Minoru Suzuki vs. Matt Tremont.
Two very different tough guys from two very distinct styles. Vegas loved singing their theme songs. They went right after each other, taking headbutts and strikes to the other. Suzuki chopped away at him but Tremont sent him to the floor with a leaping tackle. They battled on the floor. Tremont went for a headbutt but Suzuki escaped and Tremont met the ring post. OOF. Tremont was bleeding. Suzuki worked him over but Matt was defiant. He came back with a DVDR for a two count. Suzuki escaped another and drilled him with a hard strike, then cinched in a sleeper. The referee kept getting shoved away to the point Suzuki had enough and hit HIM with a Gotch Piledriver. Tremont and Minoru brawled as the other officials came out. The crowd hated the idea of the match being halted. They just want to see fighting. Officials were getting abused. Suzuki had a sick smile on his face. They brawled towards the back and were finally separated. Fun chaos until the end.
They ran a video package on Joey Janela vs. Sabu.
JCW Champion Masha Slamovich vs. Suzu Suzuki
Real good action from the start. Masha showed her usual intensity. Suzuki nailed a stunner and a series of kicks. Masha fired back with her own. Suzuki showed some fire with her suplexes and headbutts. Masha got the win. Solid. They showed respect to each other.
Gabe Kidd vs. Mance Warner.
In the words of Clubber Lang, I predict PAIN. They just began beating the crap out of each other. Mancer had the old crimson mask after being drilled in the forehead. Kidd was in control until being lowblowed. No babies tonight. Chairs tossed in the ring Terry Funk style by Mancer. He used a screwdriver to work over Kidd and rip at his head. They sure are playing it safe tonight. They face each other in chairs and battle away until Kidd bites his forehead. Mance was slammed across the chairs. Very scientific, technical stuff, like Lou Thesz used to do! Kidd was put through a door. They battled back and forth until Mancer nailed a lariat for a close two count. Mance bridged a door across several chairs. He nailed a piledriver off the ropes.
Senior Scramble Match: Damian 666 vs. Robert Gibson vs. Ricky Morton vs. The Warlord vs. George South vs. Mike Jackson
Everyone got huge pops and the audience was happy to see this. After a minute or so, Kerry Morton came out and ripped on everyone. He got great heat cursing everyone out. He complained about not having a spot because of all these old guys. He ripped everyone by name one by one. Morton showed some great charisma here. The last person he knocked was hit own father. Robert Gibson nailed Kerry with a chair and tossed him into the ring, where all his seniors beat him down. The crowd loved this. They LOST THEIR MINDS for the Mike Jackson rope walk. Ricky hit a Canadian Destroyer on his own son. Gibson tossed some chairs into the ring. They all powerbombed Kerry through a bridged door and pinned him together. The crowd chanted "Rock N' Roll."
Kerry Morton was announced as the loser.
Your winners, The Seniors!
They played Jackson's theme Sweet Home Alabama to close it out.
I loved EVERY SINGLE THING ABOUT THIS. It was just putting over some legitimately great talents and letting Kerry be his asshole heel self, and it was pitch perfect.
