Life on the Ladder
26/3/2005
Skybox Arena, Minnesota
Attendance: 2057
Home Release Version
Commentator: Don Callis & Eric Garguilo
PRESHOW
A taxi pulls up outside the arena and it’s AJ Styles who gets out of it without partner Chris Ca$h. It’s still early outside and no fans are there as AJ just walks straight into the arena.
Alex Lovell and Ray Stevens are talking backstage in there lockeroom:
Alex Lovell – “Ray tonight’s the big night, we must win tonight if we are going to keep our jobs here, there is no way I can work at the garage full time.”
Ray Stevens – “No way is it going to happen, that stuff we did….”
Alex Lovell – “I thought we weren’t going to talk about the trip to Jamaica.”
Ray Stevens – “When we went into the…”
John ‘OK’ Earl Roberts bursts into the room and greets Wasted Talent
John ‘OK’ Earl Roberts – “Tonight’s, the night boys, the day you secure your place on the SWEW roster by beating the SAT and winning your first ever match. You still remember all your new techniques you were taught?”
Alex Lovell – “Look we were half way across the world; we agreed to leave that stuff over there.”
Ray Stevens – “I don’t know I was kind of digging it when that big guy….”
John ‘OK’ Earl Roberts – “Just make sure you get the win tonight, leaving me three on one with the rest of those rats, H-Factor would make it had for the people of the West Indies to get behind us as a viable threat, so you better win and you will win with your new special moves.”
Alex Lovell – “Shut up about it.”
Earl Roberts and Stevens look at each other as whatever went on; at there training camp obviously irritated Alex Lovell.
The Crew are backstage Trent Acid, Ricky Reyes and Rocky Romero are standing behind Samoa Joe as Joe looks firmly in charge, Trent Acid has a big bandage over his shoulder after what Majestic did to him at ‘Rated 18’. Joe looks around then starts to talk.
Samoa Joe – “Majestic, Alex Shelley, tonight the Crew are going to destroy you and retain there place at the top of SWEW. Why are you been so calm Joe you might say? I’m been calm because I know that the Havana Pitbulls are going to be recapture the SWEW Tag Team Championship in the ladder match and me and my boy Acid ARE GOING TO DESTROY YOUR TWO MASKED FREAKS in the tag match. Shelley I hate you, you go round ruining the show for everyone. Maybe we will ruin the show for you tonight? You walk around the back like a punk bad mouthing us, you attack us after matches, and you attack us in the back, YOU LEFT ME IN HOSTPITAL FOR 6 DAYS nearly killing me inside the cage, I blame you Shelley for costing me my SWEW Heavyweight Championship. Not anymore Shelley, not again, the Crew will tonight rise to the top of SWEW again and Alex Shelley we have a target on you and we will get our revenge tonight.”
SHOW
Jimmy Jacobs d. Gregg Bradley
The show kicked off in front of a crowd just over 2000 as former SWEW Heavyweight Champion Jimmy Jacobs made his return to SWEW as he faced Gregg Bradley the newest graduate of the SWEW Academy. Bradley’s size and power was very impressive as the 6’4ft monster threw Jacobs all over the ring in this match and nearly picked up the win after a big side slam but Jacobs got his leg on the rope. Unfortunately for Bradley he started to get tired around the five minute mark and the much more experienced Jimmy Jacobs has bags of stamina as the HUSS man picked up his game, by hitting a big dropkick on Bradley then he hit the Suicide Solution on Bradley and covered for the 3.
Result - Jimmy Jacobs wins
(7:03) *3/4
As Gregg Bradley makes his way to the back with a deranged look on his face Jimmy Jacobs is celebrating his win as the crowd are shouting HUSS in support of Jacobs until ‘Intergalactic Overdrive by the Melvin’s’ starts and our SWEW Heavyweight Champion Austin Aries with his girl Becky Bayless comes to the ring. Jacobs looks really annoyed with Becky as Austin picks up a mic and gets into the ring.
Austin Aries – “Hi Jimmy, how are you doing? I was just watching you beat that big chump in the back when it occurred to me that I have two things that used to belong to you. I have the SWEW Heavyweight Championship and I have your girlfriend Jimmy. Seeing as I only have to face Jimmy Rave tonight, I’m feeling generous so I’m going to give you a choice. You for one night have a chance to take one of these things back. You can ‘a’ take Becky up to your hotel room and do anything and I mean anything to her to try and get her back. Or ‘b’ right now you can take me on for the SWEW Heavyweight Championship. What’s it going to be Jimmy?”
Jacobs looks at the crowd to help him give him an answer, some are chanting ‘Becky’ some are chanting ‘title’. Jacobs grabs the mic from Aries and it looks like he is going to talk until he smashed the microphone into Aries face as it looks like he has chosen a match.
SWEW Heavyweight Championship
Austin Aries© (w/Becky Bayless) d. Jimmy Jacobs
Unbelievably this was the 10th SWEW Heavyweight Championship match Jimmy Jacobs has been in since SWEW started up as he looked to regain his championship in Austin Aries first defence in this impromptu match. Jacobs had defeated Aries once before as champion but he was not able to do it again, as Austin made his first successful title defence. Jacobs who had started off fast got several close two counts in the early going and was sure he had picked up the win when he hit the Suicide Solution on Aries but he was able to get his foot on the rope.
Jacobs who had now been wrestling for almost 20 minutes started to tire but he still had reason to complain at the finish. As Jacobs has just hit a big chop to Aries, he set up for the Yakuza Kick but Becky Bayless came up onto the ring apron and distracted Jacobs. The duo pulled on each other long enough for Aries to get up and drive him to the mat from behind with a german suplex. Aries climbed up to the top and hit the 450 and covered for the elementary three count and the first defence of his title. Becky and Austin celebrated in the ring, while Jacobs was lying on the floor. Becky went over to Jacobs and looked to be concerned for him and helped him to his feet only to slap him in his face and push him down. Aries left with his arm over Becky’s shoulder to a lot of boos as they have just embarrassed fan favourite Jimmy Jacobs.
Result - Austin Aries wins
(12:51) ***1/2
Fly or Die Match
Wasted Talent d. The SAT
The SAT came out to a nice pop while Lovell and Stevens also go a face pop for some reason as they seem to be getting over with the crowd now. Both teams knew they had to win to keep there place on the SWEW roster and it showed. Jose hit a Maximo Exploder on Lovell and got a two, while the Pendulum on Stevens nearly knocked him out but Lovell was able to stop either member of the SAT to get a pin. This match was going to go to whoever wanted it the most and it was Wasted Talent who showed they wanted it the most as they picked up there first ever victory in this must win match. As Stevens came over the top rope onto Jose with a corkscrew plancha, Alex Lovell trapped Joel on the mat then locked in the Border City Stretch, while Joel could not get out of and Joel tapped out. Lovell and Stevens celebrated widely in the ring as Jose and Joel got a round of applause for there fans for there effort in SWEW but they are never coming back. Wasted Talent will now look to build on this win and climb the rankings in SWEW.
Result - Wasted Talent win
(12:44) **3/4
We quickly go backstage and we see Gregg Bradley throwing chairs and other equipment round on the floor. Some members of the SWEW Academy and other ring officials quickly bundle him out of the building, as Bradley’s infamous temper has gotten the better of him again, as he lost in tonight’s opening match against Jimmy Jacobs.
Matt Sydal (w/Daizee Haze) d. Alex Shelley
It was now time for Matt Sydal to attempt to get his revenge over Alex Shelley for attacking him after his match with Joey Matthews at ‘Rated 18’. Sydal looked more focused then normal as he waited in the ring with Daizee for Shelley to come down. Majestics music of a remix of Audioslaves ‘Like A Stone’ hits and Shelley comes to the ring on his own. Alex Shelley has promised to ruin the show tonight for someone as Samoa Joes choke hold has now been deemed legal but he would have his hands full with Sydal from now.
The duo produced 18 minutes of great wrestling which went back and forth all the way through. Shelley looked to keep the more aerial aware Sydal on the mat in the earlier going with some unique holds on the mat but Sydal kept popping out and knocking Shelley down with a kick or strike and getting several close falls. Shelley managed to get the advantage when Sydal made a big mistake as Shelley was on the floor resting on a guard railing; Sydal leaped from the top rope but got nothing and smashed into the guard railing hitting his ribs. Shelley took Sydal into the ring and started to work over him.
Shelley worked Sydals ribs for the next five minutes and locked in a unique version of the abdominal stretch on the mat and as Sydal screamed in pain, Daizee encouraged the fans to support Matt and they got behind him which gave Sydal enough energy to break the hold after several minutes of pain by flipping Shelley out of the ring. The finish came just as Alex Shelley had missed an elbow off the top. Both men were slowly up and started to trade chops until Shelley kicked him in his injured ribs. Shelley shouted for the Shellshock but Sydal blocked it and rolled him up in a inside cradle for 2 as Shelley reversed for another 2 and then for one final time Sydal reversed again and the ref counted to 3 as Matt Sydal had pinned Alex Shelley.
Result - Matt Sydal wins
(18:36) ***1/2
Daizee rushes into the ring to congratulate Sydal who is every hurt from Alex Shelley’s constant attacks on his ribs. Alex Shelley looks at Daizee and Sydal in disbelieve of just losing that match and he grabs the microphone off the ring announcer and attempts to starts talking:
Alex Shelley – “…….”.
As Shelley tries to talk the crowd start chanting ‘you just lost’ over and over again to Shelley who looks very pissed now as he finally starts talking:
Alex Shelley – “At least I’m a winner most of the time not like all you losers in Minnesota. Matt Sydal you just cheated then to pin me, you had my tights in your hands and it wasn’t a clean pinfall. Despite that it was still pretty impressive, you can now tell you grandchildren that I once defeated Alex Shelley, and I’m a fucking god. So Matt Sydal the point of this is I’m offering you a once in a life time opportunity. The Crew have four men, I only have two I need one more man to finally rid SWEW of them and Matt Sydal you could be that man. This is your one chance to join my Majestic, you could rise to main event status in one moment and your dream of becoming a headline act would be instantly granted and all you need to do is shake my hand and that dream could become a reality.”
Shelley extends his hand to Sydal and Sydal walks towards Shelley and slaps him in the face which the fans pop big for. Shelley has a smile on his face as Sydal takes the mic from him.
Matt Sydal – “I don’t need anyone’s help to get to the top of this business, especially yours Shelley.”
Sydal give the mic back to Shelley then leaves the ring with Daizee to a few claps and walks to the back. Alex Shelley starts talking once again.
Alex Shelley – “Your going to regret that Sydal, just like the SWEW officials are going to regret keeping Samoa Joes choke a legal move. This is a warning from me and the rest of Majestic to all the boys in the back. Be on your toes tonight as it’s going to be someone’s lucky night, as we will ruin the show for you.”
Shelley throws the mic down and leaves the rings to boos as despite his loss to Sydal he has shown his bouncebackablity and laid down the gauntlet to the rest of SWEW while Sydal now turning down a place in Majestic has a firm target on his back but has shot up the rankings after his huge win in SWEW and will look to get into the bigger matches in upcoming weeks.
Bobby Quance comes down and waits in the ring for John ‘OK’ Earl Roberts come down. As Earl Roberts comes down once again he grabs a mic and starts to talk after been told to ‘shut the fuck up’ by the crowd:
John ‘OK’ Earl Roberts – “Earlier tonight you all saw Mr Alex Lovell and Mr Ray Stevens secure there place on the SWEW roster. Now they have dedicated themselves 100% behind my war with the H-Factor and on April 16th in Nebraska they will take on you Mr Quance and Teddy Hart in a tag team match while I will take on Jack Evans. So after I beat you tonight Bobby, tell Jack I’m going to dismantle him into so many pieces that the finest construction men from Trinidad couldn’t put him back together….”
John ‘OK’ Earl Roberts d. Bobby Quance
Quance had heard enough and dived threw the ropes with a tope driving Roberts into the guard railing. Unfortunately for Quance this would prove to be the highlight of the match for him as just like at ‘312 Hours Later’ from early February, John ‘OK’ Earl Roberts would come away with the win. The extra training from Lovell, Stevens and Roberts in Jamaica seemed to have worked wonders as Roberts just took Quance apart for the whole match then delivered the Jamaican Driver on Quance and held on for the three count. With Wasted Talent and Earl Roberts on a roll right now H-Factor will have to make sure they are not steamrolled out of SWEW in Nebraska
Result - John 'OK' Earl Roberts wins
(10:07) **3/4
Majestic d. The Crew of Samoa Joe & Trent Acid
The Majestic and the Crew feud continued in Minnesota as Super Dragon and Delirious looked to score a big victory over Samoa Joe and Trent Acid both of whom suffering from attacks from Majestic at recent events. The match was a stiff, stiff affair. Alex Shelley and the Havana Pitbulls had been banned from ringside by Don Callis hoping the match could be kept clean and surprisingly it was. In the early going Trent and Joe looked good keeping Delirious away from the much stronger Super Dragon. Unfortunately for them they weren’t able to keep Super Dragon out of the match as he managed to get tagged in and it was Acids turn to be separated from his partner.
The face/heel dynamic came into play as Dragon beat Acid black and blue in the ring with a series of stiff chops and kicks while Delirious came in for a few quick dropkicks before tagging out again. This happened for several minutes as the crowd really got behind Acid and came alive when Acid killed out of a curb stomp on the bottom turnbuckle. Out of nowhere as Delirious was now in the ring, Delirious missed a charge and using his last bit of strength turned him inside out with a Yakuza Kick. Trent Acid accidentally hit Joe with a Yakuza Kick laying him out. Both men crawled to there corners and tagged in there partners. Joe cleaned house and after taking advantage of Super Dragon locked in the choke to a big pop but Delirious blocked Joe from taking it to the mat.
The finish came as Delirious had been dumped out of the ring leaving Trent Acid and Super Dragon as the legal men with Joe also in the ring. The Crew sensed victory and Acid hit the ropes and launched a Yakuza Kick but Super Dragon ducked and Joe was caught right on his jaw knocking him out of the ring. Trent Acid turned round right into Super Dragon. A stiff kick to Acids head knocked Trent down and Dragon picked Acid up and delivered the Psycho Driver and covered for the academic pin. Super Dragon looked at the damage he caused to Trent Acid once again then climbed out of the ring picked up Delirious and left. When Samoa Joe got back into the ring he berated Acid for hitting him (albeit accidentally as Acid was trying to explain but Joe wouldn’t listen) and the duo got into a shoving match before Acid left.
Result - Majestic win
**** (17:06)
We go backstage and hear wild screams coming from Wasted Talents dressing room
Alex Lovell – “Yeahhhhhhh.”
Ray Stevens – “Whooooooooo.”
Alex Lovell – “Yeahhhhhh.”
John ‘OK’ Earl Roberts – “I told you boys stick with me and you would win, I’m proud of both of you tonight.”
Alex Lovell – “Thanks man ,I’m sorry we ever doubted you, getting that win tonight and after all that extra training you helped us with, we’re just so happy right now.”
Ray Stevens – “He’s right man, we’re 100% behind you now, and we will help you get H-Factor out of SWEW for all the people of the Caribbean.”
Alex Lovell – “Starting with Teddy Hart and Bobby Quance in the tag match in Nebraska.”
John ‘OK’ Earl Roberts – “WOW, I’m so impressed with you two right now, lets go and hit a club and we will celebrate West Indies style.”
Alex Lovell – “Let’s go.”
Lovell, Stevens and Earl Roberts leave the room delighted with there clean sweep of victories tonight as we go back to ringside.
SWEW Heavyweight Championship
Austin Aries© (w/Becky Bayless) d. Jimmy Rave
Despite the SWEW Heavyweight Championship changing hands numerous times already this year, the fans didn’t really believe that Jimmy Rave, like Jimmy Jacobs could get the job done tonight despite his recent winning streak. He did however get a nice pop when he came to the ring and played the underdog well against Aries who was getting lots of boos as he and Becky came to the ring. There was only one real scare for Austin in the whole match when Rave countered a powerbomb attempt into the crossface but Aries managed to escape to the ropes to break off the hold. It was another crossface attempt from Rave that saw the finish of the match as when Rave went for the tilt-a-whirl crossface Aries managed to land Rave on his feet then kick him downstairs. Rave screamed in agony as Aries hit a brainbuster on Rave then climbed to the top rope and like against Jimmy Jacobs earlier hit the 450 splash and covered for the 3 to make his second successful title defence tonight.
Result - Austin Aries wins
(13:42) ***1/4
Jimmy Rave left the ring while Becky Bayless handed Aries the SWEW Heavyweight Championship belt and a mic:
Austin Aries – “See I told you all that Austin Aries will be the most dominant champion of all time, I just made two defence of this title in one night, there is nobody in the lockeroom who can take this title away from me.”
Quality Control by Jurassic 5 hits and it is Spanky who has come down to interrupt Aries. He slaps the fans hands on the way down and then gets a mic from the ring announcer.
Spanky – “Austin, you’re such a jackass. I challenge you to a match for the SWEW Heavyweight Championship on April 16th in Nebraska.”
Austin Aries – “Whoa, whoa, whoa, you can’t just come up to me little man and demand a title shot you have to earn it. You have to win a SWEW Triple Chance to get a title shot unless I want to face you for it and frankly I don’t think you deserve a shot at the title.”
Spanky – “That’s bullshit and you know it, I beat you clean a couple of shows ago then you attack me after the match take my place in matches then on a lucky night with an injured Samoa Joe you won the title. You’re nothing but a little whiny bitch.”
Aries and Spanky come face to face only to be pulled apart by Don Callis who had made his way to ringside. He takes a mic and starts talking
Don Callis – “Austin is right Spanky you have not yet earned a shot at the SWEW Heavyweight Championship like he did. However for our debut Nebraska show at the Reading National Guard Armoury on April 16th you will have a chance to earn a shot as, as well as other matches such as Wasted Talent taking on H-Factor members Bobby Quance and Teddy Hart, John ‘OK’ Earl Roberts versus Jack Evans, in a SWEW Triple Chance match you Spanky will take on Matt Sydal who impressed everyone in the back tonight and Samoa Joe who is looking to get his title back.”
Spanky seems happy with that, as Austin Aries started to leave the ring.
Don Callis – “I’m not finished yet, and what I’m about to say concerns you Austin so get back in here. I just received an interesting phone call from CM Punk, you said he is coming back to SWEW on April 16th in Nebraska, and Austin he has finally traded in his SWEW Triple Chance. So in the main event at ‘The Pepsi Challenge’ it will be you Austin Aries defending the SWEW Heavyweight Championship against CM PUNK.”
Austin Aries – “This is bullshit Callis, bullshit.”
Aries throws down the mic in frustration and leaves the ring in a hurry with Becky.
Don Callis – “And with that, we at SWEW would like to thank you for making tonight special and we hope you enjoy our main event as Styles Ca$h will be defending the SWEW Tag Team Championship in a ladder match.”
Spanky and Callis shake hands as Callis leaves the ring. Ref Paul Turner runs to the ring and with the help of the ring crew and a ladder attaches the SWEW Tag Team Championship which Styles Ca$h had given them earlier in the night above the ring to the ceiling on a rope hanging down at 18ft in the air while Spanky waits in the ring for the match to start as he teams with Low-Ki.
We see the Havana Pitbulls leave the Crew lockeroom and we look inside and we see Trent Acid and Samoa Joe still arguing before Samoa Joe slams the door shut so no camera can capture what they are saying clearly. We do however hear Joe shout FUCK a lot in this time.
SWEW Tag Team Championship
Ladder Match
Styles Ca$h© vs. H-Factor of Jack Evans & Teddy Hart vs. Low-Ki & Spanky vs. The Havana Pitbulls
Low-Ki came out to a huge ovation and waited with his partner Spanky in the ring. Next out were the Pitbulls to boos, then H-Factor members Jack Evans and Teddy Hart to a nice reception then it was the champions out next. All four teams looked up at the belts some 18ft up in the air. There were 5 ladders on the floor at ringside of all sizes. The four teams now looking at each other pace around the ring when suddenly Ricky Reyes and Rocky Romero attack Low-Ki and the match starts.
Rocky Romero hit Low-Ki with a stump piledriver while Styles Ca$h and H-Factor went to get some ladders. Spanky attacked both Pitbulls and both were easily dumped out of the ring as Styles Ca$h ran with a ladder together taking out both Pitbulls and Low-Ki to the mat. Teddy Hart set up a ladder and Jack Evans tried to climb and get the belts but was followed by Spanky who climbed the other side. Evans chopped Spanky until he fell off then dived off the top of the ladder onto both Havana Pitbulls taking both of them out. Rocky Romero hit a flurry of punches on Ca$h before dumping him to the outside with a stiff lariat. Low-Ki came behind on Romero and threw him backwards with a release Dragon Suplex and Romero landed on the back of his head. Teddy Hart picked up the ladder AJ and Ca$h had brought in after he hit a side-Russian leg sweep on AJ and climbed the ladder and reached for the belts but was unable to get them as Ricky Reyes climbed up the ladder and threw Teddy Hart off the ladder which then rocked and he fell off himself crashing to the floor.
Spanky nailed Romero with a flying bulldog off the top rope then set up for the Sliced Bread Number 2 onto a ladder. Chris Ca$h ducked a standing clothesline from Teddy Hart, and AJ Styles stopped Hart and hit the Styles Clash to Teddy Hart. On the outside of the ring Ricky Reyes set up a table and attempted to suplex Low-Ki through it but was unable as from behind Jack Evans stopped Reyes with a steel chair shot. As Evans was wondering what to do next from out of nowhere Chris Ca$h spring boarded off a fallen ladder over the top rope and smashed head first into Evans steel chair which smashed Evans in the face and they were both dead on the floor. Romero was taken over with a suplex from Styles as behind him Spanky set up a new ladder in the ring the biggest one of them all. Spanky started to climb the 20ft ladder slowly and AJ followed him up, they were both trading shots at the top of the ladder both trying to grab the belts when suddenly Teddy Hart pushed the ladder over and AJ managed to jump into the ring but not Spanky who fell over 20ft crashing through the table Reyes had set up on the outside of the ring. The crowd shouted holy shit as officials rushed down to check on Spanky.
Position Update: AJ Styles in the ring on the floor after falling from the top of the 20ft ladder, Chris Ca$h on the floor on the outside with Jack Evans both on a heap on the floor after a nasty collision involving a steel chair. Rocky Romero was just getting up on the inside of the ring batter ling with Teddy Hart while Ricky Reyes and Low-Ki were trading shots on the outside and Spanky of course just over 20ft through a table.
Rocky Romero hit an exploder suplex on Teddy Hart and then picked up a ladder and drove it into Teddy a few times then set it up and started to climb. Low-Ki managed to get advantage over Reyes on the outside after he drove him headfirst into the guard railing and came back into the ring as AJ Styles joined Romero in climbing the ladder. AJ hammered Romero a few times with some stiff forearms and hooked Romero in position for the Styles Clash off the top of the ladder. Romero fought it as Low-Ki climbed up the outside. Low-Ki locked in the Dragon Clutch on AJ Styles as Romero was still in position for the Styles Clash; AJ fought Low-Ki off and hit the Styles Clash off the ladder onto Rocky Romero. The crowd went crazy as the ladder shook and then fell over sending Low-Ki crashing to the mat.
Rocky Romero was out from the Styles Clash off the ladder, so AJ Styles picked up a ladder and slowly climbed up the ladder
He climbed to the top of the ladder
He reached for the belt
But Teddy Hart just grabbed AJ’s legs and threw him off the ladder. Teddy Hart started to climb the ladder.
He reached the top of the ladder
Got his hands on the belt but out of nowhere Chris Ca$h pushed the ladder over and Teddy Hart fell to the outside of the ring threw the timekeepers table. Jack Evans was up and he climbed to the top rope and tried a big dive on Low-Ki and Rocky Romero but the duo caught him only for all three men to tumble threw the ropes. Ricky Reyes tried to get into the ring but Chris Ca$h hammered him with a steel chair while Reyes was on the apron busting him open leaving only the champions in the ring together. They stood a ladder up and AJ Styles and Chris Ca$h started to climb
Both men reached the top of the ladder
They both reached for the belts
Low-Ki and Rocky Romero franticly tried to get back into the ring
They were to late however as AJ Styles and Chris Ca$h grabbed the two belts and fell to the mat as Styles Ca$h retained the titles.
AJ Styles and Chris Ca$h got up and hugged each while Low-Ki and Rocky Romero collapsed to the mat inside the ring. Suddenly out of nowhere through the crowd came Alex Shelley, Delirious and Super Dragon. Majestic had come out to ruin the show again. They ran to the ring and jumped AJ Styles and Chris Ca$h hammering them down to the mat. Alex Shelley picked up a steel chair from the mat and started hammering everyone in sight, Low-Ki went down, Rocky Romero went, Chris Ca$h went down. Super Dragon then picked up AJ Styles and lent him against the ladder. Delirious by now had picked up a steel chair.
AJ was about to be decimated as Shelley and Delirious swung back only for Samoa Joe and Trent Acid who had sprinted down the aisle to take the steel chairs from there hands. They both swung, and Delirious ducked and got out of the way but there was no luck for Alex Shelley as Trent Acid had walloped him over the head and busted him open. Super Dragon dragged Shelley out of the ring and Majestic fled back through the crowd as fast as they had come. They still made an impact but not as much as they could of as Crew members Trent Acid and Samoa Joe had saved AJ Styles from further punishment after he and Chris Ca$h has retained the SWEW Tag Team Championship in a epic ladder match which saw several people left unconscious after bad falls. The show come to an end with Trent Acid and Samoa Joe helping Rocky Romero up in the middle of the ring as the Crew finally get a little advantage over Majestic.
Result - Styles Ca$h win
(23:17) ***1/2
POSTSHOW
Austin Aries is backstage with Becky and cuts a promo on CM Punk.
Austin Aries – “CM Punk, it seems that you have finally cashed in your SWEW Triple Chance in you will face me on April 16th in Nebraska at ‘The Pepsi Challenge’. I got to say I’m disappointed in you Punk. I brought you back to SWEW as my dream partner and we won the match fair we were having a good time then you get all pissy about who got the cover and then claim because you are straight edge your better than me? Lets get this straight, no one is better than me, no one is going to beat me, no one is going to take this title away from me and that includes you CM Punk, it includes you Spanky and it includes any of the boys in the back you have the balls to step up to the plate. April 16th Nebraska, Punk you’re just going to be defence number 3 for Austin Aries.”
AJ Styles is waiting outside Don Callis office when Chris Ca$h comes out with a big bandage round his head after been busted open in the aftermath of the ladder match.
AJ Styles – “What did he say? Are we getting a shot against Majestic in Nebraska?”
Chris Ca$h – “Yep, it’s going to be a three on three match, we’re going to show Majestic that they can’t mess with the champs.”
AJ Styles – “Who’s our partner?”
As AJ Styles says that Trent Acid comes out of Callis office
AJ Styles – “Him? You got to be kidding me he’s a jackass.”
Trent Acid – “You’re the jackass.”
Chris Ca$h – “He saved you from been decimated by Majestic tonight and he wants to get his hands on them as well.”
AJ Styles – “What about all the times he stuck his nose in our business? He stole my tag title belt for god sake.”
Trent Acid – “I’m not happy with this to you know, but I want my revenge on Majestic to and I will be 100% legit a partner of yours in the tag match.”
Trent Acid extends his arm to AJ
AJ Styles – “Whatever.”
AJ just walks off, while Ca$h and Acid stand in bemusement.
Matt Sydal with Daizee Haze at his side as he looks in a good mood as he begins to talk.
Matt Sydal – “Tonight Alex Shelley, I proved I could hang with the big boys in SWEW by pinning you clean in the middle of the ring. I then refused your offer to join Majestic for one reason. The reason is I have enough ability to reach the top of SWEW on my own. I proved this by winning two ‘Fly or Die’ matches against Danny Daniels and Joey Matthews. I beat you tonight Shelley a former SWEW Heavyweight Champion and on April 16th I will prove it again by beating Samoa Joe and Spanky in a SWEW Triple Chance and getting a title shot at the SWEW Heavyweight Championship.”
We go into a dark room and we see Delirious and Super Dragon lurking behind Alex Shelley. Shelley has blood all over his face after been busted open in the aftermath of the ladder match after a chair shot from Trent Acid. Shelley looks out of it as he starts shouting at the camera as the show fades to black.
Alex Shelley – “You’re a dead man Acid, a dead man, everyone is going to fall at the hands of Majestic, everyone is going to fall, you’re a dead man Acid a dead man.”
As the tape goes to black we see an early card for the April 16th show for the Nebraska debut at the Reading National Guard Armoury entitled ‘The Pepsi Challenge’:
SWEW Heavyweight Championship

