WFWF: Event Horizon Review
By ICHABOD SLIPP| @i_Slipp| DECEMBER 25th

*Editor's Note: Am I the only one that gets irritated when people film things vertically?*
*#*#*#*Happy Holidays!*#*#*#*
I would say Merry Christmas, but I don’t want to offend anyone that doesn't celebrate it. It's bad for business.
But yeah, I hope everyone had a good one. My Christmas was okay; I spent it alone in my small apartment with my bloodhound, Dave. I’m not the closest with my family, in fact I haven’t seen them in years.
Now I don’t get political in my newsletter but being with my family is like watching a Civil War reenactment with live ammunition...

Real talk.
My mother’s side of my family are a bunch of whiny liberals who think the world owes them everything while my father and his side are more…old fashioned. They don’t like anybody but themselves.
Now of course, I’m not saying that you’re this if you’re on the Left and I’m not saying you’re that if you’re on the Right. All I’m saying is that it got so bad at the Slipp house that I just…up and left.
To quote Willie D from the Geto Boys, “Homie don’t play that.”
Politicians don’t care about you or me. They just pretend to. They'll say anything to earn your support. Keep that in mind next time you "vote". #themoreyouknow
Anyway, we’re here to talk about wrestling, not politics. There are other people to go to for that sort of nonsense.
Event Horizon was….okay. I disagree with some of the feedback I read on Twitter – it wasn’t one of the best shows of the year.
I could address the Mesh controversy that happened earlier this month but at this point, I’d bebeating a dead horse feeding a fed horse.

Billy Broom vs. Ryan “Needles” Payne - **3/4
I’m slowly coming around to The Janitor. He’s still a bit green when he wrestles but he’s getting better and I respect that. The match was okay, Needles was more vicious than usual but it was just your standard Needles match. There was a ton of heat from the crowd for Needles, Oakland isn’t a fan.
A so-so opener.
***
Tyler Draven vs. Chris Priceless - *
Probably the worst match on the show…and it isn’t Draven’s fault. The guy’s pretty good, it was his opponent. He looked…off.
And sluggish.
The dude was moving like a zombie out there, which is kinda funny considering the supposed story that he died then came back to life. The WFWF has a history of booking guys when they aren’t 100% and this show was just another example of that. You don’t just…die and suddenly, you’re okay. Priceless needs time to rest and recover.

Penny Shannon vs. Mesh - **1/2
I don’t think anyone was expecting Penny Shannon to come back when she did…but to be quite honest, I don’t think she should have. She looked rusty out there – sure, she kept up with Mesh but she was always a step or beat behind.
Mesh certainly hasn’t really improved, in fact she’s rested on her laurels rather than evolve as a wrestler. Yeah, the crowd was super into the match but that’s just because the crowd are a bunch of sheep and they’ll cheer Mesh, just because the company has indoctrinated them to do so.
***
Tugarin Zmey vs. Frank Lynn - ***3/4
This. Match. Was. Over. Booked. Oh. My. God.
It was going well until all hell broke loose! Daphne, Draven, Whitner – all interfered and the match fell apart afterwards. You know, I’m a big fan of The Lethal Weapon but to be quite honest with you, he’s been getting…stale for me.
Which is a shame because Draven/Whitner/Lynn is MONEY.
That being said, this was the “best” match of the night and that’s not something to write home about.
Not the best match both Zmey and Lynn have been in.
On a positive note because that's what we do here at PWN.com; spread love, not hate - the matches announced so far for the LA show are looking lit.
Mesh vs. Daphne Velasquez in her first match since her injury?
Drakz vs. Penny Shannon?
Ante Whitner vs. Tyler Draven with Frank Lynn as the special guest referee?
If this next show disappoints, I'm never covering the WFWF again...
Just kidding.
Important reminder: Rumors are just that -- rumors. None of this has been confirmed as legitimate news, it’s just circulating around the pro wrestling rumor mill, but we present it as fact. Remember, take it all with a grain of salt. Or not. Up to you.
- The supposed main event of SuperBrawl X is Michael Kyzer against Drakz for the WFWF World Heavyweight Champion, however according to rumors, Kyzer has gained a lot of weight since he was last seen, and the Board of Directors don’t think Kyzer is in the best shape to wrestle. The “backup” main event is rumored to be Mesh versus the returning Shuggy in response to their “critically acclaimed” series of back-to-back matches. That’ll put butts in seats…
- According to rumors, the former WFWF World Heavyweight Champion David Brennan has reunited with A-wut, the little Thai boy that broke the internet a few months back. I’ve reported on Brennan’s feud with the United States Government before and it seems like the Cheddar Administration wants to make sure that the former champion pays the price for breaking into The White House illegally. Government officials are supposedly looking for David Brennan in Thailand but are having no luck finding him. Retirement never looked so good, I guess.
- The WFWF video game – WFWF: World Tour was supposed to be released last night on Christmas Eve but according to rumors, the game has been delayed until “sometime in 2020” after there was an explosion at the studios of indy game developers, LIM0Z33N. According to rumors, there was a potluck and one of the dishes that was brought caught on fire and there was supposedly a loose wire in the walls that caused the building to explode. A few employees were badly injured, except for one employee who passed out in the restroom after having too many drinks. He died.
The computers inside were burnt to a crisp, causing the studio to lose all the progress they had made on the video game. They issued the following statement of Facebook:
