Richards by disqualification in 0:31:16.

[Round 1]: No-Time-Limit-Match: The Motor City Machine Guns (Alex Shelley and Chris Sabin) defeated Dark City Fight Club (Kory Chavis and Jon Davis) when A. Shelley pinned K. Chavis after the Double Enzuigiri in 0:30:15. Rating: * 1/2 The Guns with a nice win over the Dark City Fight Club to advance in the this tournament. This match was about even the whole way through with plenty of near falls and excitement.

Regal after the Running Forearm Smash in 0:20:00. Rating: 3/4 Well, Incoherence advances over The European Union after Delirious pinned regal following a Running Forearm Smash. Another close match.

Rating: 1/4 [Shane Hagadorn interfered against AJ Styles.] What a match, this one had the crowd on their feet from beginning to end. Austin Aries came this close to winning, but made the mistake of taking too much time going for the 450 Splash at the end, causing AJ to move out of the way, hit Aries with a kneedrop to add insult to injury, and pick up the victory. [Round 1]: No-Time-Limit-Match: Davey Richards pinned Mike Quackenbush with the DR Driver in 0:17:50. Rating: 1/2 [Shane Hagadorn interfered against Mike Quackenbush.] (Samoa Joe no-showed.) Wow, another match that kept the crowd on their feet. Originally it was supposed to be Samoa Joe vs. Quackenbush but Joe no-showed and was replaced by Davey Richards who put on a great match, despite already wrestling in the tag team tournament. So I guess, he'll end up wrestling AJ in the second round, which should be a good match in itself. [Round 1]: No-Time-Limit-Match: Mark Briscoe pinned Nigel McGuinness after a flying sunset flip in 0:19:07. Rating: * 1/4 Another decent match, but did not live up to the last two, but still a good match, and what many would consider an upset.

A lot of near falls in this one kept the crowd into this. [Semi-Finals]: No-Time-Limit-Match: Davey Richards pinned AJ Styles with the DR Driver in 0:28:13. Rating: 1/4 [Shane Hagadorn interfered against AJ Styles.] Davey Richards advances to the finals and will now take on the winner of the "Battle of Briscoe" [Semi-Finals]: No-Time-Limit-Match: Mark Briscoe pinned Jay Briscoe with the Cutthroat Suplex in 0:19:44. Rating: * 1/2 Mark Briscoe wins "The Battle of Briscoe" to advance to the finals against Davey Richards. This should be an interesting encounter as Richards and Briscoe are no strangers to one another. [Finals]: No-Time-Limit-Match for the vacant EPW American Continents Title: Mark Briscoe pinned Davey Richards after a superkick in 0:22:11. Rating: *** (Mark Briscoe won the EPW American Continents Title.) [Shane Hagadorn interfered against Mark Briscoe.] Well, Mark Briscoe is now the EPW American Continents Champion with a win over Briscoe rival Davey Richards in the final (and the thing was, Richards would not even have been in the final, or the tournament if it was not for Samoa Joe no showing in the first round), and this match had it all, and the fans loved every minute of it. Jimmy Jacobs and Roderick Strong battled to a draw in 0:20:00. Rating: 3/4 Jimmy Jacobs and Roderick Strong had a decent but not great match, and the crowd were not really into it. It ended up in a 20 minute draw which a re-match will take pace next week in the world title tournament. Bryan Danielson defeated Chris Hero when Chris Hero passed out in the Cattle Mutilation in 0:14:19. Rating: ** 1/4 A good showing by both Danielson and Hero tonight in the main event. They will actually meet again next week in the start of the world title tournament, and if it's anything like this match was, it's going to be a good one. So here's the rundown for next week The first 8 men in the World title tournament will wrestle in their matches: Jimmy Jacobs will face Roderick Strong again Chris Hero will face Danielson once again Jay Briscoe will battle Nigel McGuinness AJ Styles will face Claudio Castagnoli Also rematches from both of the tournament finals will take place next week as well, and both titles will be on the line Plus a few more surprises as well.

There was also a stipulation at stake as the winner of the match got to choose the stips of the match. So for the first time in EPW history, there will be no dq or countout, as the match will be contested in a pinfall only steel cage match. The Guns better be prepared.

Rating: 1/4 Wow, what a match. This match was great from beginning to end. The match ended in a double countout, and you could see from this match that these two don't like each other in the least. This could be the beginning of an incredible feud here in EPW. These two will meet each other again next week in a three way against the winner of the Austin Aries vs. Mike Quackenbush match in which the winner advances in the tournament which will determine the first ever EPW World Heavyweight Champion.

Tune in next week, as Richards has to defend against Mark's Brother Jay. Card rating: * 3/4 Next week will be beginning of the actual tournament, begging with the Joe vs. AJ vs. Aries three way elimination match.

