Hello everyone and welcome to another episode of the After-Stream episode 8. I am 'Smart' Mark Weiss here to give you a review of what happened on this weeks X-Stream.
So Wow...what a show we had to kick off the first X-Stream. Some controversy surrounding the opening match between Nate Michaels and Mr. International and it plays into both my wins and fails.
The BOTN title match was great, International and Nate were bringing it to each other and it had an exciting finish with International countering the Calgary Flames into the International Incident. That was a win, the fail wasn't what happened after that. In what many thought was a 2 count the bell rang and the title was given to International. It was in fact that such an controversial ending should have waited till the pay per view. But I will say this; I seen Nate after the match and he was furious.
This does a couple of things. It now makes Mr. International who was beating around as an upper carder and gives him Main Event status.
It ends Nates incredible run of 7 title defenses in 3 months to the day, and now opens up the title possibility for Matthias Marlfox or Mr. Wrestling should he return to action.
I thought it was an excellent move I just wish it happened at a pay per view, but International did say that he was impressing Ashley Silva, is there something going on behind the curtain? Guess that remains to be seen. But it looks like we may get a rematch next week, so no doubt more people will be looking to see what happens.
So onto the rest of my WINS.
2. Matthias Marlfox is back on top of his game with an impressive victory in the triple threat match against Jacob Cass and Crusader Ashe. The win in my opinion makes Marlfox a contender for the BOTN title after the International/Michaels rematch. Especially since he can now once again challenge for the title now that his Risky Business stipulation has ended. Happy New Year Matthias now make the most of it.
3. The Ladies. What can I say but I love them all and they put on a hell of a show in their tag match. The outcome was surprising, but maybe this will is the start of a big push by Lexi and NEON. They've been jobbing for awhile now. So good job on the win my fun loving girls.
Now onto the remaining FAILS
2. Most of the roster. A good portion of the roster wasn't at X-Stream, and I can't understand why. Especially after such a strong Riot, what happened?
3. Brooke. Brooke was coming off a big feud with Raiyven for the Vixxen's title, and loses to JYNX. Not the way to build momentum, and an odd move by management after all the time they spent to make her a serious threat to the Vixxen's champ. Not to take away anything from JYNX but I was surprised...Even if I picked JYNX in my preshow.
So now onto the REST OF THE SHOW
Mark Covair pulled off a victory against the Hood. Both of these men have made themselves serious threats to the mid and upper card. A few more key wins by either man could see them in the running for a title shot. Either X-Rated or BOTN.
And the returning 'England' picked up his second win over Ethan Quinn. This match had a few surprises, first off England's attire looked similar to Quinns, second, England had Les Taylor, the British Lion at ringside. And finally the most surprising was the attack by I:W Wrestler Bobby Williams.
The reason this is a surprise was not only was it because its a different companies talent, but just about everyone including yours truly was convinced that England and Bobby Williams were the same person! What is going on here? How does Les Taylor fit in? how will Jenna Storm react to her man being attacked? how will Ethan Quinn react and is Mr. International involved in some way? So many questions that need to be answered, guess we need to toon and watch next week.
Ladies and Gentlemen that is all this week as not much has happened around the league, so for ViralPro I am 'Smart' Mark Weiss and I will see you on the X-Stream Preshow. Don't forget to tune into 'Smart TV' as I have a special guest lined up.
