We’re a little over 24 hours away from the biggest event of the year… Warriorversary. Every title is on the line. Grudges will be settled. Blood will be spilt. A celebration of one year in business, Warrior Pro Wrestling is pulling out all the stops. Match Previews: Tank McDaniel/El Macho vs Kerry Texan (AAW)/Johnny Sixnames (TIPW)A hellova show starter with 4 legends of the squared circle facing off against each other in a tag match. El Macho and Tank will be teaming up for the first time in almost 25 years to face AAW’s resident ageless badass Kerry Texan, and Texas International’s silent assassin Johnny Sixnames. This one is only for promotional pride, but should show off pro wrestling’s glorious past before shifting to its bright future. Brick vs Roy CarterIt was only a few weeks ago that these two looked like the most dominant tag team in the business, dispatching everyone in their path. But the G2 tournament provided a glimpse at fractures in the overall Jackson Hole Outlaw team- specifically between Brick and leader Doc Wyatt. It was only inevitable that Roy would choose sides, and siding with Doc means he gets tasked with putting down the teams former enforcer. iWe Intercontinental Title Match: Rampage Hunter vs King Nyabinghi (iWe)Rampage Dirk II will be a favorite for MotY, and it proved that Rampage is one of the brightest young star’s in the business. His first title defense will be against King Nya, who is looking to build a similar reputation by defeating the former Warrior Pro champion and bringing the iWe Intercontinental title back to his home promotion. This could be a sleeper contender for match of the night. Landmine Deathmatch: Machine Gun Mayhem vs Obnoxio (iWe)Two of the strangest and most dangerous wrestlers in the world today will face off in what is sure to be a brutal bloody match. Machine Gun issued an open challenge to anyone back at the G2 Finals, and iWe’s resident psychopath answered the bell in spades. It was just announced that this match will be a Landmine Deathmatch, so except one (or both) men to be dragged out of the building before all is said and done. Warrior Pro Tag Team Title Match: Gears of War vs Baron FamilyGears of War, who won the belts from the Jackson Hole Outlaws in convincing fashion at Warrior Grounds #11, avenging their only loss as a team, will face a stiff first defense in the Baron Family. Both Vic and Austin have something to prove, and a win would remove the sting of the recent Training Ground fiasco. “Lanky” Lefty McDaniel vs Lance Marshall (Phoenix Rising)Lefty’s shocking announcement has given us a first time match up, as the resident Cowboy of Phoenix Rising makes his first Warrior Pro Wrestling appearance against a man looking to springboard a win into a title shot. Can Lefty shock the world and deliver the upset? Or will Warrior Pro fans be the latest to see why the name Lance Marshall is common to wrestling fans around the world? Warrior Pro World Heavyweight Title Match: ”Gentleman” Doc Wyatt vs John LoganOne could say this is the end of a year long storyline. These two men have faced exactly twice. The first time was a year ago for the G2 tournament win and the vacant championship, which Doc won. The second was last month again for the G2 tournament win and a shot at the title, which Logan won. Now we get the rubber match. Can Doc ring in Warrior Pro’s second year the same as the first, further cementing his claim as the best in the business? Or will John Logan finally win the big one, and wear the championship belt that has continued to elude him his entire career?
We find out tomorrow, 7/18 @6pm PST Warriorversary will be LIVE on TWITCH

