NWA Anarchy TV #278

Your hosts are Greg Hunter & John Johnson.

Tank & Kimo(w/ Iceberg) vs. A.J. Steele & Nemesis(w/ Jeff G. Bailey):  This one starts out as an all-out brawl...and stays that way for several minutes.  The NWA Elite duo manages to isolate Kimo for a while, but Tank finally tags in and cleans house.  Steele attempts to break up a double-team by the good guys and Bailey distracts the ref while Steele takes Kimo out of the game.  However, that simply allows Iceberg to step in and deliver his side of his old double-team finish with Tank(side backbreaker with a legdrop off the middle rope).  Tank's pinfall is academic after that.

Team Hawkins(Adrian Hawkins, Salvatore Rinauro, Chad Parham, Patrick Bentley, & Caprice Coleman) vs. Team Rave Approved(Jimmy Rave, Jeremy Vain, Mike Posey, Corey Hollis, & Chip Day):  Hawkins vowed to bring some backup from Anarchy's past...quite a lineup.  Parham's a two-time Heavyweight Champion, Coleman held the T.V. Title, and Rinauro and Bentley were both tag champs.  The heels just barely wait out the lengthy ring introductions before going on the attack...cue chaos.  Most of the guys take it outside, leading to the faces standing tall in the ring for a moment.  The commentators do their best to run down the highlights of the face team, including Sal being a two-time Rookie Of The Year in the NWA Arena...look it up.  Hawkins takes a beating from the Rave Approved quintet...Sal gets a hot tag and hell breaks loose anew.  Rinauro gets quintuple-teamed, but Sal turns it around long enough for Rave to take a beating for his side.  Sal and Chad hit dives, but Rave drops Sal with an STO onto the ring apron!

Now the heels abuse Sal for a while...Hollis delivers an impressive gutwrench backcracker at one point.  Coleman gets the hot tag this time...cue the signature moves!  Coleman takes out everyone with a huge springboard plancha!  Caprice takes Rave back into the ring but gets cut off on the turnbuckles...superplex!  Swandive headbutt from Hollis, Macho Elbow from Day, Alabama Jam from Posey...Hawkins saves!  Rave takes out Coleman with the Ghanarea, then Vain hits the VKO and VDT v2.0...Sal saves.  Coleman tags in Hawkins...this is the longest finishing sequence EVER.  and Rave take it outside as Rinauro hits Rave with the Phoenix Fury Legdrop~!  Parham piledrives Posey!  Bentley kills Day with the Dark Driver(Canadian Destroyer)!  Coleman dusts off the Comatoser(powerbomb pickup into a piledriver drop) to take out Hollis!  Vain tries to sneak up on Coleman, but Hawkins re-enters and drops him with the Extreme Makeover for the victory!

NWA Anarchy TV #279

Just a little bit more of Hardcore Hell to go...your hosts are Greg Hunter & John Johnson.  I suspect they have recycled this show open...

The Reverend enlightens us...

Slim J vs. Azrael(w/ Dan Wilson), Barbed Wire Mayhem Match:  This WILL not be for the faint of heart...every bit of plunder in the ringside area is wrapped in the wire.  Wilson interferes freely(no-DQ!) and the referee is wearing heavy-duty work gloves for his own protection.  In a nutshell, these guys have been fighting on and off for about a decade and they're both bat-dung bonkers.  Slim personally wraps a set of ropes in barbed wire...only for Azrael to dropkick him into that side of the ring.  J fires up only to be sent into the wired set of ropes AGAIN.  A smash by Azrael misses and hits only a wire-wrapped chair...ow.  Slim gets a taste of a tennis racket unlike anything Jim Cornette ever carried.  Yes, both guys are bloody messes, why do you ask?  Azrael delivers a low blow for the hell of it, then wraps J's legs in the wire.  Slim comes back with a desperation Flapjack to drop Azrael on a barbed-wire chair!  They duel with barbed-wire bats...then stereo boots leave both men down.

J sends Azrael into the wire-wrapped ropes three times in a row, then wraps himself in the barbed wire...ow.  He lays a barbed-wire skateboard(yup) on Azrael, then drops an elbow onto him!  Azrael avoids a Stinger Splash and Slim J is hurting from the wire...Azrael delivers a killer Stone Cold Stunner out of the corner.  Steamboat Press(still wrapped in wire) gets a near-fall for Slim J.  Slim J attempts the Screwdriver On The Rocks, but gets blocked and takes a fireman's-carry spinebuster(a la Lucky Cannon's finisher) onto a barbed-wire trash can!  Cover...only gets 2 1/2.  Slim fights back from the top rope, hits the flying inverted DDT...for 2 1/2.  J sets up a barbed-wire table...sets up a Screwdriver On The Rocks from the turnbuckles...and gets blocked into a Michinoku Driver off the turnbuckles and through the table!  Azrael gets the three-count by virtue of being the one on top as both men are down after that move...

Se7en(w/ Jeff G. Bailey) vs. Shadow Jackson, cage match for the Heavyweight Title:  Se7en levels Shadow with a pump kick right out of the gate and repeatedly throws him into the cage...the champion dominates in a way rarely seen against Shadow.  Jackson is busted open and has yet to muster any significant offense.  Se7en climbs the cage but Shadow follows and they fight on the top rope...Jackson bashes him into the cage and delivers a superplex!  Shadow does the Hulk-Up and gives Se7en the grand tour of the cage walls...Stone Cold Stunner hits but only gets 2 1/2.  Jackson fires away only to run into a powerslam...for 2 1/2.  High knee sets up a powerbomb attempt, but Shadow double-legs out of it to hook a Boston crab!  Se7en is able to power out of it...chokeslam attempt is cut off by an eyerake and Shadow hits another Stunner, finally enough to keep Se7en down for three!  Shadow Jackson is a three-time Heavyweight Champion!

Bailey protests to the referee about...something or other, but promoter Jerry Palmer(in his last night on the job) forces him into the cage with axhandle in hand.  Jackson punches out the manager as Palmer brings in a chair...the roster comes out to observe as Palmer vows to do something Bailey would hate more than anything.  He threatens him with the axhandle and the chair...but he has something else that Jeff G. would hate more than anything:  A thank-you and a hug.  Bwahahaha.  Shadow gives him another fist to the face for fun as Bailey crawls out of the ring in shame.  Jackson thanks Palmer as we fade out on his era as owner/promoter...
