This episode can be seen on WBNA-21 in the Louisville area on Saturday at 11AM and 10PM, and online on Monday at www.ovwrestling.com/ovw-media.html. In this episode, the Bad Boys Club is in action, we hear from David Lee Lorenze III, Tyler Matrix is interviewed about the SNS, plus more!

Without further ado:

Here we go...

Pre-Show Dark Matches:

LJ defeats "The Fearless" Jacob Black. Black with the early advantage, but LJ comes back with a dropkick, then a leg drop across Black draped across the rope. LJ goes up top, but Black hits him. Black climbs up, but LJ hits him down to the mat, connects with a frog splash, and gets the 3.

Chace Destiny & Damion defeat Houdini & Michael Manson. Chace & Damion work over Manson until a hot tag to Houdini. Houdini is cleaning house, but is tripped off the ropes by Jade Dawson. Houdini turns his back to Damion, and he gets rolled up with a handful of tights for the 3.

"The Winter Swoldier" Adam Slade defeats "Bro God" Dustin Jackson. A quick back and forth match with several exchanges. Dustin looks to have control. He leaps in from the apron to sunset flip Slade, but Slade drops down, holds on to the ropes for leverage and gets the 3.

"The Legacy of Brutality": Ca$h Flo & Dapper Dan (w/Josh Ashcraft) defeat "The Veteran Express": Apollo & Raul LaMotta. The L.O.B. attack the Vets and Raul is worked over for a bit with the Legacy using several illegal tags and distractions before Raul tags in Apollo. Apollo comes in firing away, and with Raul, hits a double big boot to Dan. They hit a double inverted atomic drop to Ca$h, and then a double atomic drop to Ca$h. Josh jumps on the apron, and the Vets get distracted. The L.O.B. club the Vets from behind. Raul is knocked out of the ring, and they deliver a double spinebuster to Apollo for the 3.

That concludes tonight's pre-show dark matches. I always recommend watching the episode first on TV or online before reading the rest of the report. Again, you can check it out on WBNA ion-21 in the Louisville area Saturdays at 11AM and 10PM (check local listings) and on OVW's official website Mondays at www.ovwrestling.com/ovw-media.html.

Gilbert Corsey, Ron Hed, & Ted McNaler are on commentary, and KC is the ring announcer.

The show starts with Gilbert Corsey bringing out Tyler Matrix. Matrix is furious about the Special, saying this was supposed to be the culmination of everything that has happened with him, Shannon the Dude, Adam Revolver, & Tony Vanetti. STD & Adam have cost him title shots and opportunities, and he wants to settle this once and for all. He calls out Adam, but instead Dean Hill comes out. Dean says he watched the footage and agrees, but is cut off by Revolver & STD. STD tells Dean not to stick his mouth where it doesn't belong. Adam says he's beat Matrix, Shannon's beat Matrix, it's time to move on to bigger and better things. Dean agrees. He thinks Adam deserves a shot at the Heavyweight Title, and Matrix does as well. Tonight, it's Matrix vs. Revolver for #1 contender!

OVW TELEVISION TITLE: Jade Dawson (c) (w/Chace Destiny & Damion) defeats Elia Baratz. A very good showing from Baratz who has a hot start. He has Jade set up for his finisher, but Jade is pulled out by Damion & Chace. Jade hits Baratz from behind and chokes him. He connects with a legdrop, but misses another. Baratz comes back with a splash in the corner, and a powerslam for 2. He sets up for his finisher, but Jade drops him. Jade goes to grab him, and Baratz kicks him into Chace on the apron. He tries again, and Damion jumps off the top rope, but Baratz throws Jade aside, kicks Damion, and hits his finisher. Jade recovers, and kicks Baratz when he turns around, then delivers the snap DDT for the 3.

David Lee Lorenze III comes out. He says he may have been on a losing streak, but he has a new chair, a new jacket, and new shades. He is about to present David Lee Lorenze III: The Sequel, and the sequel is a winner. He says he will be facing Justin Smooth at the Rusty Bucket, but he doesn't want to wait. He wants him out here now. Smooth's music hits, but out comes Dre Blitz with Smooth's jacket and a Smooth mask.

David has him read his lines and act like Smooth. David then gives him the Director's Cut. Smooth's music hits again, and the real Justin Smooth is out. As Blitz starts getting back to his feet, David shoves Blitz into Smooth.

Smooth delivers Street Justice to Blitz and says he will knock David out at the Rusty Bucket.

OVW Southern Tag Team Champions "The Bad Boys Club": "Bad Boy" Shane Andrews & "Double R Superstar" Randy Royal (w/"Bad Girl" Jessie Belle) defeat KTD & Kevin Giza. The Bad Boys dominate early. Giza gets a hot tag from KTD and hits an enziguri to SHane and headbutts Randy in the chest. He goes up top and leaps off, but Randy catches him, and delivers the samoan drop. Shane then connects with the frog splash for the 3.

After the match, the B.B.C. is attacked by the Legacy of Brutality! Josh Ashcraft grabs the Southern Tag Team Titles and says it's time to get back what's his. He heard that it's always better to steal from the best. He tells Jessie that if she thinks twice about getting involved, he will show her what a real "bad boy" looks like!

Dr. Ted McNaler brings out the OVW Women's Champion Cali to ask her about her condition. He says the match was stopped at the Special because Mickie Knuckles continued to repeatedly headbutt her in the head and that it could have caused permanent damage. He says he believes even now that Cali might have a concussion, but when asked, Cali says she is a fighting champion and will continue to compete. Mickie comes out and tells Cali she has another gift. Ted tells her it's not her time, but Mickie does what she wants. She shoves referee Joe Wheeler down and headbutts Cali. She hits referee Dave Crowe below the belt and referee Charlene in the face. She throws Cali in the ring and headbutts her some more. Ted tries to reason with her and help Cali, but he gets a release German Suplex from Mickie!

#1 CONTENDER for the OVW HEAVYWEIGHT TITLE: Adam Revolver (w/Shannon the Dude) defeats "The Young Lion" Tyler Matrix by DQ. Tyler dives to the outside on Adam. Back inside, he hits some dropkicks and goes to dive out on Adam again. He slides through STD's legs, who is on the apron, and pulls him down. Adam grabs Tyler from behind and throws him into the ringpost. Adam works over Tyler a bit, and locks in a sleeper, and then a Figure Four. Tyler is able to roll the Figure Four over, and Adam grabs the ropes with help from STD. Tyler nails a kick to the head, clotheslines, and a samoan drop to Adam. Adam rolls out of the way of a swanton, but Tyler rolls through as well. He hits Adam with a running knee. Tyler goes back up, but STD distracts him. Adam goes up and hits Tyler and delivers a superplex. STD is now distracting the ref. Adam gets powder out of his tights and sets up to throw it in Tyler's eyes. Tony Vanetti comes out and hits it in Adam's face. He then pulls STD into the ring and grabs his Radio Title. He goes to hit STD, but STD ducks, and he hits Adam instead. The ref calls for the bell.

This ended the TV taping.

Post-Show Dark Matches:

"The Trinidadian Titan" Justin Smooth & OVW Heavyweight Champion Big Jon defeat David Lee Lorenze III & Dre Blitz. Before the match, Blitz & David shake hands. David says the scene was so good earlier that he actually thought Blitz was Justin Smooth, and that's why he hit him with the Director's Cut. Jon & Smooth dominate the majority of the match. Jon sets up to chokeslam Blitz, and David hits Jon from behind with a chair. It doesn't faze Jon, and David takes off. Jon & Smooth hit Blitz with a double chokeslam to end the show.

As always, thanks for reading!
