Midwest Wrestling Federation
MWF Presents Evolution
Saturday, April 27, 2002 (Baby)
National Guard Armory
Pittsburg, Kansas

Remember how Sesame Street was brought to you by two letters and a number? Well, this report was brought to you by the makers of Anbesol and Orajel because I’ve had a toothache for the past few days, but as of Sunday Morning, my tooth feels much better. After seeing Miss Thursday Night, Miss Friday Night and Sunday Nite Special, if this post was brought to you by a number, it would have to be the number 69. (Did Tony D. just say that, tell me he did not just say that).

On Saturday, April 27, 2002 (Baby), The Midwest Wrestling Federation Kansas came to Pittsburg Kansas to the National Guard Armory for their show Evolution. I could count the house at their last show, but I couldn’t count them tonight. I’d say it was pretty close to being sold out though. I had to sit second row because I didn’t to the show in time. I was pleasantly surprised by the crowd.

The Midwest Wrestling Federation came to town last August and since then they have split into three territories: MWF Arkansas, MWF Missouri and MWF Kansas. Tonight we will crown a new MWF Kansas Champion!

At 2 PM, I went to the Armory for the autograph signing/Polaroid thing and I got my picture taken with "Dastardly" Danny Doring, K-Kwik and one picture with Danny, K-Kwik and me. Danny said that I had "the Paul Heyman look." I was wearing a cap and had my hair in a ponytail and I haven’t shaved this week. K-Kwik agreed. We talked for a few minutes about the Indy scene and The WWF the injuries of Scotty 2 Hotty and Lita and other stuff.

The show started with a 10 bell salute to Chief Wahoo McDaniel. (As an aside, I wrote an article about Wahoo McDaniel and a match he had against Ric Flair in May of 1984 over at Kayfabe Memories. Click Here to read about that. Wahoo died on April 18, 2002.)

There’s a group of fans called "The Ratz Nezt" that was at the show, and two of them wear Viking helmets. Romeo Paradise got in the ring and pointed them out and made fun of them. Romeo had a great line about all of the fans, and it was three words, one of which was "redneck." I repeated it to my friend Vic but I didn’t get it written down.

It’s time for PROTOCOL!

There are commentators at ringside that call the action on an open mike. It’s a pretty cool idea (even if they are a bit hard to hear). I was sitting by them. There’s a "face" commentator and a "heel" commentator.

Preshow Match #1: Chip Douglas vs. Jimmy Joe Bob vs. "The Next Legend" Logan Moore.

Romeo Paradise is doing commentary for this match, and because he’s Romeo Paradise, he declared this a "Romeo Rulz" match (since he does rule) and it’s going to be Chip Douglas and Jimmy Joe Bob vs. TNL Logan Moore. Jimmy Joe Bob with a clothesline on Logan Moore. Bob with a bodyslam and Chip Douglas with a legdrop on Logan Moore. They both kick TNL. A fan in a Patriot mask hit the ring! The Fan Patriot is cleaning house. He takes off his mask and... IT’S THE LUNATIC! The Lunatic is back in The MWF for the first time since August. Romeo declares this a tag team match, now it’s...

Chip Douglas and Jimmy Joe Bob vs. "The Next Legend" Logan Moore and The Lunatic.

Lunatic off the ropes and he shoulderblocked Chip. Lunatic with another shoulderblock, and another, and another! Lunatic and Chip Douglas lock up in a test of strength. Chip is losing the test of strength, but he gets the Lunatic in an armbar. Lunatic tagged Logan. Logan Moore armbar on Chip. Chip with his own armbar and a tag to Jimmy Joe Bob. Bob with an armbar on TNL. Logan with an armbar takedown. Logan with a tag and Lunatic kicked Bob in the stomach. Lunatic with an Irish Whip that sent Bob in the corner. Lunatic charges the corner and hits and spins in mid-air to drive into Bob butt-first. Logan with a clothesline on Bob. Bob with a lowblow. We are down to the last two minutes, and Romeo declares the last two minutes anything goes and it’s Texas Tornado style. Logan has Bob in a legscissors and The Lunatic powerbombed Chip and got the three count.

Winners: "The Next Legend" Logan Moore and The Lunatic.

Romeo told Vic to shut up, and I told Vic to shut up too.

Preshow Match #2: Pimptight Kevin Lovejones vs. "The Space Cowboy" Jason Jones.

