Hello
fans and welcome back to our newsletter.
Today’s show will be a tag team tournament to determine who will go on
to meet the Smashers for the World Tag Team titles at the Halloween Scream PPV. Let’s get right to the matches.
Round 1 Matches:
Match 1:
The Desperados vs the Ryzing Storm
The
Desperados win this match easily, with quick tags and double teaming for 10
mins with Leon Teremoto executing his finisher the Gorilla Hug for the
submission at the 13th minute of the match.
Match 2: Superquake Ferguson & Angry
Jack Lawson vs Niven & Leiton Snake
SuperQuake
and Lawson win handily, in 5 mins with Quake nailing the splash on Niven Snake
after miscommunication by the Snakes.
Match 3:
Outback Oscar & The Crocodile Hunter vs Ferb & Junior Huber
This
was a brutal match but the Aussies get the win in the 19th minute with both
Outback Oscar and Junior Huber wearing Crimson Masks. Paramedics had to come to cart out all 4 men
after the match. We have a feeling that
this rivalry is just beginning, and is going to get worse.
Match 4:
Wilbur Townsend & Butch Huber vs Baron von Blood & Karl Braun
Another
vicious match ending with bloody faces and broken bodies as Wilbur Townsend
executes the Go to Sleep, not once, not twice, but three times on a steel chair
while the ref was out, on Baron von Blood in the 18th minute.
Match 5:
Hollywood Star & ‘the Gold Standard’ Bruce Biltmore vs Jesse
California & Dude USA Mick Rude
In a
high flying and highly technical match, the new team of the California Connection
wins over the team of Star and Biltmore as Biltmore submitted to a bodyscissors
sleeperhold by Jesse California when the Hollywood Star was distracted by Arrow
star, Stephen Amell and his guest from Legends of Tomorrow, Dominic Purcell.
Match 6:
Haagen & Daas vs Adam Jameson & Billy Robbins
The
most lackluster of the matches with both teams having a hard time getting
started that ended by injury when Daas tried to execute a German Suplex off the
turnbuckle and his knee gave out in a horrible display. Both teams stopped wrestling and called for
paramedics in a great display of sportsmanship despite the lackluster
match. The winners, due to injury are
Jameson and Robbins.
Match 7: Oswald Zimmerman & Ivan
Dragovich (put together by GM Max McGillicutty) vs Handsome Hernandez &
Wendell Hammerschmidt.
Its
former team-mates the Iron Cross and Ivan being forced to team together to take
on Handsome Hernandez and Wendell Hammerschmidt. The ref, if he had control for a minute,
would be giving him 45 seconds too much credit.
The match took place more on the outside of the ring than it did
inside. High flying from the ring to the
concrete, and prodigious use of the steel steps and well as destruction of the
Spanish announce table as mayhem ruled.
Finally, the teams returned to the ring only to have a battered Ivan
Dragovich get finished by the Arm-Breaker in the 18th minute by Handsome
Hernandez. After the match, Oswald
attacked Ivan and the two men fought to the back.
Match 8:
Muscles Weasley & McGuire vs the Steel Curtain (Buzz & Starbuck
Steel)
In a
rematch to end all rematches, the Muscles Boys, with Muscles Thorpe banned from
ringside and warned that if he makes an appearance from the back, the Muscle
Boys would be DQ’ed and suspended. The
rivals wasted absolutely no time in bringing the fight to one another with
Weasley and Buzz Steel take up the first 10 minutes of the match, with Steel
getting the better of Weasley. A hot tag
to Starbuck kept Weasley in there until the 16th minute, before he raked the
eyes of Starbuck to get the tag to McGuire.
But a double team and the execution of both Steel finishers and in the
18th minute, the Steel Curtain end their rivalry with the Muscles Trio and
advance.
