PWI Report 12/1/07
Sunshine Pro Wrestling Orlando, Florida
1) Cowboy Bob Orton defeated Cousin Luke with a Piledriver. 2) Steve Corino defeated Koko B. Ware with the OLD SCHOOL EXPULSION. 3) Ox Baker defeated Red Bastien with the HEART PUNCH. 4) Jimmy Snuka defeated The Destroyer with the SUPERFLY LEAP. 5) The James Gang, Boogie Woogie Man & The Crusher defeated Don Leo Jonathan, Angelo Mosca & The Midnight Express in a Survivor Series match. 5a) Don Leo Jonathan eliminated Kip James with a Power Slam. 5b) Boogie Woogie Man eliminated Bobby Eaton with a Neckbreaker. 5c) The Crusher eliminated Angelo Mosca with the BOLO PUNCH. 5d) The Crusher eliminated Don Leo Jonathan with the BOLO PUNCH. 5e) Boogie Woogie Man eliminated Stan Lane with a Wind-Up Elbow Drop. 6) Don Muraco defeated Danny Hodge with the HAWAIIAN HAMMER.
Danny Hodge failed to get a third major win in a row tonight. After defeating Mil Masceras and Nick Bockwinkel, Hodge was on fire and had gained a large following. Don Muraco spoiled the party and defeated Hodge after a long and gritty battle. Muraco kicked out of the OKLAHOMA SIDE ROLL that put away Hodge's previous opponents. He fought back and won with the HAWAIIAN HAMMER. Hodge was still given a positive response from the crowd after the match.
The semi-ain event was an 8 Man Survivor Series match. On one side was the odd pairing of The James Gang, Boogie Woogie Man & The Crusher. Their opponents were Don Leo Jonathan, Angelo Mosca & the SPW Tag Team champions The Midnight Express. The result was surprisingly one-sided as B.G. James, Boogie Woogie Man & The Crusher survived. The Crusher & Boogie Woogie Man were the strongest on their team, both eliminating two wrestlers each. Kip James, the only man liminted from his team, did not look too upset after the match. He spent his free time chatting up the female fans in attendance instead.
Wild Wild West Victoria, Texas
1) "Million Dollar Man" Ted DiBiasie & "Ravishing" Rick Rude defeated Danny Doring & Chris Candido when Rick Rude used a Suplex on Danny Doring. 2) Diamond Dallas Page defeated Justin Credible with a Backslide Pin. 3) Masked Superstar defeated King Kong Bundy with a Sleeper Hold. 4) Pepper Gomez defeated Larry Zybysko with the MEXICAN CRADLE. 5) Hacksaw Jim Duggan defeated Killer Kowalski with a Piledriver. 6) The Sandman defeated Bruiser Brody in a Last Man Standing match with the HARDCORE DDT onto a steel chair. 7) George Hackenschmidt defeated Iron Sheik with the RUSSIAN BEAR HUG.
Wild wild West had a good turnout for their latest show, headlined by Russia's George Hackenschmidt and Iran's Iron Sheik. Before the match, Iron Sheik grabbed the mic and promised to show why "Iran number 1 in world!" Things didn't plan out that way as he was submitted with the RUSSIAN BEARHUG. Afterwards, Hackenschmidt thanked the fans for attending the show.
Wild Wild West lived up to it's name with the penultimate match of the show. The Sandman and Bruiser Brody beat each other senseless in a Last Man Standing match. Both men felt comfortable in this kind of atmosphere. Steel chairs, table, chains and other objects came into effect at every given opportunity. Brody used his JUMPING KNEE DROP twice, the second one put The Sandman through a table. On the other hand, The Sandman snapped his SINGAPORE CANE over Brody's back. It took The Sandman to set up a chair and give Brody the HARDCORE DDT onto it to keep him down for the 10 count. The Sandman slumped into the turnbuckle after the match. Both men clearly needed immidiate medical attention and were both brought to the hospital (in seperate ambulances of course).
