The homicidal, suicidal, genocidal Sabu
Note: I will publish any report that is sent to this section. Accuracy could take a hit, so just like the Rants section and the Results section, some entries may not be truthful. Also, (maybe I should have posted this in the first edition) these show recaps and upcoming show reports are not written by myself. They are compiled by internet research, and emails sent to my account. Therefore, any no-shows by wrestlers, or fraudulent promoting by the owners is hereby not my responsibility. If you have been scammed into buying a ticket because you saw that Road Dogg would be appearing, but they offered a sub-par wrestling show instead, let me know so I can put a little fire to the scam-artist's ass.

Upcoming Shows

World Xtreme Wrestling: United We Stand Results, Upcoming Shows
WXW returned to the WXW Hall for the first time in almost two months for the "United We Stand" show in a night that would see a shocking end to a memorable night.
Afa "the Wild Samoan" and the entire locker room came out where an emotional speech was read about the tragedy that happened on September 11th. After the speech, a ten-bell salute was given and then "God Bless the USA" and the National Anthem were played.
The first match of the night was a 20-man Over-the-Top-Rope Battle Royal where the winner would pick what title he wanted to wrestle for that night. This battle royal had the likes of Moondawgs 2000, Samu, SLG and newcomer Chris Stylz. Stylz was #10, but lasted less than 5 seconds. It came down to Tommy Suede and "Big Poppa" Pete. Suede ran off the ropes and charge at Pete. The clothesline he gave him was with such force that both men went crashing to the floor.
The referees couldn't agree which person won the match so out came Commissioner Lotto Money and declared co-winners with each man picking his title match. Pete said he wanted his shot at "ShowTime" Shane Black because of what happened at Fun Fest and Suede said he was going for the "big prize" and the WXW title from Samu.
The first singles match of the night pitted two graduates of the Wild Samoan Training Center, as it was "Filthy" Phil taking on "Hot Rod" Rodney X. These two men barely got a chance to wrestle each other because out came Supreme Lee Great. SLG took out both men, and Rodney quickly went to the locker room. Phil opted to stay in the ring and SLG took him out. He then grabbed the microphone and says, "no one respects" him and he is going out to "find his smile". Phil, even with the beating he got from SLG, was able to walk on his own back to the locker room.
WXW Hardcore Title Match: "Xtreme" Billy Dream w/ Jessica Daly vs. Maleki w/ Dylan Dean
This match came about from what happened back in August when Maleki hit Jess. Billy Dream came out with fists of fire. Billy used garbage cans and plywood, but he couldn't put Maleki away. Jessica Daly came up on the ring apron and tried to hit Maleki, but instead it distracted Billy Dream. This allowed Maleki to hit the "Holy Ghost" for the win. After the match, Maleki again got his hands on Daly, but "The Star" Eric Kobian came out and stopped Maleki.
WXW Tag Team Title Match
On October 12th, the WXW Tag Team Titles were defended in Pittsburgh, Pa pitting Bob and "Weave", subbing for Neil, taking on the Twin Tackles. The Tackles came out with the win and the titles when they pinned "Weave" during the match.
This led us up to the rematch as the champions Twin Tackles defended against Neil n' Bob. Or would they? Before the match started, Commissioner Lotto Money said that the titles still belonged to Neil N' Bob because "Weave" was pinned in the match the night before and since he isn't a champion, the titles did not change hands. Neil N' Bob are still the champions.
This didn't affect the Tackles at all as they saw this as a chance to regain the titles. Regain the titles is just what they did as they annihilated the champions.
WXW Cruiserweight Title: "Big Poppa" Pete challenges "ShowTime" Shane Black This was Pete's title match from his win in the Battle Royal and he wasn't about to waste this opportunity. Pete was going in there to continue his fast way to the top, but could he overcome the experience of "ShowTime" Shane Black? Shane was teaching Pete a wrestling lesson of a lifetime, but made one costly mistake and Pete won with a belly-to-belly suplex and the title!! Pete was in the ring celebrating with his brand new title belt, but all of a sudden, Shane grabs the microphone. He informed Pete that the cruiserweight limit is 220 lbs. and Pete is 225 lbs. so therefore, he is over the limit and Shane is still the champion. Lotto Money came out and agreed and the title was given back to Shane Black.
The first match after intermission pitted the newest graduate of the WSPWTC, Havoc, taking on the returning "Samoan Storm" Afa, Jr. Havoc gave the WXW TV Champion a run for his money as he gave the champ a scare a few times in the match, but Jr. came back to win the match with the "Rock Bottom".
A battle of newcomers as "The Star" Eric Kobian took on Chris Stylz. Both of these men showed the great potential they posses and proved they will be in WXW for a long time, but Kobian was just a little better tonight as won with the Frogsplash. During the match, Maleki came out to "scout" Kobian, but out came "Xtreme" Billy Dream and those two gladiators fought back to the locker room.
The next match pitted "Teen Icon" Shawn Sheridan w/ Franky Fuji taking on "Beautiful" Billy Body. The action was fast paced in the match as both men were fighting to impress the WXW Championship Committee. In the end, Billy Body wins with a springboard off the ropes into a leg drop.
Main Event
WXW Title Match
Champion: Samu vs. Challenger: "Smooth" Tommy Suede w/ Ariel
This match was a battle of arguably the two most popular wrestlers in WXW. Could Suede match up against the more powerful Samu? Suede was determined to make the most of this match and come up with the title and go into the Big WXW TV Taping this Sunday as the champ. Samu, though, wouldn't be defeated and nailed Suede with the "Samoan Cutter". As the referee went for the count, out came Dylan Dean and the Twin Tackles and jumped Samu and Suede. All of a sudden, Suede joined in with the Twin Tackles in pounding on Samu. Out came the Moondawgs and chased Suede and the Tackles to the floor where Dylan Dean proclaimed "STS" has joined Team Dean! Has Suede sold his soul to the devil? Why would one of the most popular wrestlers in WXW go with Team Dean?
A six man tag was made for the next show in Hazleton on November 3rd as it will be Samu and Moondawgs 2000 taking on Team Dean: "STS" Tommy Suede and the Twin Tackles w/ Dylan Dean.
Unlike Scott Matthews, I will promote the WXW Net Cast. This event was taped for the "Brand New" Net Cast and will be posted sometime this week. Join "Mean" Mark Clemson and The Bald Guy bring you "United We Stand" in its entirety exclusively on www.thebaldguy.net.

WXW now rolls into its LIVE television show THIS Sunday at the brand new Lehigh Valley Sports Zone at 1209 E. Sherman Street, Allentown, Pa.
