2/29 WRESTLING OPEN LIVE REPORT FROM WORCESTER, MA

Wrestling Open Week 113

2/29/24

The Jumbo Grand Prix may be over but we are ready to LEAP onto the road for a very interesting month coming up for Wrestling Open and Beyond as a whole.

Spotlight Match: Hammer Tunis vs “The Handyman” Jake Gray 

Gray is the most recent graduate of the BIO Pro Wrestling School. I think it’s great that Gray comes out wielding a hammer against Tunis. Lol.    Gray gets Tunis in a hammer lock. Hammer is impressed but it’s time to take back over. Gray tries the ten punches but Tunis snake eyes him. Hammer punishing this kid. Spine buster for two. Jake throwing double axe handles! Jake flies through the air but eats a knee. Reverse ddt puts the handyman away.

Winner: Hammer Tunis

Is Brother Greatness back on commentary or is he still on the injured list? I see Paul Crockett and Denver Colorado back on commentary. Lauren St. James is your announcer. Let’s do this!

Match 1: Danny Miles vs Rex Lawless (w/ RJ Rude)

Danny thinks he’s gonna overpower the pectoral Poseidon. Not so much. Rex just eats these chops and crushes Danny with a single blow. Big running gut kick in the corner and a full Nelson backbreaker for two. Unfortunately, Miles slips free and chop blocks the big man. This is how it goes. Danny swarming that limb as we tell him how we feel. RJ trying to cheer his partner back into the fight. Miles faked into the buckles and Rex is coming back. Huge uranage! Big boot! Modified swinging flatliner. Miles fights away from the chokebomb, slides out and decks RJ. Of course, Rude hits the apron and the ref is distracted…Miles rakes the eyes and hits a brain buster on the big man for the win. Rex and RJ are furious at each other. They work it out….but something is going sour there.

Winner: Danny Miles

Percy Ryan is back. He reminds us how he’s been trying to change people’s lives. Like CPA…who is here! It’s tax season! Percy says it’s time for CPA to pay for not taking his advice. He brings out the most handsome man in Wrestling Open, J George. What. CPA is given the clapboard and is told to stand back as JGeorge shows him how to win…against Bobby Buffet!

Match 2: Bobby Buffet vs JGeorge (w/ Percy Ryan & CPA)

Why does Percy look like he robbed a grandma’s house and stole her curtains? Ryan shoves CPA into Buffet and JGeorge immediately swarms his opponent. The beatdown continues as Percy tries to instruct CPA in the ways of ruthless aggression. Or something. Percy tries to distract the ref…but JGeorge sucks so much that he wipes out in the ropes and Bobby takes over with a swinging side slam. Percy distracts the ref again. CPA is supposed to crack Bobby with the clapboard? He doesn’t want to. JGeorge is furious and gets CPA’s face…Buffet with the rollup and the three!

Winner: Bobby Buffet

Of course, Percy is big mad. He knew CPA wouldn’t help. And that’s why he brought in Steven Stetson to punish him. 

Match 3: CPA vs Steve Stetson (w/ Danny Miles and Hammer Tunis) 

Stetson is well hated in the city of Worcester. He’s pummeling CPA early. The accountant fires up…in his particular way. Which means it lasts about thirty seconds and Stetson boots him down. CPA with a lariat outta nowhere! Rip the shirt! Form 1099! Only a two. I’m shocked that got a two. CPA is gonna crunch some numbers? Stetson fights off but CPA hits a drop down that WORKS! He tries a 1099 again, the ranch with the interference and Stetson hits a WWF STYLE Burning Hammer for the win. Ugh.

Winner: Steve Stetson

Stetson is mad that he lost the Jumbo Grand Prix. He’s thrilled about how he took out the Church of Greatness. Brother Greatness is right through the curtain! He’s back! He does the Pulp Fiction verse! He preaches some holy vengeance upon the Ranch. Miles and Hammer tries to take of the good Brother but Tyree Taylor makes them stop in their tracks. Sammy Diaz off the top with a crossbody body to Stetson. The church chases the ranch away….FOR THE CHURCH! Omg we cheer for the church now. What is happening. 

Match 4: Shannon LaVangie (w/ Paris Van Dale) vs Notorious Mimi

Shannon with a disrespectful slap but that annoys the hell out of pro wrestling’s angel. Mimi with a series of hangman’s knees. Is Paris on commentary? Oh god, I feel bad for the ears of the IWTV audience. Mimi with a club to the gut. Shannon with a handspring legdrop. Mimi trying for the rollup but Shannon pops her up for a cutter. Shannon’s bleeding from the mouth. Yakuza kick to Mimi. Dropkick! We have a kind of…rough sequence. Mimi trying to finish this off but Shannon keeps kicking out or getting her feet on the ropes. Shannon gets the win with a twisted bliss. 