OK, We are going to kick things off this week with two announcements. We have signed two new wrestlers to our roster, the first one being Elijah Burke who will be wrestling tonight. The second one will be the special guest referee of the main event between Jimmy Jacobs and Bryan Danielson. We had to make a lot of promises to get this guy on our roster, including an immediate World title shot as soon as possible... Austin Aries music hits and he comes out... Aries grabs the mike and says that this guy whoever he is does not deserve a title shot. He goes on about being the "Greatest Man That Ever Lived", and referring to himself as "A-Double", and says he will destroy whoever his opponent is. He then asks the announcer to at least tell him who it is, the announcer whispers something in his ear, and Aries jaw drops as he has a look of concern on his face. The camera fades as Aries leaves the ring looking shocked and concerned.

No-Time-Limit-No-Countout-No-DQ-Falls-Count-Anywhere Match: Mike Quackenbush pinned Robert Roode with the Quackendriver in 0:22:06. Rating: * 1/4 Nothing to really talk about during the match other than the fact that after the match was over a big unknown man attacked both Quack and Roode and took them both out! Anything Goes No-Time-Limit-No-Countout-No-DQ-Falls-Count-Anywhere Match: Lacey made Charlie Haas submit to an armbar submission in 0:18:16.

Barbed Wire Singapore Cane No-Time-Limit-No-Countout-No-DQ-Two-out-of-three-Falls Match with Special Referee : Super Dragon beat Chavo Guerrero 2 falls to 1: x S. Dragon beat Chavo via the Psycho Driver 2000 in 0:08:35 x Chavo beat S. Dragon via the Gory Bomb in 0:20:23 x S. Dragon beat Chavo via the Curb Stomp in 0:45:53 Rating: (Super Dragon retained the EPW World Heavyweight Title.) [Prince Nana interfered against Super Dragon.] Super Dragon won the math 2 falls to 1 despite interference from Prince Nana! This could only mean that Chavo has joined The Embassy, but in wrestling you can never be too sure. Until next week, so long everyone. Card rating: ** Match observations: Well we have two new titleholders in Rhett Titus as the new hardcore champion and Daffney as the new Women's champion Chris Hero continues his stranglehold on the AC title Phenomicide proved once again why they are the EPW World Tag Team Champions. A career in EPW has ended as Mr. Ernesto Osiris ended Excalibur's EPW career as a wrestler, but we here doubt that it's the last time we will hear his name. Chavo Guerrero put on a good effort but was still unable to take the World title from Super Dragon, but he may be a part of The Embassy now. CM Punk takes over AOTF and gives birth to the SES in EPW. Next week's main event will be Eric Young and CIMA battling EPW World champion Super Dragon in a three way cage match all that and more...

Rating: * [Prince Nana interfered against Charlie Haas.] Charlie Haas ended Mr. Ernie Osiris' unbeated streak in a great match that had it all, but after the match was when the real drama happened. Nana came in and both him and Osiris started to kick Haas and hit him with a chair until Chavo Guerrero came in and saved Haas!

Rating: 1/4 Sara Del Ray manages to pick up a victory, and surprisingly a clean victory over Cheerleader Melissa via a kneedrop.

Roode with the Glimmering Warlock in 0:18:13. Rating: 1/4 The Royal Guards secured their second win in a row, this time over Beer Money thanks to Arik Cannon's Glimmering Warlock to Robert Roode. The RG are doing well as of late and could very well be a threat to the EPW World Tag Team titles Barbed Wire No-Time-Limit-No-Countout-No-DQ-Triangle Match: The Order Of The Neo-Star Empire (Crossbones and UltraMantis Black) defeated The Briscoe Bros. (Jay Briscoe and Mark Briscoe) and The European Union (Claudio Castagnoli and William Regal): x J. Briscoe beat W. Regal via a leg lariat in 0:17:29 x Crossbones beat M. Briscoe via the Friggin' Sweet Driver in 0:24:29 Rating: * 1/2 Well, everyone expected either The Briscoes or The E.U (despite them not tagging lately) to win this match, but in the end it was The Order of the Neo-Star Empire that secured the big upset. No-Time-Limit-No-Countout-No-DQ-Falls-Count-Anywhere Match: Colt Cabana pinned Alex Shelley with the Colt .45 in 0:10:42. Rating: ** Colt Cabana picks up a win over Alex Shelley in a match where both men fought all over the arena.

Blood via the Elijah Express in 0:23:30 Rating: ** 3/4 A rather embarassing night for D'Lo Brown as he was eliminated by Drew Blood in this three way elimination match less than four minutes into the match, and Blood held his own until the end when Elijah Burke hit the Elijah Express for the win.

Bailey interfered against Masato Tanaka.] Rocky Romero picks up another win this week, and an impressive one it was as he made Masato Tanaka submit to the Romero Special #2. Extreme Barbed Wire Staple Gun Survival Taped Fist Death No-Time-Limit-No-Countout-No-DQ-Match: Necro Butcher pinned Kory Chavis with the Tiger Driver in 0:27:35. Rating: 1/2 Necro Butcher picks up big win this week, but has Samoa Joe next week which should be interesting considering the last time Necro and Joe competed against each other, it was one of the most brutal hardcore matches in American wrestling history. No-Time-Limit-No-Countout-No-DQ-Triangle Falls-Count-Anywhere Match: Yoshihiro Tajiri defeated Mike Quackenbush and Ruckus: x Tajiri beat M. Quackenbush via a rana in 0:12:37 x Tajiri beat Ruckus via the Brain Buster in 0:19:34 Rating: 1/2 Tajiri picks up the big win by eliminating both Mike Quackenbush and Ruckus in this three way.