I'm not sure if your going for a completley new start or not so I won't criticse but CM Punk, Colt Cabana and Ace Steel never debuted for a long time in RoH and Teddy Hart in 2002?
After re-reading it, a PPV aswell for a debut show featuring people apart from Eddie and Corino who have barley ever been on TV before?
-
Thanks for the review Ekins and thanks to everyone else who has given me feedback as it motivates me to do more work on this :thumbsup: (next show should be up in the next couple of days.)
I have to agree with my grammer isn't the greatest, I haven't really had to write any proper essays for a while now, so don't get much practice. I try and prove read it all but I miss a few things. Everytime I do a diary (this is my first on EWB4 but i had a few on the other three) the shows always tended to get longer and longer as they go on due to more things to write about which slows down the speed shows can be done. I'm proud of quite a few of the angles I have done on this show and glad people like them.

Styles Ca$h© vs. H-Factor of Jack Evans & Teddy Hart vs. Low-Ki & Spanky vs. The Havana Pitbulls
Since capturing the SWEW Tag Team Championship on January 9th at ‘Mayhem in Minnesota – Night 2’ from the Havana Pitbulls, Styles Ca$h have continued there progress as one of the best teams on the independent scene by defending there titles against teams such as the SAT, Majestic and H-Factor. Actually there are there only title defences but they have been impressive, so impressive in fact that there was no direct one on one challengers for the title. So commissioner Don Callis has selected three top teams to challenge for the titles in a ladder match no less to make it more interesting.
H-Factor members Bobby Quance and Jack Evans came close to defeating the champions at ‘Rated 18’ how close will H-Factor members Jack Evans and Teddy Hart come to taking the titles. The duo are known to have done crazy things in big matches and Jack Evans has the only win in SWEW in a Ladder Match when he beat current SWEW Heavyweight Champion Austin Aries way back in September last year at the ‘4th Show Spectacular’. Will Evans be able to go (2-0) in ladder matches and take the titles along with Hart, H-Factor are putting there issues with John ‘OK’ Earl Roberts on the side for one show and hope it will prove a good choice.
Low-Ki and Spanky haven’t had much success as single workers in SWEW. Will teaming up bring them more success? They teamed up at ‘312 Hours Later’ and had a MOTYC against Austin Aries & CM Punk and despite losing looked good teaming up. If these two international stars can work well together and with a bit of luck we could have new champions. Spanky still has issues with now SWEW Heavyweight Champion Austin Aries and Spanky has been telling friends that he is looking to one day challenge Aries for the title but is 100% focused on taking the tag titles home with Low-Ki.
The Havana Pitbulls have not received a rematch from ‘Mayhem in Minnesota – Night 2’ when they lost the titles to Styles Ca$h and are angry. With Majestic taking them apart at ‘Rated 18’ in the main event in that brutal No-DQ match, the Pitbulls are really angry and slightly injured after the match at ‘Rated 18’. The Pitbulls will have to clear there mind of there problems with Majestic if they want to take the titles for a second time.
This match is going to be dangerous, with eight men climbing for the two titles perched high above the ring, and the risk factor is high. We saw backstage AJ Styles and Chris Ca$h having a small disagreement backstage but they have assured www.swew.com that, it was nothing and they are together 100% and they will come out of ‘Life on the Ladder’ with the titles still in tact, but there are 3 other teams looking to prove them wrong on March 28th by winning the only way they can. Climbing up a ladder and taking both titles down from the top.
SWEW Heavyweight Championship
Austin Aries© (w/Becky Bayless) vs. Jimmy Rave
That is not a misprint, at ‘Life on the Ladder’ our SWEW Heavyweight Championship match will be Austin Aries defending against Jimmy Rave. Both men have seen a dramatic turn in there fortunes this year. Austin Aries after picking Spanky as the man he needs to beat to rise to the top of SWEW after a match at ‘Mayhem in Minnesota – Night 2’ between the duo, Aries brutally attacked Spanky leaving him unable to compete in a future SWEW Triple Chance match which Aries won at ‘Saturday Showdown’ and as we all know now eventually went on to beat a injured Samoa Joe at ‘Rated 18’ and became SWEW Heavyweight Champion. Aries also recently got his victory over Spanky in a Dream Partner match when he teamed with CM Punk. That man CM Punk has become annoyed with Aries attitude over the last few weeks and with CM Punk having a SWEW Triple Chance will we finally see CM Punk cash in his title shot and take on Aries for the title in the near future?
We can’t be too confident however if Aries will still be champion after ‘Life on a Ladder’. After Jimmy Jacobs 6 month run, the title has bounced between Alex Shelley to Samoa Joe to Austin Aries in record time and Jimmy Rave hopes this can continue. Rave after a stuttering start to his SWEW career his riding a wave of momentum after picking up several wins already this year then winning his chance at the title by beating Low-Ki and Spanky at ‘Rated 18’ in a SWEW Triple Chance match. Raves confidence is high right now and he believes that once again he will win and become SWEW Heavyweight Champion. One other factor in the match could be Becky Bayless. We saw Bayless and Aries align at the end of ‘Rated 18’ but what is there full relationship and what does Jimmy Jacobs think of this relationship? One thing is for sure is that Austin Aries will have to be at the top of his game if he is to stop the curse of the SWEW Heavyweight Championship and begin a long reign as champion as he makes his first defence of the title.
Revenge Match I
Alex Shelley vs. Matt Sydal (w/Daizee Haze)
SWEW officials have made the decision, Alex Shelley’s ‘Ban The Choke Campaign’ has failed and Samoa Joe will be able to continue to use the hold in matches as the feud between Majestic and the Crew reaches fever pitch. Shelley is furious at the decision and once again has promised to take matters into his own hands and ruin the show for someone. We do not know who the victim or victims will be at ‘Life on the Ladder’ but we do know at ‘Rated 18’ Majestic ruined the night for Matt Sydal as he had just secured his place on the roster when he was brutally attacked after he had beaten Joey Matthews. Now Sydal is looking for revenge on the leader of Majestic as he looks to pick up a huge upset and defeat Alex Shelley. Shelley who led his Majestic to a victory over The Crew later in the night at ‘Rated 18’ is riding high at the moment and feels a win over Sydal will be academic but Sydal is not going to be backing down.
Revenge Match II
Majestic vs. The Crew of Samoa Joe & Trent Acid
At ‘Rage in a Cage’ after Samoa Joe had successfully defended the SWEW Heavyweight Championship against Jimmy Jacobs; Majestic attacked Samoa Joe and hung him from the steel cage putting him in hospital for 6 days. Samoa Joe still injured from that attack was unable to successfully defend his title against Austin Aries at ‘Rated 18’and was defeated for it. Samoa Joe then walked out on the rest of his Crew as they were defeated by Majestic in a six-man tag team no DQ match that saw the Havana Pitbulls take a lot of punishment but not as much as Trent Acid who was thrown a barbwire board then power bombed through several light tubes and a steel chair knocking him out cold and cutting his back up baldy. With Alex Shelley directing traffic, Majestic then attempted to hang Trent Acid like they did to Joe but were unable to as SWEW officials broke it up.
So in a match just added to the card the tag team of Majestic Delirious and Super Dragon will take on Crew members Samoa Joe and Trent Acid and the Crew are looking for revenge. On the home release of ‘Rated 18’ we saw Samoa Joe storm out of the building and not go to the ring with the rest of the Crew, we understood that Trent Acid and the Havana Pitbulls were annoyed with this, but Samoa Joe as leader told them it was necessary that the fight at ‘Rated 18’ remained three on three. Now Samoa Joe will finally get his hands on some of Majestic and is looking to beat them into a bloody pulp. However both Samoa Joe and Trent Acid are still feeling there injuries they have picked up via Majestic in the recent months and will have to be on top of there game to insure Majestic once again doesn’t get the better of the Crew.
A Matter Of Respect
Bobby Quance vs. John ‘OK’ Earl Roberts
John ‘OK’ Earl Roberts has been unsuccessful so far in showing the rest of the world that H-Factor are not respectful to him and the rest of the Caribbean. Despite already beating Teddy Hart and Bobby Quance once before, the ‘baddest Rastafarian on the planet’ is wanting more and will face Bobby Quance once again as Earl Roberts wants to show the crowd that Quance is nothing but a punk kid who won’t get anywhere in the business. Quance knows a win over Earl Roberts who has been on quite a roll recently would be a good one to pick up as he looks to shoot up the rankings in SWEW.
Fly or Die Match
The SAT vs. Wasted Talent
While under the wing of John ‘OK’ Earl Roberts in his battle against H-Factor, Wasted Talent of Alex Lovell and Ray Stevens have lost a lot of matches. Since graduating from the SWEW Academy earlier this year, they have yet to pick up a pinfall. They now have one last chance as they take on the SAT in a Fly or Die match where the losers lose there job. Earl Roberts has taken Wasted Talent back to his gym in the Caribbean and now they have returned and with his extra training Lovell and Stevens are confident they can break there duck and remain on the roster. The one problem with that is the SAT defeated Wasted Talent in there first ever match and the experienced Maximo brothers are not going to let there jobs go easy and hope this win could be a springboard to future title success.
New vs. Old School
Gregg Bradley vs. Jimmy Jacobs
SWEW would like to congratulate Gregg Bradley to be the third man to come out of the SWEW Academy. Bradley standing at a massive six foot four inches and weighing 210 pounds this 26 year old from Pennsylvania has a huge future in front of him as long as he can control the rage inside him which nearly got him kicked out of the Academy on several occasions for taking things to far. Trained my Alex Shelley, he rarely uses his skills learned from Alex as he has just smashed his way through opponents in the SWEW Academy using his Butterfly Powerbomb to great affect. Now Bradley is looking to show the world just how powerful he is as he takes on the first ever SWEW Heavyweight Champion Jimmy Jacobs returning to SWEW for the first time since been destroyed by Samoa Joe at ‘Rage in a Cage’ in the cage match. Jacobs now without Becky Bayless who has left him for new SWEW Heavyweight Champion Austin Aries knows a loss to someone in his debut match would be devastating but Bradley is much stronger and powerful than Jacobs who will have to use all his experience if he is to avoid this potential upset.

PRESHOW
Austin Aries arrives inside the building looking very confident as he steps into his lockeroom refusing to talk. He knows Samoa Joe is injured and he has no better chance of winning the SWEW Heavyweight Championship than tonight.
The Crew are backstage, Samoa Joe has bandages on his arm and both legs and looks really banged up but he starts talking slowly:
Samoa Joe – “Alex Shelley…..what you did to me……at ‘Rage In A Cage’………is something I will never……..forget.”
Samoa Joe starts coughing badly and has to have a drink of water before he can continue.
Samoa Joe – “You put me in……hospital for SIX DAYS……YOU THINK I WOULDN’T………..GET MY REVENGE SHELLEY?”
Samoa Joe starts coughing even worse and can’t breathe as raising his voice seemed to have taken everything out of him.
Rocky Romero – “Joe, Joe stop. You got to be ready for you match tonight.”
Ricky Reyes – “He’s right Joe, your defending the title against that punk Aries tonight; you have to be ready for that.”
Trent Acid – “Leave Majestic to us Joe.”
Trent Acid now stares into the camera as he appears to take the ‘lead’ for the Crew for the interview
Trent Acid – “Alex Shelley, Delirious, Super Dragon. What you did to our leader, you will pay for. Hanging Joe off a steel cage, leaving him lucky still be able to wrestle will be revenged. In front of 3000 plus screaming fans wanting your blood, Trent Acid and the Havana Pitbulls will tear you apart all through the Guthrie Centre and when it is over only the Crew will be left standing over your blooded bodies at the end of the night.”
Samoa Joe looks at Acid, surprised at his intensity as we go to the ring to start the show.
SHOW
Matt Sydal (w/Daizee Haze) d. Joey Matthews
For a second show in a row Matt Sydal was attempting to keep his job in SWEW in a ‘Fly or Die’ match and for a second show in a row Matt Sydal won the right to keep his job in SWEW. Joey Matthews who like Danny Daniels main evented the first SWEW put up a better attempt of beating Daniels and actually dominated the early going and nearly getting the win with a big dropkick on Sydal. Sydal however came more into the match and came close to beating Matthews when he hit a hurricanrana and hung on for a cover which only got two. Like Daniels, Matthews was beaten by Sydal when he hit the Shooting Star Press on Matthews after he hit a lariat to Matthews. Matthews left quickly as he is out of SWEW while Sydal has surely secured his spot on the roster now after another good performance and victory.
Result - Matt Sydal wins
(12:08) **3/4
As Matt Sydal and Daizee Haze celebrate in the ring out of nowhere Majestic hit the ring. Daizee bails as Sydal attempts to fight off the threesome but Super Dragon is able to take Sydal down to the mat with a hard shot to the back of his head. After stamping the hell out of Sydal, he is bungled out of the ring as Alex Shelley picks up the mic, before he can start talking a loud ‘shut the fuck up’ from the crowd is heard as a record 3200+ fans about to hear what Shelley has to stay:
Alex Shelley – “Another show comes around and once again Samoa Joe will be able to use his ‘choke’ to once again in his championship match with Austin Aries tonight. I for one am not surprised at the SWEW officials refusal to make a decision on whether the move is legal, which it clear isn’t. I mean he wraps his big fat Samoan hands round an opponents throat and chokes them out, how is that fair I ask you? Don Callis and the rest of SWEW officials are scared of Majestic gaining any power in SWEW, knowing there in nothing they can do to stop us, so they let Samoa Joe and the rest of the Crew get away with murder to attempt to stop us. However it doesn’t matter as at ‘Rage In A Cage’ just like what happened to Matt Sydal tonight we ruined the show for Samoa Joe as we gave Joe some of his own medicine and choked him out leaving him seconds from never wrestling again and putting him in hospital for a week. Tonight Majestic will take on Joe’s lackeys in a six man tag match and we will win for three simple reasons.”
Alex Shelley points at Delirious
Alex Shelley – “This is Delirious and he is the craziest mother fucker in SWEW.”
Alex Shelley points at Super Dragon
Alex Shelley – “This is Super Dragon and will kill anyone who gets in our way.”
Alex Shelley then stands in the middle of the ring and begins to talk again
Alex Shelley – “And I’m Alex Shelley and I AM A GOD and if anyone tries to stop us we will take you out.”
Shelley leaves with Dragon and Delirious following behind to a chorus of boos as Majestic destroyed Matt Sydal and gave out a warning to the Crew.
Winner gets a SWEW Tag Team Championship shot later in the night
H-Factor of Bobby Quance & Jack Evans d. Wasted Talent
In a match where the winners would face Styles Ca$h for the SWEW Tag Team Championship later in the night, Wasted Talent were simply trying to pick up there first win in any kind of action and once again they were unsuccessful as the H-Factor team picked up a win. Lots of neat mat work between Quance and Lovell was matched by the highflying work between Evans and Stevens as the two teams showed a lot of chemistry. Despite there best performance yet, Wasted Talent lost the match when Evans hit a big somersault dive onto Stevens on the floor and Quance blasted Lovell with a super kick which was enough to pick up the 3 count and set up a SWEW Tag Team Championship match later in the night. It was a good showing by al four men as some of the youngest members of the SWEW roster showed the future was bright for themselves.
Result - H-Factor of Bobby Quance & Jack Evans
(14:08) ***
SWEW Triple Chance Match
Jimmy Rave d. Low-Ki & Spanky
The SWEW Triple Chance match returned to Iowa and with three men looking for there first ever SWEW Heavyweight Championship shot. Low-Ki looked the dominant force in the early going hitting Spanky and Rave with some stiff kicks and coming close to picking up the win with a brainbuster on Jimmy Rave but Spanky broke up the count. The two small white boys started to get in the action as Spanky hit Low-Ki with some chops then dumped him to the outside and hit a plancha onto Low-Ki. Rave then joined them on the outside with his own plancha than snuck back in the ring and nearly got a win by count put but both Low-Ki and Spanky got back in, in time. Jimmy Rave was however able to pick up the shock win as he was groggily in the corner Low-Ki delivered the Ki-Krusher to Spanky but Spanky landed to far away from Low-Ki but near enough to Jimmy Rave who rolled up Spanky and got the three count. Rave quickly got out of the ring as Low-Ki looked like he was going to kill him. Low-Ki and Spanky stared at each other in respect as they reflect on what happened as Jimmy Rave has won a SWEW Triple Chance and a surprising shot at the SWEW Heavyweight Championship.
Result - Jimmy Rave wins
(17:47) ***3/4
Before his match John ‘OK’ Earl Roberts gets on the mic as usual before his match with H-Factor member Teddy Hart. The crowd are telling him to shut up before he eventually stars talking
John ‘OK’ Earl Roberts – “Once again earlier in the night the H-Factor cheated and disrespected me by beating my young boys earlier tonight. However it won’t happen again as I have been honing my skills, in the back allies of Trinidad and tonight Teddy Hart you will learn the you don’t mess with the ‘baddest Rastafarian on the planet’.”
John ‘OK’ Earl Roberts d. Teddy Hart
Teddy Hart made his way to the ring to a good pop and despite a slight clash of styles the duo produced a nice match. Hart worked a more strong style match than he is used to and struck Roberts with stiff chops all the way through the match. In a scary moment during the match Teddy Hart nearly landed on his neck when he never quite got enough rotation on a 450 twisting moonsault he landed right on the back of his head. Dazed, Teddy Hart still managed to get to the end of the match when John ‘OK’ Earl Roberts was able to hit an Ace Crusher on Teddy Hart. He then signalled for the Jamaican Driver, he picked Hart up and drove him down to the mat and covered for the big 3 count. Earl Roberts seemed very happy with his win, as ring officials quickly ran down to check on Teddy’s condition after that nasty fall.
Result - John 'OK' Earl Roberts wins
(13:00) **3/4
The SWEW Tag Team Champions AJ Styles and Chris Ca$h are backstage stretching and talking before there defence against H-Factor members Bobby Quance and Jack Evans later in the night.
Chris Ca$h – “You ever faced Quance or Evans before?”
AJ Styles – “A few times, shouldn’t be a problem tonight, they have already wrestled one match tonight and won’t be 100% for it, as long as we don’t have another fiasco like at ‘312 Hours Later’ we will be fine.”
Chris Ca$h – “Why do you have to bring that up all the time? I made one mistake and you’re going to continue punishing me? Don’t forget who brought you into SWEW. If it wasn’t for me Callis couldn’t afford to fly you in every week and you would be missing out on this pay check.”
AJ Styles – “The only reason you brought me here anyway was to be your partner so you would actually win something for the first time in your life. Just keep your act together and we will remain champions again.”
Ca$h doesn’t reply but doesn’t look happy with Styles as we go back to ringside.
SWEW Heavyweight Championship
Samoa Joe© vs. Austin Aries
Austin Aries came down to the aisle first as he prepared to challenge for the SWEW Heavyweight Championship for the second time. Aries came down to some boos but there were a few ‘Austin, Austin’ chants from the crowd as he waited in the ring for Joe. A battered and bruised Samoa Joe comes down with a slight hobble after the brutal attack from Majestic at ‘Rage In A Cage’ Joe gets mostly cheers as he rushes the ring and goes for Aries straight away as he knows he needs to get this one out of the way fast as he makes his 3rd title defence.
After hitting Aries with a series of slaps he attempts to lock in the choke but Aries wriggles out of it and leaves the ring. Aries slams his hands on the ring in frustration as he comes back into the ring. The duo grapple but even a weakened Joe outpowerers Aries and takes him to the mat and hits him with a hard palm strike right in his forehead before releasing the hold. They grapple again but this time Aries hits a boot into Joes gut before poking him in his eye giving Aries a chance to hit a big dropkick onto Joe knocking him down. Aries covers and gets a two. Aries locks in a headlock on Joe on the ground and starts kicking Joe’s bad right knee with his free legs. Joe is able to get up from this but needed to pull himself up using the ropes after elbowing out of Aries hold. Joe waited in the corner as Aries ran at him and tried for a big splash but Joe stepped out with a huge STO

Austin Aries Austin Aries ducked a standing clothesline from Samoa Joe, hit the ropes and came back and attempted a crucifix but Samoa Joe held Aries up in the position. Aries kept trying to throw Joe down but couldn’t as Joe held Aries up until his knee gave way and Aries drove Joe into the mat with the crucifix driver

Joe just kicked out. Aries already in position on the mat locked Joe in the Rings of Saturn. Joe screamed in agony as his battered body was been stretched to its very limits. Using all the strength he could muster Joe rolled over and flung Aries out of the ring, then used his last bit of energy to come over the ropes with a plancha killing Aries on the outside.
Both men were slowly up, Joe rocked Aries with a head butt and threw him into a chair by the guard rail and it was Ole Kick time. Two times Aries head bounced off the guardrails before he signalled for a third one. Joe ran at Aries but Aries picked up the chair and Joe ran right into it. Aries then tripped Joe up and he went head first onto the railings catching his neck on the top. Joe immediately started coughing like earlier in the night but Aries never let up and threw Joe in the ring and covered for a two. Joe tried to catch his breath but Aries stomped on Joe for a bit then hit two pendulum elbows and covered for another 2. Aries ran at Joe but Joe lifted his knee and it smashed into Aries, hurting them both. Samoa Joe hit a T-Bone suplex on Austin Aries and covered for two. Both men were up again and Aries blocked a Samoa Joe kick by catching the foot, but couldn't block the follow up enziguri

