What?
Spunk Pro has returned, this time possibly for good. Possibly. Regardless, Spunk Pro has picked up right where it left off, only with a revised roster featuring new talent and old talent.
In the opener, two of Spunk's newest trainees, Ichi and Prince, squared off against Tommy Fiero's new bandmates in Ripper Dane and Wolf Reaper. Fiero, fueled by botox and the quest to never let the 80's die has started a new band, much in the vein of late era Motley Crue, and he's using his guitar player (Dane) and drummer (Reaper) as his henchmen. Sadly, the fell to the duo of Ichi and Prince, with Prince using his Deadlbomb (Wildbomb) to finish off the guitarist in 20 minutes.
In a mix of old with new, perhaps Spunk Pro's oldest active competitor, Paddy Baker, still refuses to quit and went up against a raucous, hard knocks New Jersey native in Trent Bradford in a match that saw a more refined, mat-based style clash with a more brutal, hardcore style. While Baker did hit a double arm suplex and his patented reverse piledriver, Bradford rallied back, leading to a tense exchange at the end, which Bradford sealed with a rolling lariat for the win.
In another set of debuts, former Turkish Special Forces Hakim Tuul took on Sean Gabriel-trainee Drew Adams in a smash-mouth sprint of a match that featured the two men elbowing each other to death. The boy from Brighton looked to lock in his Brighton Stretch (Fishook Sleeper) only for Tuul to make it to the ropes, then follow up with a pair of rolling elbows, then a running elbow smash to put the younger man away.
A literal garbageman, known as Deplorable Bull, made his way out next and cut a MAGA-chud interview decrying "illegals" which brought out Mexican living legend Fuerte Guerrero, who was looking to prove that Bull and his awful world views have no place in this world. Well, he forgot that it is 2017, which meant that Bull pulled out every cheap trick in the book, smashing the Mexican legend repeatedly with a baseball bat before finally locking in a Stretch Plum, crying about "triggering libs" by pantomiming anal sex, dry humping him only for the legend to pass out in the hold.
The co-main event saw the debut of Caribbean rising star Rocky Baez against well-established Spunk Pro luchador rudo, Zodiak. Zodiak tried everything in his bag of tricks, including his green mist, but Baez was game, finally getting the leader of OdZ up and slamming him down with the Caribbean Razor, knocking the Spunk Pro legend out. That's how you make a debut.
Old feuds die hard, but sometimes old enemies can find common ground. On this, the relaunch of Spunk Pro, Spunk teamed up with old rival Sean Gabriel to take on the ever-deadly team of Dan Sommers and Big T. Sommers, the last Spunk Pro Champion, was in as good of shape as ever, while Big T looked a little heavier than usual, but was still as brutal as ever. Spunk spent most of the match in the ring while the heels worked him over before Big T went for a surprise chokeslam in the center of the ring and knocked Spunk out cold. Gabriel, disgusted, stormed out of the ringside area while the heels celebrated their victory over the promotion's owner.

Spunk Pro new.Day.2
Spunk Pro(~!) has returned yet again. Did you see a post about new rules or anything? Me neither. Anyway. Tonight we are promised more insanity and stuff that will most likely both confuse and entertain the masses. Can you blame them? La Cosa Nostra was, well, displeased with Paradigm's subsequent defection and then teaming with arch-rival Paddy Baker to defeat the Tag Team Champions in a tag team match to earn Paradigm's freedom. Now that they've lost on in the ranks, they've decided to bring in Zannino's rather large cousin, Big Lou. To say he earned his nickname is beside the point, as he is huge. Tall, tattooed and really put a beating on poor Paradigm, who was maybe half this giant's size. Paradigm put up a valiant effort and after being flattened by a chokeslam was helped to the back by Paddy Baker who explained to him that "beatings happen, it is how you prepare for the next that matters."
As what happens after a long layoff, we had yet another debut on Spunk Pro television. You telling me that our tag division lacks depth? Pshaw, the NOLA tag team of Big Pimpin' and Slick Rodney made their debut against the gatekeeper team of Strike Force. Strike Force clashed pretty big time with the NOLA boys, who were all about brute force. The match ended with a count out when Slick Rodney got distracted beating the snot out of Wolf on the outside of the ring and Lee Stone, the legal man, was able to slip back inside.
With the main event looking to be Ken Shields vs. Lester Bourbon, well, you knew something was gonna happen. Spunk came out with a contract which was delivered to him via courier for his Heayweight Title shot. He called out Sommers, citing that Spunk Pro has never had somebody forced to sign a contract for a Heavyweight title match before, as he should know, being a multi-time champion himself. He claimed that Sommers was a coward and wouldn't face him tonight even if he did sign some contract. This of course brings out the champion, with manager Seamus McFadden and some of McFadden's boys, Big T and Havok in tow. McFadden proclaimed that Sommers feared no man, but that Spunk fears order and legally binding contracts that he can't weasel out of. As you can imagine, this made no sense to anybody, but we continue, as McFadden says that Sommers will of course accept his challenge for tonight... In a 6-man tag team match, if he can find the partners.
They climb into the ring now, staring him down, McFadden laughing, claiming that nobody will want to help Spunk, especially after beating the snot out of YUSUKE, who was his friend, on our previous show. Apparently YUSUKE isn't too smart, or has a different set of values and honor that McFadden doesn't understand, as he comes down to ringside and stands next to Spunk, saying that he still has much to learn from Spunk (but not that much). This still leaves it 3 on 2, which against these men, isn't exactly the best odds. What happened next, nobody expected, well, the part where all 3 men attacked the 2 was, right? Because that was exactly what happened. Spunk Pro is the home of wild brawls, afterall. But who came out to save them was the surprise, as it was Bobo Gomez who came in and he came in throwing fucking bombs, and it looks like we'll have yet another classic Spunk Pro 6-man Elimination match tonight!
The MPLL standout tag team of Bromista and Camillo del Noche took on VIO-Gun members AKAHIRA and Shogo Otsuka. Shogo, still sore over not getting his title shot against DEMOS and, well, getting the shit beaten out of him, did not look in top form. Bromista used a moonsault press to put the rookie away in a fast-paced match. Speaking of OdZ, leader ZODIAK faced off against Jesus X's younger brother, Damien in what was a very emotional match, with Damien getting busted open in the early goings. With Jesus X on the shelf, the odds went out of favor very quickly for Damien. Every attempt at a comeback was thwarted by the numbers game. Damien attempted to continue fighting, but the seal of the deal was the fireball that ZODIAK threw at him, with Damien staggering around holding his face it was a simple matter of ZODIAK grabbing him by the tights and rolling him up to finish the match. The rest of the Oni del Zokugai came into the ring, where it became an exhibition of how to hurt a lone man in a hurry. RUINER picked him up and dropped him onto his neck with the R-75, DEMOS picked him up and gave him the Pedigree, only for the big man to come in, with the rest picking him up and holding him up, only to be hoisted onto 001's shoulders, spun around and then dropped right onto his head. To say he was stretchered out was an understatement. Without his brother, OdZ were simply too much for Damien.
The young Ken Shields has made a statement in Spunk Pro in his short stint, which has angered the imposing vet, Lester Bourbon. The two have met under a few different circumstances, but it came down to this, a Texas Deathmatch, the Last Man Standing match. Shields, the Texan is looking for the big win and looking to put the monster to rest at long last. There was nothing pretty about this match, as both men simply beat the snot out of each other. Shields went down many times, but kept getting back up. This was frustrating Lester, which might not have been the best idea, as he ran into a well-placed Axe Bomber (a move he knows very well). Shields is in the corner, just hoping and praying the monster stays down, as he starts to get up, Shields quickly downs him again with a rolling punch, which could be it! He sees Lester starting to stir again and climbs up to the top rope and he drops the Golden Elbow! It was too much for Lester, the final onslaught put him down for good, with Shields emerging the new hero.
This brings us to our main event. The elimination 6-man tag is a match that is well-known to Spunk Pro fans, as many a grudge has been built and flourished inside of these matches. These matches have made careers, determined who true contenders are, proven who the toughest men are in the sport and so on. This one was no different, as McFadden's team, possibly the three most brutal men in the sport, squaring off with Spunk and YUSUKE with the unlikely partner of Bobo Gomez. Spunk came in the ring once again holding the unsigned contract, throwing it back in Sommers's face (clipboard and all), before Sommers just kicks it out of the way, smug in the fact that he has gotten into the worthy-challenger's mind. The first 20 minutes was back and forth action, the first shock of the evening came when Spunk was squaring off against Havok. Nobody expected Havok to use such a brutal powerbomb on Spunk, or his head to snap off the canvas like that. When Havok picked Spunk up and locked in the over-the-knee Cobra Clutch, Spunk was completely out of it. The first elimination was the number one contender!
YUSUKE was not going to simply sit back and watch this unfold, no, he came in and really took it to Havok, finishing off the job just mere moment after Spunk's elimination with his patented Dragon Suplex, putting Havok down for the three-count, as you can imagine, Spunk was livid at the man he beat to become the top contender easily putting away a guy that brutalized him. Spunk argued with YUSUKE about that very thing, which distracted him from the match at hand, as he simply claimed he was getting revenge for him. Well, he turned around into the B.A.D. from Big T, which spelled lights out, Spunk oddly enough with a smirk on his face.
The surprise of the night was Bobo Gomez fending off the champion and the biggest, toughest man in Spunk Pro history for a solid fifteen minutes, getting a few close falls and looking like a man possessed before the numbers game came into play. Just when it looked like he had the upperhand, going for a brainbuster on Big T, Sommers came in and levels him with a knee to the gut. T quickly brings him up for one of his own, which we all know can only go DOWN into the B.A.D. McFadden, like a mad conductor is shouting instructions from the floor, yelling out "BAD NIGHTMARE!" over and over again, as T holds Bobo up, letting the blood rush from out of his body into his head, as Sommers nods and moves off the ropes, bringing his knee up just as T brings Bobo crashing down, the force of the chokeslam right into the Champ's deadly knee. It was over from there. There was no other option. Spunk was not going to take this lightly, though, oh no, as all hell broke loose. YUSUKE and Spunk launched an assault against all three men, as Bobo was actually fighting off a medical crew. He took the most deadly finisher imaginable and he was refusing medical attention!
YUSUKE had Sommers lined up for the Shining Triangle lock he is known for, when Spunk pushes him out of the way, and subsequently out of the ring, only to go for a running knee kick of his own on the champ. YUSUKE tumbles out of the ring, only to look over and see the clipboard with the blank contract or a Heavyweight title match, a pen clipped to the top. As he watches Spunk arms outstretched over the fallen champion, a look of disgust comes over his face as he pulls the pen out and scratches his name onto the contract, sliding it into the ring and storming back to the locker room. Spunk looks down, and a look of horror comes over his face as he sees the name YUSUKE on the dotted line. He looks back at the entranceway to see YUSUKE, then looks down at the contract as YUSUKE gives him the 'up yours' motion and heads to the back through the curtain.
It looks like Spunk has lost his number one contendership!

Spunk Pro new.Day
Spunk Pro is back! That is right, you have read that/watched that correctly, and well, we got a show for ya! As with everything Spunk Pro, plans happen and plans change, the last time we came to you was, well, January 7, 2008, and it is now February of 2009. Oh well. Spunk hosted a Mixed Martial Arts invitational in December, and I guess decided once again to get the band back together and come out of retirement. Here we are. Last year, well, it never happened, as everybody is pickin up where they left off, because why shouldn't they?
We have a new champion in Dan Sommers, pinning Jesus X, who is still deeply embroiled in a blood feud with Zodiak. This leaves us in now what is a bit of a murky title picture. We have Dan Sommers, the undisputed Spunk Pro Heavyweight Champion and no clear contenders. One would have to think that the title picture would involve some of Spunk Pro's top contenders, with Spunk winning the REAL Tournament in December, beating the Champion with a kick to the face, knocking him out cold. On the other hand, that was not pro wrestling rules, was not a sanctioned Spunk Pro event. Then when looking back, the man with the most wins over Sommers, the fly continually buzzing around him, frustrating him, pinning his shoulders to the mat is none other than the Celtic Bruiser himself, Sean Gabriel. Before Sommers had the chance to win the title, he was pinned a number of times by the Bruiser, and the show directly before was involve in a 60 minute draw in an elimination tag involving the Bruiser himself. Actually, Gabriel cleaned house in that match, which simply turned into Gabriel vs. Sommers and essentially was left up in the air. But then you gotta factor in, well, the rest of the roster!
It looks like we might get some answers, as the show is opening up with Gabriel coming to the ring, looking determined.
Gabriel: "Dan Sommers, let me be the first to, well, publicly congratulate you, boy. You've done it, you are the champion. You have reached the pinnacle of our sport."
He paces around the ring as the fans boo the talk of Sommers. Gabriel smiles and tries to calm them down.
Gabriel: "Now now, let's be fair to the champion. Sure, it was under suspect means, sure he made a deal with the devil and sold out Jesus X, delivering him on a platter to Zodiak to get this, but let's not cloud matters further. Sommers pinned the champion fair and square."
He pauses for a moment, then clears his throat.
Gabriel: "But... This leaves everything looking a bit confusing, Jesus X, he don't want a shot at the title, he don't want his rematch. No. He wants 001 tonight, and he wants to destroy Zodiak before he reclaims his title. I don't blame him. Sommers, this leaves you without a program my boy, but I must tell you, no matte the streak you are on, I can think of a man that you can't pin..."
The fans began to cheer, chanting "Celtic Bruiser" as Gabriel smiles again, shaking his head.
Gabriel: "As you can hear, the fans, they know what man I am talking about. They know who you can't pin. I am here, Sommers. Tell that rat Seamus to make this happen. You know that this is your destiny, boy, you know that..."
The lights go out, as Dan's music begins to play and he comes out from behind the curtain with the title in his hand, it hanging down and scraping against the floor. Sommers hoists it up to his shoulder as he climbs into the ring, McFadden trailing behind him. Gabriel and Sommers face off, as Sommers holds the title right up in his face, then back around his shoulder. McFadden is shouting down Gabriel, as he grabs the mic out of his hand.
McFadden: "Sean, my boy, you are a bigger fool than I thought you ever to be! You want to challenge this man? You want to challenge the champion, Dan Sommers? The most dangerous man in the sport today? I knew you to be a fool, but this, ha, this is suicide, my boy."
Gabriel laughs as he motions for the fans to chant for him again, Sommers flipping out and kicking the ropes, spitting out into the crowd as Seamus tries to calm him down. Sommers grabs the mic from McFadden and gets right in Gabriel's face.
Sommers: "You want this? You want to feel the Nightmare? You GOT it!"
The fans erupt as Sommers throws the mic down, McFadden screaming and jumping up and down, asking Sommers what in the hell he is thinking when, yes, you got it right, more music hits. YUSUKE comes out from behind the curtain next to a loud, thunderous applause. He, as well, has a microphone.
YUSUKE: "Sean Gabriel, while you may be strong, you've had your chances, you've had your time. I've waited, and I've waited, and now is my time. Brute force against brute force is not what is needed, what is needed is technique, discipline and honor to defeat Sommers. That is me, that is YU..."
"We're Not Alone" by Peeping Tom hits the speakers, interrupting YUSUKE, as the fans erupt, chanting for Spunk, as he comes out behind YUSUKE, pushes him aside and poses for the fans a bit before grabbing the mic out of YUSUKE's hands and calling for the music to stop.
Spunk: "Apologies for interrupting this little love fest, but, have we forgotten who knocked Sommers the fuck out in just December?"
The fans go nuts as Spunk shrugs and nods.
Spunk: "Yeah, that was me. Not Sean 'I got choked out, but I'll say I was fouled' Gabriel, and it sure as fuck wasn't you, Yu. You, well, you were tapped out by him if I remember correctly. Now you think that you can beat him?"
YUSUKE nods as Spunk laughs.
Spunk: "What have you done to deserve this? I know you, know what you are ready for, and you aren't ready for this. Gabriel, Sommers, have your match. But know that I am coming for the winner. And Yu, well, YUSUKE, you think that you are big time now? Get through me first. But you better damn well hope that you beat me, because if you don't, don't think that I'm gonna go light on you. I promise that I won't. Hit my music."
His music resumes as he pushes the mic into YUSUKE's chest and stomps off to the back. It looks like our card is already falling apart and reshaping itself however the hell it wants to. Now we have Spunk vs. YUSUKE in a #1 Conteder's match of sorts and a huge, huge Heavyweight title match, DAN SOMMERS. SEAN GABRIEL. YEARS IN THE MAKING!
We were hoping that our first match would start, Havok vs. Paradigm, with Havok already in the ring and Paradigm in the back warming up, when Paddy Baker approaches him. Paradigm looks poised to attack when Baker laughs and tells him to calm down. He asks 'digm how he feels to be the little messenger boy being sent out to his death against an angry Havok, doing the dirty work for Zannino & Co., as always. They argue a bit, before Baker tells him that he knows the contract, he knows how the italians work and is willing to help him. Bianco storms in, fuming at this, saying that Paradigm "owes him a considerable debt" and can't just be "let go." Baker lays down a challenge, if Briggs and Zannino can beat the both of them, Baker will work for Bianco & Co., but if they defeat La Cosa Nostra, Paradigm's debt is paid off. Bianco laughs and accepts, telling Baker he looks forward to having another 'mick' on the crew to demean.
I guess then, Bianco sends out poor Joey Knuckles in his place. Ouch. Havok basically tosses him around and then chokes him out with the Cobra Hold over the knee, the Havoklok.
In what looks to be our original main event, the WWA Welterweight Championship, well, it has fallen apart as we cut to backstage with DEMOS assaulting Shogo Otsuka! Otsuka is laid out, bloody, and DEMOS looks, well, demonic. Officials come back to break it up and Marakuso says he is sick of OdZ running around like they own the place, he strips DEMOS of one of his titles, the WWA Welterweight Championship on the spot. If Shogo can't compete for it, neither can DEMOS. Instead, tonight there will be a Welterweight Invitational for the vacant title!
What ensued was an incredible bout, featuring 8 top contenders, including a few MPLL stars from Mexico, El Matador, M.Y. Stereo, Espirito, BARACK (Barack Obama/Rock impersonator) and a familiar face to Spunk Pro fans, Wataru Araya. Also shaDow backed out of his tag match obligation to enter, RUINER decided to represent OdZ and a surprise entrant in Juan Leche delighted the fans! The pace was breakneck, crazy submissions, big dives, double teams. I'm sure that you can imagine the insanity. The first elimination was sadly BARACK, who going for a Rock Bottom on El Matador, found himself taunting too much and blabbing about change, and ended up in a modified facebuster and then El Matador pinning him with one foot. Ouch. Espirito was outed by Araya using the Firebuster Arrow soon after. When going for a Firebuster on M.Y., Leche took this to heart and used a springboard crossbody landing on Araya for the quick 3-count! shaDow wasn't long for this world, getting fireball bombed by RUINER for the 3-count. M.Y. went for a german suplex on RUINER, only to get kicked in the balls while the ref wasn't looking and rolled up for a 3-count! This leaves Juan Leche, RUINER and, well, El Matador! R-75 by RUINER on Matador! He is gone, but for a newcomer he did extremely well! Big kenka kick on Leche, RUINER looking to keep the title in OdZ and prove himself to be just as good as DEMOS, his partner. Leche catches him with a savate kick and goes for a crossbody, only for it to be ducked, he picks up the world famous Leche, kicks him in the balls, R-75! 1! 2! 3! New champion, and sadly it is an OdZ member! The title didn't go far, that is for sure.
With shaDow out of the tag match now, this leaves eDo against Johnny Jett, the charismatic International Champion, a belt that eDo helped to make famous when we knew him as Tomohiro Ito, before he, well, went emo. It was a fast-paced and tough match, with DanDead the enforcer getting involved what felt like a few times too many. When the Red Carpet Rub was applied, he had no choice but to tap out and leave Jett with his title secured.
What followed was the contract tag match, where the stakes were high for both Baker and Paradigm. Paradigm has been forced to work under La Cosa Nostra for what seems like years now, for simply losing a match like this. Being in 'debt' to La Cosa Nostra is never a good thing, and we all know Baker and Gabriel's troubles with La Cosa Nostra. With Gabriel having his sight's set on Sommers, it looks like Baker is looking to bring somebody new into the Celtic Bruiser fold. It was another classic tag match, just like we are used to between the sides, but with Paradigm, the young crafty fighter taking Gabriel's place. This inherently made this match a lot more technical and less of a brawl. Baker and Paradigm worked well as a pair, helping each other out of a few tight spots before clearing the ring, Baker getting the shoulder breaker on Zannino after a Piledriver by Paradigm, then locking in the chicken wing armlock while Paradigm keeps Briggs at bay and Zannino is forced to swallow his pride and tap out! What a huge win, as Paradigm and Baker celebrate, Paradigm looking like a weight has been lifted off his shoulders. You have to believe with a win over the tag team champs that this unlikely pair is also the first in line for a shot at the tag titles!
Jesus X is staring down the mask of the man that he created. Sorrow fills his eyes, as he understands that a lot of this man's pain is his fault. He has apologized in the past, but none of that seems to matter at the moment, as the monster has found a new master, possibly one more devious than imaginable. Zodiak has no real plan, he has no agenda, he just wants the world to burn. Jesus X is and always has been his target due to his message of redemption. Zodiak sees redemption as a lie, as a message to the weak.
