Platinum Championship Wrestling--November 30, 2014--Porterdale, GA

Match 1: Phil White vs. Azrael vs. Supernatural.
Winner: Supernatural

Phil White's gimmick was amusing. I couldn't tell exactly if he was a white supremacist in a black man's body, or if he was referring to the white people in the audience as colored, and attempting to put them in all back into slavery.  Either way it got a lot of heat. Supernatural won the match with a double stomp to Phil White, and Azrael made a nice show of sportsmanship towards Supernatural by raising his hand after the match. It was an awesome high energy opener.

Announcer Chuck Porterfield came to the ring saying that he'd often used the ring as a platform to share his political and social views with PCW fans, but he's changed course. "Fans don't come to sporting events to have opinions and views pushed on them. They want to see the best wrestling." He then described the main event tag team match between Big F'n Deal and The Washington Bullets. "It won't be opinion. It will be be in your face ass kicking between the two greatest teams in professional wrestling."

Match 2: Lyric vs. Warhorse Pi
Winner: Lyric

They attempted to introduce Warhorse Pi as "Warhorse 3.1425" or as all the digits of Pi, but as Pi is infinite that would have taken way too long.  The warhorse did a nice fakeout on the handshake to Lyric, instead choosing to kick her in the face.  Lyric did a sunset flip for a two count.  Then she did a crucifix for a two count, and got repeated near falls.  The warhorse suplexed Lyric, but he missed the follow up splash. Lyric won the match with a tiger feint kick. It was a decent debut for Lyric overall, and I'm curious to see more from this girl in the future.

The "Priority Male" Quasi Mandisco came out to tout Brian Kane's match against Bobby Moore and Shane Marx on December 6th. "I know you love me whether you want to admit it or not" he taunted the audience. "Next week The Priority Male and The Upgrade will be successful" A fan on the front row held up signs that said things like "Quasi's awesome" and then he'd rip them up to taunt Quasi. He and Quasi exchanged words and finally Quasi said "Justin, you want your 15 seconds of fame, but it ain't even worth it."

Match 3: Velvet Jones vs. President Marko
Winner: President Marko

These two wrestlers were evenly matched, and it resulted in a contest that showcased both their technical abilities. Velvet threw Marko into the barricade. Throughout the match, Jones showed a ruthlessness he'd never before exhibited.  Jones kept working Marko's leg after it appeared he'd tweaked it.  Velvet got Marko into an indian deathlock, but Marko got to the rope.  Velvet powerslammed Marko for a two count.  At the end it looked like Velvet had Marko pinned,
but Marko got his shoulder up and he pinned Velvet.  They embraced after. Velvet raised Marko's hand and then attacked him. He continued attacking Marko, hitting Marko's knee with a trash can. He wrapped him in the American flag in a way that resembled a military burial.  Overall it was a good match though Velvet's attack at the end seemed a little obvious to me.

Quasi Mandisco left the arena through the crowd. He was escorted by security, and he put on a pair of brass knuckles to show he meant business.The crowd yelled at him as he ventured out, and it drew good heat.

Match 4: Nina Monet vs. Miss Rachel
Winner: Nina Monet

These two fought hard, and Rachel had the match won. Nina tapped, but Lyric came out and  distracted the referee so Rachel didn't get her win. Rachel and Nina fought on the apron, and Nina got a two count.  Rachel was put to sleep by Nina Monet's wicked submission. It seems the rivalry between Nina and Rachel is just beginning, and with Lyric in the mix it's going to heat up.


The Main Event: Big F'n Deal (Geter and Brian Blaze) vs. The Washington Bullets (Jon and Trey Williams)

This match was a 2 out of 3 falls match to definitively decide once and for all who deserved the crown of best PCW tag team.  The match began with a handshake and a group hug, but it quickly turned into a four man brawl.  The Bullets came out strong at the start with a tandem dive.  Geter got the first fall of the match for Big F'n Deal.  Trey Williams countered Geter's size with his patented speed. Geter caught Jon Williams as he tried to dive and used him as a battering ram against Trey.  Geter got a 2 count.  Geter manhandled Trey Williams who was isolated for a long time. Brian Blaze tagged in and continued the assault against Trey.  Trey fought desperately to make the tag, and he showed great fighting spirit as he tried to withstand Geter and Blaze.

Jon Williams finally got in.  He did a slingshot, but Geter broke up the pin.  Jon hit Geter with an enzigiri.  The Bullets won the second fall because Geter attacked the referee and got disqualified.  Geter kicked out of a marion barry.  The bullets were sharp on their kicks, and they hit Blaze with a tandem kick that resulted in a two count.  Geter powerbombs Jon, then he hit Trey with a splash.  Trey won the match for the Bullets by rolling up Blaze into an inside cradle.  Geter lost his mind after they lost and it was an all out brawl. Wrestlers were thrown everywhere. In an attempt to subdue Geter, one of the bullets threw him into the wall right next to me, and there is now a hole in the wall of the arena from the impact. The night ended in carnage.

PCW will be back in Porterdale on December 6th.

Platinum Championship Wrestling 11/15/14--Porterdale, GA

To start the show,  Marko asked the audience to join him in the Pledge of Allegiance. The "French Sensation", Romeo, promptly interrupted him, calling Americans obese.  USA chants erupted, and Romeo continued saying he was going to make Marko his own personal American lackey. A fight erupted between Marko and Romeo, and it continued as they went back upstairs.

Quasi Mandisco said "You're welcome" as he entered. " I know you're all saying thank you because I've graced you with my presence. I'm everything this crowd isn't, a real man. Nothing will keep me from putting my hands on Shane Marx or slapping the trollop out of Rachel. You need more of me in your lives, so I get a warm up match."

Match 1: Quasi Mandisco vs. Warhorse 11-11-11 (The Revolutionary Warhorse)
Winner: Warhorse 11-11-11

Quasi pushed the Warhorse down, stomped him, then choked him with the rope.  Quasi argued with the referee while Brian Kane beat up the Warhorse.  Quasi choked the Warhorse in the corner, and then he danced and strutted, taunting the Warhorse.  Quasi punched the Warhorse in the face, and he went down like a tree. Quasi then picked up the warhorse for a slam, but afterwards Quasi acted like his hand was hurt. Brian Kane hit the warhorse with a moonsault, causing the Warhorse to win because Quasi was disqualified.

Devlin Valek told Johnny Danger that he felt like he was always cleaning up his messes. "Every time it's time to step up, you're injured. I'm putting you on notice. I'm tired of doing your dirty work." Velvet Jones addressed Valek. "You know this is a business where all we do is hurt each other. Before you were wrestlers, you were brothers. The people of Porterdale don't like your attitude towards your brother, and I'm going to make you bleed inside this ring to show you that blood is thicker than water."

Match 2: Devlin Valek vs. Velvet Jones
Winner: Devlin Valek

The action spilled outside of the ring quickly after a giant clothesline from Jones.  It was an explosive match, and I enjoyed the aggression in Valek's offense.  Valek grabbed a foreign object from his pocket, and his brother, Johnny Danger pleaded with him not to use it. The referee was arguing with Danger telling him to stay back, and Valek hit Jones with the foreign object. Valek picked up the win. The match told an excellent story, and I'm looking forward to the future fallout between Danger and Valek.

Match 3: Nina Monet vs. Warhorse 3
Winner: Nina Monet
The match ended quickly when Monet used a submission that resembled a scorpion crosslock, and Warhorse 3 tapped out.  I long to see Monet's skills used against a strong female competitor on a regular basis.

Match 4: The French Sensation Romeo vs. President Marko
Winner: President Marko

Romeo kicked Marko in the midsection, and went for the cover early, but he only managed a two count.  Romeo punched Marko in the head, clotheslined him, and attempted a pin.  Romeo tried to choke Marko against the ropes, then jumped on his neck out of the ring.  Romeo put Marko into a headlock, then hit him with back elbow, and he managed a two count.  He landed shoulderbutts to Marko's midsection, and he landed two European uppercuts, but still only managed a two count.  Romeo dominated the first half of the match, but Marko came back strong.  Marko pushed Romeo into the corner, and they engaged in a back and forth flurry.  Marko took flight, and landed a leg drop for a 2 count. Marko caught Romeo when he tried to fly, and slammed him into the corner. He went up top and hit Romeo in the center of the ring to win the match.

Match 5: "Go Time" Eric Jones vs. Brian Blaze
Winner: Brian Blaze

Jones wasted no time. He superkicked Blaze in the face to open the match.  Blaze left the ring to recollect his energy. Jones hit him with an elbow and Blaze answered with shots to Jones's midsection.  Jones hit Blaze with an elbow then went up top. Blaze left the ring to avoid Jones, but Jones hit him with a gorgeous dive outside the ring.  Blaze attacked Jones and got a two count after an elbow. Jones chopped Blaze in the chest. Jones attempted to pin Blaze, and then they exchanged blows. Blaze won the match with "The Burn."

Blaze took the mic. "I let a lot of people down at Sacred Ground. I want my match. I want the Bullets. I want my partner Geter." The main event for PCW's November 29th show will be the real Tag Team Season final match from Sacred Ground. It will be Big F'n Deal vs. The Washington Bullets.

Main Event: "Hit for Hire" Bobby Moore and "The Upgrade" Brian Kane vs. "The Revelation" Shane Marx and Miss Rachel
Winners: "Hit for Hire" Bobby Moore and "The Upgrade" Brian Kane


Quasi spoke. "These people need to realize they're in the presence of greatness. We had to make a change because I want to give you the best I can. Because I hurt my hand, I found a more than suitable replacement, "Hit for Hire" Bobby Moore."

Moore and Marx started the match. Marx tried to break Moore's arm and Moore reversed into an armbar of his own.  Moore tried to corner Marx. Moore shoved Marx, and Marx pushed him down. Moore tagged in Kane.

Marx tagged Rachel, and they double teamed Kane.  Rachel tried to make Kane submit. Kane tagged in Moore.

Moore threw Rachel into the corner, and luckily she was close enough to tag in Marx.  Marx dropkicked Moore in the mouth.  Kane broke up the pin attempt.  Marx kicked Moore. Moore punched Marx. Marx tagged in Rachel.

Rachel attempted a sunset flip on Moore, but she couldn't manage to fell him.  She then wrapped him in a submission, wrapping her whole body around him until she could tag in Marx. Moore taunted Rachel by slapping Marx. He hit Marx with back elbows in the corner, then attempted a pin.  Moore kicked Marx repeatedly, then punched him in the face. Marx came to his feet, and Moore punched him again. Marx answered Moore's blows. Marx hit him with a double knee facebreaker. Kane argued with the referee while Nina Monet hit Rachel knocking her off the ring apron.

Moore tagged in Kane. Marx hit him with with some crazy clotheslines, then scoop slammed him. Moore broke up the pin attempt. Kane held Marx for Moore, but Marx evaded, and Moore ended up kicking Kane. Marx hit a spinebuster, but only managed a two count. Marx went for a spear and missed. Kane kicked Moore, laid him on top of Marx, and pinned both Marx and Moore for the win.

Stephen Platinum entered the ring and took the mic. He announced that November 29th's main event will be the Washington Bullets vs. The Big F'n Deal, and he announced that both Brian Kane and Bobby Moore are number one contenders, so on December 6th both of them will meet Shane Marx in a three way dance for the PCW title. The first wrestler to get a pinfall or submission will be the champion.

