AAW 10/26 QUICK RESULTS

They may need them as backup in case of contract dispute with Phil & DSH.

Very R rated, very long (for AAW) show. Mostly positive I will admit I was gassed at the end and left right after the final pin. I walked right past Kellie Skater and (I think) Courtney Rush instead of hitting on them. Fail on me.

Krotch's gyrations aren't over anymore in Berwyn. The Moondogs manager looks like young Ed Chuman. Sorta. Wagner and Dean had an OK outing. Dean could afford to tighten up the midsection a bit.

Lawrence got mostly face reaction. Rollup pin, Danny carried it.

Video promo: Silas laid out the Moondogs and told Davey to put the title shot up. I'm not quite sure if Davey put it up. I would normally not dig one man beating up three guys, but since the Dogs are preshow, it didn't hurt much.

O'Reilly vs. Miller was a bit too short. I still think Miller should be pushed higher, but he may not be ready yet. His entrance music is zen-techno.

ACH vs. Shane was better. Gave it some time. Shane hit a nice superkick on ACH, who sold it by falling flat on his back, like Rashad Evans nailing Sean Salmon. Only a two count, but I've seen worse selling. Scarlett pulled ACH off a rope, Shane got the win. Colt cut the promo on screen. He wins next month, he gets Scarlett for a week and plans "dirty dirty things." So I guess AAW sanctions sexual assault.

6-man basically a setup for Eastman's return. Walker didn't do much, but his lariat to get the pin was brutal. After the beatdown, Joey came out ("Hey motherf'ers!) with pool cue and broke it up. He was more over than his buddies, maybe except for Marion.

SHIMMER 4-way was not over. Athena won with O-Face on Nicole. Nothing obscene.

Davey vs. Silas was my MOTN, with Davey winning with a rollup after reversing Silas' rollup try. Davey actually gyrated his crotch at Val Malone. Somebody in the crowd said Davey had folders full of women, a takeoff on a Romney line. Davey said "I do." Silas doesn't pull that strong style stuff, but they gelled well.

Corbin/Stache vs. Mannix/Crane with Veg-o-frog-splash. They need a name for that finisher. Joey gave a stunner to somebody. I can't stand the manager getting over on the talent.

Saraya was surrounded by four skinny workers as personal security. As a visual, this was more than effective. She tore up a few signs. You don't know what Saraya will do, but nobody was murdered. Chif slammed Saraya head-first into the steps a dozen times. Truth spit green mist, Saraya got win.

Afterwards, Truth set up his match with Chif by saying women should only talk when their mouths are full...and gagging. And this from a guy with a Jesus tattoo on his back. That should be an interesting blowoff, pardon the pun. Hope his neck holds up.

Cannon vs. Jacobs get the win after a brawl in the crowd and a double-kick on Emerson. Decent. After trying to one-up each other with posing, they proceed to kiss each other, make various sexual jokes. Not focus on Irish Airborne, not a lot of furthering of their feud. Cannon may have a drinking problem. Jacobs actually ripped off a WWE storyline by quoting Daniel Bryan's "I'm the tag team champions" line, which got a "yes" chant.

The main event didn't quite move me. I think this ROH/Japan-strong style multiple strikes with not much selling is starting to wear thin with me, overall. Especially when you had a good amount of it on this show already. Three Lyger bombs is a bit too much. Spinning powerbomb. I would have liked it more if it wasn't past 11 PM and I had to get to work at 6 AM in the morning.

Kris Hybrid, Dash Phoenix, and Trik Davis were all backstage visiting.

I don't think the crowd was popping at the idea of Scarlett on her hands and knees because she was scrubbing Colt's kitchen floor.

BTW, draw had to be over 200. Good night on that front.

Show was absolutely awesome EXCEPT for the Cannon / Jacobs promo. I was ok with it, but there were kids around that didn't need to hear it. I totally understand the f-bomb and others flying around, and I'm fine with that, but I thought this went over the line. My kids love the AAW and want to come back to see and meet some great wrestling talent. I'm not asking for a WWE PG-rated show, but that segment was not needed.

Knight and Krotch have both formally held belts for this company. Why were they on the pre show?

No. One does not have to be highly educated to get what Colt was getting at, crowd reaction or not. They knew what he was suggesting.



Yeah, maybe. I think about this too much.

But if Colt gets Scarlett for a week, she becomes his slave, has to do what he wants. Just because she has to do it, doesn't mean she wants to, despite her attire that makes her look like a streetwalker.

Take Elizabeth Smart. When she was taken against her will, she had to do some "dirty, dirty things" as well. Doesn't mean she wanted to do it, she was just trying to survive.

So the jump isn't as far fetched as you would think. Especially since Colt wasn't in the building and AAW had the tape in hand and knew what he would say before it went on the screen.

Obviously, nobody in AAW condones sexual assault, but that jump is not too far, as least to somebody like me who would probably would get a more sympathetic reaction from the female feminist friends of Todd Gerth, for instance.



Maybe I will. Or maybe I won't.

EDIT: I forgot to mention Saraya was ripping signs. On her way out after the match, she saw a guy holding a sign near the entryway that said "I'm Sorry." She punched the sign. Psycho.
