FCW house show report June 24, 2011 Bradenton, Fla. at McKechnie Field Report by Ryan, PWTorch reader
I attended Friday night's "Swashbucklers and Turnbuckles" event in Bradenton, Florida. FCW was scheduled to do a full show, free of charge, after the Bradenton Marauders baseball game. It was a rainy day, so I wasn't sure what was going to happen. It started raining about halfway through the baseball game, but lightened up by the time the FCW show was going to start. They set up a ring near the concession & picnic table areas.
What was originally advertised to be an eight-match card turned out to be only five matches, but all in the pouring rain! Despite the reduced number of matches, the rain made it an unforgettable experience! The wrestling started around 10:20 p.m. and ended around 11:00 p.m.
Match Results
(1) NXT Rookie Titus O'Neil defeated Brad Maddox after hitting his powerbomb. (moderate rain)
(2) Husky Harris & Rick Victor defeated Richie Steamboat & a partner whose name I didn't catch via roll-up, after Richie argued with his partner. Richie superkicked him after the match. (light rain)
(3) Aksana won a Divas Battle Royale. (light rain)
TylerBlack_torch2_1.jpg (4) Seth Rollins (Tyler Black) & Hunico & Epico defeated Big E. Langston & a couple other heels. (heavy rain)
(5) Bo Rotundo defeated Damien Sandow after a spear. Damien played a great heel, as he brought an umbrella to the ring and cut a promo saying how he was being forced to compete in bad weather. He kept "slipping" in the ring during and after the match. (heavy rain)
I also spotted Ricky Steamboat, Tom Prichard, Trent Barreta, Derrick Bateman, and Peter Orlov at ringside.
It was truly a unique show! Some Tweets afterward from some of the performers:
-- A.J.: "Just wrestled ten Divas in the rain and in what I can only believe was someone's dream sequence."
-- Seth Rollins: "Wrestled in the pouring rain for the first time in my near 7 year career. It was awesome. Kind of made me realize I’ve been having a lot of fun in FCW. But at the same time I can’t wait to get on the road and take WWE…and the world..by storm. I’m as ready as I’ll ever be and in my heart of hearts I feel that my time is near."
-- Trent Barreta - About to win a dance-off at some baseball game. Here's me with some dude. img.ly/5s94.----------------------------------------------
I've never heard of wrestling in the rain but I guess some had fun with it so that's cool. | |
