DRAGONSUPLEX Dojo Semester 2 Final Class
We began with a decision match for the next Undergrad to join the Final Exam field for Semester 3, as standouts "The Weekend Warrior" Gal Friday and Bryan "DIFW" Storm competed in front of a crowd for the first time, ending when Gal Friday managed to bundle Storm over the ropes, making her the second female Undergrad in the Dojo.
Ryan Zero and Psycho Killer would team against the larger Alexandra Stava and Richard Lyon in tag team action, the two duos very evenly matched as they looked to make a statement before the post-semester break. In the end Richard Lyon tried to hit the "Cat's Meow" Superkick but Zero ducked it and used a low bridge to send Lyon over the ropes for the win.
The last round of the Head of Class series matches began next as Matthew Turtle battled against Joss McKenzie. Turtle seemed more comfortable than his peers in dealing with the weight of the Man Called Moobs, focusing less on power moves and more on ground game before finishing off Joss with "Down With The Thiccness" (Standing SSP).
Next up was a tag showcase as new Graduate Frank Huxley would be scheduled to team with Guy Jordan against Johnny Morbid and Buzzy Bluedog, but Frank came out alone... then "Fly" by Blind Guardian played, the theme music of Xander Starr, who came out from behind the announcer desk and took a house mic:
Xander: "So... Guy Jordan is still under medical suspension by the State of Florida. He's going to be re-evaluated in a couple days and we're pretty confident that he'll be good to go for Semester 3. But hey, there's good news! I got a riddle for you all. Who has two thumbs... just got medically cleared to compete... and is wearing breakaway pants?"
Xander Starr ripped off his pants, revealing some spiffy new tights, then pointed his thumbs at himself before heading to the ring!
Morbid and Bluedog put up a fight with their streetfighting tactics but Huxley showed to be a quite a scrapper himself. Xander Starr himself took a while to shake off his ring rust (and there was a lot of it having not competed in over five years!), but near the end of the match we saw a bit of classic Xander Starr as he delivered a deja vu headscissors to Buzzy only to do the same to Morbid without skipping a beat! Xander did his trademark standing backflip pose bfore Buzzy took him down from behind looking for a chokehold, but Xander showed some AMATEUR WRESTLING skill of all things, driving into a double leg and quickly transitioning into a jujigatame armbar for the submission!
The next Head of Class match was next as Sergio Kontos was dealing with Dr Lobster's Evil Twin. Kontos did well at first but Dr Lobster snuck an eye rake in the early goings and it seemed to debilitate Sergio as he had a tough time getting back into momentum. As the match progressed Kontos was able to rally but just couldn't lock in the "OPA! Lock" (LaBell Lock) for the submission. He tried for the "Cretian Suplex" (Smith Special) but DLET grabbed the ropes, and when Kontos spun him around the evil lobster sprayed ink in his face! Kontos staggered against the official allowing the mad scientist to hit a low blow for the stolen win, ensuring that Kontos would not be put into the Head of Class championship match in the Semester 3 opener.
Next was a lumberjack match as Corey O'Brian wanted to confront Moist in the ring as a reponse to Moist's use of underhanded tactics to go 3-0 against the Graduates. Even with the Dojo surrouding the ring Moist was able to stall for several minutes with the aid of Morbid and Bluedog. Referee Matt Weston eventually got involved warning Morbid that if he kept aiding the stalling he and Bluedog would be ejected but while this was going on Moist snuck from behind with a foreign object (later recovered and to be revealed as a Nokia cellphone). Moist took control and nearly got the win with "Moisturizer" (Small Package Driver) but Corey managed to capitalize on a mistake, countering a huricanrana with a powerbomb. Corey continued to dominate, and eventually hit the "Core Meltdown" (Ganso Bomb). Morbid and Buzzy tried to interfere (this was NOT No DQ), but THE ENTIRE DOJO surrounded them as Matt Weston decided enough was enough and ejected them from the arena. Corey would deliver and powerful Shotei before slapping on a Kimura for the submission.
Finally Head of Class David Atwood would go one on one with former Pro Wrestling VICTORY champion, Yuuki Tsukino. Atwood's agressive tactics served him well but Tsukino the veteran managed to weather the early storm and relied on his unorthodox tactics and high flying. Atwood couldn't capitalize on "SALT I" (Death Valley Brainbuster) but hit the release powerbomb looking to follow up with the Running Shotei but Tsukino ducked it and delivered "Baka Bomb" (Super Freak") for the three count.

