HCW Wrestling Newsletter 2016 #498 - Lead up to the PPV

Hello fans and welcome back to our newsletter.  This will be the final show before our PPV next Sunday.  In between then, we will have the first ever HCW Hall of Fame celebration that will be broadcast live from Colorado Springs, CO – the former home of the CSWA.  The show kicks off with some pyro and GM Max McGillicutty comes out on stage.  Max says Sonic Blade, the Stache, the Axe and Outback Oscar will have a fatal four way at the PPV to determine the next World Champion.  Max says this belt will not be achieved on a cheap win but on who kicks ass the best. 

The show kicks off with our first match.  Angry Jack Lawson comes out and says he’s (wait for it) Angry because he is not on the PPV and wants a match right now.  Ant Graham comes out and says he’d be happy to oblige.  Ant brings out Baron von Blood.  The Baron seemed a little angry too and he took it out on Jack.  Ant got involved (the ref seemed to turn a blind eye) and only helped the Baron strategically (for him though, strategy includes eye rakes, tripping among other infractions) inserting himself when he thought he was needed (actually was 4x in this match).  The Baron nailed a Blitzkrieg Stunner and this one was over.  Ant Graham pushes the ref away and raises the arm of the Baron.  (7 min)

We cut to the back where the Gold Standard Bruce Biltmore is challenging Dude USA for his title match against Chic Monroe.  Bruce doesn’t think Mick Rude has what it takes to become a champion.  Rude says he’s ready and willing to prove it in the ring.  Max walks over and says that Biltmore can only win the spot by pin or submission.

We move on to our next match which will have two of our Ladies superstars squaring off.  Sarona Reiher comes out to a mixed reaction from the crowd.  Her opponent, Jazz Emmett comes out and is met with the same reaction.  Jazz dominated the match and made Sarona look like a rookie.  She kept the offense up for 9 straight minutes.  The end came after Jazz hit the Bank Statement and made the merciful cover for the 1-2-3.  (9 min)

Magnum Kone, the King of Cones, is backstage talking to Max.  He says he’s glad everything worked out for everyone and asks to have a match tonight.  Max picks up a dart and throws it at a wall covered in superstar’s photos.  Sure enough, it lands on Rad Gumbo.  Max says he can have his rematch against Gumbo and says that he wants to liven it up.  He tells Magnum that it will be a street fight rules match.  He tells Magnum to go get ready and he’ll break the news to Gumbo.

We go back to the ring for tag team action.  First, Niven and Leiton Snake make their way out to the ring.  Next, their opponents the Desperados make their way out.  The four of them start slugging it out before the bell even rang.  Finally the ref regains control and we are underway.  The Snake Brothers started off with double teaming on El Chango but it didn’t last long.  Leon gets tagged in and cinches in what appears to be the most horrific headlock ever seen.  Niven hits him with a tilt-a-whirl slam and Leon tags out to El Chango but not before dropping Niven with a superkick.  El Chango climbs the top rope and nails a shooting star press.  He makes the cover and gets the 3 count before Leiton even realized what was happening.  The Desperados get a win and chase off the Snake Brothers.  El Chango gets on the mic and says they want whoever walks out of the PPV with the tag titles.  (5 min)

Max meets up with Rad Gumbo and breaks the news to him.  Rad is not happy about it but is even less when Max tells him MJ is not allowed at ringside.  Max walks off as Rad starts kicking things.

We go back to the ring for our PPV match challenge.  The Gold Standard Bruce Biltmore comes out first and he is booed.  Dude USA Mick Rude comes out with “Real American” (Hogan’s and before that, Windham & Rotundo’s) old theme.  We’re not sure he has permission to use it but we’ll see what happens.  Dude was practically destroying Biltmore.  It was almost embarrassing.  Rude just toyed with him and took his time in trying to go for a pin or anything.  Biltmore started to battle back and he threw Mick out of the ring.  Knowing that Bruce can only win the spot by pin or submission, he started to walk away.  He ended up getting counted out.  Bruce gets a win but he does not get to go to the PPV.  (19 ½ min)

There seems to be a backstage altercation between Tag Team champs the Smashers and 5th Column members Karl Braun & Oswald Zimmerman.  Braun says that he knows the champs are defending the belts in a week but they feel they deserve the shot and challenge the Smashers here tonight.  MJ accepts on behalf of his team.

