POI- Point of Impact Wrestling

[czwrestler]

bm: Opener and main evet tie
wm: Wasn't really anything bad about it, just the others were better, Jeff Hardy vs Sabu
BP: Styles post match
WP: not really
Plug; Posting WNG's second ppv final fight tomorrow.

comments: Reliving the classic POI moments brings things back

 

[_-_-Magnus-_-_]

BM: I really did like the opener, but I have to say the ME was my favorite. The Psycho Driver through the table was insane, though I think there could have been a little more of a build up to its inception rather than just saying "Super Dragon picks up Punk, goes onto the ring apron, and then hits a Psycho Driver through the table." Overall a good match though.

WM: Hardy vs. Sabu with a close second being the tag match. Neither of these did much for me, though I'm sure they are important to storyline progression.

BP: Age of the Fall and the Rednecks.

WP: Chris Hero. Very little personality displayed at all. I have never seen him cut a promo before and I don't know anymore about him now than I did before.

AC: An OK show from you. I must say your conveying of information is getting more and more entertaining. The story lines you are cranking out are wicked for sure. Keep up the good work, and don't worry, the No-Review Rut has happened to me too. Let's climb out of it together. XD

ALSO: Check out Full Throttle...it's INSANE this week!

 

[-TJ-]

Daniels vs. Kennedy...... Kennedy - Interesting here with the rules. Kennedy gets a warning right away shouldn't have been that way. It should have happened when Daniels got the control to show Kennedy's true heelness.

Age of Fall/Redneck wrecking crew/MCMG Promo - Hmmmmmm, your matches are good quality, but your promos lack of that. Show fan emotions and wrestler emotions. Everyone shouldn't get one word in. They should get a very angry conversation going and MCMG aren't the owners as far as i know. O_O

Redneck Wrecking Crew vs. Age of Fall - Not to familiar with Age of Fall, but i like the innovation of the two lol. Cade and Murdoch got owned. An ok match with a good storyline building up.

Chris Hero Promo - Shows a new personality abotu him, but as the same as all the other promos on this show, it lacks of fan reactions.

Jeff vs. Sabu - Ok the start. Sabu nails Jeff with a springboard crossbody and Jeff gets up first???????????? Taz beating the shit outta both of them can start a good three way feud if booked right, but the match in itself wasn't that good.

Raven's Promo - Very simply Raven asking for a match against Edge. For next week is the probelm. If Edge wasn't going to come out and accept it then Raven shouldn't have asked for next week.

Aries vs. Williams - Pretty solid match between the two. Aries had the win, but got sidetrack by Styles lol.

Styles' Post Match Promo - If you wanna be technical, Styles didn't interrupt the match. Aries just pay to much attention to him, but still the general idea of what Styles is doing is heard.

Main event - Wait? Your blow to blow style match writing doesn't do well with interference. Trust me, same with me when i started writing. How the hell does Joe get up like he wasn't affected by a 20 foot crossbody on him. Other then some of the stuff it was a great match.

BM - Opener

BP - Styles

Overall Rate - For your style of writing, i give you a 7/10.

Cheap Plug - Go check out RPW's return show when you have the chance, i'm kinda in the no review rut myself and I'll try to review your next show.

 

[xtremebadass]

BM: For me, Super Dragon vs. CM Punk took the cake. It was a real Indy feel to it, which I love in BTB. Just an overall great match

WM: Hardy and Sabu was quite short, but still good none the less

BP: Age of the Fall's was pretty good

WP: N/A

Love to see your matches are getting more lengthy, hope to see your next show up soon. Keep it going and thanks for the review. Always appreciate it

 

[Lashleyâ„¢]

BM: Has to be the opening match for me, I love Kennedy and I loved this match. Very good stipulation, was a great read, too bad Kennedy didn't win the match.

WM: Hardy v Sabu, it was too short.

BP: Age of the Fall's was the only one that stood out for me.

WP: Ravens, way to short.

Really good show to be honest, some things were a little too short, but nothing too bad. Nice first show {1st show I've read}. Cheap plug: I have a NEW BTB if ya wanna check it out.

 

[comicgeekelly]

I went with a somewhat new direction with POI Previews. I've added a host and promos to the show. Tell me what you think.

POI Wrestling episode 28 Preview​

Please welcome the new host of POI previews; Dave Prazak.

Prazak: Hello and welcome to POI previews. What a brawl we saw between CM Punk and Super Dragon. Dragon came out on top with some help from Rob Van Dam. CM Punk wanted some time to talk on this preview and it was granted.

