Booker Bill Presents OCW

[cruefan68]

I was pulling for Nick Madrid to retain but going against both Delirious and Michael Elgin was tough. It was a great match, though. Delirious defending against Adam Pearce should be good plus I am looking forward to Elgin vs. Shelton Benjamin with the possibility of either one getting the next title shot. Loved the description of Terex coming off the top on Joey Ryan and I also enjoyed Pearce vs. Anthony and the big win for Kyle O'Reilly over Bryan Danielson.

[bookerbill]

Thank you for the comments cruefan68. I was not sure how realistic the Terex spot would be but it was fun to play out. The Terex card has been a nice surprise.

[Deleted]

I love how you are using Terex.

[cruefan68]

Another changing of the guard in OCW with Adam Pearce beating Delirious for the title. Great win by Pearce and I look forward to seeing if he can have a strong title reign. The undercard was great as well, loved Danielson winning with Cattle Mutilation and Benjamin scoring the big win over Elgin.

[Pariah]

Wow! That was some superb action and your write-ups tee second to none...

Great to see El Generico score the winning pinfall in his tag match to the delight of the crowd... And Cole's comeback against Younger was exciting...

Shelton Benjamin... Now there's a guy who never fails to impress... He doesn't seem to make much noise in most feds, but he always gets the job done... People should keep an eye on him...

Congrats to Adam Pearce on becoming the new OCW Champion... Delirious fought a great match, but some bad luck at the end cost him...

Fantastic work... Looking forward to The Final Act!

CZW Card *
Chikara Card **
ROH Card ***

A somewhat disappointing conclusion to the first season with a disqualification finish in the main event and Cole absolutely destroying Michael Elgin in the co-feature. OCW will be looking to rebound in big way when Phase 2 kicks off the second season. And what better way to start things off then by awarding some more gold. Phase 2 will feature an event so huge that it cannot be contained in just one night. Sixteen teams will converge OCW to battle for the first ever OCW Tag Team Championship. OCW promoters have been negotiating with the hottest Indy Federations in North American to bring in the best talent possible so the competition will be in intense. Phase 2 night one will feature the opening eight bouts of the Tag Team Title Tournament plus a OCW Title Match as Adam Pearce puts his title on the line against the man he defeated for the title, Delirious. Phase 2 night two will feature the balance of the Tag Team Title Tournament plus second OCW Title Match! Oshawa has a rich pro wrestling history and start of the second season of OCW promises to add to that legacy.

[Pariah]

I guess some people may have been disappointed, but I LOVED the controversial finish to the main event... What an amazing cliffhanger to lead into next season... And it also does a great job of setting the table for the rematch between Pearce and Delirious...

As for Cole dominating Elgin... Sure, it was unexpected... But, maybe Elgin was feeling under the weather and the booker needed to find a way to get him in and out of the ring in the most painless manner possible...

Was really happy to see Allison Danger pick up a win... And watching Younger lock horns with Benjamin was a treat... Expected (and hoped) for FIST to triumph over Philly's Most Wanted, but it wasn't in the cards...

El Generico & Terex put on a stellar performance, despite the two missed attempts at the BRAINBUSTAAAHHH!!!

Beginning to end, this show never failed to entertain... And I think each match told a valuable story... As always, great fun!

[bookerbill]

Thanks for the feedback Pariah. Hope you continue to enjoy the action as OCW crowns the first Tag Team Champions.

WOW! So many surprising finishes throughout the tournament... Would've liked to see the Airborne go to the end... But, Osirian Portal fought hard and definitely earned the championship... Looks like there will be no shortage of competition waiting on their doorstep...

It was also cool seeing Delirious claim the big prize... Unfortunate that his reign came to a end so quickly... Big congrats go to Terex... Nice work!
