HCW Wrestling Newsletter 2016 (formerly the HWF/CSWA) – #471 - New Beginnings!

Hello fans and welcome to the ALL NEW HCW – Heritage Championship Wrestling.  We will be coming to you on a regular basis from our new home located in Phoenix, Arizona.  The owners Mr. Bychowski and Mr. Meyers alongside GM Max McGillicutty welcome the fans here as well as those tuning in on TV.  Mr. B says that the three of them, along with former GM Master Bull, went globally to find new talent and DAMN, did they ever!    We will be introducing all the newest additions to the HCW here shortly but have a few things to note.

After the success of Wrestlemania in Phoenix, we knew that Arizona was going to be our new home.  Multiple Arizona cities including Mesa, Glendale, and Tucson all bid to become the new home for the HCW but Phoenix eventually won out.

A new rule has been added that if a champion loses their belt on their first title defense, they are NOT entitled to a rematch.  Also, since the 6 man championship is a trophy and not a title, those who hold it are exempt from the multiple title rule.  The 6 man trophy will be defended 3x a year.

Jerry Saunders, Fang’s cameraman and long-time nemesis of Phat Sol dating back to high school, has requested a wrestler’s contract.  Once it was seen what he can do, it was granted.  I’m sure he and Phat Sol will be facing off soon.

The Owners remind everyone that the existing talent will only be enhanced with their new finds.  They then leave the stage and GM Max then introduces the new faces to the fans of HCW.  

From Germany

Baron Von Blood (Reinhardt Schmitt)

Karl Braun

Iron Cross (Oswald Zimmerman)

Wendell Hammerschmidt

Baron Von Blood takes the mic and calls the fans here stupid and ignorant.  He tells us that his team consisting of himself, Karl Braun and Iron Cross will be part of a new stable called the 5^th Column.  Blood introduces the man who will manage this team – Ant Graham.  Baron then invites fellow German Wendell Hammerschmidt to join them and after Wendell declines, the 5^th Column attack him.  Ant takes the mic and says Wendell was never the right material for the 5^th Column so he brought one of his own.  He then introduces:

After the introductions were completed, Max says that two tournaments will take place tonight leaving the final two of each tournament to fight at the June PPV Independence Day Breakdown for the new championships.  The two tournaments tonight will be the World and Ladies tournaments.  There will be 5 minute matches and the person with the best performance will advance.
