I don't give a damn what anyone says about it. It's my favourite movie. I love that beginning scene with all the goons. A great movie needs agios beginning and that hooked me straight away. Film quote wise, I think it's from Begins but it's my favourite movie quote "Why do we fall Master Bruce, so that we can learn to pick ourselves back up".

Another good show. More comedy in the matches which is good to see if you want to go down that route. Battle of the Dragons sound good. I'm very intrigued with the promo with the rocket and the banana. I might have put over the Yellow Jackets in the main event but you know what you got planned. Good luck.

Videos
2017 may be only a few days old but SNW may have produced possible POTYs (Promo of the year). They posted two videos on their website. One by former SNW World Champion, Chris Hammers entitled “The Angry Man” and another by the man who took his title controversially at SNW's last show Ace Bennett:
“The Angry Man”
Chris Hammers is on a bench, at night time, a lone lamppost lights his figure, he is back in his native Ireland. In the background the sounds of Dublin. His hair covering his face. He straightens up with a menacing stare back into the camera.
I am an angry man, full of rage and torment.
I am a clever man because I have my rematch clause.
I am a strong man as a weaker man would use his rematch up right away.
I will not pander to the crowds wishes. I will not dance to the beat of Bennett's drum.
I will choose when I want to fight. Bennett you won my title out of luck.
Why should I give you the advantage? I want you to know anytime you’re in a match. After the bell has rung and you’re in a heap on the floor. I want you to know, that I may be next.
You can't prepare for that, you can't prepare for a "may be".
And I will take back my title. You never beat me. You don't deserve it.
You may hold the gold. But I... I am still champion.
To me, being champion is more than just a belt. It's knowing you’re the best.
And I know I am the best, because Ace, you-never-beat-me.
When we do face, I want you to look into the eyes, the eyes of an angry man.
Eyes that burn red in rage and blood fuelled on revenge.
Look into the eyes of the angry man. For that moment, that single moment, I want your forgiveness.
And you will beg and you will weep. But the angry man, will just kick your b*****d teeth out.
And as you lay there, the championship will be back where it belongs.When will that be? An angry man never tells.
“Challenge Accepted”
Ace Bennett is in front of a playing field. The SNW World title is on a chair next to him. The floor is beginning to be covered in snow. When Ace speaks you can see him breath.
People are saying that what happened at Showdown wasn’t meant to happen. And they’re right. It wasn’t. I wasn’t meant to win the title by the skin of my teeth. I was meant to win the title proudly with my head held high. I won the title with my back on the ground staring up at the lights. That’s not a way to be crowned champion.
But does that mean I’m going to give the title back? Hell no. What this means is that I’m only going to hit harder, strike faster and win decisively. This is what is going to spur me on. This is what is going to define me. Because of this, I will prove to all the doubters that I, Ace Bennett, am the best wrestler in the World.
Now, many of you already know that. For years now, you’ve been chanting that at me, “Best in the World”, “Best in the World” you chant. So why is it, that so many of you are surprised when I do win this belt? You know I’m the best. I go out there night-in-night-out and put it all on the line. I've done that every show, every day since the first day I walked into SNW as a kid. I’ve worked from the very bottom up to earn your applause and now you ask me to earn it all again.
Challenge accepted.
If you challenge me, if you question me then you do not know me well at all. I'll fight anyone, I'll do anything to earn what I've won. This is my challenge, one that I take on gladly. This isn't a game to me, it's a life.
The Showdown wasn’t a fluke. Maybe it didn’t go to plan. But I am the champion and if anyone wants to say I am undeserving of it, you know where to find me. You’ll find me in the ring each and every night, giving it my all. And if you step into the ring with me, I’ll show you why I earned the chant “Best in the World”.

Good show man, I really like the recap keep that. Nice multiman opener. Liked the video package, should do at least one every show. You put over the women's match well. I thought Dragon's partner might be Assassin but he started speaking Welsh. Nice main event, seemed more TCW than Wrestle Kingdom though. It put over Dark Dragon well, which was the meaning behind it.