It’s a "Spotlight Match" with a 10 minute time limit. Kevin Lovejones is "The Original Frat Boy". Jason Jones weighs in at 265 pounds and he is the Vice President of The MWF. I didn’t know this at the time, but Jason Jones is the same "Double J" that was in The WWA in April of 1999. They lock up and The Space Cowboy with a bodyslam on Kevin Lovejones. Lovejones with an armbar and a hammerlock on Jones. Jones reverses the hammerlock and Lovejones reverses the hammerlock too. Lovejones with a headlock on Jones. Jones rakes his nails across the back of Jones. Lovejones with a bearhug on The Space Cowboy. The Space Cowboy with a forearm. One of them comes off the ropes and they clothesline each other. Lovejones with a legdrop on Jones. Lovejones climbed to the second rope. He comes off with another legdrop but The Space Cowboy rolled out of the way. Kevin Lovejones rolls out of the ring and Jason Jones is flapping his arms like a chicken because Lovejones isn’t getting back in the ring. Lovejones back in the ring and they lockup. The Space Cowboy with a sleeper on Kevin Lovejones. The Referee is down. Kevin Lovejones with forearms and punches. Kneelift by Pimptight. The Space Cowboy with a bulldog and he has made the pin but the Ref is still down. Lowblow by Kevin Lovejones and a few punches and an elbowsmash. The Space Cowboy hits the "45 Special" (DDT) for the win. I was talking to Vic during the match, and Romeo Paradise looked at Vic and told him to shut up.

Michael Barry and the ladies join Thomas Moore in the ring. They introduce the women Sunday Nite Special because everyone likes to get closer to God. Miss Friday Night because Friday Night is almost as good as Saturday Night. Miss Thursday Night because Thursday is the day after "Hump Day". One of the girls is wearing a belt, I think that is one of the Cruiserweight Tag Team Championship belts. "Handsome" Brandon Tripod holds the other Cruiserweight Tag Team belt.

Winner: Michael Faith

Johnny Holiday comes to the ring and he says that tonight, Kong will have to wrestle in an MWF Extreme Death Match. He calls Kong out and Kong comes out with one of the ladies of Michael Barry. No, she’s not coming with Kong willingly, he has her draped over her shoulder and he’s spanking her repeatedly as he carries her to ringside. Before Kong gets in the ring, he lets go of her and she goes to the back. Kong got tired of listening to Johnny, and so Kong broke a lightbulb over Johnny’s head! There’s a heel commentator that said "Do they have a hospital in this very large trailer park?" Calling Pittsburg, Kansas a trailer park, what is he thinking?

Michael Barry with a headbutt into Dusty’s stomach. Michael Barry with a figure four and he used the ropes for leverage for a little bit. One of the girls came over there and she and Michael locked hands and he used her for leverage. He’s working over Dusty’s knee and I do believe that Dusty used an eyerake.

Michael Barry with an STF on Dusty Wolfe. Michael Barry has a strap or a belt. Dusty Wolfe with an eyerake, a series of punches and a headbutt. Dusty with a few more punches.

One of the girls handed Michael Barry the knuckles (they’re heavily taped, I think they’re brass knuckles). Dusty with a roll up and Michael Barry slips the Brass knuckles into Dusty’s kneepad. The Referee counts three. Dusty Wolfe pinned Michael Barry! The Referee saw the brass knuckles and reversed the decision!

A female fan has taken off her shoe and she’s threatening to hit Michael Barry, one of the girls AND the Referee! A security guy gets her to sit back down.

Wow, that was a GREAT show. The MWF are in Joplin Missouri this Friday. They will be back here in September and November. (I’m hoping that MAYBE they can be here before September!). Logan Moore showed why he is indeed "The Next Legend" and Krow impressed me a lot. I guess if you want to start the show off right, have TNL in the first match. (-: Seven and Kong had a great hardcore match, Tripod and Playboy had a great match, it was a really great show top to bottom. After the show, I showed the Space Cowboy some pictures that I took of him in 1999 at The WWA show, and he was freaking out and calling people to check them out. Danny Doring told me in the afternoon that the stores didn’t carry Rampage Magazine in his area, so I bought him the latest issue of Rampage since there’s a poster of him in it and I gave it to him at the show. I went home with several autographs, a Krow keychain and a Danny Doring T-shirt.
