This is the OVW Saturday Night Special Report for Saturday, April 6, 2013. Tonight, the Coalition looked to keep their reign of terror going on this show titled "Zero Dark 30". Was their mission successful? Also, Jamin Olivencia went after the OVW Heavyweight Title and Doug Williams once again. Was he able to take the company's top prize? Plus, the Femme Fatales participated in a battle royal, Rudy Switchblade & Jessie Godderz finished their marathon match, Johnny Spade, Moose, & Jay Bradley locked up in a triple threat match, plus much more!

Without further ado:

Here we go...

Spud ducks a clothesline and comes back off the ropes with a body press. Pin attempt, but only a 1 count. Cardinal catches Spud with a big clothesline.

Spud dropkicks Cardinal's knee out from under him, setting him up for the DDT which he hits and then makes the pin for the 1-2-3.
WINNER: SPUD by pinfall.
 MY TAKE: Another hard fought victory for Spud. Can he carry this momentum into next Wednesday's TV taping against Cliff Compton with the TV Title up for grabs?

"VIP" Joe Rosa & "The Mexicutioner" Roberto De Luna (w/VIP Club members J. Best & Austin Bradley) vs. "The Double R Superstar" Randy Royal & Tony Gunn.
 Roberto locks up with Gunn into the corner. He hits him, charges at him, but Gunn moves. Gunn fires away and hits an arm drag. Royal tags in and kicks Roberto's arm.

Both of them get knocked down as VIP grabs the champagne bucket. He swings and misses, as Royal & Gunn catch him for a 3D and Royal makes the pin for the win.
WINNERS: ROYAL & GUNN by pinfall. 
MY TAKE: Royal & Gunn pick up another tag team victory, as Royal still keeps tabs on the TV Title picture.

OVW FEMME FATALE BATTLE ROYAL FOR #1 CONTENDERSHIP: Taeler Hendrix, Hannah Blossom, Trina, Cinnamon Twist, Bobbi Bardot, Heidi Lovelace, & Jessie Belle.
Cinnamon Twist starts screaming that she's a lover, not a fighter, and eliminates herself. Taeler eliminates Bobbi. Then, Trina, who made her return (though I'm not familiar with her), showed off her strength by eliminating all the remaining competitors: Hannah, Taeler, Jessie Belle, & Heidi to win!
WINNER and NEW WOMEN'S #1 CONTENDER: TRINA. 
MY TAKE: Epiphany has some new competition. A strong showing in her return for Trina.

6-MAN TAG: The Coalition's "Rudo" Raul LaMotta, "Lieutenant Lats" Joe Coleman, & "Corporal" Shiloh Jonze (w/"Sgt. Major" Jack Black & Ghillie) vs. Elvis Pridemoore, "Marksman" Nick Dumeyer, & Eddie F. Diamond (w/Timmy Danger, Cinnamon Twist, & Bobbi Bardot).
The Coalition attacks as the match gets underway. Raul is working over EFD, but he comes back with a dropkick and tags Dumeyer.

EFD gets slung across the top rope by Shiloh & Raul and is pinned.
WINNERS: COALITION by pinfall.
After the match, the Coalition attacks Timmy Danger and he is hit with the "Bombs Away" top rope splash by Jack Black.
MY TAKE: The Coalition is dangerous with numbers and the "kill 'em all" mentality. Can they be stopped?

3-ON-1 HANDICAP MATCH: Stephon J. Baxter III, Albert Einstein Baxter II, & Bodyguy vs. "Mister Marvelous" Melvin Maximus.
 Bodyguy came out saying his training partners haven't worked out and tonight he will teach his partner from the first week he tried doing this a lesson with his "proteges", the Baxters. Bodyguy made Stephon start out. Stephon locked up with Marvelous, but Marvelous shoves him across the ring. Albert tags in and he is also shoved across the ring. Stephon comes back in and runs off the ropes and tries to plow into Marvelous, but Marvelous doesn't budge, and Stephon knocks himself out. Albert tries the same thing, and also bounces off of Marvelous. Bodyguy is standing on the top rope yelling at them, saying that they are doing it all wrong. They grab him and slam him down to the mat. Albert throws Bodyguy into a Stephon butt bump. They high five Marvelous and leave Bodyguy for him. Marvelous places Bodyguy in a bearhug, making him submit.
WINNER: MARVELOUS by submission.
MY TAKE: Bodyguy may want to just give up on the partner/protege search.

