BAKERSFIELD, CALIF. (VP) – October is associated with Halloween, which besides candy and costumes, is often associated with horror, darkness, and death. One week before Halloween, Vendetta Pro Wrestling held an event at The Dome. On this night, The Dome became... the Terror Dome!
While the word 'vendetta' may be part of the name, it is a word fitting a number of rivalries, including the ongoing battle between the Ballard Brothers and the team known as SU/KA, the heated saga between Nathan Graves and Jody Kristofferson, and the continuing war between Val Venis and Rik Luxury for the Vendetta Pro Heavyweight Championship. Would things be settled on this night, or would things only intensify? Could new rivalries heat up as well? Here now are the results from Vendetta Pro Wrestling: TERROR DOME!
Opening Triforce Match
Ricky Ruffin
-vs.-
Latin Dragon
-vs.-
Kyu
A “Triforce” match is a Triple-Threat Elimination style match, and this one began with Ricky Ruffin looking good early on. However, things quickly took a turn as Kyu eliminated Ruffin first, leaving the two masked men in the ring. Latin Dragon and Kyu had some good back-and-forth action, but it was Latin Dragon picking up the win in the opener.
Winner by Pinfall:
Latin Dragon
Singles Match
“Brawlin'”
Bo Cooper
-vs.-
Mario Banks
Rude, crude and tattooed. The big man took the win in this one, finishing Banks off with a Death Valley Driver.
Winner by Pinfall:
Bo Cooper
Vendetta Vixens Match
Jessica James
-vs.-
Former WWE Diva
Serena
The “Straight Edge” Diva came out to a great reaction from the crowd at The Dome. Jessica James performed well in this match, but once Serena floored her with the Spear, it was all over.
Winner by Pinfall:
Serena
Singles Match
to determine the #1 Contender for the
Vendetta Pro Heavyweight Championship
“Big Nasty”
Jason Watts
-vs.-
“The Rock of Love”
Billy Blade
w/ Terra Lynn Calaway
Bakersfield has always had a love-hate relationship with Billy Blade (mostly hate), but it was clear that the crowd favorite on this night was Watts. Unfortunately for Watts, he has a temper, and he let it get to him as he went to a ground-and-pound on Blade, hitting several illegal closed-fist punches. The referee attempted to get Watts up, but was eventually shoved away, at which point the match and #1 Contendership was awarded to Billy Blade.
“The Rock of Love” may have left the building with the victory, but shortly following the decision he received a Chokeslam courtesy of the “Big Nasty”, to which the crowd approved of loudly.
Winner as a result of a Disqualification:
Billy Blade
Six-Man Tag-Team Match
"Big Country" Jody Kristofferson
&
The Ballard Brothers
Shane & Shannon Ballard
w/ Buggy
-vs.-
SU/KA
Sunami & Kadin Anthony
&
"Nightmare" Nathan Graves
The Ballards came out first, along with Buggy, and began their typical bashing of anything American and reminding us of how they believe Canada is superior. They then brought out their partner, “the only American we like”, Jody Kristofferson. As soon as Kristofferson got into the ring, SU/KA's music hit, only... no SU/KA. Not at the entrance, anyway, because they came through the crowd, got behind their opponents, and pulled the Ballards out of the ring. Nathan Graves eventually joined the mix. Near the end of the match, all six men were involved in a brawl, ending with SU/KA and the Ballards battling to the back while the “Nightmare” picked up the win, nailing Kristofferson with his Ace Crusher-like finisher.
Following the match, Kristofferson began assaulting Graves, ending with Kristofferson using the grip of his whip while hitting a Double Axehandle to his downed enemy. Kristofferson then put out the challenge to face Graves one-on-one in a Texas Bullrope match!
Winners by Pinfall:
Sunami
Kadin Anthony &
Nathan Graves
Singles Match
“Out of Control”
Matt Carlos
-vs.-
Former WWE Superstar
Scotty 2 Hotty
Matt Carlos took this match on short notice, filling in for Vinnie Massaro, but didn't get a very positive reaction. The youngster got in a bit of offense on the former WWE Light Heavyweight and World Tag-Team Champion, but the experience of Scotty—along with The Worm—made the difference in this one.
After the match, Carlos gave credit to Scotty for a well-fought match, and the two shook hands. But, Scotty didn't leave it at that, as it was time to dance, which ended with Carlos doing The Worm.
Winner by Pinfall:
Scotty 2 Hotty
Tag-Team Match
Eric Cross
&
Tank Alvarado
-vs.-
Dos Perfectos
Jimenez Y Hernandez
In what was to be a rematch from September 2 Remember, Dos Perfectos now would face one-half of the team they faced previously, as Eric Cross filled in for Tommy Angels. Cross stated that the “Monster Squad” would, on this night, be known as “Crossfire”. Unfortunately for Cross, he is much smaller than Angels, and while he still had the big tank with him, in the end, it would be Jesse Jimenez making the pin on Eric Cross.
Winners by Pinfall:
Dos Perfectos
Main Event
Vendetta Pro Heavyweight Championship
Former WWE Superstar
“The Big Valbowski”
Val Venis
-vs.-
Vendetta Pro Heavyweight Champion
“Wrestling Personified”
Rik Luxury
w/ Markus Mac
At September 2 Remember, these two went at it with the Vendetta Pro title on the line. Because of “The No Alternate” Markus Mac, Rik Luxury escaped with his title. This time, Markus Mac was to be handcuffed at ringside. When the Champion and his manager came out, Markus quickly made it known that he was NOT going to allow himself to be handcuffed. Shortly thereafter, Vendetta Pro ring announcer and Commissioner Christian Cole stated that if Markus did not do as ordered, that Luxury would be stripped of the title and that BOTH him and Luxury would be fired, effective immediately. Because of this, Markus reluctantly allowed himself to be handcuffed in the corner.
Near the end of the match, the former WWE InterContinental and World Tag-Team Champion was setting up for his finisher, the “Money Shot”, when Markus Mac—who just happened to be handcuffed in that corner—reached up and grabbed Val's foot. Val kicked him away, and Markus threatened to hit him with his steel briefcase. Val began to taunt the handcuffed Markus Mac, so Markus cocked back with his free arm, when Christian Cole intercepted the briefcase. As soon as the Commissioner turned back around, he was met with powder in the face from Markus, which is when Val reached down to grabs Markus and pull him into the ring. Referee Sparkey Ballard broke things up, but the briefcase ended up in the hands of Rik Luxury, who whacked Val with it, and then got the three count to win the match.
Following the end of the match, Val Venis ends the celebration of Rik and Markus when he gets hold of Markus and delivers a Suplex, and then follows up hitting the Money Shot! Meanwhile, Luxury was backing away from the ring, belt in hand, when he was met by Jason Watts, who chased him back into the ring. Luxury backed away from Watts... and right into Val Venis! Val and Watts attack Luxury, and finish with Watts hitting the Chokeslam on Luxury!
The show came to an end with Christian Cole apologizing to Val, who said that he would be back one more time. Meanwhile, Watts held the Vendetta Pro Heavyweight title belt high above his head, asking the crowd what they thought. The crowd approved, however, it's Billy Blade who won the #1 Contendership earlier in the night, so Jason Watts may have to wait his turn