Platinum Championship Wrestling returns to Porterdale, GA on November 29th, 2014.

Platinum Championship Wrestling--July 19, 2014

75 fans came to the Main Event in Porterdale, GA to see the aftermath of July 4th's Revolutionary Wargames. The crowd was hot, new feuds began, and old feuds grew deeper.  Kudos to Referee Dustin Robinson for going the distance and officiating every single match on the show.  

Match 1: "The Undead Luchador", Supernatural vs. "The One Man Militia" Jason Collins. 

Winner: "The Undead Luchador", Supernatural by submission.

Collins made a good showing in his debut match at PCW.  He heeled it up with the audience, and he sold Supernatural's attacks well throughout the match. Supernatural knocked him out of the ring, and it looked like he planned to dive on him. Instead he climbed on his back and rode him around the ring like a horse, charming the audience.  Collins held Supernatural up for about thirty seconds before suplexing him, and he got a two count.  Supernatural answered with forearms, then put Collins into a guillotine.  Collins fought out, and pinned Supernatural for a two count.  Supernatural landed a double stomp to the back of Collins' head, and he got a two count.  They exchanged blows.  Supernatural kicked Collins, and he got a two count. Supernatural missed a splash from the top rope, and Collins took advantage with a suplex and a pin attempt. Supernatural kicked out.  Collins set up for a superplex, but Supernatural knocked him down.  Supernatural then hit him with a frog splash that afforded him a two count.  Supernatural locked in the guillotine and Collins tapped.  The opener really pumped up the crowd, and it set the tone for the rest of the show.  

"The Voice of Reason" Chuck Porterfield announced that PCW is adding an additional show to their schedule on August 23, and it will feature ROH and TNA star Davey Richards who will take on the man who is PCW champion at the time of his appearance.  

Match 2: "The Young Gun" Adrian Armour vs. "Mr. Inspirational" Morgan Davis, III, vs. "Go Time" Eric Jones. 

Winner: "The Young Gun" Adrian Armour by pinfall. 

Adrian Armour left the ring immediately to let the other two participants fight it out.  They followed him and the action spilled into the front row . Armour and Jones entered the ring on the eight count, and Davis remained outside.  Armour delivered a nice spinning slam to Jones and followed that with a knee.  Davis broke up the pin. Davis delivered a crossbody for a two count.  Davis dropkicked Armour, but Jones interrupted the count. Davis slapped Jones angrily, and Armour took advantage picking up the pin. Davis gave a big "Up Yours" to Jones and the audience showing more personality than he'd ever shown before. 

"Marvelous" Marko Polo wore a dress shirt and slacks. He greeted the audience like he was running for office, shaking hands and kissing babies.  He announced he was running for president, and he gave a speech full of references to the Constitution and the Declaration of Independence replacing the United States with Porterdale, GA.  He promised to uphold truth, justice and the Porterdale way, and he mimicked Kennedy's famous words when he said "Ask not what Porterdale can do for me, but what I can do for Porterdale". He called Porterdale the land of the people and asked for our votes so he could be the first ever president of wrestling. It will be interesting to see how Marko's move from international male model to man of the people will go over in PCW in the long term, however, it won the hearts of the crowd this weekend. 

Match 3: "Hit for Hire" Bobby Moore vs. The Jagged Edge

Winner: The match was declared a double countout. 

Both wrestlers fought with intensity. Moore tried to run into Jagged with elbows, but it looked like he was running into a brick wall.  Jagged landed three knees into Moore's shoulder while he was down.  Jagged followed with a belly to belly suplex, but only got a two count.  The action spilled to the outside where Moore slammed Jagged's arm into the barricade then hit him.  Back inside, Jagged hit Moore with a giant clothesline.  Jagged followed with a neckbreaker.  The match was intense, and it held so much heat that the ring couldn't contain it.  Moore and Jagged fought outside the ring, and the match ended with a double countout.  After the bell rang, they continued assaulting each other.  The locker room came out to break it up. Half the bench on the other side of the arena from where I sat was cleared to make way for their fight. Jagged speared Moore once they reentered the ring, and the fight raged on. Jagged told Moore he'd started a war that he couldn't finish. "If you want to go to war, I'll take you to war," Jagged declared. This match was a beautiful start to what will be an amazing feud to watch.  

Johnny Danger addressed the audience. "Let's get one thing out of the way. I'm not here to make excuses. Quasi, for one night you were better than me. I let you all down, my family, myself, and Stephen Platinum.  I went home and watched the video.  I wasn't trying to win a match. I was trying to end a man's life.  That's not who I am."  He explained how he was unpopular in school, how he was rejected by girls, and how he'd always channeled his darker impulses to fight the monsters.  He emphasized that he who fights monsters needs to make sure he doesn't become one, and that he was ashamed when one of his young fans told him how cool it was that he'd hit Quasi Mandisco between the legs with a golf club during their street fight.  He praised the fans of Porterdale for finding something to love about Johnny Danger at a time three years prior when he didn't love himself. He declared "Johnny Danger will never lift his hands in anger again.  I'm stepping away from wrestling until I get control of this." Danger seamlessly transitioned into a commentary role, joining Chuck Porterfield on the mic.  

Quasi Mandisco told Johnny Danger, "I told you I'd kill your spirit, and in doing so I killed the spirit of PCW. Mandisco was on fire. He told a lady that she'd better keep her kid away from him or he'd break his back.  

Match 4: Deandre Jackson vs. Devlin Valek. 

Winner: Devlin Valek by disqualification

Valek came out with fury and energy.  The action spilled out of the ring, and Jackson drove Valek into the ring post.  The audience screamed in anger as Mandisco choked Valek with his scarf while Jackson distracted the referee.  Valek was so angry that he tried to go after Mandisco and Jackson pulled him back into the ring.  Valek wrapped Jackson into the ropes, and the referee admonished Valek.  Mandisco freed Jackson from the ropes, then he blatantly hit Valek causing a disqualification.  He tried to goad Johnny Danger into fighting on his brother's behalf, but Danger and the audience chanted "Let us see" and the mysterious cloaked figure came out to save Valek.  Two members of MAIM will face Valek and the mysterious figure at PCW's next show on August 2nd.  

Match 5: The Contras vs. Geter

Winner: Geter by pinfall

The Contras made their return to PCW declaring "When the muscles go up, the mouths go shut." Geter made quick work of them, and stood on his prey in triumph as he pinned him.  The referee jumped out of the ring to avoid Geter as the announcers declared "There's not a wholesome bone in that man's body." Geter said he planned to win the 2014 Tag Team Season, and in the absence of Brian Blaze he'd be the Big F'n Deal by himself.  The Contras declared that neither Geter nor PCW had seen the last of them.  

Main Event: "Do or Die" Chip Day vs. "The Revelation" Shane Marx. 

Jeff G. Bailey accompanied Day to the ring, and he jaw-jacked with two guys on the front row regarding the bandage he still wore upon his head from the War Games.  The match was a balls to the wall, take no prisoners match from start to finish. Marx did a standing hurricanrana to Day, then they fought on the apron. Day did an STO on the apron, and followed with Day of the Dead, but only got a two count.  Day chopped Marx in the corner, whipped him to another corner, then chopped him again.  Marx showed amazing athleticism as he avoided Day's offense by rolling.  Marx did a neckbreaker to Day for a two count.  Day tossed Marx out of the ring, then distracted the referee while Bailey kicked Marx in the gut repeatedly.  Day gained advantage but spent too long posing, so Marx fought back.  Day attempted to choke Marx on the ropes.  Marx landed knees to Day's chin.  Day delivered one of his crisp kicks.  Marx answered with a spinebuster.  Both men were down, and Marx came to his feet first elbowing Day, then following up with a superman punch and a crossbody for a two count. 

Marx delivered a beautiful fisherman suplex that also resulted in a two count.  Day kicked Marx in the gut, then followed with a crossbody. Marx rolled through and pinned Day with Natural Selection.  Marx was declared the winner, however, the referee didn't see Day's foot was clearly on the rope.  Bailey clamored for the referee to review footage on a video camera. The referee reviewed the footage and admitted that Day's foot was on the rope, so the match was restarted. Rachel pushed Jeff G. Bailey off the apron as he sought to interfere, and the referee turned to settle the dispute between those two. Day struck Marx with a low blow, and rolled him up in a cradle for the win.  The audience was mad as hell, and they blamed the referee for not keeping his eyes on the action in the ring.  Marx was helped from the ring by Rachel, Danger, and Marko.  

PCW will be back in Porterdale August 2nd. They will also have shows on August 16th and August 23rd.  

Southern Fried Championship Wrestling--July 12, 2014--Monroe, GA

220 fans packed into the Nowell Recreation Center. The fanbase for this promotion is loyal, and I decided to give it a second look after reading the talent pool had improved since my last visit. Two matches stood out as superior to the rest of the show, the opener featuring Fred Yehi and Kameron Kade, and the women's match featuring Pandora and Amber O'Neal.  The show ran very long, a little over three hours, and little felt like it flowed, and only a few moments wove together to create a long term story.

Match 1: Fred Yehi vs. Kameron Kade

Fred wore monkey pajama pants and took the microphone to make his ring announcement.  He fell down laughing during Cade's entrance because the ring announcer messed up the name of Cade's cruiserweight title.  Fred Yehi has the technical wrestling ability to make any opponent look good. He also maintained a good comedic heel presence.  Cade reversed Yehi's sunset flip attempt and pinned Yehi. Yehi was a sore loser, and he attacked Cade after the victory putting him in the Koji clutch.

Joseph Brock III, a nerdy businessman character, came to the ring.  He'd heard that Southern Fried Championship wrestling was the best wrestling in GA, and that they had the best fans anywhere.  He said that everything he'd heard was a lie, and got a lot of heat for that comment.  He said he'd brought a new talent to Southern Fried Championship wrestling and that talent would be revealed later in the show.

Match 2: Savage Shane vs. Josh Storm.

Shame spent a long time at the beginning out of the ring jawing with the audience.  The audience was fairly quiet during this match.  Josh won by avoiding Shane's offense and rolled him up.

Match 3: Roscoe Ray and Jamie Holmes vs. The New Generation

Roscoe Ray won the belts with Kody Jack, however Kody Jack was still injured, so Roscoe was left without a partner for the first part of the match against the The New Generation. Roscoe took a baby from the audience to use as his partner, and the audience laughed.  Jamie Holmes came out to be Roscoe's partner when it looked like The New Generation, and Holmes and Roscoe won the match. The match was boring and a lot of the in ring work was sloppy, but Roscoe's fans are firmly behind him enough not to care.

Roscoe was unhappy that Jamie Holmes helped him win because Holmes used to be affiliated with The Company. Holmes begged for forgiveness and they shook hands.

Match 4: Leatherface vs. Sinistar

Sinistar was billed from the farthest galaxy.  Leatherface won the match, and the audience loved him.

Match 5: Chris Nelms(w/Amber O Neal)  vs. Logan Creed

Amber O' Neal's experience showed as she distracted the referee allowing the heels to get their interference.  She interfered a few times herself.  The match was going ok when Joseph Brock III came out and his client, The Jagged Edge attacked Logan Creed. Jagged said "The big dog is back" and he continued to insult the crowd. Jagged's attack resulted in a disqualification win for Creed.  Creed vs. Jagged Edge was set for the August 30th Terry Lawler appreciation show.

