IT TAKES 2, TO MAKE A THING GO RIGHT: Night One
February 6th, 2023

The tour begins with a very special presentation by SoCal Val who reveals the Submission 16 banner to the 2023 winner of the Tournament, Davey Boy Smith Jr., Val reveals his name stitched on the banner as it gets raised to the rafters as the crowd gives a standing ovation in appreciation.

P.N. News & KoKo B. Ware come to the ring; Ware has a microphone in hand as the show begins.....
"We want answers! News and yours truly sitting up here as a tag team, UNDEFEATED at 1-0 and we weren't even in consideration for the Bound by Tradition Tag Team Tournament??? Now ain't that some bull sh*t!"

Suddenly the Bound by Tradition Tag Team Champions, Aussie Open come to the ring and go face to face with News and Ware, both teams talking smack to one another until Kyle Fletcher motions for an official to get to the ring, which one does, and he holds the championships up! It looks as though we have a Tag Team Title match to start off the tour!

BOUND BY TRADITION TAG TEAM CHAMPIONSHIP MATCH

(C) AUSSIE OPEN defeated P.N. NEWS & KOKO B. WARE

VICTORY BY: Fidget Spinner FINISHER on P.N. News
TIME OF MATCH: 11 Minutes 27 Seconds
NOTES: "At face value a lot might think not to take seriously the team of News & Ware but they brought it to the champions and after P.N. hit his Broken Record finisher if it wasn't for Mark Davis breaking up the pin attempt, we could have very well have crowned new champions, that is how close it was. Equally as impressive was Mark Davis handled News in the latter moments of the match which led to the finisher from the champs to successfully defend their titles"

DAVEY BOY SMITH JR. & BRIAN PILLMAN JR. defeated JONATHAN GRESHAM & JAY LETHAL

VICTORY BY: Saito Suplex by Smith on Gresham
TIME OF MATCH: 16 Minutes 20 Seconds
NOTES: "One hell of a match, the two finalists from the Submission 16 Tournament went after each other but the real story was Lethal and Pillman Jr. who really tore the house down , Gresham used a double team slingshot with his ROH Foundation stable mate Lethal on Pillman for a very near fall but to the frustration of Gresham he got caught coming off the top rope right into a waiting Saito suplex by Davey Boy Smith Jr. which was just enough for the 3 count and victory."

LANCE HOYT & CHARLIE HAAS (w/ Barbie Hayden in the corner) defeated VOILENCE IS FOREVER (Dominic Garinni & Kevin Ku)

VICTORY BY: F'n Slam by Hoyt on Dominic Garinni
TIME OF MATCH: 19 Minutes 8 Seconds
NOTES: "Hell of a main event for night one of this tour, this match was demanded by both teams after the altercation that transpired at the Submission 16 Tournament. I want to tell you this was Brody/Hanson hard hitting, Kevin Ku would actually get Hoyt down in what seemed to be the closing moments of the match thanks to an unbelievable GTS BUT Dominic would tag himself into the match and climb to the top rope as Haas took out Ku, Hoyt recovered and caught Garinni coming off the top with his F'n Slam for the finish...H.H.H stood tall in the ring as the show ended"

IT TAKES 2, TO MAKE A THING GO RIGHT: Night Two
February 13th, 2023

MATT CROSS & IVELISSE defeated TJP & JESSIE MCKAY
VICTORY BY: Vertigo Kick by Ivelisse on McKay
TIME OF MATCH: 12 Minutes 5 Seconds
NOTES: "A fantastic open to the show as Matt and TJ put on a technical classic early on the match. Ivelisse got things a little more heated between the two teams giving some stiff shots to Perkins and especially McKay who fought back, Perkins and Cross would end up brawling outside of the ring as Jessie looked to finish Ivelisse via coming off the top rope but Ivelisse would catch Jessie flush with her Vertigo kick flush on the jaw as Jessie came flying off the top, knocking her out cold for the win"

BARBIE HAYDEN & CHARLIE HAAS defeated TYSON DUX & NICOLE MATTHEWS
VICTORY BY: Hayden Halo FINISHER on Tyson Dux
TIME OF MATCH: 13 Minutes 33 Seconds
NOTES: A slobber-knocker, these two teams beat the hell out of each other, and it was nothing fancy as Haas and Tyson continuously tried to submit the other, Nichole gave Barbie a nasty bloody lip but then got thrown for a loop when Hayden hit a nasty jaw breaker. Dux got a right hand by Charlier flush which turned him right into Hayden's finish for the very hard-earned victory. H.H.H minus Lance Hoyt who is touring in Japan stood victorious to the mixed reaction of the crowd

