HWF/CSWA Wrestling Newsletter 2015 – 05.02


Welcome back to our newsletter.  Our show tonight is chock full of action so let’s get right down to it.

The show begins backstage where HWF Bray Wyatt beat the tar out of Sting.  He cradles Sting in his arms and says that he will ease Sting’s pain.  He then breaks out “I’ve got the whole world…in my hands.”

CSWA Austin ‘the Man’ Aries walks in accompanied by A-Team members Antonio Cesaro and Abyss.  They are met by GM Hulk Hogan.  Hogan once again congratulates Aries on his world title win but informs him that the title must be defended tonight.  Aries begins to complain and then stops.  He says that he is the World Champion and will not let his team or Hogan down.  Hogan also tells the others that they will also be in action tonight.  They all seem to be ok with it.

Our first match has Alberto el Patron challenging AJ Styles for his spot for the US title.  AJ destroyed Alberto for the 15 minutes this went on.  AJ ends up getting the pin after hitting Alberto with the Styles Clash.  After the match, Randy Orton shows up on stage and makes likes he going to run down to the ring but he stops short and then leaves.

The Miz comes out and says he got fired from his movie all thanks to the Fiend.  Miz says the Fiend cost him a lot of money and even though he said one match between them and they were done, this changes things.  Now he is going to teach the Fiend a lesson he’ll never forget.  He drops the mic and storms out.

We head to the ring for our next match which is supposed to be Big Show challenging Brock Lesnar for his spot for the Hardcore title.  Lesnar comes out and says that he has no interest in pursuing this title so he says that Big Show can have the spot.  As Brock walks away, GM Hulk Hogan comes out and says that it is Brock’s right to refuse a title shot but he cannot just give that spot away.  Hogan tells Big Show that later tonight, he fights Bobby Lashley and the winner gets that spot.

A Bray Wyatt vignette airs.  “You always told me that the war to bring down this machine would be a long and daunting process, and you were right. You're always right. The man called Sting is a coward. He is but a miniscule ant trying to pierce the armor of a scorpion. I felt him, I held him, I held him right here in my arms, the same way you did for me. I offered him a way out of this hell, I told him I can take the pain away. All I was able to feel was his empty heart beating. I'm sorry. I'm sorry for ever doubting you, Abigail. I understand now what you expect from me, I understand what it is we must do. If Sting refuses to walk with the reapers then he will burn with the saints."

The next match is Antonio Cesaro vs Adrian Neville for Neville’s IC title shot.  If Neville loses, he trades spots with Cesaro and moves over to the North American top 10.   Neville had control early on but then Cesaro kicked it up a notch.  He and Neville battled for 21 minutes and Cesaro sneaks out a win after hitting Adrian with the Cradle facebuster.  Cesaro is now in line for the IC title and Neville moves to the NA.

Buff Austin comes out and says that everyone who’s been put in front of him has been taken out.  First it was legend Sting, then Legend-Killer Randy Orton and finally the not-so-great MW3.  Austin says that he will continue on this path until he once again wears gold around his waist.

We have our first title match of the night with the champs the Ascension taking on the Band (Pick & the Axe).  The Ascension and MJ come out to Black Sabbath’s ‘Iron Man’ (this was at one time the music for the Road Warriors).  The fans are pissed and throws crap at them.  The Band comes out and they are using ‘Hellraiser’ by Ozzy Osborne (music also used by the Road Warriors at one time).  These fans must be old-school to have caught these references and the Band got booed and crapped on just as bad as the champs did.  Right before the match could begin, the Ascension attacked the Axe by hitting the Fall of Man on the exposed concrete floor.  He looks to be hurt.  Dirk says he will continue on for his team.  He started off with a bang but double teaming from the champs slowed him down.  Dirk held his own for 15 minutes but after Konnor hit him with a DDT in the middle of the ring, it was all over.  The Ascension retain their titles.  Viktor gets on the mic and tells the band “You may suck but we don’t’ care.”