SNW 2017: Looking Ahead
New Year, New Champ: In one of the most shocking moments in SNW history, Ace Bennett captured the SNW World Championship in the Klauteren. Chris Hammers was one count away from defending when the time limit sounded. Bennett last held the World title six years ago. Can the man many call, “the Best in the World” live up to his billing?
Fall of the Revolution: 2016 was undoubtedly the year of Revolution X but has it come at a cost? Tension is rising between Chris Hammers and Jordan Devine. With Devine’s time as leader of RevX a distant memory, is a munity arising?
The Year of the Tyger: After a series of hidden messages it was announced that the legend TCW’s Justin 'Soulfire' Tyger will be coming to SNW. Over 2017, Tyger will compete against the best SNW has to offer. Meanwhile another TCW competitor Keeley Matthews currently holds the Women’s Championship. Despite TCW closing it's doors, its legacy still lives on.
MockingGold: 2016 was a historic year for Elliot Reid and Dean Caufield. At the beginning of the year they looked like they would be the team to end the record breaking reign of the Fatality Squad. Fresh off a main event win over Team Bennett in India, the duo entered Clash of the Duos as favourites. However, the Parkland Bros upstaged them. Mockingbird had the last laugh winning the titles at EIGHT. Now can they stay on top of the mountain?
The Chosen Hart: Not content with just being the FUSE Champion, Kevin Hart has also had his sights on the SNW World Championship. “Calgary’s Own” won the Battle of Mexico and now has a World title shot to use. He has announced he will challenge for the title at 2017’s first show. In Brazil can Hart hold both the SNW World title and the FUSE title?
SNW Player just gets better: For the first time ever, all of SNW’s shows in 2017 will be shown on the SNW Player. The company announced their three package deals. Deal 1 – Platinum Package (all shows from 2017 including Pre-shows and On Demand), Deal 2 – Gold Package (6 iPPV shows and Pre-shows and On Demand), Deal 3 – Pay Per Show.
SNW 2017 Schedule (Provisional)
January: One Night in Brazil (iPPV)
February: Be the Best qualifiers (Nights 1 & 2)
March: Be the Best qualifier (Night 3)
April: Be the Best Tiebreaker Night

