vendetta wins via pinfall
2.5/5

Remington Rhor v. Hoodfoot in a Doorway to Hell Match

This was a great match and we had a lot of cool stuff in it. They got creative with the doors in this and we had a door with poppers on it and the finish was a door with bricks on it, fuck that looked like it hurt. And shout out to Remington Rhor because he showed what he was about and that you need to be paying attention to him. Because a death match star was made in this match.

Hoodfoot wins via pinfall
3/5

Akira v. AJ Gray in a Teapei Death Match

I'm not usually a fan of Taipei Death Matches but this one was amazing. These two guys did more than just punch each other with glass but just brawled throughout the arena and had a hard-hitting wrestling match. They even dumped the glass in the ring and did spots on that.

AJ Gray wins via pinfall
3.75/5

Vinnie Massaro defends the Circle 6 Championship against Atticus Cogar.

Even though Vinnie Massaro is not the Circle 6 Champion he defended the title anyways. This Vinnie Massaro is a very good heel and he and Atticus Cogar had a very good straight-up match. We did get Atticus's signature skewer spot but other than that it was a straight match and Atticus hung well in it.

Does Vinnie Massaro retain? Via pinfall
3/5

Casanova Valentine v. Spyder Nate Webb in a No-Ring Match

This was Marcus Crane's venue to run out of so this match was a tribute to him. Marcus would have been proud of both men and this was a lot of fun with a lot of light tubes being broken.

Casanova Valentine wins via pinfall
2.75/5


Orin Veidt v Bobby Beverly

This was so fucking good, as a grand finale they took the canvas off of the ring and put barbed wire and light tubes on the ropes. We had glass panels being broken, and both men brawling through the crowd breaking light tubes on each other.  And then the damnedest spot I have ever seen live. Orin Veidt moved the boards of the ring, set up a pane of glass in the frame, and did an assault driver to Bobby Beverley through it. And that wasn't even the finish! Great match and once this is available if you don't watch this I feel sorry for you.

Bobby Beverly wins via pinfall
5/5

GCW:Ride or Die 2023

Bang Bros v. Cole Radrick and Alec Price

This was a good way to start the show. This was my first time seeing Alec Price live and in living color and he's got good charisma. Cole Radrick being a heel and engaging with the crowd that way was great and I am really happy that local standouts are getting a chance in a promotion like gcw.

Bang bros via pinfall
2.75

Arez v. Jack Cartwheel

I saw Arez live but he is really good to live as well. Another thing I take for granted on TV is how high Jack Carthweel can jump. This was a great match, very lucha-influenced and very fun.

Jack Cartwheel wins via pinfall
3/5

Robert Anthony v. Lufisto

I didn't hear the commentary so I'm not sure what happened to Steph DeLander but Robert Anthony was good. Replacement and his disparaging LuFisto and the crowd before the match were very entertaining. Im loving the resurgence of LuFisto too. She killed it in the Death Matches in ICW last weekend and she killed it in a straight-up match this night in gcw.

LuFisto wins via pinfall
2.5/5

Jordan Oliver defends the JCW Championship against Komander

This match was so good. This was a clash of styles between the Technician in Jordan Oliver and the high flyer in Komander but these guys made this gel well. Jordan Oliver has been improving in his technical skills as I've documented and now his striking game has stepped up. Komander got his signature rope walking spots which was a treat to see live.

Jordan Oliver retains via pinfall
3.5/5

Los Macizos and Rina Yamashita v. The Rejects and Manders

The whole match was an all-out brawl throughout the arena and I loved it. There is no deathmatch at Thalia Hall but we still got hard-ass chair shots and plenty of doors.

Los Macizos and Rina Yamashita win via pinfall
3/5

Hunter Drake v. Teri Yaki v. Bobby Flaco v. Kinzie Page v. Starboy Charlie v. Jimmy Lloyd

Here we are with another GCW scramble but they got to showcase a lot of the southern talent and I got to see balcony dives so I'm ok with it.