MATT CARDONA & CHELSEA GREEN defeated JONATHAN GRESHAM & JORDYNNE GRACE

VICTORY BY: Jumping Leg Lariat FINISHER on Grace
TIME OF MATCH: 13 Minutes 36 Seconds
NOTES: "Fans were into this main event and it was a hell of a debut for the Cardona's. This match went back and forth, Grace and Matt had a heated exchange in the middle of the ring, Chelsea chop blocked Jordynn in the back of the left knee leading to her husband to connect with his finisher for the victory. The Cordona's stood in the ring victorious in the middle of the ring flipping off the crowd to end the show.

February 20th, 2023

HOMICIDE & HERNANDEZ defeated WORK HORSEMEN (James Drake & Anthony Henry)
VICTORY BY: Border Toss FINISHER on Henry
TIME OF MATCH: 21 Minutes 58 Seconds
NOTES: "A hard hitting open match, huge pop for the reunited Hernandez and Homicide, Henry and Drake were not having any of it had the early advantage BUT that changed when Homicide dropped Henry with a piledriver on the ring apron! James and Hernandez busted each ither open the hard way and Homicide chpped blocked Drake. Henry tried to get back in the ring to help his partner, but Super Mex caught him in his finisher for the three count."

BRIAN PILLMAN JR. & DAVEY BOY SMITH JR. defeated JEFF COBB & DON MURACO

VICTORY BY: Dire Promise FINISHER on Muraco
TIME OF MATCH: 27 Minutes 25 Seconds
NOTES: "An absolute classic, Davey Boy Jr. (Submission 16 Tournament winner) and Jeff Cobb just went to town on one another with so many near falls on each other BUT it was Pillman and Muraco who stole the show with Pillman FINALLY getting Muraco with his finish while Cobb & Smith battled each other in the first row of people."

6 PERSON GRUDGE MATCH

JONATHAN GRESHAM & JORDYNN GRACE & JAY LETHAL defeated BRIAN MYERS & CHELSEA GREEN & MATT CARDONA

VICTORY BY: Gresham with a Sleeper on Green
TIME OF MATCH: 10 Minutes 7 Seconds
NOTES: "The Cardona's would stall for a few minutes at the beginning of the match but eventually would start the match with Matt and Grace going toe to toe in the middle of thew ring, Chelsea would attempt a roll up from behind on Grace only to get kicked in the back by Gresham, Lethal and Myers would go toe to toe outside of the ring and Jordynn would pile drive Cordona in the center of the ring! Chelseaq would attempt to try and save her husband but instead would get caught in the sleeper by Gresham to end the match to end the show, as Matt would crawl over to his wife he screamed for a stretcher for his hot wife with Brian consoling him as tears came down his face as Green laid motionless."

February 27th, 2023

HOMICIDE & HERNANDEZ defeated P.N. NEWS & KOKO B. WARE
VICTORY BY: Gringo Killer FINISHER on Ware
TIME OF MATCH: 6 Minutes 11 Seconds
NOTES: "News and Ware looked to rebound after losing their shot at the Tag Team Championships on Night One of this tour and as they came down to the ring singing and rapping to a mixed reaction of the crowd, Hernandez took out News via a suicide dive! Ware stood in shock and that led to Homicide delivering his finisher for the win."

THE HEX (Allysin Kay & Marti Belle) defeated VXT (Deonna Purrazzo & Chelsea Green)
VICTORY BY: A-K 47 on Deonna
TIME OF MATCH: 14 Minutes 5 Seconds
NOTES: "Great match up but in the end a little contaversy sd Chelsea Green connected with her unprettier FINISHER on Belle as Deonna got hit by th A-K 47 by Kay and the official counted Purrazzo shoulders down when it was actually Belle the legal member of the team that was supposed to be counted! Regardless the Hex decision stands."

