Condition of Vito Thomaselli and N8 Mattson

www.smwawrestling.com

January 22, 2007

Both Vito and N8 received medical attention after their match. They both had several stitches in their foreheads to close the cuts they endured in the match. N8 Mattson also suffered some damage to his neck and will not be able to compete at the next show but he will be fine and fit to compete after his injuries heal. Vito will be on the next show and as a reward for winning the brutal match against N8 Mattson he is receiving a shot at the SMWA Champion, Chance Beckett, at the next show.

We have also signed a match between Jimmy Rave and CM Punk. We don’t know why the two men were so pissed at each other during the four way match at Mayhem but both men were eager to agree to the match and it will take place at the next show.

The next show is being held in Kalamazoo on February 17 and it is titled Full Throttle. We will have a full card for the show soon.

Full Throttle (Kalamazoo)

February 17, 2007

Announcer: Brian Guppie

Color Commentary: Mike Patterson

Guppie: “Welcome to SMWA’s Full Throttle. I’m Brian Guppie and I’m joined on commentary by Mike Patterson. We have a big main event as Vito Thomaselli and Chance Beckett face off and this time the SMWA Championship is on the line.”

Patterson: “We also have the SAT making their debut tonight as they challenge the Strong Brothers for the SMWA Championship. CM Punk will also meet Jimmy Rave in singles action because of their interaction at the last show.”

Guppie: “We also have Sonjay Dutt taking on Excalibur, Halo facing Greg Pawluk and we open the show with Colt Cabana versus Michael Shane.”

Patterson: “Cabana could make a big impact here tonight but Michael Shane really needs to get a big win here in this match to prove himself. He was going to have a tag team shot with Paul London tonight but London was unable to make the show so now Shane is on his own again.”

Segment 1: Primetime for Shane

Michael Shane walks down to the ring slowly and taunts all of the fans drawing quite a few boos. He slides into the ring then takes the mic from the announcer.

Shane: “Here I am once again in front of you pathetic fans. Once again you get a display of my skills that you really don’t deserve. Tonight was supposed to be a glorious night for me. Paul London and I were supposed to challenge for the SMWA Tag Team Championship. We were promised that but then Paul left and once again I am on my own. However I know you fans will accept me back into the singles division with gusto, especially since I never really left it. Many people say that I am going to have a tough time proving that tonight because I have to wrestle Colt Cabana but he doesn’t scare me at all. He’s bigger than me sure but he doesn’t know how to go in the ring like I do. He’s always dancing and playing around and that shit isn’t going to work against me. If he starts doing any stupid dancing I’ll knock him down and show him that he just made a mistake the hard way. Colt get your goofy ass down to this ring so I can win this match and leave this shithole!”

OA: 68

Guppie: “Up next we have Halo taking on Greg Pawluk and this should be an exciting match.”

Punk: “You two fans can boo all you want but you booed me at the last show and I won that match. You can boo me all you want tonight because I’m still going to come out of this match with the victory. Jimmy Rave you are nothing compared to me. I am Straight Edge and that means I’m better than you. You have your trance rave knee but I have the shining wizard. You have your crippler crossface and I have my devil lock. I have the Pepsi Plunge and the Pepsi Twist. You don’t have anything on me Rave. You have one game plan and I can wrestle any style. I can wrestle any opponent and I can just keep on wrestling. I can go in the ring for an hour or more. I’ve done it before and I’m going to do it again. Tonight you are going to be laid low in the ring. Last month you fell short of winning and you just couldn’t summon the will to get up and break up my cover. Rave tonight you are going to walk down to this ring and you are going to go down for the one, two, three.”

Patterson: “The SAT pulled off some nice moves but none of them were enough to keep either Strong down for the three count. They couldn’t follow up either because of how well the Strongs worked together and broke up pinfalls and made the saves.”

Guppie: “The Strong Brothers are having a magnificent run as the Tag Team Champions. In our next match we have Chance Beckett defending the SMWA Championship against Vito Thomaselli.”

Patterson: “These two have a long history against each other and we don’t have enough time to explain it all. Suffice to say Vito cost Chance his job here but Chance just won it back and won the Title and now they fight each other for the belt in a match that is sure to be wild.”

I signed a TV show in the diary but I'm not going to write them up like that. I'm just going to write two shows a month with 10 matches or so a piece and do them that way instead. I don't want to take forever with TV updates so it will be easier for me to write them up this way.

March 11, 2007

Announcer: Brian Guppie

Color Commentary: Mike Patterson

Guppie: “Welcome to SMWA’s The New Shit. I’m Brian Guppie and I’m joined on commentary by Mike Patterson. We have a big main event as Halo and Jay Lethal face off one on one and we have tons of more great matches in the show as well.”

Patterson: “And we start the night of action with Jimmy Rave taking on Michael Shane. These two men are primed to make an impact here in the SMWA and either one could prove that here tonight.”

Guppie: “Michael Shane uses his slow methodical style and he can annoy any opponent and get them to make mistakes. Jimmy Rave is a wrestler who is prone to make mistakes even though he has some awesome wrestling skills. He has really lacked the experience to take it to the next step.”

Patterson: “But he could prove he’s something different here tonight with a win and I think he can do just that.”

Segment 1: Jimmy Rave vs. Michael Shane

OA: 67 CR: 55 MQ: 79

Guppie: “Jimmy Rave and Michael Shane went back and forth in that match but Shane missed an elbow drop and that gave Rave an opportunity to destroy that arm and finish him off with the crossface.”

Patterson: “Just before the match we noted how Rave has had trouble with finishing off work on the arm but he showed he can do it here tonight.”

Segment 2: Rave Reviews

Rave calls for the mic and the announcer hands him the mic and Rave picks it up and stands up in the ring.

Rave: “Tonight I made an impact. Michael Shane you’re a good guy but tonight I beat you. You have a lot of talent in the ring but you waste it with your big mouth. If you quit your blabbing and bullshit before matches and during them you could be something. But enough about you. Tonight I showed something here. CM Punk had my number last month but it was a close match. I took Punk to the limit and he took me beyond my limits. CM Punk has a lot of skill in the ring and I can understand losing to him. I’ve turned things around tonight and I’m going to keep on winning here. Tonight I also have a tag team match and I team up with Sonjay Dutt against the Special K team of Angeldust and Deranged. Those two used to be Tag Team Champions and it’s going to be a tough match but we can do it. Sonjay is one of the best high flyers going today and I can’t wait to team up with him tonight. With one big match I could make myself as a tag team wrestler and I am going to do that tonight. I’ve gotten a big win in a singles match tonight and I’m going to beat the former Tag Team Champions tonight. Tonight is my night!”

OA: 65

Guppie: “Jimmy Rave is sounding confident after his win against Michael Shane as well he should be. Up next Halo takes on Jimmy Jacobs and this should be an exciting match.”

Patterson: “These two men have been with the SMWA since the beginning and they are both good junior style wrestlers. Halo really has some spectacular high flying moves and Jimmy Jacobs just won’t stay down no matter what.”

Guppie: “Halo doesn’t have an specific move he uses as a finisher while Jimmy Jacobs has the always devastating contra code in his repertoire of moves to finish an opponent.”

Notes: **1/4

OA: 63 CR: 45 MQ: 82

Patterson: “Brian you said Halo didn’t have a finisher he used all the time but you may have just seen him debut it there. He spiked Jacobs right onto his head after draping him on the ropes and it was all over.”

Guppie: “It sure was done after that move. Halo really showed a lot of his big moves in that match but Jacobs showed the heart and determination that has really made his name around the independent circuit.”

Patterson: “Jacobs showed heart but it wasn’t enough in that match. Our next match pits B-Boy against Sonjay Dutt.”

Guppie: “Sonjay is one of the brightest high flyers today and B-Boy is one of the most ruthless competitors going today and he’s going to go straight for the throat as he always does.”