Warriorversary was a wild show, with some entertaining matches up and down the card. Scroll down for full matches and recaps, as well as some post show interviews that will set the stage fore the promotion going forward… Tank McDaniel/El Macho vs Kerry Texan (AAW)/Johnny Sixnames (TIPW)Recap: A who’s who of legendary wrestlers made up the opening tag match, which saw two mainstream legends in Macho and Tank take on two of the toughest to ever lace them up. Sixnames and Texan busted both their opponents open, and it seemed like an inevitability that they would stand tall in the end. But El Macho obviously had something to prove- and a pair of “Macho Splashes” would give himself and Warrior Pro’s owner the victory.
Winner: Tank McDaniel and El Macho Rating: **** Brick vs Roy CarterRecap: Two former tag team partners with a score to settle, this one got physical right from the start. Brick looked dominant early, but the younger, faster Roy Carter weathered the storm and waited for Brick to gas before picking the big man apart and an impressive suplex for the victory.
After the match Roy again slapped on the armbar on Brick, refusing to let go till he was dragged off by security. Despite being shown with the arm heavily wrapped in ice after the show, reports are that Brick suffered no long term injury.
Winner: Roy Carter Rating: *** iWe Intercontinental Title Match: Rampage Hunter (c) vs King Nyabinghi (iWe)Recap: For the second straight show, iWe’s Intercontinental Championship match proved to be one of the highlights of the show, proving that the rival promotion has one of the most exciting rosters around. King Nya and Rampage brawled all over the arena, tossing each other around and trying to consistently one up the other with big power moves. The difference in the match came down to King Nya being able to a consistently avoid the Lights Out powerbomb, while nailing Rampage with multiple Small Package Bombs, the last one proving too much for the champ.
After the match, King Nya helped Rampage to his feet and the men exchanged a respectful handshake before Rampage left the ring and the new champ celebrated.
Winner: Annnnnd NEEEEEEW Champion King Nyabinghi Rating: ***** Landmine Deathmatch: Machine Gun Mayhem vs Obnoxio (iWe)Recap: An extremely odd match from two extremely odd wrestlers. Despite the deathmatch stipulation, both men seemed to avoid the landmines and light tubes, opting instead to wrestle a traditional match. It got so bad that at one point Obnoxio just ran into the light tube board to get some use out of it. Perhaps that was MGM’s strategy, because while Obnoxio became distracted with roughing up the match, Machine Gun delivered a pair of vicious running kicks that knocked the hardcore clown clean out.
Winner: Machine Gun Mayhem Rating: ** Warrior Pro Tag Team Title Match: Gears of War (c) vs Baron FamilyRecap: Hands down one of the best tag team matches in Warrior Pro all year. GoW came ready to defend, hitting double powerbombs on both Barons, and even nailing a Doomsday Device to the Austin. But the Barons had something to prove in this one, and an Olympic Slam from Vic Baron was enough to knock out the defending champs.
Winner: AAAAAANNNDD NEEEEEW Champions The Baron Family Rating: **** “Lanky” Lefty McDaniel vs Lance Marshall (Phoenix Rising)Recap: Lanky Lefty came into the match wanting to show that he should be taken seriously, and you’d be hard pressed not to after this effort. Lefty matched the big man shot for shot, and back to back Left Handed Scissors seemed to put an exclamation point on an impressive coming out party. Except nobody told Lance Marshall he was supposed to lose. The cowboy proved why he’s a legend in this business by shaking off both cutters, and hitting a devastating running powerbomb for the victory.
Winner: Lance Marshall Rating: **** Warrior Pro World Heavyweight Title Match: “Gentleman” Doc Wyatt (c) vs John LoganRecap: A war. That’s what this match was. No feeling out process, no pacing. Both men went straight at each other and the match became an instance brawl. Logan picked up where he left off in there match last month and brought the fight to the champ, even hitting an early Logan’s Run for a near fall. Doc would counter by relentlessly attacking the legs of John Logan with a few figure fours that seemed destined to end the match. But each time Logan fought free, and eventually two sitting Logan’s Runs Looked to be enough to end the match and crown a new champion. But it didn’t matter. Doc, through sheer will was not going to be pinned tonight. A desperation dive to the outside, something we haven’t seen from him, changed the momentum just enough, and distracted the referee just enough, for Doc to pull out his patented brass knuckles and KO Logan with a thunderous punch.
Winner: Doc Wyatt Rating: ***** Several wrestlers spoke with the media after the show… Roy Carter
The Baron Family Austin takes the mic as Vic stands beside him…
Machine Gun Mayhem Numerous reports have indicated Machine Gun was running around the locker room screaming “You wanna see me bleed huh??? I’LL SHOW YOU BLOOD. “ as he repeatedly smashed light tubes over his own head. Warrior Pro had no comment on the altercation…
Doc Wyatt
John Logan John Logan walks over to Doc as he’s finishing up his interview. There is still significant swelling around the eye where he tool the brass knuckles.
Logan: You cheating piece of crap.
Doc: Excuse me?
Logan: You heard me. That match was done. You- were done. So you couldn’t help yourself, I’m fucking sick of it.
Doc: And I’m sick of you. You wanna go again? One ass kicking isn’t enough, you wanna make it a double header?
Logan: You can’t beat me straight up. We both know it. You have to cheat.
Doc: You are such a baby. Fine, lets eliminate any reason for you to complain when I give that black eye a brother. Next month, we do this one last time. In a cage. No DQ. No motherfucking excuses.
Logan: No DQ? Its your funeral. Lets do it.

Coming on the heels of a their massive anniversary show, there is tons of chatter happening around Warrior Pro Wrestling right now. Here are the biggest stories being discussed: Warrior Pro’s Brick (real name Otto Casey)- who missed a scheduled appearance at last Friday’s Wacker Drive Revival show last week, quietly had shoulder surgery on Monday as a result of the post-match armbar delivered by former tag team partner Roy Carter. While we don’t know the nature of the injury, sources indicate the injury may keep him out 3-6 months. Its official, John Logan vs Doc Wyatt for the championship will headline Warrior Pro’s as yet to be announced August show. The match is expected to be no DQ and in a cage. One has to assume this would be a blow off match, and could be Logan's last shot at the belt for the foreseeable future. The recent success of Rampage Hunter winning the iWe Intercontinental championship has convinced Tank McDaniel that the promotion is ready to have its own secondary singles title. Rumor is the initial champion will be crowned via a single elimination 16-man tournament. While nothing is confirmed, it is believed that the tournament will be held later this summer and include wrestlers from outside the company. Wonderland was spotted back in LA at his dojo, the first time people have seen him since he ditched his position as head trainer of Warrior Pro. The company has been silent on Wondy’s status with the company, though sources say the issue will be addressed at the next Warrior Pro taping, tentatively schedule to be in a couple of weeks. And finally, Jimmy Hawkins contract with AAW quietly expired over the weekend. While he may still be taking dates with the company, a return to Warrior Pro Wrestling seems inevitable…

