So, yeah as i favor to my friend who is coming with me to JAPW in July in exchange for this i attended the WSU show in Jersey. Upon entering the "Arena" which was basically WSX but worse and not intended to look that way i was already turned off. However im friends with the owner Jac Sabboth and i knew this was no ROH so its not fair to judge, i mean im here for fun.
Attendance was about 50 and we were instructed to go camera side to make it look better for the DVD. There was also no Mic for some reason and the ring stairs were just a wooden step case.
Whatever though as i said i was here to have fun, i was next to i believe Green Latern Fan who was the most annoying fan i could ever sit with. Whatever crap he gets, he deserves, a massive prick who tried to ruin the show with smart comments that weren't funny. The Ref owned him on numerous occasions noting how pathetic he is in life and how he is in mark trying to get over. If i weren't Friends with Jac i would have prob kicked his ass for being annoying.
So yeah, first match was some dude named "Joe so Delicious" who was super Jakked against i have no idea since i didn't remember. Joe won to like no crowd reaction, the crowd of 50 were dead. Next was the Christopher Street Connection against the Dirt Rotten Scoundrels who did everything imaginable to get cheap crowd heat. They even pulled my skull cap down my face, which is worth the DVD to see me get "owned" even though they did it to like everybody to make them look like heels on the DVD.
Christopher street connection lost in a comedy match to little heat, tons of the usual gay spots from 2002.
Then came the good stuff
I see now why Kev thinks John Walters is awesome, him and Azriel put on an awesome match which i thought was MOTN. Walters should be back to being a fulltime in ROH, i was def impressed by both guys but mostly Walters.
Kingston vs Ki was next since the whole card changed because Super Dragon was hurt. Kingston sold great but i think the styles just didn't mesh well, Ki was on tonight but Kingston looked like all he wanted to do was sell tonight which i can understand not wanting to give it all for a crowd of like 40. Ki won with the driver and had some trunks on, first time ive seen him wear trunks and first time ive seen him live since my first ROH show in 05.
Danny Demanto was in a handicap match and he lost against Javi-air,Deranged and someone else who escapes me. I know Danny Personally so it was cool for him to acknowledge me and break kayfabe :-p, since he always put on Gail Matches for me at his job
Tornado and B-Boy had an awesome match that the crowd was finally into. Great to see both men, Tornado won and the two shook hands. Great effort and it was awesome to see these guys go all out for such a small crowd, it says alot.
Iron Saints battled SAT and 2 new Wrestlers there to pay dues basically as they got stiffed and beat the crap out of. Iron Saint are
ing awesome, basically breaking charachter and talking to me about how crappy the crowd of 34 is and basically being bunghole. SAT's got ing FAT, i haven't seen these guys since TNA but wow they gained ALOT of weight. Iron Saints won to an ovation then heeled the crowd after lol..
Xavier who was supposed to fight Ki was out for his Mystery Opponent. It was Tornado again who fought Xavier to no heat. Xavier ising horrible, i thought the man was bad before, it was worse CROWD WAS ABSOLUTLEY DEAD. Xavier also has the worst Mic Skills and facial expression EVER. Tornado won the title to a small pop since Xavier killed the crowd upon enterting. I got a good shot in with Tornado holding up the Title with me holding his arm up.
After was a Dark match with got the biggest ovations of the night and is worth the DVD. Hilarious and fun match which was loud and crazy and def made up for the show. My voice was shot after the Dark match.
Overall: I had a good time, i didn't expect anything fancy and i enjoyed myself. The only negative was the annoying stereo-typical Smark ROH fans like Latern and the two guys he was with who tried to ruin the mood pointing out obvious things wrong like the arena and such multiple times to the point where they were just being bungholes. I came to have fun and enjoy myself not critique the show all night and be some smark. Honestly, if your going to be an bunghole don't even come, i know these people have no life other than to go to ROH shows mark out and then go to every other show and call it crap.
Thats my review, my next show will be Japw and me marking out for Gail Kim
Wooo
oh and and Jersey has someING HOT WOMEN ;D
