[I]I'm not going to bore you with some backstory about me winning the lotery and starting a company or something. This just follows the story of a new eastcoast US indy company.[/I] The U.S indy scene is always seeing new companies come and go. Very few in the country have been around since before the year 2000. The east coast in perticular is flooded with fantastic shows. It takes a lot to stand out. TIGER Pro is looking to stand out. TIGER is the brainchild of Steven Richards, and no not the one from ECW. A lifelong wrestling fan he's taking a huge gamble financially to run his own promotion. He's booked ROH and CHIKARA regulars and being in their home turf might prove to be problematic but it's a risk worth taking. The era of TIGER begins now. Sent out to wrestling websites and messageboards: [CENTER]Photobucket[/CENTER] The buzz started to grow. Word of mouth spread like wildfire. What was TIGER Pro? Fans were slowly given more information about the company and pre sale tickets sold out. The event was booked perfectly, on a weekend where the major promotions in the tri state area weren't running. An unopposed weekend. Pre sale tickets sold out. -------------------- THIS WEEKEND: TIGER PRO PRESENTS CROWNING A CHAMPION. A TWO NIGHT EVENT AT THE MANHATTEN CENTER IN NEW YORK CITY. OPENING ROUND MATCHES ON FRIDAY NIGHT, SEMI FINALS TO FINALS ON SATURDAY NIGHT. ALSO FEATURED ON FRIDAY NIGHT A NON TOURNAMENT TAG TEAM MATCHUP BETWEEN THE NAPTOWN DRAGONS OF DUSTIN LEE AND SCOTTY VORTEKZ. TOURNAMENT MATCHES ARE 1 VS. 1 OPENING ROUND, 1 VS. 1 VS. 1 SECOND ROUND, AND 1 VS. 1 ALL REMAINING ROUNDS. TITLE CEREMONY TO TAKE PLACE AFTER TOURNAMENT FINALS. ALSO SIGNED FOR SATURDAY NIGHT THE WINNERS OF THE FRIDAY NIGHT TAG MATCH WILL CHALLANGE THE NWA WORLD TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS LOS LUCHAS IN A TITLE MATCH. ([I]Night one up later today. Night two to follow this weekend. Also, as a side note not everyone on the tournament will be a regular, so if you don't like the super-indy kind of promotion don't worry. I'll be using a mix of names already out there, up and comers, and hopefully some home grown talent.[/I])

The Manhatten Center is paacked tonight. Fans start filing in and finding their seats. The ring is white with orange trim, the TIGER logo in the middle. The entrance way has a proper set up with full lighting rigs. The lights go out and the fans start applauding. It's time to begin. [B]Opening Round Match[/B] [B]"The King Of Old School" Steve Corino vs. Ace Steel[/B] [QUOTE]Corino came out looking good, for many fans it was their first time seeing him since his time in ROH. For some it was the first time since his ECW days. Ace Steel looked to be in great shape. This is his first return to the indy's since being released by the WWE and he's looking to make good on it. The match started out with both men feeling each other out, not sure of what the other was looking to do. A great series of reversals ended in Steel hitting a big german suplex on Corino getting 2 and 7/8ths on the count. Corino got his momentum back though hitting a big [B]leg lariat[/B]. Couldn't pick up the win there but kept the pace up hitting a big lariat which lead to the [B]Old School Explusion[/B]. Cover gets the 3 and Steve Corino moves on to the second round.[/QUOTE] [B]Opening Round Match[/B] [B]"The Pukka One" Darren Burridge vs. Kevin Steen[/B] [QUOTE]Kevin Steen is looking at TIGER as his opportunity to really make a splash by winning the TIGER Championship. Darren Burridge is looking to make a name for himself in America, a territory new to him. The fans got a good taste of what he's capable in this match. Steen though had a blazing intensity all throughout the match hitting a big powerbomb into the turnbuckles. Burridge was able to hit a big second rope shoulderblock but that was his biggest moment of offense. Steen takes the match decisively with the [B]Package Piledriver[/B].[/QUOTE] [I]The camera cuts to Roderick Strong in the back getting ready for his match.[/I] [QUOTE]Tonight I've got to wrestle someone I've never heard of. He has no idea whats in store for him. Tonight is just the first step to my reign as champion in this company. So Brodie Lee, get ready to lose.[/QUOTE] [B]Opening Round Match "Big Rig" Brodie Lee vs. Roderick Strong[/B] [QUOTE]Lee is becoming a hot commodity on the indy scene and wants to add more fuel to his fire with a good showing in this tournament. Roderick Strong has the chance to prove himself as a true singles star this weekend. Strong had difficulty hitting his signature backbreakers on Lee due to his size. This match saw some brawling on the outside including a nasty looking moment when Lee pressed Strong up and released him to crash ribs first on the guardrail. After dragging Strong back into the ring and nailing a massive [B]boot to the face[/B] Lee tries to put him away. Strong kicks out at two and Lee lets his temper get the best of him and argues with referee Bryce Remsburg. Strong uses this to [B]roll up[/B] Lee and grab the victory.[/QUOTE] [B]Opening Round Match Ricochet vs. "The Human Torture Device" Doug Williams[/B] [QUOTE]Ricochet didn't stand a chance in this one. Williams is on a mission and Ricochet ended up being a tiny obstacle in his way. Williams abused his opponent with his stiff knee strikes. Ricochet tried to get something going after hitting a beautiful springboard dropkick that rearranged Williams face. In the end though it wasn't enough as Williams chickenwinged Ricochet and bent his back over his knee, a move he calls the [B]Iron Maiden[/B], to get the submission. Williams [B]refuses to break the hold[/B] and referee Bryce Remsberg is physically trying to separate the two men. Williams finally throws Ricochet to the mat and proceeds to deliver kicks to the back of his head.[/QUOTE] [I]Tyler Black is getting himself ready for his upcoming match[/I] [QUOTE]New York, tonight you get to see a revolution unfold before your eyes. This is a new day. The perfect time to strike and take advantage of the opportunity in front of me. Tonight you see the rise of Tyler Black to greatness. When everything is said and done and you look back on what TIGER was founded on, you'll see that it was Tyler Black that put this company on his shoulders. No one is going to stand in my way so Hawx, sorry to say you don't stand a chance.[/QUOTE] [I]Oren Hawx is sitting down backstage.[/I] [QUOTE]Tyler Black we got back a long way. We've worked all over this country. I've beaten you before and I can beat you again. This is my chance to step up and I'm not going to screw it up. I've never gotten a fair chance before so now that this tournament is in front of me, I plan on running through it. And that means running through you. These fans can cheer you all the want, but it'll just be set up for disappointment.[/QUOTE] [B]Opening Round Match Tyler Black vs. "The Southern Saint" Oren Hawx[/B] [QUOTE]Tyler Black is a man who's star is rising fast in the world of wrestling. Already putting on some amazing matches in his short career. Oren Hawx has been around a while and has never really gotten past the glass ceiling if you will. These two know each other from the WSX days. Black started out the match by attacking fast and hard, working Hawx into the corner and delivering chops that echoed throughout the arena. Hawx was able to slow things down by locking in an [B]STF[/B] after a big dropkick. Black got to the ropes and slid out of the ring to catch his breath. After some more back and forth action Hawx went to the top rope to finish Black off. Hawx dives off the top rope but Black catches him... cradles him... and hits the [B]God's Last Gift[/B] for the pin.