Rassleresults: EPW Booneville, MS 2.21.09



Internet Champion Tysin Starr defeated Chazz to retain. Starr came to the ring accompanied by his tag team Partner, Chazz, who then said that he could not be at ring side during the match due to special stipulations. Chazz then went to the back. He returned when his music played to reveal that he was Tysin's opponent. The match was OK - nothing to brag about - just OK.

EPW Champion Cassanova Kid defeated Barney by submission to retain. This was not a good match - and it was NOT Cassanova Kid's fault. Barney needs to go back to refereeing.

Buzz Harley defeated Blade by reverse decision when referee KC found a chain in Blade's possession (which was planted by Buzz). Blade issued a challenge for a brass knucks on a pole match at the next show. Buzz accepted.

EPW Extreme Champion "Monkey Boy" Danny Morris won a three-way match over David Andrews and "Prime Time" Nick Grimes to retain.

"Big Indian" Quixote defeated Robert Rose. This was an awful match. Big Indian needs to stay on the reservation. Big Indian did manage to get some heat from the crowd, but the match itself was not good.

PHAT Foundation (Justin Rhodes & "Big Daddy" Nino) defeated EPW Tag Team Champions Pain, Inc. (Izzy Rotten & "Extreme" Brett Michaels) in a non-title match to become the undisputed #1 contenders for the tag team belts. PHAT Foundation gets a shot at the belts this Saturday night. Good match.

The main event was an "anything goes match," Bonecrusher/Soul Taker/JR Mauler vs. The Asylum (Psycho & Pappy) & Cody Hawk. The match started out as a brawl and got wilder and crazier by the minute. Eventually Bonecrusher/Soul Taker/JR Mauler got the upper hand, then in came Brody Hawk to make it four-on-three. The tide quickly turned in favor of Psycho/Pappy/Cody/Brody, but then Kross hit the ring to even things up. More brawling until the match was won by Psycho/Pappy/Cody/Brody by pin fall. But they were not done yet - while Bonecrusher & Soul Taker were down on the floor outside the ring, Cody & Brody hung Kross & JR with chains over the top rope. Bonecrusher & Soul Taker finally back in to make the save, Cody & Brody bailed. Great match. I am sure this is still not over by a long shot.

This Saturday night's card at EPW will include PHAT Foundation challenging Pain, Inc. for the Tag Team belts. Also on the card is a NO DQ brass knucks on a pole match between Buzz Harley & Blade. It will be a great show, so don't you miss it! It will happen at the EPW Arena on Hwy. 145 in Booneville, MS. Bell time is 7:00 p.m.

----I also posted here a video of a match filmed at EPW. There has been discussion from a few of us about how Tennessee wrestling is better than Mississippi wrestling. This match should be proof. There no psychology, just a bunch of spots at the start and a crappy finish. Execution of some of the moves was not bad [loved the RKO from the top rope], but none of it made any sense. I hate finishes where the heat is put on the ref. Why do you do that?? You trying to get your ref over as a heel?? The HEEL should leave with the heat, not the ref. Or where they even heels..LOL I mean, I am guess with Styles and Burcham at ringside. BTW..I love the new look for Burcham.
