VPW NEW YORK STATE CHAMPIONSHIP
MISTER TIBBS vs CHAMPION ERIC JAMES

WINNER: ERIC JAMES

VICTORY PRO WRESTLING TAG TEAM CHAMPIONSHIPS
THE EVEN STEVENS (Steve Somerset & Stephen Azure)
vs CHAMPIONS THE ABSOLUTE BRAND (Alvin Alvarez & Giant Andre w/ Silk E Smooth)

The Even Stevens redeemed themselves after a loss at Homecoming in July, giving the champions something to work with, but outside interference and a miscue from Silk E Smooth, the Vest in the World became the Best in VPW.

WINNER: AND NEW VPW TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS.. THE EVEN STEVENS

After the match… Giant Andre called out Silk E Smooth for once again causing them a win, and demanded Alvin Alvarez to make a decision – Silk E Smooth or Giant Andre. After some consideration, Alvarez fired Silk E Smooth and celebrated with Andre as they now focus on regaining the tag team championships… without Smooth.

TAG TEAM MATCH
THE WOLVES OF ODIN
vs JACK TOMLINSON & BROTHER GREATNESS

Before the match, Kaide announced that Beau Sullivan was out collecting dues from lowlifes and Percy Ryan was hurt so now he was going to bring in a man Kaide felt better represented his vision… Dante Drago

The match itself featured the undersized Brother Greatness stepping up to Kaide and Dante, but the star of the match was Jack Tomlinson as he was able to lead his team to victory.

WINNERS: JACK TOMLINSON AND BROTHER GREATNESS

After the match… Kaide applauded Jack for his efforts, leaving the Vestler a little confused.

WOMEN’S SHOWCASE
THE SPIRITUAL SUBMITTER INDIGO vs LA CHICA CLARA CARRERAS

Indigo and Carreras, both making their VPW debut, sparked some life in the women’s division with a match that could be the foundation of a classic feud. In tribute to the late Eddie Guererro, Carreras finished off Indigo with a frog splash.

WINNER: CLARA CARRERAS

THE MAIN EVENT – VICTORY PRO WRESTLING CHAMPIONSHIP
JOHNNY “PRETTY BOY” COLLINS
vs VICTORY PRO WRESTLING CHAMPION COACH MAMMONE

After being paraded around the ring on the shoulders of the Even Stevens, Collins refused to let the ring announcer introduce him. The challenger went to the crowd to find a fan to introduce Collins.

Once the match started, it was all Coach Mammone. The champion took it to Collins but the challenger was able to keep up with him. Collins was frustrated by his opponent’s never die attitude and was caught off guard when Mammone locked him in a Sharpshooter.

The bell rang, and Mammone unlocked the hold, but Collins did not submit. Senior official Steven Dumeng noticed Stephen Azure at the timekeeper’s table and admonished him for his actions as Steve Somerset snuck into the ring and knocked out the champion with a chain.

A groggy Collins slowly crawled on top of Mammone while Dumeng rushed back to the ring to make the count.

WINNER AND NEW VICTORY PRO WRESTLING CHAMPION: Johnny “Pretty Boy” Collins

After the match… Mammone while not surprised was disappointed. He wanted a championship rematch at December’s “Devastation” show, to which Collins said… no.

The former champion said he’d do anything. He’d put his career on the line if he had to so he could get one more shot at the title. Collins said that would be the only way he’d get a title shot, and Mammone agreed. VPW owner John E Radioo asked Coach if he understood what that meant before making it official.

Now the stage is set, but at what cost? Will Coach Mammone regain the championship or will Johnny Collins eliminate the former champion forever?

What will happen when Victory Pro Wrestling returns to St James December 18th for Devastation?

The show opened up with VPW Commissioner Kevin Fulton, accompanied by the Assistant to the VPW Commissioner James M Sullivan, announcing that Mister Tibbs would not be able to perform as he suffered an injury during training.

Jack Tomlinson came out to find out what that meant for him, as he wants to prove he is worthy of a championship. Fulton told him he had the night off. When asked why, the Commish told Jack that he was more concerned about tweets, reposts, twitter, Instagram, and his Jack Pack that in the last three years in VPW, he’s done nothing.

A puzzled Tomlinson was then confronted by Kaide Lothbrok, accompanied by Beau Sullivan. He invited Jack to join him, that he was building something special, and wanted Jack to be a part of his family.

Tomlinson looked to the crowd, who Lothbrok called mindless cattle, and then announced that he has his own family, the Jack Pack, and he would not be letting them down before politely declining. Lothbrok dropped a warning before heading to the back.

