Death Match Down Under Crowns First Tag Team Champions
Today at the Arrow on Swanson in Carlton, Victoria, Australia, Deathmatch Downunder crowned their first ever tag team champions. The upstart promotion, which is the only promotion on the Australian indie scene that’s known for their death matches, crowned the champions as a result of their tag team tournament that came to a conclusion at today’s “Not Here To Fuck Spiders” as the event was titled.
Misspent Youth (Aysha & Murdoch) defeated Blacklisted (FOX & JXT) in the finals of the tournament which started at last month’s Smashing Sandcastles. Both teams also fought in a semi-final match earlier in the night.
In addition to crowning new tag team champions, today’s show also featured a deathmatch between Joel Bateman and Atlas Whittaker that Bateman survived after both wrestlers got up close and personal with several light tubes. Also in action at Not Here To Fuck Spiders was Kid Valiant, Zane Zodiac, Hector Jones, Mitchell Wright, Jake Navara, Magnificent Mitchell, Caveman Ugg, Tommy Knight, Callen Butcher, Michael Weaver, Zuzu The Clown, Gweedo, Mike Kaos, York, Tyson Baxter, Shazza McKenzie, Gore, and Ritchie Taylor. Deathmatch Downunder is planning to kick off a tournament to crown their first ever Heavyweight Champion next month.