Starboy Charlie wins via pinfall
3/5

Bussy v. Sawyer Wreck and Joey Janela

This was a pretty fun match but this ended up being hindered by the finish. It was supposed to be Joey Janela getting speared through a door by Allie Katch but the door didn't break and Sawyer was supposed to Chokeslam Effy through a door but, I don't know if someone slipped or there was a timing issue but they came short of the door. Anyways fun match minus the finish

Sawyer and Joey via pinfall
2.75/5

El Hijo De Vikingo v. Metalik

We had a sick Lucha Libre match until Blake Christian, that no good son of a bitch fucked it up and attacked both men!

No Contest
4.5/5


Blake Christian defends the GCW Championship against Gringo Loco

The hometown crowd was really into Gringo Loco and Blake Christian is such a shit heel it was a very easy story to follow. The hope spots got everyone to jump up and the false finish where Gringo got the pin but Blake had his foot on the rope and had the crowd get out of their seats. In the end, Blake Christian got the win.


Blake Christian retains via pin
4/5

 

GCW:Thank Me Later 2023

Cole Radrick v. Starboy Charlie

This was a good match. I'm a fan of both individuals but nothing stood out to me. 

Starboy Charlie wins via pinfall
2.5/5

Kevin Knight v. Alec Price

Kevin Knight has come a long way since I last saw him wrestle. The last time I saw him was on a NJPW strong show and he didn't stand out to me but he got good. Alec Price was a great opponent for Kevin Knight and this was a good match.

Kevin Knight wins via pinfall
2.75/5

Los Macizos v. Joey Janela and Sawyer Wreck
Pure insanity! This was a really fun match to watch. Los Macizos delivered some stiff headshots. There was a spot where Joey Janela went climbing a ladder, got pushed off, and crotched himself on the ropes, and this match just had a lot of good brawling action.

Sawyer Wreck and Joey Janela win via pinfall
3.5/5

Jimmy Lloyd v. Santana Jackson

This was a fun match to showcase Santans Jackson. He does a Micheal Jackson gimmick and I like his finish. Jackson's finish is a springboard Canadian destroyer.

Santana Jackson wins via pinfall
2.75/5

Kevin Blackwood v. Jack Cartwheel v. Titus Alexander
This was a 3-way between 3 of the west coast's finest. I liked this match. It was good to see Kevin Blackwood again. Always a treat to see what mind-blowing stuff Jack Cartwheel does. And this year every time I see Titus Alexander he keeps improving in the ring.

Jack Cartwheel wins via pinfall
3.25

Maki Itoh v. Rina Yamashita

Maki is getting into this MDK gimmick and I'm here for it. Maki had charisma before but Nick Gage brought it to another level. She was even cutting up Rina with a pizza cutter. The match was really good. Rina is another one of my favorites right now as well because of the caliber of matches she's been having and I'm glad I've got to see so much of her lately. 


Rina Yamashita wins via pinfall
3.75/5

Kenny King v. Effy

Before I start this review during the entrances I think some dipshit yelled a homophobic slur at Effy. I couldn't hear what was said so I can't confirm that's what happened but if it was this guy was rightfully removed and hopefully banned from all shows.  There's no place for that in, not just wrestling but the world. My apologies to Effy and Kenny King but this took me out of this match and I hope you can run this one back with fewer dumb fucks next time.

Effy wins via pinfall
1.75/5

Nick Gage v. Zack Sabre Jr

I enjoyed this match because it was different. On paper this was a real clash of styles, ZSJ is a technician and Nick Gage is the king of death match. However, this meshed well. Gage proved that death match guys can work a straight match and Zack Sabre Jr. Took a backdrop onto tacks. Nick Gage piledriving ZSJ onto a pile of chairs was a nice bonus as well.

