In a thrilling turn of events on the latest episode of NWA Powerrr (Season 25, Episode 9), a new dynasty was born as the Slimeballz claimed the prestigious NWA United States Tag Team Championship. Winning against the Southern Six, this match unfolded under quite controversial circumstances that had viewers on the edge of their seats.
The match was marked by an unexpected twist: despite Alex Taylor being sidelined due to an injury, acting NWA president Joe Cazana made a contentious decision that Kerry Morton would have to defend the titles solo against his opponents, Sage Chantz and Tommy Rant.
However, rather than feeling daunted by the odds stacked against him, Morton showcased remarkable skill and composure. He demonstrated a strategic approach, methodically dismantling his rivals with precise moves. In a moment that added a touch of humor to the intensity, Morton even playfully grabbed Rant’s tongue during the fray, illustrating his confidence and control.
As the match progressed, Rant eventually turned the tide with a spirited hot tag, delivering a series of powerful moves that included a back body drop, punches, a headbutt, and a running senton that sent shockwaves through the crowd. Just when it seemed Morton had regained full control over Chantz, his arrogance led to a critical mistake. In an attempt to execute a vertical suplex, Chantz cleverly slipped out from behind and surprised Morton with a swift roll-up. The referee counted—1, 2, 3! The audience erupted in cheers, celebrating the unexpected victory.
The Slimeballz received congratulations from EC3, who noted their unique journey from the Exodus Pro Wrestling scene. His words were colorful and vivid: "I can’t tell if I discovered them or if it’s divine retribution for my past misdeeds, but the Slimeballz are irrefutable proof that chaos, goo, and a shared commitment to outrageousness can lead to triumph.
He recounted how Slimeball Sage was found hissing in a dumpster behind a veterinary clinic, while SLIMETIME Tommy burst onto the scene like a vibrant Kool-Aid man, possibly after rummaging through some unsavory locations. Together, they bring a wild and electrifying energy to the ring, characterized by their unabashed style and questionable hygiene. They embody a thrilling combination of raucous entrances and high-energy antics that delight fans.
From their humble beginnings brawling in basements to the distinctly messy moments captured in promotional shoots, the Slimeballz have carved out a path from the dirt-indie scene straight to the NWA US Tag Team Championship. Their journey reflects not only their own hard work but also mirrors a chaotic, yet authentic evolution within the world of professional wrestling.
"SLIMETIME is forever! I'm proud of you, my wonderfully bizarre friends," EC3 concluded.
