Shockwave 2004 Pre Show

The two cousins started off affairs in completely sporting fashion, no eye gouges, no bitch slaps just complete and utter wrestling. Rose took the early advantage with a Snap Suplex and a Double Arm DDT before hitting a Missile Dropkick. Rose went for the cover but Thorn saw in coming and rolled Rose up for a count of 2. An Irate Rose then went for a clothesline only to get caught by Thorn and nailed with a Drop Toe Hold.

A Chicken Wing almost made Thorn tap, but Rose appearing to feel guilty released. A Sambo Suplex and a Swinging Neckbreaker earned Rose a second count of two. Rose came unstuck when Thorn raked the eyes and nailed her with a Bulldog and DDT. Rose barely kicked out as Thorn covered. Thorn stomped Rose so bad you’d think Rose wanted to emigrate to New Zealand. And her cousin was giving her a helping hand getting their. Air Fare is a Bitch after all.

Thorn then hit a Sunset Flip, Spinning Boot Scrape and Shooting Star Press. Thorn thought she had the match won only for Rose to get her foot on the ropes. An irate Thorn went upstairs but Rose countered the Moonsault getting her knees up.

A series of suplex’s meant Thorn seemed easy pickings however James Keiler appeared. Rose went for a Cross body, catching Thorn perfectly. However the momentum and James Keiler twisting Roses over feet as she landed meant Thorn ended up covering a shocked Rose for the win.

A nice, full on CCW match is what the fans needed most.. And that’s what they received as Tommy Drake took on the Canadian Heavyweight champion, Alex Kaos for a shot at his belt on a later Talent card. The fans were split on who they cheered for, but you could tell all of them wanted Drake to win.. Just to see he win what he deserved.. After all he is probably the hardest worker in the CCW, and somehow manages to come up short. Well tonight, good ol’ T-Drake was looking to snap that trend as he took on Kaos at full steam, never backing down as he hit a snap DDT after an Irish whip, a spinning heel kick, and with a great show of strength, a german suplex which he held on for the bridge, but only pulled off a one and a half count. Kaos would eventually battle his way back into the match, stopping The Maverick before he could pull of a drop kick, nailing him with a huuuggee clothesline that must have made Drake do at least a flip and a half. The fans stood from their seats with “Oh’s” as the smack of the clothesline echoed through the arena. From there, Kaos would go to work on Drake. Stomping the life out of him and every now and then throwing in a few elbow drops. Eventually he Drake would fight his way to his feet, and would try to push Kaos away, but Kaos just came right back with a boot to a gut, followed closely by a quick DDT, which got a two as Drake got his foot on the ropes. Kaos would eventually find his way up top – as Drake was still down from the earlier DDT. The fans, even though they knew Kaos couldn’t pull off to much of a high flying move since he’s so big, stood to their feet in anticipation.. Kaos would leap, and the camera’s would flash, though Kaos would miss his flying leg drop attempt, and hit nothing but mat as Drake would roll clear out of the way. Five minutes later, after neither man getting a clear advantage with both trading off holds and reverse, and Drake was finally back in control, chopping the life out of Kaos with knife edge chops which got the crowd going with the “Whoo’s”. After about eight chops, Drake whipped Kaos across the ring, and once he came back nailed a hang time drop kick which got a few cheers from the crowd. Drake would follow up with “The House of Drake”, a knee lock figure four, which had Kaos screaming like a baby.. But Kaos would eventually battle out of it. But one thing he couldn’t battle out of, three minutes later was “The Maverick Driver” or a burning hammer/neck breaker, which gave Drake the win and a number one contenders shot at Kaos’s belt.

