-Absolute Owner Chandler Biggins came to the ring and announced that for the second consecutive West Park Party Center event, there was bad news about an AIW Title. Biggins called AIW Tag Team Champion, Christian Faith, and Agent Aaron Bauer to ringside. Bauer announced that Faith had suffered a possible career-ending neck injury and Vincent Nothing was seemingly nowhere to be found. Agent Aaron Bauer revealed that the Tag Team Gauntlet would be for the vacant tag titles.

1. Tag Team Gauntlet:

Alpha Beta Duke beat Lights Out

Alpha Beta Duke beat The Jack Of Love (Flexor/Saint)

-During the start of the ABD/DLCS confrontation the lights went out. When the technical issue was resolved, a pair some local wrestlers who were not scheduled to appear on the show snuck in and attacked Nick Belushi. Concerned about his partner, The Duke had turned his attention to the Melee, leaving him vulnerable to Da Latin Crime Syndicate.

Pink Mustaches beat Da Latin Crime Syndicate

Aeroform beat Pink Mustaches

-Aeroform was declared the new AIW Tag Team Champions. However, Agent Aaron Bauer announced that he had booked one more tag team - The Young Studs.

Pedro Deluca asked for Absolute Owner Chandler Biggins to determine a winner. Chandler, however, was busy ejecting the out-of-control fans. After consulting the wrestlers, fans and referees, Chandler couldnt make a decision. It was announced that all four wrestlers will compete at Absolution 5 at West Park Party Center on June 27th with the winner becoming the Absolute Champion.

The AIW “Jack Of All Trios” Tournament is coming to the West Park Party Center, located at 3556 West 130th Street in Cleveland, Ohio on Friday, April 9th and Saturday, April 10th. Let’s cut to the chase – the stakes of AIW’s first ever trios tournament couldn’t be higher, as the winning trio will be entered into the 2010 CHIKARA King Of Trios tournament. Now, the Absolute Intense Wrestling roster is comprised of less than 48 wrestlers, so we’ve turned to some familiar faces from around the country to see if they’ve got what it takes for another shot at glory. All of the teams and the full lineup will be announced over the next 8 weeks via the AIW Twitter (http://www.twitter.com/aiwrestling) every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday.

The latest release on AIW Home Video is Dragged To Hell. This event featured the Absolute Opportunity where several new faces made their debut for AIW. This event also features the last match of then Absolute Champion Jimmy DeMarco before his departure from the company. Head over to the AIW Online Store right now to get your copy. While you are there why not get your tickets for AIW's next show, Gauntlet For The Gold 5 which takes place on February 19th, 2010 at the West Park Party Center.

-Facade came out before his match with Marion Fontaine and told the crowd that Chandler Biggins forced him to defend his Intense Division Title against Chris Dickinson at "Nightmare Before Xmas 3" under unfair circumstances. Facade insisted that he was injured and refused to work his way up the ranks for a shot at the Intense Division Title.

3) Marion Fontaine defeated Facade with a jackknife pin after Facade collapsed in the ring. Facade was favoring his allegedly injured foot throughout the majority of the contest.

4) Alpha Beta Duke (Nick Belushi and The Duke) defeated Simply Dynamite (Shawn Blaze and TJ Dynamite) by pinfall after a Rikishi Driver. Nick Belushi punched Shawn Blaze in the back of the head when Blaze attempted to break up the pinfall. Shawn Blaze needed to be helped to the back and was taken to a local medical facility.

INTENSE TITLE: CHRIS DICKINSON VS. GRAN AKUMA!

After his fast rise in AIW with beating Eric Alverado, The Necro Butcher, and Façade, the current Intense Champ, Chris Dickinson has yet to find his match.  Gran Akuma comes to AIW with a reputation of being one of the most dangerous and brutal athletes in Chikara and Dragon Gate USA.  Akuma has even made people puke in the ring on two occasions due to his punishment. Dickinson and Akuma match up perfectly. Both have styles, size and ability in common. Akuma has the advantage in the fact he’s been in more high profile matches than Dickinson and thus has more experience. Will Akuma leave as AIW Intense Champ? Or will Dickinson “Bring The Ruckus” and add another body in his path?

AIW TAG TITLES: FAITH IN NOTHING VS. JIGSAW/HALLOWICKED!

With their second title reign in progress, Faith In Nothing come into BRING THE RUCKUS with the titles and hopefully their problems behind them. Faith In Nothing who have been at odds since they lost the titles in September put their differences aside to defeat The Young Studs for the title at NIGHTMARE BEFORE X-MAS 3 in a Last Man Standing match. Agent Aaron Bauer claims that his team has put the problems in the past and is ready for any challenge. Accepting the challenge is two Chikara veterans in Jigsaw and Hallowicked. While not a regular tag team, both have resumes that speak for themselves. Both have made appearances in AIW before at HELL ON EARTH 3 and both are two of the most requested wrestlers to once again appear in AIW. Their unique styles are something that Faith In Nothing isn’t accustomed to and will they be able to overcome to retain the tag titles? Also will their problems rise again or are they deader than The Young Stud’s latest title reign?

DOUBLE EDGE SWORD REMATCH: AIW WOMENS TITLE: HAILEY HATRED VS. JEFFERSON SAINT!

Last time AIW was at Ghostly Manor with DOUBLE EDGE SWORD, Saint had Hatred beat for the AIW Women’s Title. After the ref discovered brass knucks under his arm, the match was restarted and Hailey secured a victory. However, Chest Flexor and Saint attacked Hailey after the match and like multiple times before and since, left her laying. This is the match that proves everything. Saint, wanting to prove a man is better than a woman, wants to gain the AIW Women’s Title and then vacate it once and for all. Hailey meanwhile wants to prove once and for all that her never ending battle to prove her place on the AIW roster is worthwhile. Will Saint be man enough to win the AIW Womens Title? Or will Hailey once again prove her dominance?

SPECIAL ATTRACTION: LUIS DIAMANTE VS. LINCE DORADO!

When the Homeless Handicap Connection were feuding with Da Latin Crime Syndicate in early 2009, they needed help. They reached out to a fellow Latino. During ABSOLUTION 4, Lince Dorado joined forces with them to take on Da Latins. While coming up on the short end of the stick that night, Lince had a problem with Luis Diamante. When booked for BRING THE RUCKUS, Lince asked for Luis one on one. The match is set, and while Da Latin Crime Syndicate members K.Fernadez and Joey “The Snake” Diamante are still nursing injuries from their brutal Fans Bring The Weapons match last month, you have to figure they will be factors if allowed to be at ringside.  Will Lince’s unique highflying ability be enough to overcome Da Latins? Or will Da Latins once again use numbers to their favor?

HELL ON EARTH 5 RETURN MATCH:  AEROFORM VS. LIGHTS OUT  VS. TEAM BEYOND!

Following their epic battle at HELL ON EARTH 5, fans have demanded a rematch between these teams. While Aeroform (Flip Kendrick/Louis Lyndon)  came out on top in the first battle,   Team Beyond (Chase Burnett/Zane Silver) and Lights Out (Ben Fruith/Corey Winters) are quickly rising in AIW’s ranks. This match will go a long way in putting the winner in AIW tag title contention.  Who will come out on top?

You can now get your tickets in the AIW Online store for the "Nightmare Before X-Mas 3" event featuring The Franchise Shane Douglas! This event will be AIW's long waited return to Peabody's in downtown Cleveland on E.21st street. Get your tickets right now for Sunday Night December 20th!
