Results – CCW in Sayler Park, OH – 2/12/10

A very vocal crowd was on hand last night at the Sayler Park Rec Center last night as the Classic Championship Wrestling locomotive pulled into the station. Seven huge events kept the crowd loud and proud even after The Colonel made his way to the ring to begin the show. He introduced the inaugural CCW Champion “The Showcase” Brett Michaels and boasted that “as the VIP’s, they were the driving force behind CCW.”

First up was a Battle Royal that was to determine the order of the night’s matches, with the winner receiving a CCW title shot in the Main Event. The order of elimination was as follows: Iceberg, Jacob Frost, Aaron Extreme, Aaron Gunn, “The Marvel” Trice, “Outlaw” Dan Hansen, “Magnificent” Princeton Travis and Pete News, leaving “Fighting Irish” Ryan O’Bryan as the winner. As O’Bryan turned to the fans and celebrated, Michaels slid in and there was a short staredown before sliding back out. After Ryan left the ring, The Boss asked The Colonel and Michaels back into the ring and interviewed them.

The first match saw Iceberg take on Jacob Frost and it was a physical match from the start, including when Iceberg chased Frost around the ring and was clotheslined on the outside by Draconus. In the end, Frost picked up the win with some help by his second, Draconus.

The second match pitted two high flyers in Aaron Gunn and Aaron Extreme. Both of theses competitors were using the top rope for their maneuvers on more than one occasion. A huge splash from Gunn was sure to put his challenger to the mat for the three-count, but the heart of Extreme would not die.minutes later Extreme caught Gunn with a Shooting Star Press for the win.

Next up on the card was “The Marvel”Trice versus “Outlaw” Dan Hansen. These guys were hitting each other with all they had, Hansen even battered Trice outside of the ring, working on his back. It was apparent that he was only softening Trice up as Hansen locked him in the Bearhug. It took a couple minutes but Trice was soon hanging limp in Hansen’s arms and the ref called for the bell. Only Hansen wouldn’t release the hold. After the referees pleaded with Dan to release the hold, they eventually reversed the decision, giving the win to “The Marvel” setting off a tirade from “The Outlaw” who promptly applied the hold again. Only a threat from The Boss of a major fine allowed Trice to finally slip from the clutches of “The Outlaw”. With this, the show went to intermission.

The first match after intermission was between two crowd favorites in Pete News and “Magnificent” Princeton Travis. These two put on a display of technical mat wresting. They threw move after move at each other to the amazement of the crowd. But someone has to win and someone has to lose. Pete whipped Travis into the corner and monkey-flipped him out, hit an elbow drop and only got a two-count. He whipped him into the corner again and went for a shoulder tackle, missing it and then Princeton rolled him up in a Schoolboy Roll-up for the win. The crowd applauded both men as the two men raised their arms. But then the mood turned as News then attacked Princeton and after hitting him with a Swanton Bomb, left him laying in the ring to the boos of the crowd.

Next up was the featured ladies match which included the newcomer Lil’ Naughty and the CCW’s resident, well you know, the “Alpha Female” Natasha Rivers. And the crowd immediately fell in love with the tiny brunette all decked out in black and pink. And the crowd showed their love to her. They booed River’s every move and cheered Naughty’s. Including when Naughty whipped Rivers into the corner and charged, throwing her rump into her prone challenger. Once Rivers dropped to the ground at the buckle, Naughty gave her another for good measure. But, the tide would turn and Natasha got her licks in. At the end, Rivers clotheslined Naughty in the corner and berated the referee and Naughty recovered. The ref tossed Rivers’ arms out of his face, throwing her off-balanced and was then rolled up from behind by her opponent. A three-count later gave Lil’ Naughty the win, which did not set well with Rivers who then attacked Naughty. After a few kicks and punches, Aaron Extreme ran from the back to make the save. It is safe to say that this was not the final time these two ladies will meet in the ring in CCW.

This brings us to the main event between Ryan O’Bryan and the CCW Champion, “The Showcase” Brett Michaels, with his manager Colonel Jonathan James. And it seems that James has a new nickname as the younger members of the crowd took to calling him “Cap’n Crunch”. And they reminded the leader of The VIP’s of that at every opportunity as O’Bryan and Michaels battered each other the whole night. A well-placed dropkick sent The Showcase to the outside at one point, though soon it was Ryan who was tossed out of the ring and soon ended up in the clutches of the Cap’n, I mean, Colonel. James took to choking their rival and then raked Ryan’s back with his fingernails. James then distracted the ref while Brett choked O’Bryan with the security rope. Later, Michaels went to clothesline the Irishman, only to have him duck and nail the referee. This sent the referee down into the corner as The Showcase was then Super-kicked by O’Bryan. Ryan covered him but there was no ref until another made his way to the ring and made a two-count. A minute later, Michaels caught his challenger with The Showdown Neckbreaker and got the pinfall. As his hand was raised in victory, the original referee came to and pulled it down and declared O’Bryan the winner by DQ since he was knocked down by the champ. Michaels attacked O’Bryan from behind and Dan Hansen emerged from the back to continue the assault. Only when the Magnificent Marvel Connection ran in to save their friend, did the VIP’s and Hansen retreat from the ring.

After the combatants cleared the ring, Announcer Dave Michaels reminded the crowd that the CCW would return to the center on Saturday night, March 6th.
