SWF Supreme TV Results [Tues. Wk. 4, Jan 2020]

 

qeYGKnn.jpg

From the diary of Samantha W. Fitzworthy

 

The final episode of Supreme TV for January aired from the (almost) sold out Minnesota Coliseum, with 7.945 paying attendants. According to the early figures, 2.406.406 viewers gave it a 3.20 rating, another drop from last week as the broadcast deal appears to be more at risk with each passing episode.

 

2tpRL3H.jpgqD6llvF.jpg

Immediately after the opening titles, a video package aired to recap Remo’s win at When Hell Freezes Over, Rocky Golden’s successful title defence at the same event and to hype up the fact that later tonight, we would be seeing them sign a contract for a title match at the upcoming Nothing To Lose pay per view. A sure fire way to kick things off strong with some of the biggest stars available, this one got a rating of 78.

 

NpVvUsB.jpg

So last week “Big Money” Brandon James worked his first match after turning babyface and he showed signs of being a bit “out there”. I’m not sure head trauma is still an acceptable joke in 2020 but James can sell it without overselling it. Guess stints with DAVE and Warrior Engine have familiarized him all too well with the real thing. Anyway, no amount of head trauma, imagined or not, can make this man forget how to cut a promo and he talked about the events at When Hell Freezes Over and losing Krissy Angelle. Apparently this is planting the seeds for a match with Hollywood Bret Starr and it should be interesting, maybe good enough to stretch it into an entire feud. For now, the promo got a 63.

 

NpVvUsB.jpg25UZG0h.pnggvy0H2L.jpg

Following his promo, James had a match with Dominic DeSousa. Normally, it’d be an easy win for Big Money, but the whole head trauma angle levelled the playing field and DeSousa wasn’t shy about working the head and neck with strikes and submissions or even the occasional DDT. All of those he remembered to play up and taunt the fans or diss his opponent to generate heat, which is solid heel work on his part. James still won in the end with a Brandon Bomb Drop, but DeSousa had a chance to rub shoulders with the big dog (or should I say, Big Cat?) and prove he can hang as he’s clearly considered an investment for the future. A 57 for this.

Mainstream Hernandez then cut what Mr. Eisen called a “filler” promo. I wouldn’t think the blame lies on the man though, he can talk just as good as he can wrestle and he even seemed to come up with a catchphrase that got such a great reaction from the fans, I can already imagine it chanted. What’s missing is a storyline, something to have us viewers invested and his promos heading somewhere. Sadly, it seems most of SWF’s few babyfaces are tangled up elsewhere. Oh well, still a 68 isn’t bad at all.

 

7MBpyeV.jpg25UZG0h.pngjXe0Sou.jpg

Robbie Retro’s “local talent” surprise opponent turned out to be none other than Paul Steadyfast. Let me check, a member of the original TCW roster (or HGC, as it was called back in the late 90s), TCW Tag Team champion with Robert Oxford… yeah I think this was kind of a rerun from last week’s Uprising where they brought in the Nation of Filth just to take shots at the opposition and having this man lose to “The Disco Stud” of all people was flat out humiliation. Still, Retro rarely gets a win being the comedy character he is, so I guess he needed it and the fans weren’t exactly turned off by the action, so Mr. Eisen graded this as a 53.

 

7MBpyeV.jpg

Oh and in case the point hadn’t been hammered home, Robbie Retro was even handed a couple of minutes to perform his little disco victory dance over his fallen opponent. I saw more pettiness in it, but some fans never minded Steadyfast and only saw a fun segment with a fun character, so 59 for the dance.

 

4a1C8BJ.jpggvy0H2L.jpg

Backstage, Joe Sexy in his iconic pink playboy robe walked up to Dominic DeSousa for the next segment. Sexy praised the Hollywood native for his skill and talent on display earlier against Brandon James, but said there’s still something missing, which is why he also lost that match. According to “the sexiest man alive”, he saw a lot of him in young DeSousa and wanted to help that potential blossom, so he offered to take him under his wing. We didn’t get to see the response, I presume to keep viewers guessing and bring them back in next week to find out, but seeing them on screen, it makes sense for them to be presented together. Mr. Eisen also agreed and said this might help DeSousa reach that next level, giving the angle a 56.

 

bcjiqVi.jpg

John Greed is more or less suffering the same fate as Mainstream Hernandez, good both in ring and on the mic but not involved with anyone specific, thus not doing or saying anything that feels like it matters much. Again, his wasn’t a bad promo but I couldn’t help thinking when he mumbled the same things about being “blinded by greed” to Lenny Brown earlier this month: at least back then he had someone to address and even if it was another man’s storyline, his words made sense in that context. Right now it was pretty much engaging ramblings, garnering a grade of 67.

 

SPyzWUc.jpgFHUEpiU.jpg25UZG0h.pngzmwhmaD.jpg3zQuiWv.jpg

American Machine and Masked Patriot make sense as a team, more than Patriot made next to Matty Faith anyway. Watching this match I thought how they’re the idealized America, while the Pain Alliance probably represent how most people outside the States see Americans. That’s just me being poetic, the match itself was nothing to write home about and frankly, it couldn’t be when you consider who was in it. Age is catching up with the Machine and it didn’t help that Laramee looked unfocused, Patriot was by far the best man in the ring and I guess he needs this kind of exposure so he can move on past such bouts. The match ended with everything falling apart and all four men fighting on the outside for a double count out, so perhaps it will be revisited down the road and hey, how long’s it been since you saw an indecisive sports entertainment finish on an SWF show? Mr. Eisen rated this as a 48.

 

cmXGyfa.jpgEylo95j.jpg

Fame & Money cut a promo next (well, Huntigdon mostly did) in light of their match next and said what was on everyone’s minds, that they beat Southern Comfort last week and had nothing to prove by fighting them again. I enjoyed how Paul saved this though when he praised their opponents and said it’s a money-making match and they’re never against making more money. A well deserved 67.