[/QUOTE] [B]Opening Round Match "Lightning" Mike Quackenbush vs. Josh Abercrombie[/B] [QUOTE]Josh Abercrombie came out looking pissed off. Gone were the moustache and brightly colored trunks. Instead stood a bearded angry man fed up with a lack of respect. Quackenbush made his way to the ring in fine form. Having recovered nicely from back surgery. This was a back and forth match that had fans on the edge of their seats. A "lets go Quack" chant broke out during the match as he nailed Abercrombie on the outside with a swanton suicide dive. The [B]lightning lock[/B] gave the match some great drama as Abercrombie was able to hold off tapping out. Quack broke the lock and attempted to hit the Quackendriver but Abercrombie countered by shoving Quack into the corner. Some strikes followed and Abercrombie tried for the [B]Taliban Backpack[/B]. Quack slips out and under, kick to the gut, and DRILLS Abercrombie with the [B]Quackendriver III[/B]. After Quackenbush gets his hand raised Abercrombie snaps and hits a [B]super kick[/B] to the back of Quacks head. Abercrombie leaves looking satisfied in exacting a bit of revenge.[/QUOTE] [B]Opening Round Match El Generico vs. Matt Cross[/B] [QUOTE]Matt Cross the man formerly known as M-Dogg 20 is coming off a somewhat successful stint in ROH as a member of the now disbanded Resilience stable. El Generico of course you all know, a fan favorite everywhere he goes. Standing in the ring getting ready to lead the crowd in a big OLE! when Coss strikes from behind. He stomps away at Generico before picking him up, sending him to the ropes and executing a picture perfect headscissors takedown. Generico lands outside after the move and tries to collect himself but is soon blasted by Cross diving over the ropes from a distance no human should be able to and hitting a cartwheel to [B]corkscrew plancha[/B]. The fans pop hard for that one. Back in the ring a little later on and Generico and Cross are trading blows in the center of the ring. Cross tries to hit a standing tornado DDT but Generico pushes him off. As Cross turns back around to his opponent Generico kills him with a [B]Yakuza kick[/B]. Generio grabs cross off the floor, lifts him up and drives him back down with a [B]brainbuster[/B]. Cover and gets the three. Cross does not look happy as he gets back to his feet after the match. He jaws with the fans on his way to the back.[/QUOTE] [B]Opening Round Match Arik Cannon vs. "The Impact Bully" Brandon Thomaselli[/B] [QUOTE]Both of these men now their way around the American Indy's. Cannon has been able to wrestle in Japan and work regularly around the U.S. Thomaselli is starting to impress fans with his high impact style which lead to his nickname of The Impact Bully. The match begin with the two trading blows and trading smaller moves like arm drags and headlock takeovers. Both jockeying for position to get something started. During the match a fan yelled out "YOU LOOK LIKE A GARBAGE BAG" at Cannon which seemed to enrage him. Following a stiff kick to the head of Thomaselli, Cannon brings him down with a swinging neckbreaker. Later on in the match we see Thomaselli in control when he butterflies Cannon's arms and flips him like a tiger driver only for Cannon to [B]land hard on both of Thomasellis knees[/B]. The cover only gets a two though. Thomaselli goes back to cannon hoping to hit his finish to pick up the win but Cannon counters and hits a release [B]german suplex[/B]. Thomaselli hits so hard his momentum rolls him back and brings him to his knees and it's then it's Cannon running toward to hit the [B]Glimmering Warlock[/B] for the victory.[/QUOTE] [B]Opening Round Match "The Russian Bear" Alex Koslov vs. Davey Richards[/B] [QUOTE]Kozlov has been making a name for himself down in Mexico but he wants break into the U.S. He's gotten some exposure with TNA but that's only short term. Richards many feel is the guy to make waves in 2008. He's been getting better and better every time he steps into the ring. This was a stiff affair between the two between Richards kicks and Koslov's elbows and forearms. Richards attacked the legs to slow the Russian down. Davey was able to hit some quick kicks to the mid section of Koslov to soften him up for the [B]DR Driver[/B]. Richards follows it with a cover to grab the victory.[/QUOTE] [B]Opening Round Match Chris Hero vs. Kenny Omega[/B] [QUOTE]Omega is a top prospect from Canada hoping to get his name out in the states. Hero on the other hand is a favorite to take this whole thing. After a breakout year in 2007 he's been more focused than ever. Hero really didn't have a problem with Omega in this match though he did have some difficulty early on as Omega is quicker and a hard striker. hero was able to lock into the [B]Hangmans Clutch[/B] and force Omega to tap out for the victory.[/QUOTE] [I]After the match Hero grabs the mic.[/I] [QUOTE]Chris Hero has come to TIGER with one goal in mind. To get to the top and stay there. I've been a champion everywhere I've been and this won't be any different. I've been loved and I've been hated but none of that is going to cloud my vision when that belt is in my sight. If I have to go through Danielson, KENTA, whoever to reach my goal so be it. I won't lose, that's a promise.[/QUOTE] [I]Bryan Danielson grabs a camera guy and tells him he has something to say[/I] [QUOTE]The Best In The World continues to dominate tonight. Toss all the nobodies you want at me and they'll all tap out. You don't become the greatest wrestler in the world without backing it up. For years I've been the most dominant wrestler wherever I've been. I've been a world champion and taken that belt all over this planet. Tomorrow night, that belt is mine.[/QUOTE] [B]Opening Round Match "The Self Proclaimed Best In The World" Bryan Danielson vs. Sterling James Keenan[/B] [QUOTE]The always ****y self proclaimed best in the world Bryan Danielson has one goal and one goal only, dominate every opponent in is way en route to the title. Keenan is a guy that feels he hasn't really gotten a shot in North America. He's worked some dark matches for the WWE but a promotion has really never given him a chance. He has found success in England though and that's certainly boosted his confidence. Dragon really controlled the pace of the match hitting a lot of smaller moves that lead up to him really unleashing on Keenan. Keenen hit a dropkick to the knees of Danielson that put him down. Kenned followed that up with a [B]brutal dropkick to the face[/B]. He picks him up and yells out [B]MK ULTRA[/B]! Danielson is able to make him look like a fool though by using his body weight to stumble Keenan to the ropes. Kennen though does not lose his grip on Danielson and runs forward only for danielson to break out at the last second. High kick by Danielson sends Kennen down... [B]ELBOWS... ELBOWS... ELBOWS...[/B] Kennan taps out. Danielson picks up the victory with his signature side mount elbow strikes.[/QUOTE] [B]Non Tournament Match The Naptown Dragons vs. Cheech and Cloudy[/B] [QUOTE]Good match up between these two exciting teams. Preview for what the tag division in TIGER will hold. Both teams got offense in and hit nice double team spots. The Naptown Dragons of Dustin Lee and Scotty Vortekz picked up the win when Lee hit a [B]double stomp[/B] to the face of Cheech followed up with Vortekz hitting a [B]moonsault[/B] for the pin.[/QUOTE] [B]Opening Round Match KENTA vs. Chuck Taylor[/B] [QUOTE]Taylor came out hoping to make every kid in the crowd pee their pants. Unable to find any he begrudgingly made his way into the ring. KENTA came out to a huge pop. These two stared each other down to start the match. Towards the middle of the match both men found themselves on the outside as Taylor hit a [B]springboard plancha[/B] over the top rope onto KENTA. Back in the ring they trade forearms and chops, KENTA gets the advantage and sends Taylor into the ropes only to deliver a high kick that knocks him down. KENTA hits his signature rush which sets up Taylor to eat a big [B]busaiku knee kick[/B] to his face. KENTA can't get the win after the knee. Taylor shifts the match back in his favor and drills KENTA with the [B]Omega Driver[/B]. Cover 1... 2... 3 NO, KENTA kicks out. Taylor climbs to the top rope to finish him off but KENTA catches him... [B]OH BABY GO TO SLEEP...[/B] 1 2 3. KENTA grabs the win.[/QUOTE] CATCH TIGER TOMARROW AS WE CROWN OUR FIRST CHAMPION. YOU WON'T WANT TO MISS IT! IN NON TOURNAMENT MATCHES THE NAPTOWN DRAGONS TAKE ON THE NWA WORLD TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS LOS LUCHAS IN A TITLE MATCH. JOSH ABERCROMBIE SAYS HE HAS A MESSAGE FOR EVERYONE.

