HCW Wrestling Newsletter 2017 #618 – Tacoma Thunder – PPV fallout

Hello fans and welcome back to our newsletter.  Wow, last night’s show was saw off the chart performances by our roster and some of last night repercussions will surely surface moving forward.  Before the show can begin, the Omegatron lights up and an unannounced, unexpected video stream begins to play.  J C Dykes appears.  “I want my man to be the greatest champion this company has ever seen! I don’t care if the rules allow or not, on behalf of the Unknown Assassin, I challenge TV Chump Fatty Patty SOUL for his belt. You need a quality TV Champion on TV week in and week out. Unknown Assassin is your man. Even though he has a money in the bank contract for any title he could wish for, he wants the TV title and he will even unmask if allowed to challenge for the overblown champion’s belt and he loses. How About it?”  (Just as quick the video stream cuts off).

 

Pyro goes off and the show begins with “Ice Dagger Baby” (based off the ripped off Ice Ice Baby abomination) and Ice Dagger makes his way down to the ring.  The fans boo him but he flips them off nonchalantly.  Next, El Chango comes out and the fans pop for him.  He makes his way down to the ring and stands on the corner turnbuckle with his arm raised but cautiously looking over his shoulder to make sure ID doesn’t attack him.  The match begins.  After a few minutes, El Chango threw ID out of the ring but he was back in at the 7 count and then hit the Ice Breaker.  He then threw El Chango over the top rope and followed him out.  He trapped El Chango under the ringside barrier that he positioned over El Chango’s throat causing it to choke him out.  ID then rolled back into the ring but El Chango was slow to get up and not able to make it back in before the 10 count.  Ice Dagger gets the win via countout.  He laughs as he makes his way to the back.  (6 ½ min)

Backstage, TV Champion Phat Sol says that he will accept the challenge from the Unknown Assassin and his ass-hat of a manager J C Dykes and once he beats UA, he will challenge him for the US title and may even take his mask.

We head back to the ring and Bishop Ripley was making his way out.  Next, he is followed out by Jerry Saunders who gets a so-so reaction from the crowd.  Saunders goes right on the offensive and for 11 minutes, he controlled the match but after Bishop hit the Alien Resurrection, things went his way.  At the 15 minute mark, Saunders went to the turnbuckle and was trying to do something but Ripley jumped over and hit a tiger suplex that elicited a pop from the crowd.  Bishop made the pin getting the 1-2-3.  Bishop Ripley gets the win.  He celebrates briefly before leaving.  (16 min)

Manager Ant Graham is backstage with his monster Covfefe.  Ant says that Covfefe has been burning through the competition (has he…has he really?) and is in need of more competition.  Hangman #3 walks over and says that he can give the monster a run for his money.  After a few moments of Ant laughing hysterically, he finally catches his breath and says “ok.  We’ll see you in the ring…sucka”.

We go back to the ring for 6 man tag team action.  First, Ivan Dragovich, Wendell Hammerschmidt, and Otto Ruthless all make their way down to the ring.  Next, carnival type music plays and out comes our residential clowns – the Muscles Trio.  They are running around on the stage wearing their rainbow colored bull horns getting that cheap pop from the crowd.  The make their way down to the ring and things kick off pretty quick.  Once they go through the triple teaming at the beginning of the match, the Muscles finally got things kicked into high gear and began to take the fight to their opponents.  About 15 minutes in, Ivan’s team began to triple team McGuire and then Weasley but they couldn’t score a pin opportunity.  Finally, Weasley is able to hit a diving cross body on Otto and he went for the cover.  Otto got his foot on the rope almost immediately but Thorpe ran over and knocked it off.  The ref counted to 3 and awarded the match to the Muscles Trio.  The trio then ran around the ring acting all goofy until Ivan and Wendell hit the ring and started beating them down.  Ivan locked Thorpe in the Accolade Clutch and Wendell and Otto threw McGuire and Weasley out of the ring.  Ivan kept the hold on up until the point where the referee was going to fine Ivan.  Ivan let go and laughed and he and his team left while McGuire and Weasley limped back into the ring to help Thorpe to the back.  (19 min)

Back in his office, GM Max McGillicutty says he wants to see more tag team action so he tells Ghee Buttersnaps and Ovaltine Jackson that tonight, they get to take on the Smashers.  He wishes them best of luck and says that a win tonight will get them back into contention for a tag team title match.

We go back to the ring and Hangman #3 comes out and begins to make his way down but the music changes and Covfefe rushes out and attacks him before he can get into the ring.  Ant walks down as his own pace laughing.  Covfefe continues to beat Hangman #3 down and the ref basically calls this a no contest.  Ant gets on the mic and questions “Is this the best that the HCW can give?  Is there no one worth this man’s time?”  Music changes and out comes…well this is a shocker…Pete Punsher.  Pete has a mic and says that Graham has warped Covfefe/Magnum Kone’s mind and turned him into a mindless automaton.  Pete says he’ll withhold his puns for the time being but right now, it’s about kicking some ass.  Covfefe beat down on Pete for the first 5 minutes of the match but then Pete began battling back with a vengeance.  Two minutes later, Pete connected with the Pun-t to the head but Ant panicked and Ant shoved the referee causing the disqualification.  Pete Punsher gets the win.  Pete then grabbed Ant before he could escape and looked to the fans before popping the manager a good one.  He kept looking at the crowd and just as he wound up to deliver the knock out punch, Covfefe grabbed Ant pulling him from harm’s way taking him to the back.  Pete gets a small pop from the crowd and leaves shortly thereafter.  (7 min)

Back in Max’s office, he gets a visit from the IT guy @jowsterguy.  He asks Max for a match against the evil vampire Dr. Red Fang.  Max is weary but @jowsterguy guy says he’ll take two months to train and then wants Fang at the end of the year PPV.  Max grants it.

