AAW Day of Defiance 2014

Another fantastic show by AAW.  I'm really loving the product they are putting together.  

Steen/Jacobs/Hollister was s blast and the tag team ladder match was filled with tons of great ladder spots.  All in all check this show out if you're an indie wrestling fan, it showcases a lot of talent you probably enjoy.

Ring Of Honor- Raising the Bar (night 1)

This past Friday Ring of Honor came to Milwaukee, WI for night one of Raising the Bar.  I was lucky enough to shoot both of these events, and neither disappointed.

In addition to ROH's already stacked roster, the most internationally over tag team in the world, The Young Bucks, brought their superkick party to the midwest in really great exciting matches both nights.  In addition to the Bucks, stars like Kevin Steen, Roderick Strong, Chris Hero, Adam Cole, The Briscoes, Outlaw Inc, Michael Elgin, ACH, reDRagon, and so many more piled onto these cards to make these two shows really great.  Anyway, here's a glimpse of what went down in Milwaukee on night one:

AAW WINDY CITY CLASSIC IX!!

On Saturday evening (11/30/13) AAW put on its biggest show of the year at Berwyn Eagles, and Windy City Classic IX lived up to its hype.  The show was headlined by indie wrestling mega star "Mr Wrestling" Kevin Steen challenging dominant champion Shane Hollister for his strap in Steen's debut match for AAW.  Hollister proved to Steen the buzz surrounding "The New World Man" is legit, in a fantastic match between the two.

The whole rest of the card was stacked as well, featuring an incredibly exciting conclusion to the Allegiance Tag Tournament, along with ACH vs Matt Cage for the Heritage Championship, and tons more.  All in all another fantastic showing from Chicago's breakout promotion, it should be interesting to see what unfolds as the dust settles at One Twisted Christmas in late December.

Make sure to check out the full set HERE.

AAW WAR IS COMING 2013

So, I'm going to try a little different format for this blog.  Instead of posting multiple photos from single matches, each post will now be a few shots from a single event with a link back to the entire set.  I'm going to try and do this immediately after each show so the photos will be fresh.  I've also been awful at updating (as I am with blogs), so hopefully this will keep me doing it.

On that note, here's AAW's most recent show, WAR IS COMING.

Things in AAW are heating up, with the Allegiance Tag Tournament winding down and leaving some awesome semifinal and a high potential for an amazing final match.  Every team has a clear path as to why they need to win, so the outcome should be incredibly exciting to watch unfold at Windy City Classic later this month.  The heavyweight championship picture is also picking up steam as difficult challengers seem to be stacking up in front of "The New World Man" Shane Hollister.  It should be interesting to see what obstacles the champ can avoid and how long he manage to keep the belt on his waist, especially throwing Kevin Steen into the mix as his next opponent. Not to mention the turmoil escalating between Eddie Kingston and Silas Young, "Money" Matt Cage turning some heads, Keith Walker on the warpath, and so much more.
