HCW Wrestling Newsletter 2018 #695 – Phoenix Heat


Hello fans and welcome back to another installment of HCW’s Phoenix Heat.   The show begins backstage with GM Master Bull arriving and heading to his office.  He is cut off by crony Emmett Millbarge.  Emmett asks Bull where he thinks he’s going.  “My office you dolt.  Now get out of my way.”  Emmett puts a hand up.  “Not so fast.  Actually, you aren’t needed here so go on and scoot on home little man.”   Bull gets right in Emmett’s face and grabs him by his shirt.  “You want to see this ‘little man’ kick your ass?”  Emmett asks “Was that a threat?  Oh my, I think I’ve been threatened.  Security!”  A handful of Phoenix’s finest walk over.  Emmett continues “Good people, this man just threatened me and I want him escorted off the premises.”  One of the police asks “He’s the general manager right?  I think he has a right to be here.”   Emmett puffs out his chest.  “I’M the one in charge here and I’m demanding he be removed from here.”  The officer states that Bull hasn’t done anything to warrant being removed.   Emmett then calls for an instant replay and its shown where Bull put his hands on Emmett.  The officer shakes his head.  “Master Bull, will you come with us please?”  Bull glared at Emmett and left with the officers.  After everyone was gone, Emmett exclaimed, “Well, that was easy.  One down, one to go (referring to Tacoma GM Max McGillicutty) and the show is OURS!”  He laughs as the segment ends and we head to the ring.

Pyro goes off and our first match begins.  Missy Chick makes her way out first to a decent pop from the crowd.  Next, Taylor Bella comes out and she is booed.  The match begins almost immediately and Taylor got in one good shot before Missy took control of the match.  Both women got in some good licks but Missy did her best to keep Taylor down.  Missy tried to wear down Taylor by slapping on a scissored armbar but Taylor made it to the ropes to break the hold.  Taylor came back with a sunset flip but only got a 2 count.  She hits a second sunset flip but Missy made it to the ropes to break the hold.  Missy then took Taylor off her feet and kept her on the defensive.  Taylor went to the ropes but didn’t do anything so Missy connected with a Missy Plex.  Missy makes the cover and gets the 3 count.  Missy gets the win and celebrates with the fans while Taylor leaves the ring in a huff.  (17 min)

Emmett confronts a few of the wrestlers backstage and asks who wants to skyrocket to stardom.  Tobias Snake, Angry Jack and Travis ‘Dark Storm’ Ryzing are the first to speak up.  Emmett says that they will all be in matches tonight and if they win, there may be some gold in their future.

We head back to the ring for our next match.  First, Muscles Thorpe comes out wearing his rainbow colored bull horns and his box of Booty-O’s cereal.  He laughs with the fans as he makes his way down to the ring.   His fun is cut short when the Ambassador and ‘The Elitist’ Reid Rothchild come out.  The fans boo them as they head to the ring.   Reid gets into the ring and begins to stretch.  Thorpe pulls out a handful of cereal and throws it laughingly at Reid.  That pissed him off and he attacked Thorpe.  Reid got in one good shot but then Thorpe began tossing Reid around like a ragdoll.  The Ambassador kept yelling to Reid trying to give him some instructions but Thorpe would rush over and the Ambassador had to keep backing off form the ring.  Thorpe then hits a rib breaker but then gets tossed out of the ring by Reid.  Reid, nursing his ribs, distracted the ref while the Ambassador blasted Thorpe with a steel chair. He then backed off and the ref began his count.  As soon as he hit 10 and it was apparent that Thorpe wasn’t going to make it back in, the bell rings and Reid scores a win via countout.  The Ambassador joins him in the ring and the two celebrate much to the dismay of the fans.  They eventually leave.  (7 ½ min)

The Undisputed World Champion ‘the Ragin Cajun’ King Rad Gumbo shows up with Queen Alexandria on his arm.  As they are making their way backstage, they are stopped by former champs Buzz and Starbuck Steel.  Starbuck says they have a great idea for the supershow.  Starbuck says that they should have a Triple Threat match for the title.  Gumbo asks why he should do that.  Buzz says that if Rad agrees and wins the match, neither he nor Starbuck will challenge for the World title while Rad is still champion.   Before Rad could answer, Emmett Millbarge walks over and says he thinks it’s a great idea and says that he will pencil that in for the Main Event at the Supershow.  Emmett walks off and Buzz and Starbuck eventually follow leaving Rad to say “What in the hell just happened?”

