IWS Praise the Violence 2010 - Uno Gets Dirty!

IWS Praise the Violence 2010 - Uno Gets Dirty!

Your 8-Bit HeroI had something else to announce, but I just got off the phone with everyone's favourite 8-Bit Luchadore, Player Uno. The Puroresu Player was super-jazzed because he had picked up some NES cartridge called MicroMachines at a garage sale for a quarter and this was somehow an incredibly big deal. (Honestly I tuned him out after the word Nintendo.)

Point is that finding this cartridge made Uno nostalgic and what he was nostalgic for was coming to IWS and getting the shit kicked out of him and kicking ass straight back. So Uno insisted, nay demanded, that I book him in a match with someone who would give him the fight of his life.

Now the only problem for me is that since we had already arranged the card, I had enough left on the budget for Uno, but for his opponent, I basically only had a left-over ham sandwich to pay him with. So I needed someone who can take monstrous amounts of abuse; a brawler who punches and kicks like a mule; and most importantly a man who would work for a half-eaten ham sandwich.

You know it seems to me that I am very familiar with someone who fits that EXACT description. And he owes me a favour too!

Just a second, let me go check the nearest alley-way...

When feeding Stinky curl your fingers away from the foodFans bring your pocket change (and your half-eaten sandwiches) to Praise the Violence, because Stinky the Homeless Guy has agreed to wrestle Player Uno! And just to make things interesting, and to be honest to get Stinky to come, I had to promise Stinky that I would buy him a meal if he beat Uno at Le Skratch. And as someone who once got trampled by Stinky at a Golden Coral buffet, there is nowhere more dangerous than standing between Stinky and a free meal.

IWS Praise the Violence 2010 - Canadian Title

Canadian Title Match: Fatal (4-Way) Glory

IWS Canadian ChampionIn comparison to Beef Wellington who has to be talked into defending his title, the IWS Canadian Champion, Shayne Hawke, has been itching to defend his title to the point where I had an argument with him when he threatened to defend his title in the street against any challenger. (He claims he was joking; I am not so sure.)

By the time we got to preparing for Praise the Violence, our Raging Red-Head had changed his mind about who he wanted to face three times. Finally, when I forced him to choose between his top three dream opponents, Hawke impulsively declared that he would take on all three opponents in a Fatal Four-Way.

So judge this champion by his hand-picked opposition, three of the finest wrestlers ever to compete in the IWS:

Jagged - The Tag Team Specialist?First, we have former IWS Canadian Champion, Jagged. Most people think of Jagged as a tag team champion, now doomed to fight as a singles competitor after the Untouchables forced 2.0 to break-up by beating them at X, our Tenth Anniversary, but the last time that Jagged was forced to wrestled on his own during Shane Matthews' injury, Jagged promptly won the IWS Canadian title - only losing it when Shane was on the verge of returning from his injury and making Jagged's life miserable back-stage.

And after a very unscientific survey, I have determined that Jagged was single-handedly responsible for all of 2.0's in-ring success while "Big Bag of Wind" Shane Matthews is an annoying pissant who should stop trying to read the IWS press releases over my shoulder while I am typing them.

Where was I... ?

He would rather beat the SHIT out of you than shake your hand.Our second competitor is the man that Shayne Hawke beat for the IWS Canadian Title in the first place, Quebec's most bulliest bully, EXesS. When EXesS is in a good mood, he is one of the most dangerous submission wrestlers in Canada. When he's pissed off, well when he's pissed off EXesS is the most dangerous man ever to set foot in the IWS ring. And no one grates on EXesS's nerves more than "Le Maudit Roux" Shayne Hawke.

Having won the IWS Title, the IWS Tag Team Title and the IWS Canadian Title, EXesS is the first and only man ever to win the IWS Triple Crown.

