Wranglers have ever got we've earned we've clawed we've scratched we fought and we've earned it and that's what's
1:16
going to happen but tonight the closers are coming back into the life of the Rangers we done beat them all over the
1:22
Carolinas we done beat them everywhere we've seen them they're good they're bad they're strong they're tough blah blah blah it don't matter the Wranglers are

1:35
Tuck you know it's like my partner said good friends good partners there's miscommunication sometimes

2:19
mean you've got two young great competitors in the singles division and
2:24
Zega perennial TV champion and Justin Kendrick Allen who's having this non battle match i don't know what did he
2:30
did he use his He did not why why why didn't he use it here this match was
2:36
signed before the ink had dried on that Bunk House Stampede I'm assuming i don't know maybe he's not ready to cash it in
2:43
Curtis that's what I would do i would cash it in we're going to find out what the heck's going on but we got a big
2:49
match right now as we got a tag team action here on NWA Championship Wrestling if you don't know already I'm
2:56
your host Michael Elliot i'm joined by the throwback Curtis Robertson tell him hello Curtis say something hello
3:03
something good you can follow directions we're going to get along great oh my goodness
3:09
i don't think so this I feel like I've done 400 and
3:14
episodes with you by myself we're on episode 42 on the Did you ever get to
3:21
500 i think so hope they don't fire me before then i think we'll get there well
3:26
I think Are Aren't you in the announcers union i I don't think there's any type of union especially in the pro wrestling
3:32
world thank you you know you can thank for that who
3:38
the body no that he was trying to get it going there but he got the snitch on
3:43
nobody likes a snitch my friend who was the snitch the holster yeah that's what they say
3:50
we've got tag team action we've got the Wranglers and then you got here one half of the closers Derek Driver
3:57
yeah he's teaming up with prime time dug this guy here uh Tucker Rhodess is a
4:03
snitch too what do you mean he'll always tell you when we're out of catering so I can't get another plate of food
4:10
i didn't know we had catering oh there's a lockup
4:16
i know there's no love loss between VSSP and the Wranglers and that's not at all throwing jabs at the the cowboy here but
4:23
Curtis one of these days you might be standing back across the ring from the Wranglers with those tag belts on the
4:29
line so I'd watch what I say i think you can I don't think you can back it up i'm not I'm not worried about
4:35
the Wranglers at all and I don't think I don't think Driver is either here
4:40
driver is a impressive physique been around the business a long time especially here in the Carolinas but now
4:46
he's tagging in the younger bigger Dugot
4:53
this kid here has got a lot of potential yeah dot collegiate football player too
4:58
very strong and very athletic for a man his size
5:05
but these two men I think I don't know i think we might have a might be even here on the strength oh right there went for
5:10
the lock up but caught him in a side headlock that the cowboy took a road you don't usually see Tucker out quick
5:16
somebody but he did there very impressive you know Tucker has a athletic background as well competitive
5:23
eating i think I can't wait for the day i get to sit here and watch him slap the taste
5:29
out of your mouth oh boy stalemate again on the tackles nobody moving here i'm just kidding tucker has a amateur
5:36
wrestling background um Oh boy takes him down that time got a little extra run
5:42
into him there to Tucker and now is he going to suplex the big man he's going to try to he gets
5:49
him up and over hopefully nice this dude got up and over
5:55
oh look at there driver with a rake to the eyes curtis what do you mean you
6:01
know what I mean you know what I mean he had something in his eyes there derek was trying to get it out there's no good defense for a rake to the eyes is what I
6:08
mean that's right even if you wear glasses yeah cuz some if you're wearing them the guys just going to take them
6:14
off a rake your knives or just punch the glasses into your face that'd be even worse big double axe handle off the
6:19
second rope from the outlaw here wrist lock into a hammerlock into a headlock
6:25
advancing positions from the outlaw david Sers he's in firm control with his headlock and now what's Dugot going to
6:32
do dugat's going to get taken over with that headlock takeover now rolls him over for a pinfall
6:40
for for a wrangler this uh this uh this outlaw uh Dave Cell has a lot of
6:47
wrestling they rrestled cattle and hogs and all kinds of stuff on the farm curry you
6:53
should visit it one day big clothes line but those other animals don't know how to follow rules you know there's a there's a lot more things outside of
6:59
Brooklyn you'd think you would think that'd be the case but probably you you'd be wrong
7:06
i'm I'm I'm pretty sure I'm right but Dugot had enough as he's tagged in driver
7:12
these guys here they're no strangers to each other as the closures and the Wranglers have mixed it up on more than
7:18
one occasion but Driver getting the better of the Outlaw right here
7:24
and now Irish whip reversal from Sellers
7:29
oh big clothes line in the buckle
7:34
snap Mars him over big knee to the shoulder area up by the
7:41
jaw sellers in firm control here till Dug comes in and makes the save
7:47
seller still control going back to the arm people you hear that they said break it
7:53
they want him to break their driver's arm that's not nice flips him right over why Why are these NAWA fans so
8:00
bloodthirsty this is wrestling baby i mean you don't want to see somebody get their arm broken you want to see the guy
8:07
be able to compete the next time i love arm work arm work is great but I don't want to see arm break and more arm work
8:14
is even better i think so i think we might see some more here
8:19
hey hey I was right arm work he's working the armrest the arm work to
8:26
Derek Driver he's telling our official to look the other way and behind her back he got out
8:34
of it oh but he got met with a big right hand the cheater the cheater tucker
8:39
Rhodess here with right hands and headbutts why is that cheating you're not supposed to punch and wrestle this
8:44
must be a grappling contest oh boy big elbow he just grappled oppo right into the chest of Derek Driver
8:52
dugat again having to come in to make the save for his team
8:57
smart move by Dugot
9:04
hammer lock applied we're going to call this We're going to call them closing time
9:09
oh I like that i like that that's pretty good call that pretty good just now yeah it took me a little while to come up
9:15

