- [Announcer] The
following is a presentation
of the United Wrestling Network.
- Welcome to
Championship Wrestling
presented by West
Coast Pro Wrestling.
I am Bimbo Jimbo Kincaid
coming to you yet again,
and you guessed it, out of
my home in San Francisco,
and I'm so excited to go
back into the archives today
with all of you because
on this edition,
we have so much going on.
The Television Champion,
Dan Joseph will defend
against Ice Williams
and in the main event,
the Percy Pringle III
Cup Tournament continues
with Ray Rosas taking
on Jordan Clearwater
and the timeless one, Levi
Shapiro, my broadcast partner,
well, he's got a surprise
or two in store for him.
All that and more
on this episode.
This is Championship Wrestling.
So sit back, relax and enjoy.
- Heyyyy ohhhh!
- [Todd] What a way to kick off
the action with championship
on the line, the United
Television Title up for grabs.
This is a main event
caliber match up
and this is how we're
gonna kick things off
as Ice Williams makes his bid
to become the new
television champion.
- What an opportunity for
this young man right now
who shows all the promise
and potential in the world.
Imagine what it's gonna be like
when Dan Joseph loses
to Ice Williams.
- Okay!
(guitar music)
(crowd cheering)
- [Todd] And here
you see the champion,
(crowd cheering)
a champion of the people and
the United Television Champion.
What a ride its been,
seeing Dan Joseph transition
after the injury.
His time here in the
broadcast position
back to in ring and all the
way up to championship gold.
- [Andrew] Yeah, how proud he
must be, how proud he must be.
- [Todd] You know what,
I'm a Broadcast Journalist.
Maybe I'll be the champion next.
Since they're just
handing them out
to people like Dan Joseph.
What a jerk this guy is.
What a way to kick things off.
Championship on the line
here to set the stage,
our own, Adnan Qureshi .
- He knows it. He knows it.
The following contest is
scheduled for one fall
and it is for the United
Television Championship!
Introducing first,
the challenger,
from Long Beach, California;
weighing in at 175 pounds.
He is the coldest wrestler
on the planet. Ice Williams!
(crowd cheering)
- Hey, hey!
- And introducing the champion
from Buffalo, New York;
weighing in at 204 pounds,
he is the United Television
Champion. Dan Joseph!
(crowd booing)
- [Todd] Stage is set,
television title on the line.
Dan Joseph you were
called defeated
then champion Royce
Isaacs, an open challenge
to win the title.
- [Andrew] Everybody
gets lucky every now
and then. Second time offense on
this program. Held
onto the title
in unique fashion.
First time out
you'll recall he was
taken on Levi Shapiro.
Buddy Royal hit the
ring, so Dan Joseph
actually lost that match
by disqualification.
Does not lose the
title but the way
he was celebrating you would've
thought he won the Olympics.
- [Todd] Now you know
what, it's one thing to
add insult to injury but
there's not even an injury.
He lost the match
but still celebrated
like a buffoon. While these
idiots cheered him on.
This man is a disgrace
to the championship now.
Nice suplex there by the
champion. There ya go!
What's good for the goose
is good for the gander.
Haha
- [Andrew] That's ridiculous
- [Todd] That's
joseph havin some fun.
- [Andrew] Absurd is
what it is Keneley.
- [Todd] Swing and a miss there.
And again, Ice Williams
trying to use his agility
but a roll up by Dan Joseph.
Dan Joseph, actually
a step ahead of
the lightning fast
challenger here. Impressive!
- [Andrew] Well, Dan
Joseph is a very smart,
cunning individual.
I'll give you that.
Absolutely knows how to work
around his opponent
but make no mistake
about it. He's had one
defense so far and he lost.
Okay, that's not a good record
for this champion right now.
Look at the power on
display by the champion
count goes up by the faithful.
And hear the challenger
imploring put me down.
well, careful what you wish for!
- [Todd] Yeah that's
not exactly the manner
I'm sure he wished
to be put down in.
- [Andrew] Big swinging
slam there by the champion.
Dan Joesph follows it up nicely
with the elbow drop,
covers center of the ring,
only accounted two. Ice
Williams was in this years
PP3 tournament,
qualified oddly enough
with a victory over
Jordan Clearwater
and Clearwater finds
himself in the semis
later on because Jordan
Clearwater got that second shot.
- [Todd] Yeah okay somebody
else is getting something
they don't deserve. Let
me tell you somethin
this whole broadcast it's
one thing after another
of teaching the
kids out there that
you don't even have to
try, you can just go ahead
and win championships
and opportunities
all ya want, even if you're
a loser like Dan Joseph is.
If memory serves me
correctly Ice Williams lost
to Andrew Brown in
the quarter finals.
So did not go through the ranks
to earn a title shot but
gets one none the less
here for the television
title. Little hockey brawl
in there by Dan Joseph.
Dan Joseph originally
out of the east coast, he
loves a good hockey brawl.
- [Andrew] Well
good for Dan Joseph
Dan Joseph, ya know I
have no problem with him,
but this hotdog in a
grand stand is disgusting.
- [Todd] Oh no! Champ
goes down in a heap
all the way to the
outside. The Challenger
in control, this title
match continues next.
[Commentator] Welcome
back to our battle
for the United Television title.
Before the break, a
huge turning point.
Dropkick by Ice Williams sent
the champion all the way down
to the unforgiving floor
of the Ocean View Pavilion.
Its been all Ice
Williams ever since.
You wanna talk about
a long way down,
that's a long way down
that Dan Joseph hit
into the floor.
Lucky for Dan Joseph,
he has like six feet
of beard on his face,
which protected him
from getting some sort
of a vital grade injury.