DAVEY BOY SMITH JR. & BRIAN PILLMAN JR. defeated (C) AUSSIE OPEN (Kyle Fletcher & Mark Davis)

VICTORY BY: Dire Promise FINISHER on Fletcher
TIME OF MATCH: 15 Minutes 35 Seconds
NOTES: "History has been made as this classic match has brought us new champions! DBSJR. and Mark Davis just tore into each other and put each other through a table from the ring apron! Fletcher and Pillman went toe to toe with each other, Fletcher went for a splash from the top and hit nothing but canvas which led to the finish and a title change to the applause of the crowd for all four men. Aussie Open presented the Bound By Tradition Championships to Brian and Davey and shook their hands in a great show of respect to end the show"

TIMOTHY THATCHER defeated LANCE HOYT (w/ Charlie Haas & Barbie Hayden in his corner)

VICTORY BY: Kimora Lock Submission
TIME OF MATCH: 10 Minutes 11 Seconds
NOTES: "One hell of a hoss fight, in which both will feel it tomorrow morning. Hoyt tried to stay up on a vertical base and thought he had the match won after catching Thatcher with a right hand to the face into a sidewalk slam but not only did Timothy escape the pin but transitioned the match iinto a matt war and eventually got his opponent to tap out. After the match Hoyt and Haas and Hayden shook hands with Thatcher and waved goodbye to the fans before they left the ring."

JEFF COBB & DON MURACO defeated ROB VAN DAM & SABU
VICTORY BY: Two consecutive HAWIIAN HAMMER Finishers on Sabu
TIME OF MATCH: 15 Minutes 39 Seconds
NOTES: "Perhaps the biggest rivalry since the inception of this promotion by the looks of it has come to an end, in a bloody war! All four men wearing the crimson mask, but once again the most dominate team in this promotion seen by many get another victory as Muraco indeed shows everyone that indeed he still has something left in the tank getting the hard-fought victory for his team via his finisher. After the match, RVD and Sabu helped each other up stood in the ring to a standing ovation as they waved goodbye to the crowd"

JORDYNNE GRACE (Jonathan Gresham in her corner) defeated CHELSEA GREEN (Matt Cardona in her corner)

VICTORY BY: Cobra Clutch Suplex
TIME OF MATCH: 21 Minutes 49 Seconds
NOTES: "A classic between these two, who went back and forth with several near falls and had the fans on the edge of their seats. Many in attendance said that this was the match of the night. Grace withstood both Green's offense and Cordona interfering as well UNTIL Greshan took out Matt and had him tapping out screaming outside of the ring! Green delivered a low blow to Gresham and tried to get Cardona back on his feet, Grace delivered the finish dropping Green right on the back of her head and Grace wasn't done as she did the same to Cardona to the delight of the fans!

The Cardona's left the ring helping each other to stay on their feet and flipping the crowd off, as Gresham and Grace celebrating waving goodbye to them."

TIME OF MATCH: 16 Minutes 54 Seconds

Eagles was in tears after the match as he embraced Liger in a great show of respect. The fans chanted to Liger that he indeed still has it and please come back. Aussie Open also showed great respect to Liger but they did have a stare down with Pillman and Smith and motioning the titles back around their waists to end the show."

HERE & NOW: Night One

March 13th, 2023

BATTLE FOR TRADITION CHAMPIONSHIP TOURNAMENT
QUALIFYING MATCHES

ROBBIE EAGLES defeated DAVEY BOY SMITH JR. (w/ Brian Pillman Jr. in the corner)
VICTORY BY: Turbo Backpack
TIME OF MATCH: 16 Minutes 29 Seconds
NOTES: "Huge win for Eagles over the 2023 Submission 16 Tournament Champion & 1/2 of the Bound by Tradition Tag Team Champion in Smith. It should be noted it was done with a clean pin despite Pillman Jr. and eventually Aussie Open roaming around ring side, Eagles survived an early onslaught including the Bulldog Bomb FINISHER and looked as though surprised his rival with the finish to now qualify for the Battle for Tradition Championship Tournament. Davey Boy Smith Jr. will now be a part of the Last Chance Battle Royal to try to secure a spot in the Tournament."


CALVIN TANKERMAN defeated CHRIS HERO
VICTORY BY: Tankerman Driver FINISHER
TIME OF MATCH: 15 Minutes 58 Seconds
NOTES: "Hard hitting slobber-Knocker between these two throughout, Tankerman with a suicide dive to the outside Hero flush in the face smashing the back of his head into the steel guardrail was the beginning of the end for the Tradition veteran as Calvin then got him back in the ring to deliver the finish to qualify for the Championship Tournament. Hero will now join Davey Boy Smith Jr. in the Last Chance Battle Royal."