NIGHT TWO: The Manhatten Center is at capacity again tonight as the tournament will end. When tonight ends, we will have our first champion. The lights dim and we begin. [I]Bryan Danielson makes his way to the ring microphone in hand.[/I] [QUOTE]In a few hours you all get to see the crowning of the first champion in this company, and he's standing right here in this ring. Last night I had to wrestle garbage, pure garbage. It's no different tonight. I've said it before and I'll say it until the day I die, I'm the best in this company, I'm the best in this country, I am the best in the world.[/QUOTE] [B]NWA World Tag Team Championship Match The Naptown Dragons vs. Los Luchas (CHAMPIONS)[/B] [QUOTE]Last night we witness the birth of TIGER Pro and the beginning of the tournament to crown our first champion. Before we get to the tournament we have a big tag match for you. Last night Dustin Lee and Scotty Vortekx the Naptown Dragons beat Cheech and Cloudy to earn their match tonight. They're facing the NWA World Tag Team Champions Los Luchas, Zokre and Pheonix Star. In a few weeks when TIGER holds it's tag team championship tournament you know the Naptown Dragons will be looking to take home the gold. Anything less would certainly be a disappointment for the duo. To the ring with our announcer Steven Richards. "The following contest is scheduled for one fall with a 30 minute time limit. It is seen under the advisement of the National Wrestling Alliance and TIGER Pro. It is for the NWA World Tag Team Championship. In charge, TIGER Head Referee Bryce Remsburg." "Standing to my left, the challengers. They weigh in at a combined weight of 353lbs, from Indianapolis Indiana... Diehard Dustin Lee and Scotty Vortekz the NAP..TOWN...DRAGONS. Standing to my right, the champions. They weigh in at a combined weight of 361lbs, from Mexico... Zokre...Pheonix Star... LOS LUCHAS." These two teams took to the air a lot. This was certainly a match where if you blinked you would miss something big. Los Luchas had a big moment when stereo headscissor takedowns sent the Dragons to the floor. Los Luchas waited for the right moment and took flight hitting [B]dual suicide planchas[/B]. The crowd was really getting into the match as all four men were in the ring going at it. Pheonix Star and Diehard end up on the outside. Zokre takes flight with a [B]springboard dragonrana[/B] and locks up the victory for his team. Los Luchas successfully defend their titles. [/QUOTE] [I]Kevin Steen is in the back lacing up his boots.[/I] [QUOTE]Are you kidding me? Are you ****ing kidding me? I have to wrestle a has been washed up dinosaur and Roderick "Boring" Strong. This is going to be like stealing from a blind guy. If anyone has any plans of beating Kevin Steen in this tournament, bring a gun because you'll have to ****ing kill me.[/QUOTE] [B]Second Round Match "The King Of Old School" Steve Corino vs. Roderick Strong vs. Kevin Steen[/B] [QUOTE]Talk about a hard hitting match. Steen and Strong decided they would try to punch each others heads off. Corino being the kind of guy he is sat back, putting his feet up on the ropes watching his opponents beat the tar out of each other. Finally Steen and Strong realized Corino wasn't laying low and ran after him. Corino now wide-eyed dove out of the ring and ran around it before going underneath it. He crawls out the other side and ends up behind Steen. He shoves Steens face [B]into the ring post[/B] knocking him down and out. Back in the ring Corino and Strong are going at it. Trading blows before Strong cuts him off with a knee to the midsection. Steen is crawling back into the ring now only to be met by boots to the back. fast forward a little and strong hits a massive [B]butterfly backbreaker[/B] on Steen that's sends him outside. Corino uses this to hit a high knee to the back of Strong's head pushing him chest first into the corner. Corino presses forward gaining momentum and [B]rolls back[/B] using his body weight to keep Strong down for the victory.[/QUOTE] [B]Second Round Match [QUOTE]"The Human Torture Device" Doug Williams vs. "Lightning" Mike Quackenbush vs. Tyler Black[/B] Talk about a styles clash in this one. Quack was able to use his agility and slick style to bob and weave through the moves of Williams and Black. Tyler Black really showed off his resilience in this match as he kicked out from both a [B]sitout powerbomb[/B] from Williams and a [B]Quackendriver II[/B] from Quackenbush. Williams stretched Quack to his limits with a stretch plum. While in the move Black came from nowhere to hit Williams with a flying forearm. Black looked like he had the win when he tied up Quack with a [B]hurricanrana[/B] but couldn't get it done. The end of the match saw Quack waist lock Black looking to hit a german suplex when Williams ran forward waist locking Quack [B]suplexing the both of them[/B]. Williams covers Quack for the victory.[/QUOTE] [I]Arik Cannon is getting ready for his match in the locker room.[/I] [QUOTE]I've been through hell and back in my career. I've wrestles all over this world against some of the very best. This is my first chance at glory. I've always been overlooked, thought of as someone who could carry a company. Oh Arik Cannon can't wrestle, he can't cut promos, he's not a legitimate champion. That all ends now.[/QUOTE] [B]Second Round Match El Generico vs. Arik Cannon vs. "The Self Proclaimed Best In The World" Bryan Danielson[/B] [QUOTE]This match didn't last as long as one would hope for with three extremely talented workers involved in it. Though it had lots of highlights. Cannon hit a glimmering warlock on Generico but Danielson stood behind stalking him and nailed a [B]dragon suplex[/B]. Instead of going for the cover he hit another one. And another one. Absolutely decimating Arik Cannon. Cannon rolled out of the ring and was attended to by the medical staff on hand. Generico fought back against the overly aggressive Danielson. Looking like he was going to hit the Brainbustaaaaaah but couldn't. Danielson hit an avalanche belly to belly from the turnbuckle and locked in [B]Cattle Mutilation[/B]. Generico taps.[/QUOTE] [I]After the match Generico is regaining his composure when Matt Cross and Josh Abercrombie hit the ring from the crowd. They put the boots to Generico and Abercrombie nails him with the Tom Selleck Driver and Cross hits a shoot star press to keep him down. Abercrombie grabs a mic.[/I] [QUOTE]Take a look at what you see in this ring. A beaten man laying at our feet. El Generico, you're the first of what's to come. You tell Kevin Steen that if he even thinks about going after the tag titles with you, they'll be hell to pay. You may be hotshots elsewhere but this is our company. This is our time. The New Wave has risen.[/QUOTE] [B]Second Round Match Chris Hero vs. KENTA vs. Davey Richards[/B] [QUOTE]A great match took place though not a long one. KENTA was feeling the effects of his first night match as was Richards. Hero used this to his advantage and took control of the match mid way through it. KENTA was able to hit an avalance [B]falcon arrow[/B] on Richards that put him out of the rest of the match. Hero dove to break up the pink and was able to pull a [B]Hero's Welcome[/B] out of nowhere for the victory.[/QUOTE] [B]Third Round Match "The King Of Old School" Steve Corino vs. "The Human Torture Device" Doug Williams[/B] [QUOTE]Both of these men are veterans of the business. Both are wold class workers and former world champions. The atmosphere in the Manhattan Center heated up for these two. The fans knew they were in for something special. Things got going after the initial trading of hammerlocks and wristlocks. Really working a methodical chain wrestling style. The first big move came when Corino ducked a Williams [B]lariat[/B] to hit one of his own. From then on it was one big thing after another. Leg lariat from Corino sent Williams down. Corino locks in a [B]figure four[/B] right in the middle of the ring. Corino is really working the hold, delivering hammer blows to the knee of Williams. Williams is starting to come back, a look of rage across his face. He's trying to rock Corino over onto his stomach reversing the flow of the hold. Williams stops that stratagy and lifts himself up on his elbows. Staring into the face of Corino he lunges forward and punches Corino [B]straight in the jaw[/B]. That one looked horrifically brutal. The lock was broken as Corino checks to see how many teeth he lost. Williams favoring his leg is trying to shake the feeling back into it. He grabs hold of Corino and tosses him overhead with a belly to belly suplex. Diving knee to the chest of Corino by Williams drives the air out of his lungs. Corino never seemed to recover from that suplex and eventually fell victim to Williams new [B]Iron Maiden[/B] submission move. Much the same as last night Williams refused to release the hold until long after the bell rings. Williams moves into the finals of the tournament. Will he be the first TIGER champion?