CHIKARA #1
The Palmer Center
Easton, PA

1) In the opening match, "Técnico" Tim Donst was toyed with like a little puppy by LuFisto. She kept Donst off his toes by keeping the battle outside the ring; Donst was helpless. After a Diving Star Headbutt, Donst was unable to get back to the ring and was counted out. LuFisto put Donst on her shoulders and helped him to the back.

2) 3.0 had their hands full with The Tribe. Shane Matthews started the match out with Navajo Warrior. After doing a good amount of damage, Scott Parker came in and almost put Warrior away. 3.0 went on to nail a 3.0 Lung Blower on Warrior. Olivia interfered and luckily her man survived. "Big Magic" then delivered an onslaught of "Boston Crabs!" that eventually made Warrior tap out.

3) The ICW/ICWA Tex-Arkana Television Champion, Larry Sweeney, showcased why he's one of the best in the business when he went up against the strong-style ant, Worker Ant. Sadly, Worker Ant is worked over from bell to bell. In the end, Sweeney finished off his opponent with the 12 Large Elbow.

4) CHIKARA Grand Championship: In the main event, Icarus said he would only put his title on the line against a "top-tier competitor; someone out of this world that would push him harder and further than he has ever been pushed." Fans were not buying it, and their boos became ear-shattering once the CHIKARA Grand Champion called out Dragon Dragon. Icarus whipped his opponent into the ropes and quickly finished him off with the Blu-Ray. After the pin, Icarus insisted he act as if he had just been in the biggest battle of his life.

CZW #1
Flyers Skate Zone
Voorhees, NJ

1) In the opening match, Alex Colon made quick work of The Hobo. Colon didn't allow the bearded, homeless brawler any offense; Colon simply beat down The Hobo. The fans were not into this match at all. In the end, Alex Colon finished The Hobo off via Done Deal.

2) OI4K & Nevaeh took on Criminal Justice & Laura Phoenix in the second match; however, it was over fairly quickly. A brawl broke out outside of the ring between all four men, but this allowed Nevaeh to put Phoenix in a Scorpion Death Lock in the center of the ring; Phoenix tapped out within a few seconds.

3) DJ Hyde dismantled Greg Excellent in a "no rules" match, though no weapons were really utilized. Hyde hit Excellent with some pretty ugly, big power moves in the ring before taking the fight into the fans. The fans were not behind Hyde at all. They did, however, give a big pop when he sent Excellent crashing into the concrete floor with two Shadow Drivers; the final Shadow Driver kept Excellent down for the count.

4) CZW Wired TV Championship: In the main event, "Bulldozer" Matt Tremont came down to the ring and demanded to fight Shane Strickland for the CZW Wired TV Championship. Strickland accepted and the fight was on. The match did not go Strickland's way whatsoever. Tremont hit Strickland with every big move in his arsenal. Even though Strickland put on a strong defense, it was the final Uranage that put Strickland away for good. "Bulldozer" Matt Tremont became the new CZW Wired TV Champion!

EVOLVE #1
The Brooklyn Lyceum
New York City, NY

1) Biff Busick and Arik Royal opened the show with an epic back-and-forth match, with Busick taking most of the bumps. Royal hit the Kurt Cobain Sick Kick early on, but Busick was not ready to go down. Every time Busick got the upper-hand, Royal would stall and go to the outside. Busick looked to be ready to finish Royal with the Half & Half Suplex, but it was blocked twice. Finally, a beaten Biff Busick hit his finisher; however, Royal placed his foot on the bottom rope. Busick couldn't believe it! He got back up to his feet but was dropped with a second Kurt Cobain Sick Kick. Royal then collapsed on top of Busick and picked up the 1... 2... 3!

2) AC/DC took on the Bravado Brothers in a classic tag team match. Harlem and Lancelot controlled Arik Cannon early on. Darin Corbin came in and slowed everything down with a Slow Motion Irish Whip, but it came back to bite him in the rear; Lancelot rolled him up for a pin. Luckily, Cannon made the save. However, the referee then went down after a double-team scuffle. Lancelot nailed the perfect Deadlift German Suplex. The crowd chanted to 3 but nobody was there to count. Eventually, the referee got back up and the fight continued. Lancelot finished Cannon off with a top rope cross-body block. Both teams shook hands after the match.

3) Mike Quackenbush relentlessly beat Nigel McGuinness with nearly every version of the Quackendriver he could conjure up. The crowd turned on Quack when he displayed the desire to hurt McGuinness, not just beat him. After back-to-back-to-back-to-back Quackendrivers, security and referees ran down to get Quack to end the match. Quack smirked and did just that; he dropped McGuinness with a final Quackendriver II to pick up the sick win.