Jesus X throws the figurative and literal first blow, punching 001 in the face, which doesn't even seem to affect him. More and more damage he is inflicting on the monster, who is simply absorbing it. This continues for a few minutes, with Jesus X simply running through his spots, but not really seeming to hurt 001 all that bad. He is getting hurt, no doubt, but he keeps getting up for more. Jesus X finally has him lined up for the Saviour Kick, the fans are pumped, but everybody seems on edge, it can't be this easy, can it? He goes for it, and the big man ducks under, then reaches his giant hand up to Jesus X's throat! CHOKESLAM! That just shook the ring! Jesus X is writhing on the mat as 001 picks him up by his newly grown back hair, the mane that Zodiak had claimed as his own just over a year ago (to be fair, we haven't run since then). He picks him up and then tucks him for what looks to be a powerbomb, but he hoists him up and then holds his arms, outstretched in a crucifix! Zodiak now makes his way through the crowd, hissing through his lips as he calls or him to finish it. What follows is an absolutely devastating Black Tiger Bomb, Jesus X's head bouncing off the mat... But he isn't going for the pin. Zodiak slides in under the ropes and pulls, oh no, a set of clippers out from his trunks. He is going to reclaim Jesus X's hair! Sure, we haven't run in a while, but how is this fair? The buzz is heard at ringside and it looks like this was just a set up, a public castrating! Wait, somebody just ran through the crowd, is that? LARIAT! He just took Zodiak's freaking head off! 001 pulls Zodiak's limp body out of the ring as Jesus X whispers to what looks to be D, Jesus X's estranged brother, "Damien, you don't have to, you don't have to.." D simply shakes his head and grabs a mic, declaring war on both of them. It looks like we have an impromptu tag match!
The action is hot and heavy, with Damien (as his brother called him) does most of the work, as Jesus X is still rattled by the assault. Damien seems to be doing some damage to the monster, but 001 and Zodiak are keeping their tags up, keeping the match flowing and the ring cut off. Things go awry when Damien and Zodiak spill to the floor, Jesus X is looking to dive out onto Zodiak and save his brother when he turns around to stare at the monster 001's chest! When his hand wraps around Jesus X's throat it was no surprise. What followed next was a chokeslam with speed and power unlike we've seen in a long time, Jesus X landing directly on his neck, his body crumpling on top of it, and he looks to be hurt, bad! Damien tries to tend to his brother, but this just won't work, not in a 2-on-1 situation against men, no demons like these. He has a few valiant comebacks, but it all proves to be in vain as Zodiak picks him up and plants him with the Zodiak Spike (MDII, for the uninitiated) or the text book 3-count. But they don't look done, oh no, Zodiak is calling for 001 to "finish him." 001 picks him up, hoists him up onto his shoulders and just launches him across the ring, landing on top of his already laid out brother, the downed brother's in the shape of a crucifix now. Zodiak laughs as he leaves them both laid out in the ring.
We move now to what is one of our main events, Spunk facing off with his protege, YUSUKE in a match to determine who faces the winner of Dan Sommers and Sean Gabriel. The action starts off like you think it would, looking more like a kickboxing match than a wrestling bout, with spunk finally taking it to the mat with a judo throw, an ashi guruma! This just makes YUSUKE fight harder, both men going back and forth. YUSUKE catches a high kick from Spunk and CAPTURE SUPLEX! I think it is clear at this point that nobody is going easy here, both men have decided that this match is important. YUSUKE wants to prove that he can hang, and Spunk wants to prove that he is the top fighter in Spunk Pro. The chances of this match lasting long is, well, slim, because these guys are just killing each other. This is not a pace you usually see from heavyweights, this is two men throwing everything at each other, regardless of the damage they've taken. This is a fight to the death. YUSUKE scores a tight nearfall with a high kick on the master of high kicks, which as you can imagine is a slap to the face. Spunk quickly hoists him up, MF-1, but he isn't pinning him! He plants him with a few more kicks and then goes for a german suplex, one of YUSUKE's moves! 1..2...2.999! YUSUKE is furious as he slaps Spunk a few times, German of his own! 1...2...2.99! YUSUKE gets him up again, DRAGON SUPLEX! 1...2...2.999! This is crazy, he is going for it again, Spunk with a few elbows, goes behind, German Suplex! Another tight fall! He quickly transitions into a rear naked choke! YUSUKE is in serious trouble, but he makes the ropes. Spunk has him lined up for a high kick, YUSUKE catches, CAPTURE! 1...2..2.99!! These two aren't going to be able to get out of bed in the morning, no fucking way. YUSUKE off the ropes, looking for a kneel kick, Spunk ducks. Spunk sits him up, he dashes off the ropes, RUNNING FACE KICK! YUSUKE pops back up! Spunk with a few low kicks, a mid kick, a slap in the face, savate and then, BOOM! Terminal Saikyo High kick! YUSUKE has collapsed as Spunk drapes himself over him for the 1...2...3! Wooooow. Spunk has pulled this off, but YUSUKE had him beat what felt like 8 times, you gotta think this isn't how Spunk wanted it to go.
Spunk drapes YUSUKE over his shoulder and helps him to the back in what is, well, a mixed signal.
Now it is time, it is time for Dan Sommers to have his first and possibly only title defense against a very game Sean Gabriel. Sommers was the man that took Gabriel's WILD International Heavyweight Title, his manager and Gabriel is the man who has been seeking his vengeance. It starts out with a feeling out period, also known as punching each other in the face, with Gabriel finally breaking it down and starts stretching Sommers, working him over and trying to get the pace where he wants it to be, to where he can start grinding out the punishment. He drapes him over the shoulders and drops him throat first over the ropes. Sommers staggers around, but a few well placed punches lands Gabriel into a daze, enough to get locked into an abdominal stretch. Sommers of course, using the ropes as leverage! Pulling away just in time for the ref to check, until finally ref Druid sees it and calls for the break.
The back and forth jabs and overhands continue, both men going toe to toe until Sommers starts unleashing his flurry of knees, his knees being his deadliest weapon behind his fists and his brute strength. He follows up with a few well-placed knee drops to the back o the head. Sommers then picks Gabriel up and dumps him out of the ring to catch his breath. Gabriel walks in to a few more knees, a huge running powerslam and another knee to the face, with Sommers picking up a quick 2-count, lifting Gabriel's head up at two. He follows up picking Gabriel up and powerbombing him right onto the top turnbuckle! Ouch. Gabriel tries to fight back with a few punches, but is downed by a big headbutt from the champ for another close 2-count. Sommers, uncharacteristically perched up top and a diving double axe handle! 1...2... no! Gabriel kicks out. Gabriel now fighting back with a few tight fists, school boy! 1! 2! NO! This has just upset Sommers, as he decks him and there it is, the Alabama Death Drop (Reverse DDT), 1...2...2.5! Gabriel is still game! Alabama Deathlock applied! He has it on him, but Gabriel able to get the rope break!
This is just all Sommers now, as he picks Gabriel up by the hair, who is punching away at Sommers in the ribs, but Sommer isn't even flinching as he drives him down with the sit out powerbomb! 1...2.. Gabriel kicks out with force! Gabriel off the ropes, running knee to the gut, off the ropes again and a big diving elbow! He is starting to get fired up, and a headbutt downs him and give the champ a breather. There it is, that brutal Dan Sommers backdrop suplex he is known for! This is usually a sign of things to come, and there is the sitout powerbomb again! ONE COUNT ONLY! Gabriel picks him up and shotguns him against the ropes again throat first! Gabriel going up top, diving elbow drop! The fans are feeling it! Sommers whipped off the ropes and a big back body drop! Elbow drop off the ropes! Gabriel is making this interesting! Gabriel off the ropes and nails a big lariat! He peels off his elbow pad as he calls for another! Sommers staggering up, wait! McFadden grabbed his foot, tripping him up, Gabriel turns around to shout at McFadden as ref Druid admonishes McFadden, as Sommers has peeled back his knee pad, Gabriel turns around and he finds himself up on the shoulders of Dan Sommers! The crowd is livid, screaming, shouting as Gabriel is trying to elbow himself to freedom. He got his freedom, but it wasn't the direction that he wanted. Oh no, it was a fate far worse. He came rushing down, head first onto the bare knee of Dan Sommers, the crack was heard throughout the arena as it dropped silent. Gabriel crumbled to the canvas as Sommers went to pick him up again, but he was limp, Druid pushes Sommers away, checks on Gabriel and calls for the bell. This one is over, Sean Gabriel, the Celtic Bruiser, has been knocked out cold!
Sean Gabriel, one of the toughest men we've ever seen, has been annihilated by Dan Sommers Baker and Paradigm are out checking on Gabriel as Baker looks concerned, calling for a stretcher. Sommers hoists the title over his shoulder and the look in his eyes is nothing short of demonic as McFadden pats the title and shouts into the camera about nobody being able to stop this man. For once, McFadden could be right, as he stands menacingly over Gabriel with the crew holding him back from attacking the downed Gabriel while they load him onto a stretcher.

Spunk Pro 1.7.08 -- Fall From Grace
1.7.08
The Seventh of January saw another night of hot Spunk Pro action, the first in the new year! We kick things off with Paddy Baker taking on Spunk Pro stalwart and utter failure Rusty Chodes. Chodes just got beaten up a lot (a LOT) and fell to the Reverse Piledriver from Baker for the fundamental 3-count. Baker is tough, but you knew that already. The next match was one that we've been brewing up for a while now, Paradigm, still trying to break free from the clutches of Spunk Pro Tag Team Champions, La Cosa Nostra faced off with the MAN, the MASTER AND RULER OF THE DANNYVERSE, who ruined his title shot at Johnny Jett last time we saw Spunk Pro action. Needless to say, Paradigm was outweighed, outpowered but not outsmarted. Oh no, he was taking every chance that he got to use his quickness and his brains to his advantage. The finish was exciting, as Dan was going for a big chokeslam, and in midair Paradigm catches his head and locks in the Guillotine Choke! They crash to the mat as Paradigm chokes the life out of Danny Bell, and he fells the giant!
We saw two hot Spunk Pro feuds come to a frothing head, as DEMOS teamed up with Lester Bourbon to take on their rivals, Shogo Otsuka and Ken Shields. It was a face-paced match, with DEMOS looking on point against Shogo, and Shields doing his using quick in-and-out attacks on Lester, but Lester got the better of him this time, as he crashes from behind with a lariat, leading into the SIDS Clutch for the pinfall. Was there a brawl afterwards? Well, is this Spunk Pro? Yes, yes it is. Yes, yes there was a brawl.