Aries however used his leg and hit a low blow on Joe to get out of it. Aries ran at Joe and tried to knock him down but he just bounced off Joe and Joe lifted him up for the Island Driver but Joe’s knee gives way and Aries lands on top of him

SWEW Tag Team Championship
Styles Ca$h d. H-Factor of Bobby Quance & Jack Evans
The crowd were still in shock after Austin Aries became the SWEW Heavyweight Champion, Evans and Quance came down to a nice pop as two of the most popular teams in SWEW fought for the SWEW Tag Team Championship. Styles Ca$h were able to make there 3rd successful title defence but not after a few scares. When Evans rolled Ca$h up mid match he got a long two count and when Quance hit a Shooting Star Press on Styles, Ca$h just managed to stop the count at two. However H-Factor started to tire late into the match after facing Wasted Talent in a 15 minute match earlier in the night and it was a tired mistake that cost them as when Quance went for a dive to the outside onto Styles, AJ moved and Quance crashed onto the floor. Evans was then left two on one and he walked straight into a Ca$h dropkick and stumbled into AJ Styles who hit the Styles Clash and AJ made the cover for the win. It was a good showing by the H-Factor team but they will be disappointed on not capturing the titles while Styles Ca$h continue on a good roll.
Result - Styles Ca$h win
(15:09) ****
Don Callis comes out before the main event and picks up the mic while a small Callis chant is going on, while SWEW officials bring out weapons for the main event:

We once again thank you for coming and hope you can join us again. Now however it is time for out main event, if you are squeamish or have young children under the age of 18 with you. I as owner of SWEW recommended you leave now as we cannot guarantee your safety, the wrestler’s safety and other SWEW staff safety as things are going to be out on control.”
Before the main event we see former SWEW Heavyweight Champion and leader of the Crew, Samoa Joe leaving the arena backstage with his bags and looking pissed as he is leaving before seeing how the rest of his team do against Majestic who came close to ending his career at ‘Rage In A Cage’.
No DQ Match
Majestic vs. The Crew of Ricky Reyes, Rocky Romero & Trent Acid
First out came Majestic who were lead out by Alex Shelley, Super Dragon was holding a large piece of wood with barbwire put round it as SWEW officials brought out 2 barbwire boards, a ladder and several small, chairs and other small objects round the ring. Delirious was going crazy in the ring running the ropes as Shelley looked on with a smile on his face. The Crew came out and they ran to the ring all with steel chairs in hands. Majestic bailed and refused to come in into the Crew dropped there weapons to the outside. They did so and the match started with no weapons as the six men were in the ring for the fight, no tags will be needed in this match as things get started.
Trent Acid leapt at Super Dragon and drove him into the corner. Shelley was dumped to the outside by Reyes who followed while Romero took Delirious to the fall with an arm bar. Shelley took Reyes down on the outside with a kick downstairs then he threw him onto the floor and then attacked Romero on the floor inside the ring. Delirious hit a tope onto Reyes on the floor outside taking both of them out as Dragon and Acid traded chops inside the ring. Shelley locked in a submission hold on Romero but he raked Shelley’s eyes. Acid threw Dragon to the outside on top of Delirious and Reyes on the floor. He measured up for a plancha but Shelley from behind grabbed Acid and hit a German suplex on him and covered

Acid kicked out, then Romero attacked Shelley and threw him to the floor. Then Acid was launched over the top rope by Romero taking out all three members of Majestic as Reyes got out of the way. Majestic recovered and regrouped as they each picked up a weapon and into the ring. Shelley hammered Reyes with a steel chair as he tried to flee the ring and got knocked through the ropes. Shelley followed Reyes to the outside as Acid Yakuza Kicked a steel chair into Delirious and covered but Dragon broke it up after he had knocked Acid to the outside with a metal sheet. On the outside Shelley was been choked by some wire on Reyes but Reyes was busted open as Delirious from behind scrapped a barb-wire 2X4 across Reyes letting the blood pour. Shelley and Delirious then set up a barbwire board between the ring apron and guardrail. They tried to double suplex Romero onto it but Reyes was just up and hit Shelley leaving a grapple between Delirious and Rocky Romero. There was only going to be one winner as Rocky Romero picked Delirious up and drove him onto the barbwire board snapping it in half. The crowd were going crazy as a SWEW official helped Delirious get untangled from the board. Dragon inside the ring hit a tornado DDT on a steel chair to Acid and covered

Reyes had just snuck back into the ring to break it up. Reyes started stamping on Dragon as Shelley from behind had brought a second barb wire board in the ring but did not use it as he used the electric cable that Reyes earlier used on him and choked him pulling back far squeezing the life out of him until Romero from behind hit Shelley with a steel chair cutting the back of his head open.

He just kicked out. Romero was gathering himself up on the outside when from out of nowhere Delirious hammered Romero with a light tube smashing glass all over his face. Romero was out cold as he was bleeding profusely. We found out where Delirious got the light tubes from as he drags a whole load of them into the ring from underneath it. Romero was now a no factor and with Acid on the floor in the ring it was 3 on 1 on Reyes. Super Dragon managed to hit Reyes with a steel chair and they dumped him out of the ring leaving Majestic and Trent Acid in the ring. Shelley instructed Delirious and Super Dragon to finish him off. They placed 10 light tubes between 2 steel chairs then Shelley picked up Trent Acid from the rubble of the barbwire board and with the help of Dragon and Delirious power bombed Trent Acid through the light tubes

The pin was academic as Majestic had gotten the better of the Crew once again. Alex Shelley from somewhere got another noose and was about to choke out Trent Acid when SWEW officials quickly ran out to stop them this time. Majestic left quietly and Alex Shelley started laughing as they had won the war tonight over the Crew leaving Trent Acid, Ricky Reyes and Rocky Romero lying in there own blood as the show came to an end.
Result - Majestic win

POSTSHOW
We are backstage and we see Becky Bayless kneeling in front of Austin Aries round the groin area and Aries looks really happy.
Becky Bayless – “WOW, it’s so big.”
Austin Aries – “I know, do you want to touch it?”
Becky Bayless – “Can I, wow it feels so smooth.”
Austin Aries – “You’ve had it before, you know how it felt then.”
Becky stands up and we see Aries taking his newly won SWEW Heavyweight Championship from around his waist and puts it on his shoulder.”
Becky Bayless – “I know, but Jimmy lost it and I haven’t seen it in such a long time now he isn’t returning my calls anymore.”
Austin Aries – “How about you come with me?”
Becky Bayless – “What about Jimmy?”
Austin Aries – “Forget him, get with the champ and you can join me on the way to the top.”
Becky Bayless – “OK.”
Becky hugs Aries then Aries steps back and moves towards the exit
Austin Aries – “Hey get my bags.”
Aries walks out and Becky looks shocked as she picks up Aries bags and walks towards the exit.
John ‘OK’ Earl Roberts and Wasted Talent are in there lockeroom talking
John ‘OK’ Earl Roberts – “OK, I’ve just come out of Callis office. I have some good news and some bad news for you guys.”
Alex Lovell – “What’s the bad news?”
John ‘OK’ Earl Roberts – “The bad news is I couldn’t get you out of the ‘Fly or Die’ match with the SAT in Minnesota and you have to win the match to keep your jobs.”
Ray Stevens – “What’s the good news?”
John ‘OK’ Earl Roberts – “The good news is tonight, I showed Teddy Hart what the ‘baddest Rastafarian on the planet’ could do to him. I knocked him out and pinned him 1, 2, 3. The H-Factor won’t see what has hit them and I also get to take on Bobby Quance again this time in Minnesota and I will dedicate that win to Brian Lara the greatest cricketer of all time.”
Ray Stevens – “How the hell is that good news? You said follow me and we will win matches. We haven’t won once yet and if we lose again we lose our jobs.”
John ‘OK’ Earl Roberts – “Don’t worry, I will take you to the Caribbean and we will go to the toughest gyms and will train till there is no way you can lose again.”
Alex Lovell – “You better be right, I’m not going back to washing cars for a living.”
Jimmy Rave is walking out of the building while a camera man is running after him
Camera Man – “Jimmy, Jimmy wait.”
Jimmy Rave – “What is it?”
Camera Man – “You got to cut your promo for the Aries match.”
Jimmy Rave – “I’m getting promo time?”
Camera Man – “Yeah, you got to cut a promo for the SWEW Heavyweight Championship match with Aries at the next show.”
Jimmy Rave – “Really?”
Camera Man – “Yeah, it will be alright doing it here, I’ll just set the tape going.”
Jimmy Rave – “Alright then.”
Camera Man – “Ok 3, 2, 1.”
Jimmy Rave – “Austin Aries, you shocked the whole of SWEW by becoming the SWEW Heavyweight Champion tonight. However there is a bigger story, Jimmy Rave is on a role, I’m unbeaten in months now and just one show ago I won a match that you were in. I know the crowd don’t know me to well, but they will all know me when I came to Minnesota to become the new SWEW Heavyweight Champion.”
Camera Man – “Cut.”
Jimmy Rave – “Was that ok?”
Camera Man – “Fine.”
Jimmy Rave – “Alright, see you in Minnesota.”
Jimmy Rave walks out of the building as the tape goes to black.

edit - I feel the promos in this show are 100X better than the last ones and the characters become across a lot better then previously. I think I rather rushed the last promos where I took my time over this and it seems a lot better.

Jesus christ I updated on Tuesday, it's been less than a week and I've been at work everyday since Thursday this week and just got off a 9hr shift as I need money to go back to Uni which i do on Thurdsday. I have some free time this week so should or i hope it will be up for Wednesday or before. Then it could be two weeks before the next show after that depending on my new timetable
edit - It won't be up this week, but maybe over the weekend or next week
edit again - OK wrote it all up apart from the main event now but i had to reformat the PC over the weekend so couldn't write much over then but did quite a bit today. However reformating the PC has screwed up the TEW licence so need to get that softed as i have a lot of the games info in the TEW notepad and i need that to continue but still hope it will be up sometime tommorow

Rated 18
March 12th 2005
Guthrie Center, Iowa
Super Wrestling Extravaganza Wrestling comes home to Iowa in the Guthrie Centre. We must warn you there is going to be an immense amount of violence in our main event and we suggest that if you are bringing young children or are under 18 you should leave before our main event as things are going to get nasty as The Crew of Ricky Reyes, Rocky Romero and Trent Acid will be looking for revenge for Majestic hanging there leader Samoa Joe from a steel cage just a few weeks ago as they face Alex Shelley, Delirious and Super Dragon in a no disqualification six man tag match. Samoa Joe has his own problems however at only 70% he will be defending his SWEW Heavyweight Championship against the cocky Austin Aries who is looking to cause a major upset and take the gold home.
No DQ Match
Majestic vs. The Crew of Ricky Reyes, Rocky Romero & Trent Acid
After the main event of ‘Rage In A Cage’ in one of the most sickening moments in recent wrestling history, Alex Shelley lived out his promise of ruining the show, as after one of Samoa Joes biggest career moments of retaining the SWEW Heavyweight Championship, along with Majestic, inside a steel cage he brutally attacked the leader of the Crew then hung him from the steel cage choking the life out of him and was only saved when the rest of the Crew broke through the steel cage door and released Samoa Joe from the cage as Majestic fled over the steel cage. Samoa Joe was immediately taken to a local hospital and it was just under a week before he was released. The rest of the Crew are furious of what happened and have promised sickening, violent and bloody revenge as SWEW Owner Don Callis has booked a six man tag team no disqualification match featuring Majestic of Alex Shelley, Delirious and Super Dragon taking on Crew members Ricky Reyes, Rocky Romero and Trent Acid.
While we further investigate the use of Samoa Joe’s choke on if it is a legal or illegal hold, Alex Shelley has promised that Majestic will once again ruin the show for someone. Who will they possibly target in Iowa? It could be anyone and we have warned all SWEW wrestlers to be on there guard this week. With this match there is a huge chance of a disaster happening so SWEW officials have had no choice but to slap an 18 rating on the match and make it the final match of the night as both teams have vowed to simply destroy each other. We recommended once again if you have young children or are under 18 you leave before the match begins as we can not guarantee the safety of the wrestlers, ring officials and even the fans in attendance. The Guthrie Centre is never going to be the same again after the match and we just hope when the chaos is over and the mist has cleared there will be a clear winning and the six athletes will be able to walk away from the match.
SWEW Heavyweight Championship
Samoa Joe© vs. Austin Aries
For six days SWEW Heavyweight Champion Samoa Joe was left lying in hospital after nearly been chocked to death at the end of ‘Rage In A Cage’ by Alex Shelley and the rest of Majestic after successfully defending his SWEW Heavyweight Championship for the 2nd time. While the rest of the Crew will be taking revenge for Samoa Joe, he has is own problems with the cocky, brash Austin Aries who is looking to make a major upset and become SWEW Heavyweight Champion. Samoa Joe is only at 70%; he is finding it hard to breathe and is banged up all over. However despite this he still think he has enough to get past this match with Aries and keep the title. Young Austin has been making some pretty big enemies recently with the likes of CM Punk and Spanky both wanting to have a match with Aries after what he has done in recent weeks. Aries is feeling very happy with this and glad he has gotten everyone’s attention, so they can watch him beat an injured Samoa Joe and become SWEW Heavyweight Champion.
SWEW Triple Chance Match
Jimmy Rave vs. Low-Ki vs. Spanky
The SWEW Triple Chance match returns to SWEW as we come back to Iowa in what promises to be a great match. All three men have picked the SWEW Heavyweight Championship belt as the one they will go after if they win, due to Samoa Joes current injuries and all three men have a chance of winning. Jimmy Rave the clear outsider in the match after a poor start to his SWEW career is now on a run with winning in his last three matches. Rave hopes the forward momentum continues as he goes into the match with nothing to lose, and everything to gain. Low-Ki despite been a huge star has lacked direction in his SWEW career. Finally admitting his war of getting the Crew and Majestic out of SWEW may be a hard one to do, he is focusing now on his singles career and what better way to do that by getting a shot at the SWEW Heavyweight Championship. Spanky was finally found the one man that gets under his skin and desperately wants him in a match. Austin Aries has attacked Spanky, insulted Spanky and generally annoyed him in 2005. Spanky is desperate to get another shot at him and if they both win there matches at Rated 18, it could finally happen and for the SWEW Heavyweight Championship.
Fly or Die II
Joey Matthews vs. Matt Sydal (w/Daizee Haze)
With Matt Sydal beating Danny Daniels in the first ‘Fly or Die’ match to keep his place on the roster and Daniels losing his, we at the SWEW offices have decided that isn’t enough after reviewing Sydals win/loss record. So we have placed him in the second ‘Fly or Die’ match this time with Joey Matthews, who after a great start in SWEW had failed to win in a long time. We have heard neither man are happy with this stipulations to the match especially Sydal who thought he had earned the right to stay on the roster with a win over Danny Daniels last month but both are going to be trying 100% to keep there places on the roster in the second ‘Fly or Die’ match.
Grudge Match
John ‘OK’ Earl Robert vs. Teddy Hart
John ‘OK’ Earl Roberts has likened Teddy Hart and the rest of H-Factor to the tourist, party boys that came over to his ‘native’ Caribbean islands and laughed at him and respected him. Earl Roberts has decided not to take it anymore and at ‘Rage In A Cage’ along with Wasted Talent he was really close to pulling off a huge win over H-Factor but never got the job done. Now in singles action he is hoping to get a victory over Teddy Hart, who claims that he is just trying to inject some fun into SWEW but if Earl Roberts wants to make it personal, he is more than happy to do so. It promises to be very interesting and both men cannot afford to lose this one.
Winner gets a SWEW Tag Team Championship shot later in the night
H-Factor of Bobby Quance & Jack Evans vs. Wasted Talent
Continuing on from last month, due to there allegiance with John ‘OK’ Earl Roberts, Wasted Talent of Alex Lovell and Ray Stevens will do battle as his young boys once again as they take on H-Factor members Bobby Quance and Jack Evans. There is a huge prize at steak for the match as later in the night the winners of the match will take on SWEW Tag Team Champions AJ Styles & Chris Ca$h for the titles. Wasted Talent yet to win a match will be hoping the huge prize on offer will spur them to make that allusive first win while Quance and Evans hope they can become SWEW Tag Team Champions by winning twice in the same night. Chris Ca$h has stated it doesn’t matter who wins as they surely won’t be 100% wrestling there second match in a night and they will be able to retain the gold once again.
Once again we have to remind you if you are brining young children or are under 18 please consider leaving before the main event as we can not guarantee you or workers for SWEW will be safe during it. We however hope as many of you can be there as you will see the Crew of Ricky Reyes, Rocky Romero and Trent Acid look for revenge over Majestic in a no DQ six man tag. Samoa Joe at only 70% will defend the SWEW Heavyweight Championship against Austin Aries plus other huge stars including AJ Styles, Low-Ki and Spanky will be in action. Tickets are only $15 at the door or the Guthrie Centre, Iowa or through www.swew.com. We must remind you once again this show as been ‘Rated 18’ and yo must consider if you are prepared to come before you do so.

I'm glad that Joe won, but a little surprised that Majestic owned him afterwards. I'm looking forwards to an eventual Shelley vs. Joe rematch.
I dont like the fact that Aries lost in the opener, when he will be featured in the main event next month. It gives him no momentum at all for his match, and it makes Joe's win against him next month worthless. The Aries promo wasnt very good either. He barely mentioned Punk, there wasnt even a challenge or a threat made.
The matches were a lot of fun though, keep it up.
-
OK from now on I'm going to write out the promos in full as it will get the character across better and I may go back and edit past promos to get older points across for new readers, if people like the new style. Also I'm back at Uni a week Thursday so I hope to do one more show before I go back then it may be a bit longer between shows but hopefully not to long.

SHOW
We open the show with Alex Shelley, Delirious and Super Dragon making there way down to the ring as Majestic look in good shape for tonight. Delirious and Super Dragon are holding clipboards as Alex Shelley has the microphone. Delirious and Super Dragon stand behind Alex Shelley as he bangs on the microphone still everyone shuts up before he starts talking.
Alex Shelley – “If your wondering what Majestic are doing out here with clipboards, your all obviously morons who haven’t been on the website and seen what has happened these past few weeks. I have started the ‘Ban The Choke Campaign’ and the campaign is a simple one. Stop Samoa Joe using an illegal hold or Majestic are going to ruin every single show and attack anyone we want. Samoa Joe claims to have two straight victories over me. The truth to that is the only way Samoa Joe can beat me is choking me out and that must be stopped. My loyal solders Delirious and Super Dragon both have clipboards and a pen and we would like all of you idiots in North Dakota to sign the petition to stop Samoa Joe using the choke in SWEW matches.”
The visual of Delirious and Super Dragon trying to get fans to sign the petition was priceless. Fans however were refusing to sign the petition and Dragon and Delirious looked up to Shelley who called the fans morons and told them to sign it again but they refused again so Delirious and Super Dragon rolled back into the ring.
Alex Shelley – “Fine, have it your way, Majestic will have to ruin another show tonight, just like we ruined Trent Acids big night in South Dakota. I feel tonight is going to be a great night for Majestic. I’m going to beat Trent Acid and make that pretty boy tap like a little bitch, Delirious and Super Dragon will take the SWEW Tag Team Championship, and Majestic will rise above the Crew to become number one in SWEW, and WE WILL RUIN THE SHOW TONIGHT.”
Alex Shelley, Delirious and Super Dragon leave the ring to boos as they have really gotten Majestic over as a top heel group in the last few weeks and it was a good promo from Shelley there.
Jimmy Rave d. Austin Aries, Ricky Reyes & Spanky
Jimmy Rave picked up a surprising victory over three top superstars in SWEW as he continues his winning streak, making it three in a row now. Aries in his final match before his SWEW Heavyweight Championship shot at the next show in Iowa and rival Spanky were looking to fight each other at all times possible, but with only two men in the ring at the same time and all four men wanting in, it wasn’t possible. It was the great dissention between Aries and Spanky that led to the finish of the match as when all four men came into the ring the match descended into chaos.
Aries was knocked to the outside by Spanky and Rave, and then Spanky hit a plancha onto Aries on the floor. The two continued to brawl on the outside and into the crowd hitting each other with chairs and whatnot. This left just Rave and Reyes in the ring, Reyes chased Rave who went outside, Reyes went outside, Rave went back inside and when Reyes followed him to the delight of the 1474 fans inside the Hallom Arena, Jimmy Rave struck Ricky Reyes with a Shining Wizard and covered for the 3 count. Rave quickly got out of there happy with his win while Reyes left quietly hoping no one will see him after losing to Jimmy Rave.
Austin Aries and Spanky were still brawling in the crowd and eventually got back into the ring. The duo were just rolling around in the ring hammering each other with punches onto each other as road agents came down to break them up. It is clear the issues between Austin Aries and Spanky have not been settled and both will be looking for a one on one match against each other in the not to distant future.
Result - Jimmy Rave wins
(15:07) ***1/4
Matt Sydal (w/Daizee Haze) d. Danny Daniels
In a match where both men needed to win to keep there place on the roster in SWEW, it was Matt Sydal who picked up the win after nearly 10 minutes of action. After some good work from both men, the finish came when Daniels set Sydal up on the top rope for a suplex but Daniels was pushed off and Sydal hit a Shooting Star Press onto Daniels for the win. It may be a long time before we see Daniels in a SWEW ring as a man who main evented the first show has lost is place on the roster. Sydal will be looking to build on his win in future shows.
Result - Matt Sydal wins
(9:32) **1/2
CM Punk has a pre-recorded interview sent into SWEW last week which is played. Punk is looking into the camera sitting down in what looks like a lobby somewhere.
CM Punk – “Super Wrestling Extravaganza Wrestling, SWEW, the most stupid name for a wrestling promotion I’ve heard all my life. I mean what the hell does it mean? I get a call late last year from Don Callis about coming to the big Ultimate Challenge Cup tournament as a favour to him. I agreed for a one time deal as everybody wants the straight edge hero CM Punk, in there big shows, I doesn’t matter where it is, East Coast, West Coast, Midwest, they all want CM Punk. So I wrestle in the Ultimate Challenge Cup, get to the semi-finals and get this, win a SWEW Triple Chance letting me have a title shot any time I want.
For two months every day Don Callis was on the phone to me. Punk when are you having your title shot. Punk Alex Shelley is the new champion you want to face him? Samoa Joe is the new champion do you want to face him? Now I will tell all my fans what I told Don Callis every time he asked. I will wrestle for the belt whenever I want to. I wasn’t planning to return for a long time until earlier this month I got a phone call from Austin Aries. He kept it simple, he said Punk I need a partner will you be my partner. Let’s get this straight, I like the guy, he’s very talented and will be a star in the future but it’s not his time yet. So anyway I agreed to tag with him and to no ones surprise we beat Spanky and Low-Ki. However it should have been me who got the pin.
I hit Spanky with the Pepsi Plunge was about to make the cover, then I see Austin hit Spanky with the 450 cover him and pick up the win and have Spankys name in his win column. He then celebrates like he did the work all by himself so I push him away and now I here that he is running scared of me. It’s no surprise, I’m straight edge and I’m better than Austin Aries and if he has the balls to step in the ring with me one on one, we will find out that I AM STRAIGHT EDGE, I AM BETTER THAN YOU.”
Low-Ki d. Rocky Romero
In a great stiff matchup, Low-Ki got one over the Crew by beating Rocky Romero with 14 minutes or hard action. Both men traded chops, kicks, slaps as they tried to pick up the victory. Romero thought he would pick up a huge singles win as he hit Low-Ki with a hard lariat out of nowhere 12 minutes in but Low-Ki kicked out barley. The finish came when Low-Ki had locked Romero into the Dragon Clutch, Romero flipped Low-Ki over his head but Low-Ki swung his leg back widely and hit a huge superkick to Romero knocking him down hard. Low-Ki made the cover and picked up the win. The crowd were pretty blown away with that as the duo just beat the crap out of each other.
Result - Low-Ki wins
(14:09) ****
Before the six way tag John ‘OK’ Earl Roberts came down on his own and picked up the mic.
John ‘OK’ Earl Roberts – “When I was a young man growing up on the streets of the West Indies, I would see all these party boys come into my town, make fun of my clothes while I picked up trash in the street. They would make fun of my family, my life and my people. Now 10 years later in SWEW the H-Factor come into SWEW and don’t respect me the baddest Rastafarian on the planet, and they don’t respect the Caribbean.”
The crowd are booing and telling him to ‘shut the fuck up’ before he starts talking again.
John ‘OK’ Earl Roberts – “So tonight, along with my young boys we are going to take out the H-Factor and dedicate the win to the rest of my people.”
H-Factor d. Alex Lovell, John ‘OK’ Earl Roberts & Ray Stevens
Fifteen minutes of pure highflying action which saw H-Factor of Jack Evans, Bobby Quance and Teddy Hart together in a match for the first time. Wasted Talent certainly didn’t look out of place higher up the card as Stevens looked good in keeping the highfliers on the mat while Lovell took to the air himself and nearly picked up a win for his team when he hit a top rope tornado DDT onto Bobby Quance who just got his foot on the rope. Jack Evans picked up the win for his team after Teddy Hart had hit a twisted 450 moonsault taking out Stevens, Earl Roberts and Quance on the floor as everything had gone to pieces. Evans hit Lovell with a big hurricanrana climbed the ropes and hit a 630 splash onto him and covered for the win. H-Factor left happy with the win while Earl Roberts and Wasted Talent will be looking for a better showing in Iowa next month.
Result – H-Factor win
(15:02) **3/4
Alex Shelley d. Trent Acid
Once again Trent Acid came out with AJ Styles SWEW Tag Team Championship belt around his waist as he came to the ring. However he looked a lot more serious as the man who masterminded his attack backstage, would be in the ring with him tonight. Alex Shelley dominated the early goings keeping Acid down on the mat with various submission holds. Acids attempts to come back were usually foiled by Shelley as a clear face/heel match was established and Shelley focused mainly on Acids arm but was unable to hook in the Border City Stretch. When Acid was finally able to mount some offence he looked like he could take home the victory. After hitting Shelley with some hard strikes he hit a Blue Thunder Bomb to Shelley and got two. He then locked Shelley into a boston crab but Shelley was able to get to the ropes.
Alex Shelley was able to pick up the big victory when he managed to dodge a Yakuza Kick. Acid not sure where he was, turned right into the Shell Shock. Shelley was then easily able to hook in the Border City Stretch and with all the work done earlier on Shelleys arm he had no choice but to tap. As Alex Shelley left happy with his win, Trent Acids night went from bad to worse as he was getting up to leave with AJ Styles belt, who else but AJ Styles himself came down and beat Acid down until he was able to get back his SWEW Tag Team Championship belt. A Styles Clash later, Acid was down then Styles threw him over the top rope. Chris Ca$h came out as Styles Ca$h prepared to defend there SWEW Tag Team Championship and joined him in the ring. Acid looked depressed as he headed to the back as fans seemed to be laughing at him.
Result - Alex Shelley wins
(18:58) ****
SWEW Tag Team Championship
Styles Ca$h© d. Majestic (w/Alex Shelley)
Who else but Alex Shelley rejoined us after less than a minute in the back as he led out Delirious and Super Dragon out for there shot at the SWEW Tag Team Championship. Styles and Ca$h waiting in the ring for them started the match off fast by hitting double planchas onto Majestic on the outside to kick us off. After a good opening from Chris Ca$h, Alex Shelley tripped Ca$h as he ran the ropes and was sent to the back by ref Paul Turner but it did its job as Super Dragon and Delirious took over. Dragon and Delirious swapped quick tags as they worked over Ca$h badly. Delirious nearly scored a pinfall after a tornado DDT but Ca$h just kicked out. Super Dragons attempt for a Psycho Driver just missed out as Ca$h wormed out but Ca$h was killed by a lariat from Dragon then he did a huge face stomp on Ca$h and covered but got two again.
Ca$h was finally able to tag out when he dodged a Delirious dropkick and hit his own dropkick. AJ made the hot tag and cleared house. Delirious and Super Dragon weren’t able to stop Styles who managed to throw Dragon to the outside. Ca$h hit a tope onto Dragon on the outside while AJ Styles was able to hit the Styles Clash on the Delirious and turn him over to make the 3 count and the 2nd successful defence of the SWEW Tag Team Championship. Delirious and Super Dragon went quickly to the back as the champions celebrated there victory.
Result - Styles Ca$h win
(20:10) ***
As the steel cage was been set up for the main event of ‘Rage In A Cage’ Don Callis came out:
Don Callis – “Super Wrestling Extravaganza Wrestling would like to thank all 1400 plus fans in attendance for coming tonight and hope you can come to future events, for our next show to take place on March 12th in Iowa at the Guthrie Centre we already have some huge matches signed. Austin Aries will take on whoever the SWEW Heavyweight Champion is after the upcoming steel cage match between champion Samoa Joe and Jimmy Jacobs. John ‘OK’ Earl Roberts will take on Teddy Hart while the rest of H-Factor Jack Evans and Bobby Quance will take on Wasted Talent with the winner of the match having a shot at the SWEW Tag Team Championship later in the night and in a matches signed minutes ago the SWEW Triple Chance match will return as Low-Ki, Spanky and Jimmy Rave will compete for a chance at a title shot and Matt Sydal will take on Joey Matthews. We once again thank you for coming and hope you can join us again. Also if you take offence to violence we recommend you leave now as the main event will get nasty.”
SWEW Heavyweight Championship
Steel Cage Match
Samoa Joe© vs. Jimmy Jacobs (w/Becky Bayless)
Jimmy Jacobs and Becky Bayless came out first as HUSS rang round the arena. Jacobs looked up 15ft to the top of the cage and climbed to the top then climbed down into the ring. The SWEW Heavyweight Champion Samoa Joe was down next, he paced round the ring grabbing on the cage and shaking it before going through the door. Ref Sean Hanson took the SWEW Heavyweight Championship from Samoa Joe took it outside, came back in the ring and locked the door shut with a padlock. The only way to win is pinfalls and submissions and escaping the cage will not win the match.
The two men went body to body as we started. Samoa Joe blasted Jacobs with a series of forearms to the face and Jacobs returned with a chop to Joe which had zero effect. Jimmy Jacobs hit Samoa Joe with another chop which did not faze him. Jacobs hit the rope and hit Joe with a big clothesline which didn’t faze him but pissed him off as Samoa Joe slammed Jacobs face-first into the cage twice before throwing him into the cage and he covered for a two.
Samoa Joe picked up and body slammed Jacobs. Jacobs felt the power of Samoa Joe as he took a sustained vertical suplex which he held for 20 seconds. Jacobs was just getting killed in there as Joe covered for another two. A scoop slam put Jimmy Jacobs down to the mat and Joe dragged Jacobs into the corner and gave him a face-wash. He then set up for a big ass to the face but Jacobs rolled out of the way and Joe crashed into the corner. Jacobs climbed up that corner and held onto the cage as he kicked Joe hard in the head from a standing position. Joe was dazed and Jacobs came off the ropes with a big crossbody:

NO
Joe kicks out. Jacobs continued to stamp on Joe, and picked Joe up and tried to bash his head into the cage but was unable to as Joe stopped him and rammed Jacobs head into the cage and mauled his head against the cage ripping him open. Blood started to pour from Jacobs head. Jacobs was wildly swinging his arm trying to hit Joe as blood covered his eyes and Joe started slapping Jacobs hard, and Jacobs fell to the mat. With Jimmy Jacobs down on the mat, Samoa Joe hit a falling headbutt on Jacobs getting Jacobs blood on him. Joe locked in a STF on Jacobs and wrenched back on Jacobs head letting the blood flow further.
The blood was pouring from Jacobs as he was screaming in pain. The crowd were really getting behind Jacobs as Becky banged on the cage begging him to get up. Jacobs started to bite Joe’s fingers and Joe let go of the hold. Jacobs crawled up the ropes to get up as Joe stood and laughed. Joe hit Jacobs with some big boots, but Jacobs got a sudden burst of energy and hammered Jacobs with 10 fast shots to Joes head making him stagger back. Out of desperation Jacobs climbed up to the top of the cage as Joe followed him up. Joe and Jacobs were hammering each other on the top rope. Jacobs managed to kick Joe off the ropes and he crashed to the mat. Jacobs climbed to the top of the cage.
Jimmy Jacobs 15ft in the air came crashing down on Samoa Joe with a big splash

NO
Somehow Joe kicked out. The crowd were chanting Holy Shit as Jacobs was nearly completely out of it as he crawled to the ropes. He climbed up the ropes again and looked to climb up the cage again but Samoa Joe was following him up. They were once again hammering each other but Jacobs managed to climb higher up the cage but Samoa Joe grabbed Jacobs and delivered a Muscle Buster from 12 ft in the air. Jacobs is dead as Samoa Joe covers

Samoa Joe picks up the win. The referee immediately call officials from the back to look at both men but suddenly out of nowhere Delirious, Super Dragon and Alex Shelley ran threw the crowd. Shelley grabbed the key for the padlock and undid it and threw the ref down and out of the ring then rolled a bloody and battered Jacobs outside the ring and relocked the door. Delirious and Super Dragon were scrambling up the cage while this was happening. Super Dragon was holding a black bag as he came into the ring while Delirious scrambled down the other side. Samoa Joe dazed at what was going on around him after the brutal match looked worried as he looked round the ring to see Majestic surrounding him. Joe went for Shelley but the numbers game was to much as Dragon and Delirious were able to attack Joe. Majestic stamped away at Joe, then picked him up and drove him head first into the steel cage busting him wide open.
The rest of the Crew ran to ringside but were unable to get in the cage as Majestic just kicked the cage if they tried to get in. Alex Shelley picked up the black bag and pulled out some rope from it. Samoa Joe now knocked out was dragged to the top rope by Super Dragon and Alex Shelley as Delirious kept Trent Acid and the Havana Pitbulls at bay. They stood Joe up on the top rope and leaned him on the cage. Alex Shelley tied the rope around Samoa Joes neck and the cage and threw him off the top rope as they were hanging Samoa Joe. Just as that happened Rocky Romero had broken the lock off the cage door and Majestic scrambled over the top rope and away from the Crew and the rest of the officials. There concern wasn’t Majestic however as they quickly cut the rope from the cage as Samoa Joe fell to the mat unconscious as medical staff quickly went on scene as the show ended.
Result - Samoa Joe wins

POSTSHOW
We see Alex Shelley leading Delirious and Super Dragon through the back quickly. Shelley is laughing but walks into Don Callis who is also running:
Don Callis – “What the hell are you doing? You can’t do that, you could have killed him.”
Alex Shelley – “We told you Callis, ban the choke hold or we will ruin the show. The choke isn’t banned yet so we took matters into our own hands by choking him out ourselves.”
Delirious – “EEEEEEEEEEEeee”.
Don Callis – “You don’t make the rules, I make the rules. Your all fined all your pay for the show and I’m putting you in a six man match with Trent Acid and the Havana Pitbulls in Iowa on March 12th in a no disqualification match how do you like that.”
Super Dragon grabs Don Callis and holds him up to the wall by his throat as Shelley gets right in his face
Alex Shelley – “No Don, you don’t run the show, Majestic run the show.”
Dragon lets go of Callis who falls down as Shelley, Delirious and Super Dragon leave the building.
Austin Aries is backstage cutting a promo on Samoa Joe for the March 12th show.
Austin Aries – “Well Samoa Joe it looks like you will be the one I will be taking on for the SWEW Heavyweight Championship. I saw what happened after the cage match and you got beaten up pretty bad. Just as I thought, but it doesn’t matter. Even if you were at 100% you wouldn’t have stopped me taking the title, this just makes it easer. Oh and CM Punk, you are not better than me.”
John ‘OK’ Earl Roberts is backstage with Alex Lovell and Ray Stevens:
Ray Stevens – “Dammit another loss tonight.”
Alex Lovell – “I know we’re like 0-7 now. You said we would start winning if we listened to you, but it’s still the same.”
John ‘OK’ Earl Roberts – “Look, we put a good performance in there, all the people back home in the Caribbean will be proud of us. I assure you stick with me and you will continue to set SWEW on fire. Not like those disrespectful H-Factor guys.”
Alex Lovell – “We don’t have a problem with them; you’re just getting us to fight your battles.”
John ‘OK’ Earl Roberts – “I assure you stick with me and you will start to win, you have another match in SWEW on March 12th and I promise you, with some extra training you will win.”
Ray Stevens – “Fine, but we better start winning soon, I’m getting my assed kick every week.”
We go outside the building where Samoa Joe is put in an ambulance and is driven away at fast speed as the rest of the Crew and other SWEW wrestlers look on as the tape goes to black.
As the tape goes to black we see the full card for the March 12th show in Iowa at the Guthrie Centre entitled Rated 18:

Rage In A Cage
February 19th 2004
Hallom Arena, North Dakota
SWEW return to the North Dakota where we will see one of the biggest cards in SWEW history. We will see the conclusion of the eight month war between Jimmy Jacobs and Samoa Joe as they battle it out inside a 15ft Steel Cage for the SWEW Heavyweight Championship. It promises to be one of the most brutal matches in SWEW history. The Crew, H-Factor and Majestic will all be in full force in North Dakota and with matches such as Styles Ca$h taking on Majestic for the SWEW Tag Team Championship and in a grudge match Alex Shelley facing Trent Acid one thing is for certain. There will be ‘Rage In A Cage’.
SWEW Heavyweight Championship
Steel Cage Match
Samoa Joe© vs. Jimmy Jacobs (w/Becky Bayless)
The history between the two men goes back to the very beginning of SWEW:
Go, Go, Go – July 17th 2004 – Jimmy Jacobs wins a one night tournament to capture the SWEW Heavyweight Championship.
Are You Ready? (to die) – August 8th 2004 – Jimmy Jacobs and Samoa Joe went to a 15 minute time draw when Samoa Joe was 1-0 up in a 2 out of 3 fall Iowa Death Match for the SWEW Heavyweight Championship meaning Jimmy Jacobs retained the SWEW Heavyweight Championship.
SWEW Presents A Party – August 25th 2004 – Samoa Joe along with the Havana Pitbulls brutally attack Jimmy Jacobs after making a successful title defence against Trent Acid in a early view of the Crew.
4th Show Spectacular – September 5th 2004 – Samoa Joe gains his only victory over Jimmy Jacobs in an eight man tag when Jacobs taps out to the choke.
Jacobs vs. Joe II – September 25th 2004 – Jimmy Jacobs retains the SWEW Heavyweight Championship against Samoa Joe after Jacobs hits Samoa Joe with a Shining Wizard.
Ultimate Challenge Cup – December 11th 2004 – In the first round of the Ultimate Challenge Cup Jimmy Jacobs advanced to the semi finals by beating Samoa Joe after hitting the Suicide Solution in a match including Super Dragon earning himself a SWEW Triple Chance in the process.
Awards Evening – December 26th 2004 – In an eight man tag team elimination match Jimmy Jacobs eliminated Samoa Joe after hitting a top rope Ace Crusher onto Samoa Joe.
Mayhem In Minnesota – Night 2 – January 9th 2005 – On his eight defence of the SWEW Heavyweight Championship, Jimmy Jacobs was defeated by leader of Majestic, Alex Shelley and lost the title by tapping out to the Border City Stretch.
Saturday Showdown – January 22nd 2005 – Samoa Joe became the third SWEW Heavyweight Champion as he defeated Alex Shelley in his first title defence when Shelley passed out to Samoa Joes choke.
312 Hours Later – February 6th 2005 – Samoa Joe retained the SWEW Heavyweight Championship over Alex Shelley and Jimmy Jacobs in a three way match when Alex Shelley tapped out to the choke. After the match Jacobs cashed in his SWEW Triple Chance and announced a steel cage match for ‘Rage In A Cage’ for the SWEW Heavyweight Championship.
As you can see the history between the two is long and has been vital to the success of SWEW in its infant year. Now in what surely must be there final battle Samoa Joe will put his SWEW Heavyweight Championship on the line inside a 15ft Steel Cage against Jimmy Jacobs in what could be the most brutal match in SWEW history. Samoa Joe has stated he is finally able to beat his ‘bogey’ man and defeat Jimmy Jacobs and retain the SWEW Heavyweight Championship.
Inside the twisted sick steel structure where the only way to victory is pinfall or submission Samoa Joe has stated he is going to destroy Jimmy Jacobs and leave himself and the Crew on top of SWEW. Jacobs we have heard has been inflicting pain on himself in preparation for the immense amount of pain he is about to receive as he looks to take the SWEW Heavyweight Championship back. Will Samoa Joe finally be able to beat Jimmy Jacobs in straight one-on-one action or in the brutality of the steel cage will Jimmy Jacobs become a two time SWEW Heavyweight Champion? There is only one way to find out.
Grudge Match I
Alex Shelley vs. Trent Acid
While SWEW officials investigate and consider Alex Shelleys ‘Ban The Choke Campaign’ against Samoa Joe. Alex Shelley and the rest of Majestic have decided to give out there own verdict by promising to ruin every show and attack anybody they want to until the hold is banned. We saw the first instance of this at ‘312 Hours Later’ as on the home release of the show Alex Shelley, Delirious and Super Dragon attacked Crew member Trent Acid in the back after the show. Each man was fined $500 for there actions and Commissioner Don Callis has placed Alex Shelley and Trent Acid into a match.
Shelley will be looking to pick up a win after losing his last two matches as he looks to get back into the SWEW Heavyweight Championship picture while Trent Acid is coming off a big win over AJ Styles and a win over Shelley would sky rocket him into some big matches. Incidentally Trent Acid still has AJ Styles SWEW Tag Team Championship belt and has been fined $100 for his failure of return AJ the belt so far and will be fined $100 for every show the belt is not returned but we have heard no news on if the belt will be returned.
SWEW Tag Team Championship
Styles Ca$h vs. Majestic
Delirious and Super Dragon became number one contenders at ‘312 Hours Later’ by beating three other teams in a four team elimination match. Alex Shelley has instructed his men to take the gold from Styles Ca$h on Saturday night and has identified Chris Ca$h has the weak link in there team and knows either man can beat Ca$h. The rumours of a rift between the champions have been denied after Chris Ca$h accidentally helped Trent Acid defeat AJ Styles at ‘312 Hours Later’, Ca$h has said it was a misunderstanding and they are 100% together as they prepare to make there 2nd title defence. We have also found out at www.swew.com that if Trent Acid fails to give him his title back before the show starts, AJ Styles is going to get it back himself. It could be a very busy night for the champions if that is going to happen.
Grudge Match II
Low-Ki vs. Rocky Romero
After a few shows helping out friends Low-Ki has once again gone into his war against the major factions in SWEW, the Crew and Majestic. Low-Ki will go one on one with a man he knows very well, one half of the Havana Pitbulls and Crew member Rocky Romero. This promises to be a brutal, stiff match and one Low-Ki has to win if his threat to rid SWEW of the Crew and Majestic is to be taken seriously. A win for Rocky Romero however will put him in serious contention in singles action.
Six Man Tag Match
Alex Lovell, John ‘OK’ Earl Roberts & Ray Stevens vs. H-Factor
At ‘312 Hours Later’ John ‘OK’ Earl Roberts before beating H-Factor member Bobby Quance went on a rant on how he views H-Factor as spoiled rich kids while he worked hard growing up in the toughest streets of the Caribbean been the baddest Rastafarian on the planet. H-Factor has taken offence to this saying they are just trying to inject a bit of fun into SWEW. Earl Roberts does not see it like that and takes offence to this and calls it a lack of respect. Needing partners to take on H-Factor, Earl Roberts has picked SWEW Training Camp graduates Alex Lovell and Ray Stevens of Wasted Talent to partner him.
This is a surprising move seeing neither of them have picked up a win in SWEW yet in any form, but Earl Roberts has guaranteed to his ‘young boys’ that they will now turn the corner now they have aligned with him. Further matches between the six men have been signed up as on March 12th in Iowa, Teddy Hart will take on John ‘OK’ Earl Roberts and Wasted Talent will take on Bobby Quance and Jack Evans in tag action with a huge stipulation apparently to be added to the tag match. Whoever wins the six way at ‘Rage In A Cage’ will have a lot of confidence going into Iowa.
Four Way Survival Match
Austin Aries vs. Jimmy Rave vs. Ricky Reyes vs. Spanky
This match is very important for all four men. Austin Aries who has a guaranteed SWEW Heavyweight Championship shot on March 12th after cashing in his SWEW Triple Chance knowing whoever is champion after the steel cage match on Saturday will not be 100% for there match is looking to build on his winning pinfall from the Dream Partner Match at ‘312 Hours Later’ over his main rival and one opponent in this match Spanky as he goes for the SWEW Heavyweight Championship on the next show. Jimmy Rave after finally stringing some wins together on the lower card will be looking to continue his run by getting another victory and getting higher up the card.
Since losing the SWEW Tag Team Championship the Havana Pitbulls have found victories hard to come by. Ricky Reyes knows coming out with a victory will give SWEW officials a chance to grant them a SWEW Tag Team Championship shot again. Spanky has finally lost his cool in SWEW and Austin Aries is the man who has brought it out of him. Aries has attacked Spanky, taken his places in matches and finally beat Spanky in the Dream Partner match at the last show. Spanky is looking to get revenge on Aries by pinning him this Saturday. Four guys, four different reasons to win a match, anything could happen.
Fly or Die Match
Danny Daniels vs. Matt Sydal (w/Daizee Haze)
Since losing his mentor and partner Kid Kash, Danny Daniels has failed to do anything of note in SWEW while Matt Sydal has failed to get on any run in SWEW despite been on a lot of shows. Whoever loses this match will no longer be booked by SWEW in the future while the winner will live to fight another day. It is important for both men to win as they both want to keep there place on the SWEW roster.
Tickets are still available on the door for the party at $15 or through www.swew.com. We are at the Hallom Arena on February 19h as we return to North Dakota. We hope you are there as we present a stacked card as the eight month war between Samoa Joe and Jimmy Jacobs will come to an end as Samoa Joe defends the SWEW Heavyweight Championship against Jimmy Jacobs in a 15ft Steel Cage. Other matches include Alex Shelley taking on Trent Acid, Styles Ca$h defending the SWEW Tag Team Championship against Majestic and Low-Ki will take on Rocky Romero. We hope you don’t miss this.

SWEW NEWS
February 2005
Alex Shelley has lodged an official complaint to SWEW officials about Samoa Joe’s use of the choke hold as a legitimate submission hold. Current SWEW Heavyweight Champion Samoa Joe has defeated Alex Shelley at both ‘Saturday Showdown’ and ‘312 Hours Later’ after applying the choke hold but Alex Shelley has claimed the choke is an illegal hold and has started the ‘Ban The Choke Campaign’ in an attempt to get the hold barred from matches.
Until SWEW officials bar the hold Alex Shelley has promised that he and the rest of Majestic are going to ruin every single show and take out as many men as possible until SWEW officials react. We saw the first instance of this on the home release of ‘312 Hours Later’ where Majestic brutally attacked Crew member Trent Acid while walking in the back after the show. As punishment Alex Shelley has been placed in a match with Trent Acid at ‘Rage In A Cage’ and Alex Shelley, Delirious and Super Dragon have all been fined $500 each for there part on the attack on Trent Acid.
They are not the only three people to be fined as Trent Acid himself has been fined $250 for his actions of taking AJ Styles SWEW Tag Team Championship belt at ‘Saturday Showdown’ and his failure to give AJ Styles back the belt at ‘312 Hours Later’ and for every further show that the belt is not returned to AJ Styles a further $100 will be taken from Trent Acid. Trent Acid still banged up from Majestics attack is happy to accept the $100 hits and is looking forward to getting some revenge for the Crew as he takes on Alex Shelley.
Preparations for the main event at ‘Rage In The Cage’ are coming along nicely as leader of the Crew and SWEW Heavyweight Champion Samoa Joe defends against Jimmy Jacobs in a 15ft Steel Cage. Jacobs feels escaping three matches with Samoa Joe with either a win or a draw has given him the edge over Samoa Joe despite Samoa Joe dominating him in every physical form, strength and size. Samoa Joe can’t believe Jacobs wanted to go inside a Steel Cage for the match and Joe promises he is going to be so strong against Jacobs he is going to brutalize him by and I quote ‘messing him up all over the steel’.
Becky Bayless has revealed that Jacobs wanted the cage match so he could keep people out of the ring in what possibly could be his last SWEW Heavyweight Championship. With 15ft of steel cage surrounding Joe and Jacobs it will be hard for the rest of the Crew, Majestic or anyone else to interfere and Jacobs is preparing for a war inside the cage and has been practising dealing with pain apparently by getting his head repeatedly rammed into things at his training camp. We are not sure what kind of mind Jacobs will be in on February 19th.
H-Factor have phoned SWEW officials and told them that they want a whole series of matches against John ‘Ok’ Earl Roberts and his ‘young boys’ Alex Lovell and Ray Stevens of Wasted Talent. So after the six way on February 19th on the 12th March in Iowa Teddy Hart will take on John ‘OK’ Earl Roberts and Jack Evans and Bobby Quance will team up to face Wasted Talent. Teddy Hart has said him Quance and Evans are just looking to inject a bit of fun into SWEW and Earl Roberts as no right to tell him what to do or not. Things between the two factions look like they are getting heated.
Coming off his huge pinfall over Spanky in the Dream Partner match at ‘312 Hours Later’ Austin Aries has cashed in his SWEW Triple Chance to face whomever is SWEW Heavyweight Champion on the 12th March in Iowa. Aries has stated that both Jimmy Jacobs and Samoa Joe will be so beaten up after the steel cage match at ‘Rage In A Cage’ that it won’t matter who champion is he will just be able to beat up the broken body and take the gold home. Aries has brushed off any problems with CM Punk as a misunderstanding after the duo got into a argument after there win over Spanky & Low-Ki in the Dream Partner match over who should have taken the pin after both men hit there finisher on Spanky.
Spanky is looking to get a little revenge on Aries in the four way at ‘Rage In A Cage’ which also includes Jimmy Rave and member of the Crew, Ricky Reyes. Spanky has said he would prefer a straight one-on-one match with Aries but is just happy to get in the ring with him again after what Aries has done to Spanky so far in 2005. Spankys partner Low-Ki is restarting is war with the Crew and Majestic starting with a singles match with Crew member, Rocky Romero at ‘Rage In A Cage’. The duo know each other very well and it promises to be a hard hitting match.
Tickets for ‘Rage In A Cage’ are only $15 on the door at the Hallom Arena, North Dakota or through www.SWEW.com. A full preview for the show will be up at the website in a few days and we hope you can come to the show in what promises to be an awesome event.