4) Open the United Gate Championship: Larry Dallas walked out to the ring as the Open the United Gate Champions, the Premier Athlete Brand, waited for their surprise opponents. Dallas badmouthed the PAB, especially Konley. He then introduced his new tag team to EVOLVE... Natural Scene Selection! Brian Cage and Shaun Ricker came down to the ring and the match started. Ricker and Cage manhandled Nese, not allowing Konley to get in a lot of action. After multiple finishers by both members of NSS, and the inability to get to Konley, Nese fell to Brian Cage's Weapon X. Konley could not make the save because Dallas grabbed on to his legs. Natural Scene Selection became the new Open the United Gate Champions!

It's good to see the action rolling out Dust, plus I liked how Royal won and the same for NSS in EVOLVE...

ROH #1
Wings Stadium Annex
Kalamazoo Township, MI

1)What was shaping up to be a good match quickly ended in error. Mark Briscoe found no favor with the referee after accidentally striking Mike Bennett with a steel chair. Brutal Bob had a chair ready to strike, but Briscoe yanked the chair out of his hand and caught Bennett across the face.

* The World's Greatest Tag Team, Charlie Haas and Shelton Benjamin, were backstage. They demanded to face reDRagon for the ROH World Tag Team Championship. reDRagon walked up to WGTT and it was obvious that there would not be a match anytime soon; Bobby Fish had his leg in a cast and was walking on crutches.

2) Los Banditos shocked everybody by really taking it to the American Wolves. At one point, after the referee was knocked down, Los Banditos were able to get two three-counts from the fans. Escondido and Dynamite were irate that they had actually won twice, but the count was never made. When the referee got up, Richards and Edwards still didn't have it together; Los Banditos finished the American Wolves off with the Bandito Badlands. Though not fan-favorites, the fans gave Los Banditos a round of applause.

3) Adam Cole got the best of Tommaso Ciampa. Making sure to frustate him throughout the match, Cole did his best to keep Ciampa confused and off-balance. In the end, Ciampa whipped Cole into the turnbuckle; the outcome was not as expected. Cole bounced off the turnbuckle with a charging clothesline and about near took Ciamp's head off. Cole picked up the win without a kick-out from Ciampa; "The Sicilian Psychopath" was obviously knocked out.

4) Due to the fact that reDRagon could not face The World's Greatest Tag Team, Charlie Haas challenged Kyle O'Reilly to a submission match. Haas must have forgotten it was a submission match because all he wanted to do was beat on O'Reilly outside of the ring. It looked to be over after the Haas of Pain, but the ROH World Tag Team Champion would not stay down. Out of nowhere, even though it seemed he was done, O'Reilly latched on an ankle lock to make Haas submit.

SHIMMER #1
Berwyn Eagles Club
Berwyn, IL

1) The Queens of Winning quickly finished off the Kimber Bombs. Kimber Lee only saw a little bit of action. Sara Del Rey softened up Cherry Bomb with a Cross Arm Breaker, and then Courtney Rush delivered an Olympic Slam. After the match, the QoW stated they were after 3G and the SHIMMER Tag Team Championship.

2) Daizee Haze had a difficult time fighting off Thunderkitty in the second match of the evening. After a DDT here and a DDT there, Thunderkitty hit one last DDT outside of the ring; Haze could not make it back to the ring before the count-out. Fans were behind Thunderkitty throughout the match.

3) During a match between Athena and Jesse McKay, Jesicka Havok hit the ring and beat down both ladies. Havok then stated that SHIMMER would never be the same after tonight. She told everyone that a monster would be arriving in SHIMMER very soon, a monster nobody, including Cheerleader Melissa, could get rid of.

4) In the main event, Mercedes Martinez went up against Saraya Knight. Halfway through the match, Jesicka Havok came out again. She got into the ring and pointed at Knight. Havok and Knight came closer together and stared each other down. They then looked at Martinez and attacked her. Knight made sure to tell everyone that SHIMMER would be forever changed. She closed by stating that the monster was real, and that "every SHIMMERing dream would be a KNIGHTmare."

* The camera went backstage where Cheerleader Melissa was clearly knocked out. She looked disheveled and could be heard moaning; the SHIMMER Championship was gone. Security, referees, and medical staff flocked to the scene and began checking on the champion. The show then went off the air...