Action returns to the ring as the Smashers make their way down to booing from the fans. Next, the team of Ghee Buttersnaps and Ovaltine Jackson make their way down as the fans pop for them.  The Smashers go on the offensive first but their opponents stayed right with them.  The Smashers were first to do double teaming but it didn’t yield much of anything.  2 minutes later, Ghee and Ovaltine were on the offensive.  Ovaltine threw Smasher #2 into #1 who was knocked off the apron.  Ovaltine then hit a spinebuster and then Ghee tossed him out of the ring.  Smasher #2 was not able to recover fast enough to beat the 10 count so he got counted out.  Ghee and Ovaltine get the win via countout.  (5 min)

We are back in Max’s office for the third time tonight and after there’s a knock on his door, the NEW World champion Drew the Canadian Love Machine walks in with his title over his shoulder.  Max shakes his hand congratulating him on his win.  He doesn’t get too far into the conversation before former champion Sonic Blade walks in.  Sonic says that Drew got lucky and the only way he can prove he’s the legitimate champion is for him to give Sonic his rematch and then we’d see who the real champion is.  Max started to protest but Drew said that it would be the right thing to do but instead of doing it tonight, they both can travel to Phoenix and on Wednesday, in front of the Phoenix Heat audience, Drew will defeat Sonic one more time and will show who the man is.  Sonic snorts in derision and smirks as he walks off.

It’s time for our Main event:  TV title match:  Phat Sol defends the title against the Unknown Assassin.  UA and his manager J C Dykes comes out first and they are booed.  Security comes out to line the ramp and they head down to the ring amidst the booing (and heckling) from the fans.  The music changes and out comes the TV Champion Phat Sol.  The fans pop for him as he makes his way down to the ring.  Dykes hands over the briefcase with the contract but then is told that the match is a No DQ match.  Dykes smiles.  Dispite UA controlling the match and the constant interfering from Dykes, Phat surprisingly held his own.  Things began going his way after the 10 minute mark but all pin attempts did not materialize into a win.  We catch up with the match at the 17 minute mark.

The Unknown Assassin has just defeated Phat to become the NEW TV Champion.  He is handed the belt and holds that and the US title high.  Phat begins to stir and UA picks him up and then sets him on the top turnbuckle.  He then hits the ropes and connects with a high knee strike that sends Phat tumbling to the floor.   Phat is out cold.  UA goes to and drags Phat back into the ring.  Dykes then pulls out some electric shears and together they shave Phat’s head taking every single hair off his dome.  The Unknown Assassin and his manager stand tall over the prone form of Phat Sol as the fans throw junk at them in the ring.  Dykes stands there laughing as the show comes to an end.

Stay tuned as there is more to come.

HCW Wrestling Newsletter 2017 #617 – Halloween Scream PPV

Hello fans and welcome back to another installment of our wrestling newsletter.  Tonight, HCW’s two brands Tacoma Thunder and Phoenix Heat are proud to bring you our PPV Halloween Scream live from Tacoma, WA.  The live show is sold out and those streaming it online are ordering it in record numbers.   As mentioned in our last two episodes, we will have two preshow matches with King Wilber taking on his estranged sibling TNT (formerly Turnip Townsend) and the Steel Curtain (Buzz and Starbuck Steel) taking on Outback Oscar and the Crocodile Hunter.  Even though all competitors are top notch, there was only so much room on the main card.

Preshow Match #1:  The Steel Curtain vs the Crocodile Hunter and Outback Oscar.  Since this was preshow, neither team got anything in the way of fanfare.  In fact, the arena was only about 60% full by the time this match began.    The Steel Curtain were not happy being relegated to opening act and they took out their frustrations on their opponents.  After what seemed like an eternity (SC purposely dragged the match out), the Ambassador got involved and tripped Croc at the ropes.  Starbuck made the cover and with a handful of tights AND his feet on the ropes, he scored the 1-2-3.  The Steel Curtain get the win.  After the match, they threw Croc and Oscar out of the ring and the fans booed them as the Ambassador stood tall by his team.  (25 min; 195 to 111)

Preshow Match #2:  King Wilber vs TNT.  Again, no fanfare which seemed to irritate Wilber more than it did TNT.  TNT immediately challenged his older sibling to a specialty match and Wilber accepted.  TNT said it would be a “brass knuckles” match.  A few times during the match, TNT got in some really good hits with the brass knucks but Wilber refused to stay down.  The action spilled to the outside of the ring where Wilber kissed the steel steps but that still wasn’t enough to put him out.  After reversing the Go To Sleep, TNT hit a brass knuckle thrust to the chest and Wilber went down to one knee.  He picked him up and nailed a standing suplex.  He stood over Wilber until the Hubers ran down and beat down their cousin.  They helped Wilber up who got them out of the ring and then hit TNT with a lifting sideslam.  Wilber made the laxidazy cover and got the 1-2-3.  King Wilber gets the win and picks up TNT to inflict more damage but TNT’s tag partners the Axe and Scooter J ran down to save him.  Scooter J and the Axe helped TNT to the back.  (20 min; TNT – 130, KW- 100)

After the commotion had ended, pyro goes off and our PPV is officially underway.  The arena is practically busting at the seams and they pop as the camera pans the audience.  They get even louder when GM’s Max McGillicutty and Master Bull come out to thank the fans for attending and promise a show that will be one for the ages.  Bull says that tonight brings an end to some feuds and others very well could continue.  Max wraps things up as pyro goes off once again and our show is officially underway.

