GEORGIA WRESTLING NEWS, NOTES, AND NOSTALGIA: 05/25/2008

NEWS

World Wrestling Entertainment results from Mexico City, Mexico, on May 24: Super Crazy over Charlie Haas; Mickie James & Maria over Beth Phoenix & Katie; Mr. Kennedy over Paul Burchill; Jeff Hardy over Paul London; Chris Jericho over Lance Cade to retain the Inter-Continental Title; Cody Rhodes & Hardcore Holly over Sanitino Marella & Carlito to retain the WWE Tag Team Title; John Cena over JBL; and a masked DX team over Snitsky & Umaga. WWE’s SmackDown/ECW crew will be at the Budweiser Event Center in Loveland, CO, tonight. Tickets for the following WWE events go on sale tomorrow: 07/02 in Santiago, Chile, at Arena Santiago (RAW); 07/03 in Lima, Peru, at Estadio Nacional (RAW); 07/04 in Panama City, Panama, at the Figali Convention Center (RAW); and 07/05 in San Salvador, El Salvador, at Gimnasio Nacional Adolfo Pineda (RAW).

Results from the United States Wrestling Organization show on May 23 in Nashville, TN, with 82 in attendance at the always lovely Stadium Inn: New York Gangster & Justin Spade beat Lee Cross & Intern when Spade pinned Intern. Michael Jablonski beat Shane Smalls. Tony Falk puts over that USWO is finishing up their 3rd year in the Stadium Inn which is quite an accomplishment given all of the constant nonsense which goes on around here. Seven (with Charming Charles) vs. T. J. Harley went to a double countout when they brawled on the floor after the power had gone out. A transformer blew but they carried on under the emergency lights for a few minutes. This was for the vacant ATL Championship, so there will be a rematch next week. The lights were out for about 20 minutes but they were going to intermission anyway. Ref Mark Owen happened to have a portable generator with him and hooked up a spotlight to continue the show but the power returned just as he got it all set up. Cowboy Bud Ellis beat Tim Renesto (with Charming Charles). LT Falk & Damien Payne & Cousin Jason X beat Quinton Quarisma & Jay Phoenix & JC Crowe when Payne pinned Phoenix. Post match, Quarisma gave a speech about Phoenix, who is leaving USWO, praising his hard work despite all of the drama in the back. (word is Phoenix could be headed to SAW) Tony Falk says Quarisma & Crowe will defend the USWO tag belts since they do a Freebird thing anyway. USWO Champion Chris Michaels beat Michael Jablonski. Scheduled challenger Mark Anthony was absent, so Jablonski stepped in saying he never got a rematch from his 11/30 title loss to Michaels. One point here saw the middle turnbuckle come off, hitting Michaels in the back of the head and busting him open. Michaels rolled out of a pedigree and pinned Jablonski, who then turned on and viciously attacked Michaels. Jablonski swears off the "Rock Star" persona and returns to being the "Polish Punisher".

Great Championship Wrestling results from the Gr8 Sk8 Plex in Phenix City, AL, on May 22: Micah Taylor defeated Orion Bishop; The Bruiser defeated Ric King; Johnny Swinger defeated J-Rod; Murder-One defeated Tex Monroe; and Bull Buchanan and David Young defeated Johnny Swinger and Zero Tolerance.

IWS sent this report in:

Steen WINS!

The debate over who is the wrestler rages on, but the debate over who the nest man is settled, as Max Boyer dominated his match against Kevin Steen, but fell victim to a super-kick out of nowhere that gave Kevin Steen the victory and made him the International Wrestling Syndicate Canadian Champion as well as the IWS Champion.

Max Boyer seemed to take it well at first, before showing his true colours by ambushing Kevin Steen with a kick to the balls and a series of sickening chair shots first to Kevin Steen’s head and then to Steen’s surgically reconstructed knee. Boyer was about to Pillmanize Steen’s knee when the IWS locker room emptied and the IWS roster rescued their champion.

*****

Detailed Results

Originally, Twiggy was scheduled to fight alongside his tag team partner (and fellow IWS Tag Team Champion) Franky the Mobster. Unfortunately, the muscle in the Rock ‘N’ Roid Express tore his pectoral muscle training, leaving Twiggy to fight as a singles competitor against the IWS’ resident bully, the hang-man Samson. Despite the support of the crowd and a game plan that was both smart and courageous, Twiggy was unable to overcome the goliath Samson and fell victim to a front suplex off the top rope.

Unanswered Questions: Will Franky recover from his injury in time to defend the IWS Tag Team Title belts? What is Twiggy’s Plan B if Franky can’t defend the title with him? Will Samson ever wrestle against someone his size?

EXesS is known as one of Canada’s best pure wrestlers, but over the last year and a half, he has started to build a reputation as a sadistic head-hunter. On Saturday, EXesS notched his sixth IWS star sent to the hospital when he kicked Eddy’s eyebrow ring off his face, sending blood cascading down Eddy’s face. The blood seemed to energize both Eddy and the IWS fans as Eddy rallied to give EXesS a reciprocal beating. Unfortunately, Eddy could not sustain his rally, losing strength as he lost blood, leading to EXesS trapping Eddy in a side triangle choke that forced more blood down Eddy’s face and eventually forced Eddy to tap.

