Saturday IEW Results From Granite City, IL

-Ring announcer:  Tyler Cooley.  Referee:  Freddy Jack Funkhouser.
-Big Daddy Dion d. William C. Freiberg via octopus hold to retain the Midwest Title (7:20).
-"The One-Man Zoo" L-Ride vs. The Nightreaper ended in a no-contest when Brandon Espinosa interrupted the match (13:09).  This led to a heated argument between Espinosa and Chris Exodus, resulting in Heavyweight Champion Jodi Ultra being drawn into the drama as well.
-"The Airborne Magician" Billy McNeil d. Dallas Calloway after the Vanishing Elephant(advanced curbstomp from the second rope) (10:54).  With the win, McNeil became top contender to the Midwest Title and Big Daddy Dion made his way to the ring for a staredown with his next challenger.
-Sid Manson d. Johnny B(erkley)(w/ James Alan Marks) in a Three Stages Of Hell Match.  Falls:  (Standard Rules) Sid & Johnny brawled to a double countout (4:00).  (Table Match) Johnny dropped Sid through a table with a Skyhigh off the second rope, but the official ruled that both men went through the table and it wasd a draw (11:45).  (I Quit Match) Each man emptied his arsenal on the other in an attempt to make the other surrender..  Sid got the upper hand and attempted to smother Johnny with a plastic bag, then went to town on him with a kendo stick until Marks(who had been sent backstage) returned to ringside and threw in the towel for his man (26:17).
-Z-Miz interviewed "Thrashzilla" Justin Poole, which brought out "Big Nasty" Glenn WIlliams for a confrontation.  Both trained at the Ace Wrestling Academy, but Glenn graduated while Justin left the SICW promotion.  The war of words got heated and several wrestlers came out to keep the two separated...however, that led to Glenn hitting Justin from behind with his Ace Wrestling Academy graduation plaque.
-"Big Nasty" Glenn Williams d. Jake Prater with a double-underhook DDT (7:00).
-Malicious Intent("The Oracle Of The Hourglass" Ramsey Rancid & "The Victim Claimer" Alister Crow) fought "The Undeniable" Corey Andrews & Logan Simmons to a double countout to retain the Tag Team Titles (6:32).
-5* Jesse Jay, The Big Texan, & "Thrashzilla" Justin Poole d. Dysfunction(Heavyweight Champion Jodi Ultra, Brandon Espinosa, & "The Dragonfly" Chris Exodus).  Poole was still feeling the effects of Glenn Williams' earlier attack and was even escorted backstage at one point, but he re-emerged near the end of the bout only to be blindsided by Williams again.  The referee was knocked down and Dysfunction got the upper hand, but their own infighting resulted in their undoing.  In the end the champion was left alone with the former titleholder and Jay picked up the decisive win over Ultra with the fireman's-carry powerslam (17:41)!  The winner would choose the stipulation for their title rematch at IEW's next show on June 6th and Jay announced that it would be a Last Man Standing Match!

Looking for full results from these shows...thanks in advance!
