Embracing Obscurity

Frankie Pickard vs. TJ Sykes


Pickard really impressed me in the amazing Gacy match and that Gulak & Tracy tag, so I decided to check random three matches of his. I’m not feeling robbed of time at all because this was a borderline great little match with super smart body of work. Sykes has the power advantage, but Pickard just kept attacking his legs in a compelling Bret Hart fashion, they made it a story of the match and never abandoned it, I’m such a sucker for tight, focused matches. This was good.

***3/4

Chaz Glamrock vs. Frankie Pickard


Another sweet little match, another tight legwork match that was sold well. Chaz plays his gimmick of an outdated throwback rockstar in such a lovely fashion.

***1/2

2/3 FALLS for Medal of Valor Championship: Frankie Pickard vs. Conor Claxton ©


Even though the match was mostly spent on the mat with some really swank and natural work (that included limbs), the booking prevented it from being good, it was kind of messy and all over the place. The product was good, it just needed better packaging.

**3/4
