Nice little surprise match, and a solid showing from Landon and I'm assuming Ace was just as strong.

 

Good promos all round and props to the Masked Man being a triple crown champ(I think?)

 

Danny gets to slap the piss out of someone.

 

Little bit of disappointment with the "Sports Entertainment" finish of the Main event, but I guess it suited the situation.

Looks like good stuff, all though I must admit I'm disappointed in Petey losing his first real match. Disappointed and angry.

Actually, he had to no-show unfortunately. So...yeah.

 

Bit of an odd show. Not sure if it was just me, but it seemed a little...I dunno...just there. Congrats of course all the same to The Sexual Maskosaurus on winning the CROWN~ and to all other winners, especially the newbies.

 

And by the looks of things, everyone who was able to show.

I'd kinda agree with Maddix on the show being 'just there.' That's often the impression that gets left behind when everything is, seemingly, decided by default wins.

 

Never the less, what IS there IS good, and there was no need to call in Ebony for another tour of duty, so that's a bonus (in some respects. But I'm a fan of her's). I would like to see some improved commententing on this show, as the last couple (including the PPV) have had pretty low returns. I'm aware that I haven't exactly been helping, myself, but still -- it's my job to bitch and motivate, first, and not look like a huge goddamend hypocrite second. I'll make sure I have something to say on this show tomorrow.

 

Everyone else, do so now. And that's an order. Bitches.

Right - GOOD opening match for Max King, slots in very nicely. The only thing I noticed was that Riley is meant to know that Petey is Tim Dillon, but be unable to convince Comet of it.

 

Big up to Sly on beating Johnny! Told you this guy was good.

 

Respect to Dustin for showing, at least.

 

The main event - a little bit of Sportz Entertainment never hurt anyone. As long as it's only a little.

 

And Maddix - the match was GREAT. This guy should be in the main event.

 

So I suck at commentary at the moment, I'm sorry. I've just moved house, and now I need to work out how to beat Danny...

[Guest Aecas]

Well first off congratulations to Mr. King for beating up a giant walking penguin, a good effort so it was

 

The Hunt/Black match I found to be quite entertaining, and Bobby Riley got some good comments in during the action, interesting to see more of the action described through comentary for a change.

 

Calling Manson and Munich jobbers *wags finger* I do however mark for the Majora's Mask reference by Comet. Ummm not a lot else I can say apart from the fact that it was an utter squash so now we move on

 

Interesting to see Spike taking control of the match from the start and beatingToxxic around the ring, the Rana to the outside followed by a flip with the old V for Victory was a nice touch as well. Sadly I'm not Dace so i don;t have the skill to describe matches in that level of detail and added to that I don;t have much time left so.....

 

The usual good stuff from TMM and I must say Aecas seems to be attracting nut shots as often as Janus does in TMM's matches, time to invest in that Iron Codpiece methinks! But congratulations all the same mate!

 

Danny Vs. MVS was up next, and well not a lot i can really say except it was the usual goodness we get outta Danny.

 

Austin wins the Cruiserweight Title!

 

Well a pity that Ace had to no show but Maddix's match as JD said was very solid.

 

And then we have the Sports Entertainment finish, but it does seem like the right direction to go in, poor old Tom might need a few new ribs though...

[ChrisMWaters 0]

YAY! I WON MY FIRST MATCH!

 

And the funny thing is...the match was actually longer than what is there, but computer problems cost me so I had to clip it a bit.

[Dace59 0]

Right, here comes my usual stuff:

 

Good little opening promo to set up the on the fly match and to carry on Janus' issues, something we dont see enough of really.

 

Opeing match and the n00bs are in town. Sort of on the fly start to the match as well..Funyon looks like he could be shoved out of the job here. The usual things of being a little like on description and style, but it is a first match so no real complaint to be made. Due to the opponent, the action still feels the comedy, which doesnt help. Going to have to wait for a match against a more serious opponent to see how good King really is.

 

N00b match number two. Little more of a full intro here and some basic heat getting for the new people as well, to get them over with the fans. Riley comes off slighty strong, but that' pretty minor. I dont like calling the action completely throught the commentry in some parts, makes it sort of hard to follow and seem a little thin on what exactly is going on. Again, it's the same thing of a little light on details and pretty spotty with no real plan to it. It just comes back and forth, spot, counter, spot, counter. At lest the finish is good, just holding onto the submission to finally ge the tap.

 

Both of them where fine for new macths, and like most, have the same things that can be worked on just by writing more and reading more matches and stuff. And at least they're showing, which is the main thing.

 

Three way of doom. Dustin comes out and squashes everyone. Eh, if you're going to win like that, you might as well look strong.

