Sunday GPW Results From St. Louis, MO (Casa Loma Ballroom) + Other Show Results

-Ring announcer:  Ben Simon.  Referees:  Matt Race, Alex Strahan, & Adam Kennedy.
-A.T.M. d. "The Silverback" Jabari King after a close-range superkick (3:34).
-"The Deliverer" Moses Powell & "The Big Strong Boy" Ethan Price d. Culture Shock("The Canadian Trapper" Caleb J. Cartier & "The Flower Child" Oli Summers); Price seemed to want to fight on his own to make up for last month's tag team loss, leaving Moses with little choice but to tag himself into the fray.  Price blind-tagged back into the match, but Moses immediately made his own blind tag as the match broke down into a brawl.  Price hit C.J.C. with an exploder and covered, but Moses was legal and had to push his own partner aside to make the legal pin cover (4:14).  Price took exception and shoved his own partner aside on the way out of the ring.
-"The Too Turn't Wild Unicorn" Laynie Luck won a triple threat match with Lady Bird and "The Devil's Little Princess" Heather Reckless when she pinned Reckless after a flying Diamond Cutter off the second rope (7:57).
-"The Mile-High Magnum" Dak Draper d. "Big Munch" Marcus Muncherson via Magnum Drop(fireman's-carry forward slam) (6:48).
-"Second To None" Kenny Alfonso d. "His Mom Calls Him Son Cuz He Shines Like One" Rohit Raju with a bridging rollup (13:28).
-Mike Outlaw, "The Whole Thang" Rahim De La Suede, & "Too Good" Mason St. Goods(w/ Cinko) d. United Glory Tag Team Champions The Philly & Marino Experience(Philly Collins & Marino Tenaglia) & "Effortless" Chris Hendrix when Outlaw rolled up Marino with a handful of tights (10:46).
-"Warhorse" Jake Parnell fought Jake Something to a no-contest when both men brought weapons into the fight (14:50).  The two dueled with a chair and trash can and dumped the referee, leading to the locker room emptying to separate the two.
-Rey Fenix d. "The Southern Flamingo" Kody Lane after the Fire Thunder Driver(sitout Tombstone) (14:16).
-Dan "The Dad" Adams d. "HeartbreakCORE" Shazza McKenzie with the backpack Stunner to retain the Alpha-1 Wrestling Zero Gravity Title (6:35).
-"The Quadfatha" Camaro Jackson d. "A Whole Lotta Dude" Crash Jaxon via lariat (9:30).
-"The Little Blue Dragon" Tootie Lynn Ramsey d. "Player One" Vertvixen after the knee trembler (8:22).
-"Heavyweight Hustle" Calvin Tankman(w/ Cinko) d. "Big Flexy" Xavier Walker to retain the Crown Of Glory Title.  The referee was knocked down and unable to make the pin count after Walker decked Tankman with the knockout punch.  That brought out Rahim De La Suede and Mason St. Goods to attack Walker, but Walker was able to temporarily fight them off and deliver a massive chokeslam to Tankman for a near-fall.  Cinko's crew finally interfered once too often and were ejected from ringside, but that gave Tankman the opportunity to hit Walker with the title belt for his own close two-count.  Walker finally delivered a second knockout punch but Tankman fell out of the ring; when Walker put the champion back inside the ropes, Dak Draper ran out to attack his former tag team partner and ran him into the ringpost.  That gave Tankman the opportunity to finish with the Screwdriver(vertical suplex-into-sitout Tombstone) (19:40).
-NOTES:  I hadn't been to a show inside the Casa Loma Ballroom since the days of the National Wrasslin' League.  Official Ben Simon Concession Count(tm):  Two Coca-Colas and a chopped cheese sandwich(kind of a cross between a cheesebuger and a hoagie).  The show had a really good turnout and I wonder if Glory Pro could run at this venue on a regular basis.  Dan The Dad carried his title belt in a baby carrier, which was tremendous.  The slow turn of Ethan Price to the Dark Side continues.  So many matches hit really well in my opinion; Kenny Alfonso was long overdue for a big win and finally got one.  Mike Outlaw's crew(in some combination) is positioned nicely for a shot at the United Glory Tag Titles.  Warhorse and Something will have to meet again in some sort of even crazier environment.  Fenix appeared to tweak his ankle at one point but seemed to be okay by the end of the bout, hope he'll be fine; sadly I didn't get an opportunity to get a picture with him.  There was plenty on this card for the fans of Big Meaty Men Slapping Meat(tm Big E Langston).  The fans were either tired or just a bit told on the Tootie-Vertvixen match, not that it was bad; I think Tootie could use a new feud soon.  The crowd was red hot for the main event and I legit wondered if they might pull the trigger on another title change; it wouldn't have been unprecedented as Jason Kincaid was the first Crown Of Glory Champion and lost it to Myron Reed in his first defense.  Hopefully Big Flexy's time to come eventually.

ADDED FRIDAY NOTES:  I was super tired, under the weather, and the building was hot that evening so I didn't add comments at the time.  The card underwent some last minute changes with Davey Vega and Nikki Victory out, plus Brogan Finlay being ill; Dingo vs. Vega has been rescheduled for the October show which already has the massive main event of Gary Jay vs. Japanese wrestling legend and former ECW Heavyweight Champion Masato Tanaka.  Unfortunately Dingo reportedly suffered an injury near the end of his match with Christian Rose; hopefully he'll be good to go for October but only time will tell.  Official Ben Simon Concession Count(tm) for Friday:  Hot dog, Mountain Drew, bottle of water.  Still searching for the identify of the new referee.  Saw a few new faces in the pre-show six-way match; Li'l Evil is NOT the son of local wrestler Wicked who went by that nickname, but a Latino competitor from Texas.  Manders vs. Connelly has been an intense series of bouts and I'm sure we haven't seen the last of them.  It was good to hear from Evan Gelistico after his health care...I have to imagine that his in-ring career will be drastically scaled back, but never say never.  I'm glad to see Madi and Ashlyn get some traction in different companies, they've put in the work and deserve the spots they're getting.  I legit thought it was a first-time meeting between Gary Jay and Mike Outlaw but apparently they crossed paths back in PWCS (checking the archives, I was definitely at that show too...see, the "encyclopediac knowledge" doesn't have all the pages, LOL).  The weekend featured two anticipated title matches and in both of them, yon overbooking torpedoes were duly launched...or something.
