Notes: Anarchy Championship Wrestling presented "Pick Your Poison" Sunday night with a action packed show of nine matches starting at an earlier time and running close to 3 1/2 hours at the Venue at 800 Lexington. All future Sunday shows at the Venue will start at 5 PM to allow for the longer shows.

The first match was a first round tournament match for the new "Young Guns" Under 30 title. ACW favorite Berry Breeze faced the rookie sensation Julio Garza. Fans were thrilled when Breeze hit his finisher "The Cherry Popper" and scored his first victory in ACW.

Although Daffney Unger was unable to make it to the show, her scheduled opponents Rachel Summerlyn and Miss Diss_Lexia competed in one of the hardest hitting matches in recent memory. The two women beat each other mercilessly until Rachel hit a DDT for the pin.

No ACW show would be complete without at least one elimination match. On this night, 4 wrestlers competed in an elimination scramble match. Bart McClintock was first eliminated when he tapped out to a submission hold applied by Austin Riley. Next Riley pinned The High Flying Pepper Rodriguez. Riley was unable to finish the match with a victory when Problems scored the winning pinfall.

The next match was yet another Young Guns Tournament first round match. "Showcase" Shance Williams faced "The Lone Star Kid" Ricky Rhodes who was accompanied to the ring by "The Beast from Bourbon Street" Gator. Gator's presence ringside did not prove to be helpful however as Williams rolled up Rhodes for the pin after Gator inadvertently hit Rhodes with his cue.

The fifth match has a distinctly Lucha Libre feel to it as two men from El Paso faced off. The world's largest cruiserweight, Massive faced Nathan Sin who made his ACW debut. Although Nathan put up a valiant effort, Massive hit two consecutive inverted power bombs and the match was over.

The next match was originally set to be a tag team match as Supreme Clientelle (Shawn Vexx and "Hotsauce" Marco Riviera) squared off with Double Trouble (Tony Vega & Chris James.) When the Tag Team Champions Kissyboots (Skylar Skelly & Rachel Summerlyn) came ringside and offered to make this a 3-way Tag Team Title Match, one more team came out. The Sexy Fox-a-Dellics (Mike Dell & Rory Fox) had been promised the freedom to participate in any match they desired, excluding the Chris Hero match. Fox & Dell interjected themselves into the title match, making this into a 4-way elimination match. Despite his impending surgery, Skelly showed flashes of his in ring skill throughout the match. All four teams demonstrated solid work during the match, but it was Supreme Clientele first eliminated when Vega pinned Vexx. next, Double Trouble was eliminated when Chris James was pinned by Mike Dell. Quickly, Dell & Fox seized the advantage and scored double pins on Kissyboots, and as quick as that, new Tag Team Champions were crowned.

The next match saw "Solid Gold" Gregory Symonds face "Showtime" Scot Summers. This was a bloody and violent match which elicited a "This is Awesome" chant from the crowd. Although Symonds lost the match to a rear naked choke, he won the respect of the fans with the incredible effort.

In the feature match, Chris Hero came to the ring to a resounding applause, but the crowd absolutely erupted when his opponent appeared from the lockerroom. Masada came to the ring accompanied by Mr. Yebisu. The match started out as a technical display, granted a hard hitting, strong style display, but technical wrestling nonetheless. When the action spilled out of the ring, the pair took it to the next level. Nineteen minutes into the match both men had their shoulders pinned to the mat for a three count and the ref declared a "no contest." Fans chanted "five more minutes," and both Masada and Hero agreed to continue the match. The Venue could not contain the action that ensued as the two men battled up and down the stairs to the balcony and then out the front doors to the street. As the crowd spilled out to watch, Hero and Masada battled in the street. Hero actually climbed atop the equipment trailer, diving onto Masada below. Then the pair wrestled onto the flatbed trailer. Next the action returned into the Venue and back into the ring. When time ran out on the match, the crowd exalted the wrestlers and cheered the incredible match they had been given. Chris Hero addressed the crowd, thanking them for the support and reminding them that both he and Masada would be back in ACW on August 19th for the IWA-MS and IWA-Texas co-promoted "Remember the Butcher" Show.

The final match of the evening was a "Four Corners of Pain" match. Originally, ACW hardcore champion Skylar Skelly was scheduled to face Darin Childs, but Skelly was forced to withdraw form the match due to scheduled surgery for his oft dislocated shoulder. Skelly instead was reduced to the roll of spectator as Childs faced "The Xtreme Bulldawg" Rexx Reed. Childs and Reed fought in a match involving barb wire, thumbtacks, broken bottles and a log cabin of light tubes. Naturally this was a bloody, violent match which appeared over when Reed scored the pin following a Death Valley Driver into the broken bottles, but Reed wasn't finished. Reed seemed committed to doing permanent damage to Childs as he attempted to grind a broken bottle into Childs' eyes. Childs' former partner Jacob Ladder rushed to the ring to rescue Childs. Reed and Ladder brawled outside the ring for several minutes and nothing seemed to deter Reeds violence as Skylar Skelly, Rachel Summerlyn, Mike Knoxville and the fans pleaded with him to stop. When Childs recovered enough to rejoin the fray, he repaid Reed by hitting a Death Valley Driver of his own into the broken glass. Skelly directed Ladder to cover the fallen Reed and demanded that referee Mike Knoxville count the pin. Afterwards, Skelly presented the "retired" Jacob Ladder with the ACW Hardcore Title Belt.

IWA-Texas: Anarchy Championship Wrestling returns to the Venue in one week on August 5th with "Distrust, Dismay and Anti-Social Behavior." Check out www.anarchychampionshipwrestling.com for details on this and other ACW shows.
