NWA/IZW RESULTS FROM 6/02/09 @ THE SETS in Tempe, AZ

Announcer Johnny Roxx & NWA Representative Greg DeMarco came out to start the TV tapings, and were joined by Johnny Manson. Manson mocked DeMarco, then grabbed the mic and declared that he loves IZW, and stated that the NWA “sucks.” This brought out Derick Neikirk and GQ Gallo,who bullied Manson around. Neikirk then invited any member of the IZW roster to come out and join their cause, which brought out Tyson Tyler! Manson’s nemesis seemed like a perfect fit to join the NWA enforcers, except Tyler showed his intentions to stick with IZW, coming to the rescue of Manson! Neikirk informed Tyler that he “signed his death wish,” and challenged Manson & Tyler to a tag team match. DeMarco immediately made the match official, forcing Johnny Roxx to announce it as a main event to the fans.

Match #1 – Lucha Star Reigns pinned Dom “The Bomb” Vitalli following Sliced Burrito #2.

Match #2 – “The Limited Edition” Tommy Drake pinned Frenchy Rivera after hitting a Straightjacket Neckbreaker.

Match #3 – “El Mariachi” Sergio Vega defeated “Miracle” Mike James after a cheap chop block to the knee and a quick roll-up in the third match in their Best of 5 Series, which Vega leads 2-1.

Match #4 – NWA Enforcers, the "Elite Extremists" Derick Neikirk & GQ Gallo defeated Johnny Manson & Tyson Tyler (dubbed “The BFF Express”) when
Neikirk pinned Tyler following “Tradition Enforced” (a double team Slingshot into a Side Russian Legsweep).

Following intermission, “The Feature Presentation” Jay Garland addressed the IZW fans, informing them that he had been temporarily blinded by the fireball thrown at him by new Unified champion Dean Radford two weeks ago. Garland stated that he’s currently lost 80% vision in his right eye, and 43% in his left. Dean Radford appeared in the ring, and was less than remorseful when he attacked Garland . Several wrestlers made their way out, including a rare in-ring appearance by the retired “Fearless” Jack Bull. Jose Guzman, a young wrestler who’s been training with Garland and accompanied him to the ring, was left alone with Radford, leading to an impromptu match between the two.

Match #5 – NWA-Arizona Heavyweight & Impact Zone Wrestling Champion “The East Coast Killer” Dean Radford pinned Jose Guzman following a big boot in under 3 minutes in a non-title match.

Match #6 – “The King of Phoenix” Payed Daily defeated “Lord” Lars Fleischmann. Fleischmann had originally pinned Daily with a roll-up out of the corner, but NWA Representative Greg DeMarco restarted the match after claiming that Fleischmann allegedly held the ropes during the pinfall (despite the fact that everyone in the arena saw that Fleischmann used the rope for balance, releasing his grasp prior to Ryan Castelucci’s three count). Fleischmann argued with DeMarco when the match was restarted, and Daily pinned Fleischmann with a school-boy roll-up (and a handful of tights).

Match #7 – Erica D’Erico pinned “Sweet” Liz Sassi to become the first ever NWA-Arizona Women’s Champion by reversing a victory roll into a roll-up of her own, with an assist from the top rope.

Prior to the second half main event, Ring Announcer Johnny Roxx informed the fans that due to the legally binding “divorce agreement” signed by both members of The 602 Wrecking Crew, Jacob Hertzberg was officially the sole holder of the NWA-Arizona Tag Team Titles.

Match #8 – IZW Impulse Champion “The Irish Hand Grenade” Marty Murphy & “El Cholo” Mike G defeated “The Great” Ryan Lynch & NWA-Arizona Tag Team Champions Jacob “The Riot” Herzberg when Murphy pinned Lynch with the TK602. Herzberg was in position to break-up the final pinfall, but elected to stare down his former partner during the pin.

IZW/NWA-Arizona returns to The Sets in Tempe on Tuesday, June 16. Don’t miss a minute of the action as we see the fallout from this week’s events, including an appearance by the newly crowned NWA-Arizona Women’s Champion Erica D’Erico!

IZW/NWA-Arizona makes its return to Fiddlestick’s on Friday, June 26 at 7:30 PM on Elliot Road in Tempe . Your admission ticket includes unlimited use of the park after 4:00 PM.