We go back to the ring for our next match.  Rad Gumbo makes his way out as “Gumbo 7:30 says its suppa time bitch” blares over the loudspeakers.  Magnum Kone comes out with Haagen and Daas who rush down to the ring to hand out ice cream.  Magnum is wearing his shirt that reads “8:13 means it’s time for dessert”.  Rad is still pissed off for what he claims is Magnum stealing his catchphrase (hang on, didn’t he steal it from someone else?)  These two went at it just like in their other battles.  Rad took control early on but after being hit with the Ice Cream Sandwich (splash), Magnum took over and OWNED him.  Magnum just beat the hell out of Rad and try as he might, he could not stop the King of Cones…that is until MJ came out.  Yes, the guy who was banned from ringside snuck down to the ring.  Rad was on the receiving end of being choked with a microphone cord until he was suplexed out of the ring.  MJ got the ref’s attention and after being reprimanded, Rad used that time to hit Kone with a low blow and then blasted him in the head with the time keepers bell drawing blood.  He then climbed the top rope and jumped driving the bell into Kone’s throat.  He discarded the bell and made the cover.  The ref counted 1…2…3.  Rad Gumbo stole a win and he quickly left with MJ to celebrate his second win over the King of Cones.  Magnum had to be helped from the ring.  (24 min)  

Max comes out and says that tonight’s main event will be a Fatal 4 Way to see who gets to take Ivan on for the TV title.  Max says the participants include The Shockmaster, Jerry Saunders, former champion the Crocodile Hunter and ‘the Elitist’ Reid Rothchild.

The Smashers vs Karl Braun & Oswald Zimmerman.  The 5th Column come out first with Ant Graham and they are pacing like caged animals.  The Smashers come out next with MJ.  I don’t think they’re too happy with MJ for agreeing to this match.  The champs seemed to hold their own especially after MJ took care of Ant Graham.  After what seemed to be a pretty even match through 17 minutes changed after the champs double teamed Oswald for 2 rounds.  Just as Oswald was going for a move, MJ grabbed his hair and yanked him down hard.  Smasher #2 made the cover and with his foot on the ropes and a handful of tights, he got the pin.  The Champs looked good in this match as they head into the PPV.  (20 min)

A video airs of Ivan regaining the TV title after defeating the Crocodile Hunter.  Ivan had some choice words for Reid.

It is time for our Main Event:  A Fatal 4 Way for the TV title:  Reid vs Shockmaster vs Jerry Saunders vs the Crocodile Hunter.  This was a free for all with everyone trying to take each other out.  The Shockmaster disposed of the Crocodile Hunter as Reid took out Jerry Saunders.  The final few minutes were just these two guys beating the crap out of each other.  Saunders kept Croc on the outside and didn’t let him back into the ring.  Reid dropkicks the knee of the Shockmaster and then locks in the Figure Four Reid Lock in the middle of the ring.  Shockmaster did something ‘shocking’…he tapped out.  Reid Rothchild wins this one and will go on to the PPV to meet Ivan Dragovich for the TV title.  His celebration is cut off when Ivan runs down and drops him with the Accolade.  Ivan stands over Reid holding the TV title as the show comes to an end.

Hang on…there appears to be one more segment.  We head bat to Max’s office and he is there with the owners and it seems like they are on a phone call.   Hang on…we recognize that voice.  The Owners are talking to the WWE’s Vince McMahon.  Vince asks if they are ready to come back to the bargaining table but Mr. Bychowski says “not at this time but I have a request.  I would like to get back the use of the names of my old federations the HWF and CSWA.  My intention is not to resurrect them but have the rights so they can be acknowledged during the HOF speech without causing any more friction.”  Mr. Meyers adds that he knows deep down it wasn’t Vince who buried the HWF and CSWA, but says that doing this, it would play an important part WHEN they want to come back to that bargaining table.  Vince says he will have his lawyers write up legal documentation stating he is giving Mr B and Mr M the rights to the names HWF and CSWA back to them but only for the purposes in “discussing the past” and that the two federations cannot be “resurrected”.  The call ended with Vince adding “Hope to see you gentlemen again soon.”


As a reminder, there is no wrestling card on Wed.  The Hall of Fame ceremony will be Friday and the PPV on Sunday.  Stay tuned.
