Friday the 13th House of Horror match:

SU/KA (Sunami & Kadin Anthony) def Creepshow (JD Horror & “The Metal Head Maniac” Sledge) when Sunami powerbombed Sledge onto a makeshift table with rat traps on it for the win. Afterwards, respect was shown by both teams but wasn’t able to hear the promo done by Sunami due to audio issues from Ustream.

 

Overall Vendetta Pro provided a great show this evening but disappointed in the Ustream feed with audio & video issues as well as that the camera was pointed at the ring only, couldn’t see anything if wrestlers went to the outside away from the camera shot. Even though this is the 1st time for me seeing Vendetta, I’ve known of the quality of matches & shows they’ve produced over the years & tonight I was pleased. As to my Matches of the Night, I felt that these matches shined this evening:

5 man elimination match: Dragon vs Misfit vs Bateman vs Slade vs Matthews

Tri-Force Championship: SoCal Crazy vs Shannon Ballard vs Little Cholo

Ladies battle royal/Hudson Envy vs Allie Parker

5 Man Match: This match was a great way to get the fans going for this show. Different varieties of styles in this match with all men meshing well with each other. Very entertaining & overall a solid match. My first time seeing Judah Matthews in the ring & he’s pretty good. The other competitors I’ve seen throughout many promotions in Southern California & with their different wrestling styles, they all put on a hell of a match..Congrats guys

Tri-Force Championship: Little Cholo & SoCal Crazy are no strangers to eachother with the same style of wrestling but adding another veteran in Shannon Ballard made this match very good. Solid ring work, high spots & a nice multi pin attempts by all gave the fans something to talk about. Another fantastic match by 3 great competitors. (a side note, nice to see Shannon Ballard wrestling again even though he’s a staple to Vendetta Pro, the last time I’ve seen him compete was in UPW along with his brother Shane many years ago.)

Ladies Battle Royal & Envy/Parker: First of all, cuddos to all the ladies who competed in the Battle Royal as everyone gave it their all in the match. I give Tommy Pure credit wanting to get it on with the ladies of Vendetta but it didn’t play out to what he wanted as the ladies ganged up on him. Dominate performance by Andrea the Giant but in the end Hudson Envy & Allie Parker outlasted everyone in the battle royal. As to the singles match, again it was a good showing by both ladies. Hudson Envy continues to show why she’s becoming a force to be reckon with as the self proclaim “Future” of women’s wrestling defeated the fan favorite Allie Parker. Parker had the determination to take everything from Envy in this match but in the end, dirty tactics were used to give the Tattooed Dynamo the Lunacy Cup. Good chemistry between the ladies & good fan reaction.

The next Vendetta Pro show will be on November 23rd in Simi Valley, Ca with Vintage Dragon vs “Rock of Love” Billy Blade for the Vendetta Heavyweight Championship.

Until next time, this is Mike Draven..signing off.