Zack Sabre Jr wins via submission
4/5
 

ICW NHB 48

Eric Ryan  v. Tommy Vendetta

When I got to the venue and saw all the Legos in the ring I knew I was in for a good fight. This match was fun and had a lot of suplexes on Legos. Eric Ryan was also bleeding buckets from his head so that was great as well.

Tommy Vendetta wins via pinfall
3.25/5

LuFisto v. Max The Impaler

LuFisto making a return to death match wrestling this weekend was as great as she is. This was a fun match as well and to me, the most entertaining part of the match was LuFisto begging off of Max The Impaler the whole time.

Max The Impaler wins via pinfall
3.25/5

Dr redacted v. Mickie Knuckles

I enjoyed this match too. We had an all-out brawl throughout the whole Berwyn Eagles Club. Dr. Redacted and Mickie Knuckles's spot-on commentary was awesome as well and I want to go to IWTV to hear exactly what was said.

Dr. Redacted wins via pinfall
4.25/5

Kirks v. Krule

Well, the end of the match was crazy but I hate no finishes. The story is set up is very compelling so I can't say that bad of stuff about it. The story of the match was about Brandon trying to fight off Krule physically while Kasey was manipulating Krule mentally. The match was thrown out when Brandon bludgeoned Krule with a chair then Krule woke up and destroyed the ring crew. Mittens and the Blairs didn't do anything to deserve that they were just doing their job!

No contest

2.5/5

Bobby Beverly v. Tank

This was a good match. It was cool to see the Tank/Rev act live and The Bev just kills people with those tube shots.

2.5/5

Reed Bentley v. Abdullah Kobayashi

This was fucking awesome and a great way to send Abdullah out. Kobayashi got all of his signature spots in and Reed Bentley just left a pool of blood in that ring after the match. I loved this. After each Kobayashi matches this weekend he gave a speech about how he loved America and he loved deep-dish pizza, well Kobayashi we love you. So keep doing what you do and I hope to see you live again someday.


Abdullah Kobayashi wins via pinfall
4/5

Hoodfoot defends the American Death Match Championship against John Wayne Murdoch

This match was what you would have expected. Two top-caliber death match wrestlers doing what they do best. There was an interruption with the Cogars throwing Circle 6 flyers during the main and clearing the locker room so I'm interested to see where this is going but once the match got back going it was just more brutality. I mean look at Hoodfoot's back after the match and see how much glass was in it. Good lord.

Hoodfoot retains via pinfall
3.75/5

 

RPW: Take As Needed For Pain

 

Midwest Scum defends the RPW Tag Team Championship against The Bruisers

I was a little late to this but here we go, we got a long day of wrestling. I liked this match. We had a brutal hoss fight to kick things off and even some tables, not a door, tables

Midwest Scum retains via pinfall
2.5/5

Eric Dillinger v. Otis Cogar

First off I have to say this, during a tube spot some shrapnel went into the crowd and hit a fan in the face. This is always unfortunate to see so if you're in the front row, I'm guilty of this too but keep your head on the action and off the phone because you never know when you'll have to move. That said, this was a really fun match. Eric Dillinger took so many tube shots that his back was just fucked. And I need to check out more Eric Dillinger.

Otis Cogar wins via pinfall
3.5/5

Dr. Redacted v. Bobby Beverly

This was a really fun match. This looked like an actual fight and these two maniacs were brawling all over the building with no regard for their own or anybody else's safety.

Dr. Redacted wins via pinfall
2.75/5

Hoodfoot v. Satu Jinn

This was a fucking hoss war. Good match with so much glass in the ring after it looked like a snowstorm had come through the Berwyn Eagles Club and both men were covered in blood, what more could you want?

Hoodfoot wins via pinfall
2.75/5

Mickie Knuckles v. Reed Bentley v. Scwarzy

This was a match to determine the inaugural RPW Kamazaze Championship. This was a fun match. Scwartzy was entertaining as always and I hope he didn't want any children after Mickie Knuckles used a barbed wire bat on his dick. Didn't call Scwartzy winning but I'm interested to see where this goes.

