IN HONOR OF TRADITION
NOVEMBER 2010

6-PERSON TAG TEAM GRUDGE MATCH
JIVE SOUL BRO'S & JAZZ vs. ROCK & ROLL EXPRESS & ?
"NIKKI ROXX would be the mystery partner for Ricky & Robert and she would go right after Jazz and connect with her Polish Hammer seemingly knocking a tooth out of the mouth of her opponent! Jazz would not stay down and the two would lay into each other throughout the match, the RnR Express would have the upperhand through out the match but could not put their opponents away. Frustration mounted and Ricky went to get a steel chair only to get caught by a GHOSTBUSTER Finisher by KoKo B. Ware on Morton for the three count!"

ONE SHALL STAND/ONE SHALL FALL TAG TEAM EXILE MATCH
CHRIS CANDIDO & KING KONG BUNDY vs. OX BAKER & MISSING LINK w/ SIR OLIVER HUMPERDINK in their corner!
"The biggest feud in the young history of this promotion comes to a violent, bloody end. The match itself did not last long but it was dare I say extreme so much so that security had to escort fans in the front row away do to the weapons being used and the blood loss from both teams...blood was spilled so badly that eye witness accounts stated that fans close to the action were getting sick do to the site of all the blood.

In the end it was Candido and Bundy despite the lights going out right when a crimson masked Bundy dove off the stage onto Baker with a splash, the lights came back on as the official counted three! The fans cheered in approval as Tammy Stych helped a blood soaked Candido up from a pile of broken glass

As EMT's rushed to aid all 4 men the crowd gave both teams a standing ovation in the up most respect for the match they just put on"

INTERNATIONAL DREAM RE-MATCH
JIM LONDOS vs. KONNAN
"Many in attendance called this the match of the night but did not settle anything as it went to a thirty minute draw! Each man had several chances and moments to get the victory but the shear will wanting to be better than the other man came into play here, as the bell rang both men slowly got to their feet as Konnan held out his hand in respect to Londos who for a moment looked to refuse it but eventually responded as both athletes embraced and raised each others hand in victory"

MIDWEST TAG TEAM CHAMPIONSHIP
(C) GIANT BABA & ANTONIO INOKI vs. DA' CRUSHER & RAY "THE CRIPPLER" STEVENS
"All out war between these two teams that the official had a hard time keeping control of, fans were not sure how to take the Japan team brawling as they are more about wrestling in the ring but they more than held their own up until Stevens went to drop Inoki with a crippling piledriver on the concrete when suddenly HACKSAW JIM DUGGAN stormed from the crowd to ringside and hit Stevens the man who injured him square in the jaw with his trusty 4x4! Da Crusher went to attack Duggan for his actions to Stevens when THE SANDMAN stopped him dead in his tracks with a sick singapore cane shot to the face..the official had no choice but to throw the match out do to the chaos!

One thing is for sure BLOOD, SWEAT & BEERS is back in a big way!"

MIDWEST CHAMPIONSHIP MATCH
(C) RIKIDOZAN vs. FRANK GOTCH w/DAN SEVERN in his corner!

"It's the third chapter to this rivalry and from a pure wrestling standpoint, these two rivals continue rewrite history. This time it was a 35 minute plus clinic with so much tremendous mat and chain wrestling it was ridiculous the counters and holds both of these legends performed in front of 500 people plus. The champion from overseas would eventually not only escape his opponents GOTCH TOE HOLD Finisher but was able to get the victory as the MIDWEST TAG TEAM Champions; Antonio Inoki & Giant Baba made their way to the isle way which was enough of a distraction for both Gotch and Severn for Rikidozan to take advantage and connect with a nasty forearm hammer to the back of the head for the three count and victory!

The three champions from the Far East stand in the ring together with their titles held high, as a shaken Frank Gotch looks on from ringside ." 

WORLD CUP OF WRESTLING
FINALS
"BRITISH BULLDOG" DAVEY BOY SMITH vs. ANTONIO ROCCA
"Both National Anthems played before the beginning match, and as the bell sounded to start the contest Smith delivered a forearm shot to the face of  Rocca  followed by a swinging neckbreaker for a NEAR fall. Antonio looked out of sorts but was able to respond and connect coming off the ropes with a picture perfect drop kick for a NEAR fall of his own. These two would go back and fourth like this for several moments each trying to dominate with their very contrasting styles. It was Englishman  that would eventually get the victory thanks to Davey catching Rocca coming off the ropes and hoisting him on his shoulder and delivering his running powerslam Finisher for the hard fought three count!  