If I have to beat the SHIT out of you to get you to shake my hand, that's a sacrifice that I am willing to make.Our last contestant is the only one in the match who has never won the IWS Canadian Title, but if he wins this match he will match EXesS' accomplishment and become the second ever IWS Triple Crown Champion. He was the second man ever to win the IWS Title and one of the first two men to win the IWS Tag Team Title in our first Extreme Dream tournament. One of the smoothest wrestler that I have ever seen and a man who came back to wrestling after a five year's absence showing less rust than the Bentley in Doomsday. He's not my brother, He's Heavy Maxx Fury!

Shayne has the belt and aims to keep it. Jagged needs the belt to prove once again that he is not just a tag-team specialist. Maxx needs the belt to cement his legacy in the IWS and become a Triple Crown Champion. And ExesS? I would tell you that EXesS needs the belt because he hates Shayne Hawke, but the truth is that EXesS hates everybody and lives to make people miserable. The best way to make all three of his opponents miserable is to win the belt and step on their necks while he does it.

IWS Praise the Violence 2010 - March 6th

BACK! in Black & Blue (and Blood)

The International Wrestling Syndicate returns to Le Skratch on Saturday, March 6th and to mark our first show of '10 all tickets for Praise the Violence will be $10!

IWS ChampionThe main event will be a Triple Threat Triple Death Match for the IWS Title pitting the IWS Champion Beef Wellington against PCP Crazy F'N Manny and the Triple X SeXXX XXXpress SeXXXy Eddy. The three men will have to survive not only each other but thumbtacks, barbed-wire and panes of glass.

PCP Crazy F'N MannyLet's be clear about the stakes. Beef only agreed to this match in the first place because it gave him a chance to destroy Manny. The biggest level of competition between Beef and Manny may be who despises who more. Beef considers Manny to be an "incompetent moron who killed what few brain cells he had years ago" while Manny considers Beef's reign as IWS Champion to be a mockery of everything that IWS stands for by a coward who always takes the easy way out to win matches whether that is winning a Fans Bring the Weapons match with Ether or beating Manny with a Sleeper or beating Franky the Mobster with ten consecutive low blows. (I would quote Manny only it would be 99% "Fuck")

ChallengerThe Wild Card is SeXXXy Eddy. At one point, he was Beef's henchman, sublimating his own needs to help Beef win the title. But during X, our Tenth Anniversary in a Fatal Four-Way Eddy proved that he was prepared to attack Beef to get back the IWS Title. On the other hand, Eddy hates Manny just about as much as Beef does, after years of Manny taking Eddy for granted and selfishly taking advantage of Eddy at every opportunity. (At least to hear Eddy tell it.) So the question is, how badly does Eddy want to win the IWS Title for a mind-boggling fifth time? And what will he do to try and win it?


Triple Threat! Triple Death!
IWS Praise the Violence 2010
Saturday, March 6th, 2010 Le Skratch, 965 Cure Labelle, Chomedey, Laval Doors Open at 8PM, Show Starts at 9PM Special Price: All Tickets are $10

As anyone who knows anything about Quebec wrestling backstage gossip knows, the IWS has been having a run of really bad luck. We had at least three shows ready to announce before venues crapped out on us. Our favourite venue The Medley was sold to someone who plans to tear it down and build condos. We ended up shit-canning our president Nic Paterson and replacing him with an executive committee to try and get things back on track. In fact, our first piece of good luck happened when the venue for Praise the Violence, Le Skratch caught on fire.

Maybe I should explain...

Le Skratch caught on fire, and if you went by there today it looks like shit on a plastic stick with half of the bar buried behind sheets of plastic as workers scurry to dry and repair the damage. Fortunately for us, the area where we do wrestling was completely untouched. By March 6th, Le Skratch should be completely fixed. But even if it isn't, Praise teh Violence will still happen. If we can't bring people in the front door, we will bring them in the back.

More news of matches and wrestler promos will be coming out over the next little while.

And I do have a special for IWS Hardcore Soldiers. A 20 and 10 for 2010, if you like. All tickets for Praise the Violence are $10, in advance or at the door, but for $20 you can get an IWS DVD and a ticket for Praise the Violence for $20.

I should also mention that if you love the idea of seeing the IWS for only $10 than come and bring your friends. If we get a big enough crowd at $10, we will be able to keep the ticket prices at that level.
