HWF/CSWA Wrestling Newsletter 2015 – #431 (Sat – STARCADE Continues)


Hello fans and welcome to Day two of our Starcade PPV spectacular.  Today’s show picks up where yesterday’s show left off.  GM Max McGillicutty makes his way to the stage and welcomes everyone here and at home to our show.  Max says that he is not going to waste any time and wants to get this show moving. 

CSWA World Champion Samoa Joe comes out to a huge pop.  Joe talks about his accomplishments and says that adding the Triple Crown to his collection will prove he is the best in the business.  He will walk out with all the gold and then everyone in the business will respect him.  He is interrupted when HWF World Champion Brock Lesnar comes out.  Brock says that Joe is mistaken and that he is under the delusion of who will walk out with the belts.  Brock says that he, the Beast Incarnate, will walk out with all the gold.  Brock even says that he’d be willing to put his entire career on the line to make his point. 

They are interrupted by Undisputed Heavyweight Champion Bray Wyatt.  Wyatt has a mic.   

"Simmer down, boys. I know what you're feeling right now, Brock…Joe, and believe me when I say it's okay to be afraid. For I am the hammer that everybody fears but she is the force that drives the nail. So my advice to you is that you enjoy your world as long as you can, man... because I am gonna take it all away. Follow the buzzards."  Bray drops the mic and walks away.  Brock stares at Joe before leaving.  Joe eventually leaves.

We go to the ring for our first match.  This is a Women’s Money in the Bank match.  This one had 20 different women come down to participate but both Women’s Champion Gail Kim and Diva’s Champion Ravishing Raquel were both eliminated early.  The final two left were Awesome Kong and Bayley.  They fought for 17 minutes trying to eliminate each other but had no luck.  Bayley outwrestled Kong and dazzled the monster with her quick moves.  Bayley ends up hitting a corkscrew armdrag and rolled into a pin and got the 1-2-3.  Bayley wins this one and is guaranteed a future title match at a belt of her choice.  She celebrates with the fans before leaving.  (30 min)

We cut to the back where Devon and Bubba Ray Dudley are being interviewed.  They say that the Ascension are now in their yard participating in a match they’ve mastered.  Bubba says that the Ass-cension will be destroyed tonight.  Devon looks at the camera and says “TESTIFY.”

The Elitist Champion Reid Rothchild says that he has a match against Wade Barrett.  Barrett got lucky in their last match but tonight, luck just ran out.  “This is MY title and it isn’t going anywhere.”  Reid then walks off camera.

We go back to the ring for our next match.  The fans immediately chant “We want tables” (clap, clap, clapclapclap) and the Dudleys come out first carrying two tables.  The fans pop loud.  They get to the ring and set up the tables and then climb the turnbuckles much to the delight of the fans.  Their music is abruptly cut off and out comes Viktor and Konnor – The Ascension with their manager MJ.  They have a table of their own but they are heavily booed as they make their way to ringside.  Viktor takes a mic and tells the Dudleys that just like all the tag teams before them, the Ascension will destroy the Dudleys and make them barely a footnote in the history of professional wrestling.  The bell rings and all 4 men start beating the crap out of each other.  Konnor introduces a chair into the brawl and Devon pulled out a ladder.  This just became a tables, ladders and chairs match. Stuff was flying everywhere and the Dudley’s showed the Ascension the meaning of the term ‘hardcore’.  The Dudley’s put both Konnor and Viktor through separate tables but neither could get the pin.  At one point, a table was set up between two ladders (up off the mat) and one below it.  While fighting on the ladders, Devon and Konnor were trading punches and Devon almost fell off.  He armdragged Konnor from his side of the ladder, up over the top, through the first table and down to the mat through the second table.  “HOLY SHIT” chats echoed throughout the arena.  Bubba put Viktor through a table with a Bubba Bomb but still the Ascension kicked out.  Somehow, Viktor and Konnor recovered enough and started to battle back.  All 4 men ended up in the ring again with Konnor dispatching Devon.  Viktor, out of nowhere, hits the Psycho Crusher on Bubba through another table and just as he crawls over to make the cover, the bell rings bringing this one to a 30 minute draw.   The fans once again popped HUGE as all 4 men struggled to get to their feet.  MJ gets in the ring and raises the arms of his two men who then leave the ring.  MJ then goes over to Bubba and starts shaking a finger in his face.  Bubba looks to the crowd and gives them a ‘thumbs up’ and grabs MJ and Bubba Bombs him right in the ring.  Viktor slides back in and pulls MJ out of the ring.  They help their manager to the back while a beat up and bruised Dudley Boys celebrate with the fans before leaving.  (30 min)