CM Punk: Rob Van Dam, why do you think that you belong in the main event? I guess the drugs have finally killed every brain cell in your head. You attacked me with the VanDaminator, were you trying to prove a point? I am a two time POI champion, while you, you’re just a tag team champion. You can’t keep up with guys like me and Joe, but if you want a match against me you’ve got it. I’m going to win next week because straight edge means that I’m better than you.

Prazak: Along with that match Christopher Daniels and Ken Kennedy will meet in their second match in this best of five series. This match will be a tables match. Also next week the Motor City Machine Guns’ Chris Sabin will face the Age of the Fall’s Tyler Black. Now we will see another member of the Age of the Fall in action in this weeks bonus match. This is a wild match to say the least.

Match 1: Vampiro vs. Paul London
On his way down to the ring, London is attacked from behind by Vampiro. The Age of the Fall member hits a backbreaker on London before whipping him into the steel steps. Vampiro grabs London by the throat and chokeslams him into the crowd. Vampiro grabs a microphone and heads into the ring.
Vampiro: People have been asking me why I joined the Age of the Fall and I figured that I’d take some time now to answer that question. I joined them because I know when I see talent. Jimmy and Tyler are some of the best wrestlers today why not join them and dominate POI.
Paul London gets into the ring and climbs to the top rope. London hits a cross body on Vampiro. London brings Vampiro to his feet and hits a dragon suplex. When Vampiro gets to his feet London goes for a superkick. Vampiro catches his boot, picks him up and hits a sidewalk slam. Vampiro goes for the pin, but London kicks out at 2. Vampiro picks up London and heads to the top rope. He goes for a powerbomb, but London reverses it into a Frankensteiner. London goes for the pin, but Vampiro kicks out at 2. London goes to the top rope and goes for a 450. Vampiro moves out of the way causing London to crash and burn. Vampiro picks up London and sets him up for the tombstone piledriver. London rolls him up and gets the three count. Paul London gets an upset victory over Vampiro.

Prazak: Along with the matches mentioned before Low Ki will take on Jack Evans in an IC Title Tournament match. Also Taz will Challenge Jeff Hardy for the Hardcore title. I have also been told that commissioner Joey Styles has three big announcements to make. See all this and more on the next edition of POI Wrestling.

 

[Headfirst For Hardcore]

looks like a good show coming up, and having AOTF on your roster seems great. Things seem to be shaping up now, and the promos were good too in this preview. Lol at Prazak being annoucner, I hate him.

 

[comicgeekelly]

Here it is POI Episode 28. If you read please leave a review and I'll try to get back to you with a review of my own. Thanks for getting POI the #5 spot on the Power 10.

That match will also be the first match in a Survival of the Fittest tournament for the soon to be POI World Title. Now lets move onto our next match.

The Age of the Fall’s music hits and they walk to the ring. Vampiro grabs a microphone.

Vampiro: Paul London, last week you got lucky. This week on previews I want a rematch.

The Motor City Machine Gun’s walk out to the entrance ramp.

Chris Sabin: So you lost big deal. Vampiro, don’t worry you won’t be the only loser in the Age of the Fall after my match with Tyler.

The Machine Guns rush the ring and the match begins.

Match 2: Chris Sabin vs. Tyler Black
Sabin and Shelley hit the ring and immediately clothesline Jimmy Jacobs over the top rope. Vampiro goes for a clothesline of his own on Shelley, but Shelley ducks and he and Sabin back body drop Vampiro to the outside. Black catches Sabin with an elbow to the face while Shelley climbs to the top turnbuckle. Shelley jumps off the turnbuckle and takes down Jacobs and Vampiro with a flying cross body. Black whips Sabin into the corner and begins to use chop after chop on him. Sabin fights his way out of the corner with a kick to the stomach. Sabin whips Black into the ropes. On his bounce back Tyler is taken down with a head scissors by Sabin. On the outside Jacobs slams Shelley’s head into the announce table. Back in the ring Sabin hits a DDT on Black.

Chris Hero attacks Shelley from behind. Hero kicks Shelley in the gut, sets him up, and gives him the Heroes Welcome.

Kennedy whips him into the guard rail before taking a fans chair. Daniels has the chair slammed into his back.

After the match Jeff Hardy is helped to the back by the EMT’s. Then once it is cleared Homicide walks to the ring.

Homicide: When I got Rey Mysterio kicked out of the company I finally got the monkey off my back. Now I only want one thing, the POI championship. Joey, I want to get into this Survival of the Fittest Tournament that you just announced. I don’t care who I have to face to get in, just make it happen.