GM Hulk Hogan conducts a very rare interview talking to Kenta Kobayashi.  He asks Kenta if he is ready for his match against ‘The Man’ Austin Aries for the CSWA World title and Kenta responds that he is honored to be given this shot and will give nothing short of 100% in the ring.

We head back to the ring for our next match which is Big Show vs Bobby Lashley with the winner getting the vacated title spot for the Hardcore title (Show still has his money in the bank contract).  Bobby Lashley comes out first and then is followed by Big Show who has his briefcase with him.  Before the match could begin, Hardcore Champion #cj comes out and sits at the commentary booth.  #cj says that now that he is a champion, his name needs to reflect importance and now he is #CJ…all caps to reflect his importance (in his own mind that is).  Show and Lashley look on with trepidation.  Both men go in and start blasting each other with lefts and rights.  Lashley hits the ropes setting up a spear but Show catches him and hits a very impressive chokeslam.  Big Show gets the win in just 4 minutes.  #CJ hits the ring with a chair and begins blasting Show with it.  After what seemed like an eternity of chair shots, Show somehow manages to get to his feet.  #CJ decides to leave and sees the briefcase sitting there.  He makes for it but out runs lil’ Naitch and #CJ decides to leave it alone. 

The third member of the A-Team Abyss is up next taking on Eric Young.  Abyss underestimated the spryness of EY and it cost him dearly. Abyss would try to overpower EY but he was just too quick some of the times.  Towards the end of the match, EY climbed to the second turnbuckle and hit a second rope piledriver.  Abyss is out.  EY makes the cover and gets the 1-2-3 at the 19 minute mark.  Abyss struggled to his feet.  Fellow teammates Antonio Cesaro and Austin Aries came out.  Aries said that this wasn’t working out and said that Abyss is out of the A-Team.  They need someone more capable of holding their own.  Abyss pleads with them that he wasn’t ready for tonight’s show and Aries says that is the reason this split needs to happen.  Abyss asks for one more chance.  He suggests a mini battle royal with 3 other wrestlers and the winner can get that coveted 3rd spot.  Aries asks who Antonio thinks should be the other 3 and he says Adam Rose, Adrian Neville and Alexander Rusev.  Aries agrees.  They all leave at the same time.

Next on the card is Dean Ambrose vs. Kazarian.  If Ambrose wins, he will get another shot at Daniels and the US title.  The US Champion Christopher Daniels comes down and sits at commentary.   This match was nothing short of an ASS-Whipping.  Ambrose was a man on a mission.  He beat the snot, the holy hell and the kitchen sink out of Kazarian.  And he did so for 24 whopping minutes.  Ambrose kept motioning to Daniels each and every time he incapacitated Kaz.  After Kaz caught Ambrose with an eye rake, he signaled to Daniels who removed one of the padded turnbuckles.  Ambrose saw this and reversed a whip and blasted Kaz’s head into the exposed bracket.  Kaz collapsed and while Daniels had a tantrum on the outside of the ring, Ambrose made the (very lax) cover and got the 1-2-3.  Daniels pulled Kaz out of the ring and helped him to the back.  Ambrose gets another title shot.

It is time for our main event.  CSWA World Champion Austin ‘the Man’ Aries defends his title against Kenta Kobayashi.  This is a best of 3 falls.  The first fall goes to the champ who, in 26 minutes, gets the pin after hitting a slingshot corkscrew press.  The second fall goes to Kenta who gets a rollup after hitting a neckbreaker in 5 min.  The final fall goes 16 minutes and was pretty darn close the entire way.  Aries got a break and was able to hit the Aries 450 and pick up the final fall.  Aries retains his title after a very hard fought, impressive performance.  As the show was coming to an end, Abyss, Cesaro and GM Hulk Hogan come out and celebrate with the champ.


That is all for now.  Stay tuned for more action.
