Show Notes:
- In the opener Jack Tasman making his debut turned on The Meat Massacre allowing the Multicultural Society to Samoan Drop its way to victory. After the bout the whole Society entered and told all that The MS would take out the Det Crew and the AWF Title tonight.
- Blackstone bested Jay Law in a hard hitting bout with the SOS Fireman’s Toss.
- Robert Barnes retained the Young Lion’s Championship after distraction from The Elite Crew cost Spaceboy the match. Afterwoods Mick Moretti & Percy T cleared Elite from the ring with Mint saying he’d had enough and a 6 man match was set for later in the card.
- Massive Q started he was looking to start a new stable. Scotty Club bested Q and afterwoods said he thoughts for his own stable.
- Match was originally Non Title, but Max Comic won the choose the stipulation coin toss, and declared he wanted it to be a title match. After coming close, as Comic set up for the Punch Line Fistdrop, The Samoan Warrior interfered causing Comic to crutch the ropes, which lead to his downfall with the Air New Zealand Splash. MS 1 – Det Crew 0 in Best of 3
- After intermission it was Match 2 in DC VS MS as Masked Musa faced TNT. Musa won the toss, and Tama said that they wanted it to be a Loser Leaves Town Match! After a back and forth bout, with TNT poised on the top rope, Samoan Warrior appeared again, only this time to be stopped by Max Comic. With Ref CB Cochrane distracted, TNT scored with a crossbody, but Tama Williams entered and broke the pin. Musa held TNT, while Tama went to hit him with the belt, TNT moved, Musa was clocked, TNT got rid of Tama, then scored the Detonator Mark 2 Verterbreaker for the big win. Musa is forced to leave town.
- In the Tag Title Match Selene was introduced by Frankie as his valet to Traffic’s surprise. In the end Frankie was distracted while dancing with Selene, and was rolled up for the pin, while Traffic seemingly had the match won on his side of the ring. Traffic seemed somewhat unamused at the loss, and maybe the new valet.
- In the Main Even Coin Toss, Iron Jay got the duke, choosing a Lumberjack Match to keep things even and stop interference from the MS. Team members kept Jay and Hussain from going at it prematurely.
- In the 6 man after a heated battle, Mint Condition caught Robert Barnes with the Mintsault leading to victory.
- Baby Devine beat Selene after some questionable refereeing from Tony Kebab.
- In the Main Event Lumberjack match, Jay seemingly had the bout won after the Iron Splash, but at the 2 count Tony Kebab entered and stopped official CB Cochran’s count, grabbed his arm and arm DDTed CB. An enraged TNT charged the ring for Kebab, but was cut off by Tama Williams, then all hell broke loose with all lumberjacks entering causing the no contest. In the end Jay and TNT clotheslined Hussain out an unsatisfied Det Crew challenged MS to a 4 on 4 No DQ War at the next big AWF event, where if victorious they’d get a minute with Mad Tony Kebab. Williams responded by saying they accept on the condition that if the MS won, the losing member of the DC would have to leave their group. The match was set and the next show’s main event is locked and will be massive!
- AWF thanks all those that attended and appreciates their vocal support throughout the show.

AWF NEWSWIRE AUTUMN 2011
- Iron Jay Coles remains Australasian Champion sfter recent successful defences against Mad Turk Hussain and Scotty Club. Future challengers lined up for Jay include a Title Bout at Supanova Brisbane against seasoned Queensland pro Mason Childs on 2 April, and 23 April will see Jay face The Samoan Warrior at the AWF Dojo Minto. In recent weeks Jay has been in Fiji doing further promotional work for sponsor I & J Foods.
- AWF Tag Team Champions “Party Trix” have been dazzling the competition since defeating “The Cornershop Connection” last October. It appears that the Cornershop Connection’s inability to get the Titles back in January has caused a rift in the team, and Frankie Fettucini has told AWF he is heading back to Italy for a while to go into training. Meanwhile Party Trix will contend with challenging tandems from Elite Wrestling, and will also have a special handicap match against Jay Law on 23 April, stemming from their spectacular double pin at the 19 March AWF Dojo event.
- Young Lion’s Champion “Scientific” Robert Barnes has been gearing his Elite Wrestling group to more focus in recent months, with the faction in contention for the Tag and Australasian Championship. At the recent Dojo event, Barnes even made a sacrifice for the team, laying down for partner Jay Law so he could advance in the Partners Collide Tournament to potentially gain an Australasian Championship Title shot. Barnes has the likes of Spaceboy Dacey, Sir Loin and Max Comic all looking for future YLC shots, plus Victorian Young Lion’s such as Ryan Rollins have been waiting for Supanova Melbourne to get a crack at “The Scientist”.
- Commonwealth Champion Tama Williams underhandedly defeated Max Comic at the January 21 Penrith, NSW event with the help of Multicultural Society partner The Samoan Warrior. Post bout Tama encountered a finger injury that required surgery, and hasn’t appeared in AWF bouts since. Tama informed AWF officials he will be heading to the USA to compete in the Chikara King of Trios, with Percy T and Kabel, and in other independent USA events in April. On return to Australia Williams will be forced to defend the Commonwealth Championship or will be stripped of the title.
- AWF welcomes all its new students who have started this March at the AWF School of Pro-Wrestling. We hope you are having fun so far! Applications for the next intake, which is the Winter Semester starting 4 June are now available for the next course. All interested please send an email to info@awfwrestling.com.au for an application. Looking forward to seeing you all in the ring soon!
- Supanova Brisbane and Melbourne are upcoming next two weeks, and once again fun is assured! The Supanova juggernaut rolls into Brisbane on 2 & 3 April and Melbourne on 9 & 10 April with AWF taking centre stage at 12, 2 and 4pm daily. There will be Supa-Tournament bouts, with surprises galore guaranteed, and the winners to receive entry onto the 10 June Penrith Aussie Mania event. Be sure to come along and be part of these Supa-fun weekends. Match line ups will be on the events page of the AWF Website in the coming week.
- Former WWE Superstar “Ugene” will grace AWF rings on Fri 10 June at Panthers Penrith. Why is Ugene coming to AWF? Be on hand on 10 June to find out!
- Massive Q has been on the search to put together a new faction. So far things have been rough for him finding a partner, with Scotty Club declining and defeating the former Australasian Champion, and newcomer Jack Tasman turning on him after the team was victorious. Q will tour the nation as part of the Supanova events and says he will be scouting Queensland and Victoria for potential partners.
- Mad Tony Kebab’s refereeing has seemingly become below borderline, as he now is making blatent interference on behalf of his cohorts at The Multicultural Society. After almost costing Iron Jay the AWF Championship to Mad Turk Hussain, and nearly instilling a riot in the process, Kebab has recently cost Selene and TNT big match decisions, and it appears that the Detonation Crew is hot to take down the “Mad Ref”. A cocky Kebab has claimed that the DC can’t touch him, and if they do there will be consequences!
