Hello
fans and welcome back to our newsletter.
This issue deals with the fallout from the Great American Bash. Master Bull is not here tonight. He leaves a message on Hogan’s machine
“Hogan, Bull. I won’t be in.” Hulk hears odd music playing in the background;
almost like Master Bull is at some party.
I guess we know where his priority lie.
Hulk mumbles “Shit is hitting the fan and he’s not around. Not good...brother.”
We
cut to the stage where newcomer Madame Jade (who was one of the wrestlers who
came in from the audience) has a mic in hand.
“Ladies and Gentlemen. At the
Great American Bash, one woman upset the status quo. One woman went out and made a statement. One woman walked away with the Diva’s
title. THAT woman is here tonight and
SHE is the future of the Diva’s Division.
I present to you…Jupiter Jade.”
Jupiter
Jane (our other mysterious wrestler who came in from the audience at the Bash)
comes out holding the Diva’s Title. She
and Madame Jade walk down to the ring to a mixed reaction from the fans as they
don’t yet know how to perceive them.
There is a ref in the ring and he is asking for Jane to relinquish the
title but she refuses. Taylor Bella runs
out and goes after Jupiter but GM Hulk Hogan comes out and gets them to stop.
Hogan
says that Jupiter WAS an employee before the Great American Bash so she is an
active competitor BUT she is not the champion as she was not in the triple
threat match. Hogan then goes off
talking about the other people who’ve been signed which includes Madam Jade,
another female wrestler Summer Rae and Mr. Wrestling #5. With these 3 women and Mr. Wrestling #5 being
added to the ever expanding roster, the landscape is getting more and more
competitive. Hogan says he has plans in
motion to bring in more talent but nothing has been finalized. “But I digress...back to the Diva’s
championship…he says there will be a 16 person tournament with the winner becoming
the NEW Diva’s champion and that match is next.” Hogan says that the list will be comprised of
Cactus Jackie, Taylor Bella, Jupiter Jane, Southern Belle, Madame Jade, Spider
Violet, Nikki Bella and Brie Bella, Ravishing Raquel, Natalya Neidhart and
Alicia Fox, Sasha Banks, Summer Rae, Charlotte Flair, Gail Kim and the Women’s
Champion Paige.
Once
all the women made their way down, the match officially began. This is a list of the order of elimination
and by whom:
Madame
Jade eliminates Alicia Fox
Sasha
Banks eliminates Nikki Bella
Southern
Belle eliminates Paige
Gail
Kim eliminates Spider Violet
Charlotte
Flair eliminates Brie Bella
Jupiter
Jane tosses Taylor Bella out w/ help from Madame Jade but she doesn’t go over
the top rope
Summer
Rae eliminates Cactus Jackie
Ravishing
Raquel eliminates Natalya
Sasha
Banks eliminates Madame Jade
Gail
Kim eliminates Southern Belle
Jupiter
Jane gets pulled out of the ring by Taylor Bella (not eliminated)
Ravishing
Raquel eliminates Summer Rae
Gail
Kim eliminates Sasha Banks
Charlotte
Flair eliminates Ravishing Raquel
Gail
Kim eliminates Charlotte after Taylor Bella, Jupiter Jane, Southern Belle and
Madame Jade caused the distraction with their fighting around ringside.
Jupiter
Jane sneaks back in the ring and eliminates Gail Kim. Taylor Bella sneaks back in and grabs Jane
and they both go over the top rope and hit the floor at the same time. This one is deemed a no contest as there is
no winner. Hogan comes back out and says
that the two finalists – Jupiter Jane and Taylor Bella will have a match with
the winner becoming the new Diva’s champion. The two finalists have a staredown
until Madame Jade led Jupiter Jane away and the Bella twins practically had to
drag their sister from the ring.
Our
next match is Layla El challenging Southern Belle for her title shot at the
Women’s Championship. Belle is trying
every underhanded maneuver she can do to get the upper hand but it is not
working. Madame Jade comes out and Belle
gets distracted. Layla ends up catching
her with a headscissors and pins her with it at the 24 minute mark. Belle loses her title shot. She is not happy and goes after Madame Jade.
Backstage
we see Box Office Megastar the Rock who is here meeting with friends. He meets up with the Desperados (El Chango
and the Stache) and thanks Stache for the honorable mention and congratulates
them on willing the titles. He says that
he and Mick Foley (the Rock N Sock Connection) couldn’t beat the Ascension but
he is happy that finally someone did. As
he is leaving, he bumps into a very pissed off #CJ and they have a staredown
before #CJ walks away.
#CJ
comes out on stage and has a mic. He
says that tonight, he is bringing out a team that took the world by storm early
in this century and introduces the NWO (Kevin Nash, X-Pac and Scott Hall). They all head to the ring and the fans pop
for the trio. #CJ seems a bit put off by
this. He then proceeds to go on a rant… talking
about how men like them and #CJ made this industry, the highest point of sports
entertainment. The fans begin to drown
him out with their cheering of the NWO.
Now #CJ is getting pissed. He tells
them they are just like the rest of this business…old, washed up has-beens
trying to steal his spot light for beer money and $2 prostitutes. They question his attitude and he goes out to
grab a chair. Nash pulls a quad trying
to get away; Hall falls down and rolls out of the ring (is he ok?) and that leaves X-Pac all alone. #CJ then blasts X-Pac with the chair knocking him
out. He then drops the chair and leaves
to the boos from the fans.