Before their match, Pepper Gomez used his iron stomach to put Larry Zybysko out of his gameplan. Zybysko tried to hurt Gomez's stomach with all of his might and wound up exhausting himself. After Gomez's victory, Zybysko was no doubt frustrated that he was outsmarted by his opponent.

Power Pride Pro, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania
1) The Sheik defeated Buddy Rogers with the FIREBALL. 2) Tom Pritchard defeated The Mountie with a Diving Elbow. 3) Fritz Von Georing defeated Greg Valentine with the BACKBREAKER. 4) Mil Mascaras defeated The Missing Link with the CROSSBODY ATTACK. 5) The Road Warriors defeated The Vachons when Hawk pinned Mad Dog after the DOOMSDAY DEVICE. 6) Gorgeous George & Playboy Buddy Rose defeated Johnny Valentine & Johnny Valiant when George submitted Valiant with the SPINNING TOE HOLD. 7) Bobo Brazil defeated Harley Race by countout in a 3P Heavyweight title match. Harley Race retains the championship.
The 3P Heavyweight championship was on the line tonight as Harley Race defended the title against Bobo Brazil. Bobo was clearly prepared for the opportunity as he stood toe to toe with the champion. He could not put Race away and that came close to costing him the match. Unfortunately, the match ended in a countout as Race was whipped over the barrier and could not make it back in time. Race kept the championship but the fans were left upset with the result, wanting to see Brazil to take the gold. Brazil can always get a rematch but he will have to wait. Harley Race is scheduled to take on Youssuf Ishmaelo in the next Power Pride Pro event and he is expected to defend the title against the No. 1 contender, Buddy Rogers.
Speaking of Rogers, he might not be able to make his title match in one piece. He opened the show against The Sheik in all his violent glory. Rogers tried to outclass his opponent in the wrestling department but he could not get past The Sheik's aggressive style. Even worse was when The sheik let loose his dreaded FIREBALL when the official was knocked out. Rogers couldn't last after that and was rushed to a nearby hospital immediately after the match.
The pretty boy team of Gorgeous George & Playboy Buddy Rose were impressive in their match against Johnny Valentine & Johnny Valiant. The team looked to be on the same page throughout the match as their opponents proved to be easy competition. Rose kept Valentine from entering the ring as Valiant tapped out to the SPINNING TOE HOLD.
One match on this night proved to be a big styles clash. Lucha legend Mil Mascaras travelled up to Philly and was faced against The Missing Link. The odd matchup was entertaining but turned serious as The Missing Link tried to rip off Mil's mask with his teeth! Mascaras escaped from this and soon won with an impressive CROSSBODY ATTACK which took the bizarre being off of his feet.

Montreal Excitement had determined the No. 1 Contender for the Montreal Heavyweight title on this show. Killer Kowalski had little trouble defeating Larry Zybysko to obtain the title shot. He will face The Destroyer at the next ME event for the belt.
The other big story coming out of this show was the first appearances of HUNTER wrestlers Tiger Mask & Jushin 'Thunder' Lyger in their North American tour. In preparation for the upcoming Best Of American Super Juniors tournament. Their tour did not go off to a great start as they lost to The Midnight Express in a hot match. Two two Puro stars will make it to the next Madison Square Glory show before the tournament begins.
Sunshine Pro Wrestling Orlando, Florida
1) Justin Credible & Steve Corino defeated The Killer Bees when Credible used the SINGAPORE CANE on Jim Brunzell. 2) Don Leo Jonathan defeated The Sandman by DQ when The Sandman used the SINGAPORE CANE. 3) The Destroyer defeated Playboy Buddy Rose with an Intelligent Sleeper Hold. 4) Pepper Gomez defeated Hacksaw Jim Duggan with the MEXICAN CRADLE. 5) Nick Bockwinkel defeated Sabu with the FIGURE FOUR LEGLOCK. 6) Don Muraco & Cowboy Bob Orton defeated Mil Mascaras & Bobo Brazil when Muraco pinned Mascaras after the HAWAIIAN HAMMER.
