“No Excuses 3” Saturday August 4,
2007 from the Court Time Sports Center in Elizabeth, Pa would be a night nearly
one year in the making for Sterling James Keenan. Sterling had battled through
every top contender, and even through being fired for a brief time, to finally
earn the right to challenge 4-time and current IWC Heavyweight Champion Dennis
Gregory. In the hours leading up to the encounter, SJK made several violent but
very calculated attempts at eliminating all who could potentially screw SJK out
of the gold. From John McChesney to Brent Albright to Sebastian Dark, all
received knock-out shots from SJK and were promptly ejected from the building.
Promoter Norm Connors took great delight in eliminating crooked referee Steven
Colter himself, leaving just Sterling and Gregory to settle their differences,
with impartial referee CJ Sensation calling the action. Or so we had thought. In
a shocking act of betrayal, CJ assaulted Sterling with CJ’s Kidnapper maneuver,
screwing Sterling, and protecting the title reign of Dennis Gregory. As Gregory
and his henchmen celebrated their success, CJ Sensation counted the money for
all to see, as Dennis Gregory successfully bought off another longtime Norm
Connors loyalist.
Tragedy was not just limited to the IWC Title picture, but the tag titles as
well. Mickey & Marshall Gambino were successful in defending the IWC Tag Team
Titles against Babyface Fire, Shiima Xion & Jason Gory. Action continued after
the bell and into The Gambinos’ champagne celebration, which soon turned
disastrous. Apparently with victory not enough to please the sinister Italians,
The Gambino clan viciously struck Shiima in the facial area with a heavy glass
champagne bottle, shattering the bottle into hundreds of pieces, and causing
Shiima to require medical attention shortly thereafter. The growing Gambino
Family: Mickey, Marshall, Jimmy DeMarco, Vendetta, Viki Gambino, and chauffeurs
Flexor & Ferrari all celebrated their distasteful actions.
One man who seemed content with facing his consequences head-on was HENTAI.
Rumors of HENTAI’s growing unrest with the new direction of the Unholy Alliance,
being shifted more toward Dennis Gregory’s ego than toward the cause and beliefs
HENTAI and original leader Shirley Doe had fought so long and hard for, finally
came to a head when HENTAI confronted Gregory about the situation, claiming
there is no Unholy Alliance without Doe or HENTAI. Gregory’s response was quick
and merciless, Gregory stated that both HENTAI and the Unholy Alliance name were
completely dead to him, and led the rest of his charges on an all-out assault on
HENTAI. Ever the competitor, HENTAI refused to back down, accepting an open
challenge from “The Shooter” Brent Albright later that night. HENTAI fought his
heart out, but with an already severely injured arm thanks to that attack
earlier in the night, it was an easy target for Albright and his Crowbar
submission hold.
The one-time Unholy Alliance was successful across the board, as “Fabulous” John
McChesney was able to defeat his greatest rival of 2006 and someone who had his
number for several months, the very bizarre Delirious accompanied by personal
translator Daizee Haze.
“The Baddest Man in IWC” Ray Rowe, still with taped ribs from his unforgettable
clash with Samoa Joe, went toe-to-toe with perhaps an equally physical and
intense athlete in former IWC Champion Ricky Reyes. Ray Rowe again showed
superhuman like intensity and pain threshold with match Reyes strike-for-strike,
overpowering the Rottweiler with three vicious powerbombs en route to a win and
major step in Ray Rowe’s singles career.
The hottest tag team rivalry in IWC in 2004 was re-lived as “M-Dogg 20” Matt
Cross & Josh Prohibition, teaming for the first time in IWC in over one year,
defeated the timeless veterans of the “Original Wild-Eyed Southern Boy” Tracy
Smothers and “High-Flying” Chris Hamrick, teaming for the first time in and IWC
ring together in nearly two years. Both teams were in rare form and are another
indication of just how red hot IWC’s tag division is becoming.
“Balls Hot” Troy Lords got himself back on the post-Super Indy winning path,
evening his series with “Da Good Guy” Azrieal. Lords and Azrieal are 1-1 with
major Super Indy Title ranking implications at stake when it comes to these two
men. One can only believe a rubber match is right around the corner.
Sexual Harassment, Eric Xtasy & Justin Idol, have had their mental, emotional
and lifestyle differences on display for the past year, but with Justin Idol
finally laying down the law, saying he’s sick of the shenanigans, Sexual
Harassment seems to finally have that serious edge it had lacked through most of
its most recent incarnation. Despite the last-minute addition of the social
deviant “DeeeLicious” Jimmy DeMarco and his Hollywood Balds teammate Vendetta,
Eric & Justin still prevailed in this impromptu three-way dance which also
featured former tag team champions 19-year-old prodigy Johnny Gargano and the
“Suburban Terrorist” Michael “The Bomber” Façade.
Bubba the Bulldog, with his open challenge to the man he helped train for
professional wrestling Kurt Angle on the table, stepped into battle against “The
Big Daddy of Destruction” J-Rocc. It was Bubba’s mouth and ego that once again
got him into trouble. Bubba got into the face of Ray Rowe at ringside, took his
eye off of J-Rocc, and suffered the One Hitter Quitter death valley driver for
the win. |