Winner: Shannon LaVangie

 Match 5: Swipe Right (Brad Baylor & Ricky Smokes) vs Pedro Dones & Dezmond Cole

Dones and Boofa are running over the swipe boys. They go for a double dive but Ricky blasts Dez with a head kick. Swipe Right beating down the shot caller. Baylor with a front choke on Dones and a powerslam cuts off his escape. Dones with a last ditch attempt and gets to Cole. Boofa in wild with sweeps and kicks! Brad flying in? Kicked to the floor! Rolling legdrop to Ricky for two. Swining slam to boofa, Dones makes the save. Both teams brawling through the final minute! Dones with a crossbody cactus clothesline to Smokes! Swanton to Baylor! Brad kicks out! Double dive to Swipe Right as the ten minute time limit expires. Both team brawl to the back. We will see this again. Good.

Winners: Time Limit Draw

 Dustin Waller is out here! He talks about his self doubt, as it’s been creeping in lately. He may have gone 0-2 in the JGP…he won against Marcus Mathers last week. Kylon King was supposed to fight Alec Price tonight…but King is not cleared to wrestle tonight and Dustin wants to get his win back. He wants the best Alec Price that is here. And the northeast beast blows through the curtain!

Match 6: Dustin Waller vs Alec Price

Hello, it seems we went to the show stealer store and came home with a show stealer. Whooooodathubkit? Fast sequences, taunting, counters, reversals, this is already a blast. Dustin hot shots Price on a springboard….Flash absolutely WANTS this. Hard whips to the buckles, enough to keep Price down for a short count. Price goes for a dragon suplex….Dustin with the counter and great strikes. Price blocks the handspring cutter. Twist to a butterfly German! Misdirect! Price tries the one more time…Flash with the swerve and falcon arrow! Springboard…Price ducks but rebounds into a handspring cutter! Kick out! Flash splash misses! Price blocked, eats a mizline! Springboard clothesline for two! Flash is upset at the count. He’s losing focus and he turns into a Price superkick. Suuuuuuprize kick! Flash is cold for the three…oh nooooooo! This was an awesome sprint.

Winner: Alec Price

Price picks Dustin up and offers a handshake. Dustin walks away from it. He’s too frustrated to be friends right now. Hey, Mathers swallowed his pride last week…why can’t Flash?

Main Event: Big Business (Brad Hollister & TJ Crawford) vs Jermaine Marbury & Fancy Ryan Clancy

Of course, Brad is back and has words for us. Blah blah blah he’s the world’s best dad. More like Deadbeat Brad. These two teams have a LOTTTTT OF HATE for each other. Brad is trying to show up his upstart challenger and dismiss the rumors that he shouldn’t have won a couple weeks ago. TJ is FURIOUS at his loss in the finals of the Jumbo Grand Prix against Clancy. Big Business goes on the the attack but Clancy and Marbury hit the big dive. TJ taking an early beating but big business starts to run this. Brad with a hip attack and snap suplex! TJ again but Brad chokes Clancy from the outside. Benny is cheering for D Fence but Clancy might be F’d. Big German from the Open champ for two. Ran goes for the fancy splash and absolutely eats s***. Tag to Marbury! He swerves and breaks the ankle of Brad! Kobe! Code red! Kick out! TJ with blind side and Marbury is taking a kickin’. They try a double suplex but Marbury escapes and tags to Fancy! Clancy on a tear..he tries to get a second win on TJ but Bacon is right there to make intercede. Marbury in but he gets tossed and Clancy is left to fight it two on one. Big bacon powerbomb! TJ with the cover, kickout! Marbury sweeps Brad off the apron! Clancy landing shots on TJ! Double dropkick on big Buisness! Double foot on the ropes! Bacon rolls out..Marbury follows but gets posted. Clancy and TJ left to square off. TJ misses the silver bullet! Flying knee! Side Russian! Bacon runs in and tackles Clancy! Ref Tyler tries to count Brad off but he gets thrown to the mat! The ref calls for the bell!

Winners: Marbury & Clancy (by DQ) 

 Big Business trying to continue a beatdown but Marbury is back and  they start dropping bombs. Big Business with a double low blow. Bacon wants a mic. “You’re a contender? Next week, you get your shot in the first ever Malice at the Palace match!”