312 Hours Later
6/2/2005
James Smith Memorial Arena, South Dakota
Attendance: 1816
Home Release Version
Commentator: Don Callis & Eric Garguilo
PRESHOW
The Crew in its entirety are backstage. Trent Acid looks more serious than ever as the new SWEW Heavyweight Champion Samoa Joe starts talking for them. Joe says it took him a long time to get the SWEW Heavyweight Championship. Just like Alex Shelley who won the title only to lose it 312 hours later. This won’t happen to Samoa Joe as he is going to have a long reign. Joe tells Alex Shelley to go home and take the rest of Majestic now; they aren’t taking the Crew off the top anytime soon. He then turns his attention on to his bogey man, Jimmy Jacobs. He tells Jacobs it doesn’t matter how many times he had beaten him, that’s in the past and now THE CHAMP IS HERE and it will take more than furry boots and stupid gimmicks to get the title off him.
Rocky Romero then steps up for the Pitbulls as he warns Styles Ca$h they will become number one contenders for the SWEW Tag Team Championship tonight and get the rematch they deserve. Trent Acid then comes back into shot and as they are speaking about the SWEW Tag Team Championship, Trent Acid starts to pose with AJ Styles SWEW Tag Team Championship belt that he stole off him at the last show. Trent still in a more serious state of mind than usual says he needed to prove something not only to the rest of the Crew, but to himself. He needed to prove he can hang with the big boys of the wrestling world. He says he felt jealous of AJ Styles, he has everything he wants, main event places, title matches whenever he wants. Tonight Trent Acid however is going to bring AJs SWEW Tag Title down to the ring with him and pose with it as if it is own. Not because he won the title, but because he can. Trent tells AJ he has been dreaming of the night that they would finally meet in the ring, the night Trent Acid becomes a star. Samoa Joe looks up at Trent Acid and says that’s what I’m talking about as we cut to the start of the show.
SHOW
Chris Ca$h d. Alex Lovell (w/Ray Stevens)
Two of the youngest members of the SWEW roster opened up the show where we had about 1800 in attendance as one half of the SWEW Tag Team Champions Chris Ca$h took on Alex Lovell in singles action. Ray Stevens, Lovell’s tag team partner was at ringside with Lovell giving him support but it was no help as Chris Ca$h was able to come away with the win. Lovell came close on a few occasions to getting a win, and when he hooked Ca$h in a STF it looked like he was going to tap but Ca$h rolled through and got to the ropes. The finish came when a bit of Lovell’s inexperience came into play (it is only his third match) as after he hit a big dropkick on Ca$h he never went for the cover. Lovell climbed the ropes and set up for a frogsplash but Ca$h was up in time and ran up the ropes and caught Alex Lovell with a big Hurricanerana and covered for the three.
After the match, as Chris Ca$h celebrated, Trent Acid ran down the aisle and started to attack Ca$h from behind. Acid knocked Ca$h down and measured him up for a Yakuza Kick and hit it. Trent went to the outside to pick Ca$hs SWEW Tag Championship belt up and tried to steal it. He would have gotten away with it if it to if it wasn’t for that pesky AJ Styles as he came down the aisle and cut off Trent Acid. Trent tried to hit AJ with the belt but AJ ducked and hammered Acid down who dropped the belt. AJ picked it up and threatened to hit Acid but Trent bailed into the back. AJ went back to the ring and helped his partner up and gave him back his title. The duo went to the back with a small ‘Styles Ca$h’ chant going. Wasted Talent had gone to the back while this had been going on.
Result - Chris Ca$h wins
(8:39) **1/2
Just before his match with Bobby Quance, the baddest Rastafarian on the planet John ‘OK’ Earl Roberts had a few words to say about H-Factor. He calls them all a bunch of spoiled rich kids who need some respect beaten into them. Earl Roberts says he is the hardest working wrestler in the world today and he will show it by beating respect into ever single member of the H-Factor.
John ‘OK’ Earl Roberts d. Bobby Quance
Quance not happy with what Earl Roberts had just said rushed to the ring and started like a house of fire on Earl Roberts with rights and lefts to Earl Roberts, then a big dropkick sent him to the outside. Unfortunately Quance was unable to continue his 100% win record in SWEW as Earl Roberts bounced back from his loss to Low-Ki at the last show to pick up a good win. After 11 minutes of back and forth action, Quance looked to go for the SSP on Earl Roberts after hitting a big dropsault on Roberts. However when Quance went for the SSP, Roberts moved out of the way and Quance crashed to the floor. Earl Roberts measured him up and bounced off the ropes with a big lariat, and Earl Roberts covered and that was enough for the 3. Roberts got a lot of boos as he went to the back but he seemed happy to pick up the win.
Result - John 'OK' Earl Roberts wins
(12:07) **3/4
Number #1 Contendership Match For The SWEW Tag Team Championship
Majestic d. H-Factor of Jack Evans & Teddy Hart & The Havana Pitbulls & The SAT
Majestic of Super Dragon and Delirious became number one contenders to Styles Ca$hs SWEW Tag Team Championship and will get a shot on February 19th back in North Dakota. In a great 20 minute match all four teams looked to become number one contenders. The first elimination were the SAT as Rocky Romero was able to hit Joel Maximo with a big superkick after Super Dragon had knocked him senseless with a big brainbuster. Super Dragon was the star of the match picking up the final two pinfalls. Surprisingly it was the Havana Pitbulls who were eliminated next as Jack Evans had just made an insane dive to the outside onto Delirious, Ricky Reyes and Teddy Hart. Rocky Romero looked like he was about to try a plancha but was unaware of Super Dragon behind him who hooked Romero and delivered a big Dragon Suplex onto Romero and held on for the three.
Teddy Hart had thought he had picked up the three count for his team when he hit the Hart Attack onto Delirious and covered but Super Dragon just broke it up. The finish came when Evans set Delirious up for the 630, but Super Dragon managed to cut him off from behind. Delirious got up and hit a tope to Teddy Hart on the outside taking them both out of the finish of the match which saw Dragon hit a huge Psycho Driver off the top rope which was enough to win the match and probably several matches as Evans was out of it. The crowd chanted holy shit as the ref pinned for the three. This was a good win for Majestic who beat three top teams in the same match and gave Majestic as a whole a boost over the Crew and H-Factor.
Result - Majestic win
(20:59) ***3/4
Jimmy Rave d. Ray Stevens (w/Alex Lovell)
Ray Stevens in his first singles match in his history at this level had an impressive showing but like his partner at the last show was unable to get the victory as a member of Wasted Talent lost once again. Stevens, who wrestles a very similar style to his trainer Alex Shelley, tried to keep Rave on the mat a lot of the time but was unable to do so as Rave was able to hook in the tilt-a-whirl crossface for victory as Stevens picked up the win. Rave will now be looking to build up to the future after two wins in a row. Stevens showed some nice moves and looked like he may pick up the win after locking in the Border City Stretch on Rave but he wasn’t able to hold it as Rave elbowed out of it. Lovell and Steven looked dejected as they went to the back as collectively they have lost there first five matches in a row.
Result - Jimmy Rave wins
(10:08) **3/4
Trent Acid d. AJ Styles
In a match not for a championship, but for pride AJ Styles and Trent Acid produced a brilliant match which left the fans wanting more. Acid came to the ring with AJ Styles SWEW Tag Team Championship around his waist as he came to the ring first, he did his usual get money off the fans thing while AJ Styles came down with an intense look on his face. AJ shouted at Acid to give him back his title but Acid refused and threw the title to the outside of the ring as the match got underway. Both men went back and forth for 18 minutes as they tried to pick up the pinfall. Acid came close with a tornado DDT after 5 minutes and 5 minutes later nearly got counted out when AJ hit a big somersault plancha onto Acid and went back into the ring but Acid got back in at 9. With both men coming close to victory it looked like neither man was going to able to pick up a victory after 15 minutes gone. However when AJ Styles went for a discus lariat Trent Acid ducked and AJ span around and Trent pushed AJ into the referee Paul Turner knocking Turner down. AJ hit his back flip kick on Acid and both men plus the referee were down.
With everyone on the mat Chris Ca$h runs down the aisle. He picks up AJs tag title belt and throws it to AJ Styles. However Trent Acid picks up the belt before AJ and hammers AJ in the head with it. Ca$h comes up on the apron but Acid hammers him with the title and throws it out. Acid revives the referee and sets up AJ who is out of his feet and smashes AJ with a Yakuza Kick and covers for the three. Trent Acid quickly leaves the ring area with AJ Styles SWEW Tag Team Championship belt which he retrieved from the floor. AJ looks pissed when he comes to as Ca$h looks like he is apologizing. AJ calms down and seems to be cool with Ca$h as they go to the back together.
Result - Trent Acid wins
(20:46) ****1/4
Dream Partner Match
Austin Aries & CM Punk vs. Low-Ki & Spanky
First out to the ring was CM Punk who was making his return to SWEW after having his only appearance before at the Ultimate Challenge Cup last year. A lot of fans were here to see Punk with the ‘x’s been thrown up in the air. Austin Aries was out next to a few boos. Spanky and Low-Ki came out to a nice reception. Spanky and Austin went face-to-face straight away but there respective partners pulled them away from each other and they were the ones to start, as the dream partner match gets underway.
Low-Ki and CM Punk grapple but neither man could get advantage. Austin wants in and is tagged in. A right hand from Aries puts Low-Ki down and he keeps him there with a modified arm-bar. Low-Ki hits Aries with a flurry of elbows to get out of it. Aries is pushed into the corner and Low-Ki goes for the Tidal Crush but Aries rolls out of the way and tags in CM Punk. Spanky is tagged into the match for the first time. Spanky and Punk grapple but Punk overpowers Spanky and takes him to the mat. Punk wares Spanky down with a headlock then he stands up and hits a running bulldog. CM Punk hit a flurry of chops to Spanky as they looked to cut Spanky off from his partner. Punk hit a stunted suplex on Spanky covered and got two. Punk was tagged in and Aries sprang over the ropes and hit Spanky in the chest while Punk held Spanky up. Aries and Spanky finally in the ring together and Aries looked to make the most of it. Aries stamped away rabidly on Spanky and set up for the Pendulum Elbow and hit it. That got a two count as Aries picked Spanky up and tossed him to the outside.
CM Punk joined Spanky on the outside as Aries blocked Low-Ki from getting into the ring. Punk rammed Spanky into the guardrail then rolled him back into the ring. Spanky seemed to be favouring his back and Aries picked up on that and turned Spanky over and hit a second pendulum elbow right into his spine.

NO
Spanky kicked out but looked in a bad way as Punk was tagged in. Punk dug his knee into Spankys back and pulled back on his arms and Spanky screamed in pain. Punk shouted some smack at Low-Ki calling him a midget ninja and Low-Ki tried to come in but the ref cut him off and Aries came in and pulled on Spankys legs hurting him further as Punk still held on. When the ref turned round Aries was back on the apron as Punk still held onto Spanky. Spanky kept screaming no as the fans started to get behind him. Spanky built off that and started to come to his feet, he managed it and started to move to Low-Ki but Punk grabbed Spankys hair and yanked him to the ground. Punk laughed as he dragged Spanky into the corner and tagged Aries in. Aries hit a snap suplex on Spanky and signalled for another pendulum elbow. Aries came down and missed as Spanky rolled out of the way. Spanky crawled over to Low-Ki; Aries followed but was unable to stop as Low-Ki got into the match.
Low-Ki hit a flurry of punches on Aries, and then exploded by chopping the fuck out of Aries who crashed to the mat. Punk came in but Low-Ki saw him and nailed him with a stiff kick to his ribs. Punk wailed in agony as he fell into the corner and Low-Ki hit him with the Tidal Crush. Aries tried to sneak up behind Low-Ki but was chopped again and Low-Ki lifted Aries up and hit him with the Ki-Krusher:

NO
Punk just broke up the count it was surely over otherwise. Punk knocked Low-Ki down with a modified DDT. All four men were down as things slowly were coming back to normal. Low-Ki was up first and he hit Aries with two stiff Mongolian chops as he was getting up. Low-Ki covered and got two. Spanky was in huge pain on the ring apron holding his back. Low-Ki hit Aries with a big exploder suplex but Aries kicked out again. Low-Ki signalled for the Ki-Krusher and lifted Aries up but Aries wriggled out of it and hit Low-Ki with a Ki-Krusher of his own. Both men were down but Aries slowly crawled over to Low-Ki and draped a hand over him

NO
Low-Ki just got a shoulder up. Both men were slowly up and started to hit each other with weak chops but it was enough to knock each other down. Both men crawled to there corners. Punk was tagged in, and Spanky was tagged in. Spanky ducked a Punk clothesline and bounced off the ropes and hit a crossbody on Punk. Spanky rolled off and hit a dropkick to Punk and covered for two. Spanky went to the top rope and scored with a big dropkick on Punk but landed on his already injured back. Aries was up and knocked Low-Ki to the outside of the ring as the ref has lost all control of the match again as he doesn’t know who is now legal. A right hand from Aries put Spanky down. CM Punk was up and signalled for Aries to take Spanky up top. Punk climbed the ropes and Aries lifted Spanky into position for the Pepsi Plunge. Punk took a while to get Spanky hooked which was enough for Low-Ki to join them on the top rope from the outside, Spanky leaped backwards on Aries while Low-Ki delivered a top rope Ace Crusher to CM Punk. All four men were on the ground. Aries put an arm over Spanky for two, then Low-Ki over Punk but got a two.
All four men were slowly up. A suplex by Aries was countered by Spanky, who slipped out of the back in mid-move and hit a reverse DDT and covered

NO
Punk broke it up. Low-Ki punched CM Punk in the face but Punk thought back but this just got Low-Ki even more heated and he exploded with a series of kicks and chops as the crowd were going insane. Aries sees this and jumps on Low-Ki as they both fall to the ground on the outside. Punk and Spanky battle in the ring again. Punk takes Spanky down with a side Russian leg sweep while Aries and Low-Ki are on the outside. Aries reverses an irish whip attempt and Low-Ki absolutely crushes a guard railing and he is out of it. Meanwhile in the ring, Punk and Spanky are trading blows, Punk goes for a big roundhouse but misses and Spanky hooks Punks head and goes for the Sliced Bread #2. Spanky climbs the ropes but his back goes out on him and Punk dumps him on the ropes. Punk climbs the ropes and hits the Pepsi Plunge on Spanky but he lands too far for the instant cover. Aries climbs the adjacent ropes from the outside and immediately hits the 450 Splash on Spanky.

That was enough to get the pin. Aries is slowly up first and he rolls Spanky out of the ring who is taken to the back by Low-Ki after Aries shouts at the duo. Aries looks really happy as CM Punk gets up and pushes Aries? Punk shouts to Aries he had the cover but Austin just brushes Punk off and leaves the ring with his hands aloft. The crowd clapped Punk as he stood in the ring, before leaving to the back.
Result - Austin Aries and CM Punk win
(25:30) ****1/2
Don Callis comes out and thanks Austin Aries, CM Punk, Low-Ki and Spanky for the match he just witnessed. The crowd clap in agreement as Callis announces two further shows, one back in Minnesota at the Skybox Arena on the 26th March and a debut show in Nebraska at the Outback Gym on May 14th. Callis announces that the next show to be held in North Dakota on the 19th February, so far has Styles Ca$h defending the SWEW Tag Team Championship against number one contenders Majestic. In matches just signed Low-Ki will take on Rocky Romero as he continues his war with the Crew and Austin Aries will once again take on Spanky but this time with Ricky Reyes and Jimmy Rave as other opponents in a four way matchup. Callis thanks the fans for coming and he hopes they can come again in the future to SWEW.
SWEW Heavyweight Championship
One Fall To A Finish
Samoa Joe© d. Alex Shelley &. Jimmy Jacobs (w/Becky Bayless)
In an action packed main event Samoa Joe ensured his title reign lasted longer than the 312 hours Alex Shelley’s lasted by retaining his title in convincing style. Jacobs in his first match back I SWEW since losing the title got a hug ovation with HUSS screaming round the arena; Shelley was down next to a mixture of cheers and boos while Joe got a nice reception as he came down. After a little teamwork on Jacobs in the early going from Shelley and Joe, things dissented into mayhem with near falls all through the match from each man.
Noticeable spots include Joe doing a tope through the ropes crushing Jacobs and Shelley on the outside. Shelley locking in the Border City Stretch on Jacobs but as it looked like Jacobs was about to tap Shelley let go knowing the only way he could get the title is by beating Joe. Jacobs thought he had the title won in the twelfth minute when he hit the Contra Code on Joe but Shelley broke the count up at a long two. The finish came when Jacobs was on the ring apron, Shelley had him in a grapple with Joe on the ring floor. Both men teased suplexs for around 30 second, but Samoa Joe got up and charged into both men sending Jacobs crashing to the outside. Shelley was dazed and Joe locked in the choke from behind and fell to the mat and Shelley had no option but to tap as Joe retained the title.
Result - Samoa Joe wins
(15:53) ***1/4
As Samoa Joe celebrated in the ring, Alex Shelley rolled out of the ring and went to the back. Becky Bayless helped Jimmy Jacobs up on the outside of the ring. Jacobs picked up a mic and rolled into a ring. Joe looked at Jacobs as he began to speak. HUSS. Jacobs says he respects Joe as a champion, but Jacobs knows that on three occasions in the past he has beaten Joe one way or another, so he is cashing in his SWEW Triple Chance to have one final match with Samoa Joe, INSIDE A 15FT STEEL CAGE on February 19th in North Dakota if Samoa Joe accepts HUSS. Jacobs extends his hand to Samoa Joe, and Joe shakes and we have our main event for the next show. The crowd have duelling Joe and Jacobs chants as we finish off the show.
POSTSHOW
Backstage we are in a corridor and Wasted Talent of Alex Lovell and Ray Stevens are talking. They both look pretty banged up as they are complaining to each other on how they keep losing matches. Suddenly John ‘OK’ Earl Roberts comes round the corner and addresses Wasted Talent. He calls them ‘young boys’ as he tells them that he has a 6-man tag against H-Factor on February 19th and he needs two partners that will show him respect as he looks to beat respect into H-Factor. Wasted Talent seem very happy that they are even noticed as they accept Earl Roberts’s invitation to be on his team against H-Factor. Earl Roberts tells them if they stay with him, they will start to win matches.
We suddenly flash to Trent Acid who looks knocked out on the floor with lots of men stamping on him. We pan the camera out and we see it was Majestic of Alex Shelley, Delirious and Super Dragon standing over him as we go to black.
As the tape goes to black we are shown an early card for the February 19th show in North Dakota entitled Rage In A Cage:

312 Hours Later
February 6th 2005
James Smith Memorial Arena, South Dakota
On January 9th at Mayhem in Minnesota Night Two, Alex Shelley ended his six month quest to become SWEW Heavyweight Champion as he beat Jimmy Jacobs to become champion. On January 22nd at Saturday Showdown just 312 Hours Later he lost that title to Samoa Joe in an epic matchup. Now the only three holders of the SWEW Heavyweight Championship will meet in a huge triple threat main event with the belt on the line. We will also see the return of the Straight Edge Hero CM Punk as he returns to SWEW to be Austin Aries dream partner to face Spanky with partner Low-Ki. We will also decide a number one contender for Styles Ca$hs SWEW Tag Team Championship as H-Factor, Majestic, The Havana Pitbulls and The SAT battle it out and we will finally have AJ Styles taking on Trent Acid in a match that has been building for months. Anything can and will happen in South Dakota this Sunday night as Alex Shelley found out that in even 312 hours, your life can be turned around.
SWEW Heavyweight Championship
One Fall To A Finish
Samoa Joe© vs. Alex Shelley vs. Jimmy Jacobs (w/Becky Bayless)
In the 8 months since SWEW has been formed three men have become the staple of SWEW shows, three men have risen to the top of SWEW and become champion and these three men will compete for two things, the SWEW Heavyweight Championship, pride and to be the icon of SWEW. Well that was three things but the last two aren’t real things so it counts as one.
Samoa Joe finally achieved his dream of taking his Crew to the top of SWEW as he defeated Alex Shelley at Saturday Showdown to knock Majestic off the top of SWEW and take the SWEW Heavyweight Championship. Samoa Joe has noted that Alex Shelley held the title for less than two weeks and is been very cautious as he steps into the ring to make his first title defence, especially since the man Joe fears the most in SWEW, Jimmy Jacobs. Jacobs despite been a lot smaller and weaker than Samoa Joe had escaped two title defences against Samoa Joe in his six month reign as champion. Joe is wary of Jacobs taking the title again away from him again as Jacobs returns to SWEW for the first time since he lost the title to Alex Shelley at Mayhem in Minnesota Night Two and Jacobs is looking to get the title back in his return to SWEW and knows he can get the job done against Joe.
Alex Shelley and Majestic are furious that Shelley’s title reign only lasted 13 days or 312 hours and Shelley is looking for instant retribution. Shelley is now fully focused on Samoa Joe and the rest of the Crew as the Majestic vs. the Crew feud starts to heat up and Alex Shelley is looking to take his title back straight away from Joe. Shelley knows he has Jacobs number defeating him several times in the past few months and he won the Ultimate Challenge Cup in December defeating opponents such as AJ Styles and American Dragon but will be able to beat the big Samoan who has beaten him twice in the last three shows? The rules of the match are simple. If Samoa Joe pins an opponent he retain the SWEW Heavyweight Championship. Samoa Joe can only lose the SWEW Heavyweight Championship if he is pinned by Alex Shelley or Jimmy Jacobs. If Alex Shelley or Jimmy Jacobs pin each other they will not become SWEW Heavyweight Championship but will be guaranteed a one on one title shot against Samoa Joe at the first opportunity available. With so much at stake this match will show who is truly number one in SWEW.
Dream Partner Match
Austin Aries & CM Punk vs. Low-Ki & Spanky
CM Punk makes his first return to SWEW since the Ultimate Challenge Cup last year as he has agreed to be Austin Aries dream partner in his war with Spanky who has picked Low-Ki to be his dream partner. The problems between Aries and Spanky started when Aries picked Spanky as the man he had to beat to get to the top of SWEW. However when Spanky defeated Austin Aries at Mayhem in Minnesota Night Two Aries snapped and hospitalized Spanky by throwing him threw a table. To rub the salt into the wounds further Aries went on to replace Spanky in the SWEW Triple Chance match at Saturday Showdown and Aries went on to win this getting him a second title shot at the SWEW Heavyweight Championship. Spanky is reportedly furious with this as he is yet to get a SWEW Heavyweight Championship shot despite been a famous wrestler in Japan. Aries challenged Spanky to a rematch to take place on Sunday but Don Callis made it a tag match as he wants to hold of a rematch between the two men. Callis made the match a Dream Partner match and the two men could not have picked better partners.
Low-Ki who has teamed in the past with Spanky is looking to help his friend get revenge on Aries before going back to ridding SWEW of the Crew and Majestic. CM Punk who reached the semi final of the Ultimate Challenge Cup and has a SWEW Triple Chance is a world class wrestler and Aries has picked well as he looks to make a bigger name for himself in SWEW. We are still not sure if CM Punk is ever going to cash in his SWEW Triple Chance for a title shot. We have contacted Punk several times since he has won but he has refused to sign for any title match so we were quite surprised that Punk has agreed to be Aries partner. This match is promising to be a classic as four of the best and biggest names in the world will be in the ring at the same time as Austin Aries and Spanky continue there war.
AJ Styles vs. Trent Acid
Tensions between AJ Styles and Trent Acid are been building ever since AJ Styles debuted at the 4th Show Spectacular. The duo have traded tag match wins over each other during the past six months without meeting in singles action yet, until now. Things came to a head at Saturday Showdown after Trent Acid lost in a tag match against H-Factor with fellow Crew member Ricky Reyes. Trent Acid’s leader Samoa Joe blamed Acid for the loss and said he hasn’t given the Crew anything positive in the last few months and it has to change soon.
It changed alright as Acid targeted the one man he hates enough in SWEW AJ Styles. As Styles Ca$h retained the SWEW Tag Team Championship for the first time against the SAT, Trent Acid attacked AJ Styles and stole his tag title belt. Commissioner Don Callis booked the match to take place on Sunday and it promises to be a humdinger. AJ Styles is astonished at the disrespect that Trent Acid has shown to the SWEW Tag Team Championship and has told SWEW officials that he is going to beat Acid, take the title back and beat some respect into him. A winner for Trent Acid over AJ Styles will surely put Trent back into Samoa Joe’s good book as the Crew look to make themselves dominate in SWEW again.
Number #1 Contendership Match For The SWEW Tag Team Championship
H-Factor of Jack Evans & Teddy Hart vs. Majestic vs. The Havana Pitbulls vs. The SAT
With no clear contenders for Styles Ca$hs SWEW Tag Team Championship commissioner Don Callis has decided to make a four team elimination match to get a number one contender. The four teams all have a lot to prove. Former champions the Havana Pitbulls will be looking to get a rematch for the title they lost. Alex Shelley has committed Delirious and Super Dragon to be a full time tag team and he has given them the moniker of there stable name Majestic as there tag name. Delirious and Super Dragon will not want to let Shelley down. After a few disappointing results the SAT will look to get yet another title shot after losing to Styles Ca$h at Saturday Showdown. H-Factor members Jack Evans and Teddy Hart will be looking to maybe upset the odds by getting a shot at the titles. Evans and Hart have teamed many times together all round the world and despite not wanting to be a tag team in SWEW they certainly have the skills to win the match. Whatever happens, we are sure we will have a number one contender for the SWEW Tag Team Championship. Incidentally this will be the first match where members of the Crew, Majestic and H-Factor will be in the same ring.
Alex Lovell vs. Chris Ca$h
With no tag title defence to make and his partner already in a singles match, one half of the SWEW Tag Team champions Chris Ca$h will be back in singles action as he takes on SWEW Training Camp graduate Alex Lovell. At Saturday Showdown, Lovell lost but was impressive against Jimmy Rave and will be looking to pick up his first win in SWEW. The future of SWEW will be battling it out here. Chris Ca$h has already proved himself but will Lovell be able to?
Jimmy Rave vs. Ray Stevens
Stevens tag partner as Wasted Talent, Alex Lovell, lost against Jimmy Rave at Saturday Showdown. At ringside mid match Stevens and Rave got into an argument while the match was going on which nearly cost Rave the match. Stevens feels he can do better than his partner Lovell did against Rave and beat Rave while Rave wants to put the young graduate in his place by picking up a win. Again if Rave lost to someone who is only having his second match, like last month his future in SWEW must be on the line.
Bobby Quance vs. John ‘OK’ Earl Roberts
After his loss to Low-Ki at Saturday Showdown, John ‘OK’ Earl Roberts is looking to get back on track by picking up a win for the people of the Caribbean. The baddest Rastafarian on the planet however will have to take on H-Factor member Bobby Quance who has a 100% record in SWEW so far. Both men have had a good 2005 so far and both will want to keep this momentum going as we move into the summer months.
Tickets are still available on the door for the party at $15 or through www.swew.com. We are at the James Smith Memorial Arena on February 6th as we return to South Dakota. We hope you are there as we present a stacked as in a huge main event Samoa Joe defends the SWEW Heavyweight Championship for the first time against Alex Shelley & Jimmy Jacobs. CM Punk returns to SWEW to be Austin Aries dream tag team partner against Spanky and dream partner Low-Ki. AJ Styles and Trent Acid will finally battle in one on one action plus much more and we hope you can be there.