We had a big return tonight, as Havok returned from a trip to the southwest, where we can only imagine him training in the desert, eating spicy foods and probably having sex with Latina hookers. Needless to say, he looked more focused than we've seen him, as his return bout was a challenge, as the previously undefeated streak he held was scrubbed by YUSUKE, the sensation with a huge shouda to the back of the head. YUSUKE of late has felt like he has been criticized as a man who looks to finish with his submission holds or his Dragon Suplex, and that he isn't 'dynamic enough' to some fans, so this was a big proving point to him, to defeat a previously undefeated Havok, and doing so with a deadly, yet different technique than usual.
As you'll remember, Jesus X lost that huge Cage Hair vs Mask match at our year-end extravaganza, which led not only to the embarrassment of ZODIAK shaving his head, but the uncertainty of ZODIAK being granted permission to have his choice of match any time that he wanted, any rules he wanted. ZODIAK is out now, alongside DEMOS and RUINER, and our fears are coming true, as he is challenging Jesus X to come to the ring. Marakuso comes out to make sure this situation doesn't get out of control, to act as a mediator, but with all 4 of these men in here, who knows! ZODIAK lays it on the line;
ZODIAK: You wanted me to have nothing, you wanted to take me and destroy me. Well, I've shed myself of my possessions, Jesus. My payback, is not only to show you my strength without them, but to take everything from you. Everything.
Jesus X swallows hard as he adjusts the title on his shoulder, pointing to it, then at ZODIAK, laying the title out in between them and telling ZODIAK to bring it on. ZODIAK simply laughs.
ZODIAK: I know what you want, and I know what I want. They are different paths, and sadly, for you at least, they do not cross tonight. Instead, its something far worse, something you aren't prepared for, something you know little about... Your title will be gone by the end of tonight, I can assure you.
Jesus X tries to jump at ZODIAK, but Marakuso holds him back.
ZODIAK: Your challenger, the man who has... Convinced me, with the help of one Seamus McFadden and a few thousand dollars, convinced me he should be the one to destroy you... That man.. Is DAN. SOMMERS.
Sommers' music hits as he comes out, followed by a maniac McFadden, laughing and clutching at his wrist. Sommers has the WILD International Heavyweight Championship over his shoulder and points at the Spunk Pro Heavyweight Championship, and that is all that is needed, as OdZ leave Jesus X speechless in the ring, as he stares down his contender for the night.
The Tag Team Champions were gracious enough to accept one final challenge from the former champions, Strike Force. Really, this should have been a triumphant match for Strike Force, as since losing to La Cosa Nostra they've honed their craft and become more vicious than befoe, more vicious and looking for the win. La Cosa Nostra, though, are crafty. Not everything they do is within the rulebook, but at some point, the rulebook goes out the window and underhanded techniques take over. Bianco used not only the almighty dollar to distract the referee, but many other techniques as well. It didn't matter, as Lee Stone wanted those titles back, and showed why he is one of the toughest men in Spunk Pro, as he laid both members out with the Stone Crusher. He had Riggs up for a second one, and Bianco deployed Joey Knuckle's daughter, Jani, to distract the ref, while Stone had Briggs up, Bianco slipped Zannino a pair of brass knux, and he cracked Stone across the back of the head, with Briggs rolling him up, the ref magically being in position and Zannino magically in position to crack Wolf across the skull and tuck the knux into his trunks for the 3-count to become a work of poetry in motion.
Now we come down to the main event, a match that Jesus X was not prepared for, and hell, how can you prepare for this? Dan Sommers since the summer (no pun intended) has been unstoppable. His finisher, the Alabama Nightmare has not only knocked out many men, it has ended careers, putting his former partner and best friend Hobo Joe on the shelf, possibly for the rest of his life, it has knocked out everybody from Shogo Otsuka, YUSUKE, Spunk, Jack Dod, Jason Blackhart, Angelo Sabatini, Shady, really, the list goes on and on. But Sommers is in no way a one-hit-wonder, he crushes opponents with his backdrop, he fractures skulls with his big lariat, mashes brains with his reverse DDT, then scrambles them with his jumping powerbomb. His fists are like getting hit with bricks, while his knees are like getting hit with a steel pipe, and nobody, and I mean nobody, has been able to stop Dan Sommers. The last time he challenged for the title, it was circumstance that prevented him from winning it, as he laid Spunk out cold with the Alabama Nightmare in a 3-way, only for Fiero to catch him with the Whammy Bar and lock the Lock of Rock onto Spunk to secure the title for him. This isn't discounting Jesus X, as he had the longest reign as Heavyweight Champion in Spunk Pro history, with his immaculate 'Seven Deadly Sins' series that blew fans' minds and had people in the back afraid to face him. But this feud with ZODIAK has done things to him, has changed him. Not only physically, as he now sports a crew cut after that embarrassing loss last month, but mentally. Since this feud began, it looks like Jesus X has aged at least 5 years. He looks worn, tired, like he watches where he goes, never knowing when ZODIAK will be there. ZODIAK was the man he hired to help him secure the Spunk Pro Championship again, but a change of heart made him cancel the deal, only for ZODIAK to swear revenge and essentially win the title for him. Since then, Jesus X has been trying to prove, not only to himself, but to the fans that he deserves to be champion.
This leads us up to tonight, where two of the most decorated and feared competitors in Spunk Pro history face off. One man walking the path of salvation and forgiveness, while the other walks a much darker, destructive path, as he seeks only destruction and pain. This was an emotional match for both men, as Sommers feels this is something he has deserved, having to 'dumb himself down' to be a comedy act with Hobo Joe, having to dig himself up from poverty to become a professional wrestler, and breaking the stigma of being a perennial tag team champion. Sommers was looking to simply fry Jesus X's brain, as the onslaught of punches to the skull and the DDTs were really wearing him thin, but the champ is resilient and refuses to go down. Jesus X is looking to connect with the Saviour Kick, the kick that since his return has been his main weapon, with the Sign of the X being retired, or saved for only the most dire of situations. Perhaps this was a situation for it, but he simply never had the chance for it, as Sommers was just overwhelming. The finish had the fans jumping up and down and screaming, as Jesus X had just planted Sommers with the Final Cut, and was waiting for him to get up to plant the Saviour Kick and secure his title. But that isn't what Sommers was planning, as he ducked under the kick, securing the champion onto his shoulders and much to the screams of protest by the audience nailed him with the Alabama Nightmare. Everything was moving in slow motion as the knee cracked across the face of Jesus X, as bloody splattered, a loud crack was heard throughout the arena and the sound of Seamus McFadden cackling broke through the static like fingernails on a chalkboard. The sound of the ref's hand dropping three times felt like watching an execution, no matter how quickly you want it to go and simply be over with, to end the pain, it dragged. Sommers has his hand raised, and the title firmly in his grasp as he spits down at Jesus X.
To say the fans were in shock is an understatement, as a new era of brutality quickly descended upon Spunk Pro as Dan Sommers, the redneck from Alabama, the man with more DUI's and DWI's than the entire roster put together, the man who once knocked out a black man's teeth in a bar one by one just because he was bored, the man who ruined the life of Goat Banga (remember him?) and crippled his best friend is now the Spunk Pro Heavyweight Champion. If there was a god, he would save this promotion and save Jesus X, but for now, its up in the air, as Dan Sommers makes his way to the back, screaming at fans that he is the champion, he is the man, and he is their ruler, OdZ's music hits and the lights dim. What happened next had to be seen to be believed, as OdZ, the lights flashing on and off were brutally attacking the fallen former champ. This is what ZODIAK wanted. ZODIAK wanted him to be weak, powerless, stripped of everything; his pride, his championship, his good looks and his spirit. What happened next is a blur, as the lights finally settled back, and a man walked out from behind the curtain, a huge man, one that we haven't seen in a very long time.. This man was not even a man, but a monster, it is 001! 001, the former Spunk Pro Heavyweight Champion, and he is stalking to the ring! 001 was Jesus X's bodyguard (acquired through questionable means, granted) turned foe, but it looks like 001 has forgotten, and that he is coming to save Jesus X!
... Only, there is no fear in the eyes of OdZ, but anticipation, as 001 enters the ring and stares them down, in between them and Jesus X, Jesus X helping himself up on 001, the mass of muscle that he is, only for 001 to look down at him, and then smash him across the skull with his fist! OdZ are laughing, fans are crying and Jesus X is getting mauled by this monster! The first chokeslam sounded like a shotgun being fired. The second was more muffled under the sound of the crowd, but what was heard loud and clear was 001 hoisting Jesus X up over his shoulders, holding him up by his arms in a crucifix position, and essentially just tossing him off of the tower that is his shoulders into one of the most brutal powerbombs we've ever seen in Spunk Pro, maybe even wrestling (and we employ Big T!).
Its silence now, as 001 stands over Jesus X, with ZODIAK's laughter being the only thing to pierce through the silence, as he stands over the fallen former champ, just laughing. Just laughing.

Spunk Pro December Digest
12.6.07
December was quite a month for Spunk Pro, as things start off with DanDead dismantling Joey Knuckles after La Cosa Nostra sent him out to take care of DanDead after a backstage incident where DanDead bumped into Rick Briggs, spilling coffee all over him. Post-match Zannino and Briggs dragged Knuckles backstage to meet with Bianco, and Bianco showed his displeasure towards Joey Knuckle's lack of winning edge, and claimed that he found a way for Knuckles to begin to repay them. From there a scantily clad girl came out from the door behind them and Joey's jaw dropped, as he starts shouting and crying, with Zannino laying a few fists to his gut while Briggs holds him up by his hair. Bianco explains that she is a beautiful girl and that he is sure she'll pay off Daddy's debts in no time. Uh oh.
The team of shaDow and eDo put on a blistering match against the evil luchadores, Bromista and Camello del Noche, it saw the 'Black as Love' boys just tossing themselves around with no worry about their bodies, with the Suicide Bomb from shaDow putting Camello away. The Spunk Pro International Champion successfully defended his title against Paradigm after Paradigm made such a valiant effort to win the title just weeks ago. It was a hard fought battle that saw Johnny Jett overcome what turned out to be strange odds, as Joey Knuckles was apparently ordered by La Cosa Nostra to stop at nothing to help Paradigm win the title. This would, in most cases, mean Johnny Jett made an incredible babyface comeback, but its Johnny Jett -- which means that things got fishy rather quickly. After taking some knuckles from Mr. Knuckles and Paradigm, Johnny Jett grabs the mic from the timekeeper and shouts for his 'secret weapon' to come out. This, folks, was DanDead. Danny Bell comes stalking out, laying out Joey Knuckles with a big boot, then making the sign of the cross as the fans go crazy, DANNY BOMB! Here comes Paradigm, he goes for a lariat, and Dan catches him -- chokeslam! He rolls Paradigm back into the ring, and Johnny Jett is quick to lock in the Red Carpet Rub, and this one is OVER.
