HCW Wrestling Newsletter 2017 #570 – PPV fallout


Hello fans and welcome back to our newsletter.  Well, it was not unexpected that there would be fallout from the PPV.  On Day 1, CJ had his ankle injured by Prestige Inc in a dastardly attack.  Fortunately, it was not broken but he was granted time off to go heal.

Also taking time off is Phat Sol and former World Champion Drew the Canadian Love Machine.  Both men, well, more Drew than Phat, had a successful run but with the births of their newborns, they were both granted a vacation.

The Stache chose Hollywood over HCW so Max decided that he would be handed a 30 day suspension (retroactive to 5/1) and he can re-evaluate his priorities.

Handsome Hernandez has been fired.  He was spouting off at the fanfest and was very unprofessional backstage during the event.  Max realized that there was not much of a future for him so he just terminated his contract.

Also heading to the unemployment line are Ms. (former Queen) Beckett and the British Crippler.  Beckett lost her match against the court and the Duchess was basically paying the Crippler’s salary and she was unhappy with her performance so she was terminated.

Ravishing Raquel comes out with Master Bull to start off the show and she tells GM Max McGillicutty that Ruby has infringed on her “Ravishing” moniker long enough and it was time for one of them to go.  Ruby Princess comes out and says she’s ready and willing to see Raquel finally leave and agreed to the match.  For 10 minutes the two of them went toe to toe but after that, Ruby only got in two offensive moves over the next 7 minutes.  Ruby was getting ready to hit the Ruby’s Simply Ravishing but Raquel reversed it and hit her own Simply Ravishing.  Raquel rolled her up and got the 3 count.  Ravishing Raquel wins the match and now Ruby Princess is out of a job.  Raquel and Bull leave a distraught Ruby in the ring to say goodbye to her fans.  (17 min)

Backstage, Madame Jade runs into Taylor Bella.  Taylor has her briefcase with her Ladies title contract in it.  Jade says that she wants, no, deserves it more.  Taylor laughs at her and says she can try and take it from her.  In walks Taylor’s new manager Figgy Newton and he tells Jade not to underestimate the lesser known Bella as she is the one who is the spitfire in that family.  Madame Jade asks who the hell he is.  Figgy responds “Well sister, I’m the connection to the Avenue of the Stars – that’s Hollywood in case you didn’t know.  The people I manage will go straight to the top – both here and over on the west coast.  I’m the manager of managers.  Yes, I am loud and I carry a megaphone like my predecessor Jimmy Hart – ‘the Mouth of the South’ did but I’m not from the south.  If fact, I’m ‘the Mouth’.  When I talk, people have no choice but to listen.”  Jade stared at him for a moment with her brow wrinkled and then turned and walked away. 

We head back to the ring for our next match.  Master Bull comes out first and introduces TNT.  TNT comes out to a mixed reaction from the crowd but when Bull prompts them to cheer louder, they direct their venomous retorts to him.  Next, ScooterJ comes out and once he gets to the ring, he takes a mic.  “You know, TNT, back when you were Turnip, (TNT yells “that name no longer has any meaning for me”) that he was his first opponent.   Now that TNT has “grown up”, he got himself a mouthpiece who is probably taking all his money and barely leaving enough for rent.  ScooterJ says TNT doesn’t need Bull.  TNT invites ScooterJ into the ring and the two go at it.  The two men were pretty even for the first couple minutes of the match but then Bull tried to get involved and got sacked for his trouble.  TNT seemed lost without Bull’s guidance and after hitting ScooterJ with an uppercut, ScooterJ bodyslammed TNT and using the ropes for leverage, got the 1-2-3.  ScooterJ wins the match.  Prestige Inc. members Superstar Chic Monroe and Bishop Ripley hit the ring and beat down on ScooterJ for putting his hands on Bull.  After he was sufficiently beaten down, TNT hits ScooterJ with the TNT.  Prestige Inc. are joined by Bull and the team stands victorious over ScooterJ.  (14 min)

Steel Curtain are backstage and actually demand that Max give Pete/Magnum their rematch today.  Buzz Steel says that Pete & Magnum, if they can work together, can fail once more as a team.  Starbuck leans in and says “Word”.

We head back to the ring for our next match.  First, Madame Jade comes out to a pop from the crowd.  Next, Figgy Newton comes out and via his megaphone, tells the lazy sheep to stand up and cheer the ‘real Bella’ and introduces Taylor and she comes out acting all regal.  Taylor gets in the ring and is told by the ref that her title contract is on the line in this match.  It didn’t seem to faze her.  Jade began off strong.

Taylor did not do well in the match but she walked out with her contract intact.  Figgy tells her that his surprise announcement is that he secured her an appearance on the reality show “Total Bitches”.  (Turns out, Taylor only had the one appearance and did not return as she was NOT the bitchiest person there).  Taylor announces that she is cashing in her title shot at the supershow on 5/21.  She doesn’t care if it’s Starr Vixen, the current champ or if the Duchess regains it…she will be the next Ladies Champion.

A vignette airs of a guy walking down Hollywood Blvd.  We hear the familiar clink of spurs hitting the pavement and we assume it’s the Stache (we only see his back).  As he’s walking, a little kid walks up and says “Hi Stache”.  Stache stops and gives the little buckaroo his hat and keeps walking.  He runs into some more fans and after a moment, hands them his spurs and jacket.  He keeps walking until he stops in front of a barber shop.  He looks in the window but his reflection is distorted except for, yep, you guessed it, his stache.  He says “Well, I guess now is as good of a time as any” and walks in.

It’s time for our main event.  First, the challengers Pete the PUN-isher and Magnum Kone come out but they do it separately.  They can’t seem to stand each other.  It’s interesting to note their manager the Ambassador is not there.  Next, the Tag Team Champions the Steel Curtain (Buzz and Starbuck Steel) come out but the fans’ reaction has soured a bit (probably because of their changing attitude).  The match begins immediately and the tension between Pete and Magnum can be cut with a knife.  After arguing who was going to start, Pete jumped in first.  Didn’t matter what he did as the Curtain beat the tar out of him.  He would blind tag Magnum in who would take his fair share of beating before bringing Pete back in the hard way.   Pete would eventually blind tag Magnum back in and Magnum is about done with him.  Pete slaps Magnum across the face before pulling his neck and head down and snapping it across the top rope.  Magnum staggered back into the ring and Starbuck hit him with the Round the World (bouncing his head off of all 4 turnbuckles).  Starbuck made the cover and got the 1-2-3.  The Steel Curtain retain and the fans are not all that thrilled with how they got the victory.  (24 min)  The Steel Curtain posed in the ring as the show came to an end.


Thanks for reading.  Things are already beginning to heat up around here so be sure to come on back.