Our next match is ready to go.  First, Travis ‘Dark Storm’ Ryzing makes his way out to booing from the fans.  Next, Buzz Steel comes out and the fans flip out.  They seem to love this lovable lunk.  Buzz high fives the fans as he makes his way down into the ring.  Once in the ring, Buzz points to the back and then motions that he will soon be champion again.  For the first 5 minutes of the match, Buzz held Travis to two offensive moves.  He then opened a major can of whoopass and dominated the rest of the match until he finally decided he’d had enough and then dropped Travis with the Buzzkill.  Buzz goes for the pin and secures the 3 count.  Buzz gets the win and the fans pop huge for him.  He celebrates with the fans briefly at ringside and then makes his way to the back.  (14 min)

Millbarge is backstage and said he’s not happy so far with what he’s seen. He sees Angry Jack backstage and tells him that he’d better not let him down.  Jack walks over to him (towering over him) and says “Yeah?  And you’ll do what exactly?”  Emmett visibly gulped and then took a step back.  “Yeah, that’s what I thought.”  Jack then walked off.  Emmett, shaken, made a beeline for his office.

We head back to the ring for our next match.  First, Tobias Snake, one member of the Snake Pit, makes his way out first and he is gets a mixed reaction from the crowd.  Next, Texas Wildfire makes his way out and the fans pop huge for him. TW rushes down to the ring and slides into the ring under to bottom rope.  It doesn’t take long for the two of them to lock it up but Wildfire took the advantage early however the longer the match dragged on, the more of a comeback Tobias was making.  Wildfire went for a pin early on after locking in a standing armbar getting a one count and that is when Tobias make his run.  TW managed to control most of the match but Tobias kept on increasing the intensity.  TW began peppering Tobias with rapid fire punches and Tobias came back with a Lou Thesz press.   Tobias got up and began psyching himself up only to turn around into a bionic elbow from TW.  Wildfire went for the pin hooking the leg and got the 1-2-3.  Texas Wildfire gets the win and a huge pop from the crowd.  Tobias rolled out of the ring and made his way to the back.  TW followed a few moments later.  (17 min)

Sonic Blade is backstage and is confronted by Emmett.  He tells Sonic that he’s the lucky recipient taking on Angry Jack Lawson.  He laughs and walks off.  Sonic’s cell phone rings and he answers.  It’s Phoenix GM Master Bull and we hear Bull give Sonic some direction before ending the call just a few moments later.  Sonic looks around and makes his way out to the ring.

Sonic’s music hits and he makes his way out to the ring.  The fans pop for him as he makes his way down to the ring.  The music changes and out comes the angriest member of the HCW roster – ‘Angry’ Jack Lawson.  Pyro goes off and flames shoot out of the ringposts startling Sonic.  Lawson makes his way down to the ring and enters over the top rope.  He goes right on the offensive but Sonic stayed right there with him.  Jack kept trying to turn up the intensity but Sonic just kept going…and going…and going…right up to the 20 minute time limit.  When the bell rang bringing this one to a draw finish, Sonic still looked quite fresh while Jack looked like he spent everything in his tank.  Jack tried to raise his aggression level back up but felt it wasn’t worth the effort and he left the ring.  Sonic celebrated his draw with the fans and then eventually left.  (20 min draw)

In preparation for their upcoming match, Ivan Dragovich, Red McNulty and Wendell Hammerschmidt say that they’ve been overlooked for some time in trying to get this title match but tonight, they will persevere.  Wendell says it’s their time and tonight, those belts are leaving with them.

Also backstage cutting their own promo are the Six Man Tag team Champs – Regulation.  The Banker, Ruth Heartless and the Regulators Mule and Mammoth say that they are ready to defend their belts.  They will be up some rough and vicious opponents however they are nothing compared to the champs.  Ruth chimes in and says that teams can cry and complain all they want but the #1 team in HCW will hold these belts until they’re good and ready to let them go.  They then leave and head to the ring.

It’s time for our Main Event.  First, Ivan Dragovich, Red McNulty and Wendell Hammerschmidt all make their way out to the ring and are booed.  Next, the champs Regulation come out with their manager Ruth Heartless and they are booed even worse.  The Banker sneers at the fans as they make their way to the ring.  They don’t get much time in the way of showboating as the bell is rung pretty fast.   Ivan and his team took the advantage early when Wendell used a pair of handcuffs and cuffed Ruth Heartless away from the ring so that she would be a non-factor.  Ivan, Red and Wendell began to dominate the champs and it wasn’t until after the Banker made a hot tag to Regulator Mammoth that things changed.  Wendell got tagged in but immediately got caught in a sleeperhold.  The Banker and Regulator Mule then took out Ivan and Red and with no one to make the save, Wendell tapped out.  Regulation gets the win and retains their titles.  The show comes to an end with the champs and Ruth (who finally got freed) celebrated in the ring as the fans booed.  (6 min)

Stay tuned.  More action to follow.