Very, very fortunate
for Dan Joseph, Keneley.
- [Keneley] I don't think
you're great at measurements
- [Commentator] That's six
for six feet, six inches--
I think you recently
said that Robin Shaw
weighed in around, you know,
seven, eight hundred pounds.
I think you're a little off.
But now, brimming with
confidence is Ice Williams
as well as he should be.
He's that much closer
to a championship.
Imagine, again now, the
upset when Dan Joseph
in his second match,
gets defeated. Never mind.
How's that for a sidewalk slam?
All the momentum,
all the velocity comes
crashing down there,
beautifully done.
Centripetal force at its best.
It looked like a
discus just spinning
and spinning and spinning.
Ice Williams damn near
went vertical on that.
Its got to make it
tough to kick out
if you're disoriented as
well as feeling the impact.
- Yeah, that
dizziness is no joke,
but neither of those
strikes from Ice Williams,
who still manages to take
control over this match.
Cover now by the challenger
looking to make history
and history was made
just a couple weeks ago.
We crowned new tag
team champions,
saw em in action last week,
Sickening display.
A great match with Wasted
Youth and Andy Brown
and Ray Rosas, Adrian
Quest on the attack.
What was that all about?
- [Commentator] What was that
all about? It was about--
- [Keneley] Holding here, cover.
- [Commentator] A statement is
what its all about, Keneley.
It's all about
making a statement.
When you're a new-formed
team, especially,
you have to make some
sort of a footprint
in the area of the arena.
That's exactly what they did.
Guaranteed no one's
gonna mess with them.
- [Keneley] Double take
leg takedown there.
End of the jackknife, cover.
Nice fundamental wrestling
there by the champion
who eats a big
flying clothesline.
Talk about a frozen rope
there by Ice Williams.
And you see the effects
etched all over the face
of the champion.
Ice Williams looking
for the pin in the wind,
only comes up with two.
Of course, we'll see Ray Rosas
later on in our main event.
They made a statement last week.
As you mentioned, Rosas
faces Jordan Clearwater
in a PP3 semi-final match.
If he goes into the finals,
imagine the power
play that'll be.
- [Commentator]
Imagine this, Keneley,
is that Adrian
Quest or Andy Brown
or Ray Rosas if
they have a match,
neither of them will come alone.
That means its three on one,
at best, at best, Keneley.
That does not bode well
for their opponents.
- [Keneley] I think Ice Williams
was looking for a suplex
or a throw there,
but really wrenching
in the side headlock
was the champion, Dan Joseph,
now gets taken for a ride,
belly to back suplex nicely
executed by the challenger.
Little slow to cover,
now looking to
capitalize, down to two.
- [Commentator] And you can
tell its a pivotal mistake
by a newcomer.
Ice Williams, not going
for the cover right away.
Needs to be a little
quicker with those covers.
He's fast in every single
else thing he does.
He needs to make sure
that he capitalizes
just as fast as he throws
layer hits and arm drags
and everything else he does.
He needs to cover right away.
- [Keneley] Mention that
previous title defense
for Dan Joseph
against Levi Shapiro.
Shapiro will be in action
this week as well coming up.
Levi Shapiro got
that nasty claw,
just absolutely disgusting.
But what he did with
Buddy Royal was just,
it was sickening almost.
- [Keneley] Buddy Royal got
a measure of revenge, though.
Dan Joseph digging down deep.
You gotta love the gutsy nature
of the champion that
never say die attitude.
They continue to fight on.
Oh, no, not again.
If this happens again,
it could be curtains
for the champ.
I hope he can eat another
fall to the outside.
Able to right the
ship this time,
flying clothesline
by the champion.
Very smart by Dan Joseph was
batting away that dropkick
by Ice Williams cause
surely that would have been
another spill to the
floor there indeed.
But Dan Joseph now in control ,
into the cover now
after the clothesline
Fundamentals gets
him close there
and of course a
little revenge there.
You saw the big flying
clothesline earlier
by the challenger, Ice Williams.
Nice clothesline by Dan Joseph.
Looks like the champ's
measuring him here.
- [Commentator] Oh, this could
be a long way down, Kelley,
but Ice Williams had
a nice little counter.
And that was a long way down
for Dan Joseph.
Ice Williams might be able
to have this victory sealed.
As Stu Stone would say,
sending shivers down his spine.
I see a little bit
of the frozen rope
into the elbow drop.
Are we gonna clown a brand-new
television champion?
The hand coming
down! That was close!
- [Commentator] Subzero is
the heart of Ice Williams.
This man has it all.
Amazing potential to
put away the champion.
This might be O for two for
Dan Joseph's title defenses.
- [Keneley] Mentioned
earlier, Ice Williams trying
to put that title reign of
Dan Joseph in the deep freeze.
He's looking for the icebreaker.
He's got a measure
for that super kick.
Nullified there by the champion,
nicely done and back
to the striking.
Not flashy, but
effective for the champ.
Look out here, round
and round they go.
There it is!
- Oh.
- Oh he caught him!
- He caught him
with the icebreaker!
- New Champion!
- [Keneley] History to
be made! No sir, not yet!
- [Commentator] Unbelievable.
Unbelievable is what we
just witnessed, Keneley.
- (crowd) This is Awesome!
- [Commentator] And
listen to the crowd.
- (crowd) This is Awesome!
- [Commentator] They're
obviously very happy I'm here.
- [Keneley] What? What is
"This is awesome!
This is awesome!"?
- What are you
talking about, jazzy?
- [Commentator] That was
my name in high school.
It was This is awesome.
- [Keneley] Ah.
- They chant me in the hall.
- And again we got
to remind you,
this is how we're kicking
things off this week.
