Where Did Eddie Get the Money for This, Don't Think Rhyming

Eddie Kingston vs. Justice Pain CZW 11/11/06 - GREAT

PAS: Kingston is a heel defending the CZW title against CZW icon Justice Pain. Pain gets an early advantage with some real crowbar forearms, but is constantly cut off by Blackout interfering on the floor. It was a bit of a slow start, until Pain was able to get the match to the floor. Then they had a fun arena tour with Kingston taking some big bumps, including a ride through dozens of stood up chairs, and getting a chair hurled into the small of the back. We get a hard hitting near fall section at the end of the match, including Pain snatching a really sick looking triangle choke. But that was interspersed with some booking, including a bloody Chris Hero running in to attack Kingston, and Pain grabbing the Blackout's valet and driving her face into Bryce Remsburg's dick (ahh Philly what a land of delicious pork sandwiches and repellent sex perverts). Pain isn't a guy who laid down a ton in CZW, so you have to put him down, and Kingston really did that with a series of big nasty lariats and a sick backfist to get the win.

Eddie Kingston vs. Sami Callihan CZW 10/10/09 - GREAT

PAS: This was Kingston's return match to CZW, and was in the midst of the Callihan vs. Havok feud right after Callihan slit Havoc's wrist. The idea was that Kingston was there to teach Sami a lesson, and their was some really stiff violent wrestling between these two. Splintering chops, thudding lariats to the side of the neck, exactly what you want these guys to do. There was a long Kobashi chop section in the corner which I didn't love, but otherwise this was just strafing. Finish was surprising, with Callihan hitting a low blow and a clothesline to the back of Eddie's head and neck (breaking his nose on the mat) for the win. Eddie's nose is just pulped, and this was clearly setting up a killer rematch that CZW never ran.

Eddie Kingston/Nick Gage/Justice Pain vs. Lufisto/Franky the Mobster/Kevin Steen/El Generico vs. Blackout (Robbie Marino/Sabian/Joker/Ruckus) CZW 8/12/06 - GREAT

PAS: This was a three team cage match (it was in the Cage of Death, but not listed as a Cage of Death match for some reason). I really enjoyed the early chaos, you had all 11 wrestlers recklessly brawling around the ring. We got a bunch of Eddie and Joker hitting each other hard which is always great, and Lufisto is really fun winging unprotected chair shots at peoples' heads. I was shocked at how much I dug Justice Pain in this, he isn't a guy I remember rating particularly high during the time, but he was taking crazy and athletic bumps into the cage and had a fun jacked meathead stand off with Franky the Mobster. The match really got very booking heavy at the end. When we got to the eliminations they came pretty quickly, which is always kind of the problem in elimination matches. There is a big standoff where everyone clears the ring and Pain sends Kingston (who had been turned on by Blackout earlier in the show) to face off with Ruckus to prove himself. Kingston is pretty much the perfect "I've got to prove myself wrestler" and the Ruckus section was good stuff. Steen had been bullying Lufisto, and she wins his Iron Man title by low blowing him and rolling him up (even though they were on the same team), Steen comes back and lays her out with a package piledriver, leaving her to be pinned by the H8 Club and Kingston. That is a really weird way for babyfaces to win a match like this, and H8 Club and Kingston were never in any particular peril, they just kind of ran through everyone. I think this ended up being lesser then the sum of its parts, although it had some really good parts,