[/QUOTE] [I]The camera catches Williams as he enters the backstage area.[/I] [QUOTE]After what you've just seen there shouldn't be any questions. I am the most ruthless, vicious, and brutal wrestler in this company. I'll do whatever it takes, whatever it takes. If I have to maim people, break their limbs, end their careers I will. I have no problem eliminating any and all threats. The Human Torture Device does not show mercy.[/QUOTE] [B]Third Round Match "The Self Proclaimed Best Wrestler In The World" Bryan Danielson vs. Chris Hero[/B] [QUOTE]Two of the very best in the world are going at it right here. Hero's conditioning is certainly going to help him as he's gone as far as 90+ minutes in a match. Danielson is no slouch though with 60 minute matches under his belt. Hero and Danielson met in the middle of the ring, foreheads touching yelling back and forth at each other. The tension finally rises too much as Hero hits a big elbow, Danielson answers back. At least 10 each from the two men find their way to the others face. Danielson finally seperates the two with a big [B]roaring[/B] elbow. Both Hero and Danielson collapse to the mat after brutalizing each other. Later on in the match Danielson has [B]Cattle Mutilation[/B] locked in but Hero rolls out. Danielson catches him and starts hitting [B]elbows[/B]. Again Hero slips out. Danielson has the arms locked again bu Hero rolls over for the cover. Danielson lets go in order not to get pinned. Both men back to their feet and Hero slams his [B]boot into the face[/B] of Danielson. [B]Hangmans clutch[/B] follows but Danielson reaches the ropes. More back and forth action ends with Hero hitting the [B]Hero's Welcome[/B]. Cover. 1... 2... 3... Hero moves on to the finals where he'll meet Doug Williams. Will he be the first TIGER champion.[/QUOTE] [B]Non Tournament Match "The Russian Bear" Alex Koslov vs. Chuck Taylor[/B] [QUOTE]These men lost tough matches last night and want to get on the right track in TIGER. Neither wants to start 0-2. Chuck Taylor made a three year old girl cry to start the match off. He seemed very proud of himself. A big mistake though was to take his eyes off of Koslov who ran and hit a HUGE [B]lariat[/B] and almost got the win right then and there. Taylor was able to regroup himself and take the fight to Koslov. Taylor did seem to be feeling the effects of his big match with KENTA from last night. Koslov hit a nice [B]piledriver[/B] to keep Taylor down long enough to get to the top rope. Splash attempt misses and taylor [B]rolls him up[/B] tight to get the win. Taylor celebrates like he just won the Superbowl and on his way to the back knocks popcorn out of a kids hand.[/QUOTE] [B]Tournament Finals for the TIGER Championship Chris Hero vs. "The Human Torture Device" Doug Williams[/B] [QUOTE]Our ring announcer Steven Richards steps into the ring with Bryce Remsberg. Richards is holding a bag in his hand. Remsburg holds out his hands and the bag is placed in them. Out comes the TIGER Championship belt. Richards holds it as Hero and Williams make their way to the ring. "The following match is your main event and the finals of the Crowning A Champion Tournament. This match is scheduled for one fall with a 60 minute time limit and is sanctioned by the TIGER Championship Committee and it is for the TIGER Pro Championship." Bryce Remsburg takes the belt and presents it to both Williams and Hero before presenting it to the four sides of the crowd. Both Hero and Williams come forward as a picture is taken to celebrate this historic moment. "Standing to my left from Reading, Berkshire England. He stands at an even six feet tall and weighs in tonight at 225lbs. He is the Human Torture Device Doooouuuuuggggg Willllllliams. And standing to my right from Metropolis. He stand at six feet five inches tall and weighs in tonight at 240lbs. He is Chrissssssss Heeeeeroooooooo." The bell rings and the match is on. Hero offers his hand for a handshake and Williams just slaps it around. You can here Hero say "so it's going to be like that". A look of intensity sweeps over his face. This isn't the comedic funny Hero we've seen over the years. This is a focused driven man on a mission. Williams though matches Hero's intensity. The two lock up and begin a series of chain wrestling that couldn't have been executed better. Both students of the British style they seem to have a counter for whatever the other can come up with. Williams finally figures out a way to get an advantage by taking the legs of Hero out from other him. Hero is going to have to use his height to out work Williams if he wants to keep trying to go for arm holds. Hero cartwheels out of a hammerlock and hits a big elbow that knocks Williams for a loop. Williams shakes the cobwebs out and starts trading open hand slaps, forearms, and knee lifts with Hero. Eventually Williams is dominating Hero and slaps down a [B]DDT[/B]. He climbs up to the top rope and comes off with a double knee drop across Hero's midsection. Williams grabs a hold of Hero and locks in the [B]Iron Maiden[/B] submission. No one has escaped this yet and he has it locked in tight in the middle of the ring. Hero will not tap though. Ref Remsburg is almost pleading with Hero to tap out but he isn't hearing any of it. Williams is doing everything he can to obtain more leverage and [B]drive the knee further[/B] into the spine of Hero to add to the punishment. [B]Blood starts to trickle out of the mouth of Hero[/B] and Remsburg wants to stop the match. Hero screams out [B]"DONT STOP THE ****ING MATCH"[/B]. The crowd is hotter than ever at this moment. "Lets go Hero" chants are deafaning. Hero is squirming around trying to free himself. He leans down and kicks his legs up in the air hitting Williams in the head. The hold is broken. Williams keeps on Hero though and pushes him to the corner. Waistlock. HERE... IT... COMES. [B]CHAOS THEORY[/B]. instead of bridging on the german suplex he releases Hero and he lands with a sickening thud. Williams drags his body away from the ropes and covers him. 1... 2... NO! HERO GETS AN ARM UP! The crowd is losing their mind. Hero is fighting back, blows to the mid section back Williams away. Hero to his feet, fighting for his life. Rights, lefts, elbows. ROARING ELBOW AND WILLIAMS IS DOWN! [B]HANGMANS CLUTCH[/B]... WILLIAMS TAPS! WILLIAMS TAPS! CHRIS HERO IS THE FIRST EVER TIGER PRO CHAMPION! [I]Chris Hero is still laying on the mat as some of the locker room spills out to come congratulate them lead by friend Mike Quackenbush. Doug Williams rolls out of the ring not wanting to stick around, he also doesn't shake Hero's hand. Steven Richards brings the title belt into the ring and has a mic. "Chris Hero, you have given us an epic performance this weekend. You beat some of the best in the world and you deserve this title without a doubt. So everyone please welcome your new TIGER Pro champion CHRIS HERO." The fans burst into applause and a "Chris is awesome" chant. The guys around him in the ring all congratulate him and Quack gives him a hug. Richards passes the mic to him.[/I] "Thank you. Really. This as been one of the toughest two nights I've ever..." Hero is cut off as Bryan Danielson has run down to the ring and shoves three guys out of his way and tackles Hero. Danielson is punching away at Hero as guys start trying to break it up. Quack gets a boot in the mouth for his efforts and Tyler Black gets elbowed hard in the face. Richards gets pushed through the ropes out to the floor and hits hard. Danielson is still punching away when finally he's restrained by security. As he's being dragged away you can here him yell out "THAT TITLE WILL BE MINE.". Our show ends with Hero on the mat beaten but still clutching the title.[/QUOTE]