PGCW Semester 3 Opener
We began with the Undergrads Battle Royale for the half-point advantage. Gal Friday looked to make a good impression but was eliminated first at the hands of Ryan Zero. Guy Jordan, looking to make this the beginning of him finally graduating, tok down both Alexandra Stava and Richard Lyon but Guy Jordan would send him packing too. Zero looked to finish his dominating performance but Psycho Killer ducked his charge and Zero bundled over the rope.
Next we had Ken Archer being Xander Starr's first singles opponent since the career-threatening injury sustained in a vicious battery in UBL. Starr seemed to have shaken off the rust and was back to his high-flying self, however this was tempered with a more strike-heavy offense and even a grappling base we've never seen from Xander before. Ken Archer kept up with him every step of the way with his precision kicks and dynamic impact moves, but Xander countered "Archer's Arrow" (Michinoku Driver) with an Osaka Stunner, following up with two new maneuvers: A violent running knee called "Critical Mass" and a pinning comination dubbed "Eisenstein-Rosen Bridge" (Five Star Clutch) for the pin. A fantastic return to form for Your Friendly Neighborhood Xander Starr, and the crowd gave both men a standing ovation.
Our third match was the Head of Class head start match as Frank Huxley battled against Sergio Kontos in what is Huxley's first pro singles match. The physical brawler got an early advantage over the fiery tactician but as the match progressed Sergio would slowly gain control, but couldn't get the win with the "OPA! Lock" (Lebell Lock). Huxley would try to win with his 'High Noon' Piledriver but Sergio got his legs around The Roughneck's head, and a Huricanrana pin for the three count!
Next was a preview match featuring the guest competitors for the Head of Class series as first wave's Joey Venom, Brian Saint and Pizza Mask III fought the second wave of Brian Ka'Ana'Ana, Spoopy The Ghost, and "One Punch Girl" Gina Teller. What seemed to be a lopsided match on paper turned out to be incredibly even, however Brian Saint would deliver a "666 Splash" (Double Moonsault) knocking out Spoopy The Ghost for a KO win.
Our penultimate match featured Japanese superstar Yuuki Tsukino facing off against Corey O'Brian in a first time ever encounter. Corey's head was bandaged as a result of being ambushed and gashed open by Agent 1 in his last outing in UBL, and Tsukino was in control early on. Tsukino hit "Cosmic Shock" (Rev Gory Special Bomb Pin) but Corey got a hold of the ropes to break the pin, Tsukino would try again but Corey escaped and used a Saka-Otoshi takedown into "The 42" (Fish Stretch Sleeper) to nearly get the submission. Corey maintained control and despite nearly getting pinned by "Stormrider Clutch" (Headscissors Armbreaker Into Crucifix Pin), Corey would eventually manage to deliver the "Core Meltdown" (Ganso Bomb) for the three count, ending a phenomenal encounter that many in attendance called the greatest match they've ever seen live.
But the night was not over as Matthew Turtle would face David Atwood in the first one-on-one match for the Head of Class title. Everyone thought the juggernaut of power that is David Atwood would control this match but Turtle managed to gain the initiative, throwing Heavy Artillery off his game and putting him on the back heel. His physical, punishing tactics would carry him back in the fight, and he'd get a nearfall with a powerbomb followed by the Running Shotei, but when he tried for one of his SALT finishers, Turtle floated over, backdrop followed by "Down With The Thiccness" (Standing SSP) for the three count and a new champion!

YES! Xander with a huge career comeback and style evolution! Love the new signature names too. Sounds like Corey had an excellent match, perhaps not just in spite of but because of the bandage and recent events! I love what you are doing with this academic setup for the Dojo 😎 Oh also:
Ruby: "Damn it, I told you to break at least one of his thumbs!