SNW 2016: A Year in Review
2016 opened in a new land, India. SNW made its debut in the continent with a bang. The iPPV saw the debut of Ken Slayer (son of Ricky Slayer), Chris Hammers become number one contender to the World title and the SNW and Duos champions (Riley Shamrock and Fatality Squad respectively) retain their belts. But the main event was a surprise, as Mockingbird upset their recent rivals Team Bennett to win their tiebreaker match.
Mockingbird’s win couldn’t have come at a better time as the Clash of the Duos was on the horizon. The champions, the Fatality Squad had already become the longest reigning and most successful champions in SNW history, now they were looking to do the unthinkable and win the COD for three years in a row. After three nights of action which included the Synergy title being defended for the first time in SNW, Ken Slayer earn himself a FUSE title bout (which he lost on Night 3) and Riley Shamrock defending the World title on all three nights, the Squad’s reign was finally ended. Not by Mockingbird but by the surprise Parkland Brothers, a team which the Squad demolished in the same tournament a year earlier.
One tournament followed another as Be the Best 2016 was next in everyone’s sights. With a shot at the World title at Riot Act IX on the line, everyone wanted in. For the first time in SNW, all four block winners did not need to go to tiebreakers. Those block winners: Hart, Bennett, Devine and Powers would face off at the Be the Best iPPV. At the Nutter Center in Ohio, Hart and Devine won their semi-final matches to meet each other in the final. Also on the card: Amy Lee downed newcomer Taliah Winters, FUSE Champ Daniel Sinn retained over the man who pinned him in BtB qualifying Matt Spade and the Parkland proved that their win at CoD wasn’t a fluke by beating the Squad a second time. Devine conquered over Hart, using the former Triple Crown Champ’s injury against him which allowed Devine to set up a World title bout at Riot Act IX. But who would he face? After an absolute classic Hammers hit a final Last Minute Orders to end Riley’s reign and become the 14 SNW World Champion.
A the next show RevX tried to capitalise with their new momentum, with Hammers and Devine, both fresh off big wins, challenging for the Duos titles. The team was unsuccessful, partly because the two knew they’d be facing off in the main event of Riot Act IX for the richest prize in SNW. But they weren’t alone. Riley Shamrock still injured from his title loss, added himself to the main event using up his rematch clause.
Riot Act IX was held in the fantastic Maple Leaf Gardens in Canada. The spectacular backdrop added to a historic night. Nick Jacobs downed his long-time rival Mike Bockwinkel in a feud that re-started at the beginning of the year, Mockingbird re-started their run to the top of the tag division when they beat the top teams from TCW and ISW, Jack Powers put down the thorn in his side the impressive youngster Jet Jaguar, Beast Kong continued her reign of terror over the Women’s division and Safu won the first ever Warfare+ continuing a successful year for RevX. In the three big title fights: the Parkland Bros established themselves further with a big win over Team Bennett, Hometown hero Kevin Hart captured the FUSE title and Hammers managed to retain the World title in the battle of three current and former members of RevX.
SNW certainly loves its tournaments, a new tournament was set up to establish who was the best singles wrestler, the Champions Carnival. The tournament pitted 16 of SNW’s best against one another in ranked singles action. With the SNW World title on the line in every one of his matches, Chris Hammers came out on top to establish himself as the strongest SNW has to offer.
From a new SNW concept to one of its oldest, the Magnificent 10. Jordan Devine won another shot at the big one by defeating teammate Safu in the final two, cementing if people didn’t know already, that 2016 is the year of RevX. Hammers meanwhile racked up another defence with a win over Nick Jacobs.
SNW presented another A-class quality show with their Anniversary event, EIGHT. At the London show: Powers and Jaguar faced off yet again with the young masked warrior earning plenty of new fans by taking Powers to the limit but ultimately losing to the former World Champion, Hart retained the FUSE title over the best the UK has to offer in Zack Sabre Jr, Knife Fight beat their mentor and his tag partner in their mentors own creation the dreaded Kagemann Deathmatch and Beast Kong’s Women’s title reign came to a screeching halt at the hands of TCW’s Keeley Matthews. At the top of the card: Evan Pagano returned to SNW, Hammers retained the title in a classic against stablemate Jordan Devine and Mockingbird finally captured the Duos titles defeating the Parkland Bros.
SNW then took a trip down south with a tour of Mexico. In the land of tag team wrestling, the new Duos Champions, Mockingbird came out strong, headlining shows and winning matches up and down the country. Meanwhile, the rest of the roster were battling to claim one of the Klauteren spots, in order to be put in the Scramble match for the World title at Showdown IV. The Battle of Mexico also took place, with Kevin Hart continuing his fine run of form, earning himself a future World title shot by defeating El Patron.
At the final show of the year, Showdown IV: Ken Slayer beat his former partner Joseph Stone who had troubled him all year, Pagano continued his singles losing streak with a loss to Daniel Sinn, Kevin Hart retained the FUSE title while still eying up the World Championship and Mockingbirds kept the belts beating the former champions. However, the shock of the year and one of the greatest in SNW’s history came in the main event and the last match of 2016. In the Klauteren, Hammers was one count away from retaining his belt when the time limit ended meaning the temporary champion Ace Bennett became the 15th SNW World Champion. This sent shockwaves through the wrestling community as everyone debated whether or not this was a mistake or clever booking on SNW’s part to get everyone talking.

Sad to see one of the best talk about stepping down.
Seems like a lot of us are in the same boat. We're all getting older, getting less time to write and sim and it seems like we're not getting in new members to replace us. And the board is slowing down due to this. It's been coming for a long while, only picking up when one of us thinks we're making a comeback.
Let's face it folks, we're the last days of WCW

Awesome, show man as I said before. It's got a cool in a kinda Lucha underground / WSX vibe. Maybe shove in a video package of a character since I think that's what you want to promote most, Their characters. Plus it fits into the Tv format. Love some of the names, Yellow Jackets sound good think they could become the top team. Stampede is a perfect name for the battle royal. You write it well. Still unsure about the Kinevals running down the promotion before it's even started. But I see why you did it. Looking forward to the next show, keep this up.

