Tennessee Independent Wrestling Federation results for Saturday 7-12-08 at the TIWF Showplex Arena- Trenton, Tn.

The beginning of the show saw Commissioner Jon Seymour come to the ring. He announced that Hotrod would not be in attendance tonight because of the beating & humiliation he took last week from Wildside & Waycool. Jon said that Hotrod wasn’t doing so well and that he was in a hospital in Memphis. Jon also announced that Drew Magruder would be absent as well. Drew was on the fundraising campaign trail for Ravishing Randy’s Presidential bid. Jon said that he would be the announcer for the evening and would be joined by a commentator sent by the home office. At that time Wildside’s music plays and he comes dressed like an announcer … all of this much to the dismay of Jon.

After humble beginnings, Ring Of Honor Wrestling quickly escalated into what many people believe to be the best wrestling promotion alive today. Breeding their own young crop of talent, and focusing on the in-ring work more-so then the glitz and glamour that other major companies such as the WWE focus on, ROH is the definition of Indy Wrestling.

When ECW went out of business, RF Video (a wrestling video distribution company) needed a promotion that could fill the huge void. ROH was established and, following ECW's footsteps, it offered a fresh new look on the pro-wrestling scene. It's first ever show, titled 'The Era Of Honor Begins', in 2002 became an instant classic, and some of the matches featured at the event will be remembered by wrestling fans forever.

Some of the biggest names in wrestling today were brought up in ROH. Guys like CM Punk, Samoa Joe, AJ Styles and Christopher Daniels (aka Curry Man) all have roots leading back to the early days of ROH. And despite the fact that some of the bigger names have moved on to other promotions, ROH continues to breed their own talent. Guys like Bryan Danielson, Nigel McGuinness, and Tyler Black now grace the red and black ring, and are regarded as some of the best entertainers in the world.

So finally, after five years since it's inaugural debut, ROH will make it's Canadian debut when it hits Toronto on July 25th. The main event will feature the current reigning ROH World Champion Nigel McGuinness defending against Canadian favorite Kevin Steen. A second show is planned for Montreal on November 5th. Both shows promise to be slobberknockers.

ROH Wrestling is regarded by many people to be the best pro-wrestling company going on today, and it will just be a matter of time until ROH will be able to challenge WWE and TNA. History will be made when ROH finally comes to Canada. Don't miss out.

Skandor Akbar • Mid-South Wrestling

Then: Akbar (alias Jim Wehba) was the baddest cad around when Mid-South Wrestling ruled these parts. He was a good guy when he launched his career in the 1960s, then he betrayed Danny Hodge and became public enemy No. 1, a flame-throwing “sheik” who played the villain’s role to the hilt.

Being a heel was serious business. Rabid fans cut Akbar’s car tires and broke his windows. Before a New Orleans gig, he received so many death threats that he wore a bulletproof vest when entering the Superdome. “The last 45 years, I got blamed for everything that happened in the Middle East,” said Akbar, who is of Syrian and Lebanese descent.

Now: Akbar, 73, said he loved living in Tulsa at various times during his career as a wrestler and manager. He settled in his home state of Texas (he lives in Garland) and has trained budding wrestlers.

Nostalgia is in vogue, so Akbar often gets asked to make public appearances. Said Akbar, “A lot of people tell me ‘I hated you so much, but I loved every minute of it.’ÿ” Akbar said he never cussed at fans or spat at them when leaving arenas. He just ignored them. That just made them madder.

Akbar doesn’t think he is a bad guy in real life and indicated he has a soft spot for animals. He wonders what fans would think if they could hear him sweet-talk his critters, including Brigitte (named after Bardot), a dog who will be 16 in August. He has had better luck with dogs than wives. One wife died, and he has been through a few others. “This business, it wasn’t really good on marriages.”

But Akbar said he owes everything he has to the wrestling biz. Asked whether it was fun to be a bad guy, Akbar said: “You can get away with a lot of things. The good guys, a lot of them really didn’t like to sign all those autographs. I teased them about it.” Akbar said he just tore up anything fans wanted him to sign. What else would you expect from a good bad guy?

USWA

The title change from two weeks back where Jerry Lawler beat Eric Embry for the Texas title has been overruled since the win was gained with outside interference so Embry holds both the Texas and the Southern titles. They are recognizing Embry's win over Jeff Jarrett on 5/3 in Dallas in both Texas and Tennessee, although in Tennessee they said the match took place on 5/10 in Dallas.

