Hello everyone. As we stated at the end of the last newsletter, there’s tons going on trying to get the top 10 situated as soon as possible so the champs can go on to defend their championships. A few notes: The HWF World Champion Randy Orton actually lost a match (by DQ) so he has a loss to his record. CSWA World Champion Booker T is still undefeated and the CSWA person with the closest record is Devon Dudley with 7 wins and one loss. Devon is on fire. Also of note, it has been decided that as soon as everyone on each roster has 5 matches wrestled under their belts, the top 10 will finally be completed (instead of waiting for everyone to wrestle 10 matches).
Jay Lethal then came down and tried to figure out what the Kraken was up to. Kraken attacked him and that led to the next match. This match went a little longer with the Kraken taking control early but Black Machismo battled back quickly. Lethal connected with the flying elbow but not good enough for a 3. The Kraken nailed a chop block to Lethal’s leg and Jay went down. The Kraken locked in the figure four but Lethal made it to the ropes. The Kraken locked it in again but this time held on to the ropes. Lethal had no choice but to tap out. The Kraken wins another match. He went for a chair again but the ref managed to get Lethal out of the ring before any more damage could be inflicted.
Then the North American Champion Carlito came out and told the Kraken that if he could beat him here, right now, in this non-title match, he would grant him a title shot. The Kraken accepted. Carlito started off with a clothesline. The Kraken answered with a kick to the groin. Carlito came back with one of his own and then Kraken tossed him into the corner. Another groin kick from the Kraken and Carlito crumbles. Carlito goes for an arm bar and twist and gets tossed out of the ring for a 7 count. The Kraken then nails a piledriver for a 2 count. A sleeperhold from the challenger and then an attempted pin results in a one count for the Kraken. Kraken hits another groin kick, a pin attempt and a 2 count. Kraken hits a piledriver and a pin attempt but only gets 2. Kraken is tossed from the ring but is back in at 7. The Kraken hits another piledriver and with his feet on the ropes, gets the 1-2-3. Kraken is now the #1 contender for the North American title.
This brings out the X-Division Champion Kurt Angle. Angle states that he is already the #1 contender as he is a title holder at that already qualifies him as such. Angle said that no one gets a title match before him. Kraken then motioned for Angle to come to the ring. Angle jumped at the chance. Angle says that this match will only have a 15 minute time limit. Kraken must defeat him if he wants to become the true #1 contender. The match went to a full 15 minutes and ended in a draw. Kurt still won’t back down. He says that the Kraken can have another chance later and he walked away.

John Morrison def. Ted Dibiasi via CO
Elijah Burke def. Goldust (his first win)
Charlie Haas got his rematch with the Kraken. The Kraken still hasn’t given us any reason as to why he’s doing all this. I would assume that it is leading up to something. Before the match officially started, the Kraken took a steel chair and nailed Haas in the leg with it. The bell finally rang and Haas was already at a disadvantage. At the five minute mark, the Kraken locked in a figure four in the middle of the ring. Haas, already in a world of hurt, had to give up. The Kraken then got the chair again and put Haas’ leg in it. He went to the top rope, jumped off and landed on the chair. It looks like Charlie’s leg is severely injured but luckily is not broken. The refs had to come in and restrain the Kraken from doing any more damage. Haas was taken out on a stretcher. It also appears that the Kraken has been wrestling on both CSWA and HWF shows. William Regal has agreed that the Kraken can go after any title.
The CSWA now officially has had everyone wrestle at least 5 matches. The best records are currently held by the World Champion Booker T and the Kraken (6 wins, 0 losses – CSWA and 3 wins, 1 loss in the HWF). The worst record is held by Goldust (0 wins, 6 losses).
HWF qualifiers:
Undertaker def. Big Show via triangle choke submission
Donnie B def. Santino Marella
Mick Foley def. Cody Rhodes via CO
Abyss def. Stevie Richards
Undertaker def. Donnie B
Abyss def. Mick Foley
Undertaker def. Abyss
Big Show def. Negronomicon
The Kraken def. Negronomicon via the Kraken Crush submission
Bubba Ray Dudley def. Cody Rhodes
Chris Masters def. Santino
Cody Rhodes def. Negronomicon (his first win)
Stevie Richards def. Negronomicon (his first win)
This leaves the Negronomicon as the only person in the HWF without a win.
With all wrestlers now having wrestled their obligatory 5 matches, we now have the top 10.
