(1)Excalibur versus Disco Machine
The show starts with Excalibur on the microphone. He tells the crowd to give themselves a round of applause for being here for 3 years.. or something like that. He then runs down the history of himself and Disco Machine, saying they are the PWG DVD color commentators, and they are tag team partners.. but tonight, he proposes that they duke it out to determine who is indeed the Best PWG Commentator. Disco Machine gladly accepts without much hesitation~!

At one point in the early going, Disco Machine got red carded because he headbutted Excalibur in the chest. WACKY~! A few minutes later, Disco hit a suicide dive to the floor! He then nailed him in the back with a chair and sent him into the ring.

Later in the match, Excalibur got back on the offense with an eye gouge. He put him in the cobra clutch of doom and a desperate Disco got to the ropes. Excalibur then nailed a German suplex for a near fall.

The finish saw Disco going for a choke breaker but Excalibur blocked it, Excalibur going for a heart punch but Machine countered with a nerve hold and then hit the chock breaker for the win and the crown of Best PWG Commentator. Fun opening match. Internet Wrestling Geek Match Rating: ** 1/2.

Winner and Best PWG DVD Commentator: Disco Machine

(2)Ronin versus Nemesis
Started off with what was supposed to fast paced, but just looked like really slow lucha. Ended up on the floor. Nemesis did a hand stand on the apron, and Ronin nailed him with a forearm to the face. He teased throwing him into the chairs but just tossed him into the ring instead. After getting a little heat of Nemesis, Nemesis came back and hit a very sexy neckbreaker for a near fall. Ronin should really try selling forearms. They didn't even register, same with the punches in the corner.

Ronin came back and eventually hit a very nice brainbuster for a near fall. Finish saw Ronin hit a crazy lariat followed by a death valley driver for the win! Internet Wrestling Geek Match Rating: *

(3)"Classic" Colt Cabana versus Top Gun Talwar
Wow, this match was just ridiculously funny. At one point they get in a collar and elbow, and roll out to the ring and to the back behind the curtain, still in the collar and elbow lock up. Screams of pain can be heard. Sounds brutal.. but then, the curtain opens and they are sitting on chairs sipping on tea! The referee grabs them by their ears and brings them back to the ring. Lots of retarded stuff like that.

Finish saw Top Gun going for almost a diamond dust, Cabana caught him and finished him off with a reverse bear hug. Internet Wrestling Geek Match Rating: A bazillion snowflakes.

After the match, Joey Ryan took out Topgun Talwar and the referee. He then said "I'm the longest reigning PWG Champion ever, and I've had more title defenses than anyone." He then said something else, but I couldn't make it out.. he went to piledrive Talwar on a chair, but Excalibur ran out with a fire extinguisher~! Excalibur also had taped ribs... over his gear. That is why Excalibur is the best!

(4) Chris Bosh, Scott Lost and Scorpio Sky versus Kevin Steen, Davey Richards and The Human Tornado
The match started off with a brawl with everyone throwing punches left and right. It finally got down to Davey Richards and Lost in the ring. Richards tried for the Tiger Driver, but Lost rolled out of the ring.

Richards then cleaned house, with help of an assisted dropkick sending one of them to the floor. The crowd went crazy for this. The referee laid in the count on The Dynasty. The match then started again with Human Tornado and Lost. Tornado hit a dropsault and later after a kick to Human Tornado's steel balls, a bitch slap. He soon tagged out to Richards.

Steen ran in and knocked the remaining Dynasty members off the apron. He then hit a cannon ball flip thing onto Lost in the corner. Tornado then continued with Lost in the ring. Bosh at one point went for a low blow on Tornado, but of course hurt his hand. Tornado kicked him in the face, knocking him to the floor. Lost then hit a dropsault. Lost put on a leg grapevine and then tagged in Sky.

Sky hit a double stomp on Tornado and then tagged in Bosh. Bosh eventually then got Tornado in a nipple twister, but then Steen came in and gave Bosh one of his own. Bosh guaged his eyes and then hit the Bronco Buster on Tornado.

Lost and Tornado didn't do much as Steen and Sky fought on the floor. Once they were broken up, Lost hit a back elbow and then tagged in Bosh. The Dynasty beat him down in the corner and then eventually Tornado nailed a neckbreaker on Lost who had since been tagged in.

Steen eventually got the hot tag, nailed Bosh with some crazy chops, took out Scorpio Sky and then Richards hit a dropkick to Lost from the top. Richards hit him with some stiff kicks and then nailed a German suplex. Bosh made the save. Steen, who finally recovered from a European uppercut from Lost(?) began trading punches with Bosh. The faces took out Bosh, but then Sky came in and nailed Steen with a dropkick. Tornado then hit THE POUNCE~! on Sky. Tornado then hit a crazy over the top rope dive onto everyone on the floor. JESUS.

