3/28 NWA Charlotte Report
——————————————————————————–
Courtesy of Jeff Richards:
Despite miserable weather and NCAA basketball season, NWA Charlotte rebounded from a disastrous fourth show to attract a modest 300+ crowd Saturday night.
Whereas the company’s previous show, "Know Thy Enemy," accented the group’s growing booking deficiencies, "Zero Tolerance" reclaimed tradition and prior momentum.
The promotion advertised one of the final touring appearances of Abdullah the Butcher and the debut of David Flair. Ringside observers wondered if Abby would enter the ring (he did not) and in what kind of shape was the oldest Flair son.
No one had to worry if there would be plenty of cruiserweight action, as the young 20-somethings bedazzled kids in attendance with their high-flying shenanigans.
A pre-show match actually kickstarted the night’s festivities, and a slew of CWF Mid Atlantic (
A. Xsiris pinned "El Fuego" Jesse Ortega in 7:17. Both youngsters were making their NWA Charlotte debuts. Ortega tried to back-suplex his way out of a side headlock, but Xsiris held on for dear life. Menacing glares from Ortega were the first indication that "The Fire" was portraying a heel. Xsiris executed a nice kip-up to an immediate armdrag. Both former CWF tag-team champions need mentoring help in working the crowd. I realized their main responsibility was to warm up the audience, but NWA officials’ eyes are always watching. Ortega planted Xsiris face-first with a legtrip and then trimmed his sideburns with a nice sliding dropkick. All the children attending received free NWA Charlotte "thundersticks," and they were beating them like crazy at this point. Ortega’s surfboard manuever underneath the ring ropes was innovative. If I had a dollar for every time a cruiserweight pulled off a spinning heel kick tonight, my ticket would’ve been comped. Ortega used a variation of "Rolling Thunder" in the corner to further cramp Xsiris’ style. A clumsy floatover exchange was rescued by Ortega’s quick resourcefulness (a cross armbreaker). Ortega also pulled out a rolling koppo kick before succumbing to Xsiris’ neckbreaker/pinfall cover combination. It was all pretty much an Ortega offensive display before Xsiris got the sudden duke.
Eddie Rich was back in the NWA Warehouse Saturday, and he does a superb job at setting the stage for what’s coming up. rich is prime-time material for the WWE ring announcer prototype. He announced the final match to determine a new NWA Charlotte U.S. Heavyweight Champion would be held on April 11th in the same building. As Rich began explaining the disappearance of tag team Chaotic Agony, laugher peeled from one gentleman. Rich protested, "Sir, this is no laughing matter," to which came the catcalls of "Yes, it is." He addressed an angle from the 2/28 show where Chaos & Agony were thrown off a high stage set (but were back by 3/14). Now they’re gone again? Sometimes it doesn’t pay to try & explain plot holes.
1. Joey Silvia pinned Malachi (w/new manager Ty Dillinger) in 8:31 after a reversed decision. All three work for Jeff Rudd’s CWF Mid Atlantic, and Silvia was in the first ever singles match here. Silvia superkicked the back of Malachi’s neck early. Dillinger interfered liberally at ringside in his shirt and tie. Both workers chopped each other with a tenacity that would make Ric Flair envious. With Silvia hung up in the ropes, Malachi delivered a middle rope springboard legdrop which nearly decapitated his prey. Working out of Charleston (SC), Malachi also hit a high angle German suplex for a near fall. After a mix-up of moves mid-ring, Malachi soared back with a powerslam. Malachi ducked a lariat and spiked Silvia with a devastating DDT. Silvia finally showed some offense with a backcracker in the corner, but Dillinger put Malachi’s leg on the
ropes. A superplex attempt fell through, so Silvia went for a sunset flip, and Malachi sat down on him with Dillinger providing leverage. Josh Magnum stooged off the illegal pin fall, and Silvia schoolboyed Malachi for the victory. Following the bell, Magnum (a babyface) got some retribution for a couple of Malachi’s post-match beatdowns with a chairshot of his own.
Rich alerted fans they they are now able to videotape matches/angles and put them on Youtube to win cash prizes.
2. The American Gangsters (Nicky & Frank) with luscious valet Crystal returned to defeat The Main Attraction (Chris Steele & Scott Powers) in 8:15. Nicky decided to verbally jar with fans on the microphone before the worst match of the night ensued. Gangsters, he said, are on the hunt for the NWA Charlotte Tag-team belts, which don’t exist yet. Attraction (last seen locally in Ben Throckmorton’s NACW) came out as fan favorites, which was an odd pairing. Steele
now looks like the late Bam Bam Bigelow minus 300 lbs. Powers has bellied up to the bar but not sure if it was a buffet or drinking establishment. Attraction were both wearing Marvel Comics character t-shirts. Powers and Nicky botched the second spot of the match, and the brutality was on. I think the promotion was afraid to book this as a heel vs. heel confrontation. The former Chilly Willy and Powers returned to the same page with an interesting exchange of fingerlocks. Powers powerslammed Nicky, and the Attraction connected with a nifty doubleteam move. Steele still works cruiserweight style and truly could add some psychology to that division. Nicky double underhook suplexed Steele into a nearfall. The Gangsters set up heat on Steele, making Powers the illogical choice for a hot tag. It was definitely an old generation v. new generation tag team tussle. Thankfully, the ultimate hot tag broke into four way action, and Powers got dumped. Steele was left to eat a Nicky kick to the face and a Frank spinebuster; Gangsters improved to 2-0. A white female fan got in their faces on the way back to the dressing room, but security was unavailable. Sounds like a plant!
