Carnage In Coldwater, As Chaos Reigns!

Three titles were on the line, as were pride and bragging rights, as Coldwater, Michigan's "Price Of Glory" promotion closed their sixth season with "Faded Glory 6."
It was a wild night, so let's get right to the action.

First match(part of the tournament for the Chaotic championship) saw the always capable Keith Creme take on Noah Lott. This was a scientific encounter that saw both competitors abide by the rules--a precedent ignored by the rest of the nights competitors. It started with a fine display of chain wrestling that saw both men move smoothly from hold to hold.

Noah Lott won finally with a version of a Facebuster, Lott and Creme shook hands. Lott advances and Creme exits the tournament.

Second bout, also part of the Chaotic Tournament, saw Mr. Nifty take on "Chill" Jack Verville. This one saw back and forth action, as Verville's technical prowess was offset by Nifty's rough tactics. Indeed, just when Verville was mounting a comeback, Mr. Nifty resorted to the dreaded "foriegn object," to chill Verville long enough for the three count. Nifty advances.

Next up was the "Hardcore Match" between Hardcore Harley, and Hardcore Harry. A disclaimer: I have to admit that I am not a fan of the hardcore genre--for too many reasons to go into here. Weapons ranging from a ballpeen hammer, and other assorted tools to a toilet seat were scattered about the ring. In a matter of minutes both men, and much of the ringside area were splattered with gore.

Finally (some would say mercifully) Harry whacked Harley with the toilet seat, draped it around his (Harley's)face and sat on it for the three count. It took fiteen minutes to clean up the blood and debris.

Next up was a tag match between "The House of Truth," Christian Able (recently from ROH) and Josh Raymond. Backstory was that POG champ, Jimmy Shalwin has been ducking Christian Able. Since the House of Truth couldn't get Shalwin, they settled for the "Believers," Mike Musso and Russ Jones, Shalwin's lackeys.

Able did a great job of firing up the crowd, but to no avail as Musso, used a "spear"--the maneuver, not an actual weapon, to gain the nod. Able was gracious in defeat, giving props to POG's strong roster, and then warned Shalwin: "it's not over between us!"

Next up was Noah Lott versus Mr. Nifty for the right to face Jonny Lawless for the vacant Chaotic Title. Lott won the match, but in the aftermath Nifty attacked Lott and attempted to injure his shouder!

Next up was interview segment that saw an over-the-top SI (Spencer Irvine) interview Mild Mannered Matt, and Mick Veasey, eventually attacking Veasey. Things looked really dark for Mick until...Frankie The Face ran in for the save and took on The SI in the next match. FTF made quick work of SI with a crossface submission.

Match number seven saw the so far winless Ryan Epic (lost to Sybil Starr in his last outing)take on his former tag partner, Adam Bueller. They started by teasing that Bueller was going to just "lay down" for Epic. Of course this broke down and the two settled into a "genuine" match with Ryan E. ultimatelt scoring the win.

Now it was time for intermission before the three big title bouts.

After the break it was time for the chaotic tile bout. POG owner, Johnny dynamo, came to the ring and announced that Noah Lott would be unable to wrestle so the chaotic title match would take place at the July show. Jonny Lawless demanded that he be immediately declared the champion by forfeit.

As Dynamo and Lawless went nose-to-nose, Noah Lott hobbled to the ring and said he was ready, despite his injured shoulder, to face Lawless. He proved he was ready by weathering Lawless' punishing offense, and nailed him with a sunset flip to win the chaotic title.

Next up was the tag title match between the seemingly unbeatable champs, the 400 plus pound Osyris and his partner the rugged Idol Heinze meeting the challenge of the former Kosher club partners, Joseph Schwartz, and Sean Tyler. This latter team was accompanied by VIP owner, Jamie P.

The crowd was divided, the champs are crowd favorites, and Schwartz and Tyler are likewise very popular. In truth things seemed to be going the champs way, when suddenly Jamie P.told Schwartz "lets get out of here."(or words to that effect) and the two left abandoning Tyler to the none too "tender mercies" of the champions. They quickly disposed of him and left the ring.

Schwartz, and Jamie P., quickly returned attacking Tyler and the ring announcer. Jamie P. launched into a tirade of recrimination over the way he had been treated when leaving POG, and he and Schwartz prepared to batter the out gunned announcer. Fortunately Osyris and Heinze rushed to make the timely save. Jamie P. vowed further retaliation as the newly minted heels fled.

This was a very effective heel turn in that no onr in the crowd saw it coming. It also sets up lots of future possibilities. Excellent booking.

Now the stage was set for the triple threat main event for the Price Of Glory championship. The match pitted champion Jimmy "The Hype" Shalwin against the top two challengers, the "masked monster" Jamie Eternal, and the much smaller Dollar. The three engaged in an intense contest until Dollar locked a cloverleaf submission on Shalwin, forcing him to tap out. The result has to be considered an upset, and Dollar may soon discover how "uneasy rests the head that wears the crown."

This concleded the evenings action, but laid the groundwork for for lots of future action. What more can a fan ask for?
