Hello fans and
welcome back to our newsletter. The
Great American Bash is now just a mere 6 days away and has completely sold
out. For those not attending that show,
be sure to catch it on PPV. As Jim Ross
used to say, it’s gonna be a slobberknocker.
Tonight’s show
is taking place from Augusta, GA, the hometown for notable celebrities such as
Singer James Brown, actor Laurence Fishburne and most importantly, our GM Hulk
Hogan.
Hogan starts the
show off. “Hello to the greatest fans in
the world!” He receives a pop. “The Hulkster is here with the HWF and CSWA,
brother, to begin our road to the Great American Bash. There will be an action packed card tonight
with MY CWO getting some in ring time.
So WHATCHA GONNA DO, WHEN THE HULKSTER AND THE CWO RUN WILD ON
YOU?” About half of the audience died
off. Hulk stared at them and then left
the stage.
The first match
on the card are 719 Cartel members the Mexicali Flyers, Malo Leche de
Mantequilla and Rey Rey taking on the Wyatt family (Bray, Truth, SW and
Centurion). We expected this to be a
good match but the former NJWW tag team champions, the Mexicali Flyers, looked
horrible in the ring. It appears
someone’s been sitting around eating too many snickers bars and ice cream. The match ended in Double DQ after the A-Team
ran down and interfered in the match. It
was actually Alberto Del Rio sucker punching the Super Warrior that resulted in
the call. Hogan came out and said the
Flyers looked so bad, he was taking them off the circuit and sending them to go
get help. The Flyers ended up jumping into
the crowd and left.
Super Warrior
was not happy so he called in his chip for the title match against Alberto for
the North American title. ADR looked to
Hogan who said “Don’t worry, you’ve got this.”
Del Rio went to the ring for his match.
In 15 minutes, SW gets the first fall after hitting ADR with a Super
Powerslam. In 26 minutes, Del Rio traps
SW in the rolling cross armbreaker and SW taps out. There is one final fall with 19 minutes
left. The third fall saw interference
from Austin Aries who, while ADR was distracting the ref, hits the Super
Warrior with a steel chair. Del Rio
executes a lifting German Suplex and makes the cover. Alberto Del Rio retains his title in a 56
minute bout.
Next up, Brie
Bella comes out and says that she is actually in line for the next title shot,
not Cactus Jackie. Brie says she is
challenging Jackie right here and now for that Diva’s title shot at the
Bash. Jackie comes out reluctantly but
eventually heads to the ring. Just as
the bell sounds, out comes Diva’s Champion Ravishing Raquel. She goes to sit at ringside. In 6 minutes, Jackie locks Brie in the Desert
Stretch and the Bella Twin submits.
Jackie immediately jumps out of the ring and gets in Raquel’s face. They exchange words and even begin to come to
blows but security is out there immediately to break it up. Raquel gets in the ring with a mic “You
wanna early taste of what my foot in your mouth is going to taste like, then
join me here in the ring now.” Jackie
makes like she is going to but then backs off laughing at Raquel. I guess we’re gonna have to wait for the Bash
to see who wins this one.
Before the next
match can begin, the lights go out and an eerie blue light comes on. The Undertaker, the CSWA and Undisputed World
Heavyweight champ comes out and makes his way to the ring. He gets in the ring and raises his arms
turning the lights on. HOLY CRAP! Kurt
Angle is in the ring and attacks the Undertaker. He gets him up an nails an Angle Slam. He grabs the Undertaker’s leg and applies the
Angle lock. Undertaker is writhing in pain as Kurt cinches it in. Eventually, security hits the ring and Angle
lets go and leaves on his own.
Undertaker makes it up to his feet but stumbles on his bad leg. He stares at Kurt and drags his thumb across
his throat. Angle backs up the ramp
smiling. Undertaker eventually makes it
out of the ring and to the back on his own.
Next on the card
are CWO members the Pick, the Axe and Psycho Jack Hercules taking on VamChango
and Bobby Lashley. This was the shortest match of the
night. Bobby Lashley tagged himself in
right when the bell rang and then was triple teamed by the CWO. Pick and the Axe tossed Bobby to the outside and
placed on a table where Psycho Jack nails a 360 splash from the top rope
through the Spanish announce table. Vam
Chango had their hands full with Pick and Axe and Bobby got counted out at the
3 minute mark. Bobby stumbles to make it
to his feet and as he stands up, BROCK LESNAR is standing right in front of
him. Bobby sees him and in a moment of
surprise, falls back down. Brock smiles
at him and leaves without laying a finger on Bobby.
In our second to
last match, Women’s Champion Gail Kim took on the original Women’s champ Layla
El for the title. 10 minutes in, Layla
nails Gail with The Layout and scores the first fall. 3 minutes later, the champ locks in a dragon
sleeper and Layla taps out. The match
goes another 9 minutes and Gail scores the 3rd fall after hitting
flying hurricanrana. Gail Kim retains the
Women’s title. Both women got a standing
ovation for this match.
The Main event
of the evening will be Shield member Roman Reigns taking on Samoa Joe. The match goes 13 minutes with Joe dominating
Reigns. Ambrose and Rollins made their
way down but were stopped by Prestige Inc members King Damian Sandow and
Magnus. Joe capitalized on the
distraction and after hitting a sick clothesline, scored the pin.
After everyone
left the ring, Hogan came back out. He
announced that there would be one more show between now and the Bash. The next event which would be mid-week, would
be tag team spectacular. All matches
except for one will be tag matches.
Hogan made sure to book Prestige Inc vs the Shield for that venue. All in all, I think everyone left satisfied.
Thanks for
reading. Stay tuned as our next show
will be taking place in Alpharetta, GA.