On the interview stage,
3. "The Warhawk" Dylan Kage pinned Zach Salvation in 10:20. Kage was acting even more bizarre this month. He accidentally stumbled climbing the ropes while his intro music was playing. This was the duo’s first meeting in an NWA Charlotte ring. Salvation had teamed previously with the heelish Lewis on Valentine’s Day before becoming a beloved baby face. Kage "Pearl-Harbored" his foe, but the cruisers were going too fast and blew some early spots. Salvation decided to fly, but Kage tripped him up so no Asai moonsault. Salvation reversed an Irish whip outside the ring, and Kage took a nasty bump into the great-sounding ringsteps. With a tip of the cap to Ricky Steamboat, Salvation attempted a flying bodypress, but Kage kept rolling over for a nearfall. Salvation even brought back the old-fashioned monkey flip. The two brawled outside the ring again, but back inside Kage began bending back on Salvation’s left limb. A cool spot saw Kage give Salvation a Northern Lights suplex while still holding onto a hammerlock. Salvation wanted the win with a small package but only received a two count. Still applying the hammerlock, Kage roared back this time with a backbreaker. Salvation rallied with a Scorpion deathdrop, and a huracanrana sent Kage flopping into the corner. The second time’s the charm, as Salvation flip dived ala Jushin Liger, and Kage went splat on the ramp. In the end, though, it was the Kevork kick which spelled the end for Salvation. With mic in hand, Kage questioned Salvation’s rise to fame as the "#1 contender" and proclaimed himself "Professional Wrestling’s Best Kept Secret."
NWA Charlotte President J.D. Costello entered the ring with a bevy of security guys. Costello said he had just received a text message from Truitt Fields, who said he had been involved in an 9-1-1 accident. This left everyone wondering if Fields’ absence was a work or shoot-related. Costello also announced he had called Attorney Jeff G. Bailey and told him to leave his assassin Kimo at home
tonight. Every mention of a heel’s name was bringing monster pops. Costello stated that he had some surprises for the likes of Phill Shatter and Mikael Judas. Firstly, he brought out The Iceberg (Edward Chastain) from NWA Anarchy. Then Costello heralded the debut of Team Macktion (Kirby & TJ Mack), who came out to music and a Rock ‘n’ Roll Express reaction. Judas and NWA National
Heavyweight Champion Shatter strolled out. Why are these two guys siding together after feuding with each other just four shows ago? Macktion (sans Thomas Simpson for this show) attacked early, and Shatter powerslammed TJ on the carpeted ramp. Judas took Kirby up to the top of the stage area, but Mack had other ideas than to take that precarious bump. Shatter and Judas had Kirby alone in the ring for several moments before referee Cash came dashing into the ring.
4. The match officially started, and Team Mack was in for a squashing. Judas bufferfly suplexed Krazy K into the turnbuckles but couldn’t get the pin. TJ finally crawled up to the ring apron awaiting his turn at the demolition. Judas accidentally spit on the cameraman at ringside during the heat-gathering. A big Yakuza kick by Judas left Kirby crumbled up in a corner. Judas flew three-fourths of the way across the ring with a clothesline on Kirby. That big move should have been the finish. Next month in
INTERMISSION (at 9:20) lasted 25 minutes.
Costello is truly over-exposed here. With no Jay Joyce in sight (and I know how hard that is to believe), Costello again addressed the audience. The authoritative figure brought out all the "bad guys" from the dressing room area. Gangsters, Lewis, Malachi, Shatter, Judas, Ryan O’Reilly and Ostgard were in the ring. Dressed in red, Abdullah the Butcher returned to
5. Magnum vs. Ostgard was ruled a no contest in 10:20 when Malachi made his third appearance of the night. There must be a tattoo parlor nearby the NWA Coliseum because I have never seen so many tats in one place. And that’s just the workers. Ostgard is quite flamboyant and was acting all "ManScout" during the pre-match intros. Magnum, a regular in
seemingly waiting for Malachi’s interference. Ostgard with a nice floatover on a snap suplex showed off his inimitable chain wrestling skills. He slid under Magnum to apply a half crab submission attempt. There was supposed to be a schoolboy near-fall off an exchange Ostgard had with referee Ace, but Magnum was nowhere in position. Magnum did his handspring elbow into the ropes for an enzugiri but missed on a 450 when Malachi made his appearance. The announce table broke Magnum’s fall after Malachi gave Josh a shove. For good measure, Malachi also powerbombed a prone Ostgard. Xsiris, Salvation and Silvia hit the ring to confront Malachi, but the heelish cruiserweights weren’t far behind. As all eight men slugged it out, Costello (w/Iceberg) told the lighter weight wrestlers that they could all battle for the NWA Charlotte Cruiserweight Title on April 25th in a TLC battle royal. Magnum was left in the ring to soak up the cheers.

