Mid Atlantic Wrestling: Not Just Another Feeder League


Recommended Posts

Alphaville vs Fforde and DM&G

Bold call, but Alphaville need to be portrayed as a threat and the faces are strong enough that they can take a loss, with little enough going on that they don't need the win

 

Frankie Boy Fernandes vs Josh Jacob's

Poor JJ, forever a jobber to the stars

MAW Night Of The Champions 2020

Fri, Wk 4, Dec 2020

 

Opening Match

COTT Trios Championship Match

Six-person Tag Team Match

30-Minute Time Limit

 

Alphaville (Duke Freeman, Guillotine & Paris Burnett) vs Miller Fforde & DeMarcus & Gray

Assuming these are COTT Alliance titles and not MAW-controlled titles, Freeman, Gillotine, and Burnett can't defend them on non-MAW shows, so while I think Alphaville needs to be established strong, it would strike me as odd for them to win belts that they couldn't defend outside of the company; however, if they are just COTT branded MAW belts, then I can definitely see them winning!

Blaze has held the belt over a year now, it's probably time for him to lose it.

Alphaville (Duke Freeman, Guillotine & Paris Burnett) vs Miller Fforde & DeMarcus & Gray

As someone else said, I don't see developmental workers winning alliance titles

 

Frankie-Boy Fernandes vs Josh Jacobs

Fernandes is one of your top guys

 

Devil May Care vs The Past Masters ©

I will never not root for the Masters

 

Young & Wasted vs The Wolf Pack ©

I prefer the Wolf Pack

 

Seth Whitehead w/Harvey Robbinfield vs Bradley Blaze

It's a good way to put Alphaville over

 

Bonus Prediction: Who will lay down a challenge for the soon to be renamed Mid Atlantic American title on the show?: I'm gonna say Harvey Robbinfield

But the daredevil used his agility to dodge the attack, causing Sandman Winks to strike to post and hurt himself in the process.</p><p> • Meanwhile in the ring The Historian was refusing to break a hold at the referee’s count of five and shouted “disqualify me then” at the official, but his anger provided enough of a distraction for Simon Ice to hit him with a low blow which went either unnoticed or ignored by the referee.</p><p> • Realising that there was no easy way out of the match, The Past Masters settled into their usual controlling groove of wearing down one member of the opposing team and cutting the ring in half.</p><p> • DMC used their speed to avoid being caught in the ring for too long at a time, making tags as frequently as possible but both men were being worn down much more than their brief flurries of offence effected their opponents.</p><p> • This led to Simon Ice getting caught in the ring after The Historian pulled Acid II off the apron and threw him into the ring steps. Ice fought valiantly but ended up trapped in the Deep Sleep sleeperhold and passed out.</p><p> • In a bout that had good heat and decent wrestling, The Past Masters defeated Devil May Care in 16:19 when Sandman Winks submitted Simon Ice with a Deep Sleep after blatantly cheating.

When nothing blocks a picture of Sandman Winks can be seen taped to the punching bag.

The two skipped the usual collar and elbow tie-up which would begin a traditional Mid Atlantic Championship match and instead went hell for leather right when the opening bell rang.</p><p> • Things slowed down once Seth Whitehead took control, he focused his assault on the shoulder of Bradley Blaze, attempting to capitalise on the broken collarbone Alphaville caused during their attack at the end of Where It All Begins Again.</p><p> • Whitehead spent much of the early stages jostling for position to lock in the Minnesota Stretch, but Blaze had it well scouted and countered each time, although he struggled to build momentum as Whitehead continued to punish him.</p><p> • Blaze did manage to break out of an abdominal stretch and build a head of steam with a series of running clotheslines to the challenger, he went for an early Dallas Drop but Whitehead escaped by aiming a series of elbow strikes at the right collarbone of the champion.</p><p> • The match progressed similarly for a while, with each man seeing periods of control and wearing down the other, however the well-known poor stamina of the champion was beginning to take hold as he was visibly struggling to catch his breath.</p><p> • This culminated in Blaze attempting to life Whitehead for the Dallas Drop and fell back, bumping into the referee and knocking him out of the ring. As soon as the referee hit the floor, Harvey Robbinfield jumped onto the apron and the rest of Alphaville came down the ramp and encircled the ring.</p><p> • Blaze challenged them all to come into the ring and come they did as both Harvey Robbinfield and Duke Freeman climbed in on either side of Blaze.</p><p> • Blaze managed to fight them both off, hitting Robbinfield with a Dallas Drop and Freeman with a clothesline over the top rope.</p><p> • Next came Paris Burnett, the largest man on the MAW roster who had not been lifted since joining in March. Blaze fought valiantly, but the size of Burnett was too much for him. However, much to the disappointed of John Graham Chambers, Blaze hit a low blow on Burnett, sending him rolling out of the ring.</p><p> • Exhausted, beaten and with little left in the tank, the champion turned around to finally face the man he was supposed to be wrestling the entire time and with the speed of a falling blade Guillotine caught the champion with the Sideswipe Knee.</p><p> • He slid out of the ring and helped the referee to his feet and back inside just in time for the referee to see Blaze passed out in the Minnesota Stretch.</p><p> • In a bout that had good heat and decent wrestling, Seth Whitehead defeated Bradley Blaze in 22:25 by submission with a Minnesota Stretch after interference from Guillotine. During the match we also saw Duke Freeman run in and attack Blaze, and Harvey Robbinfield also attack Blaze, and Paris Burnett also attack Blaze.

