AWF PRESENTS SUMMER EXPLOSION

Here in the professional Wrestling World of Arizona we have something called the Arizona Wrestling Federation (AWF). If you live in the Metro Phoenix area (Hell anywhere in Arizona) and you are a wrestling fan and don’t know/attend AWF: WHY THE HELL NOT!!!

This past July 30th, the AWF put on their SUMMER EXPLOSION event – and literal blew every other wrestling event away. SUMMERSLAM? Hell No. SUMMER EXLOSION? HELL YES.

Before I give me comments on the event, I want to list all the Talent at this event and the matches.

Summer Explosion Card

Keepers of the Faith versus The Bonus Boys 

• The Bonus Boys gained their biggest wins to date over one of the Best Tag Team in the World.

Lawrence Tyler versus Chris Evans

• Awesome, hard hitting match that saw LT barely come out with the win.

Mystiq versus Heather Monroe

• Heather Monroe made her AWF and did her best, but wasn’t quite up to the challenge of Mystiq, who put her away after a terrific woman’s match

Six Pack Challenge for the #1 Contendership to the State Title.

• Jakob Allan Young, Suede Thompson, Daniel Sanchise, Owen Travers, Douglas James and Vega all put on an epic, high flying hard hitting, spill-out-of-the-ring match which saw Vega ultimately win a shot at Evan Daniels.

AWF State Championship: Exciting Evan Daniels versus Vega

• It was not an exciting night for Daniels as he lost the AWF title

TO ALEXANDER HAMMERSTONE!!! (YES, HE IS BACK)

AWF Tag Team Championship: Southwest Dream Team (c) versus Super Nicktendo

• The Awesome One and Danny G rose the occasion and ended the game challenge of Super Nicktendo, keeping their titles.

2 on 3 Casket Match: Aydan Colt and Spray Boy Roy versus R-Three

• Wow. Great match, all three guys delivered but Colt/Boy eventually learned the fatality of facing R-Three as both went into the casket.

AWF Heavyweight Championship: Alvaric Reiner (c) versus Big Duke

• Reiner retained in a hard fought match that also involved Duke’s partner Suede Thompson and the tag team of Mason and Jax.

AWF Summer Explosion was a near perfect wrestling show. Seriously. Simply put, this was the best wrestling live event I have ever attended. That includes all previous AWF Show, all indie shows, RAW, SMACKDOWN, TNA Shows, WRESTLEMANIAS.

From the opening match to the final title match and the Casket Match in-between there was not a bad match on the card, nor a bad moment.

Everyone on the card (even talent I will admit to not being a big fan of) delivered.

The Bonus Boys stepped up their game and came away with the biggest win of their careers against the epic team of the Keepers of the Faith, shocking the crowd.

Jakob Allan Young and Douglas James both shined in the Six Pack Challenge – even if neither won.

R-Three and Aydan Colt delivered as always – but Spray Boy Roy was the true star of the Casket Match. Roy proved that why he is infinitely hateable, he has also infinitely improved since he was first seen over a year ago.

This card had two beautiful women smack each other down in a match the WWE (and TNA right now) wishes they had on a weekly basis.

We had beautiful woman, an epic casket match, and three title matches, but all that was topped by a surprising reveal. The luchador Vega unmasked after winning the State Title to reveal Alexander Hammerstone!

This became the true story of Summer Explosion – Hammerstone is back and gained some revenge after losing a loser-leaves-the-AWF match. Instead of stripping the non-contracted Hammerstone, the boss made a match for OVERDRIVE (8/27), a rematch for the title, and a contract on the line for Hammerstone.

Without any doubt Summer Explosion set the desert on Fire.

Final Thoughts:

I cannot call a match of the night because every match was that good, and all the talent shone.

The show was the match of the night.

Rating: 9.8 (it loses .2 because it had to end)
