HCW Wrestling Newsletter 2017 #586


Hello fans and welcome back to our newsletter.  Well, today’s show seems to have gotten a bit more interesting.  Prior to the start of the show, Ravishing Raquel walked in on a meeting between Master Bull and the rest of Prestige Inc.  Raquel demanded to know why Bull pulled her from the last show.  Master Bull said he didn’t have time to discuss it right now.  “The Elitist” Reid Rothchild walked over and politely asked her to leave so they could discuss business.  Raquel stormed out of the room.  As she walked around backstage pacing, ScooterJ walked over.  She immediately went on the defensive preparing for some sort of attack but ScooterJ basically told her he wasn’t here to fight.  He said that he has just as much of an issue with Prestige Inc. as she does right now.  ScooterJ says “I’ve been thinking about it and maybe, just maybe, you should be the third member of our team challenging for the 6 man titles on Sunday.”  Raquel gives him a look that says “Really?” and ScooterJ says “It was only a thought.  If not, well, maybe you should go after another belt.”  Raquel stares at him and sarcastically asks “And what belt would that be?  The Ladies titles is already on the line.”  ScooterJ shakes his head and says “I wasn’t talking about that one.”  He slides her a flyer promoting the PPV on Sunday and points at a name.  She looks up at him in shock and ScooterJ walks away and says “Think about it”.  Raquel looks at the flyer and then back up and back at the flyer again.  “Maybe…” she mutters and then walks off.

The show kicks off with our first title match of the evening.  El Chango makes his way out first to a pop from the crowd.  Next, the TV Champion Biceps Bannerman comes out and he is in a foul mood.  The fans mock him and he threatens to hit a couple of them.  He grabbed one kid’s El Chango sign and tore it into many pieces.  Biceps then mockingly laughed in the kid’s face before walking away (btw, the kid did not cry but actually seemed honored that it was his sign that was taken and destroyed on TV).  The ref reminds us this is a No DQ match with a 30 minute time limit.  Biceps gets in the ring and immediately goes after El Chango.  El Chango was waiting for him and just destroyed the champ.  El Chango was on fire and Biceps couldn’t do anything to stop him.  El Chango went for the first pin attempt but Biceps powered out of it.  El Chango kept up the onslaught and eventually tossed Biceps out of the ring.  He followed him out, grabbed a steel chair but Biceps dropped him with a clothesline.  Biceps then grabbed the chair and smacked El Chango in the back 3 times.  He then rolled him back into the ring.  He picked up El Chango and locked in the Biceps Crunch.  El Chango struggled but the pain was too great and he had no choice but to tap out.  Biceps drops him and takes his title and holds it high in victory and parades around the ring.  Biceps motions like he’s going to inflict more damage on El Chango and grabs the chair from the outside of the ring.  He lays it on the mat.  He goes to pick up El Chango but El Chango quickly slaps on a reverse headlock and then drops him face first onto the steel chair knocking him out.  El Chango takes a mic says he can’t challenge for the title anymore but after this, he doesn’t think Biceps will let it go so the fans will see one more match between the two.  El Chango smiles and leaves the ring.  Biceps eventually regains consciousness and is furious.  He grabs his title and leaves.  (12 min for the match; 5 additional for the segment)

Backstage, the Fiend is being interviewed for his upcoming match against the evil vampire (bot) Dr. Red Fang and his jerk of a manager Ant Graham.  The Fiend says that he and the hardcore title are “old friends” and once he defeats Fang and reclaims his title, all will be as it should be.  From elsewhere, we hear “Get Him!” and Fang runs in attacking the Fiend.  The two brawl for a moment but it is quickly broken up.  As all eyes were on Fang, no one saw Ant Graham sneak over (coward) and smack the Fiend with his cane.  Graham stands tall and laughs and Fang comes over and they stand of the Fiend laughing.  Fang ends the segment with a scream of “VAMPIRE LUNGES FOR EVERYONE!”

