From Rob Brodhecker: There are 5 matches scheduled for tonight highlighted by a 2 out of 3 falls tag match for the PWA Tag Team Titles...
There are 5 matches scheduled for tonight highlighted by a 2 out of 3 falls tag match for the PWA Tag Team Titles between the champions Beauty and the Beast and High Profile. At the last show, there was a double pinfall where a member of both teams shoulders was counted down. PWA Commissioner Tommy TooMuch then made the match for tonight a 2 out of 3 falls match.
Other matches scheduled are Austynn Madison vs Taylor Rae, Shane Marx (with DeWitt Dawson) vs P-Dogg Mike Posey, Shane Noles vs Shean Christopher, and Ace Haven will defend the PWA No Limits title against "Lights!" Cameron Action.
To me, PWA is searching for the next "hot" angle to re-invigorate their fan base. Since the Alliance basically crashed and burned, there hasn't been a really heelish figure for the PWA faithful to take their ire out on.
Jason Boyd is your ring announcer. The referee's tonight are Darryl Hall and Bucky.
Shean Christopher vs Shane Noles
Shean Christopher vs Shane Noles
Christopher is making a return appearance to PWA, he mainly wrestles out of Alabama. Christopher bails soon after the bell rings. Shane tosses Shean out of the ring with a couple of suplexes. Shane is chopping Shean's chest like crazy. Shane piledrives Shean for a 2 count. Shean counters with a small package pile driver for the near fall. Shane wins at 8:49 with a leaping lariat. The crowd was lively and vocal in their disdain for Shean and cheering for Shane. I give it a B-
Jason comes into the ring with a piece of paper from the office of Commissioner Tommy TooMuch. Shane reads the note and it says that Shane will get his shot at PWA Heritage title held by Sal Rinauro under 1 condition which will be announced on April 20th
The PWA Women's title has been vacant for over a year and a new champion will be crowned at the PWA 11th anniversary show on May 18th.
Taylor Rae vs Austynn Madison
A battle of 2 fan favorites in the women's division. I'm not feeling this match. A ton of miscues. Taylor wins at 6:05. The crowd sat on their hands for most of the match and I don't blame them. D+.
"Lights" Cameron Action vs Ace Haven for the PWA No Limits Championship
No Amy Haven tonight. I think that this is the PWA debut for Action and they found someone paler than Ace! I kid! I kid! Action has been a staple in the Alabama promotions for a couple of years now. The action spills out of the ring and into the crowd. Action grabs the ring bell and tries to hit Ace. Ace dodges but Action slams Ace's head onto the ringside table. The bell is on the ring apron. Action sets the bell in between 2 turnbuckles. Ace grabs it and throws it at and hits action with it. Ace then locks in his submission and Action taps at 12:36. The match started slow and then picked up when they went outside and into the ringside area. B+
High Profile (Will Demented & Shea McGrady) vs Beauty and the Beast (Nate Wild and Ethan Cage) for the PWA Tag Team Titles
Boyd announces the match for 1 fall but one of HP gets on the mic and lays into him about this match is going to be a 2 out of 3 falls match. Each team comes out with one belt. HP attack before the bell and toss Wilde out the ring. HP double team Cage and he falls out of the ring. Wild is back in and asks the crowd if he should hit one member of HP. The other member of HP comes in from behind and rolls up Wild for the first fall in 42 seconds. The second fall starts with HP in firm control. Wilde is isolated. Hot tag to Cage. BB try for a double team but are foiled. HP try for their own double team but Wilde breaks it up. BB hit their finisher for the second fall at 6:40. HP are targeting Cage's leg. Hot tag to Wilde and Bb are in control. BB hit their double team finisher for the third fall at 3:46 to claim both title belts. This was a pretty good match, A-.
As BB were about to enter the curtained off area, Romeo and CB Suave attack from behind. They leave BB laying out and they have some microphones. CB says that the fans thought that he and Romeo were dumb enough to quit. They want their rematch for the tag titles on April 20th. Cage says that the 20th isn't good and suggests that the rematch happens tonight for the main event. CB quickly accepts. CB and a ringside fan almost come to blows.
"P-Dogg" Mike Posey vs Shane Marx (with DeWitt Dawson)
P-Dogg does his rap intro and then says that he's the world's battle rap champion and in 2 weeks he'll introduce the championship title to the crowd. DeWitt and Shane come out and the crowd dances along with them as they parade around the ring. DeWitt's on the mic and he introduces Shane. The match starts with an impromptu dance-off. Marx in control for the first 5 minutes of the match. Posey catches Marx as Marx was entering the ring from the outside. Posey targeting Marx's leg. Shane's comeback is hampered by the weakened knee. Posey works on the knee more but Marx is able to overcome "Hard Times" and pins Posey at 15:14 with his brainbuster. A very entertaining match, A-
The Alliance (CB Suave and Romeo) vs Beauty and the Beast (Nate Wilde and Ethan Cage) for the PWA Tag Team Titles
Due to what happened earlier in the night, several members of the crowd would like nothing better than to see CB and Romeo get hurt tonight. If looks could kill, CB would be doing an impersonation of Julius Ceasar. BB are selling the effects of their earlier match but are in early control. Interference by CB gives Romeo the advantage. CB is showing off a really vicious side of himself. The Alliance targets the injured leg of Cage. And here I was wondering about who could rile up the crowd. Hot tag to Wilde. Wilde tries for a leap over the top rope but CB shoves Romeo out of the way and Wilde crashes hard. Hope spot for Wilde and a tag to Cage. A near fall on Romeo. BB set up for a double team, CB sideswipes Wilde. CB takes out Cage and rolls Romeo on top for the pin. Time: 14:05. More than a few members of the crowd look like they want to jump the rails and attack the Alliance. The Alliance gloat in the ring and taunt the crowd. The sheer drama earns this an A+. No one in the crowd wants to leave!
Well, the Alliance is back and is more vicious and obnoxious than ever. There is another interaction with the fans and talent. The heat generated tonight is intense, but not the usual vocal displeasure. This was the kind of heat that can lead to meetings in a dark alley with bats and knuckle dusters. My question would be if CB Suave and Romeo came back alone, or is there someone else showing up as a singles competitor. April 20th is the next show and the 11th-anniversary show is on May 19th.
