Here's the Ohio Valley Wrestling Television taping report for March 14th,
2012. Dean Hill and Gilbert Corsey were the TV announcers tonight. Ron Hed and
Brittany DeVore were the ring announcers. The attendance was around 130.
"Smooth" Johnny Spade defends his recently won OVW heavyweight title against
Jamin Olivencia at the OVW House show at Expo 5 in Louisville this Sunday, March
18th. Also included in the 5 dollar admission price to that event will be a
showing of the TNA Victory Road PPV following the live OVW wrestling.
Speaking of Johnny Spade, he wrestled against Jessie Godderz at three TNA house
shows in Kentucky last weekend in matches that received mixed reviews.
I
will not be doing these reports for the next three weeks due to various reasons,
including me going to Wrestlemania in Maimi, but fear not marks and markettes,
for the next three weeks the OVW TV reports will be in the more than capable
hands of one Larry Goodman. Thanks for covering for me Larry, and I look forward
to reading your reports. Will give a different take on things for a few weeks.
The archive for the March 11th OVW Overview podcast with special guest
Mike Sempervive is available. Mike Mondo was also a surprise call in on this fun
show. Check it out at this link.

1. Michael
Hayes beat Tony Gunn
Dark match. It was weird seeing Hayes wrestling
someone not named Mohamad Ali Vaez. Hayes beat Gunn by catching Gunn with a code
breaker as he came off the top rope. So-so match at best.
2. Rocco
Bellagio, James "Moose" Thomas & Joe Coleman w/Prince Bolin & Mickey beat Daniel
Pruce, Elvis Pridemore & Chase King
Also a dark match. Speaking of dark,
the usually, and naturally, pale Rocco Bellagio is working hard on a tan. Lots
of "Bald headed geek" chants at the recently head shaved Prince Bolin, who was
wearing a black stocking hat. I had to step out to make a phone call during this
match, but my crack, and highly reliable, source told me when I returned that
Joe Coleman beat Elvis to win it for BS 2.0.
3. Ted McNaler beat Ricky
Chevy
Another dark match. Chevy came out wearing a boa made out of
fake money, and cut an obnoxious heel promo, challenging anyone in the back to
come out and face him. Ted McNaler came out and beat Chevy in about 3 seconds
with a spear.
4. Alex Silva beat Lennox Norris
Yet another dark
match. Silva is wearing tennis shoe/wrestling boots these days, and his current
hair don't is a horribly half assed, and sloppy too boot, attempt at a Mohawk.
Silva won with his "Silva Surfer" running knee.
The TV taping opened
with Josette Bynum and The Family coming out. It was notable that Mohamad Ali
Vaez was not out with The Family here. Bynum called out the Australian tag team
of Mikey Nicholls and Shane Haste, leading to...
5. Rudy Switchblade &
Jessie Godderz w/Josette Bynum & Rob Terry beat Mikey Nicholls & Shane Haste to
retain the OVW Southern Tag Team Titles
This was the first match of the
TV taping. I believe the official OVW tag champs are Jessie Godderz & Rob Terry,
but they're doing a version of the old "Freebirds rules" here, calling it
"Family rules", saying anyone in The Family can defend those titles. Rob Terry
ran in and attacked Haste and Nicholls for a DQ. Josette Bynum admonished
referee Chris Sharpe for disqualifying her team. Bynum has been trying to get
Sharpe to turn heel ref, and favor her side, by teasing her womanly wilds. The
director of Wrestling operations for OVW, Trailer Park Trash, came out and
restarted the match, and said it would be a title match, because if Josette
Bynum makes a match, he gets to make the stips. I thought for sure this meant a
title change coming, and it looked to be when Nicholls & Haste hit their "Double
Tap" finisher on Rudy Switchblade, but Jessie Godderz made the save. The Family
then suddenly kicked it into high gear, and won the match when Godderz gave
Haste a jumping Stunner, and Switchblade then pinned Haste with a Frogsplash.
This finish totally shocked me. I take it to mean Haste and Nicholls won't be
back here on a regular basis, and I hope I'm wrong about that.
Josette
Bynum admonished referee Chris Sharpe more after the match, but soon the top
babyfaces of OVW all hit the ring, Johnny Spade, Jamin Olivencia, Shiloh Jonze,
& Los Locos. Bynum said tonight Shiloh Jonze would face Mohamad Ali Vaez, Los
Locos would face X2C, and in a teaser for their OVW title match this Sunday,
though Bynum said the wrong date, Spade would face Olivencia tonight. Bynum told
Sharpe she was going to give him a third chance, and warned him not to mess it
up.
Brandon Espinosa was talking to Tony Gunn backstage when Paredyse
came very happily skipping by, wearing the dress he was forced to wear when
Espinosa beat him in a "Dress on a pole" match. Espinosa was greatly bothered
that Paredyse was now enjoying wearing the dress.
Also backstage Adam
Revolver began a fake phone conversation with "Mom" when he saw ring announcer
Brittany DeVore, who is the girlfriend of Ted McNaler, coming towards him.
DeVore was so impressed with what Revolver said to "Mom" on the phone, about
patching up things with his estranged "Brother" McNaler, that she gave Revolver
a hug. Uh oh.....
