HCW Wrestling Newsletter 2019 #775 – Tacoma Thunder (6/23) - SUPERSHOW


Hello fans and welcome back to our newsletter.  Tonight, we present to you, live from Tacoma, WA our Super Show commemorating 775 issues of the wrestling newsletter.  HCW continues to bring you action from some of the greatest stars in the business.  Tonight, we will have one title match with TV Champion Drew the Canadian Love Machine defending his title against the Axe.    Our main event will be headlined by World Champion the Banker putting his career on the line against Phoenix’s GM Master Bull who will be putting his career as GM of the Phoenix on the line.  Tonight, there must be a winner – a draw will not suffice.  


The show begins back in the office of GM Max McGillicutty.  He is with Master Bull.  They are going over some papers.  Bull starts up “So in the event that somehow, I lose, this should all go into effect.”  Max says “He may not be on the best footing with the fans but you know, we can’t go wrong with having the Wicked Prophet as the ref.  He may be teaming with Apollo (Master Bull rolls his eyes) but he calls it as he sees it and we don’t have to worry about a payoff.”  “Fine” Master Bull says. “That takes care of that.  Now, we have to ensure that the Banker’s manager Ruth Heartless is banned from ringside.  Any sense of impropriety and the Banker loses and is out.  Now, if I so happen to lose, what will happen with the GM spot?”  Max thinks about it “Well, I can run both shows or we could look as a temporary GM…wait….what is this?”  Max takes a closer look at the contract.  “Well, if that doesn’t take the cake.  This says that if the Banker wins, he gets to choose the next GM.”  “Well, F**K” Master Bull exclaimed.  “I better make sure he doesn’t win.”


Pyro goes off and our show is ready to go.  The show begins with Davis ‘the Hoff’ Hoffmeister coming out to a HUGE pop from the crowd.  Davis makes his way down to the ring and is ready to begin.  The Banker appears on the Omegatron and says that he thought long and hard about it and finally settled on this person to destroy Davis and make sure he never gets a World title shot.  The loudspeakers blare out “VAMPIRE LUNGES FOR EVERYONE” and out comes the evil vampire Dr. Red Fang.  Up on the Omegatron, the Banker is laughing.  Fang makes his way out snarling and growling at the booing fans.  Fang gets in the ring and immediately attacks Davis starting the match off.  After the initial attack, it was all Davis.  Fang narrowly got counted out 3 times but each time Davis brought him back into the ring.  Davis went for multiple pin attempts but Fang kept kicking out each time.  After making it back into the ring after getting tossed out, Fang gets caught with a flying drop kick from Davis.  The Banker shows up on the Omegatron and mocks Davis after Fang kicked out at 1.  Davis whipped Fang to the ropes and hit a huge clothesline. Davis makes the cover hooking the leg and smirks at the Banker’s image on the screen as the ref’s hand hits the mat for a 3rd time.  Davis Hoffmeister gets the win and enters the World title top 10.  Davis leaves to a huge pop from the crowd.  (18 min)


Backstage, Sassy Maxine DeVito says she’s going to melt that hailstone and she’ll be nothing more than a teeny tiny puddle of water.  She laughs as she walks off camera.


