BRANDON THOMASELLI and JOSH ABERCROMBIE went to a no contest when the IRON SAINTS ran out. Brandon got on the mic and said that since Josh pinned Sal last night and He pinned Vito, they already have 2 up on the IRON SAINTS. He challenged them to a tag match and they accepted. VITO and SAL THOMASELLI (THE IRON SAINTS) def. BRANDON THOMASELLI and JOSH ABERCROMBIE with the "Victim of Circumstance" (Swinging Pendulum of Pain followed by a Double Foot Stomp) on ABERCROMBIE after they knocked Brandon to the floor.

Commentary for most of the night was done by Jim Fannin, Chandler McClure then Bryce Remsburg and Mickie Knuckles Apparantly, B-Boy's flight from Philly was cancelled which is why he missed the show, while Kingston wasn't on the show due to a family emergency.

Guest DeputyHawk Report post Posted February 28, 2005 I've yet to see Brandon Thomaselli on tape. Is he worthy of the massive push he's currently getting? Seems he's been in every single main event recently. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
King Cucaracha 0 Report post Posted February 28, 2005 I've yet to see Brandon Thomaselli on tape. Is he worthy of the massive push he's currently getting? Seems he's been in every single main event recently. I'm undecided ATM. His 2/3 Falls Match with Jimmy Jacobs at Rumble In Rensselaer was stellar stuff, but the only other time I've seen him was at Anything Goes 2K5 with Josh Abercrombie, which was a pretty sloppy and forgettable match. If you go by the Jacobs match though, certainly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
