Women’s Three Way Dance Elimination, Ms. Chif VS Rain VS Daizee Haze

Story: The winner of the following match wins the vacated IWA:MS Women’s Championship Title, due to Mickie James’ injury. All three of these participants are IWA:MS regulars, which we also hope to have regularly in the future.

Outcome: The show starts off with this women’s match and it shows that American women know how to wrestle the best. The overall quality of this match was much better in comparison to the women’s tag last event, even having more crowd interaction and running for longer – showcasing the skills that these three women, Daizee Haze, Rain and Ms. Chif posess in the ring. Daizee Haze proved victorious in this gruelling, physical match which ended with a ear-splitting enziguri which staggers Rain before capitalising with her devastating Daizee Cutter. The women’s division gets better each week.

Angle with Jimmy Jacobs and CM Punk

CM Punk is in the ring, cutting a promo about how he made Jimmy Jacobs his bitch last month. He says that he’s always loved beating up the little guys – it was something he missed in the WWE. But now that he’s back, he can take full advantage of the size (or lack of) of Jimmy Jacobs. Jimmy Jacobs comes out, pissed off about losing to Arik Cannon last week thanks to Punk, and challenges him to a match tonight. The challenge is accepted.

Three Way Dance Elimination, Akuma VS Charly Manson VS Trik Davis

Story: Following the successful debut of Akuma last month, IWA officials have placed him in a three-way dance with IWA:MS regular Trik Davis and another debut, fresh from Mexico, the well known Charly Manson. If things go well in this match, Charly Manson, Akuma and Trik Davis may have many future matches together.

Match: Akuma strikes Manson. Trik Davis walks into a high dropkick from Akuma. Manson counters an arm wringer with an elbow to the side of the head. Manson hits a dropkick on Akuma. Trik Davis hits a missile dropkick on Manson. Cover! 1....2....kick out at the last second! Trik Davis looks shocked. Spin kick by Akuma to the face. Trik Davis counters a sleeper hold by turning it into a jaw breaker. Manson \ Trik Davis hook up Akuma, then hit a double suplex. Slingshot clothesline by Manson. Pin : 1....2....3! Manson defeats Akuma. Back heel kick from Manson. Trik Davis fights out of a grapple. Diving headbutt from Trik Davis. Cover! 1....2...kick out. Manson reverses a Trik Davis hammerlock. Flying cross body off the top rope! Trik Davis gets knocked to the ground by Manson, who is already climbing the turnbuckle. Moonsault Press!!! 1....2....3!! It's all over.

Outcome: While it was not as good as Akuma’s debut last month, this three-way really showed off the skills of these three competitors; young, eager and ready to put their bodies on the line for the fans. Throughout the entire match it seemed that both Charly Manson and Trik Davis were stiffing Akuma – perhaps a ramification of the popularity he’s been getting in North America? All three men showed great psychology and ring presence, and should definitely be on future IWA:MS shows.

IWA Light Heavyweight Title Match, Chad Collyer VS Josh Abercrombie©

Story: At last month’s Put Up or Shut Up show, Chad Collyer went over both Josh Abercrombie and Brandom Thomaselli in order to win this title shot. He won on unfair terms, though, as he used a low blow to capitalise in the match – yet the referee didn’t see, so tonight’s match is going ahead. Josh Abercrombie promised his fans on his website that he would not allow Collyer to take his gold – especially not in a situation where he cheats.

Match: Collyer hits a massive spinning kick to the jaw. Second rope flying axe handle, Josh goes down. Second rope splash by Collyer. Back heel kick off the second rope, Josh goes down. Josh Abercrombie hooks up a suplex, but it is blocked. Collyer scores with a low blow, then turns it into a small package! The referee didn't see the illegal blow! 1...2...3! Josh Abercrombie got screwed out of the victory! Larry Sweeney comes running down the aisle, and gets into the ring! Larry Sweeney spins Collyer around. Larry Sweeney hits the Bionic Elbow! Chad Collyer has been left down on the canvas.