ZODIAK and DEMOS are out now, and ZODIAK is running his mouth about Jesus X, as Jesus X comes out to confront him, ZODIAK claims that he will take everything from Jesus X, and that he demands Jesus X defends his title. Jesus X accepts the challenge and tells him he'll be happy to tear into ZODIAK, only for ZODIAK to laugh and explain that its not him, its not him at all. Jesus X walks off in a huff with his title as ZODIAK and DEMOS prepare for a face-off with VIOLENCE. The match played out a lot like their previous ones, just with this time Shogo picking up a much-needed pinfall win over DEMOS (finally) with the Shogo-MAX Cutter. ZODIAK was livid after the match, but regained his composure and headed to the back, dragging DEMOS behind him.
The first main event was a huge 6-man elimination tag between the Celtic Bruisers and Ken Shields against Big T, Dan Sommers and Lester Bourbon, a team to fear indeed. This match turned into a one-man show of sorts for Sean Gabriel, as Sean catches Lester with a Cloverplex after a Golden Elbow from Ken Shields, which might have knocked Bourbon out clean! Don't get me wrong, Gabriel was tagging in and out, which was the main reason for the team's success, but Gabriel just seemed unstoppable, next taking down Big T after working over his legs. He took out the big weakness for the big, powerful T with shots to the knees, finally locking in that Cloverhold and T trying to fight his way to the ropes, only for Paddy Baker to drop a few big elbows on him, and follow up with a headbutt, busting him wide open and Big T was forced to tap out! Then it came down to Dan Sommers as the lone survivor, and Dan Sommers fought like his life depended on it. Gabriel asked his teammates to stay back throughout this, as both men slugged it out for nearly 30 minutes, neither man wanting to go down. There was some confusion near the end, as Gabriel had an inside cradle on Sommers who was near the ropes and the ref counted to 3, but then saw that Sommers had a hand clearly grasping onto the ropes. This ate up whatever time was left (a good 14 seconds) and this match was declared a draw!
Sommers grabbed a mic and whilst holding the WILD International Heavyweight Championship spoke about how he was the only real champion in the company right now, and how the pro-wrestling world should be bowing to him. He made an open challenge to the champ, Jesus X, claiming that every champion of late has been ducking him.
This then brings out Jesus X for his phantom title match, as La Cosa Nostra's music hits and Rick Briggs heads to the ringing, claiming that La Cosa Nostra are true champions and that tonight he will bring home the big prize to Little Italy. It was a competitive, back and forth match with Jesus X having to throw everything that he can at Briggs who was working over the back of Jesus X, trying to set him up for the Cement Shoes (Sharpshooter). Jesus X fought through the pain, and the finish came when Jesus X missed the Saviour Kick, Briggs ducking under it, and Jesus X catch him from behind with the Final Cut for the 1....2...3! Well, we'd like to say that this was the end of this story, but it wasn't. This brought out Ted Zannino who was laying into the champ, only for a (really) surprising save from shaDow and eDo, who brawled with LCN into the crowd. It seems like some sort of deal was struck between LCN and OdZ, though, as Jesus X is laid out and waiting for ZODIAK and DEMOS, both with clippers in their hands. ZODIAK grabs a mic and tells DEMOS to hold him back while he takes away his beautiful hair from him. They beginning trying to shave his head only for YUSUKE and Shogo to run out and start fighting with OdZ, this in turn brings out Dan Sommers and Lester Bourbon who are trying to help OdZ, only for Ken Shields to come out and engage Bourbon, and Sean Gabriel coming out to attack Sommers, and we have just erupted into an all-out brawl around the ringside area. We have clippers, we have Shogo trying to rip DEMOS's mask off, this is chaos!
Manakuro Marakuso comes out with a slew of refs, agents and officials trying to break this up, as he announces what could potentially be one of the biggest matches we've seen in Spunk Pro in ages for the next show -- a Cage Deathmatch! Two teams -- Jesus X/Sean Gabriel/YUSUKE/Ken Shields against ZODIAK/DEMOS/Dan Sommers/Lester Bourbon. The stakes? It is a hair vs mask match, escape rules until its down to two men, then its anything goes -- pins, submissions, knockouts, just not escape. There is no escape come the end, only two men, and the winner of that gets to shave (or in DEMOS's case unmask) the loser's head. On top of that, the person who scores the pinfall gets to pick a match of his choosing, whenever he wants, for any title!
This hushes everybody down, as we have some tense stare-downs to end the show.

After the chaos that was our last show, Spunk Pro is back at you for a night that should prove to be a monumental way to ring in the new year for Spunk Pro. The show starts off with Brad Wolf annihilating Rusty Chodes with the Wolf's Bite in just 2 minutes. Johnny Jett teamed up with DanDead, giving Joey Knuckles and Paradigm a chance for revenge from the last show, but it turned out to be more of the same, with DanDead using the Danny Bomb on Joey Knuckles and Johnny Jett making a cocky cover for the win.
Shogo Otsuka and RUINER had anouther chance encounter, with Shogo using the hanging jujigatame on RUINER, attacking the arm he injured well over a year ago for a quick submission. Shogo is calling for DEMOS again, saying he wants his title back. La Cosa Nostra responded to the unspoken challenge from the two emo boys in shaDow and eDo. shaDow cut a promo about how nobody understands them, but that after winning the tag belts somebody will have to try to understand (but still fail, how deep). Well, they didn't exactly win, it ended in a brutalization from Zannino choking eDo out with The Big Sleep(er), eDo passing out in the sleeper and the ref having to call it. shaDow wept a lone tear at the loss, his hair in his face.
This brings us to the cage being assembled around ringside. Its a spectacle to be sure of, large and ominous as the match is about to begin. When the bell rings its an all-out dash for each other, as it feels like the teams have dissolved almost immediately and its just chaos. We can't tell who is on who at this point, just that people are getting beaten up pretty badly.
At the 5 minute point a buzzer sounds and escapes are now legal -- its a dash for the cage walls, only for bodies to go flying to the mat. The first escape was Dan Sommers and DEMOS at the same time, both helping each other by kicking off any persuers from the cage. Both landed at the same time, leaving things a bit uneven in the ring. That was alright, though, as YUSUKE made a dash for the cage, pulling himself out and over, followed by Ken Shields. Its a two-on-two situation now, but Sommers is on the outside smashing a chair against the cage, trying to deter anybody from climbing. Well, this just charged up the fiery Irishman, Sean Gabriel as he climbs out and over and jumps down onto Sommers, them brawling around the arena. Lester Bourbon is quick to follow as ZODIAK has just been sitting back, waiting for it to come down to himself and Jesus X. This was his plan, this is exactly what he wanted. Now that its just down to them, its a bloody brawl, both men smashing each other against the cage, ZODIAK covered in both of their blood looking to be in all of his glory. Jesus X finally makes a spirited comeback, springing off the cage with a crossbody and making a cover for a 2.9! Jesus X is setting up for the Savoiur Kick, ZODIAK up to his feet, and he ducks it -- FIREBALL! FIREBALL! HE JUST NAILED THE CHAMP WITH A FIREBALL! Jesus X is just convulsing, covering his face as he pops back up, leaning against the ropes trying to compose himself, the pain must be so intense.. ZODIAK launches himself at him and nails him with a lariat! He makes the cover and there is no way that he can last.. 1....2.....3! Its over, ZODIAK has won and this only means one thing.. Oh no, DEMOS coming back in, and he has two pairs of clippers with him!
DEMOS is holding Jesus X by the hair, as he is still shielding his face, but he shoves DEMOS off of him, he wants to take this with honor. ZODIAK looks like he is enjoying this as he starts to buzz away at his hair, the Champ's white, blood-stained and cinged locks falling to the mat. The show ends with ZODIAK standing over Jesus X with a handful of his hair in hand, this is MONUMENTAL.
1. Brad Wolf (2:20 - Wolf's Bite) Rusty Chodes

December was quite a month for Spunk Pro, as things start off with DanDead dismantling Joey Knuckles after La Cosa Nostra sent him out to take care of DanDead after a backstage incident where DanDead bumped into Rick Briggs, spilling coffee all over him. Post-match Zannino and Briggs dragged Knuckles backstage to meet with Bianco, and Bianco showed his displeasure towards Joey Knuckle's lack of winning edge, and claimed that he found a way for Knuckles to begin to repay them. From there a scantily clad girl came out from the door behind them and Joey's jaw dropped, as he starts shouting and crying, with Zannino laying a few fists to his gut while Briggs holds him up by his hair. Bianco explains that she is a beautiful girl and that he is sure she'll pay off Daddy's debts in no time. Uh oh.
The team of shaDow and eDo put on a blistering match against the evil luchadores, Bromista and Camello del Noche, it saw the 'Black as Love' boys just tossing themselves around with no worry about their bodies, with the Suicide Bomb from shaDow putting Camello away. The Spunk Pro International Champion successfully defended his title against Paradigm after Paradigm made such a valiant effort to win the title just weeks ago. It was a hard fought battle that saw Johnny Jett overcome what turned out to be strange odds, as Joey Knuckles was apparently ordered by La Cosa Nostra to stop at nothing to help Paradigm win the title. This would, in most cases, mean Johnny Jett made an incredible babyface comeback, but its Johnny Jett -- which means that things got fishy rather quickly. After taking some knuckles from Mr. Knuckles and Paradigm, Johnny Jett grabs the mic from the timekeeper and shouts for his 'secret weapon' to come out. This, folks, was DanDead. Danny Bell comes stalking out, laying out Joey Knuckles with a big boot, then making the sign of the cross as the fans go crazy, DANNY BOMB! Here comes Paradigm, he goes for a lariat, and Dan catches him -- chokeslam! He rolls Paradigm back into the ring, and Johnny Jett is quick to lock in the Red Carpet Rub, and this one is OVER.
ZODIAK and DEMOS are out now, and ZODIAK is running his mouth about Jesus X, as Jesus X comes out to confront him, ZODIAK claims that he will take everything from Jesus X, and that he demands Jesus X defends his title. Jesus X accepts the challenge and tells him he'll be happy to tear into ZODIAK, only for ZODIAK to laugh and explain that its not him, its not him at all.

Spunk Pro November Digest
11.02 - dia de los muertos
Spunk Pro's Dia De Los Muertos show is set to be a big one, and things start off in quite a shocking manner, as a rampaging OdZ stomp out to the ring, with ZODIAK claiming that what happened at the last show was a disgrace, one that he won't stand for. He holds his Spunk Pro International Title up and tosses it down, claiming that he refuses to let Jesus X win again, and won't let him have this title stolen out from under him. He'd rather vacate it! Manakuro Marakuso comes out and takes the title from the ring and proclaims that this will not do, and tonight there will be a Battle Royale to determine who the new champion is! OdZ seem to care less about this, and more on getting their way; ZODIAK and DEMOS want Jesus X and Shogo Otsuka here tonight, and RUINER wants to toss his hat into the ring for the BR. Marakuso agrees to the terms and walks out with the title that he made famous years ago.
