Hello
Wrestling fans and welcome to our first newsletter of December. Starcade is just around the corner and as a
reminder, it is sold out but you can still tune in to PPV to catch all the
action from the comfort of your own couch.
The
show kicks off with Solomon Crowe making his way out and gets in the ring. He complains about not being used. GM Max McGillicutty comes out to the ring and
says “this is the way it is” and Crowe punches him. Max then fires him on the spot and has him
escorted out by security. Max asks if
anyone else thinks they’re getting a raw deal and out comes Tajiri and
Kenta. They ask for a match and if they
win, they should be granted a title shot at the PPV. Max agrees and says he gets to pick the
opponents but if Kenta and Tajiri lose, they are out of a job.
Max
leaves the ring with Tajiri and Kenta still there. He then introduces their opponents and out
comes the Canadians – The Savior and Drew, the Canadian Love Machine. The Canadians took control for the first 8
minutes of the match but then the Japanese Connection battled back and the two
teams stayed totally even until the end of the match. The end came after Drew caught Tajiri coming
off the ropes and hit a corkscrew pescado in the middle of the ring. The Savior takes out Kenta. The ref counted 1…2…3. The Canadians win this one and Tajiri and
Kenta are now both out of a job. Just as
the Savior and Drew were leaving, the Band (the Axe and Dirk Devon) run out and
attack them. Both men are beaten down
and left for the medics to help up (those jerks). (14 min)
In
the back, Wade Barrett runs into CJ.
“Hey buddy, I’ve got some BAD NEWS for ya. You and me…one on one in that ring. Sorry about your damn luck.” Barrett walks away. CJ doesn’t look concerned.
We
go back to the ring for our next match which has Charlotte Flair taking on
Summer Rae. Summer has been running her
mouth (on the internet) about how she could easily take the Diva’s Title from
Taylor Bella if Taylor had the guts to meet her in the ring. Charlotte comes out to a big pop. Charlotte goes right on the offensive and
kept that momentum up for the entire match.
It didn’t help Summer when Diva’s Champion Taylor Bella came out and sat
at commentary. Summer Rae tried to
complain but it did no good. Charlotte
ends up trapping Summer in the Figure 8 and got her to tap out. Charlotte celebrates briefly before
leaving. Summer ends up limping out
after Taylor had left the ring. (15 min)
In
the back, Beautiful People member Velvet Sky is talking about how she is
getting her shot at the Diva’s title tonight.
Her teammate Madison Rayne walked over and practically begged Velvet to
let her have this title shot. She would
give Velvet her shot at the Women’s title if she did. Velvet thought about it briefly and
accepted. Madison Rayne is now going on
to meet Taylor Bella for the Diva’s title tonight.
We
head to the ring for our next match.
‘Bad News’ Wade Barrett comes out first.
Before he makes his way out, the word “HASHTAG” starts flashing on the
Omegatron and out comes CJ. He gets a
good pop in front of this crowd. Barrett
doesn’t appreciate that and tears into CJ.
It doesn’t take long before Hardcore Champion Magnum Kone comes out with
“Ben” and “Jerry”. Ben grabs a chair. Magnum distracts the ref and Jerry jumps in
and grabs CJ. Barrett walks over and is
like “What the hell is going on?” and Ben swings the chair, misses CJ and nails
Barrett. Ben and Jerry flee the ring
with the chair. CJ sneaks up on a woozy
Barrett and locks in the guillotine choke.
Barrett, still out of it from the chair shot, taps out. CJ picks up another win. Magnum, Ben and Jerry are all on the outside
of the ring pissed off. The Desperados
(the Stache, El Chango and Leon Teremoto) make their way out and surround the
ring. CJ starts to panic…just a
little…until music hits…”WELLLLLLLLL, it’s the BIG SHOW”. Big Show runs (as fast as he could – he is
over 400 lbs. and slides into the ring just as the Desperados hit the
ring. CJ fights off both El Chango and
the Stache and Show nails Leon with a knockout punch. EVERYONE is stunned. The Stache pulls an unconscious Leon out of
the ring. Magnum, wearing his hardcore
title, starts to climb the steps but Ben and Jerry talk him out of it. The Desperados, Magnum and Ben&Jerry all
leave the ring with Big Show and CJ standing tall. (6 min for the match; 15 for the segment)
The
Miz and the Fiend are talking and Miz says how he needs the Fiend to destroy
Phat Sol and break him so that at the PPV, it will be easy pickings. The Fiend says “It will get done.” Miz seems pleased.
