Pro Wrestling Chaos kicked off 2018 at their newest, and arguably most impressive venue to date -Kings Oak in Kingswood. The last show from 2017 almost seemed a distant memory, however, in true Chaos fashion, the fans in attendance were quickly reminded of why Pro Wrestling Chaos are a promotion on the rise and most certainly one to really keep an eye on throughout 2018!
James Drake vs. Beano This match was not announced prior to the event but that did not stop the Chaos Club from enjoying this. In fact, this match proved why unannounced matches can sometimes catch the eye more than those that are announced. It was a year ago that Drake, along with fifteen other wrestlers, competed in the WWE United Kingdom Championship Tournament in Blackpool. Those twelve months have flown by and Drake has certainly made a name for himself in promotions such as PROGRESS Wrestling and Pro Wrestling Chaos holding tag team gold in both promotions. Beano had to be on his guard in this contest as lurking on the outside was the violent Nathan Bane. The Brotherhood never work alone and any opponent has to constantly keep an eye on the outside of the ring. Beano was able to keep Bane at bay for large portions of the match but wasn't able to prevent him from twice getting involved. The second time was a crucial moment in the match when Beano hit Drake with a hangman's yurinagi from the top rope. Bane dragged referee Paz out of the ring just as it looked as though Beano was about to defeat the leader of The Brotherhood. Bane was then left to feel the wrath of Beano as he was soon levelled with the same move that almost defeated his leader moments before. However that was enough of a distraction as Drake was able to roll-up Beano, assisted with a handful of trunks, to pick up the win and continue the dominance that he and his stablemates have had over Chaos for the last five months. Winner - James Drake Team H8 vs. Charlie Sterling & Eddie Ryan Charlie Sterling is a great showman and there is absolutely no doubting that. Having returned to Chaos in February 2017, Sterling has been a fantastic source of entertainment for the fans. That's even when he's been at the expense of the joke! As for his tag team partner, Eddie has struggled for form over the last twelve months picking up just two wins throughout 2017. Granted those two wins were against Rampage Brown and Mikey Whiplash, but other than that, Eddie struggled against names you'd expect him to win against. So, a new year and perhaps some new luck for The English Lion? No, not in the slightest. The match was won by Team H8 but it was the aftermath that shocked the land of Chaos. Winners - Team H8 After the match, there appeared to be some dissension in the ranks of Ryan and Sterling, a familiar voice came through - Pariah Khan had returned! Yes, the former owner of Pro Wrestling Chaos was back and during his time away, he had dedicated himself to becoming a qualified Doctor. 'The Asian Sensation', as he dubbed himself, had returned to help Eddie who, as all Chaos fans are aware, has gone through some troubled times since being hit in the head with a ladder at Heir 2 The Throne in 2016. The Chaos Club were even treated to an embrace in the middle of the ring between Sterling and Ryan, albeit a rather awkward hug. Stay tuned to Chaos' social media channels to see what Dr. Pariah Khan has planned for Sterling and Ryan over the coming weeks! Eddie Dennis vs. Big Grizzly This is a match of what possibly could have been as Eddie Dennis suffered an injury to his right shoulder very early in the contest. The effort and endeavour put forward by 'The Pride of Wales' was incredible. For a good fifteen minutes, he wrestled a man regarded as one of the best in the country right now. Dennis almost picked up the win with a Next Stop Driver but Grizzly was able to get a foot on the rope. Moments later Grizzly, seemingly overcome with frustration, struck his fellow Welshman in the head with his Heir To The Throne briefcase to cause a disqualification. Grizzly told the fans it was a good thing that Dennis lost the belt to Matt Riddle at All or Nothing because right now he'd be cashing in his guaranteed title shot. A video then appeared on the tron showing Alex Steele. Alex was away on his honeymoon in Thailand but indicated that he had not finished with Eddie Dennis. With Control, Alt, Delete coming up on February 17th, could we finally see the former Steele Dragons facing off one-on-one in a Chaos ring? Winner via DQ - Eddie Dennis Inter Dimensional Portal Match The first (and probably last) ever Inter Dimensional Portal match showcased some of the best young talent in the UK today. In a match inspired by Rick & Morty (which the show was based on), we saw several debut's including Cal Adams, Posada, Josh Holly, Chuck Mambo and Splits McPins, whilst Sierra Loxton and Brendan White, who have both appeared at Chaos several times in the past, completed the field for this contest. The match