 TO END THE SHOW, DAVEY BOY SMITH WAS PRESENTED WITH THE OFFICIAL WORLD CUP OF WRESTLING WITH HIS NAMED ENGRAVED UNDER THE YEAR 2010 AS ONCE AGAIN THE NATIONAL ANTHEM FOR HIS COUNTRY PLAYED THROUGHOUT THE BUILDING"

He also announces for the next WORLD CUP OF WRESTLING event in 2014..Davey starts getting emotional with the fans cheering him on he announce his son; Davey Boy Smith Jr. will compete in England in that event to the cheer of the fans. Jr. comes into the ring and waves to the crowd! As from the isle Dan Severn and Frank Gotch look on as well.

With his son by his side Davey Boy announces that it will be two in a row for England come 2014. The two smile and embrace....Bulldog then turns to the camera then says that he is having a little fun out here but come January 2011 the fun stops for one Mr. Rikidozan because on the first event of 2011 this Bulldog is taking home the gold!...with that the fans cheer wildly as father and son leave

CHALLENGE MATCH
RICK RUDE vs. "PLAYBOY" BUDDY ROSE

"A real hard hitting affair that saw Rose get several near falls including one after connecting with a brain buster that everyone in the building thought was a three count BUT Rude escaped and suddenly got on a major offensive roll which eventually led to his RUDE AWAKENING Finisher for the 3 count and hard fought victory!"

AFTER THE MATCH GORGEOUS GEORGE AND CHERI DUPREE CAME FROM THE BACK TO HELP ROSE TO HIS FEET AS RUDE LOOKED BACK AT THE RING AND SAID THAT WAS FOR YOU SHERRI, GEORGE WAS IRRATE AS CHERI SEEMED TO SMILE BACK AT THE RAVISHING ONE

STEEL CAGE GRUDGE MATCH

BLUE MEANIE vs. DANNY DORING

"It all comes down to this, both athletes usually very entertaining during their introductions full of good times and a little bit of cockiness not this evening both very serious and focused on what is in front of them as they both enter the steel cage.

The crowd chanting Tradition as the steel door shut and the bell rang to begin the match with both men standing nose to nose and eye to eye in the center of the ring, when suddenly out of nowhere Meanie pants Doring!!!! and tries to run out the cage door just like that! Doring stumbled with his pants down around his knees but was able to trip Meanie before the Blue Guy could escape!

Doring was furious as he fixed his pants and then repeatedly slammed Meanie into the unforgiving steel busting his forehead wide open and before to long Blue Meanie face was hidden by the crimson mask.

A pantie drop elbow from the second rope nearly gave Danny enough time to escape the steel but some how Meanie was able to grab Doring and connect with a DDT! Meanie then did the unthinkable and climbed to the top of the cage and came down with his MEANIESAULT!!!!!!!

The fans were in shock and chants I am sure you can imagine rang out loud, as both men laid in the center of the ring for a few moments when finally it was actually Doring who slowly got to his feet first and then suddenly slowly started to ascend the cage to the very top!

When suddenly the lights flickered out for a few moments....it was pitch black in the building and you could hear the fans starting to wonder what the hell was going on...when suddenly the lights came back on only to see to everyone's amazement....

PINKIE SANCHEZ

On the top of the cage with Doring!...Sanchez would hit Doring right in the face with brass knuckles which would cause Doring who would then fall off the top of the cage to the floor below to the utter dismay and shock of everyone in the building...EMT's and wrestlers and officials would rush out to check on the fallen Doring as Pinkie would come down into the ring from the top of the cage.he would call over to Meanie and Orange Cassidy who ignored him and both checked on Doring. Local law enforcement rushed into the ring and took down Pinkie cuffed him and escorted him out of the building to end the show"

OPENING ROUND RESULTS

BRACKET A
MR. SAITO vs. DA' CRUSHER
"What an opening contest with the debuting international legend and the multi time Midwest Champion. Da' Crusher took and early advantage after seemingly knocking out Saito with a nastyforearm to the face and as he was going to apply his stomach claw..Saito fought off the attempt via a back elbow smash and quickly following up with his SAITO SUPLEX finisher into his prison Death lock submission for the victory as Crusher passed out! Mr. Saito stood in the ring victorious as the godfathers of Japan Wrestling (Inoki &Baba and Midwest Champion; Rikidozan) looked on on approval from the isleway"

