Episode five of Wrestling Society X opens with a recap of Ricky Banderas throwing a fireball in Vampiro's face from the end of episode four.
The future Mil Muertes has taken umbrage with Vampiro because of an exploding casket; The Acme Corporation strikes again.
The rapper Jibbs is the guest commentator tonight. 'Member Jibbs?
Some years have passed since I first started these reviews and WSX's ring announcer/ carnival barker has been a very busy man. Fabian Kaelin, as played by Ryan Katz, has appeared on WWE RAW as
Stylez Monroe in Kane and Daniel Bryan's brilliant anger management segments.
In May 2015, Katz became a creative producer for WWE's NXT brand and has appeared on screen again, first as The Lemon, a member of Adam Rose's Rosebuds.
Secondly, being the barker featured in the titantron for The Vaudevillians.
After Kaelin does his spiel and the damn ring posts explode again, we get our first match of the night; a tag match pitting Team Dragon Gate(Yoshini and Horiguchi)
against The Filth and The Fury, the team of Straight-Edge Matt Cross and pot smoker extraordinaire Teddy Hart.
Hart and Yoshini start things off by trading arm drags, Japanese and otherwise, double tag is made and the spots start.
Cross fakes a suicide plancha and proceeds to parkour.
Jibbs is just happy to be there, barely pipping in unless prompted.
Team Dragon Gate start double teaming Cross once the action is back in the ring, but Cross comes back with the Jackie Chan and a fireman's carry neckbreaker, or if you want to be fancy, an ushigoroshi.
Commentary mentions that every match is falls count anywhere, something I don't remember, but it's been awhile, and on that note, it's time to go home.
Teddy Hart hits a flipping tiger driver and then both Filth and Fury perform stereo top rope splashes; a shooting star press and a corkscrew senton.
The Lovely Lacey of Ring of Honor is backstage with Scorpio Sky, fresh off his loss from Matt Sydal in episode 4. Sky challenges Jack Evans to a match, as Evans defeated Sydal and Sydal defeated him.
Shut up Harold! |
Second match of the night is the Human Tornado vs 6-Pac. Tornado is out for revenge for being laid-off by Pac in the last episode.
Tornado wastes little time, kicking Pac out of the ring and following up with a flip, nearly landing on his feet.
They brawl a bit outside before getting back in the ring. Pac is able to gain control with the Bronco Buster, but misses a second attempt, letting Tornado have a House Party.
A battle on the top turnbuckle ends with a super X-Factor and the win for 6-Pac.
During a commercial break, Team Dragon Gate get abducted by some guys in a white van, possibly the same guys who kidnapped Samoa Joe.
Tonight's main event is the masked Delikado vs Arik Cannon.
Delikado is South California mainstay B-Boy, another WSX alumnus who would be a part of Lucha Underground; B-Boy portrayed Bael, the guy Matanza ate.
Delikado Pearl Harbors Cannon and commentary mentions that he never talks so he can never be called a snitch.
This match is cut short about ten moves in due to interference from a group of men we would later learn are The Cartel.
Cannon is double-stomped through a table, has his head shoved in wet cement, and finally, the final insult, a dead fish placed on his chest.
A dead fish named Lana
