RUDO’S DEVILS NIGHT REVIEW:

 

First off, huge thank you to Jae and all involved in putting on this show; from the vid packages, to the commentary, to just getting this shit up online. Just know your efforts are seriously appreciated. This was the best show out of all my time in OCW, and an amazing way to cap off a great season so far.

 

The opening vid pack was awesome and really set the tone for the rest of the show. It had that big PPV feel about it from the get go. And the international commentary team vid made it seem like a WM type event.

 

+ RYU gets his comeuppance for putting his shoeless feet on the boss’ desk. Then is thrown into one of his mobile homes. What if Ryu could teleport between dumpsters? *THINKING EMOJI*

 

MATCH:

Drago Cesar vs. Bray – LHW Title Challenge

 

Nice little surprise to start the show off with Bray answering the challenge. Weird costume though. I’m a filthy casual when it comes to anime so I didn’t recognise it. Match was fun and Bray showed he could hang with the BITW. A few timely counters from Drago ends this one with the DOUBLE DRAGOOOOOOO!!!! Another successful defense from the Serbian Hunter.

 

+ Quartz going after Heather now? Their child would be born with a plethora of mental illnesses; I don’t think that’s a good idea, Ijitu! First TTT/H20 run in of the night, with the former LHW champ showing nothing but confidence. But what was he doing in Heathers locker room? ***THINKING EMOJI***

 

MATCH:

Mistico vs. TLBS

 

Weird entrance from Mistico/Bourne; didn’t get it. Seemed more weird/creepy heel than a face entrance. And the purple motorbike helmet? What? Liked the cape though. MAROON HORSE! This fued was a great example of two rookies taking the initiative to fued; it makes a big difference having someone to tango with story-wise and these two pulled off a nice short tale resulting in this cane match. Needed more cane but it was a super competitive match and came down to the wire; that finish was outta nowhere to end Mistico’s undefeated streak! Plenty of angles to play off after the result of that match. Good job guys.

 

+ B-17 gives Cort some good vibes and peps him up for his match against Shep. 17 always seems to be able to get his weird side across in his writing. He’s a little creepy but you know he means well and has a good heart. Cort is gifted the Bandana of USA, which is gives +5 to attack rolls and advantage on saving throws against cowardly yellow bellies. LET’S GO, CORT!

 

+ Nice little RP from Valk with a mystery caller/former lover? Whatever they said was inspiring and I’m sure Valk felt that talk helped in her getting ready for the match with the she-devil that is Heather Angelo. Who was the caller though? *****THINKING EMOJI****

 

+ The music ad/vids were great and really added to the immersion, especially on the live stream. It made it feel more like an actual event. A minor thing but made a big difference. Good stuff.

 

+ Terra makes her on screen PPV debut with vegan sandwiches! Now I’m getting hungry dammit! I wonder who the mystery man is? ‘Golden’ would lead me towards Tibby but...hmm... ********************************THINKING EMOJI****** So many damn mysteries tonight!

 

+ B-17 / Jackman hype vid was a neat touch. 17 sounds like the Joker, which is creepy as fuck when you couple it with his sexual nature hahaha. A lot on the line in this match.

 

MATCH:

CCW Tag Titles – Scumciety vs. Austin Aries

 

This match was built up beautifully over the past while with a heated fued between both teams. Scumciety had been, as was a running theme for a lot of matches at this event, ‘poking the bear’ that is Austin Lee even though the guy had retired and was trying to live his best life in the commentary booth. Then, Scumciety, like the bullies they are, had to try and knock down a returning Aries, attempting to douse him in self-doubt. Well guess what? In the end it didn’t even matter #LINKINPARK. It was a hell of a back and forth match with some great tag team tactics being used by both teams and there was a couple of times I thought SC might retain, but DAMN, that running boot was such a nice ‘outta nowhere’ finish. Congrats Austin Aries for knocking those rascals down a peg and gaining the CCW Tag Team titles.

 

+ Another insane RP from P3, this time Xmas themed! Always a rollercoaster of events, Drago and Mugen’s talk show resembles something created purely for those with ADHD or a coke habit. As much as I enjoyed the holiday mayhem, it didn’t build anything towards their match tonight which was a prime opportunity to do so.

 

+ Terra still peddling her vegan treats. These segments add to her character progression in that it shows her caring, nurturing side, but I think it could’ve possibly waited til RIOT or Turmoil (unless there’s something coming up later this all ties into of course). Terra reminds me of a Dryad; sweet and giving if treated right, but I feel if you mess with her natural habitat, vegan food, and plant-life she will snap and launch thorn-blights and entangle you in a thorny prison.

 

+ CLASH promo clip was tight, such a small thing but I feel like during the live show it made it feel that much more like a live PPV airing. It did it’s job; I’m hype for The Clash and I know none of the matches yet hahaha.

 

+ On-screen debut of Alyssa Winters. Not sure who the handler is but the promo was a good intro; got the gimmick across and showed (I think) her alignment on the Face/Heel scale. Looking forward to seeing what she does in the new year.

