We are now living in the Era of Savage, and last night was ALPHA 17: The First Defense! Who was handpicked by King of Savage John Hurst to challenge him for the belt? Did somebody pull double duty? Maybe an outside name? And how did his nemesis Alexander Shaw take it, given that Hurst guaranteed that neither Shaw nor his compatriots would ever get a shot at the King of Savage title? The answer to all these questions can only be found in the show itself! If you missed it, don't fret! Just order it on-demand by calling 1 800 MOD ERNV or visiting www.modernvision.com NOW! But, as always, our recap is provided by the one and only Charlie Reager! [align=center] ![]() alpha.nearzone.com ALPHA 17 The First Defense 8.14.10[/align] There were about 300 people in attendance tonight. Surf's Up!: Surf Ninjas (Byron Maloka and Brian Jackson) vs. Javier Sikkan & Maurice Thompson Jackson and Thompson started things off. They locked up and Thompson got the better end of it with an armbar, but Jackson freed himself after some right hands. The match went back and forth that way, Thompson matching his speed and technicality against Jackson's endurance and wild brawling. Thompson began to pull the upper hand, throwing a series of dropkicks that took Jackson off his feet and cinching in a rear chinlock. Thompson and Sikkan began to exchange tags, focusing their attention on Jackson's ribs. Finally, Jackson managed to tag out to Maloka, who took Sikkan down with a slingshot crossbody! Thompson threw a spinning wheel kick, but Maloka ducked it, Pele kick landed flush! Sikkan made to intervene, but Jackson yanked on Sikkan's hair and sent him to the mat! Maloka immediately increased the pace of the match, but Sikkan kept up, the two speed demons trading holds and zipping across the ring almost faster than could be followed. Time proved to be Maloka's ally, for as Sikkan began to falter, Maloka picked up the slack. The Ninjas tagged in and out, giving Jackson the opportunity to throw around some heavier moves between Maloka's nimble attacks. Maloka and Sikkan traded near-falls, each one chaining right into the next. Finally, both men escaped, Sikkan to his feet first, BUZZSAW KICK! Tag out to Thompson, whipped Maloka into the ropes, TANDEM DROPKICKS! 2.7 -- Jackson saved! Thompson was proactive in asserting himself, working over Maloka's legs in an effort to slow the Danger Kid down. Maloka fought back, and though he was feeling a little pain now, he managed to increase the pace once again. Thompson responded by flooring Maloka and tagging in Sikkan. Thompson and Sikkan resumed their tag work, slowing Maloka further with wishbone splits and kneedrops to the knee. Thompson hit the ropes, caught Maloka and DRILLED HIM WITH A DDT! 2.9 -- Jackson broke it up! Sikkan into the ring, but Jackson sent him through the ropes! Jackson begged for the tag, got it! Thompson and Jackson traded blows, TOMAHAWK CHOP! Dropkick -- blocked! Jackson with a desperate punt to Thompson's mouth! THA WRECKA! Sikkan tried to get back into the ring but Maloka cut him off with a somersault senton off the apron! 3! Winner: Surf Ninjas (Byron Maloka and Brian Jackson+) by pinfall (Tha Wrecka on Thompson, 14:36) The Royal Lancers appeared after the match, Jay Mathers with a microphone and Stephen with a cricket bat. Jay made fun of the Ninjas' team name, then congratulated them on winning "without any of that damage causing monkeyish bullshit you're so fond of." He said that it didn't matter, though, because everybody knew that next week Maloka would be back to creating problems for the Casino, and the Lancers couldn't allow that. The Lancers advanced on the ring, surrounding it. Jay jumped up on the apron and Jackson attacked him. Maloka turned, but Steve clipped him in the shins with the cricket bat! Steve pulled Maloka out of the ring, attacking his legs viciously with the bat. Jay threw Jackson onto the floor, ELBOW DROP OFF THE APRON! The Lancers gloated over the fallen bodies of the Ninjas. Exceeding Expectations: Jake Landell vs. Kevin Alloy The size difference was overwhelming to Landell from the start of this match, Alloy daring him throw the first punch. Landell looked for openings, actively trying to get ahold of one of Alloy's legs, but came up with nothing. After some taunting, Alloy lifted his hand to signal for the test of strength. Landell tentatively locked his hand with Alloy's. Kick to the gut! Alloy lured Landell in for a cheap shot to the stomach, followed by a stiff short arm lariat. The next several minutes of the match brought more of the same: Alloy overpowering and bullying the much smaller Landell. Alloy took special focus to work the body, leaving Landell grounded and slow, unable to utilize any of his strengths. Any time Landell managed to score any shots, Alloy would go back