Florida Championship Wrestling Results
January 9, 2011
Report by: Jason Namako of Wrestleview.com
Hello everyone, and welcome to the latest trek to the land of the Sunshine State with this week’s FCW report. So, if you all are ready, then let’s get on with the show!
Our announcers this week are Chris Russo & Byron Saxton.
Kenneth Cameron def. Nick Rogers by submission with a camel clutch.
FLORIDA FEEDBACK: Complete squash to get over Cameron. Nothing more to it than that.
Mike Dalton def. Sakamoto by pinfall with an Impaler DDT.
FLORIDA FEEDBACK: Solid match. Liked Dalton’s FIP work, and Sakamoto continues to impress with his work in his control segments, as he is doing a good job at garnering sympathy for the babyfaces he works with. Good effort by both.
Brad Maddox & Briley Pierce cut a promo, talking about their match next week when they defend the FCW Tag Titles against Epico & Hunico. Pierce says that they will hold the titles for hundreds of years.
FLORIDA FEEDBACK: Good way to continue the odd couple dynamic of the champions.
Aksana def. Cameron Lynn by pinfall with a spinebuster.
FLORIDA FEEDBACK: Hey Grash(NXT Recapper) I have my 1st nomination for SMOTY 2012 Thread. Pretty much all I can say about this. Just horrible.
Dean Ambrose and Leakee def. FCW Champion Leo Kruger and FCW 15 Champion Damien Sandow by pinfall when Leakee pinned Kruger with the Checkmate.
FLORIDA FEEDBACK: Weird putting the madman Ambrose and Leakee, the rising babyface, as a pairing in this match, and looking like the start of something with these two as they did work well together as a team. Seems like with Kruger taking a loss that Leakee will have a title shot down the line. Also, nice way to continue the deal with Sandow & Kruger from last week, where they had problems working together in this match. Good match overall.
Main Event in a Bullrope Match: Husky Harris def. Richie Steamboat by pinfall after Harris hit Steamboat in the head with the cowbell.
FLORIDA FEEDBACK: Decent main event, but as I said before, Harris completely carried this match as Steamboat just does nothing for me. Very bland in the ring, and not suited at all as a heel, comes off as very forced. Harris is so ready to be brought back up to the main roster its ridiculous, great expressions, does a good job on selling and is great on the comebacks, where as Steamboat to me, is just there because of who his dad is.
Overall, solid show this week with two good matches at the end, but a horrible Divas match brings the show down a peg.
My Grade: C+
Well, that will do it for me this week, I want to thank you all for reading and I will be back next week, but remember…