FSW RESULTS/DEBUT OF THE ELITE EXTREMISTS

FSW ran the first local wrestling show in Las Vegas in more than 10 years. More than 200 people braved the scorching heat inside the Rancho Swap Meet, to see an exciting day of professional wrestling. The show started off with a student showcase featuring VCW Wrestling School students, Tommy Danja, Kid Showtime, and Fenix Alexander. The crowd was rockin at the kids did not disappoint. An excellent match that far exceeded everyone's expectations. Kid Showtime came out victorious in his first ever professional wrestling match. We had an 8 man tournament to crown our first champion. Due to a no-show, local wrestler The Trucker Nick Tucker was placed in the tourney against Malachi Jackson. The youngster held his own, but fell victim to the Young Bucks, lil brother. Former ECW Superstar Derrick Neikirk and his band of Extreme Elitists proved to much for Tyson Tyler. Tyler, an excellent wrestler had the crowd behind him, and put on a great effort. There is no doubt, we will be seeing more of Tyson Tyler in FSW. Next up was the Royal Invitational with a spot in FSW on the line. 13 men entered, when it got down to the final 6 things got interestling. Splat Pack member Tank, well over 450 lbs, who had single handedly eliminated 5 of the first 7 wrestlers and had chokeslammed the Junk Bond Trader right out of the ring, got gang rushed by 4 of the boys and the crowd popped huge after his elimination. The match got down to local favorite Legacy and Vegas' Scotty Eyce. After some back and forth action, Legacy prevailed an earned a roster spot in FSW. Lucha match was next between Cyanide/Vintage Dragon against Capitan Calico/El Juenta. After Cyanide and partner prevailed, Mean Martin and Tank of the Splat Pack bumrushed the ring and tried to destroy the Luchas, until Capitan Calico came back wielding a chair to scare off the Splat Pack. Border Patrol Mike Modest advanced and Ring of Honor's Kenny King prevailed in a great match with Extreme Elitists GQ Gallo, but after the match was destroyed by Gallo and Neikirk. "ELITE EXTREMISTS" In the semi-main event of the evening the Young Bucks showed why they are considered one of the best tag teams in the world. Wrestling their arch rivals the Cutlers, the match heated up and the Vegas crowd was in a frenzy. The Young Bucks came out victorious this time, rumor has it a rematch has been signed for July 12th and the Cutlers vow revenge. In the main event, as it looked like Derrick Neikirk was about to win the belt, injured Vegas superstar Funny Bone, who earlier was threatened by Neikirk and crew, came back on the ring apron, spit water in Neikirk's face, which allowed Kenny King to put away Neikirk and become the first ever FSW Heavyweight Champion.