Winner: Tommy Drake [Maverick Driver, 25:43]

In the first match, of the two Absolute Cup first round we saw the BWA LA state champion Trench go one on one against “Violent” Evan Hurley. Evan Hurley came out at Trench well violent to say the very least. Evan was extremely, overly aggressive, and that may have cost him as he walked right into a few quick jabs by Trench followed by a spinbuster that shook the ring, if not the whole building. The match didn’t get any better for Evan from there, as Trench was able to time, and time again land crushing side back breakers on Hurley until the point in time came when Hurley just had to lay there holding his back. Trench deiced maybe it would be a good time to go airborne… Well it wasn’t as Evan moved out of the way Trench’s diving knee only hit the mat. Hurley was able to get back up to his feet and laid into Trench with several huge chops before he went on an offensive. Evan’s offensive lasted a grand total of five minutes until he went of a quick roll up pin! TWO COUNT! Trench gets back up to his feet after kicking out of that one strong and well, he was pissed off after that. With thoughts of the a World title shot, dancing in his head Trench became a machine to say the very least. Hurley tried to regain control of the match with the clothesline but Trench just took it. It would appear as if he would have no more of that, Trench and Evan exchanged fists until Trench backed Evan up into a corner, and started unloading back elbows shots to the face of Hurley. Trench however took a step back to charge in with a clothesline, and we all know that can only mean that Evan Hurley put a boot right in his face. Hurley quickly followed that up by climbing up to the second turnbuckle and nailing a flying clothesline bringing both men crashing down to the mat. At this point, and time in the match things to really brutal as both men fought back up to there feet, until Trench leaped forward with a nasty chop block to the back of the leg of Hurley. Hurley went down clutching his leg, and Trench capitalized on it. He stomped away on Evan’s leg. Trench then slide outside the ring holding the leg of Hurley with him, Trench continued to slam Evan’s knee into the steel ring post viciously as the Canadian fans BOOOED loudly watching, there home town boy getting seriously beat on. Trench finally got back into the ring, and applied a STF on Evan. Evan had on choice but to tap out.

This was a classic match for the ages, as both men turned out stellar performances in our highly awaited for second Absolute Cup match. The winner of this match would go on to face Trench at the next AWU Friday Night Fights. This match started out pretty fast, well as fast as it could. CK quickly made his way over to Dragon Jones he pranced around a little playing to the fans before even acknowledging the existence of Citizen Kane. Kane got kind of pissed off, and started to ask the ref what was up, Jones took this as his opportunity to drop kick Citizen Kane in the knee taking him down. After that DJ dominated for some time. Dragon Jones showed why he is a former, WWA Cruiserweight, SSW Roulette, and Wx3 Hardcore champion as he flew through the air dazzling the fans. Jones locked up Kane in an arm bar, and walked him over to the ropes where Jones flipped forward, his legs bounced off the ropes cause him to spring backwards nailed the greatest looking reverse DDT as the whole arena was illuminated with cameras flashing. Jones didn’t stop there though as he once again scaled the ropes, to the top. As Dragon Jones stood atop the turnbuckle Citizen Kane started to slowly get up, DJ leapt off the top rope with a moon-sault to die for. Cameras once again flashed as DJ was mid-air an all not totally recover Citizen Kane stumbled to the floor; DJ flew right over the downed Kane and landed on the mat himself. The crowd was now cheering more intense then any point before this, a chant of “D.J” echoes through out the building as all the CCW faithful get behind their very own Dragon Jones. After about a minute of bother men laying on the floor holding themselves, both of them got up. Kane charged at DJ knocking him down with a clothesline, then picking him back up, and nailed DDT after DDT. Dragon Jones stumbles back up to his feet, and Kane nailed him across the chest with a spinning heel kick, but DJ catches it kind of.

