Yeah, the babykilling angle is right *down* there as well... I mean I love Portia and Allison to death but that's treading too close to a WWE storyline for my liking as well as just being in bad taste. The best comment I heard about that whole angle was when Portia came out to the preggers Allison & Valerie was "She wants to be their babysitter".
P.S. The results for the AAW Sparkle matches were the aforentioned Egotistico Fantastico with NOT Bryce Remsburg defeated "Straight From The 80s" Jordan McEntire and the team of Brett Gakiya & CJ Esparza "Zero Gravity" defeating "The Old School Wrecking Crew" Knight Wagner & Hunter Matthews.

Based on Greg's report we now know why Sweeney showed up. It looks like Sara's rematch will be in ROH between this taping and the next one which will most likely be in April 2009.
Here's to hoping the rematch makes it as a DVD extra on a future SHIMMER DVD (Vol. 22 or Vol. 23 maybe) and that Sweeney never shows his face in SHIMMER again.

But she's with Sweeney anyway in ROH so of course when she gets her rematch he'd be there, that's a given. I mean I can understand the need for "cross-promotion" with Shimmer going into hibernation but still... he doesn't belong here. Wasn't there something mentioned somewhere (and I apologize if I have all the facts wrong. I know I've read this somewhere but if it's true or not, not sure..) that Dave commented about why he didn't appear on camera or have male managers was because it takes the focus off the product which is WOMEN'S wrestling?
NO SWEENEY IN SHIMMER!!!!!!
Please?

Greg's report mentions that Portia may have a broken jaw .. If true any idea how it come about or who may have caused it?

Ashley Lane (or was it Neveah?...can't recall) kicked her like a football punt. It was really really ugly.

She could get the shot, but Serena Deeb might also be brought in to ROH, since she was promised a title shot. So at least some storylines have been established for a couple shows.

I love Bryce, he is my fave Ref ever but why are we putting him over talent? We need a Portia/Bryce match where the Ninja can brutalize him. About using the belts to get the "CurtainJerkers" over...yes, Belts can be used to get talent over if the Belt is established. With new belts on a team that is not over at all, kills the momentium of the belt.

After perusing the various comments about yesterday's show, I think the word that immediately springs to mind is surreal.

Cheerleader Melissa defeated Jennifer Blake. A good, strong match. One fun spot saw Blake laying over a guardrail, with Melissa slamming another one over her. Melissa won with the Air Raid Crash. Good Girl

Ok i am a fan of shimmer however looking at these results, i think they have taken a step backwards. Firstly i believe they have drop the ball on the tag team belts they put them on the greenest girls out of the lot who haven't done that much for shimmer when you have the likes of the experience, Rain and Jetta heck every one in the match up was better. I would have put it on the experience instant creditabity. Secondly i don't believe that ariel would win a match out of Kong/melissa/Martinez and neither have i any desire to watch ariel in the main event IMHO is isnt good enough. Thirdly Serena Deeb defeated Sara Del Rey again i don't buy it. I am disappointed, i normally harp on about shimmer on the web sites i visit how good it is and how respected able i was hoping to write a nice piece about the tag team champions showing that shimmer is the best US female promotion and now i can't Maybe you're right,and maybe not. Just 6 hours ago I was disappointing the victory of Ashley Lane and Nevaeh and I was really sad and nervous because The Experience should have won,but not because they're my favourite team,but just because they have much more credibility.I mean,now Ashley Lane have destroyed Lexie Fyfe and Malia Hosaka,The International Home Wrecking Crew and the Canadian Ninjas.Wich Team is gonna beat this two girls?LuFisto and Jennifer Blake?The Pink Ladies?Wich credibility whould they have?You can also take it as they have the most too lose. Look at Sara well loved before winning the title and her lack of a real good personality outside of Saraberg people quickly got tired of her with the belt the same thing could happen to Lane and Neveah and everyone I talked to about it said it was the most random decision that could have been made.

Bryce didn't go over anybody...Portia bounced off the ropes and was charging at Danger and Bryce stopped her. That's all there was to it. Ashley Lane (or was it Neveah?...can't recall) kicked her like a football punt. It was really really ugly. sigh...poor Portia, she deserves better than jobbing to stiffy McCurtinjerker and a Ref. I love Bryce, he is my fave Ref ever but why are we putting him over talent? We need a Portia/Bryce match where the Ninja can brutalize him.

Sorry to see my favorite, Cat Power once again defeated. Glad to see Ms. Natural one for one on her debut.