Schwatzy wins via submission
2.5/5



Randi West defends the RPW Rust Belt Championship against Remington Rhor.

This was a very brutal, very bloody fight. Just the way I like it. Remington used a tube in Randi's mouth. And this was just good I don't even have the words to describe it, just watch it.


Randi West retains via pinfall
3/5

John Wayne Murdoch v. Tommy Vendetta v. Abdullah Kobayashi v. Atticus Cogar

This was an even crazier brawl throughout the building. This was a really good match and worth the price of admission alone. It was already an honor to see Kobayashi live but for him to have this caliber of a match was even more of a treat. I was so happy when this was over.

Abdul Kobayashi wins via pinfall
3.25/5

ICW NHB 47

 This is the first review I was live at for a show so I'm excited about this.

Spyder Nate Webb v. Tommy Vendetta

Even though I was stoked to get to see Spyder Nate Webb live this match didn't do it for me. A lot of comedy started this off and this was very slow moving.

Tommy Vendetta wins via pinfall
1.75


 

Satu Jinn v. Dr. Redacted

Dr. Redacted liked my Black My Heart shirt so shout out to him for knowing what's cool. This was a very violent match, and very good. We got our first tubes of the weekend, Dr. Redacted got his signature dive off the ring with the tubes, and Satu Jinn put Dr. Redacted through a barbed wire board.

Dr. Redacted wins via pinfall
2.75


Bobby Beverly v. Eric Ryan

I had high expectations for the battle of 44OH and this match did not disappoint, this was short but brutal. These hit each other with the light tubes very hard and The Bev was bleeding profusely.  Great shit and this just goes to show you nobody fights like family.

Bobby Beverly wins via pinfall
3/5


Shazza McKenzie v. Danny Demanto
From what I understand, and I could be wrong but this is Shazza McKenzie's first deathmatch, and she needs to keep doing them. Danny was great in bringing out the best in her and she is one tough lady. In the match, Shazza was even asking where the tubes were and she took a door with soda cans on it like a champ. Great stuff, Danny if you read this please keep booking her.

Shazza McKenzie submission
2.75/5

The Rejects v. Mickie Knuckles and LuFisto

This match was so fucking good. These four people beat the everliving hell out of each other I mean tubes, stiff chair shots, and an all-out brawl throughout the arena. This is just hard to describe just how chaotic this match was but if you're on the fence about an IWTV subscription get one just to watch this match. Also props to Lufisto for bleeding as much as she did. This is why she's an all-time great.

The Rejects win via pinfall
4/5

Hoodfoot defends the ICW American Death Match Championship against Tank, Abdullah Kobayashi, and Krule

This match had more beef in it than a Portillo's sandwich. Like the match before this, there was just an all-out brawl throughout the arena. So many light tubes were used in this match,  and there was a pretty sick spot where Abdullah through Krule off of the stage through a pane of glass. It was an honor to see Abdullah Kobayashi live. W
Amazing match

Hoodfoot retains via pinfall
4/5

GCW:Cage of Survival 2

 Maki Itoh v. Janai Kai 

We got to see Maki so that was a treat. Even though this was more or less a squash match.  

Maki Itoh wins via pinfall

1.25/5

Matt Cardona and Steph DeLander v. The Kirks 

Matt Cardona is a great time are qn even greater time in Atlantic city,just him pissing the crowd off. This match was a lot of fun with Cardona being a dick head, Steph being a bitch and the Kirks being amazing baby faces. To me it was the crowd that made this match and rode the fuck out of Cardona.

Matt Cardona and Steph DeLander win via pinfall 

3/5

Ninja Mack v. El Hijo De Vikingo 

I forgot what little I knew about physics during this match. Both men did a great lucha style match and did all the death defying stunts you would expect. I swear every time I watch Vikingk I see something I've never seen before. 

