WFWF Breakout has come and gone but before I get to the show. Right off the bat, there’s a few things I have to get off my chest. First off, this is MY newsletter. I give it to you guys free of charge because we all love the sport and some of you seem to enjoy reading my thoughts and opinions on the WFWF. Second, I’m taking notes while I’m watching the event – there’s going to be mistakes on my part. I apologize for not being perfect. I get paid to review the show LIVE but apparently, some of you aren't a fan of my recaps. My last review got hammered online by a couple of haters. I took some screens of some of those lovely messages:
What do you all want from me? This is a free newsletter. If you don’t like it, then DON’T READ IT. You try sitting in a crowd where people are yelling and screaming or, in the case of Michael Kyzer throwing garbage in the ring – all while taking notes and making observations! I guarantee that there will be just as many mistakes, if not more. So you don’t like my recaps? GO READ SOME OTHER "EXPERTS" NEWSLETTER. Lord knows he get facts wrong all the time too. If you guys want snarky – I can be snarky. Just don't tweet me or email me when all your feelings get hurt. You've been warned....
Hopefully now that I’ve ABSOLUTELY OBLITERATED the haters, the rest of your will enjoy the new format. K? Okay.
ANTE WHITER vs. REINA KENSHIN - *** ¾
Very brutal match; both wrestlers bled and Reina drew a cross on her beautiful face, using Whitner’s blood. Sick! Still love her though. Ante is in great shape but man – that beard has got to go! Has anybody seen Jackass: Number Two? There was a bit there called 'Terror Taxi' and umm…Whitner’s beard looks like the “beard” they used in that. Those who watched it know exactly what I’m talking about.
DAVID BRENNAN vs. RYAN “NEEDLES” PAYNE - * ½
I thought this match was a bit unfair. Brennan kinda toyed with Needles throughout the match and personally, I never once believed that Needles stood a chance against the big guy. Biased? Probably. Needles looks like the rejected singer of a punk rock band.
FRANK LYNN vs. MESH - ** ¾
The match was ‘ight but only because of Frank. You know that saying that we say in the business, “So-and-so could make a broom look good?” Well Frank definitely worked with a broom in Smurfette. She was so awkward (shocker) and she just didn't step up for being in the main event so kudos to Frank for having a great match against a terrible opponent. I hate how Frank gave her credibility at the end by shaking her hand.

Important reminder: Rumors are just that -- rumors. None of this has been confirmed as legitimate news, it’s just circulating around the pro wrestling rumor mill, but we present it as fact. Remember, take it all with a grain of salt. Or not. Up to you.
- Rumor has it that Mesh has been kissing major ass backstage in order to advance her career. I have heard that she’s known to agree with anything that an executive says. Go figure – she was in the main event at Breakout so I think that “rumor” is more than likely true. As if I needed any more reasons to dislike her. Oh and apparently, Mesh's "hair" is actually a wig. She was rumored to be seen outside The Pudding and Pie, a popular L.A. dance club with purple hair. So it's either some ugly chick that looks like Mesh or it's actually Mesh. Honestly - what's the difference?
- Reina Kenshin, as perfect and absolutely flawless as she may be is rumored to have failed a drug test when needles containing traces of anabolic steroids were found in the garbage outside along with an empty bottle of whiskey – yet the WFWF allowed her to go out and wrestle. I got tons of emails from people in attendance at Breakout who noticed a strong odor of alcohol coming from Reina, leading to speculation that she was drunk as well so maybe this "rumor" might be true as well. One thing’s for sure about Reina – she never changes. I've heard some legendary stories about Reina and her drinking from her NJA days.
- According to WFWF.com via the "award winning app" (that never works properly, by the way) David Brennan is injured following the attack from Turgarin Zmey. Well, that’s not true. David Brennan was written off television, so he could go film a movie – Magic Mike DDXL according to rumors. I’ve heard that the plan going forward is that Zmey is scheduled to be the next WFWF World Heavyweight Champion while Brennan is away. Brennan has been in talks with the production company since March - which is why he wasn't at The Riot on Broad Street, despite what other news outlets will tell you about Brennan being "detained" outside the arena the day of the show.
- Ante Whitner made his long-awaited return to the company at Breakout, debuting his new gimmick – “The Redeemer”, a religious type deal. Whitner must be a really good actor because according to rumor and innuendo, Whitner is actually a Laveyan Satanist. There has been talk around the wrestling world about a “Father Ciampa” that many speculate to be Whitner himself. Talk about being somewhere between Heaven and Hell!
