Tykade retained the NZWPW Championship despite Adam Avalanche’s best efforts in the main event  of Bringing Down the House last night when the champ caught Avalanche with a small package after Adam gave Tykade a Wave of the Avalanche.

Tyakde backed Adam Avalanche into the corner after the two locked up at the start of the match, but Avalanche was not looking for a clean break as he slapped the champ across the face. Tykade shrugged it off, but another lock-up and another slap brought out an aggressive side in Tykade, who gave Avalanche a slap of his own when Avalanche missed a splash in the corner, and scaled the turnbuckles to hit Adam ten times in the face.

Avalanche tried to regroup outside the ring but Tykade gave chase and smashed the mountain of a man into the apron before rolling him back into the ring, where Avalanche stopped Tykade’s momentum with a double-axe-handle smash and locked the champ in a camel clutch.

With the crowd behind him, Tykade struggled back to his feet and staggered to the corner, where Avalanche ploughed into him with a huge shoulder tackle. Adam tried to tie Tykade up in another submission, but the NZWPW Champion was ready for him and planted the big man with a DDT, leaving both competitors down on the mat.

Referee Misty began to count both men down, but they were back to their feet by a count of six, in time for Tykade to hammer Avalanche with a huge clothesline and cover him for a near fall.

Feeling momentum on his side now, Tykade looked to pick Avalanche up for the Game Over but was unable to lift the mountain of a man. Avalanche took advantage of Tykade’s temporarily strained back to nail him with the Wave of the Avalanche. However, Adam spent too much time bragging to the crowd, and when he finally covered Tykade the champ had had enough time to recover and kicked out at two.

Avalanche looked to submit Tykade to the Wave Tamer, but was quickly bundled into a small package before he could lock in the hold, and only just managed to kick out before the three. Frustrated now, Avalanche picked Tykade up and hit him with another Wave of the Avalanche, but once again let the NZWPW fans distract him and waited to long to attempt to pin Tykade.

As Avalanche refocussed his attention on Tykade, the NZWPW Champion sprung into action and compacted Avalanche into a small package pin, which proved to be just enough for Tyakde to earn the three count and hold on to his NZWPW Championship.

NZWPW Bringing Down the House Results:

• The Nerd def. Thor w/ Stellar Hammer
  Stellar Hammer tried to get involved in the match, swinging her hammer wildly at The Nerd. Nerd was able to use his brain and duck out of the way at the last second though, leaving Stellar to blast Thor with the hammer instead before rolling him up for a quick pin.
  
  
• Axl def. GI Jay
  GI Jay looked as though he could match Axl when it came to strength, but Axl still had the edge in experience and caught Jay with his patented Atomic Spinebuster for the win. Adam Avalanche appeared post-match to congratulate GI Jay for putting up a fight, but soon gave him a Wave of the Avalanche to send a message to NZWPW Champion Tykade, Avalanche’s opponent in the main event of the night.
  
  
• Misty def. Rose Caprice
  Rose appeared to have the edge when it came to speed, but a big boot from Misty stopped the younger Caprice sister in her tracks. A leg drop ensured Rose wasn’t getting up in a hurry, and Misty finished things off with the Misty Makeover. As Rose made her way to the back, Project Mayhem - who had been watching the match from ringside - suggested she might do better next time if she had some back-up.
  
  
• NZWPW Tag Team Championships:
  The Five Star Revolution (c) def. The Party Seekerz
  JC Star hit Kid Caprice with the Starstruck Superkick as Travis Banks forced Mikey Rave to tap out to the Lion’s Clutch, allowing The Five Star Revolution to retain their NZWPW Tag Team Championships.
  
  
• D-Hoya def. Chad Howard
  Chad Howard antagonised D-Hoya, who had been watching Bringing Down the House from the crowd, as he came to the ring ready for his open challenge, only for Hoya to answer and take Howard to the limit while still dressed in his street clothes. Chad tried to re-injure D-Hoya’s knee in the former six-time NZWPW Champion’s first match in months, but D-Hoya persevered and eventually nailed Howard with the Eclipse for the win. Chad proved to be a sore loser though and took out D-Hoya’s knee after the bell had sounded, leaving Hoya unable to get back to his feet. Chad then vowed to restore New Zealand wrestling to the glory days of the 1980s, claiming he was NZ’s “last hope”.
  
  
• Rufguts def. Johnny Idol
  In a grudge match of sorts, after Idol’s upset handicap victory over Chad Howard and Rufguts at Tour of the Titans, Rufguts wasted little time in taking Johnny Idol apart. Idol was shockingly able to lift Rufguts onto his shoulders for the Idoliser, but the former NZWPW Champion kicked out and smashed Idol into the mat with the Rufdriver before submitting him in a rear naked choke.
  
  
• NZWPW Championship:
  Tykade (c) def. Adam Avalanche
  Adam Avalanche drilled Tyakde into the mat with a Wave of the Avalanche, but wasted too much time in going for a cover. When Adam eventually tried to pin the NZWPW Champion, Tykade bundled Avalanche into a small package for the three count to retain his NZWPW Championship.