What did take place on 5/10 in Dallas before 391 fans saw Danny Davis beat El Gran Colosso to keep the lightheavyweight title, Chaz the Wild thing (son of Tug Taylor, a prelim wrestler out of Houston who drove the women crazy) beat Dr. Foo (a Killer Brooks trainee), Little Tokyo pinned Karate Kid when Tojo Yamamoto threw salt in Karate Kid's eyes, Bill Dundee pinned Boogie Man, Terry Daniels pinned Dog of War, Gary Young pinned El Grande Pistolero, Jeff Jarrett & Robert Fuller beat Embry & Tom Prichard via DQ in a major bloodbath which ended when the heels handcuffed Jarrett to the ring ropes and pulled out a plastic bag and tried to suffocate Fuller. In this case, they went all the way as they left Fuller laying there and Gary Young had to administer CPR to bring him back to life. The main event was a Texas Roundup Battle Royal (similar to Royal Rumble rules) with Dundee throwing out Pistolero & Dog of War to win. The revived Fuller managed to work the Battle Royal but he, Jarrett, Embry and Prichard all brawled out of the Battle Royal and into the dressing room.

Prichard had one of the best lines on TV here in a while when he was talking about the midget Little Tokyo. Prichard said he remembered that he held the world midgets title for a long time and he remembered when he won the title from Bill Dundee.

Gary Hart's promotion has officially folded and its television show in Texas has been replaced by the LPWA.

The 5/3 show, which drew 918 fans at $5 per head, got some of the local wrestlers upset because most of the payoffs were in the $40 range. At least one wrestler (Terry Garvin), quit over his payoff.

They did a spot show on 5/11 in Magnolia, TX before 100 fans as Prichard beat Jarrett when Boogie Man interfered but in the main event Jarrett & Davis & Colosso beat Prichard & Boogie Man & Black Angel (Tony Falk under a hood). Downtown Bruno worked as the referee on the show.

5/17 in Dallas has Sweet Georgia Brown vs. Madeline Collins for the Texas women's title, Davis & Karate Kid vs. Tojo & Little Tokyo (this will be the first mixed match in which the regular wrestlers and the midget wrestlers are the same size), Texas Hangmen defend the USWA tag titles against Daniels & Young, Dundee vs. Boogie Man and in a tornado match, Jarrett & Fuller vs. Embry & Prichard.

5/6 in Memphis drew 700 as Little Tokyo beat Karate Kid when Tojo threw salt, Dundee beat Hangman Killer to earn five minutes with his son J.C. Ice Baby and Dundee was beating on him for three minutes when Ice Baby ran off for the count out, Steve Keirn pinned Jeff Gaylord, Fuller & Davis beat Hangman Psycho & Prichard but after the match both Hangmen hung Fuller over the top rope, Eddie Gilbert beat Embry via DQ in a match where both men wore gloves with barbed wire on them when Tony Anthony interfered and attacked Gilbert (which at least should guarantee one good match per show), Keirn beat Embry via DQ in a Lights Out match and Keirn & Fuller & Dundee & Davis beat Embry & Prichard & Hangmen.

5/13 in Memphis has Karate Kid & Davis vs. Tojo & Tokyo, Gilbert vs. Anthony, Uptown Bruno vs. Miss Texas (Sweet Georgia Brown), Keirn vs. Prichard with no DQ and no time limit, Hangmen defend against Jarrett & Fuller, Embry defends the Southern title against Dundee. Bruno-Texas, Keirn-Prichard, Hangmen vs. Jarrett & Fuller and Embry-Dundee are all loser leaves the USWA for 30 days. The guess from here is that Bruno will lose, since Georgia Brown has just started as Embry's valet, Keirn will lose, Hangmen will lose and somehow Dundee will lose but turn heel and get to stay.

Dundee said he had a long talk during the week with his son and would have a major announcement on television on 5/19. He's also changed his wardrobe to give one the impression he's about to turn.

Embry claimed on television that he's retired Jerry Lawler. He then went on about their being five legends in the Memphis area, Jackie Fargo, who he claims to have run out, Jerry Jarrett, who is retired, Tojo, who is his manager, Lawler, who he claims to have ran out, and now he's going to finish things off by finishing up Dundee.

On television on 5/12, Gilbert & Ben Jordan & Karate Kid beat Hangmen & Little Tokyo when Anthony interfered for the DQ.

They ran two angles involving Bruno and Georgia Brown. In the first one, Bruno said he was going to show Georgia Brown how they treat women where he comes from, and instead of punching her, he kissed her (think about that one for a while). Later in the show Brown threw Bruno over a desk and hit him with the ring bell.
