LucharesuFan619 0 Report post Posted October 12, 2003 (edited) Results from UIPW's WRESTLESTOCK - Saturday October 11th in Erie, PA including NEW Heavyweight champion Al B Damm wins the ‘Union Rules’ battle royal by pinning Carlton Kaz. The last two participants in this ten-man battle royal had to fight to a pinfall or submission with the winner receiving the title shot of his choice at the December 6th Union event. After tying Kaz to the ‘tree of woe’, Damm hit the ‘Coast-to-Coast’, a VanTerminator that goes from corner to OPPOSITE corner (not adjacent corner like the RVD or Shane McMahon version). Damm, showing incredible respect for his rival, chose to take the December Tag Team title shot and chose Carlton Kaz as his partner. Devil Bhudakahn and AERO! Came out of the dressing room and challenged the newly formed team to a match later in the show for their just earned title shot. Kaz and Damm accepted. ‘Amazing’ Kevin Grace pinned Adam Cage with a handful of tights. On his own once again, the All-Knighter resorted to underhanded tactics to gain the duke. After the match, Cage’s frustration got the better of him and he threatened referee Bruce Gray, until J-Rocc came to the ring and managed to calm Cage down. ‘Union Boss’ Kingdom James came to the ring to figure out what to do about the scheduled Union Tag Team title defense for the evening since he had learned that Sebastian Dark’s championship partner Shirley Doe would not be in the building that night. Dark came to the ring saying he would defend the belts alone but Kingdom would not allow it. The Grubby Holler Boys came to the ring saying that they would not be denied their title match and made some thinly veiled remarks towards Kingdom being “that certain type of person” that wouldn’t get away with taking away their title shot if they were all in Tennessee. Sebastian was then given the opportunity to choose a new partner from the official list of Union Members. Sebastian took advantage of a clerical error that had left the retired Kingdom James on the list and chose the Union Boss as his partner. Kingdom accepted and made the match a no-DQ street fight just for good measure. Al B Damm and Carlton Kaz defeated Devil Bhudakahn and AERO! The newly formed duo of Kaz and Damm came through with flying colors earning a pinfall victory in this incredible battle of Union cruiserweights to retain their shot at the Tag Team titles. Josh Prohibition pinned Raymond Right with the ‘Drunken Driver’ Prohibition recovered from a series of brutal suplexes from ‘Mr. Right’, including a triple-decker German (Prohibition had a waist lock on referee Bruce Gray and Right suplexes them BOTH!) to hit his patented double-underhook piledriver for the victory. Sebastian Dark and Kingdom James defeated Big Hungry Chuck and Big Thirsty Jake by pinfall to retain the Union Tag Team titles. In a match that involved tables, chairs, a cow bell, a noose, an axehandle, the patented Union stop sign, a Cleveland wrestling promoter and about 1000 thumbtacks being used as foreign objects, best friends (and often bitter rivals) Dark and James defeated the Grubby Holler Boys. After managing to isolate Big Thirsty Jake, Sebastian locked on the ‘Sebazmission’ (a katahajime/camel clutch combination) and Kingdom smashed Jake in the face with the stop sign. Dark then rolled Jake for the pin. Eric Xtasy pinned J-Rocc. The flamboyant Xtasy hit his patented finisher, the STD (Sexually Transmitted Driver) for the pinfall victory but J-Rocc and his new crony, Adam Cage, viciously attacked Eric after the bell. Sterling James Keenan defeated Fabulous in a ladder match to win the Keystone State Cruiserweight title. Near the end of a stunning match between the two young men, Sterling went to throw powder into the eyes of Fabulous to distract him long enough to climb the ladder and capture the belt. But Fabulous ducked the blinding cloud, which then struck the referee. Fabulous threw Sterling out of the ring, climbed the ladder and grabbed his title belt, but with the referee blinded in the corner, Keenan had time to recover, attack the hometown hero and hit his finisher, the MK Ultra onto the title belt. Sterling then grabbed the belt, climbed up two rungs of the ladder and yelled for the referee. With his eyes starting to clear from the powder, the