to the body and slow him down again. The big man finished off the body work with an avalanche splash followed by a series of clubbing punches while Landell was pressed into the corner. Alloy signaled that the fight was about to be over and set Landell up for the Last Trip to Tulsa! Landell slid out of the suplex set-up and grabbed Alloy in a back waistlock. Landell managed to push Alloy into the ropes for the O'Connor roll! Alloy hung on to the ropes! Alloy threw a solid elbow to Landell's face that broke the back waistlock. After stumbling back a few steps, Landell met the charging Alloy with some hard shots to the stomach and face, none of which seemed to bother Alloy. Alloy planted a knee into Landell's ribs and hit him with a bell clap that rocked him back against the ropes. Landell bounced back from the ropes, bloody-nosed and beaten, then Alloy grabbed both sides of his head before driving into his skull with a vicious headbutt that sent Landell crumbling to the mat! Alloy picked Landell up and, not bothering to call for it this time, slammed him to the mat with the Last Trip to Tulsa! 3! Winner: Kevin Alloy by pinfall (Last Trip to Tulsa, 7:23) A Shot at Greatness: Barron Ulysses vs. Lex Fox Fox seemed apprehensive to start, but Ulysses was content to wait for Fox to make the first move. Fox darted in, Ulysses whiffed a lariat, Fox LIFTED FOR THE GERMAN -- actually, no he didn't! He couldn't move Ulysses! Stiff back elbow sent Fox stumbling into the corner in disbelief! Fox resumed his circling, having to deal with Ulysses beating his chest and roaring. Fox inexplicably offered a test-of-strength knucklelock. Ulysses acquiesced, first with his right, but Fox immediately kicked Ulysses in the knee! Fox only gloated for a second as Ulysses immediately twisted the wrist, making Fox stand up on his toes in pain! Ulysses seized Fox by the throat as well and hurled him back into the corner, LARIAT -- Fox barely out of the way! Ulysses didn't stop his rampage, cornering Fox and clubbing him against the ropes with heavy lefts and rights, forcing Fox to cover up. The ref frantically tried to separate them. Fox thumbed Ulysses's eye! He shoved the ref aside, BOOT LOADER! 2.5 -- Ulysses pressed Fox off of him! Now with some momentum, Fox was loathed to give it up, peppering the rising Ulysses with kicks and punches. He hit the ropes and dropkicked Ulysses in the knee, making sure Ulysses wouldn't stand for too long. Fox locked in a rear chinlock, cinching it in as hard as possible, but it wasn't enough to stop Ulysses from getting up, even with Fox's weight on his back! Ulysses smashed Fox back into the buckles. LARIAT -- Fox evaded again! Fox bailed to the floor to buy himself some time, looking up at Ulysses and trying to figure out what to do. He eventually rolled back into the ring, but now Ulysses was in attack mode, charging across to deliver punishment. Fox managed to keep his distance for the most part, finding shots wherever he could and keeping Ulysses off balance. Fox hit the ropes, LARIAT TOOK FOX'S HEAD OFF! Ulysses stared down at Fox for a few seconds, full of anger. He pulled Fox up by the hair and swung him onto his shoulder, CRUSH RUSH! 3! Winner: Barron Ulysses by pinfall (Crush Rush pin, 12:35) John Hurst made his way to the ring with the King of Savage belt over his shoulder. He said that people have been talking behind their backs about how he won the belt, saying he isn't going to be a fighting champion. Tonight, he would prove them all wrong by putting his belt up against a tough competitor who, unlike all Hurst's critics like Alexander Shaw, had not been beaten by Hurst already. He then introduced the challenger... Doug Chase? Championship Challenge: John Hurst© vs. Doug Chase king of savage title match. no rope breaks, no holds barred, 20 count on the floor. Hurst arrogantly challenged Chase to start things off. Chase was apprehensive at first, but he eventually stepped up to the plate with some right hands that took Hurst off balance. He shot Hurst into the ropes and caught him with a shoulder block. 2! Chase brought Hurst back to his feet, Hurst slammed his fingers into Chase's throat! Chase staggered back and Hurst followed in, choking him and pushing him into the corner. Chase fought back, managing to break free, but Hurst kneed Chase in the stomach and reapplied the choke. Chase grabbed the ropes, not fully aware that there are no rope breaks in a KoS match. Eventually, Chase's energy began to flag. Hurst quickly hooked Chase up and DRILLED HIM WITH A BRAINBUSTER! The referee checked Chase out... out cold! Winner: John Hurst by knockout (brainbuster, 3:40) [1º defense] Hurst gloated after his successful defense until D.R. Kongo made his appearance, climbing into the ring. Kongo said that Hurst made him (Kongo) sick. If