Mid Atlantic Wrestling Yearly Rankings

 

The following is the win/loss record for all full-time members of the Mid Atlantic Wrestling Roster on Monday, Week 1 of January 2021. These results will be used to determine tournament entry for MAW roster members as well as allow the fans to know how their favourites are performing under the MAW banner year-on-year.

 

Results are ordered Win-Loss-Draw, a green record is positive, a red record is negative and an orange record is neutral. This will allow fans to take results in at a glance, while allowing for a more in-depth reflection on a worker's year.

I'll take 3rd place <img alt=":)" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/smile.png.142cfa0a1cd2925c0463c1d00f499df2.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> Sad to see FBF leave, and with the recent form of Fforde & Cheetah Boy being poor, I think MAW is in dire need of credible babyface threats.

“What did you say it did again?”</p><p> </p><p>

“The scanner says it is something they call ‘professional wrestling’, or ‘rasslin’. It is some kind of performance art in which two warriors create the appearance of battle while attempting to hurt each other as little as possible so as to perform as many times as possible.”</p><p> </p><p>

“Ah, so these humans have advanced beyond the need for war and violence and have moved to enjoying performance arts instead?”</p><p> </p><p>

“No, I’m afraid they do still have war as well. According to the scanner the humans also have performance arts depicting the horrors of war and they base them on the real wars they fight.”</p><p> </p><p>

“Ah, a great shame then, that they are not ready for us to share out technologies. But tell me again about this human, why did the ship pick it up?”</p><p> </p><p>

“Apparently it has some kind of rudimentary radio apparatus that sends signals into nearby space. The ship happened to detect one of these signals and now here it is.”</p><p> </p><p>

“Should we keep it? It would be cruel to send it back after it has learned that its planet is not the only one that harbours life.”</p><p> </p><p>

“Actually, it has not woken up from its required sleeping state since reaching the ship.”</p><p> </p><p>

“But does the stellar teleportation not cause- “</p><p> </p><p>

“Serious physical discomfort for any creature with a skeletal system yes. But it seemed to just release a noise and continue to sleep.”</p><p> </p><p>

“So, we can’t keep it?”</p><p> </p><p>

“No, we can’t keep it.”</p><p> </p><p>

Duke Freeman awoke in his bed the following morning with a dull ache in his neck, the kind one might have after sleeping awkwardly the night before. He made a mental note to keep better track of his sleeping position, a sore neck was not conducive of solid in-ring work. He got out of bed, went to the fridge and drank orange juice from the carton before brushing his teeth and going about his day as normal.</p>

“Right boys, you’ve really impressed me with your work over in Puerto Rico, you’ve got a lot of promise but tonight your job is to make my guys look good, you got that?” Sam Keith was as stern as ever when informing incoming talent of their responsibilities, especially those who had gained minor success in the Confederation, lest they get ideas above their station.

 

“It’s Puerto Rico, no Puerto Rico.” Taylor Norton replied in his near-offensively casual way.

 

Sam Keith raised an eyebrow at the correction. “What was that, kid?” He ensured to put an emphasis on that last word. Taylor was not only above his station, but above his age bracket too.

