JUST WRESTLING
BATTLE FOR TRADITION CHAMPIONSHIP TOURNAMENT
March 20th, 2023

OPENING ROUND RESULTS


MIKE BAILEY defeated JEREMY WYATT
VICTORY BY: Ultimo Weapon FINISHER (3rd time in the match)
TIME OF MATCH: 17 Minutes 55 Seconds
NOTES: "The crowd was not with Jeremy Wyatt at all, a lot of feeling backstage is why he had an oppertunity to be in this Tournament when he has not wrestled for the promotion prior, where there is talent that has and did not have the opportunity. Regardless a tremendous match between these two, at one point Bailey was in big trouble as Wyatt had his KC Crossface submission in and as the official raised Mikes arm down for the third time it fell right on the ropes for the break!

Wyatt was furious with the decision to break the hold, as Bailey made a comeback and get the victory! After the match Wyatt went right after the official which included some very heated words, the crowd would start throwing litter in the ring and chant for Wyatt to get out of the ring. Jeremey would eventually but not before he flipped everyone off, security would need to be called down to escort him out of the building."

JEFF COBB (Don Muraco in his corner) defeated WILLIE MACK (Rich Swann in his corner)
VICTORY BY: Tour of the Islands FINISHER
TIME OF MATCH: 10 Minutes 1 Seconds
NOTES: "A true hoss fight between these two, stiff shots throughout. Cobb not only survived a rip tire cannonball early on the match but also Mack's Six Star Frog Splash Finisher! The two wouuld go at outside of the ring, were Muraco seemed like he wanted to get involved but was cut off by Rich Swann! The two would continue to brawl as Mack got the better of it and hit Cobb with his stunner FINISHER! Mack got Cobb in the ring but Jeff would kick out right before the three count!

Cobb would recover and go on the offense and really blitz Mack with 2 consecutive F-5000 which led to the finish."

DAN SEVERN defeated CALVIN TANKERMAN
VICTORY BY: Bow & Arrow
TIME OF MATCH: 19 Minutes 28 Seconds
NOTES: "Many dubbed this the match of the first round and Calvin Tankerman 's despite the loss proving he belongs in the ring with the best. The Indiana native had the MMA legend what seemed to be dead to rights on several occasions of the match, Severn was busted open during the later stages which seemed to kick start him into another level, and was able to put his young opponent away with a submission but it should be noted that Calvin in fact passed out and the official called for the bell"

JONATHAN GRESHAM defeated ROBBIE EAGLES
VICTORY BY: Octopus Stretch FINISHER
TIME OF MATCH: 16 Minutes 20 Seconds
NOTES: "A wrestling masterpiece between these two which garnered "This is WRESTLING chants from the crowd, rightfully so. Neither really had a sustained offense in this match but boy the counter wrestling by both was top notch, with several near falls and submissions had by both. In the end a German suplex bridge dropped Robbie on the back of his head, he immediately rolled out of the ring where the ringside physician went over to check on him, but Eagles refused the assistance got back in the ring right into the finish. After the match the two shook hands but you could tell Eagles was disappointed as he was helped to the back by the medical staff to end the show"

SEMI-FINAL RESULTS

JEFF COBB (w/ Don Muraco in his corner) defeated MIKE BAILEY
VICTORY BY: Athletic Plex
TIME OF MATCH: 10 Minutes 29 Seconds
NOTES: "Got to say Mike Bailey almost had the match won in the very first minute or so after connecting with his ultimo weapon FINISHER but Muraco distracted the official enough before he went for the count! Cobb would recover and start tossing Mike around the ring but boy did Bailey fight back with kicks and strikes a plenty. Jeff would respond with two consecutive Tour of the Islands FINISHERS but again Bailey would escape the three count. Cobb however would not let up and eventually get the victory to punch his ticket to the finals."

DAN SEVERN defeated JONATHAN GRESHAM
VICTORY BY: Tombstone Piledriver
TIME OF MATCH: 18 Minutes 52 Seconds
NOTES: "A technical masterpiece that went back and fourth, that eventually the MMA legend would have to stray away from trying to submit one of the true best grapplers in the game today, because no matter how many armbars, no matter how many stretch combinations, no matter how many choke holds, Jonathan Gresham would not submit or tap. Severn did change course despite suffering a shoulder injury half way through the contest and was able to drop Gresham on his head for the hard fought victory that could have gone either way. Dan Severn heads to the FINALS"

BOUND BY TRADITION TAG TEAM CHAMPIONSHIP MATCH
AUSSIE OPEN (Mark Davis & Kyle Fletcher) defeated (C) DAVEY BOY SMITH JR. & BRIAN PILLMAN JR.
VICTORY BY: Fidgett Spinner FINISHER on Pillman Jr.
TIME OF MATCH: 11 Minutes 56 Seconds
NOTES: "The long awaited rematch finally takes place and Aussie Open regains the titles as history has been made, Davis and Fletcher really cornered Pillman throughout the match and worked him over, despite a huge offensive flurry by Davey Boy Jr. it just wasn't enough, as the tag team expertise of the Aussies came through in a big way to become two-time champions."