CM Punk’s music hits and he walks to the ring.

CM Punk: Homicide, Why even enter the Tournament, it’s a hopeless cause. Both you and Rob Van Dam have one thing in common; I’m better than you are. Your minds have been destroyed by drugs and alcohol. I’m straightedge and that makes me better than you. Now get the hell out of my ring, I’ve got a match now.

Homicide catches CM Punk off guard with the Gringo Cutter. Homicide leaves the ring as Rob Van Dam’s music hits. Van Dam walks into the ring while CM Punk is just getting to his feet.

Van Dam passes out, making Punk the winner of the match.

CM Punk has his hand raised in victory as the show closes.

(end episode 28)

 

[Tsaalyo Phoenix]

BM: Christopher Daniels vs. Ken Kennedy. The more extreme the match type, the better. Would have been more fun to Green Bay Plunge Daniels through the table though.
WM:
BP: Edge, Albright, and Raven. Most violent, therefore best.
WP:

As you'll quickly learn, i'm wooed by brutality.

 

[Headfirst For Hardcore]

BM - Punk vs RVD was pretty good, and the promo before it with Homicide was classic CM Punk, way in character against two people with histories of drugs and stuff like that. Surprising seeing a win from Punk though, after the Cutter from Cide.

WM - Hardy vs Taz because of the interference from Sabu, kinda ruined the match.

BP - Homicide and Punk's promo like I said above was pretty good.

WP - Shelley's promo at the end was kinda bland, but I want to see who they could bring in, maybe BJ Whitmer?

AC - This was a pretty nice show with lots of feuds going through. The matches and promos are improving, and the storyline/storytelling work is good as always. Things are looking good at this point, I'm looking forward to more.

Then in the second semi final match Petey Williams will take on Low Ki. The winners of these two matches will meet in the main event for the IC Title. Last week on POI Previews we saw Paul London upset Vampiro and win in their match. Now Vampiro wanted a rematch and London accepted. Let's go to this weeks bonus match.

Vampiro: You’ve got a deal.

Dave Prazak: Well you heard it, next week on POI previews it will be Paul London vs. Vampiro in their third meeting. Now POI newcomer Mike Quackenbush wanted some time to speak.

Quackenbush: Ever since Joey Styles announced that POI was going to Japan I wanted to issue this challenge. Tiger Mask IV, last time that we had a match I won after I ripped off your mask. I’m not proud of what I did, but Tiger Mask I want another match with you. I want to cement my spot in POI and beating you again will do it.

Dave Prazak: It has been confirmed that Mike Quackenbush will be meeting Tiger Mask IV in a match when POI goes to Japan. Also on the next POI Christopher Daniels will take on Ken Kennedy in a street fight. All that and much more will happen on POI’s 29th episode.

 

[Qwake]

BM: Daniels/Kennedy, anice good match and quite brutal at that. I like both wrestlers which made it even better for me. Punk Vs RVD was also good.

WM: Hardy/Tazz for the exact same reason as HFH, it ruined it imo.

BP: The opening promo was pretty good, I liked the attack but also Punk/Homicides was pretty good. Nice job.

WP: Not sure, probably the Shelley promo but it was still quite interesting...

AC: Pretty good show, the matches were interesting and pretty good, I will try and check out your next show which also looks alright.

CP: Check out IPW if you want, first show is up.

 

[comicgeekelly]

After what happened when Hero attacked Shelley last week Shelley refuses to shake the hand of Hero. They lock up and Hero powers Shelley into the corner.

Match 3: Christopher Daniels vs. Ken Kennedy in a street fight
After tying up the best of 5 series one to one, Kennedy appears very confident. Daniels music plays, but he doesn’t come to the ring. Kennedy walks to the back with a smile on his face. He comes back out to the ring dragging a knocked out and bloodied Christopher Daniels. Kennedy brings Daniels into the ring and the ref reluctantly rings the bell. Kennedy pins Daniels and gets the 3 count. Kennedy grabs a microphone.

Kennedy: And people said that it would be hard to beat Daniels. All I had to do was use my head to win this one. That’s something that none of you idiots know how to do. I am the smartest wrestler in this company. Daniels, remember the next time that I win, I get my title shot.

Kennedy brings Daniels to his feet before hitting the Mic Check. Kennedy begins to taunt Daniels with random insults as the shot cuts to the back where Dave Prazak is with Low Ki.