 

“Well, with all due respect, the fact you’re saying it wrong, and probably have said it wrong forever is just a little annoying is all.” Taylor replied.

 

Sam’s face turned a tinge red and through gritted teeth he said, “That’s annoying is it?”

 

Bret Kyle interjected before he and his partner found themselves without a job for the night, “I’m sorry sir, Taylor is just concerned with respect for the Hispanic peoples of central America. But don’t worry sir, we know what we have to do tonight.”

 

Sam left the two there without another word and stomped off to go check on the any number of things he had to do before the show began. Bret turned to Taylor; anger etched across his pretty face.

 

“What the Hell was that man? Are you looking to get us fired? This isn’t consequence free work here. If we mess this up, it could follow us for our whole careers.”

 

Taylor chortled at his partner’s concern. “Don’t worry about it man, I’m just having a good time, just shooting the sh*t with the boss. It’s called building a rapport Bret, you know that.”

 

“Didn’t look like much of a rapport to me,” Bret muttered under his breath.

 

“Speaking of a good time,” Taylor continued, “How about you help me get a number off that pretty little interviewer they have here.”

 

“DeAnna? I’m pretty sure she’s dating one of the guys here dude.”

 

“Yeah, yeah she can keep dating him. But there’s nothing stopping her from grabbing a drink with me, you get me man?”

 

“I don’t even know if she’s old enough to drink” Bret sighed.

 

“Then she can have a drink with me at the hotel room, I’m sure you can find a way to entertain yourself while we’re… drinking.”

Bret shook his head and walked away from his partner, a brief “Whatever, dude” was all he could muster in the fact of Taylor’s plan.

TopRopeElbow.com Quarterly Report: Q4 2020

 

This quarter has been fairly quiet for the big-spending USPW, with the exception of one notable signing. James Justice, Andre Jones, Mick Muscles and Danny Jillefski left the company, likely to free up money for the massive signing of El Leon from EILL. The man who many expected to carry the company off the back of Champagne Lover leaving the business will be a huge loss for the Mexican giants. Past EILL signing Hijo del Águila Americana managed to win the USPW National title this quarter as well.

 

SWF made two high profile signings this quarter as former TCW World champion Jay Chord, and former COTT World Heavyweight champion Ant-Man joined the company. We also saw 45-year-old Jack Marlowe, known to many as Jungle Lord leave the company. SWF then moved up the company rankings to Large size, leapfrogging USPW who notably fell to Medium size last quarter. Wrestler of the year, Remo won the SWF World Heavyweight title and The Awesomeness won the SWF World Tag Team titles.

 

In an attempt to stem the bleeding of talent departures during 2020 TCW signed both Frankie-Boy Fernandes and TCW dojo graduate Aldous Blackfriar. The company said goodbye to Joel Bryant, Chance Fortune and Eddie Peak, making it clear that a youth movement could be on the way in the company. It hasn’t been all good for the US number 3 as their Total Wrestling weekly show was moved to a lesser timeslot on ACE. In on-screen news, Wolf Hawkins won his second King of Kings tournament, Freddy Huggins won the TCW Television title, Jay Chord won the TCW World Heavyweight title two weeks before moving to SWF, vacated it upon leaving the company and Killer Shark won the title, Bart Biggins and T-Bone Bright won the TCW World Tag Team titles.

 

Title changes are the only news to report from EILL this quarter as Ultra Spark Jr. won the Campeonato de México EILL title and South American Thunder (Cerebro and Capitao Brasil Jr,) won the Campeonatos de Parejas EILL titles.

 

Johnny Bloodstone was released as a cost-cutting measure, a sign of the times for CWA who find themselves over 3-million dollars in debt moving into 2021. Additional cost-cutting measures have been deployed as the company have moved to pre-taping shows in blocks in order to reduce production costs. In championship news, the odd pairing pf Jack DeColt and Erik Strong won the Tag Team Grand Prix, George Wolfe won the CWA Television title, Jared Johnson won the CWA World title, and The Dynamite Express (Cameron Jones and Syd Collier) won back the CWA Tag Team Titles.

