ICW Lethal Lottery 2011 Recap Video!
November 14th, 2011


ICW Lethal Lottery 2011 Results!
October 23rd, 2011

A new faction formed in ICW at Lethal Lottery. Their name is the Syndicate, lead by Barrington Hughes (formerly $tack$). The members include former ICW Women's Champion Calypso and newcomer MDK.

ERA and Joker almost went at it in the ring before the first match even took place. The fans and the wrestlers alike were awaiting the culmination of the feud between the two in the Main Event Ladder Match.

First Match was for the ICW United States Tag Team Championship. TECH Squad came out first and awaited to find out who their opponents would be. Rusty Brooks drew the names. He drew Sean Phoenix. Sean Phoenix picked Flex Magnum to be his partner. Then Rusty Brooks drew the stipulation for the match. He drew Fatal Four Way Elimination Tag Team Match. Rusty then drew another wrestler’s name. He drew Skorpio who asked for Teddy Khan to be his partner. Then K5's name was drawn and the members picked Daniel Modem and Andrew D. Dawson to compete.

Skorpio and Teddy Khan were eliminated first. After some aerial acrobatics from Phoenix and Magnum they were eliminated. Then it was down to the champions TECH Squad and the team of Daniel Modem and A.D.D. After a low blow from A.D.D. to TC Read of TECH Squad and a hand full of tights ICW crowned new United States Tag Team Champions! Modem and ADD are the new Champions.

Out next was Angel Rose. Rusty drew her opponent and Adrian MarX's name was picked. A One on One Match with a 20 Minute Time Limit was drawn. MarX scored the upset victory on Rose with the Curb Stomp and out came Shawn Prime. Prime got in the ring and started to kick Rose until Dash Maverick with Sledge Hammer in hand came out for the save. Prime high tailed out of the ring. Maverick and his ex-girlfriend Angel Rose embraced as Prime looked on. Angel Rose then backstabbed Maverick with a low blow and joined Shawn Prime. The feud between Prime and Maverick got even more personal.

Out next was Nacio Baron. Rusty drew Jordan Rayner's name. Then a first for ICW was drawn a Body Slam Contest. Rayner won the Body Slam Contest. After the match Barrington Hughes along with the Syndicate came out and offered what seemed to be Rayner a spot in the faction. Nacio attacked Rayner from behind then left the ring and told Hughes that he is in if Rayner is in. Baron left and the Syndicate followed.

K-Cling came out next with the new Tag Champs. K-Cling spoke about the concussion he received at the hands of J-Biggs. He is confused as to why there were no repercussions to Biggs. K-Cling spoke on how he has not been able to work for the last two months, how he wasn't able to wrestle at Road 2 Ruin but Biggs wasn't suspended for his actions. He was fired...no he became ICW Champion. K-Cling blamed Rusty Brooks for everything. He verbally attacked Rusty over and over until Rusty interrupted him. Rusty says you want to attack the Brooks name screw this drawing of names, you are taking on my Son the Prodigy J-Dawg Brooks right now. J-Dawg came out with the TECH Squad who ran Modem and ADD out of the ringside area to the locker room. Then Rusty did draw what stipulation and it was a No Count Out Match. Brooks and K-Cling fought all over the Polish American Club. The match finally made it back in the ring and K-Cling seemed to have the upper hand until he collapsed out of nowhere. J-Dawg didn’t know what to do, he looked towards his dad, then he looked at the referee, J-Dawg then went for the cover and K-Cling was out cold, J-Dawg scored the victory. J-Dawg was who was confused by what was going on, was then attacked by the tag champs. TECH Squad ran them out of the ring and helped J-Dawg up. Officials carried K-Cling to the back. No word on his condition as of yet.

The next match was the I Quit Match for both the ICW Hard Knocks and the FOW Hardcore Championship.  A devious Jack Zero and a fuming Dash Maverick made for a really exiting I Quit Match. Both stars brawled back and forth all over the P.A.C. using every weapon at their disposal, this included cupcakes and a Kermit the Frog Puppet. At one point Zero hand cuffed Dash Maverick to the turnbuckle and began wailing at his back with a Singapore cane. Dash’s brother Speedy had enough and stopped Jack. The two brawled all around the ring. Once Jack was back in the ring; Dash, who had been unlocked by security, hit his finisher out of nowhere. The match ended when Jack Zero finally uttered the words ”I QUIT”.

