Pro Wrestling Guerrilla 2006: BoLA Night Two Up!

Awesome. Cape Fear for Tag Champs!

I miss Indy Nation, it could've been great
Anyway, been getting into PWG lately so I'll be reading.

Good luck.

---

--- There’s around 250 people here, another decent turnout for PWG. Talk of the night is of course the Joey Ryan vs. Colt Cabana match at Threemendous, there’s a lot of hype amongst everyone in this crowd about it. ---

- Joey Styles and Bryce Remsburg take their seats at the announce desk before Ronin makes his entrance for the opening match.

1) Frankie Kazarian Defeated Ricky Reyes with the Back to the Future. With Rocky Romero gone from PWG Ricky Reyes is now flying solo and looking to make an impact in the singles division, but boy did he pick a bad opponent to start that singles career against. The only two time PWG World Champion was in fine form as he took the fight straight to Reyes with his impressive technical and high risk wrestling style. There were numerous times when Kazarian managed to catch Reyes off guard with manoeuvres that nobody saw coming, including a springboard neckbreaker that was highly impressive and this just showed that not only is Kazarian one of the biggest threats on the PWG roster, but also that Reyes is going to have to up his game now that he doesn’t have anybody watching his back. A fast paced back and forth match led to plenty of action and near falls, but it was a Back to the Future courtesy of Kazarian that gave him the win in an impressive match featuring solid showings from both men.

2) Kid Kash Defeated Ronin with a Brain Buster. Kid Kash is really despised by pretty much everyone here, which is exactly what PWG are going for with his gimmick. The match was decent but nothing that we haven’t seen before from Kash as he takes apart Ronin in a back and forth match, screaming abuse at the fans and even the officials and getting in a heated argument with Bryce Remsburg at ringside which saw Ronin dive through the ropes straight into Kash in one of the highlights of the match. Ronin would capitalise and got in his best offence of the match but Kash soon recovered, nailing Ronin with a sick looking Brain Buster that gave Kash the win.

- Following the match Kid Kash started screaming about how PWG is a joke and that he’ll show everyone a real wrestler before nailing Ronin with a kick to the gut as Ronin was getting to his feet. Kash continued with his attack, kicking Ronin while he was stuck on the ground before Christopher Daniels made the save running off Kash and checking on Ronin. The crowd give a good pop for Daniels and it looks like a Kash vs. Daniels match isn’t too far away.

3) Davey Richards Defeated Excalibur with the D.R. Driver. This was a complete clash of styles as Excalibur’s comedy heel approach to the match clashed with Davey Richards straight man style. It turned out to be pretty entertaining as Excalibur would try a few of his comedy taunts to Richards and the fans only to be nailed by Davey Richards who was ravenous to get the victory after losing the PWG World Tag Team Championships to Alex Shelley & Chris Sabin. Everyone seemed pretty into this match, and Richard’s intense style has earned him a lot of new fans here in PWG as he systematically took apart Excalibur and didn’t let up at all, eventually ending the punishment with a top rope dropkick followed by the D.R. Driver.

- Super Dragon joins Davey Richards in the ring while Excalibur limps backstage, getting into an argument with the referee and trying to push him only to get pushed to the floor by the referee in a moment good for a quick laugh. Davey Richards talks about how he and Super Dragon recently lost the PWG World Tag Team titles to Alex Shelley & Chris Sabin, and that they wanted them back. Richards goes on to say that they had to make a good case to the PWG officials that they deserved the rematch and that everyone knows a good match is important, and that is why they made their case for the rematch with a landmark match. Richards announces that at Threemendous, PWG’s third anniversary show, it will be Davey Richards & Super Dragon challenging for the PWG World Tag Team titles in a Ladder Warfare match! This is a huge announcement and just adds to what promises to be an already massive show.

4) Jimmy Yang Defeated Mr. Excitement with the Yang Time. I was honestly surprised as how much offence Mr. Excitement got in here, I just wasn’t expecting to see much from him at all against an opponent of Yang’s calibre but alas, I was wrong. The match was very back and forth for the most part but towards the end Yang got in a lot more of the offence, hitting some brutal buzzsaw kicks that Mr. Excitement just had no answer for. One series of kicks in the turnbuckle left Mr. Excitement’s chest red and further kicks to the legs meant Mr. Excitement was struggling to walk by the end. This vicious assault meant Yang didn’t have any problem eventually putting Mr. Excitement away with the Yang Time for the pinfall.

