December 1st 2012 Results

NRWL's December 1st Event was a special lottery style event. This event has proved popular in the past with fans for its unpredictability. Three matches were already set for the night but the rest were determined by random drawings of wrestlers and match types.

The first match saw Mark Blood and Hardcore Adam face off in a 15 minute Ironman Match. The match was highly anticipated as soon as it was announced and both men walked down to the ring. Mark Blood and Hardcore Adam both showed impressive wrestling skills but it was Adam who got an early upper hand when the fight went to fisticuffs. Adam won the first three pinfalls. It was looking dire for Mark Blood but he started to make a comeback late in the match winning the next two pinfalls. Time had run too short for Blood as the bell rang giving Hardcore Adam a victory with a score of 3 to 2.

The next match drawn brought Killer Malone into a singles match with Apollyon of the Sons of Darkness in an Inferno Match. The only other Inferno Match in NRWL history involved Killer Malone in a losing effort against Ingoyama. Malone refused to let history repeat itself by taking the assault to Apollyon early, catching him off guard. Although Apollyon nearly threw Malone through the fire during the match, it was Malone who won the match, tossing his larger opponent through the flames and walking away with a huge victory.

Paul Priest and Johnny Young were pitted against each other in a Last Man Standing match. Both men fought hard. Paul Priest used his speed advantage against Johnny Young but Young had a strength advantage. The fans were on their feet wondering if either man could get up from the abuse they were taking. Johnny Young proved that strength beat out speed on this night as he slammed Priest to the mat with a devastating suplex that he could not recover from. Johnny Young felt the ring the winner but it would not be the last we would see of Paul Priest.

Marcus and John Fraust were pitted against each other in a KO Match. Before the match began, Tommy Violence came down to ringside to cheer on Marcus though he didn't stay for long. Marcus took an early lead in the match, making it look easy against his legendary opponent. Fraust turned the match around in his favor but Marcus didn't stay down for long. As the match went on, it appeared like Fraust didn't even care about the match. Marcus delivered an impressive Double Arm DDT that knocked Fraust out giving him a win.

Tommy V eventually pinned Max D for the win.

Bruno Kowalski and Katsutoshi found themselves in a war of words prior to the event culminating in a KO Match. Bruno found himself at a disadvantage as Katsutoshi's valet, Leiko, inserted herself in the match frequently by attacking anytime Bruno was near the ropes. It looked like the interference and Katsutoshi's speed was getting the best of Bruno, however, Bruno ultimately was able to overcome the odds and knock Katsutoshi out cold to win the match.

After winning a Fatal Four Way Number One Contender's Match at the last event, Tiger Johnson vowed to be the next NRWL Champion. Ash, the NRWL Champion, welcomed the challenge and both men fought in the main event of the evening with the title on the line. Ash maintained control of the match early on.

November 18 2012 Results

November 18th was a whirlwind night with incredible action that only the NRWL could bring you. It all started with a vengeful Mark Blood challenging Killer Malone to match. Prior to the event, John Fraust and Killer Malone planned an attack on Mark Blood. Fraust, a former trainer of Mark Blood, said that Blood was a disappointment. A sneak attack by Malone left Blood with a taste for revenge. At the start of the match, it was obvious that Mark Blood was not going to go down easily. He and Malone traded big blows and even harder slams throughout the match. Blood managed to survive a Beating by Malone and continued to fight on. Ultimately a second Beating was too much and Mark Blood was defeated.

At the last event, Paul Priest exchanged words, and fists (!!!), with Scotty Paris' valet, Trixie. On this night, Scotty was prepared to punish Priest for his actions. Joining Priest at ringside was one of his new cohorts, Tommy Violence. Priest and Scotty wrestled an evenly paced match trading pinfalls and finishing moves. The real action, however, happened outside the ring. Tommy V and Trixie began to argue outside the ring. The fans were conflicted as to where to focus their attention. As Paul Priest and Scotty Paris put on a clinic in the ring, Tommy and Trixie continued to argue all over the arena. Tommy tossed Trixie backstage, removing her from the match. Free from distraction, Tommy tried to interfere on Priest's behalf but was thrown out himself by the referee. Down to a one-on-one match, Scotty Paris came out on top with a pinfall over Paul Priest.

Ash's NRWL Championship victory at the last event was a turning point in his career and the NRWL as a whole. The accomplishment did not go unnoticed as Tommy V criticized Ash. When Ash came out to the ring and responded, Marcus, Mikey Armstrong, and Paul Priest joined him and proceeded to attack the new Champion. Marty Anderson and Balance came down to help Ash, setting up a six man tag match between Marty, Ash, and Balance against Tommy V, Marcus, and Mikey.

Tommy Violence started the match by running at Marty Anderson and getting the first shot. Both men brawl in the ring and Tommy maintaining an early control of the match. Multiple men enter the ring during a kickout attempt and in the brawl that followed, Ash accidentally knocked out the referee. The match continued with both teams showing great teamwork. The match stayed even throughout, keeping fans guessing at who would win. During another heated moment in the ring, Marcus inadvertently punched out the referee. The match continued until Balance was caught out of nowhere with a  powerslam by Marcus. Unable to kick out before the three count, Marcus, Tommy, and Mikey celebrated their big victory in the ring.

Fans around the world were talking about the upset victory Bruno Kowalski and Max Destruction had over the Sons of Darkness at the last event. To prove it was a fluke victory, SoD manager Nick Belhor demanded a no disqualification tornado tag rematch. As one would expect, this match was chaos from the moment the bell rang. Showing their larger opponents that their previous victory was no fluke, Bruno and Max held their own in the first minutes of the match. Max slammed Abbadon with the Maximum Destroyer on a chair. Max went for the pin while Bruno, using the same chair, beat Apollyon down to keep him from breaking up the count. Bruno and Max walked away with an impressive victory.

Katsutoshi continued to make a name for himself by challenging John Fraust to an Extreme Rules KO match. Saying that Fraust was washed up, he said he would put him down for good to do him a favor and reap the rewards for himself. Fraust attacked Katsutoshi backstage in response. When the bell rang, Katsutoshi wasted no time, displaying his speed advantage early in the match. After sparring in the ring, Katsutoshi grabbed a ladder and proceeded to beat John Fraust with it. Fraust responded by hitting Katsutoshi in the head with a steel chair, busting open his forehead. The match continued on the outside of the ring for the remainder of the match. After a back and forth fight, Fraust was caught by a spin kick to the head, knocking him out. Katsutoshi walked away with another big win.

To determine the number one contender for the NRWL Championship, Hardcore Adam, Johnny Young, Jacob Washington, and Tiger Johnson met in a Fatal Four Way match. This high energy match showcased four of the most hungry NRWL competitors on the roster. It was obvious that Johnny Young, the previous champion, was singled out as he took most of the attacks early on. Tiger Johnson powerbombed Johnny Young but learned an important lesson: in a Fatal Four Way match, you need to watch everyone. The pin attempt was broken up by the other competitors. The match had many close pinfalls. Late in the match, Johnny and Adam fought each other on one side of the ring while Jacob and Tiger fought on the other side. With Adam and Johnny distracted, Tiger Johnson pinned Jacob Washington to become number one contender.
