After several venue changes, including one final change the night before, the world record-breaking Seven-Hour Iron Man Match ended up being contested at the home of EPIC WAR owner Gary Yap in Murrieta, pitting Mike "Rockstar" Cordova against "Dangerous J" Jaysin Strife. The match started at approximately 1:14PM PST (that's my time; the official timekeeper's time was a few minutes different, I believe). The falls occurred as follows:

Winner: Jaysin Strife (14-13)

There's not much I can really say about this. It's kind of one of those things you had to be there to see. The entire video will be online very soon, I'm sure, but I don't think even seeing it on YouTube would be quite the same.

To be perfectly honest, I didn't expect much out of this, and I certainly didn't think these two would go all seven hours, but they actually managed to wrestle (and be entertaining, at that) for the duration of the time limit. Whatever your personal feelings about anybody involved, they deserve a tremendous amount of respect after what they went through.

Mais de 20 dias seguidos sempre a combater! 2 grandes equipas de wrestling com 10 pessoas cada! O maior combate tag team de sempre! Com lutadores a dormir ao lado do ringue e tudo! Tags feitos às horas mais estrambólicas da noite! Ao fim das 490 horas, quem tivesse mais pins e/ou submissões ganhava!

Agora a sério, como é que eles aguentaram e como é que houve gente a ver isso tudo?