Synergy Issue #18
Christmas Special
Drew Parkland came out with a Santa hat and welcomed the fans to the Festive show. He said tonight we have three titles on the line and a special appearance.
1) Joseph Stone and Baby J Jamerson vs. Liam Hendrick and Simon Glockerburg: Simple opener, the heels Stone and Baby J were in full control working over Glock. The hot tag was made but the momentum didn’t last long. Stone and J won with a Hart Attack.
Stone and Jamerson took the mic post match. But the mic wasn’t working. They ended up shouting for quite an amusing promo in which they said they were the next big thing in tag wrestling and funnily, they wanted to make their voices heard.
2) Ken Slayer vs. Carl Simmons vs. Justin Allusion vs. Zakk Static: A fun four way, it wasn’t given too much time for anyone to do anything special. Simmons still hasn’t shown much in his short time in Synergy. Slayer won after a Sling Blade on Allusion.
3) WOM: Keeley Matthews [TCW] vs. Rose Parkland vs. Red Fire: This was the first of three title matches but wasn’t anything to write home about. Keeley didn’t seem bothered, Fire didn’t hit any of her big spots and Rose still looks slightly green. Keeley obviously retained with a Key-lock.
Drew brought out the special guest, Petey Claus! Petey the Pirate dressed up as Santa. The younger fans loved the free gifts that Petey gave out.
4) Duke Parkland vs. “El Hijo Nature Boy” Pedro Flair: Excellent match to lead into the break. Duke looks like he might have a break out year in 2017, he’s a real talent. And Pedro can always surprise with a performance, especially coming off the Mexican tour. Duke won after blocking a rana attempt with an Assault Driver known as the KFC.
Duke Parkland stayed out at the break, he’s the most over guy on the roster but this is his promotion. It’s in his hometown and it’s run by his Dad.
5) DUOS: Mockingbird vs. Parkland Bros: Duke’s brothers, Axel and the youngest Rex were the challengers for the title. This was a different bout to what highflyers Mockingbird are used to. They worked over Rex slowly. With sister Rose at ringside the fans rallied behind the brothers. But still, the Death from Above allowed MBirds to retain.
After the champions left, the Parkland Bros remained to thank the fans. Joseph Stone and Baby J Jamerson ran out and attacked the Parkland’s. Duke Parkland then ran the evil duo off.
6) SYN: Jet Jaguar vs. Dave Demento: The main event was the rematch of Issue 17 where Jet Jaguar ended the reign of the integral champion. The match was on par of their last encounter, just minus the atmosphere and build. Jet still busted out some big spots, including a dive to the floor and a Springboard SSP. Demento responded with his stiff strikes and a backdrop driver. However, the former champ could not hit the running kick. They played off their last match with Jag nearly winning with the small package but Demento kicked out. Jag managed to flip his way out of a powerbomb and hit the TTM for the win. |

Only just caught up on this weeks NXT. Gable and Jordan are gold. I've always liked Gable, he's got in ring talent and has great promos. Jordan looked a beast out there and his promos with Gable has always been good. Cool to see Gargano there, looking forward to next week to see if it's just a squash or whether they stick around. Also nice to see Stone there. He cut an amazing promo when he was signed with WWE years ago.

 Controversy - or is it?The whole wrestling world is talking about it. The question is whether it was a genuine mistake or a brilliant marketing ploy by SNW. At SNW's final show of 2016, the SNW World title was put on the line in a Klauteren (similar to WWE's old championship scramble matches). In the match "temporary" champions are crowned throughout the match but whoever is the temporary champ when the 60 minute time limit elapses becomes the champion. Original 16 member Chris Hammers walked in as champ after an impressive reign showed no signs of losing. However, Ace Bennett who has been out of the World title picture was crowned temporary champion with just minutes remaining. Hammers managed to clear the ring and hit his signature Last Minute Orders but the referee only got to a count of 2 before the time limit sounded. In wrestling, the time limit scenario is used to add to the tension and so can be booked this way. However, from the shock of the wrestlers and the face that a second referee had to run out to deliver a message from backstage, this can be seen like this wasn't meant to happen. Many are of the opinion that Hammers was booked to retain the title but messed up the timings. Even Ace Bennett who was on the outside of the ring when the time limit sounded didn't seem to know what happened. He looked legit shocked when he was handed the title. He even disappeared backstage quickly only to re-enter seconds later. Seemingly he went backstage to ask what happened and was told to go back out and hold up the title. However, others believe that Ace walking out as champ in these circumstances was the plan all along and that the wrestlers just acted shocked. SNW is known for misleading their fans. Their biggest swerve was when they announced Chris Hammers signed with NOAH. Only for it to be a ruse for Hammers to return and destroy the United Front. The incident has certainly gained a lot of media attention, another ploy SNW likes to use as shown by their previous press conferences with celebrity appearances (Boxer David Haye in UK). What also backs up the claim that this is SNW's idea is "The Showdown" event is known to end in a big shock. Previous Showdown event endings include Bockwinkel turning RevX on Hammers and taking his title at the initial event and the first appearance of the United Front. The news also overshadowed the big announcement that TCW's Justin 'Soulfire' Tyger is coming to SNW in 2017. The former Triple Crown Champion who has competed all over the world including Japan and Cerberus Wrestling will be making special appearances in SNW over the course of the year. It will be interesting to see what happens at SNW's next show, their debut in South America, One Night in Brazil. This may give a clearer indication of whether Hammers was meant to walk out as champ or Ace was SNW's plan all along. |

