*YAWN!*

 

Man, I'm still a little sleepy! I didn't get home until five in the morning! But, more on that later…

 

Dark Match:

 

- Jack the Ripper beat JT Playa with the Whitechappel Faceslam.

 

Grand Slam Tapings:

 

- Martin Hunt Beat Ryan Dustin in 2:45 with Sweet Southern Comfort.

 

- A highlights package from Storm was aired, focusing on the SWF Belt tournament. They talked about Johnny beating Landon Maddix to regain the ICTV Title, ending Landon's record-setting title reign.

 

- Ebony beat John Duran in 6:18 with a rollup. Duran dominated pretty much the entire match, and appeared to have it won, when Chance Silver ran down to ringside to distract Duran, enabling Ebony to sneak up behind him in the confusion. Duran looked like smoke was going to come out of his ears, but he could only watch as Silver ran through the crowd to get away.

 

- Déjà Vu beat Tokyo-X and Uncle Filthy in 4:24 with Double Jeopardy.

 

- Jamie Drazon beat Brian Levy in 3:51 with JD's Avenge.

 

- Another highlights package from last week's Storm was shown, this one featuring Toxxic's victory over Wildchild, and the subsequent beatdown of WC by Revolution Zero.

 

- Spike Jenkins beat Perfect Bo in 10:33 with the Silver Lining.

 

 

Lockdown:

 

- The only thing I find more unbelievable about there being a shooting at a wrestling event… in IDAHO … was that the SWF decided to edit the whole damned thing out of the show! Who are they kidding? The cops came and cleared out that whole side of the arena, and as soon as the Johnson/Ordonez match was over, they put the show on hold for almost two hours until they got everything back under control.

 

- Rule! Muh-fuckin' RULE! 'Nuff said!

 

- I almost feel bad for Jay Hawke… or, at least I would, if he wasn't such a condescending prick! Finally wins some gold in the JL, only to lose it in his first title defense; and now, that belt doesn't even exist any more, so that's one less title for him to try and win. Props to Johnny for winning the belt, whatever he decides to call it; I can't help but wonder, though, if Johnny's obsession with winning this gold has given him a little “tunnel vision,” but I'll touch on that in a second…

 

- I was in total shock by the way the Main Event went down; I mean, it was surprising enough in itself, just to see Wildchild working together with Todd Cortez, since I know WC has beef with the Urban Legend. But to see Toxxic forfeit a chance to win a match, just so Pretzler can finally get one up on Wildchild? That was a huge surprise.

 

Of course, the one question I was left asking, just like when I watched Storm on TV last week was: where was Johnny? Johnny and WC are supposed to be closer than brothers, so where was Johnny while WC was getting beat down two shows in a row?

Hey now, whoah whoah whoah there. You give Pretzler more heat than ME? That Number One Heat spot is MINE dammit, and if I don't get it back next show I'll write a cameo where you become Cortez' manservant!

 

Or a gun.