What a championship
clash this has been.
This is just the beginning,
absolutely, indeed.
That is why this has been
around for 10 years, Keneley.
Ten long years has this
company been around
doing things like this.
This is just the beginning
but this might be the
end for Ice Williams!
- [Keneley] Oh! Looking for it!
Does he have enough left?
Oh! Pulls up though. He
might get the roll-up!
(bell dings)
[Announcer] Here is your winner!
And still United
Television Champion,
Dan Joseph!
(crowd cheers and boos)
- [Keneley] Gutsy performance,
gutsy title defense
by the reigning United
Television champion, Dan Joseph.
I'm told we're gonna have
backstage standing by.
Buddy Royal has got
something to say.
- All right, ladies
and gentlemen,
Jeff Resnick here at
Championship Wrestling
From Hollywood
with Buddy Royal.
Now Buddy, you have had a
lot of issues as of late
and recent weeks with your
former tag team partner,
Levi Shapiro.
It's a complicated
personal situation.
Where do we go from here?
What are your thoughts?
- My thoughts?
Me and Levi Shapiro were
more than tag team partners.
We were brothers
from another mother.
We were thick as thieves.
but obviously money has come
between us and how they price.
Well you know the biggest thing
this has made me
realize a little bit,
the difference between
me and Levi Shapiro
is he's willing to
take the shortcuts.
See every time he was in trouble
in the ring, he was always,
"Buddy! Buddy!",
reaching out for that tag.
So I can get in and do
what I do best, wrestle.
And that's what I prove
to do from here on out.
You see Levi Shapiro,
there ain't no
shortcuts anymore.
I'm putting it out there.
Refs around the corner,
PP3 finals is not a
matter of if anymore.
It's when and when I
get my hands on you,
I'm tapping you out.
That's for sure.
- All right, ladies
and gentlemen,
the challenge has been issued.
We'll be right back
with Championship
Wrestling From Hollywood.
(upbeat music)
- [Announcer] The
following contest is
a single match
scheduled for one fall.
Introducing first,
from Redwood City,
California, weighing
in at 185 pounds,
Jack Banning!
- [Announcer] Welcome back to
Championship Wrestling
from Hollywood,
we take a look at Jack Banning,
certainly won't shy
away from a fight.
We've seen him in
there with the likes of
the heritage champion,
Watts, in the past.
Tough opposition coming
his way this week, as well.
Very scary, I hope you're ready
for the worst headache of
your life, Jack Banning.
It's coming.
- Levi, there's so much talking,
there's so much mouth
running of people who
think that they can run
with The Charging Bull,
with The Golden Horns.
Especially, Ben
Davis in that ring.
Levi, get in there
and make this quick.
It's feeding time.
- [Announcer] You
heard Howdy Price there
saying it's feeding time,
handle this business
in short order.
You know what, every
time he comes out
he has some sort of a mic issue,
I think you're
unplugging it from here.
(crowd yelling)
Gremlins in the
back, whoever it is,
I applaud their efforts.
(crowd talking)
Yeah, ear piercing
tones of Howdy Price.
And Levi Shapiro, in
the opening seconds,
tried to charge in and
throw in a kick out there
was Banning.
North south position,
here by Levi Shapiro and
you mentioned it,
that vicious claw hold
that he has
perfected, put it even
on his own former
partner, Buddy Royal.
Just would not relinquish
it, but Buddy Royal
with a bit of revenge
recently locking in that
Royal seal submission
in his own rank.
- [Announcer] Yeah, well
it's easy to do something
to somebody that's
unprepared and that's
exactly what Buddy Royal
did, he took advantage
of somebody who was not
quite prepared for something.
But I guarantee
Levi Shapiro won't
make that mistake again.
And you saw what
Levi Shapiro did,
he came in right
away and grabbed
the head of Jack
Banning, already wearing
down that noggin of
his, who's stupid
enough to get in the
ring with someone
like Shapiro in the first place.
- [Announcer] And
Shapiro is now an analyst
for us up in the Bay
Area in San Francisco,
on KGO and ABC and
he's been mouthing off.
He's in the studio, he's
got ample opportunities
on a microphone to
mouth off and I'm happy
that we've finally heard
now from Buddy Royal,
issuing the challenge, we'll
see if Shapiro will accept.
- [Announcer] Oh,
you guarantee Shapiro
will accept, I promise you that.
Shapiro is 100%
man, he will back up
every single thing he says.
However long it takes
him to trash talk
Buddy Royal in the studio,
Shapiro is gonna take that
opportunity, because
he knows damn well
when it comes time
to walk the walk,
he's gonna back up the talk.
- [Announcer] We'll
see, we'll see
if Shapiro decides
to put maybe how many
price, his money
where his mouth is.
And now, attacking the
eyes of Jack Banning,
just a vicious attack
here by Shapiro.
- [Announcer] Shapiro
is very ruthless,
very vigorous in
his opportunities.
He takes every single
opportunity he could
possibly have in front
of him, and he exploits
it for all it's worth.
That's exactly
what's going on here.
Floats over after the
suplex, goes for the win,
textboook execution
there by Levi Shapiro.
And again now, someone
like Shapiro who has
a move like that claw,
is just having one move
on the head and the
neck after another.
You see that he's
wearing down the head,
the cranium, and look at that.
He's even got like
a little modified
claw on Banning right now.
- [Announcer] Could be
softening up Banning here
to lock in that claw
in it's ultimate
form later on.
The neck vice right
now by Shapiro.
And Banning, tough competitor,
fights his way out
but hits the knee.
It's got there, kitchen sink.
Dropping the elbow and,
I'll tell you,
Shapiro, he's tough.