Round 2
Match 1:
The Desperados vs Superquake Ferguson & Angry Jack Lawson
Superquake
and Jack did not have such an easy time with this one. Multiple time HWF/CSWA tag team champs El
Chango and Leon Teremoto were a well-oiled machine whereas Jack and Ferguson struggled
after about 5 min. El Chango gets the
win with the Diamond Dust in 14 min on Jack.
Could they go all…the…way?
Match 2:
Outback Oscar & The Crocodile Hunter vs Butch Huber & Wilber
Townsend
A
brawl from the get-go, hardly any technique could be found in this match. Blood was spilt. Huber & Oscar spent most of the match
fighting on the outside of the ring.
Wilber gets the win on Croc with the Go to Sleep. 12 min
Match 3: Dude USA Mick Rude & Jesse California vs
Adam Jameson & Billy Robbins
Lot
of high flying from all 4 men. Handsome
Hernandez made his presence known but Billy fights him off. He turns back around and Mick Rude nails the
Dude Awakening to score the pin. 17
min. AJ and Billy were not happy the way
this one finished. Billy could be heard
saying that Hernandez will get his.
Match 4:
Handsome Hermandez & Wendell Hammerschmidt vs the Steel Curtain
Hernandez
kept watching over his shoulder and not paying attention during the match. Wendell gets dumped outside the ring by Starbuck. Billy comes down and distracts Hernandez and
Buzz hits the Buzzkill (insuguri). He
tags out and Starbuck hits the Shooting Starbuck to score the pin. 8 min
Round 3
Match 1:
The Desperados vs Butch Huber & Wilber Townsend
The
technical expertise and speed of the Desperados kept Huber and Wilber on the
defensive. Leon ends up hitting his head
on the steel post busting him open but that didn’t faze him. In fact, the blood made Leon a little more
vicious. Wilber was on the receiving end
until he made the hot tag to Butch.
Butch came in only to get caught in the Gorilla Hug. Wilber tried to come back in but El Chango
dropped him with a superkick. Butch
submits. 17 min.
Match 2:
Dude USA Mick Rude & Jesse California vs The Steel Curtain
This
one saw no dirty tricks, no short cuts; only mutual respect however that didn’t
stop the Steel curtain from owning this match.
The tag team specialists continued the form that got them this far. Buzz connects with a flying body press after
bouncing off the ropes to get the 3 count pinning Dude USA. All 4 men shook hands afterwards although the
California Dreamers were disappointed.
10 min.
Round 4
The
Desperados vs the Steel Curtain
Promo
The
Steel Curtain are backstage and they cut a quick promo. Buzz starts off. “You come after us with a head butt; we hit
you with an arm bar. You hit us with a
pair of brass knuckles, we hit you with a steel chair. You put one of us in a Gorilla Hug and we
hit you with the Shooting Starbuck. THAT
is the Steel Curtain way.” Starbuck
leans in and delivers his new catchphrase… “Word”.
These
two teams know each other very well. It
seems that the 10 minutes that the Desperados had off refreshed and revitalized
them whereas the Steel Curtain was still recovering from their last match. The Desperados isolated Buzz and kept him
from making the tag. After 10 minutes,
Buzz hits Leon with the Buzz Cut but instead of going for the pin, he makes the
hot tag to Starbuck. ‘Buck cleans house
and starts to take control of the match but the Desperados retake control. El Chango goes for a superplex but Starbuck
nullifies it and then hits El Chango with the Starplex (slingshot suplex) to
get the win. 25 min.
Just
as the show is coming to an end, the World Tag Team Champions the Smashers come
out and attempt to go to the ring but MJ stops them. MJ starts talking into his mic.
“I
said that it would take a miracle for you to ever see this team in the ring for
gold but I guess miracles do in fact happen.
As much as I want, I could send these guys down now and prove a
point…one that everyone already knows and that is that THESE two are the ONLY
Champs but we’re going to let you heal up and be at 100% because we don’t want
any excuses when the REAL champs beat your sorry asses in the middle of the
steel cage. When that happens, the world
will know who the TRUE Champions are.”
With
that, the show comes to a close. Stay
tuned…more to come.
