NWA Anarchy TV #289

Your hosts are Tim E.D. & John Johnson.

Brodie Ray Chase vs. Jeff Lewis for the T.V. Title: These two fought a few weeks ago with Chase emerging victorious in a close matchup. Both men are two-time holders of this particular belt...in fact, Lewis was the first holder of the Anarchy Television Championship. Lewis held the Anarchy Heavyweight Title at one time, so his resume is rather stacked. The two trade some close near-falls in the closing minutes of the matchup...but Lewis sneaks in a Flair pin with feet on the ropes to win the title for the third time! Johnny Dangerous runs out to tell the referee what happened and the official seems to call for a restart, but Lewis decks the referee! Other refs come out to check on the original official...meanwhile, Lewis BELTs Brodie and hits him with the Roll Of The Credits. Guess that restart didn't take and the title change is official...

Mega Rumble: Winner gets a title shot of his choice...eliminations are by pinfall, submission, or being thrown over the top rope to the floor. #1 is C.B. Gibson, #2 is the debuting Nick Wilson. Tim E.D. fills us in on the T.V. Title situation...since the match WAS restarted and had a no-contest finish, that means Brodie Ray Chase IS still the T.V. Champion. #3 is Chris Mayne, giving Johnson a proverbial horse in the race and putting Gibson at a disadvantage.

#4 is Tommy Daniels and he comes to the aid of his tag team partner. #5 is Jacoby Boykins, putting both Ambassadors in the match and persuading Johnson to briefly head to ringside for "moral support". Boykins dumps Gibson with little trouble, then sends Daniels out in short order. Wilson tries to call a truce but falls victim to the powerbomb/backcracker combo...Mayne pins him just as #6(Johnny Dangerous) hits the ring.

The numbers are against Dangerous and he takes a beating...#7 is Dangerous' partner Lane Vasser(coincidence~!). The momentum swings back and forth until Vasser clotheslines Mayne out! Boykins takes a brief double-team beating...#8 is Bo Newsom and he gets Dangerous with the SMALL PACKAGE~! to eliminate him. Bo bides his time on the ring apron as Vasser and Boykins fight it out...a suplex battle lands Vasser on the apron and Boykins sends Lane FLYING to the floor with a huge shoulderblock. The final entrant(#9) is Skirra Corvus and he goes on offense against Newsom, but Boykins cuts him off. Corvus low-bridges Boykins who lands on the apron, but a miscue by Newsom sends Jacoby to the floor! That leaves Corvus and Newsom...Bo nearly wins with a spinebuster, but Corvus flips out of a back suplex attempt and maneuvers straight into the Graveyard Shift(his version of the curbstomp) for the three-count and victory!

Shaun Tempers vs. Steven Walters for the NWA North American Title: YAY WRESTLING~! to start...we're reminded that Walters upset Tempers shortly before Shaun won the belt. Walters goes for several quick pinning combinations in the early going...when Walters attempts a backslide, Tempers bails out of the ring(that's how Walters beat him in the previous match...PSYCHOLOGY~!). Steven follows him out with a suicide dive, but Tempers is able to turn things around not long after that. Johnson reminds us that while Walters has been known as a tag team competitor with The New Wave, he took then-NWA National Heavyweight Champion Phil Shatter to the limit not that long ago. (Where DID Derrick Driver disappear to, anyway?)

Walters goes into El Big Comeback, getting a close near-fall with a Steamboat Press. Tempers runs Walters back into the corner and follows up with a Northern Lights suplex(w/ leg hook)...for two. Walters gets in an O'Connor Roll...for two, and the kickout sends him into the turnbuckles. Rude Awakening is nearly countered into a backslide but Tempers counters out of THAT into an attempted cobra clutch/Temper-Pedic...Walters runs him into the turnbuckles to escape that, then nails the jumping enzuigiri. Walters attempts the backslide but Tempers uses the turnbuckles to his advantage once again, then FINALLY hits the Rude Awakening to win and retain the title.
