NWA Power results: Women's TV title match

This week's NWA Power was the fourth TV taping from Studio One in Highland Park, IL. I believe this is the final taping from here before NWA 75 later this month, but don't quote me on that. Joe Galli and Tim Storm were on the call per usual.

Chris Adonis defeated Dak Draper and Damage (w/ Aron Stevens) in a three-way

Most of this was just two guys fighting while another watched or sat outside. It's how WWE used to do it and it makes no sense. A lot of it was Damage working over Draper while fighting off Adonis. Draper actually hit a gut-wrench power bomb onto Damage, but Adonis broke up the pin with a Master Lock. Once Draper fought out, Stevens used the loaded glove on Draper and Adonis locked in another Master Lock for the win. I'm tot sure why Stevens helped Adonis here, but perhaps we'll find out.

Judais defeated Gaagz The Gymp in a submission match

This went about as well as you'd think. You got a guy in a Gymp outfit that's about 5'7 against a caveman that's about the size of a mountain.

The start was just Judais trying to catch Gaagz from running away from him. Gaagz finally snuck up behind him and tried to lock in a sleeper hold, but he couldn't even get that. After raking Judais' eyes, Gaagz locked in a dragon sleeper which was easily fought out of. Judais really dominated from here which Gaagz started enjoying. He liked being choked and even gyrated in the air. (I can count about six kids in the front row under the age of 14, by the way.) 

After Judais' crucifixion, Jeremiah Plunkett came out to try and stop the action and got chokeslammed. Sal the Pal then came out and threw in the towel. This ended up being the longest match on the show. Never again, please.

- May Valentine was in the back with NWA US Tag Team Champs The Country Gentlemen. They tried to run damage control about their loss last week. They talked about how they didn't lose, they just learned, and how they don't lose when it matters which is when the championships are on the line.

Fodder & Joe Alonzo (w/ Angelina Love) defeated Eric Jackson & Robert Anthony

Jackson and Anthony cut off the ring on Fodder at the start. They were dominant in the early going. Alonzo was able to distract Jackson to set up a tag. I really liked the heel vs. heel dynamic in this one. Anthony eventually got the hot tag, but Alonzo had the same opportunity and didn't take it. He stayed in the match and hit a rolling death valley driver onto Anthony for the surprise win. I actually liked quite a bit.

- It was time for the weekly DLZ update. He talked about the NWA Tag Team Champions La Rebelion and the Women's TV Champion Kenzie Paige. He also announced Mims is cleared for action and will have a match next week. He also had a fun interaction with Austin Idol.

- May Valentine was with La Rebelion and talked about a six-man tag next week with the Brothers of Funstruction. Vampiro cut a promo on them and how famous he is and how good Bestia and Mecha Wolf are. La Rebelion was one of the things I really took seriously in this company and they're feuding with two clowns right now, so there's that.

NWA Women's TV Champion Kenzie Paige vs. Angelina Love went to a time limit draw

Love was just out at ringside for Fodder's win and now she has a title shot. Paige started by telling Love how much she respects her and loves her, but commentary pointed out it was just a plea to extend the time. Love started actually wrestling and Paige took it as an offense. She tripped Love into the corner and really took advantage. Once Love fought back in, she took Paige around the world to every turnbuckle, but Paige rolled out to stall some more. She baited Love outside and went right back on the offensive. At about the one-minute mark, Love hit a surprise Botox Injection kick. The champion rolled to the outside, so Love tried to get her back in twice and time ran out, so Paige retained as the 6:05 time limit ran out.

- Violent J of the Insane Clown Pose was at a studio after this match and he announced that he's coming to NWA 75 at the end of the month.

- May Valentine was with Pretty Empowered and they have a chance at the Women's Tag Team titles again at NWA 75 if they win a match next week. Who will be competing is a mystery though.

Silas Mason (w/ Alex Taylor & Ricky Morton) defeated Koa Laxamana (w/ Kallies)

This was advertised as an Laxamana open challenge. He was in the ring with Kyle Davis and he cut a promo on how Kerry Morton cost him his match against Ricky Morton a few weeks ago. He challenged Kerry to a match but Ricky and Taylor came out instead. Ricky told him he didn't want that smoke or the Morton fever. He said he still has an opponent for him: Silas Mason.

Mason started the match with a uranage that almost took Laxamana out of his boots. A German suplex followed and it looked rough for Koa already. Mason even stuck Koa's fingers inside the turnbuckle where it connects to the ring post and almost broke his fingers. "The Thrillbilly" was really throwing this guy around like a rag doll. Laxamana finally fought back into it, but Mason quickly caught him into a surprise Thrillride for the easy win.

After the match, Ricky grabbed the mic and asked for a kiss from Kallies. Kallies slapped the taste out of his mouth. Mason then also asked for his own slap and got it. Kallies and Laxamana then hauled it out of there to end the show.