 

SVidnhr.jpgnq2GDOi.jpg

Backstage, Lenny Brown had an interaction with Spencer Spade, confronting him about the SWF North American title situation and saying he should have his rematch first. The Supreme Star wasn’t having any of it though and pointed out that Brown already had a chance and blew it, then announced that in tonight’s main event, he would be facing Hollywood Bret Starr and The Crippler to prove just why he’s the one best suited for a title shot. Wasn’t excited about how he ran down Lenny, but Mr. Eisen liked the segment and gave it a 68.

 

cmXGyfa.jpgEylo95j.jpg25UZG0h.pngZqKAoE0.jpgWfm7oyM.jpg

Match time next as Southern Comfort tried to score the equalizer against Fame & Money. Don’t think Dillon and Kobb just magically clicked within the space of a single week, it was probably the presentation and story of the match about them functioning better. That said, they also got the victory, with Dillon hitting the Crackdown on Trescarde for the pin. Better than last week’s match despite the repeat factor, this one was a 59 and it’ll be interesting to see the rubber match.

 

qm4JcZ6.jpgcpAGu2w.jpg

Jump backstage again while the ring was being prepared for the big contract signing, Joey Morgan and “Angry” Tom Gilmore got some mic time to hype themselves up and establish the fact they will be teaming regularly in the near future. Great stuff as always and they also made sure to get their new name “Best of the Best” over, with Mr. Eisen awarding them a 73 for their promo.

 

2tpRL3H.jpgqD6llvF.jpgbD6Gn3a.jpgSMQR5eP.jpg

Contract signing time, complete with drawn-out entrances for both Remo and Rocky Golden. Eric and Jerry Eisen were also there to make this feel bigger and more official, with “The Supremacist” officiating things on the mic. Both competitors also shared a staredown and exchanged a few words, but before ink could be laid on paper, the lights went out...

RSL6GBd.jpg

and when they came back on, Scythe was in the ring to flip the table and attack Rocky. Chaos ensued, a ton of bodies ran into the ring (most of them came out flying too) and the signing was crashed for good as we headed to the last commercial break before the main event match. Not sure where they’re going with this, but fans responded anyway and Mr. Eisen told me to mark down a 79.

 

TvNbpxX.jpgW31esv4.jpg

25UZG0h.png

nq2GDOi.jpg2gUyrYj.jpg

25UZG0h.png

inYGk7m.jpg

Triple Threat time, with all three men involved going flat out bell to bell in a fantastic contest that was held back by having only 15 or so minutes, likely holding back the good stuff for Pay Per Views. Spade was trying to prove his worth and get a title shot, as mentioned, The Crippler was just out to hurt people and I’m guessing Starr is slowly being groomed for the main event, so everyone had a reason to be in the match and try to win it.

NpVvUsB.jpg

Other than match length, it was probably let down a bit by the finish where Brandon James interfered to attack Starr, setting him up for an opportunistic Supreme Stunner and a quick cover from Spade while Dulce Moreno kept The Crippler busy on the other side of the ring. Not as great as a clean win, but I guess it was done to keep the heat between James and Starr going; clearly thing’s aren’t over following the attack at When Hell Freezes Over and we may be seeing them go one on one at the next PPV. For now, the main event landed a 73 from Mr. Eisen.

 

 

Overall, the show would be rated as a 72 and it finally feels like there are enough storylines to follow on each episode. Some issues remain, from the anti-TCW pettiness to having stars like Hernandez and Greed without much to do, but in general there’s a feeling of quiet restructuring following the appointment of Matty Faith as head of booking. The man is clearly trying to make things right and build up new stars, so any shortcomings are to be expected pains of labor.

The 'go-home' episode of American Wrestling is upon us as we are now days away from the first special event of the year - Stars, Stripes and Slams! Wednesday night is sure to be a great night of action so let's run down what's in store.

 

Zeus
will team up with his Olympus Order cohorts
Bad Intentions
in 6-man tag action against
Roger Cage
and
American Gold
as a precursor to their National Title match on Saturday night.

 

We also have more multi-person tag action to follow that will continue to hype up two announced matches for Stars, Stripes and Slams!
Melody, Pariah, Sara-Marie and Miss American Pie
will join forces against
Alicia Strong, The Muscle Monsters and Jillian Jarvis

 

Eddie Howard
of Natural Storm will face off against
Rajah
of The Business in singles action as the entanglement of these units continues after the 6-man tag at the start of the year.
Joss Thompson
, whom we haven't seen in a few weeks since his post-match interruption via a 'cryptic' video, will face of vs
Andre Jones
in what we expect to be an excellent encounter.

 

Bulldozer Brandon Smith
and
Kirk Jameson
will face off in singles action. Things spilled over into a brawl last week as Trent Schaffer and Casey Valentine faced off and it looks like we're heading towards a 6-person tag at Saturday's event but we're still awaiting an 'official' announcement of that.

 

The main event sees
Rick Law & Running Wolf
vs
Steve Frehley & Rich Money
in what is a star-studded affair and an avenue to hype both of their respective singles matches at Stars, Striples and Slams!

 

Another exciting night of action ahead and the final stop before our first Special Event of the year. You won't want to miss it.

Hello and welcome to this special edition of the Behind The Curtain Podcast with me, Jo-Ro. The 'go-home' show before Stars, Stripes and Slams! is in the books for USPW so let's dive into the evenings events and see what went down on American Wrestling!

 

HLSJnbk.jpg

 

We were back in the South East for this episode that latest figures suggest was watched about 11.4 million viewers on Reverie, that's an increase of almost 1 million viewers on last weeks episode. Attendance was also at 12,542

 

Segment 1:

The show opens up with an elaborate hype package for Stars, Stripes and Slams! and a few short promos from some of the stars who'll be featured on the show. We then had Brock Cornish and company hyping up the 'Special Event' and this evenings matches to come. It was a solid segment that put over everything neatly and clarified some of the matches for the upcoming 'Special Event'. It also makes sense from a business standpoint to start calling their monthly shows that as opposed to Pay-Per-Views since... well, they don't do Pay-Per-Views anymore. A strong opening!

