HITS
Alex Shelley / Erick Stevens I haven't been to many AIW shows this year so I don't have a feel for who is getting pushed and who isn't. This was the match of the night: both guys are clearly veterans, told a good story and the near falls were believable. Even Kevin Nash applauded both men when the match was over.
Matthew Justice wins, part 1 The finish of this match was Justice's manager Bill Alfonso putting on a Myles Garrett Cleveland Browns jersey and showing a Pittsburgh Steelers helmet. Justice took the helmet and clunked his opponent Zach Thomas in the head leading to the victory as a reference to Garrett striking Steelers QB Mason Rudolph in the head with his own helmet during a recent NFL game. Leave it to AIW to incorporate this incident to a match finish.
Matthew Justice wins, part 2 I'm expecting Tom Lawlor's other bookings is limiting his availability for AIW events so getting the title off him makes sense. Bishop is an AIW home-grown talent so I would understand putting the top championship title on him so this JLIT cash-in was unexpected. Given how Bishop and Lawlor ended, this was a welcomed surprise. Matthew Justice has a been a standout at AIW shows for a while so most are happy he now owns both AIW Absolute and Intense championships. I'm now interested to see how AIW books Justice with both titles. Plus, we get to hear Pantera again to finish the night.
Bill Alfonso How about 62-year old Alfonso jumping around the ring like it's 1996. When you look at 60-year old Kevin Nash having a hard time walking around the venue and then see Alfonso is doing what is doing, it really makes you appreciate the energy, effort and attitude he puts into his role. Plus, ......
Show closing Part of the why I loved ECW shows in the 90's was how long they would play popular wrestler theme songs. It was not uncommon to hear the full length version of Alice in Chains "Man in the Box" (Tommy Dreamer), Metallica "Enter Sandman" (The Sandman) and Pantera "Walk" (Rob Van Dam, managed by Bill Alfonso). With Alfonso making appearances in AIW, he bought "Walk" with him. Now when Justice wins, they play "Walk", the crowd participates and it's a great time.
Brookpark Rec Center I love this venue. It's close, good neighborhood, plenty of parking, near freeways, bleachers and plenty of room. Let's hope AIW has more events here.
MISSES
Joshua Bishop winning the title over Lawlor This match was a mess, hated it. This reminds me of Bishop's win at GFTG14 earlier this year. I get it Bishop and Barkley are heels and they're supposed to cheat but this was too much. Wes Barkley was initially told to go to the back but later returned and interfered. Bishop tried on several attempts to handcuff Lawlor's hands together and the cuffs would not lock. When that didn't work, they went to the rollup finish. Just a cheap title change. If it wasn't for Justice and Alfonso coming out, this would have been a crappy way to end the show.
Tom Dunn This was the referee for the Bishop/Lawlor match. He tried to act like an official when he ejected Wes Barkley from ringside at the beginning only for him to return. Somewhere along the way the match must have become a No Disqualification because Bishop introduced the handcuffs, tried locking them on Lawlor's hands and Dunn just stood there and watched him. Even if the match was no DQ, how could an official just stand there and watch a wrestler get a clear unfair advantage? Did Bishop try to manipulate the referee while this was going on? No. Did Barkley who had already returned try to distract the official while Bishop applied the handcuffs? No. Should Bishop have asked Dunn for help applying the handcuffs? probably. Another instance where an AIW official is booked to look poorly.