Match #1:  The Super Duper Shock Master makes his way out first and he is, of course, booed.  He acts like he’s going to slug a few of the fans but he just keeps walking.  He gets in the ring and takes a mic.  In his modified voice, he addresses his opponent.  “Tonight, you will face your greatest fears and tonight, those fears will consume you.  Once you have lost and are out of HCW, the Super Duper Shock Master will reign supreme and there won’t be anything you can do about it.”  Music changes and out comes Texas Wildfire.  The fans pop is almost deafening.  He slaps the hands of all the fans as he makes his way to the ring (it took an extra minute because he literally slapped every fans’ hand at ringside).  He got in the ring and immediately got into the face of SDSM.  SDSM surprisingly backed off.  The ref reminded us that on the line will be Wildfire’s career vs SDSM’s mask.  Also in the spirit of our Halloween themed PPV, this match will carry a special stipulation – it will carry Lights Out rules.  The two immediately started to slug it out with TW falling after a low blow with a Singapore cane shot. He would eventually battle back breaking the same cane over SDSM’s helmet.  He followed it up with a DDT that didn’t do much damage.  TW then grabbed a chair and hit the leaping DDT onto the chair and then hooks the leg for the 1…2…3!  Texas Wildfire gets the win and immediately pulls the helmet off revealing a normal looking guy.  TW seems a bit perplexed.  He drops the helmet in confusion and leaves the ring.  He makes it up the ramp and turns to the fans who pop for him again.  Just as he turns around, he is attacked by the returning Super Shockmaster.  SS beats TW down and then hits TW with a couple of power headbutts busting TW up.  SS stands over TW and laughs that mechanical laugh before walking off.

Manager J C Dykes is backstage with the US Champion the Unknown Assassin.  Dykes tells the wrestling world that his man will breeze through tonight’s match dulling the Axe and setting his sights on the next title he wants.  Dykes threatens that if UA gets his way, then the world will get to experience the AWESOMENESS that is the Unknown Assassin.

We head back to the ring for our next match.  From the ceiling, the Hell in the Cell structure is lowered (but still high enough for the competitors to enter the ring) and we’re ready for our next match.  First, music hits and out comes Brick.  The reaction he gets isn’t as bad as it’s been and a good portion of the fans actually like him.   Brick enters the hellacious structure.  Next, Scooter J comes out and he makes a beeline for the ring.  Scooter J slides under the cage just as it touches down and he and Brick start beating the tar out of each other.  Brick hits a spinebuster but SJ slams Brick’s head into the steps.  Scooter J lays in with 10 punches and then goes for a quick pin but only gets a 2 count.  Scooter J eye rakes Brick and then goes to execute a Hell move but Brick reverses it trying for a spinebuster but SJ reverses it again hitting a bodyslam.  He goes for the cover again but again, only a 2 count.  Brick hits a low blow and a piledriver.  He goes for the pin but SJ kicks out at 2.  SJ gets tossed over the top rope but he hung on.  Brick hits the ropes and connects with a Fly through the ropes and into the cage spear type of move.  SJ crumples.  Brick throws the limp form of SJ back into the ring and rolls him up and got the 1-2-3.  Brick gets the win and the fans actually pop for him.  Brick leaves the ring and Scooter J had to be helped to the back.  (6 min)

Dr Red Fang is backstage and he seems to be looking for the IT guy @jowsterguy.  He doesn’t see him but turns to the camera and starts to comment.

        “Thankfully we don't have to rely on @jowsterguy to provide the entertainment around here.”

        (In a mocking voice) “@jowsterguy: work faster! Programming isn't that hard.”

And Finally…

        “What kind of pencil neck geek would ask a question like that? @jowersterguy of course.”

Out of nowhere, our IT guy rushes in attacking Fang but Fang throws him against the wall and then hits him with a Vampire Lunge.  He then hits a Transylvania piledriver and went to inflict more damage but security rushed in and prevents further damage.  Fang is escorted away screaming “VAMPIRE LUNGES FOR EVERYONE!” 

It’s time for our next match.  First, one third of the 6 man champs The Axe comes out to a pop from the crowd.  He makes his way down but as soon as he gets in the ring, his music is cut off. Next, manager J C Dykes comes out and introduces the US Champion the Unknown Assassin. The fans boo and Dykes stands there impatiently tapping his foot and he yells “anytime now” and finally security comes out and lines the walkway down to the ring.  Dykes and the champ make their way down to the ring as security holds the irate fans back.  Early on, the Axe locked in a bearhug but Dykes came to his rescue.  Dykes would stick his nose into the match to give the champ an advantage but Axe would just battle back.  Towards the end of the match, Axe hits UA with a backbreaker but Dykes rushes in and throws a fireball into the Axe’s face blinding him but it resulted in a disqualification.  The Axe wins the match but unfortunately not the title.  UA and Dykes leave the ring with the title.  The Axe leaves shortly thereafter.  (17 min)

Manager the Ambassador is backstage and he tells the world that he has taken on a new team to manage and introduces Elitism.  He says Reid and Rothchild will be the next champs and the team of the future.

We go back to the ring for the next match.  The Ambassador comes out and leads Elitism – Reid and Roderick Rothchild down to the ring to a mixed reaction from the crowd.  We’re not sure why Reid and Roderick aligned themselves with him but maybe we’ll find out soon.  Next, Figgy Newton comes out and introduces the World Tag Team Champions Hoff n Spicy – Davis Hoffmeister & DJ CJ Spice.  The champs control the match and just as Reid and Roderick started to make a comeback, the Steel Curtain – Buzz and Starbuck Steel – make their way out and confront the Ambassador.  They totally ignore the match taking place and just start questioning what the hell their manager is up to.  DJ took advantage of the distraction and hit Reid with a bulldog.  DJ made the cover and got the 1-2-3.  Hoff n Spicy retain the titles.  They, along with their manager Figgy Newton, then left to a pop from the crowd.  The Steel Curtain, the Ambassador and Elitism were all in the ring yelling at each other and the Steel Curtain stormed off.  Elitism and the Ambassador then followed.  (12 min)

Figgy Newton makes his way back into the interview area and he says that Hoff N Spicy retained and coming up next, Taylor Bella will retain…hands down.  He claps his hands and rubs them together and head off camera.

