RUDO’s TORTUROUSLY TRIPE TURMOIL REVIEW

 

+ MJF with one last dig at AC Cobra and one more chance to put himself over before his heated match with his adversary tonight. MJF touting himself as the Doctor of Leganomics? Let’s see if AC can prove that wrong.

 

+ Jehst shit.

 

MATCH:

Katherine vs. Heather Angelo

 

This one started off with a bit of back and forth action, neither gaining the upper hand for too long. Then Katherine dropkicks Heather to the outside! Diving crossbody! Then Heather gets her own elbow drop dive off! Unsafe levels are rising! More carnage on the outside and STILL both competitors are only one shade away from each other after a beautifully executed triple type suplex from Heather. Dropkick through the table! This is neck and neck! That flying body splash to the outside just took the unsafe meter to 11! FALLEN ANGEL THROUGH THE TABLE! BAH GAWD KENG, SHE IS BROKEN IN HAPH! How did she kick out of that one?! What a fuckin comeback by Katherine to hit the Pounce into the Curbstomp! Grats, awesome match.

 

+ Shit is already weird enough in OCW, now there’s some Vaporworld? I dunno if I’ve said it before but that just makes me think of a theme park where everyone is walking around in Monster Energy flat brim caps and skate shoes that could pad a fall from a 4 story building chuffing on cherry flavoured pipes. I can only wait and see what this world truly is.

 

+ The Cheryl/CJ love story continues to unfold. I’m wondering what twists and turns this relationship will have in the coming weeks/months and if there will be revenge on both of them at the hands of Riley.

 

MATCH:

MJF vs. AC Cobra

 

Gotta keep saying it but I love MJF’s entrance and attire, it just fits so well. AC needs an entrance video (I dunno if that’s just cos Dims had to film it on his console so no movie available?). Match starts out with MJF getting the better of AC, forcing him to eventually roll out the ring to avoid further punishment. AC manages to get a timley counter about 1/3rd of the way through, turning the tides but only for a 1 count. Half way point is neck and neck now, both guys with 1 x yellow. AC COBRA HITS THE DREAMCAST!! 1,...OHHH!!! MJF kicks out at 1! Bit more back and forth to keep this one flowing until AC begins to create a colour gap. AC has a few good strikes and a top rope dropkick but it’s not enough to MJF away. AC whiffs the counter and MJF is able to hit the Regal Cutter for the win!

 

+ Wrex and Jim with another meeting backstage; it’s like the universe is letting them know they’re meant to be together like Stan and Eminem. Wrex throws the usual Wrex shade at everyone on the roster and then says he’s buggering off home? *INSERT TULLY HERE* and he’s back on the card! WHO HE GON’ FIGHT?!

 

+ Code Terror prep for their match. I’d be hoping Valk doesn’t watch this episode of Turmoil of you’ve just lost your detective partner; you’ve seen how she’s treated Aerith for merely taking a title match, just wait till she gets a hold of you.

 

+ Yessssss! This is great character development from Kass, turning into the leader of Kasstianity and creating a cult. Easily an angle that could form a faction around him. Interested to see where this goes.

 

+ RIOT has passed the anime craziness to Turmoil it would seem. Trapped in a DVD? Da fuck yo? I mean shit, it’s wacky as hell but I can’t say I’m not looking forward to how this whole thing pans out.

 

MATCH:

Wrex vs. The World

 

Wrex, is that Gallows as your theme music? If not, vocalist sounds super similar. LOKIIII!! With Ricky’s theme hahaha. Nick Bates! That theme is dope as hell; love old school hip hop. Wrex leaves the other two to go at it, then comes back in for a sneak attack. HEEL SHIT. Everyone’s getting some shit in after that, although Loki missed an outside dive; #unsafe. Nice little Triple Threat spot with Bates hitting a dancing leg drop before Loki flies over with a springboard attack. That move from Bates is why I decided his new gimmick name is the “Hip-Hop-Boxer”. You could hear that backfist from Bates in the bleachers…damn. 2/3rds through and it’s pretty even colour-wise, Wrex slightly ahead. Another cool spot with Loki going HAM with a strike combo into a diving leg drop, then Bates coming through with the spear. Double DDT countered by Wrex! He hits the TUCK!! IT’S ALL OVER, HOOT!

 

+ JackMo RP was his usual goodness blend of great descriptions and hilarious banter. I liked how he explained his absence too, using the 4th of July as his excuse. And where is the damn FI briefcase?!

 

+ Cheryl and Valk finally put the beef to bed? I liked the use of the Nordic runes/symbols 2 squash the beefz. Interesting stuff to me cos I’m a nerd like that. Two of the best rookies this season too. Who knows where their story will go from here.

