Newsflash

The PPV numbers are in for WrestleMania 24, and they are considerably lower than wwe and Floyd Mayweather expected. WrestleMania 24 drew 1,058,000 buys which works out to $23.8 million. This is less than last year’s 1,200,000 buys and $24.4 million for WrestleMania 23. The numbers were released this morning with WWE’s first quarter earnings report, which had the company listed as pulling in $19.5 million in net earnings over the first quarter of 2008.

IPW:UK vs. The World Supershow - March 15th, 2008, Broxbourne Civic Hall, Hoddesdon, Herts!

Doug Williams pinned Jack Storm with the Chaos Theory to advance to the last 16 of the British National Championship

Tommy End submitted Dave Moralez with a guillotine

The Kartel beat Marty Scurll and Nikko Brixton, who were teaming with no dissension.

"Zebra Kid just submitted Jimmy Jacobs with a cobra clutch after the zebra crossing. Very good match indeed."

This show just entered DVD purchase territory for me, I think...

Ring announcer for the night Dean Ayass started the second half of the show with an Atkins-esque rap...

El Generico beat Paul Robinson with a standard brainbuster in a short, solid match.

Martin Stone vs Jonny Storm vs Andy Simmonz for the title is up now. In a good continuity point, Dean Ayass hid like a bitch during Stone's entrance. In an un-Orpington-like situation, Andy Simmonz is working full blown heel...

Andy Boy Simmonz pinned Jonny Storm after a martinete to retain the title when Martin Stone was on the outside. Good match. Stone pushed Last Man Standing tomorrow night, but didn't mention Orpington...

Chris Hero vs Johnny Saint is being contested under World of Sport rules, and Hero is once again a good guy in IPW:

-Saint pinned Hero in round 2.
-Hero made Saint submit in round 4 with a Jim Breaks tribute
-Saint pins Hero in round 5 with a backslide

Main event was described as 'nice'.

All Star Wrestling Grimsby:

Biggest crowd here yet for All-Star, not quite a sell-out. They announced 1000, probably not far off that.

Referee for each match was Bryce Rimsburg.

1) Chad Collyer beat Jonny Storm with a texas cloverleaf.
2) Deano bt T.N.T. with a frog splash.
3) Robbie Brookside & Frankie Sloan bt Chris Hero & Chuck Taylor by pinfall after Brookside slammed Taylor off the top rope.
4) Marty Scrull bt The Flying Scotsman with a slingshot sunset flip.
5) Frankie Sloan won a 15 man battle royal, lastly eliminating Carl Oulette.

First time I've seen Jonny Storm at Grimsby, first time I've seen him for All-Star.
Go through any 2006 1PW topic and you'll see I'm the biggest Jonny Storm critic in the world when he works serious in front of a largely smart crowd. But in front of a younger audience that All-Star attracts and he is superb. Right from the entrance he got the crowd's attention completely. Holding up a sign an old woman brought saying SPANK THE YANK before giving her a kiss got some laughs, as did slamming Collyer on the floor before picking up a kid on the front row and bodyslamming him onto Collyer. That was followed by grabbing a foam finger from a fan and giving Collyer an eye poke with it. The crowd lapped it up, myself included.
Collyer's Rick Rude mannerisms got good heat and it looks like my 6 year old nephew will be doing the hip-swivel pose for some time to come.
Great match, most enjoyable I have seen this year.

Deano turned up a nobody but left the ring very popular. Aside from a botched headscissor he looked great. TNT is a very interesting looking fella. I was distracted by his boots which seemed a few sizes too big to the point where he was walking on the sides as opposed to the sole. Not a great match.

Hugely disappointed with the Liverpool Lads vs Hero & Taylor tag match. During the babyfaces entrance Hero just kept flipping over and through the ropes to the apron and back in many different ways. He also did a backflip off the top rope landing on his feet. Odd to see a heel doing these things without a hint of intended arrogance.
Grimsby's favourite wrestler Robbie Brookside only came in once early for an arm wringer, and again right at the end for the match ending slam on Taylor off the top rope. Though he showed no obvious signs of an injury I assumed he must have one.
I've only seen a handful of Hero matches from IWA:MS & ROH which left me unimpressed and that opinion hasn't changed following tonight. Taylor showed nothing also.

Following the interval they had what history has proved to be the worst possible match type in front of this audience: 2 inexperienced workers, both working babyface. My nephew asked me which was the goodie and which was the baddie and I heard kids around our section asking similar questions.
Neither man sucked, but with no crowd reactions it was never going to steal the show.

Then came the 15 man Royal Rumble, featuring:
- Jonny Storm
- Chad Collyer
- Deano
- Robbie Brookside
- Frankie Sloan
- Chris Hero
- Chuck Taylor
- Marty Scrull
- Flying Scotsman
- Skeletor
- Nick Aldis
- Carl Oulette
- Bad Bones
- Ben Levi
- some other guy who looked like the scotsman.

No El Generico, Dupree or Mason then. Decent brawl with the expected good crowd heat and a good finish.
The final four were Brookside, Sloan, Oulette and Hero. Brookside collapsed out of the blue holding his knee, it looked legit and neither heel touched him choosing to double team Sloan instead. When Robbie finally got upright he had a short brawl with Hero (while stood on the spot) before being eliminated (much to the crowd's suprise). Then it was the time-honoured 2 heels vs 1 babyface battle royal finish. After Hero got eliminated he kept coming back to interfere helping Oulette until Sloan ducked an Oulette running clothesline which took out Hero and Frankie dumped him over to win.
The crowd erupted which was great and everyone left very happy.

So two very good matches out of five - the opener and the main event - and a much more star-studded lineup than we are used to in Grimsby.

They will return on Friday November 28th.