Dragon Jones scopes out Kane on the outside for a second before running at the ropes full speed, Jones vaults over the top rope with a HUGEEEE FLYING CROSS BODY!!… ONCE AGAIN THE ARENA IS LIT UP! Dragon Jones, and Kane go crashing through the French Canadian announcing team’s table. Breaking the table in two, while the two French men shout things at them. Dragon Jones scream back though “Fermé avant que j'aie le singe de wal-marché vous a mordu des écrous au loin.” After that the French guys kind of backed up very scared of Dragon Jones it would seem. Jones slowly got up off of Kane, dragging Kane by the hair back into the ring. Jones takes Kane and puts him up on the top rope, Jones then leapt backwards with Kane… TOP ROPE JONESIVER!!!! Dragon Jones got the ONE…THE TWO… AND EVEN A THREE!!!

Since neither man spoke through out the days that lead up to this match, no one knew what was going to happen.. All anybody knew was that Cruise would probably have the advantage, being a CCW wrestler and wrestling in front of a Oshawa crowd. Both men battle well, and the crowd was mostly behind Cruise but cheered Bender’s moves at points in the match. One move the fans particularly liked five minutes into the match that shifted the momentum back into Bender’s favor was when he nailed a picture perfect fame asser onto Cruise, which he followed up with a pin attempt that only saw a two count. Bender was quick to hit a DDT to Cruise after that, as well as a belly to back suplex, and a full nelson slam. Bender went for the pin again, but only got two once more as Cruise got his foot on the ropes. About two minutes later; however, things were looking up for Cruise as he pulled a dragon suplex out of nowhere, and followed up with a running clothesline as soon as Josh stood to his feet. Cruise would go on to nail a spine buster, a tilt-to-whirl powerslam, and even a fireman’s carry brain buster DDT before he would lock on a figure four leg lock which would send Josh into a fit of yells and cursing. Damian had the hold locked on for a good minute before Josh was finally able to break free, getting to the ropes. As Josh stood Cruise came charging in, only to get sent over the top rope as Josh dropped down, pulling down on the top rope. Josh would bounce Cruise’s head of various things like the guard rail and the ring apron before he rolled him back in and hit a big crucifix powerbomb, but the pin wouldn’t go through as Cruise refused to say die, kicking out at the last second. Eventually, Damian would lock on what he calls the “Lock Up” or double STF, and it would only be mere seconds before Bender tapped, giving Cruise the win.

Winner: Damian Cruise [Lock Up- Double STF, 17:08]

Evan Hurly and Mike Ismanovich dominated the start of the in ring action and were successful in allowing neither to tag in their or any partner. Hurly used a head lock take down to slow the pace of this match down until Ismavich nipped to his feet and then the action was able to start again. When he tagged in his partner Kevin Krushnovski stormed the ring and Hurly left his boots on the other side of the ring after the arm drag that ‘Kid Krush’ gave him, he was scooped onto his shoulder and slammed into the center of the ring.

Kid Krush then removed him from the ring after a hip toss and Mike ‘The Ice Man’ Ismanovich took care of him with an Irish whip into the metal guard railings. A short while later and Kid Krush had failed to put away Hurly after a spine buster that he pulled out of nowhere from a whip into the ropes and was once again on top and the action had slowed down to arm bar level. Ice Man was tagged in but made little affect as Hurly got the big tag and in came Fishman Deluxe barely got a move in before Kid Krush entered the ring again this time to show off an impressive looking power slam that made the foundations of the ring shake and the front row nearly spilt their drinks; even more so after Fishman exited the ring over the top rope via Kid Krush and landed by flying into the railings.

Just past the ten minute mark and still no impressive strides had been taken in the development of seeing an outcome from this match. There was a piledriver followed by a leg drop that allowed the Mid-Card Experiment to gain a short lived 2 and a half count as well as a period where everyone decided they would like to brawl around the ring, just leaving Kid Krush in the center of the ring, as he needed to be attended to, due to an illegal chair shot that the referee had missed.

15 minutes gone and Krush and Fishman are exchanging right hands near the corner, Fishman sends Krush into the corner and lights up his chest with a stinger of a knife edge chop.

