Rampage Pro Wrestling had its regular bi-weekly TV taping Saturday at Johnny G's Fun Center in Warner Robins, GA. Two weeks of shows were taped as well as two matches for the 30-minute Rampage Rewind program. There was a good crowd despite being without one of it's main TV outlets (more on that later.) I arrived late as I was unaware of the 7 pm start time but have results for the entire taping.
Taped for Rampage Rewind:
Mr. Jones defeated Preston Paradise
Simon Sermon deeated Drew Adler (Unsure if other members of Exotic Ones were at ringside for match.)
First hour:
Sugar Dunkerton defeated Anthony Andrews.
Usual Suspects (AJ Steele & Murder One) win versus Killer Instinct ("Mean" Mike Stratus & "The Real Deal" Jake Slater.)
"Marverlous" Michael Stevens defeats Tommy 2 Much (with Big Bank Barfield & Simon Sermon) Finish came when ref ejects Simon from ringside. He refuses to go and gets tangled up with ref. Usual Suspects sneak in, lay out Tommy and put Marv on top.
Shaun Banks retains the RPW Heavyweight Title by defeating Kyle Matthews (w/ Jimmy Rave.) Ref bump, The All Star (Cru Jones) comes and grabs the belt. Rave stops Jones from intefering but then whallops Matthews allowing Banks to hit a top rope elbow for the pin. Rave walks out before the match ends.

Hour two:
The All Star (Cru Jones) w/ "Coach Banks" (Shaun Banks wearing cut-off blue jean shorts, t-shirt, ballcap and barking over a megaphone) wins easily over Stiles Stevens.
After the match Jones calls out Sugar Dunkerton, noting that he "eats pieces of crap like him for breakfast." Dunkerton comes to the ring and points out that Jones just admitted to eating crap for breakfast then says "I'm done" and walks off leaving Jones to claim that wasn't what he meant.
"Do or Die" Chip Day VS Kyle Matthews was thrown out. Before the match began, Jimmy Rave comes to the ring. He claims to apologize, saying he was jealous of Matthews' opportunity. He tells Matthews "I have one thing to say to you. You've been replaced." Day attacks Matthews from behind and lays him out. Rave tells Matthews that he was nothing without him and calls him a loser. Rave spits on him before both he and day leave the ring.
RPW TV Champion J-Rod defeats Waylon Garrett. Wasn't announced as a title match.
Jimmy Rave (with Chip Day) defeated Heavyweight Champ Shaun Banks (with the All Star) by disqualificiation when Kyle Matthews attacked Rave. Both seconds were ejected from ringside during the match.
Notes: RPW has seen its coverage decrease as WGXA Fox 24 did not air the program this week and seemed unsure about its status for next week. The show airs weekly on Cox Cable 11 and Valley Cable in Fort Valley (both local access.) The only middle Georgia-wide broadcast of RPW is Rampage Rewind which airs Saturday and Sunday mornings at 2 am. They are in discussions with other Macon TV stations and are also looking to get TV access in Cordele so they can begin running cards there. Kyle Matthews is set to go on tour with Japan's Zero One.
The reason why Rampage Pro Wrestling has not been on WGXA Fox 24 is because of other programing including SEC Football and Major League Baseball.