Its fight week, and this Friday starts the build to the first show post Warriorversary: DOOMSDAY. Warrior Grounds #12 will feature a main event rematch of one of the biggest upsets of the year, plus the tournament to decide who will face off to be the number one contender for the tag team gold. Tank McDaniel will also be on hand to address the crowd regarding the latest around Wonderland. Tune back here on Friday, August 16th for all the matches, recaps, and reviews of Warrior Grounds #12 Match Previews: The Reed Brothers vs The MassholesOur first match to determine who will go on to DOOMSDAY to determine the number one contender pits the Reed Brothers against Warrior Pro’s resident drunkards. Maverick Reed is coming off of a runner up finish in the 49th Parallel and will try to use that momentum to kick start a tag team that has under performed so far. The Massholes have been holed up in a Vegas lounge for the past couple months, though Tommy did briefly sneak out for a match in Chicago to fight, of all people, Colossus Rhodes Mr. Moonsault. The Reeds should be favored but who knows what to expect from their lamppost fighting opponents. Gears of War vs The Gold StandardGoW’s run as champs was shockingly short after taking down the reigning champs just ahead of Warriorversary. They’ll look to get back on track by facing a pair of Wonderland Dojo disciples that will be out to prove something. This one should be hard hitting and could be a sneaky pick for Match of the Night. Rampage Hunter vs Byron “Prime Time” WorthyWhat was supposed to be a tune up fight a few months ago turned into the upset of the year as Young Gun trainee Byron Worthy pulled off a shocking upset over the former Heavyweight Champ Rampage Hunter. Now a full-fledged roster member and aligned to the Wonderland Dojo, Worthy will get a chance to prove that the first win wasn’t a fluke. For Rampage, he’ll try and shake off a disappointing run as iWe Intercontinental Champion with a win that could get him back in the hunt for more.

Actually, it was Mr. Moonsault...
But in any case, this looks like a quality show, pulling for the Massholes, and Worthy vs. Hunter is going to be a great match, I'm thinking Rampage pulls it off, but Worthy demonstrates his, well, worth in defeat.

Earlier today a video appeared on iWe’s website completely replacing the front page before being taken down with no reference to it. The video has since been circulated around the internet. We advise that the imagery is graphic in nature…The video opens with a black screen, before Machine Gun Mayhem walks into frame, the camera zoomed in on his face, bleeding profusely from a serious cut over his forehead.

Warrior Grounds #12 The show kicks off with Warrior Pro Wrestling owner Tank McDaniel walking to the ring to a steady stream of cheers. As he gets into the ring a microphone is handed to him...The Reed Brothers vs The MassholesRecap: The Massholes looked surprisingly sober and ready to do battle, but the Reeds controlled this match most of the way. There was a brief moment where it looked like a double team from the Boston superfans might lead to an upset, but Maverick- who has been on fire lately- quickly snuffed it out and finished off the match with a running knee.
Winner: The Reed Brothers Rating: *** Gears of War vs The Gold StandardRecap: Interesting to note that Gold and Classic were introduced as “Wonderland Dojo” instead of their typical tag team name, with Gold even ripping up a Baron Family sign on his way to the ring. This match was a hard hitting affair that saw both teams looking to end early. A thunderous chokeslam from Riot seemed to spell the end but a late save from Stan Classic, and a rollup from Jack Gold on Bobby Clash gave Gold Standard the surprising upset victory.
After the match both members of Gold Standard put the boots to GoW and then continued to go after Baron Family signage…
Winner: The Gold Standard Rating: **** Rampage Hunter vs Byron “Prime Time” WorthyRecap: Similar to the last match, Byron Worthy came out with Stan Classic and they were announced as part of Wonderland Dojo. The match itself picked up where the first confrontation between these two left off. Worthy displayed impressive strength that seemed to neutralize Rampage’s power in a way that few wrestlers are able to do. But Rampage seemed better prepared this time around and eventually all it took was one Lights Out powerbomb to seal the deal.
Winner: Rampage Hunter Rating: *** After the match, as the winner was celebrating his victory a man jumped the rail and entered the ring… JIMMY HAWKINS laid out Rampage with a superkick. As the fans let out a combination of boos and cheers, Hawkins celebrated in the ring before requesting a mic, and uttering a quick statement before leaving the ring with a satisfied grin… “I’m back bitches.”