The Final Exam series began with Alexandra Stava scoring a bit of an upset, dominating Psycho Killer with her size before counting a lariat into a small package. Guy Jordan began his quest to finally graduate, delivering a surprise huricanrana to pin Gal Friday, while Ryan Zero managed to outwit Richard Lyon and pin him with the legdrop bulldog.
In the Head of Class side of the equation, The Roughneck Frank Huxley scored a huge upset win, ducking under a Joey Venom Burning Lariat and hitting a spear for the spin. Brian Saint battled Sergio Kontos in a protracted war that ended with the veteran getting the cover with an outside cradle, while Pizza Mask managed to overcome the power of David Atwood with his agility pinning him with a corkscrew moonsault. Lastly Matthew Turtle would battle One Punch Girl Gina Teller, flattening her wih "Thicc Air" (Diving Senton) in an impressive performance.

Semester 3 Class 2
Psycho Killer would try to gain a foothold in Class 2 but Richard Lyon would instead get on the board with a small package pin. Ryan Zero would continue his momentum at the expense of Gal Friday with his Legdrop Bulldog, and in the match between two first round winners Guy Jordan would manage to topple Alexandra Stava with a lariat.
In the Head of Class side of things, Pizza Mask III and Frank Huxley would have a back and forth encounter ending when Pizza Mask hits "Stuffed Crust Stunner" (Shotgun) for the three count. Joey Venom dominated over Sergio Kontos but Kontos managed to use armwork, but Kontos ducked the Burning Lariat and delivered the "Cretian Suplex" (Smith Special) for the pinfall. David Atwood started a strong showing against Brian Saint but Saint capitalized on a mistake, knocking him out with "666 Splash" (Double Moonsault). It wasn't the only KO of the night as Spoopy The Ghost would end a back and forth contest against Matthew Turtle by KOing him with the "Scurry Shiranui" (Corner Destino). There's still a ways to go in both completions, plenty of time for people to turn things around!

Zero and Jordan battled for the top spot and while it seemed like this was Jordan's night he fell to Ryan Zero's legdrop bulldog.
In the Head of Class side of things, the graduates were in top form. Frank Huxley managed to take out the dangerous Brian Saint in a prolonged battle with a choke sleeper, and after a back and forth fast-paced encounter Sergio Kontos KOed Pizza Mask III with the "Cretian Suplex" (Smith Special), while David Atwood managed to answer Joey Venom's lethal Burning Lariat with a Running Shotei.

Semester 3 Class 4 Results
Ryan Zero had a chance to all but clinch the tournament tonight but Psycho Killer had no intention of letting Zero get there so easily, being in control for most of their bout before dodging an avalance to hit a Flying Elbow. This left Richard Lyon and Guy Jordan in a crucial position and it was the second generation wrestler who would capitalize with a lariat after a back and forth encounter. Gal Friday did her best in the first all-womens match in the Final Exam but Stava would block a dropkick and roll Friday up for the two count. This leads to all kinds of scenarios coming in to the final fixtures which will be broken down below.
Meanwhile in the Head of Class side of things Frank Huxley could not handle the size of Bobby Ka'Ana'Ana and got pinned by the "Ozeki Drop" (Banzai Drop) after surviving two spears and a torture rack. Sergio Kontos and Gina Teller had a prolonged battle as Kontos avoided Gina's powerful punches at all cost, eventually getting the pin with Huricanrana. Spoopy The Ghost would have a great showing against David Atwood but Heavy Artillery would resist the offense of the Scurry One and deliver his trademark Running Shotei for the pin. Lastly Pizza Mask III had a clinic with Matthew Turtle ending when 'Mr Oh Yes He Did' would win the day, capitalizing on Turtle missing "Thicc Air" (Diving Senton) by applying "Chicago Style" (Anaconda Vice) for the submission.
1. Psycho Killer d. Ryan Zero 11:23 via Flying Elbow
2. Richard Lyon d. Guy Jordan 14:30 via Lariat
3. Alexandra Stava d. Gal Friday 12:14 via Rollup Pin

