IZW Show Report For October 31

Posted: Nov 6th 2009 By: CMBurnham

IZW?s annual Halloween Hangover is less than one week away and it will be the biggest one to date. Scheduled for this year?s show is a tag title match between champions Arrogant Money and Nemesis, and a Handicap match between Johnny Z and Shane Rawls, and their opponent, the Real Deal Aaron Neil. If Johnny or Rawls win the match, the Wrecking Ball gets the Heavyweight championship. Also scheduled is a huge 20+ man Monster?s Bash battle royal for #1 contendership to the IZW championship. Last but not least, former WWE and WCW superstar Big Van Vader will make his much anticipated return to IZW.

On Halloween night, Commissioner Steve O told Ky-ote Joe, Montego Seeka and Jermaine Johnson that since they weren?t booked for Halloween Hangover, they would each be in matches to see it they would be entered into the Monster?s Bash battle royal. He would not let Johnson know his opponent, which frustrated him, but announced that Ky-ote and Seeka would face each other right then. They had a fast-paced match, but the Revolutionary Dane Griffin came out for an unknown reason. He then got Ky-ote Joe?s attention, which led to Seeka connecting with a ferocious kick for the win. Ky-ote and Seeka shook hands, but it was clear Joe was not pleased with Griffin. Seeka will now be in the Monster?s Bash.

Johnny Z and Shane Rawls then faced Kevin Morgan in a handicap match. They said that they would pretend that Kevin Morgan was actually Aaron Neil. Dane Griffin accompanied both men to the ring. But Ky-ote Joe came out and attacked Griffin in retaliation for earlier that night. The two men went at it and fought to the back. Jonny and Rawls showed what they plan to do to Neil at Halloween Hangover by double-teaming Morgan repeatedly before they were able to pin him. If that was an example of what they will be bringing against Neil, the Real Deal?s title reign could be in jeopardy. High Energy Jermaine Johnson?s opponent was revealed to be Wage. Beating him would be no easy task as Wage?s offense took a lot out of Johnson, but Johnson got the quick pin with a schoolboy to be entered into the Monster?s Bash.

A video was shown earlier in the night of Arrogant Money attacking Nemesis backstage. They beat Nemesis down with the belts, while Price added that after their title match at Halloween Hangover, the only thing Nemesis would remember is the lights over the ring, the Seed of Arrogance and the piledriver, 1-2-3. At the end of the night, Nemesis came to the ring looking for revenge and called out Price and Austin Tacious. They wanted their title shot that night. Arrogant Money came out and Mr. Money said that it would be the same in the ring as it was backstage earlier. He initially refused to give them their title shot yet, but then he changed his mind and confidently accepted. The match started, both teams bringing new tag team maneuvers that devastated their opponents. All of a sudden, Nemesis hit a neckbreaker/top rope splash combo that earned them the win and the tag team titles?or so it seemed. As they celebrated with the crowd, Steve O appeared on stage. He said that since he was the only one who could make matches, this match never actually happened. He was taking the titles back. He said that the match would happen at Halloween hangover like he had arranged. Nemesis was furious as they had to hand the belts back.

What will happen on November 7th at Halloween Hangover? Will Arrogant Money retain their belts or will Nemesis become the new tag champs? Will Aaron Neil keep his title reign alive or will we see a new IZW Champion in the Wrecking Ball? Who will the 20+ man Monster?s Bash to become the new #1 Contender to the Heavyweight championship? And what effect will former IZW Champion Big Van Vader?s presence have? What announcements will Johnny Z?s brother Jeff make as he promised, and what surprises await IZW fans? Come see firsthand as all these questions and more get answered at IZW?s Halloween Hangover.
