Who Won the 2017 PWG Battle of Los Angeles Tournament?

Everyone loves tournaments! We’re currently in the middle of the first Mae Young Classic but there’s another major tournament going on out in California. Pro Wrestling Guerrilla is holding its annual Battle of Los Angeles Tournament. This is probably the most prestigious independent wrestling tournament in the world and its three night structure features a who’s who of wrestling talent. We’ve got you covered with all the results.

The tournament is a three night structure with twenty four entrants. There are three eight person mini tournaments with the three winners facing off in a three way elimination final. Here are the results from night one, which consisted of first round matches and a non-tournament tag team match, courtesy of Wrestlinginc.com:

* Rey Fenix defeated Rey Horus
* Penta el Zero M defeated Matt Sydal
* Zack Sabre Jr. defeated Jonah Rock

The rest of the tournament, including the quarter-finals, semi-finals and finals, plus a major tag match with other tournament participants. Here’s the rest, again from Wrestlinginc.com:

Quarter-Finals
* Ricochet defeated Dezmond Xavier
* Travis Banks defeated Marty Scurll
* Keith Lee defeated Donovan Dijak
* Ray Fenix defeated Zack Sabre Jr.
* Jeff Cobb defeated Sammy Guevara
* Matt Riddle defeated Penta el 0M

Semi-Finals
* Ricochet defeated Travis Banks
* Keith Lee defeated Ray Fenix
* Jeff Cobb defeated Matt Riddle

* Chuck Taylor, Flamita, Joey Janela, Mark Haskins, and Flash Morgan Webster defeated Brian Cage, Sami Callihan, Trevor Lee, WALTER, and Jonah Rock

Finals
* Ricochet defeated Keith Lee and Jeff Cobb
* Post-match, Ricochet said he’s coming for Chuck Taylor’s PWG Title before moving on to bigger and better things.

Opinion: Ricochet continues to be one of the hottest names in wrestling and it wouldn’t surprise me to see him head to New Japan full time or eventually sign with WWE. I really can’t imagine Lucha Underground lasting that much longer but it’s cool to see someone as talented as him getting the attention that he deserves.
