Here are the results from last Friday night in Plainfield, IN
courtesy of John Haky from prowrestlingindiana.com...here are the
results.
In the opening contest, Eddie Kingston defeated Hillbilly Jed.
Kingston controlled much of the match, and anytime Jed would try to
mount some offense, Kingston would pull something out of his bag of
dirty tricks. Late in the match, Jed caught a charging Kingston
with a boot to the face and followed it up with a swanton bomb. Jed
went for a twisting splash from the second turnbuckle, but Kingston
moved, and Kingston was able to capitalize with a series of mafia
kicks and a short arm lariat to pick up the pinfall victory.
Chandler McClure defeated The Indiana Kidd with a stunner variation
that saw Kidd belly-to-belly with is legs wrapped around McClure as
McClure dropped down.
Arik Cannon defeated B.J. Whitmer in a close, hard-hitting match.
The matched started with a series of comedy spots involving Cannon,
Whitmer, and referee Bryce Remsburg before Whitmer took control. In
the end, Whitmer perched Cannon on the top and executed a
superplex. However, Cannon was able to hook Whitmer's legs with his
own and got his shoulder off the mat to score the pin and the
victory.
In a fast paced encounter, Matt Sydal retained the NWA Midwest X-
Division Championship over Billy Roc. After trading some holds, Roc
caught Sydal on the top rope with a drop kick, crotching Sydal on
the top rope and sending him to the floor. After trading chops on
the floor, Sydal was able to connect with a running shinning wizard
on Roc in the corner and followed it up with a second rope leg
drop. Sydal then tried to finish Roc with a series of submission
holds, trying to ground Roc by focusing on Roc's legs. Roc tried to
battle back, floating over into a DDT, but only scoring a 2 count.
Sydal started showing frustration in trying to put Roc away after
only getting a 2 count following a pump-handle in a Michinoku
driver. Roc would rally the crowd behind him and hit Sydal with a
flying elbow, and Roc went to top rope for his patented frog
splash. However, Sydal got his knees up and rolled into a cover,
but only got another 2 count. Sydal finally scored the pinfall with
a standing shooting-star press.
Delirious, in his usual fashion, defeated C.J. Otis. Delirious went
for his trademark top rope splash, but Otis caught him and turned it
into a sit down powerbomb. Otis looked to put Delirious away with a
second turnbuckle piledriver, but Delirious floated over into a
sunset flip, only getting a two count. Otis would hit Delirious
with a spear and went for the burning hammer, but Delirious again
floated over for another two count. Otis looked to hit another
spear on Delirious in the corner, but Delirious avoided it and
rolled over Otis to finally get the three count.
Prior to intermission, Ian announced that IWA Mid-South would return
to Plainfield on Friday, February 17th for Hardcore Hell and Back.
At this show, tickets for the 2006 King of the Death Matches,
scheduled for June 2nd and 3rd in Plainfield, would go on sale.
Back from intermission, Darin Corbin took on the man from Stone
Mountain, GA … Nate "The Snake" Roberts (Spyder Nate Webb doing his
best Jake Roberts impression, complete with sack over his
shoulder). With Corbin leery of the ominous sack in the corner,
Nate had control of the match early until Corbin forgot about the
sack and took control. Nate would attempt the DDT, but Corbin got
the referee distracted and hit a low blow on Nate. Corbin then went
for the Rude awakening, but Nate reversed it into a clothesline and
then hit the DDT to pick up the win. After the match, Nate went to
dump the contents of the sack on Corbin, but Corbin scrambled away,
falling over a chair on his way out of the gym.
The Iron Saints (Vito & Sal Thomaselli) retained their IWA Tag Team
Championship by defeating The Soul Shooters (Apollo Star & Drew
Johnson). The Soul Shooters isolated Sal early in the match, and
while Vito gave the Saints a momentary advantage, the Soul Shooters
continued to work on Sal. The Saints would take over control when
Sal hit a Death Valley driver shoulder breaker on Star. The Saints
continued to work over Star, but a hot tag to Johnson gave the South
Shooters the momentum, and a diving head butt by Vito saved the
titles when Johnson appeared to have Sal pinned. However, a super
kick by Sal into a German suplex by Vito sent Johnson to the
outside. This left Star in prime position for Vito to hit a
spinbuster, followed by a swanton bomb by Sal using Vito for
leverage, allowing the Saints to score the pin and retain their
titles.
