NWA Anarchy TV #348

Commentators:  Tim E.D. & Bret(t) Wolverton.

Dan Wilson(w/ Tag Team Champions Azrael & Slim J) enlightens us to start the show...both Hate Junkies are out with injuries thanks to the Urban Assault Squad.  The Reverend notes the past issues that he and Azrael had with Slim J, but that feud built mutual respect and they're a strong team as a result.  In the words of the great prophet Alice Cooper:  No more Mr. Nice Guy.

Seth Delay & Anthony Henry vs. Andrew Pendleton III & The Black Butler:  We haven't see much of the masked butler yet.  Delay rallies against AP3 after a hot tag but the Butler gets involved, bringing Henry in to dispose of the masked man with a Falcon Arrow backbreaker.  In the confusion, Bobby Moore runs out and bashes Delay with his loaded elbowpad...that allows Pendleton to get the tainted three-count.

Wolverton interviews Heavyweight Champion Shaun Tempers about his impending title defense against Brodie Ray Chase...he calls Brodie to the ring to address him in person.  Tempers trashes him endlessly, vowing to "put Old Yeller down for good".  Chase comments on being in the ring with legends in the business...he may be older, but he's got an experience edge and believes he can beat Tempers for that belt.

Azrael & Slim J(w/ Dan Wilson) vs. The Urban Assault Squad(w/ Jerry Palmer & Miss Rachel) for the Tag Team Titles:  The UAS members hide near the entranceway to ambush the champs but it doesn't work out as Slim J dives off the apron onto both Shadow Jackson and Nemesis.  Azrael attacks on the floor and Slim tops himself with a huge corkscrew plancha off the top rope!  NOW we officially start the match as Azrael & J double-team Shadow in the ring...oh yeah, Palmer-appointed senior official is your referee.

A blind tag to Nemesis turns the tide in a hurry as he mows down Slim with a big clothesline.  J tries to fight back but Nemesis plants him with a Dominator and Azrael has to break up the pin attempt.  Slim takes a ton of abuse but fights out of a Stunner and finally tags Azrael!  Nemesis takes a double-team beating from the champs but Palmer distracts the ref as Azrael has Nemesis pinned.  Shadow brings in Palmer's axhandle and nails Azrael across the back...so The Rev takes matters into his own hands and bashes Nemesis with the Staff Of Righteousness before he can make the pin.  The Urban Assault Squad wins by DQ, but The Rev saved the belts for his team in the process.
