For those interested in the results:

For the first time ever, Pro Wrestling Guerrilla was in France, in the tiny arena of Nanterre.

It was tremendous to watch it live and i was surprised by seeing wrestlers so available (obviously this was not wwe): we could talk with them, ask autographs or pictures, and it amazes me that a guy of the stature of Danielson was selling his own merch, asking what size I was and even making some change!!!

To the matches:

-Steve Douglas defeats Thumbtack Jack Douglas got a ton of heat, obviously the evil german always works in France.

-Chris Hero defeats Human Tornado (amazing match with an over the top rope swanton in the crowd from Tornado and a nice speech by Hero at the end, thanking fans even those who boo him, great pop for the guy who is a class act, cool and accessible when you talk a little with him)

-Kenichiro Arai defeats Matsutani Lupin (sorry if the names are incorrectly written) That match got the bump of the night: Arai asks for quiet before what we think was the chop noise spot usual but instead delivers a headbutt heard from the top of the Eiffel tower! man, the noise was freaking ugly, I thought my own head explode!!

-The ex-Jazzy Bi now called Female(...I think, the sound was crappy) defeats Jetta Jetta is a nice girl who bust her ass; that was cool to see women wrestle and not being all about t, a, and catfight.

-Pac defeats Joey Ryan Ryan was incredibly good in a comedy role playing the I want to out-high-fly Pac with no abilities. The charisma of this guy is gold. Pac wins with a shooting star press that touches the light of the ceiling... crazy!!

Crowd was red hot at this point.

-Kevin Steen and El Generico defeat Davey Richards and Super Dragon to retain the PWG tag title Steen seems to be from Quebec so he talks french and put the crowd in his hand, making jokes during the match, which was typical heel-face thing with hot tag and some great moves by Generico and intensity by Davey. Dragon didn't do much.

-Bryan Danielson defeats Austin Aries with a roll up after a counter on the 450 to retain the PWG world title. The match was awesome but the crowd never understood it. It was a mat based, hold for hold, counter for counter, with two of the best technicians, but they were two faces and the crowd didn't get it (they were expected high spots and a heel to yell at and at this time of the night I guess some were drunk or tired). They give us a five star twenty minutes plus classic and puts on tremendous submission and great wrestling.

Awesome show! I loved the ROH dvds, never saw PWG but, in France, we never get that so this was my indy night, I was waiting for so long to see those guys, being so close to the ring (not like a big arena show wwe-style which is cool too but very different), talking with the wrestlers (Aries even makes jokes about people making free photos instead of buying his when everybody came home with at least a T)....definitedly an overwhelming night!

LLW The Iron Hour Results
10-27-07

LLW, The Iron Hour
Hamilton, Ontario
LLW Arena
Attendance: 90-100
Ring Announcer: Brady Bling
Referees: Sean Cassidy, Jon Turnip

1) LLW Trifecta Championship: The Flatliners (Asylum, Matt Burns & Rico Montana) def Club Sexxx (Dan Morris, HHV & Sebastian Suave w/ Jules) to win the titles when Montana pinned HHV.
After the match Burns & Asylum attacked Montana while Dan-e-o came to the ring. Dan-e-o declared this the start of the new era he's been shouting about for so long and declared the Trifecta division finished. There was now only tag titles and the original Flatliners (Burns & Asylum) were the Tag Team champions.

2) Eddie Osbourne w/ Jessy Jones def Samoa Moe

3) Whoresmen Rules Tag Match: The Four Whoresmen (Alex York, Scotty O'Shea, Reese Reynolds & Steve Brown) def The Wild Stallions (Joey Valentyne & RJ City)
Whoresmen Rules means all 4 guys tag in and out of the match so basically a 4 against 2 tag.

4) LLW Light-Heavyweight Championship, First Blood/Fans Bring the Weapons Match: Josh Taylor w/ Mike Rollins def Josh Alexander to retain the title.
More like a Fans DON'T Bring the Weapons match but Josh & Josh made due with chairs and a belt. Ref takes a bump, Rollins smacks Alexander with a chain and Taylor retains when the ref wakes up and sees Alexander bleeding.

Intermission

5) Notorious TID returned to ring action by destroying Ethan Page.
No evidence of TID's leg injury. The Flatliners & Dan-e-o attacked TID after the match and Rico Montana made the save. Ricky Stardust came out and told the Flatliners & Dan-e-o that Nov 24th they'd have to defend their new tag titles in a 4 corners match featuring The Wild Stallions, The Four Whoresmen and Rico & TID.

6) LLW Heavyweight Championship: Derek Wylde def Rip Impact to retain the title.

7) 60 Minute Ironman Match: Johnny Devine def Tyson Dux 3-2

India Wrestling Tour Controversy

A wrestler, presumed to be from Ontario, was jailed after a one week tour of India by 16 wrestlers, mainly from Canada, disintegrated in controversy and a near riot as the organizers announced that it was cancelled during the initial press conference.

According to the Times of India, Tiger Jeet Singh’s Universal Wrestling Stars Inc., a Canadian wrestling company, was scheduled to do a “India vs. Rest of the World - War of Legends" tour in Patiala, Ludhiana and Jalandhar. The shows were cancelled after organizers failed to obtain permission from the Indian security agencies and the sports department. In addition, they were asked to pay a 125% tax on the tickets sold.

During the press conference, held Thursday, October 25th, the wrestlers expressed their anger at coming all the way to India only for the tour to be cancelled. The most angry was the “Russian" Nikita who flipped a table in the general direction of the press, called them “ugly Indian cheats" (which was described as a “racial epithet" by the local press) and challenged any Indian to wrestle him, saying “I am here to kill you." He was subsequently arrested and his passport was seized.

In reality, the “Russian" is almost certainly Ontario wrestler Alexander the Great aka Jason X, travelling with Ontario promoter, trainer and wrestler Ron Hutchison. Various Ontario wrestling insiders confirm that it was him, based on videos of the press conference and posters of the tour.

Needless to say, the Indian press accepts that Nikita is Russian and some have even speculated that the incident will affect relations with Russia. From a Tribune opinion article by Shastri Ramachandaran (hopefully with tongue firmly wedged in cheek), “It is a relief that the organisers will be around to put up a fight another day, and leave the country to now proceed with a policy debate on what the fracas means for India-Russian relations. Was this simply a tactical blunder or is it a strategic failure with long-term consequences for India, Russia and all those smaller countries in between? Is it in anticipation of this clash that top Russian politicos gave a wide berth to Foreign Minister Pranab Mukherjee and Defence Minister A K Antony when they were in Moscow recently?"

Also on the tour were high profile wrestling stars Sonjay Dutt, Jerry Lynn and Steve Corino.

Four joshi (women wrestlers) from Quebec and Ontario were also scheduled to appear: Kacey Diamond, the first champion of ALF (Association de Lutte Feminin) the only monthly joshi promotion in Canada; Josianne the Pussycat, a veteran of Carmen Elektra’s Naked Women Wrestling League; respected veteran Misty Haven, wife of Ontario’s Michael Von Payton; and Portia Perez.

Former International Wrestling Syndicate Canadian Champion, Dan Paysan was also booked on the tour, scheduled to feud with Sonjay Dutt as the masked “Mr. India"

All of the wrestlers are staying at the Hotel Park Plaza in Ludhiana, waiting for their previously scheduled return. In other words, despite the tour being cancelled, the wrestlers are in India for the duration of what would have been the tour.
