October 20th 2009 BOUND BY TRADITION TAG TEAM CHAMPIONSHIP MATCH (C) BRODIE LEE & JIMMY JACOBS vs. EDDIE KINGSTON & ?? "With the Tag Champs and Kingston face to face in the middle of the ring, the lights go out for a moment and flicker back on to show.....  HOMOCIDE"to the roar of the crowd comes up from behind on Jacobs and drops him with his GRINGO KILLER Finisher! Brodie and Kingston start slugging it out. As the match continues it spills to the outside BUT the referee lets the battle continue to his credit. Jacobs was not right since getting attacked in the beginning of the match but he and Homocide went at it, in the end it was Brodie getting the better of Kingston despite being forced to wear the crimson mask he got the victory thanks to a third Brodie Bomb on Kingston in the match to retain the titles." BATTLE FOR TRADITION CHAMPIONSHIP TOURNAMENT
QUALIFYING MATCH ROB VAN DAM vs. CLAUDIO CASTAGNOLI "The Michigan native, RVD was clearly the fan favorite here and what a match against Claudio back and forth these two went with several near falls! Rob hit his 5-Star Frog Splash but it was not enough to keep the Swiss superman down! Larry Dallas seeing his big man was in trouble got up on the apron only to get kicked square in the mouth by Van Dam! Chris Hero wouyld then come down to ringside to check on Sweeney who was spitting out blood from his mouth.
Castagnolli would catch RVD coming off the ropes with a nasty European uppercut which led to launching him across the ring via his UFO quickly to his Ricola Bomb for the 3 count to qualify for the BATTLE FOR TRADITION Championship Tournament to the disapproval of the crowd." BATTLE FOR TRADITION CHAMPIONSHIP TOURNAMENT
QUALIFYING MATCH KONNAN (Masked) vs. JIMMY JACOBS "The international masked Mexican legend survived against Jimmy Jacobs who kept holding his neck throughout the match do to the tag match he had earlier in the night. Jacobs fought his ass off but Konnan was just to much for him in the end as the luchador would get his had raised via his NIAAGRA DRIVER Finisher" BATTLE FOR TRADITION TOURNAMENT LAST CHANCE BATTLE ROYAL Jacobs just laid motionless on the mat as the other participants made their way to the ring.... ORDER OF ELIMINATION:
1. Del Wilkes ELIMINATED BY Brodie Lee 2. Jimmy Jacobs ELIMINATED BY Rob Van Dam 3. Chris Candido ELIMINATED BY Brent Albright 4. Rob Van Dam ELIMINATED BY Brodie Lee 5.

NIGHT ONE
Crunchy's Bar
East Lansing, Michigan
November 21st 2009 BATTLE FOR TRADITION CHAMPIONSHIP TOURNAMENT
OPENING ROUND RESULTS REDD DOGG (Jazz in his corner) vs. ANGELO MOSCA (Tyson Dux & Josh Alexander in his corner) "Jazz was certainly neutralized on the outside with Dux and Alexander there to counter anything she might try to give an advantage to her husband, inside the ring it was a smash mouth opening match to the Tournament with both men bloody and bruised in the end we thought thanks to a nasty elbow deop from the top rope onto Redd Doggs head that Mosca would get the three count HOWEVER the official found out that the elbow pad had a metal plate in it!
He then ordered Mosca to remove it and throw out both Alexander and Dux from ringside! The match continued, both men going back and forth until Jazz attempted to interfere, and she got caught by the official who then ordered her to leave ringside! The match continued when Mosca took Redd Dogg headfirst into the post busting him open! This brought out DEL WILKES to ringside as he began shouting with the official and his rival Mosca.