Outcome: He did it again! Not only did Collyer once again cheat to win, but this time he did it to win the title! At the 9 minute mark, Chad Collyer once again hit Abercrombie with the low blow, and before Abercrombie knew what was happening he was stripped of the title after a small package. While Collyer celebrates his new title, Sweet N Sour Larry Sweeney runs down to the ring and nails him with the Bionic Elbow – knocking him out and leaving him slumped on the canvas. Sweeney looks at both Abercrombie and Collyer disgustedly, before grabbing the title, raising it above his head, then throwing it back at Collyer. What kind of fantastic matches will this lead up to, with Sweet N Sour now in the race?

Payback Match, Claudio Castagnoli VS Mad Man Pondo

Story: Fresh back from Europe (and minus an injured tag team partner in Chris Hero), Claudio Castagnoli contacted IWA offices saying that he wanted to get retribution for the treatment Mad Man Pondo gave him at Put Up or Shut Up, in which he and Hero won the belts off the two IWA brawlers, Pondo and Ian Rotten. During the match not only did Hero and Rotten open old wounds with each other, but, in the intensity, it seemed that Pondo gave Castagnoli some dangerous moves that could have seriously injured him. Tonight It’s Double C’s turn to get payback.

Match: Double C hits an arm drag on Pondo. Short range spear from Claudio Castagnoli. Hooks the leg : 1....2....shoulder up. Claudio Castagnoli misses a clothesline. Double C takes a headbutt from Mad Man Pondo. Pondo slams Claudio Castagnoli down. Cover! 1....2...kick out. Mad Man Pondo with a standing spinebuster. Hooks the leg : 1....2....shoulder up! That was close. Big clothesline on Double C. Mad Man Pondo gets taken down out of nowhere. Double C suplexes Mad Man Pondo. Hooks the leg : 1....2....shoulder up. Flying knee to the face from Claudio Castagnoli. Cover! 1....2....kick out at the last second! Double C looks shocked. Mad Man Pondo takes a knee lift from Double C. Pondo takes a kick to the chest, and staggers back. Pondo counters an avalanche with a raised foot to the face. Big backdrop on Double C, executed well. Pondo DDTs Claudio Castagnoli. Ian Rotten comes running down the aisle and into the ring! Claudio Castagnoli turns around. Ian Rotten spins Double C around. Ian Rotten hits the Career Killer! I. Rotten leaves the ring, the damage done! Hooks the leg : 1....2....3! Mad Man Pondo pins Double C. Pondo and I. Rotten beat away on Claudio Castagnoli, leaving him spread-eagled on the canvas.

Outcome: After a surprisingly technical match between the two, Claudio and Pondo started getting more and more intense with each other. After some devastating DDTs delivered by Pondo, who should come out from backstage but Ian Rotten, Pondo’s partner! Together they beat down the ally-less Double C, who, without his injured partner, had no-one to aid him. You best believe that as soon as Chris Hero is cleared to wrestle he’ll be back here, getting revenge for Claudio and continuing his ongoing feud with Ian.

Caribbean Barbwire Match, Necro Butcher VS JC Bailey

Story: After a recent match in another promotion which ended in disqualification, both Necro and Bailey approached IWA:MS looking to settle their score in their home promotion, in a situation without disqualification or anything stupid like that. IWA liked the idea so much that we decided to have it on our Payback, Pain and Agony show, in not only a no-disqualification match, but also a Caribbean Barbwire Match, where barbwire is wrapped around the ropes. Tonight the two settle their score on their own terms.

Match: J.C. Bailey throws Necro back-first into the barbed wire. Necro takes a hurrancarana. Bailey only gets knees on a splash. Bailey gets slammed. Rude Awakening on J.C. Bailey by Necro. Necro Butcher throws Bailey back-first into the barbed wire. Fallaway slam by Necro Butcher. Bailey counters an avalanche with a raised foot to the face. Back heel kick from Bailey. Slingshot clothesline by Bailey. Second rope flying axe handle, Necro goes down. J.C. Bailey throws Necro back-first into the barbed wire. Necro Butcher elbows J.C. Bailey in the face to break a hammerlock. Necro slams J.C. Bailey down. Necro Butcher with a standing spinebuster. Necro Butcher throws Bailey into the barbed wire...and that entire side collapses, wrapping Bailey up in the flesh-ripping wire!! Necro quickly makes the cover and gets the three count over a bloody opponent. J.C. Bailey extends his hand to Necro...and it is accepted! They shake!

