Official Results from AGCSWF LoveFest: 02-14-2000

Reported by: Christian Crawford

The show opened with a shot of the throngs of cheering fans who had filled the arena in anticipation of what many were saying would be one of the best AGCSWF Pay-Per-View events in history. The cameras then switched to the ring as the lights went down for the first match of the evening.

"Mr. Jitterbug" Chad Martinac pinned Freeze to win his first singles championship, the AGCSWF U.S. title, after interference from Brandon Cowles. Freeze started the match out strong, catching Jitterbug with several back-to-back maneuvers that left him stunned; however, the former Tag Team champ recovered momentarily, hitting Freeze with a gutbuster and a snap suplex in the center of the ring. At this point, Freeze's buddy Dan Burns made his presence known, entering the fracas and clotheslining Jitterbug nearly out of his boots. This was followed by a tandem suplex and then the Ice Breaker from Freeze.

However, none other than Brandon Cowles made the save for Chad, running down to the ring and taking both of Chad's assailants out with a broken desktop to the head. Brandon then set Freeze up, delivered the Brando Blockbuster off the second rope, and placed Jitterbug on top of her for the win, revealing that the duo's so-called "break-up" had been a ruse to get them closer to the U.S. title. After the match, the new champion and his friend headed to the locker room area together, having evidently split up as a tag team but formed an even more dangerous coalition in the process.

Bryce Aaron Curtis defeated Fast Edward, Peter Hartman, and Dane Gammon in a no-DQ matchup to become the new AGCSWF Hardcore champion. The match kicked off with Peter and Edward getting into a knockdown, drag-out brawl, while Bryce and Dane stood back and simply watched them. Eventually, Peter realized what was going on, and he stopped beating up on Edward long enough to walk over and spit in Dane's face. An engaged Dane reached out, grabbed Peter around the throat, and lifted him high in the air for a chokeslam, but was stopped before he could do anything else when Bryce took out his left knee from behind.

Bryce then picked both Peter and Dane up to their feet and hit them with a devastating double chokeslam; he attempted to get the pinfall on Peter, but the count was broken up by Fast Edward, who received a jackknife powerbomb for his trouble. When Bryce tried to pin Peter a second time, the Favorites member was able to kick out at two, so Bryce jerked him to his feet and chokeslammed him once again. As the crowd began to cheer loudly, Bryce clotheslined the interfering Dane and Edward over the ropes, then tied up Peter and got the pinfall to become the champ.

"Action Tim" Brison scored a shocking upset victory over Ruudboy to become the new AGCSWF Lightheavyweight champion after interference from two mysterious young men who were soon revealed to be Tim's old friends, David Temple and Jared Rupp. Ruudboy dominated his younger, smaller opponent in the opening minutes of the match, catching him with a clothesline, back body-drop, and a bodyslam in the center of the ring. However, Tim managed to fight his way back from the brink of defeat by nailing the champion with a surprise dropkick, which threw Ruudboy backwards over the ropes. Tim then ascended to the top rope and hit a suicide dive out of the ring onto Ruudboy, flattening both men.

But Ruudboy wasn't done yet by a long shot, as he pitched Action Tim into the steel ring steps, then rolled him back into the ring and hit his finisher, the Ruuditude. It looked as though Ruudboy had the match won, but just then two unknown wrestlers came running down to the ring wielding metal pipes and proceeded to beat Ruudboy mercilessly until he was helpless. Action Tim recovered, went up to the top rope a second time, and hit a diving headbutt to pick up the win and the Lightheavyweight championship.

Afterwards, Tim introduced his new friends to the crowd and thanked them for helping him to win the belt. All three men then left the ring and headed backstage as an injured Ruudboy lay in the ring, not quite believing what had just happened to him.

Tyler Knotts pinned Chad Ehrmann to retain the AGCSWF European title after hitting Chad with an unexpected powerbomb, belly-to-belly suplex, and finishing him off with a top-rope superplex through a table which Chad had set up in the ring prior to the match. All of this was completed in almost record time by the champion, and the crowd was amazed at how quickly Tyler was able to neutralize his talented opponent and get the three-count. After the match, Tyler punished Chad with repeated piledrivers onto a nearby metal lunch tray until members of the Scooby-Doo Club finally pulled him off.

Chris "Chrispytoast" Burros defeated N. Heare and E. Heare in a special challenge Triple Threat Title match to become the new champion in what many considered to be a major upset. Chrispy basically just stood in the corner of the ring and watched the action take place for the first few moments, as brothers and former tag team partners E. Heare and N. Heare tore into each other from the opening bell. After the two men flattened each other following a double attempt at a clothesline off the ropes, Chrispytoast nailed N. Heare with a big splash, then pulled E. Heare over to the corner and sat on his chest from the second turnbuckle.

Amazingly, E. Heare managed to kick out of Chrispy's pinfall attempt, and the match continued. Only a few moments later, the former leader of the now-defunct CSOS/NCA Invasion, Nicholaas Leembruggen, came down to the ring and displayed his contempt for the Heare brothers by hitting both men with a powerbomb. Chrispy, however, caught Nick in a back suplex, then hurled him over the ropes and covered N. Heare for the win, giving the Scooby-Doo Club member his second-ever aGcsWF championship belt. Afterwards, Chrispy celebrated becoming a two-time Triple Threat Match champion with his friends and stablemates Tyler Knotts and Justin Penkert.

Razor and Crash defeated "The Gentleman" Grant Ankrom and "Big R" Russell Davis in a tag team ladder match in which a briefcase containing the incriminating files that Linda A. had used to have Razor arrested the week before were suspended above the ring. An added stipulation was that if Grant or Big R climbed one of the ladders and got ahold of the files first, Razor and Crash would be immediately arrested and sent to jail following the match. The two teams made their way down to the ring, which already had two ladders stationed at separate turnbuckles, and the referee rang the bell to begin this unique contest.

