Tykade made an impact this past Saturday at NZWPW Over the Top, entering the Royal Rumble at #19 and eliminating four men to earn an NZWPW Championship match at Power Play VII in June!

JC Star and “The Ideal Experience” Corey Dallas began the Rumble, briefly teaming together to eliminate the third entrant, The Macho Man. Their alliance was short lived though as entry #4, “Shining” Nick Silver formed a new alliance with Dallas and the two drove JC Star into the mat with a double suplex.

NZWPW veteran Disturbed and The Nerd were the next men to enter the match, while SNS hit the Silver Lining on the Ideal Experience, brining their partnership to an end. Chad Howard was out next, and quickly aligned himself with his tag team partner, The Nerd, to eliminate Silver.

The second week of WWE NXT continued the development of the relationships, some good some not so, between the rookies and their mentors.  Daniel Bryan’s troubles continue with Chris Jericho while Darren Young looked to prove to CM Punk that he was worthy of the Straightedge Saviour’s mentoring; and the rules are set out for how the winner of the season will be decided.

WWE Superstars brought four action-packed encounters with Kofi Kingston taking on Chavo Guerrero in the opening match followed by William Regal going head-to-head with the high-flyer Evan Bourne.  And from SmackDown the Big Red Monster Kane faced burly brawler Mike Knox while Goldust wrestled his first match for his new show against the World Heavyweight Champion Chris Jericho!

Check back with NZPWI tomorrow for a more comprehensive recap of NZWPW Over the Top.

Red Dragon pulled out all the stops on his quest to become the first-ever SCW Champion this past Saturday at Southern Showdown, eventually claiming the title following a top rope legdrop to his opponent, Night Stalker.

Night Stalker slipped up at the start of the match, turning his attention to the SCW fans instead of his Red Dragon. As such, a big shoulder block from Dragon took him off his feet and left him prone on the mat for Dragon’s Reign of Fire splashes.

Red Dragon was unable to pin Night Stalker though, so sent him spilling through the ropes with a Dragon-tail Dropkick!

This brief breather allowed Night Stalker to get his head back in the game, and after forcing Red Dragon to chase him back into the ring, Night Stalker took control of the match with some stomps before twisting Dragon’s arms around the ropes.

Last week Shawn Michaels accepted Undertaker’s stipulation that their WrestleMania rematch would put the Heart Break Kid’s career on the line against The Deadman’s streak.  The implications of this decision started to sink in for Michaels this week on RAW, just as the Road To WrestleMania began to open up for Vince McMahon and Bret “The Hitman” Hart!
