Jane’s Place, CA – After a weekend that many fans are calling the best in Pro Wrestling Guerrilla’s (http://www.prowrestlingguerrilla.com) history, many fans were wondering what the PWG management would do to follow up an event as incredible as the “Battle of Los Angeles.” To be quite honest, we here at PWG didn’t know how we’d follow it up, either. PWG Commissioner SoCal Valerie Wyndham hasn’t been back to work, and has reportedly developed a fear of feet, since being super kicked by Joey Ryan, leaving Assistant Commissioner Dino Winwood to pick up the slack. On top of taking care of SoCal Val’s duties, Dino has tasks of his own to perform, including watering the office plants, feeding the parking meters (underground parking is part of the PWG 5-Year Plan,) and replacing copier toner, making him a very busy man. Despite being overburdened, Dino has the copier working at 100% capacity, and is ready to publish the lineup of PWG’s next live event, “After School Special,” taking place on Saturday, October 1 at the Hollywood-Los Feliz JCC!We should note that Dino actually made a Xerox of the lineup, written by hand on a cocktail napkin, which he then scanned in, retouched in Photoshop, printed as a .pdf, rescanned it, then emailed to the rest of the PWG staff. This seems to indicate that Mr. Winwood is either not that busy, and is creating extra work for himself, or is just creating extra work for himself.
After the proverbial smoke had cleared and the “Battle of Los Angeles” had concluded, Chris Bosh stood atop the field of 16 as the winner, and wasted no time letting everyone know that his sights were set even higher. Tossing aside his trophy like it was nothing but an inexpensive hunk of plastic and metal, instead of the ever-lasting reminder of great physical achievement that it really is, Bosh demanded a shot at “Mr. Wrestling” Kevin Steen, and the PWG Championship. Steen, who was defeated early in the tournament by AJ Styles, was excited by the prospect of facing the man who had defeated Styles to win the tournament, so the match was set. Dino then took the rest of the day off and went to the beach.
After Dino returned from the beach, he found a message waiting from Super Dragon Office, requesting another shot at Kevin Steen, in any type of match, be it for the title or not. After crunching the numbers, Dino saw that due to Dragon’s recent win/loss record, there was no way he could give him a shot at the PWG Championship. However, due to the absence of a clear number one contender in the Tag Team Division, Dragon’s overall win/loss record, and a deep seated fear of Super Dragon, Dino would allow Dragon to challenge 2 Skinny Black Guys (El Generico & Human Tornado) for the PWG Tag Team Championship with a partner of his choosing. Super Dragon Office sent word back to PWG that this was acceptable, and with both title matches out of the way, Dino went back to the beach.
From the beach, Dino sent word that “After School Special” will also feature:
– The Super Grudge Match between Scorpio Sky and Scott Lost! After making his long awaited return to PWG at the Battle of Los Angeles, Scorpio Sky made it clear that he would make Scott Lost pay for stealing Sky’s mask!
– Chris Hero vs. Joey Ryan! Still insisting that he is the best technical wrestler in the world today, Joey Ryan demanded that PWG provide him with an opponent so he could continue building his reputation. Now Joey got his wish, and his work cut out for him, as he faces Chris Hero!
– TJ Perkins vs. Alex Shelley! Injury kept TJ Perkins out Battle of Los Angeles, and cost him a chance to prove himself to PWG and its fans. Now he’s looking to make up for it, but this time, Alex Shelley is standing in his way!
Plus Disco Machine, Excalibur, Quicksilver, Phoenix Star, Zokre, Davey Richards, Hook Bomberry, Top Gun Talwar, Ronin & More!