The two Renegades members, Razor and Crash, started out the match with a powerful double-team clothesline on Big R; this was followed by a spinning heel kick to Grant from Razor. But The Favorites would not be outdone that easily, as Grant got back up to his feet, hit Razor with a backbreaker, then grabbed him and held the former World champion high over his head, dumping him face-first into the nearby ladder. As both Razor and the ladder went tumbling backwards, Crash took revenge on Grant by nailing him with a piledriver. Razor then rolled out of the ring and grabbed a metal lunch tray, returned, and used it to slow Big R down with a decisive smash to the forehead.

Crash set up one of the ladders directly underneath the suspended briefcase and began to climb, but as he did, Grant recovered and started to climb up along with him. Near the top of the ladder, the two enemies got into a fistfight, however Grant was given the advantage when Big R climbed up halfway and delivered a low blow to Crash. It looked as if The Favorites were going to win the match, but just then Razor seized his opportunity and nailed the ladder with a flying dropkick from the top rope. All three competitors came crashing back down to the mat, along with the ladder, which landed on the helpless Grant and ended up splitting his face wide open.

The first blood of this match had been drawn, and a furious Big R reacted violently, grabbing Razor and bodyslamming him onto the ladder without first thinking of the fact that Grant was still underneath it. As Grant and Razor rolled around in pain, Crash kicked Big R in the gut and hit the Cymbal onto a metal lunch tray. Crash then set up the ladder a second time, but instead of climbing it, he picked it up over his head and dumped it onto Big R. The Renegades member placed the metal lunch tray over Big R's face, came off the top rope with a flying elbow, and landed it perfectly, bending the tray over Big R's head and effectively taking him out of the match for good.

Grant, however, was far from being finished; he nailed Crash with the PrepDrop as soon as he turned around. With Razor still lying on the canvas, Grant set up another ladder and started to climb towards the briefcase once again. But halfway up, Grant got his foot caught between two of the rungs and could not move. As "The Gentleman" attempted to free his trapped foot, Razor shocked the crowd by climbing the ropes again and this time hitting a long-range flying cross body-block, hitting the side of the ladder chest-first and tipping it over, where it landed with a sickening crack on Grant's twisted leg in the middle of the ring.

With Big R unconscious and Grant almost having suffered a broken knee, Razor and Crash were free to set up the ladder one last time and climb to the top together, grabbing onto the briefcase at the same time and falling backwards to the mat in relief. All four competitor's faces were covered in blood as Linda A. made her way down to the ring and began to admonish Grant and Russell for losing the match. As soon as Linda turned around, however, she was hit with the Razor Blade, after which she became the recipient of the Cymbal through George Edgerly and Cory Shipley's announce table on the outside. The two victorious Renegades then left the ring carrying the briefcase, leaving referees and officials to tend to Linda Ankorom and what was left of The Favorites.

Adam Taylor defeated Matt Roberts to become the new AGCSWF World Heavyweight champion after receiving outside help from the Renegades. The match started out abruptly, as Adam attacked Matt in the aisle before the bell even rang, but Matt soon regained control, smashing Adam in the face with a steel chair and gorilla press-slamming him in the middle of the ring. Adam showed incredible resolve as he struggled to his feet and nailed Matt with a back elbow off the ropes, followed by a modified ace crusher, but it was not enough to put the champion away.

Next, the fight spilled outside the ring, where Adam, despite his best attempts to escape, was powerbombed straight through the remains of the announcer's table, much to the dismay of George Edgerly. George took his headset off and got in Matt's face, which proved to be a big mistake on his part, as he soon found himself lying unconscious in the ring after being chokeslammed by the big man. This little altercation gave Adam a chance to recover, and when Matt turned around, he was taken out with the Adam Taylor Takedown; however, an exhausted Adam was too drained of energy to try for the cover.

A few moments later, both Adam and Matt were back on their feet, although it took some aid from the ropes for them to do so. Matt rushed at Adam and attempted a clothesline, but missed; he then took Adam out with a big boot to the face and dropped an elbow onto his chest. The World champ was starting to pick up some momentum as he pulled Adam up, hit him with a chokeslam, and prepared to deliver a powerbomb that would presumably end the match right there.

But Razor and Triple-D interjected themselves into the fight, rolling under the ropes and coming face-to-face with Matt, who dropped Adam and went after Razor. Triple-D saved his friend by clocking Matt in the back of the head with a Tag Team title belt, which allowed Razor to grab ahold of Matt and deliver the Razor Burn. At this point, Dane Gammon tried to get involved, but he was stopped in the entranceway by Crash and Ruudboy, who held him back and beat him down, much to Matt's dismay.

Razor and Triple-D held a helpless Matt in place for Adam to hit yet another Adam Taylor Takedown, this one straight backwards onto a metal lunch tray. The puzzled crowd wasn't certain whether to boo or cheer the actions of the Renegades as Adam rolled over onto his opponent and captured the World championship for the first time in several months. Following the pinfall, Adam got to his feet, took the World title belt from the referee, and promptly handed it to Razor, after which the two embraced in a show of mutual respect.

Action Jim, Ruudboy, and Crash came down to the ring and joined Adam, Razor, and Triple-D in their celebration. Adam had turned his back on everyone he held dear by joining the Renegades. The show ended with a shot of the new World Heavyweight champion, Adam Taylor, standing in the ring with the Renegades as the fans booed loudly and Freeze stood at the top of the entrance ramp in shock.
