This is the OVW Report for Wednesday, March 27, 2019. This episode can be seen on WBNA-21 in the Louisville area on Saturday at 11AM and 9PM, and online at OVW TV. In this episode, Dimes defends the TV Title in the gauntlet, Ca$h Flo looks for payment from Sam Thompson, Al Snow makes an announcement, plus more!

Without further ado:

Here we go...

Pre-Show Dark Matches:

Drew Hernandez defeats Nigel Winters. Drew kicks him right after he rolls in and works him over in the corner, but Nigel comes back and hits a headscissor takedown. Nigel fires away, but Drew kicks him in the ribcage, then stomps on his back. He delivers a powerbomb and puts him away for the 3.

Jaylee takes Kaydee down and stands on her hair. Jaylee with a sleeper. Kaydee fights up and hits a running neckbreaker. They exchange shots and Kaydee blocks a clothesline and hits a DDT. She rams Jaylee into the corner and goes for a somersault back elbow, but Jaylee moves. She kicks Kaydee and hits her finisher for the 3.

Leonis back with the 10-count punches in the corner, but again DL3 distracts him. D after Leonis, but Leonis takes him down with another shoulder tackle. Leonis then chases DL3 around the ring after he steals Leonis' helmet. He runs into a sidewalk slam from D. D works him over, but Leonis comes back with a flying body press off the top. He hits a shoulder block, then gets tripped by DL3. D goes for a powerbomb, but Leonis pulls off his wig and throws it to DL3 on the apron. D charges into DL3 and turns around into a spear from Leonis 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-21 in the Louisville area Saturdays at 11AM and 9PM (check local listings) and on OVW's official website Mondays at OVW TV.

Gilbert Corsey, Josh Ashcraft, & Dr. Ted McNaler are on commentary, and Mercy is the ring announcer.

Al Snow says that he has a special announcement, but first says that there will be punitive action taken against Colton Cage for his actions against Dustin Jackson. Onto better things, he announces that OVW has its own streaming network that can be viewed worldwide for only $4.99 a month! Justin Smooth's music hits and he grabs a mic. Al says he doesn't recall Smooth being scheduled. Smooth says he goes against Tony Gunn in 10 days, and says Tony sucks and is just a circumstantial champion. Gunn comes out and Snow says he wasn't scheduled either. Gunn apologizes and says he loves Al's jacket, he's stylin' and profilin'. He then tells Smooth that talk is cheap. Gunn says he has delivered Killshot after Killshot after Killshot over the last several months and knocked out some people that beat Smooth! He will still be champion after the Special. They start shoving, and Al says not now. He says they want to go so bad, he has an idea. They will do a "pick your poison". Tonight, Gunn will pick an opponent for Smooth, and next week Smooth will pick an opponent for Gunn. He tells them to leave so he can finish his announcement about the network.
Colton Cage & Dani come out and interrupt him. Colton's mic doesn't work and Al says apparently no one wants to hear him. He says they need to leave this building and not come back until next week, or he may personally kick his butt himself! He has officials come out to escort them out!

TELEVISION TITLE GAUNTLET MATCH:
Shiloh Jonze defeats KTD. Shiloh takes KTD down with some mat wrestling and does a little dance. KTD fires back and dropkicks Shiloh. DL3 distracts him and Shiloh hits a Suckah Punch for the 3.

Zo rams him back first into the corner and connects with the cartwheel butt bump and back elbows. He slams Shiloh and goes for the Zo bomb, but Big D distracts the ref and DL3 kicks Zo below the belt. Shiloh gets the 3.
Dimes (c) defeats Shiloh Jonze. Dimes goes right after Shiloh and hits a dropkick. He grabs DL3 on the apron, but Shiloh hits him from behind. Off the ropes, Dimes comes back with a hurricunrana.

Sam Thompson wants Ca$h Flo out here now. Ca$h says he doesn't call him anywhere. He wants his money. Sam says he sold his mom's car and all his action figures (not that he needed them anymore) and gives him the $1000. Ca$h says we're done. Sam says he wants another shot at the Chop Shop. Ca$h says it's closed. Sam says how about he fights him? Ca$h says he's a child and doesn't take pleasure in beating up children. It's all about money. Ca$h wants to know what's in it for him. Sam challenges him to a match and if Ca$h wins, his career is done. Ca$h verifies what he said and Sam says his career is on the line. Ca$h says there's a Special coming up and he'll see him there.

Justin Smooth comes out and then Tony Gunn. He tells Smooth he has the perfect opponent. He has been really angry and needs to unwind with some rock and roll...
"The Trinidad Titan" Justin Smooth defeats "Wrestling's Rockstar" Ryan Howe.
They exchange shots and Howe hits him in the corner. Smooth fires back. He hits him into the turnbuckle. Howe returns the favor. Smooth with a back body drop and he jaws with Gunn. Howe with a sunset flip for 2, then Smooth with a hard clothesline. Howe misses a move off the top and Smooth hits the spinebuster. Howe ducks the bicycle kick and rolls him up for 2. Howe kicks his knee and goes up top. He hits the Chart Topper for 2! He goes for the Whammy Bar. Smooth works out, hits the bicycle kick, and gets the 3.

This ended the TV taping.

DARK MATCH TRIPLE THREAT: "The 97 Year Old Wrestling Extraordinaire" Thunderkitty defeats Hayley Shadows & "Amazing" Maria James. A lot of back and forth action. A spot in the corner where Kitty powerbombs Hayley while superplexing Maria. Maria gets thrown out of the ring later by Kitty, who then takes Hayley down and locks her in the Boston crab for the tapout.

  1. Has J Rob wrestled under another name or is he new to wrestling?

    2. I believe he has, but I am honestly not familiar with him. He was also referred to as the King of Cleveland, and may have been called J Rob Daddy.

  2. I interviewed Dimes the day prior to his title defense on this episode. Here's the link.
