"Blood will be spilled. Limbs will be broken." LOVE that HWA opening music. We're starting off the show right away with a match.

* The Mavericks v. Sinn/TJ Hurley

Sinn violently tags in his partner, and Hurley locks up with Aaron Williams of the Mavericks, who is sporting a very long curly mullet tonight - if he was a little more greasy he could easily pull off a Necro Butcher look. Hurley drives him into the corner and the ref breaks the four count, but not before Hurley takes a few cheap shots to the face. Williams gets the better of their next encounter, locks the wrist, gets reversed, Williams rolls out of it, slaps him in the face, works the arm again and then tags a blind tag from Alan 'The Solution' Wasylychyn. If your last name had that many consonants in it, you'd go by 'The Solution' instead too. Hurley finds himself face first down in the mat as Solution works over an arm and drives repeated knees to the kidney. A pop to the jaw breaks things up and Sinn gets the tag, as does Williams. Sinn looks like a tattooed Lance Hoyt. Williams tries to sweep a leg for the MMA style takedown but is blocked to a standing switch, Williams drops to the mat to get out and turns it into a front facelock. Sinn back to his feet, Williams pushed to the corner, which gives a long lingering shot of some angel wing tattoos on Sinn's back. Sinn knocks him down with headbutts and draws a warning from the ref. Williams uses the ref's distraction to get out and clonk Sinn's head into the turnbuckle. Knife edge chops ensue. Irish whip blocked with an elbow, followed by a shoulder block, two count. Sinn pulls Williams back up, throws him off the ropes, but gets kicked in the jaw and bounced back and forth between him and The Solution. Double leapfrog by The Mavericks over Sinn, then a drop kick by Solution for two. Punches to the jaw, springboard off the second rope for two. Hard clothesline takes Solution down and Sinn argues with Williams, causing the ref to get between the two while TJ Hurley takes a cheap shot on the prone Solution. Williams tries to break it up but the ref shows him back to his corner. Solution rolls in, scoop slam by Sinn, he flahses a blood stained apron and jumps on Solution for a two count. Hurley gets the tag and puts a boot to his neck while various members of The Crew hit ringside, and Brock Guffman grabs the mic to do his own play-by-play saying it's "Hardly Wrestling with Aaron and Alan." Hurley gets a two count. Guffman says this is the last hoorah for The Mavericks because they'll be destroyed in a steel cage match on December 30th with the Irish Airborne. Hurley whips Solution pillar to post but he finally fights out with a back suplex Guffman dubs a desperation move. Two count broken up by Sinn. Hurley with an elbow to the head then tags Sinn in, who hits a slam and gets two. Sinn pulls on the hair and face, Solution fights out, suplex sets up Sinn going for a second rope headbutt and missing completely. Williams gets the hot tag and cleans house. Guffman says he has "retard Jesus strength" in the comeback, but it won't work against Irish Airborne in a 15 foot cage. Williams hits a big back bodydrop and tries to hit a dive to the outside on the Airborne, nearly killing himself in the process by catching his feet on the ropes. Sinn and Hurley go hi-low on Williams and Sinn gets the pinfall. WINNERS: TJ HURLEY/SINN. The camera pans to Williams laid out at ringside as we go to commercial. When we come back with two men already in the ring for another match.

* Brian Beech v. Ric Byrne

The announcers put over Byrne making a comeback from a broken jaw six months ago. Byrne must have put on some weight during his recovery - HWA's website bills him as 6'1" and 237 but he looks two shorter and twenty larger. Beech takes an elbow to the jaw, an eye rake, and gets worked over in the corner. Beech ducks a clothesline off the ropes, kicks to the gut, punches to the head, ducks another clothesline and catches Byrne in the head coming off the ropes. Suplex into a two count. Byrne gets repeated knees to the back and a stiff kick to the spine, followed by a neck whip and another two count. Byrne fights to his feet and tries a whip, gets reversed, but Beech eats an elbow charging in. Byrne with knees to the head and punches, Beech pulled upright to eat some right hands, the ref warns Byrne to quit and Beech uses the recovery time to reverse and work Byrne over. Beech with a neck breaker and a leg sweep and both men are down. Beech to his feet, pulls Byrne up by the hair, Byrne tries a reversal off the ropes but winds up in a spinebuster. Suddenly Kimera does a run-in and superkicks Beech, and the ref calls for the bell. WINNER BY DQ: BRIAN BEECH. Gotti runs in and grabs Ric Byrne, and it's chaos in the ring. Kimera goes out for a chair and clocks Gotti in the back, then to the small of Beech's back. Byrne picks up Gotti and slams his head to the mat hard, and he's left laid out with Byrne standing over him saying "I told you" repeatedly. Commercial break.

