Cannon won the match when he pinned Fire Ant.

Cat lady burlesque from Sweetpea.

SCW St. Paul, MN 12/8/17

Time/Date: 7 p.m. Friday December 8, 2017
City, State: St. Paul, MN
Venue: Eagles Club

SCW is the newest independent pro wrestling promotion in the Minneapolis/St. Paul area. This is their third event at this venue but they also run events in Eau Claire, WI. A lot of the wrestlers on this card were trained at The Academy of Pro Wrestling.

In the opening match Kal Creed defeated Sterling Bond. Going by their ring gear this match was Superman VS The Joker. Going by that the crowd should have known right away that Creed/Superman would win. Superman always wins. Except when he battled Doomsday.

Kyle Pro & Leonard Literacy defeated JDX & Edvin Cudic. I really like JDX's nick name, "Beyond Average". It reminds me of Mike "Above Average" Sanders from WCW. I like a guy who brags about being a C+ player.

SCW Future Clash champion Ricky Noren defeated El Angel Dorado to retain the title. Oh, check it out. There is a new referee on the scene. Her name is Kara. Nice to see a female referee.

Nathen Edwards defeated Air Wolf.

Brandon Gore has one of the best t shirts.

Arik Cannon pinned Brandon Gore. This was a teacher VS student match where the teacher showed the student that he still has a lot to learn.

In a 6 man tag match Rylie Jackson, ESQ IV & James Tapia defeated Tomahawk Kid, Red Lightning & Koda Jacobs.

In the main event Lore defeated Kevin Lee Davidson and Darin Corbin in a 3 way dance. Or was it a triple threat?

SCW returns to the Eagles Club in St. Paul on Friday January 5, 2018.

Time/Date: 8 p.m. Thursday December 7, 2017
City, State: Minneapolis, MN
Venue: Uptown VFW

This was the first time that F1RST Wrestling held an event at the Uptown VFW. The event sold out at the door.

The opening match was a 4 man 2 animal scramble match. In that match were Ryan Cruz, Scott Story, Giant Griffin, "Filth King" Brubaker, Wild Cat and Super Thunder Frog.

Ryan Cruz was the winner of the match.

After the match Ryan Cruz was attacked by his estranged tag team champion partner Darin Corbin. The fate of the F1RST Wrestling tag team titles will be decided on January 6, 2018 at Wrestlepalooza XI.

FEST champion Su Young defeated Rain to retain the title. Rain made her return to F1RST Wrestling after 10 years. She was on the very first F1RST Wrestling event back in April 2007. Hope it's not another 10 years before Rain is back in a F1RST Wrestling ring.

"All Ego" Ethan Page defeated Jimmy Jacobs and Air Wolf in a 3 way match. Page pinned Air Wolf for the 3 count. It's nice to see Jacobs back on the independent scene. 

The Wrestling Revolver tag team champions Besties in the World ( Davey Vega & Mat Fitchett) took on Zero Gravity (Brett Gakiya & CJ Esparza).

Zero Gravity defeated Besties in the World to win the Wrestling Revolver tag team titles.

Chaos 300 defeated Officer Rob Justice. Look close at Chaos 300's trunks. It says "300" not "BOO".

In the main event Arik Cannon & Tommy Dreamer defeated Darin Corbin & Abyss. This was a hardcore match. Items used included toilet seat, cheese grater and thumb tacks. Dreamer got the 3 count on Corbin for the win after a DVD on chairs.

F1RST Wrestling returns to the Uptown VFW on Thursday March 22, 2018. Get your tickets before they sell out.
