H2O: Hustlemania VII

 

Alex Stretch v. Jimmy Chondo Lyon in a Circus Death Match 

Jimmy Chondo Lyon had been provoking Peace Love and Death Match for a few shows so this is a match Alex Stretch wanted. In the first 2 minutes of this match, Alex Stretch dove into a Tube Covered Ring Post and ripped his leg open pretty well. After that we had 3 bumps off of a Scaffold through a net of Barbed Wire that was covering the ring, the first was Stretch getting thrown off the middle, the second was Stretch being driven by Chondo off the middle, the 3rd was Chondo being thrown off and Stretch jumping off the top with a bundle of tubes. This match was great and made legendary by those 3 bumps I just mentioned.

Alex Stretch won via pinfall

Cecilio Vega defended the H2O Hybrid Championship against Shaun Smith

These two just had a straight wrestling match for the title. It was fine and both men were good at it. 

Cecilio Vega retained via pinfall 

2/5

Lady Blakely v. JB Anderson v. Anthraxx v. Mouse v. Dale Patricks in a Hardcore Scramble 

GCW Take notes, this is how you make a scramble interesting and not beat a dead horse. This was pretty chaotic and fun. And after Alex Stretch proposed to Lady Blakely so congrats to those two. 

Lady Blakely won via pinfall

2/5

The Dropouts v. TJ Reno, Leroy Robinson and Pedro Pablo

This was here to showcase The Dropouts as the new heel faction. The match itself wasn't great but it accomplished its goal.

The Dropouts won via pinfall

1.5/5

Mad Man Pondo v. Low Life Louie Ramos

This was legend against legend and we even had a third legend in Jasmine St. Claire. Both men pulled out the classics. Mad Man Pondo used the Sawblade Bat, the stop sign and Cinderblock. Louie bled like crazy and may be the best person that sells in a Death Match I can think of, those screams get me every time. This was a good match and It's a shame it ended in a non finish when Dale Patricks attacked Louie but Little Louie came in for the save so let's see where this goes. 

No Contest 

2.5/5

Neil Diamond Cutter defended the Danny Havoc Hardcore Championship against Bam Sullivan 

Neil Diamond Cutter has been having a hell of a run as Champ and Bam was a great Danny Havoc Hardcore Champ. Bam got busted open on his arm good from a tube shot. And I like NDC using a Tube Shield to honor Danny Havoc. This match was great and very violent just how I like it. 

Neil Diamond Cutter retained via pinfall 

3/5

Head of State(Duncan Aleem, Brian Neil, Johnny Radix, Braxx and President Hawkins)v. Team Tremont (Matt Tremont, Brandon Kirk, Kasey Kirk, Deklan Grant and Jess Moss) in Cage of Hell II

This is H2O's answer to War Games. Johnny Radix and Brian Neil were eliminated by being thrown from the ring through tables. Tremont sidestepped Duncan Aleem and Aleem fell out of the ring through the tables to be eliminated. Braxx was eliminated by being pinned by all of team Tremont after being hit with a barbed wire bat. And Hawkins was pinned. This match was underwhelming for a War Games match but it was cool to see the Head of State all get taken out. Regardless I wanted more violence.

Team Tremont won Cage of Hell II 

2.25/5

Overall 

This was a decent show. We started with a banger and the Danny Havoc Hardcore Championship Match was great. The midcard for the most part was good and while I wanted more from the main it was cool to see the babyfaces get their revenge so it sent people home happy.