[B]From the TIGER News Blog[/B] Photobucket [SIZE="5"]FALL OUT FROM CROWNING A CHAMPION, CORINO INJURY UPDATE, TIGER II CARD, AND MORE[/SIZE] Last night we saw Chris Hero capture the TIGER Pro Championship, becoming the first to ever hold it. His celebration was interrupted though as Bryan Danielson saw fit to attack Hero after his brutal match with Doug Williams. Due to his action Danielson has been placed on a 90 controlled probation. Danielson cannot challange for a title during this time frame and will be paying a fine. He also cannot interfere with any match. If he voids that stipulation he will be in violation of his contract. When we asked Chris Hero his thoughts on the situation he simply stated that when the time is right he'll respond to Danielson's actions. A big question coming out of last night is what are Matt Cross's and Josh Abercrombie's plans? The duo calling themselves the New Wave attacked El Generico after his second round match and made it clear that if he and Kevin Steen plan on going after the tag titles they'll have to get through them first. With the tournament to crown our first ever tag team champions next month this could make for an explosive course of actions. We tried to get a hold of Steen and Generico but neither would comment on the situation. Our next card is TIGER II in two weeks time. That action will be taking place in Dayton, Ohio. Main eventing card will be the hometown hero, Chris Hero defending his title against the Japanese superstar KENTA. These two faced eachother in the second round in the championship tournament. It's going to be a fnatastic match between these two world class wrestlers. Also on the card will be "Lightning" Mike Quackenbush and Bryan Danielson. Danielson is on thin ice so this match will be vital to his bid for a title shot after his probation. Doug Williams will be in action taking on Tyler Black. Black showed he can take a massive amount of punishment this past weekend and Williams as certainly shown that he can dish out massive amounts of punishment. More maches will be announced soon, but you can believe there will be some sort of confrontation between Matt Cross and Josh abercrombie and Steen and Generico. One member of the roster won't be at TIGER II and that's Steve Corino. In his match against Doug Williams last night he took a solid punch to the jaw. Corino was sent to the hospital to get it checked out and they confirmed he had a crack in his jaw bone. Corino will be out for a few weeks but should be ready to go by next month. Will he seek revenge on Doug Williams? TIGER had a special guest last night, the Executive Director of the NWA Robert Trobich was in attendance. He was said to have been very pleased with the TIGER poduct and looks forward to seeing more of we do here in the future. Finally, TIGER Pro would like to announce a partnership with SmartMarkVideo. SmartMarkVideo will be releasing all of the TIGER shows on DVD starting with our first show, Crowning A Champion as a special DVD that has both nights of the action on it. Look for it soon at [url]www.smartmarkvideo.com[/url].

Thanks man. Im going to start writing the next show tomarrow. Over the next few shows you'll start to see feuds develop. The tag tournament show will probably be similar to the first two shows in it'll be mainly focused on the tag teams. After that I'll get into the swing of things with regular shows with promos and angles.

The Hara Arena is full of Hero supporters tonight as they get ready for his first title defense against KENTA. TIGER has a new set up for the entrance way with a ramp and lots of lights. A single light that shines the TIGER logo fades in as the house lights turn off. The fans start banging the guardrails and clapping rhythmically as the show begins. [B]Arik Cannon, "Big Rig" Brodie Lee, and "The Russian Bear" Alex Koslov vs. MASADA, Sterling James Keenan, and Kenny Omega[/B] [QUOTE]Interesting teams here for sure but six guys that really want to prove themselves. MASADA is making his debut tonight, you might know him from his time in ROH or the bloody battles he's had in Japan with BJW. He certainly isn't a stranger to doing whatever it takes to win. Each man got some time in the ring tonight the mash up of styles showed that they can work with whoever and it doesn't matter. The crowd popped huge after a big chain of moves starting with Brodie Lee nailing that signature [B]big boot[/b] of his into the face of Kenny Omega, Kennan then hit Lee with a big dropkick, Koslov rolled in and [b]german suplexed[/b] Kennan, MASADA ran and kicked Koslov in the face with both feet as he was getting up, Cannon came out of nowhere and hit the [b]glimmering warlock[/b] on MASADA and got the cover for his team.[/QUOTE] [B]Player Uno vs. Austin Adkisson[/B] [QUOTE]Two men making their debuts tonight. Player Uno is known for working a comedy style but don't be surprised to see him hit some great moves. Austin Adkisson comes from the Von Erich family, will his pedigree transfer into wins? Uno starts off the match quickly trying to catch Adkisson by surprise. Big enzugiri takes Adkisson out of the ring. Uno gets ready, runs full speed, [b]front flip senton over the top rope[/b]. Both men go crashing into the guardrail knocking fans out of chairs. For the first time a "TIGER" chant breaks out. The fans are loving this match as both guys are going all out. Adkisson starts rocking Uno with punches, knocking him into the ropes. Uno comes back through with a lariat. Uno climbs the rope, comes off looking for the [b]double stomp[/b]. Adkisson rolls out of the way and Uno crashes down to the mat. Adkisson runs over, hooks Uno's legs. [b]Texas Cloverleaf[/b]. Uno taps out.[/QUOTE] [I]A camera man catches up with Adkisson after his match.[/I] [QUOTE]You can say what you want about Player Uno, that he's a comedy wrestler, that he's a joke. I'll tell you the truth, he's a damn hard worker and gave me one hell of a match. He couldn't take the cloverleaf though and he's just the beginning of my time here. One day soon, I'll be on top. You look out for the Cloverleaf.[/QUOTE] [B]Ace Steel vs. "The Impact Bully" Brandon Thomaselli[/B] [QUOTE]These two guys were impressive at Crowning A Champion but both failed to get the titles. Steel started the match working Thomaselli's arm, trying to wear him down. He knocked down Thomaselli with a forearm and started driving his knee into Thomaselli's shoulder. Later in the match Thomaselli started to come back but spent a little too much time worrying about what the fans were saying. Steel grabbed Thomaselli from behind and locked in a half nelson and took him over with a [b]suplex[/b]. Thomaselli rolls out and gets back up as if it didn't faze him but Steel puts him right back down with a lariat. Cover only gets a two. Steel wants to finish him off with the [b]Twist Of Cain[/b] but can't get it. Thomaselli butterflies Steels arms but can't get him up. Steel gets shoved by Thomaselli into referee Brian Hebner. Thomaselli hits a [b]low blow[/b] on Steel and rolls him up. Hebner gets over to make the cover. Thomaselli steals one. [I]After the match Thomaselli blindsides Steel while he's pleading his case to the ref. Thomaselli gets Steel back up and butterflies the arms, lifts him straight up, and crashes him down onto both knees. Steel is laid out after the McGillicutty.