Hello
fans and welcome back to another episode of HCW’s Phoenix Heat. GM Master Bull comes out as pyro goes off
starting off the show. He thanks
everyone for showing up and says that Max beat him to the punch about the PPV
at the end of the month but he says he will have some exclusive announcements
that he gets the lead on and that will be forthcoming. With that, the show is ready to go.
The
first match starts off with Felicia Cummings making her way down to the
ring. Next, her opponent Lexy Flexx
makes her way down. The fans are mixed
on their reactions to Lexy. For about 8
minutes, Lexy controlled the tempo of the match but then Felicia hit a sitout
facebuster and that pretty much ended the offensive run of Lexy. Felicia kept the heat on and then after she
hit Lexy with a running kneelift that almost took Lexy’s head off, Felicia made
the cover and hooked the leg getting the 3 count. Felicia leaves with her arms raised over her
head as the fans booed her. (14 min)
Backstage,
Ladies Champion Taylor Bella and her manager Figaroa ‘Figgy’ Newton are in
Master Bull’s office and they are trying to get him to nullify the triple
threat match. Bull says “No can
do”. Taylor and Figgy storm out. Outside the office, ‘Top Gun’ Justin Winger
walks over and he tries to hit on Taylor.
She snorts and rolls her eyes and walks off. Figgy stands there watching and he’s not
happy.
We’re
on to our second match. First, ‘Red Hot’
Lucas Johnston comes out to a big pop from the crowd. Next, manager MJ comes out and introduces
‘The Ragin Cajun’ Rad Gumbo as the loudspeaker blares out “Gumbo 7:30 says its
suppa time, bitch”. Gumbo and MJ make
their way down to the ring as some fans really like him and others are not impressed. Lucas started off stunning Gumbo with some
forearm shots. Lucas then arm dragged
Rad across the ring. Rad then
“pretended” he got hurt and as the ref went to check on him, MJ choked Lucas
out in the corner until he was practically unconscious. MJ let him go and Lucas fell to the mat. Rad miraculously recovered and went for the
pin and got the 1-2-3. MJ joined Rad in
the ring and the two celebrated their “win” briefly before leaving to booing
from the fans. (3 min)
Music
hits and out comes ‘The Elitist’ Reid Rothchild. He gets in the ring and tells the fans that “Elitism”
will rule the world. Reid says that joining
him will be his new tag team partner who just so happens to be his brother and
together, they, as “Elitism” will reign supreme. Reid then introduces Roderick Rothchild. Roderick comes out and the fans sort of pop
for him. He joins Reid in the ring and
the two shake hands. Roderick then tells
the world that he’s ready to make an impact and says that the only way to make
a name for yourself is to challenge the top team and he issues a challenge to
the Steel Curtain. Reid smiles and says
“When you’ve got it, you’ve got it and tonight, we show the Steel Curtain that
we’re the next big thing.” Elitism then
leaves the ring to a mixed reaction from the crowd.
Match
#3 begins with Talon McFrost making his way down to the ring. Next, “Dude USA” Mick Rude makes his way down
to a pop from the crowd. McFrost was the
aggressor in this match and scored multiple near falls hitting “The Stone
Cold”. Talon kept up the pressure and
thought he had it locked in after hitting driving elbow drops onto the sternum
of Rude. Rude somehow shook it off and
grabbed Talon and locked him in the surfboard.
Right in the middle of the ring and with nowhere else to go, Talon
tapped out. Rude released him and stood,
exhausted, and had his arm raised as the victor. He left to the back to a pop from the
crowd. (13 min)
Backstage,
TV champion Phat Sol calls out Biceps Bannerman for the attack after his
successful title defense. Phat says
Biceps is just mad that he no longer is a contender and was just
disgruntled. Phat says that he’s not
letting Biceps’ cheap shot take away from his title reign and promises that if
Biceps gets involved in his business again, he’ll be more than ready to
respond.