(85)

 

Segment 2:

The Olympus Order vs Roger Cage and American Gold

After a strong opening to the show it was followed up by this underwhelming match that didn't do a whole lot to hype the National Title match for Saturdays event. The match clocked in at a shade under 11 minutes which is longer than it should've gone, especially given the inexperience of the tag teams involved, but it's good that the company and Strong aren't afraid of giving them TV time. Cage picked up the win for his trio putting away Valhalla with his Cage Rage.

(51)

 

Segment 3:

The announce team then throw us to a sit-down interview with The Texas Express being interviewed by Danny Jillefski. They put over their upcoming opponents The Cold Warriors but put themselves over also and set their sights on the tag titles after they win on Saturday. Not known for their promo ability the youngsters did well here in a short segment. It probably helps a lot that DJ was interviewing and it was a pre-tape.

(57)

 

Segment 4:

We happen upon Rich Money backstage minus his entourage as he appears to be readying himself for the main event. Jack Jackson approaches and appears to reaffirm his message from last week that he's available should Money deem fit a reshape of The Business. Another possible tease here for future shenanigans. Jackson is solid in promo form and a potential coupling with Money could be very interesting going forward. Not to mention there's already a Rich Money protége in the form of Sterling Whitlock. A fun little segment.

(72)

 

Segment 5:

Melody, Sara Marie, Pariah & Miss American Pie vs Alicia Strong, The Muscle Monsters & Jillian Jarvis

A fun but unspectacular affair that allowed everyone to get a brief little showcase for themselves. The focus of the match were the rivalries between Alicia Strong and Sara Marie and then Pariah and Jillian Jarvis as we build to the matches involving them come Saturday. We got a nice little tease as the fans 'popped' for Strong & Pariah facing off as, arguably, the two are the most popular women on the roster. Miss American Pie appeared to just be making up the numbers given her affiliation with anyone involved but that was fine. The surprising finish came when things boiled over to a brawl between them all but with Pariah and Strong as the legal women Pariah vaulted herself from the top rope planting Strong with a surprise Tornado DDT and picking up the 3 count to surprise everyone.

(58)

 

Segment 6:

Eddie Howard vs Rajah

The third match of the evening was better than it really probably should've been given it's 8-minute run time but that could be because Eddie Howard is starting to really shine these days. Rajah is the fodder of The Business and this match now means that Howard has mixed it up with all members of the faction, except for Whitlock but including Money, in some form and come out on top each time. There were no shenanigans here. Howard picked up the clean win via his Crash and Burn finisher.

(63)

 

Segment 7:

A nice little promo package hyping up the triple threat for the women's title on Saturday featuring Jaime Quine defending against Alicia Strong and Sara Marie. The match features 3 of the best wrestlers in the world and could very well steal the show at Stars, Stripes and Slams!

(76)

 

Segment 8:

Joss Thompson vs Andre Jones

Certainly the MOTN from an in-ring standpoint these two men put on a good wrestling match for 12-minutes. A lot of back and forth action before Thompson really started to gain an advantage. All hope looked to be lost for Jones before the match was briefly interrupted by a short video package featuring the green mask we saw a few weeks before, that also interrupted a Joss Thompson match, and hype an in-ring return. The holder of the mask was never named but everyone and their grandmother knows it's going to be Enygma. The package came to an end and Jones recovered to roll-up 'The Complete Package' for the 3 count and the unlikely victory.

(76)

 

Segment 9:

Quickly following the match Joss picks up a house mic and we can see that he is pissed. He shoots off a quick promo citing that he knows it's Enygma, he's fed up of the silly games and that he's calling out the veteran for a match at Stars, Stripes and Slams! so he can finish this and move on. A very good, fiery promo from Thompson who can talk with the best of them when he gets going. Thompson is the MVP of the evening.

(81)

 

Segment 10:

Bulldozer Brandon Smith vs 'The Marksman' Kirk Jameson

Next we had a continuation of the fallout from last weeks events of Trent Schaffer and Casey Valentine and the beatdown that occurred there. This was a good match between two guys with contrasting styles and it entertained. Schaffer and Robinson joined Jameson ringside to support and, in seeing this, Smith was joined by Charity and Casey. Now of course this was eventually going to descend into chaos but it took 8 minutes of action and a certain Smith victory before the heels hit the ring and attacked followed by the babyfaces attempting to make the save. A messy finish that went down as a Smith victory via DQ.

(63)

 

Segment 11:

The post-match fight was eventful and chaotic. The 6 stars gave us an entertaining but brief brawl that came to a close with the heels all gathered on the outside and Charity Sweet hitting the ropes, vaulting over the hunched Smith and taking out the heels with a spectacular Tope Con Hilo. Smith then grabbed a mic and called out the 'bad guy' trio for a 3 v 3 match at Stars, Stripes and Slams! A fun segment that keeps the crowd 'hot' for the main event.

(73)

 

Segment 12:

We then jumped backstage to Rich Money, adorned in his wrestling gear, finishing his warm-up and then turning to address the rest of The Business. He specifically chooses to address Ducont and Thatcher and informs them that they will face off against Natural Storm at Stars, Stripes and Slams! and if they don't win then they're done! He also informs them that he expects everyone to be there tonight if things fall apart. The group agree and file out of the room leaving Rich behind. Just when we think it's over from behind another door in the room appears Zeus who just nods approvingly towards Rich. A weird end to the segment that seems to suggest that Zeus, like his namesake, may be some sort of omnipotent deity who just appears and has great authority. Strange end but seeds continue to be planted for a reshuffle of The Business.

(64)

 

Segment 13:

Rick Law & Running Wolf vs Steve Frehley & Rich Money

A star-studded TV main event featuring 4 of the 5 top guys in the company resulted in a good match that could've been better but it was marred by, what reports are suggesting now, a legitimate injury to Rick Law. At about the halfway point of the bout, Law was in the midst of a comeback spot and went for a splash in the corner which Money dodged but Law appeared to propel himself too far as he landed face first on the ring post and was floored briefly. Reports are coming through now, days before his 2-out-of-3 falls match with Frehley that he now has a broken jaw. The match rolled on though and it met it's DQ end in favour of the babyfaces after members of The Business got involved.