[/I][/QUOTE] [B]The New Wave vs. Cheech and Cloudy[/B] [QUOTE]The New Wave make their way out to a chorus of boos. These know what they did to their beloved El Generico. Cheech and Cloudy come out to a nice reaction. The match starts with all four men battling in the ring. Eventually two spill out to the floor and keep brawling. Cross and Cloudy are left in the ring. Cross starts off with some nice arm drags and takes Cloudy down with a [b]Deju Vu[/b], two spins around the body before the headscissors. Abercrombie throws Cheech into the guardrail and runs back towards the ring. He Hops up on the apron and springboards into the ring. What a [b]springboard legdrop[/b] from Abercrombie onto Cloudy. The New Wave play up towards the crowd and just get booed. Cheech comes back into the ring and meets the Matt with a DDT from Cross. Abercrombie goes back towards Cloudy and picks him up. Cross and Abercrombie look at each other and nod. Abercrombie drills Cloudy with the [b]Abercrombie N' Flinch[/b] and Cross hooks Cheech in a front facelock looking for another DDT but instead runs backwards up the turnbuckles and [b]flips forward with a DDT[/b]. I've never seen that before, it's almost like a DDT version of the Canadian Destroyer. Both men cover their opponents. One two and Three.[/QUOTE] [I]Matt Cross grabs a mic.[/i] [quote][i]"In two weeks, Abercrombie and I are taking those tag belts. Seven other teams are coming but those seven teams will fail. The New Wave has risen, we control the fates on that night. We control our destiny, those tag titles. We... OH ****" Steen and Generico have run out from the back into the ring and start trading punches with Cross and Abercrombie. Steen hooks Cross and hits a Steenalizer into the turnbuckle. He might have a broken neck. Generico splats Abercrombie's head over the mat with a brainbuster. Steen and Generico climb the tunbuckles as a "Steen and Generico" chant breaks out. Steen grabs a mic.[/i] "Two weeks guys, two weeks and this **** ends." [/QUOTE] [B]"The Southern Saint" Oren Hawx vs. Chuck Taylor vs. Tyler Black[/B] [QUOTE]Oren Hawx and Tyler Black met in the first round of the championship tournament, a fast paced match that Hawx felt was stolen from him. Taylor has found himself back on the right path after beating Alex Koslov two weeks ago. These three are certainly the future of this company, young and hungry. The match started off at a relaxed pace, no one really wanted to pull out anything big in fear of having the match won from under them. Black got things going with a [b]double suplex[/b] on both men. He quickly tried to capitalize with a Phoenix splash but missed and hit hard. Taylor took control of Hawx and impacted him hard with a [b]running jumping piledriver[/b]. That set him up for trying to end things with the Omega Driver but couldn't get it done. Elbows from Hawx broke it up. Hawx put Taylor up on the ropes and tried to superplex him off. Taylor pushed him off and took flight with a flying press. Instead of going for the cover he sprung to his feet in time to miss a Black lariat. Kick to the gut... [b]Omega Driver[/b] on Black. That's gotta be it. Hawx comes out of literally nowhere with a [b]missile dropkick to the back of Taylors head[/b]. Covers him and gets the pin. Hawx went undetected to the top rope while Taylor hit the Omega Driver on Black. Oren Hawx steals this one. Something tells me it's not over between these three.[/QUOTE] [B]Davey Richards vs. "The Human Torture Device" Doug Williams[/B] [QUOTE]Doug Williams could still be feeling the effects of his absolute wars two weeks ago. By the end of the night he could barely walk. Richards had a tough contest last weekend but he seems to be at 100%. Short match between these two. Richards dominated through most of it. His kicks to the legs, mid section, and head of Williams wore him down for sure. he focused on the legs to take advantage of Williams wear and tear. A [b]single leg crab[/b] looked as if that was the clincher for Richards but Williams got to the ropes. Richards went right back to the leg though with a low dropkick. Williams slammed to the mat and yelled out in agony. Richards picked him up and hit the [b]DR Driver[/b]. Couldn't pin him though. Williams still has some left in the tank. Richards tries for another DR Driver but this time he can't get it. Williams uses all of the strength in his weakened legs to flip Richards over. He locks on the [b]Iron Maiden[/b]. He can't cinch it in though. His legs are to weak to get the leverage he needs. Instead Williams suplexes him over with a [b]Cobra Clutch Suplex[/b]. Davey Richards is out. Cover... 1 2 and 3.[/QUOTE] [I]Williams kicks Richards out of te ring and demands a microphone.[/i][QUOTE]"Steve Corino, where are you? I'm standing right here. Instead of getting you I have to deal with this nobody. I know exactly where you are, sitting at home. Too scared to come face the man who broke your jaw. From what I hear you'll be ready to go next month. So how about it? Four weeks time, after the Tag show. I'll do more than break your jaw pal."[/QUOTE] [I]Backstage we see Chris Hero taping up his wrists getting ready for his title match with KENTA.[/I] [QUOTE]"Everyone wants to know what I'm going to do about Bryan Danielson, what I'm going to say about him. I'm not going to say anything. This isn't the time. I've got one of the biggest matches in my career tonight. This gold around my waist shows that I'm the best this company has to offer. KENTA, you've come a long way, and so have I. You gave me a hell of a fight two weeks ago. Tonight it's just one on one. I expect your best, because your getting mine. Good luck."[/QUOTE] [B]"Lightning" Mike Quackenbush vs. "The Self Proclaimed Best In The World" Bryan Danielson[/B] [QUOTE]Bryan Danielson comes out to a massive amount of boos. No one even sings along with his entrance music. Quack comes out to a big pop and a "Lets go Quack" chant. These guys have met before in great matches, tonight would be no different. Danielson shook his probation out of his mind and focused on Quackenbush. Quack went toe to toe with Danielson and matched him move for move with his deep arsenal of counters and takedowns. Quack locked Danielson up tight with a [b]hurricanrana[/b] but couldn't get the pin. Danielson countered with a tight small package but he couldn't pin Quack. Back to their feet Quack started raining down open hand palm strikes and leg kicks. Danielson countered with a roaring elbow that sent Quack to the corner. Monkey flip by Danielson lead to a [b]running knee strike[/b]. Danielson is looking for Cattle Mutilation but can't get it, Quack wrapped his legs around the bottom rope. Danielson decides instead of hit [b]elbows[/b] forcing Quack away from the ropes. Quack uses his agility to kick Danielson in the face to stop the elbows. Looking for the [b]CHIKARA Special[/b], can't get it. Danielson slides out. Looking for a [b]Dragon Suplex[/b]. No. Quack lands on his feet. [b]Lariat[/b] attempt by Danielson missed. Quack tries for a [b]leg lariat[/b], misses. Danielson hits hard with a [b]super kick[/b]. Quack is down. [b]Cattle Mutilation[/b]. Quack taps. Danielson picks up a hard fought win.[/QUOTE] [I]Danielson has left the ring as Quack gets up and the fans cheer for his effort. "Quack, Quack, Quack". Roderick Strong starts walking down to the ring with mic in hand. [/I] [QUOTE]Mike, wow. What a match. These fans obviously love you here. Me on the other hand, I flat our hate you. You represent everything I hate. You're a cartoon character. This isn't comic books, this is wrestling. [/QUOTE] [I]Quack stands looking confused at Strong trying to reason with him.[/I] [QUOTE]"I'm sorry Quackenbush but you've gotta leave."[/QUOTE] [I]Strong hits Quack with a boot to the gut and butterflies him. OW what a backbreaker. Strong snaps Quackenbush's surgically repaired back over his knee. Strong leaves the ring with a wide grin on his face.[/I] [B]Chris Hero vs. KENTA[/B] [i]"The following match is your main event and it is for the TIGER Pro Championship. This match is scheduled for one fall with a 60 minute time limit and is sanctioned by the TIGER Championship Committee. The man in charge is TIGER Head Referee Bryce Remsburg. Bryce Remsburg takes the belt and presents it to both KENTA and Hero before presenting it to the four sides of the crowd. Standing to my left, the challenger. From Soka, Saitama, Japan. He stands at 174cm, and weighs in tonight at 81kg. He is KENNNNNNNNTAAAAA. And standing to my right, the champion. From Metropolis. He stand at six feet five inches tall and weighs in tonight at 240lbs. He is Chrissssssss Heeeeeroooooooo."