Hello fans and welcome back to another installment of HCW’s Phoenix Heat. Today’s show begins, not in the ring, but backstage. TV Champion The Unknown Assassin and his manager The Honorable J C Dykes shows up demanding why he’s (they are) not on the show. GM Master Bull tells him that the belts only need to be defended once month. Dykes demands UA get more air time. Bull asks “So what you’re telling me is that he wants to have weekly defenses of the title?” Dykes begins to backtrack. “No, he should be on the show without having to defend his title.” Bull shakes his head. “No, no…you convinced me. Effective this Sunday, the Unknown Assassin will defend the TV title once a week…alternating between Tacoma and in Phoenix.” Dykes stammers on but Bull walks away. UA looks at Dykes with a very annoyed look on his face. Dykes cracks a smile but I’m sure he’s not happy.
Pyro goes off and
our first match is ready to go. First,
Tobias Snake comes out to a mixed reaction from the crowd. Next, ‘Top Gun’ Justin Winger comes out and
the fans pop for him. He shakes hands
with some of the fans before sliding into the ring. Tobias attacked him before the bell pulling
him to the outside and hurling him into the steel steps. He then rolled Winger back in and told the
ref to ring the bell. Tobias went on a
tear with Winger not being able to put up much resistance. After about 7 minutes, Winger found his
groove and started making a comeback.
Tobias hit a lariat trying to slow down Winger’s offense but Top Gun
followed it up with nullifying a snap elbow drop from Tobias but then connected
with the Flyin’ & Stylin’ and rolled Tobias up for the 1-2-3. Top Gun gets the win and celebrates as Tobias
makes his way to the back. Winger follows shortly thereafter. (9 min)
The New Ladies
Champion Madame Jade comes out and the hometown fans pop huge for her. She makes her way into the ring. She talks about winning the title and how
much it meant for the fans to be there for her.
Former champion Candice Charisma comes out to crash the party demanding
an immediate rematch tonight. Jade tells
her it’s only fair to give Candice the same stipulation that was given to her
which was to put her career on the line.
Candice scoffs at this as she is already guaranteed a rematch. Jade replies with “sure but you’re not
necessarily first in line.” Candice gets
pissed and accepts. Jade tells her “Fine
but first, you have to fight Ravishing Raquel tonight to see which of you will
be the next in line.” Candice throws a
fit but regains her composure. Before
walking off, Candice gets in Jade’s face and says “Play your little game
sweetheart and live this up because you, like so many others, will lose the
belt before you get your first title defense in. HA HA.”
Candice storms off. Jade
celebrates with the fans and then leaves.
Next up, we are
ready for some tag team action. The
masked men known as the Machines make their way out. One has the letter B on his chest and the
other has the letter P. I guess this is
so we can tell the difference between the two.
They receive a modest pop from the crowd. The music changes and out comes the Ryzing
Storm. Terra Ryzing and his brother
Travis ‘Dark Storm’ Ryzing both make their way out to the ring. The fans boo the crap out of them. They act like they’re going to slug some of
the fans but show some restraint. They
attack the Machines as soon as the bell rings.
For 5 minutes, the Ryzing Storm beat the holy hell out of the
Machines. Man, this was like watching a
match with the Mulkey’s from the 80’s.
At the 6 minute mark, the Machines began a comeback and were able to
nullify any offense from the Storm. The
Machines then double-teamed Terra for 2 solid minutes much to the fans’
delight. Terra gets thrown out of the
ring but he’s back in pretty quick but B Machine quickly drops him with a
piledriver. While Terra is twitching on
the mat, B calls for another piledriver.
He picks up Terra and beautifully executes it. Machine P rushes over and takes out Travis. B makes the cover and gets the 3 count. The Machines rack up another win. They celebrate briefly before heading to the
back. Eventually, the Storm leave
also. (9 min)
Scooter J is
backstage and he says that he duped TNT into putting the first shot at the
interim World Champion on the line. He’s
going to dispatch him pretty quick and will take his rightful place in the
world title hunt.
In the interview
area, Ravishing Raquel comments that Candice is full of hot air. She expected to come into HCW as this raging
storm but has fizzled out like stale carbonated water. Raquel says she’s bided her time and once she
secures the win, she will get the next shot at the Ladies title.
We’re ready for
the next match. First, Scooter J comes
out and the crowd boos him all the way down to the ring. He doesn’t react and just ignores them. Next, TNT comes out and the place goes
absolutely bananas. TNT smiles as he
makes his way down to the ring. A one-time
scrawny but now ‘Atlas-physique’ mound of solid mass, TNT shakes hands with the
fans as he makes his way into the ring.
Scooter J motions with his hands that he’s going to ‘break’ TNT and then
the match begins and we are underway.
Scooter J got in the first lucky shot but then TNT, with his future
title shot on the line, ‘took the gloves off’ and really showed SJ a thing or
two. The crowd popped with every
explosive move TNT pulled out of his arsenal.
We join the match now at the 13 minute mark.