Semester 3 Class 5
Guy Jordan couldn't win Head of Class but he was able to play spoiler, unfortunately that wasn't to be as Psycho Killer would get the pin with a Dragon Suplex. Richard Lyon now had better odds but this boost in confidence didn't help him much as Gal Friday would show a determination to win and hit a Dragon Suplex of her own to get a respectable 4 points in her first tournament. It all came down to the end, Alexandra Stava needed to win to end up in a three-way dance with her opponent Ryan Zero and Richard Lyon, but Zero wanted to leave nothing to chance, overcoming the power of Stava to apply a smooth half crab for the submission win.
Head of Class was less dramatic but the action no less intense, Frank Huxley fighting valiantly but falling to Spoopy The Ghost using an Ushigoroshi to follow up with "Spoopy Star Press" (Standing SSP) for the pin. Sergio Kontos showed his intensity with a drawn out bout with the masive Bobby Ka'Ana'Ana, shocking everyone with a "Cretian Suplex" (Smith Special) for the pin! David Atwood would defeat Gina Teller in a fairly one-sided bout with the Running Shotei, and Brian Saint would manage to put Turtle away in short order with the "666 Splash", meaning that Matthew Turtle will have a four-way match for his title at the Semester 4 opener.
1. Psycho Killer d. Guy Jordan 12:05 via Dragon Suplex
2. Gal Friday d. Richard Lyon 15:20 via Dragon Suplex
3. Ryan Zero d. Alexandra Stava 14:42 via Half Crab

DRAGONSUPLEX Dojo Semester 3 Finale
We started with the undergrads six-person tag as Richard Lyon and Psycho Killer paired up against newest undergrad Brian "DIFW" Storm (don't ask, the only one who seems to get it is Xander Starr) against Guy Jordan, Alexandra Stava and Gal Friday. While all six put on a great match and Storm nearly got the win for his team by throwing Friday over the top rope, the match would end in a twenty minute draw.
Next up was the debut of the newest graduate, as Ryan Zero (now going by Ryan 0) would face DRAGONSUPLEX alumni and former PGCW Openweight champion Ken Archer. Ryan showed an impressive striking game, a solid technical base and plenty of style (and not just in an aysymettric new hairstyle) and would pull off the upset win with a Reverse Tiger Suplex followed up with a Shooting Star Press.
Next was a cruiserweight clash as Xander Starr faces the up and coming Pizza Mask III. Starr tested the skills of the masked pizza boy, the match taking to the mat and to the air and back to the mat and back again in many points. It looked like Pizza Mask had it with "Chicago Style" (Anaconda Vice) but Starr managed to get free. Pizza Mask tried to put Xander up high for a top rope rana, but the veteran blocked it, sending Pizza Mask crashing to the mat before ending the match in classic Xander Starr fashion with his new finishing move, a Reverse 450 dubbed the "Supernova Press" for the three count.
Next came the Head of Class Series matches, and it was not a good outing for the Dojo. Frank Huxley would fall to a game Gina Teller, who would feint one of her patented haymakers to open Huxley up for a schoolperson and a pin. Sergio Kontos had a grinding battle with Spoopy the Ghost which ended in outcout when Spoopy hit an Ushigoroshi on the floor. David Atwood's power was just not enough to match the former Ozeki Bobby Ka'Ana'Ana who would pin him with "Kinboshi" (Kneeling Piledriver) after a series of punishing slams.
Corey O'Brian would head to the ring next and for a moment the dojo grew still as they waited to see who would be facing him. Then, the unmistakable sound of "Fade to Black" by Metallica would be heard and jaws would collectively drop as The Texas Reaper, 30-year veteran of the ring, would make his entrance. It was nearly two decades ago that a young O'Brian first tangled with the legend and now they would face off one more time as the Reaper's career winded down. It was a back and forth battle as Corey used his submissions to neutralize the legend's power but a chokeslam followed by "The Reaper's Due" (Dragon Sleeper) would start the momentum shift. The Reaper pressed the advantage until Corey managed to get a second wind, Kinniku Buster and the Dragon Suplex getting nearfalls. Corey went for the Sharpshooter but got caught in a triangle, Corey resorting to escaping with the ropes. The Reaper would smell blood looking for the move that put away countless foes, "Sickle Destroyer Slam" (Half Nelson Swinging Slam) but Corey managed to brilliantly reverse it into a Kimura! Reaper got to the ropes but once he started to get back to a vertical base, Corey pounced, immediately delivering "Core Meltdown" (Ganso Bomb), pulling Reaper away from the ropes before getting the three count.
Our main event featured Joey Venom facing off against Head of Class Matthew Turtle. Both men had something to prove as Turtle has had a lackluster semester while Joey Venom has been upset by all three of Turtle's fellow graduates. Venom's experience and streetfighting tactics gave him the early advantage but Turtle was able to turn the tides by using a backflip Samoan Drop to deliver an early "Thicc Air" (Diving Senton) for a two count. Turtle was able to press his advantage before a second Thicc Air missed and Venom took control, nearly taking Turtle's head off with a Burning Lariat for a 2.9. A pair of flying elbows followed up and the "Venom Spike" (Sitout Gordbuster) would be a precursor for another Burning Lariat, but Turtle ducked and countered with "Turtle Powerbomb" (Blue Thunder) for the three count! A strong statement from the Head of Class as he'll have to defend his title in a four-way dance at the Semester Four opener.
1. Lyon/Killer/Storm vs Jordan/Stava/Friday went to a 20:00 Time Limit Draw
2. Ryan 0 d. Ken Archer 18:33 via Shooting Star Press
3. Xander Starr d. Pizza Mask III 17:09 via "Supernova Press" (Reverse 450)
4. Gina Teller d. Frank Huxley 14:14 via Schoolperson
5. Spoopy The Ghost d. Sergio Kontos 17:05 via Countout
6. Bobby Ka'Ana'Ana d. David Atwood 12:01 via "Kinboshi" (Kneeling Piledriver)
7. Corey O'Brian d. The Texas Reaper 20:23 via "Core Meltdown" (Ganso Bomb)