(73)

 

Segment 14:

The post-match becomes an absolute mess as a mass of bodies hit the ring including Big Bubba, Sterling Whitlock, Ducont & Thatcher and Rajah. They all begin joining their respective bad guy leader in beating down the babyfaces making sure they're in no shape to fight at Stars, Stripes and Slams! when we hear the familiar pounding drum beat and battle cry that signals the return of the Icon, Nicky Champion. The crowd unleash a roar as 'Hawkeye' sprints to the ring and begins clobbering the bad guys with rights, lefts and swinging lariats as he clears the ring. Everyone begins backing off in different directions as they stare back at the ring at a 'pumped up' Champion who helps Law and Wolf to their feet as the trio stand tall to end the show.

(84)

 

 

A considerable improvement on the previous shows this month. The events of the evening flowed smoothly, we now have a much clearer picture of what the matches are going to be at saturdays 'Special Event' of Stars, Stripes and Slams! and we saw the return of Champion to the company after a few months of absence. It's clear that Strong is starting to find her footing with the roster at her disposal but the real test will start to come after Saturday and the stories begin flowing from her own mind and that of the creative team around her. The injury to Law is unfortunate but it'll be interesting to see if that has any effect on the upcoming match with Frehley. All in all it was a good show. The best of the month and it sets up Stars, Stripes and Slams! nicely. A 76 is a good rating for this episode.

 

Til next time friends, I'm Jo-Ro.

SWF Uprising Results [Fri. Wk. 4, Jan 2020]

 

Gf1mgKs.jpg

From the diary of Samantha W. Fitzworthy

 

From the Nation’s southeast all the way up to the northwest and from last week’s Uprising in Texas to this week’s live from The Theatre of Dreams in Oregon. Though the venue was not sold out again, 8.388 fans were in attendance and according to NetStream numbers, 3.979.932 viewers saw the show live, some twenty thousand less than last week, a sign that Uprising also isn’t doing that well in viewership despite not having the head to head competition that Supreme TV does on Tuesdays. Something for Mr. Eisen’s sons to think about.

 

WBnSRhJ.jpgN8a1je6.jpgZJznckl.jpg1KmmoFR.jpg

The opening video was followed by a quick recap of last week’s main event, then Mikey Lau made his entrance to a great reaction. Lau cut a promo to acknowledge his defeat, saying he respects Atom Smasher as a fighter but not as a person; despite their in-ring confrontation, Lau said he still has no idea why Smasher attacked him in the first place and why he was so hellbent on attacking his damaged leg as if looking to put him on the shelf and take his livelihood away. This of course brought out “The Radioactive Warrior” himself, but instead of explaining his actions, thoughts or motivation, Smasher just suckerpunched Lau and picked up exactly from where he’d left off last week, viciously attacking his leg. Valiant played cavalry for the angle and ran out for the save, which then brought out Rogue with a mic in hand. The mastermind addressed Atom Smasher first, saying the two men now seem to share a common enemy in Valiant, thus he suggested teaming up against him and Lau in tonight’s main event. Not great, but not bad either, a standard-ish way to open a show and set up the main event. At least no authority figures were involved and the brand’s big stars were used, so Mr. Eisen gave the intro an 82.

 

LsNPSwr.jpgC0RtPiJ.jpg

Back at the interview zone, Ana Garcia was out to find why Mutant decided to pick on Justin Sensitive, of all people, creeping up to him and scaring him during his promo time last week. Mutant went on to cut a promo about how he’s the King of the Wasteland and the wasteland is no place for weaklings like Sensitive and how he as its king cannot suffer weakness… Pretty gimmicky stuff, but he has the charisma to make it work somehow and fans ate it up despite him being relatively new. Perhaps they just don’t like Justin and wanted to see someone destroy him. Whatever the case, a 53 was what this segment got.

 

C0RtPiJ.jpg25UZG0h.pngZG3gG6w.jpg

So on to the match, which I have to say was pretty terrible. Might have worked better if it was an outright squash, but I’d wager Justin wasn’t going to go along with the idea even if it was brought up. The solution the booking team came up with was to have Mutant go overboard and get disqualified, likely establishing himself as a madman while somewhat protecting Sensitive. A meager 37, nothing to write home about.

 

J3gziSv.jpgBUCgAQW.jpg

Up next Duane Fry was interviewing ZWB who had some biting remarks on Xavi Ferrera. Remember, besides calling himself “The Star of San Juan” last week, Ferrera also interfered in ZWB’s match against SUKI last week (which I still don’t understand why it didn’t lead to SUKI winning, but I digress) so ZWB talked him down and warned him to stay away from him. Guess there’s a feud building between the two, can’t complain as they’re both good on the mic and in the ring, despite Xavi still being a relative unknown. For now, the promo was awarded a 60.

 

1oogrm3.jpg12RJue4.jpgwifnrLi.jpg

More backstage interviews, this time with Emma Chase interviewing Cali Slick and Fro Sure. Emma asked the two men if we could expect a different outcome than the last two times that Slick lost to Prudence (ouch!) and the two men took turns on the mic to put themselves over, with Slick hyping up Fro in light of his match up next. Again, it’s clear Matty Faith is trying to establish the new guys and Emma really sold this one for a grade of 58.

 

wifnrLi.jpg25UZG0h.png1DWauMw.jpg

Guess what, the outcome was indeed the same again as Prudence beat Fro Sure. The Los Angeles native did have a legitimate excuse though, as apparently he suffered a legitimate injury to his hand during the match. To his credit, he pushed on and completed the bout, but I’m guessing he’ll come back saying he wasn’t at 100% and request revenge. Mr. Eisen gave their match a 49.

 

yN4oPuK.jpg

More new guys hype followed, with a video package regarding SUKI. The man doesn’t speak English yet to be able to cut a promo, so they mostly settled for a quick training montage and whatever footage they could acquire of his matches in Japan. I took the opportunity for a quick bathroom break and when I got back, Mr. Eisen told me to mark down a 24.