Monday, April 20, 2009 WCWC Double shot weekend

WCWC's DoubleShot Weekend was arguably the most shocking, controversial and, most of all, memorable 48 hours in the history of the promotion! Fans in Springfield and Independence were treated to some of the finest wrestling action in all of Oregon, as well as some of the biggest surprises the WC has ever seen! Springfield Results, 4/18/09 #1 ... WCWC Lightning Division Championship Match: Mike Santiago (Champion) vs. G-Shock went to a time limit draw. *The Franchise Player was signed to replace top contender "Meanstreak" Mike Dempsey, who was still recovering from his participation in the grueling "Wrestling With Hunger" event in British Columbia. After a taxing match, fans were disappointed when the 10 minute time limit expired. A frustrated G-Shock demanded a rematch for the next night in Independence, which Santiago eagerly accepted. #2 ... Draven Vargas defeated Kellen "The Hellion" Raeth *Private Parker was previously scheduled to take on "The Hellion," but travel issues prevented the Delta Force member from leaving South Carolina for the event, prompting Vargas to take his place "in the name of America." It looks like "Patriot Power" helped out in Vargas' effort against the man from Washington State; Vargas dropped Raeth with the THC for the victory! #3 ... Kyle Matthews defeated Dr. Kliever by DQ *Kyle Matthews came all the way from Atlanta, Georgia to compete here in the WC, but he had a tall order ahead of him as he took on a man who was bigger than him by at least 7 inches and 50 pounds. The "Lean, Mean, Green Love Machine" was determined to prove that he would do anything to regain the WCWC Championship, but Matthews surprised the big man (as well as the fans) with his tenacity and his arsenal of high-flying moves. Frustrated with his inability to put his opponent away, Kliever gave Matthews a pair of blatant low blows right in front of the referee, forcing the disqualification. #4 ... Stoney McHogan defeated Jason Jackson *Back by popular demand, WC's resident chameleon donned the red-and-yellow one more time! "HippieMania" was definitely running wild in this match, as Stoney took out Jackson with his signature leg drop for the win! #5 ... Domestic Partnership defeated Draven Vargas & Kyle Sebastian *With one win already under his belt for the night, fan favorite Draven Vargas pulled double-duty in Springfield and partnered with Kyle Sebastian against arguably the most controversial tag team in the history of the WCWC. With manager Brian Zane in their corner, Bobby and Deryck continued to leaves the mouths of fans agape with their pre-match antics. Once the actual wrestling began, the unorthodox duo took it to their opponents. In a sudden turn of events, however, the team of Vargas and Sebastian made a dramatic comeback and had the Partnership on the ropes! Just as momentum was on their side, however, Zane asserted himself into the match and pulled Sebastian off of the apron! Incensed, the high-flyer ran after Zane to the backstage area, but left his partner high and dry in doing so. Bobby and Deryck took advantage of Vargas' sudden handicap and took him out for the win. #6 ... Dash Venture defeated Exile *Standing at nearly seven feet tall and weighing more than 300 pounds, The Man They Call Exile was considered an easy favorite to win this contest. But in an intense match, Venture scored a major upset against the big man! #7 ... WCWC Tag Team Championship Match: Bolo & Mike Santiago defeated Erik Baeden & "Gentleman" George Michael and G.Q. Gallo & Mike Modest (Champions) in a Three-Way Dance. *With Shoot 2 Kill member Dustin Snyder still MIA, Baeden selected George Michael as his replacement in this exciting three-way dance. In the end, the tandem of Bolo & Santiago scored an impressive victory, wresting the Tag Team Titles from Heavyweight Champion Gallo and his partner Modest! Moments after the night's scheduled main event ended, an impromptu one began! Just as G.Q. Gallo was recovering from his loss, "Gentleman" George nailed him with the Royal Flush and made a cover! In a shocking move, Commissioner JT Allen entered the ring and counted the 3! #8 ... WCWC Championship "Match": "Gentleman" George Michael defeated G.Q. Gallo (Champion) With the crowd looking on in disbelief, the new Champion explained that he was merely taking Gallo up on his offer to defend the title "any place, any time," and just so happened to have the Commissioner in his back pocket all along! After recovering from his back-to-back losses, Gallo declared that he and Modest would hunt down Michael and Allen, and promised to take them both out very soon! Independence Results, 4.19.09 #1 ... Bolo won the Double Threat Rumble to become the new #1 Contender for the WCWC Heavyweight Championship. *In a previously-recorded telephone message, newly-crowned champion "Gentleman" George explained he wouldn't appear at Central High School because he "doesn't do charity shows." That didn't stop the rest of the WCWC roster to try and stake a claim at his title. Before the Double Threat Rumble began, co-owner Jeff Manning assigned Mike Modest to be a special guest referee for the match! Manning's move led to some interesting situations, as Modest physically involved himself on more than one occasion, attacking Erik Baeden and causing him to get eliminated! In the end, Bolo tossed Bobby of Domestic Partnership out of the ring to become the new #1 Contender to George's Title! #2 ... Dr. Kliever defeated Draven Vargas *Kliever made it clear the night before in Springfield that he wanted "his" WCWC Championship back by roughing up Kyle Matthews in one-on-one action, and on this night, he did the same thing to Draven Vargas. The man from Detroit, Oregon simply couldn't keep up with the big man and had his shoulders pinned to the mat for the three-count. #3 ... Kellen "The Hellion" Raeth & Jason Jackson defeated Delta Force With Raeth and Jackson still on their "probationary period" to become the newest members of Z-Man Enterprises, they did everything they could in this match to impress Brian Zane, who looked on from ringside. The soldiers put forth a valiant effort, but their attempt to claim a victory was quashed when Zane got up on the apron to distract referee Scott Stevens. Jackson and Raeth knocked Lt. Freedom off the top rope and hit him with a double-team move to seal their victory and earn more points with the "Z-Man." #4 ... Domestic Partnership vs. Kyle Sebastian & Kyle Matthews was declared a No Contest. *Kyle Matthews spent most of his time in this match being picked apart by Bobby and Deryck, unable to reach Sebastian and make a much-needed tag. But just when things looked their bleakest, the young man from Georgia was able to ward off the Partnership and finally tag in his partner...then THAT'S when things looked their bleakest. In a shocking move, Sebastian turned around and leveled his own partner with a superkick! As the fans were trying to comprehend what had just happened, Sebastian revealed that he became the newest member of Domestic Partnership! Bobby, Deryck, Kyle and ringleader Brian Zane were showered with boos and a variety of derogatory comments as they celebrated all the way back to the locker room. #5 ... WCWC Lightning Division Championship Match: G-Shock defeated Mike Santiago (Champion) *In a rematch from the night before, G-Shock vowed that he would finish the job he started in Springfield as he took on double-champion Mike Santiago. It was an exciting, high-flying affair that kept the crowd on the edge of their seats, but in the end, G-Shock stole the victory from Santiago, and claimed the Lightning Division Title for the very first time! #6 ... G.Q. Gallo defeated Dash Venture *Gallo had a lot to prove in this match as he tried to bounce back from losing both the Heavyweight and the Tag Team gold within mere minutes of each other the night before; meanwhile, Venture also felt he needed to keep the momentum he had built up from Saturday's upset victory against Exile going with a win over his opponent in Independence. With both having a lot of personal pride riding on this match, it had the potential of being a long night with neither man wanting to relent. In the end, however, Gallo capitalized on the smallest of mistakes made by Venture, and regained some confidence with a much-needed win over the man from Washington! #7 ... Erik Baeden defeated Mike Modest *This contest was considered a rematch from their encounter back in March; many who were in attendance that night say it was one of the better technical contests they had seen in the Pacific Northwest in quite some time. But those who were looking for a vast array of holds and counter-moves may have been disappointed, as this rivalry has practically reached a boiling point. Baeden, quick to remember Modest's costly interference in the Double Threat Rumble earlier in the evening, was out to hurt his opponent on this night. But Modest hung in there against the former Tag Team Champion, matching one blow with another. As Modest had his opponent in his sights for one last devastating move, Commissioner (and ring announcer for the evening) JT Allen inserted himself into the match, grabbing Modest's leg! This distraction was just enough for Baeden to gather his bearings and hit his opponent with a ruthless German Suplex, which was enough to keep Modest down for the three! Just as Baeden and Allen celebrated their teamwork in the ring, G.Q. Gallo stormed into the ring and brought the pain! The now-former Tag Team Champions went to work on their two adversaries in the ring and made it known that they wanted revenge! Just how soon will they get it? And what role will Bolo, the new #1 Contender, play as "Gentleman" George Michael and JT Allen gather their troops? Find out at our next show at the Regional Sports Center in Springfield, Saturday May 16!

