ICW: 4th Annual Square Go Review

First show of the year aye? How to make as big an impact as possible? How to set the tone for what could be the, no, WILL be the biggest year in ICW history? The answers lay within the 4th Annual Square Go event. Those answers were pretty neat indeed. As we entered the ABC, there was a sight to behold. Suspending high above the ring, engulfing the disco ball, was the steel cage that would play host to one of the most personal and highly anticipated matches in British wrestling history. BT Gunn and Wolfgang's destination was set to go, but they would have to wait a wee while to get in and down to business. Who would go on to win the Square Go, and have a contract for a heavyweight title match at any time of their choosing? We would have to wait until the top of the show to find that out. Who would come out victorious in the biggest match of Chris Renfrew's career, when he cashes in the 2014 Square Go contract against Drew Galloway? We'll get to that in just a bit. First up was the Square Go tradition. The Iron Man match. Joe Coffey has embodied the title of being ICW's Iron Man, and threw out an open challenge to anyone in the world of wrestling to answer it. The time for the challenger to make himself known was now...

4th Annual Square Go - The Odds

Seeing as I tend to enjoy a flutter every now and again, I thought it would be fun to draw up some odds for the ICW Square Go on the 25th. The odds will be compiled based on how good a year each wrestler had in 2014, championship reigns, big match wins, all the important stuff really! As I said, it is just a bit of fun, but if you want to take advantage of some cracking prices, you can give me a mail and I can organize it for ye, although there's literally 0 chance of you being paid out if your bet wins. So I can't stress enough - FUN ONLY, DO NOT TRY AND GIVE ME YER MONEY. I won't take future title shots into account (Joe Coffey in particular) and it'll be split into "Favorites" and "Best of the rest" because there's no such thing as having an outsider's chance in this match. The "Surprise entrant" odds are the chances I think of them making an appearance in the match, not of winning it.

ICW: Square Go Preview

At the time of writing this, we're now just shy of a fortnight from ICW's first show of the year - the fourth annual Square Go. ICW's take on the Royal Rumble, only it isn't predictable every single year. Just look at last year's Square Go for example. Grado seemed to overcome all the odds, when eliminating Chris Renfrew and seemingly winning the Square Go match itself. Everyone exploded, it was probably the best moment in Grado's career... for all of about ten seconds. With the officials preoccupied with making sure Wolfgang and BT Gunn were alright on the floor, they missed Grado throwing Renfrew over the top rope, and when he realized that for himself, Renfrew slid back in and sent Grado over, being called the official winner of the match. An iconic moment for ICW in itself, it is only fitting that it should directly affect this year's event, with Renfrew's Square Go contract being cashed in exactly one year after his famous victory - the night that the contract expires - against Drew Galloway. On top of that match being set in stone, we have ICW's first ever Steel Cage match between bitter enemies BT Gunn and Wolfgang, as well as the Square Go match itself, which will determine the next man (or woman) who will have the luxury of lying in wait with a title match at their disposal any time they want it.
