With the eyes of the wrestling world focus on the Greater Toronto Area for Summer Slam weekend, I thought this would be a good time to launch a new Indy fed. Some fresh faces that I have not used before.
Card 01 – Super Showdown – Midtown Event Theatre, Toronto, ON, August 9, 2019
Brodie Lee downed “The Last Real Man in Professional Wrestling” Silas Young with back to back BIG BOOTS in a hard-hitting battle that saw Young take a vicious beating in and out of the ring before Brody hit his finisher for the fifth time in the match. 2.5
Kellie Skater escaped MsChif by disqualification when a frustrated MsChif used a chair to choke out a battered Skater. MsChif dominated most of the action with the occasional offensive flurry from Skater but she could not find a way to put Skater away before her frustration got the best of her. 1.5
“The Villain” Marty Scrull submitted Ricochet with a CATTLE MUTILATION in a fast-paced wild encounter that saw Ricochet crash and burn two attempts at a 630 Senton but still controlled most of the match. 2.5
Claudio Castagnoli forced Tommy End to tap to an Inverted Chikara Special in a one-sided contest that saw Castagnoli get the best of a brawl on the floor and crush End with a RICOLA BOMB before getting the submission. Dud
In a match that the fans wanted to go much longer, Will Ospreay pinned Zack Sabre Jr. after using a fireman’s carry gutbuster to set up an ESSEX DESTROYER for the three count. 1.5
Ontario Championship Wrestling Tag Team Title Match: Young Bucks defeated El Generico & “Wrestling’s Worst Nightmare” Kevin Steen with a MELTZER DRIVER to a bloodied Steen with the pin save being blocked. The Bucks’ speed and double teaming dominated the match including MORE BANG FOR YOUR BUCK thee four times during the match (two to each opponent). The Young Bucks win the titles! 3.5
Ontario Championship Wrestling Title 4-Way Match: Tyler Black defeated Adam Cole, Austin Aries & Johnny Gargano. The opening fall was a bit of shocker with Austin Aries centering his attack on Johnny Gargano while Tyler Black and Adam Cole brawled into the crowd. Aries picked up near falls after a 450 SPLASH and frog splash before connecting with a second 450 SPLASH for the elimination. The second fall showcased Tyler Black as he dominated against his two opponents. He nearly put away Adam Cole with a PHOENIX SPLASH mid way through the fall before he crushed Austin Aries with a Rubix Cube for the pin.* During the final fall, Black was nearly counted out of the ring after Cole dove onto him at ringside but Black came back crushing Cole with Paroxysm and then finishing him off with a buckle bomb/superkick combo to claim the title. 3.5
* Despite multiple rolls, there was not a single pin save . . . First time that has happened for me in a matching using the Shimmer 4-way charts.
Pick Six
1. Adam Cole
2. Austin Aries
3. Johnny Garagno
4. Claudio Castagnoli
5. Will Ospreay
6. Brodie Lee
