ONE and ONLY Shane Shamrock Memorial Cup 04 Thread

Recommended Posts

Guest TonyJaymzV1

For the last couple years, the SSMC has beeen my favorite Indy card,a nd now with ROH taking care of it, this year should be the best ever.

 

If you've never seen a SSMC, this is how it goes: You have 6 singles matches, and the winners of those matches go on to one crazy six man elimination match. Sounds hard to pull off, but these matches have all been good, with last year's being the best.

 

-AJ Styles is slated to appear on the car, but IMO will probably be defending the Pure Wrestling Title.

 

-Austin Aries and Matt Stryker are in the tournament now. Stryker is going to the finals, I gurantee it.

 

Fantasy Booking~

Heres how I'd like the cup to go...

Alex Shelley vs. Jerrelle Clark

Christian York vs. B-Boy

Izzy vs. Reckless Youth/Tom Carter

The Amazing Red vs. Jimmy Jacobs

Super Dragon vs. Qeenan Creed

Matt Stryker vs. BJ Whitmer

 

Final Match:

Jerrelle Clark vs. B-Boy vs. Reckless Youth vs. The Amazing Red vs. Qeenan Creed vs. Matt Stryker

I believe A.J. Styles is already scheduled to be in the tournament, and the Briscoe Brothers are signed for the show and may be in the tournament as well. My guess is Joey Matthews will be brought in, and maybe even Christian York to defend the Cup. C.M. Punk and Homicide are good bets to be added to the tournament. Amazing Red, John Walters, Tom Carter, Trent Acid, and Xavier would be good choices to fill out the rest of the spots. My fantasy brackets would be.

 

A.J. Styles vs. Mark Briscoe

Amazing Red vs. Jay Briscoe

C.M. Punk vs. Homicide

Christian York vs. Joey Matthews

John Walters vs. Xavier

Tom Carter vs. Trent Acid

 

A.J. Styles vs. Homicide vs. Jay Briscoe vs. Joey Matthews vs. John Walters vs. Trent Acid

 

My pick would be John Walters winning the Cup.

No, don't let Red in. I'm already planning on attending that show and I don't want to see Red. Grrr.

 

I'd like to see Rave in it as well.

Well, Jimmy Rave would be a pretty good choice as well. If he were to be in it I would take Amazing Red out, put Mark Briscoe against Jay Briscoe in the first round, and A.J. Styles vs. Jimmy Rave in the first round.

"Bryan Danielson vs. Jack Evans"

 

That could be really bad, or not so bad. It could have an interesting story. Let's see what Danielson could bring out of Jack Evans.

 

The cup looks stacked. I expect someone to go over Joe, and then push that person for the title, maybe Shelley.

This looks like it could be really awesome, depending on the way they decide to book the singles matchs this could be a must buy event for me.

They've announced:

 

Bryan Danielson vs. Jack Evans

Samoa Joe vs. Matt Stryker

Homicide vs. Jay Briscoe

 

That leaves Shelley, Aries, Mark Briscoe, John Walters, Trent Acid, and Colt Cabana.

I reckon it will be: Shelly vs Walters, Aries vs Trent Acid and Cabana vs Briscoe. Or rather thats what I'd like it to be anyway. I like the look of the 3 already announced anyway.

Okay, so tell me why again Homicide and Samoa Joe, and to a lesser extent Colt Cabana, are in the SSMC?

 

It's a cruiserweight tournament! ARGH!

 

Hopefully though, since Chad and Dino are working the card they'll impress and get full time spots, but I doubt it, especially since they are in a battle royal.

Now they are looking for a new venue for the show, the one in MD that they usually run in is out.

this just in from pwinsider.com;

 

"The scheduled 6/24 Shane Shamrock Memorial Cup event has been moved to Essington, PA right outside Philadelphia at the Ramada Holiday Inn. The venue recently hosted a WORLD-1 event.