Barbed Wire No-Time-Limit-No-Countout-No-DQ-Triangle Cage Match: Super Dragon defeated CIMA and Eric Young by escaping the cage in 0:48:58. Rating: * (Super Dragon retained the EPW World Heavyweight Title.) [Prince Nana interfered against Eric Young.] [Prince Nana interfered against CIMA.] Super Dragon walked into the arena tonight as one of the most beloved wrestlers in EPW but after what went down earlier tonight, he walked into the match as one of the most hated, and considering that his other two opponents were also heels and got a lot of cheers proved that the fans were disgusted with Dragon's choice to turn against them and join Prince Nana's Embassy. Although Dragon did get some support from some of the fans, CIMA was the clear favorite with the fans tonight. Next week Dragon's title will not be on the line as he teams with Brian Kendrick to take on Charlie Haas and Chavo Guerrero (ironically tonight we had a double turn, as this was the first time in EPW history that Chavo has worked a babyface role). Card rating: ** 1/4 Match observations: Well what an action filled week we had. Chris Hero continues his iron grip on the AC title, however he will have to defend it next week in a three man ladder match against CIMA and another opponent. The big masked man that attacked two wrestlers after the show last week did not show up this week, but we have it on good authority that he will be on the next show and will reveal his identity to the EPW fans. Next week on the show: Chris Hero (c) vs. CIMA vs. ??? (AC Title Match) Daffney (c) vs. Hamada (Superwomen title match) Rhett Titus (c) vs. Grizzly Redwood (not under contract) (hardcore title match) World Tag team Champions Phenomicide team up with Takeshi Morishima to take on The Briscoes and Dragon Kid in six man tag action. If The Briscoes win then they wil get a title shot at the PPV Samoa Joe takes on Necro Butcher. Two qualifying matches will take place to determine two of the 5 members that will get the title shot at Super Dragon in the Chamber of Chaos match at EPW New Year's Brawl 2009. Main event: Charlie Haas and Chavo Guerrero take on Brian Kendrick and Super Dragon all this plus more.

Rating: * (Daffney retained the EPW Superwomen Title.) For the second time tonight the roof was torn off this building, and who would have thunk that it would have been Daffney and Hamada to do so. This match was great with a lot of near falls, Daffney retained the title after the Lobotomy and the count. [Qualification Match 1]: No-Time-Limit-No-Countout-No-DQ-Falls-Count-Anywhere Match: Bryan Danielson made Eric Young submit to a cobra clutch in 0:29:11.

Rating: * 3/4 SDR continues her winning ways by defeating not one, but two former Superwomen champions in a cage match. This is a big win and will put her in line for a title shot at the PPV. However, Daffney puts her title on the line next week against Mercedes Martinez, which should be interesting. No-Time-Limit-No-Countout-No-DQ-Match: Ariel pinned Allison Danger with the Dariel in 0:35:02. Rating: * 3/4 Nice win for Ariel over Allison Danger in a solid match. No-Time-Limit-Match: Bison Smith and Bobby Lashley battled to a double countout in 0:23:41. Rating: 3/4 Well, the masked man that attacked a bunch of wrestlers last week was revealed to be Bison Smith, after Bobby Lashley came down the isle to challenge the masked man, and to come out without the mask, Smith came out and the match ended in a brawl that the ref had no other choice but to rule a double countout.

Drunken Fool	Posted on 07/05/10 at 02:36:37 i WAS GOING TO FINISH THE YEAR OFF BUT DECIDED AGAINST IT AND CLOSED THE CIRCUIT. I FELT MY ROSTER WAS GETTING A LITTLE TOO BLOATED ANYWAY I AM NOW GOING TO CONCENTRATE ON GWC AND WILL ALSO CREATE A NEW FANTASY WRESTLING CIRCUIT WHEN I CREATE ENOUGH CHARACTERS. I HAVE JUST SIGNED TWO NEW WRESTLERS TO GWC SINCE I HAVE CLOSED EPW, SO I SIGNED FORMER EPW TALENTS BRYAN DANIELSON AND CM PUNK TO GWC CONTRACTS
Drunken Fool	Posted on 07/06/10 at 22:11:10 Just to let you know that the final PPV was going to have every title change hands and the final champions were going to be as follows: EPW World Heavyweight: Bryan Danielson EPW American Continents Champion: William Regal EPW World Tag Team Champions: CM Punk and Jimmy Jacobs EPW Hardcore Champion: Delirious EPW Superwomen's Champion: Sara Del Ray Those were the plans, and to tell you the truth, I never really put the passion in this circuit that I wanted to, and the fact that I pretty much booked everything (other than tournaments) kind of defeated the purpose of having an element of surprise that would make me go What the Fuck just happened? Now I man eventually do a semi-booked circuit (which my fantasy circuit will be, but I doubt I will do a fullout booked circuit again, or at least for a long time.