BATTLE FOR TRADITION CHAMPIONSHIP TOURNAMENT
FINALS

DAN SEVERN defeated JEFF COBB (w/ Don Muraco in his corner)
VICTORY BY: pinning combination when Cobb came off the ropes!
TIME OF MATCH: 15 Minutes 59 Seconds
NOTES: "An unbelievable contest as the aged MMA legend came into this match with a heavily bandaged shoulder thanks to the prior match up, Cobb would end up giving up his blood, aweat and tears to only within inches away from becoming champion in this back and fourth classic and how Severn was able to hold Cobb down juat enough for it to end like it did, shocking! After all the punishment by both men to each other, the submissions, the strong style stiffness throughout the match, truly one that will go down in the history books for sure."

MORE THAN JUST MANIA: Night One
April 3rd 2023

The newly crowned BATTLE FOR TRADITION Champion, Dan Severn is shown on camera, coming from the backstage area and sitting in the front row, wearing a suit, with the title over his shoulder to a mixed reaction from the crowd, he did sign a few autographs before focusing in on the show.

CALVIN TANKMAN defeated DAVEY BOY SMITH JR.
VICTORY BY: Tankman Driver FINISHER
TIME OF MATCH: 16 Minutes 9 Seconds
NOTES:" A hoss fight to kick off the show that did not disappoint, heavy hits by both men but an unfortunate turn of events for Submission 16 Tournament winner as it seemed that he severely hurt his knee when he landed outside of the ring after getting tossed by Tankman. The official went to put the X signal to the back up but Jr. stopped him from doing so and crawled back in the ring where Calvin finished the match. Brian Pillman Jr. alongf with medical came rushing to the ring after the three count to assist Davey Jr. to the back.

Pillman was screaming at the ref and bad-mouthing Tankman who just shrugged him off as he went to the back"

MIKE BAILEY defeated ROBBIE EAGLES
VICTORY BY: Triangle Choke Submission
TIME OF THE MATCH: 15 Minutes 9 Seconds
NOTES: "An outstanding fast paced, technical match that both athletes had several opportunities to take the victory. Bailey started out strong but got caught by Eagles who hit his Sniper of the Skies FINISHER but it was not enough to keep the former X-Division champion down and apparently it wasn't enough when Eagles hit his pulse drop 2k18 either!

Eagles perhaps getting frustrated went for broke with a high-risk top rope move but instead got caught coming down into a triangle choke by Bailey which after a few moments of trying to reach the ropes unsuccessfully Eagles passed out and the official called to end the match. After the match Bailey at first would not let go of the hold, this brought down KYLE FLETCHER and MARK DAVIS, which brough out VEDA SCOTT to convince Bailey to release the hold>

After a stare down with the BOUND BY TRADITION Tag Team Champions, Bailey left the ring with Veda!"

When suddenly the arena went dark.....after a few moments THE KINGS OF THE BLACK THRONE (Brody King & Tommy End) attacked the Tag Champions in the ring to start the main event of Night One

BOUND BY TRADITION TAG TEAM CHAMPIONSHIP MATCH
(C) AUSSIE OPEN (Kyle Fletcher & Mark Davis) defeated KINGS OF THE BLACK THRONE (Tommy End & Brody King)
VICTORY BY: Fidget Spinner FINISHER on Tommy End
TIME OF MATCH: 12 Minutes 13 Seconds
NOTES:"Despite the attack before the bell by the kings, the Champions were not only able to withstand the early onslaught but fight back in a big way to retain their titles, Kyle and Tommy went to war against each other with stiff kicks and strikes but the turning point was when Brody went for broke against Davis and Mark literally knocked him out with a stiff right hand. That enabled the double team finish on End"

BEFORE THE END OF NIGHT ONE OF THE TOUR ........The Battle for Tradition Champion, Dan Severn addressed the crowd. The Beast stated that he would be a fighting champion, he knows that Jonathan Gresham who is here tonight, and Jeff Cobb who is currently on his way back to Japan BOTH deserve shots at this championship and that they will recieve them as long as he (Severn) is the champion, BUT Severn explains that he wants to start out his title reign a little different, usually someone emerges and challenges the champion, NOT IN THIS CASE!

For Severn's first title defense as Champion, he will call out a challenger! MARK BRISCOE do you accept a chance to win this championship at the main event of this tour?

Tommy End and Brody King are no slouches, so a good defence there for Aussie Open. Love that they are getting some major use across numerous feds on the board at the moment
