In a matter of months, INSPIRE PRO has grown exponentially, showcasing the best pro wrestling talent in the state of Texas and beyond. On October 13th, INSPIRE PRO returns to the Marchesa Hall & Theater in Austin, Texas for THE QUICK AND THE DEAD – another card full of over-the-top-tier action, where any given match could steal the show! Here’s a preview of our upcoming card:
The Pump Patrol (AJ
Summers & Jared Wayne) vs. Reign Or Shine (Alex Reigns & Moonshine
Mantell)
The Pump Patrol
return to tag action at THE QUICK AND THE DEAD, and have once again vowed to
perform a “flexorcism” on the fatties of Austin. However, if they thought last
month was a challenge, they face an Everest-like climb against the debuting Reign Or Shine -- a team composed of
“Untouchable” Alex Reigns and Moonshine Mantell. This combo has
already proven to be a formidable force throughout the Southern U.S., and
they’ve let it be known to the Inspire office that they aren’t here to mess
around. When asked how Pump Patrol was preparing for their upcoming match
against Reign or Shine, Jared Wayne
said, "Prepare? Prepare isn't what you do before a show! Prepared is what you ARE. 'Ready' isn't momentary, 'ready' is a lifestyle. Cut the fat, push the weights, lift the roof off the building! We don't prepare! We LIVE PREPARED!"
“Old School” Houston Carson vs. Scotty
Santiago
The question has been posed, does the building exist if Houston
Carson has yet to enter? According to Carson, no it does not. The man finally
makes his Inspire Pro debut this month after a long wait, and in that time he’s
been vocal about his potential importance to the promotion. Simply put:
“Inspire Pro does not matter until I’m there.” Carson’s been otherwise
tight-lipped, though smug regarding what he has in store for us, but we’re
certain he intends to become an impact player in our title scene. Also making
his Inspire debut is Funaki Dojo student Scotty Santiago. Santiago is very
evidently an underdog against the classically proportioned Carson, and he is
eager to make the most of this opportunity. What one man may view as mere
formality may be viewed as pure war by another. Santiago said, “I’m not taking
this lightly. I’m not there to just ‘try and’ do my best. I’m going there to
leave Carson on his back.”
Thomas Shire vs.
Cherry Ramons
Back by popular demand, the sensational Cherry Ramons returns
to Inspire Pro, this time in singles action. He will face Thomas Shire, a man
who held his own against the mysterious Great Depression at WIRED FOR WAR. It
was a bitter technical loss for this up-and-comer, which he is hardly willing
to accept. Back in July, Cherry managed to surprise the Inspire office with his
in-ring ability, and insider expectations are that this could be a breakout
match on the card. In fact, Inspire Owner Josh Montgomery personally lobbied
for this match, and when asked why, he screamed, “Cherry Ramons is what is best
for business!” Let’s hope Cherry’s flamboyance doesn’t encourage Thomas Shire
to let his guard down. Gentlemen, bring your A-games!
“The Cowboy” James
Claxton vs. The Great Depression
At WIRED FOR WAR, The
Great Depression unleashed the vicious side buried within him, refusing to
release a claw to the eye of Thomas
Shire. While most might feel a pang of reluctance at the idea of wrestling
with such a mean streak, James Claxton is no ordinary man, and what might seem
terrifying to most seems like a good time to him. Indeed, it was James Claxton
himself that requested this encounter, claiming that he wants to show the much
younger Thomas Shire how to handle himself. Since arriving on the scene,
popular opinion has been that Shire – a student of the legendary Dory Funk Jr.
– has the potential to be one of the best big men this state has ever seen. Claxton
recently stated that while Shire has the size and strength, he hasn’t quite
learned how to tie it all together. Claxton has decided to make an example out
of Depression. However, the limits of this beast have not thoroughly been
tested. This may be a job easier said than done for Claxton. Good luck, Cowboy!
“Unholy” Greg James,
Morbidus & Blasphemer vs. Erick Shadows, Jodan & Downfall
Back in July, Inspire hosted a defense of the NWA Revolution
Grand Warrior title, which exceeded everyone’s expectations and sent fans
clamoring for their return. This October, Erick
Shadows, Downfall, and Jodan return to the Inspire ring for
Trios action against Team LEGION,
captained by “Unholy” Greg James. Also joining Greg will be mist-spewing
Morbidus, who accompanied him at the WIRED FOR WAR event. James has vowed that
there will be a new disciple at THE QUICK AND THE DEAD to round out his unholy
trinity – an entity whom he has referred to simply as “Blasphemer.” What can we
expect? While James and company may cut an imposing image, the youngsters from
McAllen possess more than enough ability to compete.