When he's got the
advantage, he does not
make many mistakes.
Elbow off the second rope
there, into the cover,
looking to put away
Banning, not yet.
A man like Shapiro, not
only does he go after you
but he continues
to go after you,
he doesn't give a lot
of time, even though
he's smart, methodical
he's cunning and
he plans his moves.
You wouldn't even know that
by the way he wrestles,
cause it's one move after
another after another.
Never gives his
opponents some time
to catch his breath or
capitalize on a mistake.
- [Announcer]
Forearm strikes there
by Banning, backs up Shapiro.
Shapiro caught him.
Oh, my god!
Sticks him there!
That was part piledriver,
part powerbomb,
all devastating and almost
put him away with it.
Yikes!
- [Announcer] And he
may not be able to
get that victory.
That might not be
able to seal the deal,
but you know what that
did, that crippled his head
even more.
That's what Shapiro
is going after.
He's going down to
wear him down slowly
and methodically, so
when it comes time
to finally put
that claw in, he is
at the mercy of Shapiro.
- [Announcer] More punishment
to the head and neck
region there with
that neck snap.
By Levi Shapiro.
(Levi yelling)
Did you hear that by Banning?
He's like, "Tag me buddy"
what does that even mean?
Banning was like,
"Tag me, buddy."
- [Announcer] We
heard Buddy Royal's
comments in that
backstage challenge saying
that in essence he was
making light and saying
that's what Shapiro
was in tag team action,
as Shapiro goes for the cover.
That Shapiro would
get in trouble,
that all he could do was
reach out and ask for the tag,
that he'd be helpless.
Yeah, we heard those
words of Buddy Royal
and obviously, certainly
got under the skin
of Levi Shapiro and
it might've gotten the
desired effect because
it might get Shapiro
into that challenge,
into that match
that Buddy Royal wants.
- [Announcer] In my
opinion, you're waking
a sleeping giant is
what you're doing.
- [Announcer] Shapiro,
as mean as he is already,
you don't want to
make him angry.
If you go over there and
you mock someone like that,
all they're gonna do
is take their rage and
frustration out in front
of every single person
in their way, on
their way to you.
- [Announcer] Looking
for the scent on there,
I was gonna question
the focus of Shapiro
as Jack Banning started
to string together
the strikes.
Nice counter by Banning.
Throwing these forearms.
- [Announcer] Hit
pay dirt with that.
There we see the bulldog.
- [Announcer] A bulldog,
and you know what's
coming up next, here
it comes Kennely.
The most deadly move in
professional wrestling today,
it's the claw, baby!
- [Announcer] Had him
measured after the bulldog,
Banning didn't know
which way was up and now
finds himself ceased
in this iron claw.
That's gonna do it,
that's gonna do it.
- [Announcer] Here
is your winner!
Levi Shapiro!
(bells)
- [Announcer] Let
go of that hold.
This is what he
did to Buddy Royal,
the match is over,
let go of the hold.
- [Announcer]
Unbelievable, there he is.
Your man, Kennely.
Let's take a look
back at the action.
A replay brought to you
by the St. Patricks Day
festival coming your way
featuring the street dogs
Floggy Molly and Mad Kattys.
And here we see a Jack
Banning showing some fight
but in the end the
bulldog, the claw, enough
to get the Duke.
And standing by, our
own Jeff Resnick,
here to get a word.
- All right, Levi
Shapiro, Howdy Price
big win over Jack Banning,
but I'm cutting right
to the chase.
As you know, Buddy Royal
has issued a challenge,
one on one with
you, Levi Shapiro
at the PP3 Cup Finals,
what do you got to say?
- Well, first off-
- Whoa, whoa, whoa, Howdy.
I got this.
Buddy Royal, you've
made a grave decision.
Before I came out here I
was in Nico Marquez office,
he guaranteed that the
DQ that you caused,
gives me number
one contendership.
You wanna lay down a challenge,
well you know what they say,
you're never gonna
beat me, Buddy Royal.
So, go ahead.
You know what, I
believe it so much,
I'll put my number one
contendership on the line
cause I know you in
and out and I'm gonna
guarantee to snap your cranium.
(yells)
- Howdy!
(laughs)
(upbeat rock music)
- [Announcer] The
following contest
is a tag team match
scheduled for one call.
Introducing first, the
team of Johnny Yuma
and Kevin Martinson,
the Vermin!
(cheers)
- [Commentator] Gettin'
set for Tag Team Action.
It had been quite some
time since we had seen
Kevin Martinson on this program.
Rewind all the way back
to the PP3 qualifiers
where he was defeated
by Ryan Kidd,
then injured Ryan Kidd
until we saw him launch
back into action in a
attack on the Wolf Zaddies
- [Commentator 2] Attack
on the Wolf Zaddies!
He gave 'em fair
warning, he said
"We do not come alone!"
And there they are,
boys and girls! My boys!
Vermin...
(upbeat rock music)
- [Announcer] And
introducing their opponents
at a combined weight of 486 lbs,
the team of the Neon
Phenomenon, Anthony Idol
and Frankie Frank!
- [Commentator] These two,
the,
Neon Phenomenon and the man
who's in the lounge
in every town
have forged a pretty
interesting team
that has scored some victories.
These two actually qualified
for the PP3 together
in Tag Team Action
and that certainly bodes
well for Anthony Idol
who finds himself in the finals.
And that, coming up, of course,
at the big PP3 blockbuster.
- [Commentator 2]
Anthony Idol's already
sealed his deal,
he's got one more
opponent to face
and then it's all over.
Maybe Anthony Idol will go on,
but we all know that's
not gonna be the case,
but he might.