Ken Shields took on Tomohiro Ito in the first match, and got the better of the young Ito with his overwhelming FOOTBALL SKILLZ and hits the flying elbow for the pinfall. Shields celebrates post-match only for Bourbon to run out and attack Shields! He is going to town on Ken Shields and finally we have some officials coming out now to stop this. Lester making his way over to Druid, grabbing the mic and shouting that this is what you get when you mess with him.
What we were privvy to next was a bit hard to handle. We first cut to a pretaped segment with Joe Doe approaching La Cosa Nostra's locker room. He knocks when Zannino opens the door, letting him in. Doe brings himself to talk, as he is in the room with Zannino, Briggs, Paradigm, Bianco and a man sitting in a chair, the back turned to them. Doe says he has an issue, as Bianco goes through the proceedings, whispering to the non-visible man, then relaying the information back to Doe. Apparently, Doe needs some money for his daughter's college. Bianco talks about 'The Don' believing in education, and wishing to help Mr. Doe, but that it will mean that Mr. Doe will owe La Cosa Nostra (much like Paradigm). Doe says that he has no choice, and that he will accept. Bianco informs him that he, 'Joey Knuckles' can begin his repayment tonight -- if he can take Brad Wolf out for good, he'll be in the Don's good graces, and his fee will be considered repayed. Its a deal that he cannot refuse. Of course, he fought hard, but Brad Wolf was able to take him out, pulling out something new from the arsenal, nailing a diving spear from the top rope knocking Joey Knuckles clean out. Briggs picks up Joey Knuckles and slings him over Paradigm's shoulder, as they head to the back, Zannino grabbing the mic and telling Paradigm that the Don won't be pleased, and that he has to pick up the slack tonight and win that battle royale for the belt.
The Battle Royale is up next, to determine the new Spunk Pro International Champion.. We have quite a few competitors in the ring... Paradigm, DanDead, shaDow, RUINER, Bobo Gomez and there is room for one more, the competitors are in the ring, wondering who the next man is, when the lights go out, a red carpet rolls down as spotlights all focus on the entrance, as yes, Johnny Jett (!) comes waltzing out, grabbing a microphone and telling people that their hero is back, has been away training and is here to show the world what he is made of. This is quite a shock, as we all thought we'd never hear from him again after ducking Big T months ago after defeating him. The match was all about Paradigm fighting his heart out, trying to bring the title home to LCN, and hopefully free himself from servitude as well. Things were back and forth, every man doing his best to move on, with Paradigm holding on for dear life. Just when it looked like he had the match won, the last man in his way, RUINER goes down to the Northern Lights Suplex, he is celebrating, and Johnny Jett, from outside of the ring springboards in and dropkicks him in the back of the head, before running off of the ropes and double stomping him right in the chest, then grabbing both legs and putting him into the high angle boston crab before Paradigm passes out, refusing to tap out. Johnny Jett is the new champion, and the new champion refuses to let go, the refs having to pull him off before he finally lets go, celebrating his new championship!
Its been quite a show so far, and its not over by a longshot! Sean Gabriel locked horns with Big T next in a battle of wills that ended up with Big T on the outside, getting snake eyes'd onto the railing and hammered in the back of the head a few times, Gabriel rolling in to beat the count.
The main event saw Jesus X team up with Shogo Otsuka to take on the former tag team champions DEMOS and ZODIAK. It was as brutal as one would expect, with DEMOS pulling a surprise win over Shogo hitting that SIDS Clutch that just comes out of nowhere! Afterwards he pulls out his clippers and attempts to shave Shogo's head, only for the champ to Superkick his head off, which leads to a brawl between him and ZODIAK before they are pulled apart.

11.16
Joey Knuckles is in trouble again, as the Don has graciously given him another chance of redeeming himself. This time against the big man, Lee Stone. Lee proved to just be too strong for Joey Knuckles, hitting the Stone Crusher in record time and taking it home for a 3-count.
Now shaDow comes out, sullen and wearing a My Chemical Romance hoodie and a lip ring, Druid meets him at the desk and shaDow complains about his life a little bit, that nobody understands him. He then calls Tomohiro Ito to come out. Ito comes out, not sure what to make of this, as shaDow points to a monitor as they watch Ito get picked apart last show. shaDow tells him that nobody takes him seriously, that his life has been nothing but a disaster after disaster. He offers Ito I guess what you could call him hope, as he offers to take him in, to work together with him. Ito looks like he is considering it, like he is starting to get emotion before shaDow straight up SLAPS him. Ito just stares at his boots as shaDow walks off, Ito refusing to comment to Druid as he walks off.
The Strike Force and La Cosa Nostra conflict continued next, as Briggs, the assasin met up with Brad Wolf, former Special Ops in the Marines. All of La Cosa Nostra became involved, as Lee Stone made the save just minutes in, and this match had to be thrown out.
Johnny Jett made his way out next, wearing his newly won International Championship, and flanked by two girls of international flavor, one looking to be asian, the other of Latino descent. Druid meets up with him, as he tells the girls to stand back and let him talk, Jett claiming that he had to make his abrupt departure months ago to work on a few acting roles in Hollywood. That he also started cutting his debut album and was simply too busy to be a pro-wrestler. But now that his schedule has slowed down for the time being, he decided to grace his old stomping grounds of Spunk Pro with his face again. He said it was no surprise that he is wearing gold, as it is his color. When asked about his underhanded tactics in winning the title, he simply brushed Druid off and walked to the ring, to meet his opponent, shaDow! Well, should I say that shaDow met him. shaDow's style is that of a suicidal maniac. He simply tosses himself from inside the ring out onto Jett without a care in the world. It didn't even look like he aimed that shot, that he just DID it! The match went a lot like that, with shaDow just carelessly throwing his body around, overwhelming Jett. This forced Jett to stall a bunch, when it finally paid off, shaDow going for another death-defying move, and, well, smacking his head against the apron. Johnny Jett slaps him around a bit before rolling him back into the ring and going for the pin, only for shaDow, who surely cares little about the shape he is in kicks out! Jett looks furious as shaDow tries to spring himself off of the ropes with a dropkick, with Jett catching him and slamming him down hard with a spinebuster, holding onto his legs and turning him over into that torture crab again! shaDow is forced to pass out in this hold, and once again Jett refuses to let up until the refs pull him off and offer him his championship!
When asked how he felt about the victory, he said he felt like his celebration should have international flavor, that maybe its time for some Korean. Druid scratches his head as Jett walks off with the girls that he came out with and his title.
The semi-main saw a world famous Spunk Pro elimination tag go down, with Jesus X teaming with Paddy Baker and Ken Shields to face off against ZODIAK, Big T and Lester Bourbon. Sean Gabriel, Paddy's regular partner could not be here after being attacked with a fireball by Stuart Robinson on WILD TV. Big T met with the same fate as he did last time we saw him, being counted out, only this time he was aware, and he was FURIOUS. He made his way back into the ring, pulling his glove off and nailing Paddy Baker with a HUGE right hand. Paddy wasn't quite right after that, leaving ZODIAK to pick up the scraps and pin him with a Demon Driver. Ken Shields got the single biggest pinfall of his career right after that, as he was facing off with ZODIAK, only for Jesus X to catch ZODIAK from behind with the Savior Kick leading him into a small package from Shields, Shields picking up the huge pinfall! Lester stormed in next, and walked into a similar fate, a big enzuiguri from the champ, leading right into a Discus Punch by the Texas All-Stater for the 3-count, as Jesus X and Ken Shields have survived this big match!
This leads us to a match for the Spunk Pro Junior Heavyweight Championship. It was a hard fought match, with Shogo working over DEMOS' arm throughout, and it looked like he had this in the bag, until RUINER came at him with a pair of clippers to distract him and DEMOS hits a big German Suplex for the 3-count. OdZ attempt to shave his head afterwards, but YUSUKE makes the save. It looks like this encounter between these two sides is far from over!

5. Spunk Pro Juniorheavyweight Championship: DEMOS (C) (17:12 - German Suplex) Shogo Otsuka
Spunk Pro's Dia De Los Muertos show is set to be a big one, and things start off in quite a shocking manner, as a rampaging OdZ stomp out to the ring, with ZODIAK claiming that what happened at the last show was a disgrace, one that he won't stand for. He holds his Spunk Pro International Title up and tosses it down, claiming that he refuses to let Jesus X win again, and won't let him have this title stolen out from under him. He'd rather vacate it! Manakuro Marakuso comes out and takes the title from the ring and proclaims that this will not do, and tonight there will be a Battle Royale to determine who the new champion is! OdZ seem to care less about this, and more on getting their way; ZODIAK and DEMOS want Jesus X and Shogo Otsuka here tonight, and RUINER wants to toss his hat into the ring for the BR. Marakuso agrees to the terms and walks out with the title that he made famous years ago.
Ken Shields took on Tomohiro Ito in the first match, and got the better of the young Ito with his overwhelming FOOTBALL SKILLZ and hits the flying elbow for the pinfall. Shields celebrates post-match only for Bourbon to run out and attack Shields! He is going to town on Ken Shields and finally we have some officials coming out now to stop this. Lester making his way over to Druid, grabbing the mic and shouting that this is what you get when you mess with him.
What we were privvy to next was a bit hard to handle. We first cut to a pretaped segment with Joe Doe approaching La Cosa Nostra's locker room. He knocks when Zannino opens the door, letting him in. Doe brings himself to talk, as he is in the room with Zannino, Briggs, Paradigm, Bianco and a man sitting in a chair, the back turned to them. Doe says he has an issue, as Bianco goes through the proceedings, whispering to the non-visible man, then relaying the information back to Doe. Apparently, Doe needs some money for his daughter's college. Bianco talks about 'The Don' believing in education, and wishing to help Mr. Doe, but that it will mean that Mr. Doe will owe La Cosa Nostra (much like Paradigm). Doe says that he has no choice, and that he will accept. Bianco informs him that he, 'Joey Knuckles' can begin his repayment tonight -- if he can take Brad Wolf out for good, he'll be in the Don's good graces, and his fee will be considered repayed. Its a deal that he cannot refuse. Of course, he fought hard, but Brad Wolf was able to take him out, pulling out something new from the arsenal, nailing a diving spear from the top rope knocking Joey Knuckles clean out. Briggs picks up Joey Knuckles and slings him over Paradigm's shoulder, as they head to the back, Zannino grabbing the mic and telling Paradigm that the Don won't be pleased, and that he has to pick up the slack tonight and win that battle royale for the belt.
