Worlf Of Sport Episode 1 Review (28/07/18)
The commentary team is British wrestling legend, Alex Shane and so cal val and later they are joined by Stu Bennett.
The show starts off with Stu Bennett saying that this is the new generation of British wrestling. Grado interrupts saying that when he won the World Of Sport wrestling title, it was the happiest day of his life. But Grado might regret interrupting the wos executive as he says that there will be a 5 way elimination match where the winner will face Grado tonight in the main event for the wos title.
The 5 way match is crater taking on Sha Samuels vs Adam Maxted vs Rampage vs Justin Sysum. The first match of the new era of British wrestling is on as Crater dominates but might not know the rules as he doesn't break the 5 count and gets disqualified. Rampage and Sha Samuels are working together to gain an advantage over everyone else but a spirited fight back from Justin and he gets a quick roll up on Samuels and he is out of there. As the final three battle it out for a few minutes, Rampage is taken out and Justin hits Maxted with a dive to the outside Justin gets back in to the ring but Maxted gets counted out but the ref doesn't see that Samuels helped Rampage back into the ring and rings the bell signifying that Justin is the winner. Stu Bennett says he will be in the main event but just can't let this injustice go and makes tonight's main event a triple threat between Grado defending his championship against Rampage and Justin Sysum.
The next match is Will Osprey vs Davey Boy Smith Jr. A good match which is what you’d expect from Will Osprey, the story told in this match was Davey Boy targeting the legs to nullify his High flying offence but Osprey fought through hitting his moves near falls from both men but osprey spring boarded but was caught by the British bulldog and hit him with a power slam from the top rope. 1...2....3 Davey boy Smith has pinned Will Osprey.
Backstage now and lestyn Rees and Kip Sabian interviewed by Rachel Stringer about there chances of winning the tag title tournament and they basically said that they are going to win and no one can beat them.
Martin Kirby and Joe Hendry are their opponents and I really enjoyed this match a solid tag team match back and forth between the two teams but Hendry went for a roll up but accidentally hit his tag partner off the apron then he goes to tag in Kirby after he gets back on the apron but walks out on Hendry . So it's basically now a handicap match but surprisingly it's Hendry who dominates them, even hitting the freak of nature on both men at the same time but unfortunately he can't keep it up as kip and Rees hit the tag team finisher and get the pin and move on to the semi finals of the tag title tournament.
Main event time as Grado defends against Justin Sysum and Rampage a good main event that showed off the best of all three men Grado as champion has his work cut out for him and looks to have the match won as he hit the cutter on Rampage but Sysum just breaks up the pin.
After a few more minutes Sysum hits Grado with the finisher but Rampage takes advantage throws Sysum out of the ring hits an impaler ddt on Grado and wos has crowned a new world heavyweight champion and his name is Rampage.
A welcome return to Itv and its great that it's on at a reasonable time of 5pm gmt the only complaint I have was there was 1 or 2 times the camera cut after a big move but it didn't take away from my enjoyment of the show and its back next for 10 whole episodes and you can imagine where the reviews are going to be. That's right over here on allthingscombat.
Next week there going to crown a women's champion between viper Bea Priestley and Kay Lee Ray another tag team title tournament match and a ladder match where the winner gets an opportunity of a lifetime it looks like a money in the bank equivalent.