 

The signing spree has slowed down for BHOTWG but seems far from over as Kadonomaro Kamisaka, Motoichi Arakida, BISON Yano and 6 dojo graduates have joined the company’s ranks. Elemental II left the company, and, Sensational Dragon won the BHOTWG Junior Heavyweight Championship,

 

Two departures from PGHW this quarter as Yugoro Adachi left following contract expiry and following an unknown incident Mighty Cavanagh walked out on the company right before a show. Their only signing has been Yauyuik Terakado who is joining from 5SSW and EX2010. In title news, Seiji Jimbo and Kozue Kawashima won the PGHW Elite Tag Team Series, The Ring Generals (Dean Waldorf and Marv Statler) won the PGHW Glory Tag Crown titles and Gonnohyoe Kada won the PGHW Historical Japanese title,.

 

No signings for 21CW as Phoebe Plumridge, Stevie Smith and Rolling Johnny Stones left the company while The Chaos Connection (Wade Orson and Sebastian Koller) won the 21st Century Tag Team titles and Apollo Prince won the 21st Century United Kingdom title.

 

Australian giants RAW have seen a few departures as Blake Belushi and Joe Zucco left the company. The two spots on the roster were filled with the signing of Monday Next and Crazy Train. All three company titles changed hands in this time as, Montgomery Croft won the RAW Quest title, Modern Warriors (Captain Wrestling II and Kerry Wayne) won the RAW Tag Team titles and Rahmel Goode won the RAW Television title.

 

Title changes are the only news from the COTT as Alphaville (Duke Freeman, Guillotine and Paris Burnett) won the COTT Trios titles, Frantic Ali won the COTT World Heavyweight title and Evil Intent (Slayyer and Hellspawn 666) won the COTT World Tag Team titles. This means that the third set of tag champions in a row are from Mexico’s OLLIE which is said to be the major reason the decision to make three TCW workers the first Trios champions didn’t ruffle feathers with the Mexican promotion.

 

In retirement news Brett Fraiser, Power Girl, Raven Nightfall and Harumi Okazawaya have all retired from in-ring competition. This caps off what can be seen as a sad year in women’s wrestling as many of the former AAA veterans have chosen to retire having been left jobless on the independent scene. On top of this, Al The Hillbilly, Rogue Matsuo SF and Mammoth have all left the business completely to enjoy retirement. The list of injuries expected to last a year or more reads: Leaf LeBaum, Hyosuke Kokan, T-Rex, Joey Morgan, and Debbie Rose.

 

This brings us then to the end of year awards, voted for by you, the fans. Wrestler of the Year was Remo. Tag Team of the Year was Double Top (Remo and Valiant). Young Wrestler of the Year was David Stone. Veteran Wrestler of the Year was The Crippler. Female Wrestler of the Year was Alicia Strong. Indie Wrestler of the Year was Razan Okamoto.

Non-MAW Entrants</span></span></strong></p><p> </p><p>

Number 1</p><p>

<img alt="tOxHIy0.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/tOxHIy0.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p><p>

After a series of strong performances in his native Canada, former ACPW Canadian Regional Champion Hudson Drake is the first entrant announced for this year’s RCI. Coming into 2021 with a respectable 6-4 win/loss record could this be the year when Drake breaks out in the US? This will be Drake’s second Invitational, having entered one while under contract with 4C half a decade ago, so knowledge of the competition and what it takes to win will be his.</p><p> </p><p>

Number 2</p><p>

<img alt="ubAywdw.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/ubAywdw.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p><p>

Having been released from SWF towards the end of the year Jungle Lord is attempting to find a new lease of life in his wrestling career in Puerto Rico as part of the FCW roster. The former SWF Tag Team and North American champion may well be the most well known man to ever enter the Invitational and if he signs a full-time contract with the promotion he could carry MAW into a new era of prominence in the wrestling industry. </p><p> </p><p>

Number 3</p><p>

<img alt="XRjJLn0.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/XRjJLn0.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p><p>

Joining Jungle Lord is another 45-year-old in the form of “The Untouchable” Nicolas Lopez. The only man to ever hold the COTT World Heavyweight Championship on more than one occasion will be looking to add a second MAW championship to his trophy cabinet after he and occasional part, occasional rival Marcos Flores won the Sam Keith Classic in 2013. 2020 was a tough year on the ageing body of Lopez, and after losing the Campeonato de Universal OLLIE in September, perhaps this will be a last hurrah for the lucha libra legend.</p><p> </p><p>

Number 4</p><p>

<img alt="igseVaG.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/igseVaG.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p><p>

