Hello
fans and welcome back to our newsletter.
Tonight’s rare Saturday show starts off back in GM Max McGillicutty’s
office. As Max starts to talk about
tonight’s show, Stephanie McMahon walks into his office. Max says that he’s happy Stephanie is here
and she will get to wrestle in front of the HWF and CSWA fans. Stephanie asks who her opponent will be and
Max says its Four Horsewoman member Bayley.
Stephanie laughs and says it will be a short match and she leaves. Max says titles will be defended tonight
including the Intercontinental, World, and Women’s tag team. He says it’s time for the action to begin and
we cut to the ring.
Our
first match of the evening starts off with John Cena making his way to the
ring. The fans give him a decent pop
with the others chanting “you suck”.
Cena’s opponent tonight will be Enforcer member Samoa Joe. Joe comes out to a surprising pop (probably
because they want to see him dismantle Cena).
Joe gets in the ring and the bell immediately sounds. Joe immediately locks in a rear naked choke
and Cena flails but eventually makes it to the ropes. John can’t believe the ferocity Joe brought
to the match. Cena gets to his feet and
walks right into a Muscle Buster. Joe makes the cover and gets the 1-2-3. Samoa Joe wins this one in 2 minutes. Joe laughs and leaves. Cena, shocked, leaves right after him.
In
the back, the Steel Curtain (Buzz and Starbuck) run into the Uso’s (Jey and
Jimmy). Buzz issues a challenge to them
for their spot. Jimmy says that they
will agree on one condition…if the Steel Curtain lose, they cannot challenge
for the tag team titles until after Wrestlemania. Jey says that the Steel Curtain, for whatever
reason, seem to be a highlight and it’s time for them to shine instead. Starbuck agrees to the stipulation and that
match will be later.
We
head back to the ring for our next match and Bayley makes her way out. She gets a tremendous pop. Incredible.
After she gets to the ring, her music is abruptly cut off and Stephanie
McMahon makes her way out. It’s
interesting to note that there is no ref.
Max comes out and says that the ref for this match came down with the
sniffles and they need a new ref. Out
comes…Ronda Rousey dressed in a referee shirt.
The fans pop. Ronda runs to the
ring and of course Stephanie bails.
After some jawjacking, Stephanie finally gets in the ring and threatens
Ronda to call this down the middle.
Stephanie held her own and partially controlled the tempo of the
match. After Stephanie threw Bayley out
of the ring, she got in Ronda’s face and even pushed her into the corner. Ronda threatened to disqualify her and even
pulled back her fist to hit Stephanie but Steph backed off and turned right
around into Bayley-to-belly suplex and Bayley made the cover and Ronda counted
1-2-3. Bayley gets the win and the fans
pop. She leaves as Stephanie gets
up. She attacks Ronda who reverses the
attack and locks in her patented armbar.
Stephanie hollers and screams but eventually gets out and runs back up
the ramp cursing Ronda. Rousey soaks in
the cheers before leaving too.
(12
min for the match; 15 for the segment)
(Pre-taped segment. A dark room lit
with candles sets the scene. The masked cameraman who helped attack Sol is in
the shot. US Champion Dr. Red Fang enters the frame with the strap slung over
his shoulder. He taps the title a few times before speaking).
“I said this was only the beginning.
(Fang picks up a lit candle and holds it up to the camera) Phat Sol, all of
your hopes and all of your dreams I hold in the palm of my hand (Fang blows out
the candle and then tosses the candle aside). I took your spirit before I took
your title. Before our match I saw the fear in your eyes. Everything that you
had worked for was extinguished as the referee's hand hit the mat for the three
count. When the referee raised my hand in victory I glanced down at your
pitiful, broken carcass and laughed at how easy all of this was. If you're
foolish enough to want a rematch, just remember the lengths I will go to to
keep this title. Phat Sol the next time we meet...I may end your career. Choose
wisely Blood Bag!”
After the promo Fang yells at the
masked man to pick up the candle that was tossed aside. You see the masked man
scrambling nervously to find the candle. Once he finds it Fang snatches the
candle out of his hand, shoves the masked man out of the frame, holds the
candle up to the camera and breaks the candle. Segment abruptly ends.
We
go back to the ring for our next match which has Alicia Fox and Gail Kim
challenging Charlotte and Sasha Banks for the Women’s tag team titles. It took 18 minutes for the champs to actually
find their groove and after that, it was all about the Horsewomen. Charlotte and Sasha took turns beating down
Kim and Fox after some successful double teaming, Sasha got Alicia cornered and
locked in the straightjacket choke. As
Alicia was fading, she immediately hooked the leg and a weary Alicia could not
kick out in time. Charlotte and Sasha
Banks get the win and have a successful tag team title defense under their
belts. The pose briefly for the fans
before leaving. (26 min)
Robbie
E and Rockstar Spud make their way out to the ring and get on the mic saying
that championship matches are passing them by and they feel they are not
getting a fair shake. They throw out a
challenge to any team and says once they defeat them, they’ll be ready for the
belts. The lights go out and an eerie
red light illuminates the way to the ring.
Kane and Big Show make their way out and I think Robbie and Spud may
have had an accident. They of course
tried to run but Kane and Show stopped them.