 

1xdP8o4.jpgWDpvDHD.jpgZMWSLM5.jpgUma1ExS.jpgp0O5Ibq.jpg

On to more familiar faces, the Awesomeness (minus RBB) hit the ring to repeat their request of a tag title match. Hawaiian Crush showed up to respond and they put over The Mission for doing well and winning their match last week, so in order to prove who’s really deserving of a title opportunity, the two Hawaiians suggested a #1 contenders match between their two potential challengers later tonight. The Awesomeness picked up the glove and accepted, wrapping up this angle with a 70.

 

58PKe45.jpg25UZG0h.pngAOkt5La.jpg

Charger Siaki had a match against Jungle Lord next, in light of the former attacking the latter last week (and getting his ass whooped, another creative decision I just don’t get). At least they leaned into the “wild man” aspect of both competitors and had them work a crazy wild brawl from bell to bell, which ended via referee stoppage after Charger Siaki was deemed unable to continue. Again, a pretty understandable way to keep this rivalry going via an indecisive finish while also protecting the man on the losing end. Mr. Eisen awarded a 55 to their bout.

 

AOkt5La.jpgUEdrBy2.jpg

RBB came out after the match, mocking Jungle Lord for being an old man who couldn’t finish the job. Of course, Jungle Lord being still high on adrenaline wanted to prove the man wrong and do so in a physical manner, which led to a chase backstage. More entertaining than the match itself, this segment got a 66 although I must say I was left a little confused as to where the storyline is going and which of the two Jungle Lord is supposed to feud next. I just hope they don’t go for another triangle feud again.

 

A9QIsHm.jpgwO1UocA.jpg

1xdP8o4.jpgWDpvDHD.jpgZMWSLM5.jpg

So The Mission versus The Awesomeness as promised and a pretty good match that went a little over fifteen minutes, allowing both teams to do their thing and tell a story. Huey and Jefferson pulled off their usual high flying stuff, but made sure to be ultra cocky about it, thus avoiding a pop as best as they could in order to get a bit of heat. Faith and Ranger were more brawl-oriented which is usually the heel way in these matches, unless maybe you’re into cowboys and that southern wrasslin’ style TCW’s trying to bring back. What’s important here is that The Mission came across as a real threat and legitimate title contenders, which in turn led to a desperation move and interference from BJ O’Neil to secure an advantage that would allow Huey Cannonball to hit the Shock and Awe on Faith for the pin while Jefferson Stardust made sure Ranger was too caught up to break the cover. Not bad, not great either, Mr. Eisen gave the match a 56.

 

kFrQtdk.jpgpM9mouj.jpg

Des Davids and Steven Parker were backstage, the champion acknowledging the fact that Parker beat him fair and square last week. However, in a rare moment of cross-brand storytelling, Davids brought up Spencer Spade and what “The Supreme Star” has been saying on Tuesdays about aiming for the SWF North American title. Oh God, it’s going to be a triple threat match at Nothing to Lose, isn’t it? I’m amazed this one got a 68.

 

N8a1je6.jpg1KmmoFR.jpg

25UZG0h.png

WBnSRhJ.jpgZJznckl.jpgsjzLjoT.jpg

Main event time and as promised, Atom Smasher and Rogue teamed up against Mikey Lau and Valiant. Again, I’m surprised they were given twenty plus minutes for the main event, given the ADD of SWF fans, but the wrestling was great and these four had the fans in the palm of their hand from bell to bell, so I guess it worked out for the best. Valiant brought some much-needed physical power to complement Lau’s striking while Rogue added cunning and some smart heel tactics to the powerhouse style of Smasher, making for a match that had a little bit of everything for everyone. On top of that, the heels seemed to be natural partners for each other and that elevated their performance. Regardless, it seems the faces were the ones more in need of a win an such was the finish, with Valiant being the one to roll up Smasher for an unexpected three count. Mr. Eisen loved the match and gave it a 72.

 

 

All in all, I think SWF’s biggest problem which has been a lack of interesting storylines to follow has been addressed and all of them had a logical progression this show, setting up matches for the next episode and the upcoming PPV. There’s still the issue of featuring several unknown guys and fans not yet having warmed up to them, but I guess the brand split and having most of them on Uprising was kind of the idea, with more established names saved for Supreme TV and the ratings war. I think Mr. Eisen rating the show as a 71, two grades lower than last week, doesn’t do it justice, but what do I know, I’m just his secretary.

USPW Stars, Stripes & Slams! Preview

 

LIVE! from the Alderbrook Grounds in the North West comes USPW Stars, Stripes & Slams! The first special event of the new decade from the biggest company in North America.

 

Streaming live also on Reverie will be a night of action that you will not want to miss out on with all four titles on the line as well as a couple of grudge matches scheduled too. Let's have a quick run down and preview of the show.

 

Jett & Moor © vs Shockwave

The USPW tag team titles are on the line in this one. Neither team has been showcased much on USPW TV over the past month (such is the quality and array of talent within the company) but Jumbo & Atlas are out for revenge in this one. They dropped the tag titles to Jett & Moor a few months ago and have been looking to reclaim them ever since with this potentially seeming like their last chance to do so. They come into this strong but Jumbo appears to be clutching his knee a lot so it'll be interesting to see how this plays out.

 

Roger Cage © vs Zeus

This one is for the USPW National Title which Cage has held for 3 months now. The past few weeks have been a case of beatdowns and smacktalk between these two with each looking to their respective back-ups for support. Zeus has Bad Intentions by his side (and on his mind) while Cage roped in the young duo of American Gold to provide support. This should be an entertaining one.

 

Jillian Jarvis vs Pariah

'The Lone Wolf' is riding a huge wave of momentum over these last few months and is one of the hottest commodities in the company. 'The Iron Lady' has taken it upon herself to knock Pariah down a few pegs and make sure she knows her place in the hierarchy of the women's division. This either turns Pariah white hot or puts Jarvis firmly in the title picture.

