GM takes the Challenge

The UCB Cagematch has had a new champion Roo Roo West aka The Moment in the house with a two win streak and tonight they played for a hat trick as we like to call it at the ole' cagematch. Tonight they took a brand new challenger, Goodbye Mailbox was ready to fight from the top, they even came with guns that shot word bullets. This cagematch was going to be a duel, a duel between two improv who want to be crowed champion.

Goodbye Mailbox going first, after losing the coin toss, stepped on stage and started to make fireworks. The audience was waiting for Goodbye Mailbox to hit it out of the park and if you were sitting in the bleachers you may have just caught a fly ball, but they hit it right out of the park.

Our champions Roo Roo West aka The Moment, were one short this week due to Brett Gelman being sick with the H1N1 virus aka Swine Flu, but being a man short wouldn't stop these champs from putting on an awesome show. The Moment was set in an apartment bedroom right after some quick intercourse. The audience continued their twenty power laugh through out their show.

The votes were collected and counted and a winner was determined. That winner would be... and still champions Roo Roo West aka The Moment!

See them return on Dec 2nd, as the champs have thanksgiving week off, but there is still a match Wednesday night, Nov 25th as Bright & Shiny and Lawrence of Arkansas battle it out for a chance to face Roo Roo West aka The Moment on Dec 2nd. This show is also going to be hosted by Cagematch favorites Betsy Sodaro and Toni Ramos.

Make your reservations here.

Time to Man Up!

With a new champion, Roo Roo West aka The Moment in the house, they are about to face some "manly" competition, cause tonight they are going to have to face Man Up! The challengers are coming right off of a month residency at TNT and they are ready to play for the title. The Moment was ready for their next opponent and ready to prove they are here to stay!

Man Up! went first and proved they were ready to walk away with that championship belt, but little did they know UCB Cagematch doesn't have a championship belt.

Roo Roo West aka The Moment, took the stage and once again did their monoscene set at a park near the weird people who play chess all day. Do those people have jobs?

The audience would have a tough decision to face when it came to voting unlike in the 2000, 2004, or 2008 elections, but vote they did away and they determined a winner and still champion Roo Roo West aka The Moment!

Will Roo Roo West aka The Moment go on a winner streak, find out on Wednesday at 11pm at UCBTLA.

Florida 2000 Do-Over!!!


It's November, time for shorter days, longer nights, turkey, stuffing, and the most intense cagematch in town! On November 4th, Roo Roo West aka The Moment would take the stage for a once in a lifetime chance of going head to head with cagematch champs Jamboree (6-0). Jamboree on a hot streak can do no wrong in the eyes of the audience.

Both teams came out ready to cagematch! Jamboree going first would have to set the bar high and high they did, making it a tough act to follow. Roo Roo West aka The Moment came and blew the top off the lid by doing a mono-scene set inside a bar during girls night! The audience loved both teams, but what would they do when it came time to vote?

The votes were counted and counted again. Then counted one more time, then Harrison, the host, screwed up and had to count one more time in order to determine the winner for the night. After all of the re-counts the results came down to one vote. The winner will be returning the following week and that winner is... Roo Roo West aka The Moment!

Check Cagematch out every Wednesday night at 11pm at UCBLA!!!

Return of the Jamboree!


On October 28th, our returning champions, Jamboree took on the Challengers Slave Leia. Slave Leia most popular for her role in Return of the Jedi come to UCB to see if they could stop the power train known as Jamboree. Both team battled as if it was a fight for Endor, but which would the force be with? Well after the votes were collected and counted, the force was with Jamboree who will return to face a brand new challenger the following week!

Update for you!

Cagematch still hasn't stopped rocking and here is your update to prove it!

October 7th
Killer featuring Chuck Ford hit the stage. Chuck Ford a Hollywood Bowl enthusiast and improv historian wasn't a spectator this week whatsoever, he was on stage and challenger on new cagematch champion Jamboree going for their third win! Jamboree had a special guest Charlie Sanders stepping in for Ben Schwartz who wasn't there this Wednesday. Killer killed with their set and then Jamboree came on and did a monoscene, blowing improv doors off their hinges. When the vote arrived officially sealed, Jamboree would return as champions one more week.

October 14th
Magic was a brewing this week with Wizard St. Cloud, with former cagematch host Will McLaughlin in the audience it was like old times, except this time magic would be happening. Would their magical spells and potions be enough to stop the mighty train known as Jamboree? With Ben back in the saddle they would have to come out swinging and swinging they did like little kids having a great old time! The audience even determined that their scene that took place at In-n-Out was good enough to be granted cagematch winners!

October 21th
Are you ready for your worse Pudmare? Well our challengers, Pudmare were ready to give you one. Would Jamboree be ready? Jamboree, notorious for winning the coin toss, won the toss again choosing to go second. In a two person vs two person team, each team would build a foundation for improv to be built upon and judged. Judge is exactly what the audience did an gave the crown of championship to Jamboree.

On October 28th Jamboree will have to face a sci-fi fantasy when they square off against Slave Leia! Make your reservations today!
