Hi all, I'm Clint and last night I went to The Hangar in Wolverhampton for Over The Top wrestling. The venue has seen a lot of top talent over the years including Will Ospreay, Orange Cassidy, British Strong Style, Lucha Bros and Swerve Strickland amongst others so had a lot to live up to and they did.
Robbie X Vs Scotty Davis
A high flying opener was won by the King of the Cruiserweights as he hit Scotty with a fantastic looking cutter for the 3 count.
⭐️⭐️⭐️1/2
Sunshine Machine Vs Lykos Gym
Ring announcer Jade announced that we were going to split the crowd in half and the winning half would get 4 balls thrown out to them with £50 in. It helped create an atmosphere. I was on the Sunshine Machine side but sadly for my bank account it was Lykos Gym who won this one.
⭐️⭐️⭐️1/4
Big Damo Vs Charlie Sterling
This match had a lot of interference by Sammy D behind the referees back. You’d think ref’s would smarten up by now 😉 The match was marred by technical issues as the speakers at the back had static noise getting louder and louder. At 1st I thought someone was coming out. It got so loud everyone moved from the seats as it seemed in danger of exploding. The wrestlers went to the back. They came back out but Sterling just left and punched the speakers in anger much to the crowds delight.

Grizzled Young Veterans Vs Dereiss and Omari (0121)
The GYV got a mixed reception as a lot of the crowd were happy to see them back. Gibson got on the mic and soon (no pun intended) brought back the mic skills he’s well known for. No ring rust for the GYV who picked up the win.
⭐️⭐️⭐️1/4
Defy World Title
KENTA Vs Luke Jacobs
This was a hard hitting contest that KENTA was mainly in control of. He finished Jacobs off with a GTS at the 3rd attempt
⭐️⭐️⭐️1/2
Session Moth Martina/Millie McKenzie Vs Emersyn Jayne/Kanji
Session Moth and Millie are mainstays of OTT but it was great to see Emersyn Jayne who has a tremendous upside. Martina seemed to injure her ankle towards the end as medics checked on her but they still managed to get the W.
⭐️⭐️⭐️
Jon Moxley Vs Trent Seven
This was the 1 that sold a chunk of tickets. Mox got a huge reaction as he entered from the back of the Hangar making his way around and through the crowd. As expected, this was a brawl then went all around the venue. They battled through the seats with Seven getting suplexed on the ramp.
Back in the ring, the leader of the Seven Nation Army went through a table propped in the corner before Moxley had chopsticks banged into his cranium.
The drawing pins made an appearance next with both men taking bumps into them. Trent kicked out of a Death Rider at 1 but a second a couple of minutes later put him away.
They shook hands afterwards as the crowd went home happy. Especially one female fan who had Seven wipe blood on her Trent towel before Moxley signed her book.