 

Onwards, and now we're cooking people. Nice opening banter, which we've been lacking so far this show. Also good to see the choke thing is still going on, running gags and such keep this place funny. Toxxic starts off doing the duck and weave he did against Kibagami, but Spike's faster and can actually land a few blows on him.Some double pysch as Toxxic ducks the Enzuigiri but Spike knows it's coming and re counters. Spike attacking Toxxic as he gets back in keeps him looking like the firey upstart he did against Johnny, as the tumble to the outside. The Spike puns are horrible but in a good way (Y). Spike has to literally fight to get back into the ring, but Toxxic's being a dick and just rana's him off the apron, again making Spike look like the firey young upstart. Spike tries to get lucky as Toxxic gets cocky but it's no good. Even as Spike tries to break into another run, Toxxic just drops him out of the air with a simple move, showing he's the better man (godpush again!) Nice little roll up burst to carry on that theme as well. Toxxic's starting to cheat more, as he eye rakes to cut off the come back and makes another simple more for a close fall. Toxxic keeps on ducking kicks and gets another fall, breaking into his flashy offence for the first time really. Not a shining example of selling, but Spike's playing the upstart, and they always keep coming back everytime they go down. But in the end, Toxxic going to the flashy offense costs him as Spike moves out of the way. But Toxxic's still the better man and manages to counter Spike's finisher anyway. The Double Leg to Jacknife Hold would have been a good place to finishe, with Spike just getting the win from a lucky roll up, but anyway. Toxxic takes out a anouther counter, nice and simple, which works this time and finally drops Spike for the finish. Very nice little match, good writing and such as always form Toxxic and the stories he tells have gotten much better. The selling low key due to Spike still playing the upstart, but the story makes up for that.

 

Multiway madness time now fun. Bwahahahha @ the intro lines. Gotta love Riley being all Kinged out as it where. That and the trumpt call everytime Kingdome is mentioned. Usual intros, get everyone out where in a multiman like this, but with a hint of comedy to go in as well. Aecas takes everyone out at once, and the rest of them have to gang up on the big man to try and take him down. Nice little bit of spot fu with the opening action, because this is a mulitman match up. TMM tries to pull a fast one on the outside but gets dropped. Aecas gets back in the ring and drops Todd as well but then TMM gets back in and drops him. Little heel comedy as TMM tries to cover both Todd and Clark and doesn't get anywhere. We have all the usual things like guys being taken out to keep it roughly one on one, but TMM throws in a nice range of jokes here and here and all the description is good and you know where everyone is. Again theyt have to gang up on Aecas as he just drills TMM, then both Clark and Todd nail flying moves in more spot fu goodness. Todd keeps on kicking the hell out of Clark, even as his leg gets worked over. Clark ends up having it won with the Nagata Lock but TMM's just abel to break it up in time. Little comedy selling spot and TMM final nails a Reverse Inverted Brainbuster for a win. New Triple Crown Champ. Nice multi man, mad as ever but fun to read.

 

Submission match time now. I'm surprised no one's throught to pull that look overe there joke yet with Comet..hmmm. Danny brining up his history with the submission back, but no making MVS look bad either. Simple little opening, where MVS actually dominats to start with, but Danny just shows him up, and being who he is, doesn't attack him while he's down...yet. Danny shows that he can out do MVS fairly easily with technical wrestle so Mike just changes gears there. Danny counters the STH and goes after Mike's knee in return on the outside. Danny takes in back inside and just clamps on the full elevated crab with the head tramble, memories of his old dickish days. Mike wriggles out, only to end up in an Indian Deathlock and get whapped in the face. I like Danny actually trying to get pops, but having it called as breaking character because it is. Still working over Mike's legs and bring up some old history which is good to see as well. Danny pays for doing another Elbow Suicida this time as Mike escapes on the outside. MVS grabs the chair and goes straight for the injured arm then starts to work it over. This leaves Danny fighting without his elbows, and he switches to just taking MVS down when he stands, giving himself time to recover. But Mike recovers as well and end up dropkicking to the outside, his knee having had some time to recover as well. None of the early comedy jokes no, which are still working they way into Danny's match to try and add a little morem to them. Teasing Jujigatame counter, but Mike counters out of it. Usual Jujigatame escape, but there's no rope break, so Danny does a rope assaisted roll out, only for Mike to go straight to the Crossface. He tries to shift into the CSC to get the win but Danny revereses and get the win. Good little submissions match there. Not as epic as others, but good as Danny still works on other parts of his writing and tries to put Mike over as well.

