NJPW WK 13 Chris Jericho Vs Tetsuya Naito Highlights HD 04 January 2019

Tetsuya Naito Beats Chris Jericho to Win IWGP Intercontinental Title at WK 13 Tetsuya Naito beat Chris Jericho at New Japan Pro-Wrestling's Wrestle Kingdom 13 at the Tokyo Dome on Friday to become IWGP intercontinental champion for the third time. With the win, Naito has the second-most IWGP Intercontinental title reigns in New Japan history behind only Shinsuke Nakamura's five. Friday's match between Naito and Jericho was a rematch of their bout at Dominion in June, which saw Jericho beat Naito for the title. The feud between Naito and Jericho dates back to New Year Dash!! in January 2018, when Jericho attacked the Los Ingobernables de Japon member. Naito went on to beat Minoru Suzuki for the IWGP Heavyweight Championship, which led to the highly anticipated title match against Jericho. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=semOWukNFDI

Atlanta Wrestling Entertainment Show of the Year Report from Jonesboro -- December 27
AWE presents Show of the Year 5
Furnance 41, Jonesboro, Ga
It's been a while since I've been in a nightclub and first time going to an AWE event. Right now I'm guessing the crowd to be around 60, how many of those are paid, I couldn't guess. 11 matches are on tap for tonight, let's see how long the battery will last!
William Huckaby v Owen Knight for the Georgia Heritage Title
The crowd seems split between the two men but I think the Huck is getting more cheers. Owen dodges the tie up and hits Huck with a right. Owen trying to use his quickness to avoid the power of Huck. Huck hits some power moves and a monstrous chop that echoes around the building. Owen tries a springboard but Huck catches him and suplexes Owen. Both men exhibiting heelish tendencies. Another monstrous chop by Huck, the crowd calls for another chop and Huck delivers. Lots of mouthing off happening, this is definitely an adult show. Owen converts a power move by Huck into a DDT, both men down. Strikes being handed out liberally. Owen gets a 2 count. Huck eats 2 superkicks and a codebreaker for a 2 count. Huck hits a Spicoli Driver and then a powerbomb for the 3 count. Time 9:45. Huck wins the title. Huck stands above Owen crowing about the victory but Owen hits a low blow on Huck. Owen mouths off on Huck and spits on him. Grade it a B. A decent opening match to start the show with.
Adrian Amour and Blacklist Uno come out. Uno's in civies and says that Slade Porter is a bitch and that Slade won't be here. Gets to Supreme leader business. Changed the name to Combat Entertainment. Offers an open opportunity for someone to join the roster. King Bailey Blake comes out in a white rapper gimmick. Bailey says that he has some mad bars to drop. He teases but doesn't drop anything. Lamar Diggs comes out to answer the challenge. Uno calls him Day's houseboy, he says he could have used a different word than boy.
"King" Bailey Blake v Lamar Diggs
Diggs charges but Bailey dodges out of the way and Diggs gets rolled up for the 3 count. Time: 24. Wow, that was quick. More words exchanged
Hunter Law v Chris Crunkk
Law is rocking a Vega from Streetfighter vibe minus the mask and hand claws. The action goes to the outside for a cup of coffee and then back inside. The crowd is def behind Crunkk. Law hits a superkick and sends Crunkk to the outside. Law drags him back in and hits a jumping dropkick to the back of Crunkk's head. Law hits another dropkick for a 2 count. Law mouths off to the crowd and eats a kick from Crunkk. Both men down. A flurry of offense gets a 2 count for Crunkk. Law counters with moves of his own for a near fall. Law stomping the mat ala Shawn Micheals to set up a superkick but Crunk was waiting on him. Near fall on Law. A series of counter moves leads to a pin on Crunkk with Law holding onto the ropes. Time 7:19. More of a technical matchup than the first match. Lots of twists and turns. Grade A-. The crowd chants You got F$%^ in support of Crunkk.