Redd Dogg recovered and stepped in front of Wilkes and asking him get the hell out of my match! Mosca then caught Dogg with a vicious shoulder tackle from the ring apron! and took him out thanks to his SLEEPER HOLD Finisher to advance in the Tournament!" CLAUDIO CASTAGNOLLI (Larry Sweney in his corner) vs. STEVE CORINO "A match that nearly went the full 30-minute time limit but in the end after somehow kicking out of the RICOLA BOMB Finisher, it was the King of Old School that got the very hard-earned victory after hitting his OLD SCHOOL EXPULSION finisher!" EDDIE KINGSTON vs KONNAN
"Kingston came right at the lucha legend with a straightforward street fight mentality even to the point of trying to rip the mask off Konnan's face! The AAA star would indeed fight back in and out of the ring and nearly got the win via a power bomb turned into a jack knife! Eddie barely escaped and with a busted nose and all rolled out of the ring and dared his opponent to continue the fight! Konnan had no problem with that request until Eddie posted his masked oppenent right into the steel then tossed him back in the ring and connected with a vicious half nelson suplex for the three count to advance" ROAD WARRIOR ANIMAL (Paul Ellering in his corner) vs. CHRIS HERO (Larry Sweeney in his corner)
"Right out of the gate the two corner men Ellering and Sweeney got into it outside of the ring to the fans delight! Hero thought he had the number of Animal again after he connected with his hangman's elbow but Animal continued the fight! As one half of the Road Warriors thought he had the victory after a nasty shoulder breaker from the second rope connected but while the official was distracted by Ellering and Sweeneny AGAIN Claudio Castagnoli would storm to ringside and smash Animal with a European uppercut which led right to the ROARING ELBOW Finisher by Hero! Claudio would sprint to the back as the official turned around and counted Animal down for the three count!" |

NIGHT TWO
Crunchy's Bar
East Lansing, Michigan
November 22nd 2009 BATTLE FOR TRADITION CHAMPIONSHIP TOURNAMENT
SEMI-FINALS
CHRIS HERO (Larry Sweeney in his corner) vs. EDDIE KINGSTON "The Young brash and cocky Knock-Out kid got a lesson in this match, despite showing how much punishment he could take and the expertise of Larry Sweeney being at ringside, there were moments in this match where Kingston beat the holy hell out of Hero and the official actually stopped the match because Chris legit got knocked out after feeling a second BACK FIST OF THE FUTURE Finisher of the match to give Eddie his ticket to the finals. Officials from the back as well as medical staff tended to Hero in the ring for a few moments and helped him to the back." BATTLE FOR TRADITION CHAMPIONSHIP TOURNAMENT
SEMI-FINALS
STEVE CORINO vs. ANGELO MOSCA "An absolute slugfest, it should be noted that Mosca told stable mates Tyson Dux and Josh Alexander to stay in the back during this match and you wonder if that was such a good idea as Corino would eventually get his hand raised in victory after a wild brawl outside of the ring that would end up around the bar! The official finally got control and gotr the two back in the ring when Corino hit a low blow as Mosca was getting back into the ring right into a DDT that spiked Angelo on the top of his head putting him down for the three count as it will be Corino vs. Kingston in the FINALS!" BOUND BY TRADITION TAG TEAM CHAMPIONSHIP MATCH
(C) BRODIE LEE & JIMMY JACOBS vs. BLOOD, SWEAT & BEERS (The Sandman & Jim Duggan) "This was a complete bloody brawl with three of the four men busted open by the end of the match (Duggan being the exception) The Glenn Falls native thought he had the match and the titles won after his football tackle took out Jacobs! The zombie princess barely escaped the three count and after Brodie Lee smashed The Sandman into the wall in the back of Crunchy's he caught Duggan with a BIG BOOT to the face after smashing him with a chair to get the three count to retain the titles for his team!" BATTLE FOR TRADITION CHAMPIONSHIP TOURNAMENT
FINALS STEVE CORINO vs. EDDIE KINGSTON
"One of the most hard hitting and stiff matches you will ever see, strong style no question, add in an element of street fight tough and this was the finals of this tournament to a tee. Corino (bloody about halfway through the match) finally connected with his OLD SCHOOL EXPULSION Finisher but Kingston got his foot on the bottom rope right before the officials hand came down for three!
Kingston fought back with fists and kicks followed by a backdrop driver not once, not twice, but three times only to get a 2 count as Corino would kick out and somehow get back to his feet BUT Kingston caught him with a lariat! turning the King of Old School inside out to give Kingston the three count and giving the Mad King the title!" BATTLE FOR TRADITION CHAMPION  EDDIE KINGSTON*AFTER THE MATCH, EDDIE WAS PRESENTED HIS CHAMPIONSHIP, AS A BLOODY CORINO GOT BACK TO HIS FEET, IT LOOKED AS THOUGH HE WAS GOING DEMAND ANOTHER MATCH...HOWEVER HOMICIDE CAME INTO THE RING AND DROPPED CORINO VIA HIS GRINGO KILLAH FINISHER! THEN TOSSED CORINO OUT OF THE RING! HOMICIDE THEN HUGGED EDDIE! THEN TOLD HIM NOT TO WASTE ANYMORE TIME WITH THAT BUM CORINO BECAUSE HE WAS COMING FOR THAT TITLE NEXT! THE TWO WENT NOSE TO NOSE TO END THE SHOW!* -END (11) |