 

Cruiserweight Title Match now. NTD joing Sly on his way down to ringside for this one. Starts off fast, with Dangerous out pacing Sly and just taking him down like the vet he is. But then Sly kicks into into gear, going after Johnny's ribs and mananaging to out pace him to take him down. Back up into a chop fest from both men. Sly's writing is definatly soild and getting better all the time. Just goes to show what he can pull off when he writes. Sly gets a chair but Johnny almost kills him with a kick. Johnny just kicks out of the low blow and heelsih roll up combo. Austin keeps on trucking, taking it to the champ and nailling him again and again as he keeps working over the ribs. Austin ends up nailling an SSP for a win and we have a new champion again on this show. Good work.

 

Promo time. Ahhh, feel Maddix's ego as he sits around watching tv before his match up. And the SWF contines to make a truck load form the Pepsi Max sponsership as well...and OMG it's Ben Hardy! Smell the ego from here, as Maddix continues to see his ego grow larger and larger all the time.

 

And now it's time for our on the fly ICTV Title Match. Maddix has himself quite a line up to deal with I must say. Many bad jokes around just because they have to be in there really. Nice to see there's no default face here. Gotta love the smart fans you can find in the world. Fast type up exchange to open up, then another one but Maddixes make a roll through with the leg for the first cover. Ace counters the Disciple Clash but gets rolled up again anyway. Maddix just goes on dominating Ace, taking him down and stretching him about at ever turn. Ace finally gets the advnatage by going after Maddix's bad knee and going after it again to get any offence in at all in this match and follows up with an Inverted Indian Deathlock to work over the leg. And now Ace lamps that bad leg around the ring post before getting rolled up as he trise for the figure four. But it doesn't slow Ace down as he goes straight back to the knee, wailing on it with almost every move he does. Maddix counters out of the STF and there's a double eye gouge. I dont think I've ever seen that one before but it's damn funny none the less. I like this way of handling a heel heel match, it actually seems much more fun. It's Magen that saves the day for Maddix again, giving him time to recover and nail the 605. Flying DDT, even with the back leg but still not enough. Another shocking small package but no good. Another roll up from Maddix this time, with the tights but still no good and it doesnt work for Ace as he tries the same thing. Hot shot but the Ace Crusher gets blocked but the counter still isnt enough. Superkick is ducked, STO and Ace has had enough, going straight for his finisher again but team Maddix makes the distraction, Superkicks nail, huge flase finish there. Card runs in again and throws in the belt but Ace makes with the powder and another near fall. Figure Four from Maddix, but his bad leg means he gets rolled over but he can just make the ropes to save himself. KICK! WHAM! HOLDS THE TOP ROPE! Jesus, Ace Crusher blocked gain but ANOTHER roll up doesnt finish it of either. Ace goes for another STO, but Megan grabs his leg and distracts him again. Crash Landon and it's FINALLY over, Maddix is the new ICTV Champ.

That was really good, started off sort of plain, but soon turned into something epic. With the way Landon is, ever new roll up looked like a possible finish and he overcomes his bad leg almost completely on his own. Very nice match up.

 

Winning promo of doom, just to show off that ego even more.

 

Main was short because exams make me tired. Still, the finish had a reason to be there, and a little SE stuff isnt so bad.

 

Well, when the show finally kicked off, it was pretty good all in all. Just keep with the effort ok people?

[Guest Suicide King]

I will reply more indepth later, but for now let me tell you all that thanks to your shameless plugging of Suicide King merchandise at the show, 6 more angels got their wings last night. Jesus and I thank you all.

[Golgo 13 0]

I don't have a good excuse for no-showing. Let's just say my recent sleeping patterns finally caught up with me yesterday, when I was too out of it to put in a real attempt at writing. Naturally, I could've won had I bothered to tack a sloppy and unreadable finish onto what I already had, but oh well.

 

Maybe I'll be productive and bust out some comments. We'll see.

[King Cucaracha 0]

I'll get some Dace-esque comments going tommorow. Busy watching the ENGERLAND~! Portugal game see. By tommorow though, we'll probably be out so I'll have time.

 

Right now, I'll just say that I'm glad my 'fans' enjoyed my match. Personally, I wasn't quite sure where to go to be honest. So I just threw together the heel/heel out-wrestling stuff and the heel/heel out-cheating stuff. Luckily it doesn't look too bad.

[The Ill One 0]

I no showed!

MAIN EVENT LANDON! is living up to his name! First the ICTV Title, and then the WORLD! Awesome match, man.

 

And Austin Sly wins the Cruiserweight Strap! Big markout there. I especially love seeing NTD again.

 

Great debut match by Max King...you can only get better from here.

 

I thought the main event was fun, even with the finish.

 

And hey, I won. Neat!