Notes: *1/2

OA: 60 CR: 44 MQ: 77

Guppie: “B-Boy just slaughtered Sonjay Dutt in that match. Dutt fought back but he just couldn’t compete against the ferocity of B-Boy’s strikes.”

Patterson: “Few people can and that’s what makes him such a dangerous opponent. Dutt took a lot of punishment in that match and he just kept on coming back for more.”

Guppie: “Our next match pits two guys who love to work on their opponent’s neck as Danny Daniels faces off against Jay Lethal.”

Patterson: “The difference is in how they finish an opponent. Daniels likes to use piledriver variations and Lethal likes to use a dragon suplex or a tiger suplex to finish his opponents.”

Segment 5: Danny Daniels, Baby

Danny Daniels walks out from backstage to the boos of the crowd. He takes the time to pose for them then slides into the ring and takes the mic from the crowd.

Daniels: “I know you fans love me deep down in your hearts no matter what you do when I come out here. Tonight I get in the ring with Jay Lethal and people have been telling me that this guy is an up and comer. People have been telling me that I’m going to have my hands full with a man who can get on the mat and wrestle just as well as I can. People have been telling me that I am going to lose here tonight. Well people are wrong and tonight I’m going to prove that. You fans like Jay Lethal but that doesn’t mean a goddamn thing in the ring. You can’t make Lethal stronger or make him comeback. Tonight Jay Lethal is going to get spiked on his head, Baby! Tonight Jay Lethal is going down for the three count and there ain’t no changing that fact. Tonight is all about Danny Daniels in the ring and I’m going to show all you fans what you’ve been missing without Danny Daniels in your life. I’m going to show you fans that I am your true favorite and you are going to be begging for me to let you kiss my feet in worship, Baby!”

OA: 48

Notes: **

OA: 65 CR: 52 MQ: 79

Guppie: “Jay Lethal just pulled out a close match against Danny Daniels but he took some damage to the neck and that could cost him in his match against Halo later tonight.”

Patterson: “Daniels did some nice work in that match but he couldn’t finish Lethal off.”

Guppie: “Up next we have tag team action as Michael Shane teams up with Conrad Kennedy the Third against Josh Daniels and Black Dragon.”

Patterson: “This is going to be an interesting match. Both of these teams are new and they could have an interesting combination in the ring.”

Segment 7: Shane’s New Partner

Michael Shane walks out with Conrad Kennedy the Third following behind him. The two men enter the ring and Shane takes the mic from the announcer.

Shane: “Here tonight you see the foundation of Prime Time. CK and I are going to be the next tag team champions here in the SMWA. Tonight we face Josh Daniels and Black Dragon. Two talented men but they have nothing in common. They don’t wrestle the same style or know each other at all. CK and I are both slow, methodical wrestlers and don’t think we just came together because the SMWA decided to randomly throw us together as a team. We’ve been talking together and tonight we are going to start a winning streak that will lead to the SMWA Tag Team Championship. More will be joining the Prime Time stable. More people will join us as we prove to be dominant here in the SMWA. People will fall before us and if they can’t beat us they will join us.”

CK3 takes the mic from Shane.

CK3: “Michael Shane speaks the truth fans. You may not like it but we’re going to become the running force of the SMWA. Tonight the beginning of the end starts. Tonight the beginning of a new era starts. Tonight Michael and I show you fans that we are the real deal. And tonight I prove that I truly am the man with talent on loan from God!”

OA: 59

Guppie: “Shane may say that he and Conrad have talked about working together but they haven’t actually wrestled a match together so they may not blend as well as they talk.”

Patterson: “But they will have a strategy together and that will give them an advantage as well and that could make all the difference.”

OA: 57 CR: 38 MQ: 76

Guppie: “I must admit that Prime Time put on a nice showing in that match. They put Daniels and Dragon down and got the win.”

Patterson: “And they did a nice job when they worked the midsection of Black Dragon throughout the match.”

Guppie: “We have more tag team action up next as former tag team champions, Angeldust and Deranged, take on the new team of Jimmy Rave and Sonjay Dutt.”

Patterson: “Not to mention the fact that they cheated.”

Guppie: “What a back and forth match between those two men. Lethal went to work on the neck of Halo while Halo kept looking for the one big high-flying move to get the victory.”

Patterson: “The neckwork by Lethal allowed him to score a victory with a big dragon suplex but I can’t believe that Halo kicked out of that brainbuster from the second rope.”

Patterson: “That’s all the action we have for you fans tonight. Be sure to check out smwawrestling.com for info on upcoming shows and all your favorite wrestlers. For Brian Guppie, I’m Mike Patterson, thanks for supporting the SMWA.”

Guppie: “Excalibur picks up a win in a close match against Black Dragon. Those two were really going all out against each other and Excalibur managed to do more damage.”

Patterson: “The double underhook piledriver he used to finish the match is a devastating maneuver and can knock an opponent out and he got three seconds and that’s all he needed.”

Guppie: “So true. In our next match Michael Shane takes on Jay Lethal and Shane could be in trouble as he already wrestled for fifteens minutes tonight and only has about thirty minutes of rest.”

Patterson: “Jay Lethal has really been tearing it up in the ring lately as well and Shane is going to have to be on the top of his game to get the win here.”

Guppie: “Walters and Mattson worked on Sydal’s back for a lot of the match and it stopped him from really making a comeback late in the match.”

Patterson: “It’s what allowed Mattson to get the win that and Colt Cabana’s Colt 45.”

Guppie: “Sydal took a lot of punishment in that match but he kept trying to fight back. Up next we have the Tag Team Titles on the line as the Strong Brothers defend against the Havana Pitbulls for a third time.”

OA: 65 CR: 49 MQ: 82

Guppie: “Up next we have a huge special attraction match as we have Jimmy Jacobs taking on Chance Beckett one on one.”

Patterson: “This should be a great match. Jacobs hasn’t been around too much lately but he could really make an impact if he could defeat Beckett here but that’s not going to be an easy task as Beckett is definitely one of the top wrestlers in the SMWA right now.”

OA: 75 CR: 54 MQ: 97

Guppie: “Chance Beckett has really been perfecting his execution of that single leg Boston crab and he has put quite a few men away with that move.”

Patterson: “It’s not just the stretching of the leg but when Chance puts his knee on the back of his opponent’s head he really cranks the neck and back as well and he’s torquing all three of those body parts his opponent has no choice but to tap out.”

Segment 7: I Want the Belt

Beckett gets to his feet and calls for the mic and the announcer obliges him.

Chance: “Vito you won that belt from me in a fair match. You surprised me with how good you did. I expected to be able to walk all over you and come out on top like I did in the Midwest Invitational but I was wrong. You beat me and you won the belt to become the first ever two time champion. But I want you again. I want to win that belt back and I want to become a two time champion as well. Of course you have to get past B-Boy tonight but provided you do that I want you at the Third Anniversary show. And I want you in a two out of three falls match! I want this match to have a definitive winner. No quick pins or any lucky move finishing the match. You have to have your opponent scouted and you have to know how to beat them. I had the same match against Alex Shelley for the Championship and I lost the match at the First Anniversary Show and two years later I want the same match but there is going to be a different outcome because I guarantee that I’ll be walking out of the building with the belt around my waist. I know you want this match to happen Vito so you just tell the bosses in the back to make it happen and we both know that it will be signed.”

Beckett drops the mic then walks backstage.

OA: 74

Guppie: “A big challenge from Chance Beckett and I know Vito Thomaselli isn’t going to back down from any challenge and we will be seeing that match.”

Patterson: “If it’s anything like the match they had at the first night of the Midwest Invitational Tournament or the title match at Full Throttle it should be a great match.”