Match 6: AJ Steel vs. Head of Security Andy Miller

The security guard actually had a match. I'm shaking my head a little at the idea of a non-wrestling non character being featured on a card, I can only assume that AJ Steel had given security guards trouble over the past few months leading up to this match.  Miller got in a little offense at the beginning of the match, but Steel quickly gained advantage.  Steel pulled Miller's shirt over his head and chopped him in the chest. Steel won with a spinning slam.

Josh Storm attacked AJ Steel with a flying clothesline, then did a hurricanrana. Steel caught him when he attempted a crossbody, but Pandora came to Josh's aid with a low blow to Steel.  She announced that the Dream Team has come to SFCW. Steel said if they were the dream team, he's both their worst nightmare. The crowd adores Pandora, and hopefully some of that will carry over to Storm.


Match 7: Monster Maul vs. Steve Lawler

The action spilled outside the ring quickly, and the crowd was clearly behind Lawler. Lawler won, and he unmasked Maul. Maul hid his face in shame.

Lawler said he was here for Murder One, and he threatened to beat his ass all over GA. He called him out and AJ Steel came in his place.  On fan appreciation night, three of the four original members of Bad Company will be at SFCW, and the match will be Bad Company vs. The Company. If The Company wins, they get The Bad Company name, but if they lose they can never use that music or the name The Company again, plus Chris Nelms will have to come out wearing a diaper.


Match 8: Amber O Neal vs. Pandora

This match was the match of the night. Amber left the ring after Pandora gained advantage at the beginning. Amber wrapped Pandora's legs around the ringpost in a variation of the figure four. Pandora attempted a sunset flip, but Amber reversed it. They reversed it back and forth several times, but neither managed the pin. Pandora won the match with a DDT pinning Amber.  Pandora was crowned SFCW's Queen of the Ring.

Match 9: Dark Mon vs. Twisted (Jerry Nelms)

The match was over in less than a minute when Chris Nelms hit Dark Mon with a chair resulting in a disqualification.  Chris Nelms and Jerry Nelms got in a fight, and Jerry Nelms is still champ. Jerry Nelms flipped off the top rope onto a chair onto Chris, and while I think the Twisted character is an interesting direction for Jerry Nelms, I really wanted to see the match with Dark Mon.  Dark Mon chokeslamming Chris Nelms almost made up for the fact that there wasn't much of a main event. Chris Nelms vs. Jerry Nelms was set for August 9th when SFCW returns to Monroe.

Full Impact Pro Ippv--July 11, 2014--Ybor City, Florida

Full Impact Pro offered a live stream of their July 11th show Declaration of Independence for $4.99, and it was well worth the price for the women's match and the triple threat match for the Heavyweight championship alone. Full Impact Pro is not a family friendly show like most of the shows I normally review, and I found the commentators attempts to be funny distracting from the action at times.  The quality of the wrestling and the emphasis on fast paced, spot heavy matches made it unique, and I will order it again in the future.

Match 1: Jesus De Leon vs. Bolt Brady

De Leon had an anime style gimmick, and Brady used a portion of TV's popular Brady Bunch theme as his entrance music.  This was a high energy match, and it was a good way to set the tone for the show. Both men wrestled with an acrobatic style, and several times the audience in the first couple ringside rows had to move to make room for the wrestling.   The match ended in a time limit draw with the crowd begging for five more minutes.

Match 2: The Trailer Park Nation vs. Rhett Gibbons
The Trailer Park Nation (Jack Jameson, Joey Mayberry, and Earl Cooter) declared their intention to take over Full Impact Pro, and they issued an open challenge.  It was answered by Rhett Gibbons, a big man who entered wearing a weird mask and a shirt that said "Freak" on it.  Though the match was a handicap match featuring all three men of Trailer Park Nation against Gibbons, Gibbons won the match by count out. The Trailer Park Nation was too cowardly to face him.  Cooter blamed his team for the loss.

Match 3: Maxwell Chicago vs. Jo Jo Bravo

Chicago was supposed to wrestle in a tag team match with his partner Moose against Josh Hess and a partner of his choosing.  Chicago wore a tuxedo, and entered to a lounge version of Nirvana's Smells Like Teen Spirit.  He stated that his partner couldn't make it, and that he'd accept any opponent.  Hess entered with his manager Mr. Saint Laurent, who apparently hates Hess though Hess worships him and would do anything for him.  Hess wore an arm sling, and stated that he'd found the greatest wrestler he could find, and that he'd promised him working this match would make him an official Floridian.

The resulting match was very comedic. The audience seemed to enjoy it, but I found it to be too goofy.  They tried to bite each other's hands, and Bravo oversold when Chicago punched him.  Chicago won with The Fourth Line. He said he'd like to challenge Chasyn Rance for the Florida Heritage championship sometime in the future.

Match 4: Lince Dorado vs. Chasyn Rance for the Florida Heritage Championship.

Lince Dorado, billed from Cat Mountain, wore a cat mask and came out to the Meow Mix theme. He rubbed up against the ring announcer like a cat as well.  I was ready to dismiss his gimmick until I saw him wrestle. He was acrobatic, showed athleticism, and he was a pleasure to watch. Rance cheated several times during the contest. The first time his manager, Mr. Saint Laurent slammed Dorado while the referee was distracted. The second time, a giant guy came out from the back and tried to lay waste to Dorado while the referee tended to Rance who was down.  Dorado showed great resilience throughout the match, but Rance played dirty and went for his mask. Dorado had to hide his face, and Rance was able to roll him up for the victory, retaining the Florida Heritage title.

Match 5: James Raideen vs. Jack Gallow

Raideen came to FIP to challenge everyone in the locker room. He established himself as a star in Japan, and beat Tanaka for an 01 Heavyweight Championship.  Raideen dominated the entire match with a big slam, a big elbow, and a big right hand that resulted in a two count. The two wrestlers exchanged chops, but Raideen won the match with a powerbomb. The 23 year old New Zealander is poised to be a big star with both his size and his ability.

Match 6: Aaron Epic, Davey Vega, and Jason Cade vs. The Submission Squad (Gary Jay, Pierre Abernathy, and Evan Gelistico)

The match was a good mix of comedy and serious tag team wrestling. At one point, all six men stood in a circle, and they punched each other around the circle one after another.   The Submission Squad worked really well together as a team, and they won the match when Jay did a doomsday flatliner to Vega.

Match 7: Johnny Vandal (w/Trina Michaels) vs. Blake Edward Belakus

Johnny Vandal dominated the first half of the match. He did a Japanese stranglehold, backstabber combination which resulted in a two count.  He followed with a leg drop which also resulted in a two count.  He argued with the referee.  Trina Michaels jumped up on the apron, causing a distraction. Vandal hit Belakus with a low blow, and he picked up the win.  After the match, he attacked Belakus with a chair.

Match 8: Shanna vs. Ivelisse for the Shine championship

The commentators claimed this was the first championship match of the night, but Rance and Dorado had previously fought for the Florida Heritage title.  Shanna tried to get the crowd to sing the Portugese national anthem, and she butchered it. She pitched a fit when Ivelisse interrupted her.  Shanna was aggressive before the bell even rang.  Shanna did a snap suplex and a bridge pin, but only got a two count.  Shanna attempted a dragon sleeper, but Ivelisse got out of it, and she followed with a snapmare.  Shanna kicked a soccer ball at Ivelisse. Ivelisse was hung up in the ropes, and Shanna kept using the ball against her.  The referee stopped her, and took the ball. Ivelisse kicked Shanna then followed with a DDT.  Shanna did a rolling elbow for a two count.  Shanna tried to get the soccer ball back, and Ivelisse accidentally kicked the referee while she tried to capitalize.  Shanna had the match won with the injection of perfection and it looked like we had a new champ, but the referees consulted and the match was restarted.  Ivelisse retained her title by pinning Shanna after flipping her over.  WWE and TNA both missed an opportunity not signing Ivelisse, and their loss is Shine's gain.

Match 9: Rich Swann vs. Roderick Strong vs. Trent Baretta for the World Heavyweight Championship.

Rich Swann danced to the 80's song All Night Long, and the audience sang along. The audience loved him. The announcers stated that Baretta's held the championship for 336 days as of this match.  The strategy was for Swann and Strong to keep Baretta out of the ring during the first half of the match, but that didn't last. Swann did a hurricanrana to Baretta, and he followed that by delivering one to Strong.  Swann missed a frog splash, and Baretta attempted a cover for a two count.  The match was fast paced with lots of pin attempts. Strong did a backbreaker that resulted in a two count. Swann and Strong exchanged blows. Strong did a gutbuster to Swann. All three men were down. Swann did a phoenix splash to Baretta, but Strong broke up the pin attempt. Strong then dumped Swann out of the ring.  Baretta retained the title by pinning Strong in a small package.  Strong went crazy on Baretta post-match, and Swann returned to the ring to beat up Strong.

Match 10: Dos Ben Dejos (Cruz and Rios) vs. Eddie Graves and Terry Stigma (w/Trina Michaels)

The match was an unsanctioned street fight, and it was brutal from the outset.  The action spilled out of the ring quickly, and it went all over the Orpheum.  Dos Ben Dejos do a lot of good tandem moves.  Cruz spit liquor in the face Stigma to stop him from using the barbed wire board.  Ben Dejos hit Stigma with the barbed wire board. Graves saved his partner from further assault, but it did little good. They quickly continued their attack.  Rios hit Stigma in the face repeatedly.  Graves followed up with a DDT and a chair shot.  Johnny Vandal came out to attack Dos Ben Dejos, but Blake Edward Belakus followed to thwart his attack. Cruz suplexed Stigma off a ladder then dropped the ladder on him. Rios held the ladder in place while Cruz flipped off the top turnbuckle onto Stigma and the ladder.  Graves was 3d'd into thumbtacks and he begged for mercy.  Graves broke a board over the head of Cruz, and got the pin.

This show was good adult fun, and I would order it again.  The language and the blood in the street fight made it unsuitable for children, but families were never the target audience.  It was a good entertainment value for the price, and it featured a variety of characters and wrestling styles.

Peachstate Wrestling Alliance--July 5, 2014--Carrollton,GA

235 packed into the VFW Fairgrounds in Carrollton, GA to watch Peachstate Wrestling Alliance. The show began with the return of fan favorite, "The Cowboy" Dusty McWilliams, who was absent from Peachstate for a year. The crowd  welcomed him back loudly, and there was a screaming contest among various sections of the audience over who would get to take home his bandanas. He informed the audience that he was medically cleared to wrestle again, and The Dragon interrupted him. The Dragon said he ought to "Save a cowboy and ride a dragon." and that Carrollton is his town. He challenged McWilliams to fight then and there, and McWilliams replied that cowboys don't back down from anything.

Dragon started out aggressively beating up McWilliams, and he got a chair. As he started to use the chair on McWilliams the referee grabbed it. McWilliams pinned Dragon by taking advantage of the confusion.  Dragon argued "Wait till the bell rings. The bell never rang, so you never beat me." McWilliams went to the back triumphantly.