The Battle Royale is up next, to determine the new Spunk Pro International Champion.. We have quite a few competitors in the ring... Paradigm, DanDead, shaDow, RUINER, Bobo Gomez and there is room for one more, the competitors are in the ring, wondering who the next man is, when the lights go out, a red carpet rolls down as spotlights all focus on the entrance, as yes, Johnny Jett (!) comes waltzing out, grabbing a microphone and telling people that their hero is back, has been away training and is here to show the world what he is made of. This is quite a shock, as we all thought we'd never hear from him again after ducking Big T months ago after defeating him. The match was all about Paradigm fighting his heart out, trying to bring the title home to LCN, and hopefully free himself from servitude as well. Things were back and forth, every man doing his best to move on, with Paradigm holding on for dear life. Just when it looked like he had the match won, the last man in his way, RUINER goes down to the Northern Lights Suplex, he is celebrating, and Johnny Jett, from outside of the ring springboards in and dropkicks him in the back of the head, before running off of the ropes and double stomping him right in the chest, then grabbing both legs and putting him into the high angle boston crab before Paradigm passes out, refusing to tap out. Johnny Jett is the new champion, and the new champion refuses to let go, the refs having to pull him off before he finally lets go, celebrating his new championship!
Its been quite a show so far, and its not over by a longshot! Sean Gabriel locked horns with Big T next in a battle of wills that ended up with Big T on the outside, getting snake eyes'd onto the railing and hammered in the back of the head a few times, Gabriel rolling in to beat the count.
The main event saw Jesus X team up with Shogo Otsuka to take on the former tag team champions DEMOS and ZODIAK. It was as brutal as one would expect, with DEMOS pulling a surprise win over Shogo hitting that SIDS Clutch that just comes out of nowhere! Afterwards he pulls out his clippers and attempts to shave Shogo's head, only for the champ to Superkick his head off, which leads to a brawl between him and ZODIAK before they are pulled apart.
1. Ken Shields (4:02 - Golden Elbow) Tomohiro Ito

11.16
Joey Knuckles is in trouble again, as the Don has graciously given him another chance of redeeming himself. This time against the big man, Lee Stone. Lee proved to just be too strong for Joey Knuckles, hitting the Stone Crusher in record time and taking it home for a 3-count.
Now shaDow comes out, sullen and wearing a My Chemical Romance hoodie and a lip ring, Druid meets him at the desk and shaDow complains about his life a little bit, that nobody understands him. He then calls Tomohiro Ito to come out. Ito comes out, not sure what to make of this, as shaDow points to a monitor as they watch Ito get picked apart last show. shaDow tells him that nobody takes him seriously, that his life has been nothing but a disaster after disaster. He offers Ito I guess what you could call him hope, as he offers to take him in, to work together with him. Ito looks like he is considering it, like he is starting to get emotion before shaDow straight up SLAPS him. Ito just stares at his boots as shaDow walks off, Ito refusing to comment to Druid as he walks off.
The Strike Force and La Cosa Nostra conflict continued next, as Briggs, the assasin met up with Brad Wolf, former Special Ops in the Marines. All of La Cosa Nostra became involved, as Lee Stone made the save just minutes in, and this match had to be thrown out.
Johnny Jett made his way out next, wearing his newly won International Championship, and flanked by two girls of international flavor, one looking to be asian, the other of Latino descent. Druid meets up with him, as he tells the girls to stand back and let him talk, Jett claiming that he had to make his abrupt departure months ago to work on a few acting roles in Hollywood. That he also started cutting his debut album and was simply too busy to be a pro-wrestler. But now that his schedule has slowed down for the time being, he decided to grace his old stomping grounds of Spunk Pro with his face again. He said it was no surprise that he is wearing gold, as it is his color. When asked about his underhanded tactics in winning the title, he simply brushed Druid off and walked to the ring, to meet his opponent, shaDow! Well, should I say that shaDow met him. shaDow's style is that of a suicidal maniac. He simply tosses himself from inside the ring out onto Jett without a care in the world. It didn't even look like he aimed that shot, that he just DID it! The match went a lot like that, with shaDow just carelessly throwing his body around, overwhelming Jett. This forced Jett to stall a bunch, when it finally paid off, shaDow going for another death-defying move, and, well, smacking his head against the apron. Johnny Jett slaps him around a bit before rolling him back into the ring and going for the pin, only for shaDow, who surely cares little about the shape he is in kicks out! Jett looks furious as shaDow tries to spring himself off of the ropes with a dropkick, with Jett catching him and slamming him down hard with a spinebuster, holding onto his legs and turning him over into that torture crab again! shaDow is forced to pass out in this hold, and once again Jett refuses to let up until the refs pull him off and offer him his championship!
When asked how he felt about the victory, he said he felt like his celebration should have international flavor, that maybe its time for some Korean. Druid scratches his head as Jett walks off with the girls that he came out with and his title.

Spunk Pro Oct. Digest
Its been a while, but Spunk Pro has been strong! Here is the digest form of the past month in SPUNK PRO WRESTLING~!
Oct. 12
1. Ted Zannino (2:12 - The Big Sleep(er)) Matt Cafano
2. Brad Wolf (12:05 - Wolf's Bite) Tomohiro Ito
3. Dan Sommers (:23 - Alabama Nightmare) Dick Doode
4. Ken Shields/Matt D(O) (14:56 - Swanton Bomb/Golden Elbow) Lester Bourbon/Rusty Chodes(X)
5. Spunk/Jeus X(O) (13:22 - Superkick) ZODIAK/RUINER(X)
Spunk Pro ran a house show on this eve, with the highlights being taped, with the show starting out with La Cosa Nostra in the ring, bragging about their recent win over Strike Force, and that tonight there would be a demonstration of what is to come for them. Zannino then destroyed local boy Matt Cafano with brutal fists and locking in the BIG SLEEP(er) and Cafano passing out, the ref trying to pry him off, but Zannino refusing the let go. The rest of La Cosa Nostra come in and goad him on, before he finally lets go, leaving his opponent completely laid out. I'd like to tell you that this was the end, but then Rick Briggs locked in the CEMENT SHOES, while Zannino and Bianco laugh. It takes an army of refs to get them out of the ring, but wow, are La Cosa Nostra about getting the job done or what? We also got word that they are next in line for a shot at OdZ for the tag titles, and that should be in a few weeks!
Next up, Brad Wolf comes out and cuts an interview with Druid (in a suit he must have bought at his local Sears for a discounted price) where Wolf says that he is genuinely disgusted at La Cosa Nostra, as him and Lee Stone will show those cowards exactly what they deserve -- the DOOR. He wants to run them out of Spunk Pro for good, and out of wrestling. He put on a spirited match with young Tomohiro Ito, with Ito falling short, and Wolf hitting the big Wolf's Bite spear for the academic 3-count. Wolf grabs the mic and tells La Cosa Nostra that he just showed them how to get it done in the ring. Well yeah, but you didn't kill your opponent, either.
Dan Sommers came out next, followed by Big T, and wasn't in the talking mood, as Druid tried to get a few words and eats a fist to the mouth. While he is being attended to, Sommers took no time at all to destroy local legend Dick Doode with the Alabama Nightmare. It was a lariat and the Nightmare and that was all she wrote. With Big T in tow, Sommers made sure to stop by and see Druid on his way out, and punch him in the face again while Big T growled at anybody who tried to stop them. What monsters!
Newcomer Ken Shields teamed with former Dink, Matt D with his new attitude, Matt D coming out to a My Chemical Romance song (I'll be damned if I look up which one!), with his fingernails painted black and his hair newly dyed -- completely jet black! It seems like his turn from retarded boy into maturity has deeply depressed him somehow, but that didn't prevent him from winning this match! They faced off with a very pissed off Lester Bourbon, who pre-match came out eating a turkey leg, spitting it at Druid (poor Druid) for his only comment, and Rusty Chodes. Rusty got a few elbows off, Lester dominated and Matt D and Ken Shields fought hard, with the finish finally being Lester losing his temper with Chodes and his lame Dusty Rhodes impressions and gave him the BOURBON STREET SLAM. This perfectly set Chodes up for the finish from both men, each at opposite corners, Shields doing the GOLDEN ELBOW and Matt with the SWANTON BOMB! Matt makes the pin and that was that. After the match Druid tried to get a comment from Lester, who just pounded on his chest and screamed he was the king of Bourbon Street, and didn't have time for these chumps. Matt and Ken were a little bit more talkative, as Ken said he was glad to have found a partner in this crazy world, and Matt talked about how unfair the world seemed right now, as well as how much he dislikes President Bush, and how upset he was that Martha Dumptruck hasn't lost weight, so he had to dump her, and that nobody can feel his pain, not even his parents. Ok.
Our big main event was Jesus X, the newly-crowned Champion teaming with Spunk to take on OdZ's ZODIAK and RUINER. The fans were ecstatic to see the new champion, who dedicated his title win to all of the fans, and while he was less than pleased with how he won it, he'd prove he deserved it by destroying ZODIAK here tonight! ZODIAK and RUINER hit the ring, and nobody wants a piece of them, the fans backing up from the entry way, Druid ducking for cover as ANYTHING could happen when they are in the ring. The contest saw Spunk and Jesus X team up to focus on RUINER and specifically that bad arm of his, it paid off as the Champ had him worn down enough to where all it took was the Superkick and RUINER was down for the count! The faces celebrated, but not for long as ZODIAK comes out and tries to throw another fireball at Jesus X, only for Spunk to pull him out of the way! ZODIAK and RUINER scramble to the back as the faces collect themselves and Jesus X grabs the mic, calling out ZODIAK, calling him a coward who needs to breath fire to fight him.
Oct. 22
1. Lester Bourbon (2:12 - Bourbon Street Slam) Rusty Chodes
2. Big T (1:26 - Ref Stoppage) Lex Brown
3. Shogo Otsuka (10:55 - Shogo MAX Cross) RUINER
4. Strike Force (Brad Wolf/Lee Stone(O)) (12:10 - Stone Crusher) Dick Doode/Greek Nick(X)
5. Matt D (13:40 - Suicide Bomb) El Hijo del Demonio
6. Spunk Pro Tag Team Championship: La Cosa Nostra (Ted Zannino(O)/Rick Briggs (22:14 - The Big Sleep(er)) OdZ (ZODIAK(X)/DEMOS)
Lester Bourbon is a mad, mad man, and Druid knew better than to try to catch him this time, as he gets right to business, taking it to his partner from the last Spunk Pro show, but Lester refusing to actually finish him off. He finally picks him up and brings him down HARD with the Bourbon Street Slam, Chodes down for the academic 3-count -- but he won't stop! Lester with a big splash! Another big splash! He is trying to kill him, won't somebody stop this? HERE COMES KEN SHIELDS! Ken Shields just stepped in and hit the discus punch on Lester! Lester is reeling, Shields off the ropes and big golden arm lariat! Lester rolls out through the ropes and lands on his feet, retreating, kicking the guard rail and pushing Druid and his mic out of the way.