Up next was the tag team scramble match for the NWA Midwest Tag Team
Championship. The rules of this match were that two teams started
and after five minutes, another team would enter. Then, every three
minutes, another team would enter, and if at any point one member of
a team lost a fall, that team would be eliminated.
The first two teams in the match were the NWA Midwest Tag Team
Champions The Black & The Brave (Tyler Black & Marek Brave) and
Irish Airborne (Crazy J & Lotus). Black and Brave sent both Crazy J
and Lotus to the floor, but failed to capitalize when Brave missed
an Asai moonsault and Black missed a twisting dive to the floor.
This allowed Irish Airborne to take the advantage, concentrating on
the weakened knee of Brave.
The team of Chris Hero & Claudio Castagnoli entered the match and
sent Brave, Crazy J, and Black to the floor. With Lotus down on the
mat, Hero would monkey flip Castagnoli, sending him flying onto
Lotus, allowing Castagnoli to pin Lotus and eliminate Irish Airborne.
As Hero and Castagnoli turned their attention to Black and Brave,
the Tough Crazy Bastards (The Necro Butcher & "Mr. Insanity" Toby
Klein) entered the match. Hero and Castagnoli wanted no part of
Necro and Klein and the cleared the ring in a hurry. Klein started
brawling on the outside with Hero while Necro slammed Black with a
chair on the outside. With Brave still hobbled on the outside,
Klein turned his attention to the Black in the ring as Necro went
looking for Hero and Castagnoli, who had hidden themselves behind
the curtain. When Castagnoli revealed himself, Necro was there to
meet him with a trash can.
The team of Brain Damage & Deranged entered the match and
immediately went after Necro and Klein looking to avenge their loss
to the Bastards last month. As Necro and Brain Damage battled in
the ring and Klein and Deranged brawled on the floor, Black, Brave,
Hero, and Castagnoli kept their distance, catching a breather on the
outside. Anticipating that the action may spill towards them, Black
and Brave each grabbed a steel chair, but they were jumped from
behind by Hero and Castagnoli. Using the bleachers, Hero and
Castagnoli continued to work over Brave's injured leg, and also
decided to go to work on Black's leg.
21 & Irresponsible (Brandon Thomaselli & Josh Abercrombie) entered
the match, and were immediately approached by Hero and Castagnoli to
form an alliance, which Thomaselli and Abercrombie accepted despite
the objections of their corner man, Eddie Kingston. Meanwhile,
Necro and Deranged were having a stiffing duel in the ring, which
Necro won with a big right cross. The action between Necro, Klein,
Brain Damage, and Deranged spilled back to the outside, where Necro
and Klein came across the beaten Black and Brave. Necro gave Brave
some free shots before showing Brave how it's really done, while
Klein stuffed Black into a trash can. Meanwhile, Hero and
Castagnoli tried to form another alliance with Brain Damage and
Deranged, but they would have none of that and stared going to work
on Hero and Castagnoli.
Necro and Black found their back to the ring, and Thomaselli and
Abercrombie were ushered back to the ring as well. Hero jumped
Necro from behind, sending him into Brain Damage and Deranged on the
ring apron, and they suplexed Necro to the floor, taking him out of
the equation. As Hero and Castagnoli continued to avoid the action,
Thomaselli and Abercrombie continued the assault on the weakened
Black and Brave on the outside. In the ring, Klein hit a plancha on
Brain Damage and Derange on the outside. Klein would then reverse a
pump-handle attempt by Deranged into a Death Valley driver onto a
chair and score the pin, eliminating Brain Damage and Deranged.
Taking advantage of situation, Hero attacked Klein and got the pin
with a back slide and his feet on the ropes, eliminating the Tough
Crazy Bastards.
Thomaselli and Abercrombie shoved Brave into the ring, essentially
making the match a 4-on-2 with Black and Brave at the disadvantage.
The four heels isolated Brave from his partner and continued to
assault his wounded leg. Out of nowhere, Brave was able to pull
Abercrombie into an inside cradle and scored the pinfall,
eliminating 21 & Irresponsible.
