-- Crowd looks bigger than last show's.
-- TARO was by the bar, perhaps he'll do commentary.
-- Up first is the unannounced match: NEMESIS~! vs. Brandon Bonham
-- Crowd is pumped, no doubt for Brandon Bonham, whoever that is.
-- RICK KNOX is on commentary with Excalibur.
-- Bonham did a suicida and got a "new guy" chant.
(1) Brandon Bonham def. Nemesis with a Swanton Bomb.
-- Crowd is super hot.
-- TARO is on commentary for the second match, which will be Candice LeRae vs. LuFisto.
(2) Candice LeRae def. LuFisto when she reversed a high cross body.
-- Post-match, Tornado and Claudio came out. Hero chased Tornado off, which led to...
(3) Chris Hero def. Claudio Castagnoli after reversing the giant swing.
-- Claudio wore the ugliest indy shorts ever, Hero wore CAMO~! tights.
-- No word on if Kingston/Generico no-showed.
-- Post-match, Tornado and CC beat on Hero till he chased them off.
-- LuFisto came out and beat up Candice.
-- The Dynasty cut a promo. Super over. Lost did the Lioncock pose, Joey has on a pink neckerchief. Kingston no-showed. Joey talked about the tag belts. Joey sent out an e-mail to the PWG roster, and Generico replied. Generico's partner is STEEN, who came out to a huge pop!
-- While all four men were down, Super Dragon came out and gave Jade a Psycho Driver and left.
(4) Kevin Steen & El Generico def. Joey Ryan & Scott Lost (c) to win the tag titles and a spot in the DDT4 tournament when Lost was pinned after a Package Piledriver/Brainbuster combination.
-- Intermission.
-- Excalibur thanked the fans for buying stuff from the bar.
-- Necro no-showed.
(5) Zokre & Phoenix Star won a four-way tag team elimination match to win a spot in the DDT4 tournament.
Order of Elimination:
1. Scorpio Sky & Ronin 2. TJ Perkins & Hook Bomberry 3. The Young Bucks (Nick & Matt Jackson)
(6) Chris Hero & Candice LeRae def. Human Tornado & LuFisto in a mixed tag street fight after Hero pinned Tornado with a Cravate Cutter.
-- Claudio ran in post-match and gave the ref an uppercut. Claudio taped Hero to the ropes and LuFisto gored Candice through a table. Tornado, Claudio, and LuFisto continued to beat down the babyfaces.
-- Finally, Excalibur and the ring crew chased off Tornado.
-- Hero cut a promo and praised Candice's toughness.
-- Excalibur promised he would "make it right."
-- Awesome show live.
-- Tag Title match was the match of the night.

Cool to here Steenerico is holding gold somewhere outside my heart. The rest is hard to follow since I really only pay mind when I hear about PWG. Either way, I admit being intrigued by Hero as a face vs Double C as a heel. It's dynamic in a way. Thanks for posting, Franchise.

I may have to pick this up for the LaRae-LuFisto match/es. Candice LaRae has been really impressive both times I've seen her.
I'm sort of suprised they didn't break up the 4 team match into two matches, if not three, considering the shortness of the card.

The main event is all that sounds good. My main problem with PWG is they have too many of the same matches as ROH has
What were the reasons for the no-shows?

Did I say ON THIS CARD? PWG has done plenty of matches that have been done in ROH over the last few months. Evans/Strong, Aries/Nigel, Nigel/Danielson, Claudio/Strong just to name a few. I'd have to check out more results but almost every match PWG has is a match that has already been done before.

PWG uses (sometimes regular, sometimes semi-regular) a bunch of core ROH guys, getting similair matches is inevitable. Besides, PWG has so much underrated talent its unbelieveable.

I'm just saying that's why PWG doesn't interest me too much. Most of the matches I can see else where. I think PWG should try using some more guys that don't get many bookings to keep things fresh. Kingston is a good idea but who knows if he will be back now.

Brandon Bonham I believe used to work as Kid Krazy in the midwest. He is originally from Minnesota and appeared in MPW & F1RST Wrestling in Minnesota, 3XW in Iowa and I believe made a couple IWA Mid-South appearances at some point.
Not sure what his look is now, but when I saw him he wore yellow, baggy, vinyl basketball type shorts as his gear.

Yes, Brandon Bonham is indeed the former Kid Krazy from Minnesota. He moved to California in the fall of 2006. He just recently got back in the wrestling game after taking some time off to concentrate(sp) on his work outside of wrestling. I hear he is booked for the April show as well.

That'd be like me going into a topic about how Jay Briscoe enjoys waffles and posting an interview with Dennis Stamp. It has absolutely no relevance to one another, or so little relevance that it becomes pointless, mindless dribble in trying to connect two and two. Nemesis, Candice LaRae, Zokre, Phoenix Star, Nick & Matt Jackson. Then there's PWG regulars like Joey Ryan, Scott Lost, & Chris Bosh here that rarely work elsewhere, and when they do, it's usually as 'PWG star'. Did you even read the results for the thread you're posting in?

Also your comparison is pretty ridiculous.

I believe my at length appearance on the In the Rotation " Easter" special gives quite the clear picture on my opinions of Easter and Easter related activities. Regardless, stupid is a universal holiday that you enjoy celebrating

It's great to see Steen back. I've always liked his run in PWG, especially the heel run as champ.

C'mon guys, this sh*t is old.
Obo, his point was valid. PWG did Claudio and Hero for the millionth time, and ROH has outdone that match to death, along with CHIKARA. Now, he was saying PWG as a fed, books alot of ROH rematches on their shows, which I totally agree with. They do.
But PWG booking ROH rematches, is actually the intelligent thing to do. People on the West Coast NEVER get to see ROH or any type of indie wrestling of that sort out there hardly at all, so if PWG wants to draw ROH and Indie fans, it's pretty smart to book ROH rematches.
But I must agree also, the people that interest me most, are the PWG regulars like Steenerico Bosh, Lost, Ryan, Excalibur, Super Dragon, Disco Machine (where's he been?), etc.
...also, I agree with whoever said the Hero/Tornado fued is doing well, i really do like the feud also. LuFisto added into it, can only mean good things.
But yes, the Tag Title match, sounds like the match i'd wanna see on this card.

I <3 LuFi, for some strange reason. But yeah, two Hero matches and the fact I'm teh Hero markz~! will make this a definate purchase for me. I buy all PWG's shows anyway.. but still.
Shame Necro and Kingston both couldn't make the show, looking forward to seeing Dragon kill Jade. For the third time..
