Well this is certainly not like any other wrestling "venue" I've been to. Must have been about 150 people in here tops, most seemed like they were here just for the cheap beer though.
Opener was a triangle tag match featuring the Hooliganz, The Embassy & Generation Next. Prince Nana had beer spilt on him when leading Rave & Abyss to the ring, which almost led to Abyss taking the fan out.
Lots high flying here, with Abyss man handling The Hooliganz & Evans. Finish came after Abyss countered an attempted Sliced Bread #2 on Rave into Shock Treatment followed by Greetings From Ghana by Rave, who insisted on getting the win. Clear who the star player of this team is and who the hired gun is.
Hiroshi Tanahashi vs. Johnny Gargano was next. Happy hour was started during the middle of this contest so there was a bit of a fan exodus to the bar half way through. Shame as this was a fun wrestling match. Gargano got the win with a roll up.
Finlay & Dave Taylor vs. Mike Quackenbush & Eddie Kingston was easily the best match up until this point. Quack kept the match contained early on by matching Finlay & Taylor hold for hold in the British wrestling style. Sadly this didn't seem to entertain the audience, leading to one jackass getting in the ring to complain. He got punched in the nose by Finlay and was eventually thrown out the bar. The match broke down not long after, with Kingston thriving in this new environment. Finlay got the win for his team following an Air Raid Crash on Kingston.
First match in the league of Flippy Guys now, with Kalisto vs. Amazing Red. Very fast paced match with some great near falls. After 15 minutes there was no winner so the bar owner called for the bell. It appears that's going to be the time limit in this thing going forward. Strange start to the league.
Before the next match Low Ki grabbed the mic to complain about not having a match for the show, saying that no one in the back is brave enough to face him in this environment. He also starred down a couple of the more vocal fans, shutting them up for a bit.
Then it was time for Mysterio/Ricochet. After the previous match there was a lot more impetus to end this one fast, with Mysterio getting the win following the West Coast Pop in about 10 minutes. Great match.
8 man tag team match time, with Mount Rushmore vs. the combination of The Unbreakable Machines, Chris Masters & Shinsuke Nakamura. A lot of Buck manhandling and Adam Cole in particular seemed to incur the wrath of Nakamura. Miscommunication on the face side of things led to a quadruple superkick on Elgin giving the win the Mount Rushmore. Post match, Brian Cage & Chris Masters attacked Michael Elgin, seemingly ending the Unbreakable Machines and starting their own team.
Main event was a blockbuster tag match. Colt Cabana stopped to chat up one of the bar girls during his entrance, and kept getting her attention throughout the match. Finish came after Okada abandoned Joe, leading to Cabana hitting Git Ta Bed followed by Punk hitting Go To Sleep.
Following the match, Okada cut a promo, but it was all in Japanese so not a single person here understood it. This led to a lot of booing, with one disgraceful fan even calling him a f**king chink.
Since the show seemed to end on a bit of a down note, the bar owner sent Cabana back out to entertain the crowd, as a sad atmosphere isn't good for drink sales apparently. The promo was mostly Cabana hitting on that bar girl again.
All in all, this show was certainly something. Can't fault the guys in the ring, but the venue and fans are god awful.