After the match Shawn Prime came out and told Dash Maverick that he has gone to the ICW Offices and the match has been put together. Shawn Prime VS Dash Maverick will finally take place. Prime then told him that there is one obstacle in the way of a Prime/Maverick match. He told him that before that match happens, at Challenge of Championship the new ICW Hard Knocks Champion Dash Maverick must take on his brother Speedy. Prime elaborated more and stated that if the two don’t compete at 100% then they would be fired. So there you have it, November 19th, Dash Maverick will take on Speedy in a Brother VS Brother, Fight or Fired Match for the ICW Hard Knocks Championship.

Immediately following this “Showtime” JB Cool made his to the ring to find out who his opponent was. Rusty drew the Army of Darkness. Rusty then said that Abudadein would pick which member would compete. The Snake Master picked Brian “The Beast” Brody. Rusty then picked the stipulation and Handicap Match was drawn. “Sycho” Sean Allen jumped on the apron and the match began. JB Cool had to fight two of the most evil men ICW has ever encountered. JB fought back but the two AOD members were too much for the seasoned pro, the constant outside interference from Abudadein didn’t help either. The referee called for a disqualification when all the members of the Army of Darkness jumped into the ring and simultaneously attacked “Showtime”.  Maxx Stardom who was sitting at ringside with his family watching the show started asking for someone to come from backstage and help. After about 15 seconds of him asking he got fed up and headed back stage, only to run back down the ramp with a chair in hand and clear the ring. Stardom made the save on JB Cool. Stardom then asked for a microphone. The retired Five Star Superstar said that forget about his retirement he is tired of the AOD’s constant attack on the ICW stars. Stardom told Allen and Brody that at Challenge of Champion he along with JB Cool are challenging them. Maxx Stardom & JB Cool VS Sean Allen & Brian Brody was announced for Challenge of Champions.

The following match was scheduled to be a Tag Team Match between the current ICW Champion J-Biggs along with his tag team partner and former champion Shawn Prime taking on two former champions Mykal Manix and VEGA.  But when Rusty drew the stipulation he drew Tag Team Turmoil Match and the partner had to switch sides. Rusty to J-Biggs he would be tagging with Mykal Manix to take on Shawn Prime and VEGA. This 21 minute match was a brutal slugfest that saw the two best friends who were former enemies once again become enemies. All four men hit everything in their arsenals to try and capture the victory. Mykal Manix and Biggs worked together for the first time in history even hitting a new tag team variation of the Face Wash. There are no words to describe the brutality of this match. In the end J-Biggs hit the Emerald Flowsion Driver on his former partner, Shawn Prime, to score the pinfall win.

Now it was time for the Main Event. The Second Ever Ladder Match in ICW’s history. A heated rivalry that has spanned over 5 years finally would come to a rest as the ICW Pure X Crown Championship hung high above the ICW ring to see Ernest R. Alexander III take on Joker. This was the most intense match many in attendance had ever seen. These two men looked like they were out to kill each other. This ladder match quickly became a T.L.C. match as the fans as tables and chairs came into the mix. Both men would climb up the ladder and attempt to recover the championship but the other would stop him dead in his tracks over and over again. Both competitors would get up from things that would kill mere mortals. ERA and Joker set the new standard for ICW in their Match of the Year Match. In the end Joker finally had ERA down and the Pure X Crown Championship was finally in his sights, when out of nowhere came Jack Zero who clocked him in the back with a chair. Jack then helped ERA. Jack and ERA had formed some type of alliance and Joker was about to get screwed again, when ERA was hit with a Double Knee Arabian Facebuster by Zero. Jack looked around and climbed the ladder to the top. Jack Zero unstrapped the Pure X Crown Championship from the hook to win the match!? Jack Zero who wasn’t even in the match climbed up the ladder to capture the Pure X Crown Championship.  The Senior Official of ICW Bruce Michaels (Owens) raised Zero’s hand in the end to make it official.

After the match the whole locker rooms got in the ring to bid farewell to Ernest R. Alexander III who will be taking a long break from wrestling.

Lethal Lottery saw the crowning of new United States Tag Team Champions, new Hard Knocks Champion, and new Pure X Crown Champion, an unholy union between Shawn Prime and Dash Maverick’s ex-girlfriend Angel Rose, the formation of the Syndicate, the return of a Five Star Superstar, the breakup of a former tag team champions, and the end to one of the most promising careers in ICW’s history.