CHARLIE HAAS vs. GREG "THE HAMMER" VALENTINE
"Both of these men stepping into a Tradition ring for the first time and they did not disappoint. Charlie got off to a fast start thanks o catching the Hammer coming off the ropes with a belly to belly suplex. Valentine with stood and gave some vicious Valentine chops that popped a few blood vessels in the chest of the Texas native but also took him down and The Hammer looked to get the win via his FIGURE FOUR LEGLOCK but before it was fully applied Hass would push Greg right into the ring post shoulder first! This led top a T-Bone suolex out of the corner right into the HAAS OF PAIN submission as Valentine tapped!"

ANTONIO INOKI vs. MAGNUM T.A.
"What a response for the debuting Magnum T.A. and what a match up with one half of the Midwest Tag Team Champions Inoki, these two battled back and fourth all the way to the 20 minute time limit! Magnum thought he had the victory around the 16 minute mark via a sleeper BUT Giant Baba camwe down to ringside and that distracted Magnum enough to release the hold and the match continued to the time limit."

FRANK GOTCH VS. ROCKY ROMERO

"We close out the opening round for BRACKET A with one of the mosr physical and technical matches possibly in Tradition's young history with Romero getting an early advantage catching Gotch off guard via a spring board tornado DDT! as Romero went for a ankle lock which Gotch escaped and got back on the offense in a great transition into a guillotine choke which Romero almost got the break via the ropes but he passed out inches from reaching the bottom rope for the break to have not only Gotch advance but get the bye into the finals of Bracket A."

OPENING ROUND RESULTS

BRACKET B

TIM DONST vs. JIM LONDOS
"Give a lot of credit to the young upstart Tim Donst in this match, hanging in and in some instances going toe to toe wrestling with Londos, which Jim admitted later in an interview he took Tim a little to lightly which almost cost him BUT in the end it was the grappler from Greece that got the win via his BOSTON CRAB Finisher right in the center of the ring in which Donst had no choice but to tap."

LARRY "THE AX" HENNING vs. "PLAYBOY" BUDDY ROSE
"The Ax came in with punishing blows to the body of Rose who got caught off guard BUT fought back with several forearms and a tremendous knee strike that looked as though knocked Heening out that had the official debating weather to stop the match if he reached a ten count. Henning would get to his feet to end all speculation at eight and come back with his double forearm hammer straight to the face of the playboy which led to his bear hug submission which would eventually give him the victory!"

DAN "THE BEAST" SEVERN vs. BILLY "RED" LYONS
"A standing ovation for the hometown combat sports legend, Severn who returns from injury after being on the shelf for over a year with an injury and what a back and fourth match between Severn and Lyons who was not intimidated by his opponent and of the moment so much so it looked as though he was going to pull of what some would call the upset of the first round as he had his FIGURE FOUR LEGLOCK Finisher applied and if it was not for the last ditch effort of Severn reaching the bottom rope no question Lyons would have advanced

But it was Severn who made a tremendous transition from Lyons trying to reapply the figure four after the break into his heel hook which would propel the Beast into the second round."



JIM BRUNZELL vs. GORGEOUS GEORGE

"Another return to the Tradition ring after an injury Jim Brunzell who also got a great reaction after his introduction, however that did not stop George to go right after him, taking the Killer Bee down to the mat and working over his left knee to the delight of Cherie Dupre' however one slip up turned the entire match around as George left the mat and went to the sky trying to come off the top rope with a knee drop only for Jim to move out of the way and despite limping on the worked over leg he was able top connect a running elbow smash and applying a sleeper hold in the corner and before Cherie would attewmpt to help out her man George tapped very quickly!

Brunzell ends Night two victorious and the Beauty Marks go zero for two in the tournament"

SECOND ROUND RESULTS

CHARLIE HAAS vs. MR. SAITO

"Once again the Godfathers of Japan (Baba, Inoki and Midwest Champion; Rikidozan stood watching in the isleway as Mr. Saito saw himself in trouble early on as the no nonsense Haas went right after him and concluded this early offensive explosion with an overhead belly to belly suplex, Charlie quickly went to apply his HAAS OF PAIN Finisher but Mr. Saito broke out of the hold before it was fully applied, got to his feet as the watchers from the isle slowly were making their way to ringside

They all backed off as soon as Saito connected with a nasty thrust punch to the heart! Followed by a Oriental leg sweep but Haas fought back to his feet and attempted a superkick which Mr. Saito ducked and hit a nasty back elbow strike that took down Charlie again right into the prison deathlock, in which Haas held on as long as he could but eventually passed out to the pain as Mr. Saito advances to face Frank Gotch who gets a bye out of the second round."