It’s time for our Fatal Four for the Ladies title.  First, Madame Jade makes her way out to a pop from the crowd.  Next, the Duchess makes her way out and she is booed.  Third, Starr Vixen makes her way out to a pop.  Finally, Figgy Newton comes out and introduces the Ladies Champion Taylor Bella.  Taylor comes out and she is booed but she doesn’t care.  She and Figgy make their way to the ring.  Throughout the entire match, Starr Vixen was the shinning…err… star during the entire match.  She took the fight to everyone in the ring and on numerous occasions, came close to getting the 3 count but every competitor in this match would not let the others get the win.  The match closed in on the 30 minute mark, all four women got into the ring and just began slugging it out.  The Duchess hits a Lou Thesz Press on the Star while Madame Jade hits the champ with the Jade Breaker and locked it in but before Taylor could tap out, the bell rang bringing this one to a time limit draw.  Figgy immediately pulled Taylor out of the ring and handed her the title and helped her to the back.   Starr left disappointed leaving the Duchess and Madame Jade alone in the ring.  The Duchess began poking Jade with her finger calling her a glory hound and that the Duchess should be the face of HCW in Tacoma and Jade ruined that.  The Duchess then slapped Jade across the face but Jade locked in the Jade Breaker and trapped her right in the middle of the ring.  The Duchess was slapping the mat signaling she was tapping out but it didn’t matter as the match was over.  Madame Jade finally let go and left to a pop from the fans.  The Duchess, embarrassed, was able to leave under her own power.  (30 min for the match; 5 for the additional segment)

There seems to be a few things going on backstage.  First, Figgy Newton was running around gloating about his teams retaining their belts but then ‘Top Gun’ Justin Winger showed up and Figgy bolted out of the building.

Next, Drew the Canadian Love Machine was backstage cutting a promo.  “What does being the World Champion mean to me?  It means being the best in the World; it means being the face of the organization; it means everyone is gunning for you.  Sonic, tonight the best man is going to walk out of that ring and will walk out with the championship.  I’ve waited long enough and tonight, I will wear gold once again.  Then, you’ll see why you don’t mess with this dog.”

Elsewhere backstage, World Champion Sonic Blade is cutting his own promo.  “Are you ready to see Sonnnnnnnnic Blaaaaaaade?  You are going to be Thunderstruck; tasting the mat. Drew, I know you’re going to enjoy your time there.  Be prepared to feel the disappointment that accompanies losing.”

It’s time for our Main Event.  First, Drew the Canadian Love Machine comes out and the fans’ pop is the loudest it’s been all night.  He slaps the hands of the fans as he makes his way to the ring and proceeds to climb each corners’ turnbuckles to louder and louder pops (not sure how that is possible but it kept happening).  He removes his jacket as the music changes and out comes the World Champion Sonic Blade.  Sonic wastes no time and heads to the ring sliding under the bottom rope.  He removes the title and holds it high showing it off to the fans on each side of the ring.  Once done, he hands the title to the ref and meets Drew in the center of the ring.  Some jawjacking occurs but just before the bell rings, GM Max McGillicutty comes out and announces that, as the crown jewel of the night, this match will have a special stipulation and that will be…our second HELL IN A CELL match and the cage lowers from the ceiling and then encompasses the ring.  The bell then rings starting this one off.

HCW Wrestling Newsletter 2017 #616 – Phoenix Heat

Hello fans and welcome to the latest episode of HCW’s Phoenix Heat.  Well, our PPV Halloween Scream is just around the corner and the event in Tacoma, WA is completely sold out but you can catch the show live on PPV.  GM Master Bull comes out and thanks the fans for attending tonight’s show.  His first announcement is that he is adding another show to the preshow and that will be Crocodile Hunter and Outback Oscar taking on the Steel Curtain.  After the announcement, Buzz and Starbuck Steel come out and Starbuck questions why they, former champs in both tag team and six man, are curtain jerkers.  Buzz gets into Master Bull’s face asking if he, like GM Max McGillicutty has it in for them.  Bull tells them they are fortunate to have this as they can be taken off the show completely and then where will be then?  Buzz and Starbuck storm off.   Bull applauds and says the show begins now.

Pyro goes off and our show begins with Scarlett Phoenix making her way down to the ring to a pop from the crowd.  Her opponent Sarona Reiher follows moments later.  The two lock up just as the bell rings.  Sarona took control early on but it didn’t take long for Scarlett to fight back and go toe to toe with her opponent.  The final 4 minutes of the match saw Scarlett beat the tar out of Sarona which led to Scarlett connecting with a frankensteiner and getting the 3 count in the middle of the ring.  Scarlett wins the match and adds another W to her win column.  (12 min)

Backstage, Starr Vixen confronts Southern Belle backstage and calls her out for the attack on her.  Belle tells her that this is only getting started and will only end when Belle regains the Ladies title.  She bumps into Starr as she walks off.

We head back to the ring and ‘Top Gun’ Justin Winger makes his way down to the ring and made sure to swing by the woman who now appears to be his #1 fan.  He gets in to the ring as the fans pop.  The music changes and out comes ‘Perfect’ Pecs Stoddard.  The fans boo him as he heads down to the ring.  For 16 minutes, Winger and Stoddard went toe to toe with neither man getting much of a leg up.  Stoddard then hit a low blow that changed the pace of the match to his favor but Winger would not give up.  Pecs kept getting frustrated.  Just as we entered the final minute of the match, Winger went for an arm drag but Pecs reversed it dropping Top Gun with a running double axe handle smash.  Pecs went for the pin and the ref counted 1… 2…and Winger got his foot on the bottom rope just as the time limit ran out.  Winger survived and the match ended in a draw.  Pecs stormed out and Winger made his way to the back.  (20 min draw)

Backstage, we have a visit from World Champion Sonic Blade.  He is approached by the US Champion the Unknown Assassin.  UA looks Blade up and down and says he could and would break him and take that precious title.  He holds up the briefcase that entitles him to a title shot and says he could cash this in right now and take Blade’s title but he has other plans.  UA then walks off.