Outcome: After a hard-hitting, brutal barbwire match, both JC Bailey and Necro Butcher came through bloody and torn up, yet still had the decency to show their respect for each other. Necro Butcher ultimately came out on top after throwing Bailey through the top and middle rop, catching him on the wire and totally ripping it off the ropes, leaving Bailey in a mass of wire and blood on the gym floor. After a quick pin, and the people in the front row cleaning the blood of their faces, Necro Butcher and JC Bailey shook hands and hugged.

NWA Indiana Title Match, Tyler Black © VS Delirious

Story: After Delirious’ impressive performance against Akuma last month, IWA management chose to put him in the running for Tyler Black’s newly acquired NWA Indiana Title – a prestigious title that Delirious has proved he can carry.

Match: Delirious gets hip tossed by Black. Delirious elbows Tyler Black in the face to break a hammerlock. Delirious strikes Black. Delirious misses a clothesline...and takes out the referee by mistake. Black walks into a face crusher variation. Hooks the leg, but there's no referee to make the count. Black counters a sleeper hold by turning it into a jaw breaker. Face crusher from Black on Delirious. Black hits a high kick on Delirious. Cover! 1....2...kick out. Slingshot clothesline by Black. Pin : 1....2....no! They cut that one close. Delirious avoids an avalanche, Tyler Black hits the turnbuckles hard. Second rope splash by Delirious. Pin : 1....2....kick out! A split-second away from a three. Black counters an arm wringer with an elbow to the side of the head. Delirious can barely stand. Here it comes - Black Breaker. 1....2...3, it's finished.

Outcome: Delirious’ shot for gold probably did not work out how the masked man would’ve liked. Tyler Black dominated most of the match and, in the end, won following a Black Breaker on the bruised and broken Delirious. The two worked well together in a fantastic match that unfortunately seemed to not excite the fans to the extent it should have.

Payback Match, Jimmy Jacobs VS CM Punk

Story: At last months’ show, CM Punk brutalised Jacobs in the middle of the ring and thwarted his plans of winning the IWA Heavyweight title against Arik Cannon. After two Anaconda Vices, CM Punk let the lifeless Jimmy Jacobs slump on the ground and continuously yelled “I’m back, Jimmy!” IWA officials have since then officially signed Punk to a contract and, at the request of Jimmy Jacobs, have sanctioned this match to take their hatred to the next level: payback.

Match:
Flying elbow from CM Punk. Jacobs walks into a jaw breaker. Cover! 1....2...kick out. Jimmy Jacobs hits a right hand out of nowhere. Jimmy Jacobs scores with a back heel kick on Punk. Hard back suplex on Punk. Cover! 1....2...kick out. Jimmy Jacobs with an enziguri. Pin : 1....2....no! Shoulder up at the last second. Hard back suplex on Punk. CM Punk blocks a right hand and fires back. Punk suplexes Jimmy Jacobs. Pin : 1....2..no. The match continues. Jacobs walks into a face crusher variation. Pin : 1....2....kick out!

Jimmy Jacobs hits a rolling kick on Punk. Jacobs face jams CM Punk. CM Punk gets whipped into the corner by Jacobs, who charges in with a clothesline. Punk grabs the referee and pulls him in the way! The referee calls for the DQ as he collapses to the mat in pain. CM Punk gets out of the ring and walks off, having taken the cheap way out. Axl Rotten comes running down the aisle with a chair and into the ring! Punk turns...and is dropped by a vicious chair shot! Axl Rotten has left Punk down and bloodied.

Outcome: A good-willed save or a planned situation? CM Punk and Jimmy Jacobs seemingly having a fairly balanced match until Punk got angry and threw the referee out of the way, causing a disqualification finish. Punk proceeded to get even angrier, taking it out on Jacobs, until Axl Rotten came from backstage and made the save, damn near knocking Punk out with a vicious chairshot. The end of the show sees Axl Rotten slowly making his way back to the backstage area while a hurting Jacobs looks on with awe. The crowd were incredibly into this match.