* Chris Carnage/Kimo v. Irish Airborne

The Airborne's titles are not on the line as Brock Guffman cuts a promo beforehand and says this is just a warm-up before they destroy The Mavericks on December 30th, noting Airborne's two opponents tonight combined can't come up with three-quarters of a brain between them. Guffman even goes so far as to say they've worked Ring of Honor, so they've been in the ring with far better opponents than "these two hacks." Pretty obvious where this is going. Guffman gets a threatening gesture from the duo and runs away, proclaiming himself a pacifist who won't engage in physical violence. Lots of stalling before Airborne finally get into the ring. Kimo stares diwn Dave Crist, quickly overpowers him, goes outside to get a piece of Guffman who quickly runs away. Kimo eats some chops when he comes back in and just stands there ignoring them until he knocks Dave down and goes back outside after Guffman again. Dave Crist tries to crossbody him out on the floor but gets caught mid-air and slammed into the ring post. Kimo chases Guffman down but eats a Crist dropkick through the ropes and bounces into the wall. The Airborne double team him and roll Kimo back in, Jake Crist somersaults over the top rope into Kimo, the two-on-one beatdown continues, Kimo picked up and thrown off the ropes but returns the favor with a double clothesline. Carnage gets the tag and gives Dave Crist a stiff clothesline off the ropes. Carnage beats him like he stole somethin', whips him, spears him, mauls him, and meanwhile Kimo is on the outside chasing Guffman so Carnage has nobody to tag and gets double teamed again while the ref stands feebly on. Jake tagged in to work over Dave, Dave gets tagged back in, a double dropkick doesn't knock Carnage off his feet, Jake tagged in again, suplex attempt blocked and a double suplex on the Crist brothers. Kimo gets the tag and takes the Crist brothers apart, then hits a twisting leg drop for two. Clusterfuck ensues. Each Crist brother gets picked up for a delayed toss, as the announcers mock that they were in fact "airborne." Guffman pulls his boys out of the ring and refuses to let the match continue. WINNERS VIA COUNTOUT: CARNAGE/KIMO. Commercial.

* Josh Rafferty v. Mitch Magnus

Rafferty comes out with a hot valet and some sort of champagne to enjoy after his victory. This is a quick squash, not much to it, Rafferty puts Mitch Magnus in a rear naked choke and begs him to tap, but Magnus simply passes out and he's unable to continue. WINNER: JOSH RAFFERTY. Sean Casey limps into the ring on crutches wearing a Brian Pillman jersey, and he congratulates Rafferty on his winning streak (even though it's only two matches, starting with last week) and he says it's time for the three of them to celebrate. The announcers point out Rafferty's not exactly beating up the HWA cream of the crop, but Sean Casey interrupts and says he's got the fourth and fifth member of the Five Most Wanted in the building - The Hippies. He tells them to open the bottle pointed up so nobody loses an eye, they help pour drinks, and Sean Casey puts over the fact they're tanned and trim like Casey and belong in the group. It's all a big set-up of course as the moment their backs are turned they eat the bottle and glasses upside the head, Casey does a beatdown with the crutches, but Kimo comes out to make the save. Casey begs for mercy as he's unable to get out of the ring, Rafferty and the valey stay on the outside far out of harm's way, and Kimo asks The Hippies if they want a piece of Casey as he's prone in the corner. Here comes the Russo-riffic double swerve - Kimo clotheslines both Hippies when they're not expecting it and stacks them up like cordwood, then does a second rope moonsault on the pile. He slaps hands with Rafferty, and Casey announces him as the REAL fourth member of the Five Most Wanted. Kimo gloats as we go to commercial.

* Chad Collyer/Nigel McGuinness v. Chad Allegra/Rocky Romero

Nigel tries to claim the center of the ring before the match even starts, while Romero tries to do a sexy wiggle. Collyer and Romero finally start things off, series of standing switches and leg holds as they jockey for position and finally get back to their feet. Romero catches Collyer with a kick to the gut, stomps on a knee, knife edge chop, and a closed fist warning from the ref. Collyer hits a dropikcik, twists the arm, and tags in Nigel. McGuinness hits a top rope axe handle, suplexes Romero, and only gets a one count. Nigel twists the arm, Romero rakes the eyes, and Allegra gets a tag. Allegra fares no better as Nigel stomps on his left arm and tags Chad back in, then the two ping pong his head back and forth. Senton by Collyer gets two and a half. Collyer stomps on the hand, hits a chop, throw to the ropes reversed and Collyer gets a foot to the back. Romero and Allegra double team him with stomps. Collyer back to his feet for a second but Romero knocks him down and then starts jawing with the crowd. Allegra gets the tag and pins Collyer twice for two. Collyer thrown to the corner for another tag to Romero, and Collyer continues to play face in peril as McGuinness slaps the ropes and begs for a tag. Collyer tries to stumble over and give it to him but both men jump in the ring to cut him off. Romero whips Allegra to the corner for a splash but Collyer gets out of the way as he misses and then McGuinness finally comes in to clear the ring. European uppercuts to Allegra, spinning clothesline, and a pin for 2 and 9/10ths. McGuiness eats a boot but repays the favor with a kick to the back and a short clothesline for another near fall. McGuiness gets double teamed, bicycle kicked, but it's only a two count. Spinebuster nearly gets 3. Romero gets in and now Collyer's begging for the tag. Leg sweep takes Romero down and Collyer gets another tag. High back bodydrop, double underhook reversed, cross armbreaker applied and Collyer's in danger. McGuinness can't help as Allegra has him held down in the corner, but Collyer reverses it into a texas cloverleaf and McGuinness tries to prevent Allegra from breaking it up but he escapes and breaks it up. Nigel and Allegra brawl in the ring, the heels go for a ricochet but Romero ends up eating it, Nigel superkicks him into a Collyer german suplex, which he bridges for the pinfall. WINNERS: COLLYER/MCGUINNESS. A fun little main event to end the show. Thanks for reading the HWA Adrenaline Recap, hasta luego~!
