H2O: Concrete Hell

 

GG Everson v. Leroy Robinson 

Leroy Robinson did some cool high-flying stuff early on.  GG Everson was able to pick up the pace in this match and hang with Leroy Robinson. This was a good way to start the show, and both men showed me where they could go. 

GG Everson won via submission 

2.5/5

Cecilio Vega defended the Hybrid Championship against Duncan Aleem, JB Anderson and Brian Neil 

This was a 4 way for the Hybrid Championship.  This was another pretty solid wrestling match.

Cecilio Vega retained via submission 

2.5/5

Low Life Louie Jr. V. Anthraxx in an Anything Goes Match 

Finally, we had some violence. Anthraxx used a gusset plate on Louie Jr. These two had a carpet strip exchange. Anthraxx put Louie Jr. In the rings, while using a claw I noticed that Louie Jr. Is a great bleeder. Louie Jr. No sold a CTE chair shot. This was a really good match, and This could be the Breakout match for Louie Jr. I'm sure Low Life Louie is proud as fuck after watching this, as he should be.

Anthrax won via pinfall 

3.25/5

Kody Manhorn v. Austin Luke v. Mouse v. Marcus Mathers 

This was a match to determine the Number One Contenders for the H2O Championship. This was another solidly wrestled match, and I liked the surprise of Mouse winning. 

Mouse won via pinfall

2.5/5

Remington Rhor v. Low Life Louie Ramos 

Remington Rhor used a Thumbtack Bat on Louie. Remington Rhor then proceeded to carve up Louie with a machete. This is now turning into how many knives can Remington Rhor use because we now have steak knives involved. Louie used a paint roller of Thumbtacks on Remington Rhor. This is what I like to see. Straight violence and Remington Rhor kill it on the East Coast. 

Remington Rhor won via pinfall 

3.75/5

Deklan Grant defended the H2O Championship against Shaun Smith 

This match was so-so. It wasn't bad just nothing stood out about it to me.

Deklan Grant retained via pinfall 

2/5

Neil Diamond Cutter defended the Danny Havoc Hardcore Championship against Braxx

For this being for the Danny Havoc Hardcore Championship, there wasn't much violence, and Frank Bonetti interfered most of the match. This wasn't it for me. NDC was cool, but it wasn't violent enough for me and nothing personal. I'm not saying it won't happen down the line, but Braxx doesn't do much for me.

Neil Diamond Cutter retained via pinfall 

1.75/5

Matt Tremont v Shlak in a Concrete Hell Match 

This has had me pumped since this was announced at King of the Kill. This is only the 2nd time on U.S. soil this has happened. And Dan O'Hare made a comeback to be a special guest referee. If you don't know what a concrete hell match is, you take the canvas out of a wrestling ring and replace it with cinder blocks. If that wasn't bad enough Shlak drove a gusset into Tremont's head with a Cinderblock.  Then Shlak carved up Matt Tremont's head with a Cinderblock. Shlak was throwing around Tremont like nobody's business on those cinderblocks. These two animals, at one point, were picking up pieces of concrete off of the ring and throwing them at each other.  The finish was Dan O'Hare turning on Tremont and costing him the match. This was a really good match you should all go out of your way to see.

Shlak won via pinfall 

4.75/5

Overall

This was a solid show. AA lotof the H2O class are coming into their own and improving in the ring ,and the undercard tonight proved it and stepped up. The Rem/Louie match was great. The Louie Jr./Anthraxx match was great and the main more than delivered.