Reports of the show:
The amount of people that attended Payback, Pain and Agony was 915, which was much higher than the amount of people that attended our show last month, which shows positive things happening. JC Bailey was injured in the barbwire match between him and Necro Butcher, and will be out of commission for at least a month because of it. Charly Manson’s style and overall presence seemed to be liked by the IWA:MS fans, and we are glad to inform you that he will be a mainstay on the roster as of this event. Many of you fans of Corporal Robinson will be sad to hear that he has chosen to retire from the wrestling industry. Corporal has been resting up and nursing nagging injuries for the past 3 months and had requested not to be on any shows – a request we were happy to comply with. Backstage at Payback, Pain and Agony, Corporal Robinson showed up and said that rather than go out and disappoint the fans after such a great event, he’d say it here. We wish the best of luck to Corporal Robinson in his future, and hope that he enjoyed his time with IWA:MS.

As a fan of IWA:MS I was drawn to this diary, and let me say I'm not dissapointed.

Man, This Diary looks really well written and Planned. I really dont know much about IWA: MS, but it looks good. Keep it up!

The Hardcore TV Opening Video runs, showcasing all of IWA:MS’ best talent for the whole world to see.

Show Opener: Calling Out for an Answer, Axl Rotten calls out CM Punk

Axl Rotten climbs into the ring with a microphone and immediately starts talking trash about CM Punk. “Punk thinks he can just waltz back into IWA:MS and start doing things how he normally does? Maybe in the WWE, Punk, but that sh*t doesn’t fly here. You see, here at IWA, I was under the impression that we were renowned in the independent world for having the most respectful collection of boys. You hear internet reports from newcomers saying how friendly and respectful the roster is; always lending a hand, always helping out a fellow worker. Well, Punk… for the past few months, I haven’t been seeing that. You know why? Because of YOU. You suddenly think that because you’re a big-shot ECW superstar (and don’t even get me f**king STARTED on this goddamn ECW) you can come back to the company that MADE you and do what you want? Times have changed, Punk. Here at IWA:MS, you’re no longer the guy that everyone wants to see. You’re no longer selling tickets. So that’s why it rubs me the wrong way when I see you come and beat up Jimmy Jacobs, two months in a row. And last month when I made the save – that wasn’t for Jimmy Jacobs. Hell, I don’t even like that kid. It was for the wellbeing of IWA:MS. It was to do something about YOU! And Punk, if you have ANY common decency whatsoever, you’d come out here and accept a challenge. My challenge. I’m challenging YOU, CM Punk.”
After a minute of silence, Axl Starts towards the locker room again.
“That’s what I thought.”

Outcome: After the match was finished, a disgruntled Ms Chif, angry that SHE didn’t get the first shot against the new women’s champion, ran down and beat both Haze and Ann-thraxxx down. The crowd reaction to this match was terrible – it’s sad to see how little they appreciate women’s wrestling.

Backstage Segment,
Jimmy Jacobs has a lot on his mind.

Jimmy Jacobs is backstage, talking about CM Punk. “Punk… What’s with you, man? You come here, take me out three or four times, stop me from winning the title… I could go on. I know you’ve never liked me – from the very beginning of my time here in IWA, back when you were actually POPULAR here – there was a vibe I got that you didn’t like me. I tried so hard for you to approve of me, but you just never broke down, did you? While you’ve been travelling the world, wrestling in ECW, I’ve been here in America, busting my ass. Now, while I did demand a title shot, I feel I deserved that right – and so do the people here at IWA:MS. Because unlike you, I never sold anyone out. I had my chances, Punk – TNA wanted me for a while, WWE were interested in a developmental deal, but no. I have too much going for me where I am. And you think that you can come here and take it all away from me? It’s just like old times, hey Punk? The guy with more talent than you must be stopped. Well, Punk, I’m not in the mood for your games any more. I want to settle this soon.”