El Hijo De Vikingo wins via pinfall 

3.25/5

Jimmy Lloyd, Jack Cartwheel and Alec Price v. Speedball Mike Bailey and East West Express 

On paper when the shows were announced I was the least excited for this match. Man was I a fucking idiot. I don't know how I doubted this match given who is in it and Wow!!! I just saw the future of wrestling. 

Speedball Mike Bailey and East West Express via pinfall

5/5

Toru Suiguira and Tomoya Hirota v. Los Macizos 

This match was insane. Props to Miedo Extremo for wrestling with an injured shoulder and we got a ton of tubes and even a jigsaw in this one. 

Los Macizos win via pinfall

3/5

After the match The Freedoms contingent looked as if they wanted to shake Macizos hands after but several GCW wrestlers came out and Jumped the Freedoms contingent and told them to watch themselves in Japan

El Desperado v. Joey Janela 

Even though this was a last minute surprise this match was really good. Even though Desperado was wearing a mask he bled so much. Joey Janela did a beautiful double stomp off of a ladder through a door bridge with barbed wire on it. Yes it is as crazy as it sounds. Great stuff. 

El Desperado wins via pinfall

4.5/5

Masha Slamovich v. Rina Yamashita In Cage of Survival for the GCW Championship 

This match got me pumped when Rina won yesterday and started off a but sloppy,mainly the glass not breaking but once this got going violence galore,tubes of coarse,Rina took a bump onto a barbed wire net and Masha delivered a great sidewalk slam through a pile or doors off the scaffold,however.... that no good,rat bastard,son of a bitch Blake Christian cashed in his ring he won Mania weekend and that place wanted to explode. Fuck you Blake Christian for real. 

Blake Christian wins the GCW Championship by pinfall

4.25/5

JCW:After Hours 3

Jordan Oliver defends the JCW Championship against Bam Sullivan 

In this match I was really impressed at how good Jordan Oliver's technical skills are getting. And I didn't know that Bam Sullivan could actually wrestle like that. This was a decent match but you can tell the crowd is tired. 

Jordan Oliver retains via submission 

2.25/5

Jack Cartwheel v. Manders

This was a good match. The things Jack Cartwheel can do physically impress the hell out of me and Manders was going stiff in this match and I would like to see more of that. 

Manders wins via pinfall 

2.25/5

CPA v. Charles Mason 

CPA's character doesn't really do anything for me. As for Charles Mason I'm still not really a fan of him but I do have to admit his matches have been good lately. This match was boring to me though. I don't know why I just wasn't into it. 

Charles Mason wins via submission 

Alec Price defends the Battle Bowl Ring against Jimmy Lloyd 

This was a great fast paced match. How is Alec Price not signed somewhere? And Jimmy Lloyd is the franchise of GCW. 

Alec Price retains the Battle Bowl Ring 

3/5

Young Dumb N Broke v. Yokai v. The Mane Event v. Wasted Youth

This was a really good match. All four teams have a bright future ahead of them. This was just a nice little spot fest to showcase everything these guys can Do.

Wasted Youth win via pinfall

3.5/5

Low Life Louie v. Brandon Kirk v. Akira

Having Akira get added to this was a nice surprise. The match itself was good but I was tired watching at home and I'm sure everyone there was in rougher shape than I was. 

Low Life Louie wins via pinfall

2.5/5

 

GCW:Tournament of Survival 8

 

Very nice open to the show with Nick Gage greeting everyone as only the king does and trading out blows with the man,the myth the legend John Zandig,thats the death match answer to the Wrestlemania 30 open.

Ciclope v. Green Phantom v. Miedo Extremo

We kicked the show off with in all honesty the tournament match I was least looking forward to. Not because of whose in it but because of how loaded this tournament is. This match was a bit sloppy at times but had some really cool stuff like ciclope doing a senton through glass then a frog splash through glass. I thoroughly enjoyed it though.