Looking in a even better mood however is out new SWEW Heavyweight Champion Alex Shelley.

Tonight Shelley is 100% focused on Joe and it isn’t going to be nice.
SHOW
H-Factor of Bobby Quance & Jack Evans d. The Crew of Trent Acid and Ricky Reyes
H-Factor made a huge mark on there full debut as Bobby Quance and Jack Evans defeated the makeshift Crew team of Ricky Reyes and Trent Acid. Coming to the ring you could see the lack of communication between Reyes and Acid as Acid danced to the ring and mingled with the crowd while Reyes was very busy like in marching straight to the ring. Despite this Acid and Reyes dominated in the early part of the match and came close to pinfalls over Evans on several occasions. However when Acid went for a top rope moonsault Evans moved out of the way and was able to tag in Bobby Quance. The fresh Bobby Quance was able to take out Reyes who had come in the ring and knocked him to the outside. Evans flew over the top with an insane twisting moonsault to the outside. Quance hit a big bulldog on Acid and climbed to the top rope and delivered a big Shooting Star Press on Trent Acid and covered for the 3.
After the match H-Factor went to the back looking happy with there win. Trent Acid and Ricky Reyes started arguing into Samoa Joe the leader of the Crews music hit and him and Romero came down to the ring. Samoa Joe complains at Reyes and Acid and asks why they just lost to some small cruiserweights. He tells Trent Acid that lately all he has been doing is losing. He says the Pitbulls had the SWEW Tag Team Champions, he has a SWEW Heavyweight Championship shot tonight but what is Trent doing to help the Crew. Joe leaves with leaving an ultimatum to Trent Acid. Do something positive for the Crew and soon, or he is out of the Crew. Reyes, Joe and Romero leave the ring leaving Acid trailing behind.
Result – H-Factor of Bobby Quance & Jack Evans win
(12:09) **3/4
Jimmy Rave d. Alex Lovell (w/Ray Stevens)
Alex Lovell got to take part in his first singles match in SWEW while Jimmy Rave was desperate not to lose again, especially to someone in his second ever match. Lovell’s partner Ray Stevens was with ringside at him and Lovell looked to have picked up a shock victory when Rave and Stevens got into an argument from behind Lovell sprang up on Rave and hit a sick reverse hurricanrana landing Rave on the top of his head. Lovell covered and got a two. Rave was able to pick up the win when Lovell took to the top rope he leaped attempting a crossbody but Rave managed to move into position to hook in the crossface on Lovell in the middle of the ring. Lovell was unable to get out and Rave picked up an actual win in SWEW.
Result - Jimmy Rave wins
(8:43) **1/2
As John ‘OK’ Earl Roberts came down to the ring before his big match with Low-Ki he gets on the mic. He dedicates his upcoming win to all his fans and says Low-Ki will be sacrificed for all the people from the Caribbean. Just as Earl Roberts said that Low-Ki’s music hit and he looked pissed as he came to the ring.
Low-Ki d. John ‘OK’ Earl Roberts
Fans were chanting ‘Fuck him up Low-Ki’ as Low-Ki stalked Earl Roberts and came at him with some big kicks. Earl Roberts fled to the outside as Low-Ki waited for his return. Roberts came slowly into the ring and the slightly bigger man was able to go low on Low-Ki to take advantage of the match. Roberts continually stamped on Low-Ki and tried keeping him on the floor as best he can. Roberts nearly made true his big promise to beat Low-Ki as Roberts came off the top rope with a big elbow and covered for a long two count. Low-Ki however was able to get up and with bigger things such as the Crew and Majestic to take care of and came back at Earl Roberts with a flurry of kicks. Low-Ki hit a dragon suplex on Earl Roberts then locked in the Dragon Clutch. Earl Roberts managed to get to the ropes but was in obvious pain as he waited in the corner as Low-Ki hit his cartwheel elbow in the corner. Low-Ki signalled for the Ki-Krusher and picked Roberts up and drove him down to the mat and covered for the win. The fans laughed at Earl Roberts as he went to the back as Low-Ki posed in the ring for a while.
Result - Low-Ki wins
(12:30) **3/4
SWEW Tag Team Championship
Styles Ca$h d. The SAT
Styles Ca$h made there first SWEW Tag Team Championship defence a successful one as they beat the SAT in a good outing. As common place for Styles Ca$h matches, Chris Ca$h played face in peril into AJ was able to get into the ring. The finish came when AJ Styles hit the Styles Clash on Joel Maximo and covered he got two as Jose broke it up. AJ made a blind tag to Ca$h as AJ and Jose brawled, Ca$h climbed to the top rope and hit a 450 splash on Joel and covered for the 3 count.
As AJ and Chris celebrated with there belts out of nowhere, Trent Acid hit the ring and knocked Chris Ca$h off the top rope and before AJ knew what was going on Trent hit a big Yakuza Kick on AJ knocking him nearly out cold. Trent then took AJs tag team title belt and posed with it on the aisle before heading to the back with AJs SWEW Tag Team Championship belt. Officials came to help AJ who looked quite dazed at what happened and he was helped up by Ca$h and the officials.
Result - Styles Ca$h win
(13:03) ***
Super Dragon d. Teddy Hart
H-Factor made a huge statement by beating two members of the Crew and Teddy Hart was looking to make an impression on Majestic by beating Super Dragon. The match was super stiff with Dragon and Hart trading big moves, big dives and harsh streaches the whole match. In a great 20 minute match both men came close to picking up the win in a match which saw some innovative moves. Hart flew off the top rope to the outside with a 450 crossbody on Dragon to take him down while Dragon hit a top rope head stomp on Hart nearly crushing his skull. Super Dragon was able to pick up the win when he caught Teddy Hart with a big Dragon Suplex nearly breaking Teddys head. Both men got a standing ovation for the match as Majestic picked up a win over H-Factor.
Result - Super Dragon wins
(20:09) ****
SWEW Triple Chance Match
Austin Aries d. Delirious & Rocky Romero
Austin Aries shot himself right to the top of SWEW as he joined CM Punk and Jimmy Jacobs by picking up a SWEW Triple Chance and giving him a chance to challenge for the SWEW Heavyweight Championship once again. Romero and Delirious were looking to win the match for there respective partners as Majestic and the Havana Pitbulls were looking to get a shot against Styles Ca$h but Aries was simply to quick for them. The dynamic of three heels in the same match posed a little problem but Delirious managed to play the underdog as Romero and Aries double teamed him for most of the match. However when Romero went to cover Delirious, Aries double crossed him and drove him to the mat with a german suplex then he rolled Romero out of the ring and climbed to the top rope. Delirious who was down after a superkick from Romero was unable to get out of the way as Aries hit the 450 Splash. That was enough to get the win, Aries smirked a lot as Romero looked annoyed with Aries. Aries picked up a mic as Romero and Delirious went to the back.
Result - Austin Aries wins
(15:08) ***
Aries looking very happy with his win looks round the crowd and starts to speak. Aries says originally Spanky was meant to be in this match, but at Mayhem in Minnesota, Spanky had to cheat to win the epic 20 minute match so Aries had no choice but to throw Spanky threw the table on the outside then bust him open with a steel chair putting him in hospital and making him miss the show. Aries starts laughing as he begins to talk again, he says he has forgiven Spanky and is ready to get in the ring with him on February 6th in South Dakota for a second time.
As Aries says this commissioner Don Callis comes to the ring. He takes the mic from Aries and tells Aries he doesn’t make the matches, but Don Callis makes the matches. Callis tells Aries that on February 6th Spanky and Aries will be in the ring together but not on one on one action, but in tag action as it will be a Dream Partner match. Callis tells Aries that Spanky has already picked Low-Ki to be his partner and Aries has 15 days to find a partner of his choosing. Aries doesn’t look to happy, but mouths off to Callis and says that’s fine by him and leaves. Callis then turns his attentions to Trent Acid who he calls a disgrace for taking AJ Styles SWEW Tag Team Championship belt. A title is something to earn, not to steel and Acid has not earned it. AJ Styles has challenged Trent Acid to a singles match on Feb 6th and Callis has confirmed it. Callis also notes the lack of a number one contender for Styles Ca$hs SWEW Tag Team Championship belts so he makes a number one contenders match between the Havana Pitbulls, Majestic of Super Dragon and Delirious, H-Factor of Teddy Hart & Jack Evans and the SAT in a four team elimination match. Callis thanks the fans for coming and hope they enjoy the main event. Callis makes his way to the back as Samoa Joes music hits.
As we hear Samoa Joes music in the background we got backstage and see Jimmy Jacobs coming through the arena door.
SWEW Heavyweight Championship
Alex Shelley© vs. Samoa Joe
Samoa Joe came out looking in a confident mood as he circled the ring looking to become SWEW Heavyweight Champion. The Ultimate Challenge Cup holder and current SWEW Heavyweight Champion Alex Shelley made his way to the ring to attempt to make his first title defence a successful one. Both Majestic and the Crew have been banned from ringside Callis points out as the leaders of both factions fight for the biggest prize in SWEW.
Samoa Joe rocked Shelley with a big forearm in the early going and a big chop sent him down. Joe covered and only got a one count as Shelley mouthed off at Joe saying it will take more than that. Joe and Shelley exchanged chops but Joe was the easy winner of that as Shelley stumbled and Joe threw Shelley through the ropes. Joe measured Shelley on the outside and flew through the ropes with an out of control tope but Shelley moved and Joe crashed to the floor hard. After a boot to the gut, Samoa Joe was hit with a DDT on the outside. Joe looked dazed as Shelley through his head into the ringpost then he rolled Joe into the ring. Shelley climbed to the top rope and came off the top with a knee and he hit Joe right in his chest. Shelley covered and got two.
Shelley used an amateur-style move to take down Samoa Joe but Joe managed to get to the ropes as Joe seemed to be holding his neck. Shelley saw this and locked in a twist on his neck. Joe looked in a bit of pain but Joe was able to flip Shelley over and hit three stiff kicks to Shelley’s spine to get the crowd going. Joe hit the ropes and smashed Shelley in the jaw with a big knee

NO
Shelley kicked out after a close call. After ducking a clothesline, Shelley used a deep arm drag on Samoa Joe but Samoa Joe hit Alex Shelley with a big slap and a second one put him down. Joe locked in a STF on Shelley and locked it in good right in the middle of the ring. Shelley was screaming in pain and tried biting Joes hand but Joe hit Shelley hard with two stiff shots and locked him hands again. Shelley was able to get to the ropes but looked in big pain as Joe lifted Shelley up and hit a belly-to-belly suplex and covered for two.
Alex Shelley hit a sharp arm drag on Samoa Joe but it didn’t seem to faze Joe as he managed to kick Shelley in the gut and he powerbombed Shelley into the mat covered for two then flipped over for the Boston Crab. Shelley again got to the ropes but looked in immense pain as he went to the outside. Joe followed him and a right hand from Samoa Joe put Shelley down. Joe whipped Shelley into the guardrail bending it he hit it so hard. Joe then put Shelley on a chair and set up for an Ole Kick but as Joe ran towards Shelley, Shelley lifted up the chair he was sitting on and Joe smashed his face right on the chair. Joe was busted open but no DQ was called as Joe brought the chair into play. Shelley was still woozy but got into the ring first as Joe was bleeding quite heavily. Joe was into the ring next but Shelley was waiting and hit a dropkick to Joes head Shelley covered and got a two.
Shelley now had the advantage and locked in his one STF on Samoa Joe. Shelley was stretching his cut widening it making it bleed more and more. Joe managed to get out but was unable to see from all the blood and Shelley was able to hook in the Border City Stretch. Shelley pulled back wrenching the arm and neck as Joe screamed in pain it looked like Joe was going to tap but he couldn’t give up and he struggled to get to the ropes but he did. Joe could barley stand his neck was so damaged.
Alex Shelley floored Samoa Joe again and started kicking the back of Samoa Joes neck. The crowd were really getting behind Joe now as Shelley locked in a unique submission on Joes neck. Joe showed his power by viciously pushing Shelley off. Joe still couldn’t get off however and Shelley covered for another two. Shelley looked to finish and signalled for the Shell Shock. Joe was slowly up blood covering his eyes and he walked into the Shell Shock

Shelley doesn’t tap, but looks out of it as ref Turner lifts Shelley’s hand and it falls to the mat once, twice, three times. The bell is rung and Alex Shelley has passed out to Samoa Joe’s choke and Samoa Joe is the new SWEW Heavyweight Champion.

Saturday Showdown
January 22nd 2005
Hallom Arena, North Dakota
SWEW returns to North Dakota and comes in after crowning two new champions at the Mayhem in Minnesota weekend. For 6 six months Jimmy Jacobs was SWEW Heavyweight Champion but no longer as Alex Shelley defeated Jimmy Jacobs to take the title. For 4 months the Havana Pitbulls were SWEW Tag Team Champions but no longer as Styles Ca$h of AJ Styles and Chris Ca$h defeated the Havana Pitbulls to take the titles. Now both titles will be defended by the respected champions for the first time as SWEW present Saturday Showdown.
SWEW Heavyweight Championship
Alex Shelley© vs. Samoa Joe
Since Jimmy Jacobs took the SWEW Heavyweight Championship at the first ever SWEW show Go, Go, Go, Alex Shelley has been uneasy with his former friend doing better than him. Six months later Alex Shelley is the leader of Majestic commanding his loyal soldiers Delirious and Super Dragon into battle. He has defeated four men in one night to win the Ultimate Challenge Cup and finally on night two of the Mayhem in Minnesota weekend he achieved his number one goal and took the SWEW Heavyweight Championship away from Jacobs by defeating him clean in the middle of the ring. Alex Shelley has stated if Jimmy Jacobs can hold the title for 6 months who can stop him holding it for year. Shelley may be confident, but there is a big angry Samoan in his way and is going to stop at nothing to finally become number one in SWEW after winning a SWEW Triple Chance match with Low-Ki and Teddy Hart the same night Shelley became champion.
Alex Shelley leads Majestic, Samoa Joe leads the Crew. Both men believe there team is stronger than the other however now the Crew have lost the SWEW Tag Team Championship Majestic are number one in SWEW. However 24 hours before Alex Shelley won the SWEW Heavyweight Championship in a 20 minute classic match Samoa Joe defeated Alex Shelley clean in the middle of the ring and is very confident of doing it again. Now his bogey man Jimmy Jacobs is not in possession of the SWEW Heavyweight Championship Samoa Joe has stated the title is his and he along with the rest of the Crew are going to stop Alex Shelley and the rest of the Majestic in there tracks. The biggest prize of them all will be on the line at Saturday Showdown as SWEW Heavyweight Champion Alex Shelley will defend his title for the first time as Samoa Joe makes the challenge in what promises to be a main event the people of North Dakota will be talking about for months.
SWEW Tag Team Championship
Styles Ca$h© vs. The SAT
Chris Ca$h achieved his dream of becoming a champion as on there second attempt to take the SWEW Tag Team Championship from the Havana Pitbulls, AJ Styles was able to hit Ricky Reyes with the Styles Clash to give Styles Ca$h there first title reign. Now they will defend there titles against the SAT of Jose and Joel Maximo who despite losing on night one of Mayhem in Minnesota defeated the young team of Alex Lovell and Ray Stevens on night two which Don Callis thought was enough to award them a title shot at Saturday Showdown. Both teams are very popular with the fans and it promises to be a great highflying match as Styles Ca$h defend the SWEW Tag Team Championship for the very first time against the SAT.
Super Dragon vs. Teddy Hart
At night one of Mayhem in Minnesota Teddy Hart made his debut for SWEW as he debuted teaming with friend Jack Evans to face Majestic of Delirious and Super Dragon. The match went to a 15 minute time limit draw in a very exiting match and Dragon and Teddy Hart got into each others faces after the match so Commissioner Don Callis placed them to fight in one on one action at Saturday Showdown. At the end of the Mayhem in Minnesota weekend it appeared that Teddy Hart along with Jack Evans and Bobby Quance had formed his own team known as H-Factor in an attempt to inject some energy into SWEW. Alex Shelley has told Super Dragon to stop the H-Factor before it has even got started as he wants nobody to take Majestics market share of SWEW.
SWEW Triple Chance Match
Austin Aries vs. Delirious vs. Rocky Romero
For the first time Don Callis has made the SWEW Triple Chance Match a chance for tag teams to get a tag title shot for the future of Rocky Romero of the Havana Pitbulls and Delirious who is now teaming with Majestic team-mate Super Dragon have a chance to earn themselves a SWEW Tag Team Championship shot against new champions Styles Ca$h. Delirious has been a real surprise package in SWEW in it’s first six months and has picked up many big wins. Rocky Romero has been very dominate in tag team action holding the SWEW Tag Team Championship for months before losing the last show and would love to get a rematch for himself. However there is a wildcard in this match and that is Austin Aries. After a great start in SWEW, Austins star started to die down in SWEW, but no more. Austin Aries targeted Spanky as the man he needs to get to the top of SWEW. On the second night of Mayhem in Minnesota in a great match Spanky defeated Austin Aries only for Aries to hospitalize Spanky after the match making him to miss Saturday Showdown and Austin Aries told Don Callis to put him in Spankys place for this match. Callis looking threatened did so and Austin Aries is in and is looking for a big win so he can once again challenge for the SWEW Heavyweight Championship. However when Spanky returns to SWEW Austin will have to watch his back as his actions might come back to haunt him.
John ‘OK’ Earl Roberts vs. Low-Ki
It was a really successful weekend in Minnesota for Earl Roberts as his transformation from Joker to the baddest Rastafarian on the planet brought him victories over Jimmy Rave and Matt Sydal. After beating Sydal he dedicated his win to his people and said he would show the non-believers he is the real deal by challenging Low-Ki to a match. However sometimes you wish you didn’t get for what you wish for as Low-Ki has accepted the match and put his war against Majestic and the Crew on the side one night as he prepares to battle Earl Roberts. If Earl Roberts could pick up a huge upset victory on Low-Ki the fans will have to accept him as the real deal as the Earl moves up the SWEW rankings. However Low-Ki has shown time and time again he is one of the best in the US and won’t be taking Earl Roberts lightly in what promises to be a hard hitting match.
H-Factor of Bobby Quance & Jack Evans vs. The Crew of Ricky Reyes & Trent Acid
H-Factor make there official debut at Saturday Showdown as in tag action Bobby Quance and Jack Evans will face members of the Crew Ricky Reyes and Trent Acid. Reyes and Acid have never teamed before but similarly to Alex Shelley, Samoa Joe has told his boys to stop H-Factor in there tracks before they get started. Reyes and Acid have the size advantage but Evans and Quance could quite possibly be the fastest tag team in the history of wrestling. A win over the Crew for H-Factor could help them cement themselves as a viable 3rd party in battle for control of SWEW but the Crew are going to make sure that doesn’t happen.
Alex Lovell vs. Jimmy Rave
Lovell made is SWEW debut teaming with partner Ray Stevens as they lost to the SAT on night two of Mayhem in Minnesota. However Lovell and Stevens were impressive in there first full-time match after been called up from the SWEW Training Academy and Lovell will be looking to pick up his first win in SWEW as he takes on Jimmy Rave who is currently 0-265 in SWEW. Another loss for Rave especially against someone who is wrestling only his second match will surely end his SWEW career for good but will Lovell be able to get the job done?
Tickets are still available on the door for the party at $15 or through www.swew.com. We are at the Hallom Arena on January 22nd as we return to North Dakota. We hope you are there as we present a stacked card including two first time defences of titles as SWEW Heavyweight Champion Alex Shelley makes his first title defence against Samoa Joe and the SWEW Tag Team Champions Styles Ca$h make there first defence against the SAT. Will both champions come through there first title defences? There is only one way to find out.