“The Hell’s Kitchen Hoss” Devastating Don will be looking to chew through the competition in what could be a breakout tournament for the big man. Weighing in at 460lbs, the big man with a bigger appetite may be looking to raise his stock in the COTT after being seen by many as nothing more than a low-level giant in today’s hyper-athletic world of wrestling. A good run here could set him up for future success across the United States as a special attraction.</p><p> </p><p>

Number 5</p><p>

<img alt="rcWK6Uh.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/rcWK6Uh.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p><p>

PsychoMike will be entering his first RCI having been signed to IPW in 2019 and will be looking to make a bigger splash than his middle-rope Bull Frog Splash. Many are casting doubt on the chances of the young due to his lack of experience, but if he can find success anywhere near the level of fellow Oakland native, Paris Burnett, then the big man could find himself becoming a COTT champion before long.</p><p> </p><p>

Number 6</p><p>

<img alt="Rs0sCdq.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/Rs0sCdq.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p><p>

Having left his father’s promotion in order to strike out on his own, Phoenix IV will be joining the tournament this year as a representative of CILL. The charismatic luchador has all the tools to be a major player in EILL and will look to prove that with a strong tournament showing. Having held the Campeonato de Mexico OLLIE three times, including a three-month reign in 2020, the young man knows what it takes to have success as a singles wrestler and could be a dark horse for success in the tournament.</p><p> </p><p>

Number 7</p><p>

<img alt="fiRDrc8.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/fiRDrc8.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p><p>

“The Ace of The Coastal Zone” Frankie Perez is the final man entering the tournament from the Confederation and many will see him as a big favourite, regardless of who is announced as an entrant from MAW. The former WLW Modern Japan champion and winner of the 2019 Sam Keith Classic has pedigree above many others in the tournament, and at 36-years-old is finally hitting his peak as a wrestler. Having lost the Coastal Zone Championship in August, after a 14-month reign, this could be the next big step in a great career for the California Native.</p><p> </p><p>

Number 8</p><p>

<img alt="hsHwEGd.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/hsHwEGd.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p><p>

Entering as a part of the new Wildcard slot established during last year’s Sam Keith Classic is the massive Dreadnought. The youngest son of Dread has all of the size, menace and charisma of his father, while also athleticism of a man 100lbs small. Having worked on the independent scene for a year, he has found what many believed would be his first home before moving on to Japan. Will he decimate the competition on the way to a shock win? Stranger things have happened.</p><p>

<p></p><div style="text-align:center;"><p><strong><span style="font-size:18px;"><span style="color:#FF0000;">MAW Entrants</span></span></strong></p><p> </p><p>

Number 1</p><p>

<img alt="eyU1RfU.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/eyU1RfU.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p><p>

The first entrant announced coming from Mid Atlantic Wrestling is former Mid Atlantic Champion Bradley Blaze. Blaze has held every title there is to hold in MAW, and having lost to Alphaville leader, Seth Whitehead, Blaze has been determined to get back to winning ways. As the only man in the tournament to have won a Rip Chord Invitational in the past, Blaze has to be the odds on favourite to bag his second trophy.</p><p> </p><p>

Number 2</p><p>

<img alt="SJXC8qP.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/SJXC8qP.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p><p>

The name Bradley Blaze cannot come without Cheetah Boy as the two have been embroiled in a rivalry that seems to have cooled recently but could spark up again at any time. The former SWF and USPW man has never won the Invitational but has pedigree as a former Mid Atlantic Champion. At 38-years-old time is against the veteran, but he seems willing to do anything to win at this stage of his career so cannot be counted out.</p><p> </p><p>

Number 3</p><p>

<img alt="EhDllvy.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/EhDllvy.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p><p>

Duke Freeman makes up the first TCW developmental talent to enter the RCI this year. The Alphaville member had a middling year in 2020 before joining the group but remains undefeated since coming under the leadership of Seth Whitehead. While many may see him as the least promising member of the group, his versatility and tenacity may well see him going far in the tournament, even if he doesn’t necessarily win the whole thing.</p><p> </p><p>

Number 4</p><p>

<img alt="RaR7Te4.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/RaR7Te4.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p><p>

His Alphaville teammate Guillotine will be joining the competition this year, coming in off the back of an undefeated year in 2020 and as the man who many see as responsible for Bradley Blaze losing to Seth Whitehead at Night of The Champions last year. The muscular Mexican will be looking to push on from a strong 2020 to potentially come away with the biggest win of his career.</p><p> </p><p>