5) Kings of Wrestling Defeated Cape Fear when Chris Hero used the Hangman's Elbow on Quicksilver. PWG’s tag team division is incredibly strong right now with teams like Arrogance, The Briscoe Brothers and the two teams competing here being just some of those chasing after the PWG World Tag Team Championships. Cape Fear were the clear fan favourites tonight but the Kings of Wrestling didn’t seem to care about that, their only interest right now being taking out Arrogance and then challenging for the tag titles. Both teams made good cases why they deserve to be here with plenty of back and forth tag action during the early parts of this match. While Cape Fear focused on quick high flying offence the Kings of Wrestling were simply interested in rough grapples and stiff striking and it worked, Cape Fear unable to match the ferocity that Chris Hero and Claudio Castagnoli brought to the ring tonight, with Quicksilver eventually succumbing to the Hangman’s Elbow.

- Up next Joey Styles, who is acting as both announcer and host for PWG, announces that in just over two months PWG will hold the annual Battle of Los Angeles 2006 tournament and that at that at that event whoever holds the PWG World Heavyweight Championship will be involved in the tournament, and every match they take place in will be for the title. So essentially the only way for either Joey Ryan or Colt Cabana to retain the title is to win the entire tournament. Good reaction from the fans, if the tournament wasn’t exciting enough as it is we now have a very good chance of seeing not just a new PWG World Champion crowned, but potentially more than one.

6) Colt Cabana Defeated Jack Evans with a Running Lariat. Colt Cabana has the biggest match of his PWG career in three weeks time when he puts his PWG contract on the line against Joey Ryan’s World title so there was a lot of pressure on him in this match especially against an opponent of Jack Evans calibre. Both men came into this determined to get the victory for their own reasons, Cabana to build up momentum and Jack Evans to prove that he deserves to be at the top of the PWG ladder. A fast paced and excellent match followed as both men pulled out all the stops to try and get the victory. Mid way through the match the PWG World Champion Joey Ryan attempted to get involved likely hoping to weaken Cabana ahead of their match at Threemendous. Ryan would have been successful if it wasn’t for the timely intervention of Kevin Steen. As Steen and Ryan brawled around the ring Cabana connected with the Running Lariat on Evans for the pinfall.

- Following the match Kevin Steen and Joey Ryan continue brawling before Ryan realises that the match is over and manages to make a quick retreat up the stage. Kevin Steen joins Colt Cabana in the ring and the pair proceed to mock Joey Ryan, doing poor but funny impressions of the PWG World Champion. With just three weeks until Colt Cabana puts his PWG contract on the line against Joey Ryan’s PWG World Championship Colt Cabana has once again come out on top.

- Joey Styles once again enters the ring, crossing paths with Colt Cabana and Kevin Steen in the process, and announces that the following match with be the PWG World Tag Team Championship match. Styles speaks about the recent feuds between Champions Alex Shelley & Chris Sabin and Davey Richards & Super Dragon as well as the feud between Arrogance and the Kings of Wrestling, which is why is has been decided that the following match needs to be fair. Styles goes on to announce that any interference in the forthcoming main event will result in an indefinite suspension!

7) PWG World Tag Team Championship Match – Alex Shelley & Chris Sabin Defeated Arrogance when Sabin hit the Shellshock on Chris Bosh. Two of PWG’s hottest tag teams clashed with the sole intention of walking away the PWG World Tag Team Championships. With the announcement that the winners of the this match will clash with Davey Richards and Super Dragon in a Ladder Warfare match there was a big sense of excitement and anticipation regarding who would walk away the titles here tonight. Both teams went at it with fast paced high flying styles that featured plenty of high spots that kept everyone on the edge of their seats. Unlike their match with Davey Richards and Super Dragon here tonight Shelley & Sabin found themselves being matched spot for spot and Arrogance really took them to their limit as they looked to retain the straps. There were numerous moments when the match appeared over and a pinfall not far away only for a sudden burst of action put both teams back on a level playing field. A final burst of high octane action rounded the match out as Chris Sabin took out Scott Lost with a one legged dropkick while Shelley put Chris Bosh down for the three count with the Shellshock to retain the PWG World Tag Team Championships!
