3XWrestling Downtown Destruction II - Des Moines Social Club - June 4, 2010[/i]
If you haven't already heard, Ring of Honor World champion Tyler Black competed at Downtown Destruction II in a total surprise. What did all you fans think of the show?
RESULTS:
1. "The Right Price" Aaron Masterson beat Hunter Matthews with 15 seconds left in a 5-minute challenge by reversing Matthews piledriver attempt into a jacknife rollup pin. Hunter took the mic prior to the match and said there was no way Masterson could beat him in 5 minutes. Matthews has now been pinned by Masterson twice.
Promo - The Gentlemen's Club came out and manager/3XW Commissioner Todd Countryman announced that it was now a 5-on-4 elimination tag wiith him as the Gentlemen's Club additional partner. Their opponents then came out accompanied by former 3XW President Skylar Pierce. Sterling explained that being a former member of the Gentlemen's Club, he knew they would be up to something tonight, so he contacted Skylar, the former 3XW president. Skylar received the OK from the Board of Directors to add an additional member to Sterling's team...none other than Ring of Honor World champion Tyler Black!!
2. Brady A. Dezire beat Buck Albright following a schoolboy rollup with his feet on the ropes for leverage.
3. "The Viking Warrior" Kraig Keesaman successfully defended the 3XW Pure Wrestling title over Nate Bash by drilling him with a Nordic Spike after crotching Bash on the top turnbuckle in an excellent match. Keesaman has now not been pinned or submitted in 24 months.
4. "The Rebel" Jeremy Wyatt successfully defended the 3XW Heayweight title over Tyler Cook, submitting him to a crossface. Wyatt is now the longest reigning Heavyweight champion in 3XW history.
- Following the match, Rory Fox came out and officially announced he would be using his Gauntlet for the Gold title shot against Wyatt at the 5 Year Anniversary Event in July. Wyatt said "fine, but I choose the stipulation. It's going to be a....." and then Wyatt walked away.
5. "The Rockstar" Jimmy Rockwell successfully defended the 3XW Cruiserweight championship over Tony Sly, Ben Sailer and Matty Starr after pinning Sly with a Rock n' Rollup.
- Following the match, Kraig Keesaman unsuccessfully tried to attack Rockwell with his axe and Rockwell announced that they will be having a title unification match at the 5 Year Anniversary event in July.
6. Sir Bradley Charles and Jon West beat Sexy and Smooth (Ryan Slade and A.J. Smooth) after West distracted the Canadians enough for SBC to stop the Fastball Special by pushing Slade into Smooth, causing Smooth to crotch himself on the top turnbuckle and flail helplessly while Charles pinned Slade with an O'Conner Roll. Huge upset, as the No. 1 contenders to the 3XW Tag Team titles lost to a first-time team of rookies. Impressive showing by West and SBC.
7. Rory Fox defeated "The Laotian Sensation" Ricky Kwong (with "The Laotian Liaison" Chad Mylan and Mylan's new MMA secruity guard) with a Fox Bomb
- After the match, Wyatt attacked Fox with a ladder and announced that their Heavyweight title match in July will be a ladder match
8. 10-Man Elimination Tag Team match - The Gentlemen's Club (Brian Ash, Gage Octane, Devin Carter, Casanova and Todd Countryman) beat Mark Sterling, "The Unbreakable" Zach Thompson, Maddog McDowell, Krotch and Ring of Honor World champion Tyler Black. It came down to Ash and Thompson and Ash pinned Thompson despite a valiant effort on the part of Thompson. Black was eliminated when the referee saw him hit Ash with a title belt that Ash tried to hit him with first and Sterling was DQ'd for refusing to release a Sharpshooter on Octane after Octane had already tapped out. Thompson then pinned Octane before taking the final fall to Ash.
After the bout, the Gentlemen's Club continued to assault Thompson, who was saved by all his partners to the cheers of the crowd.