NEIKIRK VS. GALLO UNIFIED CHAMPIONSHIP MATCH

On December 16, 2008, at The Sets in Tempe, Arizona, GQ Gallo decided it was time to issue an open challenge. Fresh off of a victory against “The Irish Hand Grenade” Marty Murphy, Gallo had taken the microphone and was demanding competition. He had defeated every challenger the IZW Board of Directors put in front of him. His one shot against The Navajo Warrior has come and gone, and no rematch is being granted. But Gallo wants competition--he craves competition. Enter Derrick Neikirk.



A lot has changed since Derrick Neikirk has seen active competition in IZW. The name on the marquee is now NWA-IZW. The IZW Heavyweight Title has been unified with the NWA-Arizona Championship, and both belts are held by a familiar face in GQ Gallo. Neikirk and Gallo once joined Mike Knox and Frankie Kazarian as The Heat Squad. Their battles teaming with each other, and against each other, have been legendary. It was only a matter of time before their paths crossed again.



Derrick Neikirk himself knows how it feels to win the IZW Heavyweight Title. He won the belt from Mike Knox on June 6, 2004. And almost immediately had it stripped from his grasp. Since that date, Neikirk has seen success in IZW, Deep South Wrestling, Florida Championship Wrestling, and in ECW. Now, Neikirk is back in IZW, and wants another chance to hold the title he feels was wrongly taken away from him.



Neikirk kept his response short and sweet. Gallo wants competition, and Neikirk is all the competition Gallo needs. With one simple answer, Neikirk catapulted himself to the top of the ladder, garnering a shot at the Unified Championships on December 30 (his in ring return to at The Sets). Now, with less than 14 days to prepare--and the winter holidays cutting into more training time--two of the fiercest wrestlers in Arizona wrestling history will meet face to face, with the biggest prize in the West on the line. Can Gallo defeat Neikirk, and cement his position as one of the most dominant champions in IZW history? Or can Neikirk regain the IZW Championship, which has been so elusive in his career, and grab the NWA-Arizona Championship at the same time, adding this most prestigious pair of championships to his already impressive resume?



Rest assured, Derrick Neikirk vs. GQ Gallo will deliver non-stop action from start to finish. And when the dust settles, we will find out who the better man is.

IMPACT ZONE WRESTLING RESULTS FOR 12/2/08
If you missed this past NWA Impact Zone Wrestling event, then you missed out on joining the IZW Loyalists inside the ring for the Pirate Party dance-off! The new NWA-IZW Tag Team champions Skull & Bones know how to throw a party, and they know how to host a dance-off as "Tequila" echoed through The Sets as all your favorite IZW wrestlers, fans, and referees danced in and around the ring. But the evening was not just about fun and dancing.

The opening contest saw "Feature Presentation" Jay Garland take on Nick The Fury DeMichael in a grudge match for having cost him the IZW Impulse title. However, DeMichael was no sitting duck, taking the fight to Garland. The see-saw match concluded after an exchange in which Garland hoisted The Fury for the Special Feature, but DeMichael shifted his weight and hooked Garland's arms for the Unprettier. But Garland broke free and hoisted him up again and hit an amazing Special Feature for the win!

Up next, the demented Johnny Manson had a large task on his hands as he faced off with Tyson Tyler of the Tyler Empire. Not surprisingly, the power house brutalized IZW's resident mental patient, but Manson withstood the beating and mounted a comeback after catching Tyson off guard with a jawbreaker. But being caught off guard would become Manson's own downfall. As Manson came off the ropes, Tyson caught him with an underhook shoulder slam for the three-count.

For the past several events, the luchadores have held their own against the Tyler Empire. This time they stepped into the ring with the eminence grise "XXX" Lawrence Tyler and "King of Phoenix" Payed Daily. Payed took a cheapshot at Mike to prevent a tag, but Mike G got even with an illegal kneelift as Payed rebounded off the ropes. Lucha & Mike doubled up on Payed, but eventually he tagged in LT who moved down both opponents. The Tyler Empire kept the ring cut in half to work on Mike's leg, but eventually, Mike tagged his fresh partner. Lucha almost finished off LT himself, but Payed stopped Hasta La Vista in mid-execution, allowing LT to pin him moments later.

IZW Impulse champion The Great Ryan Lynch with Nick The Fury DeMichael at his side defended against two-time former-tag champion Jacob The Riot Herzberg. Neither man has been above bending the rules to take an advantage, and their like-mindedness was evident as they were fighting outside the ring, telling the referee to shut up simultaneously. Nick DeMichael stopped the challenger's momentum by tripping him and pulling him under the ropes to motorboat him. Lynch's attempted the Clyncher, but Herzberg reversed it into a T-Bone Suplex, followed by a rolling clothesline. Herzberg went for a splash in the corner, but Lynch side-stepped him and hit the Clyncher for the victory.

After the match, it was the Pirate Party! After Miracle Mike James and Dread Pirate Bernie entertained the crowd, "The Voice of Impulse" Greg DeMarco attempted to interview the new champions, but Erica D'Erico interrupted to tell them how proud she was of their victory, but she had to attend to her own business. As she left the ringside area, she crossed paths with the Tyler Empire as they headed to the ring collectively. After a verbal altercation between Lawrence Tyler and MMJ, Skull & Bones accepted the Empire's challenge for their first title defense at the December 16th show at The Sets.