 

The Essington, PA event will be locally promoted by Chuck Williams (aka wrestler The Rockin' Rebel), who is a member of the State Athletic Commission.

 

Fans who hold tickets for the Glen Burnie, MD venue and wish to exchange or return them can email [email protected] for information on how that will be handled."

 

* just glad to help out fellow fans...

It appears the Maryland promoter pulled out after Rob Feinstein blabbed that he was still involved behind the scenes after the RF Video/ROH split. What a shock that is. So, I guess TNA owns ROH or something now, according to Gabe? (it's hard to understand him when he talks out of both sides of his mouth).

Anyway this was disappointing as I was all set to make this my first ROH live event, and make the the trip to Glenn Burnie, but I guess now I just have to get tickets for RAW in DC....

actually i know the whole story. RF was behind the scenes, still, in ROH for the last couple of months, then we have the split, and RF blabs his mouth. The Md Promoter says no to ROH because they lied. Gabe aid he knew for a fact RF was gone...well, that was defently a lie, so because of their shit they screwed over all the Maryland and ex-MCW fans.

 

and whats with calling me a wannabe smark? Jeez, if anything, I'm an MCW mark, which is the reason I'm so mad. For the last couple years, I've always looked forward to one show:The Shane Shamrock Memorial Cup. But now all the MCW and ROH maryland fans either A) have to find a way to the new venue, in PA< on a weekday(most people generally work during the week) or B) Get a refund on their tickets. Why do you think its a $5 show now? because they know their MD fans probably can't go.

 

I'm very suprised at all the ROH marks, especially on their website, appluading Gabe for quick action, blaming the NCW Promoter who was ROH's MD promoter, and then Gabe saying "Sorry, this was beyond our control" when it is Gabes and ROH's fault for lieing to the everyone about Rob Feinstein.

 

so yeah maybe I want to "spaz" a little bit

Well its cool that you're an MCW mark. I'm an ROH mark. I can respect that you want the tourny hald in Maryland. But personnally, I don;t think Gabe knew RF was getting money from the ROH/RF Video president Doug Gentry. Doug and RF were close, but I know Gabe wanted no part of RF after the incident. If I was a MCW mark though, I would be happy that they are still at least running the tourny, they could have easily cancelled the show.

 

PS...sorry for the wanna be comment, I guess I want to spaz sometimes too! Thanks for the respectable reply too.

The point of the SSMC was to pass the torch on of Maryland wrestling to RoH...moving the show to Philly doesn't exactly do that, does it? There's the problem.

Considering that they already buchered the concept of the tournament to begin with(heavyweights?WTF?) and the fact that it's being held outside of MD, well, quite frankly, to me and others it has been canceled. Like I said before most of the MCW fans aren't hardcore wrestling fans, a good amount are, but the general population was casual fans, families and young children. They followed MCW because it was a nice getaway, cleaner than WWE, a chance for the young'uns to have fun with their family. I doubt they are going to drive into PA on a weekday night.

 

And quite frankly, Gabe is to blame for this. If he didn't know, then he's just an idiot, as all the signs were there, and if I was a booked of a promotion I'd know everything about it top to bottom. There's no excuse for that kind of ignorance.

 

and if he did know? Well, again he's an idiot because he lost a fanbase over a pedophile.

The show's tonight, so I figured I'd bump this. It's not the SSMC anymore, but it still should be a great show.

 

Now if ROH could just get their out of ring stuff figured out...

From redismyhero:

 

Just got off the phone with my friend. The new Code Of Honor is pretty much exactly the same. There is a Generation Next shirt with the logo on the front and "The Rest Can Move Aside" on the back of it. The Contender's Ring is like the top 5 except there is no set number of people in it and it's very prestiguous to be in it. Voting will be held similar to a Hall Of Fame for it and if a wrestler is on 75% of the ballots he is including and elgible for a title shot of his choice. The show begins at 8:00. New on the website is it will remain ROHWrestling.com but will be down for about a week due to server changes. I'll update as the info comes in.
