I know, I know. This was supposed to be up days ago. Gimmie break, I'm on the road. Traveling was quite the pain in the ass due to weather delays. Delays that caused several passengers to be stuck in various airports waiting on flights to Dallas. Just long enough to develop serious cases of b.o. Grown women have enough products available to prevent them from smelling like a 3rd grader after recess! Enough of that shit though, let' talk about Friday.
I had the pleasure of attending the HOODSLAM 2nd anniversary show, I Still Know What You Did Last Hoodslam. As you might be aware, I have sipped the HS Kool-Aid. Tall glass of purple stuff! I must admit that I have been hooked in. I am a huge fan of people being allowed to work and grow their craft and these guys are doing just that. Breathing new life into this game instead or trying to reanimate dead horses (did some one say Eric Bischoff?). Trust me, this is nothing like what those guys are force feeding the fans. These guys live by the love/hate rally cry FUCK THE FANS!
The 2nd anniversary show was headlined by the Brock Lesnar Memorial(for some reason) Lethal Lottery Tag Team Tournament. Now I tend to be a fan of a good singles match but when done the right way tag team wrestling can be epic. Especially when it ends with an over the top battle royal, which is the the only proper way to settle a dispute according to the Geneva Conventions. Not only did I get to see the HS favorites battle it out but got the debut of Scorpion. I do believe that I marked out a little bit when he hit the ring. Screw you! Any guy the was between the ages of 8 and 16 during the mid 90's would have lost their shit when he hit the ring. I also had the pleasure to witness my first female Hoodslammer. Not only did Brittany wonder take bumps on par with the fellas but used what I have learned is a very well known posterior to her advantage. Serious weapon! Type of booty you shoot dice across. But moving on. I learned that the best way to kill a zombie gorilla is to put him through a flaming table. Possibly the spot of the night. Still hard to tell. There were some serious high spots that night. Don't believe me? Check the Youtube page (link on the bottom).
This show was every bit as good as advertised. Not to mention I got to see how entertaining "The" Brian Kendrick can really be without the TNA leash on. Speaking of unleashed, former WWE Superstar Sinn Bodhi(Kizarny) got to open up the bag of tricks that he was forced to keep closed by McMahon, Dunn, Laurinitis or whoever. I never got to see the Samurai sword on SMACKDOWN dammit! I must say I was quite entertained by the sideshow as well as the in ring performance. The night also saw a title change hands. After Guile successfully defended his title he was challenged by the winner of the Brock Lesnar Lethal Lottery(Money in the Bank style). Surprises everywhere, you know.
Seriously, the show kicked ass. Apparently it's been kicking ass for 2 years and I'm just late to the party. This is what Indy is supposed to be. Get off you ass and support. Try looking up wrestling events on Google instead of Real Housewives gossip or whatever the hell it is you're watching. This is developing talent, grinding it out and honing their craft. Not some jack ass at a bodybuilding competition that gets a contract thrown at his face. This is what keeps this industry that I love thriving. Respect to HOODSLAM, Action Coast Empire, GLCW, Windy City Wrestling and those that do this for love of the game and entertainment of the fans. Much Love ! Until next time skullcrakers!
