(Editor’s
note: It was referenced in the last
episode that Unknown Assassin had lost the TV title when he had his showdown
with Nix Anderson. What happened was
that UA did lose the title during a non-televised show but after Dykes showed
the footage of what truly happened, the decision was reversed so UA is still
the official champion.)
Hello fans and
welcome back to our newsletter. Well, at
the last show, we got a pretty substantial reveal in that GM Master Bull has
turned his back on HCW, the fans and the owners and sided with billionaire Cushman
Armitage and his lackey Emmett Millbarge.
It’s taken a few days to sink in and I think we’re still stunned by
Bull’s lack of dedication. The show
begins with “Money, money, monaaaaaaaaaay” playing and out comes Cushman,
Millbarge and the turncoat Master Bull.
Bull has a mic and tells the fans “Listen, a guy has a family to feed
and a business to run so I had to do what was best for me and mine. Many of you won’t care about my decision but
I had no choice. Max McGillicutty tried
to stand up to them and where is he now?
Unemployment line. Emmett and
Cushman have put their faith in me and together, the sky’s the limit.” The fans just kept booing him with some
holding “Why Bull Why?” signs and little kids were crying. Emmett takes the mic
and tells the fans to shut up. This only
got them more riled up. “What is done is
done and you’re bitching about it won’t solve anything. Bull has smartly joined team Cushman and we
will rule HCW.” Cushman takes the mic
and says that the next best thing – ‘Big Money’ Ned Rhyerson III will be on the
show tonight and he will have a message of his own for one person in
particular. The booing just got so
intense that Bull, Emmett and Cushman threw their arms up and left the
stage. I presume this means our show can
finally get started.
After pyro goes
off, our first match of the night kicks off.
First, Texas Wildfire comes out to a huge pop from the crowd. He high-fives the fans as he makes his way
down to the ring. Once in and has gotten
the crowd psyched up, the music changes and out comes the Ambassador followed
by ‘the Elitist’ Reid Rothchild. The
fans boo them as they make their way down to the ring. Reid flips off a few of the fans who were
jawjacking with him. He removed his
jacket and the bell rang. The Ambassador
was exiting out of the ring (a little too slow for the ref’s liking) and yelled
at him to get moving. The Ambassador
turned and (not realizing the bell actually rung) shoved the ref. The ref immediately disqualified Reid for
outside interference. Texas Wildfire
gets the DQ win without even breaking a sweat.
Master Bull comes out and the fans boo.
He says that the match won’t end like this and orders the match to be
restarted. Reid then attacks TW and
throws him hard into the steel post. TW
was on the defensive but after Reid hit the ReidBottom, he made the cover,
hooked the leg (and tights) and put his feet on the ropes for leverage and got
the 1-2-3. Reid gets the win in an
unsavory way but he doesn’t care. He and
the Ambassador celebrate before leaving.
TW is helped up and taken to the back.

Back in Emmett’s
office, Cushman and Emmett collectively announce that officially, every title
must be defended TWICE in every month.
That now means the champions are going to have to work that much harder
if they want to keep their belts.
Our next match is
ready to go. First, Fifth Column member
Baron von Blood comes out and he is booed pretty heavily. Next, Sonic Blade comes out and he gets a
nice pop from the crowd. Baron immediately
attacks him putting him at an early disadvantage. Baron used lots of illegal tactics to keep
his momentum going. Just when it seemed
like Sonic was getting some momentum of his own going, Baron locked in the Gas
Chamber Sleeper hold and just when Sonic was on the verge of unconsciousness,
Baron turned it into a cradle and got the pin.
Baron von Blood gets the win. He
then started to put the boots to Sonic but Sonic, with the crowd backing him
up, battled back and hit Baron with the Alhambra Attack (tackle) that send Von
Blood flying out of the ring. Baron
backed up the ramp cursing at Sonic.
Sonic celebrated with the fans at ringside for a few moments before
heading to the back. (8 min)
We cut up to the
Omegatron where a vignette is run showing different kinds of hail storms from
little pieces of ice to golf ball size.
At the end, it reads “Never underestimate the damage something so small
can do.” - Coming Soon: Hayley Hailstone.
We go back to the
ring for our third match of the night. Travis
‘Dark Storm’ Ryzing makes his way out to a mixed reaction from the crowd. Next, ‘Big Money’ Ned Rhyerson III comes out
and the fans boo the crap out of him. He
gets into the ring and calls for a mic.
He says that after he wipes the mat with this chump (point to Ryzing),
he is calling out that goof of a world champion Bad Gumbo (he claims the gumbo
got left out overnight and has spoiled).