The crowd pops as Hayley Hailstone’s music hits.  She comes out and high-fives the fans and then rushes to the ring sliding under the bottom rope.  She climbs each of the corner turnbuckles and the fans pop.  She has changed her look and the fans seem to notice.  The music changes and out comes Sassy Maxine DeVito.  The fans boo her but she doesn’t care.  She walks down to the ring with a smirk and a swagger that tells the fans that they can ‘stick it’.  She gets into the ring and walks up to Hayley and towers over her trying to intimidate her.  Hayley hits a leg sweep and brings Maxine crashing down to the mat. The fans pop.  The bell rings starting this one off.  The two brawled for 7 minutes before Hayley hit the “What the Hail?” and went for a pin.  Maxine was able to kick out and then rolled out of the ring to give herself a break.  She came back in but Hayley was waiting for her.  Hayley drops her with a DDT but only gets a 2 count.  Maxine attempted a rollup grabbing a handful of tights but Hayley kicked out at 1.  The match would go back and forth but Hayley was in control for most of it.  As the time limit began ticking down, Hayley hit the ‘What the Hail?’ but the match took its toll on her and she was slow to make the cover.  Finally she got an arm draped over Maxine but Maxine kicked right out.  28 minutes in, Maxine hit two consecutive ‘Sass Attacks’ but when she went for the pin, Hayley found the intestinal fortitude to kick out much to Maxine’s amazement.   Maxine yelled “What do I have to do to put you down?”  Hayley got up and hit a lifting reverse S.T.O.  She made the cover hooking the leg at got the 1-2-3.  Hayley Hailstone wins this one in HUGE fashion.  The fans pop is almost deafening.  Hayley has secured the #1 spot for the Ladies title after this win.  Maxine sulked to the back and Hayley celebrated with the fans before leaving.  (29 min)


We head backstage for a promo from Texas Wildfire.  TW says that Matches Malone has been a thorn in his side for some time and now it’s time for him to end this. 


We’re back at the ring for our next match.  First, Matches Malone comes out to booing from the crowd.  He flicks matchsticks at them which just makes them all the more irate.  He gets into the ring and mocks the fans.  The music changes and the fans pop at Texas Wildfire makes his way out.  He wastes no time and rushes the ring and Malone bails.  Wildfire motions for Malone to get back in the ring but Malone takes his time.  Finally, Malone makes his way in and the match begins.  This one is an all out brawl.  They seem to have thrown the rule book out as the ref gave up trying to maintain order.  After about 15 minutes, the two finally became more manageable and the ref got back in to make a count after Malone reversed a move from Wildfire and dropped him with an overhead right.  He only got a 2 count which infuriated Malone.   Wildfire hits a Hangman’s Clothesline and goes for a pin but Malone kicks out.   Wildfire went for a snap powerslam but it was reversed and Malone went for some overhead rights but TW moved at the last minute nullifying the move.  As we entered the final minute of the match, Malone kicked TW in the gut but Wildfire locked in a standing armbar.  The bell rang bringing this one to a draw finish.  Malone left and grabbed a mic.  He mocked the fact that TW can’t seem to beat him at anything and he went on saying that he could defeat TW in any kind of match.  TW got a mic and asked “So if I pick one final match, you’re good with that?”  Malone laughed and said yes as he wants to be done with Wildfire.  “Any Match…just to clarify.”  Malone let out an exhaustive “yes”.  Wildfire smiled and said that at the July Meltdown PPV in just a few weeks, the two of them will meet…on a SCAFFOLD!  Malone panicked and tried to back out but the challenge had been made and accepted.  It looks like their feud comes to an end with someone getting seriously hurt.  (Draw)


We head backstage for another set of interviews.  First, we begin with the Axe.  Axe says he feels he been languishing in mediocrity and not used to his full potential.  Ever since he lost the World Title, he’s been relegated to mid card status and now he has a chance to become TV champion.  He looks forward to showing Drew who the better man is.


Also backstage is the TV Champion Drew the Canadian Love Machine.  Drew says that Axe is a tower of a man but the bigger they are, the harder they fall.  Drew tells Axe not to underestimate him or the backing of his fans – the CLM’ers.  Drew says he’ll meet Axe in the ring.


