Your Irn Brusierweights were at Scotia Pro Wrestling Rio Retribution last night let's get into the action


Match 1 - SPW Defiance Championship Match - Colton Davis(c) v Frazer Girvan


The match started with Colton leaving the Ring and Frazer Telling the ref to go get him which he did Colton returned but no ref and was like well I'm not fighting leaves again and then the ref came back through the curtain and told Cotlon to get i the ring.


the match starts with Colton not allowing Frazer to get any sort of offence and he cuts him off at every opportunity and then Grivan manages to reverse and gets in a few punches and kicks then throws Colton towards the corner.


in the corner, Grvan gets off a few slaps which Colton isn't happy about and returns the favour Colton then goes for the cover and only gets the two and starts talking trash towards Grivan and the crowd.


both men lock up in the middle of the ring and Colton goes to go for the chokeslam and Frazer blocks it and gets out of it before Colton runs threw him and goes for another pin only a two-count.


Frazer built a bit of offence and was about to try for a cover but ran into a close line from Colton and went for the Chokeslam and was successful going for the cover and 3 count and the win


Official Result - Colton Davis Wins and Retains the Defiance Championship


Official Thoughts - This was a very good match and both Competitors showcased their talent this was the 1st time I've seen Frazer Girvan live and looks like a very good talent and would like to see them again. I like how SPW are building Colton Davis and i can't wait to see his next title defence

Whoever wins this match will advance to the final of the women's tournament


the match started with both ladies shaking hands and Love got the upper hand with a few punches then Rhio got into this match this was the 1st time I had seen either of these two women wrestle.


it looked like Rhio was the heel in this match as I had heard how good a talent she was I couldn't cheer for her and you could see that was appreciating the fans chanting for her during this match.


There was a back and forth between both these women and both went for kicks and punches with Love getting the upper hand and going for her finisher and got the 3 count and the win


Official Result - Kirsty Love Wins and advances to the finals

After the match, Rhio hurt herself Love made sure that she was ok which I thought was a nice touch


Official thoughts - This match was very good and it showed what both of these women can do in the ring i had heard a lot of good things about Rhio and was my 1st time seeing her in action and did not disappoint and I am looking forward to seeing her again at another show. Happy for Kirsty and looking forward to seeing who she will be up against in the finals of the tournament
