The show was to be headlined with Jack Tomlinson’s first title defense as new Victory Pro Wrestling champion against Dan Barry.

To kick off the show, VPW announcer Sam L ’Eterna welcomed the fans and thanked them for coming out. Sam L ‘Eterna introduced the new Victory Pro Wrestling Champion, Jack Tomlinson to the VPW faithful.

Tomlinson made his way out to the ring and the crowd was firmly behind him. Tomlinson told the fans that the best part about him winning the Victory Pro Wrestling Championship was that it meant the fans won the Victory Pro Wrestling Championship as well.

Mike Anthony interrupted Jack Tomlinson and wasted no time in getting his point across. Anthony tells Tomlinson he is tired of Jack ducking him. In Anthony’s mind, he won the King of New York and is angry Dan Barry was given a Victory Pro Wrestling Championship match over him.

Dan Barry was next to make his way out to the ring. Barry says that he is a 17-time champion, and one more would be coming his way. Anthony attacks Tomlinson from behind with a chair taking out his leg. Anthony trapped Tomlinson’s leg in a chair and unloaded on it with a chair of his own.

Dan Barry would come down to make the save. VPW referees and the medical team came to assist, and senior official Steven Dumeng would then tell Barry that Tomlinson can’t compete tonight. This made Dan Barry angry, but he had a new goal in mind. Barry challenged Mike Anthony to a no disqualification match in the main event, which was made official.

  • Referee Steven Dumeng admonished Collins and directed him to the locker room area before the match started. Once the bell rang, Somerset challenged Cardigan to take his glasses off so it would be a fair fight between Cardigan and Azure, except he.. just had.. Lasik surgery?
  • Once the hijinks were over, the match went back and forth. Kip and Cardigan had some fun early on until the champions finally took over.
  • The Coffee Lovers started to come back but the experience of the champions lead the Even Stevens to victory.

WINNERS: THE EVEN STEVENS

THE DOCTOR’S OFFICE W/ DR COOL JAY KLANG
Dr Cool’s guests were Silk E Smooth and The Giant Andre, who came to the ring wearing “We Broke Alvin’s Heart” t-shirts. Smooth then explained that while the Even Stevens attacked Andre, it was Smooth that took care of Andre. Meanwhile, Alvin Alvarez was too busy trying to be a hero instead of checking on his best friend.

Alvin Alvarez then came to the ring to call BS on the excuse, even then saying that since Alvin and Andre were in the ring together, they may as well go at it right there and then.

Silk and Andre then left, and Dr Cool taunted Alvin. Alvin beat him down before heading to the back.

KING OF NEW YORK QUALIFYING MATCH
BROTHER GREATNESS vs ….

Before the match, VPW Commissioner Kevin Fulton, along with the Assistant to the VPW Commissioner James Sullivan, came to the ring to address the issue at hand, and that was Brother Greatness’ original opponent Bryce Donovan suffering an injury that required surgery, therefore he was unable to be cleared to compete.

In his place, Commissioner Fulton found a suitable replacement, a former King of New York finalist, a former contender to the VPW Tag Team Championship, and a former contender to the VPW New York State Championship……

…the Assistant to the VPW Commissioner James Sullivan.

  • Still dressed in his button down shirt, Sullivan was cheered on by Commissioner Fulton. Sullivan went for a merry-go-round suplex but Greatness was able to counter. After a top rope bulldog, Brother Greatness advances into the King of New York tournament

WINNER: BROTHER GREATNESS

With the win, Brother Greatness joins Bobby Orlando, Mike Anthony and Phillip Cardigan in next month’s King of New York tournament to be held at the anniversary show.

NEW YORK STATE CHAMPIONSHIP
KARLO VICE vs NEW YORK STATE CHAMPION ERIC JAMES

Before the match started, Eric gave a shout out to Bryce Donovan to get well soon. As referee Nick Shin was about to get the match under way, Jarrett Diaz – who made appearances on AEW Dark – came to the ring. He noted that if he wanted to make an impact in VPW that getting a match with Eric James would be the way to do so. The champion asked the fans, and the fans agreed, so now it’s a triple threat.

KARLO VICE vs JARRETT DIAZ vs ERIC JAMES

  • The match started off hot with Eric James controlling the action and showing why he has been the longest reigning New York State Champion.
  • Karlo Vice took control and started a beatdown on the champion after James attempted a Code Red on Diaz. Vice and Diaz then started to work on James, but had a hard time working together.
  • Despite not having a lot of singles success, Vice was able to show that he could compete at the championship level, but the continued interaction with Diaz continued to be his downfall.
  • Diaz proved to be a tough competitor himself, proving he could also hang at the championship level, but the experience of the New York State Champion gave him the victory.

WINNER AND STILL NEW YORK STATE CHAMPION: ERIC JAMES

After the match, Karlo Vice attacked Eric James. Out to make the save was Dezmond Cole. He called for the microphone and gave it up to Eric James. Cole then talked about how how he felt after his return from injury that he wants a shot – Dezmond Cole against Eric James at the VPW Blood Sweat and 16 year anniversary show.

SINGLES MATCH
MIKE ANTHONY vs PAT FITZPATRICK

  • In a match that started brewing earlier in the night during the lumberjack match, Mike Anthony and Pat Fitzpatrick took to the ring to settle the score.
  • The back and forth action between the two spilled to the outside, where Fitzpatrick had the fans chop Mike Anthony.
  • The advantage Fitzpatrick had did not last long as Mike Anthony was able to gain control.
  • As Fitzpatrick started to regain momentum, Mike Anthony distracted the referee and hit his opponent with a low blow before connecting with a crazy DDT for the win.