Match 1: "Hit for Hire" Bobby Moore vs. Fred Yehi.

The crowd was clearly behind Yehi for this match. Moore began aggressively with chops to the chest. Yehi elbowed Moore in the corner, and came back with chops of his own.  Yehi suplexed Moore, but only managed to get a one count.  Yehi hit Moore with a clothesline. Yehi secured victory when Moore tapped to the Koji Clutch. Both Moore and Yehi are solid in-ring performers and the match was a pleasure to watch.

Match 2: NWA GA Heavyweight Champion Tyson Dean vs. Drew Adler

Dean didn't show as much personality during his entrance as I'd seen in previous shows at NWA Atlanta where he really heels it up with the crowd.  The crowd was clearly behind Adler in this contest.  At the five minute mark, Dean had drew in a submission, kneed him, then threw him down on his back while still holding the arm. Adler kicked out of the pin attempt.  Dean attempted to submit Adler again, but Adler got up. Adler elbowed Dean, then rolled him up. Dean got to the ropes and broke the pin attempt. Adler did a nice scoop slam, but Dean kicked out at two. Adler did a flip dive out of the ring onto Dean, then pulled Dean back in for a two count. Adler attempted unsuccessfully to submit Dean. Dean won the match by submitting Adler with a shoulder lock.

Shane Noles announced that the scheduled triple threat match between Ace Haven, Kevin Blue, and Jimmy Rave  for the Jr. Heavyweight championship wouldn't happen because Kevin Blue suffered an injured elbow, and Rave wasn't present. Noles tried to present Haven with the title, but Haven said he wouldn't accept anything by forfeit or default.  He asked for a suitable opponent, and he was granted Fred Yehi, who worked his second match of the night. It's obvious Carrollton fans aren't fond of Haven, and this was illustrated by the funniest sign I've seen at a wrestling show in a long time. It said, "Ace and Amy, How many animals had to die for your wardrobe?" Considering the Havens are prone to appear in all over zebra print, I'd venture to say a fair amount.

Match 3: Ace Haven vs. Fred Yehi

Haven knocked Yehi out of the ring, and Yehi fell on the thin ropes they were using as a barricade. Haven dived onto Yehi. Haven also did a nice flying headscissors. Haven missed a kick in the corner. Yehi did a snapmare, then stomped Haven's ankle. Yehi then put Haven in a figure four. Yehi broke the submission himself by standing on Haven's still restrained legs and stomping on them.  Yehi dropkicked Haven in the ankle, then delivered a gorgeous suplex for a two count. Yehi put Haven in a bodyscissors, but Haven fought out.  Haven countered Yehi's assault, attempted a splash, missed, and ended up in the Koji Clutch. Haven got his foot on the rope. Both men made unsuccessful pin attempts. At the end it looked like Haven pinned Yehi's shoulders to the mat, and Haven's music played, however, the referee announced that Yehi was the actual winner and new Jr. Heavyweight champion.  Haven and Yehi shook hands and Haven held up Fred's hand as a sign of respect. This signaled the possibility of a face turn for the previously heel Haven.

Tommy Too Much came out to collect the $5,000 from Simon Sermon. He still complained that he's the one who made Simon Sermon, and that his voice is on the song.  Simon Sermon carried the envelope with the cash inside, and Too Much called GWH's Larry Goodman to the ring because he trusted him to help count the money. He said "If that's $5,000 I'll take everyone of you to Waffle House. Verify that money is real". They verified it was all there, and Sermon offered Too Much an extra hundred for the beating he was going to give him. Too Much left the ring quickly, and Sermon won by count out. It was a hollow victory leaving Sermon pissed beyond belief. "Tommy Tits, I knew you were a piece of trash Now we all know what you are. There's a battle royal next, and I'm going to get a chair and sit my fat ass in the chair until Tommy too much comes out and I can whip him." He asked for the security guy to hand him his belt.

Match 4: 10 man battle royal
It was interesting to note that in the battle royal only Dusty McWilliams got his entrance music played. Order of elimination was 1. Marvelous Michael Stevens 2. Simon Sermon (eliminated by Tommy Too Much who wasn't even involved in the match) 3. Ace Haven 4. Fred Yehi 5. Tyson Dean 6. Zac Edwards 7. Bobby Moore 8. Drew Adler. 9. The Dragon.  Dusty McWilliams won the match, and the audience went into a frenzy.  Dragon beat McWilliams upside the head with his trophy, then used it to choke him.  Officials had to carry McWilliams out of the ring in absence of a stretcher.

Match 5: "The French Sensation" Romeo vs. "The Original Chosen One" Rick Michaels.

This match was built solidly at the last show as the perfect patriotic spectacle for the July 4th weekend. The French flag and the American flag were placed on poles in opposite corners of the ring. If Romeo obtained his flag first, Michaels would be forced to sing the French national anthem. If Michaels obtained his flag first, Romeo would sing the U.S. anthem.  The match also featured 10 lucky fans outside the ring holding straps, which they were allowed to wield if either participant tried to escape the ring.

Prince Akbar came out to USA chants. He put down the arrogant Americans for daring to speak in his presence.  He introduced Romeo. Strap-wielding fans started swinging before he even entered the ring. Michaels came out to a passionate crowd who chanted USA and cheered him onto victory.  Romeo attacked Michaels from behind before the match really got going.  Rick countered and tossed Romeo out of the ring. The strap-wielding fans started their assault, and Romeo leaped back into the ring only to be tossed out the other side.  He got back into the ring to meet an assault from Michaels who removed his shirt. Romeo tossed Michaels out of the ring, but the crowd barely swatted at him, some even hugged him.  Michaels regained control of the match and attempted to go for his flag, but Romeo caught him.  Michaels powerbombed Romeo. Akbar interfered to stop Michaels from getting his flag until Romeo got back into the match.  Michaels was busted open, and Romeo angered the audience further by rubbing the blood on his chest and face like macabre war paint.  Michaels managed a backbreaker/neckbreaker combination, but Romeo stopped him from retrieving the flag.  Michaels finished with a knee to the chin and a superkick. He retrieved the United States flag, and he forced Romeo to sing. "If you don't sing Shane might strip you of the title. He might fire you. But if you don't sing, I'll whip your ass."  Romeo butchered the anthem as expected, but the audience went insane for Michaels' win.  It was a superb ending for a really good show.

Platinum Championship Wrestling--July 4, 2014--Porterdale, GA

Nearly 300 people crowded into downtown Porterdale to witness this outdoor show, and 63 of those took advantage of the premium ringside seating.  Revolutionary War Games, in its third year in Porterdale, GA, is now synonymous with July 4th to PCW fans and residents of the city.  It took a few matches for the crowd to warm up, but they were at a fever pitch by the main event. The highlights of the show were the Porterdale Street Fight that featured Quasi Mandisco and Johnny Danger and the War Games match itself.

The voice of reason, Chuck Porterfield introduced the show, and Quasi Mandisco quickly interrupted him. "What you didn't mention is the fact that I'll end Johnny Danger's career tonight. This doesn't involve any of you pieces of crap." Mandisco insulted the jeering audience. "You will see me standing over the carcass of Johnny Danger tonight."

Match 1: "Pump Yo Brakes" Steve Goins vs. "Marvelous" Marko Polo

One of Polo's signatures is that he dresses up for every major holiday. For War Games, he came dressed as Uncle Sam with a modern twist, and he ran in holding the U.S. flag above his shoulders triumphantly. Polo dived out of the ring onto Goins, and they both landed on the concrete. Goins remained outside arguing with the audience, and Polo silenced him with an elbow. Polo suplexed Goins for a two count. Goins thumbed Polo in the eye. Goins slammed Polo, then put his strap down to show he meant business. He went for a fist from the top, but missed. Goins attempted a superplex, but Polo knocked him down and won the match with a flying elbow.

Match 2: Savage Shane vs. "Go Time" Eric Jones

The audience was very quiet during this match. Jones attempted to do three German suplexes, but Shane countered. On his second attempt of the three Germans, he landed them. He followed with a splash from the top. Shane rolled away, and Jones only managed a two count. Jones won the match with a gutbuster. Savage Shane extended his hand after the match, and it was odd to see Jones and Shane actually shake hands with no issues. The audience expected Shane to try something since he's a member of heel faction, MAIM. Jones still sold the neck pain as he entered the building.

Match 3: Blake Broadway vs. ATL

Both competitors made their PCW debut in this contest. The match was dynamic and high energy, and the audience was really starting to get behind ATL when Geter attacked both men suddenly and without provocation.  Broadway ran away, and Geter continued attacking ATL. Geter took the microphone. "You people may think I suck, but I"m the biggest man moving in wrestling today. I came ready to fight, I came ready to whoop. Go back there and find me some competition."

Match 4: William Huckaby and Joe Black vs. Geter

Huckaby answered Geter's challenge. "There's one thing I hate more than driving here from North Carolina to Porterdale. The only thing worse than that is a Bully. You're under the impression that size equals power. Power equals power."

Black and Huckaby worked well together performing a dropkick/spinebuster combo. Black did a frog splash that resulted in a one count. Geter won the match by submitting Huckaby. Geter behaves like he is neither heel nor face, he is more of a force of nature.

Match 5: Deandre Jackson vs. ???

Jackson came out ready to insult the crowd. "We're in Porterdale. Nobody cares about ya'll. If you were a body part, you'd be the back of the knee. Quasi's gonna pimp slap that Johnny Danger all over Porterdale." His words didn't matter much to the crowd. A few who were in the know attempted a "Let us See" chant to summon Jackson's mysterious competitor. It was only the second appearance for the strange hooded man, so it may take a little while for crowds to warm up to this intriguing persona. ??? won the match with a DDT.

Match 6: Quasi Mandisco vs. Johnny Danger

Mandisco entered to a remix of Ric Flair's theme wearing a scarf more audacious than his entire scarf wardrobe combined. Danger dressed as Casey Jones from Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles wearing a mask and carrying a bag of golf clubs and a kendo stick. Danger began by beating Mandisco with the kendo stick. While Mandisco was down, Danger hit Mandisco in the balls with a golf club. Then he hit him with a cookie sheet and a styrofoam food container. Danger missed an elbow, then tweaked his knee. Mandisco took advantage and hit that knee repeatedly with the kendos stick. He then hit Danger in the mouth with the kendo stick. Danger got Mandisco with a DDT. Danger picked up a trash can, then set up a ladder. He put Mandisco in the trash can, then did an elbow drop off the ladder, but that only resulted in a two count. Danger set up four chairs into a square and attempted to superplex Mandisco into them, but Mandisco shoved Danger into them instead. Danger kicked out of Mandisco's pin attempt. The crowd broke out into a passionate "Let's go Johnny" chant. Mandisco kicked Danger repeatedly. Danger speared Mandisco. Danger wrapped a chain around his fist, and Mandisco put on a pair of brass knuckles. Both swung and missed. Danger did a suplex, but Mandisco managed to clock him with the brass knuckles in the midst of it, and Mandisco picked up the pin. Steve Platinum got in the ring to check on Danger. Mandisco staggered into the building still talking smack at the audience. Danger got to his feet, and the audience still chanted his name.

