RassleResults: RWA Jonesboro, AR 6.14.08 - Burton First RWA Champion!!

----Biscuit beat The Offical...Crazy Luke Graham JR beat Zac Richards...Silas beat PP3 & JD Carey...Ali Stevens beat Zane Richards...Ron Rage/Cody Murdock vs "Natural Born Players" [Southside Brawler/Pimptactular] - No contest...Battle Royal for RWA Title - Rik Burton wins!!

Frank Martin came out in the beginning and told the crowd that the Royal Wrestling Alliance is presenting the wrestling at 4th in the forest. Also he reminded the crowd that on July the 5th "Dr Death" Steve Williams will be in action at the Kings Sportatorium. His announcements were interpreted by "Classy" Meltin Massy and Zane Richards. Massy informed Martin that the Dog Collar match against Ali Stevens would not happen because Zane had a pulled muscle in his neck. Ali Stevens came out and asked Massy if a good old fashion wrestling match would do. Massy replied that it would. Ali then asked the crowd what they would do if one of their children was whinnying all the time like Zane and Massy? Ali answered his own question and said,"They would whoop their butts" So they made the match a fans strap match. The crowd really liked this idea.

The Official made his way out and said he has wrestled everyone that Martin had chose for him. He wanted to pick his opponent. He said he wanted someone just like him. He picked another Official, Biscuit. Biscuit agreed to it and asked Martin to be the ref and Martin agreed. The Official had the match well in hand, he hit his finisher "The Count Out" but instead of covering Biscuit The Official played to the crowd. Martin was telling him to cover Biscuit and the Official bent over to taunt biscuit and Biscuit rolled him up in a small package and pinned him. The crowd really liked this match.

Ali Stevens and Zane Richards had a great match and Zane gave the lumberjacks plenty of opportunity to hit him with the belts. Much to Zane's credit unlike most workers who will only go out a couple of times to let the fans hit them. Zane got out on all 4 sides at least twice and that made the fans really happy but Zane had marks all over his back.

Ron Rage choose Big Rig Cody Murdock as his partner for this match. He explained to the crowd after the match that last week he could not get to the arena because he had 4 flat tires. Now his partner could not make it and he warned the "Natural Born Players" that there is more than one or two members of P.O.B. and one of them is the ruler of the world and has the nickname of Psycho. Wonder who he is talking about? LOL. Things could really change in the RWA in the weeks to come.

Rik Burton did in fact win the Battle Royal and is now the RWA Heavyweight Champion. Martin presented the Belt to Rik and told him to have a good time and party all week. Next week Burton would face Rodney Mack and the title would be on the line.

----About a 100 in the crowd....Local MMA promoter Max Bishop had a "Fight Night" at Jonesboro High Gym and two softball tourney was in town. All in all it was a good night and the fans kept cool in the AC...Not surprising to see Burton with the belt, since he is the booker.