Lost and Richards battled it out in the ring. He hit an exploder and a sick lariat for a two count only as Sky made the save. Sky then hit an ace crusher and then applied the dragon sleeper. It was quickly broken up by a dropkick to the face by Tornado. Tornado then hit a Tiger bomb for a near fall. Bosh eventually hit some wacky back breaker. He went for the pin but that was broken up by Mr. Wrestling.

Steen went for the package piledriver, but Bosh got out, hit a stone cold stunner. He bounced off the ropes and then into a rock bottom by Steen for a near fall. Steen then went for a People's elbow but was cut stopped by a leg lariat by Lost. Lost then hit some wacky gutbuster/backbreaker combo. Richards made the save.

Richards eventually got Sky in Excess' (from IWS) sneaky leg submission. Lost broke it up. Lost hit some crazy backbreaker and then an elbow from the top. Steen made the save. Steen nailed the Go Home Driver on Bosh. He then hit his awesome moonsault for a near fall. Sky hit a reverse rana on Steen, then a blackout DDT on Tornado for the win.

Internet Geek Match Rating: ***

After the match, Steen grabbed the match and said something I couldn't make out. I'm sure in person it was crystal clear but I have no idea what he said. Dave Richards then grabbed the microphone and said something like "Steen, we've never seen eye to eye but we fought a good fight..something something Super Dragon.. tag titles.. At Battle of Los Angeles.. whether it be Bosh, Lost, Sky, that faggot Joey Ryan.. something something.. only two somethings, walk and KILL." Then Steen took the microphone and said he was sorry to Human Tornado. They really need to do something about their audio.

(5) TJ Perkins versus Roderick Strong
The match started off with some great wrestling with Stong getting the advantage. He took him out with a leg sweep. Perkins then took the time to tie his boot, which Strong should have kicked him in the face but decided to show some sportsmanship. They did some very sexy chain wrestling.

Eventually Perkins got the advantage and put him in various holds. Strong hit a blockbuster suplex for a near fall. If I were to write every single awesome thing that happened during this match, it'd be like 754 pages long. Just an awesome match. Finish saw Strong making Perkins tap out with a high angle Boston Crab.

Internet Geek Match Rating: *** and 1/2

(6) Kings of Wrestling (Chris Hero and Claudio Castagnoli) versus Cape Fear (El Generico and Quicksilver)
The match started off with Generico and Hero. Generico gets the advantage with a wrist lock. Chris Hero reverses it. They reverse back and forth with Hero eventually putting on the cravate. Hero tags out to Claudio. Generico tags out to Silver. They tie up. They mat wrestle a bit.

Quicksilver eventually gets the advantage and hits a rana and then takes him down with an arm drag. Claudio tags out to Hero who then gets put into arm drag. Silver eventually hits a leg lariat. They both soon tag out.

I can't believe how much Claudio has improved since the first time I saw him in IWA Mid South. He was great then, now he's ten times better. Generico took him down with a rana. With the Kings of Wrestling on the floor, Generico teases a dive. Instead he chops them both on the back. Silver went for a dive but was caught by KOW, Generico then nailed a spring board moonsault to the floor onto everyone. Claudio was then bleeding for some reason.

The Kings of Wrestling continued to work over El Generico for several minutes, nailing many awesome double team maneuvers. Generico eventually got the hot tag, and Silver cleaned house. Hero climbed the turnbuckle and went for a moonsault but landed on his feet. Quicksilver then put him in some crazy submission hold! Generico hit an amazing over the top rope moonsault onto Claudio! JESUS~!

The finish saw Kings of Wrestling nail their double team crazy power bomb for the win!! JESUS!

Internet Geek Match Rating: *** and 3/4

(7) B Boy versus Joey Ryan - Steel Cage Match for the PWG Championship
I honestly did not care for this match. Joey Ryan doesn't sell anything. Great, you can take all that but it doesn't mean anything if you're back up like it's nothing. I'm sure he'd not sell a bullet to the face if this were a movie. Eugh. Finish saw Ryan take out B Boy with Ether. Joey Ryan's no selling ruined a potentially great match.

Internet Geek Match Rating: 1/8*

EXTRA: Spending Money: El Generico's and Colt Cabana's short film. Pretty damn funny.

Overall: This is a pretty good DVD. I really liked Perkins/Strong, KOW/Cape Fear, Cabana/Talwar and the Six Man.. Other than the main event and Ronin/Nemesis, it was worth watching. You can buy it at www.prowrestlingguerrilla.com.