THE EVEN STEVENS vs SHOOK CREW

Before the match started, the Assistant to the VPW Commissioner James M Sullivan came to the ring and decided to spice things up a bit after seeing the Even Stevens posting online how they were facing Shook Crew again. Sullivan then added the Coffee Lovers – Francis Kip Stevens and Phillip Cardigan – into this match, making it a triple threat match.

THE EVEN STEVENS vs SHOOK CREW vs THE COFFEE LOVERS

• The match broke down right away, with all three teams battling for supremacy to start things off as Shook Crew and the Coffee Lovers teamed up against the Even Stevens.
• Eventually, the underhanded tactics of the Even Stevens helped them turn the tails and gain control.
• Phillip Cardigan took a sip of coffee while he was down, giving him a boost of energy and giving him and his team a chance to get back into it. This wasn’t enough though as the Stevens brothers were able to steal the win.
• WINNERS: THE EVEN STEVENS

VPW WOMEN’S CHAMPIONSHIP
KAREN BAM BAM w/ Silk E Smooth
vs MARIE VALDOMINA
vs ALL NATURAL ASHLEY
vs THE RED RIGHT HAND MEGAN MASON

• The match started off with all four women going after each other in a fatal four way. With Megan and Ashley outside the ring, it left the champion and Marie ValDomina in the ring slugging it out.
• Ashley and Megan went back and forth before Ashley was knocked out of the ring. Megan focused on Karen, who quickly dodged her and escaped the ring. After being chased, Karen turned the tables and left her outside the ring.
• With Megan out of the way, Karen and Marie started to double team Ashley until a miscue from Marie caused their impromptu alliance to end. Megan then jumped into action and started to go after everyone.
• Megan was about to knock out Karen with her facebreaker finisher before being distracted by Karen’s manager. This left the champion in the ring with Marie, who she ended up locking in a camel clutch for the win.
• WINNER: AND STILL VPW WOMEN’S CHAMPION KAREN BAM BAM

THE LADY KILLER PERCY RYAN vs ADAM CAIN

• As Adam Cain was acknowledging the fans before the match, Percy Ryan ran onto the ropes and connected with a springboard kick, sending Cain tumbling outside the ring.
• Ryan showed a lot of dominance early on, but he hade one mistake that cost him the match as Cain rolled him up for a quick win.
• WINNER: ADAM CAIN

After the match, Kaide Lothbrok and his family came to ringside and offered the same arrangement to Percy Ryan that he did earlier in the night to Jack Tomlinson. Unlike the Vestler though, Ryan shook the hand of Kaide. Kaide, Beau Sullivan, and Percy circled the ring, stalking Adam Cain, before Jack Tomlinson stormed the ring to stand by Cain.

The Assistant to the VPW Commissioner James M Sullivan came out again, impressed by what he just saw, and decided to make a tag team match between the Wolves of Asgard and the team of Adam Cain and Jack Tomlinson.

KAIDE LOTHBROK & BEAU SULLIVAN
vs ADAM CAIN & JACK TOMLINSON

• Kaide and Beau worked on Adam Cain early to establish dominance.
• Finally, Cain tagged in his fresh partner Tomlinson who was able to stay ahead of his opponents with his power and speed.
• Cain tagged himself in, and while Tomlinson battled Kaide outside the ring, inside it was Beau that picked up the win.
• WINNER: KAIDE LOTHBROK AND BEAU SULLIVAN

PLATINUM MAX CASTER vs VSK

• The match started off simple enough; two experienced performers trying to set the pace. Lots of taunting from Max Caster, returned by VSK, after a couple of lock ups. The match went back and forth early on with neither wrestler gaining any control, answering each other move for move.
• The match spilled outside with VSK taking a dive, and the former VPW Champion gaining momentum, including a sliding backdrop, until Max was able to see a mistake and capitalize.
• Caster’s sheer power came into play, and along with his wrestling ability almost picked up the win after a Tower of London cutter from the corner. Caster then taunted the fans with a call back from VSK’s playbook, an attempted super kick. VSK countered with a Spanish fly.
• After coming back, VSK was caught off guard. With the referee distracted, Caster grabbed his chain, then knocked VSK out, but VSK kicked out.
• VSK went for his dudebuster finisher, but Caster wiggled out of it. He then shoved VSK into the corner, where he almost knocked Referee Steven Dumeng out. VSK turned around, ate a super kick from Caster. Platinum Max then went to the top for a flying elbow drop for the win.
• WINNER: PLATINUM MAX CASTER

NEW YORK STATE CHAMPIONSHIP
FALLS COUNT ANYWHERE MATCH
CHAMPION ERIC JAMES VS RYAN GALEONE

While Eric James was the recognized champion, Galeone had stolen the title belt earlier in the year. As the challenger intently locked on the entrance, champion James stormed the ring from the other side wielding a bat.