Guppie: “But like Chance says Vito has to get past B-Boy tonight and B-Boy is a former champion himself and getting a victory isn’t going to be a small feat.”

Patterson: “No it isn’t. B-Boy wants to become a two time champion as badly as Chance does and he’s going to bring his best tonight and he’s going to pummel Vito with his stiff strikes.”

Segment 8: Vito Thomaselli ©vs. B-Boy

The two men face off in the middle of the ring and lockup.

Winner: Vito Thomaselli (12:56)

Notes: **

OA: 67 CR: 56 MQ: 78

Guppie: “Vito just killed B-Boy with that electric chair driver. They were going back and forth and that move just took B-Boy out of the match.”

Patterson: “B-Boy had some devastating strikes in that match but none of them had the effect that Vito’s electric chair driver did.”

Guppie: “Vito gets an impressive victory to retain the SMWA Championship and it looks like we’ll be seeing him take on Chance Beckett in a two out of three falls match at the Third Anniversary Show.”

Patterson: “That’s all we have for you fans here tonight. For Brian Guppie, I’m Mike Patterson, thanks for supporting the SMWA.”

The Night of the Dragon

March 30, 2007

On April 9 SMWA presents Night of the Dragon in Kalkaska. We are bringing in So-Cal standout Super Dragon to the SMWA and his reputation has gained him a shot at the SMWA Champion Vito Thomaselli. Thomaselli has a tough test before his match against Chance Beckett at the Third Anniversary show. If Super Dragon manages to win the belt Vito will still face Chance in a 2/3 falls match although the title won’t be on the line.

In unfortunate news Angeldust has suffered a serious leg injury. The injury will keep Angeldust out of the wrestling business for a year and a half at least and it’s possible he will never be able to return to the ring. We wish Angeldust well and our sorry that he has been removed from the wrestling business.

Color Commentary: Mike Patterson

Guppie: “Welcome to Night of the Dragon. I’m Brian Guppie and I’m joined by Mike Patterson on commentary. We have a huge show lined up for you tonight with Super Dragon challenging Vito Thomaselli for the SMWA Championship and tons of other great matches.”

Patterson: “Indeed we do. Super Dragon making his debut plus we see Ace Steel and Colt Cabana, The Second City Saints, in tag team action.”

Segment 1: Super Dragon Challenge

Super Dragon walks out from backstage and is accompanied by Excalibur and Halo. The three men strut down towards the ring and enter the ring and then Excalibur takes the mic from the announcer.

Excalibur: “Super Dragon is known throughout the world as a brutal wrestler who knows how to knock his opponent out of his boots. His reputation has earned him this title shot. There is no doubt that Super Dragon can beat the shit out of Vito Thomaselli or anybody else who has ever held the SMWA Championship. But many of the fans of the SMWA have been complaining about Super Dragon getting a title shot. I don’t know why this is such a problem for you fans but Super Dragon has somehow understood these complaints and he wants to prove himself. He is offering an open challenge. Anybody from the back can come on out here and challenge Super Dragon. If you beat Super Dragon he’ll give his title shot to you tonight. Anybody who wants the shot at the belt and a match against Super Dragon can come on down here.”

The three men don’t wait long for Sonjay Dutt to come out from the back. Dutt slides into the ring and faces off against Dragon and a ref comes out to start the match.

OA: 53

Guppie: “We have an impromptu match right here as Super Dragon takes on Sonjay Dutt.”

Patterson: “Dutt is brave but he may have bitten off more than he can chew. Dutt is a great high flyer but Super Dragon is without a doubt a brutal wrestler.”

Guppie: “It’s very true. I can’t wait to see these two men face off though and if Dutt does win he will get a big opportunity against Vito Thomaselli tonight.”

Segment 2: Super Dragon vs. Sonjay Dutt

The two men face off as the bell rings and Dragon rocks Dutt with a brutal forearm to the head. Dragon whips Dutt into the face and crushes him with a wicked lariat. Dragon makes the cover and gets a two count. Dragon continues to beat down on Dutt and just goes to town on him with some big strikes.

Patterson: “It looks like Super Dragon will take on Vito Thomaselli later tonight for the SMWA Championship in what should be an epic battle for the SMWA Championship.”

Guppie: “Up next we have Jimmy Jacobs taking on Deranged in a one on one match which should be quite a showcase.”

Patterson: “Jacobs had a close lose to Chance Beckett at the last show and Deranged just lost his partner Angeldust to a serious leg injury and has to really make an impact on his own.”

Patterson: “He also managed to kick out of a sitout fisherman buster from Deranged that I thought had finished the match.”

Guppie: “Our next match pits one half of the tag team champions, Roderick Strong, against Arik Cannon.”

Patterson: “This is Cannon’s first match in the SMWA but he’s well known in the midwest for his technical wrestling skills and he could really test Roderick in this match.”

Guppie: “Up next we have a big tag team match. Halo and Excalibur face off against the Second City Saints team of Colt Cabana and Ace Steel.”

Patterson: “Styles are going to clash in this match. Halo and Excalibur are big high flyers and Cabana and Steel are power wrestlers and we’ll see which team can get the win here.”

Guppie: “What a match between those two men. B-Boy manages to barely pull out a win with the injured leg.”

Patterson: “I thought B-Boy was done when Pawluk grabbed him with the Texas cloverleaf but he managed to wiggle out of the hold and put Pawluk down for the count.”

Guppie: “Up next we have a big match as Chance Beckett takes on Jimmy Rave. This should be a great encounter.”

Patterson: “Chance Beckett really needs to get a win as he is facing Vito Thomaselli next month in a big match and if Vito beats Super Dragon tonight it’s going to be for the SMWA Championship.”

Segment 7: The Gauntlet

Chance Beckett walks down to the ring and slides in. He faces off with Rave in the ring then calls for the mic.

Chance: “Jimmy don’t get yourself too excited about getting to wrestle against me. You are just a warm up match for my two out of three falls with Vito Thomaselli at the Third Anniversary Show. That match is going to end with me reclaiming the SMWA Championship that you beat me for Vito. That match is going to end with me being proclaimed the better man and all the fans know that it’s true. Tonight though I will fight you Jimmy Rave and tonight I will beat you. You may be good but I am great and that puts me ahead of you. I predict that tonight you will tap out and I’m going to make that prediction a reality.”

Notes: ***1/2

OA: 78 CR: 65 MQ: 91

Guppie: “What a match between those two men. Jimmy Rave did some nice work on the arm but Beckett just destroyed Rave’s leg and finished him off with a brutal single leg cab.”

Patterson: “Chance Beckett has some momentum going into his match against Vito next month and that may give him the advantage.”

Guppie: “Up next we have a tag team match and the winners will get a shot against the Strong Brothers at the Anniversary show. Michael Shane and Conrad Kennedy III will take on Josh Daniels and Sonjay Dutt.”

Patterson: “This is a big chance for both of these fairly new teams and they can really capitalize with a win here.”

Segment 9: The Future is now

Conrad Kennedy III walks out from the back and Michael Shane walks out behind him with his arm in a sling. The two men walk down and enter the ring and Shane takes a mic from the crowd.

Shane: “As you folks can see I have an injured arm. But don’t worry the Prime Time stable of CK Three and I have a plan. We have a secret weapon planned for a desperate time and my injury is just such a desperate time. Tonight the secret weapon will be taking my place tonight in the match and after CK and he win the match tonight they are going to go on to win the SMWA Tag Team Championships at the Third Anniversary Show. Tonight we unveil our secret weapon and the newest member of Prime Time. Fans welcome ‘Scrap Iron’ Adam Pearce.”

Adam Pearce walks out from backstage to some boos from the crowd. Pearce yells at some of the fans then enters the ring.