CB Suave v DeAndre Jackson
CB does his signature hip swivel and gets DeAndre to charge in. DeAndre is a big boy and CB will need his quickness to counter the size and strength of DeAndre. The strategy was working until CB went up top and landed onto DeAndre's fist. DeAndre's methodical power moves are wearing down CB. DeAndre catches CB in mid-air and tosses CB over his head. DeAndre teases a cover but locks in a nerve hold. CB gets out and lands several kicks to bring DeAndre to his knees. CB locks in a sleeper. CB releases it to lands several corner dropkicks but DeAndre catches him on the third attempt. DeAndre goes up for a Vader bomb but CB powerbombs DeAndre for a 2 count. CB lands a vicious kick to the head of DeAndre for the 3 count. Time 8:20. Interesting match up but can only give it a B.
Ruthless LaLa vs Aria Blake (Queen of the Hierarchy)
Uno's back on the mic. Calls LaLa Harambe. He really lays into LaLa. Says that you don't want to mess with the 2 finger salute. LaLa turns around and into a lariat by Armour and Aria Blake pins LaLa. Time was less than 5 seconds.
ACH v Joe Black for the Georgia Wrestling Crown championship
Dueling corner tie-ups to start with. The match is a ground-based showcase, to begin with, and the crowd is appreciative of it. Holds and counters for the first 5 minutes. Action picking up now with Joe gaining the advantage. A couple of monster chops by Joe. ACH counters and gets Joe in a headlock to slow the pace back down. Joe gets a belly to back in and ACH is out of the ring. Joe follows. Back in the ring, Joe hits a backbreaker for a near fall. Another belly to back leaves ACH in agony. The action goes back out of the ring, Joe looking strong here. ACH is selling the back. Joe gets ACH over in a suplex for a 2 count. ACH trying to fight back. Chop block into a curb stomp into a kick to the head almost gets ACH the win. ACH trying to suplex but Joe blocks and they trade off trying to suplex each other. Joe is no selling ACH's chops.ACH chops Joe for a total of 13 times. Joe hits a backstabber for a near fall. Massive lariat by Joe almost gets the pin. A series of kicks followed by a brainbuster gives ACH the win. Time 18:27. The new champ is ACH. I loved this match, it had almost everything you could want in a technical matchup. Grade: A+. ACH has the mic and says that he spent 5 years in ROH and never won anything. He thanks the fans for supporting him. Side note: a video was posted later on Facebook of ACH giving the title back to Blacklist Uno. I don't know much about ACH's character but it was very trippy
A Watts Rules match: Michael Marshall v Matt Kenway (with Lamar Diggs)
The Watts Rules stip just about forces this to be a ground-based match up. Several situations where the rules play into Marshall's favor but still a rather even matchup thus far. The crowd is watching the match but not really reacting to it. Matt wants to do a piledriver but Diggs stops him. The ref tries to get Diggs off the apron and Marshall gets Matt into the piledriver for the win. Time 7:06. Have to give it a C, the crowd didn't know what to make of this match.
Adrian Amour (with Blacklist Uno) v Bshp King in a Combat Entertainment exhibition match
I couldn't understand Uno's promo on why this is an exhibition match. Both men avoiding strikes in the early going but that soon changes. Heavy blows being landed by both men. Action to the outside. More heavy blows being exchanged and some words as well. Back in the ring, both men are showing some wear and tear. I've noticed Aria Blake up on the stage. No clear advantage by either man. King hits a Spicoli driver for a near fall. King leaves the ring area and brings his timberlands boots with him. Blake attacks King while Stan is checking on Amour. Amour levels King with a lariat off the distraction for the win. Time 10:48. Grade B. Nasty Man Leroy from 1Fall Power Factory gets up on the ring apron and has words with Armour. Amour tells LeRoy to get down off the apron and really lays into him verbally. King super kicks Leroy.
