Wrestling Open
2/12/26 Worcester, MA
Spotlight Match: Eye Black Jack beats Allin Bayno with an Impaler.
Match 1: Christian Darling & Tyler Jordan vs Wrench & Resolve (Jake Gray & Erik Chacha)
Jordan and Darling are a really good tandem of just power and ruthlessness. Wrench & Resolve are a great team to highlight this. Cha eats a WICKED beating and damn near dies on a 3D style powerslam. Jake almost puts Darling down but the big strong outworks the scrappy and Chacha gets tossed into a wicked powerbomb for the three. This actually ruled.
Match 2: Rain Conway vs CPA
Conway says that if he wins, CPA should do his taxes for free. CPA has an easy time controlling Conway until Rain dodges the 1099. That sounds meta. The shenanigans of CPA leads back to the 1099 and getting mucked up in the many shirts of his opponent. Conway gets caught trying to throw a closed fist….CPA with the rollup and the win!
Match 3: The Residency (Rex Lawless & Nick Robles) vs Big Buisness (TJ Crawford & Julio Cruz)
Oh hell yeah! Stoked to see Cruz here. It’s wild cause we’ve cheered and booed everyone in this match at some point, EXCEPT Nick. Nick’s always sucked. By the way, where in the hell is RJ Rude. True Story: my band DnA’s Evolution is playing a show with his band Always Grounded next Friday in Worcester and why is he not here to promote??? True heel move. 
Anyways. Cruz dominates the early minutes until Rex starts to overpower TJ’s time in the ring. Crawford looks to be favoring one foot and it’s making it harder to come to the rescue when The Residency tries to double team Cruz. Julio endures and a double vertical suplex to Rex gets the three!
The Stetson ranch runs down to attack Crawford and Cruz. Big Bacon charges to break it up! He says we’re not waiting, he wants his match with Brian Morris now. No friends, no cornermen, no time limits, RIGHT NOW! Stetson heads to the back, as do Crawford and Cruz.
Match 4: Brian Morris vs Big Bacon Brad Hollister (no time limit)
Morris wants no part of this and tries to evade Bacon at first. And then Hollister gets his hands on Brian and this is a one sided beating being offered up. Morris with a well timed leapfrog and Bacon spears the middle rope with his face. Eeeesh! Morris takes the shots he can until Hollister rallies back. A big powerbomb and an ankle lock almost gets the tap. Morris taking cheap shots but Bacon endures. They go back and forth, both coming razor close to the finish. Wonderboy whiffs a dive and turns around directly into a spear. Bacon hits the tornado jackhammer and gets the three! This was a blast of a 15 minute contest.
Bacon calls Stetson out to “scrape his boy off the floor). In two weeks, it’s the Ranch vs Big Business 4 on 4. Stetson says there’s five ranch member to choose from. That math doesn’t work? OH NO. LUCAS CHASE IS BACK! He bowls Bacon over and hits a Samoan drop! Stetson announces Chase’s big return and says he’s gonna fight TJ next week so Big Business only has 3 members to fight in two weeks.
Match 5: Gabby Forza vs Amity Lavey
Gabby gives her gnome hat to Lavey as a valentines prezzie. Amity loves it but goes right on the attack! Gabby showing power, Amity slipping it and trying to chop our Gnomie down. In the fight, Amity breaks one of her spooky nails and she freaks out and goes even harder on the attack. Forza’s had enough and Levay is having trouble moving the big strong gnome. Gabby clubs her down with an ax handle. World’s strongest slam. Vader bomb! Lavey kicks out! She’s still bringing it to Forza but it’s not enough! Gabby hits a press slam and cuts her through with a spear for the win! This low key ruled.
Match 6: Oxx Adams (w/ BRG) vs Tyree Taylor (Wrestling Open #1 contenders tournament first round)
It’s always wild to see Tyree outsized. But he’s built like a tank. It’s MEAT O CLOCK in Worcester! The fight goes right to the floor, BRG is tossed aside with ease as Tyree and Oxx throw heavy hands. Brett grabs Taylor leg cause of course he does. Oxx with a black hole slam that nearly collapses the ring. Oxx is on top for a lot of this. Every time Tyree tries to overpower, he just can’t lift the bigger man. Adams starts to fade over time and Taylor finally takes control. Oxx can’t hold Taylor up anymore. A shining wizard plants him! Discus lariat! BRG tries to interfere, Taylor blasts him! Moonsault from Tyree gets the three!!!! Awesome!
Dustin Wallers flies in to attack his now confirmed semi-final opponent! He says Tyree has never faced Big Match Dusty before and he’s not ready for their match. He sure seems confident.
Main Event: Fancy Ryan Clancy vs Brando Lee (Wrestling Open #1 contenders tournament semifinal)
Clancy stole the pin on Monday in their preview match. Is Lee ready to take the W tonight? Lee is ready to put Clancy right on the backpedal, landing dropkicks that send Ryan flying. Clancy doesn’t like eating his own finish and trips Lee into the buckles to stop that instantly. Clancy tosses him to the floor, saying Lee doesn’t have it in him. Great tease on a styles clash but Clancy kicks free. This crowd is very split. Maybe some people don’t know what a toolbag Clancy has been lately. Clancy keeps trying to land that dropkick but Brando has it scouted. Lee has been damaged and can barely lift Clancy..:but he CAN hit a third dropkick! Clancy with a cool electric chair German but can’t get the pin! Clancy keeps trying for that dropkick…this time Brando catches him into the styles clash! This rules. They keep hitting the ropes, you know Clancy wants it. He tries the rollup and Scott catches him holding the ropes! Clancy in the refs face! Scott shoves him into a rollup! Kickout! Rolling dvd! Frogsplash connects! Clancy kicks out! We have less than five minutes left! On the apron, fighting for that one big kill shot! Clancy sent to the floor and Brando suicides after him! Lee misses the double stomp. Off the ropes, Clancy hits the dropkick finally and Lee is down for the three. FANTASTIC main event match here.
Clancy on the mic. Two down. One to go. Then He gets HIS Wrestling Open championship back.