SHOW
The SAT d. Wasted Talent
Alex Lovell and Ray Stevens were waiting in the ring to make there full show debuts after graduating from the SWEW Training Camp as the team Wasted Talent. The SAT were looking to bounce back after losing in a title match to the Havana Pitbulls last night. Wasted Talent showed why they had been touted as the most exciting duo in the training camp as they came close to picking up wins on two occasions when Alex Lovell hit a hurricanrana after bouncing off the middle rope it looked like he would pin Jose but was unable to get the three. When Stevens locked in the Border City Stretch in the middle of the ring it looked like Joel would tap out but Jose was able to break it up. Experience however won the match as the SAT picked up the win when Lovell was on the top rope looking to hit a big move he was cut off by Jose and Joel joined them on the top rope as they hit the Spanish Fly on Lovell and Joel covered to pick up the win. Despite the loss it was a good showing for Lovell and Stevens who have looked to have impressed enough to remain on the fulltime roster.
Result - The SAT win
(9:03) **1/4
John 'OK' Earl Roberts d. Matt Sydal (w/Daizee Haze)
Just as he did last night John ‘OK’ Earl Roberts made short work of his opponent as he picked up a second victory of the weekend. Sydal through everything he had at Earl Roberts but it was not enough as Earl Roberts after locking in a STF earlier in the match to injury the neck was able to take it home by hitting the Jamaican Driver for the second night in a row to pick up a win. Earl Roberts got a lot of abuse from the just over 2000 fans in attendance as he went to grab a mic.
Result - John 'OK' Earl Roberts wins
(10:33) **1/2
As Sydal was helped to the back by Daizee, Earl Roberts got on the mic and in an over the top Jamaican voice thanked all his fans for helping win both his matches this weekend. However now he wants to challenge one of the top men in SWEW to show all the non-believers that John ‘OK’ Earl Roberts is the baddest Rastafarian on the planet. Earl Roberts wants Low-Ki for the 22nd January show in North Dakota and if Low-Ki accepts he will feel what real pain feels like. Earl Roberts was told to fuck off by several fans as he made his way to the back.
We cut to the ring and Danny Daniels is in the ring, he says that even without Kid Kash he can still be a big player in SWEW and it doesn’t matter who this mystery opponent is. As soon as he says that Jack Evans music hits and out comes Jack Evans, Teddy Hart and the debuting Bobby Quance. Quance runs into the ring and it looks like Quance is the mystery member of Teddy Hart and Jack Evans team and the man to face Danny Daniels right now.
Bobby Quance (w/ Jack Evans & Teddy Hart) d. Danny Daniels
A few nice Bobby chants rang round the arena as the west coast star looked very good picked up a win on his debut. Quance showed why he is known as the shooting star as he hit a lot of unique high flying moves including a reverse suicide tope through the ropes driving Daniels into the guard rail. Daniels came back with a bit of offence and nearly hit Quance with the Electric Chair Driver but Quance reversed it with a reverser rana. After a barrage of attacks Bobby Quance floored Danny Daniels, then went to the top rope and he came off with the Shooting Star Press. That was enough to get the three count and Teddy Hart and Jack Evans joined Quance in the ring to celebrate. Evans made a few ‘H’ gestures to the crowd with his fans as the threesome went to the back.
Result - Bobby Quance wins

SWEW Tag Team Championship
The Havana Pitbulls© vs. Styles Ca$h
After losing in last nights main event against Jimmy Jacobs for the SWEW Heavyweight Championship thanks to Majestic, AJ Styles was looking to make up for it with his partner Chris Ca$h as they looked to stop the Havana Pitbulls from making there fifth title defence. AJ and Ca$h were out first and Ca$h was handing out $5 to the crowd as it was a big occasion. The Havana Pitbulls attacked AJ Styles in the post match brawl last night and they looked confident as the Crew members came into the ring as they prepared to defend there titles.
AJ Styles and Ricky Reyes started out and came face to face and AJ Just waffled Reyes with a huge forearm sending him to the corner. Romero tagged himself in and a clothesline by Romero put Styles down to the canvas. An armdrag from Romero sent AJ down again and he locked in an armbar. Styles and Romero wrestled in the mat for a minute then both got out and stood off. Ca$h and Reyes were tagged in and the power of Ricky Reyes was in evidence as he blasted Ca$h with a hard clothesline and after a boot to the gut, he hit a big DDT on Ca$h and covered for a two. Ca$h hit Reyes with a few hits and went for a dropkick to knock Reyes down. Reyes wobbled and Ca$h went for another one and Reyes swatted him down, picked him up and through him over him head landing Ca$h on the top of his head

Austin Aries came out with a really intense look on his face. Callis and Garguilo played up the fact that Aries hadn’t scored a big win in the last few shows but he did show any effects of recent mishaps as he beat Matt Sydal in a very competitive match. Sydal thought he had victory in his grasp after he hit a tilt-a-whirl backbreaker he climbed to the top rope and went for the Shooting Star Press but Aries moved and Sydal crashed to the mat. Aries took Sydals head off with a lariat climbed to the top rope and hit his 450 splash and covered for the 3. This was perfect preparation for his big match with Spanky tomorrow night.

John 'OK' Earl Roberts came out in his old Joker gear with a big Jamaican sash around his neck.

The finish came when Rave attempted a reverse-rana Earl Roberts caught Rave and took him in position for the Joker Driver what Callis donned the Jamaican Driver and brought Rave down to the mat and got the three count.
Result - John 'OK' Earl Roberts wins

As Rave walked to the back Earl Roberts picked up the mic. He says Rave lost because he didn’t respect John ‘OK’ Earl Roberts and his Rastafarian roots and tomorrow night Matt Sydal will lose to Earl Roberts and he will dedicate his win to all his supporters.
SWEW Tag Team Championship
The Havana Pitbulls© d. The SAT
The Havana Pitbulls made there 4th defence of the SWEW Tag Team Championship as they beat the SAT in just under 15 minutes setting up there 5th defence against AJ Styles and Chris Ca$h, Styles Ca$h tomorrow night. Romero and Reyes were simply to strong for the SAT who after there build-up to there big title match will be disappointed they didn’t come closer to victory. The closest they came was after a plancha on Romero from Jose, Joel hit a hurricanrana on Reyes and covered but Reyes kicked out at two and a half. The Pitbulls picked up the win when Reyes and Jose were fighting on the outside. Romero delivered a barrage of lariats to Joel then signalled for one big one to finish and he hammered Joel with one and he covered and picked up the win.
Result - The Havana Pitbulls win
*** (13:52)
A camera followed the Pitbulls to the back and they were congratulated by Samoa Joe and Trent Acid as they went back into the lockeroom. Samoa Joe told the cameraman to stay as he began talking. He said tonight the leader of Majestic Alex Shelley is going to be taken out by Samoa Joe. Trent Acid will stop Low-Ki before he has even started and the Crew will become number one in SWEW.
Jack Evans & Teddy Hart draw Majestic of Delirious & Super Dragon
The two newest teams in SWEW went to a 15 minute time limit draw in what could be best described as a spot fest. Huge Teddy chants rang round the building as he came to the ring and after taking the initial advantage Super Dragon managed to slap the crap out of him and gain advantage. Both teams came close to the pinfall when Evans hit a SSP on Delirious while Hart was holding him it looked like it was over but Dragon stopped the pin. Hart did likewise when Dragon hit the Psycho Driver on Evans. Neither team were able to get an advantage and when the bell rang to signal the 15 minutes was over both teams got into an argument with each other and had to be separated by ring officials.
Result – Draw
***1/2 (15:00)
Samoa Joe d. Alex Shelley
The leaders of the Crew and Majestic met in the ring in one on one action for the first time in SWEW history but it was the leader of the Crew Samoa Joe who picked up the win in a very good match. Although the match Callis pointed out how Shelley may be thinking of his possible SWEW Heavyweight Championship match with Jimmy Jacobs tomorrow if Jacobs retain tonight and might not be 100% on his game today. Joe was defiantly on his game and came close several times in the opening 15 minutes to getting a victory. An STO gave him a two count and Shelley was close to tapping to the STF but crawled to the ropes. The fans weren’t getting behind wither man really as they are both firmly on the heel side. Shelley realising he needed to fight back or he wouldn’t be fit enough to fight Jacobs tomorrow started to use his speed and tried to ware Joe out to tire him out.
Joe started to look sluggish and when Shelley kicked him in the gut Joe was winded and Shelley hit DDT that spiked him right on the top of his head. Shelley covered but Joe kicked out. Shelley then hooked in the Border City Stretch and it looked like Joe was to tap but he got to his feet still carrying Shelley and put him in position to hit the Island Driver and he did. Samoa Joe covered and Alex Shelley had lost to the leader of the Crew. When Shelley got up he got into Joes face then he big the ‘title is mine’ hands to Joe before leaving the ring. If Samoa Joe wins the big SWEW Triple Chance tomorrow he will be able to have a shot at whoever is the champion in the future.
Result - Samoa Joe wins
***3/4 (23:09)
Low-Ki d. Trent Acid
Low-Ki came to the ring looking to put a huge dent in the Crews already successful night with the other 3 members getting victories tonight. Low-Ki who will step into the ring with Trent’s leader Samoa Joe tomorrow along with Teddy Hart in a SWEW Triple Chance match tomorrow night started the better of the two and hit some stiff kicks to Trent who bailed out of the ring. Trent came back with his own stiff kicks and Trent used some of his goofy antics to try and mess with Low-Kis head. It didn’t work however and after and near 20 minute superb match Low-Ki just as he did at the Awards Evening caught Trent Acid as he went for a Yakuza Kick he picked him up and drove him down to the mat with a Ki-Krusher to pick up the win. The fans gave the duo a round of applause as both men went to the back.
Result - Low-Ki wins

SWEW Heavyweight Championship
Jimmy Jacobs© (w/Becky Bayless) vs. AJ Styles
AJ Styles came out first and got a huge reaction as one of the most popular wrestlers in North America was about to challenge for the SWEW Heavyweight Championship. Jacobs and Becky came out next and HUSS rang round the building as he was about to face one of his toughest challenges yet as he prepares to make his seventh title defence. The two men shake hands as the match gets underway.
AJ and Jacobs grappled and AJ threw Jacobs down to the mat. Styles kicked Jimmy Jacobs in the ribs. Jacobs got worn down by Styles as he was wrapped in a leg grapevine by Styles. AJ Styles suplexed Jacobs and made a cover but got two. Styles dumped Jacobs to the outside and measured him up. Styles came over the ropes with a somersault plancha dive on Jimmy Jacobs crashing both men into the guardrail. The crowd shout holy shit. Jimmy Jacobs is up first and hits AJ Styles with a punch. He tries to whip AJ into the guardrail but AJ reveres and Jacobs just smashes into the guardrail and into the crowd destroying the guard rail. AJ Styles picks Jacobs up and chops him down then rolls him in the ring.
AJ Styles covered Jacobs and got 2. Jacobs looked like he hurt his shoulder while on the outside and was holding it as AJ backed Jacobs into the turnbuckles and unloaded with chops. Styles arm dragged Jacobs to the canvas, and hooked an arm bar working on his injured shoulder. In a nice sequence, Styles came off the ropes with a spinning head-scissors on Jimmy Jacobs, after avoiding two clotheslines in a brief Jimmy Jacobs comeback. AJ Styles came off the ropes with his backwards somersault reverse DDT and covered and got a two. Styles took Jacobs over with a spinning arm drag. A big kick from Jacobs caught Styles off guard but he got right back up, only to take a second big kick to the head and Jacobs covered:

AJ picked Jacobs up but Jacobs reversed with a hurricanrana and Styles landed on his head. Styles was groggily up and Jacobs grabbed his head ran to the corner and delivered the Contra Code to AJ Styles. Jacobs landed badly on his already injured shoulder. Jacobs was slow to cover

Alex Shelley had run down the aisle and pulled referee Sean Hanson out. Shelley nailed the ref with a right hand as Styles looked in disbelief. Shelley grabbed a steel chair and came into the ring and swung it at AJ. Styles ducked and grabbed the chair from Shelley and hammered it over Shelley’s head. However he never saw Super Dragon come into the ring behind him and he picked Styles up and hit the Psycho Driver on Styles. Delirious had run down and rolled the ref into the ring. Dragon pulled Jacobs on top of Styles while Delirious had come off the ropes with the Crazy Drop on Styles. Hanson slowly covered the pinfall

Jimmy Jacobs had retained the SWEW Heavyweight Championship over AJ Styles thanks to Majestic setting up Alex Shelley’s title shot for tomorrow night against champion Jimmy Jacobs. Majestic continue to pound on Styles and Jacobs until Low-Ki comes down with a chair, down goes Super Dragon but Delirious and Shelley attack Low-Ki. Styles is up and a wild brawl irrupts. The Crew come back to the ring and attack Low-Ki and everyone starts fighting with everyone as a 10 man brawl ensues. The Havana Pitbulls go after AJ Styles there opponent tomorrow night, Samoa Joe after Low-Ki, Delirious after Trent Acid and Jacobs and Shelley getting at it in the middle of the ring. It ends with Styles, Low-Ki and Jacobs ridding the ring of the Crew and Majestic as the tape comes to an end.

Mayhem in Minnesota
January 8th & 9th 2005
Skybox Arena, Minnesota
Super Wrestling Extravaganza Wrestling start 2005 with a bang as they debut in a new City and hold there first ever double shot weekend. SWEW will hold two shows in Minnesota at the Skybox Arena in what could forever change the landscape of SWEW. Signed for the doubleshot are SWEW Heavyweight Champion Jimmy Jacobs, Majestic of Alex Shelley, Delirious and Super Dragon. The Crew of Samoa Joe, Trent Acid and SWEW Tag Team Champions the Havana Pitbulls and also the debut of the controversial Teddy Hart. In this preview we will show you what all the key players and groups in SWEW have to win and lose this weekend:
SWEW Heavyweight Champion
Jimmy Jacobs
Jimmy Jacobs goes into Minnesota for his toughest test of his wrestling career as in 24 hours to survive as SWEW Heavyweight Champion Jimmy Jacobs will have to defeat on night one AJ Styles then arch rival Alex Shelley on night two if he is to remain SWEW Heavyweight Champion after Mayhem in Minnesota. Jacobs coming off a big victory at the Awards Evening and been awarded wrestler of the year is said to be thinking it is now possible for him to defeat these two top international stars and finally rid himself of the tag of a comedy wrestler.
Styles Ca$h (AJ Styles and Chris Ca$h)
AJ Styles has been warned by Jimmy Jacobs he is not scared of him as they go into night one to face each other for the SWEW Heavyweight Championship. AJ Styles is however the overwhelming favourite as he looks to add the SWEW Heavyweight Championship to his growing list of titles won. On night two AJ may have a chance to become the first ever double champion as he teams up with Chris Ca$h as they will take on whoever is the SWEW Tag Team Champion on night two which will be the winners of the SAT and Havana Pitbulls title match on night two. We have heard rumours that Ca$h is not best pleased that AJ is also having a singles career in SWEW as Ca$h brought AJ in just to be his tag partner. However if Styles Ca$h take the gold home I don’t think Ca$h will be complaining.
Majestic (Alex Shelley, Delirious and Super Dragon)
Leader of the Majestic could top his huge Ultimate Challenge Cup victory by capturing the SWEW Heavyweight Championship away from Jimmy Jacobs on night two if Jacobs survives with the title after his match with AJ Styles on night one. Majestic have made it clear from day one that they want to be the ones that take the title away from Jacobs and if AJ Styles does it, it will make Jacobs vs. Shelley non title. Styles has promised Alex Shelley the first shot at the title if Styles beats him for it, but Shelley doesn’t want it to go down like that and has let everyone who will listen know that. However on night one it will be a battle of the leaders as Alex Shelley will take on the leader of the Crew Samoa Joe thanks to Jimmy Jacobs who was allowed to make any match he wanted after been the only survivor at the Awards Evening. Both men having been looking to show who has the strongest group in SWEW and with both leaders going at it, a win of either of them could push either group to the top.
Alex Shelley has phoned the SWEW offices to tell them that Delirious and Super Dragon are to join forces and enter the tag team division. There first match will take place on night one as they face Jack Evans and the debuting Teddy Hart. Delirious and Super Dragon will be looking to get off to a good start on there path to capture the SWEW Tag Team titles. Then on night two Delirious and Super Dragon will take the night off as they have been told by Alex Shelley to watch his back at all times for his possible SWEW Heavyweight Championship match. It could be a break or make weekend for Majestic as Alex Shelley hopes to lead them to the top of SWEW.
The Crew (Samoa Joe, The Havana Pitbulls and Trent Acid)
The Crew have been signalled out by a lot of men in SWEW and people are out to get them this weekend in Minnesota. The Havana Pitbulls face two huge tag team championship matches as on night one they face the SAT who they have had numerous problems with at recent shows and on night two they face Styles Ca$h. The Havana Pitbulls have shown they are the best tag team in SWEW but will Rocky Romero and Ricky Reyes be able to face two tough teams in 24 hours and come up on top? Low-Ki has begun a war to rid SWEW of the Crew and Majestic and has targeted the Crew as the first group to get out of the way. On night one Trent Acid and Low-Ki go one on one and if Acid defeats Low-Ki it will stop Low-Kis war against the Crew before it has even begun but will Trent be able to get the job done?
The leader of the Crew Samoa Joe has a huge weekend ahead of him. First he will battle the leader of Majestic Alex Shelley in a match which could establish the winner of the match as the dominant leader of a group in SWEW. Samoa Joe is desperate not to lose this one and has been studying Alex Shelley very closely according to sources close to him. Then on night two he has a chance to get back into the SWEW Heavyweight Championship picture as he faces Low-Ki and Teddy Hart in a SWEW Triple Chance match. Joe will get to get in the ring with long term rival Low-Ki but what factor will the unpredictable Teddy Hart play in this match. Like Majestic, this weekend could be make or break for the Crew.
John ‘OK’ Earl Roberts
The artist formally known as Joker has one last chance in SWEW as he comes into Mayhem in Minnesota with a new attitude which he hopes will bring him success finally in SWEW. The self proclaimed ‘Baddest Rastafarian on the planet’, has gone back to his native roots and is hoping wins over Jimmy Rave on night one and Matt Sydal on night two will give him the confidence to move up the SWEW rankings.
Austin Aries
Have an awesome start in SWEW which saw Austin rise so fast he earned himself a SWEW Heavyweight Championship shot, he has stuttered in recent shows. Austin is not going to take it anymore and the cocky, explosive superstar has targeted Spanky as the man he needs to beat to rise up the rankings and on night two he will face Spanky in a match where if he wins he could rise back to where he once was in SWEW. However he can’t overlook his match with Matt Sydal on night one and if he lost to Sydal going into his big match with Spanky it would not be a good omen for Austin.
?? ?? ??
A mystery opponent for Danny Daniels has been signed for night two. Details on who it is will not be announced until bell time but all we can say is he is a west coast star who has wrestled on the east coast and is linked to Jack Evans and Teddy Hart who are looking to maybe create a group to challenge Majestic and the Crew in coming weeks. (These dates will be announced on night one for future SWEW shows).
Tickets are still available on the door for both nights of the Mayhem in Minnesota weekend for $15 or through www.swew.com. We are at the Skybox Arena, Minnesota for both shows and we hope you can be there as we have four huge title matches featuring AJ Styles, Jimmy Jacobs, Alex Shelley and the Havana Pitbulls. The Crew and Majestic will be in full force and Teddy Hart will make his SWEW debut:

Home Release Version
Commentator: Don Callis & Eric Garguilo
Owner and commissioner of SWEW Don Callis is standing in the ring with over 2500 fans chanting SWEW. Callis thanks the fans for coming and supporting SWEW in there first six months. Callis thanks all the people possible for keeping SWEW going, the fans, supporters, the wrestlers and hope it will keep them going so they can hold an Awards Evening next year. The fans applauded as Don Callis begins the awards by handing out the Team of the Year award. In 3rd place was the team of Alex Shelley and Low-Ki who despite never teaming before got to the final of the SWEW Tag Team Tournament. In 2nd place the team of AJ Styles and Chris Ca$h, Styles Ca$h. This young team will have there second shot at the titles against the Havana Pitbulls on the second night of Mayhem in Minnesota. In 1st place with no surprise the only tag team in SWEW to hold the SWEW Tag Team titles Ricky Reyes and Rocky Romero, the Havana Pitbulls.
All of The Crew comes down the aisle to accept the award. The actual winners of the award stayed pretty quiet as Samoa Joe rants on how the Crew will go on into 2005 and control SWEW for years to come and says he is not scared of Majestic saying they will take over as they lead in the numbers game four to three members. Trent Acid just sits back as Romero thanks the fans for voting for them as the Crew walk to the back.
Don Callis congratulates the Havana Pitbulls once again and then starts to talk about the Show of the Year. Callis says there have been nine great SWEW this year with each show offering something different to the fans. In 3rd place is Revenge in North Dakota where we saw a great Alex Shelley, Trent Acid and AJ Styles SWEW Triple Chance match and an appearance from Juventud Guerrera. In 2nd place the Ultimate Challenge Cup where we saw the SWEW debuts of American Dragon and CM Punk plus Alex Shelley going through four men to win the Ultimate Challenge Cup. In 1st place was the 4th Show Spectacular where we saw the great Ladder Match between Jack Evans and Austin Aries and the awesome eight man tag featuring AJ Styles, Alex Shelley, Jimmy Jacobs and Spanky taking on the Crew.
Don Callis now goes on to award the match of the year in which any number of matches had a chance to win. In 3rd place it goes to the match at Jacobs vs. Joe II as Super Dragon made a huge name for himself in SWEW as he defeated Spanky to shoot up the rankings in SWEW. In 2nd was the eight man tag from the 4th Show Spectacular where The Crew defeated AJ Styles, Jimmy Jacobs, Alex Shelley and Spanky in a classic match. In 1st place was the only steel cage match in SWEW as Alex Shelley defeated AJ Styles in the finals of the Ultimate Challenge Cup to take the trophy home. Callis invites AJ Styles out first then Alex Shelley.
Alex Shelley had come down with the Ultimate Challenge Cup trophy and placed it next to Styles in an attempt to wind him up but AJ ignored it. AJ Styles thanks the fans for voting for the match until Alex Shelley rips the microphone from AJs hand. He says he won the match so he should get the match of the year award to himself as he carried AJ to it as well. Shelley also has a bone to pick with Styles over Styles challenging Jacobs for the SWEW Heavyweight Championship on the first night on Mayhem in Minnesota. Shelley tells AJ that if he doesn’t receive his title shot against Jacobs on night two there will be hell to pay for AJ and Majestic will come down on him like a ton of bricks. AJ snatches the mic off Shelley and says he’s beat him at Revenge in North Dakota and if he beats Jacobs for the title he will be more than happy to give Shelley the first shot at the title afterwards. The duo then get in each others faces and Shelley faints to hit Styles but Shelley gives Styles the finger and leaves the ring with his Ultimate Challenge Cup trophy as Styles gets clapped by the fans for a bit then goes to the back.
Don Callis thanks AJ and Alex again and now talks about the most important award the wrestler of the year award. In 3rd place the award goes to Low-Ki. He has thought off Kid Kash from SWEW and has had great matches with Spanky and Samoa Joe in 2004. In 2nd place it goes to Samoa Joe who has led the Crew to win title in SWEW and himself coming close to winning the SWEW on several occasions. In 1st place there could only be one winner. He has carried the SWEW Heavyweight Championship since day one and has been putting SWEW on the map with great performance everywhere he goes. The winner of the 2004 Wrestler of the Year is Jimmy Jacobs.
HUSS starts ringing round the arena as Jimmy Jacobs carrying the SWEW Heavyweight Championship around his waist and Becky Bayless make there way to the ring. Just as Don Callis is about to hand a mic to Jimmy, Alex Shelley (still holding the Ultimate Challenge Cup trophy) and Super Dragon appear on the aisle and march to the ring. Shelley takes the mic and says this is bullshit. He won the Ultimate Challenge Cup and wasn’t even in the top 3 and he beat Jimmy Jacobs on the last show. He says everyone knows there is only one wrestler of the year and that is your next SWEW Heavyweight Champion Alex Shelley. Jacobs snatches the mic back off and tells Shelley to go screw himself and Jacobs smashes the mic over Shelley’s head. Super Dragon attacks Jacobs as Becky flees and Shelley gets back up. Shelley and Dragon start hammering away on Jacobs until AJ Styles, Low-Ki and Spanky fly down the ring and corner Shelley as Super Dragon escapes the ring. The threesome talk turns of chopping Shelley until; Samoa Joe and Trent Acid come from behind and take them out. I guess the match is starting now.
Eight Man Elimination Tag Match
AJ Styles, Jimmy Jacobs, Low-Ki & Spanky vs. Alex Shelley, Samoa Joe, Super Dragon & Trent Acid
Callis now back in the ‘commentary booth’ reminds us this is an elimination match and the surviving members of the winning team will be able to book any match they want. Callis also points out that ref Paul Turner will be making sure only the legal men will be in the match at any time and if someone comes into the ring to break up a pin they will be dq’ed and eliminated. Both teams eventually get into a corner each as things settle down and both teams talk a little strategy. It is Spanky and Samoa Joe who will start us off in the first and only match of the night.
After ducking a clothesline, Spanky used a dropkick to send Samoa Joe down. A second one sent Joe down again and Spanky covered but Joe powered out with ease. Samoa Joe hit Spanky with a series of vicious kicks to the body and threw Spanky into his corner and tagged in Trent Acid. Joe lifted Spanky to his knee while Acid hit a small legdrop as the Crew members doubled teamed Spanky. The ref ushered Joe out of the ring which gave Spanky time to get up from the pin as Acid got a two count. Acid powerbombed Spanky into the mat and set up for a Yakuza Kick. He lifted his boot but Spanky blocked it and hit an enziguri and both men went down. Both men crawled to there corner but Acid tagged in Super Dragon in first and he rushed to the other side of the ring and blocked Spanky getting the pin. Spanky hit a sharp arm drag on Super Dragon, who popped right up and hit Spanky with some stiff shots to the chest and back of Spanky. Dragon tagged in Joe and Joe hit a big headbutt on Spanky and then set him on the top rope and tagged Super Dragon back in. Super Dragon climbed the top rope and hit a top rope Ace Crusher on Spanky. That was enough to eliminate him seven minutes into the match.
AJ Styles came into the ring as Alex Shelley decided he wanted into the match now. A single-leg trip from Shelley was enough to put Styles down and Shelley slapped on a chin lock. Styles started elbowing out and started hitting Shelley with a flurry of chops and kicks and Shelley quickly retreats to his corner and tags in Samoa Joe. AJ Styles sent Samoa Joe down with a massive straight kick to the head and Joe stumbles back and Super Dragon tags himself in and launches himself off the ropes and cross bodies Styles and get a 2 count. AJ tags in Low-Ki and Low-Ki and Super Dragon circle each other. A series of five forearms to the chest from Low-Ki left Super Dragon down in the middle of the ring in pain. Low-Ki hit several stiff kicks to Super Dragon. Low-Ki signalled for the Ki-Krusher and lifted Dragon up but he muscled out of it and lifted Ki up for a Psycho Driver but Low-Ki wriggled out of it and locked in the Dragon Sleeper on Super Dragon in the middle of the ring. Dragon had no where to go and tap out. Low-Ki was a bit slow on letting go of the hold and Shelley, Joe and Acid all stormed the ring and attacked Acid as all hell broke loose.
Styles, Jacobs and Low-Ki attempted to fight them off as Jacobs and Shelley started brawling in the middle of the ring Samoa Joe and Trent Acid were hammering on Low-Ki on the outside of the ring. Styles hit the ropes and flew over the top with a somersault plancha and took out Samoa Joe and Trent Acid. Order was restored after a while with Shelley and Jacobs now the legal men apparently. A series of HUSS chops from Jacobs had Shelley reeling and Jacobs had Shelley set up for the Yakuza Kick but Shelley ducked and tagged in. Trent Acid shoved Jacobs into his corner and Low-Ki tagged himself in. Acid looked warily at Low-Ki is opponent on the first night of the Mayhem in Minnesota weekend. Acid tried to overpower the smaller Low-Ki but was unable to as Low-Ki hit Acid with some stiff kicks to Acid and fell to the ground. Acid managed to duck a Low-Ki kick and go for a Yakuza kick and nailed Low-Ki square in the head.