[/i] [QUOTE]The match begins with both Hero and KENTA shaking hands. Both men trade holds and work a nice ground game. Every time the get back to their feet the crowd erupts in applause. The match picks up as KENTA hits a very nice series of [b]snap suplexes[/b]. While Hero is down on the mat KENTA kicks him in the face and struts away. The fans love his ****iness. Hero gets back to his feet and heads towards KENTA who has his back turned. Hero locks in a [b]cravate[/b] and the fans go ballistic. Hero snaps KENTA over with a cravate-plex and grapevines his leg [b]twisting KENTA ankle[/b]. KENTA is trying to wiggle free but Hero scoots back towards the middle of the ring. KENTA finally rolls over on his stomach, tuning Hero as well. He uses this oppertunity to kick down with his free foot at the hands of Hero breaking the hold. KENTA tries to shake some feeling back into his leg but Hero keeps up the pace with a big forearm smash. Hero DDT's KENTA but brins him right back up only to put him right back down with a Cravate-Buster. Hero pulls KENTA towards the apron and leaves him laying on his back with his head just outside of the ropes. Hero stands above KENTA and flips over the top rope in a [b]front flip manner and double stomps right on KENTA's head[/b]. Hero plays to the crowd on the outside who burst into a "Chris is awesome" chant. Later on back in the ring things get really heated. KENTA and Hero are trading open hand slaps that fade into punches that fade into forearms that fade into elbows that fade into elbows. KENTA connects with a massive elbow that starts his signature rush. Hero is on wobbly legs as KENTA runs past him and back. [b]BUSAIKU KNEE KICK[/b]. Hero is down. Cover 1...2...no. Hero kicks out. Back to his feet Hero blocks a high kick by KENTA and lifts him up on his shoulders. Hero is looking for go to sleep but can't get it. KENTA frees himself and looks for another kick. Block again by Hero. [b]Hero's Welcome[/b]! He doesn't cover him. He drags KENTA to the corner and climbs up. Hero must be looking for a double stomp to put the nail in the coffin. KENTA rises up from the dead and runs up the turnbuckles. [b]AVALANCHE FALCON ARROW[/b]! KENTA can't cover him. Hero hit the mat so hard he fell out of the ring. KENTA is laying down trying to regain his breath. Bryce Remsburg is starting his ten count. Hero rolls back into the ring around the count of eight. Both men are on their knees striking one another. Both men are rocking the other with punches. They finally get back to their feet and KENTA cuts off Hero with a knee and rack him up on his shoulders. Is KENTA going for a burning hammer? [b]INVERTED GO TO SLEEP[/b]! KENTA drove his knee into the back of Hero's head. Cover... 1... 2... NO! SHADES OF HIS LAST MATCH HERO KICKS OUT! KENTA is furious. He's looking for another Go To Sleep. He can't hit it. Hero locks onto KENTA throat and whips him over his hip. Hero rolls over KENTA's back and locks in the [b]Hangmans Clutch II[/b]. Kenta is refusing to tap. Remsburg is checking on KENTA's condition. He's still not tapping. Hero is wrenching back but how strong can the hold be with the fatigue set in. Hero breaks the hold and locks in the original [b]Hangman's Clutch[/b]. KENTA still not tapping out. He's fading fast though. Remsburg is trying to get a response from KENTA but he seems to be out. Remsburg has called the match. Hero retains his title.[/QUOTE] [I]Danielson steps out from the back and stands at the entrance way. [quote]"Chris Hero... I may not be able to get my hands on you right now but soon. Four weeks, I suggest you get ready. I just got word in the back. It's me and Doug Williams against you and Steve Corino. And if Corino isn't healed up by then, guess your on your own. Your end is near. You'll tap out just like the rest of them."[/quote][/I]

Photobucket [B]FINAL NEWSBLOG LEADING INTO TAG TEAM SUPREMECY[/B] With the tag teams set for this Sunday's show you know it's going to be a crazy night. One question is, will any of the new teams making their debut stick around after the tournament is done? After the tag tournament is done this weekend a special exibition match will take place to be taped for the tag tournament dvd. It'll appear as a bonus feature. KENTA will take on Roderick Strong. The Showdown In Beantown is shaping up to be our most loaded show yet. We've just signed a grudge match between Roderick Strong and Mike Quackenbush. Strong attacked Quack after his match at our last show. Quack had some strong words for Strong when we talked to him about the incident. Ausin Aries is said to be very excited about making his TIGER debut against Taiji Ishimori. He said it's a great oppertunity to show that he can hang in there toe to toe against the best international talent. Will Aries stick around to face the best TIGER has to offer? The new tag team champions, to be decided this Sunday night, will defend those titles at the Boston show. Finally, as an update to a story we've been following TIGER Pro owner Steven Richards said he will make an announcement regarding the questions surrounding the NWA talks.

The New Alhambra Arena is totally sold out tonight. The fans are rabid in anticipation for the matches tonight. The house lights dim, the TIGER logo appears on the wall. It's time. [I]The New Wave of Matt Cross and Josh Abercrombie make their way to the ring. Abercrombie has a microphone.[/I] [QUOTE]Two weeks ago Kevin Steen and El Generico you saw fit to come after us when we told you not to. You just don't listen. I can't tell if you're deaf or just plain stupid. Stupidity is the only reason why you would want to come after us. When we finally meet in the ring, your careers won't ever be the same again. Cross and I plan on ending them tonight.[/QUOTE] [B]First Round Match SoCal Dream Team vs. Cheech and Cloudy[/B] [QUOTE]Super Dragon and B-Boy are making their TIGER debuts tonight coming from the west coast. Neither man is a stranger to this building though. They've had some epic battles here. Super Dragon got things started off hot by raining down chops and elbows on Cheech. He beat him around like a rag doll. Dragon grabs hold of Cheech's head and starts kicking him in the face. He throws him to the ground and proceeds to [b]stomp the life out of him[/b]. Cloudy enters the ring to stop it but B-Boy runs forward and nails Cloudy in the face with a forearm. The ref restores order and Cloudy is the legal man for his team, B-Boy for his. Cloudy starts to swing things in his favor with a dropkick followed by a dragon kick to the spine of B-Boy. Cloudy suplexes him and presses him with a [b]standing moonsault[/b]. Cover only gets a two. B-Boy backs up to the corner and makes a tag to Dragon. Low dropkick takes out the legs of Cloudy. Dragon climbs the ropes and comes off with a wicked [b]double stomp[/b] to the back of Cloudy's head. Cheech has regained himself and comes running at Dragon taking him down with lariat. He keeps running and knocks B-Boy off the apron. B-Boy lands hard on the guardrail and might be out of this match. Cloudy and Cheech pick up Dragon and take him over with a nice double suplex. The ref makes Cheech leave the ring as he's not the legal man. Cloudy hooks Dragon with a front face lock and backs into the corner. Tag by Cloudy and Cheech comes in. Cheech takes over the front facelock and Cloudy climbs the ropes looking to end the match. Dragon breaks the hold and shoves Cloudy [b]off the top rope to the floor[/b]. The fans break into a "Holy ****" chant. Dragon with a kick to Cheech's face. Grabs hold of him and [b]PSYCHO DRIVER[/b]! Cover. 1..2..3. [I]B-Boy throws Cloudy back into the ring and hits him with an exploder. Dragon takes down Cloudy with another Psycho Driver. These two have made an impression with this match.