Orlando was the site of a special attraction match today as one of the top tag teams in Major League Wrestling made an appearance at the main event. Mil Mascaras & Bobo Brazil, ptherwise known as The Brothers Of Other Mothers, are two time winners of the Sammartino Invitational. Tonight they faced the duo of Don Muraco & Cowboy Bob Orton. BOOM were loudly cheered in this match but it was a rough night for them. The match lasted over half an hour with all four men exhausted by the end. Eventually, Orton managed to hold back Brazil long enough for Muraco to beat Mascaras with the HAWAIIAN HAMMER.
Before the main event, however was a classic clash of styles. The Homicidal, Suicidal, Genocidal Sabu brought the carnage to Nick Bockwinkel. Unfortunately for Sabu, Bockwinkel dodged many of his aerial attacks, which wore him down quickly. When Bockwinkel slapped on the FIGURE FOUR LEGLOCK Sabu had no chance to escape. Sabu passed out from the pain and the ref had to call for the bell.
Pepper Gomez once again demonstrated his iron stomach, this time to Hacksaw Jim Duggan. Jim Duggan's 2x4 proved useless as it was smashed full force into Gomez's stomach. Gomez showed no pain, leaving Duggan puzzled. In the match itself, Gomez used his Criss Cross Smash to set up the MEXICAN CRADLE.

PWI Report 1/22/08
Power Pride Pro Chicago, Illinois
1) "Ravishing" Rick Rude defeated Red bastien with a Swinging Neckbreaker. 2) The Masked Superstar defeated Ox Baker with a Swinging Neckbreaker. 3) Gorgeous George defeated Diamond Dallas Page with a Small Package. 4) Frank Gotch & George Hackenschmidt defeated The James Gang when Gotch submitted Kip James with the GOTCH TOEHOLD. 5) Jimmy Snuka defeated Buddy Rogers with a Knee Drop. 6) King Kong Bundy defeated Danny Hodge with a Backbreaker. 7) The Road Warriors defeated The Mongols when Hawk pinned Beepo after a Spike Piledriver. 8) Youssuf Ishmaelo defeated Harley Race in a Non-Title match when Race was disqualified for using a steel chair.
Harley Race's championship woes continue as he loses his third straight match in Power Pride Pro. This time he was disqualified when he used a steel chair in a desperate attack on the "Terrible Turk" Youssuf Ishmaelo. The fans are now losing faith in their champion as he has previously lost to Buddy Rogers in a Non-Title affair, and to Bobo Brazil by a countout. There are now three different contenders for the 3P title. It will most liekly be Buddy Rogers who is next in line, but with Brazil and now Ishmaelo wanting a second shot anything could happen.
Elsewhere, The Road Warriors continue to show their dominance in the Tag Team division. The Mongols gave them a fight but it was not enough to take down Hawk & Animal. 3P does not have a Tag Team championship at the moment, but it is pretty clear who the champions would be if they did exist.
In other Tag Team action, The James Gang were once again going about causing trouble. They did not show much respect towards their opponents Frank Gotch & George Hackenschmidt. The four approached for a handshake only for Kip & B.G. to step back and deliver crotch chops to the opposing team. They paid for their attitude as Gotch outclassed Kip James and made him tapout to the GOTCH TOEHOLD.
Danny Hodge has made waves throughout America as a Light Heavyweight wrestler who can go with the best of Heavyweights. Well, they don't come much bigger than King Kong Bundy. Hodge showed some heart standing up to the man mountain but it didn't lead to a win. Bundy finished off Hodge with a Backbreaker.
The last time Buddy Rogers appeared in 3P he suffered a horrendous FIREBALL attack from The Sheik. Rogers tried his best to skip this show but was under contract to appear and take on "Superfly" Jimmy Snuka. Rogers claimed he was still horribly burned but other than a few plasters he looked all right. It was an enven match between two great wrestlers. Snuka ended it with a tactical Knee Drop to Rogers' injured face. Roger scurried out of thr ring with his hands covering his face as Snuka celebrated. Maybe he was still burned after all. Still, he's up for a title shot soon so he will have to recover for that.