Shane: “This man is one of the toughest brawlers in the business today. Pearce is old school just like CK and I. Pearce is the big man holding down the foundation of Prime Time. Pearce is going to show all you fans tonight just how tough he is. Josh Daniels may be a hard hitter and Sonjay Dutt may be a great high flyer but they can’t deal with the team of Pearce and CK Three. They are a tag team that may be as dangerous as CK Three and I and tonight they are going to show off just how dominant Prime Time is going to be.”

Shane drops the mic and rolls out of the ring.

OA: 49

Guppie: “I hadn’t heard about Michael Shane being injured. Adam Pearce is a good brawler but I don’t know how well he’ll work with Kennedy in this match and this could be their downfall.”

Patterson: “By the same token though Daniels and Dutt have never teamed up before either. They may have had some more time to plan out their strategy though since they knew they were going to be a team longer and that could be the small advantage that they need.”

Segment 10: Adam Pearce & Conrad Kennedy III (Prime Time) vs. Josh Daniels & Sonjay Dutt (Tag Title Shot)

Daniels and Pearce start the match off and Daniels goes at Pearce with some big chops but Pearce just shakes them off and rocks Daniels with a forearm to the side of the head.

Notes: *3/4

OA: 60 CR: 42 MQ: 78

Guppie: “Pearce and Conrad did a nice job of working on the neck of Dutt in that match and it got them the win in the end.”

Patterson: “Daniels really tried to hold his team up but Conrad neutralized him at the end of the match and allowed Pearce to finish Dutt off.”

Guppie: “Those two will get a shot at the SMWA Tag Team Titles at the Third Anniversary Show. Now it’s time for our main event as Vito Thomaselli defends the SMWA Championship against Super Dragon.”

Patterson: “This is going to be an awesome match. Dragon is known for his brutally stiff brawling and Vito has been putting on a good showing as the SMWA Champion this year.”

Guppie: “Super Dragon had Vito Thomaselli on the ropes for a large portion of that match and Vito had to make the comeback from behind.”

Patterson: “But Vito did make the comeback and he managed to defeat Super Dragon and that means Chance Beckett will meet Vito Thomaselli for the SMWA Championship in a two out of three falls match at the Third Anniversary Show.”

Guppie: “It sure does. That’s all the action we have for you fans tonight, we hope you come and check out the Third Anniversary Show next week.”

Grammar/Spelling-There were a couple of times when you had a couple of run on sentences without any commas or apostrophes, which is definately a strike against grammar. However I didn't see any spelling mistakes, so not too bad on this category.

7 points

Storyline/Angles/Promos/Booking-Some pretty solid booking, angles, and storylines you have going on here. I just think that some of the promos were a bit too short for my liking.

13 points

Match Writing-Not the best part of your diary in my opinion, it just seems a bit too "wrestler A suplexes wrestler B, wrestler B kicks out of pin." Nothing horribly bad, but nothing extrodinary either.

7 points

Layout/Color Use-Nothing wrong here.

5 points

Backstory/Diary Updates-Not too much of a real backstory here rather than just a statement made by the owner. Also the diary updates aren't too bad, but could be made a lot better in my mind.

5 points

Total Score-37/60 points(or a 61.1% which translates into a D- letter Grade)

There's just some things with this diary that didn't keep my attention all to well. I believe that with some better promos, more interaction on your character backstage, and some more descriptive matches would definately improve this diary.

April 17, 2007

Announcer: Brian Guppie

Color Commentary: Mike Patterson

Guppie: “Welcome to the SMWA’s Third Anniversary Show! This is a big night and we have a great show lined up for you tonight and we have a huge main event with Chance Beckett challenging Vito Thomaselli for the SMWA Championship in a two out of three falls match.”

Patterson: “We have a lot of action here tonight and we’re going to get right into it and we start off with a four way match as Greg Pawluk, Sonjay Dutt, Halo and B-Boy face off.”

Guppie: “These are four really talented men and this match could be a chance for one of them to really break out of the pack and get some recognition here in the SMWA.”

Segment 1: Greg Pawluk vs. Sonjay Dutt vs. Halo vs. B-Boy

Halo and Dutt start the match and they start it with a fast paced exchange of moves and end it with an indy respect pose to applause from the crowd.

Notes: **

OA: 62 CR: 42 MQ: 82

Guppie: “B-Boy with an impressive victory in that four way match and he caught Dutt with a big shining wizard.”

Patterson: “The action was going fast and furious at the end of the match and B-Boy managed to come out with the victory.”

Guppie: “Up next we have a match that could be intriguing. Black Dragon and Arik Cannon facing off one on one.”

Patterson: “Cannon is a great technical wrestler from the midwest and Dragon is looking for a big break here in the SMWA.”

Segment 2: Black Dragon vs. Arik Cannon

The two men face off in the middle of the ring and lockup. Cannon goes behind Dragon and grabs him with a hammerlock but Dragon sits out and spins around grabbing Cannon with a front facelock.

Notes: *1/4

OA: 50 CR: 20 MQ: 80

Guppie: “Arik Cannon put on an impressive display in that match with some nice work on the leg of Dragon.”

Patterson: “Working on the leg really takes away the high flying ability that gives Black Dragon his advantage.”

Guppie: “That’s a good point and that’s why Cannon used that strategy. Up next we have Jimmy Jacobs taking on N8 Mattson.”

Patterson: “This could be a spectacular match. Both men are near the top of the rankings here in the SMWA and a win could be the thing they need to get back into title contention.”

Segment 3: Fallen Angel

N8 Mattson comes out from the back to the boos of the crowd. Mattson slides into the ring and grabs the mic.

Mattson: “It’s been a while since I’ve had the pleasure of talking to you wonderful fans. It’s been a time that I’ve enjoyed very much. I have the longest reign as SMWA Champion in history yet I have been ignored time and time again for title shots. That is a travesty! It makes a mockery of the time that I held the Championship. Vito Thomaselli was the man that managed to beat me and win the SMWA Championship. Vito you have went through some tough challengers lately and I respect that. I want to get a shot at the Title once again. I want to get some damn respect around here once again. I don’t care if Vito Thomaselli or Chance Beckett wins the match tonight. I want the belt and I will win tonight. After I win the match tonight I will go on to get a shot at the belt and I will win the Championship. Jacobs you have been here for quite some time and you know just how good I am in the ring. You will fall before the Righteous Might of my Lord tonight. Jacobs you can bring whatever you want to the match but tonight is the beginning of my return to the top and it is the beginning of a new age in the SMWA once again. It is the beginning of a Righteous Age!”

Notes: *3/4

OA: 65 CR: 55 MQ: 76

Guppie: “Jacobs and Mattson went back and forth and Mattson came out on top with a big powerbomb.”

Patterson: “With that victory Mattson has made himself a more serious competitor for the title but it takes more than one victory to earn a title shot.”

Guppie: “We’ll see what happens with that later but up next we have Matt Sydal taking on John Walters.”

Patterson: “We get the Midwest’s high flyer Sydal taking on an East Coast technical wrestling standout.”

Notes: *1/4

OA: 58 CR: 44 MQ: 73

Guppie: “John Walters put on a good showing against Sydal but Sydal caught him with a rollup to get the three count.”

Patterson: “John Walters has been trying to make an impact here in the SMWA but he hasn’t been able to get a win yet and that’s not a good thing for him.”

Guppie: “It’s definitely not. Up next we have Jimmy Rave taking on Deranged in what should be a fast paced encounter.”

Patterson: “Deranged has been struggling since Angeldust left the SMWA and tonight he may be able to make a change in that if he can beat Jimmy Rave who has been near the top of the card lately.”

Segment 6: Join the Rave

Jimmy Rave comes out from backstage to applause from the crowd. Rave walks around the ring giving the fans fives and then slides into the ring and takes a mic from the announcer.