Reinstatement of the Army of Darkness!
October 7th, 2011

After meeting with lawyers the ICW Offices have no choice but to allow the Army of Darkness back into ICW. “Snakemaster” Abudadein, Blackhart, “Sycho” Sean Allen, and Brian “The Beast” Brody are now contracted ICW performers and must be used on all future ICW programs according to the contract that Sean Allen signed Army of Darkness in.


Lethal Lottery: A Little Different Than the Ordinary!
October 7th, 2011

For those of you new to ICW, Lethal Lottery is a once in a year event where anything can truly happen in ICW. In years past only a wrestler’s opponent was chosen at random, this year, not only will that happen, but the stipulation of every match will be chosen at random. Anything can and anything will happen at ICW’s most unpredictable event on the year.

The only two matches that will not be Lethal Lottery rules match are the two matches that have already been booked with Stipulations.

  1. Ernest R. Alexnader III (Champion) VS Joker (Ladder Match for the ICW Pure X Crown Championship )
  2. Jack Zero (ICW Hard Knocks Champion) VS Dash Maverick (FOW Hardcore Champion) (I Quit Match for both the ICW Hard Knocks & the FOW Hardcore Championships)

A Ladder Match Culminates a Lifelong Feud!
October 7th, 2011

Joker VS ERA is a feud that has been talked about for years within ICW. Both wrestlers grew up together, trained together, began their wrestling career simultaneously, but one comes from a dysfunctional institutionalized family while the other comes from wealth and prosperity. This feud began as a friendly competition at Soulman Alex G’s Wrestling School to see who could out do the other. Joker got his break first coming to ICW and gaining the now defunct ICW Hardcore Title within a matter of months. Ernest R. Alexander, then known as Lil’ E, joined ICW and competed for the now defunct Light Heavyweight Championship, but would eventually capture the Hardcore Title and in the process rename himself. Joker, after receiving a few shots against the ICW Champions, went after and captured the ICW Pure X Crown Championship. ERA, not to be outdone, captured the Pure X Crown Championship as well. The two finally had their first Pro Wrestling match against one another at D$W, but the match ended due to interference. The two had their rematch at ICW the following month in a Last Man Standing Match; Joker went on to be victorious in the match.

Early in the year of 2008 Joker tore his ACL and was out for almost 10 months. Ernest R. Alexander III went on to capture the ICW Championship, in what many call the most shocking victory of 2008, while Joker is out injured.

Joker made his return to ICW on January of 2009 winning the Battle Rumble and garnering an opportunity to face the ICW Champion ERA at the next event. ERA walked out of ICW as Champion, claiming that he didn’t want to face Joker, that Joker had become a mad man, and that it was an unsafe working environment. A Tournament was held to crown a new champion, which Joker emerged victorious. 

E.R.A. returned to ICW on May of 2009, the ICW Offices made the match between the two for Critical Condition 2009 and Joker defeated ERA to retain the Championship. E.R.A. once again left ICW angry about the loss against his rival. He came back a few months later and after back-to-back losses snapped during a match involving J-Dawg Brooks and VEGA; that same event Joker lost his ICW Championship to Shawn Prime.

On January of 2010 ERA defeated J-Dawg for the ICW Pure X Crown Championship. Both Joker and ERA would cross paths once again at Tag Team Turmoil 2010, this time though, they were tag team partners. While they won their match, after it was over they both went at it again. In the battle royal main event, because they were both distracted, Brian Brody snuck up and launched them both over the top rope.

On May 8th, 2010 ICW crossed the county line and headed to Davie, FL for "Crossing the Line…Again". ERA being the ICW Pure X Crown Champion and Joker having just won the ICW Championship the week before; the ICW Offices decided it was time to end this rivalry and have a Champion VS Champion match. Joker won the match and both men moved on to other feuds.

By the end of 2010 Joker re-injured his ACL and was out of action; ERA had established himself as one of the top stars in ICW again.

In early 2011 the Pure X Crown Championship was stripped from champion Maxx Stardom. A tournament was held to crown a new Champion. Joker returned at Brink of Insanity defeating Jack Zero.

The night the Finals of the PXC Tournament were held; Joker opened the show signing autographs, until a fan attacked him hitting him with a Superkick. That fan was none other than ERA in disguise and managed by Bobby Rogers. Rogers and ERA handcuffed Joker and dragged him backstage. Ernest R. Alexander III went on to win the Tournament and become the NEW Pure X Crown Champion defeating Angel Rose and Joker in the finals. The rivalry between ERA and Joker had restarted this time adding Angel Rose into the mix.