We
cut to the back and we are in Hogan’s office where he is meeting with owners
Mr. Bychowski and Mr. Meyers. Hogan says
that irregularities have surfaced in the books and a few weeks ago, he hired Gardenia
Blue, a forensic accountant to sort through the data looking for suspicious
activity. Ms. Blue presents her findings
which shows that GM Master Bull has been skimming box office receipts for over
a year and (based on the word of a PI) was feeding his strip club habit. Ms.
Blue did say that it is hard to follow the cash once it’s been converted to $1
bills. Owners Mr. Bychowski and Mr.
Meyers call Master Bull. He answered the
phone pretending that he was at the show.
When they said that they were here and Bull wasn’t, they demanded an
explanation. Bull had nothing to
say. The owners tell him what the
forensic accountant found. Again, Bull
remained silent. The owners say they’ll
make Bull an offer – he pays back all the money he stole (turns out to be about
$100K) and resigns as GM or charges will be filed. Master Bull hangs up on them. DB and JM say that they are immediately
suspending Master Bull pending further investigation and put Hulk Hogan in
temporary charge until a new GM for the HWF can be determined. Mr. Meyers
comments that Mr. Bychowski has been the GM before but DB says that he’s
“been there and done that.” As the owner
and now a retired in-ring competitor, he doesn’t want this level of involvement
anymore. He’s had his run and now its
long islands on the beach. He will find
someone new to step in. Gardenia Blue is
hired full time to manage the books and ensure they are properly
maintained. She will answer directly to
owner Mr. Bychowski.
We
head back to the ring but not for a match.
Sting, the Scorpion Warrior is there with a mic.
“I
am not one to come out here and make excuses.
I had Bray Wyatt beat. It was
because of the interference of Brock Lesnar that I, the Scorpion Warrior, am
not standing here as the HWF Champion.
Brock, you cost me the title.
Now, you’ve just made yourself an enemy and opened a Pandora’s Box that
you will regret ever messing with.”
Brock
Lesnar’s music hits and he comes out but he remains on the stage. “Are all of you THAT stupid? Has no one been listening to what I’ve had to
say? For weeks, I’ve said that I was
going after the HWF title. I said that
it didn’t matter who got in my way. None
of you listened and now you get to deal with ME.” He walks down to the ring. He enters and gets in Sting’s face. “I did what anyone who was in line for a
title shot would have done…secured MY chances.
You have a problem with that old man?
You see this title (he holds the IC title in Sting’s face), this belt
means I’m #2 in the HWF. THAT is
unacceptable. Brock Lesnar, the Beast
Incarnate, is either the top dog or doesn’t play. I’m here to play. Sting, you got in my way and paid the
price. Now I’m the number one contender
for the HWF title. I will do what no one
else has been able to do. I will defeat Bray Wyatt and become the HWF World
Champion. I will then snuff out anyone
else who challenges me and I will take the Undisputed Heavyweight Championship
and will be THE man.”
Sting: “Wow.
You sure are full of hot air there Brock. Thinking really highly of yourself,
huh? Tell you what…you think you’re the
top contender well guess what…I’m the top contender for that there title (the
IC title) and you aren’t going anywhere until you and I have settled our
matter. I can and will defeat you and
once I do, I will take that title and then get the rematch against Wyatt and
without you around to interfere, I will take the World title too.” The two get in each other’s faces and the
suits from the back came out to separate the two.
The
next match is a title match between Prestige Inc. and Robbie E, ECIII and
Rockstar Spud for the 6 Man tag team champions.
This one goes 17 minutes and sees the champs retain after Sandow nails
Spud with a spinning elbow drop.
Shield
members Ryback, Samoa Joe and Mark Henry come out and say that the Shield is
dead and that they are changing their name to the Enforcers. Rollins and Ambrose can keep what’s left of
their pathetic team as the Enforcers will take over the world. Ryback says that the Shield name is worthless
now.
Ryback
and Henry remain in the ring as their match is up next. Joe goes to sit at commentary. Their opponents are 2 members of the A-Team
Antonio Cesaro and Adrian Neville. For
the first 8 minutes, the A-team looked to be in control but it seems without
CSWA World Champion Austin Aries out there to even the odds, there was no one
to stop the constant interference from Samoa Joe. After a 22 minute battle, Mark Henry nails Neville
with a huge splash and pins him. The
Enforcers looked pretty bad-ass in this match.
We
cut to the back where we see Kevin Owens walking out of the Shield’s dressing
room. You hear Seth Rollins say “Kevin,
are you sure you don’t want to reconsider?”
Owens replies “I appreciate you guys having my back against Joe and his
loser buddies but Kevin Owens is a one man band. No hard feelings and I hope you both find the
right man to put the Shield back together again.” Kevin leaves.
(Cut to inside the room). Ambrose
and Rollins are talking and there is a knock on the door. It opens (we don’t see who it is). Rollins says “Well, as I live and
breathe. Have a seat why don’t cha.”
The
show comes to an end before we get to see who that is. Stay tuned for more action.