Big T took on newcomer and local boy Lex Brown, and well, it was brutal. Big T showed just what he can bring to the table in this match, as he obliterated poor Lex Brown, picking Lex up for a big sidewalk slam, dropping him down and then dropping a big elbow on him. But that wasn't enough. The ref was counting and T picks Brown up. He affixes his hand around the throat of Brown and gets him up high for a chokeslam, and it looks like Brown is tapping out! But T slams him down anyway, knocking him out cold, the ref having to stop the match! Post-match he puts in a few words with Druid, saying that this was just the beginning, and that he can do much worse. Much, much worse, then growls and moves towards Druid, Druid possibly pissing his 10-dollar dress pants!
Shogo Otsuka came out next, and talked to Druid (wearing new pants), claiming that tonight he'll take out RUINER, and that he wants to end this ordeal with OdZ, and wants to once and for all recapture the championship from DEMOS. The match was underway and it went back and forth, RUINER's arm being the main focus, when out of nowhere Shogo used the flying, hanging armbar on RUINER who was forced to tap out. Shogo was celebrating his victory when out of nowhere DEMOS comes out from behind, brandishing a pair of clippers, and he is trying to shave Shogo's head! Shogo narrowly escapes as OdZ stays in the ring.
Strike Force are up next, as both men cut an interview with Druid, saying that they are going to be watching the tag team title match very closely tonight. They made short work of their opponents in impressive fashion, and after the match called for a tag team title shot against the winners tonight. We'll see.
Matt D came out, and complained about his life again, showing us some scrapes on his wrists, saying that life can be so cruel and that he is out here to show us his pain. Ok. He faced off with El Hijo del Demonio, which is no pushover by any means, but was able to pull out the win, with the Swanton Bomb, which we've been informed is called the 'Suicide Bomb' now. Ok. After the match, Matt D moped around a bit, then left.
The main event is for the Tag Team Championship! It was an intense back and forth bout, with OdZ looking to have a slight edge, when it looked like it was curtains for La Cosa Nostra, ZODIAK prepping a fireball Jesus X, the Champ runs out and with the ref distracted by DEMOS so ZODIAK could throw the fireball left for a perfect opportunity for the SUPERKICK! ZODIAK falls into the waiting arms of Ted Zannino's the Big Sleep(er) and its over, he has passed out! Zannino won't release the hold, but Bianco and Briggs are pulling him off, the belts in their hand as they celebrate! We have new tag team champions!
Druid catches up with Jesus X who says turnabout is fair play, and that ZODIAK shouldn't play with fire, as he is just going to get burned!

The main event is for the Tag Team Championship! It was an intense back and forth bout, with OdZ looking to have a slight edge, when it looked like it was curtains for La Cosa Nostra, ZODIAK prepping a fireball Jesus X, the Champ runs out and with the ref distracted by DEMOS so ZODIAK could throw the fireball left for a perfect opportunity for the SUPERKICK! ZODIAK falls into the waiting arms of Ted Zannino's the Big Sleep(er) and its over, he has passed out! Zannino won't release the hold, but Bianco and Briggs are pulling him off, the belts in their hand as they celebrate! We have new tag team champions!
Druid catches up with Jesus X who says turnabout is fair play, and that ZODIAK shouldn't play with fire, as he is just going to get burned!
10.07.2007
Spunk Pro -- 10.5.07
Spunk Pro
The return of WILD forced Spunk Pro to the back burner for a while, but nothing can put down Spunk Pro for good! When we left off last time, OdZ were defeated by VIOLENCE, and forced to defend the tag team belts against them, and in the main event, Jesus X was decimated by the duo of Lester and Jack Dod, the Champion, and the new UHW Champion! Jesus X is out into the ring first, and looks like he has something on his mind.
Jesus X: Jack Dod, the last time anybody saw me, I was in that Four Figure Leg Lock and all 400 of Lester's pounds dropped down onto my chest, and it was over, it was lights out. But what kind of savior does that make me?
*He pauses and takes a deep breath*
Jesus X: I'm here not only to redeem myself, but to redeem Spunk Pro as a whole. From Fiero to you, Dod, this company has been under constant attack, and I came back to defend this company. I put my pride aside and teamed with Spunk, what I'm doing is for the good of everybody. Now get out here and be a man, Dod, I know you are back there.
Its Jack Dod! Here Jack comes, wearing the UHW Championship around his waist and the Spunk Pro Heavyweight Championship over his shoulder. He grabs a mic from a production guy off to the side and pushes him over, laughing a deep Dod laugh as he looks up at Jesus X, hold sthe mic up to his face, opens his mouth, then stops, Jesus X kicking the ropes at this.
Jesus X: C'mon Jack, cat got your tongue for once? Or are you too good for all of this now that you are on top again?
Jack: You will address me as Jack "Magnus" Dod, Unified WILD Heavyweight and Spunk Pro Champion... OF THE WORLD.
Jesus X: And you'll address me as GOD.
Jack: Hey! Thats my other name!
*The crowd boos as Jack flips them off*
Jack: You all just don't understand true greatness. I am Jack Dod, I am the Champion of the Universe! I will defend my titles against anybody, anywhere and..
Jesus X: Then tonight, Dod, you defend the Spunk Pro Heavyweight Championship against me!
*Jack stops, looks around and starts shaking his head*
Jack: No No No! I didn't mean it like that, I mean..
Jesus X: Then how did you mean it? Clearly, if you are such a great champion you'll have no problem putting little old me away, right?
*Jack spits and paces, visibly upset, the fans are chanting "Pussy" at him as he is trying to get them to shut up, Jesus X is urging them on, as Jack kicks the guard rail*
Jack: You're on!
*The fans go wild as Dod flips them off and heads to the back*
Now we are on to our first match of the evening; Strike Force taking on La Cosa Nostra of Ted Zannino, whom we saw in action last time, and his partner Rick Briggs, along with Raymond Bianco Jr. hot on their tails. You can just smell the cigars and pasta coming from these guys.. YEAH! It was a technical brawl, with La Cosa Nostra cutting off the ring for most of the match, keeping Lee Stone away from making the tag. Lee made a heroic comeback, tagging out to Brad, who came in and cleaned house, only to get brass knux in the face from Bianco, leading into a small package by Zannino for the 3-count! The fans are all over these guys as they rush out of the arena, leaving STrike Force behind, bewildered and hot!
Matt D makes a redebut of sorts next, as it is a certain somebody whom we haven't seen in a year, and he has really grown up. His hair is one color, his body has filled out a bit, and his demeanor just looks incredibly different.. There is no way that this is the same Dink that we all knew and loved! He is taking on MPLL's Camillo del Noche in what turned out to be a high-paced match, but with 'Dink' working a lot smarter than we've ever seen him. That still wasn't enough, as Camillo surprised him with a low blow that the ref didn't catch followed by a crossbody! Matt Dinkerdale goes down!
Next up we have a return match that is all about vengeance after the last show; where Dan Sommers and Big T obliterated Paddy Baker with the B.A.D. Nightmare, after Big T was paid off by Seamus McFadden to take out the Celtic Bruisers. Gabriel was able to make the save before more damage was done, but that was already enough. Had Baker not been, well, Paddy Baker and been a normal man he would have been crippled, but Baker is just too tough. This match was an all-out brawl, with Big T and Sommers looking to attempt to cripple Baker again. The climax of the match came when Sommers lifts Baker up for the Alabama Nightmare and Baker is able to get the blind tag to Gabriel! Baker with an elbow to the head of Sommers, who drops him and stumbles into an inside cradle for the 3-count! Sommers and T are furious as things break down into an all-out brawl (like they always do involving these guys), with the refs having to file out to break this up, as well as half of the locker room.
The Tag Team Championship is up next, as VIOLENCE make their way to the ring! They look ready to take the titles tonight, as fans have been wanting this for a very, very long time.
Here come the champs! As Ominous as ever, and things have gone to hell already! All four men brawling out on the floor, and ZODIAK lays out YUSUKE with the International belt! This is not how they wanted to start off this match! OdZ are putting it to Shogo, being as absolutely relentless as we all know they can be! YUSUKE got in a few times, but was taken out just as quickly. Shogo finally started to launch an assault when he had ZODIAK set up top for a superplex! DEMOS grabs the foot, and Shogo looks down at him -- MIST! ZODIAK setting him up.. Dear god.. No.. No.. DEMON DRIVER FROM THE TOP! He makes the cover... 1.....2....3! OdZ retain! YUSUKE crawls back into the ring as he checks on Shogo, only for DEMOS to push him off, then pick Shogo up and drive him down with a Pedigree!
Lester Bourbon is out now, and is asking if anybody has the guts to stand up to him, if anybody can beat Lester Bourbon. A kid from the crowd jumps over the rail, and announces himself as Ken Shields, former Texas Tech football star and current Arena Football player, who says he'll use his golden arm to take Lester out. Lester laughs and turns away from him, only to turn around and pound him on the back hard! It looks like we have a match. This young kid gave it his all, and lasted far longer than anybody could, mounting all sorts of offense before Lester put him down with the Bourbon Street Slam!
Now its time, for the MAIN EVENT.. For the Spunk Pro Heavyweight Championship! Jesus X out first, looking focused, and Jack Dod out now, wearing both championships. Jesus X looks focused as Dod steps into the ring, as he rushes at Jack, hitting a big dropkick, pushing him into the corner. Jesus X charges at him and nails him with a big knee, then a kick to the back of the head. He is setting up for a superkick already! Dod up, and he ducks under it, and nails a DDT! It is back and forth from here, until Jack Dod gets the upperhand with some salt to the eyes! Jack Dod just peppering Jesus X in the corner with rights and lefts. He throws him off the ropes -- BIG SPEAR! Jesus X is clutching at his ribs, as Jack Dod picks him up by the hair, and wait.. OdZ are at ringside, OdZ, what the hell are they doing here?
Jack Dod with a kick -- WHAM -- DODSMACK!! He nails it, and RUINER and DEMOS are up on the apron.. The ref is trying to shoo them away, as they grab hold, ZODIAK up on the otherside as Jack Dod looks over at him and asks what the hell he is doing -- FIREBALL! FIREBALL! FIREBALL RIGHT TO THE FACE OF JACK DOD! ZODIAK up top -- BIG DIVING LEG DROP ON DOD! He pulls Jesus X over and drapes him over Dod and slides out of the ring, as the other OdZ members hope back as well and the ref slides over for the cover.. 1....2....3! We have a NEW Champion! New Hero! But why did OdZ do that!?
Medics are looking after Jack Dod as Jesus X recovers and holds the title, looking over at ZODIAK in disbelief.
ZODIAK: This was what you wanted.
*Jesus X pauses and looks down at the title*
Jesus X: Not like this.. We made that deal so long ago, I had forgotten about it.
ZODIAK: I never forget, and neither will you.
ZODIAK laughs as he and OdZ head to the back, leaving a stunned Jesus X in the ring holding the Spunk Pro Heavyweight Championship..