Show nails Robbie with a giant headbutt and tags Kane in. Kane nails a chokeslam from Hell and makes
the cover for a two count. Just as Show
is tagged back in, Rockstar Spud nails him from behind with a steel chair
resulting in a DQ. That did little to
dissuade Big Show as he dragged Spud back into the ring. Kane got Robbie E and nailed another
chokeslam from Hell just as Big Show dropped the Cutting Edge. Robbie and Spud were out. Kane and Show celebrated briefly before
leaving. (2 ½ min)
We
cut to the back where Triple Crown champion Bray Wyatt is. Bray says that now is not the time for
cryptic messages but says King CJ will understand a new level of Pain at
Wrestlemania but tonight, Xavier Woods gets to be the sacrificial lamb tonight. Follow the Buzzards.
Eric
Young heads to the ring for his match.
His opponent tonight is the returning Phat Sol. Phat is looking pretty good after the
annihilation at the hands of Dr. Red Fang.
Phat looks at the camera and promises he will get his title back. EY tried to make the match hard for Phat but
he held his own. EY tried to leave a
couple of times but Phat just brought him back into the ring. As EY tried to whip Phat into the ropes, Phat
reversed it and nailed a jawjacker (like a stunner). Phat makes the cover and gets the 1-2-3. Phat is victorious and is well on his way
back to getting a rematch for the title he lost. (20 min)
Goldust
is in the back and tells Clarkus Kentus that he is in line for a shot at the
Hardcore title held by the Stache.
Goldie says it’s time for the Stache to be invited to Shattered Dreams
and that Hardcore title will become his.
“Stache, get ready for (deeeeeeeeeep breath) HA….Gooooold Dust.”
It’s
time to head back to the ring for more action.
The Uso’s – Jimmy and Jey – come out first to a decent reaction from the
fans. Next, the Steel Curtain comes out
and the roof practically blows off. The
Usos don’t like getting shown up so the attack SC as they enter the ring. The Steel Curtain push back hard and double
team the Usos. The Steel Curtain beat
back any offense from the Usos and dominated the match. At the 5 minute mark, Starbuck nails Jey with
the Buck-U and Buzz hurls him out of the ring.
They then blast Jimmy off the apron.
Jey doesn’t make it back in before the bell and this one is awarded to
the Steel Curtain by countout. After the
match, Jey and Jimmy got back in the ring and had a staredown with Buzz and
Starbuck. The Uso’s end up extending
their hands and everyone shakes hands and leaves. (5 min)
Xavier
Woods is in the back with New Day teammates Big E and Kofi Kingston and he says
that tonight will be a New Day when he takes the World title from Bray. Big E asks if he’s really up to it and says
he’ll step in if need be. Xavier says
he’s got this.
We
go back to the ring for our next title match.
Forgotten member Erick Rowan comes out and he’s accompanied by the
Undertaker. Undertaker takes the mic and
tells Magnum Kone that tonight, he loses his belt and after Rowan is done with
him, he will REST…IN…PEACE.
Intercontinental Champion Magnum Kone comes out and gets a big pop. Haagen and Daas start to hand out ice cream
to the fans. Uh Oh, some of the fans are
not liking what they are getting. In
fact, they are throwing the ice cream on the floor…what the heck….Haagen and
Daas then attack Magnum Kone and beat him down.
Magnum eventually fights them off only to be attacked by Erick
Rowan. Haagen and Daas go over to the Undertaker
who hands them envelopes with (most likely) a payoff in it. They laugh and walk away. Rowan beats down on Magnum Kone and then
after Rowan distracted the ref, Undertaker nails a chokeslam. Rowan picks up Magnum and nails a
waist-lift-side-slam and then makes the cover for the 1-2-3. Before the ref can announce Rowan as the
winner, Max comes out and points out via replay that Undertaker interfered in
the match and that he is nullifying this one.
He says that next show, Kone will get Rowan once again and the title
will be on the line but Undertaker and the rest of the Forgotten will be banned
from ringside. Rowan tried to complain
but the ref said Max is the boss and his ruling stands. (16 min)
Stephanie
McMahon makes her way back out to the stage and confronts Max. She tells him
that he set her up and that no one in the CSWA or HWF will see her until her
match at Wrestlemania. The fans pop huge
and practically boo her off stage. Max
waves as she leaves in a huff. Max then
says it’s time for the main event and leaves.
Xavier
Woods makes his way out first accompanied by New Day teammates Kofi and Big
E. Triple Crown Champion Bray Wyatt comes out as
he makes his way to the ring with all 3 championships on his shoulders. Big E gets into Bray’s face and tells him his
time is up. This one had no time to
even get anywhere because as soon as the bell rant, Bray immediately dragged
Xavier out of the ring and DDT’d him on the steps. He then rolled him back in and nailed Sister
Abigail and got the 1-2-3 at the 1 minute mark.
Bray is victorious. Big E then
gets on the mic and says he is also a top contender and wants his match right
now. Bray agrees to it. This one went a bit longer but the end result
was the same. After taking a beating
from Bray, Big E gets dropped by a lifting forearm smash. Bray makes the cover and gets the 1-2-3 at
the 13 minute mark. So Bray Wyatt just
defended his title twice in 14 minutes and was successful both times. As New Day left in disgrace, music hits and
out comes King CJ. CJ makes his way to
the ring and doesn’t say a word while staring at Bray but he does point a
finger to a Wrestlemania banner hanging from the rafters and the two just stare
at each other as the show comes to an end.
That’s
all for now. Stay tuned for more action.
