MMWA Special Comment

Another packed house at South Broadway...to the point where it was almost impossible to find a seat and some people had trouble seeing the action. In terms of business, I guess that's a nice problem to have.

I got to see Flaming Freddie Fury for the first time...yay? It seems redundant to have Fury on the roster at the same time as Brandon Espinosa's current character incarnation.

Speaking of which, Espinosa seemed to be a face in previous months, but he returned to his heelish ways by costing A.J. Williams his match against Jimmy D. Jimmy got booed enough after the match that he did a heel promo in response...which means Phil E. Blunt is returning a face.

Dave Vaughn had been MIA from South Broadway for several months due to Missouri licensing issues...they officially announced that he has become "exclusive to SICW" and the T.V. Title was vacated as a result.

I thought they had said last month that the Tag Team Title situation would be settled this month...but there was no sign of the belts in the Kings-Lumberjacks match. Good setup for a program between the only two teams in the group, at any rate.

Stevie K and Big Texan had a better match this month than last month and they had a decisive finish this time around.

Wilder wins! Wilder wins! Wilder wins!

Gary had been Heavyweight Champion for close to a year so I guess he was due to drop the belt...only odd in the sense that he's on the local KDHX billboards with the title in tow. Rematch imminent, of course. Rough month for Gary as he lost his challenge against SICW Classic Champion Ricky Cruz as well and now has lost the MMWA belt to Dave Osborne. The two King Of St. Louis Cable tournament winners have both gone on to capture the Heavyweight Title(it was Espinosa the previous year).

Upcoming: SICW in Fairmont City next weekend...don't think there's anything local in the first week of March. After that, there's SICW and MMWA...won't make it to MECW due to a comedy show. The last weekend of March has a new group(CSCW) running in Swansea so I'll probably be checking that out.