[/I] [/QUOTE] [B]First Round Match The New Wave vs. Los Luchas[/B] [QUOTE]The New Wave come out looking as confident as can be. Los Luchas follow with the NWA Tag Team title around their waists. Could they become dual champions tonight? The match starts off with Zokre and Matt Cross in the ring. The exchange strikes and take downs, nothing really comes of it. A nice moment comes when Cross gets whipped into the corner and Zokre gets down on all fours in front of him when Phoenix Star comes running forward, launches himself off his partners back and lands a beautiful [b]dropkick to the face[/b] of Matt Cross. The tide turns though when Josh Abercrombie chop blocks the leg of Pheonix Star. He starts stomping away before locking in a sleeper hold. He's trying to end things right now by taking away the air in Star's lungs. All of a sudden he releases the hold and that's when Cross falls from the sky with a [b]shooting star press[/b]. He pops up and runs towards the ropes, dives over, and takes out Zokre with a plancha. Abercrombie brings Phoenix Star to his legs and drills him with the [b]Tom Selleck[/b] driver, a move he's renamed The Rising Tide. Cover gets the victory. After the match the New Wave calmly leave the ring as their opponents lie beaten down. Abercrombie and Cross grab hold of the NWA belts and pose with them before tossing them on the bodies of Phoenix Star and Zokre.[/QUOTE] [I]Karl Anderson and Joey Ryan are back stage.[/I] [QUOTE]Tonight we face "Japans Best". They might be the best in Japan, but your new American heroes are the best in the U.S. And when it comes to wrestling, being the best in the U.S is all that matters. You'll see that tonight, no doubt about it. Magnum and the Machine Gun don't lose often, and don't lose easily.[/QUOTE] [B]First Round Match Taiji Ishimori & Kota Ibushi vs. "The Machine Gun" Karl Anderson and "Joey "Magnum" Ryan[/B] [QUOTE]Two teams making their debuts here in TIGER. Anderson and Ryan are former NWA World Tag Team champions while Ibushi and Ishimori usually find themselves on opposite ends of the ring in Japan for Pro Wrestling NOAH. They seemed to really click tonight as they brought the fight to Ryan and Anderson. Anderson hit a big powerbomb on Ibushi to keep him down but it wasn't for long as he got back to his feet and snap a [b]big kick[/b] off against Anderson's head. Ibushi comes in after the tag, runs forward and lays out with a big senton across the chest of Anderson. Ryan tries to get in but the ref stops him.

[B]From the TIGER News Blog[/B] Photobucket [SIZE="5"]FALLOUT FROM TAG TEAM SUPREMECY, BEANTOWN SHOWDOWN PREVIEW, SCOTT HALL, DEBUT IN CT[/SIZE] The tag team tournament last night did not end the way TIGER had planned on it. With a tournament to crown champions one would expect a team to hold those titles at the end of the night. Instead we saw our finalists The New Wave and Steen and Generico get themselves disqualified after referee Bryce Remsburg was hit in the head by two chairs. TIGER officials have decided that in four weeks these two teams will meet in a no disqualifications match. There must be a winner that night. We at TIGER would like to send our condolences to the family of Scott Hall. Hall passed away last week at his home in Florida. The Showdown in Beantown is just 13 days away. Headlining the event is a tag team match between Steve Corino and Chris Hero against Bryan Danielson and Doug Williams. Tensions have brewed between these four since our very first show. Expect this one to be a hard hitting match. More matches to be announced this week. Roderick Strong attacked Mike Quackenbush two weeks ago and no one seems to know why. These two are facing each other in Boston and we're all hoping the match will answer our questions. A special international challenge match is taking place in Boston between Austin Aries and Taiji Ishimori. Aries is looking to make an impact here in TIGER and Ishimori wants to bounce back after failing to capture the tag titles this past weekend. We don't know is Aries is sticking around as an active roster member or not but he would certainly be a welcomed addition to our roster. Finally, TIGER Pro makes their debut in CT in four weeks. Uncrowned is the name of the event and will be headlined by Steen and Generico vs. The New Wave. More matches to be announced in the coming weeks. Signed for the event so far are: Chris Hero, Bryan Danielson, Doug Williams, Tyler Black, Oren Hawx, Steve Corino, Chuck Taylor, Austin Adkisson, Kota Ibushi.

Some of you may also know that members of the NWA board have been coming to our shows and talking to me. There have been a lot of rumors going around about what all of this means. Well I'm here to put the rumors to rest. Robert Trobich, the director of the NWA approached me and offered us here at TIGER a spot within the NWA. Representing the tri state area. It would have made us the largest member of the NWA and made us the sole owners of the NWA World Tag Team championships. I thought about his offer long and hard and I'm here to give you my response Mr. Trobich. My response is no Mr. Trobich. TIGER is my creation and it will remain that way. The NWA doesn't deserve to take my company away from me. Take my hard work and turn it in to another low level promotion. So you all sitting here, in this building, TIGER is here to stay.

[B]From the TIGER News Blog[/B] Photobucket We're just a few days away from our debut in Wallingford, CT with Uncrowned. The main event of The New Wave vs. Steen and Generico is highly anticipated. The match will be the first No DQ match in TIGER history and with the way these teams beat on each other it's going to be beyond crazy. Josh Abercrombie tried to burn Kevin Steen and you know Steen is looking for revenge. Last week Abercrombie pushed El Generico off the top rope through a table almost ending his career. Steen and Generico are looking for blood. Chris Hero will be missing Uncrowned to heal from some nagging injuries. Those injuries became real problems after the match he at in Boston last week. When Hero was slammed in to steel steps his shoulder came out of place and he wrestled the rest of the match with a partially dislocated shoulder. Steve Corino tells us he has a message for Doug Williams at Uncrowned. These two seem to be speeding towards a singles matchup and only time will tell when that happens. Corino has to face Bryan Danielson this weekend which will prove to be quite the challenge as Danielson isn't above cheating to win. Finally, At Uncrowned we will be having a four way tag team match to determine the number one contenders for the tag titles. The participants are: The Naptown Dragons, The SoCal Dream Team, Cheech and Cloudy, and Los Luchas. The Naptown Dragons have made it clear that they feel like they can be an elite team in TIGER. Winning this match will certainly back those claims up. TIGER

i'm really loving this, and mad props for bringing in Uno. I like the fact that this isn't just like RoH-lite, and you're bringing in some really quality people from the smaller promotions who aren't usually initially thought of when people think of US indy wrestling. People like Cheech & Cloudy, the Naptown Dragons, Quack, and Chuckie T. The graphics are all fantastic, the write-ups are great, and I'm really enjoying this. Can I suggest that, if you extend out the Strong/Quack feud, that we have a Teacher/Student tag match? Possibly Quack/Kingston vs. Strong/Stevens? I think that match would be SO sick. Two thumbs up though man, keep up the amazing work.

Thanks man I appreciate it. Stevens has been signed by the WWE in my game so I doubt that'll happen plus thats a big FIP/ROH thing, I want to do my own feuds for the most part. The WWE has actually signed a lot of guys including Jimmy Jacobs. The roster is pretty much set right now as I have lots of guys to use when I need a random guy or keep them on the backburner to figure something out. I've got a good idea on the 2nd wave of feuds after these finish up. You'll probably find some of the write ups are better than other because some matches are more fun to write. Writing the New Wave and Doug Williams is quite fun.

Converted T-Zone with some changes to update things. I also took out a TON of companies so the game would weigh down too much. The WWE didn't release anyone but signed about 25 people to developmental deals and at least half have gotten called up. They signed a lot of ROH guys and some international guys like Ricky Banderas. One company, ICWA is going to close soon I imagine as on the news screen they keep talking about their financial problems. Also OVW keeps trying to sign all my guys.