WILLIE MACK (w/ Rich Swann in his corner) defeated JEFF COBB (w/ Don Muraco in his corner)
VICTORY BY: Stunner FINISHER
TIME OF MATCH: 11 Minutes 40 Seconds
NOTES: "Considering what a role Jeff Cobb has been on since the inception of Just Wrestling he and Muraco have really become the faces of the company, so with that in mind many believed this to be a huge upset! I say don't take anything away from Mack who stood toe to toe and took a lot of punishment from Cobb and out of nowhere (sorry Randy Orton) hit his finisher to advance to the Tournament. Cobb looked totally dejected leaving the match despite Muraco trying to hype him up. A standing ovation for Mack as he and Swann celebrated in the ring."



MIKE BAILEY defeated JAKE SOMETHING

VICTORY BY: Ultima Weapon FINISHER
TIME OF MATCH: 20 Minutes 34 Seconds
NOTES: "What a match! It should be noted that the wife of Mike Bailey and manager of the longest reigning Frontier Heavyweight Champion, Jake Something VEDA SCOTT was sitting in the front row for this match. At certain points Jake would look over at Veda to possibly get involved in the match but that has not been confirmed. Back and forth these two went, you have to give so much credit to Bailey who took an unbelievable amount of punishment in this match throughout but just kept fighting back.

By the end of this masterpiece Jake Something was wearing the crimson mask, Mike would escape a Something Bomb and deliver a kick square in the jaw of Jake knocking him out on his feet which led to the Finisher for an unbelievable three count and victory. As the crowd gave a standing ovation to both men who laid exhausted in the ring, Veda did jump the railing and went in the ring to check on...Mike Bailey. CURT STALLION came from the back to check on his long-time tag team partner Jake Something.

Veda did attempt to go over to check on Jake, but Stallion was already helping him to the back as Mike Bailey got to his feet to another standing ovation, as Veda stayed in the ring clapping for him as well to end the show."

HERE & NOW: Night Two

March 14th, 2023

BATTLE FOR TRADITION CHAMPIONSHIP TOURNAMENT
QUALIFYING MATCHES

DAN "THE BEAST" SEVERN defeated TIMOTHY THATCHER
VICTORY BY: Armbar FINISHER
TIME OF MATCH: 11 Minutes 18 Seconds
NOTES: "The rivalry between these two continues, this time it was the MMA Hall of Famer who got the hard-earned victory in the end thanks to a submission finish, it should be noted that Thatcher did not tap out but instead passed out and the official made the call to end the match. Severn had a great game plan going right for the left arm and shoulder throughout the contest. Thatcher really got frustrated and went high risk and tried to deliver a shoulder tackle off the top rope which did not pay off."




JEREMY WYATT defeated TYSON DUX (w/ Nichole Matthews in the corner)
VICTORY BY: Brainbuster
TIME OF THE MATCH: 16 Minutes 2 Seconds
NOTES: "It was heavily questioned by a lot of people in the locker room, the reasoning why the promotion would add Wyatt to this match, since up till that point he never wrestled for JUST WRESTLING. Well Jeremy came out with a chip on his shoulder and went to war to prove a point against Tyson. Great match between these two veterans that could of went either way. Jeremy took the battle to the outside and smashed Dux into the steel post and tossed him back in the ring for the finish."



JONATHAN GRESHAM defeated ERICK STEVENS
VICTORY BY: Octopus Stretch FINISHER
TIME OF MATCH: 16 Minutes 6 Seconds
NOTES: "Outstanding contest, give credit to Stevens who stood toe to toe with who many might say the best pure wrestler on the planet right now. Everyone in the building thought Erick had the match won after his SARASOTA SCREWDRIVER Finisher BUT the Octopus escaped right before the three count came down.
Back and forth they went until Stevens went for a splash in the corner and as Jonathan moved Erick smashed his head on the steel post busting his forehead open, Gresham went in for the kill and got the submission victory via his finisher."

LAST CHANCE OVER THE TOP ROPE BATTLE ROYAL

ORDER OF ELIMINATION

1. ERICK STEVENS (BY: Jeff Cobb * Give credit to Stevens who refused medical attention until after the battle royal, showing real toughness with blood just pouring down his face. He would receive 12 stiches on his forehead after the match*)

3.TYSON DUX (BY: Jake Something)

4.DAVEY BOY SMITH JR. (BY: Jake Something)
