Weekend wrestling

ROH TV

-Commentator:  Kevin Kelly.
-The show was primarily a clipfest to highlight Heavyweight Champion Jay Lethal.
-From March 2015:  Jay Lethal(w/ Truth Martini) d. Alberto El Patrón to retain the T.V. Title after Martini hit Alberto with the Book Of Truth, giving Lethal the opening to finish with the Lethal Injection(rope-handspring Cutter) (9:11 aired).

SICW Wrestling Explosion

-Commentators:  Drew Abbenhaus & Herb Simmons.
-Terry Funk Title Tournament Semifinal: Ron Powers d. Ax Allwardt(w/ Big Daddy); the manager's distraction backfired as Powers hit Ax with his own chain to score the victory (5:07). (Kahagas received a bye to the finals due to the Kasa-Hargas double countout.)
-Attila Khan(w/ Travis Cook) d. Bobby D after two inverted DDTs.
-Tournament Final: Ron Powers d. "The Tokyo Monster" Kahagas(w/ Travis Cook) after the RKO to win the vacant Classic Title. The match was a wild brawl that spilled out of the ring and saw each man attack the other with steel chairs. Afterwards, Flash Flanagan entered the ring for a staredown with the new champion, but graciously handed over his title and beat down Travis Cook with his kendo stick. Travis brought out Khan and Hargas to back up Kahagas, but Terry Funk and Cowboy Bob Orton entered the fray and helped Powers and Flanagan clear the ring! After the dust settled, Flash handed the title belt to Funk in honor of his namesake tournament and Funk then presented the championship to the tournament winner Ron Powers!
-Backstage:  Travis Cook(w/ Attila Khan) protested that Kahagas only lost the title due to Powers' interference and had to go through a tournament in an attempt to get it back.  However, Khan is his secret weapon and he'll reclaim TRAVIS' championship on May 21st.
-Drew interviewed new Classic Champion Ron Powers and Cowboy Bob Orton about Powers' title win.
