THIS TENTACLE WAS CAUGHT SNEAKING BACKSTAGE |
Anytime you go to Japan, you want to put on a good show. The Japanese are conossiours of wrestling, and are probably the most adept at telling good match from a dud. They're also some of the hardest to truly please. So whenver FFW goes to Japan, well, the pressure's on to deliver.
We did with flying colors, giving the Land of the Rising Sun an epic Trios match, a title change, and one hell of a brutal Pennyzirra beatdown.
Anyways, the final tally for October's penultimate show? Read on!
1. SUNNY KYOUN: The Little Korean That Could became the first person to do what no one had been able to accomplish in twelve matches: Pin Aimee Easter. As a result the Witches Brew is looking more and more scary a challenger for the P&P Express.
2. IGNIS: Say what you will about her attitude, but her decision to go solo paid off grandly as Ignis captured her first ever FFW Singles title, and her third total. She won't have much time to gloat, though, not with Gabrielle Crimson coming at her in a month.
3. WENDY BRIESE: Briese wasn't in the trios match very long, but when she was, she was on fire. Also helped clear the ring to set up Sunny's epic pinfall reversal. Wendy's tag experience finally paying off with her for some wins.
4. CASEY ATHERTON: Anytime you take your first singles loss in 14 months, it sucks. But Atherton's Five and a half month reign as FS Champ did wonders to establish the title, and while it never will have the prestige the Evolution, NS, and UV titles have, it's certainly become a division worth watching.
5. STEPHANIE DALLINS: While Sunny got the glory, Steph certainly did her part too, holding her own with Lightning. Two weeks can't come soon enough for the Brew.
6. TARA THUNDER: Trios loss snaps a six-math winning streak for the No Surrender Champion, but hey, at least she's back in the ring!
7. PENNY BUCHANAN: The Ultraviolence Champion is making it look easy, dispatching Sophia Black in brutal fashion through two tables. Survival of the fittest is the Pain Train's mantra.
8. LIGHTNING: For a bit there, Sparky seemed to be still in the Candi doldrums, but she snapped out of it. Still, she's gotta be sick of being tossed around by Steph Dallins by this point.
9. MADELYNE MCTAGGERT: Maddy induces a "When it rains, it pours" mentality to wrestling. You're going along, just fine, and suddenly low blow, exposed turnbuckle, match over. It's like shes the Oregon Ducks of cheating.
10. METEORA: Where Maddy went for effectiveness, the Rudos went for pure mass-production. It's not often you watch an accomplished official like Melinda Davis be driven to tears.
11. AIMEE EASTER: First time pinned? CHeck. Four match winning streak snapped? Check. Think she'll take it lying down? Well, technically she did, but look for a far more fired up Easter when she defends against Witches Brew
12. STARDUST: I thought the Ass-Bomb thing was a joke. Either way, Stardust's quick thinking saved the match for her team, and set up Meteora's win.
13. FREYA KANE: Poor Freya just can't catch a break, sitting at 0-3, with all of her losses coming by bullshit. Considering Destiny Campbell is no saint herself, she needs to work on finding ways to get through it.
14. TIFA HEAFY: Tifa needed confidence, and Michelle Taylor is a great way to get some. Hopefully she can build off ofit, and maybe get some of that can-do attitude into her tag partner as well.
15. LAURA STELE: It's not that Crystallized Steele got outwrestled. It's that they got OUTCHEATED. The Rudos took their bread and butter and stuffed it down their throats, and they didn't use the butter as lube. That's gotta be more embarassing than any pinfall.
16. SOPHIA BLACK: Four in a row now for Sophia, who's once promising run seems to be over. Although to be fair, beating Penny is a tall order for anyone.
17. CRYSTAL HATE: Laura's Rod of Sophistication apparently, well... HATES the Hate sisters, as both took the brunt of it quite fiercely. I think the fans enjoyed it happening to Crystal more than they did Becka though.
18. MICHELLE TAYLOR: TEN!