JIM LONDOS vs LARRY HENNING

"The Ax comes in just throwing hay makers to Londos in the corner as soon as the bell rings to begin the match which led to a stiff double forearm hammer busting the nose of Londos who seemed out on his feet when suddenly a man stormed from the back with a yellow and black mask on! Henning got distracted as the masked man got up on the apron as officials from the back came storming out to get the mysterious masked man out of the building.

Henning was screaming at the officials to get control when Londos recovered enough to deliver a crotch lift and slam dropping his bigger opponent right on the back of his head right into a sleeper grip and after a few minutes of struggling on the mat to try and escape, Henning was out cold and could not recover in time before his arm hit the canvas for the third time...Londos advances."

DAN SEVERN vs. JIM BRUNZELL
"Chaos in this contest if you want to even call it, as Henning refused to leave the ringside area because of his elimination as Severn made his way to the ring he and Henning had a momentary stare down, the official made sure Severn got in the ring before anything happened between the two and as Jim Brunzell made his way to the ring Henning smashed his rival with a wooden chair that was under the ring seeming knocking him out and tossed him back in the ring were Severn applied a choke hold and the official quickly stopped the match...Severn weather you agree with it or not will face Jim Londos in the Finals of Bracket B."

SEMI-FINAL RESULTS

FRANK GOTCH vs. MR. SAITO
"You could argue this ended up being the match of the entire tournament over 25 minutes real time of back and fourth pure wrestling. Two times Saito escaped the full brunt of Gotch's Toehold Finisher and as Frank was going for a third time that would have for sure gave him the victory, Saito escaped before it was fully applied and with the Godfathers of Japan watching once again from ring side and took Gotch by surprise connecting with his SAITO SUPLEX Finisher for a second time in which Gotch landed hard on the back of his head.

The Japan legend quickly saw the opening and finally was able to put his opponent away via the sleeper hold as Gotch passed out as his arm fell three times in the center of the ring..to send Mr. Saito to the finals!"

JIM LONDOS vs. DAN SEVERN

"A handshake to begin the match between the two in a show of great respect, however it did not take long till the competitiveness took over for both men and this was a very heated and intense encounter by the end. Severn really dominated early on with a MMA mat based approach with a lot of take downs especally with his heel hook.

Londos would withstand it and eventually counter with a head lock throw and then applying his sleeper grip but Severn would reach the ropes for a break, where as they got back to a vertical base Severn would get the quick advantage again thanks to a fireman's carry take down right into a choke hold right in the center of the ring to get the victory and make his way to the finals to meet Mr. Saito!"

#ONE CONTENDERS TAG TEAM MATCH

BLOOD, SWEAT & BEERS vs. CHRIS CANDIDO & KING KONG BUNDY
"A slobber-knocker of a match, a lot of people believe that Bundy amd Candido should automatically be the first in line for a Midwest Tag Title shot after their brutal victory over Ox Baker and the Missing Link in the ONE SHALL STAND/ONE SHALL FALL Exile Match, but alas here we are as they went to the extreme against the returnong Sandman and Duggan.

All over the arena which saw blood being spilled by Candido and Duggan losing a couple of teeth..this match was not very long but brutal in the end Candido got the best of Sandman via a top rope Hurcanrana dropping the ECW Icon right on his head for the victory."

SWEET SCIENCE 16 TOURNAMENT
FINALS

DAN SEVERN vs. MR. SAITO

"It comes down to this, and what a match these two gladiators of the combat sports world went at it for a little over 18 minutes with no one fully getting an all out advantage for a long period of time. There was a 2-3 minute span were the two stood exhausted in the middle of the ring and traded vicious chop after vicious chops!

This is where Saito got the only extended advantage for either man in the match and he took full advantage connecting with a thrust punch to the heart taking Severn right down which went right into the prison death lock in the center of the ring in which after a moment or two struggling in the center of the ring the MMA legend Severn tapped out!

In celebration Mr. Saito your 2010 SWEET SCIENCE 16 Tournament winner is joined in the ring by Midwest Champion Rikidozan and Midwest Tag Team Champions Giant Baba and Antonio Inoki as streamers fill the ring to end the show"