Hurly pulls The Ice Man up and goes for a pump handle slam, he gets The Ice Man into the air but he slides over his shoulder so that he is standing behind Evan Hurly, he spins round Hurly and kicks him into the stomach, folding over Hurly. The Ice Man lifts up Hurly so he is on his shoulders ready for a powerbomb. The Ice Man backs into his own corner and Kid Krush makes the tag, he then leaps onto the second rope and is soon on the top. He dives into the air and grabs the head brining it down for a cutter/powerbomb combination that gets a simple three count.

We open up and Judas, Chilli, R.J. Harris and Vinny Mara are all in the middle of the ring, circling each other. Harris makes the first move, charging to try and take out the leg of Mara, but Mara takes him down with a boot to the shoulder, then starts a-stompin'. Meanwhile, Judas and Chilli are just feeding each other with first after first. Chilli got the upper hand and pounded on the face of Judas until he was backing up against the ropes. Chilli grabs the arm of Judas and pushes him back against the ropes, then pulls him out quickly and Irish Whips him across the ring. Halfway there, he gets kicked in the face by Mara.

Harris is laying down on the outside of the ring, on his back. And Mara is on the top rope, holding his nuts. Chilli slowly gets up after the DDT and then moves into the kill on Judas who is still on one knee. All of a sudden, Judas springs up to his feet and sprays mist outta his mouth into the eyes of Chilli. Chilli screams, grabing at his eyes and then Judas hooks him and plants him with "The End."

Devlin tagging in Kakuma, BDTT making the tag to Horrey. Kakuma with some high flying moves dominated Horrey before a Sleeper Hold was applied. Horrey seemed to be on the way out until saved by Matthews who nailed Kakuma with a Boot to the Gut and a Spin Out Powerbomb.

Both men struggled to their corners, and made the tag bringing BDTT and Average back in. Average nailed BDTT with a Powerslam and then a Hanging Suplex to eliminate the BDTT.

Sam Horrey was in quick and nailed Average with a couple of Forearms to the face and a spinning heel kick. Horrey went for a cross body press only to be caught by Average and sent down with a Fall Away Slam. Average made the tag to Kakuma who finished Horrey off with a reverse Hurricanrana.

Matthews re-entered the fray and took Kakuma apart with a series of devestating and varied Martial Arts moves and holds. Utterly dominating Kakuma. After several failed pin attempts Matthews appeared to Kakuma out hitting a Double Wing Stretch Headfirst Sitout Powerbomb. But the referees count was halted as Max Devlin broke up the pin attempt. Matthews pulled Kakuma up and tossed him to the OCW corner calling Devlin into the ring. Devlin was dealt the same treatment as Matthews had dished out to Kakuma. Matthews eventually locked on a Juji-catami Armbar making Devlin tap. Average and Kakuma on the apron made no attempt to break the submission.

Average was back in quick on Matthews and used his size to great advantage, Matthews unable to counter due to the sheer brutality of Average who earned several two counts. Average was eventual undone by Matthews as the RWC Heavyweight Champion caught a boot to the gut from Average and sent him over with a Dragon Screw Leg Whip. Matthews tagged in Rain who had Average on the ropes hitting some quick high flying offence. Rain hit a top rope kick to the jaw, his Triple Crown Kick, and went for the cover but Kakuma saved Average. Rain got into an argument with the referee allowing Average to Powerbomb and pin him.

Matthews came in and went to work on Average. The size of 'little' Joey eventually told as his stamina began to fail him. Matthews applied a Rolling Butterfly Lock. But Kakuma again came to the rescue of his team allowing Average to escape. Average caught Matthews with a boot to te gut and an Implant DDT but only got a count of three. Matthews came back at Average with a combination that had Average reeling. Average then countered with a rake to the eyes and tagged in Kakuma. As he entered Kakuma was nailed with a Tiger Driver and Matthews covered for the count of three.

A tired Average entered and Matthews took advantaged applying several quick holds, hit numerous throws and won the match for EWC with a Instep Reverse Figure Four Leg Lock. Average had no choice but to tap out.
