Pro Wrestling Guerrilla presents “Smells Like Steen Spirit” tonight in Los Angeles, with the following card:
Kevin Steen vs. Quicksilver- PWG Championship Match. Steen took the title from AJ Styles at Zombies Shouldn’t Run. This will be his first defense of the title. He will take on Quicksilver, a former two time PWG Tag Team Champ, who also took Steen’s rival Super Dragon to the limit at Zombies Shouldn’t Run before falling victim to the devastating Barry White Driver.
Super Dragon vs. Samoa Joe. Dragon and Joe met at The Secret of the Ooze and All Nude Revue, with each man picking up a count out victory. The rubber match is tonight, and hopefully we’ll get a true winner, as Joe makes his first appearance in PWG since All Star Weekend Night 1, where he took his first pinfall loss in PWG against AJ Styles.
Chris Bosh vs. Christopher Daniels. This will not be for Daniels’ TNA X-Division Title. Daniels was given the opportunity to choose his opponent after the PWG Title match was changed from him challenging to Quicksilver a week or so ago. Daniels chose Bosh, in order to make a point, and Daniels will face Bosh’s tag team partner Scott Lost in round one of the Battle of Los Angeles tournament next month. Bosh and Lost were unsuccessful in their bid to reclaim the PWG Tag Titles against 2 Skinny Black Guys at Zombies Shouldn’t Run. Daniels beat Chris Hero in a non-X Division Title match the same night.
2 Skinny Black Guys vs. Chris Sabin and Petey Williams- PWG Tag Team Title Match. 2 Skinny Black Guys, El Generico & Human Tornado, won the vacant titles at Zombies Shouldn’t Run, after coming up victorious in a 4-way elimination at Night 2 of
Rocky Romero vs. Joey Ryan. Romero made his return to PWG from an injury at Zombies Shouldn’t Run defeating up and comer Davey Richards. Joey Ryan has used some shady tactics to pick up wins recently over “Double C” Claudio Castagnoli, Mr. Excitement, and Alex Shelley in singles competition. Ryan, being the “Technical Wizard”, wanted a match with a technical wrestler, and boy did he get one.
Davey Richards & Hardkore Kidd vs. Alex Shelley & TJ Perkins. Perkins has defeated Hardkore Kidd and Richards respectively at the last two PWG shows. Now, they’re combining forces to take on Perkins and unlikely partner Alex Shelley.
Also, Dino Winwood will announce the final match for PWG’s Battle of Los Angeles at tonight’s show, and Frankie Kazarian, who recently departed from WWE, will speak publicly about leaving WWE.
More to be added as well, with Disco Machine, Scott Lost, Ronin, Phoenix Star, and Gunning for Hookers (Hook Bomberry & Top Gun Talwar).