After the match, the IWS fans saluted Eddy’s courage, but he rejected their applause tearing into the fans for only getting excited at the sight of Eddy’s blood.

IWS Trivia fans: EXesS has sent the following IWS stars to the Emergency room: Stefany Sinclair (broken rib), Max Boyer (concussion), Santino (broken nose), Jimmy K (dislocated molar), Shayne Hawke (fractured orbital bone) and finally Sexxxy Eddy (kicked eyebrow ring off face.)

In what can only be described as a match that turned the IWS upside-down, the generally loathed 2.0 found themselves cheered by the fans after a courageous and eventually victorious match against the Untouchables. Jagged found himself isolated and out-numbered by Dan Paysan and Jimmy Stone frustrating Shane Matthews and the fans, before Shane was finally able to make the save, winning the match eventually with a crushing chair shot to Jimmy Stone’s head.

I can’t believe that I was marking out for 2.0. I mean I HATE those guys.

It is very easy to HATE the new Beef Wellington, but it would be a huge mistake to under-estimate him. Jimmy K gave a valiant effort, but was unable to overcome Beef’s cunning and sadistic assault on his ribs, eventually forced to tap to Beef’s body scissors submission variant.

After the match, Beef verbally attacked Jimmy K, “I know that they call you Jimmy K around here, but your real name is James Kraven and I just kicked your ass! Don’t move, you piece of shit. You know what time I got here today? 3 PM. You know what time this worthless turd got here? 9:15. You have been in the IWS for about a year and you already were given a title shot and you didn’t even show up to take it! I have been busting my ass in this company for 6 years, I ran this company! Do you know how many title shots that I have been given? NONE! Even when I was in charge!”

At this point, I should probably mention that Beef does sort of have a point, except, well, actually Manny came out at this point and he said it better than I could.

Beef’s response to Manny coming out, “Isn’t your ass supposed to be retired for the 15th fucking time?”

Manny’s reply, “You know what Beef, you’re right. I’m a lousy wrestler. In fact, I have never actually trained to wrestle. I was so busy building the IWS into Canada’s best wrestling promotion that I never took the time to do it. And I have been listening to you pissing and moaning for months and you know what? A lot of what you said is true! A lot of what you said is stuff that I wanted to say for years. But you know what I realized after Kevin Steen beat me at the Medley for the IWS Title? It doesn’t matter if I insult these fans or I praise them, they still show up every single month. And yeah, you did run this company and put up with a bunch of shit. So did ten other guys in the back and you don’t see them out here bitching. Maybe you should just grow up!”

*KOFF*Oneoftheten*KOFF* Sorry, something caught in my throat there.

Beef challenged Manny to a wrestling match at the Medley, but Manny pointed out again that he was a lousy wrestler, and told Beef to pick a partner because at the Medley, Beef would face Manny in a FANS BRING THE WEAPONS match.

At this point, Sexxxy Eddy stormed the ring and attacked Manny from behind with a chair, appointing himself Beef’s partner at the Medley. After Beef and Eddy left Manny beaten in the ring, Manny urged the fans to start getting creative with their weapons to give him something to get his revenge with.

I suppose that this is as good a place as to announce that the Medley show will be called Un F’N Sanctioned.

After months of ducking the Green Phantom, “Paranoid” Jake Matthews found himself forced to wrestle the IWS Hardcore Hero after the Phantom kidnapped Jake’s wife and manager Lollipop, dragging her to the ring by a rope. This strategy brought the Phantom what he wanted, a match with Jake, but it nearly proved his undoing as Jake and Lollipop used the rope to ambush the Green Phantom on a number of occasions.

In the end, the Phantom had to go deep into his bag of tricks, pulling out the Green Mist for the first time in years to blind Jake long enough for the Phantom to give him a Phantom Menace through a table for the win.

The match also saw a sick spot where Jake hurled the Green Phantom upside-down into a pillar and dropped the Phantom on his head.

The main event was a great match that could have been won by either man. Pre-match speculation was that Max Boyer would concentrate his attack on Kevin Steen’s surgically reconstructed knee (an injury that Kevin Steen originally suffered in 2001 when Max Boyer dove out of the way of an errant Steen drop-kick) but in fact Max Boyer concentrated his attack on Kevin Steen’s left shoulder, keying in on the shoulder as soon as Max dodged a Kevin Steen dive that saw Steen’s left shoulder collide with the ring post.

Max had plenty of chances to win, and it was only a desperation super-kick to the jaw that gave Kevin Steen the victory. Max was unable to accept the moral victory of dominating the match however and snapped in an outburst of anger and poor sportsmanship that saw Kevin Steen unable to walk after Max’s repeated chair shots to Kevin’s vulnerable knee.