We head back to the ring as the next match begins.  First, 5^th Column member Baron von Blood makes his way out and is booed.  Next, music from the Misfits plays and out comes the Fiend.  The fans pop for him as he makes his way down to the ring.  Baron went on the offensive for about 2 minutes but then with the fans backing him, the Fiend began dismantling Baron shortly after that and there was no looking back (149 to 81).  The Fiend ended up getting the pin after locking in the Devil lock (figure four) and Baron didn’t get his shoulders up in time.  The Fiend celebrates with the fans before leaving.  (18 min)

Ladies Champion Taylor Bella is backstage with her manager Figaroa ‘Figgy’ Newton and she says she can’t understand why she’s being forced to defend her title tonight and then again in just a few days at the PPV.  Figgy tells her that as her manager, he has her back and he’ll make sure that after tonight’s main event, she will be walking out with her belt.  The interviewer tried to ask Figgy about ‘Top Gun’ Justin Winger but he escorted Taylor off the set and kept walking.

We go back to the ring as the next match begins.  Red McNulty comes out first and the fans boo him.  Next, the Crocodile Hunter comes out and the fans pop louder than they have all night.  He soaks in the adulation from the crowd and makes his way to the ring.  He climbs onto the apron and shakes the ropes (ala Ultimate Warrior) and the fans get even louder. McNulty doesn’t care for the showboating so he, like any bad guy would, attacks Croc.  Croc just sort of shrugged him off and opened a can of whoop-ass on Red and it was embarrassing (141 to 62).  To Red’s credit though, he would not stay down for the pin or tap out.  He always seemed to make it to the ropes just in the nick of time.  Red had dragged this embarrassment of a match to a full 20 minutes and after Croc hit a bodyslam, it looked like he would finally get the pin but the bell rang just as the ref’s hand was coming down for the 3 count.  The match ends in a draw and Red limps out of there.  Croc was a bit frustrated but when the fans popped for him again, he forgot about that and then interacted with them before leaving. (20 min draw)

The Super Duper Shock Master is backstage and he says that on Sunday, he gets Texas Wildfire in the ring and will show him the meaning of the word “pain”.   He said he would put Texas Wildfire through pain and suffering that no one would have experienced in 1000 years.  (Maybe it’s us but we think the glittered covered Stormtrooper helmet has been squishing SDSM’s brain for too long.

We go back to the ring for more action as ‘Dude USA’ Mick Rude comes out to “Born in the USA” by Bruce Springsteen (he’d better have gotten permission to use that music) and he gets a decent reaction from the crowd.  Next, Texas Wildfire makes his way out and his pop is about equal to the one Croc got earlier. TW makes his way to the ring but over the loudspeakers, we hear “Texas Wildfire…your time has come…be prepared to meet your maker.  HAHAHAHA!”  He tries not to let that dissuade him.  TW goes on the offensive but then an image of the Super Duper Shock Master shows up on the Omega Tron.  Clearly, SDSM is trying to throw TW off his game.  It doesn’t work.  TW keeps up the offensive and after hitting the hangman’s clothesline, he makes the cover, hooking the leg and getting the 1-2-3.  Texas Wildfire gets the win but it is short lived as SDSM rushes out (making sure not to trip and lose his helmet) and attacks TW but Wildfire was on…fire and he managed to oust SDSM from the ring MINUS his helmet.   SDSM was wearing a mask underneath and his face wasn’t shown.  TW hurls the helmet back at him and asks for a mic.  He tells SDSM that he wants to ensure that SDSM’s mask in on the line and if Shock Master loses, the mask comes off and we see his face…no covering underneath…no makup….SDSM begins to laugh but then Master Bull comes out.  Bull tells SDSM that these are going to be the conditions of the match and if SDSM doesn’t like it, he’ll show him the (one way) door.  SDSM tried to pout but it looked pretty silly coming from a guy wearing a glittered covered Stormtrooper helmet.  He finally relented and left.  Texas Wildfire left the ring and shook hands with Master Bull.  Both men left.  (18 min for the match; 5 for the additional segment)

It’s time for our main event.  First, Madame Jade makes her way down to the ring to a pop from the crowd.   Next, the Ladies Champion Taylor Bella makes her way out with her manager Figgy Newton.  The reaction she receives is not what she would have hoped for but she didn’t care – she is the champion after all. Once in the ring, the match quickly got underway.  Jade had control of the match early on but after Figgy got involved, things began going the champs’ way.  Figgy was getting ready to intervene again but ‘Top Gun’ Justin Winger came out and chased Figgy to the back.  Starr Vixen then came out as did the Duchess and both ended up getting involved resulting in a DQ (16 min).  GM Master Bull comes out one last time and says that the triple threat match that was going to be for the Ladies Title has now become a Fatal Four Way with Madame Jade being added in and that’s the way it is.  Taylor throws a tantrum as the show comes to an end.

Stay tuned.  The PPV is up NEXT!

HCW Wrestling Newsletter 2017 #615 – Tacoma Thunder

Hello fans and welcome back to another episode of HCW’s Tacoma Thunder.  The weather has definitely gotten cooler as Fall sets in and with that, the rain is here.  Still, it beats 100 degree heat down in Master Bull’s territory.

The show kicks off in GM Max McGillicutty’s office.  Max says that with two draws on the board, we need to have a team to go to the PPV to meet Hoff n Spicy for the World Tag Team Titles.   Max decides that he will pick one team from each brand to meet later today and the winner of that team (they will be given a 60 min time limit just in case) will go on for a shot at the gold.  Representing TT will be Ovaltine Jackson and Ghee Buttersnaps and they will take on (decided by a coin flip)…Elitism.  Reid and Roderick will get one more chance to achieve what’s been eluding them…tag team glory.  We know that this will not sit well with the Steel Curtain but that is GM Master Bull’s problem, not his.   Max says that the tag title match will be up first.

