1234-5678 0 Report post Posted October 4, 2004 In late breaking news, Ruckus has been fired by 3PW. Ruckus was just scheduled to wrestle 2 Cold Scorpio on 10/16 at the ECW arena. According to the 3PW Management, Ruckus told 3PW he would not be appearing at 3PW's 10/16 show, as he recieved a booking for a promotion in Japan. 3PW management said that Ruckus would not be brought back after this incident. As a result of all this, 2 Cold Scorpio has been inserted in the AJ Styles vs Chris Sabin match. 3PW will now put on AJ Styles vs Chris Sabin vs 2 Cold Scorpio, with the winner of the match becoming the number 1 contender for the 3PW Heavyweight title, which is currently held by Christopher Daniels.

1234-5678 0 Report post Posted October 4, 2004 Yeah too bad, cause I enjoyed Ruckus and one of my friends who I drag to the shows was really a mark for him. Still, it'll be cool to see Scorpio again. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Dynamite Kido Report post Posted October 5, 2004 Kido, you think Scorp can keep up with Styles and Sabin? I would say that he could. Scorpio has been working in Japan for Pro Wrestling NOAH for the last couple of years. From everything that I see of him from this period, I don't see why he couldn't keep up. Scorpio is probably in better shape now that any period where he worked in America. At least from the last time I saw him(7/10/04 Tokyo Dome show)........ By the way Happy B-day Jaxl.......

Zack Malibu 0 Report post Posted October 7, 2004 That sounds like a hell of a match, actually. I wonder if the Ruckus deal could be an angle. He's been a face in 3PW, right? I know he's heel in CZW, so maybe this is a way to forge some continuity? And shit, I didn't realize I missed your birthday, bro. Belated salutations on my part.

Guest jobsquad Report post Posted October 7, 2004 well i doubt it is an angle as 3pw has never shown a tendency to try internet angles in the past. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

