LucharesuFan619 0 Report post Posted January 17, 2004 Credit: CZWWrestling.com/McGee CZW debuted in Allentown on a cold Friday night, entering unfamiliar territory, such that this show was appropriately named The Allentown Project. The quick show results are as follows: Jon Dahmer defeated DJ Hyde. Dahmer split DJ Hyde wide open with one crack of the chair that forced him to be helped to the back. Yellow Michinoku Ranger (Sumie Sakai) defeated Die Hard Joey Corman and Samir defeated Barr and Berk. Barr and Berk will seek revenge as they will square off in a return match tonight in Philadelphia. Joker won a 5-man Elimination match that saw the likes of Corey Kastle, Niles Young, Sabian, and Johnny Storm in a fast-paced match with the future of the CZW Junior Heavyweight Division demonstrating their skills. Joker and Johnny Storm were the last two participants when joker scored the win. Sonjay defeated Derek Frazier to retain his CZW Junior Heavyweight Title. Frazier had everyone fooled when he faked what appeared to be a serous leg injury in order to get the upper-hand on the defending champ. The Backseat Boyz with the wheel-chaired, leg-braced, and neck-braced Dew, who is said to be recovering slowly but nicley from the DVD at COD V, defeated Jimmy Jacobs and Alex Shelley when Jacobs fell victim to the T-Gimmick. After the match, Rebel and Greg Matthews made short work of Alex Shelley to give the Backseat Boyz a preview of what they are in store for tonight in Philadelphia. The Backseat Boyz looked on yet were confident that about their chances tonight. Once the ring cleared, Alex Shelley took upon himself to call out Jacobs for leaving him for dead with Rebel's Army. Shelley made it clear that he was sick and tired of carrying Jacobs and that Jacobs was embarrassing him every time they work as a team for various promotions. Shelley stated that this was the last time and Jacobs cost him CZW Tag-Team Gold last night. Jimmy Rave defeated Ruckus. Being the champion that he is, Jimmy Rave gave Ruckus the chance to win the Iron-Man Title with one fall and any other stipulations. The crowd began to chant for a return to the Old Iron-Man title roots. The fan-friendly Ruckus was more than happy to deny their request. Finally in the Main Event, the team of Ian Knoxx and the H8 Club defeated Messiah, B-Boy, and Adam Flash in a match that had nothing short of an odd ending. The official announcement was that this was to be a "Falls Count Anywhere" Match. Ian Knoxx to the brunt of the punishment as he tried to prove himself to his tag-team partners, the H8 Club. For his efforts, the rising star suffered an injury to what appeared to be his left arm, forcing him to leave the match. Always the opportunists, The Backseat Boyz, fellow Hi-V brethren, came to the ring to add to the onslaught. In an effort to even the sides, Wifebeater hit the ring and planted Adam Flash in the center of the ring through a table for, out of the nowhere, the 1-2-3! CZW will be returning to the Mountainville "Bowling" Center on March 5, 2004... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Zack Malibu 0 Report post Posted January 17, 2004 Sounds like the Knoxx arm injury was a work, if it led to Wifebeater's only appearance on the show. Sounds like an average show, and I'm interested to see how Joker/Storm played out when it came down to them one on one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LucharesuFan619 0 Report post Posted January 17, 2004 Let's be realistic here...when a show sucks, it sucks, and this definitely sounds like a sucky show. The reports from CZWFans.com were decent from the longtime CZW fans, horrible from a first-time attendee, and the worst wrestling show another, relatively long-time CZW fan, has ever been to, period. Jeff Strauch and BarrMark said the show was decent, but they're two of the biggest CZW fans of all. Most others said it was pretty bad, and judging by the results...I tend to agree. The joshi match sounds awesome, Rave/Ruckus sounds good but was said to be subpar, and Sonjay/Frazier was said to be decent. BSB was said to be a clusterfuck with some good comedy. The Storm match was said to be good, but come on...as of late CZW has been pretty good, but this...this show sounds WAY subpar to their usual product. Give em credit when they deserve it, give em shit when they put on shit. This sounded like below average and borderline crap. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ruckus/Rave, the tag team match, and the main event all sound like good matches. The only thing I don't get into are the lower card matches with guys like Dahmer, and I haven't ever seen The Overboyz so I can't judge them. The five man had Joker, who is on a roll after COD5, and Johnny Storm. Surely a semi-decent card, but nothing blowaway. That's reserved for tonight. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JustJoe2k5 0 Report post Posted January 18, 2004 It does look like a rather lackluster show, although it would've been tough for any fed to follow-up Cage of Death V. Tonight's show should more than make up for it though. Alex Shelley vs. Jimmy Rave (Submission match) Jimmy Jacobs vs. Sonjay Dutt Dan Maff vs. Homicide (Strong Style tournament) Reason enough to buy the video right there.