We cut over to the ring and after the pyro had finished, Elitism came out to a pop from the fans.  They headed down to the ring.  Next, Tacoma’s own Ghee Buttersnaps and Ovaltine Jackson come out and get a louder pop (it is their turf) and they head down to the ring.  The match was pretty good albeit it slow in a few spots but about 13 minutes in, Elitism turned up the heat and really took it to their opponents.  After a brief double team, Roderick tagged out to Reid who came in and cleaned house and knocked both Ghee and Ovaltine together.  Ghee fell to the floor injured and Ovaltine looked like he had hurt his leg.  Reid pulled him into the middle of the ring and locked in the Figure Four Reid lock and Ovaltine tapped out.  Reid and Roderick get the win and they officially go on to the PPV to fight for the tag titles.  (19 min)

Backstage, World Champion Sonic Blade is trying to explain to Drew the Canadian Love Machine that it was just happenstance that Drew saw him with the chair.  He said he got it to keep the Hubers from attacking either of them.  Drew accepted the explanation and they shook hands.  The Ryzing Storm (Travis and Terra) walked in mocking their “love fest” and challenged the duo to a match tonight.  Sonic and Drew accepted the challenge.

We head back to the ring for our next match.  First, Ms. Lavender Gooms comes out to a decent pop from the crowd.  Next, music hits and out comes the Duchess with court member Lady Hermann.  The Duchess has a mic in hand.  She mocks the fact that the current Ladies Champion Taylor Bella had forgotten to defend her title and once she defeats her competitors at the PPV, she will become the new champion and do the title proud.  Both ladies head down to the ring.  The match was pretty one-sided with the Duchess dominating the match.  About 6 minutes in, she hurled Lavender out of the ring and distracted the ref.  Lady Hermann then picked up Lavender and hit a HUGE running powerslam onto the floor.  She backed off and the ref began to count and eventually reached 10 counting Lavender out.  The Duchess gets the win via countout.  She stands in the ring celebrating as the fans boo but then music hits and Ladies Champion Taylor Bella rushes down to the ring and the two begin fighting.  Lady Hermann joins in the action and the Court beats Taylor down.  Lady Hermann nailed a running powerslam and the Duchess locked in the All Hail Her Majesty and Taylor was tapping out but the Duchess wouldn’t let up. As soon as security hit the ring, she let her go and she and Lady Hermann left laughing.  Taylor was helped to her feet and glared daggers at her PPV opponent.  (6 ½ minutes for the match; 5 extra for the follow on)

Max is still in his office and says that things got a little lax with title defenses so even though some titles will be defended at the PPV, two needed defenses tonight and one at the Phoenix show.  He said that Hardcore Champion Leon Teremoto will defend his title against Superquake Ferguson, and the Tag Team Champs Hoff n Spicy will take on the Huber Clan for the titles.  In Phoenix, Ladies Champion Taylor Bella will defend against Madame Jade.  The Hardcore title match is next.

Superquake Ferguson lumbered his way down to the ring.  Dang, this guy is huge. He is surely the Giant in HCW.  Next, Hardcore Champion Leon Teremoto comes out to a decent pop.  Once in the ring, he is asked what type of hardcore rules he wants for this match and he says Boot Camp.  Superquake tossed Leon around for the first few minutes but after miraculously locking in a gorilla hug, things went the way of the champ.  Leon struggled to get Superquake off his feet (the guy is 400 lbs, 7 ft tall) but when he did, he would hit him with the Ground n Pound.  Just as time was running out, Superquake locked in a bearhug but Leon wiggled out and dumped Ferguson out of the ring.  Ferguson stormed around the ring but while out there, the bell rang bringing this one to a draw finish.  Leon retains his title via time limit draw.  (20 min)

Hoff N Spicy are backstage with their manager “Figgy” Newton and the interview was more about why Figgy attacked ‘Top Gun’ Justin Winger.  Figgy said that Winger looked at Taylor Bella inappropriately.  When questioned further, he was asked “If she’s the Ladies Champion, can’t she take care of herself?”  Figgy replied “Of course she can but now she knows I will be there to have her back when ANYTHING goes down.” 

We head back to the ring for our next match.  El Chango, who we haven’t seen in a while, returns and the fans pop huge for him.   He goes to shake hands with the fans at ringside but his music is cut off abruptly with “VAMPIRE LUNGES FOR EVERYONE!” blaring over the loudspeakers.  Dr. Red Fang, accompanied by his manager Ant Graham, make his way down to the ring.  The fans do not care for the vampire wannabe and they show it in both their words and actions.  Fang actually threatened to bite off the finger of a fan who was NOT showing him he was number one in their book.  Ant had to break that up quick to avoid any future law suits.  For the first few minutes, El Chango was in control but once Ant Graham stuck his nose in, it all went Fang’s way.  13 minutes in, El Chango had had enough of Graham’s interference and after dropping Fang with a flying spinning heel kick, he left the ring chasing Graham around the ring.  Graham stayed one step ahead and El Chango finally re-entered the ring but immediately got hit with a Vampire Lunge.  Fang made the cover and with a handful of tights AND his foot on the rope for leverage, he got the 1-2-3.  Dr. Red Fang gets the win and laughs maniacally before leaving with his manager.  (14 min)

Max is still in his office and just hung up the phone.  Max tells us that one match will be added to the PPV but it will air online as part of a “preshow”.  That match will be TNT taking on King Wilber one on one.

As we head back to the ring for our next match, Ferb and Butch Huber come out and make their way down to the ring.  Next, Figgy Newton comes out and introduces the World Tag Team Champions Hoff N Spicy (Davis Hoffmeister and DJ CJ Spice).  The crowd pops HUGE for them as they make their way down to the ring.  Before the match could begin though, there was a commotion coming from the crowd.  HOLY COW!  It’s Phoenix’s own ‘Top Gun’ Justin Winger and he’s rushing towards the ring AND towards Figgy Newton.  Figgy hightails it with Winger in tow.  I guess the champs are on their own for this match.  For 10 minutes, the challengers remained in control but that is when Figgy returned to the ring and as soon as he provided guidance to his team, they took over control of the match and started to decimate their opponents.  Figgy instructed them to not do anything crazy so they kept their moves to the ground.  Before we knew it, the bell rang bringing this one to a 30 minute draw.  Hoff n Spicy retain their titles.  Top Gun then rushed out from the back and began chasing Figgy through the crowd.