PWI Report 2/2/08
Madison Square Glory, Brooklyn, New York
1) Gorgeous George defeated Cousin Luke with the FIGURE FOUR LEGLOCK. 2) The Masked Superstar defeated Don Leo Jonathan by DQ when Jonathan used a steel chair. 3) Jushin Lyger defeated Red Bastien with the BRAINBUSTER. 4) Chris Candido defeated Tiger Mask with the BLONDE BOMB. 5) The Crusher defeated The Sheik with Power Forearms. 6) Iron Sheik defeated Boogie Woogie Man with the CAMEL CLUTCH. 7) The Midnight Express defeated The Road Warriors in an MSG Tag Team Title match by DQ when Animal hit Stan Lane with one of the Tag Team title belts. 8) Nick Bockwinkel defeated Jimmy Snuka with an Abdominal Stretch to win the vacant MSG Heavyweight championship.
Madison Square Glory held a memorable night in wrestling, crowning its new Heavyweight champion and also having controversy over its Tag Team titles. Nick Bockwinkel won the belt by beating "Superfly" Jimmy Snuka in a heated contest. Snuka went wild from the opening bell, landing Headbutts and Chopping away at his opponent. Bockwinkel used the Abdominal Stretch to great effect, stopping Snuka's momentum dead. The hold was on for several minutes, wearing Snuka away. He broke free and got a nearfall with a Power Slam. Bockwinkel fought back and caught his opponent in the Abdominal Stretch again. Snuka was in agonizing pain and could not reach the ropes. Bockwinkel's submission meant that he now became the MSG Heavyweight champion.
MSG's Tag Titles were the source of controversy on the night. Champions The Road Warriors but the belts on the line against The Midnight Express in one of the biggest matches in the company to date. The match should have ended early when Animal Clotheslined Bobby Eaton out of the ring. Eaton was almost counted out until Jim Cornette jumped on the apron and interrupted the ref's count. Eaton made it back into the ring and the match continued. And what a match it was. Both teams came incredibly close to winning. Stan Lane & Bobby Eaton gave Hawk the VEG-O-MATIC but Animal stopped the pin. The Road Warriors gave both Midnight Express members a Spike Piledriver. The match broke into a brawl outside the ring. In the match's second contoversial moment, Cornette tossed Stan Lane his tennis racket. Animal ducked Lane's swing an grabbed one of the title belts. He then smacked Lane across the face with the belt. The ref saw this and disqualified the Road Warriors for that offence, much to the crowd's anger. A rematch for the titles is sure to happen down the line.
The HUNTER Junior Heavyweight tour of North America continued today with both Jushin Lyger and Tiger Mask competing in singles competition. The two matches were warmups for the upcoming Best Of American Super Juniors tournament to be held in Los Angeles. Lyger took on Red Bastien in a speedy affair. Bastien hit his signature Spinning Headscissors for a two count. Lyger turned the tables with a Rolling Koppo Kick. He continued with a Top Rope Huracanrana and finished the match with the BRAINBUSTER. Tiger Mask's match had a different result. Chris Candido got a big victory over the HPC Junior Heavyweight champion. The match was going Tiger Mask's way as he almost won twice, once with a Rolling Senton Splash and another with a Twisting Moonsault. It all went wrong when Candido dodged a Flying Plancha attempt. Tiger Mask hit the floor hard and Candido was quick to take advantage. The BLONDE BOMB was more than enough for Candido to get the 3 count. In an interview afterwards Candido said he "should be the new CASPER Lightweight champion." When he was corrected over the title's name he just shrugged and said "Whatever. There's so many of them titles in Japan." These two matches will lead to the BoASJ to be held soon.
One of the roughest and toughest matches that was held in some time also took place on this show. The Crusher fought tooth and nail with The Sheik. A Bearhug kept The Sheik in place for a period of time but it was not long until some forks came into play. The Crusher was bloodied but fought on. The Sheik twice attempted to unleash a FIREBALL but The Crusher was on hand to stop him. He eventually knocked out The Sheik with repeated Power Forearms and pinned him.