Rave: “Some people may say that I’ve been having a tough time in the SMWA but I’ve been competing with the best wrestlers in the SMWA like Chance Beckett and Paul London. I’ve beaten Michael Shane and tonight I’m going to beat Deranged as well. Deranged you’ve been floundering on your own lately and I’m going to destroy you tonight. I’m going to put you down and secure my position at the top of the SMWA. Tonight I’m going to prove myself in the ring and I’m going to continue to prove myself over and over again. Deranged come on down and be the next contestant on the get your ass kicked show!”

Guppie: “What a contest between those two men. Both men threw out their best moves and Rave got the win with a big knee to the face on Rave for the finish.”

Patterson: “Rave wanted to prove something but as he said Deranged has really struggled on his own and a win over him isn’t a huge deal but a win is always a good thing and we’ll see if he can follow up on that.”

Guppie: “Up next The Strong Brothers defend the SMWA Championship against Adam Pearce and Conrad Kennedy the Third.”

Patterson: “Pearce and Kennedy won the shot at the champs in a tough match but they are going to have a completely different challenge here tonight.”

OA: 65 CR: 48 MQ: 82

Guppie: “Adam Pearce and Conrad Kennedy the Third win the SMWA Tag Team Championships thanks to the help of Michael Shane and their dirty tactics.”

Patterson: “They knew they weren’t going to win fairly so they cheated to give themselves the advantage and the third man on the outside was just what they needed.”

Guppie: “Our Tag Team Champions have just been knocked off and now Chance Beckett is going to hope that he can repeat that as he takes on Vito Thomaselli in a 2/3 falls match for the SMWA Championship.”

Patterson: “This should be a wild match and if it goes to a third fall it’s going to be a ladder match. These two guys have had a lot of problems among each other and this match is going to settle those issues.”

Segment 9: Vito Thomaselli ©vs. Chance Beckett (2/3 Falls, SMWA Championship)

The two men face off in the ring and they lockup. The two men struggle but neither man gains and advantage and they break off.

Both men get to their feet and Beckett blocks a punch from Vito and forearms him right in the face. Vito is staggered and Beckett shoots the left leg of Vito and holds onto it going right into a single leg crab but Vito is too close to the ropes and grabs them for a break. Beckett pulls Vito to his feet and goes for a shinbreaker but Vito reverses it by rolling behind Beckett and taking him over with a sunset flip for a two count.

Beckett grabs a chair from ringside and slams it against the leg of Vito crushing his leg against the ringpost and the ref calls for the bell. (18:13)

Patterson: “Chance Beckett just threw away the first fall by getting disqualifired.”

Guppie: “Beckett lost the first fall but he didn’t throw it away. He saw that Vito was getting the better of him and he just made sure that Vito’s legs aren’t going to be working well for the rest of the match and that’s going to give him an advantage.”

Beckett slides into the ring and pulls Vito to the center of the ring then grabs the legs and gets a figure four leglock. The two men struggle in the ring, Vito fights to get free as the fans cheer him on and Beckett keeps Vito trapped in the ring. Vito gives up on trying to get to the ropes and instead slowly tries to turn the hold over but Beckett blocks it taking Vito onto his back. Vito tries again and slowly turns Beckett over as the crowd starts to erupt. Vito feels it and flips the hold over and puts the pressure on Beckett but Beckett grabs the ropes and the ref sorts out the legs of the two combatants breaking up the hold. Vito pulls himself up to his feet barely putting any weight on his left leg. Beckett grabs the leg of Vito for a dragonscrew but Vito jumps up and nails him with an enziguri.

He caps it off with a shinbreaker and holds onto the leg and turns Vito over into a single leg crab and plants his knee on the back of Vito’s head and gets a fairly quick submission. (22:39)

Guppie: “Vito decided not to fight against this hold and is trying to save energy for the final fall, the ladder match.”

Patterson: “Unfortunately it may be too late for him to save energy as his legs have already taken a beating. He couldn’t even pick Beckett up for a DVD so how can he climb a ladder?”

Beckett rolls out of the ring and goes under the ring and grabs a ladder. He turns it side ways and gets ready to slide it in but Vito hobbles over and dropkicks it back into Beckett’s face sending him tumbling over on the outside. Beckett gets to his feet and Vito slingshots himself to the outside with a flying crossbody block to the delight of the crowd.

Beckettgets to his feet and Vito wallops him with an unprotected chairshot and Beckett falls to the floor and Vito holds the chair up as the crowd cheers. Vito throws the chair into the ring then picks the ladder up and slides that in as well. Vito stands by the apron and Beckett chop blocks his left leg dropping him to the floor. Beckett gets to his feet with blood flowing down his face. Beckett pulls Vito back up and turns him around towards the fans and picks him up for a shinbreaker and drops his left leg across the guardrail as the crowd boos. Beckett turns around and pulls a table out from underneath the ring and then pulls out a second one and he sets them up next to the apron. Beckett grabs Vito and pulls him up onto the apron. Beckett picks Vito up for a suplex but Vito flips over and lands inside the ring. Vito then grabs Beckett and tries to suplex him into the ring but Beckett blocks it. Beckett gets Vito up for a suplex to the outside but Vito comes back down and uses the momentum to suplex Beckett into the ring. Vito gets to his feet checking on his leg and then sets the ladder up. Vito starts climbing up the ladder slowly. Beckett gets to his feet and starts climbing up the other side. The two men get up to the top and start nailing each other with forearms and chops and then they get the ladder moving and Vito swings with a big punch and the ladder tips over and both men fall over the ropes and crash through the tables conveniently setup on the outside and hit the floor to thunderous cheers from the crowd as a ‘holy shit’ chant starts.

Patterson: “This match has got to be over! Those two men just fell over fifteen feet and crashed through those tables!”

Guppie: “I’ve never seen anything like this before in the SMWA! I don’t know what they are going to do with the match.”

The trainer, owner and several wrestlers come down to check on Vito and Beckett but both men wave off the help after about a minute both men are slowly getting to their feet and they start firing off some forearms that are missing some of the juice they had a while ago. The wrestlers start to come out from the back and watch in the entrance. The two men slide into the ring and Vito grabs a bloody Beckett and plants him with a bulldog. Vito drags himself over and grabs the chair and prepares to wallop Beckett but Beckett is too quick to his feet and dropkicks the chair into Vito’s face. Beckett grabs the ladder and then sets it up in the corner. He goes to irish whip Vito into it but Vito puts on the breaks. Beckett charges and Vito sends him into the ladder with a big backbody drop. Beckett rolls off the ladder and Vito grabs it and sets it up in the middle of the ring. Vito starts climbing and Beckett grabs him from behind and pulls him off slamming him to the mat. Beckett starts climbing up the ladder dragging his battered body slowly up. Vito gets to his feet using the ladder and hits Beckett with a few desperate forearm shots which are enough to stop his climbing. Vito climbs up a couple of rungs on the ladder then turns around and pulls Beckett off with a powerbomb that slams him hard to the mat. Vito drops down to the mat and falls to one knee as he holds onto the ropes to keep up. He slowly gets to his feet and pulls Beckett up as well. Vito quickly lifts Beckett up with a fireman’s carry and then drops him on his head with a DVD and both men are down as Vito is grabbing at his left leg. The crowd’s cheer rises as they start a ‘Vito’ chant and Vito seems to draw energy from it. Vito pulls himself up and crawls over to the ladder and then starts climbing up. He seems to be using only his arms but he gets up. He takes a few weary steps up to the top and gets a hand on the belt. Beckett gets to his feet on the mat and sees Vito at the top. Vito climbs up another rung and grabs the belt and yanks it off as Beckett tips the ladder over sending Vito crashing to the mat with the belt in his hands.

Beckett crawls over to where Vito is and helps him up to his feet and then gives him a hug as the two men lean against each other wearily and Beckett raises Vito’s hand in victory.

