OVW TV Taping Results
Louisville, KY

-For the first time ever, to my recollection, I
witnessed Jim Cornette marketing an OVW angle toward the internet audience,
so I decided what better time to come back with a report then tonight's
taping. Then angle I am referring to is the long anticipated,
not-capitalized by the WWE angle involving the "Hardcore" Holly
incident with Matt Cappotelli on Tough Enough 3. This weeks results are as
follows:
-Tank Toland & Chris Cage (Adrenaline)
defeated Big Bad John and Mike Mondo (DARK)
-Tough Enough's John Vennigan defeated Seven w/
Synn by DQ thanks to Synn. Post match saw Travis Bane and Seven double team
John as Matt Capotelli made the save.
-Jim Cornette conducted an interview segment
starting out with Mark Mangus discussing the fact that he believes he should
be Number One contender for Johnny Jeter's OVW Heavyweight Belt. Rob Conway
came out to disagree as well as Nick Dinsmore and Matt Morgan. The
originally scheduled Main Event for the night was to be a tag match teaming
Morgan and Dinsmore against Conway and Magnus. Jim Cornette then decided to
put the four into two separate matches with the winners facing each other
next week to determine number one contendership. Cornette announced that
Nick Dinsmore would take on Rob Conway after the commercial break and that
Mark Magnus would face Matt Morgan later on in the show. "Don't you
dare go away!" - Jim Cornette.
-Nick Dinsmore defeated Rob Conway
-Seth Skyfire defeated Mark Bell (DARK)
-Jim Cornette announced to the audience that
footage from the infamous Bob Holly/Matt Capotelli incident that created
some discussion on the internet and elsewhere was just recapped for the
Television audience and then went on to introduce "Hardcore" Holly
to the ring. Jim Cornette that he was going to give Holly the opportunity to
defend his actions regarding the incident since no one has heard his side of
the story. Holly basically said that he saw some potential in Matt during
the filming of Tough Enough 3 and decided to find out if he had what it
takes, and see just how tough he is. Jim Cornette jumped to Matt's defense
acknowledging that the match was merely a practice match and not an all out
brawl. Cornette told Holly that it didn't take much to blatantly blind side
someone. Holly told Cornette that he was trying to teach Matt a valuable
lesson, that being that in this world you must be prepared for anything.
Matt Capotelli made his way to the ring after a few other said words and
really wanted a physical altercation from the looks of things. OVW Amateurs
Mack Johnson and Seth Skyfire had to restrain Matt who was obviously very
upset. Matt stated that it is cowardly to blindside someone and wanted to
fight him right then and there. Unfortunately, or perhaps thankfully for
Matt, Holly stated that he would not fight him this week, but instead wait
for next week, so Matt could think about the beating he was going to receive.
Holly stated that what he will do to Matt won't be considered murder, but
suicide on Matt's behalf for stepping into the ring with Holly. The cameras
cut to a commercial break as Holly continued to taunt the restrained Tough
Enough 3 winner as he made his way to the locker room.
-Aaron 'the Idol' Stevens defeated Mack Johnson
w/ Lucy (DARK)
-Mark Magnus defeated Matt Morgan via DQ after
Morgan used a chain that was meant for Magnus to use.