 

MATCH:

B-17 vs. Code Jackman

 

This was a banger of a match. Code has improved leaps and bounds on the sticks since I’ve been here and he was against one of Turmoil’s top stars. With the B-Community in the hands of the wrestling gods, these two battled all over the ring area, back and forth, with neither two steps ahead in colour at any point (from memory). Then that finish! Probably my favourite finish of the night; and I was on Brazzers a couple hours after the live show. Good shit. Plus plenty of mileage in this one still. Will B fight back to regain his position in the B-Community? How will OtaKru take this change?

 

+ My stuff. Thanks to Jake and Doc G for their kind words on the post-show podcast. Comment as you will.

 

MATCH:

Women’s Championship – Dragana vs. FloJo – XTREME RULEZ

 

Another improved handler this season is Flojo. I’m glad she’s had some direction at this point of the year; I like the CAW and she’s over enough that people will be invested in what she’s doing. And how can you not be invested in her journey to a title shot against the most feared woman (maybe except Bertha *shudders*) in OCW. Another great competitive match in an already stacked card. Flojo held her own against the champ but was ultimately put down with the Shattered Memories on the chair; another great finish on this show. That coupled with some other well executed moves onto chairs made the match seem even more brutal. Grats on the defence, Dragana. Anyone who doubted (if there was any) can now “shhhhhh”.

 

+ This post-match RP swerved me. At first I thought FloJo was gonna go full heel and take out all the medical staff, but it turned out to be a frustrated face move after handing the title back to Dragana and honouring her win. FloJo one tough bitch.

 

+ I didn’t get the sports/athletic sexy time intro to this segment but I thought it was a fine promo injection to break up the show a bit. Little short on the dialogue but I could appreciate the message having followed the Tayy story with Telos/Dillinger. Didn’t really understand the athlete look either considering he’s an RnB singer; I prefer the R-Truth look in that regards but hey, it’s different.

 

+ The Inception finally get a name. Always been a fan of the introspective RP’s and this one was no different. Giving an insider look at the mindset of H20 while simultaneously giving each member of the group a lil somethin’ to do in the RP made it really gel as a team RP. It’s the type of RP that TTT tend to do in terms of getting everyone involved. I agree with Doc G and Jake with their views on the KD thing too; it was great to see more dialogue and personality shine through for him.

 

MATCH:

Pride Championship – Cort vs. Shep

 

Backyard Wrestling Terminator Cort. Dug Shepards attire too, nice colour scheme over a classic attire style. This match was true to the feud that birthed it; a lot of weapon spots and brutality. And even though there was a few weapon matches on the card this one managed to still stand out. In fact every weapon match sort of did something different, which is a feat in itself seeing as there is obviously no coordination between everyone or agents telling the talent what to do. All in all I enjoyed the story told in this one, especially with the after match clip. This feud has the potential to keep going to The Clash, which is what I expect may happen.

 

+ This Kasstianity RP was eerie, but I thought it was odd that it was Quartz by himself and not with Rust? Unless there’s a split in the works or Kass plans to turn Ijitu against him? Either way, great scene setting and descriptive language. Will be interesting to see how Kasstianity develops in the new year. New members perhaps?

 

+ Was good to see Ashley show up on the PPV, keeps her relevant. Was also a good little further character develop moment for both her and Terra, even though at this point it seems Terra is over-saturating the show a little.

 

+ Shep with the follow up RP putting anyone gunning for the Pride Championship on notice. Solid little RP to show a bit more personality.

 

MATCH:

Contract TLC – Archer vs. Jehst

 

Even with all the fuckery of this game after numerous attempts (around 15 or so...) to get a match with Jamie it just wasn’t gonna happen. Have to give a big thanks to Ricky for filling in and help putting on a super solid match, was a lot of fun. And thanks to Jamie for being an easy fued partner and trusting me enough with his character to lay out the RP’s for him to edit if necessary. It’s been a fun ride. Props to Jake and Jae for picking up on the nuance of Jehst targeting the arms during the match. And while I can see Doc Green’s point with the ‘premature’ comment on the podcast in regards to the Capo turn, we felt it would have more impact and catch everyone off guard. I think it was Cort who commented a while ago after the RP me and Cap put out where he mentioned the line that would be repeated after that elbow to the back of Jehst’s head; “Success by any means necessary”, and that came full circle here. Glad a lot of you got into this feud and match.

 

+ A desperate plea from Heather goes unanswered. This was a good final RP to build up to their match. It also left a few questions on the table about the stable war between Inception and TTT.

 

MORE TO COME - THIS TAKES AGES, FUCK

Illuminati’s Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious TTT Night Review

Dragana and Flojo Segment

 

This was a nice FIGHTING SPIRITU promo and it’s a great example of making the best out of a loss. Despite losing to Dragana convincingly this promo still keeps Flojo strong.

 

Tayy Return Video...

