Hello
fans and welcome back to our newsletter.
It’s been a week since the PPV and as expected, there have been a lot of
grumblings going on and where there’s smoke, there usually is fire. Before we get into all that, the show kicks
off with pyro and a familiar face comes out on stage. It’s Southern Belle. She gets a welcome back chant from the crowd
and she heads to the ring.
Belle
asks for a mic and tells the fans that it is great to be back in the HCW. After some soul searching, she decided this
is where she needs to be. She says that
although she’s back, she will not be returning to the ring. Fans chant “one more match” and she says
“maybe, one day” but for now, she is back in a manager capacity. Over the next few weeks, she will scout the
Ladies division to see who she wants to lead to glory. She has her eye on someone already but wants
to see how things play out. Belle says
that the search begins now.
She
exits the ring and goes to sit at commentary as our first match of the night
kicks off. Kimberly Kiccass comes out
first to a decent reaction. Next, Taylor
Bella comes out and she is accompanied by Madame Jade who is on crutches. Jade is trying to talk to Taylor but Taylor
looks focused and ready for her match.
Taylor did well for the first 6 minutes of the match but finally Madame
Jade yelling at her “I just want to talk” finally got to her and Kimberly took
advantage. Kimberly took the match to
Taylor and started making headway. Jade,
realizing that Taylor would not talk to her until the match was over decided to
step in. Kimberly hit Taylor with the
Christo but Taylor hits her with a dropkick.
At the same time, Jade pulled down the top rope and Kimberly went
sailing over it and crashed to the floor.
The ref made the count but Kimberly couldn’t get back in in time and got
counted out. Taylor wins this one by
countout. Jade says “Now will you talk
to me?” but Taylor just made her way to the back and Jade slowly followed. (10 ½ min)
Backstage,
Dr. Red Fang and his manager Ant Graham are complaining that the Fiend cheated
(wait, what…in a hardcore match?) and he demands a rematch. Fang says that he will destroy all opponents
until he gets his title shot. “Vampire
Lunges for Everyone!” Fang exclaims.
We
head back to the ring for our next match.
Leiton and Niven Snake make their way out to the ring first. They are then followed out by the Ambassador
who announces their competitors are Phat Sol and ‘Red Hot’ Lucas Johnston. The trio walk to the ring and get ready for
action. For the first 8 minutes of the
match, Phat and Lucas owned the ring.
The Ambassador provided what they needed to tear into their opponents
but after a miscommunication between Phat and Lucas, the Snake’s took
over. They took turns isolating their
opponents and started to make a comeback.
They could not get a pin however as Phat or Lucas continued to make the
save. As the clock was running down,
Niven hit a leaping clothesline but the Ambassador ended up tripping him. He then handed Lucas a foreign object. Just before he could use it though, the bell
rang bringing this one to a draw finish.
Phat got in the ring and took the object from Lucas and used it to bust
open both Niven and Leiton. The
Ambassador applauded Phat’s ingenuity and raised the arms of both men before
leaving. (20 min draw)
Back
in Max’s office, El Chango walks in and tells Max that his tag team partner Leon
Teremoto needed the night off so he wants a singles match tonight. Max says he will make it happen.
We’re
back in the ring for our next match.
First, Magnum Kone, the King of Cones makes his way to the ring
accompanied by Haagen and Daas and they hand out ice cream to the fans at
ringside. They are interrupted by Wilber
Townsend who calls this a pathetic excuse to cater to the masses. Wilber asks Magnum if he thinks the fans
really give a damn about him or if they’re on the gravy train because of the
free frozen treats. Wilber pushes enough
of Magnum’s buttons to get him to agree to an impromptu match. Wilber
did not play by normal rules and he cheated everywhere he could and then played
innocent when he got caught. We think
that what Wilber told him really got the King of Cones thinking and began second
guessing himself. He did managed to make
it to the 20 minute mark and after nullifying a short arm clothesline from
Wilber, the bell rang. Magnum didn’t get
a second to rest as ‘the Ragin Cajun’ Rad Gumbo ran in from the audience and
dropped the King of Cones. Gumbo had a
brief stare down with Wilber but posed over Magnum. He then dropped a piece of paper on
Magnum. We got a look at it and it was a
contract for the two of them to meet in a Hell in a Cell. Interesting.