9:59
Masonsized head that's true that's true seen the size of that kid's mel next size down though i This is still pretty
10:05

10:12
yeah the uh the torpedoes you got to watch out for now Dugot and Driver
10:17
working well together for a first time team a first time pairing can they beat the Wranglers here know the Wranglers
10:25
have had a little bit of dissension in the ranks a little bit confusion but they're looking pretty good here today
10:30

10:36
that turnbuckle went right into the chest of the Outlaw now Derek Driver tags back in dugot

middle of the ring a lot of trouble here you call it a rear necked choke yeah yeah yeah you call it that too oh look
11:11

11:16
this is a little bit of the exper inexperience of prime time dug out here that sleeper hold was working there was
11:22
no reason to advance to the strikes here just yet make him fight out of it but uh
11:29

Mason Allen they're going to be in tag team action next week taking on the

15:38
Carolina Dreamer Tony Johnson Curtis next week right here on the program i
15:44
looking forward to that match too i don't know why uh Dave Sers won't just keep tagging with the tag team he's got
15:50
a different partner all time well they seem to be back on the same page earlier
15:55
in this episode but you never know maybe Tucker's got somewhere to be maybe he's got a wedding to go to who knows he's
16:02
got to contend to things on the farm on the ranch you know i don't know ride Wrangler's Ride well he might be riding
16:09
somewhere but Pony Johnson is going to be stepping in next week
16:15
oh holy Christ you missed that he just se Vegas just shoved Justin Kendrick
16:21
right in the face i can't say I blame him for that he pie faced him there you know that there ain't no love lost here
16:28
there's no love loss between Allen any Allens and and Zay Vega at all it wasn't
16:34
that long ago that Justin Kendrick and the Allens stole Gina right from the
16:40
grasp of Zega remember they stole all the belts no I don't remember them stealing them i
16:46
remember them having all the belts they were the title holders and then they they lost them in that huge Thunderdome
16:52
War Games which you can check out on our our YouTube channel just go check us out
16:57
the Carolina Wrestling Historic Archives oh my gosh what a slap
17:03
openhanded slap right across the face of Zay Vega thinking better of it
17:10
he's on the run now he's trying to get the hell out of here this is a non-title match he's still on
17:18
the run you're not running fast enough zega now catches up to him and hits him
17:25
with a right hand there you think if Zay Vega hits Justin hard enough he can knock some sense into him
17:32
sure i mean you'd have to hit him pretty hard justin is on the run our camera crew having a difficult time catching up
17:38
to this action here they're going all over the the facilities here at Open Tap i hope they
17:46
don't go in the tap room i hope I hope so too this is uh Look at him that's the fastest I've ever seen Justin Kendrick
17:52
run hey he he'll be tired after this he's He's He's blown up in a second i don't
17:59
Once again and I I say I feel like I say this more and more referee John Hark's lost control of this match zay Vega is
18:06
slowly stalking his opponent and he's trying to hide behind his child oh uh
18:11
worked perfectly there doesn't take much else that's why Justin as the action has
18:17
gone all over the parking lot here as these people elbow right in the jaw oh big chop there no effect doesn't look
18:25
like it had much effect at all you're right by Elliot that one seemed to yeah return fire from
18:31
Zay Vega now we're going to get hopefully we're going to get some control here from our
18:37
head official John Harky back in the square circle we go head of
18:43
steam from Justin hangs on a dodge and another slap there's an answer back to that slap earlier this ain't power slap
18:50
but this is pro wrestling big drop kick there those slaps can knock you out
18:56
goodness gracious using that leg this that could be it
19:02
and this I don't even think this match for for Z is even about Gina this is just about beating the crap out of an
19:08
Allen well I mean it it stops being about Gina or titles or anything else when the grown man slaps you in the face
19:14