Match 7: Revolutionary Wargames featuring Team Bailey ("Hit for Hire" Bobby Moore, "The Young Gun" Adrian Armour, "The Hammer of the Gods" Sylar Cross, "Do or Die" Chip Day and Jeff G. Bailey) vs. Team Rachel ("The Demigod" Mason, Supernatural, "The Revelation" Shane Marx, "The Monster" Grotesque, and Miss Rachel)

One member of each team, in this case Mason and Moore, began the match. Randomly selected participants entered the ring in two minute intervals.  The match could end at any point, but only by submission.  Mason started out strong. He tried early to put Moore away with Occam's razor, but Moore broke it with an eyerake. Moore attempted to pin Mason and pitched a fit when he realized the match was submissions only. Adrian Armour entered the ring next. Armour and Moore beat up Mason until Sylar Cross entered next. Cross put Mason in a liontamer variation, but Cross released it. Rachel entered next, and Moore slapped her. Mason rescued Rachel. Rachel got away from Moore who pinned her in the corner. She kicked him, then chopped him.  Marx entered, and Moore pushed Rachel into Marx. Marx unloaded on Moore. Moore pulled Rachel into a splash and Marx collided with Rachel.

 Day entered next, and behind him came Jeff G. Bailey. Bailey locked the cage door upon entering so the last two members of Rachel's team would have trouble getting to their comrades.  He then made good on his promise to make Rachel bleed by sending her into the side of the cage. Supernatural entered next. He climbed the cage to get past the locked door. Sylar Cross and Adrian Armour tried to slap him off the cage walls, He kicked them down. They set up Chip Day to throw at him, but he double stomped Day and made it into the cage.  Grotesque broke the lock, so all members of both teams were in the cage.  Steve Platinum yelled to Rachel's team "Kill them, Kill them all."  Rachel and Bailey stared each other down. Bailey slapped her, and she slapped him back. He slapped her again. She delivered a low blow to him, then threw him into the side of the cage. Rachel made Bailey bleed. Rachel speared Bailey. Day kicked Rachel as she went for an indian deathlock to submit Bailey. Day locked Rachel into a submission, but Marx kicked him to break it. Day submitted to Marx's elevated chickenwing, and the story went full circle from last year's War Games. Day "gave up" last year, turning on PCW fans and joining Jeff G. Bailey and the remnants of the Empire.  The crowd went crazy when Day tapped to Marx, and it was a fitting end.

Steve Platinum took the microphone and he said "This is America. America is about three things on the 4th of July, celebration, it's about redemption (as he said this Grotesque unmasked to reveal his true identity, The Jagged Edge), and opportunity. Shane Marx will have the opportunity to face Chip Day for the PCW championship on July 19th because he got the win for his team". The winning team celebrated as the losers kicked the cage and insulted the audience upon their exit.

PCW returns to Porterdale July 19th, and Shane Marx will finally meet Chip Day for the title. Fans have been waiting for these two stars to collide.

Peachstate Wrestling Alliance--June 28, 2014--Carrollton, GA

225 rabid fans filled the VFW Fairgrounds building, and they were ready for a great time.  Peachstate Wrestling Alliance delivered, and it promises to deliver again on July 5th. The entire show was an absolute delight.  Every match told a story, and all those stories wove together to create a good build for the July 5th show.

At the beginning of the show, the PA system for the ring announcer's microphone was messed up, however, it was fixed by the beginning of the third match. For the remainder of the show the audio ran smoothly.

Match 1: Southern Cross (Casey Kincaid and Shane Marx) and The French Sensation, Romeo vs. The Young Lions (Lex Lee and Kevin Kaufman) and Rick Michaels.
Winners: Southern Cross and The French Sensation, Romeo

When Southern Cross entered, the entire crowd yelled "You got beat". Romeo, the arrogant Frenchman, entered waving his flag and insulting America to chants of "USA" that rang through the audience. The Young Lions, current tag champions, are a high energy team, and they are very popular with the crowd.  When one of the Young Lions was in peril during the match, a chant of "We want Rick" echoed through the crowd, proving how much Rick Michaels is loved at Peachstate.

The heels fought dirty in this match, as one of the Young Lions was hit in the head with the French flag by Romeo while the referee's back was turned. The referee didn't see the tag when Michaels tried to tag into to save his partner, so Kaufman was isolated for a long time.  He showed great resilience, and he finally tagged in Lex Lee.  Kaufman and Lee double teamed Marx, then Kincaid. They then dived outside the ring on top of them. Romeo took advantage, and pinned Rick Michaels after a neckbreaker. It was a terrific opener.

Match 2: Damian Ceretone vs. Jimmy Rave
Winner: Jimmy Rave.

The wrestlers appeared before the referee did. Security had to go to the back and find him. Once the referee was found, Rave evaded being searched swearing he had nothing hidden on his person. He had his fingers crossed behind his back. This match featured a lot of mat wrestling at the beginning. Rave clearly had a lot of supporters even though he's clearly a heel. Rave won the match and posed for the camera to celebrate his win. Security aided his opponent to the back

Tommy Too Much came out to explain why he choked Simon Sermon at the previous show. He said. "For thirteen years we've been partners. How come my face isn't on the posters. that's my voice on the music, not his. That song made Simon Sermon famous." He pulled out a costume. "I designed this. This outfit made Simon Sermon famous." He went onto explain how all the rest of the Exotic Ones held singles titles, but he'd never held one. "I've carried Simon Sermon for thirteen years, and I want what's owed to me. Simon Sermon's going to be ended. There won't be no Simon Sermon here."

Shane Noles said "Most people here told me to fire you tonight, but firing you is letting you off the hook. July 5th, instead of firing you, you'll face Simon Sermon." Too Much responded "Simon Sermon's got to get in this ring and give me $5000 in front of all these Obama loving idiots. If he gives me all that money, then I'll give him his match. It has to be done in that ring. I'm not riding his coattails anymore." Noles responded "Tommy, clear your schedule. I'm going to call Simon Sermon right now."

Match 3: The Dragon vs. Odinson
Winner: Odinson

The crowd was clearly behind Odinson during this match. It spilled outside the ring rather quickly. The Dragon kept trying to choke Odinson, and when the referee tried to stop him, Dragon would push the referee.  Odinson won the match with a spinning side slam, pinning The Dragon. The crowd chanted at The Dragon, "You got beat" which seemed to be a favorite chant at Peachstate.

Rick Michaels gave a heartfelt speech about his pro wrestling career and his time at Peachstate. "For three years, this company has been my life. Whether there are 668 or 68, this place has the most awesome fans. Since 1985, all I've wanted to do was be a pro wrestler. In 1991, I got to start that journey, but after today..." At that point the entire crowd broke out into a "No" chant.

Michaels continued, "My body and my mind need to be healed. Tonight was my last match in pro wrestling. I want to apologize to Shane, The Young Lions, and mostly to the fans."  Prince Akbar interrupted Michaels to tell the crowd he'd signed The French Sensation, Romeo.  Romeo took the microphone. "Let me tell you something American people. I've finally found someone who shares the same values as me and who hates this hell hole America. Nobody gives a crap about ya'll. I think you're leaving because you can't swallow the fact you've been beaten not once, not twice, but four times by the French sensation."

Michaels hit Romeo, then said "Go tell your countrymen you just got bitchslapped by a queer. Let's do this in seven days, a full participation strap match. 8 lucky fans get to be in the match. Since you like to wave your flag so much, there will be flags on a pole. If I climb up and get old glory, you have to sing our anthem. Every ticket to this show will be $5, that's for ringside, general admission, anywhere in the building." The whole crowd chanted USA at Akbar and Romeo as they exited.

Match 4: Ace Haven (w/Amy Haven) vs. Kevin Blue

The crowd was clearly behind Kevin Blue during this match. The match was a fast paced, high energy contest, and it was gorgeous.  Blue suplexed Haven at the end, and it looked like Blue had won, however it was determined that both men's shoulders were on the mat. The officials declared the Jr. Heavyweight title vacant. At that time, Jimmy Rave came out and said they should kick Ace Haven out of the picture and he and Kevin Blue should have a match for the title since he'd beaten both Haven and Blue previously. Officials decided that all three men will compete in a triple threat match for the vacated title on July 5th.

Main Event: Fred Yehi vs. Adam Jacobs in a 10 round boxing match.

During the main event, I was afforded the privilege of sitting at ringside as a guest judge for the match along with JB Lamentary and Dave Wills. This match was a 10 round boxing match. Each round lasted two minutes, and had a 60 second rest period in between.

Jacobs entered the ring with Jimmy Rave in his corner. He wore a motorcycle helmet which officials were quick to point out was not official headgear. They made him change into official headgear before allowing the match to continue. Yehi had no one in his corner during the first round and he threw the corner stool out of the ring during the rest period.   Jacobs acted cowardly at the beginning of the match, leaving the ring twice to avoid Yehi's assault. At the beginning of the second round, Ace Haven joined Fred Yehi in his corner. It was obvious he only joined Yehi at ringside to keep an eye on his opponent in next week's triple threat, Jimmy Rave. Rave was funny as Jacob's corner guy, as he poured water on him and fanned him with the towel. Jacobs stuck Yehi with a low blow in the third round. During the fourth round, Jacobs ran around the ring and tried to leave. He was clearly scared of Yehi. In round five, Jacobs tried to use the stool as a weapon. Yehi lost a glove, and he appeared hurt, though he carried on valiantly.

During the sixth round, Jimmy Rave ran into the ring and beat up Yehi. He was banned from ringside. Jacobs kicked Yehi while he was down, and hit Yehi so hard he lost his mouthguard. Jacobs pulled Yehi's arm over the rope in the eighth round, and Yehi did the same to Jacobs. Jacobs kicked Yehi in the shin.  Yehi got in some good offense in the beginning of the ninth round.  In round 10 Jacobs got a bucket of water thrown on him, then Ace Haven did the same to Fred Yehi. Yehi won the match with a knockout in the tenth round. Jacobs and Yehi hugged as a sign of good sportsmanship at the end of the match. Yehi tells Jimmy Rave that he now has a target on his back.

Peachstate Wrestling Alliance returns to Carrollton on July 5. Three matches have been set for that show so far, Rick Michaels vs. Romeo in a "full participation" strap match, Tommy Too Much vs. Simon Sermon, and Ace Haven, Jimmy Rave, and Kevin Blue in a triple threat match for the Jr. Heavyweight title. All seats for the July 5th show are five dollars.

Platinum Championship Wrestling--June 21, 2014--Porterdale, GA

44 fans showed up to see the final show before July 4th's War Games, and sparks were already ready to fly.

Jeff G. Bailey came out bragging about how his team is going to beat up Rachel's. He showed the crowd pictures of the attack from the last show, including a magazine cover that showed him putting Rachel in the camel clutch. Rachel came out with Supernatural and Shane Marx and said "This is my team, but it's not my whole team. I told you there'd be a day when you no longer called the shots. That day has come. If you're worthy to call the shots, put one of your guys against Supernatural. If he wins, I'll tell you the rest of my team. If not, I'll tell you when I'm good and ready."

