NYWC: Angry Andy Reviews "Psycho Circus the 13th"

Psycho Circus Match

Mikey Whipwreck, Joey Conway, Joe Ettell, Joe Gacy & J-Ro vs. Stockade, Apollyon, Casanova Valentine, Jamie Van Leamur, & King Mega

If you’re expecting a play-by-play on this one, it’s not gonna happen.  I wouldn’t know where to begin.  There was barbed wire, steel cage, ladders, tables, and all sorts of other weapons…and it was brutal.  Casanova Valentine murdered Joe Ettell by powerbombing him through a barbed wire web.  J-Ro sent Valentine from the top rope, through a table on the outside.  Gacy and Mega eliminated each other, by going through a table between the apron and the guard rail.  Joe Gacy put Apollyon through a ladder in the ring. You get the idea.  This one started and ended with Stockade and Mikey Whipwreck.  Stockade grabs a chain and hangs/chokes Mikey with it, until he’s forced to tap.

What I liked: This was crazy, and brutal.  While I’m not wild about hardcore/weapons matches, this was pretty well done. It was well-paced, and almost everything seemed to mean something.

What made me angry: I’m not entirely sure what happened at the end of the match.  It was hard to see from where I was standing, but I know Vitko and Stockade were yelling to ring the bell… so I don’t know if the refs were out of position and missed the tapout, or if Mikey didn’t actually tap… it was confusing, but a minor issue in a good match.
NYWC returns to action on Saturday, March 28th.  Sadly, I won’t be there, because I’ll be on a plane to San Francisco to watch WrestleMania.  Match information and tickets will be available soon at NYWCWrestling.com.  Enjoy the show!