Prazak: Low Ki, tonight you have a chance to become the first two time IC champion. What are your thoughts on this match?

Low Ki: I don’t have much to say about this, but I do have to say one thing. Chris Hero will not walk out of this building champion.

Samoa Joe’s music hits and he walks out to the ring.

Joe: Next week in Japan I’m defending the POI championship against KENTA. More importantly that’s the beginning of the Survival of the Fittest Tournament. KENTA is a great wrestler, but I’m just a little bit better. I know that I’m in this tournament. What I don’t know is who else is in it.

Nigel McGuinness’ music hits and he walks to the ring.

Nigel: Well sunshine, I know that I’m in that tournament. Joe, when I joined POI the first thing that I wanted to accomplish was to get that POI championship.

Rob Van Dam’s music hits and he walks to the ring.

RVD: Nigel, last time that I checked you haven’t even had a match in POI yet. What makes you think that you deserve a title shot?

Nigel: The first day that I was here I kicked your yankee a**.

RVD: Wanna try and do it again?

They stand off and Nigel headbuts RVD, knocking him back. Van Dam bounces off the ropes and hits an enzuigiri on Nigel. McGuinness slams into Joe before giving him a European uppercut. Joe attacks Nigel with a flurry of punches and slaps until McGuinness escapes from the ring. Then Joe turns to RVD, grabs him, and tosses him out of the ring. Joey Styles walks onto the entrance ramp.

Joey: I’ve decided that the second Survival of the Fittest qualifying match will be Rob Van Dam vs. Nigel McGuinness. Now clear the ring, we’ve got an IC title match coming up.

The two IC Title Tournament finalists make their way to the ring.

Dave Prazak: The following contest is your main event and is for the Intercontinental Championship. The contender to my left weighs in at 240 pounds and hails from Metropolis. He is Chris Hero. The man on my right weighs in at 180 pounds and hails from Brooklyn New York. He is Low Ki.

Hero goes for the pin and he gets the 3 count. Chris Hero has just won the tournament and the IC championship. Claudio Castagnoli comes to the ring to celebrate with Hero as the show closes.

(end episode 29)

 

[Chuck Taylor's Grenade]

BM: Low Ki vs. Hero was a great match to end the IC title tournament. I thought Hero had it won after the table spot.

WM: Kennedy vs. Daniels. Not really a match just a pin fall after a prematch beatdown.

BP: Joe, Nigel and RVD. Sets up Nigel vs. RVD and also hypes next week's match with Joe and KENTA

WP: Low Ki and Hero's post match promos weren't as developed and basically said the same thing that each person was walking out as champion.

AC: Good show to end the IC Title Tournament on. Chris Hero should be a good champion. Daniels should win the next match to set up the deciding fifth match. Joe and KENTA should be brutally stiff. Can't wait.

POI Episode 30 Preview​

Dave Prazak: Hello and welcome to POI Previews. On the next episode of POI we are going to make history with our first show out of the states in Japan. In the main event the POI Championship will become the POI World Title when Samoa Joe defends his title against KENTA. Also two powerhouses will go head to head when Morishima takes on Taz. Now it is time for this weeks bonus match. In the past two weeks Paul London and Vampiro have had two matches. They each have won one of them, now this match will decide who the better man is.

Match 1: Vampiro vs. Paul London
This week the match actually starts in the ring. They lock up and Vampiro overpowers London, shoving him to the mat. London gets up fast and kicks Vampiro’s legs out from under him. London drops an elbow on the back and spine of Vampiro. London bounces off the ropes and baseball slides, kicking Vampiro in the face. London goes to the top rope and waits for Vampiro to stand up. Vampiro gets up and slams into the ropes, causing London to crotch himself on the top rope. Vampiro climbs to the second rope, grabs London, and slams him into the mat with a superplex. Vampiro goes for the pin, but only gets a 2 count. Vampiro brings London to his feet before whipping him into the ropes. London springboards off the ropes and hits an enzugiri. London hits a facebuster on Vampiro before setting him up on the mat. London goes up to the top rope and attempts a 450. Vampiro moves out of the way causing London to crash into the mat. Vampiro picks up London and hits the Tombstone piledriver. Vampiro goes for the pin and he gets the 3 count.

Dave Prazak: Next week in Japan there will be a huge tag match. It will be Austin Aries and Jushin “Thunderâ€￾ Liger going up against AJ Styles and the Great Muta in a no disqualification tag tram match. Then in the show opener Mike Quackenbush will face Tiger Mask IV. See all this and more next week when POI goes to Japan.