The Coalition comes out and Crimson has a box that he dumps out with his tag title, a gas mask, a map, a glowstick, and other things in it. They talk about regaining the tag titles and how their work is not done. They made a mistake by being complacent last time. Sam Shaw runs out and leaps from the top rope on all of them. He knocks everyone from the ring, but they all surround each side and have him trapped. Michael Hayes comes out and tells the Coalition to back up and tells Shaw he can't let him fight all 7 men by himself. Ryan Howe's music plays and he runs to the ring to join Shaw. They will partner up to face Crimson & Jason Wayne.
The Coalition's Generals: "He-Man of Homeland Security" Jason Wayne & "Red Baron of Ruthless Reconnaissance" Crimson (w/the Coalition) vs. Sam Shaw & Ryan Howe.
Howe & Shaw are distracted by the rest of the Coalition, allowing Wayne & Crimson to attack from behind. They come back with dropkicks and Shaw takes Crimson down.

Howe goes up top for the Chart Topper, but Dylan Bostic runs out and shoves him off the top rope. Wayne recovers and makes the cover for the pin.
WINNERS: COALITION by pinfall.
 MY TAKE: The Coalition capped off the night with another win, with an assist from Dylan Bostic. Will Howe beat the jealousy out of Bostic? Will Shaw get his revenge on the Coalition after they took out his partner and friend, Alex Silva?

SPECIAL CHALLENGE MATCH: Paredyse vs. Brittany Devore. 
Paredyse comes out looking under the announce table and the ring. He apologizes and begs Brittany to forgive him, because he doesn't like ghosts and spirits. The lights go out and Brittany comes out to eerie music and stands in the middle of the ring with her arms outstretched. Paredyse is confused and starts playing around thinking she's not going to do anything. He waves his hand in her face and she doesn't move. He starts laughing a little bit, saying she's not so scary. Brittany raises her hands and drops them, causing the lights to go out. When they come back on, the Assassin is standing behind Paredyse. He tries to run, but the Assassin grabs him by the tights. He delivers a couple heart punches and his big clothesline and the lights go back out. When they come back on, the Assassin is gone, and Brittany folds Paredyse's hands over his chest and pins him for the win. The Mobile Homers pop up from behind the announce table as Paredyse rolls out of the ring. They sneak up behind him and dump a bucket of BBQ sauce over his head to get their full revenge for Brittany.
WINNER: BRITTANY by pinfall.
 MY TAKE: Paredyse got what was coming to him after embarrassing Brittany. She was able to embarrass him by defeating him and then covering him in BBQ.

LUMBERJACK MATCH: "Mr. Pec-Tacular" Jessie Godderz vs. Rudy Switchblade.
This was not a traditional lumberjack match. The competitors could fight on the outside, but the superstars were to make sure they didn't leave the ringside area or the building.

Rudy hits a stunner of his own, and makes the pin.
WINNER: SWITCHBLADE by pinfall.

As Doug is being taken to the back, he points and laughs at Jamin as he remains champion.
STILL OVW HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION: WILLIAMS. 
MY TAKE: Don't totally understand the ruling, but Doug remains champion after taking the cowardly way out.

A decent night of action. Remember that every Monday night you can find the latest edition of the OVW Top 20 here on OVWmania.

  1. Thanks for posting the results! So what is your take on this one.....It seems that OVW brings in wrestlers from TNA or OVW Alum, and they immediately become #1 contenders or champions. ie: Taryn Terell, Spud and now Trina. This usually occurs with little or no build up. Mixing it up is good, but what do you and the fans in attendance think? And...good luck tomorrow evening with your basketball team!

    1. I like fresh rivalries. Maybe TNA has a say in sending people in and wanting them built up here before bringing them up full time to the main roster.

      P.S. Although, I live in Louisville, they are NOT my team.

  2. Thank you for the response. I agree with your comment, however does this not negate opportunities for the men and women who make up the core at OVW? Recognition of their passion and hard work is paramount.
    Also, amends requested for assuming that Louisville was your team. As an alum of Notre Dame and St. Mary’s, through default, you know which two are my teams. Have a great Sunday.

  3. That is an issue when a fed isn't fully developmental talent like NXT. Do you push the developmental wrestlers over the local talent? I say use the main title in this case the OVW Heavyweight Title for the local guys and use the mid-card titles for the developmental titles.
