Independent Connecticut Championship Wrestling
September 8th, 2001 at the Plainfield Little League Fields, Plainfield, CT

The ICCW had a successful benefit show for Cara Cote, a 9 year old girl suffering from Leukemia. There was a draw of 100 people at the show.

Commissioner MTE came out and made a few announcements. First, to continue his ongoing feud with former best friend and CT Champion Ruy Batello, he declared that the ICCW Connecticut Title would be on the line 24/7. He then called out ICCW Champion Chris Venom and #1 Contender "Shooter" Adam Booker. Before he could interview them about their scheduled title match later in the night, "Big League" Brian Black came out and complained that he defeated Venom at the previous event (by DQ) and therefore should be getting the shot. Eastern Wrestling Alliance (EWA) Heavyweight Champion Doctor Heresy was next to come out. He also wanted a shot claiming to be the Heavyweight Champion of the top New England independent promotion. Instead, MTE made the match a tag match, with Heresy and Black teaming to face Booker and Venom. Heresy and Black attacked Venom and Booker, who fought back and sent Heresy and Black packing. Venom stood in the ring with his ICCW strap and Booker held up the EWA Heavyweight title.

In the opening match, ICCW Tag Team Champions The X3-Rated Posse (Lionel and Kid Krazy) accompanied by their manager JC Marxxx defeated KL Murphy and "Little 80's" Derik Destiny by pinfall. Destiny was pinned after Krazy hit a Super-kick and Lionel followed up with a top rope leg-drop.

******************************************************************

"The Enforcer" Larry Huntley (with "Bad Boy" Billy Black) defeated The Beast by pinfall. While Billy Black had the referee distracted, Huntley used Beast's huge cow leg bone to knock him out.

******************************************************************

ICCW Connecticut Champion "Heartbreaker" Ruy Batello faced #1 Contender Duff. Duff made his comeback, but Ruy was able to cut him off and throw him out of the ring. As Ruy showboated to the crowd, Johnny Curtis ran out with referee Larry Loomis in tow. He rolled up Ruy and Loomis counted the pinfall. Johnny Curtis is the new ICCW CT Champion.

******************************************************************

Alexander Forsythe III (in his wheelchair) came to the ring pushed by his personal assistant Ms. Green. He berated the people and talked about how amazing a manager he has become. He talked about how with his money, a nobody wrestler like Mucho Dinero won a match. Now he continues his streak. He also complained about The Beast attacking Dinero after his match last month. Dinero, looking clueless as ever, came to the ring. His opponent for the evening. Eastern Wrestling Alliance New England Champion, El Tornado. Tornado showed why he was EWA NE Champ. He destroyed Dinero with all sorts of moves. He then hit a Michinoku Driver followed by a picture perfect moonsault. Ms. Green jumped to the apron. She whispered something to Tornado. Rather than take the win, Tornado climbed out of the ring and took a payoff from Forsythe and walked to the back. Winner by count out was Mucho Dinero. Before he could even get up to celebrate, The Beast stormed out and once again decimated Dinero. He then put Dinero in his new submission hold (basically a move where he tries to literally twist a guy's head off). Commissioner MTE tried to break the hold, and the frenzied Beast put him in it. Officials were unable to break the hold, until event Producers Mad Dog and Draven (The Damned) came out and finally broke the hold.

******************************************************************

In a No-DQ Grudge match between the two founding members of the Showtime Posse, "Primetime" Randy J defeated "Cropper" Craig Steele with the entire X3-rated Posse. The win came after continued interference by Tim Kilgore and Kid Krazy. Randy J was able to block a superplex attempt and hit his top rope elbow for the win. After the match, Krazy and Kilgore put the boots to Randy J. Craig Steele pushed them away and shook Randy J's hand in a show of respect (he stipulated that if he lost he would shake Randy's hand). The rest of the Posse left in disgust.

******************************************************************

ICCW Young Guns Champion Damian Houston defeated Johnny Curtis to retain his title. Just before the finish, Ruy Batello ran out, with ref Larry Loomis in tow, and hit a stunner on Curtis and pinned him to regain his title. Houston capitalized and hit his double jump moonsault ("The Rocker Launch") to win. This match was very characteristic of the Japanese Puroresu style. It contained some amazing spots, including Houston's signature 450 splash and Curtis' springboard twisting somersault senton to the outside. Definitely a contender for best match of the night.

******************************************************************

"Bad Boy" Billy Black accompanied by "Enforcer" Larry Huntley defeated The Mighty Moco. Black pinned Moco very easily following a Huntley chair-shot. After the match Black and Huntley pummeled Moco and then got on the microphone challenging all the "big dogs" of ICCW.

******************************************************************

"Self-proclaimed Young Guns Champion" Tim Kilgore (who stole the title belt from Damian Houston at the last event) with JC Marxxx defeated Triplelicious. Kilgore pinned Triplelicious using a carbon copy version of Damian Houston's 450 Splash. After the match, Houston ran out and attacked Kilgore. Before he could get back his belt, JC Marxxx and Kilgore grabbed it and took off. This was another Best of match show contender.

******************************************************************

In the main event, EWA Champion Dr. Heresy and "Big League" Brian Black defeated ICCW Champ "The Revolution" Chris Venom and "Shooter" Adam Booker. All of these guys looked like they belonged in the main event. The match was great. The finish came when Booker and Heresy (a rivalry spilling over from EWA) brawled outside the ring. Referee Pepe Sanchez was outside trying to break them up. "Bad Boy" Billy Black ran in and hit his spinning reverse neckbreaker on Venom and pulled Brian Black (no relation) on top of Venom. The ref turned around in time to count the three as Black gained his second win over Venom in as many attempts. After the match Heresy and Brian Black attacked their opponents, who fought back and Booker hit a double "GORE" clearing the ring of Heresy and Black. The fans cheered as the team THEY thought won stood in the ring.