Countdown to the Showdown
Katie Foster opened the pre-show with a panel as she was joined by commentator Drew Parkland and Petey the Pirate. Katie wasn’t the best host but she run down the card and said the Jacob Ryler would join the panel after the first match.
1) Cody Rejero vs. Zakk Static vs. Jacob Ryler: Simple three-way opener. With Jackal injured, Static is going to have to compete as a singles competitor. He looked decent here but took the fall following Cody’s Pepsi Driver.
Ryler joined the panel and Katie asked the three for their predictions on some of the undercard matches on the iPPV. Parkland chose Slayer versus Stone saying he’s seen them training and it could surprise a few. Ryler said the women’s match is going to be the hardest hitting match of the night. And Petey said he hopes fellow Original 16 member, Evan Pagano can break his losing streak tonight.
2) Matt Spade vs. Baby J Jamerson: A basic singles match with some good technical action. Jamerson is improving and Spade let the youngster get in plenty of offence. Jamerson came close to getting the win on a few occasions and got the win with a neat Small Package reversal.
Katie and the panel were back with their predictions for the Duos and FUSE title bouts. Drew said everyone knew he will be supporting his boys but hoped Hart can retain too. Ryler predicted Hart’s got his eyes on the World title and will slip up tonight. Petey said Mockingbird look like they are going to hold onto the Duos titles for a long time.
3) Amy Lee and Red Fire vs. Taliah Winters and Kourtney Love: Fun women’s tag bout, pretty fast paced too. They even did the SNW dive spot with Love hitting a suicide dive and Fire hitting an Asai Moonsault. This led to the finish where Amy hit the Downward Spiral on Love.
The final panel spot with Katie was about the main event. Katie asked for the panel’s predictions on the six-man Klauteren. Drew said that Hammers is the man at the moment and doesn’t see anybody knocking him off his perch. Ryler agreed but said it’s a great opportunity for someone like Riley to win the belt without pinning Hammers (something Riley has never done). Petey said he sees Mike Bockwinkel as a wildcard as he has experience in winning the first.
4) Nick Jacobs vs. Dave Demento: The main event was originally on the main card of the iPPV but got knocked down because of the Klauteren. It was a good thing because it meant these two got plenty of time. Jacobs worked brilliantly against Demento and made the youngster look very good. The match ended with stiff strikes and Jacobs falling to the F***tard.
The Showdown IV
Live from the FUSE Arena only on SNW Player
The FUSE Arena is sold out for SNW’s last event of the year. There was even added seats.
1) AirDevils vs. Jet Jaguar, Jason Williams and El Hijo de Angel Custodio: Scorching hot opener, about as hot as you can get. Very fast paced action made the crowd come alive. Of course, there was the dive spot with dive-after-dive. The end was a finisher flurry with El Hijo and Jag hitting a two-man Spanish Fly and Jason hitting a 630 but Gerard and Cantrell fought back hitting the Bombs Away to win it.
We see Joseph Stone backstage with his father Cameron Stone and Baby J Jamerson. Cam said that tonight is the night they finally rid themselves of Slayer. He hyped up his son well.
2) Ken Slayer vs. Joseph Stone: This was the surprise of the night. The feud between these two has been lacking but these two former friends put on a great little match which included Slayer diving onto Cam and Baby J. They were ejected and Slayer then got the win after getting the knees up to the Moonsault and hitting the Sling Blade.
Afterwards, Slayer got a round of applause. After initially not being accepted by the SNW fans it seems like he has finally won them over.
The Joseph Brothers were backstage with SNW’s interviewer Katie Foster. Katie asked about their bad luck recently. But the brothers kept talking over each other, which led to Jack walking out on Matt.
3) Joseph Brothers vs. Revolution X: Matt took all the punishment in this match from Safu and LyNN. Jack didn't even seem too bothered about making the save. The hot tag was made and Jack flew about the ring well even hitting a nice Sky Twister Press to the floor onto Safu. He wanted to put RevX away with a tag finisher but Matt hadn't recovered. This led to a 2-on-1 situation with RevX hitting Jack with the Samoan Drop/Neckbreaker.
After the bout, Jack blamed his brother for the loss. He shoved him then left holding his neck.