Ciclope advances via pinfall
2.25/5

Tomoya Hirota v. Toru Suiguira v. Joey Janela

I am pumped after this match. These guys beat the ever living fuck out of eachother. Forget about all the fuckery these guys all dud stiff ass strikes. We had chair shots Ala Mike Awesome and Masato Tanaka.  The double stomp Joey Janela did to Hirota through the tube cabin and doors was insane. Holy shit what a good match.

Toru Suiguira advances via pinfall

El Desperado v. John Wayne Murdoch v. Matt Tremont

This was a decent match. A little slow for my liking though.  The spot with John Wayne Murdoch doing a destroyer through a glass bridge was cool. And the barbed wire net spot Matt Tremont took was cool.

John Wayne Murdoch advances
2.5/5

Kasey Kirk v. Sawyer Wreck v. Rina Yamashita

My expectations were very high for this match. In March Kasey Kirk and Rina Yamashita was a match of the year candidate and I love me some Sawyer Wreck.  But I think this match was good but coulda been better.  It was kinda slow and I wanted more violence than just tube shots. The spot where Sawyer threw Kasey and Rina through the glass outside was cool but maybe my expectations were too high.

Rina Yamashita advances via pinfall
2.75/5

Alec Price v. Gringo Loco v. Jack Cartwheel v. Blake Christian

Usually I'm bored with GCW scrambles but this was very good. It was the Blake Christian being an asshole show featuring 3 great athletes.

Blake Christian wins via pinfall
3.75/5

John Wayne Murdoch v. Ciclope

This was pretty brutal. Really good stuff from two great guys. No one swings a tube harder than John Wayne Murdoch and Ciclope should get a purple heart for some of the bumps he's taking through panes of glass tonight.

John Wayne Murdoch advances via submission
2.75/5

Toru Suiguira v. Rina Yamashita

This was amazing. Suiguira hits so hard and now I get what all the hype is on him now. GCW,if you read this keep booking this guy. Rina showed everyone why she is the death match amazon.  That shot to the nuts with tubes over Suiguiras nether regions and her busting the chair on him was a certified method of birth control. Great stuff and this got me pumped for the finals

Rina Yamashita advances via pinfall
4/5

John Wayne Murdoch v. Rina Yamashita

This was a really good way to end the tournament. John Wayne Murdoch put alot of heat on Rina by just butchering her with light tubes but her come backs were great. The spot where she did the splash off the scaffold onto Murdoch I thought was it. In the end the right person won and I can't wait for tomorrow.
Rina Yamashita wins Tournament of survival via pinfall
3.75/5

After the match Suiguira and Hirota came out and attacked everyone and a Masked man who seemingly came out to help,Rina attacked Rina and it was Jun Fucking Kasai!!!

DMDU:2nd Anniversary

 

DMDU is a Australian promotion I've been meaning to check out forever so this seemed like a good way to start.

Murdoch v. Everett Connors

This was a very good match. Since I'm watching a different promotion I wasn't too familiar with Murdoch but he was great here and Everett Connors was a great opponent for him. Good fast paced action to open the show up

Murdoch wins via pinfall
3.25/5

Kid Valiant v. Richelle Rogue

This was more or less a squash match. The story was Kid Valiant refused to fight back so Richelle Rogue beat the shit out of him.