JD Costello announced that Jim Cornette would definitely be here on April 11 and that he was turning the entire organization over to him that night.
Match 6- Timber defeated Abdullah the Butcher via DQ

After some shenanigans from the Blue Dragons reminiscent of the Killer Bees, Shirley Doe was able to pick up the big win, advancing to the four-way with a lariat, assisted by a loaded elbow pad.
Backstage, NWA East fans were reintroduced to "Hot Property" Jason Cage. As he was about to tell the crowd what he has planned for his NWA East return, he was interrupted by everybody’s favorite harlot, Krystal Frost. Frost made him an offer to join her stable of young lions, but Cage refused.

Stacy Hunter revealed before the show that her choice of challenger for Ryan Mitchell was none other than Devin Devine! With no members of the Championship Committee in the building, Hunter, Devine, and Dash Bennett decided that the best way to ensure Devine’s reinstatement to the company was if he was to win the title in the four-way. However, the "Steel City Prodigy" had something to say about that, as a Steel Curtain ensured victory for Mitchell!
After the match, Hunter warned Mitchell that with her, you always have to watch your back. Just then, Mitchell was attacked by a young man we came to find out is Criss Crossfire, a

Cage was impressive in his return to NWA East after a 3 and a half year absence. He was able to dispose of Crossfire with an impressive array of moves.

He announced that Joe Dombrowski called him and said that at Burgh Brawl, there will be a Three Rivers Title Gauntlet Scramble! Involved in the match will be champion Gregory Iron, Cage, Crossfire, and LeRusso, making his return tot he ring after a gastro-intestinal injury kept him on the shelf!

As he and Frost celebrated, Hansen claimed NOBODY could stop him…

But, Doe laid out Gash after the match and lifted the NWA East Heavyweight Title belt high above his head!

