A lot of news for Gate City recently, especially following the first ever show, Sunday Night Storm. A big congratulations goes out to the winners of the first round of the GCW Heavyweight Championship Tournament. Here are the results of the very first show.
Results for 5/27 Sunday Night Storm
The Ringmaster defeated Apollo Mercer at 3:32 when he distracted the referee by saying that Tom Hanks was in the audience. When the ref turned around, The Ringmaster connected with a low blow for the 3 count.
Dave Milan defeated Arik Arrogance at 7:24 when he reversed Arik's small package pin.
David Hilt defeated Nightkiller at 9:05 with the Crossguard.
Elijah Cage defeated Gianni Sipriani at 4:15 with a Moonsault.
Teddy Davis defeated Lance Erikson at 17:12 in an instantly classic matchup when Teddy reversed Erikson's superplex into a pinfall. During the match, Arik Arrogance interfered on behalf of Lance Erikson, breaking him out of a Crossface Chickenwing. Dave Milan came in for the save. More on this later.
Next week Dave Milan will be facing off against David Hilt, and Elijah Cage will be facing Teddy Davis in the Semi-Finals for the GCW Heavyweight Championship tournament. Also booked for next week is Nightkiller vs. The Ringmaster, and recent GCW acquisition Jake DeMarte will be facing Lance Erikson. Before that, in a dark match, there will be a three way match between Gianni Sipriani, Apollo Mercer, and GCW newcomer Generic Man.
Regarding Arik Arrogance not being booked next week, he has been suspended indefinitely for the actions taken in the Teddy Davis/Lance Erikson match. William Ellis was quoted to say that "Behavior such as this is unacceptable, and will not be tolerated in GCW." When asked why he would interfere in the main event after the show, Arik merely flipped us the bird and left with his manager, Mean Marky.
There has been rumors regarding the acquisition of former HWL fighter Zelenka. According to sources, his close companion Jake DeMarte has recommended that Zelenka come to Gate City Wrestling. Zelenka could not be contacted to confirm or deny these rumors.