(20 min draw)
We
cut to the back where Clarkus Kentus is interviewing Ivan Dragovich. Ivan says he is declaring war on Ant Graham
and the 5th Column. When
asked if he was going to seek out help, Ivan replied that he realizes he may
not be trustworthy based on prior actions so if he has to do this solo, he
will.
We
head back to the ring for our next match.
First, the Wraith comes out to booing from the fans. Next, all dressed up in crocodile gear and
makeup comes the Crocodile Hunter. He
gets a big pop and that infuriates the Wraith.
Wraith attacks Croc before the bell.
Croc immediately shrugged it off and took the match hard to the
Wraith. Wraith could not believe the
ferocity coming from Croc. At one
point, he thought he had enough and tried to leave but Croc followed him out of
the ring and then whipped him into the stairs.
Wraith went tumbling over the steps and then was seen holding his
ankle. Croc threw him back in the ring
and the Wraith tried to beg him off but a moment’s hesitation was met with a
low blow. The Wraith laughed until Croc
pulled Wraith’s leg out from beneath him and locked in an ankle lock. The Wraith screamed in pain and to avoid
further injury, he tapped out. The
Crocodile Hunter wins this one. He
celebrates briefly and then leaves. The
Wraith is booed as he limps to the back.
(10 min).
Back
in his office, GM Max McGillicutty announces the main event will have ‘The
Elitist’ Reid Rothchild defending the TV title against the “dark storm” in
Travis Ryzing.
El
Chango makes his way to the ring and awaits his opponent. Much to his surprise, out comes the
Shockmaster. El Chango laughs a bit out
loud and then motions for the Shockmaster to get in the ring with him. El Chango was surprised when the Shockmaster
went toe to toe with him for 9 minutes.
He decided to try something different.
He went for the Phoenix Splash but it got reversed and Shockmaster tried
for some elbow smashes in the corner but that too was reversed and El Chango
dropped him with a flying spinning heel kick.
He then picked him up and nailed the Diamond Dust. He went for the pin and got the 1-2-3. El Chango wins this one. (11 min)
Backstage,
the World Champion the Stache makes an appearance and talks with Larry Morton. The Stache talks about how King CJ, afraid of
defending his title, found a reason not to wrestle him. He continued talking about the high-end
talent in Outback Oscar, Sonic Blade and the Axe. He says that most likely his first title
defense will be against one of these men.
When asked about the Wraith, Stache said “I’m not through with him but
he is NOT even remotely qualified to fight for this title.” The segment ended with the Stache posing with
his title.
It
is time for our Main event. First, the
challenger Travis ‘Dark Storm’ Ryzing makes his way to the ring to a small buzz
from the crowd. Music hits and the fans
pop as Master Bull, Ravishing Raquel and the TV Champion Reid Rothchild make
their way down to the ring. GM Max
McGillicutty comes out and says he wants this to be a best of 3 falls, 30
minute time limit match. Reid
immediately locks in the Figure Four Reid Lock but Travis makes it to the
ropes. Reid turns and gloats but then
gets caught up in a Power Full Nelson.
Reid freaks out and instead of waving, he (inadvertently) tapped the arm
of Travis and the ref took that as a tap out and awarded the fall to
Travis. Master Bull started freaking
out on the outside of the ring. A very
pissed off Reid turned up the heat and 8 minutes later, the Reid Leg drop scored
him a 3 count. Now both men are tied at
1 fall each. Just as soon as the bell
rang, Reid went in and DESTROYED Travis.
He beat him from pillar to post and everything in between. He barely let the kid up for a breath of air. Reid consistently went for the leg/knee of
Travis trying to weaken it. Finally,
when he thought the damage was done, he locked in the Figure Four Reid Lock and
Travis tapped out almost immediately.
Reid wins the match and retains his title. Master Bull and Ravishing Raquel join him in
the ring and celebrate the win.
After
the match Raquel asks for a mic and states she almost cashed in at the PPV but
chose not to only because she didn’t want the Duchess to complain about losing
after fighting one match already. When
she does cash in, she will expect the champ to be at the top of her game and
that way when she wins, the Duchess can’t say crap. Eventually they all leave.
GM
Max comes back out and says that the next show will be a Labor Day super show and
says that he will host ‘open tryouts’ for anyone who wants to try for a shot at
a contract. We look forward to seeing if
anyone wants to give it a shot. Also, he
says that Magnum Kone has signed the contract and at the super show, Magnum vs
Rad Gumbo in a Hell in the Cell will be our Main Event.
Stay
Tuned. More action to follow.