4) FUSE: Kevin Hart vs. Steven Kagemann: This was another good match which was helped by the fact that they skipped the opening stages of the match and went straight to the hard hitting. Kagemann controlled at first and tried a piledriver on the apron, only for it to be reversed. Hart then hit a bottom rope suicide dive. Back in the ring, Kagemann got his knees up to the 450 and almost scored the win. Hart kicked out of the DeathDrive, so Kagemann went for the Fire Tornado. Hart moved out of the way, hit a superkick and finished off the former three time Duos Champ with the Maple Leaf Revenge.
We saw the first two promos for the Klauteren. They focused on Jack Powers and Ace Bennett. Powers said that he sees this as the perfect opportunity to reclaim his spot atop of the mountain. Bennett said he is sick of putting on the best matches of the night but not being the champion. He says he knows what he has to do to win tonight.
5) DUOS: Mockingbird vs. Parkland Bros: This was a great tag match which started early as the MBirds attacked the Parkland brothers before the bell. There was no Rose at ringside as she was still selling the effects of the Anniversary show. Reid and Caufield worked over Axel from making the tag and drew excellent heat. The hot tag was made early and Duke fought off both men. This began the near-falls, Parkland with the KFC, then the Parklands with their Dad’s old tag finisher, Southern Styling. The Champions fought back with the combo that won them the belts, an Eat Defeat and a 450 but it was broken up again. The MBirds hit their old tag finisher, the Sunset Flip/Springboard Dropkick but Duke kicked out of it. The Champs were quick to follow up with the American debut of their finisher, the Death From Above to retain.
There was another video package focusing on another two men from the Klauteren, this time on Jordan Devine and Mike Bockwinkel. Devine said he has had his chances this year but he can’t slip up again. Bock put over the fact that he is the only person to have won a Klauteren and will do it again tonight.
6) WOM: Keeley Matthews [TCW] vs. Wasp: What a hard hitting bout. I don’t think the fans were expecting such a match. Keeley came out like an MMA fighter and just destroyed Wasp with strikes. This shook Wasp who never really recovered. The referee separated them and then Keeley took Wasp off her feet with a big belly-to-belly. Wasp began a fight back with a knee in the corner. As she thought she was in control, she went for the Buckle Bomb only for the champ to transition into a Key-Lock. Wasp tried to get to the ropes but couldn’t take the pain and tapped. A quick but effective MMA style match.
The final part of the Klauteren hype aired with the video package focusing champion Chris Hammers and “Gunslinger” Riley Shamrock. Shamrock did a good job in making it seem like he and Hammers are big rivals, saying he has never beat him one-on-one but said he doesn’t even need to pin him tonight to reclaim the title. Then the video focused on Hammers which transitioned into the interview set with Katie Foster. She asked him about his odds and Riley’s comments. Hammers said he is the best in SNW and no one has been able to stop him. He said no stipulation or no amount of competitors will change that.
7) Evan Pagano vs. Daniel Sinn: The story going into this match is Pagano has lost both his singles matches since his return. They worked this like a main event bout, with a slow “feeling out” process to start leading to a big finish. Both men can technical wrestle, so it was a fun beginning but the fans were getting tired at this point, so they were quiet. They won the crowd over when Pagano hit a SicKick for a close call and later dived over the top only to be met by an uppercut. Sinn then hit a lariat to take Pagano into the crowd but Evan returned to the ring before the countout. Sinn then went for the Original Sinn only for Pagano to counter with a second SicKick. Pagano went to follow that up with the Calling but got caught in a small package for the three!
Intermission. Shock finish to the first half, everyone expected Pagano to break his little losing streak but he got caught out with a small package. There was no-one out at the break but it was announced that some SNW athletes will come out at the end of the show. A video package aired of SNW's next iPPV and it's first of 2017, One Night in Brazil, SNW's debut in South America.
Before the main event, a video played. It made reference to the Japanese symbols we’ve seen all year and the picture of the Tiger. The words “2017 Year of the Tiger” appeared” Then the screen went blank. Footsteps were heard and a dark figure walked towards the screen. When his face was close to the screen, the light rose and the person was revealed to be TCW’s Justin Tyger. He smiled then a Tiger roar was heard as the screen went blank. Fans went crazy for this announcement.

