UNCIVIL WAR RESULTS
--Scrayper beat Despair and surprise match entrant Simon Underwood in a
Staplegun Scramble match. The match saw Underwood unexpectedly show up
and join in. He targetted Despair all the way through, no doubt a rivalry
just beginning. Post match Bad Eye McBaine showed up and _decimated_
Scrayper, stapling his mask to his face!
--Vincent Lyons defeated Langston Crete in a rematch from the Rising
Star Finals of the RSLL tournament when Jason Storm destroyed Crete before
the match, Lyons simply needing to make a pin to get the easy W.
--In a Guantlet Match for the Vacant NEO-Pro Tag Team Championships,
BMW Deluxe were the surprise winners. The Bishonen beat the Odd Couple of
Ian Finnegan and Odin Trollslayer and the Ewiak Brothers in consecutive
matches but fell to the German duo.
--Sushi Tsunami pinned AsH with the Tsunami on a chair during a
_shocking_ heel turn to become the new International Cruiserweight Champion.
--In an unannounced match Spikyjim defeated his one time student Remy
Gonzalez in a BSCW offer match. The match was a brutal affair
featuring wrestling and hardcore. A definite show stealer!
--The International Trios Championships also changed hands when the
trio of John Shock, Pak and Corey Hart defeated the Armani Exchange despite the
differences between Pak and Hart.
--NEO-Pro was shocked when Derek Irvin returned to the company after an
absence and ripped on everyone before making an open challenge... one
that was answered by Johnny Pleasance! The Big Bad and Irvin tore into each
other in a wild brawl culminating in a pull apart. This one is far
from over!
--Psicopa and Pablo O'Connor's Conspiracy Confession Match when to a
double KO when neither would confess... and passed out after a grueling
workrate/comedy bout of epic proportions.
--In one of the bigger shocks of the night, UWF competitors Michael
Bonn and Chris O'Brien competed in a ladder match for the UWF Cruiserweight
Championship, Bonn retaining his deathgrip on the title.
--Talia Wichzini won a battle royal to become the North American
Women's Champion. In order of elimination: Lori Dane, Sonya Benedict, Nina
Larue, Laura Davis.
--And in an epic, bloody, wild main event Hannibal Carver defeated
Trent Davidson, Ktulu and Jacob Cross to become the NEO-Pro Triple Crown
Champion! The TLC to the Extreme Match was about as bloody as they come with
lighttubes, canes, ladders, chairs, tables, thumbtacks, fire and the
craziest dive ever all involved. No doubt a successful night for a
company on the comeback!
NEWS AND NOTES
--The BIG news, easily, is the change over of the roster coming off
Uncivil War. Tripp Shade, Mike Waldrop and Jacob Cross have all left. Waldrop
and Cross retired while Shade left to pursue a career in I Slash. Other
more minor names including Iris Galiver, Sissy Perkins, Akira Shinashi and
KANA Hoshino were released. Lori Dane was in for a one shot deal and may
return for future dates. Soup Bone Samson retired... again.
--Injuried were aplenty but miraculously none were too serious. Both
Trent Davidson and Ktulu were said to be PLENTY shaken up after Davidson's
suicidal dive from a ladder a top the entrance way. Both of them, as
well as Carver and Cross had to be taken to the hospital for stiches and blood
loss. Derek Irvin had a couple stiched as well, but backstage. The only other
real injury of note was Stephanie who twisted her wrist being thrown into
the audience by Thad.
--Everyone is said to be in high spirits after Uncivil War, the show an
inequivocable success in everyone's eyes. The four of
Cross/Carver/Davidson/Ktulu got a standing ovation from the locker
room when they were taken backstage. The match of Pablo O'Connor and
Psicopa also got rave reviews as did the insane fight between Spikyjim and Remy
Gonzalez.
--Many were shocked by the appearance of Bad Eye McBaine. The office
kept it from everyone except those involved in the angle. McBaine brings some
'big name' status to the roster, adding to the well known talent like Johnny
Pleasance, Derek Irvin, Ktulu, Psicopa and Hannibal Carver.
--With INVASION!: Crimson Glory being the 75th show in NEO history,
expect some fireworks. Word is already spreading about the main event.
Hannibal Carver and Ktulu are said to be cooking up quite the spectacle and
training hard, promising the most brutal bloodbath in the company's history.
--Just the Facts, a well known and respected wrestling website recently
posted rankings. Hannibal Carver, Ktulu and Trent Davidson all placed
well. To see the rankings...
http://www.geocities.com/justthefacts3001/rankings/
--The next "two" shows will feature a split crew. One crew will travel
to Japan for a pair of shows while the other will stay in the NEO-Pro
Arena. All four women wrestlers will remain as part of the Canada crew but
Laura Davis and Nina Larue will travel to Japan for the second show. While in
Japan, many will visit friends or train. Expect some big time, near PPV
like matches on these shows.
--NEO-Pro may become involved in a joint project with smaller indy
companies Rumble Pro and EPIC. The exact details are as yet unknown.
--As well expect NEO participation on an upcoming UWF show, possibly
leading to a joint show between the two companies. The BSCW/NEO-Pro joint show
will happen when the two crews are both back on Canadian soil. The
Hammerstein Ballroom and Viking Hall are rumored locations for the show. Possible
matches for that show... Ktulu vs Blade Jin, Psicopa vs Blockbuster Bob
and Hannibal Carver vs Spikyjim among others. This could possibly become a
two day event and may even include offer matches from other companies
turning it into another wrestling summit.
--Expect The Sky's the Limit 4 sometime in the early summer and The
second Crimson Glory tournament at the end of the year, both probably becoming
one night events.
--Rumored names for the next supercard? Beach Party, 'Till Death Do Us Part
LINEUP FOR INVASION!
Fresh of Uncivil War NEo-Pro returns to it's home... to the NEO-Pro
Arena in Edmonton, Alberta! Injuries are aplenty... the roster has
had one hell of a face lift... new champions... new challengers...
new stars... a new day for NEO!
The big, big news is the crowning of a new Triple Crown Champion in
Hannibal Carver! He went through Jacob Cross, Ktulu _and_ Trent
Davidson in an amazing match that had everything! But the king
doesn't get off scott free... he has to fight again. Through all
the pain, the blood loss, the cuts and bruises and scrapes, HANNIBAL
CARVER will meet a man he's had more then a few run ins with... one
of the most underrated in NEO history... KTULU! They will meet and
meet in the CRIMSON GLORY TOURNAMENT FINALS! The last (and first
ever) Crimson Glory match had everything from barbed wire to
explosions and even scorpions! This match is promising to surpass
any hardcore or any deathmatch in NEO history... and you can bet
your ass it will with these two sick minds in the ring!
LANGSTON CRETE looked to get in the ring with VINCENT LYONS in a
rematch from the finals of the Rising Star Tournament but was jumped
by Jason Storm before the bell and unable to continue. Now, he gets
Lyons... in a match where EVERYONE IS BANNED FROM RINGSIDE!
There were a ton of debuts at Uncivil War... and we get another on
INVASION! as the tag team, THE BLOOD BROTHERS take on the
debuting "THE FUTURE" DAMIEN LEGACY and SEAN MALCOMB!
BRUCE SAOTOME and CHRIS COLTON were once best friends... now bitter
enemies. With Jacob Cross and LAD both gone, SAOTOME is
directionless... but still dangerous! How will Colton deal with
this in a one on one match up? I guess we're about to find out on
INVASION!
And in a number one contenders match up to determine who will
challenge new North American Women's Champion Talia Wichzini, "THE
TRUE ATHLETE" LAURA DAVIS will take on SONYA BENEDICT!