Match 1: Supernatural vs. "Hit for Hire" Bobby Moore
Winner: Supernatural

Jeff G. Bailey chose Bobby Moore to take on Supernatural. Moore threw his shirt at Rachel and said "Go do my laundry." Some kids yelled at him and he yelled back "I will take your cheetos." Moore tried repeatedly to best Supernatural, but Supernatural was resilient. Moore resorted to dastardly tactics, going for his loaded elbow pad, which Supernatural avoided. Supernatural won the match by rolling Moore up, and the crowd went insane. Bailey's thugs came out to try and lay waste to Supernatural, but Supernatural slid out of the ring in time to avoid them. This was a good opener. Both guys really sold the punishment they dished out to each other, and they fired the crowd up.

Match 2: Warhorse Moral High Horse vs. ???
Winner: ???

Warhorse Moral High Horse told the announcers that the crowd shouldn't see PCW Action, and that they shouldn't see wrestling.
A mysterious hooded figure came out to challenge Warhorse Moral High Horse, and some members of the crowd were chanting "Let us See!" Before Saturday's show a mysterious video circulated that repeated the words, Let us see!. It was sent to those who were supposed to be part of "The Watch."  The mysterious figure made quick work of Warhorse Moral High Horse, and then he took the microphone. He said "People of Porterdale, I see you. If you ever see me, If you ever need me, say Let us see."

Match 3: "Do or Die" Chip Day vs. "Mr. Inspirational" Morgan Davis III.
Winner: "Do or Die" Chip Day

Day began the match aggressively, but Davis fought him off. Davis did a good crossbody, and his kicks have improved. Jeff G. Bailey taunted Davis while Day beat him up, saying that he'd never be champion and that he'd never be as good as Day. Day won the match after delivering a side slam to Davis. Davis's wrestling skills have improved since his last run in PCW, however, his character does not match his new moniker. He is as inspiring as plain oatmeal. Chip Day, Sylar Cross, and Adrian Armour gave Davis a beat down after their match, showing they were serious about taking out anyone who might join Miss Rachel's War Games team.

Johnny Danger and his brother Devlin Valek formally announced the formation of their new team, The Danger City Demons. Danger tried to teach Valek how to have fun during Johnny Danger Time. Danger told the crowd he planned to absolutely murder Quasi Mandisco in the Porterdale Street Fight on July 4th. Danger danced to "ABC" by The Jackson Five, and Valek looked like he wanted no part of it. He looked positively frightened at Danger's dancing.

Quasi Mandisco came out and insulted the crowd's ability to clap on the beat. "The only person who's going to die in that street fight on July 4th is you, Johnny Danger. What are you gonna do when Quasimania runs wild on you?"

Match 4: The Danger City Demons (Johnny Danger and Devlin Valek) vs. MAIM (Deandre Jackson and "Pump Yo Brakes" Steve Goins.)
Winners: MAIM

Both teams worked reasonably well together in this match, but my hope is that with time they will develop more synchronicity . The crowd was in strong support of The Danger City Demons.Part of that is due to the fact that Quasi Mandisco could draw heat from an ice cube, and part is because Johnny Danger does his best to entertain the fans, and they've really grown to love him.   MAIM won the match, but only after causing confusion when Goins tried to introduce a 2 by 4 into the ring. Danger snatched the 2 by 4 from Goins. The referee turned to deal with Danger allowing Goins to get Valek with a low blow. Goins pinned Valek when the referee turned back around. Savage Shane joined his MAIM teammates in the ring and they decimated Valek and Danger. Mandisco tried to break Valek in half with a modified Boston crab, yelling at Danger "This is going to be you, you son of a bitch." He then hit Valek in the head with brass knuckles. Announcer Chuck Porterfield yelled at Mandisco "I hope on the 4th of July Johnny Danger beats your ass."

Match 5: Savage Shane vs. "Go Time" Erik Jones vs. "The Hammer of the Gods" Sylar Cross.
Winner: Savage Shane

Sylar Cross seemed content during this match to assist Savage Shane.  He threw Shane on Eric who went for the pin. Chip Day came out to the ring to assist Cross in beating down Jones, and Shane got the pin due to Day's interference. The heels are staying true to their word and they're taking down the competition one man at a time. Go Time took the microphone and said "This is the third time this has happened. Savage Shane you're nothing but a little punk. Be like a grown man and show me you have a pair at July 4th so I can beat your ass.

Main Event: "The Revelation" Shane Marx vs. Adrian Armour

Marx really shined in this match. Armour attacked Rachel and Marx went to her defense. For his trouble he got beaten up right at my feet. It's delicious how much heat Armour got just for going after Rachel. Marx did a wicked spear to Armour for a two count. Marx went for Natural Selection, but Armour fought his way down.  Armour attempted to best Marx with his own move, a spinebuster, but Marx retaliated with a spinebuster of his own. Both men were down, and they managed to get up just as the referee counted to nine. They exchanged blows, and they both argued with the referee, pushing and shoving until they both shoved him and the match ended in a double disqualification.

Armour's compatriots Chip Day and Sylar Cross came out to beatdown Marx, and the heroes came out to his aid.  The monster Grotesque, who PCW audiences haven't seen since the Destroy all monsters casket match at Sacred Ground III, made his return and chokeslammed Adrian Armour.

Rachel announced that her team will comprise Supernatural, Shane Marx, the monster Grotesque, and she announced the return of fan favorite, Mason. Bailey's team for War Games includes "Hit for Hire" Bobby Moore, Adrian Armour, Sylar Cross, and "Do or Die" Chip Day. Because War Games teams traditionally include five members each, Rachel and Jeff G. Bailey will compete inside the cage with their respective teams.  War Games will take place at Porterdale's annual 4th of July festival. Admission to the event is free, but premium ringside seating is available for $20.

NWA Atlanta--May 24, 2014--Locust Grove, GA

Match 1: Joey Kidman and The Russian Assassin vs. Bill the Butcher and Pain
Winners: Bill the Butcher and Pain

Prince Akbar came out with Kidman and The Russian Assassin and said that if the referee didn't hold Pain and Bill back then his team would leave and there would be no match.  Joey Kidman's slimmed down some, and his "psycho" heel gimmick got a fair amount of heat from the Locust Grove crowd.

Joey Kidman locked up with Bill the Butcher. Joey clotheslined Bill, but The Russian Assassin tagged himself in before Joey could capitalize.  Butcher and Pain double teamed The Russian Assassin and manhandled him. Kidman abandoned his partner in frustration because he wasn't given another chance to tag in.  Pain knocked The Russian Assassin down with just a thumb, pinned him, and left him for dead.

Tradition came out and Zac Edwards announced them.  "Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, white trash of all ages," he crowed to the audience.  "We're not just the best here at NWA Atlanta. We're the best in the state of GA. Tradition is about the greatest champions. We are the 4 best in the state, and later tonight Fry Daddy and Marko are going to know that.  If you hillbilly rednecks don't show these men some respect when they come out later tonight I'm gonna bust some skulls."

Match 2: Trevor Aeon vs. The Curry Kidd
Winner: The Curry Kidd

Aeon was accused of trying to pull the "hair" on Curry Kidd's mask.  Curry Kidd pulled out a comb and attempted to comb Aeon's hair. Aeon did armbar on Curry Kidd and managed to get his shoulders down, but Curry Kidd kicked out at two.  Curry Kidd danced while Aeon walked around the ring.  Aeon made a large offense, but Curry Kidd kicked out at two. Curry Kidd failed at a sunset flip attempt, and he continued to make several pin attempts.  He did a scissor kick for a two count.  Then he did a "curricanrana" into a submission and Aeon tapped.

Match 3: DJ Clarke and Kyle O'Grady vs. Andy Anderson and Tyson Dean
Winners: Andy Anderson and Tyson Dean

When I realized DJ Clarke and Kyle O'Grady were taking on Andy Anderson and Tyson Dean, I took one look at them and referred to them as "sacrificial lamb 1" and "sacrificial lamb 2", and that's pretty much how the match went. Dean manhandled O'Grady, then handed him off to Anderson who picked up where Dean left off. Anderson knocked Clarke off the apron, and while the referee admonished Anderson, Dean interfered. Dean and Anderson further humiliated the opponents by not making their sacrifice quick and painless. They yelled "Come on fight back" to their prone opponents. Anderson ended it by doing pushups as he pinned one of them.

Match 4: Delicious Don vs. Colt Callaway
Winner: Colt Callaway

I realize that Colt Callaway is attempting to appear high energy and eager when he enters the ring, but all the kicking and punching the air makes him look like he's swatting away a hundred angry hornets. The match was mediocre. I've seen better from Callaway . Callaway won with a new finisher.

Match 5: Prince Akbar vs. Drew Adler for the NWA Atlanta Heavyweight Championship
Winner: Drew Adler

Akbar had a couple of weapons hidden in his knee and elbow pads which led to the referee having to check him multiple times.  Drew attempted to jump over Akbar's head. Drew tried to grab Akbar between his legs and flip him, but it didn't work. Drew slapped him. Drew put him in a headlock and grabbed his nose. Akbar left the ring. He's played the coward for a long time, and it's getting old to me.  The crowd does seem to hate him. Drew pinned Akbar after a bicycle kick.

Matt Sells came to the ring.  "How did you like seeing Drew Adler defend my Mattlanta championship. I delivered the most memorable wrestling performance you peons have ever seen. That championship would be with me if not for the actions of one man. That man is not Drew Adler. It's my former best friend, Johnny Danger. You powerbombed me from 10 feet.  I'm demanding an apology.  You took my NWA Mattlanta championship, and you're not fit to lick my boots."

Johnny Danger responded. "You want me to apologize. For over 20 years now it's been about what you want. When I suffered a concussion, I came back to wrestling because you needed me. When I dislocated my knee, I came back because you needed me. When I said I needed you, you handed me a pair of green shorts and expected me to be your cheerleader. The name Johnny Danger used to mean something in Georgia wrestling.  You told me I'd go places with you. Now you're moving onto bigger and better things. I hope it's my foot that kicks your ass out the door. NWA let us fight."

Match 6: Johnny Danger vs. Matt "Sex" Sells
Winner: Johnny Danger

Sells attacked Danger before the match started then the referee rang the bell.  Danger threw Sells into the barricade. Danger did a bulldog to Sells for a two count.  Sells did a neckbreaker then punched Danger in the face. He then kneed Danger in the face.  Sells did a cutter to Danger.  He followed that with his taunt move where he does pelvic swirls while his opponent's head is between his legs. He played drums on his head then turned him over and smashed his face into the mat.  Danger speared Sells for a two count. Sells did an abdominal stretch and played guitar on Danger's abs. He grabbed the ropes to gain leverage during this move.  Sells slammed Danger for a two count. Danger kicked Sells as Sells jumped off the turnbuckle. Danger chopped Sells in the chest, then dangerkicked him for a two count.  Sells did a stunner but only managed a two count. He wrapped around him and tried for a roll-up, but to no avail.  He did a snapmare then did his pelvic swirl, pounded their face into the mat move he's famous for.  Finally Johnny Danger won the match.  It looked like they were going to put aside their differences with a handshake and a hug, but they kicked each other in the balls. This was the most entertaining segment of the show. I will miss Matt Sells and his sense of theatrics. My sincere hope is that NWA Atlanta recognizes that Johnny Danger would be a valued asset as a fan favorite and that his tenure doesn't end because Sells is moving to another city.

Main Event: Fry Daddy and Marko Polo vs. The Bald Beautiful Besties.
Winners: The Bald, Beautiful Besties.