Next up, Southern Belle makes her way out to the ring to a decent pop from the crowd.  She calls out her PPV opponent the Ladies Champion El Gato Negro.  Belle tells her the two of them should not wait for the PPV but should have their match here and now.  Before El Gato can respond, GM Max McGillicutty comes out and says that their singles match has to wait till Sunday but they can meet in tag team action.  Max then calls out Scarlett Phoenix to be El Gato’s partner and Taylor Bella to be Belle’s.  Once all four ladies were in the ring, the match began.  Belle and El Gato both started off but eventually tagged their tag team partners in.  El Gato and Scarlett Phoenix were cleaning house on their opponents with Belle and Taylor not getting along all that well.  After El Gato hit Belle with the Tailspin, she tagged in Scarlett who was immediately double teamed.  Taylor hit a sunset flip and then Belle hurled Scarlett out of the ring.  Taylor snuck out and went under the ring.  Just as Scarlett was trying to get back in, Taylor grabbed her leg and pulled her under the ring.  The ref, not knowing where Scarlett went, began his count and once he reached 10, he counted Scarlett out and awarded the match to Belle and Taylor (who by this time had surfaced).  El Gato was not happy as Belle and Taylor strutted around the ring doing a victory lap.  Scarlett finally made her way out and snuck in the ring and went after Taylor who immediately bolted leaving Southern Belle alone.  Scarlett chased Taylor to the back.  Belle looked around but didn’t see the Ladies Champion.  Her eyes went wide and she slowly turned around and saw El Gato standing there.  Belle immediately exited the ring and made her way up the ramp.  El Gato eventually followed after shaking hands with the fans at ringside.  (9 min for the match; 5 extra for the rest of the segment)

Master Bull makes his way out to the ring with the 6 man tag team champions Prestige Inc. – Bishop Ripley, Superstar Chic Monroe and Jesse California.  Bull calls out ScooterJ and TNT and asks if they’ve learned how to count to 3 yet.  They laugh.  ScooterJ says he did find the 3rd person for their team and that person has a history with Reid and Bull.  Bull scoffs at him.  ScooterJ then says he wants to see who that person is and then introduces…The Axe!  Axe comes out Bull goes ballistic.  Axe smiles and nods his head.  They motion they will be taking the belts and then leave.  Bull and Prestige Inc follow.

Backstage, the Steel Curtain (Buzz and Starbuck Steel) are being interviewed about their upcoming title match.  Buzz says that Hoff n Spicy are a flash in the pan and they will never be good enough to carry their jock straps.  Starbuck says that when you take crap and repackage it, it’s still crap.  DJ and Hoffmeister?  Really?  Both men laugh and Starbuck gets serious and says that there is no way they are leaving the PPV without their belts.  Buzz leans over and says “Word!”

The next match on the card is Red McNulty with his manager MJ taking on the newest addition to the 6 man tag team match – the Axe.  Axe comes out to an unusually loud pop.  I guess the fans are happy he’s teaming with TNT and ScooterJ to take on Prestige Inc.  To say that that this was an ass-kicking would be an insult to all ass-kickings.  This was more of a massacre.  Axe demolished McNulty.  MJ tried to interfere early and Axe took him out with the Axe.  Axe destroyed McNulty and polished it off with a huge belly to belly suplex.  Axe makes the cover and gets the easy 3 count.  With no time to celebrate, Prestige Inc (Jesse California, Bishop Ripley and Chic Monroe) with Master Bull come down and surround the ring.  Just when they get ready to pounce, TNT and ScooterJ run down with chairs and slide in the ring.  They motion for Prestige Inc to try and get in the ring and as they try, ScooterJ and TNT swing wildly with the chairs making Prestige Inc. second guess their strategy.  Bull finally decides to regroup and they all leave without further altercation.   ScooterJ, Axe and TNT celebrate with the fans and then depart.  (8 min for the match; 5 extra for the segment)
Backstage, King Wilber Townsend and his lackey Sonic Blade are calling out World Champion Texas Wildfire.  TW just happens to be there and enters the area.  Wilber says the match against Sonic Blade was a fluke and the two of them are teaming up for a match tonight against TW and a partner of his choice.  TW says the choice is a no brainer as he knows the perfect person.  Wilber asks who and into the area walks Drew the Canadian Love Machine.  Drew says he’d be happy to join forces with the World Champ.  He shakes hands with TW and reminds him that the two of them will meet again.

