ICW MKE: Insane 8 2025





Akira v. Jack Sirius 


We had good back and forth wrestling then Akira took it outside and jammed a gusset into Jack Sirius. Jack Sirius jammed a gusset into Akira's head. After some great wrestling, Jack Sirius gave Akira a brainbuster onto some mouse traps. Akira gave Jack Sirius a Hurricanrana through a fork board and a door then got the pin. This was a solid match that focused mostly on wrestling.


Akira won via pinfall

3.5/5


Orin Veidt v. Bryce Five in a First-Round Match 


Bryce did a tilt-a-whirl leg scissor to Orin Veidt and Veidt went through a tube bundle. Orin Veidt worked over Bryce Five by carving him around the ring with a tube. After some back and forth with tubes, Bryce Five did a senton through a pane of glass. Orin Veidt finished the match with an iconoclasm off the top rope through a pane of glass. The match was fine it just got a little repetitive with the tube shots. 


Orin Veidt advanced via pinfall 

2.25/5



GQ Giannos v. Dysfunction in a First-Round Match 


Dysfunction started out working with GQ Giannos with a tube. GQ Giannos gave Dysfunction a Falcon Arrow on a tube. Dysfunction jammed a gusset into Giannos's arm. GQ Giannos got back on offense by putting Dysfunction through a door. GQ Giannos finished the match with a cutter through a pane of glass. This match was okay, but I wanna see where they go because it seems like they're setting up GQ Giannos to be the MVP of the tournament. 


GQ Giannos advanced via pinfall 

2/5


Dr. Redacted v. Tommy Trainwreck in a First-Round Match 


Redacted jump-started the match by Jung Woo dropkicking Tommy Trainwreck through a pane of glass. Tommy Trainwreck took this outside of the ring and got Redacted with tubes. Dr. Redacted used a popper bat to jam a gusset into Tommy Trainwreck's arm. Once they got back into the ring, Redacted did a double stop through a tube bundle to Trainwreck, and Trainwreck jammed a gusset into Redacted and put Redacted through a door. After hitting Tommy Trainwreck with a keyboard, Dr. Redacted did a Senton through a tube bundle to Trainwreck. Tommy Trainwreck got the pin. This was a great match with 2 of the greats doing what they do. 


Tommy Trainwreck advanced via pinfall 

4/5



Bobby V. V. Neil Diamond Cutter in a First-Round Match 


These two started off with a Kendo stick fight. After some strikes Neil Diamond Cutter used a Thumbtack Bat on Bobby V. Bobby V got some payback with tubes and a razor bat. Bobby V. busted out a staple gun. Neil Diamond Cutter got payback by using the staple gun and putting a tube in Bobby V's shirt and breaking the tube. Neil Diamond Cutter took a sign and did a splash onto a tube bundle that was lying across Bobby V. Neil Diamond Cutter used Skewers on Bobby V  after a short comeback from Bobby V. Neil Diamond Cutter did a senton onto a tube lying across Bobby V's chest. Neil Diamond Cutter powerbombed Bobby V through a tube bundle. Neil Diamond Cutter gave Bobby V a Death Valley driver through a tube cabin. The finale was Bobby V. Giving Neil Diamond Cutter an assault driver off the top rope through a tube bundle and a pane of glass.  This was an insane match. Neil Diamond Cutter went out like a champ, and Bobby V. is a name that needs to be on your radar.


Bobby V advanced via pinfall 

4.75/5


Orin Veidt v. GQ Giannos v. Tommy Trainwreck v. Bobby V in the Insane 8 finals


Here's how this works: 2 men start, and every 5 minutes, a new entrant comes in. After all have entered, the match starts, and whoever is left wins. GQ Giannos and Bobby V started. GQ Giannos started off hot with an exploding bat and tubes on Bobby V. Bobby V attacked GQ Giannos with a barbed wire bat. GQ Giannos got Bobby V with a golf club to the nuts. Tommy Trainwreck came out next. Trainwreck and Bobby headbutted light tubes into GQ Giannos then turned around and headbutted each other with tubes. Orin Veidt came out next and killed everyone with tube shots. Tommy Trainwreck pinned Orin Veidt to eliminate him first. GQ Giannos put Tommy Trainwreck through a barbed wire door. In an insane spot, GQ Giannos gave Bobby V.  Off a scaffold through an exploding barbed wire door bridge to eliminate Bobby V. Tommy Trainwreck set up a pane of glass structure in the corner,  lit it on fire, and gave GQ Giannos a Death Valley driver through it to win. What a crazy match. GQ Giannos was made a force to be reckoned with in the death match world and the other 3 were amazing.  This was a great end.


Tommy Trainwreck won Insane 8

3.75/5



Overall


This had some really solid matches and it was a strong tournament. Some stuff was a bit repetitive, but this tournament, I'm sure, put a few new faces on the map.


6.8/10