1234-5678 0 Report post Posted October 18, 2004 A LOOK AT 3PW'S LATEST SHOW, INCLUDING STYLES VS. SCORPIO VS. SABIN by Buck Woodward @ 1:00:00 AM on 10/18/2004 I had the opportunity to check out the latest 3PW effort at the ECW Arena in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania this past Saturday, and was once again treated to a nice variety of styles, put together in a tight, well organized show. The group has a few different storylines running now, as well as having established regular characters, so the matches have more meaning to them, rather than "worker A vs. worker B". One of the greatest strengths of the company, easily, is in the order and pacing of the show, which allows the main matches to have maximum impact, while not letting one bout overshadow another. Here's a rundown on the show, and my thoughts on it. - The Blue Meanie defeated The Rockin' Rebel after hitting Goldust's old "Shatter Dreams" kick to the groin. Nice, short opener with a few comedy spots. This was the beginning of a storyline that would continue later in the evening, as Rebel wondered out loud where his regular tag partner, Jack Victory (who was scheduled, but didn't make the show) was. - The "Sugar Shack" segment was next, with "Sugar Daddy" Tod Gordon. It started with Talia bringing out Tod Gordon and more or less explaining the current storyline (Talia and Gordon, the commissioner of 3PW, are once again aligned, and Jasmin St. Claire is their rival). Gordon announced that Talia would be the special referee for the Tag Team Title match between the champions (and Gordon's hired hands) Slyk Wagner Brown & April Hunter and Jasmin's team of the Pitbulls 2004 (Gary Wolfe & Mike Kruel). Jasmin came to the ring and tried to coerce her way back into Gordon's good graces, but ended up having her skirt yanked down and was tripped in the ring. - As Jasmin ran off, Gordon introduced his "scheduled guest" for the night, 2 Cold Scorpio. Gordon welcomed Scorpio to 3PW, and Scorpio put over that he was planning on winning his scheduled three way match that night and moving on to face the 3PW Champion down the line. They were interrupted by Slyck Wagner Brown & April Hunter (who Gordon had helped win the tag titles at the last show). Hunter wondered why beautiful women like Talia and Jasmin were always throwing themselves at Gordon, and deduced that it must be because of all the power he has in 3PW. April started to come on to Gordon herself, which did not seem to please Slyck. When Brown got on the mic, he got in Scorpio's face, using the classic "You're an old man, step aside for the new generation" angle. Scorpio ended up knocking Slyck out of the ring with a superkick, to the delight of the crowd. The segment seemed to serve a dual purpose of establishing that April is interested in Gordon's power, while at the same time separating Brown from Gordon. - CJ O'Doyle defeated Monsta Mack. O'Doyle is definitely the "homegrown babyface" of 3PW, and surprisingly, he is getting a strong face reaction from the crowd (I say surprisingly, because sometimes it is easier to get cheered in Philly by being a heel). The story of the match was simple, with the larger Monsta Mack tossing around O'Doyle (including a cool spot where he picked up O'Doyle on the floor for a powerbomb, but instead flung him backwards into one of the support beams in the Arena) before CJ scored the upset win. They've been slowly building O'Doyle, and have are doing a good job moving him up the ladder gradually. - Rob Eckos stormed the ring after the last match, and proclaimed that he was going to be taken seriously from now on (he joined with tag partner Matt Striker for a comedy gimmick on the last show). To prove his point, he quickly beat O'Doyle in an impromptu "match" that didn't hurt O'Doyle (since he just wrestled and was not expecting to be attacked), and established that Eckos was now a serious heel ... for now. - AJ Styles won a three way dance over 2 Cold Scorpio and Chris Sabin to become the number one contender to the 3PW Title. The match of the night, it saw all three men go from working a fast paced, high-flying junior heavyweight style, to a stiffer, clothesline and suplex-laden bout, then back to the air again. Sabin was eliminated at the 18-minute mark when Styles hit a frog splash, followed immediately by Scorpio landing a moonsault for the pin. Styles and Scorpio then continued on for another 12 minutes before Styles scored the win with a Styles Clash, to a big pop. Scorpio gave credit to Styles following the match, and both men got a standing ovation. Wisely, they went to intermission at this point, because it would have been hard to top this match. All three men put on a great match, and worked really well together. I have been soured on the "three way" (and four way, five way, etc.) concept lately, but this was a good example of how a three way match can still be exciting. - Following the break, they did a quick comedy bit where Rockin' Rebel didn't know where Jack Victory was, only for Victory to "call" referee John Finnegan on his cellphone to let Rebel know that he was at Cheerleaders (a strip club a few blocks from the arena). A few innuendos and one liners later, Rebel found himself facing Victory's opponent, Roadkill. A very short match (less than two minutes) followed, with Blue Meanie running in and, once again, catching Rebel with the Shattered Dreams kick to the groin to set up Roadkill winning. - The Pitbulls 2004 (Gary Wolfe & Mike Kruel) defeated Slyck Wagner Brown & April Hunter to win the 3PW Tag Team Titles. This match just didn't seem to click, other than the first few minutes of exchanging holds, which was good. Early in the match, they went to the floor, and the crowd was getting into it when Wolfe threw a chair into Hunter's face, and beat Brown repeatedly across the back with another chair. Then they went back to the ring, and started doing armbars, which seemed to sour the crowd to them fast. When the violence is escalated like that, fans are expecting a finish, and they didn't get it. There was definitely some miscommunication on a few spots as well, which didn't help matters. All four have had better matches, to be sure. The finish saw Jasmin knock out Talia (the referee) so Tod Gordon ran in, and ended up counting the pin for the Pitbulls. If nothing else, it did cement that Brown & Hunter were no longer Gordon's favorites anymore. The storyline they are working on establishing is that Talia is with Gordon, but both Jasmin and April are coming on to him because they want his power in 3PW. - One of the trademarks of 3PW was next, as the lights went out, and when they came back on "Strikbu" was in the ring. Matt Striker, who does a gimmick where he imitates other wrestlers, was standing in the ring, pointing to the ceiling, doing his best Sabu impersonation. For his match with Damian Adams, Striker attempted to do many of the Sabu trademarks, but would fail in comedic fashion (since Striker isn't really an aerial artist). He would set up for a Triple Jump Moonsault, then stop to move the launch chair closer to the ring ropes, before inevitably slipping on the ropes anyway. He also incorporated bits of Hakushi, Goldberg (with bald wig), Chief Jay Strongbow, Bruiser Brody, and the Iron Sheik into the match. When he was starting to lose, Rob Eckos ran out, dressed like Bill Alfonso, and blowing a whistle (right into the microphone, amplifying it to ear piercing levels). I guess he isn't done being a comedy act after all. In the end, Striker set up a table (which fell apart, so Strike simply told the crowd "sometimes things don't go as planned") and went for an Atomic Arabian Facebuster on the table, but missed, and Adams got the pin. For the life of me, I can't understand why WWE has never had someone do a gimmick like this. They've sort of teased it with Eugene, but Striker has proven how great it can be (provided the person doing it is talented, which he is). - "Fallen Angel" Christopher Daniels defeated Joey Matthews to retain the 3PW Heavyweight Title. During the early part of the match, AJ Styles came down to ringside and sat down to watch the match. Both Daniels and Matthews, at different points, had words with Styles on the floor. They've done a really great job building their main event program around Styles, Matthews and Daniels, and making you believe that any one of them could win the title on a given night. The finish saw Daniels hit an STO on Matthews, followed by three consecutive "Best Moonsaults Ever" for the pin after a strong 20 minute match. Obviously, the implication afterward was that it would be Styles challenging Daniels for the belt next. Link Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LoRisk 0 Report post Posted October 19, 2004 A tip to all those who attend a 3PW show (or ANY show, for that matter) in the near future, and a match goes into the crowd: Do not, repeat, DO NOT...shove a security guard out of the way to get closer to the action or attempt to shoulder your way through the "wall" security is forming. WE ARE TRYING TO PROTECT YOU. So yeah, if you don't listen to any of those warnings, don't complain about receiving a light forearm to your side. You're lucky it's only *light*.

LoRisk 0 Report post Posted October 20, 2004 Nah, if it was I would've let them jump into the ring at the end of the night just to see them get taken down. Green Lantern Fan was one of the guys trying to shoulder past the wall. I don't have a problem with him like some other people do, but I was seriously thinking of letting him through and allowing him to eat either Styles' or Scorpio's boot.