I have few words for the delicious horror that is the Bald Beautiful Besties theme song. It fits them perfectly, and it is mockable beyond belief.  Polo began the match against Michael Stevens. Marko spanked Stevens. He tagged in Fry Daddy and Fry Daddy did a takedown then a kick.  Polo tagged back in and he was isolated for a good portion of the match. When Fry Daddy finally got in, he did big elbows. He attempted a roll up, then did another elbow.  Marko bashed both of the Bald Besties heads together, and Fry Daddy toppled them with a suicide dive. Zac Edwards rolled up Fry Daddy for the win, but he had a handful of tights. The Besties retained.



NWA Atlanta is scheduled for another show on June 7th.

Platinum Championship Wrestling--May 17, 2014--Porterdale,GA

60 fans graced The Main Event in Porterdale, GA.  Action is starting to heat up as Platinum Championship Wrestling approaches July 4th and the annual "Revolutionary Wargames".  

Match 1: Warhorse 54 and Warhorse 4th Period vs. Geter

Winner: Geter

Geter made quick work of the two warhorses, and the entire crowd was behind him the whole time. He quickly pinned one of them with a sit-out piledriver.  

Geter took the mic and said to the crowd, "Shut your mouth and listen.  Everyone wants to know what happened to Brian Blaze. Brian Blaze is in the hospital with a bad back and a neck brace." Sylar Cross and Adrian Armour came out to gloat about how they would steal Geter's spot in the Tag Team Season because Geter no longer had a partner.  Geter challenged Armour and Cross to a match on the spot, which pleased the Porterdale crowd, but Armour and Cross cowered away.  Geter followed them upstairs angrily.  

Match 2: Deandre Jackson (w/Quasi Mandisco) vs. Morgan Davis III

Winner: Deandre Jackson

Davis began with some kicks, but Jackson came back in defense.  Mandisco interfered by choking Davis with his scarf while the referee's back was turned.  Davis was over with the crowd by the simple virtue of taking on Mandisco's man Jackson.  Jackson slammed Davis, then bowled him over. Davis sold Jackson's attacks reasonably well with his facial expressions.  Davis came back with a flurry of kicks, but Jackson took him back town. Davis evaded Jackson's clothesline and followed it with a kick.  Jackson took advantage of Davis arguing with the referee and Mandisco. He powerbombed Davis then finished with an elbow from the second rope for the win.  

This was Morgan Davis's first match with Platinum Championship Wrestling in over a year. During his last run with PCW, he was the guy that everyone kind of forgot. Hopefully this time his skills are improved and he'll make more of an impact. 

Match 3:

"Go Time" Erik Jones vs. "The Revelation" Shane Marx (w/Miss Rachel)

Winner: "The Revelation" Shane Marx

The match began with a lot of grappling. Marx put Jones in an ankle lock. Jones escaped, and he did a nice dropkick.  He tried to suplex Marx but Marx countered.  Marx missed a move and Jones kicked him. Jones covered Marx, but Marx kicked out. Marx did a back breaker, and he manhandled Jones. Marx tried desperately to get Jones to tap to his submission hold.  Jones attempted to get Marx with a sunset flip, but it failed.  

Marx punched Jones in the back, and Jones stayed down.  Marx scoop slammed Jones, then he went to the second rope but Jones rolled out of the way.  Jones did 2 enzigiris, a kick, and a headscissors take down. Marx did a spinebuster, but only got a two count.  Marx caught Jones, powerbombed him, then put him in a Boston Crab. Jones tapped. 

The voice of Casey Kincaid came over the sound system talking to Shane Marx about his turn on PCW to join the Empire in 2011.  "There's a lot of bad blood. I was there. Now you're a hero again. You're no hero. You have sins. You will face me. You're going to deal with me. See you around." 

Rachel reassured Shane, "He's not right. Things are different now." Shane replied, "You stay here. I need to deal with this." This small interaction was very well done, and it cemented the friendship between Rachel and her client Marx. 

Rachel took the microphone and said "I've got something to deal with too. Jeff G. Bailey, get your boochi shoes in the ring." Bailey responded "You've got a lot of nerve."  Rachel said, "Cut his tacky music. It's already May, soon it will be June, then our 4th of July show, the Revolutionary Wargames. No one is set up for that spot. You come up with a team. I'll come up with a team. We'll duke it out."  Jeff responded, "When I took Stephen Platinum out of wrestling, I became the kingpin here. You can't tell me who will be in revolutionary wargames. "Do or Die" Chip Day will come out here, and if her guy can beat Chip, she'll get her match." 

Match 4: Supernatural vs. Chip Day

Winner: Supernatural

Supernatural wasted no time, and the match spilled outside the ring almost immediately.  Supernatural bounced Day's head off a barricade before tossing him in the ring. Day cleared a whole bench of fans to throw Supernatural into the wall then do a kick from the bench.  Day chopped Supernatural in the corner, then repeated in the opposite corner.  The action spilled outside the ring again. Supernatural did a back stabber, covered Day, but Day kicked out at two.  Day regained control, climbed to the top rope, and stomped Supernatural's back. It looked like he'd broken Supernatural in half.  Supernatural kicked Chip. He tried to submit Chip using his full body in an octopus hold. Chip escaped, then kicked him.  Chip decided to grab the belt and hit him earning Supernatural the win by disqualification.  

Jeff G. Bailey explained that it was beneficial for his team to fight Rachel's team.  He cautioned Rachel, " I hope you have someone better than that because he was no competition for "Do or Die" Chip Day. You want war, you'll get it." 

Match 5: The Young Bloodz vs. The Washington Bullets. 

Winner: The Washington Bullets. 

This match was really good. The Young Bloodz have a good team dynamic, and the Bullets are experienced enough to make any opponent look good.  The Bullets won the match, and it was a great outing for both teams.  It was very entertaining.  Both teams shook hands after to show their mutual respect.  

Main Event: Sugar Shane and Pump Yo Brakes vs. Marko Polo and The Platinum Crusader. 

Winners: Sugar Shane and Pump Yo Brakes. 

Polo and Pump Yo Brakes began the match. Polo did an arm drag, and Pump Yo Brakes quickly exited the ring before Polo gained any momentum.  Polo scoop slammed Shane three times.  Polo was isolated for most of the match. The crusader kept trying to get in to aid his partner, but the referee kept blocking him.  The entire time the referee argued with the Crusader Shane choked Polo.  The Crusader finally made it into the ring, but as he began cleaning house, Quasi Mandisco pushed him. The referee didn't see, and Shane won the match because of Quasi's interference.  

Quasi and his hired thugs, MAIM, tied up Polo with a scarf, then proceeded to unmask The Platinum Crusader. It wasn't the real Platinum Crusader, it was Devlin Valek, returning to PCW.  The real Crusader came out with a hammer. Erik Jones came out and picked up a chair, and Valek picked up a chair. They all went after MAIM.  

PCW returns to Porterdale, GA on June 7th. 

Platinum Championship Wrestling--May 3, 2014--Porterdale, GA

62 fans graced the Main Event in Porterdale, but they were loud enough it felt like over a hundred.  What Porterdale's venue lacks in size, it makes up in the enthusiasm of its fans.

Match 1: "Dynomite Soul" Eric Walker vs. "Do or Die" Chip Day (w/ Jeff G. Bailey)
Winner: "Do or Die" Chip Day

This match had an interesting stipulation because if Walker won the match he earned the right to challenge Chip Day for the PCW title, however, if he lost it signaled the end of his PCW career.  Walker began the match with a wicked knee, and the match spilled outside quickly.  Walker slammed Chip's face into the barricade. Day rolled Walker back into the ring. Walker hit Day with a knee and followed with a backbreaker for a 2 count.  Walker boxed Chip's ears while he had him down.

 Day punched Walker in the coruner, did a snapmare, then stomped Walker in the face.  Day unsuccessfully attempted to pin Walker several times in a row.  Day did a snapmare, followed that with a kick, but missed a kneedrop.  Walker slammed Day and followed it with a knee.  Walker suplexed Day, but Day managed to kick out at 2.  Day chopped Walker in the chest, threw him into the rope, and hit him with a knee.

Walker's knee was definitely hurting him, and Day capitalized on the injury by wrapping the leg around the turnbuckle.  The two exchanged blows, and Walker was beaten down for a few minutes.  Day landed a blow to Walker's face. Walker did a dropkick, and Day was backed into the corner.  Walker did a rolling kick to Day's face and managed a 2 count.  Day repeatedly kicked Walker, but Walker gained momentum with a flying dynomite punch to Day. Walker covered Day, but Day kicked out.  Day did a tornado kick, but he only got a 2 count on Walker.

The two exchanged blows again. Day landed a big kick to Walker, and Walker answered it with a big knee. They traded slaps, then Walker did another big knee to Day.  Day kicked Walker at the top corner. Day attempted a superplex, but Walker knocked him down then flew down on him. Walker still only managed a 2 count after this awesome feat.  Walker kneed Day again, and Day went outside the ring to regain his bearings.  The referee argued with Jeff G. Bailey. Walker went for Bailey, and while the referee scolded Walker for his actions Day hit Walker with the belt. He slammed Walker and picked up the win with his treacherous ways.  Day threw Walker out of the ring like he was trash.

Bailey gave Walker some malicious parting words. "You're never going to wrestle in this ring again.  Your PCW career is over at the hands of "Do or Die" Chip Day.  There's a Burger King down the road. I'm sure they're hiring. Who's left for Chip Day to beat?" A fan asked Bailey, "Why don't you fight him?"  Bailey responded, "Why don't I come down and slap your face?"

Match 2: Sugar Shane (w/Quasi Mandisco) vs. "Go Time" Erik Jones
Winner: Sugar Shane

Quasi Mandisco riled up the audience in his usual fashion. He told one fan she smelled like menopause, and he referred to me as "dork girl."  Shane began the match by working Jones' arm.  The action spilled out of the ring. Jones slammed Shane onto the benches near the wrestlers' entrance.   Mandisco choked Jones with his scarf while the referee was distracted. He did it twice then acted like he was nowhere near the ring when the referee turned around.  Shane took advantage as he placed Jones in a headlock, but lost it again when he missed an elbow.

Shane kicked Jones in the head while he was still down. Jones answered with a kick to Shane, but both men were down.  Jones did three German suplexes to Shane.  While the referee wasn't looking, Mandisco thre a screwdriver into the ring. Shane used it to win by poking Jones in the face.

Match 3: William Huckaby (w/Joe Black) vs. Jon Williams (w/Trey Williams)
Winner: Jon Williams

The match was fast paced from the beginning with each wrestler giving as good as he got.  Williams took advantage midmatch with a good dropkick.  Huckaby left the ring for a minute to regroup, and Williams dived out of the ring onto Huckaby and knocked him down.  Williams rolled Huckaby back into the ring, covered him, but Huckaby kicked out.  Huckaby did a spinebuster to Williams, attempted a pin, but Williams kicked out.  Huckaby attempted to submit Williams, but Williams got up and elbowed him.  Joe Black interfered on Huckaby's behalf, but for his trouble he received the wrath of Trey Williams. 