Following intermission, "Everybody's Favorite Brazilian" Antonio Mestre took on Hawaiian Lion. These two men have crossed paths multiple times in Impact Zone Wrestling, starting with Mestre's IZW debut, and every match has been equally fierce and competitive, and this match was no exception. During the contest, Beaver Las Vagas led Dean Radford to ringside through the crowd, just as Lion delivered a stiff Enziguiri kick in the corner. But Beaver and Dean prevented Lion from following up, so when Lion's attention turned back to his opponent, he walked right into a Pele kick and Mestre emerged victorious.

Finally, it was time for the main event of the evening in which IZW Heavyweight champion and NWA Arizona champion "The Institution" G. Q. Gallo met Dean Radford with Beaver Las Vagas in his corner. The two men went at it like a fight between attack dogs, but as Gallo was about to emerge with the distinct advantage, things went awry on the Football Kick. Radford rolled out of the way, and Gallo spilled to the outside through the steel barriers.

Dean Radford got him back inside, but he was unable to put away the champion as the match continued. At one point, Gallo had an opportunity to hit the Spear, but Beaver Las Vagas tripped him from the outside. The East Coast Killa capitalized, lifting Gallo in a fireman's carry, but the referee took a foot upside the head inadvertently. Hawaiian Lion immediately recognized the opportunity, coming back inside with a Shining Wizard for revenge. Then, G. Q. Gallo got back up first and watched as the challenger staggered back to his feet, at which point he nailed Radford with a Spear to retain the titles.

Unfortunately, Navajo Warrior was nowhere to be found the whole night, and he has not responded to the IZW Board of Directors. Whether it is a cunning plan to lure Gallo into a false sense of security, or if it is proof that Navajo knows in fact he cannot beat Gallo is a subject to debate. Conversely, there are no mixed signals between Lion and Radford as they are burning the wicks at both ends. Another encounter between the two is only a matter of time.

EXTRACT FROM - THE CORINO CHRONICLES XI

10:49am, November 13 (Seat 5H on US Airways to San Juan)

The latest Japan tour was an interesting one to say the least. It started out with the Pro Wres Expo events that were produced by Freebird International (FBI Japan) at Sumo Hall in Tokyo. Unfortunately, these shows were doomed from the start. The economy is getting worse and worse and pro-wrestling in Japan has been on a decline since 2004. Its not that pro-wrestling is bad or the fans are turned off, there are just way too many companies and it thins out the attendance.......

I was thrilled that I could book Ricky Landell, Ricky Reyes, Alex Anthony, and referee Mike Kehner from 3KWrestling. Landell was chosen by Mr. Ono after he saw him wrestle Kirby Mack at the Cauliflower Alley Club in June. Reyes became “Cuban Assassin #3” representing Cuba and Alex Anthony became “Alex Marley” representing Jamaica. Expo also brought Bambi Killer from Austria (who was in the best shape I ever saw him), Erik Isiken from Norway, Hartley Jackson from Australia, Paul Tracey from Ireland, Durango and Naruto from Mexico, some hump named Geronimo from wherever the piss he claimed to be from (more on this shithead later), a French guy named Henni who apparently has only been training for two months, and the worst of the worst Himalayan Tiger from Nepal.

Chono and First On Stage picked me to be the agent of the matches and to give instructions and finishes. I never thought that actually taking bumps and getting hurt would be easier then dealing with some of these people. I say some but really it was only four I had to shake my head at. And you have to keep in consideration that the French kid only has two months of training. But that is LA Dojo’s fault for bringing him over. It’s a shame because of how green the French guy was, Paul Tracey didn’t get a chance to show what he could do. Will that hurt him for future consideration for Japan tours? I hope not, but wouldn’t be surprised if it does.

The Himalayan Tiger was just awful. Maybe it’s because he doesn’t get to wrestle much but even giving him instructions was like trying to give instructions to a four year old with ADD. He was the laughing stock of the shows and I felt bad for him the first few days until I saw that he was only out for himself and not the show. Here is Chono, who has drawn more money then all of us combined, telling us to give it our best even though the house would be really small. But this guy just worried about himself and made a total ass of himself in the ring. Let’s hope these shows are not out on DVD.