Winner: Vito Thomaselli (38:44)

Guppie: “Those two men just put each other through hell and now they truly respect each other. What a phenomenal contest!”

Patterson: “I thought for sure the match was over when they fell over the ladder and smashed through the tables but they fought on and Vito managed to climb up the ladder and grab the belt even with a severely injured leg.”

Guppie: “Those two men just showed what determination and championship material is and they both put their bodies on the line for the SMWA Championship and that’s a great way to end the show.”

Patterson: “It sure is. Be sure to check out smwawrestling.com for info on your favorite wrestlers and upcoming shows. For Brian Guppie, I’m Mike Patterson, thanks for supporting the SMWA!”

Battle Lines (Detroit)

March 6, 2007

Announcer: Brian Guppie

Color Commentator: Mike Patterson

Guppie: “Welcome to SMWA Battle Lines. We have a great lineup here tonight with a big six man tag main event as Jimmy Rave and the Strong Brothers take on the Prime Time team of Michael Shane, Conrad Kennedy the Third and Adam Pearce.”

Patterson: “And we are starting off the show with a bang as Sonjay Dutt takes on Ricky Reyes.”

Guppie: “Dutt is going to have to rely on his speed to get him past Reyes who packs a wallop with his kicks and he has some great submission skills coming from the Inoki Dojo in California.”

Segment 1:Raving Strong

Jimmy Rave walks out from backstage with both Strong Brothers right behind him. The three men walk down to the ring and give the fans fives before they slide in the ring and Rave takes the mic from the announcer.

Rave: “Tonight I have accepted the Roderick and Sedrick’s request for help. They have a big six man match against this new stable Prime Time and I want to help them. Shane, Conrad and Pearce are tough guys and they know how to get it done in the ring but tonight they are going to find that they aren’t going to be able to run right over everybody here in the SMWA. They are going to find out that there are people willing to stand up to them and knock them back down. They stole the Tag Team Titles at the last show. Conrad and Pearce had Shane’s help on the outside to give them the advantage but tonight there isn’t going to be any advantage. Tonight there are going to be three men on each team and skill is going to be the deciding factor. I don’t care how big Pearce is, how talented Conrad is or how crafty Shane is. Roderick is one of the toughest motherfuckers right now. Sedrick is a great junior style wrestler. He’s been to the Super Eight. Not many people can claim that honor. And me, well I’ve been wrestling all around the country and I’ve shown people what I can do in CZW, RoH, IWA:MS and elsewhere. Here in the SMWA I’ve taken Chance Beckett and Paul London to the limits. Tonight the Prime Time era is going to have a setback as they are going to suffer a big defeat in this tag match and they are going to realize that they can’t just bark they have to be able to bite back.”

The Strong Brothers stand beside Rave as he drops the mic and the three men walk to the back together.

OA: 64

Guppie: “Some big words by Jimmy Rave there in that promo and he seems confident about beating Prime Time tonight.”

Patterson: “You always have to be confident going into a match. Now we will be getting to the match between Dutt and Reyes and it should be a good one.”

Guppie: “We haven’t seen much of Reyes on his own here in the SMWA and he gets a chance to prove himself against Dutt tonight.”

Segment 2: Sonjay Dutt vs. Ricky Reyes

The two circle and Reyes throws out a snapkick that Dutt easily avoids. Dutt moves in and takes Reyes over with an armdrag. Reyes gets to his feet and Dutt takes him over with another armdrag. Dutt bounces off the ropes and Reyes tilt-a-whirls him and Dutt comes down with an armdrag that takes Reyes over. Reyes gets to his feet and Dutt nails him with a dropkick. Dutt continues with his fast paced assault until Reyes catches him going for a crossbody block and drops him across his knee with a backbreaker. Reyes whips Dutt into the corner and charges nailing him with a big running forearm. Reyes peppers Dutt with some kicks to the midsection then snapmares him out of the corner and delivers a sharp kick to the base of Dutt’s spine. Reyes whips Dutt into the ropes and Dutt springboards off the second rope and hits Reyes with a back elbow. Dutt goes up to the top rope and jumps off with a missile dropkick that gets him a two count. Dutt pulls Reyes up and Reyes rails him with a European uppercut.

Notes: *1/2

OA: 61 CR: 46 MQ: 76

Guppie: “Reyes really put a hurting on Sonjay but his high speed offense allowed him to make a comeback and get the win with a beautiful dragonranna.”

Patterson: “If Reyes had targeted Sonjay’s legs he would have been able to take away a major part of his arsenal and Reyes has some nice moves that work the leg as well.”

Guppie: “Reyes may have underestimated Sonjay in that match. Our next match pits two great technical wrestlers against each other as Arik Cannon takes on Greg Pawluk.”

Patterson: “Both men really need to get some momentum going. They’ve had some nice showings but haven’t been able to get any wins going their way.”

Segment 3: Arik Cannon vs. Greg Pawluk

The two men start the match with a lockup and Cannon takes control as he goes behind with a hammerlock. Pawluk goes under and reverses it into his own hammerlock. Cannon returns in kind and goes into an arm wringer. Pawluk rolls forward then kips up to his feet and turns it into his own arm wringer. Cannon rolls forward and gets ready to kip up but Pawluk drops down turning the hold into a cross armbreaker and Cannon quickly gets a foot on the bottom rope breaking up the hold. Both men get to their feet and Cannon shakes out his arm. They lockup again and Pawluk goes behind with a rear waistlock and picks Cannon up and slams him down to the mat then spins around into a front facelock.

Cannon manages to grab Pawluk’s arm and goes for the crossface but Pawluk keeps his head down then rolls forward breaking Cannon’s grip and both men get up to their feet and face off.

The match starts to pickup as the two men have gotten past their feeling out process. The two guys go back and forth with some nice moves but neither man can gain a decided advantage. Cannon makes the first big move as he catches Pawluk with a glimmering warlock and makes a cover for a two count. Cannon pulls Pawluk to his feet and whips him into the ropes and grabs him with a sleeper hold. Pawluk fights the hold and manages to slip behind Cannon enough to drop him on his head with a backdrop driver. Cannon is slow to his feet and he gives Pawluk enough time to recover.

Winner: Arik Cannon (11:24)

Notes: **3/4

OA: 64 CR: 38 MQ: 90

Guppie: “What a display of technical wrestling by those two men. They went back and forth for a long time in the beginning and even near the end nobody had really gained a clear advantage and Cannon only managed to win with a quick rollup.”

Patterson: “I would love to see those two guys face off again and really put their technical skills on display. That was just a taste of what both men can do.”

Guppie: “Up next we have the other Havana Pitbull, Rocky Romero, taking on Chris Sabin. Romero, much like Reyes, has some devastating kicks and submissions as they are both training in the Inoki Dojo.”

Patterson: “Sabin however is one of the best junior heavyweights on the indy scene and has been a multiple time NWA:TNA X-Division Champion.”

Segment 4: Rocky Romero vs. Chris Sabin

The two men start off circling each other and Romero bounces around on his feet. Sabin moves in and Romero pegs him with a kick to the side of the head that staggers Sabin and shoots in with a double leg takedown. Romero gets the mount position and just lands a series of brutal forearms on Sabin who desperately tries to cover up until the ref pulls Romero off him. Romero backs off and Sabin gets to his feet and hides in the corner. Sabin comes out of the corner and locks up with Romero then takes him over with a headlock takedown. Romero escapes with a headscissors and Sabin kips up escaping the hold. Romero stays down on the mat and rolls himself up and does the lady of the lake. Sabin looks around confused then takes the hand at the crowd’s urging and Romero flips Sabin over and cinches the hold on the arm of Sabin. Sabin crawls forward and grabs the ropes with his free left hand. Romero pulls Sabin to his feet and goes for an irish whip but Sabin reverses it sending Romero into the ropes. Romero comes off and drops Sabin with a shoulder block. The two men go back and forth with a fast paced series of moves. The two men pick up the intensity of their moves and start really trying to knock the other man out. Sabin charges at Romero and goes for a spinning head scissors but Romero counters it into a sidewalk slam. Romero grabs the left arm with a keylock. Sabin spins around and manages to hit Romero with some kicks to the back of the head to break up the hold. Sabin gets up to his feet and Romero takes him down with a single arm DDT. Romero continues to work on the arm of Sabin and Sabin struggles on the mat taking a beating. Sabin breaks free of an arm wringer then explodes with a big dropkick that sends Romero to the mat. Sabin climbs up to the top rope and comes off with a missile dropkick but Romero sidesteps it letting Sabin crash into the mat. Romero grabs the left arm of Sabin and drops down into a cross armbreaker and Sabin taps out.

