-A decent night of OVW, with a well built TV Main
event with David Flair challenging The Prototype
for the OVW Heavyweight Title.
-Flash & Trailer Park Trash vs. Machine & Damaja w/Victoria
-Damaja and Trailer Park Trash started out in the ring
trading various arm reversals, as the Davis Arena
crowd began to warm up. Damaja persisted to chop TPT
blocking Trash's every attempt, eventually tagging in
"Machine" Doug Basham. Eventually Flash gains the tag
and the two double team on Basham, finally gaining the
offense with a leg drop. Flash hit a Jerry Lynn-like
sunset flip off of the top rope into a powerbomb which
was very impressive to say the least. The team dubbed
as the "Revolution", Basham and Damaja, eventually picked
up the victory after their double team move, where
Damaja holds the opponent as Basham flys in with a
top rope forearm.
-Winners via pinfall Machine and Damaja
-Shelton Benjamin w/ Nidia vs. Big Bad John
DARK MATCH
-Big Bad John took the immediate offense as he towered
over Benjamin, but the quick feet and agile movement
of Shelton got the best of John as he quickly turned
the tides on the former Revolution member. After a
series of armdrag manuevers Big Bad John came back with
a vicious punch to the mid-section of Benjamin sending
him down to the canvas, but only getting a two count.
Eventually after a series of big powermoves by John
the resilient Benjamin blocked John's chokeslam attempt
and rolled him up with the schoolboy gaining the pinfall
and the victory.
-Winner via pinfall Shelton Benjamin
-Bull Buchanon vs. Mark Henry
-This being the return of Mark Henry, as he hasn't been
seen in OVW for quite a few months. Henry opened the
match completely dominating Buchanon not even letting
him get as much as an armbar in. Eventually Bull
reversed Henry and deliverd a huge lariat bringing
the big man down to the canvas. The crowd was completely
behind Henry cheering for him to make it back to his
feet, as he finally did, dodging Bull Buchanon's top
rope leg drop. Henry then tossed Buchanon into the
air, which appeared very odd, as Bull fell down right
onto his knees. Henry then applied the Torture Rack,
but as Bull was about to submit, his new partner Big
Bad John stormed the ring attacking Henry forcing the
ref to call for the bell, DQ'ing Buchanon. Eventually
Trailer Park Trash and Flash stormed the ring to make
the save. After the match TPT, Henry and Flash joined
Jim Cornette in the commentator's booth and announced
that because of the events, and the scheduled match
squaring off TPT/Flash against Bull/Big Bad John, that
Mark Henry decided he would be the special referee,
with Cornettes concent. The show will be on April 5th
at Six Flags Kentucky Kingdom with a 5:30 belltime.
-Winner via DQ Mark Henry
-For the Taping, Jim Cornette announced to the Television
Audience only that Nidia and Synn crossed paths in Toronto
at WWF Fan Axess and apparently had some sort of physical
confrontation. Footage was then shown to the Audience at
home.
-Next was an in ring interview segment with Jim Cornette
joined by Nick Dinsmore and Rob Conway. Dinsmore and
Conway both talked of their match April 5th and how
they were going to win. Nothing much more developed for
the match. They talked about how everyone's future
rides on this match in OVW, somewhat reminscent of the
Invasion Main Event.
-David Flair vs. The Prototype w/ Kenny Bolin
OVW HEAVYWEIGHT TITLE MATCH
TV MAIN EVENT
-Overall a very well done match. Flair once again did
not seem to be too charismatic while coming down to
the ring, although his in ring ability has improved
dramatically. Flair had his knee bandaged up as well
as Prototype worked strongly on it throughout the
entire match. Flair did pull off a Swinging Tornado
DDT early on in the match but only managed to pull
off a two count. He then went for the Figure Four
but Bolin Services owner Kenny Bolin got on the ring
apron recieving a hard shot by Flair. Prototype then
went for the schoolboy but only gained a two count.
The match continued as Prototype attacked the damaged
knee of Flair. Bolin distracted the referee as Prototype
took Flair outside ramming his knee into the outer post.
The match came to an end as it appeared Flair would
gain the victory over the downed Prototype, but Kenny
Bolin ran in with his BS case. Flair turned around in
time and grabbed the case hitting Bolin with it. Flair
still holding the case in the ring was contemplating
hitting Prototype but did not, only because Sean O'Haire
stormed the ring and layed David out. Eventually "The
Demon of the Deep" Leviathan stormed the ring clearing
all of Bolin Services. Bolin delivered a hard case shot
to the "Demon's" back, but to no prevail as it did not
effect him. Eventually Leviathan layed out Bolin and
Powerbombed Senior Official Robert Brisko as the
cameras went off the air concluding another great week
of Ohio Valley Wrestling.
-Winner via DQ David Flair. Prototype still champion.