 

Bulldozer Brandon Smith, Casey Valentine & Charity Sweet vs Trent Shaffer, Kirk Jameson & Raven Robinson

What initially started off as a rivalry between Smith & Shaffer in a 'who's the better man' deal has escalated into something much bigger with other stars getting involved and resulting in this mixed tag team match. Singles matches have taken place over the last few weeks with wins for either team but we've yet to see Sweet & Robinson get physical with each other. As far as we're led to believe this is a fully integrated tag team match, not just men vs men and women vs women so expect shenanigans to ensue.

 

The Texas Express vs The Cold Warriors

This one is a tale as old as time. The young and upcoming hot shot duo vs the veteran team in a classic good vs evil tale. This will either prove that The Texas Express are ready to take the next step in their careers or that they're not quite at the level required to move forward in the tag ranks. They have momentum on their side but The Cold Warriors are three-time champions and won't roll over easily.

 

Rick Law vs Steve Frehley

This match has the special stipulation of it being two-out-of-three falls. In the absence of Nicky Champion, Rick Law has stepped forward as the man who wants to stop the seemingly unstoppable 'Dark Destroyer' but he comes into this one severely hindered. Not only has Frehley recently gained back-up in the form of a towering man named Big Bubba but Law seemingly broke his jaw at the latest American Wrestling show but has insisted on still stepping up to fight here. Who knows how much a toll this will take the man of justice?

 

Jaime Quine © vs Alicia Strong vs Sara Marie

The third of our four title matches features the women's title on the line. Strong & Marie faced off for #1 contendership a few weeks back but the match ended in a double count-out. Rather than drag the affair out any longer the champion, and darling of Social Media, stated arrogantly that she'll face both here at the event and still emerge as champion. With Sara Marie being a former champion and Strong being a former 7-time champion it surely won't be as straightforward as Quine is proclaiming.

 

Rich Money © vs Running Wolf

The World Championship is on the line here as Money looks to make his 8th successful defence of the title in his 6 months as champion so far. Wolf has been riding a strong wave of momentum in his fight against The Business but is yet to win the big one in his young career. Money hasn't had the best of times of late through his stable and that could be cause for distraction and playing on his mind. Plus with the return of Champion a few days ago to back-up the babyfaces this could be Wolf's time to rise to the top of the food chain.

 

And that is the official line-up for Stars, Stripes & Slams! We also potentially could have Natural Storm vs Heavy Duty and Joss Thompson vs Enygma as were alluded to on American Wrestling a few days ago so that just stacks the card even more so than it already is. USPW have been looking to kick-off the new decade strongly under the tenure of Alicia Strong running the show and this looks to be a promising start to it all. We'll see you Saturday night!

USPW Tag Team Championship

Jett & Moor © vs Shockwave

 

Atlas & Jumbo Jackson had a look of grit and determination that seemed to want to overcompensate for the minor hobble that Jumbo had when walking to the ring. The champions entered second with a bounce in their step as they high-fived the fans at ringside.

The match began in swift fashion with Jett utilising his speed and agility to keep the injured Jumbo a step behind and looking inept as he flailed to try and grab Jett. Several swift kicks and blocks to the knee of Jackson ensured the babyface kept the advantage and he started looking to connect with a few more moves from the top rope. Several did but he went for one too many and Jumbo using his Hulk like upper body strength swatted Jett out of the air like a house fly as the high-flyer crumpled to the ground. The big, bad duo then began using some heelish tag work to put a hurting on the lightweight. Atlas took his time in inflicting punishment and made it look easy keeping Moor at bay while pummeling his partner. The crowd got involved and look to bring life back into Jett and they did so at just the right time. It looked as though he was about to be planted by a powerbomb but he wriggled free and hot-tagged Moor and began to go to work. Atlas found a brief second to slap in Jackson who hadn't expected the tag. He gingerly stepped back into the ring and Moor instantly began targeting the knee. Moor locked in a figure-four leglock and before Atlas even had the opportunity to break up the hold Jumbo slapped the mat in agony and submitted.

The champions held their titles high and retreated up the ramp leaving Atlas towering over his fallen partner. He attempted to help up Jumbo but Jackson quickly fell back to the mat clutching his knee. A look of embarrassment and disgust came across the face of Atlas and he stepped out leaving his partner alone in pain.

 

Winner: Jett & Moor (Jett & Moor make the 4th defence of their Tag Team Championships)

Rating: 59

USPW National Championship

'Smooth' Roger Cage © [vs] 'The Bronzed God' Zeus

 

This match decided to forgo any 'lock-ups' or formalities as both competitors immediately opted for hard strikes and a brawling start. A fairly even opening gradually slid towards the favour of Zeus after an, unseen by the ref, rake of the eyes of the champion. This offered Zeus the opportunity to mount an offense surrounded around working the arms of the champion. The challenger continued in this fashion with great effectiveness focusing particularly on Cage's right arm slamming it into the ring post, the mat and stomping on it. Cage had a brief flurry of a comeback but it was cut-off when the duo of Bad Intentions entered the ringside area stealing the focus from his opponent. This was all Zeus required to recover, stomp at the back of the leg of Cage to bring him to his knees and then snatch his arm maneuvering himself into a cross armbreaker leaving the champ in agony. For what felt like minutes but was perhaps only 20 seconds Zeus yanked and stretched the champs arm but Cage absolutely refused to give in, attempted a couple of escapes but to no avail. Zeus flattened himself out, back on the mat exerting all force he could to force the submission and Cage did the only thing he possibly could. He mustered enough momentum through struggling and rolling to push himself towards the challenger, roll him up and stay there long enough to get the extremely unlikely 3-count.

