Review of the Show:
Opening: After the opening video, the show starts out with Joey Styles welcoming us to the first ever edition of MLW Underground TV as La Parka makes his way to the ring of our first match up.
First Match: La Parka vs. Jerry Lynn
"The Extreme Chairman" La Parka sits on his infamous lWo steal chair wearing a Mexican outfit and a sombrero as he awaits the arrival of Jerry Lynn. When Jerry Lynn enters he gets a great reaction from the Philadelphia crowd. La Parka wants to start out with the steel chair in hand but the referee makes him place it into the corner. The two competitors lock up; La Parka hits a knee to the gut to break it and follows with a chop to the chest, and hits a suplex early on in this match to take control of the match.
Break for a TWC Promo
When we return to the action, La Parka appears still in control but not for long as Jerry Lynn counters with a snapmare, and a variation of the international follows ending with Lynn hitting a tilt-a-whirl headscissors. Jerry then makes the mistake of allowing La Parka to get to his feet, and almost pays for it when La Parka charges for him, but luckily for Lynn he avoids La Parka as he goes charging into the steel ring post and falls to the outside. Jerry Lynn then climbs to the top rope and launches himself onto a clearly dazing standing La Parka and sends him crashing to the concrete floor of Viking Hall. Jerry gets back into the ring and it looks like La Parka will be counted out, but Lynn doesn't want the match to end that way and slides out of the ring, but La Parka was simply playing possum and gets into the ring, Jerry follows and gets stomped on for his trouble. Later La Parka returns the favour as Jerry Lynn finds himself on the end of an over the top rope plancha to the outside soon after. Jerry is picked up and has his face drilled into the ring post and is rolled back into the ring. La Parka then goes for the ever risky top rope maneuver and missing. Jerry Lynn gets a burst of energy and quickly hits La Parka with the spinning tornado DDT to pick up the win.
Winner: Jerry Lynn
Rating: 4 / 5
Comments: Great Match, but not the best I've seen from either man in the ring.
Promo 1: Fuego Guerrero
Talks about his finishing move; Zero Gravity, and vows that no-one will ever kick out of it. He states that Ikuto Hidaka will feel the pain of his move, when they meet in the ring.
Promo 2: Taiyo Kea
About a 10 second promo in which he promises to kick the Wall's ass.
Promo 3: Joey Styles
Hypes up the next show.
Ad Break
When we come back, Malice is already in the ring as Taiyo makes his way to the ring for the second match of the evening.
Second Match: Jerry "Malice" Tuite vs. Taiyo Kea
From the lock-up Malice tries to back Kea into the corner but he responds with a series of hard chops, the lock-up again and Taiyo is whipped into the ropes and is literally just chucked into the air by Malice, Kea quickly recovers only to me hit by a clothesline and hit the mat yet again. From the there the action goes outside, with both men exchanging blows before Malice overpowers Kea and hits his head of the apron and rolls him back into the ring. Malice whips Taiyo of the rope yet again and hits a double thrust, goes for the cover and gets a 2 count. He stomps Kea and Taiyo hits a Dragon Screw. Malice quickly regains control and ends up hitting a suplex on Kea but he kicks out at 2. Malice whips him into the ropes and hits a spinebuster for another near fall. He then sets Kea up for the powerbomb but it is reversed into a 'rana. Taiyo hits a swift jumping enzuigiri and follows with a northern lights suplex for the 1, 2, and 3!
Winner: Taiyo Kea
Rating: 1 ½ /5
Comments: Shit. Malice has got to be one of the worst wrestlers I have ever seen. Kea tried to make the best out of a bad situation but to no avail.
Promo 4: Steve Corino
Talks a bit about his victory at King of Kings. Cuts on Terry Funk and challenges him to a one on one match and vows to end his career for good and prove that he is better than Funk ever was.
Promo 5: Joey Styles
Talks about the GGTC Tag Team Title Tournament.
Christopher Daniels comes out followed by his opponent Vamprio of our next bout.