ref saw Keenan with the belt and declared him the winner and new champion. After the match, Fabulous threw the ladder out of the ring in a fit of rage that included hitting a ‘styles clash’ on the referee. Kingdom James, having removed a sufficient number of thumbtacks from his back to appear before the crowd again, declared that Keenan, who was belligerent in victory, would defend his title December 6th against Fabulous. Kingdom said that even though he could appreciate a good ‘cheat-to-win’ scenario and had promised never to undermine any Union referee by reversing their decisions, he wouldn’t allow another travesty of justice where Fabulous was concerned and that he, Kingdom James, would referee the rematch himself. ‘Mdogg20’ Matt Cross pinned Jerry Lynn to win the vacant Union Heavyweight title. In a match so good that it received loud chants of “best match ever” and a 5-minute standing ovation at its conclusion, young upstart Cross defeated friend and mentor Jerry Lynn to become the third-ever Union Heavyweight champion. Words can barely describe how entertaining this match was to watch. Lynn, who had earlier in the day, taught a seminar to a group of young wrestlers on ring fundamentals and philosophy, took Cross to school early in the match. Mdogg not only hung on, but fought back, eventually hitting a spectacular shooting star press to gain the pin, the title and the vociferous respect of the crowd. Both men hugged in the ring as the crowd chanted for a rematch. The Union of Independent Professional Wrestlers returns to the Brookside Community Center (3502 Athens Road) in Erie, PA on Saturday night December 6th. Tickets go on sale next week at Game Time Sports Collectables (4535 Buffalo Road), American Fitness Gym (Greengarden and 38th) and online at http://www.wrestlersunion.com. All seats are $10 each. And look for information on the rescheduled “Fan Fantasy Camp” in the days ahead. Also, if you call yourself an indy wrestling fan, you really owe it to yourself to purchase at least one video from UIPW. Their videos showcase their full events and cost a whopping, inexpensive, cheap, reasonable, whatever you wanna call it TWELVE dollars. Compare that to RF Video, SMV, MLW, etc.'s prices for one tape and there's no comparison. Check out WrestlersUnion.com for more info.

Guest Markingout Report post Posted October 13, 2003 I dont understand how an Matt Cross match could be Best Match Ever... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Corey_Lazarus 0 Report post Posted October 13, 2003 Neither do I. Probably a very entertaining match (as Cross will DIE FOR OUR PLEASURE~!), but definitely not a possible "greatest match ever." Still, I'd like to see a tape of this show... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LucharesuFan619 0 Report post Posted October 13, 2003 Neither do I. Probably a very entertaining match (as Cross will DIE FOR OUR PLEASURE~!), but definitely not a possible "greatest match ever." Agreed. The reporter did, though, say that the fans were chanting "Best Match Ever," so unless he's lying, it may not have mirrored Kobashi/Kawada, but it had to be pretty damn good. Markingout, check out Hero/M-Dogg in IWA if you really want to see how good M-Dogg can be when he works w/ the right opp. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Markingout Report post Posted October 13, 2003 Hell,I know M-dogg is good. But "best match ever"? Anyways,anyone can have a good match with Chris Hero. Plus when your there live you tend too think a match is better than it really is. Like Sonjay and Daniels at War Games. People were chanting "Match of the Year". When I got home I thought to myself it was awesome,but not match of the year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So what if anyone can have a good match w/ Hero? Anyone can have a good match with Lynn and Daniels, too. "Plus when your there live you tend too think a match is better than it really is. Like Sonjay and Daniels at War Games. People were chanting "Match of the Year". When I got home I thought to myself it was awesome,but not match of the year." And that's why I said "The reporter did, though, say that the fans were chanting "Best Match Ever," so unless he's lying, it may not have mirrored Kobashi/Kawada, but it had to be pretty damn good."
