Sara Del Rey vs. Sarah Stock

A dream come true for yours truly, my two favorite female wrestlers battling for the SHIMMER championship in the main event of a high-profile SHIMMER DVD. The American Angel defending against the Dark Angel, who I personally consider to be a Canadian Angel. To make this occasion all the more special, it was a rare two out of three falls contest. Thank you, SHIMMER. This is the first time I’ve ever seen Sarah Stock wrestle somebody that is anywhere near her level. This incredibly hard fought match is definitely not to be missed!

Cheerleader Melissa vs. Amazing Kong

Amazing Kong was extra pissed after a controversial loss to SHIMMER champion Sara Del Rey on Volume 15. Kong was not pinned by the champion, but instead was counted down after a high-impact exchange with Del Rey. Another loss would destroy Kong’s chances of getting a rematch with Sara Del Rey for the SHIMMER title. Melissa, on the other hand, is on a huge winning streak, and also has her eye on a future shot at the SHIMMER championship. The stakes were as high as ever in this match that is not to be missed!

Daffney Unger vs. Cindy Rogers

I know Daffney hasn’t used the “Unger” name in a long time, but I think her former WCW name is one of the coolest gimmick name’s of all-time - so, to me, she always be an Unger! Now although Daffney has been in the business for ten years now, she didn’t start wrestling serious matches until about two years ago. Everybody loves Daffney, though, including me, so we can forgive her for her technical inexperience. However, tonight she goes up against Cindy Rogers, the definition of technician, who is a tough opponent to beat and is sure to give the Scream Queen a great match!

Rain & Lacey & Jetta vs. MsChif & Daizee Haze & Eden Black

The “honorary home-wrecker” Jetta is the UK nemesis of “Jezebel” Eden Black, and there is plenty of history between Rain/Lacey and MsChif/Haze going back many years. Randon note to Dave Prazak: I want to see Eden Black vs. Portia Perez. Rain came up with the ingenious idea of wearing protective goggles to avoid getting sprayed by MsChif’s dreaded “green mist.” The three home-wreckers milked the fans for all they were worth as they couldn’t decide which one of them would start the match against MsChif.

Alexa Thatcher vs. Ashley Lane

Alexa Thatcher has had some pretty strong outings, but has yet to pick up a victory in SHIMMER competition. I like to call Thatcher every boy’s high school crush, because she just looks like that kind of girl. I can’t stress enough how good she is in the ring, though. Ashley Lane, who some may know as Lexi Lane, is a tiny skinny blond with not much experience but a whole hell of a lot to prove.

The Experience vs. Allison Danger & Serena Deeb

Fyfe and Hosaka were all-business, as they went up against a formidable team made up of SHIMMER ambassador Allison Danger and OVW star Serena Deeb. I really went overboard on praising Serena’s smokin’ body in my last review so I will not mention how incredibly hot she looks in this review. Dave Prazak got a chuckle out of me when he referred to them as “Dangerous and Deebious.” It turns out Danger and Deeb actually make a pretty good tag team, but do they got what it takes to beat the notorious "Experience"!

Portia Perez & Nicole Matthews vs. Portuguese Princess Ariel & Josie

Portia Perez is a really well seasoned heel (despite her youth), whereas British Columbia’s own Nicole Matthews still needs a little work - but being in SHIMMER will speed up that process. The rowdy fans in Berwyn did not show any welcome to the all-Canadian heel team of Perez and Matthews, who are calling themselves “Frickin’ Awesome.” Ariel and Josie however, had their own plans of knocking the cockiness out of these two in this solid preliminary match from Shimmer volume 16.

Amber O’Neal vs. Lorelei Lee

ckelsey — Thu, 24 Jul 2008 17:45:26 -0700

Amber O’Neal shook her hot-pink ass on the way to the ring to face “Country Girl” Lorelei Lee in the opening match of Volume 16. The Country Girl is not thin, but possesses an incredibly hard body (solid abs), as a result of her superior fitness and nutrition philosophies. Despite being one of the most experienced women in SHIMMER, Amber O’Neal has been on a very disappointing losing streak. The announcers have constantly gotten on her case about caring more about her own looks than picking up victories in SHIMMER competition.

Sara Del Rey vs. Amazing Kong

ckelsey — Fri, 27 Jun 2008 21:14:35 -0700

Here we go… big match atmosphere for this one folks. Kong cuts out to a hugely positive reaction, which is no surprise given her status with literally every fan in the building on their feet. I still think, even here, Sara looks too friendly and settled, although she does make some attempt to look a little more focused for Kong. Kong looks terrifying. Unbelievable match. The fans really helped with the atmosphere of this one, as it felt like an absolutely crucial effort right from the get go. The build-up to Sara’s big spots was like a dictionary definition as to how to get moves over.

Daizee Haze vs. Sarah Stock

ckelsey — Fri, 27 Jun 2008 21:06:47 -0700

Positive reactions for both ladies, which is no shock .Sarah has quickly become one of the favorites on the roster, thanks to her sterling work, but Daizee is still a sentimental favorite. They start the match with some mat-wrestling, including an array of arm-drags from Sarah, and headlocks from Daizee, and it’s some beautifully fluid stuff. Superb bout. Really enjoyable stuff, and in terms of pace, blows away everything else on the show that has came before. Stock is just an absolute revelation, and Daizee is a really underrated performer.