Sting is interviewed and says that tonight is a trial by fire.  He will teach Tyler Breeze the meaning of the word respect and he do that from pillar to post and prove that he is worthy to carry the X-Division title.

Booby Roode comments about Sonic Blade hiding from him all this time and now he finally gets his rightful shot at the IC title. He is the “Adonis” to Sonic’s “Slug”.  This will be an easy win.

We head back to the ring for our next match.  First, over the loudspeaker blares “I’ve got some bad news for ya…” and out comes Wade Barrett.  Barrett struts to the ring and then raises his arms like he’s won the lottery.  Reid’s music hits and out comes the Elitist Champion and he is accompanied by his wife and the NEW Diva’s Champion Ravishing Raquel.  Barrett proved that his win over Reid in the non-title match was no fluke and took the match to the champ.  Reid could not stop the onslaught that Barrett brought forth and was on the receiving end of a beating he’s not had in quite a long time.  At 17 minutes, Reid was fading fast but not fast enough for Wade.  Wade left the ring and grabbed a chair.  The ref told Wade to drop it and Wade blasted Reid with the chair resulting in a disqualification.  Reid retains the title via DQ.  The Diva’s Champion jumped in the ring and started mouthing off to Wade.  He grabbed her by the wrist and threatened to drop her but Reid recovered quickly and got to his feet nailed Barrett with the Rothchild Stunner.  Reid and Raquel grabbed both of their titles and left the ring.  Barrett eventually recovered and left the ring rubbing his jaw.  (18 min)

Tyler Breeze says tonight, the Icon Sting faces off against the X-Division champion and there will only one winner and that HE will be the one with his arm raised at the end of the match.

John Cena shows up backstage and is told that his match against the Undertaker tonight will be a Last Man Standing match.  Cena says that the Undertaker is past his prime and says that today, the Undertaker doesn’t respect him but after their match, he will.

We head back to the ring for the next match.  The challenger Bobby Roode comes out first and is booed.  He is then followed by the Intercontinental Champion Sonic Blade.  Blade is accompanied by his tag team partner the Nigerian Wraith.  The Wraith and Sonic Blade get a big pop from the crowd.  The match was pretty even and both men really held their own.  At one point, Bobby Roode pie faced the Wraith and that really pissed him off.  The Wraith, all nonchalantly, grabbed a chair and just as Roode turned around, the Wraith blasted him with it.  The ref then immediately disqualified Sonic Blade for outside interference.  Bobby Roode wins the match but the title does NOT change hands on a disqualification so Sonic Blade (luckily) retains his title.  (11 min)

Larry Morton is in the back and introduces the Phenom the Undertaker.  Morton asks Undertaker his thoughts about John Cena.  Undertaker says that Cena is an overpaid jobber who believes his own hype.  Undertaker says he’s been around for 2 decades and isn’t going anywhere.  Cena, however, will have his final match tonight and once he’s gone, Undertaker will once again go after the World title and reassert his dominance as the greatest wrestler in this sport.

