AS I SEE IT 12/29: Thoughts on those we've lost, and on those indy wrestling helped this season

AS I SEE IT
Bob Magee
Pro Wrestling: Between the Sheets
PWBTS.com


Since New Year's Day is Monday, thought I'd put out this blog the Friday before.
Wrestling lost some major names in 2017, including two of its greatest voices, Lance Russell and Bobby Heenan. One of the most poignant farewells to Bobby Heenan came on Twitter from Corey Graves: "Without him, there is no me".

Wrestling and its fans also lost names like Tom Zenk, George "The Animal" Steele, Jimmy "Superfly" Snuka, "The Russian Bear" Ivan Koloff, Matthew Anoa'i (WWE's Rosey), FMW's Mr. Pogo, with lucha losing Gran Apache, Brazo/Alvarado family patriarch Brazo de Oro, Ruben Pato Soria, Chavo Guerrero, Sr., Fishman, AAA's Joaquin Roldan, and longtime WWA/Tijuana promoter Benjamin Mora.

We also lost Yukihiro Sakada (better known as Hart Dungeon trainer Tokyo Joe Daigo), Hart Family brother Smith Hart, WCW ring announcer Rhubarb Jones, German promoter/wrestler Otto Wanz, WWF/E's Timothy Well and Rex King, Chris Bryan (Absolute Intense Wrestling's co-promoter Chander Biggins), Rotten Ron Starr, Dennis Stamp (best known among many for his appearance in Beyond The Mat and the Stallone movie Paradise Alley), WCW copntroller/promoter Chip Burnham, Canadian independent wrestler Eric Denis, Tugboat Taylor, AWA tag team champion, Pretty Boy Doug Somers, Bruiser Bob Sweetan, Bruiser Bedlam, Nicole Bass, Wayne Van Dyke (Dick Delicious), Diane Von Hoffman (Moondog Fifi), Larry Sharpe, Jim Crockett Promotions' Elliott Murnick, Outlaw Ron Bass, Brandon Kaplan (Spyral BKNY), Pro Wrestling Magic co-founder Chad Adams, Burrhead Jones, Aaron "Nigerian Nightmare" Gainey and Stan "Krusher" Kowalski.

I also wanted to remind readers one final time about how independent wrestling promotion throughout the United States and Canada have been busy helping their communities with Toys for Tots collections, canned/non-perishable food collections, warm coat/clothing collections, and other charitable efforts this Holiday season. They did it without Vince McMahon's $2.5 billion, having to hustle sponsors from local pizza shops, bars, tattoo parlors, and more. More than one of those promoters (or others who head up these efforts) need assistance themselves from time to time. But they still put in all the work that promoting an independent wrestling show takes, and went well out of their way to give to others in their own communities in 2017.
These are very real numbers on how much they've helped their communities as of December 29 (2 haven't yet reported their numbers yet).

77 shows scheduled/75 reporting

* $47,963 cash donations/in-kind services
* 14,200 meals donated (estimated through donations of meals, canned and non-perishable foods)
* 7,275 toys collected through Toys for Tots and similar toy drive efforts.
* 47 blankets
* Numerous scarves and hats, winter socks and boots for the homeless
* 30 Christmas "Stockings of Love" stockings for the people of the Houston and Puerto Rico regions which included Walmart gift cards and various toiletries.


Here's how the individual promotions have helped their communities this year:

An incredible part of that was CZW fan Bob Manning, who drove up from near Glen Burnie, MD...northeast snowstorm be damned.

If you're an independent wrestling fan, and your favorite promotion isn't named...ask them if they plan to do something next year. If not, ask them why not.

Until next time....

CAGE OF DEATH: Cage of Death 19 12/8 Sewell, NJ results

Combat Zone Wrestling returned to Rastelli's Kids Complex last night for its year-end annual blow-out show Cage of Death event, with title changes, psychoviolence in the main event and beyond, an NWA World Heavyweight Title change, a Memphis legend making an appearance, and a shocking return/potential invasion angle.

First, CZW set another record for its 12th annual Toys for Tots collection....an estimated 600 toys, slightly more than last year. An incredible part of that was CZW fan Bob Manning, who drove up from near Glen Burnie, MD...snowstorm be damned. Why so remarkable? He did it with $1,000 OF TOYS. A literal truckful of toys which he bought through a $865 GoFundMe. So many toys that Kathie Fitzpatrick had to make three trips and employ others to help transport and store the toys, which will go to places such as Ronald McDonald House/Cooper Hospital, Children's Hospital of Philadelphia, as well as other agencies and groups.

A heroic effort on her part, on Bob Manning's part, and on the part of the everyday fans and wrestlers of CZW, many who often don't have enough for themselves and their own.

So thank you on Kathie Fitzpatrick's behalf...and the kids who'll get to be a little more innocent for one more year because of CZW's fans.

