The Rap Sheet - from the Crimefighter
New Midwest Wrestling Brawltoberfest
10/23/2K4 Springfield, IL

Rumble rumble rumble...


The rap sheet is archived at the Rap Sheet Dossier at http://rap-sheet.tripod.com and can be read in various locations on the internet that I send it to, which includes news:rec.sport.pro-wrestling.info a newsgroup that wrestling companies could use to promote their shows but don't. The views expressed by Crimefighter are solely his own, and do not necessarily reflect the views of friends, associates, co-workers, organizations, whichever website you're reading this report on, or any of the six billion people on planet Earth.

The NMW All Star team played one more eight game season of softball, even in this late month of the year.  Unlike the last set of games they actually started winning a few games.  Two weeks prior they squashed a team by twenty runs, but lost by almost as many in the second game of a doubleheader.  The day after this show, the final game of the season was lost but they ended up with a record of 3-5 which was an improvement.

I have more outside the fed news on NMW guys.  Maximum Impact is getting around the state, they tried for the new SCW tag team championship in a tournament.  They got to the second round before being defeated.  They also wrestled in Decatur the day after this show in a match that was the first NMW vs. 3CW bout winning against Gavin Alexander & Sam Stockwell.  Mr. Elite who I consider to be the rookie of the year still is champ for SCW, and also for the first time wrestled on an NWA No Limits event with another appearance scheduled in early November.

The wrestlers before the show come out and draw numbers.  Live from the American Center.  Your ring announcer is Jimmy "The Bruiser" Osbourne, your commentary team is Tom Arson, Dane MacLeod and Michael Raines.  They ran rampant with the crude comments before the show began...oh my gosh.

RWJ and Devall come out and talk about the lineup for the evening, and notes there are three girls in the rumble.  So Guy Smith or Sage Ramsey could be fighting a girl next month.  Haha.  We lead off with the two who drew blank tiles, the winner goes last in the rumble, the loser goes first.

First or Last Match

Carbondale, IL - Lockup, shove Billy, drop toe hold into the corner Boston, trips him again and walks on him.  Drop kick, whip reverse flying headscissors, Boston clothesline Billy out.  Baseball slide attempt misses, fight outside, Morgan posts Boston twice.  Toss in, fisherman's suplex gets two, Morgan stomps away, KO punch.  Morgan whip crossbody Boston gets two.  Billy clothesline, DDT gets two.  Morgan with a head vice, Boston gets a sloppy DDT for two.  Piledriver Morgan gets two, rear chinlock, Matt elbows out, Morgan pickup, powerslam gets two.  Choke on the rope rope Billy, whip to the corner Morgan eats a boot, drop kick Boston gets two.  Matt tries something, Morgan blocks it, kick to the gut, fight in the corner, Morgan side suplex gets two.  Billy pulls up the shirt and chops.  Whip Morgan, side step, clothesline Boston, drop kick.  Whip reverse Boston pulls off a springboard tornado DDT somehow.  Wheelbarrow attempt turns into a Stun Gun by Morgan, superkick gets two.  Morgan begins setting up Boston for something, Boston's music starts playing briefly, Morgan stops and looks to the back then goes back to putting a hold on then more music plays and it's Michael Shard.  PHD on the apron, Freshman with a botched rollup but no count, Billy gets a cane, Shard in and takes it away, rollup by Boston gets a pin.  Got messy.

WINNER:  "The Freshman" Matt Boston pin -> (5-6-0-1) 11 mins. *½

Bruiser encourages fans to vote and they show the Jib Jab video.

"I Already Am" Justin MacIntyre (1-2) 224lbs. Barrie, ON, Canada w/ Stephani King vs. Tricky Dick Moore (5-7) 5'10" 185lbs. Beaverdale, PA w/ PMS - The Mack runs his mouth and says he'll beat up the next person who boos him...he's got the belt on backward and upside down.  He says the office wants him to put up his title shot against Tricky Dick cause Khaos Kidd is injured, he says he should get the belt by forfeit cause of the 30-day rule.  Actually it's 60 days cause they run shows once a month and two others skipped a month between defenses this year.  I am SOON TO BE wanting to have the Mack strangled for being a thorn in my side, literally.  Thus, I am cheering for PMS for like the second time ever.  PMS chews out the Mack and says Tricky took out the Kidd and that GAW guy Jaxson Pride.  King gets in his face and PMS calls her a boy.  And oh boy, PMS gets the crowd chanting "She's a Boy" at King!  Tricky takes the mike and says he may have lost but he took him out and he asked for this match from RWJ.  MacIntyre jumps him, whip reverse drop kick by Justin.  Snap mare, read headlock by Mack, jawbreaker Tricky, inverted atomic drop.  MacIntyre feigns injury, but pokes him in the eye, uppercut gets two.  PMS is griping at the ref.  Chop Mack, snap suplex gets two.  Choke MacIntyre, reverse russian legsweep, figure four gets two.  King helps pull before being chased off by PMS.  Mack drops elbows, third one misses, shoulderblocks Moore, chops, he stumbles forth and flops to the mat for two.  LOW BLOW MacIntyre and PMS is screaming.  Boot wipe Mack, he tears on Tricky's face, MacIntyre tries for a neckbreaker, Moore blocks it and hits the RUDE AWAKENING for two.  MacIntyre with his Justification, spits on PMS, PMS jumps in the ring, King jumps in the ring, PMS goes for a LOW BLOW on MacIntyre, King LOW BLOWS PMS, Khaos Kidd is in the ring playing the Big Bossman and whacks both men with a nightstick and this match is thrown out.