 

At first when I saw all the Ts I thought this was a surprise TTT video that Quartz had done. Then a slightly taller Buddy Burns walked out. I don’t know if a returning Tayy warranted an all out video promo, I think a text RP would have been fine, but if Quartz doesn’t mind the extra work on an alt character I guess it’s.

 

Inception Promo

 

I liked the dream sequence that kicked this promo off. A lot of newer folks don’t realize the history between Heather and Harvey and the fact that Heather started off as Harvey’s valet. It’s a neat introspective bit showing how far Harvey has come from his debut.

 

Now to the meat of the RP I sort of wish the beginning of Inception was a little more high energy. Rather than kicking off with a bang it was just backstage with some drinks, it's fine cause I feel like that fits the groups style better than big and flashy… again this is more of a reflection on me, I like big and flashy I suppose.

 

MATCH:Shepherd vs Cort Marshall

 

I liked the story the entrances told in this matchup. Cort came out looking for blood dressed in traditional street fight jeans and armed with an American Beat Stick. Meanwhile Shepherd came out on his own terms, in wrestling gear because he is a wrestler. It very much echoed the sentiment of the feud with Shepherd being tired of being held back by Cort’s shenanigans, he came out on his own terms as his own man.

 

Onto the match itself I really don’t have much to say. It was super smooth, and everything felt appropriate , the weapons weren’t overused and came into play without feeling forced. I thought the ending beatdown was played a little longer than I’d like, for me just hitting an extra finisher is enough to make a point for a beatdown but again, that’s a personal taste thing.

 

My one complaint, although I hesitate to call it a complaint was I thought Bobby Minio should have been in the mix somehow, with a win against Cort and a great performance against Shepherd. In my opinion Shepherd and Cort should have let their blood feud stir for a little longer before getting the one on one blow off and played Bobby off as getting in the way in this matchup.

 

Kass and Quartz Segment

 

MY SON is a great father figure to HIS SON. When I’ve been unjustly taken out of the equation by Jay, Kass slides into the mentor role perfectly. As always I enjoy the dichotomy of TTT and Kasstianity.

 

PAGE 5

 

Terra and Ashley Segment

 

This segment does right, what I thought the Terra/Flojo segment did wrong. Terra and Ashley’s characters shine equally in this rather than one overwhelming the other. I get that Terra is the naive babyface and that Ashley is the overbearing bitch heel.

 

MATCH:Thomas Archer vs Justin Jehst

 

Nothing out of the ordinary for entrances this match. Both guys have fitting looks, motions and music thumbs up on that end.

 

As for the match itself, unfortunately for me, the moment I saw that there was sub in the match I checked out completely, aside from that it was a solid match

 

But I also had the opportunity to discuss this match with Pugh. I’m not sure if he relayed some of his thoughts on it in discord or in the CAW stream he did but I’m going to share them here.

 

The psychology of this match was off. The was the storyline played out I was expecting Archer to go for the contract at every opportunity(doesn’t mean he has to try and take it down you can purposely fail the minigame). I thought for the most part Jehst stuck to his characterization by putting a beating on Archer even at the cost of opportunities to pull down the case.

 

Valkyrie Heather Segment

 

This is a solid segment with Valk and Heather, really gets over the Furiosa gimmick and creates tension leading into the match. Even Heather is afraid of this bitch DAMN.

 

PAGE 6

 

Quartz Solo Segment

 

Quartz has a lot of stuff going on between his alts, TTT and his own feuds. It’s a wonder he still puts up these solo/introspective pieces. I’m a big fan of this style of promo, especially at this point in Quartz’s career, interested to see where he goes with this.

 

Cort Solo Segment

 

Damn, Shepherd fucked you up like that! Interested to see the ramifications of this on the feud. This seems to be going long term like I expected.

 

MATCH: Heather vs Valk

 

Really enjoyed the entrances and attires in this match, especially Valkyries, really cool.

 

Onto the match, for a few Valkyrie matches now, I’ve said I’ve had “thoughts” regarding the match and left it at that, publically anyways. Privately I followed up on my “thoughts” and they were confirmed upon a little digging. So this time I’m going to state my “thoughts” flat out.

 

This felt like a reshoot to me. Especially in the way the finish played out. Reshoots should be used as a last resort, not to make someone look better if they had a rough match. If you had a poor performance in a match, write an RP, and explain it. Flojo did it perfectly earlier in the night.

 

Telos and Dillinger Segment

 

I really enjoy the Telos/Dillinger partnership, and I’m glad Telos got on a big show like this. Good Job.

DINNER BREAK

 

What Valk and I do is totally authentic. There’s not one match we put out was bogus. So for that to be even a thought is sad. I’m not ashamed to admit that I can’t bury Valkyrie. Never have.

 

What i will say is that we both didn’t want that table glitch broadcasted. We’re handlers that seek perfection. We thought you guys would be disappointed by the table not breaking when she missed.

 

So please don’t give her heat for “funny stuff” going on. What you see is what you get from Valk. Girl is a beast behind the scenes and when the lights come on. Don’t try to spread your trash on someone who’s purer than yours truly.

 

Thank you and good day