then it becomes personal and I don't know if that was a smart strategy by Justin to start things off here and once
19:20
again the action oh boy he's getting he's up close and personal here with the fans and now he's
19:27
got control of him he's telling these kids to come here and hit him oh my goodness
19:33
and again this little girl just smacking him oh that's a that's a fist right
19:40
there i feel like and I don't want to be a snitch or a stoogge here or anything
19:47
like that but I feel like that's outside interference and they should be disqualified
19:53
i don't care about Nobody cares about your feelings Curtis this is wrestling these kids just got involved in a match
19:59
because they told them to and our official Hark is letting it go right he's incompetent well he's doing a great
20:05
job if you ask me he's letting any any any drunken kid from the bar come a
20:11
drunken kid what do you mean i'm sure the parents are serving them they're probably high on sugar could be maybe
20:17
they had a mountain now Kendrick has Vega in the buckle
20:23
just pushing up on the chin now here Vega now look at Vega fighting dirty in
20:28
the buckle here and John Harky doing nothing to stop it double overhanded chop to the bare chest of Allen and now
20:35
reversal catches the boost throws him up and over
20:41
uses the momentum momentum does Vega and takes Allen down if I'm Vega here that
20:48
was very impressive i'm Vega here allen ducks behind shoot sends him in
20:55
low uh low snap German suplex very impressive there too if I'm Vega if you
21:01
notice Justin Kendrick Allen's got a sunburn all over him i just start hitting him in the sunburn see if I can
21:07
get him to quit he has just sunburn or his his white skin is really red well
21:12
just on the arms oh went for that knee oh catches him
21:18
with a boot to the back of the head that could have concussed Justin right there this has been all day so far pretty much
21:25
since the opening bell vega has been in charge just been belt belt to tail for the whole the whole match here this has
21:31
been a whooping and now Vega delivers a big forearm
21:39
staggering Allen and Kindred Allen excuse me dueling Vega and Allen chance
21:44
oh big clothes line turns him inside out dueling Vega and Allen chance in the crowd it seems to be like 7525 but it's
21:51
not uh not unanimous here there's a cover only at Connor one head
21:58
official John Harky out of position well you got to believe you know you asked earlier why is this match not for the TV
22:04
title why did Justin not not cash in his bunk house stampede opportunity well
22:10
Kurts maybe he's holding on to that but if he can win this non-title match here he won't even have to cash it in he'll
22:16
be shot right back up to the top of the ladder to get a shot at Gina once again
22:22
this he's conserving that shot for down the road this is this is a good point good point you're making about Elliot i
22:28
I I I hate to say it here but but Justin might have had a good idea let's have a
22:33
non-title match already signed i can feel him out i can see how good my chances are and then and then assess
22:39
from there i think that's what I just said well I said it better oh my goodness
22:46
oh my goodness reverse whip into the buckle using the momentum there sat down to the ground
22:53
st bad shape kendrick needs to get up off the mat and capitalize on what he just did here
23:04
he does not he's sitting down Indian style in the middle of the ring like ECW Raven i haven't sat down like that since
23:09
kindergarten don't think I could do it anymore instead of fighting this opponent here
23:16
he's giving Vega a little bit of time here but oh a knife edge chop vega trying to fight back here
23:24
vega trying to fight back still stunned still feeling the effects of the uh the offense from Justin Kendrick Allen here but showed a lot of heart again this
23:32
time shoulder first into that buckle shoulder and face first into that top turn buckle and look here now just
23:38
taunting the fans
23:43
zay Vega is a dangerous competitor i would not spend any time taunting him i don't want to be in the ring with him if
23:49
I'm dressing any longer than I have to be go ahead and try to put this away so you can put some distance between
23:55
yourself and Z oh my goodness ddt cover him he's out what are you doing