We go back to the ring for our next match which will be another 6 man match.  First, Davis Hoffmeister and DJ CJ Spice.  Davis takes the mic and introduces their partner for tonight’s match.  Out comes ‘Dude USA’ Mick Rude to a pop from the crowd.  The three make their way down to the ring.  Next, the Tag Team Champions the Steel Curtain come out and they introduce their partner – ‘The Ragin Cajun’ Rad Gumbo.  The three of them head to the ring.  The team of champs dominated the team of challengers and after the Curtain and Hoff n Spicy brawled on the outside of the ring, Gumbo hits Mick Rude with the Bayou Roll and he makes the cover (with a hook of the tights), he scores the pin.   The Steel Curtain and Rad Gumbo are victorious.  The Curtain and Hoff n Spicy brawled to the back.  While Gumbo paraded around like a peacock, Rude recovered and nailed Gumbo with the Dude Awakening.  Gumbo scurried out of the ring and Mick stood tall in the ring.  Gumbo made some questionable gestures at Rude as he continued to move backwards up the stage.  (16 min)

Backstage, Leon Teremoto says tonight is his turn to get gold around his waist.  He thinks Reid has been spouting off at the mouth for too long and that ends tonight.

Our next match is tag team action once again.  First, Drew the Canadian Love Machine comes out to a huge pop.  He is then joined by World Champion Texas Wildfire who receives a similar ovation.  They go to the ring.  Next, King Wilber Townsend comes out with Sonic Blade in tow.  Wilber orders Sonic to walk beside him and he does.  The two enter the ring.  Wilber had Sonic distract the ref for the majority of this short match.  While that was going on, Wilber hurled Drew out of the ring.  All of a sudden, the Super Shockmaster ran down and began pummeling Drew.  He knocked him silly with the helmet headbutt and then put Drew on a table (conveniently set up earlier by Wilber).  Super Shockmaster then climbed up on the apron and then nailed a Galactic Splash on Drew through the table.  SS got up laughing and then exited through the crowd.  Sonic finally let the ref go and saw the carnage but never the interference.  He began counting as Texas Wildfire went out to check on him but Drew was not able to make it back in the ring.  King Wilber and Sonic Blade get the win in 3 minutes via CO.  Wilber went to raise Sonic’s arm in victory but he pulled away and walked to the back.  Wilber followed.  Medics came out to check on Drew but with TW’s help, he was able to make it to the back.  The fans gave them an ovation even though they lost.

Reid Rothchild is backstage and he mocks Leon Teremoto as a threat.  Master Bull says that Reid wins tonight and Prestige Inc. will arrive in force in the ring afterwards to celebrate Reid’s domination of the roster.

We cut to GM Max McGillicutty’s office and he is going over the lineup for the show.

Rad Gumbo vs Dude USA for the US title
Steel Curtain vs Hoff N Spicy for the Tag Team titles
TW vs King Wilber w/Sonic Blade for the World title
El Gato Negro vs Southern Belle for the Ladies title
Prestige Inc (Bishop, Chic, Jesse) vs ScooterJ, TNT and the Axe
Dr. Red Fang vs the Fiend for the hardcore title

He’s not sure if 6 matches will fill the card.  He thinks he’ll pencil one in and if there is time, he’ll add it.

It’s time for our main event.  Leon Teremoto makes his way out first to a decent pop from the crowd.  Next, Master Bull comes out and tells all the humanoids (yes, he stole that from Bobby Heenan) to stand up and applaud the greatest singles athlete in the history of HCW – ‘the Elitist’ Reid Rothchild.   Reid comes out and joins Bull on stage.  He is then joined by his wife Ravishing Raquel.   Leon took control early and often and Reid had to keep leaving the ring to confer with Master Bull.  Each time he did, Leon turned up the intensity.  Leon came close after hitting Reid with a powerbomb.  He went for the cover but both Raquel and Bull pulled Reid out of the ring to save his hide.   After a final conference with Master Bull, Reid got back in the ring and Leon locked in a grinding headlock.  Reid kicked him in the gut and hit the Rothchild Stunner.  Leon got his foot on the ropes but Raquel knocked it off.  The ref counted 1…2…3!  Reid gets the win.  Prestige Inc. comes down to the ring and celebrates with their leader.   Reid asks for a mic and Bull hands hit to him.  Reid throws out an open challenge to anyone on the roster.  Reid mocks them when no one accepts.  Bull hands him a piece of paper.  Reid flaunts an open contract to anyone who will fight him.  Raquel takes the contract and the mic and says she accepts.  Reid is like WHAT?  Raquel says that women wrestlers before her like Chyna and Sexy Star (Lucha Underground) can dominate in a male-run sport, so can she.  Raquel signs it and then throws the contract in Bull’s face and walks off.  Bull, Reid and the rest of Prestige Inc. are left flabbergasted as the show comes to an end.


That was a hell of a bomb to end with so stay tuned as I’m sure Reid and Master Bull will try to find a way out of this.  Our PPV is next!