The match begins and Ryzing put up a good fight and the match was pretty
even throughout. Both men tried to get a
leg up over the other but both would battle back bringing things back to an
even keel. Before we knew it, we were
almost at the 20 minute mark. Rhyerson
hit the Billion Dollar Dream but only got a one count. Big Money slaps on a headlock but then gets
caught by a powerslam. Travis then
locked in a power full nelson but right before it looked like Ned was going to
tap out, the bell rang bringing this one to a draw finish. The match ends with neither man getting the
win. Rhyseron was the first to leave as
I think he totally underestimated his opponent and was done for the night. (20 min draw)
Taylor Bella comes
out to comment about how often the Ladies title has changed hands ever since
she lost it. She says that she will
eventually get another shot and after that, the belt will stay put. She says that since she’s out here, she might
as well wrestle so she demands an opponent be sent out. That brings out Missy Chick who comes out to
mixed reaction from the crowd. Taylor
attacks her before she gets to the ring and tosses her in. The bell then rings and this one is off. Taylor got the early advantage but the longer
the match went on, the more Missy began to take over. 10 minutes in and Missy was owning
Taylor. Taylor threw Missy into the
corner and went to charge but Missy moves and Taylor went sailing between the
turnbuckles and hit her shoulder against the steel post. She tried to shake off the numbness but Missy
kept the pressure on. Missy kept
inflicting damage to Taylor’s arm and when she thought the time was right, she
locked in a scissored armbar. Trapped in
the center of the ring, Taylor had no choice but to tap out. Missy gets the win via submission. Taylor cradled her arm and rolled out of the
ring and made her way to the back. Missy
followed moments later. (14 min)
Backstage, Emmett
meets with the 6 man tag team champions Regulation and informs them about the
recent change of events. He tells the
Banker that since champions are now required to defend their titles twice a
month, he is giving them the option to defend them tonight against the Muscles
Trio or tonight can be a non-title match but they will have to defend them
again in a week. Ruth stepped up and
said that her team was not expecting to defend the titles so tonight can be the
non-title match and they will be ready in a week to defend them. Emmett says “Good to hear” and walks
off. Regulation heads to the ring for
their match.
As our next match
begins, the Muscles Trio come out and they are wearing their rainbow colored
bull horns and carrying boxes of Booty-O’s cereal. They act all goofy as they head down to the
ring. Muscles McGuire even takes a
handful of cereal and Weasley, impersonating Seymour from ‘Little Shop of
Horrors’ exclaims “Feed Me” and McGuire shoves the cereal into his mouth. The fans get a little laugh. Their skit is cut short when Regulation, led
by Ruth Heartless, make their way out.
Regulation goes right on the offensive and totally owned the match. Ruth stayed clear of the ring as the Banker
and the Regulators knew what they were doing.
Once the time hit the 20 minute mark, Ruth motioned for them to wrap
things up. Weasley went for a dropkick
but Mammoth reversed it and hit a hip toss. He then tagged the Banker in. McGuire is also tagged in. The Banker hits a Credit Check Chop but
McGuire drops him with a midnight hour diving DDT. He goes for the pin but the Banker kicks out
immediately. The Banker hits a deposit
diving DDT but he is a bit more aware of his surroundings and after rolling
McGuire up, he put a foot on the ropes for leverage and got the 1-2-3. Regulation gets the win and goes in with a
positive tick in the win column. The
Muscles Trio left first and Regulation, after showboating, left soon
afterwards. (23 min)
The ring is
cleared up and music hits and out comes the Steel Curtain – Buzz and Starbuck
Steel. They make their way to the ring
where a table has been set up for their contract signing. Next, Emmett Millbarge comes out and heads to
the ring. Finally, ‘the Ragin Cajun’
King Rad Gumbo and Queen Alexandria make their way out and they are booed quite
loudly. Emmett reminds everyone that if
neither Buzz nor Starbuck get the pin or submission, then they are no longer
eligible for a future title shot as long as Gumbo is the champion. Buzz and Starbuck sign it immediately. Gumbo hems and haws and takes his sweet time
(he picked up the contract and began walking around the ring ‘reading’
it). Once he was satisfied there was no quirky
shenanigans going on, he signed it. Buzz
and Starbuck both got in his face and Gumbo reminded them that only one of them
could win. Would one brother do the job
for the other? Starbuck and Buzz then
looked questioningly at each other and began to have a heated conversation of
their own. Gumbo looked on and
laughed. Eventually the Steel Curtain
and Emmett left but right before Rad was leaving, he took the mic. “Rhyerson, mon-ami, if you want to pick a
fight with dis Cajun, you know where to find me.” Gumbo and Queen Alexandria then left also.
It’s time now for
our main event. First, Machine B comes
out to a nice pop from the crowd. He
doesn’t get much in the way of fan face time as music changes and out comes the
TV champion the Unknown Assassin and his manager J C Dykes. Dykes takes a mic and says Nix just can’t
seem to get the job done and he’s even been surpassed by a masked goofball in
Machine B. UA takes the mic and tells Nix once he learns
to count (to three), then maybe he’ll be given a shot at the title. For the first few minutes, Machine B held his
own and Dykes started questioning if they’d underestimated their opponent but
then the Unknown Assassin turned up the heat and began to own the match. The match did go longer than Dykes had
expected but once UA slapped on a nerve pinch and Machine B was sufficiently
weakened, UA went for the pin and got the three count. The Unknown Assassin gets the win and
continues his winning streak. He and Dykes then began showboating in the ring
just as the show was coming to an end.
However, before the final credits could roll, Nix Anderson hits the ring
and attacks UA. The two brawl all over
the ring, outside the ring, up the ramp and on the stage. A bunch of refs came out from the back and
did their best to break them up. The show ended with both men struggling
against the barriers of men holding them back trying to get at each other.
Stay tuned as our
Super Show is up next.