Winner: Rocky Romero (9:36)

Notes: *3/4

OA: 64 CR: 51 MQ: 77

Guppie: “Sabin put on a good effort but Romero’s work on the arm was just too much and allowed him to get the win.”

Patterson: “Romero puts in a good effort in that singles match and I can’t wait to see him in action again.”

Guppie: “Up next we finally have the former Special K members facing off. Deranged takes on Jay Lethal formerly known as Hydro who was the leader of Special K.”

Patterson: “This match has been in the making for quite some time and I can’t wait to see it. Lethal has really proved himself as a singles competitor but Deranged has had some problems with the transition from tag team to singles wrestling.”

Guppie: “That’s very true. Deranged has had some great showings in singles action but he hasn’t been able to put his opponent away and secure the victory.”

Segment 5: Jay Lethal vs. Deranged

Lethal and Deranged face off in the center of the ring and go toe to toe and neither man is backing down. Deranged nails Lethal with a forearm and Lethal responds with his own forearm and then the two men start unloading on each other with knife edge chops. Lethal gains the advantage with the chops then snapmares Deranged over and grabs him with a rear chinlock. Deranged fights up to his feet and hits Lethal with a couple of elbows to the midsection then bounces off the ropes and Lethal knocks him down with a shoulder block. Deranged gets up to his feet and Lethal picks him up and drops him with a powerslam and follows up with an elbow drop for a two count. Lethal pulls Deranged up to his feet and whips him into the ropes. Deranged comes off the ropes with a spinning front kick that sends Lethal to the mat.

Patterson: “Deranged looked really good in the match but he just couldn’t overcome Lethal’s strength advantage.”

Guppie: “We have big match next as Nate Mattson takes on Austin Aries. Aries is an explosive wrestler and has some of the best offense going today.”

We’ve almost killed each other in the ring and around the arena. At our next show we’re not going anywhere though. We’re going to stay right in the ring. Vito I want you one on one in a steel cage match! That’s right, I said a steel cage match. The home of brutality and violence. We’ve wrestled until one of us couldn’t stand up any longer. This time we will meet in the cage. One on one surrounded by steel. I won’t have anybody interfere on my behalf. I know the way you are and I know that when you here this challenge you will accept it. I know you are the type of man who will do anything to prove how good you are. In fact I don’t want just the title I want some revenge against you. I don’t want to be the man who lost the last match in our series. Tonight if I don’t beat Austin Aries you don’t have to put the belt on the line if you don’t want to. If you don’t feel like it you don’t have to put the belt on the line if I win. If the management doesn’t think I deserve a title shot I won’t take one but I will meet you in the steel cage. I want this match more than I want the belt and I want to show you that I am the best once and for all.”

You have a reputation of taking wrestlers to the limits and working them over and picking a weakness. You are one of the best technical wrestlers in the world but I’m not scared. I’ve been in the ring with Super Dragon and some of the toughest wrestlers in the world. Your partner Black Dragon has some experience in Michinoku Pro and has competed against some of the best high flyers. Tonight though you face off against Halo and Excalibur. I’m one of So-Cal’s finest and Halo is a great high flyer from the East Coast. You guys are good singles wrestlers but we are a great tag team and tonight you guys are going down for the count. Tonight we gain a big victory as we put Chris Hero down in his debut here.”

Shane: “Jimmy Rave I heard what you said earlier in the night and I have no fucking idea why you want to get involved with us. The Strong Brothers found out at the last show that we aren’t to be messed around with. We showed them what we are all about and you should have learned a lesson from that. This wasn’t supposed to be your fight. But if you want to insert yourself into this match that’s just fine with me. You have chosen to bring down hell upon yourself and you just remember that when we leave you laying with the Strongs in the middle of the ring bleeding.

“Speaking of you Strong Brothers you’ve been complaining to a lot of people about the way you lost your titles. Actions speak louder than words, so if you want to do something about it show us tonight in this ring. The titles are around the waists of Pearce and Conrad for a reason. They are around their waists because they are damn good. Adam Pearce clearly out powered you guys in that ring. Roderick you can talk about being the messiah of the backbreaker all you want but Pearce was too much for you to handle and he took it to you in that match. He played your power game and he trumped you. Conrad has talent on loan from God and he showed that. He took both of you guys to the mat and showed you up. Plus they had me on the outside helping them out. Luckily for you guys I was out with an arm injury and I couldn’t take you guys out myself. However my arm is fine now and you two will have to deal with me in the ring and I guarantee you are going to like that even less than you liked me on the outside helping these two guys. Tonight Prime Time works together and we are going to show you three men why we are prime time and we are going to show you what pain is all about!”

Now I’m going to get to something more important than me whooping your ass here in the ring. I’m talking about the newest member of Prime Time. I’m talking about one of the best wrestlers today in the independent circuit. I’m talking about another wrestler who has recognized the greatness of Prime Time. That man is none other than the ‘New Age Punisher’ B-Boy.”

B-Boy comes out from backstage and walks down to the ring.

Shane: “It’s no coincidence that B-Boy is facing Roderick Strong tonight. That was my doing. I talked to the management here at the SMWA and I told them to book this match and they did it because I told them to. Roderick you are going to find out what stiff is all about when B-Boy starts landing his brutal strikes on you. I know you have a reputation for being a hard hitter but you can’t compare to B-Boy here. B-Boy you go in the back and get ready for your match tonight. I’m not going to need any help taking care of Sedrick so you go back to the rest of Prime Time and get ready to celebrate my victory and all our other victories here tonight.”

OA: 71 CR: 56 MQ: 87

Guppie: “Pearce and Kennedy may have won the tag titles with the help of Michael Shane but they retained them here tonight on their own.”

Patterson: “It was a close one though and the Saints have really shown some great work as a team. Unfortunately for them it wasn’t enough to become the champs here tonight.”

Segment 8: Steel Danger

The cage is mostly setup when Vito Thomaselli walks out from backstage and stands by the entrance with a mic.

Vito: “At the last show Nate you challenged me to a match for this title. You challenged me to step into the steel cage with you. And I accepted as you and everybody else knew that I would. I never let my fans down and I wouldn’t deny them the chance to see such an epic match. You got it right when you said we’ve brawled all around the arena. I’ve bled all over the place in my matches with you. I’ve had some intense technical matches in this ring and I’ve had some brutal hard hitting matches. But nothing compares to the matches I’ve had with you. The blood loss and the weapons being used are a total drain on the body. I’ve absorbed more damage in my matches against you than I thought I would be able to stand. I don’t know how I’ve been able to go on fighting and pin you. We’ve traded victories against each other as the stakes rise and the brutality rises as well. I thought brawling around the ring was as tough as we were going to get but being tapped in a ton of steel surrounding the ring could be even worse. I’ve seen what the cage can do to a body.

