ICW: No Holds Barred comes to WrestleMania weekend as part of the IWTV Showcase Of The Independents. ICW:NHB Volume 11 Then & Now is just one of the NHB shows that will be taking place during WrestleMania week but it is the one we’re most looking forward to as not only is New Jack in action but Bruce Santee and Justin Kyle will have their rubber match. Let’s take a look at what’s to come from ICW:NHB’s Then & Now show.
Full Card For ICW:NHB Volume 11 Then & Now
Bruce Santee vs Justin Kyle
Danny Demanto vs Brandon Kirk W/Kasey Kirk
The Rejects (AKIRA, John Wayne Murdoch & Reed Bentley) vs New Jack & Carnage Crew (DeVito & Loc)
Steve Madison vs Lee Moriarty
Dan Maff vs Calvin Tankman
Tony Deppen vs Daniel Garcia
Jake Crist vs Nolan Edward
Jon Davis vs Dom Garrini
Lee Moriarty vs Steve Madison
In a match nobody expected to happen the current IWTV Champion Lee Moriarty steps inside the chains to take on a name that many fans may not be familiar with in Steve Madison. In the 2000s Madison wrestled for WWE, Ring of Honor, and TNA while also competing on the indies for places like Full Impact Pro (FIP) and IPW Hardcore Wrestling. Madison phased himself out of wrestling and hasn’t wrestled since 2019. He now re-emerges to take on one of the hottest names on the U.S. independent scene in Lee Moriarty.
Rubber Match – Justin Kyle vs Bruce Santee
These two fighters have met twice before in an ICW:NHB ring. Both times were in Pitfighter matches. They went 1-1 inside the cage structure and now meet for their rubber match under more normal rules. This match is sure to be different from their previous two clashes but will have added intensity as each warrior will set out to take the win and the lead in their series.
Dan Maff vs Calvin Tankman
This is going to be an interesting clash between the rough and tough violence specialist Dan Maff and the freakishly athletic superheavyweight Calvin Tankman. Tankman has the ability to do things you’d never expect from a man of his size and that could be what helps him win here. Where he could find himself beat is against Maff and his onslaught of violence which could have this one over before Tankman can leave the ground. Add in Maff’s vast experience advantage (22 years for Maff vs 5 for Tankman) and this will be a tough task for Tankman but one that he will be ready for.
New Jack & Carnage Crew ICW:NHB Debut
Update April 5th: AKIRA has announced that he has tested positive for COVID-19 ruling him out of his WrestleMania week appearances. AKIRA has been replaced by deathmatch veteran Neil Diamond Cutter
New Jack makes his ICW:NHB debut and his pro wrestling return in a crazy match involving some of the best deathmatch wrestlers on the scene. The Rejects have been a force in deathmatch wrestling for some time now and the addition of AKIRA has only made them more deadly. The Carnage Crew, most known for their mid-00s run in Ring Of Honor, make up the rest of the match as they too make their IWC:NHB debuts. Although DeVito and Loc wrestled for IWC under an old moniker this will be their first time with the company since it rebranded. With some returning names taking on some modern-day deathmatch icons this match is sure to be crazy