Fabulous Fitness v Ashton Starr and Talon
This is the comedy portion of the show. Kiki gives Talon the Twinkie saying that Talon needs the calories. Kiki and Ashton show off their butt shaking skills. Talon and Kahuna square off, Talon uses the Twinkie to distract Kahuna from making the pin attempt save. Ash and Talon have some unique double team moves. Time `10:15
Chip Day with his crew #dayway (Sylar Cross, Lamar Diggs, Matt Kenway, and Degetz More Bundlez) v Eddie Kingston in a Lumberjack match.
Kingston all over Day in the early going but Day manages to get King out of the ring on the heel jacks side. Day in control. Kingston manages to get Day out of the ring but the other jacks don't do anything. Sylar cross comes in and blindsides Kingston. Kingston favoring the right arm. Near fall on Kingston. Kingston on the comeback. Near fall. Day comeback, near fall. Day hits double knees from the top rope for a near fall. Kingston catches Day up on the turnbuckle Chop fest up on top. Superplex by Kingston and both men down. Kingston nails a swinging backhand for the win. Time about 10 minutes. The crowd gives Kingston a standing "O". Kingston on the mic. Puts over Combat Ent.
Dog collar match: Nick Iggy v Kerry Awful
Iggy is dressed in a black button-down shirt and black slacks and says that he's dressed for a funeral. Awful tosses a couple of chairs into the ring. Both men sit down in the chairs and jaw at each other and start punching. They trade moves and the chain comes into play with Awful swinging the chain across Iggy's back. Action to the outside. they are laying waste to the tables and chairs. Awful eats the ring post. They head up to the stage area. Awful shoves an umbrella into Iggy's nether regions. Iggy backdrops Awful onto the stage. they move back to the ring area and Awful grabs a chair and smacks Iggy with it. Awful sets Iggy up against the ring post but Iggy moves before the chair hits. Iggy wraps Awful's head in the chair and rams it into the post. Back in the ring, Iggy gets a 2 count. Iggy pulls out a bag with tacks in it and dumps them into the middle of the ring. Iggy inserts a couple of tacks into Awfuls forehead. Iggy sets Awfuls head over a chair and curb stomps Awfuls head into the chair. All the refs and Josh Wheeler come out to check on Awful, Iggy chases them off. Awful's bleeding, Iggy's got Awful in a camel clutch smile. Awful's fighting back and gets Iggy down. Iggy has a Team IOU sign and says that IOU was where it all started. Iggy low blows Awful but Awful power bombs and then piledrives Iggy into the tacks. Awful get Iggy up on the top turnbuckle. Iggy trying to fight off. Awful pile drives Iggy from the top onto the chair and tacks and picks up the win. Time 15:16 Iggy's bleeding as well. Awful has the mic. Says that he was tired over the last year. Huge promo. some crowd members are crying. Says that the circus is still open and then clobbers Iggy with the mic. Lays into Iggy calling him talentless and tells the crowd to eat his ass, guess this is really the end for the Carnies. Josh has the mic to close out the show. The crowd was super into the match. They and I were expecting total destruction and chaos and it was delivered. I don't know if Iggy and Awful with have future one on one matches but if they do, they will be hard pressed to top this one. Grade it an A+
The referees were Darryl Hall, Stan Robinson and Maxx Recon.
Having the 2 short "matches" helped bring down the running time tremendously. I had never heard of Fabulous Fitness before, they are like a cross between the BodyDonnas and the BWO. I know there's a lot of backstories to some of the matches and the AWE Koolaid crowd knows them all. It will be interesting to see what happens with the Hierarchy and #DayWay going forward, especially with Uno being the supreme leader of Combat Entertainment.

Georgia Premier Wrestling War Games Report from Canton - December 29, 2018
Georgia Premier Wrestling finished out 2018 with the company’s first ever War Games match.
In so doing, GPW pulled off one of the hottest and most surprising angles of the year.