Final Conflict
Spontaneous Sports
Egg Harbor Township, NJ
NWA/Force One Pro Wrestling presented it’s "Final Conflict" card at Spontaneous Sports in
Commissioner Tommy Cairo thanked the 203 NWA/Force One fans who turned out for this exciting evening. The show started with local talent Toni Ann Gisondi Pugliese singing a very spirited version of the national anthem.
In the opening contest, newcomer Johnny Calzone defeated former F1 Heavyweight Champion Breaker Morant via disqualification. Morant was the aggressor for most of the match, however, Calzone’s newest friend & mentor "The Midnight Idol" Nicky Benz came down to ringside to hand Calzone his personal pizza tray. Morant’s friend White Lotus landed at ringside & snatched the tray from Benz before Calzone could use it, however referee Spanky 123 saw Lotus holding the tray, and disqualified Morant, giving Calzone the victory. After the match, Morant & Lotus engaged in a shoving match which then turned into them exchanging punches. Ring announcer Phil Varlese reminded both wrestlers that they have been friends for well over 10 years, and requested that they shake hands before they leave the ring, but both chose to bail, rather than settle their differences.
The next match was requested by Millionaire Ted Jr. & involved two members from his stable, Luscious LaRon, and "The Pretty Hate Machine" Jason Gotti. Ted told LaRon prior to the start of the match that he wasn’t particularly happy with his performance at the Barnegat show in February, and that he had to defeat Gotti to remain part of the Million Dollar Empire. LaRon did an excellent job of taking the fight to Gotti, but just as he was ready for a victory, the Empire’s newest members, The Repeat Offenders, and Big Bear Borselli hit the ring, took out LaRon, and gave Gotti the victory. After the match, they continued the beatdown on LaRon, until The Latin Cliq (with Bodyguard Angel) and Rockin’ Rebel made the save. Rebel took the mic to launch one of his verbal assaults on the empire, and suggested that even though their match was scheduled later in the evening, since they were all at ringside, it would be good to get it on right now.
In that six man tag match that had bodies flying all over the ring, the team of Rockin Rebel, Razor Rivera, and Panther defeated the team of Pete Nixon, Crazy Ivan, and Big Bear Borselli. The end came when Rebel hit Borselli with a kick, dropped the leg on him, and rolled him up for the pin.
The next match was a Gauntlet match for the vacant NWA/Force One Junior Heavyweight Belt. The first 2 combatants were Chiki Cortes (without Angel, who was injured in the previous match), and his former tag partner and former Junior Heavyweight Champion RV1, who entered the ring with his new manager "The Ultimate Stud" Jimmy Clydesdale. RV1 got the victory over Cortes, and moved on to the next match in the gauntlet, which was against "The Hybrid" Josh Adams. During that match, former champion Ryu Lee and his manager Millionaire Ted Jr. made their way to ringside. With lots of back & forth action between these 2 competitors, RV1 again pulled out the victory, and now had to face "The Loudmouth Of Perfection" Kevin Cunningham. Again, lots of pin attempts by both wrestlers, but RV1 was eliminated due to interference by Ted & Lee, and Cunningham stole the victory. This led to Cunningham vs. Ryu Lee, and despite some excellent moves from Cunningham (including a
leap not from one, but 2 ropes in the corner) Lee took the victory and has regained the Junior Title.
After a 20 minute intermission, the second half of the show began, and saw Judas Young come to ringside with the local roller derby team The Boardwalk Brawlers. His opponent was the former Iron League Champion, and the pride of the Million Dollar Empire Patch, who was accompanied to ringside by Millionaire Ted Jr. This match was to decide the number one contender for the Iron League Championship, which was to be defended in the next match. In a hard fought match by both competitors, Patch got the victory when Judas appeared to be distracted by a particular member of the Boardwalk Brawlers.
"The Midnight Idol" Nicky Benz came out, did something that may have resembled comedy, then began to "sing". He was interrupted by NWA/Force One Iron League Champion Diego DeMarco and Jimmy Clydesdale. This match was announced as a No DQ, Falls Count Anywhere stipulation, and both men took advantage of this opportunity. Benz got the win and became the new Iron League titleholder when he put DeMarco into unconsciousness, and could not continue.
In the Main Event, it was announced that former champion Danny Doring would not be available due to scheduling conflicts, but co-commissioner Phil Varlese announced that since NWA/Force One wanted to give their fans the best possible matches, the four way first pin was being changed to a 3 man Elimination Contest. #1 contender Danny Gimondo was introduced, which led to former F1 champ White Lotus coming to the ring, and then finally current title holder Stevie Richards. This match was an all out brawl, first with both Richards & Lotus double teaming Gimondo, and later with Gimondo staging a comeback on both men. He then knocked Lotus out, went outside the ring to grab a steel chair, hit Richards, then threw the chair to the semi conscious Lotus, grabbed referee Spanky 123, and demanded that Spanky disqualify Lotus. Varlese came to ringside and announced that it was in fact Gimondo who was being disqualified, which led to him literally going berserk both
in and out of the ring, much to the fans delight. After a hard fought battle that even saw Lotus use Richards signature Stevie Kick on him, Richards regained the advantage and defeated Lotus to retain the NWA/Force One Heavyweight Championship. Richards, after putting his belt back on, thanked the crowd, and requested that Lotus’ music be played as well, as he is truly a Force One Champion.

Bellahouston Leisure Centre
Bellahouston, Scotland
BT Gunn defeated Lionheart & Adam Chame to win the NWA Scottish Heavyweight Championship
The main event of the night featured a fast paced triple threat for Shame’s title and for a while it looked like Lionheart was about to reclaim his place at the top of the food chain.
Every time Lionheart had the advantage, Shame’s manager Charles Boddington would constantly get in the way of victory, distracting the referee and it was thought to be all over when Lionheart his a picture perfect frog splash on Shame, but despite all the distraction on Shame’s behalf it just wasn’t his night.
With all eyes on Shame and Lionheart since their match in January, the vocal competitor BT Gunn, who reaffirmed his status as number one contender in February, was able to gain the win taking advantage of his opponents mutual hatred for each other, thinking quickly to ensure he was the man who left with his title.
His tag team partner, Micken, came out to celebrate with him but only attacked the new champion for doing the one thing he hasn’t been able to achieve. The two were already scheduled for a friendly match at After Hours on April 5th but now it seems the sakes are higher!
SWA’s new owner revealed!
After a lot of speculation over who the new owner could be in our Forums, Fan Access and elsewhere the crowd were stuned to see retired SWA talent Eric Canyon return to reveal he had traded in his boots and invested in the company.
In one of his first acts of power, he made the decision that Majik would have to fight that night. But there was a twist… if Majik lost that night, or any match following in SWA, he would have to retire from professional wrestling just as he did last year.
Further Results
– Majik defeated Red Lightning
– Falcon defeated Kid Fite
– Micken defeated Wolfgang
– BMW & Conscience defeated Chris Renfrew, the Pryor & Nathan Black
– The Raging Bull & Viper defeated Mark Stevens & Nikki Storm