Hero then hit the ring and tried to pick up where Abercrombie had
failed. Brave tried the inside cradle again as Black chased off 21
& Irresponsible with a chair, but Brave could get a two count. Hero
and Castagnoli would again try to isolate Brave, but a sudden spear
allowed Brave to make the hot tag to Black, who cleaned house,
including a rolling stunner on Castagnoli. Hero and Castagnoli
would hit the monkey flip splash, this time on Brave, but Brave
kicked out just short of three. In the end, Castagnoli would
accidently hit Hero when Brave moved out of the way, and as Black
dragged Hero to the outside, Brave hit a back ensiguri on Castagnoli
and get the pin to retain the tag team titles. This was a hot match
with a lot of great action, easily the match of the night.
The first of the double main event was the highly anticipated Barbed
Wire Board, Razor Blade Board Death Match between Brandon Prophet
and Corporal Robinson. Prophet was able to get some open shots in
to Robinson's head, but Robinson then returned the shots in kind.
Prophet was the first to taste the barbed wire when Robinson rubbed
Prophet's head in the wire, and followed that up with a steel chair
to Prophet's head. This time it was Prophet who would return the
favor by suplexing Robinson through a set of chairs that Robinson
had set up on the outside.
Back in the ring, Prophet suplexed Robinson onto the barbed wire and
then rubbed Robinson's head in the wire. Prophet then tried to rub
Robinson's head on the razor blades, but Robinson was able to keep
his head free of the blades. After Robinson gave Prophet a northern
lights suplex onto the barbed wire, Prophet would give Robinson a
spinbuster onto the razor blades. Prophet came very close to
feeling the razor blades himself after a super kick by Robinson sent
Prophet dangerously close to the blades.
The match spilled to the outside and after taking down Prophet,
Robinson bridged the razor blade board across four chairs on the
floor. As Robinson went to retrieve Prophet, Prophet battled back
and looked to put Robinson away as he climbed to the top rope.
However, Robinson caught Prophet and sent Prophet sailing from the
top rope through the razor blade board on the floor. Finally,
Robinson locked a choke on the floor and forced Prophet to tap out.
Prophet received a standing ovation for his efforts during the match.
The second main event was the steel cage match between Jimmy Jacobs
and Bull Pain. Bull was accompanied by Jim Fannin, who said that if
he got his hands on Jacobs, he would throw Jacobs around like a rag
doll. As would be expected, Jacobs was hesitant to enter the cage,
and as Jacobs stared at Bull through the cage door, Fannin locked
Jacobs in a full nelson. This allowed Bull to come out and pound on
Jacobs. Both Fannin and Bull brutalized Jacobs on the floor, using
the metal bat wrapped in barbed wire on Jacobs' head, back, stomach,
and groin. After Fannin fulfilled his promise by throwing Jacobs
across a row of chairs, Bull wrapped a steel chair around Jacobs'
ankle and stomped the chair.
Eventually, Jacobs was thrown into the cage and the bell rang to
officially start the match. Jacobs kicked the door into Bull to try
and keep him out of the ring, but it was all in vain. After hitting
a contra code on Bull, Jacobs tried to leave the ring, but Fannin
and the barbed wire metal bat kept Jacobs in the ring. Jacobs then
tried to beat down Bull with a chair, using it to choke Bull, and
then raked Bull's head across the cage. After Bull asked Jacobs if
that was he had, Jacobs hit a low blow and tried a hurricanrana, but
Bull caught Jacobs and drove Jacobs into the cage three times before
power bombing him. At this point, Fannin threw the bat in the ring
and locked the cage door. Bull again used the bat to hit Jacobs in
the back and groin and then dropped a leg across Jacobs' throat with
the bat across Jacobs' throat.
After a sickening chair shot to Jacobs' head, Bull went for a pin,
but to everyone's surprise, Jacobs broke up the pin by reaching the
ropes. Bull the hit Jacobs with a side piledriver on a steel chair,
but Jacobs again reached the ropes. As Fannin and Bull told referee
Remsburg to forget that he saw the foot on the ropes, Bull went for
another pin, but Jacobs again put his foot on the ropes. Since
Remsburg insisted on enforcing the rules instead of ignoring Jacobs'
foot on the ropes, Bull nailed Remsburg with the barbed wire bat.
Meanwhile, Jacobs found his way to the other side of the ring and
was able to climb up and out of the cage, thus winning the match,
before Bull realized what had happened. With Jacobs on the floor,
Fannin went after Jacobs with a chair, but Jacobs caught Fannin with
a low blow and escaped. Still angry at Remsburg, Bull wrapped a
chair around Remsburg's ankle and hit the chair with the bat, as he
screamed in pain.