Hurst was such a great champion, why was he fighting men who have not logged a single win in their ALPHA careers? Kongo said that LFC was corrupt and needed to be torn down and rebuilt. And if none of the LIONS in the back could see that, then they were blind, stupid, and weak. That brought out Nathan Rageous and Josh Cameron. When Kongo turned to fight them, Hurst clobbered Kongo over the head with the title! The three LIONS beat down on Kongo until Alexander Shaw ran down! Shaw hurled Rageous out of the ring, then traded shots with Hurst, clotheslining him over the top! Cameron grabbed Shaw in a rear waistlock and tried for the German, but Shaw hung onto the ropes. Kongo pulled Cameron away, STRONG KICK! Cameron rolled out of the ring. Shaw and Kongo dared the LIONS to get back in. Cameron and Rageous were cautious, but they climbed on the apron and Rageous got into the ring. Kongo got out onto the apron. Hurst headed to the back, shaking his head. Furious Firefight: LIONS F.C. (Nathan Rageous and Josh Cameron) vs. Alexander Shaw & D.R. Kongo Shaw went on the attack immediately, but Rageous was cautious, keeping his distance and minimizing the damage he took. Rageous tried to tag out to Cameron, but Shaw whipped him into the Shaw/Kongo corner and charged in with an elbow shot. Shaw and Kongo cut the ring in half, focusing their attack on Rageous's neck. Cameron grew more agitated with every passing second. Shaw landed a vertical suplex and covered. Cameron entered the ring, but Kongo was there immediately to block. 2.5! Cameron and Kongo slugged it out, eventually tumbling out onto the floor. Inside the ring, Shaw continued his control of the bout, still working on Rageous's neck. Rageous began to struggle, fighting to his feet and muscling Shaw over for a belly-to-belly suplex. Rageous waited for Shaw to get up, hit the ropes, SPEAR -- sidestepped! Cameron took control on the floor, eventually throwing Kongo shoulder-first into the barricade. Shaw dropped Rageous with a reverse DDT. 2.5 -- broken up by Cameron! Cameron assaulted Shaw until the referee made him get out of the ring, then waited for the tag, which he got. Tandem suplex on Shaw! They went for a second, but Kongo got into the ring to stop them. Cameron and Rageous ejected Kongo and Rageous headed outside to deal with Kongo further, sending Kongo into the barricades repeatedly. Cameron controlled things on the inside, taking Shaw to the mat repeatedly and barely giving him a chance to breathe. Cameron attempted to gator roll choke repeatedly, but Shaw always managed to escape. Cameron looked for the osoto gari, but Shaw elbowed his way out. Elbow to the face! Another! ROARING ELBOW -- Cameron ducked! DUMPED HIM ON HIS HEAD WITH A GERMAN! 2.8! Leaving Kongo laid out on the floor, Rageous got back up on the apron and Cameron tagged him in. They used their opportunity to the fullest, maximizing their team time and beating the hell out of Shaw at every opportunity. They tried for nearfalls frequently, but could never put him down. Shot Shaw into the ropes, TANDEM SPINEBUSTER! Rageous covered! Kongo scrambled onto the apron! 2.9 -- KONGO WITH THE SPRINGBOARD LEGDROP! Rageous grabbed his neck, rolling around in pain. Cameron went after Kongo, following him outside the ring, ATE A SUPERKICK! That took a lot out of Kongo apparently and everybody's down. Rageous got up first, shakily, though he still managed to pull Shaw up and set him into the corner. He hit a series of shoulder thrusts, then went to the opposite corner and measured Shaw up. CHARGING SPEAR -- Shaw stumbled out of the way, Rageous stopped himself before he hit the post! Shaw leapt for the tag, but Kongo wasn't there yet! Rageous pulled Shaw back, locking on a grounded bear hug. After a battle, Shaw got to the ropes, and Rageous had to take a breather. Rageous made it to his corner and tagged Cameron in. They whipped Shaw into the ropes, TANDEM SPINEBUSTER -- Shaw slid underneath! Hot tag out to Kongo! Springboard kick took Cameron down! Rageous caught Kongo's next kick, STRONG KICK! Rageous went down, but Kongo couldn't capitalize! Cameron threw Kongo head-first into the turnbuckle! The referee ushered Cameron out of the ring. Rageous groggily got to his feet and made a cut-throat motion. POWERBOMB -- HURACANRANA! Cameron came for the save, Shaw blocked but couldn't stop him! 3! A split-second too late! Winner: Alexander Shaw & D.R. Kongo+ (huracanrana pin on Rageous, 21:18) Shaw threw a STIFF elbow to the back of Cameron's head! Hurst and Rodrigo De La Zed charged down to the ring, taking the fight to Shaw and Kongo. The two sides brawled, but Hurst and DLZ were well-rested and got the upper hand quickly. Shaw and Kongo tried to bail, but Hurst and DLZ followed, chasing them through the crowd! credit: landell v. alloy: josh |