• The match was brutal from the start with James pulling rigging rope from under the ring, using it as a weapon to whip the challenger. Eventually, Galeone would use the rope as a weapon himself, using it to choke out James, hanging him from over the ring ropes.
• The action did not stay in the ring long, as both competitors fought outside the ring. The action spilled to the production table, where Galeone launched James like a lawn dart. James came back, using a garbage pail to blind Galeone before using a chair to beat the garbage pail – and Galeone.
• The two battled into the back and into the outside bleachers where the injured Dezmond Cole was watching. Galeone launched James into the protective glass, then hit a power move onto the bleachers, before James came back and used one of Cole’s crutches against Galeone.
• The action returned back to the ring, fighting their way through the crowd. A few chairs were introduced along with a wooden door. Galeone remained dominant, but as he went to finish James, the champion slipped from Galeone’s grasps and drove him threw the prone door before covering the challenger.
• WINNER: AND STILL VPW NEW YORK STATE CHAMPION ERIC JAMES

VPW TAG TEAM CHAMPIONSHIP
CHAMPIONS THE ABSOLUTE BRAND w/ Silk E Smooth vs INSANE ROCKERZ

• Before the match started, Karlo Vice told Alvin Alvarez they didn’t want to embarrass the Absolute Brand. He laid out the plan – the bell would ring, Alvin would lay down, Karlo would cover Alvin, and there would be new champions. The bell rang, and that’s what happened, except Alvarez kicked out at 2.
• The tag team champions started off strong with power and strength. Andre was tagged in and proceeded to brutalize Karlo. Things did not change when Mike Anthony was tagged in, as he was also in trouble. But with Karlo on the outside, he distracted Andre causing problems inside with Alvarez trying to tag him in with the empty corner.
• The Rockerz then double teamed Alvin, taking turns on his leg to wear him down before Andre was finally tagged in.
• Silk E Smooth saw an opportunity to get involved. He gave Alvin one of the tag team titles. Andre saw this and tried to take the belt away, causing a bit of confusion. Andre and Alvin started yelling at each other, Andre was distracted by Silk, and Alvin used it as a weapon.
• WINNERS VIA DISQUALIFICATION: THE INSANE ROCKERZ

Things got heated after the match between Alvin and Andre after the match regarding Silk’s involvement. Alvin tried to reason with Andre, saying that it’s a matter of winning and keeping the titles at all costs. For the second night in a row, Andre grabbed his title and left without his partner and manager.

VICTORY PRO WRESTLING CHAMPIONSHIP
CHAMPION COACH MAMMONE vs JOHNNY “PRETTY BOY” COLLINS

As ring announcer Rob Express was going to introduce the challenger, Collins demanded that Mammone be introduced first to try to get into the mind of the current VPW Champion.

• The match started off pretty hot for Coach Mammone, with the challenger on the defense. After a flurry of offense from the champion, Collins made it to the outside to counsel with the Even Stevens. Mammone then jumped from the top rope to neutralize all three for the time being.
• With Mammone in control, Steve Somerset grabbed a microphone and distracted the champion. Collins took over with a spear to turn the momentum into his favor. From there he dissected Mammone but was unable to pick up the win.
• Mammone was ready for his big splash sequence but as he ran around the ring, he was tripped by Stephen Azure. This brought the momentum back to Collins. Collins went into coach’s jacket to grab his whistle, but took too long to taunt the fans, giving Mammone a chance to regroup.
• The action went back and forth between Mammone and Collins. The champion connected with a full nelson bomb and was ready for the win but Somerset put the leg of Collins on the rope for the break. Meanwhile, with the referee distracted, Azure gave Collins a chain which he used to knock out Mammone.
• WINNER: AND NEW VICTORY PRO WRESTLI…

As Johnny Collins was declared the winner, Referee Steven Dumeng noted that Collins still had the chain in his hand from when he knocked Mammone out and immediately reversed his decision.

VPW Commissioner Kevin Fulton came out next to announce that this match would resume… next month at Disorderly Conduct.

What will happen when Victory Pro Wrestling returns to action on November 13th?