 

Winner: Roger Cage (Cage makes the 4th defence of his National Championship)

Roger Cage - Zeus - Bash Street - Siale Valhalla

(Post-match angle)

 

Zeus is absolutely aghast and in disbelief at trying to figure out how he lost this match. The referee grabs Cage's title and helps him up the ramp and to the back as the champion celebrates gingerly clutching his arm to his chest. Bash & Siale seem to almost share a slight chuckle to themselves at their own disbelief to the situation before them. Zeus catches them, exits the ring and approaches both. He verbally berates them for finding humour in this and for not doing enough to help him before slapping them both across the face and heading to the back.

'The Iron Lady' Jillian Jarvis [vs] 'The Lone Wolf' Pariah

 

Pariah comes into this one riding a huge wave of momentum and the fans let her know that they are fully on her side. She offers a hand to Jarvis but Jarvis slaps it away and quickly snatches on a headlock as this one gets underway. It proves to be an exceptionally even contest in the early stages with both displaying more than adequate technical skills. When this proves them to be fairly evenly matched they opt to trade strikes in the centre of the ring with 'boos' for every Jarvis strike and 'cheers' for every Pariah blow. Both exuded toughness and grit during this stage but even Pariah couldn't chink the armour of the aptly named 'Iron Lady' and eventually regretted trying to go blow for blow with the 34 year old.

The match continued with Jarvis having the upper hand but a missed clothesline allowed pariah to counter with a super kick that left Jarvis reeling. From here Pariah rode the wave of momentum from her comeback spots and eventually landed a second Super Kick that floored Jarvis. It only brought about a 2.8 count and Pariah ascended to the top rope and awaited Jarvis finding her feet before launching herself into the air and snapping on her vicious Tornado DDT for the victory.

Jillian Jarvis - Pariah

(Post-match angle)

 

Pariah celebrates her victory as her hot streak continues and she high-fives and celebrates with fans at ringside before re-entering the ring. She waits for Jarvis to rise to her feet and the two stare at each other briefly before Jarvis extends a hand-out. Pariah meets it and the two shake hands in a great show of respect for each other before the celebrations continue.

"It would seem that time is not on our side tonight and so unfortunately D.C and I will not be in action. But fear not friends as our match with Heavy Duty will instead take place on next Wednesday's American Wrestling. So, Ladies and Gentlemen, if you have any interest in seeing D.C and I continue our dominant streak over The Business and be the reason for Thatcher and Ducont eventually getting kicked out of the group because, let's face it, that's an inevitability at this stage then please join us on Wednesday evening because once I dispose of this bumbling duo... I'm coming for Rich Money next!

Bulldozer Brandon Smith, Casey Valentine & Charity Sweet [vs] Trent Shaffer, Kirk Jameson & Raven Robinson

 

The first ever fully integrated mixed tag team match in USPW was an exciting affair between six terrific talents. Bulldozer and Trent kicked off the action in this one which made sense given that they are the reason that these six are now here together. Smith led the early goings with some strong offence but a sneaky tag to 'The Marksman' allowed the heels to gain the upper hand. Raven tagged herself in to take advantage of the downed Smith but once he began to recover she opted to tag back out. The heels continued in this quick tag fashion keeping the big man grounded and even once he made the tag to Casey, Valentine found himself in the same spot and couldn't turn the tide. Robinson was back in and putting a hurt on Valentine with headlocks and cranking the neck of the second generation star. He turned the tide though with a german suplex out of nowhere and made the hot-tag to Charity who fired up and went to work on Robinson and even knocking Trent & Kirk to the floor in the process. She hit top rope and went for her Sugar Smack cutter but Raven dodged and tagged in Jameson who instantly started stomping on the legs of Sweet. Her partners attempted to intervene but were cut off by his partners. With Sweet screaming in pain and clutching her legs Jameson took the opportunity to snatch on his Bullseye cloverleaf submission causing Sweet to tap out instantly.

The heels celebrated swiftly but hit the ramp as the faces cleared the ring. Smith & Valentine lifted Sweet and helped her out the ring as the heels looked on laughing.

Joss Thompson - Enygma

Call Out Brawl

 

Joss Thompson's music hit and he entered the arena to resounding jeers from those in attendance. He looked in no mood to mess around and wanted to fight. He entered the ring, called out for Enygma and awaited the masked veterans arrival which seemingly would never come. Enygma, however, emerged from underneath the ring behind JT rolled into it and sent Thompson flying through the ropes and to the floor with an emphatic drop kick. Not pausing for even a second Enygma then hit the ropes behind him, charged towards The Complete Package and vaulted himself over the top ropes in a tópe suicida to send Thompson to the floor again. The two then continued to brawl up the rampway and then they found themselves over the barricade and fighting through the audience. Thompson was reeling but grabbed a couple of chairs on his way through the crowd and started throwing them at Enygma to give himself some time but the veteran just kept coming. They continued brawling out onto the concourse where eventually arena security showed up and kept the two seperated as this 'match' had never even officially begun.

The Texas Express [vs] The Cold Warriors

 

The Cold Warriors utilised their years of tag team experience and chemistry together to take charge of the early goings in this one but The Texas Express continued to rally and ensure that the veteran duo would know they were in for a fight. As the match progressed Cooper and Turk realised that if they could keep the 49 year old Krusher isolated from his partner they may have a better shot at victory and that's just what they did. Novak attempted to cause break ups but the babyfaces were wise to any potential antics and showed smarts beyond their years. With the advantage firmly on their side Turk bounced Karloff off the ropes, hoisted him and propelled him through the air towards Cooper who planted him with a cutter for their Dallas Drop finish. The ref counted to 3 and it's a momentum boosting win for The Texas Express.

Two out of Three falls

Rick Law [vs] Steve Frehley

 

Rick Law entered the ring to a strong ovation from those in attendance and put on a brave face despite clearly seeming in pain with several bandages wrapped around his head and a guard covering most of his face. A broken jaw wouldn't do him any favours in this match but he was determined to continue regardless. The Dark Destroyer entered the ring and hadn't even a hint of mercy in his eyes. The bell rang and Frehley sprang from his corner with enormous agility and planted Law with a crushing big boot that instantly floored him. Frehley then continued to lay in heavy fists at the jaw of Law as we could hear him screaming in agony but failing to fight off Frehley. Frehley was so confident in himself that he pulled Law to his feet and then invited Big Bubba into the ring for a free shot. Bubba obliged and sent Law to the mat with a jaw shattering right hand that left the ref no option but to call for the DQ and give Law the first fall. Frehley chuckled to himself and covered Law for the 3 count instantly levelling the score. He pulled Law to his feet and threw him face first onto the turnbuckle in the corner before hoisting Law onto his shoulders and hitting him with Frehley's comet quickly followed by the 3-count. In a little over 5-minutes and after a truly dominant display this one was over.

