LUCHA DE CARNAVAL – VARIETY VILLAGE – JANUARY 29TH 2017

THE UNDERCARD

Montreal’s Michel Plante took on The Medival Warrior in the opening match.

Space Monkey takes out Sebastian Suave and Hacker Scotty O’Shea with a flying moonsault from the top rope (pictured). Alexia Nicole, Artimus and Jason Cade also participated in the lucha rules 6 way scramble match, which Hogtown officials say they were watching very closely. The Hacker came out with the win.

FIGHT FOR HONOR

Next, Warhed made his way out with Fight or Flight to take on John Greed and his clown posse. After Greed declared war on LIT6, Warhed was the first man to defend the promotions honor, saving newly crowned Premier Champion Desean Pratt from a beatdown. Unfortunately, Greed and his goons came out with the win.

CALLIHAN DEATH MACHINE

One of the main attractions of the evening was indie sensation Sami Callihan. Former Premier champion Carter Mason stepped up and challenged The Callihan Death Machine, looking to secure himself a rematch for the gold.

HOGTOWN PRO TITLE MATCH

Speedball Mike Bailey and Goliath Ayala head down to the ring for a battle to decide who is the Commonwealth Openweight Champion

It didn’t take long for things to get heated as both men came out of the gate hard and fast.

Before long though, Ayala slowed the paced down with chokes and power offence.

But a game Bailey came back with hard kicks and high flying manoeuvres.

In the end run, Bailey’s patented shooting star double knees put away Ayala and Hogtown Pro crowned a new Commonwealth Openweight Champion.

LUCHA CHAMPIONS PREVAIL

The SSB retained the Royal Canadian Tag Team Championships in a three-way dance.

Premier Champion Desean Pratt, formerly Amasis, made his first defence without his mask against Josh Alexander.