And Frankie Frank, let
me tell you somethin'.
This young man has
impressed me as of late.
He had that incredible
with Ray Rosas.
Unbelievable talent
this up-and-comer is,
but let's not forget
who their opponents are,
that's Vermin.
They don't take no
guff from nobody,
I guarantee you that.
Very very short
match in the work,
as Vermin will stand tall.
- Well, your comment there,
[Bell Dings]
"won't take guff," you know,
I'll have to agree
with you there.
Not too many teams
are taking a number
to raise the ire of
the Wolf Zaddies,
and that's exactly what
Vermin has, you know,
figuratively done.
And I think that really
stemming from the fact,
that Yuma, I think taking
offense to the fact
that Bad Dude Tito
is not honoring
his Vermin roots.
- Well, come on now, I mean,
how many opportunities
has Yuma gone in there
and tried to give
Tito the rub, and say
"Hey, you know, remember me?"
And then Tito just
stubs 'em off.
Wouldn't you be offended too?
Like if Dan Joseph
just came back here
and was just like,
and you were like "Hey
Dan, I love you so much!"
"I miss you!" You know,
like you do every week,
and Dan Joseph just
walked past you,
you'd be angry at
him, you know that.
- Boy, that was a pretty, good,
that was impressive.
[Screams]
- Strength on display here
by Anthony Idol,
and we mentioned
we're gonna find out who
will face Anthony Idol
later on in this
program as Ray Rosas
battles Jordan Clearwater in the
other side of the bracket
in the semifinals.
[Yells]
- Oh boy, Mr. Yuma, that
was not a smart idea
on your part, I'll
be honest with ya'.
- Johnny Yuma trying to
sneak up from behind.
That little rat should scamper
right back out of the ring.
Double team offense now,
that's one way to get him out.
[Claps]
- He tagged in Frankie Frank?
I don't know if that's
a very smart move,
Frankie Frank might screw
this whole thing up!
- Frankie Frank was enjoying
the biggest win streak
of his career recently,
and you mentioned
that incredible, uh,
matchup with Ray Rosas
in the quarterfinals.
Swing and a miss there
by Frankie Frank.
Ah, I love that.
The wrist control,
the "why're you
hittin' yourself?"
- Wow.
- That's gotta be
illegal, Keneley.
It's gotta be illegal!
Big brothers all
across the world
are gonna be stealing that one.
Abdominal stretch now, here
by Frankie Frank.
- And look what's going
on on the outside,
Mr. Yuma
angering the sleeping giant,
not a very very smart move!
- Not at all.
Scurrying back in now.
All four men--
Get that man outta there, ref,
he's not the legal man.
He's not the legal man!
Trying to take
advantage was Yuma,
and Frankie Frank
was wise to it,
I'll tell ya, Frankie Frank,
impressive as of late.
Dividing and conquering against
one of the most dominant
teams in the history,
in the ten year history
of this program.
Oh, until then.
Some of that signature
double teaming.
Into the cover now
goes Kevin Martinson.
And we celebrate an entire
decade of action here
at Championship
Wrestling from Hollywood,
and a good chunk of
that time was dominated
by the faction known as Vermin.
- Well, Vermin is a very
very dominant force,
no question about it.
And you saw that
by Frankie Frank
trying to take
control over both men
at the same time. Very foolish.
He should've just
cut his losses,
maybe laid down and let Vermin
do whatever they wanted to him,
'cause it's gonna only
delay the inevitable,
as Johnny Yuma now
taking advantage
of Frankie Frank,
to give him some his
assets there, Keneley.
- Yep, stealin' a page
outta my playbook there.
Tag is made,
Kevin Martinson about
to check back in
and it was the double teaming.
Uh oh, look out here,
not where you wanna go.
And a seated splash.
- The Nasty Boys
had something called
the Pit Stop.
Maybe you could call
that the Crack Shack
- There ya go.
- Frankie Frank, he's trying to,
trying to scurry home,
I don't blame him.
If I had someone
like Mr. Martinson
goin after me, I'd go ahead
and try to run away too.
You notice every time they tag,
they got that V thing
goin'? That's pretty cool.
- You're easily
impressed, apparently.
- I like these guys.
- More double teaming by Vermin,
they have been in control and,
really a more established
team, obviously,
former tag team
champions are Vermin.
Uh oh! A little
friendly fire there.
You can see the shock
and dismay on the face
of Martinson who
eats a big shot there
by Frankie Frank.
And he's got a finalist
in the PP3 tournament
with an outstretched hand.
And the Neon
Phenomenon can cause
a variety of damage.
- Oh, he was lickin' his
chops on the outside,
and now its time to
feed Anthony Idol
in there with the ferocity
like nobody's business!
With the punches in
the left and the right,
they go to Yuma
and Mr. Martinson!
Oh my goodness!
In the public, if you will.
Can't hit that bionic
elbow, at least not yet.
Into the power slam,
calling the audible
is the big man.
Here's the cover,
looking to put him away.
Only a count of two.
- Yuma again, now, we're
talkin' about tenacity
and ferocity,
and Yuma has all that, too.
Despite his size, that
man has the heart of gold.
He will go up and he
will fight to the death,
Keneley.
- I don't know if I would've
tagged Frankie Frank back in.
He had eaten some
punishment, and now,
Idol hits the post
on the outside!
You can see it on the
back of your screen there.
And a wide open strike by Yuma.
- Yeah, Vermin Baby!
- Obviously Idol was trying
to run away and not--
(howls)
- Oh no, we've got
company, Keneley.
- There they are!
The Wolf Zaddies
are in the house
with the distraction.
Latino Meat, Bad Dude Tito!
