Hawkeye Pro Wrestling Infamous #19 was a thrilling event that showcased some of the best talent in the industry. The main event saw Masato Yoshino retain his HPW Openweight Title against a mystery opponent, who turned out to be Susumu Yokosuka, a former tag team partner and rival of Yoshino. The match was a fast-paced and high-flying affair, with both men trading near falls and signature moves. Yoshino finally put Yokosuka away with a Splash Mountain Powerbomb, a devastating move that he rarely uses.
Earlier in the night, Tyler Bate made a bold announcement after successfully defending his HPW Caged Medallion for the sixth time. He declared that he would challenge for the HPW World Title if he could get one more defense, setting his sights on the top prize in the company. Bate has been on a roll since winning the medallion, which grants him a title shot at any time and place of his choosing, but he has also been a target for many other wrestlers who want to take it from him.
The tag team division was also in the spotlight, as two matches determined the fate of the HPW Tag Titles. In the first match, Prince Devitt and Ryusuke Taguchi defeated Cesaro and Sheamus and Davey Richards and Eddie Edwards in a triple threat match that featured some amazing teamwork and athleticism. Devitt and Taguchi earned themselves a spot in the next match, where they faced the champions Matt Jackson and Nick Jackson, as well as Bobby Eaton and Dennis Condrey, who had won a number one contender's match earlier. The match was chaotic and unpredictable, with all six men showing why they are among the best tag teams in the world. In the end, Eaton and Condrey pulled off a huge upset by pinning Matt Jackson after hitting him with their finisher, the Double Goozle.
The HPW TV Title also changed hands, as Kushida defeated Love Machine in a match that showcased their contrasting styles. Kushida used his speed and technical skills to counter Love Machine's power and charisma. Kushida managed to lock in his signature submission hold, the Hoverboard Lock, and forced Love Machine to tap out, ending his reign as TV champion.
Hawkeye Pro Wrestling Infamous #19 was a night full of surprises and excitement, and set the stage for some intriguing developments in the future.
