HCW Wrestling Newsletter 2017 #558


Hello fans and welcome back to our wrestling newsletter. Our PPV is now less than a month away and the 3 day event is shaping up to be a fantastic show.  In addition to that, there will also be a Fanfest taking place earlier in the week and there will be an addition announced for the HCW Hall of Fame.  The latest HOF addition will be announced in the coming weeks.

The show starts off back in GM Max McGillicutty’s office.  The Mexicali Flyers arrive (Tornado en Fuego & El Dragon Insano).  Max thinks the Steel Curtain has been under the guise of the Flyers this entire time.  Max demands the Flyers unmask.  They refuse.  Max offers to have them do it in the privacy of his office and they still say no.  Max sighs and says that not only are they (the characters) fired but also whoever’s under those masks.  The Flyers leave as the Steel Curtain (Buzz and Starbuck Steel) walk up.  Max is perplexed.  Buzz Steel says that it was not cool to fire the Flyers just because he had bad intel.  Max tries to apologize and Starbuck says he doesn’t want to hear words but see actions.  Buzz demands a tag team tournament be held tonight with the winners getting a shot at the tag team champions.  Max agrees and says he’ll make it happen.  The Steel Curtain leave.

Pyro goes off and the show gets ready to begin.

Match #1 is the first match in the tag team tournament to see who goes on to challenge Pete & Magnum for the tag team belts.  First, Butch and Ferb Huber come out and are booed.  The Steel Curtain come out next and get a HUGE pop.  They waste no time and go right on the offensive.   Ferb tries for a Gator Roll but Buzz nullifies it.  He tags right out to Starbuck.  Ferb nails Starbuck with a sitout scoop slam piledriver and just as he was going for the pin, Buzz ran in and hurled him out of the ring.  He followed him out and hit the Buzz Cut on the floor.  Ferb was not able to get back up in time and ended up getting counted out.  The Steel Curtain advance after a countout win.  (2 min)

The Crocodile Hunter is backstage and says he has the perfect opponent for the Savior and it is none other than HCW’s own rabid vampire – Dr. Red Fang.  He laughs knowing that the Savior is not.

We head back to the ring for our next match which is the second in the tag team tournament.  First, the Golden Stars (Hollywood Star & the Gold Standard Bruce Biltmore) come out to a mixed reaction.  Next, the Desperados (El Chango & Leon Teremoto) come out and are booed.  They don’t care.  The Desperados just destroyed the Golden Star (66 to 19) and in a moment, that all changed after the Hollywood Star dragged Leon out of the ring and hit a spear on Leon against the unforgiving steel post.  Leon crumpled.  El Chango went out to try to help but he was not able to get him back into the ring in time.  The Desperados end up getting counted out.  The Golden Stars are one step closer to a shot at the tag team titles.  El Chango was pissed.  (8 min)

CJ then makes his way out to the ring and says that unfortunately Reid is not around as he doesn’t want to show his face (he actually was on the previous show) and says he has exclusive footage from Reid’s time in the slammer.  He asks the guys in the back to run the tape.  A video plays of a guy in jail (we never see his face) but it has the name (instead of a number) “Rothchild” on it.  There are LOTS of innuendos during the film and CJ and the fans have a great laugh.  CJ reminds Reid that it is not over between them and as soon as Reid has the BALLS to show up with him on a show, he’ll teach him a lesson.

The Axe is a backstage and he says that he’s officially announcing a match between him and Talon McFrost for the PPV.  He expects McFrost to show up and get his ass beaten like a government mule.

We head back to the ring for our first of 5 (if it goes that long) between Drew the Canadian Love Machine and Texas Wildfire.  If TW can win 3 of the 5, then he will get the title shot at the PPV.  TW comes out first and gets a huge pop.  Drew comes out next and his pop is just as loud.  The two men shake hands in the ring as the bell rings.  For the first 8 minutes, TW looked to be the stronger of the two but then Drew turned it up and then owned the rest of the match.  TW, to his credit, kept kicking out of whatever Drew threw at him.  At the 22 minute mark, Drew took TW down with a handstand headscissors.  Just as he was setting up for the Lover bomb, TW connected with a leaping DDT out of nowhere and hooking the leg, he got the 1-2-3.  Texas Wildfire wins this first of 5 and is on his way to earning a title shot. (Match of the night).  (22 min)

A quick video is shown highlighting lots of high spots executed and then ends with “Do not try this at home.”

Dr. Red Fang with his manager Ant Graham come out first.  Next, the Savior comes out and he looks nervous.  Savior has a mic and as he approaches the ring, he starts up.  “Now, this match made by Croc is nothing but a crock.  I know that Fang, you don’t want to really fight me do you?”  He offers the mic to Fang who shrugs and says “not really”.  Savior starts up again “And I don’t want to fight you good Dr. so what do you say that we both leave here without breaking a sweat so we can stick it to Croc.  What do you say?”  Fang looks at Ant Graham and then nods yes.  They both start to leave and the Savior turns telling them to ring the bell.  He then starts to beat down on Fang who immediately fights back.  We only get 3 minutes in before Ant accidentally slugs the ref resulting in a DQ finish.  The Hardcore Champion the Stache runs down and attacks Fang and the two of them brawl all the way to the back.  The Savior wins this one by DQ.  (3 ½ min)

Max states that the next match will determine who will be the #1 contenders to fight Pete the PUN-isher and Magnum Kone for the titles at the PPV.

It’s time for the main event.  First, the Golden Stars come out to booing from the fans.  Next, the Steel Curtain come out and the fans pop huge.  Just like in their last match, the Stars were not looking all that great so we still aren’t sure how they were able to advance but they did so here we are.  We join the match at the 20 minute mark.