“I’ve seen men bleed buckets inside of the cage. I’ve seen Jay Briscoe wrestle in a cage match and having blood just pour out of his forehead and he kept on fighting. I’ve seen Kurt Angle come off the top of the cage with a moonsault and slam into the mat and he kept wrestling. I’ve seen men have their bloody faces raked across the steel of the cage and they kept on fighting! And no matter what you do to me in this cage Nate I will keep on fighting! It’s not about this belt. It’s about respect dammit! I’ve earned respect from everybody I’ve stepped into the ring with but you never seem to give me any. You interfere in my matches and you make public challenges forcing me to accept even if you don’t deserve a shot. This cage match may be the most brutal match I’ve ever been in my wrestling career but I’m going to survive it and it’s going to make me a stronger wrestler. This cage is intimidating Nate. I’ve seen it on television but seeing live is a completely different thing. I’ve conquered my fear of the cage. I’m willing to bleed in that ring. I’m willing to stain the mat with my blood and keep on going. If you want to beat me you’re going to have to be willing to go to any lengths and I don’t know if you have that in you. N8 if you want this title you are going to have to finish me off and you need to show no mercy. I’m resolved to that course of action! I’m resolved to finishing this issue once and for all in the cage and I’m going to put you down for the three count. If I can’t earn respect I’m going to beat it into you!”

Vito throws the mic down and Mattson charges out from the back. Mattson grabs Vito from behind and runs him face first into the cage.

OA: 62

Guppie: “We’re back for the main event and it’s going to be a brutal fight between these two men who have had some of the most brutal matches in the history of the SMWA.”

Patterson: “This match could redefine what brutality is in the SMWA and these two men are going to keep fighting until one of them can’t fight anymore.”

Guppie: “Indeed. Not only are they fighting to prove themselves they are fighting for the SMWA Championship and despite what both men have said that does matter.”

Patterson: “This is going to be a car wreck. Halo, Spade and Dutt love to go to the air and they are all going to be flying around the ring in this match. I don’t know if Pawluk is going to try and match their high flying attack or stick with his technical base.”

Guppie: “I don’t know what Johnny Spade is going to do either. He’s been out of action for quite some time and may have changed up his offense but we’ll see what he does when the match starts.”

OA: 59 CR: 49 MQ: 84

Guppie: “What an amazing match. Those four men threw out everything they had all at once and just kept going until Halo managed to get nail a big corkscrew senton for the three count.”

Patterson: “Pawluk tried to bring his technical skills into play but he couldn’t get it done and went with the high flying but he couldn’t compete with the other three in that respect and that hurt him in the match.”

Guppie: “Indeed it did. Up next we have Arik Cannon taking on Jimmy Jacobs. This should be an exciting match as well. Cannon has been doing pretty good lately but he needs a good showing against a wrestler of the caliber of Jacobs and tonight could be his night.”

Patterson: “Jimmy Jacobs is capable of taking big beatings and still coming back. Cannon can deliver some great offense to a body part but we’ve seen Jacobs fight through pain before and he can do it again.”

Notes: *3/4

OA: 54 CR: 44 MQ: 79

Guppie: “Cannon pulls out a victory over the tough Jimmy Jacobs. Jacobs really rallied at the end of the match but Cannon did a nice job on his neck and finished him off with a big belly to back suplex off the top rope.”

Patterson: “Cannon really showed something in this match and he picked up a big win here.”

Guppie: “Up next Michael Shane takes on former SMWA Champion Vito Thomaselli. This could be a barn burner.”

Patterson: “This match could go either way. Shane may not have any big wins here in the SMWA so far but he’s got a lot of natural skill and he takes after his uncle Shawn Michaels.”

Segment 3: A Horrible Loss

Michael Shane walks out from the backstage and slides into the ring then grabs a mic from the ring announcer.

Shane: “At the last show I talked a big game and unfortunately I couldn’t back it up in the ring. I pride myself on being an honest and fair person and Sedrick Strong just beat me. I’m could make up stupid excuses but I’m going to tell the truth. Honestly my mind wasn’t in the match. Sedrick focused just on his wrestling and I’ve been concerned about my matches and making sure the members of Prime Time all get a fair shake here in the SMWA. It isn’t easy to make sure people get treated fairly around here so that takes up a large part of my time. Sedrick had more time to prepare and was able to focus on the match and that gave him the edge and gave him the victory. Tonight, I didn’t have to worry about Pearce and Kennedy. They are the SMWA Tag Team Champions and they have a great connection together and they can defeat any team here in the SMWA. B-Boy was an easy fix, getting him a high profile match against Austin Aries was simple as it was something that everybody wanted to see.

“I got myself this match against a former Champion. Vito Thomaselli is a great talent and I’ve set a great challenge up for myself. I want to prove that I’m the best guy here in the SMWA and I can do that by facing the best. I’ve been preparing this match for quite some time. I’ve been watching Vito’s matches and I know what to do to beat him. I know what he does and I know what his weaknesses are. Vito, tonight your losing streak will continue as you won’t be able to beat me with my preparation.”

Guppie: “Those two men were going back and forth the entire match. Michael Shane looked like he was gaining an advantage near the end but Vito finished him off with a death valley driver off the top rope.”

Patterson: “Nobody can keep going after a move like that. Michael Shane may have lost another match but he looked really good in that match.”

Guppie: “Another Prime Time member wrestles next and maybe he’ll have better luck as B-Boy takes on Austin Aries.”

Patterson: “I’m sure that B-Boy’s going to have to be on the top of his game to beat Aries. Aries is one of the most explosive wrestlers on the indy scene right now and B-Boy is going to need his best strikes to win here.”

Notes: **1/4

OA: 59 CR: 49 MQ: 83

Guppie: “Another close match. Aries and B-Boy were trading some really high impact moves in that match and you can bet that both of them are going to be sore in the morning.”

Patterson: “The really impressive thing about Austin Aries is that he takes moves like the crucifix pin and the sidewalk slam and he really adds impact to some moves that normally don’t do much.”

Guppie: “Being able to really dish out punishment when your opponent isn’t expecting it is always a good skill to have. Our next match is a rematch from last years Midwest Invitational as Jimmy Rave takes on Chance Beckett.”

Patterson: “Chance Beckett beat Jimmy Rave in the semi-finals and then went on to win the tournament against Matt Sydal. They had a close match last time and I can’t wait to see who gets the win here.”

Segment 6: Beckett’s Still Here

Chance Beckett walks out from backstage to a mixed reaction from the crowd. He walks down to the ring and slides in then takes the mic from the announcer.

Beckett: “Vito Thomaselli and I had a battle at the Third Anniversary Show. We fought with no regard for our lives or our health. I mercilessly tried to destroy his leg during that match and I succeeded but Vito kept on fighting back and I respected him for that. After the match I shook his hand and gave him a hug and he deserved that. We fought through hell in that match and the fact that he could still get up on his feet and climb a ladder to grab the SMWA Championship speaks a lot for his character. After he beat me in that brutal match he defended the belt in another brutal match when he took Nate Mattson on inside the steel cage and he came up short in that match. I’ve been friends with Mattson as we fought against Vito Thomaselli. But after that victory Mattson just took the belt and left. He didn’t care about Vito or the match. No matter what he said he wanted victory and he wanted the belt. I can understand that because I want that belt too. Nate Mattson as long as you have that belt around your waist I’m coming for you. If anybody takes that belt away from you I’ll be coming for them as well.

“Tonight, I’m in the ring with Jimmy Rave. Jimmy I’ve beaten you twice before. Once in the Midwest Invitational Tournament and the second time we met I beat you once again. Both times though you took me to the limits. You are definitely skilled in the ring but you have to match me and that’s not something many people can do. You’ve gotten two chances before and tonight is your third chance. People often say the third time is the charm but I’m going to make sure that saying doesn’t hold true for you. When you hit this ring I have my plan and I’m going to drop you down to this mat right here and I’m going to make you tap out plain and simple. I’ve done it before and I guarantee that I’m going to do it one more time.”