NO WINNER:  NO CONTEST -> 7:25 mins. **

Double DQ is the same as a no contest so that's how it shall be marked.  Kidd cuffs Tricky and Mack together, Mack tries to get away but can't go anywhere, Kidd keeps kicking him.  RWJ comes out and tells Kidd he can't be coming out and interfering, so makes a triple threat match for the Central IL title next month.  Kidd gets a few more licks in before leaving.

El Diablo Silverado then comes out and screams at people to shut up cause someone important is gonna talk.  He screams at the people shouting he's not Logan.  He demands apologies and respect, and accuses everyone of turning their backs on them.  EDS complains about Logan's looks and hair.  Okay he needs some ritalin.  EDS says he's in the rumble and he'll win.  Logan comes out to answer, EDS screams at him for having stupid hair.  Logan grabs the mike and says enough.  Logan says there was always a one and two, he's one and EDS is two.  Logan says he kicked the crap out of EDS last year, and wants EDS in a match where if he wins he can shave his head or else he gets the mask.  EDS hits Logan with the Unprettier and stomps away.  RWJ comes out makes the match for next month and wishes to see if EDS is Marty Jennety under the mask.

The fight continues, whip clothesline on Elite, Stan in, full nelson slam on Shane.  Poor sports, Sigma Omega Beta finally runs out with a chair but misfire and nail Shane, cutting him in the head.  Mister Mister flees and I have the duty of conducting a live interview with them.  Mister Mister run their mouths about Max Impact cheating and that's why they dumped KC through a table.  Sigma Omega Beta chase them off, they say they screwed them over last month.  Max Impact comes over and complain about the cut in the head.  Eventually RWJ sets up a triple threat table elimination for the tag titles next month.

"Alpha Male" Guy Smith speaks in a taped interview, he says he's no longer the Alpha Male cause he's sick of people chanting all female, so his new name is GS 10-32, the man with guns.  Wonder if Monty Brown forced the name change somehow?  Nah.  But the fans are still chanting all female anyway and probably will be doing it months from now.  Gosh what a goofy name, and it's been suggested by a fan who's currently serving in Iraq that GS 10-32 actually stands for Guy Smith doing Cherry 10 times and Witchy 32 times.  It can also stand for his true win/loss record if so many people didn't interfere in his matches.

NMW Heavyweight Championship

Peoria, IL - Some fan is REALLY chewing out Witchy, think maybe he had a bit too much.  Sage is wrestling with damage to his surgerily repaired knee.  Lockup shove Sage, headlock, shoulderblock, hip toss, clothesline, hip toss and Guy flees.  Guy back in, knee to the gut, hair pull.  KO punch Sage, clothesline, headbutt, back body drop, whip side slam gets two.  Whip slam, legdrop Sage gets two.  Headbutt, Guyt whip clothesline Sage gets two.  Guy bails again, Sage goes after him and gets into it with Witchy Watson, hey it's Halloween where's her broom and pointed hat?  Guy nails him from behind, ram to the post Smith.  Toss in, armwringer Smith, KO punch Sage.  Whip corner splash Sage, second one misses and hits the post, cover gets two.  Hammerlock behind the head Smith, armdrag, clothesline get two.  Standing hairpull Smith, suplex, whip reverse drop kick gets two.  Choke Smith, to the corner, face slap, whip reverse but Sage eats a boot.  Clothesline misses, belly to belly suplex gets two.  Chokeslam blocked, side suplex Smith, slam, second rope elbow misses.  Chokeslam Sage gets two.  Axe by Guy, whip reverse Guy leapfrog, side suplex.  Smith wastes time doing pushups, then slugs away.  Sage fires back, whip Sage, they get tangled in the ropes but Sage gets the final fall for TWO.  Sage pounds away, whip corner, spinebuster Sage, whip BIG BOOT gets two.  Ramsey whip reverse belly to belly suplex Smith.  Ref counts to eight, Sage chokeslam, final fall attempt blocked, Smith miniature powerbomb and hooks the tights to pin him.  Well he lucked out.

On the way out, the same fan and another person get in the face of Smith and Witchy to trash talk and security had to step in.

30-Man Royal Rumble
Rules are over the top, and two minute pass from when the last person entered the match for the next one to come out.  They do not announce the names of the wrestlers, which makes it hard to figure out the names of the new guys.  I had gotten their names earlier but after they geared up I forgot who was who.

Some stats:  MS Madman and Scotty Cash were in there the longest at 53 minutes or so.  Tricky Dick Moore, Justin MacIntyre, Stephani King were in there the shortest at under 15 seconds each, if that.

The Verdict:  The stars of the show was the heavyweight title match and the rumble.  A bigger crowd to watch this event made a lot of difference in the atomosphere and pushed the wrestlers to do more.  Give them credit, three people did pull out of the rumble literally hours before the show for various reasons and they found suitable substitutes to cover the slots.  The matches for the next show are set up, Cash vs. Smith for the title again, triple threat elimination tables tag match, triple threat for the Central IL title, mask vs. hair, women's match, and there's more left to sign.

Thumbs way up.