Not an update, but since my Steam has been unborked I'm able to upload edits again, and forgot to upload Ryan 0. Here he is: steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1838090535Texas Reaper is uploaded too, as are pretty much everyone except the undergrads in this card. The undergrads aren't published cause, well, there's not really much to them until they graduate. |

DRAGONSUPLEX Dojo Semester 4 Opener
The fourth semester in the Dojo began with the Final Exam Battle Royale. It began with Psycho Killer getting the early burst of momentum, eliminating Guy Jordan as Alexandra Stava was eliminated by John Lyon, but when Killer tossed out Bryan Storm he then went out of the ring and knocked Bryan on his ass with a stiff elbow! Everyone was stunned and Gal Friday and Richard Lyon would get between them keeping Killer off, eventually Corey O'Brian emerging from the back and giving instructions to the ref as he helped Bryan Storm to the back. Back in the ring Gal Friday would eliminate Richard Lyon and Psycho Killer in short order but nobody seemed to be very thrilled with what just transpired.
The mood got lightened as the hardcore legend October Raven would come out to fight "The Mercenary" Kurt Mauser, who recently made his debut in Bone Collection Wrestling by costing October Raven a chance at the BCW title held by Rallaster. The action was wild and rowdy and got into the stands at one point but eventually it got back into the ring, Mauser trying to win it with "Kill Confirmed" (Bloody Cross) but the legend got a foot on the ropes. Mauser tried to capitalize but got thrown into the ropes, HEAD LARIAT but Mauser tanked it, only to get slammed to the mat and hit with "Iced Earth" (Top Rope Splash) for the pin. Both men got a standing ovation and spirits picked right back up.
Next was a six-person tag between Renegade Angel, Johnny Morbid and Rallaster vs Soldier 2501, Princess Ranger, and Alena Sturmbjorn, with the falltaker being the only one of the group who won't get to face off in a showcase against the Head of Class. It was mostly speed vs power (Though Alena was the powerhouse of her team and Angel the speedster) in a back and forth duel but Princess Ranger would hit a picture-perfect "Supergirl Punch EX" (Springboard Superman Punch) on Renegade Angel for the big win.
The second half of the night would start with Ryan 0, Florida Man, and Harlan Sanders IV battling in a Head of Class Series preview. It was fast paced and chaotic as 0's dynamic style clashed with Florida Man's wild brawling and Sanders relied on picking cheap shots when someone was vulnerable. Florida Man would gouge Sanders with a foreign object and after Matt Weston confiscated it and admonished the self-proclaimed 'Meth In The World', Ryan slapped an Octopus Hold on Sanders forcing a submission. Ryan looked to heft Florida Man up for "Divide By 0" (Storm Breaker) but Florida Man powered out of it, answering with "Bullet With Butterfly Wings" (Pedigree) for the pin.
Next the Arch Rivals, DRAGONSUPLEX alumni Ken Archer and PGCW Openweight Champion Jim Rival, would reunite for the first time since Ken Archer was kicked out of CHICKEN CLUB to face the head and co-head trainer of the dojo, Corey O'Brian and Xander Starr, the Florida Dream Team, in FDT's first match since Xander came back from injury. The four put on a certified clinic for over half an hour, and it seemed like the upset of the century was going to take place as Ken Archer nearly pinned Corey O'Brian with "Archer's Arrow" (Michinoku Driver) but when he went for "Archer's Arrow III: Third Strike" (One-Winged Angel) Corey slipped out, dragged Ken to the mat, and put him in "The 42" (Fish Stretch Sleeper) for the submission.
And last but not least it was time for the Head of Class championship match, four-way dance between Frank Huxley, David Atwood, Sergio Kontos and reining champ Matthew Turtle. Kontos was dominant for most of the matchup, getting the first elimination by knockout with the "Cretian Suplex" (Smith Special) on Frank Huxley and catching Matthew Turtle with a huricanrana to ensure a new champion. But it was the runaway power of David Atwood that would carry the day, "SALT II" (Ushigoroshi) and "SALT I" (Fireman's Carry Brainbuster) would get kicked out of but Atwood would keep the pressure, powerbomb followed up with the Shotei Lariat and David Atwood is once again Head of Class.