We go back to the ring for our next match.  The challenger Sting rappels down from the rafters wearing his trenchcoat and pulls a baseball bat out from under his coat.  Music hits and out comes the X-Division Champion Tyler Breeze. For 5 minutes, the two went toe to toe but after Tyler connected with an Implant DDT and a 2 count, the tide turned in the favor of the champion.  Tyler then beat Sting in and out of the ring with the Icon struggling to keep up.  Sting finally was able to connect with a Scorpion Death drop and that changed the tide in favor of the Icon.  Sting took the fight to Tyler and Tyler seemed worried.  The two continued to duke it out reversing each other’s moves and trying to one-up each other.  The fans started cheering for both men and they actually stopped the match to soak in the reactions from the fans.  Sting managed to lock Tyler in the Scorpion Death Lock but Tyler actually powered out of it much to the surprise of Sting and Tyler he locked Sting in an abdominal stretch.  Tyler hits Sting with an Implant DDT but Sting gets right up and does his Stinger scream in Tyler’s face trying to put Tyler off his game.  Tyler instead hits another Implant DDT and hooks the leg this time getting the 1-2-3.  Tyler Breeze retains his title.  As Tyler celebrates in the ring, Sting eventually recovers and confronts Tyler.  Sting stares at him for a moment before extending his hand.  Tyler looks around and the crowd pops.  Tyler eventually shakes Sting’s hand in a sign of mutual respect.  Sting leaves the ring and lets Tyler soak in the reaction from the crowd.  (21 min)

Clarkus Kentus comes to the ring and he introduces the new Hardcore Champion – The Stache.  Stache says that it was inevitable and he knew that he would be victorious over Magnum Kone and CJ.  CJ then walks to the ring and says that the Stache was the better man IN that match (but he sucks otherwise). Stache holds the belt in CJ’s face and says that the best man has the title.  CJ says that Stache is the champ but he did NOT beat him but pinned Magnum.   When the Stache decides he wants to man up, CJ will be waiting for his chance to get the belt…again.   The Stache tries to take a swing but CJ locks him in the guillotine choke and won’t let up.  The Stache is tapping out but CJ just cinches it in until the Stache passes out.  El Chango and Leon Teremoto run out but CJ takes off through the crowd.  He says the Stache best get prepared for him in the new year because he is about to make Stache’s life a living hell.  The Desperados help their teammate to the back.

GM Max McGillicutty comes out and says that it is time for the main event.  The Doctor of Thuganomics takes on the Phenom the Undertaker.  Max says that the rules for this match will be Last Man Standing – the loser of the match will be the one who cannot answer the 10 count.  First, he introduces John Cena who comes out to a small pop but that gets buried in the booing that follows.   A gong sounds and an eerie blue light shines the way to the ring.  The Undertaker makes his way out and takes his time getting in the ring.  He climbs in to the ring and raises his arms and the lights come up.  The bell sounds and Undertaker goes on the offensive not caring what rules he was breaking.  Undertaker had to be reprimanded by the ref numerous times and the fans started getting tired of it.  Cena started to battle back and the cheering, little by little, started to increase and Undertaker started getting booed.  Both men fought all over the place.  Cena hit an F-U but Undertaker popped up at 2.  Undertaker would hit both a tombstone piledriver and the Last Ride and Cena would kick out of both…barely.  Undertaker ended up hitting Cena with a chokeslam through the Spanish announce table.  He barely made it back to his feet by the 10 count.  The more Undertaker threw at Cena, the more the Dr. took.  The fans began cheering for Cena more as the match went on.  By the time the match hit the 20 minute mark, the audience was very pro-Cena and that pissed off the Undertaker.  Finally, Undertaker pulled Cena out of the ring and took him to the regular announcers table.  He called for the last ride.  He set Cena up but Cena struggled out of it and picked up the Undertaker and nailed the F-U right through the table.  John makes the cover and the ref counts 1-2-3.  John then steps away and the ref begins the 10 count.  The ref counted to 10 and Undertaker was still down.  John Cena wins this one in a very hard fought fashion.  The fans pop for John and at first he’s not sure how to accept it but then finally takes it in and celebrates with the fans. 

As the camera pans the building, it looks up to the rafters (something caught the camera’s attention) and we see the Caped Crusader up there.  He smiles and then disappears back into the shadows. 


With that, the show comes to an end.  We have one final day and those matches promise to live up to the past two days events.  Stay tuned.
