ATTACK! Pro Wrestling - My Sacrifice II: EmbassyBingoMania - 08/04/2018 - Live Report

8th April 2018 - Live from Walkabout, Cardiff

This was Attack's annual pre-WrestleMania show. Over the years Attack has produced some great talent, this was most evident in the lead up to this show since a lot of the big names were in New Orleans for the 'Mania festivities. But there was no need to be worried, Attack always delivers.


1) ATTACK Tag Team Championship match: Team Whitewolf (Adam Chase & A-Kid) beat Bowl-A-Rama (Splits McPins & Lloyd Katt)
2) Chuck Mambo beat Beano, Chris Ridgeway, 'Dragonheart' Danny Jones, Jack Sexsmith and TK Cooper
3) Sierra Loxton beat Millie McKenzie
4) Wild Boar beat Mike Bird MOTN: As you would expect.
5) The Brothers Of Obstruction (James and Leigh) beat Nothing To Prove (Drew Parker and Bishop)
6) Dick Riley beat El Phantasmo
7) ELIJAH beat Chief Deputy Dunne

Nothing to Prove (Elijah, Drew Parker, Bishop) attacked the Anti Fun Police until Bowl-A-Rama, Sexsmith and Mambo ran out for he save. Attack had been posting strange videos leading up to this show. The lights cut out after the match and a new video played. When the lights came back on, Elijah and Parker beat down Bishop and Fatt Katt turned on Splits McPins! Absolutely shocked, I loved Bowl-A-Rama and thought they would get a Progress run this year. There were signs, since both members of Bowl-A-Rama play more serious gimmicks elsewhere but they were so good as Bowl-A-Rama and so well loved.

Pro Wrestling CHAOS - Total Chaos: Show 2 - 24/03/2018 - Live Report

24th March 2018 - Live from Hanham Community Centre

This was the afternoon show to the mystery event, Total Chaos.

1) Jeckel beat Jimmy Havoc

2) Gideon beat Wild Boar via DQ

3) Big Grizzly beat Splits McPins

4) No Holds Barred match: El Ligero beat Mike Bird MOTN

5) Martina The Session Moth beat Referee Paz

6) Dick Riley beat Jody Fleisch

Riley laid out the challenge to Matt Riddle for the title.
7) Oliver Sudden beat Alex Steele with help from special referee Eddie Dennis

8) The Brotherhood (James Drake, Joe Mezinger and Elijah & Nathan Bane beat Los Federales Santos Jr, Charlie Sterling, Beano and Joel Redman

Afterwards, James Drake bragged about how nobody could beat the Brotherhood and brought out the Owner of Chaos who the Brotherhood beat up. This forced the owner to bring out Modern Culture: Flash Morgan Webster, 'Dragonheart' Danny Jones and Matt Horgan who he had previously banished. It was a great reaction, made even better by the fact that Flash had pretended to everyone he was in Sweden.

I really enjoyed the two shows in one day format. That said, the first show was the better of the two. With appearances from Emma, Jody Fleisch and Matt Riddle (Riddle has pulled out and was replaced by Shane Strickland who subsequently pulled out and is currently replaced by Jeff Cobb) confirmed for the next show, I've booked tickets and look forward to more from Chaos.

Pro Wrestling CHAOS - Total Chaos: Show 1 - 24/03/2018 - Live Report

24 March 2018 - Live from Hanham Community Centre 

This was my first ever Chaos show. It was two shows in one day with every match being decided by a 'random generator', therefore there were no talent or matches announced. The only person on the poster, Eddie Dennis was unable to compete due to injury.

1) Dick Riley beat El Ligero & David Starr MOTN

2) Sierra Loxton beat Martina The Session Moth

After the match Kaggy and Wild Boar attacked Sierra.

3) Big Grizzly beat Joel Redman

4) Mike Bird and Chief Deputy Dunne beat Jimmy Havoc & Jeckel

5) James Drake vs. Drew Parker was stopped after Parker injured himself on a dive to the outside

6) Jody Fleisch def. Charlie Sterling: Great match, Sterling came out with one of the 5 Star Wrestling tag titles which had recently shut down and got great heat. Fleisch is still amazing and deserves a run at the top indies, he even did his trademark backflip off a wall. Amazing.

Probably the best wrestling show I've seen live from start to finish. The opener was full of main eventers, I should have known then that we were in for something special. The WWE UK and ATTACK 24/7 Champion, Pete Dunne made a surprise appearance (a theme of the second half of the show) in a fantastic way. Brookes arrived to compete in a tag match but Lykos has just had surgery. Brookes said he's got a partner in the back and would just go and get "it" which suggested that he was getting inflatable Lykos. I love inflatable Lykos but Pete Dunne topped it. Dunne destroyed Drew and Elijah around the ring, just madness. Then 8 days after winning the IWGP Junior title at Wrestle Kingdom, Will Ospreay made a surprise appearance in an excellent bout with Wild Boar. The match was insane and included Boar diving from the top rope to Ospreay who was standing on a chair. Moustache Mountain then topped off the night with an fun tag match which also showed that Bowl-A-Rama are ready to be booked all over the UK. Fat Katt did the first ever wrestling encore by singing Bate's Sledgehammer theme then making up words to his own theme. Epic.