also featured guest appearances from a couple of Meeseeks to assist Josh Holly when he called for help. The contest was won by Sierra Loxton however the major talking point came after the bell when Pro Wrestling Chaos witnessed the debut of the haunting Kaggy. However, she was not alone as not too far behind her was the returning former two-time King of Chaos Champion The Wild Boar! Wasting little time in making his presence felt, Boar completely destroyed everything in his path and left a trail of devastation which will be felt throughout the land of Chaos for a long time to come. Winner - Sierra Loxton Maiden of Chaos Championship - Jinny vs. Sofia Ari Another debut from the Dragon Pro Academy this time came in the form of the highly rated Sofia Ari who has been making waves in Dragon Pro with some extremely impressive performances as of late. Unfortunately for Sofia, Jinny was able to beat her relatively quickly to retain her championship. With an impressive victory like this against a highly rated challenger, Chaos management may have to search far and wide to find Jinny's next challenger. Winner and STILL Maiden of Chaos - Jinny Knights of Chaos Championship - Mike Bird & Drew Parker vs. The Brotherhood (ELIJAH & Joe Mezinger) By virtue of their victory at All or Nothing, Bird and Parker were granted their Knights of Chaos Championship opportunity at The Wrestle Squanchers against the current champions, The Brotherhood. 'Mr. Mayhem' James Drake accompanied his brothers to the ring however, he was quickly ejected from ringside by Junior Junior referee Huw Jenkins. This match showed just how dominant Mezinger and ELIJAH can be without their brothers at ringside while Bird and Parker also showed just how much grit and determination they have to keep up with the most violent and imposing stable in Pro Wrestling Chaos history. The even contest was brewing up to what should have been a fair and conclusive finish until ELIJAH took a chair to the referee. A disqualification wasn't called for and soon after, James Drake returned to ringside and assisted his brothers in retaining the Knights of Chaos Championships. Winners and STILL Knights of Chaos - The Brotherhood The beat down continued post match as James Drake took to the microphone saying that he, along with his brothers, would love to leave Pro Wrestling Chaos. However, they're having way too much fun! That just so happened to be the wrong choice of words from the WWE UK Championship star as this brought to the ring the returning Chief Deputy Dunne along with his partner Los Federales Santos Jr. The Anti-Fun Police, along with Bird and Parker, cleared house and cleared house. Dunne then informed The Brotherhood that at Control, Alt, Delete on February 17th that they would be facing himself, Los Federales Santos Jr., Drew Parker and Mike Bird! 'Dirty' Dick Riley vs. Will Ospreay This had been one of the most anticipated contests in Pro Wrestling Chaos history. Billed as 'Dick vs. Willy', the Chaos Club were treated to a contest between the 2017 Pro Wrestling Chaos wrestler of the year vs. the current IWGP Jr. Heavyweight Champion. This was a match that would've stolen the show on any card up and down the country. Heck, this could've stolen the show on a lot of cards across the world! Riley's record over the last ten months or so in Chaos has been less than stellar to say the very least. However, when you're facing wrestlers who are holding WWE and New Japan gold, and having the match of the night on a regular basis, there really is no shame in defeat. Unfortunately for everyone's favourite Dick, it was Will Ospreay who picked up the win in an epic 20+ minute back-and-forth tussle here which sent the fans into an absolute frenzy throughout. This is one of those matches that fans will look back on at the end of the year and it will be in most people's minds as a Match of the Year contender! Winner - Will Ospreay So that just about wraps up Pro Wrestling Chaos: The Wrestle Squanchers. The next offering comes from Thornbury Leisure Centre on February 17th with a card that includes three huge debut's! Firstly there's the NWA World's Heavyweight Champion, Nick Aldis who WILL be defending the most historical championship in professional wrestling. Also, we'll see the debut of the high flying Andrew Everett. Everett was supposed to debut a year ago however, he suffered an unfortunate injury at that time. Lastly, arguably the best wrestler in the UK right now Mark Haskins will be making his Chaos debut. Please remember that Travis Banks was scheduled to appear. However due to circumstances beyond the control of Pro Wrestling Chaos, Travis will no longer be on the card. Don't let that deter you from attending OR from watching live on iPPV through powerbomb.tv. If you sign up using the promo code PWCHAOS you will receive 20 days of ALL Powerbomb content for free. After that, the cost is simply $9.99 (USD) per month. Which is roughly £7.21, €8.17 or ¥1,106.64.