NO
Low-Ki somehow kicked out. Trent couldn’t believe it and set up again and he went for it but Low-Ki caught his leg and spun Trent over and picked him and drove him down with the Ki-Krusher and that was enough to get the pin. Alex Shelley immediately hit the ring and started to pound on Low-Ki as Acid moved to the back. Shelley pulled Low-Ki to the corner knowing if his team were to lose this fall they would be at a 3-1 handicap. Samoa Joe was tagged in and he locked on a single leg crab to weaken Low-Ki. Low-Ki managed to get to the ropes but the damage seemed to be done as Low-Ki was finding it hard to stand up. Shelley was tagged back in and n arm twist by Shelley was followed by a big STO from Samoa Joe who blind tagged into the ring as the leaders of the Crew and Majestic seemed to be working well. Joe covered Low-Ki but only got two. Joe arm dragged Low-Ki to the canvas and locked in a STF. It looked like Low-Ki was going to tap and AJ and Jimmy Jacobs tried to get the crowd behind Low-Ki. Low-Ki managed to get to his feet but when he did he was very groggy and just escaped the hold. Low-Ki tried to tag in a partner but Samoa Joe grabbed him from behind and at the 22 minute mark Low-Ki tapped out to the choke from Samoa Joe leaving AJ Styles and Jimmy Jacobs vs. Alex Shelley and Samoa Joe.
AJ Styles came into the ring and Samoa Joe went low with a kick on Styles to give him the advantage. Samoa Joe hit AJ Styles with a punch and tagged in Alex Shelley. AJ hit Alex Shelley with a chop and then applied a hammerlock. Shelley managed to reverse it with a unique leglock on Styles and Shelley released the hold. Styles hit an armdrag on Shelley and held on weakening the arm. Shelley got knocked down by a Styles heel kick and Styles climbed to the top rope. Styles waited for Shelley to get up and leaped and went for a hurricanrana but Shelley caught him and took him down in a high Boston Crab. The pain was intense as Shelley was screaming for AJ to tap out. However AJ got to the rope and Shelley was forced to let go but the damage was done. Shelley signalled it was the end and came towards Styles but Styles rolled Shelley up in a small cradle

Alex Shelley pinned AJ Styles using the bottom rope for leverage but the ref didn’t see. Samoa Joe tagged in Alex Shelley as Jimmy Jacobs slowly got into the ring. AJ was complaining to the ref but to no avail who told him to go to the back.
Samoa Joe got taken over with a fireman's carry by Jacobs whose strength was a surprise to Joe. Joe arm dragged Jacobs to the canvas, and threw him into the corner and started to give him a face wash in the corner. Joe signalled it was over after he gave a huge lariat to Jacobs he covered but only two. Another one got two again as Shelley told Joe to take him up top. Samoa Joe took Jimmy Jacobs and put him on the top rope. Joe climbed and got in position to deliver the Muscle Buster. Joe leaped but Jacobs caught Joes head and brought him down from the top rope with an Ace Crusher.

Jacobs pinned Samoa Joe leaving just him and Shelley. Shelley rushed into the ring and started attacking the weakened Jacobs. Jimmy Jacobs floored Shelley out of no where with a big chop but Shelley got straight up and whipped Jacobs hard into the corner as Samoa Joe went to the back. Shelley locked on a single leg crab to weaken Jacobs but he refused to tap as he got to the ropes. Jimmy Jacobs floored Shelley then Jimmy Jacobs hit Alex Shelley with a punch and then Jimmy Jacobs applied a hammerlock to Shelley, Shelley then reversed out of it and whipped Jacobs straight into the referee who smashed heads with Jacobs and fell down. Shelley locked in the Border City Stretch on Jacobs who started tapping out but there was no ref. Shelley continued holding the hold until AJ Styles came flying back down the aisle and picked up the Ultimate Challenge Cup trophy and went into the ring. Shelley went to closeline Styles but he ducked then smashed the Ultimate Challenge Cup trophy over Shelley’s head. Styles left the ring as Jacobs slowly moved to cover Shelley as the ref slowly came to.

Jimmy Jacobs was the remaining survivor as he pinned Alex Shelley to win the match. Samoa Joe came back down the aisle and attacked AJ from behind and threw him into the ring. Alex Shelley was up next as him and Joe both attacked AJ and Jacobs until officials came between them.
Result - AJ Styles, Low-Ki, Spanky and Jimmy Jacobs win
****1/4 (30:47)
As Jimmy Jacobs is helped up by Becky Bayless he gets on the mic. HUSS he tells Alex Shelley and Samoa Joe not to go down the aisle yet. He says that they have both made his life a misery since winning the SWEW Heavyweight Championship but now he gets some payback as on night one of Mayhem in Minnesota he can now make a match because he survived tonight. That match will be Alex Shelley taking on Samoa Joe in the battle of the leaders of Majestic and the Crew. Shelley and Joe stare at each other as he tells Shelley he will not beat him for the SWEW Heavyweight Championship then he turns to AJ Styles and tells him he won’t beat him for the SWEW Heavyweight Championship as the show comes to an end.
As the tape goes to black the full cards for both nights of Mayhem in Minnesota are shown:

Eight Man Elimination Tag Match
AJ Styles, Jimmy Jacobs, Low-Ki & Spanky vs. Alex Shelley, Samoa Joe, Super Dragon & Trent Acid
Perhaps the eight people who have made the biggest impact on SWEW in it’s first six months will all come together in the ring for a huge eight man elimination tag match where the surviving members of the winning team are allowed to make any match they want on any show involving any member of the SWEW roster and it does not have to include there selves. Anything could happen with these kind of rules and it’s not worth thinking of what matches could be made. There are many issues between these eight men which we will state here in this very preview right now:
AJ Styles & Jimmy Jacobs – These two have to team up on December 26th but on January 8th on the first night of the Mayhem in Minnesota AJ Styles will face Jimmy Jacobs for the SWEW Heavyweight Championship. How can these two men team together when they will be fighting for the biggest prize in SWEW in two weeks time?
AJ Styles & Alex Shelley – Alex Shelley defeated AJ Styles in the Ultimate Challenge Cup final and has a mental advantage over AJ Styles. However Shelley is furious that AJ Styles will receive a SWEW Heavyweight Championship before him and if Styles beats Jacobs on night 1 of Mayhem in Minnesota, Shelley will not receive a title shot against Jacobs on night 2. Shelley has called SWEW office and stated that there is no way he won’t be the one to dethrone Jacobs to become SWEW Heavyweight Champion.
AJ Styles & Trent Acid – Ever since AJ Styles came to SWEW he and Trent Acid have tried to one up each other. AJ Styles and Trent Acid have let to meet in a one on one matchup in SWEW but they would love to get the winning pinfall over each other after both getting wins on one and other in tag matches.
Jimmy Jacobs & Alex Shelley – The Shelley and Jacobs rivalry has been coming to a head since the first SWEW show where they ironically came in as a tag team. At the Ultimate Challenge Cup to duo finally met in one on one action and Alex Shelley defeated Jimmy Jacobs and now has a chance to take Jacobs title on January 9th. Jacobs has been left brutally destroyed several times by Shelleys Majestic team of himself Delirious and Super Dragon and Jacobs will be looking for revenge.
Jimmy Jacobs & Samoa Joe – The first five shows of SWEW saw Samoa Joe desperately trying to take the SWEW Heavyweight Championship away from Jacobs but he was unable to get the job done in some brutal matches between the duo. However Joe has led his Crew of Trent Acid and the SWEW Tag Team Champions the Havana Pitbulls to success in SWEW and Joe is now ready to soon challenge for the title again.
Jimmy Jacobs & Super Dragon – Super Dragon has been a key player for Alex Shelley who has used Dragon to attack Jacobs numerous times and Super Dragon has a win over Jacobs in a hardcore match. Jacobs will also be looking for revenge over Super Dragon in this match.
Alex Shelley & Low-Ki – This duo teamed in the SWEW Tag Team Tournament and got to the final only to lose. Shelley blamed the loss on Low-Ki and refused to shake Low-Kis hand. Low-Ki now wants to rid SWEW of The Crew and Majestic who want to control SWEW but Low-Ki has targeted the leader of Majestic as a man he needs to take out.
Low-Ki & Samoa Joe – Low-Ki has promised to take out Samoa Joes Crew as his next task, but Samoa Joe will want to show Low-Ki that it will take more than talking to get the job done.
Low-Ki & Trent Acid – These two men will meet on January 8th at Mayhem in Minnesota and as a key member of the Crew Low-Ki will want to take out Acid in this match. However Acid wants it to be known he is no pushover and hopes winning this and then a match against AJ Styles in the future will place him high in the SWEW rankings.
Spanky doesn’t have any heat with anyone because he is so cool. Tickets to get to the awards evening at the Guthrie Centre in Iowa are only $5 for the hour show and it promises to be a great one as awards are handed out and battles happen.

On the second night of Mayhem in Minnesota he will team up with partner Chris Ca$h as Styles Ca$h will take on the Havana Pitbulls for the SWEW Tag Team Championship.
If on night one in Mayhem in Minnesota AJ Styles captures the SWEW Heavyweight Championship from Jimmy Jacobs, Alex Shelley will receive his SWEW Triple Chance back and face Jimmy Jacobs in one on one action.

Stevens and Lovell who have been trained by SWEW at the SWEW Training Camp by head trainer SWEW superstar Alex Shelley are very exited on making the move up to the full SWEW roster and will be looking to impressive. Ray Stevens is a 22 year old technical wrestler in the mould of trainer Alex Shelley and he even uses Shelley’s Border City Stretch as a finisher. Stevens from Minnesota will be looking to make an impact in his home town by picking up an early win. His partner Alex Lovell is just 18 years old from New York City but Alex Shelley has said this high flyer has all the talent needed to get to the top in the business. Using an amazing 450 moonsault to finish off opponents Wasted Talent will be looking to make there mark on there debut on the second night of Mayhem in Minnesota in January 9th.
Speaking of Alex Shelley he is furious that AJ Styles has a title shot against Jimmy Jacobs before him and that his win at the Ultimate Challenge Cup should have allowed no one else but him to have a shot against Jimmy Jacobs. Alex Shelley is not scheduled to have a match on the first night of Mayhem in Minnesota as he wants to rest up for his match against Jacobs. Shelley has warned Styles that if he beats Jacobs for the SWEW Heavyweight Championship then Majestic are going to come down on a top of bricks on AJ Styles and his partner Chris Ca$h.
More exiting news has reached SWEW as the controversial Teddy Hart has signed up for the Mayhem in Minnesota weekend. On night one he will team with his good friend Jack Evans as he takes on Majestic of Delirious and Super Dragon in what promises to be a great hard forth match. Then on night two a huge SWEW Triple Chance Match has been signed as Teddy Hart will be joined by Low-Ki and Samoa Joe as all three men look to score a big victory. Low-Ki has stated that now Kid Kash is out of the way he is looking to restore order in SWEW and his first target is the Crew. He will face Trent Acid on the first night of Mayhem in Minnesota where Samoa Joe will hope Acid can put a dent into Low-Ki before the SWEW Triple Chance match on night two.
Joker has phoned up the SWEW offices and has told SWEW commissioner Don Callis that Joker will never wrestler in SWEW again. However John ‘OK’ Earl Roberts the baddest Rastafarian on the planet will be there. On night one Roberts will face Jimmy Rave then on night two Matt Sydal and Robert has claimed that going back to his Rastafarian roots will inspire him to take his game to the next level.
Austin Aries will also have a busy weekend as on night one he will face Matt Sydal then on the second night he faces one of his biggest challenges yet as he goes one on one with Spanky. Aries is looking to show he is one of the best in America and with two victories over the weekend another SWEW Championship match will surely not be far away. Danny Daniels now without Kid Kash has one last chance to compete in SWEW as on the second night he takes on a mystery opponent that will not be known until Daniels is in the ring.
Tickets for both nights in Minnesota debut from the Skybox Arena are $15 each and with two huge nights we hope you can be there. A full preview for the Mayhem in Minnesota card will be up after the Awards Evening with the Awards Evening preview coming in the next few days.

SHOW
Ultimate Challenge Cup – Round 1 – SWEW Triple Chance Match
Alex Shelley d. American Dragon & Matt Sydal (w/Daizee Haze)
Huge Dragon, Dragon, Dragon chants ran through the arena as a record crowd of just under 2500 welcomed American Dragon, Bryan Danielson to the ring and to SWEW. Sydal was out next followed by Daizee Haze then Alex Shelley came last and seemed really intense as he squared up to Dragon in the ring. The first ever Ultimate Challenge Cup got off to a great start as some great interactions between Shelley and Danielson left the fans begging for more as Shelley and Danielson tried to one up each other all match with a variety of submissions while fending off the advances of the wildcard Sydal. Alex Shelley was able to be the first man to qualify for the semi-finals when Sydal hit his Shooting Star Press on Danielson he looked like he would pick up a shock upset victory. However Shelley stopped the pin by kicked Sydal hard in the head and then locked on the Border City Stretch on Danielson who had nowhere to go and Danielson tapped out in a near 20 minute great opener. Shelley left while Sydal and Danielson shook hands and chants of Please Come Back to Dragon rang round the ring as Danielson headed to the back.
Result - Alex Shelley wins
***3/4 (18:45)
Ultimate Challenge Cup – Round 1 – SWEW Triple Chance Match
AJ Styles d. Austin Aries & Jack Evans
All three men got a nice reaction as they came out with Styles been the most popular of the threesome, some small boos for Aries but no huge heat as the match got underway. Evans teased a few dives to the outside onto Aries during the first few minutes as a lot of the action was on the outside in a frantic opening. When Styles hit a hurricanrana on Aries, Evans quickly tried to steal a pin but it was not to be as Aries kicked out. Aries came closest to a win before the end when he blocked a second hurricanrana from Styles and drove him to the mat with a powerbomb and covered but Evans flew off the top rope with a dropkick to break it up. The finish came when AJ Styles caught Jack Evans who had attempted a reverse rana but AJ span him around and delivered a Styles Clash for the three count while Aries was on the outside.
Result - AJ Styles wins

Ultimate Challenge Cup – Round 1 – SWEW Triple Chance Match
Jimmy Jacobs (w/Becky Bayless) d. Samoa Joe & Super Dragon
HUSS was heard round the building as SWEW Heavyweight Champion Jimmy Jacobs entered the ring along with Becky Bayless in this non title match up. It was also a potential meeting for Majestic vs. The Crew but Super Dragon only had one through on his mind which was to follow on from his previous victory over Jacobs at the last show and continue beating him down. Joe and Dragon worked together on hammering on Jacobs in the early going but Joe turned on Dragon and went for a choke on him when he wasn’t looking but Dragon wriggled out of it and slapped Joe hard in the head. The match broke into chaos then as Jacobs recovered as Samoa Joe and Super Dragon hammered away at each other hard. SWEW Heavyweight Champion Jimmy Jacobs was able to advance to the next round when once again he managed to pin Samoa Joe. This time with the Suicide Solution as Jacobs came crashing down to the mat driving Joe to the ground. Dragon was unable to stop the cover as he had been hit with a superkick by Samoa Joe and was on the mat. Jacobs had set up a first time meeting in the semi-finals in SWEW against Alex Shelley. Samoa Joe was real mad at been beaten by Jacobs for the umpteenth time.
Result - Jimmy Jacobs wins
**3/4 (12:07)
Ultimate Challenge Cup – Round 1 – SWEW Triple Chance Match
CM Punk d. Spanky & Trent Acid
As Spanky and Trent Acid waited in the ring, the lights went out and CM Punks music hit as the fans went wild as the straight edge revolution finally came to SWEW. The winner of this would face AJ Styles in the semi finals so all the men knew they would have to be fresh if they were to be able to beat AJ. In the best match of the first round, all three men came close to picking up the victory but it was CM Punk on his SWEW debut who did when he blocked Spankys attempt to hit a hurricanrana off the top rope and instead hit the Pepsi Plunge on Spanky to pick up the win.
Result - CM Punk wins
**** (11:35)

6 Man Warfare
Jose Maximo d. Chris Ca$h & Delirious & Joel Maximo & Ricky Reyes & Rocky Romero
In what turned out to be a weird tag match the SAT got the advantage over the SWEW Tag Team Champions as Jose Maximo was able to get a pinfall over Ricky Reyes as the SAT hit the Spanish Fly on Reyes to pick up the pinfall. With no tags been made and the crowd burned out with multiman matches after the three triple threats which had taken place in the Ultimate Challenge Cup already do far. The SAT and Havana Pitbulls both worked as teams while Delirious and Ca$h worked alone in a dynamic that never got going really. Ca$h came close to a pin over Joel Maximo after a moonsault and Delirious took out all five men on the outside with a tope. However it was Jose Maximo who had picked up the win, but the Havana Pitbulls had the last laugh as they attacked the SAT as they celebrated in the ring after the match.
Result - Jose Maximo wins
**1/2 (14:52)
Ultimate Challenge Cup - Semi-Final – Singles Match
AJ Styles vs. CM Punk
Both men got good reactions as they came down to the ring as two of the biggest names in the US independents prepared to battle for a place in the first ever Ultimate Challenge Cup final.
After some basic mat wrestling CM Punk used a fireman's carry to take down AJ Styles and kept him on the mat hooking his elbow between his legs but AJ elbowed out and rolled to his feet as we had an indy stand off. After a leap frog, Punk hit Styles with an arm drag as he came off the ropes and CM Punk hit a second sharp arm drag on AJ Styles and applied a hammerlock on a grounded Styles, then drove knees into the back of his arm, softening it up. AJ Styles had his knee driven into the mat by Punk, and Styles clutched at his knee. As Styles slowly got up, Punk hit a superkick to Styles and covered for a two count.
Punk came off the ropes with a charge, but Styles blocked it and threw him over the top rope. Styles waited for Punk to got up and hit a running somersault plancha to the outside as both men crashed to the floor. Both men slowly brawled on the outside but Styles got the upper hand and threw Punk into the guardrail. Styles tried again but Punk reversed it and Styles crashed into the railings hard. Punk rolled Styles into the ring and climbed to the top rope and went for a knee drop from the top and hit it and covered but only got 2. CM Punk looked to hurt AJs injured knee by locking in a figure four leglock. Punk locked it in the centre of the ring. Styles tried to turn it round but Punk hammered Styles in the chest and he was able to move further away from the ropes. Out of desperation, Styles tried to grab Punks hair but Punk moved away from Styles. Styles was finally able to get to the ropes after a few teasings of him tapping out. Styles was clutching his knee as Punk hit the ropes and hit a big Shining Wizard

Ultimate Challenge Cup - Semi-Final – Singles Match
Alex Shelley d. Jimmy Jacobs (w/Becky Bayless)
The first meeting between Alex Shelley and Jimmy Jacobs in SWEW proved that Alex Shelley was just as good as SWEW Heavyweight Champion Jimmy Jacobs as Shelley got a clean victory over Jacobs as he goes on to face AJ Styles inside a steel cage to compete for the Ultimate Challenge Cup. Fifteen minute back and forth action finally ended when Jacobs went for the Suicide Solution, Alex Shelley planted Jacobs on the top rope and into the tree of woe. Stiff kicks to the unprotected head of Jacobs busted open his nose and when Jacobs fell to the mat Shelley dragged Jacobs to the middle of the ring and Shelley made the SWEW Heavyweight Champion tap out to the Border City Stretch. Alex Shelley laughed in the ring as the rest of Majestic Delirious and Super Dragon came to the ring and attacked Jimmy Jacobs as Becky pleaded for Alex to stop. Shelley shoved Becky down as Super Dragon set Jacobs up on a table and Delirious hit the Crazy Drop off the top rope crushing the blooded Jacobs through the table. With Shelley holding a SWEW Triple Chance and having just beating Jacobs clean a Shelley / Jacobs title match must be on the horizons.
Result - Alex Shelley wins

Loser Leaves SWEW
Kid Kash vs. Low-Ki
One of the most important matches in history was about to take place as Kid Kash came to the ring without Danny Daniels who is banned from ringside. Low-Ki came down looking very intense as the two men were about to battle for there future in SWEW.
Low-Ki stared out fast and Kid Kash got knocked down with a running forearm from Low-Ki and got up only to walk into a big chop from Low-Ki. A tight arm bar from Low-Ki kept Kash grounded. Kash got into the match with a rake to the eyes and he went for a quick rollup but only got one. Low-Ki looked disgusted and hit Kash with some Mongolian chops until Kash bailed the ring holding his shoulder.
Kid Kash got back into the ring and raked Low-Kis eyes and Kid Kash used a sleeper hold to weaken Low-Ki. An arm breaker from Kid Kash hurt Low-Ki as Kash looked to take advantage of the match. Three right hands from Kid Kash sent Low-Ki down. And Kash covered and got a two. After ducking a clothesline from Low-Ki, Kid Kash bounced off the ropes and came back with a lightning kick and gave a little whooo before coving for the two. Kash threw Low-Ki to the outside and hit Low-Ki with a plancha as he got up.
Kash threw Low-Ki into the ring post twice before rolling him into the ring and Kash covered but got a 2 again. Low-Ki tried a hip toss, but Kid Kash countered with a Tornado DDT off the ropes with Kash showing stuff we haven’t seen from him in years that was almost enough for a three count. Kash looked annoyed that it was taking so long to put Low-Ki away and he signalled to go for a moonsault but he was to slow with it and Ki moved out of the way. With Kid Kash down on the mat, Low-Ki sprung to life and climbed the ropes and hit a falling headbutt to the back of Kashs head and both men were down. Low-Ki was up first and measured Kid Kash with a spin kick. Low-Ki backed Kid Kash into the turnbuckles and unloaded with chops and kicks but Kash went low with a kick and Low-Ki bent over and Kid Kash used a leaping piledriver on Low-Ki who landed on the top of his head

He waited for Low-Ki to get up and he went for the smash mouth but Low-Ki caught the chair and smashed it over the head of Kash and threw the chair out of the ring. Kash stumbled round the ring until Low-Ki picked him up and drove him down to the mat with the Ki-Krusher. The referee slowly got up and covered Kid Kash

The fans are doing the nah nah nah song to Kash who picks up the mic and calls all the SWEW pieces of crap and he says he’s glad he lost so he never has to wrestle in a piece of crap place like this again. People throw garbage at Kash as he leaves the ring.
Don Callis comes out as the Steel Cage is been set up. He says both Alex Shelley and AJ Styles have been through three men tonight so far and will now go one on one for the Ultimate Challenge Cup trophy which he shows off to the crowd. He then talks about the awards show to take place on December 16th.

As Callis had just finished talking the cage had finished been set up and Callis told the fans to look forward to the main event to crown the first ever Ultimate Challenge Cup winner.
Ultimate Challenge Cup - Final – Steel Cage Match
AJ Styles vs. Alex Shelley
The steel cage is about 15ft high fully steel but with small platforms on the corners for support. AJ Styles was first down and was firmly the fans favourite as Alex Shelley came down to the ring alone. Shelley and Styles stared at each other as Styles looked to get a pinfall over Shelley for the second consecutive show. The door was wired shut and the announcer reminded the fans the only way to win was by submission or pinfall. Shelley gave Styles a cheap shot as the match got underway.
Shelley rammed Styles head into the cage but AJ Styles came back and unloaded with knife-edge chops on Shelley and rammed Shelley’s head into the cage. Styles put Shelley down with a big spin kick. After ducking a clothesline, Styles used a deep arm drag on Shelley. Styles then bounced off the ropes and came over the top of Shelley and hit his inverted DDT on Shelley and covered for two. Styles climbed to the top rope but Shelley was up quicker then Styles thought and Shelley joined him on the top rope. They took turns of ramming each others head into the cage but Styles on his third attempt was able to send Shelley crashing to the mat. Styles using the cage for balance moved to the middle ropes and hit a 450 splash on Shelley

Shelley kicked out. An arm twist by Styles was followed by three arm wrenches in a row to weaken Shelley but Shelley who obviously saw the earlier CM Punk match, chopped the back of Styles knee with his free hand and Styles fell to the mat.
