HCW Wrestling Newsletter 2018 #674 – Tacoma Thunder


Hello fans and welcome back to another episode of HCW’s Tacoma Thunder.  Pyro goes off and out comes our GM Max McGillicutty.  He thanks the fans for attending and lets us know that once again, HCW took its show on the road and on last Friday, a Ladies Battle Royal was held.  The show went off without a hitch and the surprising winner of a future Ladies title shot was none other than Jazz Emmett.  Jazz defeated Madame Jade in the final moments of the match to secure the win.  After the match, Jade issued Jazz a challenge for that future title shot and Jazz accepted.  This match will be added to the Supershow in 2 days in Phoenix, AZ.   We then go over the lineup for today’s show:

The show kicks off with Wendell coming out to booing from the crowd.  He makes a beeline for the ring and takes a mic.  He tells the audience to shut up while he speaks.  He says that Drew has no problem signing on for a match but when it comes to putting his title on the line, he’s plain scared of him.  Drew the Canadian Love Machine comes out to a huge pop from the crowd.  He tells Wendell that if wants their match tonight to have the US title on the line then so be it.  It looks like we have ourselves a title match to kick things off.  Once Drew got in the ring though, the music changed and out comes Max.  He tells Drew that although he supports him wanting to be a fighting champion, Wendell is not next in line; in fact, he’s not even in the top 10 so if Wendell wants to earn a shot at the title, he will have to do so like any other wrestler.  The match is changed back to a non-title match.

We’ll give Wendell a little credit…he tried.  But up against the US Champion, you have to do more than try and Drew dominated the match which ended up being pretty one-sided and at the 15 minute mark, he connects with the La Casita and scores the pin.  Drew wins the match and the fans pop.  He celebrates with the fans for a few minutes before heading to the back.

Backstage, Hardcore Hensen approaches Jacques Beannot before their match taking place later tonight.  Hardcore demands that their match bet a specialty one.  Jacques asked why and Hensen replied with “BECAUSE IT’S HARDCORE”.   He looked at Jacques like he had two heads and then walked off.  Jacques stared at him and shook his head.

Our next match is ready to begin.  First, out comes the Irishman Red McNulty.  Red is booed as he makes his way down to the ring.  Next, music changes and out comes ‘Red Hot’ Lucas Johnston.  The fans pop pretty loud for him as he makes his way down to the ring.  Red, of course, doesn’t like that and attacks him before the bell.  Lucas only needed a minute or two to recover from the pre-match attack and took the fight to the irate Irishman.  At one point, Red locked Lucas in a cobra clutch but Lucas was able to make it to the ropes to break the hold.  The ref had to forcibly get Red to break the hold and then the two began to have words.  Lucas shook off the cobwebs and as soon as McNulty turned around, he dropped him with an arm drag but held on and used that to roll him up for the 1-2-3.  Red Hot gets the win and the fans pop huge for him.  He leaves the ring as McNulty gets to his feet and begins kicking the ropes in frustration.  He eventually leaves also.  (14 min)

Backstage, Betsy Cummings is stretching and preparing for her match when her opponent Vanilla Zombie walks in.   Betsy yells “What do you want?” but Vanilla stares at her and asks “Why”.  “Why What?” Betsy responds with but when no answer is forthcoming, she asks again “Why What?” Vanilla cocks her head and just stares at her.  Betsy gets into her face “What do you want?  You want our match to be for my spot…is that it?  What is wrong with you?”  When no reply is found, Betsy breaks down and agrees to make this for her spot in the top 10.  “But when I beat the crap out of you, you’ll wish you never 5tangled with me.”  Betsy storms off and Vanilla cocks her head and a (creepy) smile comes across her face.  She turns and leaves also.

Music hits and we hear “I’ve got some bad news for ya” and out comes ‘Bad News’ Marvin Barnes.  Barnes, always in a grumpy mood, stomps down to the ring.  Next, music changes and out comes “the Hoff” Davis Hoffmeister.  The fans practically lose it and the noise almost blows the roof off.  Davis high-fives with the fans as he jogs to the ring.  Davis climbs each of the corner turnbuckles and the fans pop louder each time.   He removes his jacket and as soon as the bell rings, Barnes goes right on the offensive.  Davis had the fans solidly behind him and he fended off the attack by Marvin and at a few points, was toying with Marvin to let him think he had a fighting chance.  After throwing Marvin to the ropes, he connected with a roundhouse kick that almost took the man’s head off.  Davis finally made the merciful cover and got the 1-2-3.  Davis Hoffmeister gets the win much to the fan’s delight.  He leaves and takes his time celebrating with the fans.  The ref helped Marvin to the back.  (15 min)

Backstage, Scarlett Phoenix says that tonight, she has an opportunity to make history and become the Ladies Champion.  She knows that Candice is devious and will do whatever she has to to win but Scarlett says she’s been watching tapes of her and knows what to expect.  Short of Candice discovering the Infinity Gauntlet, there should be a new champion crowned tonight.