8) SNW: Six-Man Klauteren: Chris Hammers vs. Riley Shamrock vs. Jordan Devine vs. Ace Bennett vs. Mike Bockwinkel vs. Jack Powers: The match was a bit of a cluster to start with all six-men brawling with each other but soon the match got some kind of order with only two or three men in the ring at the same time. It didn’t take long for the first temporary champion to be crowned, Ace Bennett got the pinfall after stopping Devine’s superplex attempt and instead hit an early Syracuse Bound which had Powers tapping. Bennett submits Powers via Syracuse Bound (9:05). Bennett stayed in control for a large portion of the match with plenty of others coming close. A finisher flurry led to the next change, Bockwinkel hit the Bockwinkel Special on Hammers but before he could do anything he was hit with an Irish Welcoming from Shamrock. Shamrock pins Bockwinkel via Irish Welcoming (31:47). Devine then came in straight away and took the temporary champion crown right off Shamrock. Devine pins Shamrock via Devinity (32:00). The action continued until only Hammers and temporary champion Devine was left standing. The two battled before a Lariat took Devine to the canvas. Hammers pins Devine via a Lariat (38:36). The champion retained hold of the role for another ten minutes with plenty of kick outs and break ups in between. That was until Bock managed to roll up Powers to take control (49:20). But Powers bounced immediately back with a Choke Out which had Bock tapping. Powers submits Bockwinkel via Choke Out (39:05). Hammers regained control soon after with a pinfall over his rival. Hammers pins Shamrock via the Last Minute Orders (43:16). Then when it was announced that there was ten minute left, things got real crazy. Our commentators noted that it seemed everyone was desperate to be temporary champion but their stamina was coming into play. Bennett pins Devine via Shinning Wizard (51:04). Shamrock submits Powers via Ode to Shamrock (52:48). Bockwinkel pins Riley via Bockwinkel Special (53:11). Bennett pins Bockwinkel via small package (53:29). Hammers pins Bennett via Diving Senton (55:36). Bennett pins Powers via Syracuse Drop (57:50). Bennett managed to keep retain being temporary champion up until the final stages. Hammers took Ace out with a Lariat then focused on Devine. Hammers hit Riley off the apron then hit the Last Minute Orders on Powers, the referee counted to two but the time limit sounded!
Fans were shocked, they didn’t know what had just happened. Bennett was the last temporary champion but was Hammers meant to have pinned Devine? The wrestlers didn’t know what to do, which suggests that Hammers was booked to walk out as champion. Second referee Enzo Stile ran down and went straight to the ring announcer. Then the ring announcer said “The Winner and NEW SNW WORLD CHAMPION!” Ace Bennett is the new champion! Bennett becomes the 15th SNW World Champion but was he meant to? Ace was handed the belt and didn’t really celebrate. He walked up the ramp with confusion on his face. The camera focused on Hammers who looked distraught. He asked the referee about the decision but he was overheard by the camera saying that he only got a two count before the time limit ran out. Bennett then appeared back on the ramp, pretty straight faced looking at his new title, then raised it in the air. Madness and controversy to end 2016!

Only saw the first one and it was awful. I do like the idea of it being before MOTD though. Other than that it's a load of crap.