Joker challenged ERA for the PXC Championship the following months, but was defeated once again thanks to outside interference from Bobby Rogers.

On July 30th ICW held Tag Team Turmoil and this time Joker and ERA were paired up again and like the previous year won their tag team match and were eliminated simultaneously from the Battle Royal Main Event due to them paying more attention to each other than the task of winning the match.

ICW performed at F.A.M.E. the following week and a Tables Match between both competitors was announced. Joker gave ERA a Spinebuster through the Table but the referee was knocked out and didn’t see it. Bobby Rogers came into the ring and knocked out Joker. Joker was dragged by ERA to the broken table, when the referee awoke Joker was lying through the table and ERA was announced as still the ICW Pure X Crown Champion.

A Fatal Four Way Match for ERA’s Championship opened the 3rd Annual Summer Brawl. ERA would defend against Joker, Angel Rose, and the man who later that night would become ICW Champion, VEGA. ERA once again scored the upset and retained the ICW Pure X Crown Championship.

After Summer Brawl it was time for Road 2 Ruin 2011. Every year at Road to Ruin ICW puts the ICW Pure X Crown Championship on the line in a Bull in the Ring 6 Person Elimination Match. This year was no different. ERA would have to defend the championship against Angel Rose, Macho Mark, and former ICW Champions Shawn Prime, Jordan Rayner, and his most hated rival Joker. ERA won the match but only after controversial actions on the referee’s part. Joker made ERA tap out but the original referee was knocked out, a second referee saw the ERA submitting, and declared Joker the winner and new champion. When the first referee got back up, he reversed the decision, disqualifying Joker and declaring ERA still the ICW Pure X Crown Champion. ERA scored the most eliminations ever on any Bull in the Ring by eliminating Macho Mark, Angel Rose, Joker, and took part in Jordan Rayner’s dog pile elimination.

The ICW Offices decided that there is only one way for the feud to end and that is to suspend the ICW Pure X Crown Championship from atop the Polish American Club and have these two men compete in ICW’s 2nd ever Ladder Match. This will be a culmination of a lifelong rivalry between two former friends that have become hated enemies. The ICW fans and wrestlers alike will be at the edge of their seats awaiting to see who will come out on top of this once in a life time feud’s finale.


J-Biggs Captures the ICW Championship!

J-Biggs ICW Champion

J-Biggs defeated VEGA & Mykal Manix during a Three Way Dance to capture the ICW Championship.


ICW Road 2 Ruin 2011 Results!
September 25th, 2011

Before the Bell: The FOW Hardcore Championship was on the line in a Hardcore Match between Champion Dash Maverick and challenger Adrian MarX in an Empty Venue Match. The two battled all over the Polish American Club (PAC) hitting each other with anything they could find. Once the two men brawled to the backstage area, Dash Maverick was almost attacked by the whole locker room. The FOW Hardcore Champion is defended in 24/7 rules. As long as there is a referee the belt could be defended anywhere at any time. When the ICW Stars realized that the belt was up for grabs everyone went after Dash Maverick, as Dash backed up he was rolled up by Jack Zero, who wasn’t even part of the match, and pinned for the 3 count to capture the FOW Hardcore Championship. Zero headed out of the locker room area into the inside area of the PAC where he took a few photos with the FOW Championship, when the locker room cleared to go after him. Zero left the PAC only to come back later for his match with Teddy Khan.

Richard Tingle began to welcome all the ICW fans to Road 2 Ruin when all of a sudden a fan jumped into the ring asking for a match. Tingle told him first thing’s first you need to get yourself a trainer, then you need to get some gear, and pay your dues before you get a match. The fan didn’t want to have any of that. Tingle said ok, you want a match you got one. Newcomer MDK came out and totally destroyed him, until ICW Champion VEGA interrupted the match by spearing MDK. The match ended in a No contest.

VEGA began talking about his Championship reign and how he will be the best Champion ICW’s ever had. That brought out Mykal Manix, the former champion. The crowd was completely with Manix. The match was set; the Main Event would be VEGA defending the ICW Championship against Mykal Manix.

At 7:30 ICW was ready to be on its way and as per request of the fans we held a Tribute to the Troops. We started the night’s festivities with a “Presentation of Colors” from the Miami Senior High School JROTC Color Guard along with EVA singing “the Star Spangled Banner”.

