Hello
fans and welcome back to the HCW Wrestling newsletter. After stepping away from our home for the
last show, we tested the waters in Tucson and received a very warm
welcome. We will continue to expand to
other cities and, if available, other states.
For now, we’re back in Phoenix ready to bring you the next installment
of our show.
Before
anything can begin, the Omegatron lights up and we get another update from his
Royalness King CJ. CJ says that he
appreciates the well-wishes from his fans and that is definitely helping him in
his recovery. He is happy to report that
he’s up to 71% and in no time expects to be back at 100% and then WATCH OUT…CJ
will be back.
In
the back, the 5th Column (Karl Braun and Baron von Blood) corner the
Stache in the back. They look to rough
him up for sticking his nose in their business and the Wraith walks over. The 4 stand toe to toe but Ant Graham takes
his team away.
Today’s
show kicks off with Mr. Wrestling #5 challenging Wilber Townsend (w/the
Ambassador) for his spot in the World title lineup. 5 would have done much better if the
Ambassador had not been there. Just when
he thought he was on a roll, the Ambassador would trip him or eye gouge him in
the corner. Wilber used his brute
strength to hammer on the back of Mr. Wrestling 5 weakening his back. After dropping Wilber with a belly to back
suplex, it seemed that 5 may have hurt himself on that. Wilber capitalized by hammering 5’s back with
vicious blows. Finally, he rolled 5 up
and with a foot on the bottom rope (for leverage), Wilber got the pin. Wilber Townsend retains his spot in the
lineup for the World title. (17 min)

So
far, the votes are looking like this for the match between Phat Sol and Jerry
Saunders:
Tables,
Ladders and Chairs 28%
Last
Man Standing – 22%
Phoenix
Street fight – 22%
Boot
Camp – 18%
I
Quit – 10%
The
fans attending the shows have been more interactive and so far, it looks like
the TLC match has the lead but now that we are back in the Valley of the Sun,
maybe that Street fight rules match will become more popular. There is one week left for fans to vote so be
sure to get those votes in now.
We
move on to our next match and this one is tag team action with The Steel
Curtain vs Superquake Ferguson & Angry Jack Lawson. The Steel Curtain challenged Ferguson and
Lawson for their spot. Before the match
can begin, The Muscles Trio make their way down and sit at commentary. The Muscles boys taunted the Steel Curtain
from commentary but that didn’t stop the Curtain from controlling the match. The Muscles boys saw that their taunting
wasn’t having the effect they wanted so they decided to get physical. At the 7 minute mark, with all 4 men were in
the ring, Buzz nails Superquake with a slingshot suplex but then gets eye raked
blinding him. Starbuck was unloading on
Angry Jack and then got flung out of the ring.
The Muscles Trio then attacked Starbuck hitting him with a chair and
then hurling him into the steel steps.
They quickly ran back to commentary and tried to look innocent. The ref saw Starbuck on the outside and began
to count him out. Buzz recovered but was unable to help Starbuck get back in
the ring in time and therefore got counted out.
Ferguson and Angry Jack retain their spot in the World tag team
lineup. (7 min). After the match, the Muscles Trio attacked
and stomped on Buzz until Biceps Bannerman came back out for the save. Starbuck recovered and helped his team chase
the Muscles boys away. I’m sure the
Steel Curtain and Biceps Bannerman will have more than words for them.
MJ
is in the back with the World Tag Team Champions the Smashers. MJ says that the Steel Curtain are a joke as
they can’t even beat a bunch of circus clowns.
Tonight though, they take on the team of The Ryzing Storm – Travis and
Terra Ryzing. Smasher #1 says that it
will be a rrrrrrrrrrrush when they have their first win under their belts.
Smasher #2 asks if the fans can “dig that ya losers”.
We
go back to the ring for our Ladies match.
Lexy Flexx is taking on Spain’s own El Gato Negro. The black cat is not in the ladies top 10 so
she is challenging Lexy for her spot. This
one barely got going. Lexy basically
nullified a move from El Gato but then she got tossed out of the ring and got
counted out. El Gato Negro gets the win
in under two minutes. GM Max
McGillicutty comes out and says that is not the way things will be done in the
HCW so he says the two will have another match and it will be a no-count out
match. He tells the ref to restart the
match. This time it went a bit longer
but El Gato was totally in control until the Duchess came out. Lexy took the opportunity to distract the ref
while the Duchess hit El Gato Negro in the elbow with a chair. She looks hurt. Lexy then grabbed El Gato and locked in the DIS-ARM-HER
FUJIWARA ARMBAR and El Gato had no choice but to tap out. Lexy Flexx retains her spot in the
lineup. (11 min) The Duchess leaves the
ring smiling.