 

MATCH:

Ligermask vs. Kass

 

Lew look Kass! Dig the change up. I think that’s something Kass has done well this season since I’ve been here. Tie up to start things off which Kass wins before slapping Mask a bit. HEEL SHIT. That corkscrew plancha was #dangerous! Kass chasing Liger around the ring was lolworthy. Kass absolutely punishes Liger off that suplex major. Counter battles on counter battles but Kass is still 3 colours up, it doesn’t look good for Liger at this stage. Kass is all about the dives tonight! CODO SUPERBRILLIANTE! THE TIDES ARE CHANGING! Only a two count, but the colors are evening out now, there’s still time left for this to flip. NIGHTWALKERS SUNSET! FUUUUUCK! Did Mask just use Kass’ own fin against him? Kass needs the Resiliency to escape defeat. It’s all on now! Springboard 450; tight. Liger tryna sneak the dirty pin! Naw boi. Liger counters The Turn but gets kicked in the head! NADIE ESCAPA LA KHALLAS!!!!! It’s alllll over! Fuck yeaaaa boiiiiii! Awesome fuckin match, great comeback.

 

+ Dragana and Johnny Law. It’s crazy how over you can get by being a mute character with a charismatic manager. I suppose Kane was in that boat for a while. I dunno what it is I just enjoy the dynamic. Let’s see how long the ‘Age of Silence’ lasts on Turmoil.

 

+ Bray and Ace. Ace’s bday goes off with a bang! Ok, no more balloon popping puns. The RP was well written, I enjoyed it. Was interesting seeing a more tender (note: also weirdly uncomfortable) side of Bray, whom I’ve thought of til this point as a brooding, ruffian (mainly due to his attire/entrance).

 

MATCH:

Celtic Dragons vs. Code Terror (TAG TITLE MATCH)

 

These tag titles need to have more hype around them. Where were the RP’s (aside from Code Terror’s little spot) for the build up to this Main Event TITLE MATCH? There should have been at least an RP from Celtic Dragons as a team, even if only a few bars like Code Terror earlier in the show. Aside from that, let’s take a gander at this cage match.

 

The champs start out strong but are eventually both turned on their heels for a moment by Code Terror. Holy shit! CJ with the corkscrew moonsault! Didn’t expect that out of the gate! Both teams are vying for control, no one really getting any major momentum on either side. CJ with the double team counter! A few dives/springboards in a row, this is getting to be unsafe already! There’s really no clear winner at this point, though Code is the most fucked up almost half way through. Midway point it’s a bit more even now, surely someone will hit a finisher soon. CJ takes out Code even though Tay is climbing the cage, but Tay doesn’t manage to escape anyway. Double team Enziguiri from the Dragons! Code hits “Shattered Glass”, could this be the beginning of the end for the Dragons? Tay escapes leaving Code to fight off two Dragons. CJ takes out Ricky! WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON HERE?! Ricky “Truth and Consequences” into CJ’s “Irish Eyes Are Smiling” was an awesome tag team spot. Then Ricky hits the “Twist of Fate” for good measure. Code is not in a good state right now. Even though he’s getting double teamed he hits CJ with the “Lia-Drive”! Will the Dragons pull this off with Code down?! CJ gets caught! Code takes him out from the top of the cage! CODE TERROR WIN WHILE CJ…celebrates in ring? AAANNNDDD NEEWWWWW TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS!! Wait…Code?! NO! Face first onto the table! Face turn for Tay? Or face turn for Jackman? He’s a heel beating up a heel, but he’s done it in a heel way so who’s the face here?! I…don’t…understand. So how is this supposed to progress with Code having both belts? Tay becomes face for vengeance and they become a partnership of hatred, fucking each other over? Whether Code likes it or holds both belts physically, Tay is still one half of the tag champs. All I can say is I’ll be watching to see how this pans out.

 

+ And we round the night out with AWOL. NOT CORT’S TRUCK! FOR FUCKS SAKE, JACKSON! Does JackMo got da X-Bone1? I wanna see both guys go at it but I feel unless they have the same console we’ll only see it through RP, which is totally fine, either way it’s a good little story to carry over a few shows. DRAMA, B!

 

Great show on short notice everyone. Some Summercide build ups I can feel coming on, which should be an amazing finish to the season.

 

Thanks to Jae and anyone else who help put shit together for this show.

 

MOTN: I have a tie between Heather/Kat and Kass/Ligermask. Both were fuckin awesome battles with great spots and pacing, topped off with finishes that left me going “oooohhhh!!!” Great stuff.

 

RPOTN: For me this week it’s a tie between JackMo’s monster truck and Cheryl/Valk with the Nordic runes thingy.