6. Dylan Bostic beat Randy Royal
This match
was set up last week. Royal was totally in control here, but the red headed OVW
Womens champion, Taeler Hendrix, came to ringside, all decked out in green for
St. Patricks day, since this show will air in Louisville on St. Patricks day.
Hendrix and Bostic have a budding romance beginning. Bostic rolled up the over
confident Royal for the win, and left with the girl.
7. Shiloh Jonze
beat Mohamad Ali Vaez
Vaez, in earnest training for a fitness
competition in late April, has cut noticeable weight. If he gets down to 165
pounds like he talked about on the most recent OVW Overview podcast, he really
will look exactly like Truth Martini. The Family came out with Vaez here, but
Trailer Park Trash came out and said the stip for this match would be The Family
is banned from ringside. The match was fast paced, and Vaez was very aggressive
in going for a lot of covers on Jonze, but Jonze came back and hit his top rope
flying forearm to win it clean. Vaez remains winless on TV thus far in 2012 in
OVW.
Brittany DeVore conducted a backstage interview with Alex Silva.
Silva said he's been OVW TV champion twice in the past, but this time he's back
in OVW with higher expectations.
After the interview, Ted McNaler
angrily confronted DeVore about talking to Adam Revolver, and told her to stop
it. DeVore said she wouldn't be talked to that way, and angrily walked away from
her boyfriend, for now anyhow, McNaler. Uh oh...
8. Chris Silvio w/Mo
Green & Mary Jane beat Jose Del Barrio to retain the OVW TV Title
Mo
Green also mentioned St. Patricks day, calling it St. Silvio day. Incredibly
size difference between Silvio and Del Barrio here. Del Barrio is a huge rookie,
but his body could be a lot better. While Mary Jane the hula hoop girl
distracted the ref, Mo Green ran in and slapped Del Barrio on the back with his
flip flops, almost Little Beaver style. Green then kicked Del Barrio low, which
allowed Silvio to hit Del Barrio with his "Rocket Punch" and win it. Green was
hilarious during the finish here. No doubt Silvio is a fighting champion, this
past Saturday March 10th, Silvio retained the OVW TV title by defeating Shiloh
Jonze in a 38 minute long no time limit match at a house show in Clarksville,
Indiana.
X2C(Sean Casey & Raphael Constantine) were backstage with
two ladies. Randy Terrez was there with them, seriously reading cards of the
past, present, and future for Casey & Constantine. Casey and Constantine acted
totally goofy, and were grossly misinterpreting every dark and gloomy thing
Terrez described about them, which annoyed Terrez. Casey and Constantine are
just blissfully ignorant I guess.
Paredyse happened by again, still
happily wearing a dress. Brandon Espinosa was in a corner watching this and
fuming about it.
9. Los Locos(Anarquia & Raul Lamotta) beat X2C(Sean
Casey & Raphael Constantine)w/Three ladies in a Barrio Brawl
Trailer
Park Trash came out before this match and said it would be a "Barrio Brawl,
which meant Texas Tornado rules. The crowd was dead here. After much confusion
with the three ladies up on the apron, Los Locos decided to just fall down and
play dead in the ring. The blissfully ignorant X2C fell for it, and were both
small packaged with stereo pins to end it. This sucked, and was basically the
same finish as the Dylan Bostic vs Randy Royal match on this episode.
Prince Bolin was trying to rally all of his Bolin Services 2.0 troops backstage,
saying all of OVW was against them. Bolin again abused the simple personal
assistant Mickey by slapping the water bottles out of his hand. BS 2.0 member
James "Moose" Thomas again felt sorry for Mickey, and helped him pick the
bottles up. Hmmmm....
10. "Smooth Johnny Spade vs Jamin Olivecnia went
to a no contest I guess
TV main event time. After a few minutes of
action in front of a quiet crowd, Josette Bynum and The Family came to ringside.
Mohamad Ali Vaez was again not out with The Family here. Bynum ordered referee
Chris Sharpe to turn around so the Family could come in a wreck havoc behind his
back, but like last week after teasing he would obey Bynum, Sharpe again said an
emphatic "No" to her instead. Rob Terry ran in a clotheslined both Spade and
Olivencia, and then gave them both a very impressive back suplex at the same
time. Damn. Bynum then said Referee Sharpe had blown his last chance, and would
have to pay. It appeared Rob Terry was going to beat up Chris Sharpe, but
Trailer Park Trash came out yet again. TPT said he wasn't afraid or Rob Terry,
so Terry decked TPT, who was out colder than a wedge from just one blow. Terry
must pack quite a wallop. TPT was down in the ring for several minutes, as were
Spade and Olivencia, as the ring filled up with refs and wrestlers to check on
the fallen. Even OVW owner Danny Davis came out to attend to TPT. The TV taping
appeared to still be going on as TPT laid motionless in the ring for several
minutes. When everyone finally slowly got up, Spade and Olivencia met nose to
nose, but then shook hands for their title match against each other this Sunday.
There were a lot of matches on this taping, but it was just a fair show.
Interesting cliff hanger at the end with Trailer Park Trash being laid out. I
will be very happy if that signified the beginning of the end of the inane
dueling GM's dreck OVW has fallen in love with lately. Send any feedback to