Skorpio came out along with Dash Maverick to talk to the ICW fans. Both stars asked for Rusty Brooks to come to the ring. Rusty was prepared to talk about the next event Lethal Lottery that takes place on October 22nd, when all of a sudden Skorpio and Dash asked for all the performers whom Rusty had some hand in training to come to the ringside area. Needless to say, everyone in the locker room went out to the ring. Dash Maverick then presented Rusty Brooks with the first ever ICW Championship Ring as an appreciation from all the ICW stars for his training and guidance for the last few years. A “Thank You Rusty” chant broke out as everyone cleared the ring and we got ready for Road 2 Ruin 2011.

The Opening Match was a Triple Threat Match for the FOW Championship. The match was scheduled to be Tommy Vandal defending his Championship against Dash Maverick and Tommy’s brother Johnny Vandal; Johnny decided that the ICW fans weren’t worth performing in front of. Fabulous Frank and Seth Gregg from FOW decided they could intrude in the start of the match and announce a new third participant, that third participant was former WWE Star “Dirty’ Dennis Allen. The match got on its way with each of the three men having an upper hand. The end of the match saw an unexpected return from a former ICW Champion. As Dash Maverick hit his “Danger Zone Elbow Drop” and seemed to have the match won, out of nowhere came Shawn Prime with a chair in his hand. Prime clocked Dash over the head with a chair and left the ring before anyone could blink. Dennis Allen stood up, saw what was happening and as he went for the cover, Tommy Vandal rolled him up for the Three Count to retain the FOW Championship.

After the match Shawn Prime continued the attack on Dash Maverick leaving him incapacitated.

Recently retired star Maxx Stardom came out to thank the ICW fans for their understanding in his decision to retire and thanking them for their support. Stardom then joined Richard Tingle and Bobby Rogers at ringside for commentary.

The second match saw The TradeMarX defeated the team of Flex Magnum & Sean Phoenix.

J-Dawg Brooks VS Nacio Baron managed by $tack$ was next. J-Dawg and Nacio brawled back and forth leading to J-Dawg hooking his submission hold on Nacio Baron. Nacio didn’t want to tap. $tack$ was about to interfere and break up the move, when an unknown masked wrestler came in and pulled $tack$ from the apron. $tack$ then seemingly inadvertently threw a white towel into the ring. The referee saw it and declared J-Dawg Brooks the winner via Submission.

J-Dawg Brooks along with his father Rusty Brooks and this new unknown masked star stood in the ring holding up each other’s arms in victory.

The new comer’s match between “Sycho” Sean Allen and JB Cool ended in a No Contest after interference from the Army of Darkness’ Abudadein, Brian “the Beast” Brody, and Niedaduba. Brody attacked JB Cool as Sean Allen held off Abudadein and Niedaduba. Maxx Stardom was going crazy at the commentator’s booth as ICW Director of Authority Skorpio made his way to ringside. Skorpio demanded that the Army of Darkness stop. As soon as that was said Sean Allen turned around and attacked JB Cool from behind. Skorpio was livid at what was going on. Skorpio told them to get out of the PAC or they would be escorted out by the police. Sean Allen took Skorpio’s microphone away and said, “maybe you should pay closer attention to my contract as I signed it ‘Army of Darkness’ not ‘Sean Allen’, the Army of Darkness is back and there is nothing you can do about it.” Stardom took his headset off and began to make his way into the ring. Skorpio went to stop him, but Stardom just pushed him out of the way and tried to jump into the ring, but he was stopped by security. Security hauled Stardom out of the venue as Sean Allen and the new Army of Darkness began to leave to the backstage area. Skorpio stopped them and said, “I will check with my lawyers, but for the time being if you are part of ICW, then Beast you will have a match tonight, actually stay in the ring, as here comes your opponent…J-Biggs.

J-Biggs defeated Brian Brody with the Broken Neck 2004 in what was said to be the best ICW match of 2011 by some of the fans.

The United States Tag Team Championship was on the line in the next match as the TECH Squad defeated K5’s Daniel Modem and Andrew D. Dawson.