It
is time to head back to the ring for our Diva’s Title match. First, the challenger Madison Rayne comes out
with her Beautiful People teammates (Velvet Sky & former Women’s Champion
Angelina Love). The Champion Taylor
Bella comes out with her sisters Nikki & Brea Bella. This will be a best of 3 falls match 30
minute time limit fight. The first fall
goes to Madison who nearly took off Taylor’s head with a Yakuza kick in 7
minutes. The second round was 100%
controlled by Madison. Madison dominated
this round also and it didn’t help that the Beautiful People convinced the ref
that they were trying to interfere on behalf of their sister. The Bella Twins get sent to the back. Taylor managed to hold in there and ended up
hitting Madison with a dropkick out of the ring. Madison landed hard and didn’t make it back
in. Taylor gets this fall at the 21 ½
minute mark. There are only 90 seconds
left in this match. Madison didn’t have
anything left in her tank. Velvet and
Angelina end up attacking Taylor just as the end of the match bell rang
bringing this one to an end. The Bella
ran back down and beat down on the Beautiful People and chased them from the
ring. Taylor retains her title on a time
limit draw. (30 min)
Enforcer
member Ryback is in the back and he is pacing.
When asked what has him so distracted, Ryback replies that Rusev has
crossed the line. Rusev wants to act
like a coward so Ryback wants Rusev at Starcade in a Russian Chain match at Starcade. Ryback says that Rusev has no balls and he’ll
most likely run back to Moscow to hide since Ryback is the monster that Rusev’s
parents told him about when he was kid.
Ryback then walks away.
We
head back to the ring for our next match which is The Fiend vs Phat Sol. The Fiend totally underestimated Phat. In 13 minutes, the Fiend got in a total of 5
moves. Phat ends up scoring the win
after locking the Fiend into an abdominal stretch and turned it into a
pin. After this ass-kicking, Miz ran
down and attacks Phat Sol. Phat manages
to dropkick Miz out of the ring. Miz’s
US title remains in the ring. Phat Sol
picks it up and holds it high over his head.
Miz is screaming for him to return it.
Finally, Phat throws it to the Miz and Miz and the Fiend make their way
to the back. (13 min)
Bobby
Roode makes his way out to the ring and calls out Intercontinental Champion Sonic
Blade. He says that Blade is finding any
reason in the book to not defend that title against him. Sonic Blade accepts the challenge and says
that he will meet him at the PPV for the IC title.
It
is time for our Main Event. First, out
comes X-Factor member AJ Styles and he is taking on Bobby Lashley. Lashley must have been hitting the weights
before this as he looks absolutely HUGE.
This one went 12 minutes and Bobby was slightly more aggressive than
Styles. After almost knocking AJ out of
his wrestling boots when Bobby nailed a football tackle, he made the cover and
got the 1-2-3. Bobby Lashley wins this
one and the fans give both men a standing ovation.
After
the match, Max comes out and says the fans need to get their money worth so
he’s treating them to a dark match (non-televised). Before Max can announce who will be in the
match, Hardcore champion Magnum Kone comes out and says he’s defending the
Hardcore title against a person of his choosing. Out comes Uhaa Nation. Nation asks “what about him?” and makes his
way to the ring. Magnum, not realizing
how big this guy really is changed his mind and says “Another time” and
leaves. This does not sit well with Max who says that
if Magnum Kone won’t defend his title, he’ll for sure as hell be in a match. Max orders Magnum back to the ring and says
he will be teaming with the Stache to take on Uhaa Nation and a partner of his
choosing. Uhaa announces his partner for
this match will be…CJ. CJ and Uhaa
Nation just tore into Magnum and the Stache.
You could definitely tell Stache and Magnum didn’t want to be tag team
partners which worked out for CJ and Uhaa.
While CJ was fighting the Stache, Magnum nails Uhaa Nation with the Popsicle
(piledriver) on the floor taking him out.
CJ sees this and goes to the aid of his partner. CJ goes after Kone but the Stache followed
him out and knocked him down and then bodyslammed him on the steel steps. Magnum is the legal man and as the Stache
rolls back in the ring, he tags himself in much to the dismay of Kone. The ref counts to 10 and awards the win to
the Stache and Magnum Kone. Magnum Kone
has a staredown with the Stache as he stole the glory for himself. Uhaa Nation recovers and clears Magnum and
the Stache from the ring. CJ makes his
way back into the ring and the two stand tall as Magnum and the Stache make
their way backstage. Ben & Jerry run
out and drop the Stache. They stand over
him starting at him as Magnum Kone laughs.
With
that, this show comes to an end. Stay
tuned as we should have the 3 day Starcade PPV lineup almost finished.