Candice Charisma
is backstage and she is ready to slap Raquel’s lying mouth. She says that Raquel calls herself a veteran
but in fact, she’s a relic that needs to be put away never to see the light of
day again. She calls Raquel delusional
if she thinks she can beat her. Tonight,
she shuts Raquel’s mouth once and for all.
After this, Jade is next.
It’s time for the
in-ring action to continue. First, Angry
Jack Lawson, who is, for whatever reason, always angry, makes his way down to
the ring first. The fans boo him and he
flips them off. Next, the music changes
and out comes Biceps Bannerman. Biceps
gets a huge pop from the crowd and makes his way to the ring. Jack meets him outside the ring and attacks
him trying to get the upper hand. Biceps
fights him off and rolls Jack back into the ring. He follows him in and the action officially
starts. Jack was just one step ahead of
Biceps but Bannerman was there with him the entire match. The two fought hard and fast keeping the fans
on the edges of their seats. Before we
knew it, the time limit was reached but these two weren’t done. After the bell rang, the two continued to
fight and refused to break it up. Even
after multiple referees and backstage hands came out to try and separate them
(and fail), Master Bull came out and ordered the two to stop. Bull said that they obviously didn’t have
enough time to get done what they wanted.
Bull promised them that they will get another shot in two weeks. The refs finally got them all to separate and
order had finally been restored. (20 min
for the match and 10 min for all the aftermath)
The Six Man Tag
Team Champions – The Banker and the Regulators – are backstage with their
manager Ruth Heartless. Ruth says she’s
speaking on behalf of the champions. She
tells us that no team in the world can stand up to the might of ‘Regulation’
and those who think they have a shot in hell (like their opponents tonight) are
sadly mistaken. She calls the Hubers a
bunch of backwater idiots who are quite a few brain cells short of an ape. Tonight, the champs make an example of the
Hubers and will show that they are in fact the cream of the crop and just shy
of a miracle happening (she doesn’t believe in miracles), nothing prevents HER
team from retaining. “You can try…and
you’ll fail.”
Our next match
decides who will be challenging for the Ladies title next. First, Candice Charisma comes out and the
fans boo her. Next, Ravishing Raquel
comes out and the fans pop in what could be the loudest of the night (in favor
of someone). Raquel immediately got in
the ring as Candice motioned for her to “bring it”. Candice took control of the match early on
but Raquel eventually took over after about the 6 minute mark. Candice tried to execute a Northern Lights
suplex but Raquel reversed it and connected with a moonsault which got a HUGE
pop from the crowd. Raquel then
motioned she was going for the arm and immediately locked in the Ravishing
Armbar. Candice struggled against it and
almost made it to the ropes but Raquel dragged her back into the center of the
ring. With nowhere to go, Candice tapped
out. Ravishing Raquel gets the win and
is next in line for the shot at the Ladies title. She celebrated briefly before leaving. Candice eventually got up and left nursing
her arm. (8 min)
We are then
treated to a video of King Rad Gumbo going out for a night out on the town and says
he’s taking us to his favorite restaurant.
He greets the Maître D and slips him some cash expecting to get the
royal treatment. After a moment, the Maître
D returns and tells Rad that he cannot eat here. Gumbo throws a fit. “Why the hell not?” “Well, it’s because of a restraining order
that prevents you from being within 100 feet of Buzz Steel.” “So, what does that have to do with my…are
you kidding me?” The camera shifts and
we see Buzz chowing down on some food.
He looks up, smiles and waves.
Gumbo gets all pissy and grabs his money back and storms out. Buzz sits there smirking while all the people
around him get a good laugh at the King’s expense.
It’s time for the
main event and it will be for the Six Man Tag Team Championship. First, the challengers the Hubers (Ferb,
Junior and Butch) come out and the fans give them a small pop just because of
who they are going against. Music
changes and out comes Ruth Heartless and the 6 Man tag team champs –
Regulation. The Banker leads the
Regulators down to the ring and the Regulators act like they’re going to attack
but back off and laugh trying to play mind games. The match begins with all 6 men in the ring
at the same time slugging it out. The
Hubers took control early on but after some ‘guidance’ from Ruth, the champs
kicked it into high gear. When the
champs were going for a pin or submission, the Huber’s were there to make the
save and vice-a-versa. The Banker was
getting increasingly frustrated that they couldn’t score a pin over their
opponents. A botched move by Regulator
Mammoth saw the Huber’s capitalize and take control of the match almost right
up until the end. As time began to wind
down, the Banker tagged in and immediately locked Butch up with the ATM Fee
armbar. Much to his credit, Butch wouldn’t
tap. As the clock got closer to the 30
minute mark, the Banker cinched back on the arm trying to get Butch to say the
magic words (I Quit) but he wouldn’t.
Finally, the bell rang bringing this one to a 30 minute exhaustive
finish. THAT is when Butch finally
tapped but at this point it didn’t matter as this was clearly a tie. From a point perspective, the challengers
were one move ahead and could therefore pursue a rematch against the
champions. Regulation took their belts
back and with Ruth in the ring with them, held them high as a draw still means
that they are still the champions. The
show comes to an end with them standing in the ring and the fans booing.
Thanks for reading. Be sure to follow the ongoing saga that is HCW as things are really starting to shape up.