The turnabout's fair play.
Oh that was the lights
out! In the ring!
In the ring the light's
out, that palm strike!
- Frankie Frank did it!
Unbelievable!
- [Announcer] Here
are your winners:
Anthony Idol and Frankie Frank!
(cheers)
- What a win!
What a win! Frankie Frank,
hit 'em with the lights out,
scores the pin for his team.
And the PP3 semifinals
comin' up next
in our main event,
don't go anywhere.
(screams)
- Welcome back to Championship
Wrestling From Hollywood,
I'm Jeff Reznik and allow
me to bring in my next
guests the Wolf
Zaddies, Che and Tito.
Gentlemen we just saw you
cost Vermin their tag team
matchup, and of course
Johnny Yuma has been in
your hair the past few
weeks, where do things go
from here?
Seems like things
are escalating.
- [Che] You see, Tito's the
one with history with Vermin
and I always got my boys
back, so imma let him handle
this one. Tito, spit some fire
- [Tito] Yuma Yuma Yuma! We
see you, we see you sniffing
around, bringing
that ugly mug around,
stirring up problems.
Talking Vermin this and
Vermin that, and throwing up
the V. But let me
tell you something,
Vermin was in the past,
you've gained a couple,
you're looking like trash and
at the PP3 cup we're kicking
your ass.
(both men howl like wolves)
- Alright ladies and gentlemen,
the challenge has been
issued.
Don't go anywhere, stay
tuned, our main event is next.
(intro music and boo's)
- [Announcer] The following
contest is scheduled for
1 fall and it is
a semifinal match
in the PP3 cup tournament.
Introducing first, being
accompanied to the ring by
Adrian Quest, and Andy Brown
from Antelope Valley, weighing
in at 191 lbs, Ray Rosas!
- [Commentator] This trio
already has quite a bit
of power and influence as
the reigning united tag team
champions in Adrian Quest,
Andy Brown, and Ray Rosas
looking to punch his
ticket to the finals of PP3
in the big tournament
and one step away perhaps
for a shot at Percy's Privilege.
- [Commentator #2] Can
you imagine it's all
coming down to these
last few matches.
Ray Rosas has always been
my number one pick all along
and there with his two
buddies by his side he's gonna
seal his fate tonight
as I it said before,
and flush that golden nugget.
(laughing)
(intro music and cheering)
- [Announcer] And
introducing his opponent,
weighing in at 215 lbs,
he is The Golden Boy,
Jordan Clearwater!
- [Commentator #1] Golden
opportunity for The Golden Boy
in that second shot at
qualifying defeated Ryan Kid in
the quarter finals, finds
himself here in the semi's.
Interesting the way the
brackets lined up as a whole
lot of history between
these two semifinalists,
I'm talking about Ray
Rosas and The Golden Boy.
- [Commentator #2] Poetic
justice at its best Kennelly,
here it is the opportunity
has come for a lot of lost
chances here but Jordan
Clearwater needs to really
focus his sights on Ray
Rosas and what lies beyond
instead of Ray Rosas and
the feud that he has.
There is no love lost
between these two,
but this cannot be personal
if he wants one snowball
shot in hell, he's gonna
make sure that he makes this
all about business and
you know what Kennelly,
he doesn't have it in his heart.
(laughing)
- [Commentator #1] At one
time, The Golden Boy was
under the learning
tree of Ray Rosas,
Rosas a decorated champion,
here tag team champion,
in the past a
television champion
as well.
- [Commentator #2] You know,
Clearwater was kinda enjoying
the tutelage of Ray Rosas,
until Rosas at the time
had a bit of a
losing streak a skid.
Clearwater starts to
get some momentum,
it was just too much for
Rosas to handle, he snapped
and flash forward to today
where both have a huge
opportunity to advance
to the finals of the PP3.
- [Commentator #1] I love
how you leave out vital
pieces of information, for
all of you listening at home
let me explain the way
it really happened okay,
is that Jordan Clearwater
was trying to tell Ray Rosas
what to do with his career
and Ray Rosas doesn't want
to take that from anybody
and he paid the ultimate
price for it, that's
what happened Kennelly.
- [Commentator #1] When
Rosas was down on his luck,
Clearwater continued to
believe in his mentor.
- [Commentator #2] To barrage
and say "oh these fans need
you, I need you" unbelievable.
Think about this,
Jordan Clearwater
is not even a man at all,
in fact the only reason he's
in the tournament to begin
with for a second chance is
because somebody
else got injured.
That somebody you want to
set the golden standard,
absolutely not! Jordan
Clearwater makes
me sick Kennelly
- [Commentator #1] Well
it's that fighter mentality,
you always have to be ready,
you never know when that
opportunity is gonna come.
High elevation back drop,
and The Golden Boy doesn't
want to squander this second
opportunity and he made good
as I mentioned in the quarter
finals, defeated Ryan Kid.
Ryan Kid had defeated Kevin
Martenson in the qualifying
match so, you know he got
past a quality opponent to
earn this opportunity
in the semifinals.
Wow all kinds of momentum
there into that top turnbuckle.
- [Commentator #2] You call
it earning an opportunity,
I call it being in the right
place at the right time,
that's all it was, in fact
if you really want to go by
the rule book Ray Rosas
should've just gotten a bye
in this match. He should
already be in the finals
against Anthony Idle.
I know he's going to do
it anyway, but figure this
he shouldn't have to put
his body through this
torment that Jordan Clearwater's
gonna put him through
to get there.
- [Commentor #1] Nice suplex
there by Jordan Clearwater,
The Golden Boy to
his former mentor.