The 6 Person Bull in the Ring Elimination Match for the ICW Pure X Crown Championship was next but due to Dash Maverick being attacked earlier in the night, paramedics would not allow him to compete in the match and was replaced by Shawn Prime. The match was now ICW Pure X Crown Champion Ernest R. Alexander III VS Shawn Prime VS Angel Rose VS Jordan Rayner VS Skorpio VS Joker. E.R.A.  and Skorpio started it off, but right off the bat there was an injury to the Heat Magnet. Skorpio’s previously injured arm gave out on him. Skorpio screaming in pain asked for a substitution to be made as he could not compete, Skorpio said that luckily ERA’s old high school friend was backstage and could take his place. Out came the Rainbow Express' Macho Mark. Once Mark was in the ring everyone in the match gunned for the biggest person in there, Jordan Rayner. Finisher after finisher from all participants finally took the big man down. Everyone in the match piled on top of Rayner for the pin. Jordan Rayner was eliminated. ERA then super kicked Macho Mark out of the match. Shawn Prime and Angel Rose went at it next; Prime began to decimate Rose. He continued to beat her down, until the man he attacked earlier and Rose’s ex-boyfriend Dash Maverick came out with Sledge Hammer in hand. Security stopped Maverick before he could even come down the ramp, but it was enough for Prime to get distracted and Rose to roll him up for the pin. Angel Rose was the next one out as her chin met ERA’s boot. It was down to the heated rivals the Champion ERA and the Challenger Joker. They went toe to toe until Joker finally hit ERA with the Frog Splash. There was no referee as a few moments before Joker had unintentionally hit Senior Referee Bruce Michaels. Referee Fernando Jimenez ran down as Joker hooked ERA into a submission. ERA tapped out and Joker was victorious.

Well, that was until Senior Referee Bruce Michaels got up and disqualified Joker for hitting him. The decision was reversed and Ernest R. Alexander III was still ICW Pure X Crown Champion. After the match the ICW offices decided that the feud between Joker and E.R.A. needs to come to an end. So it has been announced that at Lethal Lottery 2011 Ernest R. Alexander III will defend the ICW Pure X Crown Championship against Joker in a Ladder Match!

From a controversial finish we go to a controversial Champion. Jack Zero defends both the ICW Hard Knocks and FOW Hardcore Championships against “the South Beach Sensation” Teddy Khan. Zero and Khan brawled all over the PAC using everything at their disposal including a Shop Vac. Zero scored the victory and retained his Championships. After the match as Jack Zero is celebrating up the ramp, he gets blindsided by a sledge hammer hit from Dash Maverick. Dash covers Zero, the referee makes the count, and Dash regains the FOW Hardcore Championship thanks to the 24/7 rule. Dash then challenges Jack Zero to an I Quit Match at Lethal Lottery for the ICW Hard Knocks Championship.

The Main Event for the ICW Championship was next as the new reigning champion VEGA defends against the former champion Mykal Manix. This match was back and forth until J-Biggs’ music hit and out came the Progressional #1 Contender. J-Biggs told the ring announcer to make this match a Triple Threat Match as he was cashing in the #1 Contendership. The Triple Threat Match began at the referees ringing on the bell and it was all power moves from the three men. The three men gave it their all and it looked to be over when Mykal Manix hit the Package Piledriver on VEGA, but before Manix could go for the cover, J-Biggs hit him with a massive clothesline almost decapitating the former ICW Champion. J-Biggs covered VEGA to become the new ICW Champion and write his name into the annals of ICW, now as a two time ICW Champion.

J-Biggs is the NEW ICW Champion!

A Feud for the Ages by Jimmy Rivers!
June 20th, 2011

Recently in ICW a feud has been brewing. Some newer fans might think that this is a new development, but in actuality, the relationship between Dash Maverick and Shawn Prime goes way back to ICW’s humble beginnings.

Prime has, for what seems like no reason at all, struck a chord with Maverick. Challenging him, goading him, and threatening Maverick’s family. Prime is resistant to engage Maverick himself, but has continuously attacked Dash’s brother, Speedy, the ICW photographer. I’ve seen feuds in the past involve family members, but Speedy is just a photographer. He never involved himself in the show. Whatever could be motivating Prime and why he’s chosen to attack Maverick indirectly, only he knows. What could Prime’s ultimate plan be for Maverick?

The feud and the bullying has crossed over into other professional wrestling companies as well. Future of Wrestling and L.I.V.E. Pro Wrestling have both seen glimpses of this feud. At F.O.W. Prime went so far as to cost Maverick what was seemingly a secured victory for the ICW Title.

All in all this is an event that the fans are seeing unfold right before their eyes. Who knows how far this feud will go. From what we’ve seen, I wouldn’t be surprised if this all ended with one man having to leave the business for good.

From under the black hat,

Jimmy Rivers
