RassleResults: RWA Jonesboro, AR 9.06.08

The show started with Mike Anthony doing a mic spill about his match with Rodney Mack telling the crowd what a Punk Rodney was and that he was going to take the champions belt that night. I wonder if calling Rodney Mack a punk is a good idea ever? Probably not!

Match 1.

Cody Murdock VS Pappy(of the Asylum)

This was a Big Man Challenge and had plenty of big power moves. However, the match ended in a time limit draw before either man could secure the win.

Match 2.

“Natural Born Playaz” [Pimptacular/Southside Brawler] VS J.D. Kerry and Mike Titan.

The action was fast and furious until the end. Kerry made the hot tag to Titan who came in and began cleaning the house with the Playaz. Titan finally threw Southside to the floor leaving Kerry in the ring with Pimp. Kerry was working Pimp over in the corner until Pimp grabbed his legs and secured the pin on Kerry with his feet on the ropes.

Match 3.

Rik Burton VS The Big Indian.

The heat between these two is really boiling over and both men took the fight all over the building. The match ended in a double count out, but that wasn't the end of it. At intermission, Indian came back out with a ceremonial head dress and announced that he was going to give it away to one lucky fan in the crowd. At this point, Classy Meltin Massey came out and distracted the Indian long enough for Burton to jump him from behind and not only rip the head dress to shreds, but also cram it in the Indian's mouth. The Indian will definitely have a response for this next week.

Match 4.

The Fabulous Luke Graham VS Soultrain Jones

Graham took most of the match until the end when Soultrain reversed a suplex into a pin and scored the victory. However, he made the mistake of turning his back on Graham who returned with a chair and left Jones laying in the Middle of the ring causing him to get carried out. Luke then got on the microphone and informed Jones that he had left him laying three weeks in a row and this was on the start of things to come.

Match 5.

“Asylum” [Psycho/Arnez] VS Chris Steel and Zane Richards.

The action was hot and heavy until Classy Meltin Massey tried to interfere on the floor sending Arnez of the Asylum after him. This left Psycho in the ring alone with Chris Steel who he was beginning to dispose of when Zane Richards hit Psycho from behind with a kendo stick. This didn't even phase Psycho who took the stick away from Zane and began repeatedly returning the favor. Unfortunately, the referee turned around at this point and D.Q.ed the Asylum for using the weapon that Zane and Chris had brought into the ring.

6. Rodney Mack RWA Heavyweight Champion VS Mike Anthony

This was for the RWA title and the smaller Anthony proved quite the test for the champion. Anthony was accompanied by the Playaz to the ring who seized every opportunity to interfere. Mack finally overcame the interference to make a big comeback, knocking both Playaz off the canvas in the process. At this point, Anthony charged the champion who gave him a big hip toss. Unfortunately, the hip toss sent Anthony over the ropes forcing the referee to call for the DQ on Mack. Both guys made it plain after the match that it wasn't over between them.

Even with ASU's first home game as Red Wolves the RWA still drew 100. It was a good night and the beginning of some great angles.

----Loved the angle with Indian!! That sounded like an old Memphis angle – Moondogs tearing up the Fabs’ jackets. Good stuff.
