It was an intense night as the Road to WrestleRage gets under way and as always Fox Lake was a hot crowd. Before the action kicked off though, the night began with a 10 bell salute to fallen wrestling great- Walter "Killer" Kowalski who passed away Aug 30th.
Things got underway with the M.O.B. representing in full force as Tommy Capone came out with Justin James, Trevor Blanchard, Black Iron, and Jade filling the ring with the black and white. As Scott Spade came out with Miss Taylor Made to begin the match Justin James offered to cancel the match if Spade would take the opportunity that Ruff Crossing turned down, and join up with the M.O.B. Spade looked to be considering the offer, but then wiped his hind-end with the offered shirt and threw it out to the crowd and the match between Spade and Capone was underway.
Spade dismantled Capone for most of the match, with the M.O.B. assisting Capone where they could, but over confidence kept them from being able to keep Spade down. An Ace Crusher put Capone down and gave Spade the win after which, the whole M.O.B. stormed the ring to assault Spade until Ruff Crossing came out to make the save. Crossing offered his hand to Spade and the two shook, followed by Crossing raising Spade's hand in triumph.
Next was Andrew MacLeod w/ Eric Freedom taking on the returning Chris Chaos. Chaos quickly got under the skin of MacLeod by taunting his "skirt" (it's a kilt I was informed to clarify to our readers by a... shall we say- threatening source) and kep the crowd firmly in his corner, but MacLeod and Freedom did what they could to keep Chaos on his toes, ducking in and out of the ring and taking turns attacking while the other would distract the ref. After a considerable beating, Chaos managed a Chaos Effect out of nowhere leaving both men laying for a 7 count. MacLeod nailed Chaos with a top rope-supported DDT, and then went for a 2nd rope suplex, but Chaos countered into a neck breaker. Freedom pulled ref Bob "Pee Wee" Parrella out of the ring, but Chris Cairo came out to chase Freedom away and while MacLeod tried to take Chaos out, Chaos dodged to roll him up for the pin.
Regional Champion King Kanoa came out with Queen Melanie Cruise to tell the crowd about his being robbed of the opportunity to be a Triple Champion when Jimmy Blaze eliminated him from the POWW Royal in Oswego to determine who would face Eric Freedom for the World Title in Fox Lake that night. Blaze came out and countered that in fact Kanoa cost him the shot by dragging him over the top rope after him. Blaze said since he's the boss, he's going to go ahead and abuse his power by giving himself a Regional Title shot against Kanoa right there and then. Blaze stayed in full control for a brunt of the match and looked like he might have it won following a fallaway slam, but Kanoa said there was something wrong with his eye prompting ref Parrella to send Blaze over to a corner of the ring and assess Kanoa's situation. Blaze set up a chair to sit in and wait, but while the ref called over ring announcer Mr. Riccolo to discuss what was happening, Cruise jumped into the ring and slammed Blaze into his own chair allowing Kanoa to crawl over to make the pin and retain his Title.
Blaze then got on the mic and said that he's the boss, and since he's the boss he has a considerable amount of stroke in the company, and he was going to use it to do the following things- on October 4th Kanoa and Cruise would be facing a team of Blaze, and the bosses friend, you might know her from TNA as Ms. Payton Banks, Rain. and if Blaze and Rain win, Blaze will get another shot at Kanoa's Regional Title, but if Kanoa and Cruise win, Blaze and Rain will shave their heads. But before any of that goes down- Blaze will be in Woodstock on the 20th taking on... Melanie Cruise.
The 4th match of the night saw Wild Mayhem taking on the fresh team of Dehok and X-Con w/ James Staublein. Con and Dehok came out to show that they were not just a random pairing, but an actual cohesive unit with Dehok wearing one of Con's prison jumpsuits, and Con wearing matching facepaint and Dehok's trademark pentagram pants. As matched as they appeared, Mikey Wild and Matt Mayhem proved that they were very much on the same page by opening the match with a series of quick tags moving swiftly and gaining offense against the larger opponents, but it wasn't long before size and strength played a part in the battle and Wild into a world of pain being beaten on by Con and Dehok who worked hard to keep the ref distracted and keep Mayhem from being able to tag in or make the save. Mayhem finally did tag in however while Wild went off the apron to attempt to put Con down, but he was caught in the air and slammed against the ring post as both Con and Dehok then entered the ring to nail a tandem sideslam on Mayhem for the pinfall.
X-Con's manager James Staublein then took the mic and announced loud and clear to the fans and the roster that his guys were the team to beat in POWW, and even though Tag Champions Joey Cece and Terry Allen weren't there that night, he was still calling them out for a Tag Title shot for his team.
Nick H. came out to the ring next and informed the fans at Fox Lake that he was now on the lookout for new talent to rebuild his team in his goal of being the manager of Champions here in POWW.
Justin James comes back out to the ring with Black Iron and Jade at his side to face off against Ruff Crossing w/ Nikki. James attacked Crossing before the bell but Crossing quickly turned it around as the match began. Crossing maintained control even with James diving to the outside from time to time to confer with his M.O.B. stablemates, but when James used Nikki as a distraction he was able to get a shoulder block to Crossing's knees sending Crossing to the floor before getting him back into the ring to continue working over Crossing's left knee. As James distracted the ref, Iron and Jade crotched Crossing on the ring post, followed by James repeating the act, following it up with a figure 4 leg lock around the ring post. The M.O.B. then surrounded Nikki while Crossing was down, but Nikki held her own with a series of slaps and low blows. Back in the ring James came back after Crossing, but was quickly reversed and then put away with the pump handle slam for the pin. The M.O.B. ran in from all sides with Blanchard and Capone joining the frey. Spade came out next to return the favor from earlier in the night by making the save for Crossing, but the 4 on 2 odds proved overwhelming. POWW owner Jimmy Blaze came out, being careful to stay back 15 feet from the ring due to the restraining order against him, and sent security in to keep all the men separated. Blaze told the M.O.B. he had some big news for them- at WrestleRage 6 Justin James, Black Iron, Trevor Blanchard, and Tommy Capone will all team up to take on a 4 man team to be announced made up of anyone looking to dismantle the M.O.B. from the past, present, and/or future of POWW. And dismantled the M.O.B. will be should they lose the match.
The main event of the night saw Chris Cairo challenging World Champion Eric Freedom w/ Andrew MacLeod for the title.
Freedom mocked a fan by dumping a box of Froot Loops she had brought to the show out all over her while making his entrance. Cairo didn't wait for the bell before taking it to Freedom with dropkicks and a 312, but Freedom retaliated with a face breaker and a headbutt to the neather region. Freedom and MacLeod traded off chokes on the challenger, keeping Cairo from gaining any momentum. The match continued back and forth, seeing Cairo dive over the top rope onto the Champ and his cohort, and Freedom using his night stick to knock out Cairo to go for the cover, but the ref stayed distracted, ordering MacLeod to the back. Freedom set up a table in the ring, but Cairo nailed the Bum Rush and was going to go for the pin, but MacLeod came back out to drag Freedom out of the ring and the two men headed to the back allowing Cairo the victory by count-out, but keeping Freedom in possession of the World Title.
Freedom took the mic and told Cairo that since he won, maybe he deserves another shot at the title, but if he wants it, he'll have to earn it by facing Freedom's challenge- Cairo must face the entire POWW Roster in a POWW Royal in Woodstock on the 20th, with Cairo being the 1st entrant and needing to be the last man standing. Cairo accepted the challenge to end the show.
There's alot of things heating up right now to bring POWW full steam into WrestleRage, there's only one way to keep up-
I'll see you at the show!