Our next match is ready to begin.  First, the Axe comes out to a nice pop from the crowd.  He however doesn’t interact with them as he makes his way down to the ring.  He gets in and leans over the top rope on each side with a raised arm in the air.   Next, the music changes and out comes the TV Champion Drew the Canadian Love Machine.  The pop from the fans is nearly deafening.  Drew comes out with the TV title around his waist and he high fives the fans as he makes his way down and around the ring.  He climbs in, removes the title and climbs the turnbuckle holding the belt high.  The fans pop again.  He drops down heading to the next turnbuckle but Axe stands in his way.  Axe is much taller than Drew and is using his size to intimidate the champ.  Drew just stares at him and walks around him.  He poses with the title again and again the fans respond.  The match can finally begin as Drew hands his title to the ref who holds it high.   Axe dominated the first few minutes but then the champ took over.  Axe did get a couple of near falls after hitting the champ with the Axe.  Leading into the final moments of the match, it was closer than anyone could have expected.  Axe goes for a power punch but Drew neutralizes it.  Drew catches Axe with a superkick that stunned the big man.  Axe managed to shake it off and picked up Drew for a backbreaker but then there was an interruption on the Omegatron…we hear “TIIMMMMMMBBBEEERRRRRR” and see a guy wearing a flannel shirt.  The video turned off a few seconds later but Axe had become distracted by it and had dropped Drew.  Drew then hit Axe with the Lover Bomb and made the cover and hooking the leg to get the 3 count just seconds before the match was set to expire.  Drew wins the match and retains his title in a very hard fought match.  Axe was pissed and he left the ring storming to the back to see just what the hell that was.  Drew stayed and celebrated with the fans before also leaving.  (20 min)


We cut to the interview area where Phoenix Heat GM Master Bull is being interviewed.  Master Bull is asked what he thinks his chances are at winning.  “The Banker is a bully.  I don’t have to be wary of any outside interference as he doesn’t have any friends and no one will save his ass.  For those of you who may not remember, I DID have a stint in the ring when I was part of the Super Warrior’s team – then I was known as Centurion – the Roman Warrior.  I haven’t forgotten what it’s like to be in a ring and the Banker will be looking for a new place to call home before you know it.”


Also backstage cutting his own promo is the World Champion the Banker.  The Banker is with his manager Ruth Heartless.  The interviewer asks if the Banker realized that Ruth is not allowed at ringside for this match.  “What?  What are you talking about?  Of course my manager will be with me at ringside.”  The Banker is handed a piece of paper he about loses it.  “SON OF A BITCH”…Master Bull, you’re going to pay dearly for that.”  He and Ruth then storm off.


Back in GM Max McGillicutty’s office, he is with the Wicked Prophet.  “Prophet, I can’t tell you how much is riding on this.  Are you up to the challenge?”  “Max, I am the US Champion.  I am prepared for anything.  Speaking of which, when am I back on TV defending my title?”  Max looks at his papers.  “Looks like a week back here in Tacoma…and it will be against former champion Leon Teremoto.”  “Got it” WP replied.  “Now if you’ll excuse me, I have a match to go call.”  Prophet walks out the door and heads toward the ring.  A figure dressed in black quietly sneaks over to Max’s office and placed a padlock on his office.  Max hears something but realizes he’s been locked in his office.  Uh Oh.  The figure in black creeps away.


It’s time for our Main Event.  At stake…The Banker’s job (and subsequently the World Title) as well as his manager Ruth Heartless’ position within the company against Master Bull’s managing of the Phoenix Heat brand.  We learned that Ruth is banned from ringside so this one will be up to the Banker to make it all happen on his own.  We were also just told that this will be a no DQ/no countout match to ensure there is a winner.  First, the Wicked Prophet comes out to a mixed reaction from the crowd dressed in his stripes outfit.  Prophet may not be well liked but can be counted on to call it right down the middle.  Next, GM Master Bull comes out to a nice pop from the crowd.  He makes his way right to the ring and gets in.  The music changes and out comes the World Champion the Banker and his manager Ruth Heartless.  The lights go out except for a single spotlight on the World Champion.  He hands Ruth his title and begins his walk to the ring.  The fans are booing the crap out of him.   He gets into the ring and stands nose to nose with Bull.  The bell rings and the two begin slugging it out.

It looks like things are about to get crazy so stay tuned.