Max is still in his office and this time is on the phone.  Top Gun Justin Winger walks in and demands a match with Figgy.  Max tells him that this should be directed to Phoenix’ GM Master Bull.  Winger says he did and his request fell on deaf ears (did he now…did he really?)  Max reminds Winger that Figgy is a manager and not a wrestler.  Winger says he’ll get Newton in a ring some way…some how… and he storms out.

It’s time for our main event.  First, the Ryzing Storm comes out (Travis and Terra Ryzing) and they are booed.  Next, Drew the Canadian Love Machine comes out and gets what seems to be the loudest pop of the night.  He is joined by World Champion Sonic Blade on the stage and together they walk to the ring.  No time is wasted as the Ryzing Storm attacks Drew and Sonic but order is quickly restored by the ref.  The Ryzing Storm was on their A game as they totally controlled the match for the first 20 minutes of the match.  After Drew and Sonic got some double teaming in, they started to battle back and within 6 minutes, they were destroying their opponents.  One minute later and Sonic trapped Terra in a reverse cradle and the ref counted 1…2…3.  Drew and Sonic get the win.  They both climb the turnbuckles to pops from the fans but the Ryzing Storm wasn’t done with them.  They began beating Sonic down and then Drew came over to break it up.  Both men had the Storm in opposite corners.  Drew went to whip Terra into Travis across the ring but Terra reversed it and Drew ended up crashing into (Travis pulled him in front of him as a shield) Sonic knocking him from the ring.  Drew ended up disposing of the Ryzing Storm but Sonic got in the ring and the two began having words.  Words turned to shoving and a brawl almost broke out between the two as the show came to an end.  Those two will need to finish this at the PPV.

Phoenix Heat’s episode will be up next and then one week from today, our PPV Halloween Scream will be live from Tacoma (there are a few tickets left) but you can get order it on PPV.  Be sure to contact your cable provider for details.  Thanks for reading.  Stay tuned.  We’re not done yet.

HCW Wrestling Newsletter 2017 #614 – Phoenix Heat

Hello fans and welcome back to our latest episode of HCW’s Phoenix Heat.  GM Master Bull makes his way out to a pop from the crowd.  He announces that tonight’s card will be stacked with a main event headlined by the 6 Man Tag Team Champions – Axe, TNT and Scooter J taking on Brick, King Wilber and the Unknown Assassin.   We’ll also see TV champion Phat Sol take on the Ragin Cajun Rad Gumbo in a non-title match.  Finally, we’ll put to rest who gets a shot at Hoff n Spicy’s tag team titles when the Steel Curtain takes on Elitism in a specialty match to be determined.  With such an explosive card, we need to get this show underway.

The first match of the night is more 6 man tag team action.  The 5^th Column (Baron von Blood, Oswald Zimmerman and Karl Braun) make their way out first and are booed pretty bad.  Next, the Snake Pit (Niven, Tobias and Leiton Snake) make their way out and get an ok reaction as they’re not exactly fan favorites either.  The matchup was practically even with both teams matching each other move for move.  After being hit with a low blow, Tobias bailed out of the ring to catch his breath while his brothers bought him some recovery time. Tobias then looked under the ring, crawled under for just a moment and then came back out.  For a moment, it didn’t seem like either team was going to get an advantage over the other.  Oswald got tagged in and so did Tobias.  Oswald went to hit another low blow on Tobias but it seemingly did little damage.  Tobias then hit the Dirty Deeds on Oswald in explosive fashion.  Leiton and Niven took out the rest of the Column and Tobias made the cover and hooked the leg getting the 1-2-3.  The Snake Pit get the win in 6 minutes.  After the match, Tobias removed a cup that helped minimize any future injuries and the fans popped for it.  The things fans pop for nowadays…

Backstage, Texas Wildfire addresses why he showed up on the Tacoma show.  He says that the Super Duper Shock Master keeps hiding from him.  Well, this time, he showed up on his doorstep and took the fight to him.  TW spoke with both Master Bull and GM Max McGillicutty asking for a specialty match at the PPV where he’d take a 6 month leave of absence without pay in exchange for getting the helmet of SDSM on a silver platter.  Bull and Max liked the idea and made their match a career vs helmet match. 

We head back to the ring for our next match.  Jesse California comes out first and is booed.  Next, the Crocodile Hunter comes out and he gets what seems like the loudest pop of the night.  Jesse doesn’t like that and attacks Croc.  For the first 11 minutes, Croc destroyed Jesse and it looked like it was the end for the West Coast Hearthrob.  Jesse managed to “accidentally” hit the top rope when Croc was up on the top turnbuckle causing him to fall and straddle the top rope.  Jesse then began a comeback that was halted 7 minutes later with Croc hitting an amazing flying dropkick.  Jesse hit a DDT but Croc managed to throw him out of the ring.  Jesse made it back in only to get bodyslammed.  Croc went for the pin but Jesse got his foot on the bottom rope after 1 and then the bell rang bringing this one to a time limit draw.  (20 min draw)

Backstge, the Steel Curtain (Buzz and Starbuck Steel) say that it doesn’t matter the type of match or the time limit as they will make quick work of Elitism and then get their rematch against the champs.  After this match, Elitism will become an afterthought.

