Sidenotes:

Good Opener

i was very surprised the winner in all of the first round winners

One of the greatest shows that NYWC ever had

Return of Whipwreck!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think the nywc security is too much , during the White trash bash i got hit with a mouse , ryan rush threw a garbage can at me in the crowd, and i got a pie tin thrown at me , i was fine with this i had no problem until i threw the tin back and security had to get in my face and say that they would kick me out

sooooo happy Papadon won the title , maverick is turning into the John Cena in WWE, it was a great match

did i mention how great this show was??!!!

again after alex won the title and everyone was throwing bottles into the ring someone shaked a can of soda opened it and sprayed it in the ring on alex, it was very funny , and security went way to hard, and jumped on him and shoved him out the door, how come they didnt kick anyone else out the door

but other wise awesome show!

Let me start out by saying that I was considering going to the JAPW show tonight instead but thought NYWC had a stacked lineup so I decided to go with NYWC. Plus driving 20 minutes as opposed to 90 minutes was a plus.

This was one of the most anticipated shows for me in a while and let me say that they delivered BIG TIME! New NYWC Fusion Champion. New NYWC Heavyweight Champion! One of the most violent matches I've ever seen the White Trash Bash! Good Battle Royal with a post match Mikey Whipwreck beatdown!


The first 4 matches (the first round fusion matches) were pretty much forgetable. Short matches with not much wrestler heat. Definitely some upsets/booking surprises.
Tony Marmaluke pins Bruno Marciano @ 4:41
Chris Forza pins Pat Buck @ 7:11
Benny Martiniez pins Quiet Storm @ 6:18
#1 John Silver pins Azreal @ 6:05

I definitely think they could have been booked better via a pre match beatdown/ unable to wrestle angle or a outside interference screwjob/countout. All those guys routinely put on good matches that last over 10 minutes. Rather than a short match with a clean finish I think a quick screwjob or a bye would have worked better.


The Battle Royal was good. Julius Smokes is a participant. Knuckle Dusters and AMIL both get eliminated and get into a big brawl outside. Good action till we are down to Syther, Stockade, and Damian Crowley. Crowley and Stockade eliminate Syther. Stockade jumps out to contiune pummelling Syther thus resulting in DC winning. Syther tied up in the top rope with a chair wrapped around his neck. Crusher Doogan tosses in a cinderblock. They are about to smash Syther but Wayne and Mikey hit the ring to stop them . Syther is safe but Stockade with a spear on Mikey and then a DDT on the cinderblock. Mikey is a bloody mess. Comeback match? About 14 minutes of action.

Second round Fusion matches again were just ok.
Benny Martinez pins Tony Marmaluke @ 3:45
Chris Forza pins John Silver @ 5:00
Forza getting a lot of heel heat!

15 minute intermission. Building was Hot and so was the crowd. Lots of intensity. Chant of the night. To Prince Charles - "Burn that Jacket!"


1st half of the show was just ok. Was a little bit let down. 2nd half of the show was off the charts!!!! Totally hit on all cylinders!

The White Trash Bash was first up after intermission. The ring was set up with bails of hay, beer kegs, picnic chairs. This match had everything!!! Bowling balls, trash cans, crutches, keyboards, doors, chairs, cheese graters, shovels, barbed wire bat, fire extingusher and my favorite, a pinata filled with thumbtacks!!!!! The most violent match I've seen live and maybe ever! Ryan Rush accidently through a trash can into the stands and hit some ringsiders in the head. They were not happy. Finish. Dirty moore tries to hit Tony burma with a beer bottle but he ducks and nails Dirty JT. Burma with the pin at 9:36. Insane action. Took about 8 minutes to clean up after the match.

Fusion Tournament Final. Benny Martinez pins Chris Forza in a very good match at the 8:53 mark. Benny's knee is hurt during the match. Forza attacks him post match and rams his knee into the steel post. Will Benny be able to compete???

Heavyweight Championship Match is up. Crowd is 50% for Papadon and 50% for Maverick. Great Match with intense action. Lots of near falls. Papadon wrecks the timekeeper and flings him into the guardrail. Graps his chair. He tries to nail Maverick with it but swings and misses. Maverick drops Papadon on his head. Game set match but no Papadon kicks out! More action Maverick goes for the boot to the face but Papadon ducks and nails the Ref. Ref Forge now hits the ring to take over. Papadon hits a finisher and uses the ropes to help leverage a pin over Maverick at the 14:49 mark. Forge didn't see his use of the rope, Maverick is pissed. New Champion Papadon!!!!


