Compound Pro Wrestling review (9-16-17)

Posted: Sep 18th 2017 By: Josh C. Jones

Thank you to the competitors: Aaron Anders, Justin D’Air (aka: Neon Icon), Dimitri Alexandrov, Latrell Upton, Kirk ‘Cha-Cha’ Chalmers, Chris Morrison, Psycho Sawyer, Armin Syzlack, Michael Wolf, ‘Fear the Fro’ Nathan Estrada, ‘Darling’ Dustin Heritage, Super Genie and Sabu.

A more than packed house for the one and only ‘The homicidal, suicidal, genocidal, death-defying maniac’ Sabu!!!!

The night opened with Aaron Anders versus a newcomer to Compound Pro, Neon Icon. Neon has such a unique entrance that describing it in words does not capture the awesomeness; it is an entrance you need to experience in person. But, I will try anyway. The arena goes dark; the crowd gets silent, and Neon’s music hits. Then, appearing from the ring entrance are strings of neon lights in the shape of a person. Protruding from the neon figure are more neon light beams blasting through the crowd. Imagine Chris Jericho’s entrance with the light up jacket, except this is, at the least, 10x better. Like I said, it’s something to witness in person. Their match was energetic with some cool new moves pulled off by Neon Icon; yet, I was more impressed with his ability to keep up with the former Compound Pro Champ Aaron Anders. Neon brings high energy and a joyful attitude to the ring completely relishing in the moment with the fans and his competitor.

Latrell Upton took on the ‘Russian Renegade, Saint of St. Petersburg, Siberian Savior, Moscow Messiah, and most IMPORTANTLY … sworn enemy to all Bears Everywhere’, Dimitri Alexandrov. Sadly, the three times I’ve seen Latrell wrestle he has not been the victor. But, his career is just beginning and, even though he is still ‘the new guy’, he continues to challenge veteran wrestlers that, at this point-in-time, are at a higher level. This isn’t meant as a dis to Latrell, it just shows that he is not afraid of a challenge and, although he has once again lost, even at the get-go of his career he can stand toe-to-toe with the best.

Mor-ri-son, Mor-ri-son, Mor-ri-son! Yes, I was the only one that I know of cheering for Morrison this time as he took on Kirk ‘Cha-Cha’ Chalmers. Even though Cha-Cha would strike back and demonstrate his resilience by continually kicking out of the three-count, it was Morrison who had the upper hand throughout the majority of the match. Even so, Morrison’s toughness could not stop the Cha-Cha train from regaining its track and cha-chaing his way to victory.

Armin Syzlack did it! Yes folks, you read that right. He did it!!! Armin Syzlack is determined to reign supreme terror over Psycho Sawyer and, once again, challenged him to another match. I am impressed with his tenacity to try and try in his attempts to beat Psycho and increase his reign of terror – not to mention his power. Syzlack can slap a person so hard it knocks them off their feet. He demonstrated this power in the ring by slapping himself, with the help of Psycho of course, and knocking himself clear off his feet. Amazing! Oh, yea; what Syzlack did. His reign of terror increased from one-minute fifteen-seconds to one-minute twenty-eight seconds. Even though Psycho is too big, too strong, and too psycho for Syzlack it is still a joy to watch these two continue to battle. Eventually Syzlack will have his day, I mean, even a blind squirrel finds a nut sooner or later, right?

Michael Wolf, the Compound Pro Champion, fought Mr. ‘Fear the Fro’ himself, Nathan Estrada. Estrada has skills and always knows how to get the crowd pumped and chanting; and although he put up a fantastic effort the Wolf did not Fear the Fro. Instead, Michael Wolf showed why he is the Compound Pro Champion, enduring and overcoming.

Dustin Heritage began the night by cowardly attacking Neon Icon from behind after Neon’s great match with Aaron Anders. He, along with ‘The Kingpin’ Mike Iles, might have done serious damage to Neon if not for Sabu rushing to Neon’s aide. Dustin subsequently fled while the crowd chanted, “Sabu, Sabu, Sabu.”

Sabu and Dustin’s match was amazing. They did have their back-to-back moments of lead changes, but overall it was Sabu in charge. He hit Dustin with a chair so many times in the face and head I was surprised Dustin wasn’t carried out of the arena. No, Dustin took the hits and kept fighting back. However, Dustin’s tenacity wasn’t enough to overcome Sabu. In fact, Sabu ended the match after leg dropping a chair on Dustin, putting Dustin through a table. It was awesome! After the match the arena was filled with clapping and cheers for Sabu along with the chant, “Please come back.” I hope Sabu and the Super Genie enjoyed their time at Compound Pro in Tulsa, OK and we do hope they return soon.

Thank you again to everyone who competed and helped put on another great show at Compound Pro.

Don’t miss out on the fun and entertainment at Compound Pro Wrestling in Tulsa, OK. Every Saturday night at 8:00 p.m. at the Perfect Practice Athletic Center in the North-West corner at 51st and Sheridan.