24:03
he's taking He's admiring his work here Curtis he's admiring what he's done here
24:09
to Z Vega i think it's safe to say that this might be they might be arch nemesis of each
24:16
other this has been going on for a long time not just here in NWA
24:22
and see what happens when you play with your food mega now on the recovery he's kicking
24:28
kick a chance to recover that's the last thing you want to do oh boy well there's
24:33
a big boot a stomp almost right to the back of the head that'll knock you loopy
24:38
Curtis yet that that will knock the senses right out of you now is this what Justin
24:45
Ke's going to need to win xlex there coming off Cinton connects
24:54
what a combination there he's won many matches like this not enough this time he didn't win it
25:01
this time but the damage is mounting up against Vega here it's only a matter of
25:07
time before Kendrick can put him away yeah Vegan doesn't seem to know where he
25:13
is right now in the ring he's fighting off of pure instinct at this point this
25:18
punishment he's taken over the last few minutes here kindred being very slow very cerebral
25:25
about this matchup here oh nobody home for the cannonball maybe that strategy of being slow
25:32
didn't work out right there vega able to roll out of the way and
25:37
this is the this is the moment in the match he needs to capitalize on as Vega
25:44
loading up those kicks oh he's got some pent up frustration here he's going to just double stomped him right there lent
25:50
out on on Justin Kendrick out going up oh setting up for that moonsalt off the
25:58
second rope but Kendrick did his homework now he's got him up sit out power bomb
26:04
that could be it only gets a two rolls through oh man huge kick to the side of
26:12
the face that's all the energy that Zay had i think he mustered just to get deliver that kick that both men are down
26:18
now referee John Harky start to administer that 10 count if these men can't get back to their feet this match
26:24
will end in a draw i don't These men are going to do whatever it takes to get back to their
26:30
feet but we're up to the count of five
26:35
and now six both men stirring around
26:41
you have a Vegas and Allen champs going again these men hate each other too much to let it in in a draw curtis both come
26:48
back up to a vertical base takes him down
26:53
blocks it with his feet and a knee right at the back and Vega
26:59
starting to gain some momentum here again good god rolled him and folded him
27:04
up in half dropped him right on his head pulling him into position here away from
27:09
the ropes what's he thinking he's going back up top he tried this earlier moon
27:15
salt there's a cover is that enough no a moonsalt off the second rope not
27:23
enough still to put Kendrick Allen away probably should have went to the top rope for
27:29
that horse that might have did it it very well may could have but it he didn't and now this
27:36
match is continuing look at the fans they've they're banging on the ring
27:41
that's how much they're enjoying this action that you're only going to get to see right here on NAWA Championship
27:47
Wrestling now death Valley driver out of Kred
27:52
pin him he's picking him up and now oh holy Christ that should have
28:00
did it there one two no Allan Wrench neck breaker didn't get it done i hate
28:08
Allen wrenches i love passion i love a Morton especially if you get the with
28:13
like a selfing one okay I'm sorry
28:18
better than Philips head screw the Allen ranch not enough that combination of
28:23
moves still not enough to put Z Vega down
28:29
what's Justin Kendrick going to have to do here to pick up the win
28:35
i don't I'm not sure what he's going to have to uh to pull out next the only thing we haven't seen him try is the
28:41
drill bit but that's not going to work right now he's not going to be able to pull anything out of getting kicked in the face using the speed of his feet
28:48
shining Wizard there he's close to those ropes but he grabs the arm
28:53
and he kicks out great wing awareness by by Vega to grab the arm so he couldn't
29:00
grab the ropes great intestinal fortitude by Justin Kendrick Allen to pull out that last
29:05
little bit of energy to just get his shoulder off the mat and this match continues
29:11
