Wrestling is Fun 02/23/2013 show
OK the ring announcer is dressed up like a pirate I think.
Dasher Hatfield
Seen Frightmare before and he is decent. No idea who Dasher is. But he has this weird baseball looking mask. For some reason there is a guy dressed up like a bottle of mustard out in the crowd.
Frightmare keeps scaring Dasher. So Dasher exits the ring and goes and gets a kid out of the audience wearing a Frightmare mask. And they hide in the elevator. Frightmare goes looking for Dasher and gets scared by the kid. OK that guy isn't a giant bottle of mustard,he is a giant banana.Dasher seems to be more of a 80s power style wrestler. Where as Frightmare is very lucha inspired.The crowd seems to be behind both guys. Dasher has Frightmare in a surfboard and the crowd starts clapping to help Frightmare break the hold. The commentators keep talking about how Dasher has only lost one match so far in Wrestling is Fun.Dasher hits a nice looking jackhammer off the second rope. But Frightmare manages to kick out at 2.Frightmare ends up winning with a crucifix bomb. What a fun match.
Stigma
VS
Maybe this is why the announcer is dressed up as a pirate. I wonder if he will wrestle with the eye patch on? Something about Stigma's mask reminds me of Shark Boy.Stigma does a neck breaker over the top rope and knocks Jolly's eye patch and bandana off. Both guys end up brawling outside the ring. With Stigma landing some stiff shots. Jolly Roger comes back with some quick kicks. But it isn't enough to get a three count. Roger hits a springboard elbow drop. But again it isn't enough to get the pin. Roger ends up getting the pin.
Kimber Lee
VS
Kimber is working some kind of princess gimmick. And Saturyne is doing a luchadore gimmick.Kimber demands Saturyne kisses her foot. And when she won't do it Kimber pitches a fit.Saturyne is amazingly fast in the ring.Kimber keeps cheating and doing all kinds of heelish stuff. Kimber keeps doing all kinds of power moves. And also keeps playing to the crowd. Saturyne uses that to her advantage and nails Kimber with a huge top rope drop kick. Holy Shit KImber nails Saturyne with a release German Suplex. But it isn't enough to get a 3 count. Finally Saturyne nails a springboard cross body and gets the pin. Damn that was one of the better women's matches I have seen in a long time. After the pin Kimber attacks and beats the hell out of Saturyne.
Batiri
VS
Latvian Proud Oak
Someone threw a roll of toilet paper into the ring when the Batiri entered. OH Crap Thunderfrog is doing the THOR AS A FROG gimmick from the old comic book!!!!!!! So we have ThorFrog and a tree vs 2 Misfit era Danzig ripoffs. Just noticed Proud Oak wrestles barefoot.Thunderfrog nails one of the Batiri with a huge kick to the face. Proud Oak goes into some kind of yoga pose,and the unmasked Batiri guy keeps on trying to pin him. But since Proad Oak is in a ball shape he can't be pinned. Ok one of the commentators made a Herb from Burger King reference. Ok this match is just so wacky. The Batiri are great and keepign Proad Oak from tagging in Thunderfrog.Oak finally makes the tag and Thunderfrog hits the ring. He nails the unmasked Batiri guy with a Polish Hammer.OH SHIT THUNDERFROG DOES A DOUBLE BEARHUG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It seems the masked Batiri is named Kobald. Batiri hits Thunderfrog with the Demon toilet. They go for the pin but Proad Oak breaks up the pin attempt.Kobald ends up slapping the camera man who is up on the apron.Kobald takes too long with his top rope move and Proad Oak gets out of the way. Then Thunderfrog and Proad Oak do a wacky double team move to get the pin.
Oleg the Usurper
Oleg looks like the Berserker and Conan the Barbarian had a special needs kid. ANd Lance Steel looks like a early 90s Image comics superhero. So far all the gimmick is in WIF remind of how GLOW was back in the 80s.Oleg being the bigger and most likely stronger of the two. Nice spot where Oleg keeps chopping Lance Steel in his obviously plastic chest piece armor.Oleg ends up throwing Lance off the top rope to the hard gym floor.Lance Steel gets a piggy back ride from the ref and nails Oleg with a fist to the face. Steel finally gets Oleg into a Boston Crab. But Oleg quickly gets out of it. Oleg wins after slapping Steel hard on the side of the head. As he is leaving Oleg goes over and beats up the Banana guy.
Juan Francisco De Coronado
VS
Wow Juan must be tiny cause he makes Quack look tall. And I know Quack is under 6 foot. Juan drops Mike with a stiff ass punch. But Mike returns the favor.And then hits a nice monkey flip,followed by another.Both guys end up outside the ring. And Quack does a running bodyslam to the floor to Juan.Lots of fast paced back and forth action.Juan does a impressive german suplex. But Mike kicks out at 2. Juan wins with a victory roll,but only cause his manager holds down Quackenbush's foot.
Devastation Corporation
VS
The Colony
This should be good. I have seen the Colony a few times and they are always entertaining. The commentators play up how Fire Ant and Green Ant are much smaller than their opponants.This is your classic tag match where one team is big power guys vs two smaller faster guys.Fire Ant takes a shitpile of punishment. Then he finally makes the hot tag to Green Ant. Who enters the ring with a missile dropkick.The Colony do some nice doubleteaming. And the Colony wins by countout.
Mr Touchdown Mark Angelosotti
vs
Hallowicked
Never seen Mr Touchdown before,but have seen Hallowicked and he is decent.Touchdown starts on about how since Hallowicked wears a mask,he will wear one. So Mr Touchdown goes and puts on a football helmet. Reminds me of the battle royal in mid south where Terry Gordy came out wearing a football helmet. Pretty fun match. With Touchdown doing lots of powermoves and Hallowicked doing his lucha based stuff.Really surprised how agile Mr Touchdown is. HHAHAH MR Touchdown does the Tebow pose! But Hallowicked makes a comeback. And the crowd is really behind Hallowicked.But that is stopped when Mr Touchdown nails a wicked Superplex.But it isn't enough to get the pin.Finally Touchdown cheats and keeps the Banana. Yes the big title in WIF is a Banana. A regular Banana.
Wow what a fun and wacky show. I will have to check out more Wrestling is Fun shows.
