Hello fans and welcome back to another installment of HCW’s Phoenix Heat. The show begins back in GM Max McGillicutty’s office. He comments now that Rad cashed in both his MITB contracts and lost, he’s out of the title hunt. Max then proclaims Starbuck Steel as the #1 contender.
Backstage Buzz is
backstage laughing at Gumbo for cashing in 2 MITB contracts and losing them
both. Buzz is then blindsided by Gumbo who attacks
him with a chair. Starbuck rushes to
his brother’s aid but not before Buzz is taken out the hard way. Gumbo is ejected from the building. Buzz is taken to the doctor backstage to be
checked out.
Ladies Champion
Candice shows up and calls Phoenix roster inferior. GM Master Bull walks over and he’s still
upset about the attack on Buzz and shuts Candice down and says that tonight,
she will take part of a Fatal Four way vs Starr Vixen, Madame Jade & El
Gato Negro. Bull heads back to the medical
office backstage.
Buzz is checked
out but it’s clear he won’t be able to defend his title in the next 30
days. Buzz will not be stripped of the
title but Starbuck and Rad will meet to determine the interim champ and that
person will meet Buzz at the July PPV to unify the belts. Just then, ‘the Elitist’ Reid Rothchild and
‘Top Gun’ Justin Winger walk into Max’s office and say it should be top 4
fighting for that right. Bull kicks them
out of his office and calls Tacoma GM Max McGillicutty and after a lengthy
discussion, they decide it will be top 8 (four from each brand) fighting for
the interim title but each fed will host their own mini tournaments to
determine who gets the right to fight for the interim belt. Those matches begin tonight.
Master Bull picks:
1.
Starbuck Steel vs the Elitist Reid
Rothchild
2.
Rad Gumbo vs Sonic Blade
3.
Top Gun Justin Winger vs Scooter J
Ravishing Raquel
vs Taylor Bella
Fatal four way set
up vs Starr Vixen, Madame Jade & El Gato Negro.
4.
Texas Wildfire vs the Unknown
Assassin – TV title match – the winner will move on to the tourney
Our show begins
with some pyro and Elitism manager the Ambassador comes out and following him
is ‘The Elitist’ Reid Rothchild. Both
men are booed as they head to the ring.
Upon entering the ring, Reid begins to spout off at the fans and the ref
approaches the Ambassador. He tells the
manager that the GM has declared that he would not be allowed at ringside and
is sent to the back. Reid complains but
it does no good. Reid has to win this
one on his own. Next, Starbuck Steel
makes his way out and the fans pop huge for him. He walks down to the ring and passes by the
Ambassador who bumps Starbuck as he makes his way down to the ring. Starbuck gets in the ring and after he climbs
the first turnbuckle, Reid attacks him from behind. Starbuck owned the match keeping Reid two
steps behind. However, the longer the
match dragged on, it appeared that Starbuck started to get wobbly. This allowed Reid to start a comeback. By the 18 minute mark, Starbuck was almost
out on his feet. The only explanation is
that somehow the Ambassador did something to him. In an act of desperation, Starbuck connected
with a hangman DDT but Reid got to his feet first and connected with the
Rothchild Stunner. He rolled Starbuck up
and put his feet on the ropes for leverage and the ref counted 1-2-3. Reid Rothchild gets the win and moves on in
the tournament. The fans voice their
displeasure but he doesn’t care and laughs all the way to the back. (19 min)
Ravishing Raquel
is backstage and she says that tonight, the road back to the Ladies title
continues and she takes on Taylor Bella.
Raquel says she respects Taylor a lot more than Candice and with a win
tonight, the #1 spot is only a grasp away.
She knows she has to go through Taylor but is confident the soon-to-be
next champ will come out on top.
We head back to
the ring for our next match. Sonic Blade
makes his way out first and the fans pop for him. Next, Queen Alexandria comes out and ‘the
Ragin Cajun’ King Rad Gumbo comes out to a blaring “Gumbo 7:30 says its suppa
time bitch” and his royalness heads down to the ring with his queen. Gumbo tried to attack Sonic right away but
ended up getting dumped out of the ring.
Gumbo would slam his hands on the mat multiple times (maybe expressing
his frustration) before getting back in the ring. Once back in, the bell rings starting this
one off. Sonic took control of the
match early on but Queen Alexandria got involved a few times. Sonic drops Gumbo with an Alhambra Attack but
somehow Gumbo makes it to the ropes to break the hold. Sonic got up and was going to hit it again
but Gumbo caught him and connected with the Where ya At (quick jabs) and rolled
Sonic up and with a handful of tights, he got the pin at the 14 min mark. King Rad Gumbo gets the win and he and Queen Alexandria
immediately leave. Sonic tried to
complain to the ref but what’s done is done.
Gumbo moves on in the tournament.
Back in his
office, Master Bull has gathers up all the footage from the multiple camera
angles and brings in HCW’s forensic mastermind Gardinia Blue and gives her all
the footage to review to see if there was any funny business when Starbuck and
the Ambassador passed each other on the ramp.
She takes it and says she’ll comb through it and will have an answer
back before the end of the show.
It’s time for our
3rd match. Scooter J comes
out first and he is booed all the way down to the ring. Next, Justin Winger comes out and the fans
pop huge for him. He makes his way down
to the ring and he and Scooter J immediately go nose to nose. Scooter J hits a low blow as the ref turns to
call for the start of the match. He then
pulled Winger to the corner and wrapped both Winger’s arm and leg against the
steel post. That totally grounded Winger
as he struggled to stay upright while balancing on one good leg. 15 minutes in, Scooter J catches Winger with
a superkick but SJ took too long showboating before going for a pin. Winger was able to kick out at 2. Scooter J, pissed, picked up Winger and
delivered the nastiest eye rake of all eye rakes. He then rolled up Justin from behind and with
a blatant handful of tights, he got the 3 count. Scooter J gets the win at the 16 minute mark
and moves on in the tournament.