Number 5</p><p>

<img alt="un5wyqT.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/un5wyqT.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p><p>

Fewer stars in MAW had a bigger rookie year than “The Nine-Tailed Fox”. The massive man remains unpinned and unsubmitted going into 2021 and with scalps like Paris Burnett, Quentin Queen and Josh Jacobs on his resumé he may well storm through the competition. It is unclear what his motivations are in MAW but given him seemingly laying down the gauntlet to challenge Sandman Winks for the newly renamed John Hopkins University Championship, expect to see Ho Tinh in the main event scene sooner rather than later.</p><p> </p><p>

Number 6</p><p>

<img alt="nY8vgU8.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/nY8vgU8.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p><p>

The final TCW contracted wrestler in the bracket is Jaylon Martins the former JHU champion had a rough year last year but managed to convince Sam Keith to give him one more chance by inserting him into this year’s RCI. Martins has a lot to prove and not a lot of time to prove it, as while he has a wealth of untapped potential, a series of less than stellar performances have seen him fall down the rankings in MAW.</p><p> </p><p>

Number 7</p><p>

<img alt="S6XMtek.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/S6XMtek.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p><p>

Josh Jacobs has seen something of a career resurgence following a late-2020 change in character from the dull Friday Night Delight shtick to the universally well-received “Protector of Baltimore”. Jacobs’ delusion seems to know no bounds as he has been posting pictures on his social media of his face photoshopped onto the bodies of previous RCI winners holding the trophy. Following the departures of The Architect and Frankie-Boy Fernandes the time could be right for JJ to ascend to the top of the mountain.</p><p> </p><p>

Number 8</p><p>

<img alt="A2rKr7a.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/A2rKr7a.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p><p>

Last but not least on this list is Miller Fforde, the last man trained by Rip Chord before he rode off into the sunset of retirement and sasparillas. Fforde had a quietly very strong 2020, going unbeaten except for a loss in a multi-man match in December, in which he was not pinned or submitted. Could this mean a big title match is in his near future regardless of how he does in this year’s tournament? There’s only one way to find out.</p><p>

Fri, Wk 4, Jan 2021</p><p> </p><p>

Opening Match</p><p>

Rip Chord Invitational Qualifying Match 1</p><p>

Singles Match</p><p>

15-Minute Time Limit</p><p> </p><p>

Hudson Drake (ACPW) vs<strong> Jungle Lord (FCW)</strong></p><p>

Jungle Lord is a big name with his former big run -- Drake is a good talent but Lord should make it to the next round.</p><p> </p><p> </p><p>

Rip Chord Invitational Qualifying Match 2</p><p>

Singles Match</p><p>

15-Minute Time Limit</p><p> </p><p>

Miller Fforde (MAW) vs <strong>Nicolas Lopez (OLLIE)</strong></p><p>

I could see this going either way, but Lopez is a former two time COTT World Champion and Fforde could have a really good showing and come up short -- which would give a big name lucha-style match for the second round.</p><p> </p><p>

Rip Chord Invitational Qualifying Match 3</p><p>

Singles Match</p><p>

15-Minute Time Limit</p><p> </p><p>

Jaylon Martins (TCW) vs <strong>Josh Jacobs (MAW)</strong></p><p>

Singles Match</p><p>

15-Minute Time Limit</p><p> </p><p>

<strong>Bradley Blaze (MAW</strong>) vs Devastating Don (NYCW)</p><p>

I don't like Don and this is a good way for the former champion to rebound.</p><p> </p><p>

Rip Chord Invitational Qualifying Match 5</p><p>

15-Minute Time Limit</p><p> </p><p>

<strong>Cheetah Boy (MAW)</strong> vs PsychoMike (IPW)</p><p> </p><p>

Rip Chord Invitational Qualifying Match 6</p><p>

Singles Match</p><p>

15-Minute Time Limit</p><p> </p><p>

<strong>Dreadnought (Indie)</strong> vs Ho Tinh (TCW)</p><p>

I picked Dreadnought to be in this -- so I hope he gets a big win over young stud Ho Tinh. This is purely a desire win -- I could very well see him lose this since he's an indy-guy and you use this as a way to see if he impresses enough to offer a full time gig.</p><p> </p><p>
