I got a rare chance to attend this live event as it was about 2 blocks from my house and that it started at noon. It was a pretty good show, in my opinion. I finally got to see some guys that I had heard good things about and even got to see and chat with an old friend (Tasha). Attendance was around 200-250 people and it was funny watching people stopping thier cars in the middle of Summer Ave. to catch a glimspe of the action.
Match #1 - Greg King vs. Eric Wayne
Great match! You can tell these guys have been well-trained. Both guys worked the crowd well. What I liked was the match was just a good wrestling match between two good workers. A great pace with lots of good technics mixed in with a lil high-flying. Greg King gets the DQ win after Kid Nickels interferes on the behalf of Wayne.
Match #2 - Neil Taylor w/Hollywood Jimmy Blaylock vs. Jerry Lawler
Taylor and H-wood Jimmy make thier way to the ring and proceed to rip into Memphis and the fans. H-wood Jimmy was excellent on the mic. They call out Lawler who was standing, in gear, at his gimmick table. Lawler comes to the ring, says a few things and we have a match. Another great match as both Lawler and Taylor did an excellent southern wrestling match. I'm still impressed when Lawler does the dropkick. Lawler gets the win by pinfall.
Match #3 - Kid Nickels vs. Matt Justice
Good match! You can read the comments from match #1 and apply them here. Matt Justice gets the DQ win after Eric Wayne interferes on behlaf of Kid Nickels. Greg King makes the save for Justice. A challenge ensues and sets up a tag team match later in the show. Wayne/Nickles vs. King/Justice
Brian Christopher makes his way to the ring. Does a promo and in the middle of it is jumped from behind by DJ Stunner setting up a match later in the show.
Match #4 - Mr. Showtime w/Hollywood Jimmy vs. "Southern Thunder' Chris Kilgore
Not a very good match. Slow and sloppy. Showtime reacting to Kilgore's snake was hilarious. He was screaming like a lil' bitch. Kilgore had the crowd eating out of his hands, I was impressed. Maybe these guys just don't work well together cause the match was terrible. The extra-curricular activities by both guys made the match bearable.
Match #5 - DJ Stunner vs. Brian Christopher
This was a title match for a belt that BC had that know one knew what title it was. A decent match. BC did all his patented spots. BC gets the win and retains his belt.
Match #6 - Eric Wayne/Kid Nickels vs. Greg King/Matt Justice
Great match. I really can't say anymore that I haven't already said about these 4 guys. I'd pay to see these guys and would get my money's worth. Great work guys!
King/Justice get the win.
Main Event - Tasha Simone w/Hollywwod Jimmy vs. Su Yung
MLW Championship match. A good ladies match of what I saw. I had to leave in the middle of the match to get to work as I was an hour late already. Hehehe. Axeman at wrestlingnewscenter.com reports that Tasha got the win with help from H-wood Jimmy.
All in all a great show on a beautiful afternoon.
