DDT4 2013

[TTX]

Just wildly guessing on my part
Steen and Generico
DojoBros
Young Bucks
SSB
to advance
and Younger to win as there would be little point in having a best of three that ended in two matches without a really good reason.

No way are DojoBros beating Future Shock without a dang good reason.

My predictions for round one:
Steenerico
Future Shock
Ricochet and Swann
Elgin and Cage

BOLA was about elevating new guys and creating a new upper midcard/main event scene. This will probably further establish them.

If you have not already heard, El Generico is injured. Willie Mack instead will team with Kevin Steen at DDT4.

Hmmm might see the Briscoes win with Generico out. Still think they'd lose in the 2nd round however.

Switchfoot is absolutely correct about BOLA pushing new guys as the 4 semi-finalists were Adam Cole, Michael Elgin, Sami Callihan, and Ricochet.

But, and I was talking to someone about this earlier tonight who is from the Carolinas and who attends PWX shows, the Dojo Bros are my current pick to win DDT4 and become the new PWG World Tag Team Champions. That way they can team up with Adam Cole like in PWX and the 3 of them will hold all of the titles in PWG.

I wouldn't be surprised if Cole turns on Kyle O'Reilly in their first round match against Roderick Strong and Eddie Edwards to allow the Dojo Bros to advance.

If you have not seen the news already, as I mentioned on another thread, PWG announced today that El Generico despite his shoulder injury is insisting in appearing at PWG this weekend and he will indeed be participating in the tournament with Kevin Steen as his tag team partner!

El Generico has wrestled in more PWG shows than any other wrestler with Joey Ryan in 2nd place. How ironic their PWG send offs are apparently occurring 1 month apart and on back to back shows as Joey Ryan made his final PWG appearance last month at Mystery Vortex due to signing with TNA. I wonder what Kevin Steen will say to El Generico at DDT4 this weekend?

I was originally thinking about wearing my new Drake Younger shirt to PWG this weekend. But now I know for sure I will instead be wearing my El Generico shirt to PWG this weekend.

After driving all night through the desert, the show did not end until almost 1:00 AM, I just got back from PWG's DDT4.

I don't know for sure, but I think some people got turned away tonight as it was announced that there were only a small number of tickets available for purchase at the door and the line for those without tickets went around the building. Lots of people standing for the show and because of the capacity crowd, PWG did not even set up their merchandise table and instead sold their DVDs from the ring itself (I bought PWG Sells Out Volume 3 tonight.)

When I got to my front row seat, I saw someone 3 seats away (the 2 seats between us were empty at the time) and (somehow not recognizing who he was at first) I asked him to hold my seat while I went to the bar. He said sure no problem and I soon found out this guy was Richie Ramone the drummer from The Ramones. Richie Ramone follows wrestling as he was telling the chick he was with about the history between El Generico and Kevin Steen. The Ramones are one of my favorite bands of all time, so meeting Richie Ramone and sitting near him in the front row at PWG was a really cool experience!

The show itself was amazing as usual. Why do I drive a total of almost 10 hours (back and forth combined) in a single day to see PWG? because PWG is indeed simply the best damn fed of anyplace in this country. No question about it.

results:

Young Bucks defeated The Inner-City Machine Guns (Ricochet & Rich Swann.) Great match to open the show.

Future Shock defeated Dojo Bros. Since they had alot of momentum at PWG going into this match, I thought the Dojo Brothers might win but the end came when most of the crowd was distracted by Eddie Edwards going over the top rope and accidentally kicking a fan in the face and knocking the guy to the ground as Adam Cole grabbed the PWG World Championship belt and nailed Roderick Strong in the back of the head and got the pinfall as a result.

The Unbreakable F*cking Machines (Brian Cage & Michael Elgin) defeated PWG World Tag Team Champions Super Smash Bros. I really like the tag team of Elgin and Cage alot. Watching them pass back and forth an upside down Stupefied from one suspended suplex hold to another suspended suplex hold was amazing. Player Uno got hurt and could not use his left arm to finish the match which saw Elgin and Cage win and become the new PWG World Tag Team Champions.

Kevin Steen and El Generico defeated the Briscoe Brothers. Good to see the Briscoe Brothers back in PWG again for the first time in almost 2 years! I liked the finish of this match alot! Before this match started, the ring was completely covered in streamers for El Generico who was making his final PWG appearance after wrestling for them for 8 years and being the wrestler who has made more appearances for PWG then anyone else.

After intermission, the Young Bucks defeated the The Unbreakable F*cking Machines to become 3 time PWG World Tag Team Champions. I am hoping PWG keeps using Elgin and Cage as a tag team but that obviously depends on whether Cage is indeed going to TNA after his Gut Check appearance on the last TNA episode.

Kevin Steen and El Generico defeated Future Shock. A great ending to this match with Steen and El Generico working more in tandem unlike their first match of the night against the Briscoes where they were still arguing with each other in the ring.

Willie Mack defeated B-Boy in a non-tournament match. I got to talk to Willie Mack again before the show and he told me he will not be at the next FSW show here in Las Vegas because he is getting booked to wrestle in Australia for awhile.

Drake Younger defeated Sami Callihan by submission in a Knock-Out or Submission Only Match to tie their best of 3 series for a PWG World Championship match at 1-1. This match was really violent like a CZW ultraviolence match. In the ring, they were hitting each other so hard with chairs that the chairs were breaking upon impact and the broken pieces were flying into the crowd. Afterward, Younger said California is now his home state and that he is going to defeat Sami in their deciding matchup and then going after the belt.

In the finals, PWG World Tag Team Champions the Young Bucks defeated Kevin Steen and El Generico. During this match, Steen was fighting Matt Jackson out of the ring right in front of me and this stupid fan behind me yelled at Steen to do a powerbomb. Steen responded "What? I can't hear you." The fan repeated saying "Do a powerbomb." Steen acted like he was going to going to give Matt Jackson a powerbomb but then instead just raked Matt Jackson's back and then flicked off the fan standing behind me. Steen hates being told what to do, that fan was an idiot.

When the match ended, the ring was filled with PWG wrestlers from the back who came out in honor of El Generico. Steen told El Generico "Without you, I'm nothing" and then Steen and Generico hugged each other in the center of the ring. A very emotional evening with El Generico making his final PWG appearance.

After the show, I got my Michael Elgin card signed. But I already got my copies of the ROH cards for the other wrestlers who were hanging out afterward such as El Generico and the Dojo Bros.

I had another great time at PWG last night! I really wish I could have stayed overnight in California to go to today's CWFH tapings. But Monday at work is the final day of the semester before semester final exams begin the rest of the week and I had to get back to Las Vegas right after PWG due to some work related deadlines on Monday.

Steen and Generico at the end of last night's show:

Here is the preview for DDT4 (El Generico's final PWG show) which I think will be released this week.

You can see me right at the very start of this preview in my black leather jacket in my front row seat standing behind Michael Elgin.

As I mentioned last month on Facebook, the guy in the black leather jacket 3 seats to my right is Richie Ramone from the Ramones.

A chop to the privates has to sting, a little.....