Now to the matches:

* Dan O’Hare and Shlak won the Ultimate Opportunity Coin Challenge Cage of Death pre-show match and the Coin, pinning simultaneously AAW Pro Wrestling's Kody Rice, Dan Berry,  from Canada's Alpha 1 Wrestling: Shane Sabre, and from Dojo Wars, G-Raver and Blackwater.

* Matt Tremont defeated Jimmy Lloyd by pinfall, with all sorts of plunder including thumbtacks, a bed of nails, a chair, and a soda can board

* Mr. (Conor) Claxton defeated Alex Colon by pinfall, with a guest appearance at the end by Danny Havoc

* David Starr defeated "All Ego" Ethan Page via pinfall after a shining wizard in easily the best pure wrestling match on the show. Starr did his best attempts to dive 20 rows deep I do wish CZW had done a little betetr job at explaining page's extensive Ontario indy background to help get him over.

* The Rep defeated CZW Tag Team champions Dezmond Xavier/Zach Wentz, OVE (Jake/Dave Crist, aka OI4K) and Alex Reynolds/Matt Palmer to become the new champion.

* Nick Aldis defeated NWA Champion Tim Storm to win the NWA World Heavyweight title by pinfall, working Storm's "injured" ribs. Pre-match, Memphis legend Austin Idol came out (sadly much of the crowd had zero clue who he was), telling the CZW referee to get out and brought out former Impact referee Brian Hebner to call the match

* Jimmy Jacobs doing his Zombie Princess character, looking like a cross between Boy George and Iggy Pop, defeated Jimmy Havoc by pinfall in an all-arena brawl. Fun was had including Jacobs spiking Havoc in the head, Havoc responded by stapling Jacobs in HIS head, chair throwing and all sorts of bloody fun.

* Greg Excellent and Crissy Rivera defeated Ace Romero when Excellent pinned Romero . Romero, who is the size of a large refrigerator...did an incredible dive early on. Chrissy Rivera continued her annual tradition of a sick bump, getting plowed through a table by Romero. Next of kin did not need to be called, though.

* MJF (with Penelope Ford) defeated CZW Wired TV Champ Joey Janela by rollup pinfall to become the new champion, including brawling throughout on to the floor until a dive off of the balcony of the venue. Post-match, Ford turned on MJF, again going back with Joey Janela.

* In the Cage of Death, CZW champion Rickey Shane Page retained his title, defeating Shane Strickland and Joe Gacy in a match that at some moments looked like something out of a snuff film; including the usual Cage of Death, augmented with multiple panes of glass, a normal scaffold, another scaffold of glass, a contraption of chairs draping down from the regular scaffold, barned wire tables, a drill (yes, a drill) being used like a weedwhacker, and a scene right out where the three took turns hitting each other in the head with light tubes ala the Three Stooges on crystal meth. Other highlight included Rickey Shane Page chokeslamming Joe Gacy through a flaming pane of glass, Page and Shane Strickland going through a glass scaffold.

Then the post-match fun. Game Changer Wrestling's (CZW not-that-friendly competitor) Brett Lauderdale and GCW (and former CZW legend) went through the front door. Gage hit the Cage, with Matt Tremont and seveal others from the back. Gage demanded Page, Gacy and Stricklan get out, and told the crowd "that this wasn’t an angle, and was a straight shoot" (usually: angle alert).

NOTES: DJ Hyde told staff before the show and the crowd later that this was the promotion's last show at Rastelli's. While the venue management was somewhat cooperative, the venue is heavy on cheerleading activities and a group of cheerleader mothers were said by multiple people to be....to put it politely... obsessive beyond anything remotely resembling reason...that CZW would somehow threaten their girls....before the first show even took place. One wonders if the cheerleader mothers have done anything like collected well over a thousand toys for children over a 12 year period, unlike this supposed "menace". CZW will thus, sensibly, move to a new venue in February, supposedly a bit closer for some of the Flyers Skate Zone location.

CZW has been selling the show ending angle bigtime as a shoot online....the right way to go presuming this is the slow build to something. Might be interesting to see what happens at Game Changer Wrestling's show in Howell, NJ on December 16.

CZW's Best of the Best will return to their new venue in South Jersey, and that Will Ospreay will work the Wrestlemania weekend show in New Orleans.

United Wrestling Coalition returns to Wrightstown, NJ on December 2 for the annual Toys for Tots show




It’s that time of year again! The United Wrestling Coalition 
is hosting their annual UWC Toys For Tots Pro Wrestling Toy Drive on Saturday, December 2, 2017. The event will take place at Kelly's Banquet Hall in Wrightstown, New Jersey. Doors open at 6:30 and bell time is slated for 7:00 p.m. Admission is FREE when you donate a new, unwrapped toy (with a suggested minimum value of $10) or a $10 Walmart gift card for Houston flood victims at the door. Toys collected are distributed by members of the US Marine Corps Reserves and stay within Burlington County. 