WINNER: MIKE ANTHONY

The next contest started out with Kaide Lothbrok to the ring with Dante Drago and Beau Sullivan. Kaide was talking about Jack Tomlinson being a top contender, no.. a champion. But Kaide then warned Jack that one day, with an injury, the fans would betray Jack. Kaide once again offered his hand.

Instead they gave Jack a three-on-one beatdown until VSK made the save, returning the favor from the month before. VSK then called out Kaide and Dante for a tag team match.

TAG TEAM MATCH
KAIDE LOTHBROK/DANTE DRAGO (w/ Beau Sullivan) vs VSK/JACK TOMLINSON

  • This was a brutal match with a lot of animosity between both teams. VSK and Jack worked well as a tag team, but Dante showed an eagerness to impress Kaide.
  • One of the best matches of the night was almost ruined with Beau Sullivan entering the ring to knock Jack out with a set of brass knuckles. As Kaide held him up and Dante distracted the official, Beau swung.. Jack ducked.. and Kaide was knocked out.
  • Dante was taken out, then Kaide met a VSK superkick and Jack Tomlinson Spider-man Stomp before the match ended.

WINNERS: VSK AND JACK TOMLINSON

After the match, Kaide and Dante beat down Beau Sullivan and left him in the ring as a thank you for costing the Wolves the match.

VPW WOMEN’S CHAMPIONSHIP
CLARA CARRERRAS vs VPW WOMEN’S CHAMPION VALENTINA VASQUEZ

  • The scrappy challenger Clara Carreras stepped up to the plate to challenge new champion Valentina Vasquez.
  • Valentina threw around the challenger, but Clara was able to return the favor.
  • The challenger connected with what looked like a 3-count after a Code Red. Vasquez then shoved Carreras into the corner, rolled her up for the pin, and put her foot on the ropes for leverage.

WINNER AND STILL VPW WOMEN’S CHAMPION: VALENTINA VASQUEZ

THE MAIN EVENT
VICTORY PRO WRESTLING CHAMPIONSHIP
MISTER TIBBS vs VPW CHAMPION JOHNNY COLLINS

  • Johnny Collins playing mind games came to the ring dressed as Coach Mammone. Mister Tibbs wasn’t having any of that.
  • The challenger was on the defense early on as Mister Tibbs took control, but Collins continued to fight back.
  • As Collins looked to be lost, Stephen Azure jumped on the apron to distract the official. Steve Somerset grabbed the championship and ran to knock Mister Tibbs out, but instead knocked out referee Steven Dumeng.
  • With no official in the ring, Pretty Likeable triple teamed Mister Tibbs, but the former 3-time champion was able to fight back. Despite the numbers against him, Tibbs kept coming out on top.
  • Commissioner Fulton called for another referee to come out. As he was counting the pinfall, both Even Stevens pulled referee John Ryan outside the ring and entered to attack Tibbs. The official then disqualified Collins.

WINNER BY DISQUALIFICATION: MISTER TIBBS

Commissioner Fulton then charged the ring and announced that next month it would be Mister Tibbs and Johnny Collins, with no disqualification, at the anniversary show.

Dezmond Cole is tired of Percy Ryan running from him; they will meet in a Lumberjack match at Before the Storm Feb 19 https://www.victoryprowrestling.com/dezmond-cole-is-tired-of-percy-ryan-running-from-him-they-will-meet-in-a-lumberjack-match-at-before-the-storm-feb-19/ Fri, 28 Jan 2022 14:04:00 +0000 https://victoryprowrestling.com.thedeadend.net/2012/?p=8808 Dezmond Cole and Percy Ryan used to hit wrestling moves on each other on the way to classed in high school. They decided to join a wrestling school together. They trained together at the gym.

They both joined VPW in early 2019. Percy at the time was “Percival the Third,” while Dezmond was “Notorious.” But behind the curtain, they were inseparable.

During the pandemic, the two continued to work together, teaming with each other in other companies outside of New York State. They built each other up and continued to rise.

But when VPW returned in 2021, Percy had a new attitude. He did not care. Not for the fans, not for the company, and certainly not for his tag team partner, one Dezmond Cole. He disagreed with Dezmond’s partying and fun ways, walking away from him mid-match against Shook Crew, leaving Dezmond to take the loss for the team.

They had a match against each other in VPW, and Percy was able to come up on top. This did not bring Dezmond down, as he was ready for a rematch against his former best friend, but an injury kept that from happening.

Dezmond hurt his knee in training, possibly tearing his ACL. He potentially was out for almost a year. Things were not looking good for his future, and Dezmond was not right in his mind. He needed to stay home, to rehab, and to focus on himself.

Meanwhile, Percy aligned himself with Kaide Lothbrok’s Wolves of Odin so he could steal a win against Adam Cain. Percy has since distanced himself from the Wolves, which may or may not be a good thing. He’s trashed Dezmond cole’s character, and at December’s Devastation during the “Dr Cool Show“, Percy directed a cameraman to get in the ring and to send a message to Dezmond.

Dezmond Cole vs Percy Ryan at Before the Storm
There is no running for Percy Ryan when he meets Dezmond Cole in a lumberjack match

What he did not know was the cameraman he was ordering around like a stooge was, in fact, Dezmond Cole. Dr Cool Jay Klang noticed something, called Percy over, who was distracted long enough for Dezmond to connect him with a spear. After some fisticuffs, Percy escaped the ring. Dezmond challenged Percy to a match at Before the Storm, and VPW officials signed this match as a Lumberjack match to ensure both competitors keep the action in the ring.