DRAGONSUPLEX Dojo Semester 4 Class 1
The Final Exam would kick off with Psycho Killer's replacement, the metalhead Kerry Barnes, facing off against Richard Lyon and putting up a good fight until Lyon blocked a superplex and countered with a flying elbow. Alexandra Stava had a good showing against Gal Friday as she dominated most of their match ending with a flying elbow as well. Lastly Bryan Storm would battle the struggling Guy Jordan and after a hard fought battle would manage to catch Jordan with a rollup to win his first points in Final Exam.
On the Head of Class side the spoilers would battle first in a wild contest as Florida Man would fight Harland Sanders IV and eventually put him away with the "Tampa Bay Plunge". Ryan 0 weathered a storm of brutal offense from Frank Huxley, surviving Huxley's famous High Noon Piledriver and answering with a Shooting Star Press for the win. Matthew Turtle and Sergio Kontos put on a mat wrestling clinic that one would expect from students of Corey O'Brian, Kontos getting the win with a kneedrop followed by the "Minos Clutch" (Delphin Clutch)
In our main event Soldier 2501 would come out with a flurry of high energy kicks but David Atwood's power was just too much for the black ops agent who found herself dominated by the Head of Class' sheer power and falling to the Shotei Lariat.

Semester 4 Class 2
In Final Exam action the two newcomers to the tournament would square off with Kerry Barnes managing to get the better of Bryan Storm with a small package. Guy Jordan delivered the highlight of the tournament so far, managing to deliver a (very brief lift) press slam on Alexandra Stava. Lastly Gal Friday would best Richard Lyon with a rollup, and all six competitors have points on the board making this contest wide open!
In Head of Class tournament action Harland Sanders managed to outlast Frank Huxley getting a pin with a low blow out of the referee's sight. Matthew Turtle got in a bloody contest with Florida Man but managed to counter the "Tampa Bay Plunge" (Tiger Driver) but with a backdrop managed to set up "Down With The Thiccness" (Standing SSP) for the pin). Lastly Ryan 0 and Sergio Kontos had a thrilling back and forth contest and it seemed like Kontos had the upper hand with the "OPA! Lock" (LeBell lock) but Ryan escaped, Kontos looking for the huricanrana but 0 countered with a powerbomb pin for the victory.
Last was the showcase match as Princess Ranger went up against David Atwood. Atwood seemed to be in total control at first but Princess Ranger learned from the mistakes of Soldier 2501 and answered with elusiveness and precise kicks. Atwood survived the Supergirl Punch and "Supergirl Punch EX" (Springboard Superman Punch) but it was a huricanrana followed by a standing moonsault that would lead to the shocking win!
