Southern States Wrestling 2/10/2024 Legacy Episode 55

Southern States Wrestling 2/10/2024 Legacy Episode 55


Lawrence is given a new Legacy belt by the announcer. Unfortunately, it's nearly impossible to hear any of it due to acoustics. Lawrence just walks away after.

SSW Legacy Title - Lawrence (c) vs Wild Bill
 




Both guys are fully dressed here and are over 300lbs. They run at each other and trade shots. Bill rams his back into him in the corner. Lawrence hits some shots then eye rakes him. Lawrence hits corner spears then forearms. Bill hits back with shots to the gut and head.

Bill misses a corner splash then Lawrence does forearms and chops. Bill hits back elbows then shots to the gut. Bill hits a big suplex for 2 then legdrops him. Lawrence jawbreakers him and ddt's him. Lawrence hits downward elbows then elbow drops him.

Lawrence sits on his neck over the 2nd rope then hits a big slam. Lawrence hits a 2nd rope fist drop for 2. Lawrence boots him then does some kind of chin holds on it. Lawrence throws him backwards and clubs his back. Bill hits a belly to belly suplex, basically just rolling to the side for it. Lawrence grabs a weapon out of shirt then punches Bill with it for 2. Bill then clotheslines him with his rope and whips him with it. Bill gets disqualified.

This wasn't good. Both guys are pretty heavy and can't move that well. Their strikes and offense didn't look that good either. They did some decent bumps though.

We see clips of a Wayne Adkins match from last week. Adkins runs into the ref off a leapfrog. Jeff Baker and Mike Mann come down and Mike lariats Wayne. Wayne then gets pinned.


Mike Mann is interviewed. He said he met Wayne Adkins 3 years ago and he's been running from him. He said he had to chase him down during a match to get his hands on him. He says Wayne is one of the worst people in this world. He says he's not a man and will give him the beating he should have given 3 years ago.

The announcer Beau James says Wayne will get even with Mike Mann on 2/24 at the 33rd Anniversary Show. He then says he wants to get even with Lord Murphy Costigan at the event in a lights out, non-sanctioned match. He said he will try to beat some sense into him then. They announce Bam Bam and Danny, The Christian Brothers, will go into the Southern States Wrestling Hall of Fame. We then see clips of The Christian Brothers.


CJ Knight is interviewed. Jeff Baker comes down and interrupts it Jeff Conley. Jeff said it doesn't matter what the fans want. Wayne Adkins then comes down and the 2 parties argue. They set up a match for next time. It was impossible to hear most of this due to sound issues.

Wayne Adkins and CJ Knight vs The Faction (Jeff Baker and Jeff Conley)






Conley is hiptossed by Wayne then Baker is hiptossed and armdragged by Wayne. Baker takes a double back elbow. CJ hits back elbows on Baker but ends up getting knocked over. CJ crossbodies Baker and Baker doesn't budge.

CJ shoulders over Conley. Baker does an atomic drop on CJ then splashes him for 2. Baker backdrops CJ then slams him. Conley dances then elbow drops CJ.

Conley hits a nice lariat on Baker. Baker chops and kicks CJ then splashes him for 2. CJ is pulled back by the hair then CJ takes a double hiptoss. Conley cranks CJ's neck.

Wayne gets the hot tag in and beats up both opponents. Wayne hits corner punches then CJ gets in and hits punches too. Lord Murphy Costigan comes in and beats up CJ and Wayne, causing a disqualification.

The idea was there but the execution always wasn't. CJ's too green right now to really be out there and Wayne had to carry most of the load.


Wayne Adkins is interviewed after. He says him and Mike Mann are going at it one more time. He said it's not about titles, it's about settling scores.

Overall thoughts: It was a rough show with audio issues and less than stellar in-ring work. The booking made sense though. I wouldn't recommend this one.