Unfortunately one of the guys that were a bust was one of my 3KWrestlng guys. I will not mention his name but it’s just a shame what happened. It goes to show how far attitude can take you and how once you believe you are better then everyone it can blow up in your face. I helped this guy for years and at the end of the tour not only did he make me look bad but the ZERO1 office made me cancel him off the January tour where he was scheduled to wrestle in a major program. It’s been almost three weeks and I am still pissed off and heartbroken. Just a awful effort from a guy that I thought was better then that. Over the last seven years I have tried to help a bunch of guys and most of them let me down but I never thought this guy would do it. It’s a cruel business this pro-wrestling industry where friendships are ruined due to politics or money but this friendship is now ruined because of a lack of respect. Later I will explain to everyone that reads this how to get booked in Japan and/or Puerto Rico through me.

The last guy was a douche named Geronimo. I actually liked this kid and thought that he was getting the short end of the stick until he thought he would be cool, put on his internet muscles and bury me on his My Space page for something that I didn’t do.

This kid was one of the stinking points in practice and the first Royal Rumble. Once Chono-san saw him in practice he changed the third show match from Geronimo being in the semi-main event to the first match. He also decided to take him out of the second Royal Rumble and put him in a singles match with Osamu Namiguchi. Namiguchi is now a six-year vet but I think this kid thought he should have won which was not going to happen. He ends up having an OK seven minute match with Nami but it was due to Nami being able to make him look good. It was after that match and another awful performance by Himalayan Tiger that Chono took them both off the third show. Only the work of Kikutaro got Tiger back on the third show and I even asked both Kiku and Chono if we should put the Indian kid back on and I was told no. So what does this jackoff do? He writes a My Space blog burying me for taking him off the show! Is that what they taught him at the LADojo? I think not. Maybe next time you think about why you get taken off a show or passed up for a Japan tour maybe you should look in the mirror or watch a DVD of yourself and blame the person that really took you off the show…YOU. I hope you are happy now asshole that you got to speak your mind about something you had no idea about. And to think that Navaho Warrior and GQ Gallo didn’t get that spot when they would have been a million times better then you.

If wrestlers want to know why they are not in WWE, TNA, or a main spot in Japan they should take a look at the guys that are fixtures there. The TNA guys on the Expo shows (Shelley, Sabin, Daniels, & Young) ran circles around the gaijin talent except for Ricky Reyes. So next time you want to know why TNA is not beating down your door ask yourself if you look as good as these guys or can hang in the ring with them. Its almost 2009 and you need the cosmetic part as much as you need the in-ring work. I get 15-20 emails a day (yes, a day) of guys asking me to help them get booked in Japan and/or Puerto Rico and how many of them can take a look at themselves as say that they can handle it? Even while I am trying to get back into shape do I feel confident enough to email Jeff Jarrett or Vince Russo for a spot in TNA? Nope. Do these people think that Japan is going to throw tons of money to a guy that doesn’t have gear or work out or has an “I’m the best attitude”? Shit no. And it’s a shame that I have to say this because I was always the guy that would take VHS tapes and DVDs over to Japan no matter how bad the talent was. I figured it wasn’t my job to crush the dreams of guys but even if you do that you are a dick if you can’t get them in. For every Jake Manning, Heartbreak Express, Josh Daniels, or Kirby Mack that deserves a spot in Japan and/or Puerto Rico there is 100 other guys emailing about how good they are and how they should be there. It’s starting to make me freaking nuts. So from now on before emailing me or Charlie LeGrande or even ZERO1 think to yourself: Am I what the company could be looking for? And if not then you need to figure out what you need to do to get to the next level. Look like a star, get in the gym, get in the car and travel to as many shows as possible, and learn the styles. If you are unprepared in Puerto Rico and Japan (and TNA for that matter) you are going to get eaten alive and that is no one else’s fault but yours. Why didn’t I get a wrestling job with the WWE last year? Because I couldn’t adjust my style to theirs quick enough. Who’s fault is that? Vince McMahon? Johnny Ace? Nope, mine. I am lucky that the WWE was not my goal but if it was then I would be heartbroken that I let myself down.
