Rating: ***
(Jose Maximo no-showed.)


Jose Maximo was attacked prior to the match by The Flock which put Joel and Juvy at a disadvantage.

Or so we thought...it seems many people have been wronged by Raven. One of them was Chris Benoit and this was his chance to get a bit of revenge as he teamed up with Joel and Juvy to take on Raven and his followers.

In the end, it came down to Raven and Juvy facing off and the Head of the Class came out on top after a terrific Aztec suplex.

Johnny Ace stole the first fall by tagging himself in to take advantage of a vulnerable Scott Starring.

It then came down to the two top teams in Hard Knox in the end and it could've gone either way. Whitmer & Rhyno were all over The Triple Threat and came out with the pinfall.  I can see these two teams are NOT through with each other by far.

Up Next - Main Event time as Chuck Palumbo & Christophe Daniels compete in a triangle match against an unknown but debuting opponent.

Christopher Daniels entered the ring first and then Palumbo came down. Both men awaited the arrival of the other participant when Hard Knox officials came down to tell the ring announcer something.

It was then announced that not one but TWO new signees will be competing in this match and HERE THEY ARE...

"Pump Pump - the remix" by Bodtrom Productions played over the PA system as Da' Hit Squad (Mafia & Monsta Mack) came down to the ring.

Rating: *** 1/4


All that Palumbo and Christopher Daniels knew was that they were set to face two mystery opponents in this Four Way Dance.

Nobody expected the two other participants to be DA HIT SQUAD!

Mafia obviously wanted it more than Monsta Mack and showed that to his partner during the match on his way to gaining the win.

Card rating: *** 1/4


Hard Knox returns on February 25th for another event with the following matches scheduled so far:

* Chuck Palumbo vs Monsta Mack
Monsta Mack is not too happy with Chuck Palumbo for escaping from considerable harm during the main event this evening and has asked for a one on one match between them. That will occur on the 25th.

* Zach Gowen vs Travis LaGrange
Despite Zach Gowen being left behind in Hard Knox by a departing Chris Sabin, Gowen is willing to continue the fight that Sabin started against The Suicide Kings. The Kings have brought back their third member, Travis LaGrange (aka Mr Cowboy Hat) to Hard Knox and he has been signed to a 1 year deal. On the 25th, he will do battle against Gowen.

* Chris Benoit vs Abyss
The fans have been wanting this match to happen for a few months now and now they will get their wish.

* We will see competition for the Head of the Class title as Juventud Guerrera faces the winner of a three way dance between JOHNNY ACE, MAFIA and DESPAIR

* Amazing Red will face AJ Styles and Christopher Daniels in a 3 way dance

* Whitmer/Rhyno will team up to face The Harris Brothers

* Mohammed Yone faces Xavier

* Spikyjim faces Terry Funk

and much more to come.

Not exactly a great debut for Red, but at least the match had a nice rating.

Hurray sportsmanship!

Juvy destroys his old 'boss' Raven.    Nice.  Raven won't let that one slide I'm sure.

BOO INTERMISSION!  :)

Boo Gowen too.  A glass death match seems a little... unusual for Sabin and Gowen, but still.  I like seeing Sabin leave on the high note though

Imagine that, CsC lost. ;)

Rhyno & Whitmer once again the dominant tag force.  I'm not familiar with Mafia or Monsta Mack, but from this showing Mafia may become a quickly dominant force, even if it's not in the main event scene.

Benoit vs. Abyss, the epic re-match.  Benoit is gonna get the W i think.

And if Mafia wins the 3-way, he may become a major player sooner than expected.

Whitmer & Rhyno may have their toughest tag opponents in the Harris Brothers as well.  It may be tought for them to stay the dominant team they are.

There's your feedback... whore.  :)

hehe I can always count on you to give me something to work with in the future =)
Shaun SindelmanPosted on 04/01/05 at 00:45:15

Yea - indy fans love Red =)

hehe - glad to see someone appreciates a good hand raising

Oh you know Raven hasnt had the last bite at Juvy. If he wanted to hit him hard, he'd do somethign bout that gold around his waist.

Yea i shouldve gone a different route for the final blowout btwn Sabin and The Kings but Spikyjim/Despair wouldve wanted it to be as extreme as possible so thats what i delivered.

Hehe - the last of CsC - THANK GOD!

Yep - i can totally see Rhyno/Whitmer as future tag champs. Mafia & Monsta Mack are two big guys from the indy scene (ROH mainly).