Steve Frehley - Big Bubba - Rick Law - Nicky Champion

(Post-match Brawl)

 

Frehley and Bubba clearly weren't wholly satisfied with the hurting they just laid down and felt like they had to do something else to continue sending a message but they wouldn't get the opportunity to. The pounding of drums echoed throughout the arena as 49,000 fans stood to attention and roared to greet Mr USPW Nicky Champion who sprinted to the ring, just as Bubba exited. Champion made a beeline for Frehley and the two traded blows but Frehley couldn't hold off Hawkeye for long. Champion stepped through the rope and readied himself for his Hawkeye Hammer but was pulled to the floor by Bubba who latched on an enormous bear hug that looked to squeeze the life out of Champion. He held it for about 30 seconds and as we saw Champion fading he threw the Icon into the ring. Champion stumbled to his feet and was met with a Dark Destroyer Spear to jeers from the audience. Nicky Champion is certainly back but it appears that Frehley still has his number.

USPW Womens Championship

Jaime Quine © [vs] Alicia Strong [vs] Sara Marie

 

A trio of talent in this one that account for 9 of the 22 championship reigns that this title contains in it's history. This triple threat was a great match that really showcased why the USPW women's division may be the strongest in wrestling today. A healthy mix of brawling, technical and aerial offence in this match ensured something for everyone. Quine had a few moments throughout where she looked in danger and with only a 33% chance of retaining but Quine is as wily a champion as they come. With Strong seemingly out of action Sara Marie planted the champion with her Energy Burst finisher not once but twice and made the cover but Strong broke up the pin, sent Marie flying from the ring and covered herself but Quine kicked out at 2.9 to the surprise of Strong. Strong fumed and raised Quine to her feet and attempted a Strong Arm Tactic but the champion ducked it and hit her patented K.O. Kick. Sara Marie entered the fray but was also met with a K.O. Kick herself. Quine continued to compose herself and hit a second K.O. Kick on Strong as she was rising to her feet. Quine then covered the 7-time champion and secured the pinfall to defend her title.

 

Winner: Jaime Quine (Quine makes the 9th defence of her women's championship)

Rich Money - Running Wolf

Hype Video Package

 

We receive the classic hype video package that covered the recent history of these two individuals and all the shenanigans that have surrounded them. The video does an excellent job of building the feud nicely with Wolf appearing to be a very legitimate threat to the reign of Rich Money.

USPW World Championship

Rich Money © [vs] Running Wolf

 

The two prize fighters entered this one with fierce looks of determination etched across their faces. Most of The Business were absent from Money's side tonight with the exception of his protégé Sterling Whitlock. Wolf, as is usually the case, was flying solo in this one but he would never let that be an issue. For the first 12 minutes of this championship match it was relatively even with Money perhaps being the more dominant of the two in terms of offense but it took a few eye pokes and cheap tactics to end up in this situation. Money ascended to the top rope and looked intent on hitting his Dollars From Heaven frog splash but Wolf kipped up, sprang to the top rope to meet Money and land a Superplex on the champion that 'popped' the crowd. The momentum shifted and Wolf was now in charge. He 'fired up' and hit a trio of suplexes followed up by a standing moonsault but could only muster a 2 count. The challenger was frustrated but not discouraged however Whitlock chose this moment to get involved. He sprang into the ring and charged at Wolf who ducked his clothesline and floored Whitlock with a big boot. He then stepped through the ropes and prepared to vault himself into the ring for his friends Hawkeye Hammer which crushed Whitlock. Wolf saw Money slowly rising to his feet and hoisted the champion onto his shoulders and he flattened the champion with his Wolf Tamer (AA) finish and made the cover...

FOOT ON THE ROPES! But it wasn't from Money's own efforts. Wolf looks up in disbelief and sees Jack Jackson stood ringside looking very smug and pleased with himself. Jackson pulled Money's foot onto the bottom rope. Wolf chuckles lightly to himself before rolling out the wrong and setting after Double J. They run around the ring twice before JJ rolls into the ring and begins to roll out the other side. While Wolf continues to chase he is met by Money as he enters the ring who halts the challengers momentum with a stiff armed clothesline. A swift boot the gut follows on the downed Wolf as Money slowly ascends to the top rope. He poses for the fans before flying through the air and flattening Wolf with Dollars From Heaven. He makes the cover...

FOOT ON THE ROPES! Money left the challenger to close to the ropes and the challenger had the wherewithal to get his foot onto the rope. Money looks pissed and looks across to JJ who now has Whitlock standing beside him looking irked at the youngsters presence. Money pulls Wolf into the centre of the ring, ascends to the top rope again and hits Dollars From Heaven for the second time. He makes the cover...

KICKOUT! The match seemed a foregone conclusion but Running Wolf may be the most determined challenger Money has had yet during this title reign. The champion can't believe what's happening. Double J attempts to roll into the ring but the referee confronts him and attempts to prevent him from doing so. This affords Whitlock the chance to enter the ring. He quickly hoists Wolf up to his feet before planting him with Whitlock's End (DDT). Money doesn't cover though instead grabbing Wolf by the legs, hoisting them and flipping him over into his Bank Roll Boston Crab. Wolf bursts to life with the pain in his back and legs sending a jolt through him as he desperately crawls towards the rope. He attempts to latch onto the bottom rope but Jackson grabs it and pulls it a few inches further away from the reach of the challenger. This allows Money time to pull Wolf back into the centre of the ring where, despite the challengers best efforts, he has no option but to submit.