Match
#4 is up next. Jesse California comes
out to a pop from the crowd probably only because of who is opponent is. Next, 5th Column member Baron von
Blood comes out and he’s, yep, you guessed it, booed. Jesse laughs at the Baron who just attacks
him. Jesse fought him off dropping him
with multiple jumping elbow drops. Baron
then tried to eye rake Jesse but Jesse nullified it. Baron eye raked Jesse this time but even
“blinded”, Jesse locked in a bodyscissors sleeperhold and Baron flailed around
trying to break the hold but it wouldn’t give so he ended up tapping out. Jesse gets the win in just 3 minutes. He celebrates in the ring but Baron knocks
him down. He then calls down his 5th
Column teammates and Oswald Zimmerman and Karl Braun rush down and all three
men beat Jesse down. Finally, refs and
security came out from the back and got the Column to stop their assault. The Column left while Jesse had to be taken
to the back on a stretcher. (3 min for
the match; 5 extra for the aftermath)
Manager
J C Dykes cuts a promo against the Axe with the United States Champion the
Unknown Assassin standing right behind him. “Do you know what you got yourself
into? This man will be your pain and
suffering. He will destroy you and when
he’s done and you’re broken, you’ll be put out to the curb like tomorrow’s
garbage pickup. The champ will give you
a preview when he defends the US title against Butch Huber and destroys him
too.”
Match
#5 is ready to go and making their debut as a new team, “Elitism” (Reid and
Roderick Rothchild) make their way down to the ring and they get a decent
pop. Reid is wearing his Hardcore title. Next, the Steel Curtain (Buzz and Starbuck
Steel) along with their manager the Ambassador, make their way out to booing
from the crowd. Buzz gets right into
Roderick’s face and as soon as the bell rings, the two begin slugging it out
and both take it to the outside of the ring.
Roderick catches Buzz with an airplane spin and then unceremoniously
dumps him on the floor. Roderick rolls back
in at the 8 count but Buzz isn’t able to make it back in and he gets counted
out. Elitism gets their first win albeit
by countout decision in just one minute.
Starbuck and the Ambassador are irate.
Starbuck demands a rematch right now against them. Reid says that the Ambassador must leave
ringside if they want this to happen.
Starbuck, without pause, accepts almost immediately. The Ambassador leaves but he’s not all that
happy about it. Starbuck tells Reid to
get in the ring and tells them to try that again but this time in a no
DQ/countout match. Much to the dismay of the Steel Curtain, Elitism hung right
in there with them and no matter what they did, the Curtain just couldn’t
capitalize in anything. Just past the 12
minute mark, the Ambassador came out and drew the attention of the ref who kept
demanding he leave. Right about then,
the Steel Curtain hit double piledrivers on Reid and Roderick on the outside of
the ring injuring both men. Reid was
left in a heap while Roderick was dragged back into the ring for more
damage. Starbuck mockingly rolls
Roderick up in a small package and hooks the tights (hey…that’s illegal) as the
ref counted 1-2-3. The Steel Curtain steal
another win. While they were standing
over Roderick gloating, they didn’t see Reid sneak in and level both Starbuck
and Buzz with steel chair shots sending them scurrying out of the ring like
scalded dogs. Reid helped his brother up
and they stood tall while the Curtain snarled and cursed at them as they backed
up the ramp. (13 min)
Butch
Huber talks how tonight he knocks the Unknown Assassin off his high horse and
takes the title and there’s nothing UA or Dykes can do about it.
It’s
time for our main event. First, the
challenger Butch Huber comes out to a mixed reaction from the crowd. Next, the US Champion the Unknown Assassin
and his manager J C Dykes make their way out.
Dykes crosses his arms and taps his foot in annoyance as security comes out
and lines the ramp that allows the champ and his manager to walk to the ring
unmolested. It, however, did not stop
the fans from throwing stuff at them as they walked by. This was by far the roughest match watching
the two just brawl their way through.
They fought all over the ring and around the ring. Butch introduced UA to the ringside bell
(GONG) the hard way and you could tell he got busted open from the blood
dripping out from under his mask. The
ref didn’t see it as Dykes caused a distraction at the wrong time. This did not stop the Unknown Assassin from
finishing the match as it only made him that much more determined. As the match went on, Dykes would throw in
his two cents giving UA a momentary upper hand.
During one of these sessions between Dykes and UA, the champ was handed
something he quickly hid away. Butch
comes in and hits a Gator roll but UA blasted Butch with an English forearm
strike that looked a lot more powerful than it should have. UA made the cover and the ref counted 1…2…3. Unknown Assassin is victorious in the defense
of his title. UA and Dykes celebrate in
the ring until the Axe shows up on the stage ruining his moment. Axe stands there smiling as the show comes to
an end.
Thanks
for reading. Tacoma Thunder will be back
on Sunday. Stay tuned.