Third Match: Christopher Daniels vs. Vamprio
Ding! Ding! Ding! The bell rings as the 2 men circle each other, they jockey for position into the corner and the referee separates them. Vampiro holds up his hand indicating a test of strength but tricks Daniels and goes to work on the arm. Christopher tries to reverse it but keeps finding himself right were he started until he takes hold of Vampiro's leg forcing him to ground, but Vampiro quickly slides out of the ring to safety. When Vampiro comes back in, he is right back on top of Daniels, taking him down and locking in a headscissors. Daniels escapes and locks in a headlock, he lets Vampiro get to his feet and is whipped against the ropes and receives a shoulder block from Vampiro. Vampiro locks in a leg submission but Daniels is able to break free and slide out of the ring, as soon as Daniel's gets back in he forces Vampiro into the corner and delivers a beat down, Vamprio stumbles into the centre of the ring and Daniels runs off the ropes to return the favour with his own shoulder block, but this has little affect.
TWC Promo
When we come back Vampiro is back in control of the match-up, while Vampiro is prone in the middle of the ring, Vampiro gets the time keepers bell and drives it into the groin of Christopher Daniels. Goes for the cover, but Daniels kicks out. Vampiro whips Daniels into the turnbuckle and attempts to follow but Daniels gets the boot up just in time. Daniels hits a running neck breaking and rolls Vampiro to the outside, where Vampiro receives a clothesline and crashes to the concrete floor. Daniels gets Vampiro back in the ring and goes for the win, but Vampiro kicks out. Daniels picks him up and whips him off the ropes, yet he telegraphs the attempt at a back drop and receives a stiff kick to face from Vampiro. Daniels however quickly recovers and hits a pinning powerbomb shortly after, but Vampiro kicks out once again.
Ad Break
We return right where we left off, Daniels picks up Vamprio and delivers a leg trip setting him up for a high risk maneuver which pays off as Daniels hits a picture perfect moonsault, but again Vampiro refuses to stay down. Daniels attempts to go up top again but Vampiro catches him off guard and delivers a hip toss from the top rope that sends Christopher Daniels all the way across the ring, but Daniels doesn't want to give this one up either and kicks out at 2. Vampiro goes up top, but misses the corkscrew moonsault. Both men rise to their feet and exchange blows. Then out of nowhere Vampiro hits the Sambo suplex, pins Daniels and gets the victory!
Winner: Vampiro
Rating: 4/5
Comments: Really enjoyable match to watch. Both men gave it there all.
TWC Preview of MLW
We now switch to one of the last MLW Underground TV tapings (until MLW returns)
Main Event: Puma and Bobby Quance vs. The Stampede Bulldogs in the GTC Tag Team Carnival (Winner gets into a 3 way tag team dance for the belts)
The team of Puma and Bobby Quance enters the arena first followed by The Stampede Bulldogs!
Bobby Quance starts this one off against one of the Bulldogs, with a lot of amateur wrestling moves and take downs.
TWC Promo
When we return Puma is now in the ring instead of Bobby, It turns from an amateur style match into the fast paced lucha libre style of Puma. Couple of very good spots here followed by The Bulldogs distracting the ref, so the illegal man can interfere, giving them control of the match, and slowing the pace. I thought it was all over when the bulldogs hit a brilliant double team bomb straight into an ankle lock, yet Puma doesn't give up and grabs the bottom rope. Puma is then very isolated from his partner as the bulldogs tear him apart, somehow Puma gains enough energy to duck a clothesline and roll to make the tag!
Quance explodes into the ring with a springboard dropkick bouncing off the ropes! He then shows off his vast array of kicks on both members of the Stampede Bulldogs, swaying the advantage to the first time tag team of Quance and Puma. Puma comes in a delivers a tombstone piledriver near the corner as Bobby (still the legal man) goes to the top and hits a gorgeous shooting star splash! 1-2 NO! The count is broken up; The Bulldogs chuck Puma out of the ring! , then one gets Quance up for a powerbomb while the other springboards off the top rope and tumbles to make it a powerbomb , neckbreaker double team.1-2-3! Bulldogs advance.
Winners: The Stampede Bulldogs
