Click here to watch this event on GoFightLive!

ROH – Best in the World 2011 lived up to the hype and delivered what many are already calling the Match of the Year between Eddie Edwards and Davey Richards for the ROH World Title. The night also saw the excellent ROH tag team division on display as the World’s Greatest Tag Team (Shelton Benjamin and Charlie Haas) took on The Kings of Wrestling (Chris Hero and Claudio Castagnoli), The All Night Express (Rhett Titus and Kenning King) and Jay and Mark Briscoe for the ROH World Tag Team Championship. As usual, ROH also gave the fans an undercard with action-packed wrestling, and high-energy drama.

In the main event, after a hard-hitting, knock-down-drag-out match, Davey Richards defeated Eddie Edwards to capture the ROH World Championship. In a contest that lasted over 35 minutes, and told an intense story inside of the squared circle, you couldn’t help but get hypnotized by the suburb execution of wrestling moves including several near falls and near submissions that had the crowd in the Manhattan Center – Hammerstein Ballroom and at home watching via iPPV on the edge of their seats. For Edwards, who won the title three months ago in an upset, this match reinforced why he was such a great champion and elevated the belt during his title run. What was to be Richards last time challenging for the ROH Title turned out to be the start of his first reign as World Champion and places him as the cornerstone for ROH moving forward.

In the co-main event, the World’s Greatest Tag Team defended their ROH World Titles against an onslaught of aforementioned challengers. In a match that lasted 40 minutes, Benjamin and Haas proved that the name of their tag team is no gimmick; these two grapplers ARE the world’s greatest tag team. After the winning pinfall, the Briscoes attacked the WGTT with steel chairs which is sure to spark up a new rivalry between the consummate professionals and the violent hooligans.

In other action, El Generico won the ROH TV Title as he defeated Christopher Daniels after a fast-paced wrestling clinic that saw El Generico go hold for hold with the great Daniels.

Best in the World 2011, was ROH’s greatest show in some time, which is saying a lot. The main event is the finest pro wrestling match you are going to see all year and maybe for the next couple of years. ROH has all of the pieces in place to continue to push the evolution of pro wrestling forward. Don’t miss this Match of the Year and Card of the Year!

WSU presents “The Uncensored Rumble IV”

Click here to watch this event on GoFightLive!

Women Superstars Uncensored (WSU) presented another action packed event with Uncensored Rumble IV and proved once again why they are the #1 women’s pro wrestling organization in the United States. The 3+ hour event had the crowd on its feet throughout the show and displayed the kind of in-ring action and cutting edge promos that WSU is famous for.

In the main event and in a bit of a shocker, Lexxus of the Boston Shore overcame unbelievable odds to win the Uncensored Rumble and become the number one contender for the WSU World Championship. Lexxus outlasted competitors like Serena Deeb, Jessicka Havoc and a host of other battle-tested women in her improbable victory. Lexxus was the first person in the ring to start the rumble, and when it was all over, she was the last women standing. Lexxus already holds 1/2 of the WSU World Tag Team Championship and now is in a position to add more hardware to her collection and capture the world title at WSU’s next pay-per-view. But who will she be facing in the title fight?

In the WSU World Title fight, Mercedes Martinez defended her title for the 44th time in a 30-month title reign and for the 44th time she was successful as she defeated Brittney Savage. The match looked like it would end with Savage being crowned the winner, and new WSU Champion, when Savage hit her patented Ace Crusher. Martinez was able to lift her leg up and hang her foot on the bottom rope, requiring the ref to break the action, but the “striped shirt” missed the call. Luckily the call was reversed by the senior referee and the match was restarted. Savage went for the Ace Crusher one time too many as Martinez countered and landed the Fisherman Buster for the pinfall to retain the WSU World Championship. For Martinez, it was another gritty performance and proved why she is in a league of her own.

There was plenty more action on this stacked card, including Sassy Stephi defending her WSU Spirit Championship, the Boston Shore (Amber and Lexxus) defending their WSU World Tag Team Championship, along with a barn burner of a match between Serena Deeb versus Nikki Roxx. See the WSU debut of Jillian Hall, the eight-person tag team match, Alicia versus Jessicka Havok with Uncensored Rules, and the drama and emotion exemplified in the Retirement Match with Cindy Rogers versus Allison Danger.

WSU – Uncensored Rumble IV had several exciting matches from top to bottom, highlighted by a great world title match and an awesome Uncensored Rumble playing to a packed crowd for 3+ hours.

Death Match Tournament: – Ignition

Click here to watch this event on GoFightLive!

Death Match Tournament (DMT) – Ignition brought down the house at the Casa Del Mexico in Los Angeles, California with a hardcore, violent and brutal display of action inside the squared circle. With “The Franchise” Shane Douglas doing color commentary, this event was a wild ride down memory lane and also a look forward at the future of hardcore wrestling as DMT set itself apart from its hardcore counterparts. The wrestlers performed many high risk stunts and took a great amount of punishment to the delight of the vocal and highly charged crowd. Nobody does hardcore wrestling like the Death Match Tournament!

In the main event, Balls Mahoney defeated Necro Butcher with a body slam after a culmination of a bloody gore fest that can only be described as measured brutality. The match had all the pieces of what you would come to expect from the ECW veteran Mahoney and the Independent maniac, Butcher. When these two deranged individuals get into the ring there is only one thing that can happen, VIOLENCE. There were blunt objects, sharp objects, barbed wire, chairs, and bloodâ?¦ lots of blood. Before all was said and done, Mahoney was cut deep on the forehead and arm, but it was Necro Butcher who wore a crimson mask for most of the battle. The ECW Original showed that he was still too hardcore and after the final bell got a rousing round of applause from the rabid crowd.

In the co-main event, Mad Man Pondo defeated Mosh Pit Mike in a Light Tubes Match. Mad Man Pondo with light tubes in his grip is like Van Gogh with a paint brush, pure artistry. The creativity of aggression was something to behold, as Mad Man delivered shot after shot on Mosh Pit’s head and body. But to his credit, Mosh Pit Mike gave almost as good as he got, bloodying up Pondo’s head and cutting him so deep that he had a piece of glass stuck in his head throughout the whole match. With broken glass everywhere, so much in fact that many fans left their glass riddled seats for cover, it was a vicious headshot from a STOP sign that ended Mosh Pit Mike’s night.

In other action, Carnage battled Youth Suicide in a 4-Corner Barbwire Board with 10,000 Thumbtacks Match. Corporal Robinson took on B.C. Killer in a Tai Pai Psychopathic Death Match, while Amanda fought Mickie Knuckles in a Rat Traps Match. All this and even MORE!

DMT has cornered the market on over the top, extreme pro wrestling. Witness all the bloodshed and carnage in this unique pay-per-view where only the violent survive.