As War Games go, the match itself was nothing special. But GPW hit pay dirt with the angle. Fans were in a state of shock after seeing GPW co-owner Darrell Morris turn against his own company. Shock turned to outrage. Morris was holed in the building for 90 minutes after the show as fans waited to confront him.
Morris and the evil Logan Chase had been at each other’s throats for months. This was the night Team Chase was going to get their comeuppance. Instead, Morris handed Team Chase the match and the night ended with co-owner “Big Wood” Greg Hullender laid out in the ring at the hands of Morris’ handpicked mystery guy.
It will be interesting to see where this angle goes moving into the new year. Who is going to run the company? What could motivate Morris, who has been a model of honor and propriety, to do such a thing?
Attendance at the Old Buffington School Gym was 275. GPW has been in the 200 range since returning to the gym so the War Games gave them a boost.
GPW isn’t going to set the world on fire with their shows. Morris and Hullender have no illusions on that score. They consistently put on solid shows that satisfy their fanbase. GPW has developed and maintained a loyal core following. The babyfaces are all over. The heels are uniformly hated. Wrestlers with strong technical fundamentals and/or superb athleticism really stand out because GPW doesn’t all that many of them. Everyone has to start somewhere, and for many young wrestlers that somewhere is GPW.
Morris and Chase opened the show with a round of verbal jousting regarding the War Games.and their respective mystery team members. Morris vowed to knock Chase’s head off if he stuck his nose in the match. Chase cast doubt on Morris’ ability to find someone to replace the injured Ray Ray and promised his side would have The Ultimate Surprise.
(1) Georgia Heat (Cody Roberts & Mr. Showtime) defeated Relenza (King Guruda & Takura) to retain the GPW tag titles in 7:35. GA Heat over big with the GPW faithful. Relenza were billed from the Land or the Rising Sun. The Aztec Empire would be closer to the truth. Takura faked an ankle injury to lure Showtime into letting down his guard. A “USA” chant ensued as Relenza got heat in Showtime. Takura received a self-inflicted hotshot when his head slipped outside the top rope. It was strange. Hot tag and right to the finish – a Michinoku Driver by Roberts followed by Showtime’s frogsplash for the pin on Garuda. This was a totally ordinary match. The work wasn’t horrible but it wasn’t crisp either.
(2) Shalandra Royal defeated Black Widow in 5:13. This was a bad match, although not a bad outing for Royal given it was only the second match of her career. Royal has appealing energy, works hard and is clearly getting good training at One Fall. She needs to do something about her hair. Widow needs to do something about her presentation, which screams low level indy. Royal threw a dropkick that never got higher than Widow’s thigh. Royal evaded Widow’s mad charge into the corner and pinned her with a schoolboy.
Postmatch - Thunder Blonde came out of the crowd and laid Royal out with a Samoan drop. Blonde cut a good promo. She needs to do something about those shorts or at least stop pulling at them. The gist of Blonde’s promo was this -- Royal was getting opportunities on a silver platter that bigger, stronger people like her were trying to earn.
Intermission
(3) “Boogie Woogie Boy” Gary Valiant & GPW Cruiserweight Champion Torque defeated Michael Stevens & “Kevin Dunn in 9:59. Valiant was billed as Jimmy’s son. He worked the crowd like crazy until he won them over. Valiant literally swept ring announcer Miss Brittany off her feet with a kiss. Valiant’s antics included sticking his finger up Dunn’s butt…twice. Hey, it popped the crowd in Canton. A 15 second exchange between Stevens and Torque provided the first glimmer of good wrestling so far tonight. Valiant took the heat. He bumped big and sold a knee injury like the pain was unbearable. “Boogie” chant leading into the hot tag. The finish saw Valiant rescue Torque from a double suplex and give Dunn a stunner. Torque then pinned Dunn with a 450. The comedy worked. The fans were entertained. Valiant’s brand of babyface selling was the norm 30 years ago. It looks overdone in 2018 but was nevertheless effective in this case.