In addition, we are encouraging fans to also bring a small stocking stuffed with a few small items and a card of wishes for those Houston children impacted by Hurricane Harvey. We call this effort Stockings of Love! (Suggested stocking fillers would include gift cards, Matchbox cars, hair accessories, dollar store items, etc.) 

Everyone making a donation at the door will receive FREE door prize tickets for their chance to win one of over 50 door prizes. Additional door prize tickets will be available for purchase. 

Special ringside seating is being reserved for those pledging (in advance of the 12/2 show) to donate a new bicycle. One bicycle donation will reward you up to five reserved seats. To make your pledge to donate a bike, call or text 609-792-9328. 

In the main event, reigning UWC Heavyweight Champion T.G.I. Fredo Majors of The Fraternity will defend his title against one half of the UWC Tag Team Champions, "American Muscle" Nate Mustang of The Sons Of Liberty! After stealing The Wrightstown Rumble from Mustang and going on to win the Heavyweight Title in June, Fredo Majors defeated Nate Mustang via disqualification in October when Referee George Pinaha mistakenly believed Mustang intentionally clobbered him. At our November event, Majors and The Fraternity took it upon themselves to attack Mustang and his partner while they were defending the Tag Team Championship. Nate Mustang demanded a championship rematch with Fredo Majors on December 2 at the Toys For Tots Toy Drive, and Fredo agreed, on one condition: it would be a Loser Leaves Town Match! The winner of the bout gets the belt and gets to stay. The loser gets the next bus out of town. This will be your last chance to see either Fredo Majors or Nate Mustang for a very long time. 

The "Thriller" Andd Bivians and Craig Francis have been going at each other for nearly a year. Their most recent encounter ended in a double countout. That won't happen on December 2 at Kelly's Banquet Hall when Andd Bivians and Craig Francis battle it out in a Lumberjack Match! Wrestlers will surround the ring, and their job is to prevent the action from spilling out onto the floor. We don't know who will emerge victorious, but we do know this match will not end in a countout! 

In October, Lance Scaper won the right to challenge for either the United States or Tag Team Championship. He chose to go after the tag team belts Kleetus as his partner. They will have their shot at reigning champions The Sons Of Liberty at Toys For Tots in Wrightstown. But Scaper & Kleetus aren't the only ones getting a shot at gold (which will be defended by Spectrum & The “Lost Boy” Jay Kirby.) Since their championship bout with The Sons Of Liberty was interrupted by The Fraternity in November, Doom Crew (Manabo & Oliver Bailey, along with that weaselly little Joe Wolf) has demanded a rematch. Additionally, Spectrum & Kirby want nothing more than to get their hands on Fraternity members Ace Matthews & “Brilliant” Bobby Banks. All four team will compete in a Fatal Four-Way Tag Team Attraction! One member of two teams start. Anyone could be tagged in by anyone else and can be subject to immediate disqualification for failure to accept a tag. The first team to achieve a pinfall or submission wins! 

Also at the Toys For Tots Pro Wrestling Toy Drive on 
December 2 in Wrightstown you'll see “The One” Geoffrey Bravo, The Cremator, Iron Bull Argus, Textbook Philly Madison, Bobby Piper, The "Jersey Shore Mad Man" Slayer, manager Craig Z-List, Savannah, The Honorable President and Former Heavyweight Champion Joe Rules, and many more of our 
UWC favorites to be announced! PLUS a special appearance by Santa Claus! 

United Wrestling Coalition has earned its reputation for running family-oriented pro wrestling events. The events are designed to offer the very best entertainment while enhancing the community and helping to raise awareness and capital for various worthy causes. 

This year's event is sponsored by Lucas Chrysler Jeep Dodge of Mount Holly as well as Kate & Al's Pizza of Columbus Farmers Market. 

Once dubbed the largest single toy drive effort in Burlington County, UWC has been hosting these events for nearly 20 years. In that time, through the generous donations of loyal fans, local businesses, as well as the wrestlers themselves, UWC has collected well over 18,000 toys for the US Marine Corps Toys For Tots campaign. 

Kelly's Bar and Banquet Hall is making this venue available for this wonderful event. Please stop by and check out their banquet facilities. 

Remember, UWC returns with the annual Toys For Tots Pro Wrestling Toy Drive at Kelly's Banquet Hall, 14 Railroad Avenue, Wrightstown, NJ 08562, Saturday, November 11, 2017. Doors open at 6:30 p.m., bell time is 7:00 p.m., and tickets are only $10. Card subject to change. The show typically runs two hours, and door prizes will be awarded at the conclusion of the show.