The
Crocodile Hunter is in the back and he says he wants to make sure he can
showcase his talents and wants to do that tonight when he challenges Perfect
Pecs Stoddard for his shot at the US Title.
Pecs walks over and towers over the Hunter. “What did you say little man? You want a shot at me? First, look at me then look at you..no
wait…don’t look at you. Look at me. I am pure specimen of perfection and if you
want to take THIS on, sure, I’ll humor you but don’t whine and complain after
I’ve annihilated you.” Pecs then walks
off.
It’s
time to go back to the ring. Next, Dude USA Mick Rude (#10 seed) challenges
Billy Robbins (#3 seed) for his spot in the US title lineup. Mick Rude came out and he’s a typical example
of a surfer. He’s in shape and he got
the attitude but I guess we need to see if he’s got the talent. Billy Robbins comes out and he looks like
he’s been put out with this match. It
doesn’t seem like he cares all that much.
Robbins nailed a slingshot suplex and thought he had it all wrapped up
until Dude dropped him with a Dude Awakening.
Billy then realized this was not going to be a cake walk. Dude would drop him with toe holds, single
leg takedowns and hip tosses. Billy had
no idea what hit him. Mick then locked
him in the surfboard and with nowhere to go, he had no choice but to tap out. Dude USA Mick Rude gets the win and moves up
in the rankings and Billy Robbins, defeated, moves down. (9 min)
Backstage,
The Ryzing Storm (Travis and Terra) say that tonight is their night and they
will walk out with the titles. MJ will
be a non-factor as they become the top team in the HCW.
We
go back to the ring for the confrontation between The Crocodile Hunter and Perfect
Pecs Stoddard for Pec’s title shot. Pecs
came down to the ring and posed for everyone and of course, he was booed. Croc comes out and he gets a pop and that
frustrates Stoddard. The Crocodile
Hunter shocked the world with his ability to move so quickly. Stoddard looked like he was standing still
next to Croc. Knife edge chops and a
vertical drop DDT kept Stoddard confused.
The Hunter started to set Pecs up for the Croc’s Throne but in an act of
desperation, Pecs hit a low blow. That
gave him a second to recover and then hit the White Noise Piledriver to get the
pin. Pecs wins the match and retains his
spot in the US title hunt. (11 min)
We
cut back to Max’s office and he is hosting the contract signing between the
British Crippler and Ravishing Raquel for the Ladies title. Max states that the match will be taking
place on the 6/26 show. Raquel asked why
they were waiting so long. Crippler
asked if Raquel was that eager to get her ass kicked. The two almost came to blows right then and
there. Max regained control and said
that the two of them cannot meet in singles action but if the Crippler wants to
team up with the Queen’s Court and if Raquel can find two teammates, they could
do either tag or 6 person tag teams.
Raquel signed the contract first and then the British Crippler did. Raquel stated that the Crippler wants the
hiatus so she can prepare to become a 1st time loser. The Crippler slapped Raquel across the face
and chaos ensued. Fortunately, there
were suits present (to witness the contract signing – not sure why they were
needed) and both ladies were separated pretty quickly. As Raquel was leaving (aka being forcibly
removed), she told the Crippler to polish up that belt nice as she was taking it
regardless.
In
the back, El Gato Negro with her arm wrapped up and on ice, confronted the
Duchess who just attacked her and went after her bad arm again. Man, I don’t know why but the Duchess REALLY
doesn’t care of El Gato Negro. Suits
from the back had to separate the two.
It’s
time for our Main Event and it will be a World Tag Team title match: Smashers (w/MJ) (champions) vs The Ryzing
Storm. Travis and Terra Ryzing made
their way to the ring first. They got an
ok reaction but nothing to write home about.
Next, the champs led by MJ came out and the booing was deafening. The champs flipped off the fans as they
walked down to the ring. It looked to me
like they were ready to tear the heads off of someone. For the first 5 minutes
of the match, the Ryzing Storm looked like they had the number of the
Smashers. In fact, Terra kept MJ from
interfering on a couple of occasions.
Terra hogged the ring for the first 10 minutes of the match and then
finally tagged his partner in. Smasher
#2 immediately caught him with a backbreaker and went for a pin only to get a 1
count. He tags in Smasher #1 who hits a
Russian legsweep. He went for the pin
but got a 2 count. Smasher #1 ran across
the ring and took out Terra. Smasher #2
picked up Travis and DESTROYED him with a powerbomb. He made the cover and got the 1, 2, 3. The Smashers are victorious in their first
title defense. The two with MJ stand
over an unconscious Travis Ryzing as the show comes to an end.
Thanks
for reading. Stay tuned for more action.