Fusion Championship aka the Main Event. The new Fusion Belt is really nice! 3 way elimination match. Eckos and Reynolds work together to double team Benny Martinez who is limping around. Benny with a DDT out of no where on Eckos for the pin around the 10 minute mark. Down to 2. I must say Belverder was money in this match. Lots of good action. Alex thrown out into the stands. Benny with a flying body press from the top rope into the stands. Holy shit chant breaks out! Alex gets the upper hand and drops Benny on the guardrail. The count is on. Benny in barely by the 10 count. Alex tries to hit Benny with the belt but the ref catches him. Ref jumps out to put the belt back on the table but Benny nails Alex and has him pinned. No ref. Belverder is shadow dancing with the ref blocking him from getting back in the ring. Finally back in and Alex barely kicks out by the 3 count. More intense action and then Alex catches Benny in a single leg boston crab and submits him at the 18:07 mark. Crowd is heated. Fans start pelting the ring with water bottles and soda cans. Security stepped in and tossed a few guys out. I don't condone throwing stuff but you love seeing the heel get that heat!

Again one of the best shows I've seen in my 5 1/2 years of going to NYWC shows!!!!


General thoughts: not sure how I feel about eliminating a belt. Most of the NYWC wrestlers are what I consider x division guys. Having 2 titles/title matches adds a bit more excitement to the show than just a regular match. They have so many talented wrestler but a lot of them are similar size and styles. Bruno, Quiet Storm, Josh Daniels, Dan Eckos, Azreal...all are deserving of a championship run in my opinion. Curious to see how they get used now. Might have to work more on fueding.

I also think NYWC could use a couple of more big men especially with Mega no where to be found. I think the Heavy hitters would be a good fit.


Detailed report just for you Robert.

[Robert Lotti]

Thank you so much for that detailed report beesin. It sounds like a show that should be put on DVD.

[futurechamp]

This was by far the best event I have ever seen. This has to go to dvd. I can't see most of the crowd not getting it.

[torturerack1978]

Besides the circus this was the best show i have been to so far. I enjoyed the White Trash Bash very much. The battle royal was fun too, it filled in nicely after 4 straight tournament matches.

Although Mikey Whipwreck got busted open after being ddt on a brick, and he got speared by Stockkade., it was good too see him out there. Like I have said before i was a big big ecw fan and i like seeing those guys once in a while.

Since the results have been posted I wont post them again. Here some opinions and notes.

Crowd was very good through out the night number wise and loudness wise.

Out of the first round matches I liked Farza vs Pat Buck. Bucks promo before was kind of boring though.

Battle Royal was cool. Crowley won after Stockkade eliminated himself going after syther who was almost destroyed by Stockkade and Crowley, Until Mikey and the owner guy ran in and stopped it. Quick note on the battle royal that i noticed. Braggiol, he got kind of backdropped out of the ring by stockkade and crowley at the same time and looked to have landed on his knee. All I heard was him screaming. He crawled back through the entrance way. I was outside talking with my son after the show and we seen Joey going to his car he was limping pretty bad. He had trouble carrying his bags. Hope he is alright.

White trash bash was in one word awesome. There was stuff everywhere. Huge tires haystacks. the funniest was the pictures on Dale Earndhart Jr. Dirty Moore I think his name is got back body dropped on thumbtacks from a pinata. Rush and Burmma are awesome. My son likes them.

My favorite match from the second round was Farza and John Silva. They had a good match and I though Silva had the win.

Greek God vs Neese was pretty good. Neese lost the belt to Greek God by a roll up pin. Greek god cheated. The original ref who looked new was knocked out by neese and ref farge came in to count the 3 not seeing GreeK God cheat. I thought he couldnt cheat. I didnt like the cursing my son is young and i try not to let him hear that kind of stuff, but I am not going to make a big deal about it not like he hasnt heard me and my wife curse.

The main event 3 way was ok. I didnt know it was elimination so I thought Benny won. I was kind of confused. in the end Alex Reynolds won via submisson on Benny Mortinez, and got a nice soda bath after from a fan. It was funny. I was hoping Farza would win the tournament and have to face his friend Reynolds. That would have been intresting. I liked the dive in the crowd by benny. The butler fell over the railing. That was pretty funny. he is an awesome manager. Prince charles needs to defintley burn that jacket. Yes, i got in on the chant, so did my son it was great and funny.

I had a great time. I am going to try and make it to Queens in two weeks. I should be there barring anything changes between then and now. See you in two weeks.

This Was A GREAT F'N Show... AWESOME The whole night... Crowd was on fire.....

On a side note Tony (dude W/ The Mohawk , Right?) Thou it was kinda funny to some ( not to me ) what my brother did with the soda , It was really embarrassing to get kicked out for his actions. I respect these guys in NYWC , I talk to them before , after , and durring the shows ( Both Wrestlers and Workers alike ) . We are there all the time and for him to do that was uncalled for , he knew better... After being ejected from the building and cursing my older brother out , I whent inside with my wife to Apologize for his actions . I apologized because I dont want His actions to affect us being able to continue to go to the shows.....

[peperoni]

what a great show.
One of the best if not the best I ever been too.
All the matches were great.
Maverick vs Papadon was match of the night for me, thi sshould be match of the year candidate, Maverick was robbed and deserves a re match because he is the best in NYWC.
