Juggalo Championship Wrestling: Powder Keg 2025


 

Buddy Tomas, Corazon, Johnny Vega v. Kongo Kong and Mr. Happy


We started with a squash match to get the big men over


Kongo Kong and Mr. Happy won via pinfall 

0.75/5


Christina Marie v. Hollyhood Haley J


This match wasn't perfect. It was very sloppy. 


Hollywood Haley J won via pinfall 

0.75/5


Mechawolf v. Matt Cross


We had a good, high-flying match here. It got clunky in a few spots but the match was still enjoyable. 

Mechawolf won via pinfall 

2/5


JP Grayson, Shane Mercer, and Alice Crowley v. Magistrate Mike, CoKane, and Steven Flow


This was a standard 6-person tag. The only cool part that stood out was Shane Mercer throwing CoKane through a table off the stage. It was okay.


JP Grayson, Shane Mercer, and Alice Crowley won via pinfall 

2/5


Kaleb Konley defended the JCW American Championship against Willie Mack 


These two had a good match going but it had to end on a count of. Bullshit.


No Contest 

2.5/5


YDNP v. The Outbreak 


I liked the Oubreak's zombie gimmick and this was a decent enough match. 


YDNP won via pinfall 

2/5


Drake Younger v. Joey Janela 


I was super excited about this match and I was not disappointed. These men are both great wrestlers so we had that element. Drake took some insane bumps through barbed wire. And the finish with Drake doing the Drake's landing through the 2 chairs was phenomenal. Usually, I hate the end of the match speeches too, but Joey and Drake putting each other over after going to war with each other got me pumped up.

Drake Younger won via pinfall 

4.5/5


Matt Tremont, Manders, and John Wayne Murdoch v. Mad Man Pondo, Mickie Knuckles, and 2 Tuff Tony 


We had a 6-person Death Match to close the show. This was a wild brawl, but let's focus on the end. Mickie Knuckles soaked a board in Alcohol, 2 Tuff Tony lit the board on fire and Pondo gave John Wayne Murdoch a slam through it. Unfortunately, John Wayne Murdoch was lit on fire, and the match ended. I'm not rating this out of respect for John Wayne Murdoch. Accidents happen, but John has always been cool to me and always remembers me at shows, so if you read this and can help the duke out. I can't find the link for the GoFundMe, but it's out there, and seek it out. 


N/A


Overall


The end left a bad taste in my mouth and most of the show was average at best. Although Drake/Janela was fantastic.


5/10