Postmatch – Valiant pulled down his tights to show off his “oh mercy” underwear and sneaked a kiss on Torque while selling the knee the entire time.
(4) “The Redneck Above All Rednecks” Kavron Kanyon defeated former GPW Champion “Michigan Muscle” Cody Vance in 6:20. The work was fine. They had some good ideas if only they had slowed down enough to let them sink in. Vance has a great look but his facial expressions are way too muted. Kanyon missed a HUGE top rope leg drop. Vance hit his finisher but didn’t get all of it and Kanyon kicked out. Vance missed a high boot and Kanyon pinned him clean with the STO. The finish was nicely done. I was surprised to see Kanyon go over until I remembered Vance worked the last Southern Honor show.
Intermission to set up the cage: ACTION Wrestling promoter Matt Griffin helped with the cage. So did Takura. Another sign of the times I guess - a heel wrestler helping to set up the cage.
(5) War Games: Team Logan Chase (QT Marshall & GPW Southern States Champion Jaxson Cassel & Erik Havok & Ryan Rembrandt with Logan Chase) defeated Team GPW (Cuzin Shaggy & Cuzin Cletus & Talon Williams & Chico Imperio with Darrell Morris) in 18:07. Team Chase “earned” the man advantage via cheating their way to victory in a match on the previous show. Morris was wearing bib overalls to match Good Ole Boys. Marshall was wearing the dress per the stipulation of his loss to Gangrel. A chain, a board, a walker and a pipe were at the ready. Marshall and Shaggy worked the first five minutes. Nice choice. The work was good and the action was compelling. Shaggy’s aerial moves looked like gold they way Marshall was taking them. Shaggy pulled Marshall’s dress off and put it to good use. Marshall hit Shaggy with the board. Havok entered. Shaggy put up a hell of a fight against the odds. Cletus entered and squashed both heels in the corner, causing Marshall to fall on Havok’s crotch. Good Ole Boys ruled until Cassel entered with a low blow on Cletus. Cassel has the look of a thoroughbred. It was 3 on 2 with the heels in control. Williams entered and absolutely cleaned house on all three heels. The mystery heel was Rembrandt. That’s all Chase had for the ultimate surprise? Marshall used the board. Cletus and Shaggy were both busted open. Cletus got great color. Morris’ secret weapon was the masked Imperio. Whoever he was, the guy was obviously a skilled wrestler. The big spot of the match was Shaggy doing a crossbody off the top of the cage to save Cletus from certain doom. Cletus sent Marshall into all four sides of the cage and splashed him. Chase took matters into his own hands by entering the cage and waffling Cletus with a chair. Morris entered…took the chair from Chase…and slugged Cletus. The crowd was in disbelief as Rembrandt pinned Cletus.
Shock turned to rage and a “Darrell sucks” chant. Team Chase beat Team GPW to a pulp as Morris watched with glee. Hullender had seen enough. Woody made his way into the ring with a piece of pipe, but before he could use it, the masked guy unmasked revealing Drew Delight. He blasted Woody from behind, repeatedly waffled the fallen Wood with the chair, then turned the chair over to Morris for three shots of his own on Woody.
The ending to this show was some kind of pandemonium. This was a turn nobody saw coming. Delight was the perfect choice as Darrell’s guy. He’s a great heel and tried to gain control of GPW in a previous run. There were concerns that fans would go after Morris as he tried to exit but that didn’t happen. However, Morris stayed in the building until all the fans outside dispersed.
NOTES: GPW's next show is January 12 at Buffington School Gym with Cassel vs. Brent Banner for the Southern States title, Torque vs. Rembrandt for the GPW cruiserweight title, GA Heat vs. Walker County Line for the GPW tag title and Thunder Blonde vs. Royal announced...GPW is bringing in Bullet Bob Armstrong on January 26...The referees were Tyler Thomas, Jonathan Chastain and Slim...Lamar Diggs was in the house helping out. My condolences to YJ from Ox's Ring Rentals on the passing of his father.