Huckaby slammed Williams, but he only managed a 2 count.  Huckaby missed two punch attempts. Williams did a backbreaker then went up top. He did a flying dropkick then followed with a kick to the back of Huckaby's head.  He attempted a crossbody, but Huckaby caught him and slammed him. Williams kicked out of Huckaby's pin attempt. Williams did an off the top rope backstabber and pinned Huckaby for the win.

Match 4: Joe Black (w/William Huckaby) vs. Trey Williams (w/Jon Williams)

Williams got Black down, but Black got up. He worked Williams' arm then headbutt his hand.  Williams ran Black around the ring in an amusing manner.  Williams followed that with two armdrags and a leg drop. He then did a dropkick to Black's neck. Black left the ring to regroup. Williams tried to break Black's arm, followed that with a leg drop on the apron.  Williams did a huge suicide dive and landed on Black outside the ring.  The crowd went crazy at that daring feat.

Black stood on Williams' face. Black made pin attempt after pin attempt, but the odds weren't in his favor.  Williams landed several back elbows then a spinebuster, but still only managed the 2 count.  The referee became way too interested in trying to separate Jon Williams and William Huckaby outside the ring. Trey Williams attempted to pin Joe Black, but William Huckaby attacked the referee to break up the pin. The crowd began chanting "Cheater".  Black did a backbreaker, but only managed a 2 count.

Black and Williams exchanged blows. Williams kicked Black's face twice. William Huckaby tried to interfere to no avail. Williams won the match by stomping Black down and pinning him.

Match 5: The Platinum Crusader and Supernatural vs. Quasi Mandisco and Pump Yo Brakes

The match was originally supposed to feature Marko Polo as the Platinum Crusader's partner, however Quasi Mandisco entered to Polo's music, and we witnessed the return of Pump Yo Brakes. The Platinum Crusader was beaten down for a few moments since he did not have a partner.  Just when the audience thought the Platinum Crusader was done for, out of nowhere came Supernatural.  The fans went insane because most thought that Mandisco and his group MAIM ended Supernatural's career a few months ago.

The Platinum Crusader used Supernatural as a human weapon to knock down Pump Yo Brakes.  Supernatural and Platinum Crusader double teamed Pump Yo Brakes. Mandisco and Pump Yo Brakes tortured Supernatural outside the ring.  Supernatural remained isolated for a long time.  Pump Yo Brakes taunted the Platinum Crusader about Supernatural's inability to tag him. The referee tried to break up that argument, and in the background Mandisco choked Supernatural with his scarf.

Supernatural stomped Pump Yo Brakes' neck, and he finally tagged in the Platinum Crusader.  The Platinum Crusader took down Pump Yo Brakes with a bulldog, and Pump Yo Brakes answered with a slam.  He tagged in Mandisco who stomped the Platinum Crusasder for a few minutes. He repeatedly tried to choke the Platinum Crusader having to break the hold at the 4 count.  Mandisco tried to hit the Platinum Crusader, but the Crusader moved out of his way, and he hit Pump Yo Brakes instead. Supernatural got the win for his team with a double stomp from the top rope.

Mandisco and Pump Yo Brakes didn't take their loss well. They tied Supernatural to the ring ropes, and they attempted to unmask the Platinum Crusader.  Dynomite Soul came to Supernatural and the Platinum Crusader's aid and Mandisco and Pump Yo Brakes scattered like the rats they are.  Mandisco vowed that next time they'd get that mask no matter what.

Shane Mackey came to the ring and personally thanked "Dynomite Soul" Eric Walker for the matches he's done for PCW.  Dynomite Soul gave a heartfelt speech about the six years he's given to PCW, and he broke down in tears in the middle of the ring.

Platinum Championship Wrestling returns to Porterdale on May 17.

Platinum Championship Wrestling--April 5th, 2014--Porterdale,GA

67 people showed up to The Main Event in Porterdale, GA for PCW.  The crowd was down from last time, but they were enthusiastic.  There was a lot about the show to be enthusiastic about.

Match 1: "Hit for Hire" Bobby Moore vs. "Marvelous" Marko Polo vs. "The Revelation" Shane Marx (w/Miss Rachel).
Winner: "Hit for Hire" Bobby Moore

The ladies in the audience squealed when Marko Polo entered and took off his wrap.  What I noticed most is the transformation in Rachel. She carried herself with a different energy. She acted more like a cheerleader than an enemy. Even her hair had bounce and energy instead of the severe beauty she used to possess.  The entire match it was obvious how badly Bobby Moore wanted to get his hands on Shane Marx. Marko knocked Bobby Moore on his butt and then he and Shane Marx double teamed Moore.  Moore circled the ring for a while letting the other two wear each other down.  He attacked Rachel, and Marx came out to defend her.  Moore slammed him into the ringpost.  Marko did a side Russian leg sweep to Moore for a pin attempt. Moore assaulted Marx with elbows.  Marko broke up Moore's pin attempt. Moore attempted to pin Shane again, but he kicked out.  Moore and Marx exchanged blows to the face.  Marko came back with a giant leg drop to Shane, but only managed a two count. Shane punched out Marko, and did the Natural Selection on him, but only managed a two count.  Shane went for Bobby Moore, but Moore evaded, and Marx's spear hit Marko.  Moore knocked Shane out of the ring and stole his pin.  This match did a great job of furthering the feud between Moore and Marx. Moore is really showing the anger he feels over Rachel leaving him to remain Marx's manager, and the feud keeps getting better.

Match 2: De La Vega vs. Adrian Armour (w/Sylar Cross)
Winner: De La Vega

Adrian Armour wasted no time. He attacked De La Vega before he even entered the ring. He was right at my feet when the attack started.  Adrian took his time entering the ring. The referee got all the way to nine before he decided to enter.  Vega made the first pin attempt after an arm drag and two hip tosses, but Armour kicked out.  Armour kicked Vega in the head while he was down.  The whole crowd was behind Vega, and Sylar Cross yelled at us to "Shut up!"  Armour slammed Vega then stomped his head into the mat. He then chopped Vega in the corner.  Sylar choked Vega on the ropes while Adrian Armour cleverly distracted the referee.  Armour threw shots at Vega's midsection. Vega clotheslined Armour, but Armour knocked him back down.  Armour missed a move, and Vega capitalized for a moment, but was unsuccessful in a pin attempt.  Vega countered a suplex attempt from Armour, then he punched Armour in the face.  Armour did a knee from the second rope, but Vega kicked out of the pin at two.  Armour followed this with a sit-out powerbomb, but still only managed a two count.  Armour powerbombed Vega again, but Vega pushed him off at the pin attempt.  Armour climbed up the turnbuckle, but Vega kicked him off. Vega won the match with a top rope scissor kick.  The crowd was solidly behind Vega for the entire match, and Vega stood up to everything that was thrown at him.   He told Adrian Armour it was the third time he's been beaten by the grown ass man, and that it is time for him to get a shot at the PCW championship.  Sylar and Adrian responded to that by beating him up. Dynomite Soul came to his aid. He said that he challenged Chip Day for the championship, and that he was willing to put his career on the line. De La Vega's return to the light side has been handled flawlessly. He no longer behaves as a petulant child, and instead he's handling his business the way a "grown ass man" would.

Match 3: Warhorse "Priceless" vs. "Go Time" Erik Jones
Winner: "Go Time" Erik Jones

As Warhorse "Priceless" entered he talked to a very young girl in the audience. She was not amused by his advances, and she slapped him.  He gestured to other young girls in the audience and beckoned them towards the ring. I'd venture to say this joke was lost upon 90% of the Platinum audience, but they seemed suitably creeped out. To understand the joke, one would have to be a reader of Stephen Platinum's recent Full Disclosure writings. "Go Time" Erik Jones won the match quickly with an elbow.

Match 4: Sylar Cross vs. Jon Williams
Winner: Sylar Cross

Jon dropkicked Sylar, and Sylar left the ring.  Jon followed him.  Sylar tried to submit Jon, but he got out of the hold.  Sylar then did a giant clothesline, but only managed a two count.  Jon got in some punches. Sylar went for another submission, but Jon powered out of it.  Jon sprang off the ropes over Sylar's head, dodged Sylar's blow, and got in some of his own.  Sylar left the ring again, and Jon dived on him.  They both got back in the ring at the nine count. Jon did a splash off the top rope, but Sylar powered out of the pin.  Jon kneed Sylar in the corner. Sylar slammed Jon hard, but Jon powered out of the pin. Jon did a slingshot codebreaker to Sylar, but Sylar kicked out of the pin attempt. Sylar caught Jon's feet and locked in a Texas cloverleaf. Sylar won the match by putting Jon to sleep. Trey Williams had to come out and superkick Sylar in the head to get him to release the hold.

Quasi Mandisco came out and said he's the best thing at PCW. "This masked superhero won't ruin my plans. I'm going to sit right here until he comes out, unmasks, and shows who he is." He sat in the middle of the ring and proceeds to insult the audience. He said to a fan who wore a fake beard to imitate Bray Wyatt, "Hey dumbass. What's going on with the beard? No one loves you. Your parents don't even love you."
He then returned to the task at hand. "I'm waiting. Where are you, Platinum Crusader? Where are you, hero?"  Out came the Platinum Crusader and Quasi continued his rant "You know I'm the reason people come out to the show. You're going down a very dangerous road, messing with a very dangerous man. You remember what happened to him." Quasi pulled out Supernatural's mask. He then told everyone he believed that Johnny Danger was the Platinum Crusader and reminded the crowd of the restraining order against Johnny Danger. He said he'd take good care of Danger's wife while he was in jail. "Take off your mask. Be a good role model. Tell the Truth. All you are is a waste of time and a waste of air. Unmask." The Platinum Crusader grabbed the microphone and into it he screamed "No!" Quasi hit the Platinum Crusader with a chair and tried to rip his mask off. The Platinum Crusader tried to hit him, but Quasi rolled out of the ring.

Main Event: Trey Williams vs. Chip Day for the PCW Heavyweight Title

Chip took a while to get in the ring. He consulted Jeff G. Bailey and walked around drinking gatorade.  Chip stopped right next to me, and I asked him if he was afraid of Trey. He said "No, he looks good tonight, and I want to look at him as much as I can."

The match itself really heated up at the five minute mark. Sylar beat up Trey outside the ring while the referee spent his time making sure Trey's brother didn't interfere in the match. Chip did a big move, and he was so proud of himself that he danced in the ring. Trey did a big kick to Chip and tried to pin him with his foot on his chest, but Chip kicked out at two. Chip kicked out of a second pin attempt.  Chip kicked Trey and followed up with a knee to Trey's head, but Chip only managed a two count.  Trey and Chip exchanged kicks and knocked each other down. Trey punched Chip in the face. Chip dodged Trey's advances and landed a kick to Trey's head. Trey gave everything in this match. Trey pinned Chip, but only managed a 2 count.  Sylar interfered and allowed Chip to capitalize with a slam.  Chip got the pin with Day of the Dead.

Miss Rachel came out after the match and extended a challenge to Chip Day. Jeff G. Bailey pointed out that Shane Marx hadn't earned a title shot. Rachel answered "I don't care about a title shot." Jeff G. Bailey and Chip Day agreed to any challenge Rachel wanted and Jeff threatened Rachel. When PCW returns to Porterdale on April 19th, Shane Marx has a challenge for Chip Day.