Our next match is up and this one will have hardcore rules.  The ref announces that this will be “Falls Count Anywhere” rules and that it is also a no DQ/no Countout match.  First, Jacques Beannot comes out and the fans pop for him.  He runs to the ring and slides under the bottom rope.  Next, over the loudspeakers blares “BECAUSE I’M HARDCORE” and out comes Hardcore Hansen and he marches down to the ring with military precision.  He gets in the ring and begins pushing Jeannot around.  The bell rings and these two begin to slug it out.

Hensen pulls Beannot out of the ring.  He reaches under the ring and pulls out what looks to be an old computer tower.  It must be old as it looks incredibly heavy.  Hensen motions that he’s going to use it to bash in Jacques’ head (that’s pretty mean).   He picks up the heavy PC and begins lumbering to where Jacques is laid out.  In an act of desperation, Jacques snatches the commentator’s laptop and using it like a Frisbee, hurls it at Hensen hitting him in the stomach.  He loses his grip on the PC and it smashes him in the head drawing blood.  Hensen is disoriented and Jacques rolls him back into the ring.

Backstage, Ladies Champion is standing there with her title slung over her shoulder.  She mockingly laughs saying “Scarlett, I don’t give a damn who you think you are or what you think you know about me just because you watch a video.  I am THE ladies champion and not you, or Ravishing Raquel or anyone will take this belt from me until I am good and ready to let it go so…never.  Settle for being second best.  Hahaha”

We head back to the ring for our next match which is now for Betsy’s spot in the Ladies Top 10.  First, Vanilla Zombie comes out and the fans pop for her.  She passes by her group of Zombies and it seems the number of individuals has grown.  It looks like Vanilla is getting quite the following.  Once in the ring, Betsy’s music hits and she comes out to booing from the fans especially the zombies.  Betsy mocks them as she makes her way to the ring.  Vanilla is in the ring pacing.  The bell rings before Betsy is ready and Vanilla goes right on the offensive.  Betsy was beside herself with how vicious Vanilla was in the ring.  Around 10 minutes in, she motioned for her twin sister to come out to try for a switch-a-roo  but before Felicia could make it to the ring, Ruby Rose comes out and prevents her from interfering in the match.  The fans popped as Ruby peppered Felicia with lefts and rights until she tucked tail and ran to the back.  Ruby looked to the ring and nodded to Vanilla before leaving.  We join the match now at the 11 minute mark.

Vanilla Zombie gets the win and enters the Ladies Top 10.  She is a force to be reckoned with for sure.  She goes to hang out with her zombie fans before heading to the back.

Max McGillicutty is back in his office and he talks up the Supershow representing 675 issues of the Wrestling Newsletter.  Max says that Phoenix GM Master Bull is pulling out all the stops and has a pretty well stacked card:

Jazz Emmett vs Madame Jade for the Money in the Bank contract.
Lavender Gooms vs El Gato Negro in an “Anything Goes” rules match.
Ravishing Raquel vs Candice Charisma (non-title if Candice retains the belt or a top contender match if she loses)
6 Man Tag Team Champ rematch:  Talon McFrost, Otto Ruthless and Wilber Townsend vs the Banker and the Regulators but this time will be a no time limit match in a steel cage.  The stipulation from their 5/2 match (Ruth Heartless’ managerial services flip to the champs if they retain) is still in place.  There will either be new champions or Ruth will manage Talon, Otto and Wilber moving forward.
The main event has ‘The Ragin Cajun’ Rad Gumbo cashing in his first MITB contract against World Champion Buzz Steel.

It’s time for our main event.  First, the challenger Scarlett Phoenix comes out and the fans pop huge for her.  Once in the ring, the Ladies Champion Candice Charisma comes out and the fans boo the crap out of her.  She ignores the fans the best she could.  Candice immediately got into Scarlett’s face and the smack talking began.  As soon as the bell rang, the two ladies began slugging it out.  Scarlett kept up with the champ anticipating all the cheating that was going to happen but Candice changed things up and actually wrestled by the book which threw Scarlett off her game.  Once Scarlett figured out what was going on, Candice hurled Scarlet into the corner and she missed the turnbuckles and smacked the steel post with her shoulder.  Candice pulled her into the middle of the ring and called for her signature move  - the Northern Lights Suplex and she connected.  She leaned heavily on Scarlett’s bum arm preventing her from kicking out.  Candice gets the win and retains her title (11 min).  She stands up and yanks the belt from the ref.  As she’s showboating, the crowd explodes when Ravishing Raquel comes out and runs down to the ring.  The two begin throwing lefts and rights and had to be separated by security.   The two kept trying to go at each other but as more and more security got in the ring, they were able to keep them apart.  The show comes to an end with the two of them jaw jacking against each other.

Thanks for reading.  Stay tuned as the Phoenix Super Show is up next.