Now here's what you've gotta
contend with when you're
in there with one of these
three, you gotta have
your head on a swivel, one
half of the tag team champions
getting involved, misdirection
play but Clearwater able
to ward it off, at least at
this point in the matchup.
- [Commentator #2] Well like I
said from the very beginning,
when you're in there
with Ray Rosas,
you're in there with
Quest and Brown,
if you're in there with Brown,
you're in there with
Quest and Rosas,
if you're in there with Quest,
you're in there with
Rosas and Brown.
These men do not come alone,
every single thing in there
is a factor and you have
to make sure you account
for every single factor.
It's 3 on 1, make no mistake
about it, and the stakes
are oddly against Clearwater.
- [Commentator #1] The
crowd wants another chop,
well Clearwater will deliver,
quiet please hold on.
Oh nobody home for that one,
a swing and a miss likewise.
There it is, took a while to
get there but hits it none
the less.
At the expense of Ray Rosas,
again an opportunity to
move onto the finals to face
the Neon Phenomenon who's
got all kinds of momentum,
we just saw in our last
matchup Antony Idle victorious
along with Frankie Frank
over none other than Vermin,
one of the top teams in the
history of this program,
but a little assist
by The Wolf Zaddies.
- [Commentator #2] Here we
go now, I was waiting for
that little part.
You talk about a little assist,
I love how you just outright
lie or just downplay every
single thing that's
ever happened in our
program thus far.
Let's be honest, is that
Vermin would not have lost
if it wasn't for The Wolf
Zaddies, Clearwater wouldn't
be in there if it
wasn't for an injury,
Anthony Idle wouldn't be
where he was if it wasn't for
mind games, this
whole thing is a sham.
In fact, they should've just
taken the cup to begin with
and gave it to Ray
Rosas or Andy Brown.
- [Commentator #1] Well
as Eli Drake would've said
in the past, that's
just a fact of life,
you gotta deal the
cards you're given.
Dividing and conquering
right now is The Golden Boy
taking out the opposition
in a big way but if I'm
Clearwater I don't know if
I go on the outside here,
I don't know if I go
swimming with sharks.
- [Commentator #2] Very
very stupid is Clearwater.
Making a very very pivotal
mistake, don't turn your
back on these two, I guarantee
it's gonna spell doom
for you and there it is,
that's what I'm talking
about Kennelly.
- [Commentator #1]
Oh no no no no no
- [Commentator #2] You dummy
- [Commentator #1] The elevator
going down for Clearwater
the official was attending
to Ray Rosas, a legal
double team here,
taking out Clearwater.
This PP3 semifinal
continues next.

(light hip hop music)
- [Commentator
Keneley] Welcome back
to our Main Event
PP3 Semi-Final match,
a shot to face Anthony
Idol in the finals
to try and get the cup
and Percy's Privilege.
But the unfair advantage
the three to one odds.
How do you overcome that?
(wrestlers slam to the floor)
Almost insurmountable
it would seem.
Clearwater was rolling
in this match-up
until he was attacked
viciously on the outside
by Quest and Brown.
- [Commentator Jassick] You
want it so badly, you wanted it
so badly you got it.
You wanted it back in
the cup, you got it.
You wanted to taunt your
mentor and disrespect him
in front of
everybody, you got it.
And this is exactly
where it gets you.
Look at that. That's
exactly where it gets you.
Because people who truly
care about Ray Rosas like,
"You should've done."
I'll actually back them up.
And that's exactly what's
happened Clearwater.
(individual crowd members shout)
- More shots there to Clearwater
on the outside and you can see.
Not able to catch a breath
is Clearwater at this point.
His body turning a crimson
red, he's being attacked
by all angles.
(referee pounds floor)
Now by his one true
opponent Ray Rosas.
Rosas closing in on victory.
- Closing in on victory.
Every single second he
gets closer and closer.
What do they say?
(crowd yells in unison)
- "No more homies."
- Well they're not
friends with him anymore.
I'm sure that really
hurts his feelings.
- Yeah, well, these three
certainly have friends
in low places.
That's for certain.
- You know what, Keneley,
you keep on talking about
these two on the
outside interfering.
And friends, that's what
they do for each other.
They help each other
out in tough situations.
I'd like to think if I
was in there that you'd do
every single thing
you to help me out.
(wrestler punches opponent)
- Don't count on it.
- Just because you're a coward
doesn't mean they are, Keneley.
Some of us still have tenacity.
(individual crowd members shout)
- Fact of the matter is the
illegal advantage allowed
Rosas to enjoy the upper hand.
Oh, look at it. He is on
rubber legs right now.
After eating that big elbow.
Golden Boy, now look at this.
(crowd shouts in unison)
A rake in the eye right
in front of the official.
Blatant, blatant rule-breaking.
- A rake in the eyes.
(referee yells)
He was trying to push him back.
Clearwater was stupid enough
to walk forward into his hands.
It was obvious.
And Clearwater almost he
wants to get in trouble.
(referee yells)
It's like he's going
to a bad neighborhood
and taunting the locals.
You don't do that.
Why does he keep going
to the outside like that?
- He doesn't know
where he is right now.
He just had his eyes raked.
Quite frankly.
But now taking advantage,
capitalizing is Rosas
gonna try and wear down the
big youngster with the sleeper.
And I don't know after
that eye rake if Clearwater
even knows where he
is in terms of trying
to get to the ropes
to break the hold.
He's in big trouble right now.
(crowd yells in unison)
Crowd certainly
behind Clearwater.
Using his power. Oh!
(wrestlers fall onto floor)
Double head butt they
both go down in a heap.
- Oh boy, that now sets
everything back to zero.
Nobody has any advantage
at this point Keneley.
