Card 01 – Maple Leaf Gardens, Toronto – January 4, 2015
Commissioner Charlie Cox welcomes the fans and tells us that tonight we will witness the crowding of a new Canadian Heavyweight Champion.
Canadian Heavyweight Title Tournament – Round One
Austin Aries v. Tyler Black
The back and forth early on between these two competitors who know each other well is amazing. Black nails a dive to the floor but Aries turns things around later on getting the best of an exchange at ringside. Aries misses a running corner dropkick and Black takes advantage connecting with a perfect superkick followed by a PHOENIX SPLASH (3) to get the three count. (2.0)
Tiger Mask v. Jerry Lynn
A handshake opening things and Mask goes to work with his blistering speed. Deathjump clothesline looks great. Lynn is reeling as lighting fast kicks lands and Mask flies. Mask comes of the top with a deathjump smash but a second attempt misses and Mask crashes to the mat for a two count. Lynn needs to capitalize and hits a twisting leg drop from the apron and sets up and hits a CRADLE PILEDRIVER. Mask kicks out but Lynn stays on him with a second CRADLE PILEDRIVER to get the comeback win. (2.0)
Chris Hero v. Nigel McGuinness
An interesting match from the outset that unfolds slowly at first. It is real chest game with neither man wanting to make the first mistake. McGuinness’s holds look punishing as he grinds away at Hero. McGuinness reverses an Irish whip and Hero hits the corner hard. McGuinness charges in but Hero sidesteps sending the London native crashing into the corner. Hero rolls up McGuinness and advances in shocking fashion. Arguably three consecutive upsets to start the night off. (1.5)
Danny Hodge v. Bryan Danielson
The crowd are on their feet for both men during the introductions and the fans are anticipating something special. Danielson counters an early arm drag and unleashes a suplex arsenal followed by a Yakuza Kick that gets a 1 count. Deathjump lands and Danielson goes for the submission with CATTLE MUTILATION but Hodge is not ready to quit yet. Hodge manages to counter and goes to work. Hodge with a clothesline after sending the Dragon into the ropes. Running slingshot in the corner connects after some solid mat action. Hodge nails a deathjump clothesline and follows with choke slam. OKLAHOMA SIDE ROLL nearly ends it. Hodge goes to the top again but misses his deathjump attempt and crashes to the mat where Danielson hooks the leg for two. The countering at this point is flawless as they go back and forth, move for move. Hodge breaks out with an airplane spin followed by a Boston Crab. Danielson escapes to the floor and Hodge follows. Danielson reverses an Irish whip and Hodge goes hard into the ring post. The referee calls for the disqualification and Hodge is onto the next round. The fans hate the call and Hodge is not pleased with the result as well but the decision stands. (3.0)
Canadian Heavyweight Title Tournament – Semi – Finals
Jerry Lynn v. Tyler Black
Some great speed in the opening moments that sees Lynn score a two count after avoiding Black’s charge to the corner. Lynn keeps on Black in and out of the ring and the fans love it. Black counters a backdrop with a piledriver and then hits a fireman’s carry gut buster that looks great. Black full nelson suplexes Lynn onto his noggin for a big near fall. Lynn somehow battles back including a German Suplex that forces Black to roll to the floor. Lynn continues to punish Black outside as well as inside the ring. Sunset flip power bomb rocks the fans. Black uses his strength advantage to mount a comeback and connects with a corner clothesline. Roundhouse kick stuns Lynn and Black hits another full nelson suplex that nearly kills Lynn. Superkick for a two ½ count. Deathjump smash sets up a PHOENIX SPLASH (2) but Lynn somehow kicks out at the last possible second. The fans are chanting. Black with a fireman’s carry gutbuster and Lynn rolls to the floor. Outside, Black lets his frustrations get the best of him and he rams Lynn into the ringside rails face first busting him open. The referee calls for the disqualification and Lynn makes it through to the finals. Black lays out Lynn and crushes him with a PHOENIX SPLASH leaving him in a heap before leaving to great heat. (3.5)
Danny Hodge v. Chris Hero
The match opens with a burst of speed from both men who duck under and cross over leading to Hero countering a backdrop with a piledriver. Hero Sandwich follows but Hodge is able to clamp on a Hodge Headlock. The affect is devastating before Hodge transitions to a choke slam that finishes Hero. Hodge appears to be picking up his game and will face a battered Lynn in the finals. (1.0)
Backseat Boyz (Trent Acid & Johnny Kashmere) v. PG 13 (Wolfie D. & J.C. Ice)
PG 13 attack the Boyz as they make their way to the ring with Ice running Kashmere into the ring post busting him open. More mayhem ensues on the floor before PG 13 crush Kashmere with a BACKBREAKER\ELBOW. Somehow Kashmere kicks out. PG 13 nails a double team bulldog and again Kashmere kicks out. They continue to get heat on Ice until a shoulder tackle spills Kashmere close enough to Acid for the tag. Acid is on fire and the crowd eats it up. Dream Sequence 2002 is awesome and has Ice reeling. PG 13 get a defensive tag and the momentum switches. Double bulldog to Acid and the match goes outside where D. runs Acid into the ring rails by the fans busting him open. The referee has seen enough and calls the disqualification. PG 13 lay out the Backseat Boyz after the match with hubcap smashes drawing huge heat as they leave the ring. PG makes a big statement on Card 1 and this one has the potential to be a marque feud over the next few weeks. (2.0)
Canadian Heavyweight Title Tournament – Finals
Jerry Lynn v. Danny Hodge
Lynn is bandaged up but appears ready to battle for the title as they shake hands. The Commissioner is at ringside ready to present the Title Belt to the winner of the match. Lynn clearly is in no condition to compete and is dominated from outset. Hodge uses a sleeper and gets the quick and clean win. Post match, Commissioner Cox presents Lynn with the title belt. (0.5)