Our next match is ready to begin.  First, manager MJ comes out and points up as “Gumbo 7:30 means its suppa time, bitch” plays through the speakers and joining him is ‘the Ragin Cajun’ Rad Gumbo.  Gumbo and MJ make their way to the ring.  Gumbo is questioning MJ why this match isn’t for the title.  Their interlude is interrupted by the TV champion Phat Sol who comes out to a pop from the crowd and makes his way down to the ring.  Early on, Phat hits the Phat’s Enough but only gets a one count.  A few moments later, Gumbo locks in the New Orleans crab but Phat makes it to the ropes to break the hold.  MJ got involved early tripping Phat at the ropes.  MJ, a few minutes later, choked Phat in the corner and that gave Rad a pin attempt but Phat kicked out.  A few minutes after that, MJ eye gouged Phat with peanut shells.  Rad followed it up with the Bourbon Street Blues but Phat got his foot on the rope.  Phat got an offensive run going and MJ tried to eye gouge him again but Phat knocked him from the ring apron and then dropped Rad with the Phat Phat (Brainbuster).  16 minutes in MJ yanked the hair (what little Phat had) and he about lost it.  He went after the manager and once he caught him, dropped him with a sucker punch that sent the wiry manager into the second row.  Once back in, Gumbo hits him with the Gator roll and got a 2 count.  Just as time was running out, Phat hit a knee lift and Rad locked in a French Quarter Nelson (rest hold) and time ran out.  This one ends in a draw.  Rad goes to collect his manager and they leave.  An exhausted Phat Sol celebrates with the fans and then leaves.

Backstage, Elitism (Reid and Roderick Rothchild) respond to the promo that the Steel Curtain cut and they say that they will not go quietly into the night; they will persevere.  Win, lose or draw, this will NOT be the last time they tangle with the Steel Curtain.

Our next match begins with Ravishing Raquel making her way out.  She is then followed out by her opponent Starr Vixen.  Both actually shake hands before the match.  Starr barely had the upper hand until Southern Belle made her way out.  She was mad she wasn’t in this match and she was vocal about it.  Raquel had thrown Starr to the ropes but Belle pulled the top rope down (unbeknownst to the ref) and Starr went flying and crashing to the floor.  Belle then ran back to commentary and pretended to not know what just happened.  “Did you see that?  Little miss vixen just fell down and broke her crown” Bell said and then laughed.  The ref counted to 10 and then awarded the match to Ravishing Raquel via countout.  (7 ½ min).  Belle left quickly after that followed by Raquel.  Starr was helped to the back but she seemed ok; just shook up.

Backstage, Brick, King Wilber and the Unknown Assassin (and his manager J C Dykes) are backstage.  Dykes speaks up so that no one can talk over him.  “The Unknown Assassin and his teammates are going to decimate their opponents and there is nothing anyone can do.  Brick will take out ol’ Schroeder (hey man, where’s your piano); King Wilber will destroy his disgrace of a nephew TNT and the Unknown Assassin will annihilate the so-called Axe and will dull that blade.  You’re looking at the next six man champs you CHUMPS.” The segment ends before anyone else can speak.

We go back to the ring and music hits as the Steel Curtain (Buzz and Starbuck Steel) make their way out to a chorus of booing from the fans.  The Ambassador has been banned from ringside.  Next, Elitism comes out (Reid and Roderick Rothchild) and the fans pop.  The get in the ring and immediately all 4 men are in the middle having a staredown.  Everyone is separated and the ref announces this will be a falls count anywhere rules match.  All 4 men got back in and everyone started to slug it out.  The Steel Curtain managed to get more double teaming action in but every time they tried to capitalize with a pin, the ref got distracted by sending the other member out of the ring costing precious seconds.  This went on for the entire match.  Before we knew it, the time limit was almost complete.  In the final minute of the match, the Curtain were going in for double teaming action.  Just as Starbuck was going to hit a slingshot suplex, Reid ran over and took ‘Buck out and both men went over the top rope.  Buzz ducked a clothesline and hit the Buzz Cut.  Buzz made the cover 1…2…and the bell rang bringing this one to a draw.  Both teams were frustrated as we still don’t know who’s going to meet Hoff n Spicy for the World Tag Team titles in just a few short weeks.  (30 min draw)

Backstage, the 6 Man Tag Team Champs are in the building.  The Axe, Scooter J and TNT say that they each have their own agenda in this match.  Scooter J promises that after tonight, Brick will not make it to the PPV.  Axe says that Unknown Assassin will become just another victim to the mighty Axe (he actually called it Mjölnir – a reference to Thor’s Hammer) and TNT says his abusive (and insane) uncle Wilber won’t know what hit him when he goes off like a powder keg on his ASS.  The three head towards the ring.

There is commotion backstage and GM Master Bull rushes over to see that TV champion Phat Sol has been attacked.  Bull gets all riled up and says the culprit will be found.

It’s time for our main event.  First, Brick and King Wilber make their way out to booing from the crowd.  Next, manager J C Dykes comes out and introduces the Unknown Assassin.  UA remains on the stage while security line the ramp.  Before they can head down, Master Bull comes out and tells Dykes that he is banned from ringside tonight.  He is irate but Bull tells him to leave or he’ll be escorted out by the very security standing here now.  Dykes storms off.  Next, the 6 Man tag champs come out and the place goes bananas.  They make their way down to the ring.  Scooter J goes right after Brick; Axe after Unknown Assassin and TNT after Wilber.  The ref finally gets control and this one is started.  Both Axe and Scooter J got taken out early leaving TNT to fend for himself.  The team led by the Unknown Assassin took turns beating down on poor TNT.  Brick just had his fun and at the 9 minute mark, he tagged in King Wilber.

The 6 Man Tag Team Champion retain their belts by sheer luck.  Unknown Assassin led the team to continue to beat down on TNT after the match.  Finally, Scooter J and the Axe recovered enough and armed with steel chairs, chased their PPV opponents to the back.  This left TNT and King Wilber.  Wilber picked up TNT and was going to hit the GTS but TNT recovered and fought his uncle off.  He began to hulk up after ducking a clothesline, hit Wilber with the TNT.  The fans popped as Wilber rolled out of the ring and to the floor.  The show came to an end with a bewildered King Wilber staring up at TNT in the ring.