Richelle Rogue wins via pinfall
1.25/5

West Melbourne Rednecks v. Passion v. B-Squared

Just when the match got going Damian Rivers layed out everyone with a chair

No Contest
0.75/5

Damian Rivers v. Cracker Jack

This match as well was interupted but at least I got to see someone get a staple gun to the nuts

No Contest

0.25/5

Blood Fighter v. Blackroach Reserve

Our first death match of the night and it delivered.  The sound that cricket bat made when it hit Joel Bateman was crazy. I loved the spot where both teams jammed gusset plates into their partners heads and whatever that powder that Joel Bateman said was worse than breathing in light tube dust was a nice touch.  The finish saw Joey Bateman taking a face first bump into barbed wire. Amazing

Blackroach Reserve win via pinfall
4.5/5

Big Dude Energy Defend that DMDU Tag Team Championship against Matt Hayter and Tarlee

I understand why this match was in this position,however it did not do it for me. This was definitely more of a comedy match to lighten up the room after seeing that death match before.

Big Dude Energy retain via pinfall
1.25/5

Gore defends the DMDU Championship against Tyson Reed

I definitely get why these guys are the future of DMDU. This was a nice match. Gore is a beast,the way he carried Tyson Reed up the stairs was insane. Tyson Reed is a great heel and I look forward to seeing more of him.

Gore retains the DMDU Championship
2.25/5

Vixsin defends the DMDU Death Match Championship against Jordan Samson

Great match. The theme of this match was a godzilla death match and this was very appropriate. While Vixsin had Samson in an STF she was jamming thumb tacks into his feet and head which was very uncomfortable to watch and I mean that in the best possible way. There was a spot where Jordan Samson tried a double stomp onto a board with silver wear on it and missed. Really good stuff Austrailia I don't know why it took me so long to check them out.

Vixsin retains via pinfall
3.25/5

ICW NHB:46 Rollin' With The Punches

 

Akira v. Deklan Grant

This was a nice way to open the show. The match got a little uncomfortable to watch at times which is always good. Akira got way more violent in this match and that spot with him stabbing Deklan Grant with the knife in the back was terrific. Also I loved the spot where Akira shoved the light tube down Deklan Grant's throat. Deklan Grant had a pretty good first showing here and I think he should be brought back in. Deklan got sloppy in spots but he brought it back.

Akira wins via pinfall
3/5

Tommy Vendetta v. Homicide

We got treated to the nice surprise of Homicide answering the Tommy Vendetta open challenge. The match itself was just ok and a little slow. There was a cool spot where Homicide stabbed Tommy Vendetta in the arm pit with a fork but all and all nothing really stood out to me.

Homicide wins via pinfall
2.5/5

Randi West defends the RPW Rust Belt Championship against Jeff Cannonball

I had fun watching this match. These two used very creative weapons in this match.  The water jug bat always makes me laugh. Jeff Cannonball hit Randi West with a barbed wire,popper covered d***o. And the finish with Randi West suplexing Jeff Cannonball through a door with cans, water jug bats and Cinderblocks.

Randi West retains via pinfall
2.75/5

Danny Demanto v. Eric Ryan

This started with A Weird Atticus Cogar promo but the match and the XPW v. ICW story told in this match was Weird but I'm intrigued.  The match was very good. There was a lot of blood shed and glass broken.

Eric Ryan wins via pinfall
3/5

Bobby Beverly v. Matt Tremont

This was a great fight! Those two guys beat the fuck out of each other.  I saw some of the hardest light tube shots I've ever seen and these two were just leaking blood. This match proves why Bobby Beverly and Matt Treamont are some of the best going right now.

3.75/5

Otis Cogar v. Satu Jinn

The match started out very slow,which is normal for these guys size,but once this match got going. Satu Jinn got his signature Kitana blade spot in and Otis used some type of animal jaw. Both men bled alot so there's nothing to complain about.

Hoodfoot defends the American Death Match Championship against Reed Bentley

This was a fucking amazing match. These two pulled out all the stops and did some really cool stuff. Reed Bentley was just smashing glass plates over Hoodfoot. Craziest spot of all was both men going through the door and glass structure that was on fire. We had a fake out with Reed Bentley winning the Championship but,Danny Demanto restarted the match and we had the finish. Fuck this was good.

Hoodfoot retains via pinfall
5/5