Taylor Bella is
making the walk towards the ring and she is stopped and asked about what she
thought of the comments Ravishing Raquel made earlier and she scrunches up her
face and just keeps walking towards the ring.
El Gato Negro,
Madame Jade and Starr Vixen are backstage.
Even though El Gato does not play nicely with the rest of the division,
she says that she agrees that tonight, Ladies Champion Candice Charisma will
think twice about mocking their division.
Our next match
starts off with Taylor Bella coming out and heading to the ring. The fans boo as she makes her way down. She does her best to ignore them but the fans
just know how to get under her skin. Next,
Ravishing Raquel comes out and the fans pop huge for her. She makes her way to the ring and gets in
right away. She climbs two of the corner
turnbuckles before Taylor pulled her down and yelled at her to get this
started. Raquel dominated the match
(like she always seems to) and totally owned the match up against Taylor. She hit Taylor with multiple diving knee
drops and subsequent pin attempts but Taylor kept grabbing the ropes to break
the hold. Raquel pulled Taylor right
into the middle of the ring and delivered one last diving knee drop and this
time, with no ropes to grab, Raquel gets the 1-2-3 and the win. The fans pop for her and she makes her way to
the back while Taylor struggles to her feet in the ring and follows shortly
thereafter. (10 min)
Texas Wildfire is
backstage and says that tonight begins the start to what will turn out to be
the best year of his career. He will
defeat the Unknown Assassin to regain the TV title and will then move on to get
the Interim World Title.
It’s time for our
next match. One by one, the 4
competitors to our Ladies Fatal Four way may their way out to the ring. First, Starr Vixen, El Gato Negro and Madame
Jade all made their way to the ring.
Lastly, the Ladies Champion Candice Charisma makes her way out and she
does not look like she wants to be here.
She immediately grabs a mic once she gets in the ring and reminds
everyone that her title is NOT on the line tonight. She will take the best Phoenix has to offer
and will still walk away as the #1 superstar in all of HCW. The match begins and Candice lives up to her
reputation and totally owned the match.
However, the Phoenix ladies started to fight amongst themselves and
Candice just sat out. After 27 minutes, El Gato Negro turned her
frustrations to Candice. El Gato slapped
the champ across the face and Candice retaliated with a dropkick that sent El
Gato tumbling into the middle of the ring.
She got to her feet and Starr Vixen caught her totally unaware with a vicious
clothesline. Starr immediately made the
cover and got the 3 count. Starr Vixen gets
the win. Candice grabbed her title and
laughed all the way to the back. Starr
and Madame Jade both left the ring and El Gato followed eventually. (28 min)
Gardinia Blue goes
into Master Bull’s office and sitting there are (a groggy) Starbuck Steel, the
Ambassador and ‘the Elitist’ Reid Rothchild.
She says that she has gone through all the footage and has determined
that the Ambassador did in fact stick Starbuck Steel with a syringe of some
sort that must have drugged him. The
Ambassador and Reid try to deny the fact but Bull shuts them up. Bull says the evidence is just enough for him
to actually reverse the ref’s decision for the match between Starbuck and Reid
and Reid is now OUT of the tournament and Starbuck is in. The Ambassador says he’s going to sue Bull,
HCW and everyone involved in this travesty.
Starbuck says that he wants one
more match against Reid but this time in a Steel Cage. Reid tries to complain but Bull says he
accepts the match or he’ll be fired along with his manager. Reid reluctantly agrees. The two will have one more match with the
winner moving on. Bull says that Gardinia
Blue has mad skills.
It is time for our
main event. First, Texas Wildfire comes
out and the fans go absolutely nuts. He
high fives the fans all the way down to the ring and then those at ringside. As soon as he enters the ring and climbs the
turnbuckle, the music changes and out comes the TV Champion the Unknown
Assassin and his manager J C Dykes. The
duo are booed all the way down to the ring.
UA and Dykes get into the ring.
Dykes grabs a mic and tells everyone they will get to witness the
embarrassment that will befall Wildfire and the rise or the next World
Champion. The ref reminds us that the
winner of the match will be the one who will be moving on and Dykes points to
UA. The bell rings to start this one off. Dykes started off with slipping the Unknown
Assassin a foreign object and he used to his advantage and controlled the pace
of the match. 12 minutes in, TW connects
with a Hangman’s Clothesline but he only got a 2 count. Dykes then got involved and the Honorable J
C Dykes executed a Slams opponent's leg into the Ring Pole while ref distracted
and TW was then on the defensive. TW
wasn’t able to accomplish much on his bum leg but after a few minutes, he was
able to shake off the numbness. Wildfire
started an offensive run and he hit another hangman’s clothesline but Dykes
blew a whistle and that distracted TW from trying to attempt a pin. TW started to ramp things up again but Dykes
got up and threw a fireball (enough of a distance away to only singe his hair)
and the ref immediately disqualified the Unknown Assassin. UA is disqualified but doesn’t lose the TV
title however that takes him out of the running for the interim World Title
hunt. Texas Wildfire gets the win via DQ
and moves on in the tournament. He’s not
all that happy about it but is happy he made it to the final four.
Master Bull comes
out and thanks the fans for sticking around and says that he’s not leaving
tonight until things are sorted out between Starbuck Steel and Reid
Rothchild. The ring crew come out and
set up the steel cage. Once it was
completed, Bull calls both men out to have our second main event of the night.
Both Reid and
Starbuck made their way out separately and enter the cage. There was no delay in getting this one
going. All the wrongs that Reid
inflicted in their last match were made up in this one.