Bolt Brady &
Barrett Brown vs. The Dagger Brothers (Kevin & Mike Dagger)
The tag team division in Inspire Pro is beginning to heat
up, and every team is looking to establish themselves as early as possible. Kevin and Mike Dagger gained a victory last month in the first ever Inspire
Pro tag team match, showing a great amount of teamwork and synchronicity.
However, they face a tough challenge on October 13th at the hands of
“The Supercharged Superstar” Bolt Brady
and “The Chosen One” Barrett Brown.
Though they are teaming for the first time, these two young athletes have
already established themselves amongst some of the best in Texas, and could be
a force to be reckoned. On their own, Brady and Brown are potential best in
Texas candidates, but if chemistry clicks as a team, the Daggers might be in
trouble.
Ray “Death” Rowe vs.
“The Infamous” Shawn Vexx
The long and short of this match is simple: it’s going to
get savage. To those who know them, the notion of redemption for either of
these men seems unnecessary. When your honor is made of iron, there is
virtually no loss that can tarnish your legacy. Nevertheless, both men have
something personal to prove to themselves on October 13th in what
some have called a Texas Dream Match. In this Strong-Style battle, both men
will inevitably take it to the limit to avenge their losses at WIRED FOR WAR.
No matter what, respect will be had, but there can be only one clear winner.
Street Fight: “The
Mind Of Wrestling” JT Lamotta vs. “Dirty” Andy Dalton
Andy Dalton and JT LaMotta have traveled roads together
for over a decade now. Their rivalry and eventual team ups have been the stuff
that legends are made of. At WIRED FOR WAR, Dalton decided to make an impact in
Jordan Jensen’s match against
LaMotta, and he may have set off a powder keg in the process. While the Mind of
Wrestling may be retired from in-ring action, with his last match already
having passed, LaMotta has warned Dalton that it doesn’t mean he isn’t up for a
good fight. This prompted Dalton to one last dance. LaMotta has accepted, and
so, at our QUICK AND THE DEAD EVENT, the two will square off in an old-fashioned
STREET FIGHT. Just how dirty will Andy Dalton get? Meanwhile, LaMotta seems
less interested in wins and losses, and more interested in doling out a
beating. And at the center of it all, the man responsible for training both of
these competitors has agreed to referee the match. While this is a fitting
final chapter in JT LaMotta’s legacy of walking tall, it’s hard to speculate
just how this will end.
“The Heaviest Sumo In
The Land” JoJo Bravo vs. “The Essence Of Excellence” Robert Evans
Many contest that JoJo Bravo may be the most beloved
wrestler in the state of Texas. It is his humor and moxie which have endeared
him to the vast majority of fans who’ve witnessed him perform. But Bravo never
fails to back his rapier-like wit with a distinct and exciting style. Bravo is
what many might call a student of the game, marrying many details from a
diverse batch of influences into a singularly great presence. But in this realm
which Bravo now presides over, there once was a man of similar quality. Of course,
we speak of none other than the “Essence of Excellence” himself, ROBERT EVANS!
While neither man is alien to the other, Bravo’s meteoric rise has virtually
banished the shadow of Evans. On October 13th, however Evans will
return from his adventures abroad to remind us why he will always be our
Excellency. October’s QUICK AND THE DEAD lineup is already staggered with a
great number of potential show-stealing matches, and this first-time meeting
between these two larger than life entities is bound to wow. Who will stand
tall at the end of all? Will Evans reinforce his shadow over this great state,
or will JoJo force him to bow to his successor?
Inspire Pro
Championship Semi-Finals: Scot Summers vs. “Absolute” Ricky Starks vs. Jordan
Jensen
There is one slot left in the Championship Final three-way,
which will crown the first Inspire Pro champion. Davey Vega and Mike Dell
fill the first two spots, and on October 13th we will find out who
will join them. At our WIRED FOR WAR event, Scot Summers advanced to October’s
semi-final round after an absolute war against Ray Rowe. “Absolute” Ricky Starks overcame both Barrett Brown and Shawn Vexx in a single night to join Summers. Lastly, Jordan Jensen squeaked by with a
questionable victory over JT LaMotta
to earn the third and final spot. Only ONE of these competitors will move on to
join both Dell and Vega in the final for the gold.