And the next few seconds are
going to be very, very pivotal.
(referee counts)
Whoever gets that
first move will be able
to dominate the
rest of this match.
- What a head to head
collision that was.
You can see Excedrin
headache number 99 there
for Rosas and Clearwater
in deep trouble.
Could be a turning
point in this match-up.
We'll see who can clear
the cobwebs quicker
might have the big advantage.
Right now it looks like it's
gonna be Clearwater scoring
with the strikes,
catching his second wind.
The youngster fired
up. Atomic drop.
(crowd cheers)
Oh boy, full head of steam
into that reverse neck
breakout.
- Kick out, kick out.
There we go on the way to
the finals of the PP3, no.
So close.
- You almost had it and
you blew it once again.
Very, very smart.
Took way too long
hooking that leg.
That's exactly what
happened, Keneley,
(crowd yells in unison)
is that Clearwater is listening
too much to these fans
and not to his brain.
He should've been
able to pin that man.
But he was stupid and
didn't make it on time.
- Whatever you say,
but Rosas the head butt
and now the reverse
snap breaker.
Ray Rosas in big time
jeopardy right now.
He's rocking. He's reeling.
He's in trouble. Look at this.
Thinking suplex again.
Went to the well one
too many times, perhaps.
Nice counter there
by Clearwater.
Rolling in, closing the gap.
Wow, what a beautiful take
down there by Ray Rosas.
Double leg.
- Clearwater tried to escape
but absolutely no dice.
(wrestlers bounce off floor)
Go ahead and shove
him off all you want
here he comes back
in like ants on poop.
Here comes Ray Rosas coming
in to finish the job.
Feel his need for the PP3.
- Almost a variation
of Andy Brown's
Off With His Head there.
This is gonna do it.
No sir, the
youngster finds a way
to dig down deep yet again.
- You go ahead and kick out
every single time
you want young man.
Lemme tell you it's not
going to do anything
for your career.
Ray Rosas is now thinking
of his next move.
Finishing move probably.
The absolute last pivotal
point that he needs to make
and seal his fate at this
PP3 Tournament, Keneley.
- Back and forth
seesaw match-up.
(wrestler gasps)
Really defying the odds
has been Clearwater
'cause it's really been
more of a handicap match
with those two on the outside.
They're Tag Team
champions no less.
Vicious kick to the
back of the head.
Rope assisted in Zurgury.
And again, after that Off
With His Head earlier,
now that, the head butt earlier.
Both guys gotta be absolutely
loopy at this point.
- Head injuries are
absolutely no joke, Keneley.
You can only survive so
many shots with that.
(crowd yells in unison)
And Ray Rosas knows this.
He's coming in to say,
"It's night night time
"for the Golden Nugget."
- I don't know if he's
got the presence of mind.
His signature elbow
drop in the past.
Now the spinning
toe-hold took way
too much time, Jassick.
Just to play with the crowd
here, the mental mind games.
It's gonna cost
Rosas in a big way.
Look at that momentum.
(wrestler hits floor)
The Rodney Powers slam.
(wrestler stomps foot)
He's got to measure, you
know what's coming next.
- Don't even say it,
Keneley. Don't even say it.
- (laughs excitedly)
Everything he touches is
gonna turn to gold.
He might be touching the
PP3 Cup in short order.
Midas touch.
Connects. He scores.
(referee counts)
Here's the cover.
Oh c'mon. Gimme a break.
- Yes!
It was over.
- Yes!
(crowd boos in unison)
- Oh, Ray Rosas
rolled outta that ring
with a quickness right there.
- It's gotta be a big
judgment call by the.
Rolled outta the ring.
Are you kidding me?
Oh no, what's going on here?
- We've got Golden
Boy taking flight.
Going bowling.
Hits the strike in
more ways than one.
(crowd shouts in unison)
- And all three men
are the subject of
the Golden Nugget's
fury right now.
But that's fine.
See how long he could take that.
The referee should've
disqualified him for one.
But when you go up
there and make a stupid
mistake you gotta be
weighing out your minds.
- Back inside looking for the
golden, the Midas touch again.
Low blow.
- Low blow anything.
The referee wasn't even
in the ring to see it.
- The referee is out there
with Quest and Brown.
(referee slaps hand on floor)
and they're in the first place.
Yes! (bell rings)
- [PA Announcer]
Here is your winner!
Advancing to the finals
of the PP3 Cup
Tournament Ray Rosas.
- Yes, yes!
(thumping electro music plays)
Sit down Jassick.
- I told you one more match.
All we need was one more match.
- Be a professional,
I'm begging you.
(Jassick laughs)
(individual crowd members boo)
Ray Rosas on his
way to the finals.
Strength in numbers.
The numbers game costing
Jordan Clearwater
a great battle by the
youngster who came so close
but Rosas gets the win and he
will face the Neon Phenomenon
for Percy's Privilege coming
up at the PP3 Blockbuster.
We'll see you next time.
Aw, c'mon.
- What did I tell
you, wrestling fans?
What an absolutely
action packed edition
of Championship
Wrestling presented by
West Coast Pro Wrestling
and that is going to do it
for this week, but come
on back again next week.
In our main event, we will have
the Wolf Zaddies
taking on Vermin.
Elsewhere, the best of
seven between Heather Monroe
and Lacey Ryan continues,
we will hear from the neon
phenomenon, Anthony Idol,
about the Percy Pringle
III Cup Tournament finals.
All that and so much more
coming up next week on
Championship Wrestling.
Until then, stay happy and
healthy, wash those hands,
and until next week,
thank you so very much
for watching, wrestling fans.
- [Host] The proceeding
has been a presentation
of the United Wrestling Network.
