Hello fans and
welcome to a remote airing of an HCW show.
Tonight, as we prepare for tomorrow’s PPV Reign of Champions, Olympia
welcomes the HCW roster and its fans from all over. With special thanks to the city of Olympia,
we were able to get one last card in before the PPV airs. We are proud to bring you the first ever
edition of “Saturday Night Showdown”.
We begin backstage
and Tommy Lightning is mouthing off as usual and he turns around only to run
into the behemoth that is the Big Cocoon.
Cocoon stares down at Tommy and says “Little Tommy has a big mouth. You’d better watch it.” Cocoon walks away. Tommy stands there all bug eyed.
Pyro goes off and
our show is ready to get underway. Our
first match begins with the ear piercing squeal of “Ice Dagger Baby” and ID
makes his way out to major booing from the crowd. He gets in the ring and continues to taunt the
fans. The music stops and is replaced by
the chime of a bell and out comes the King of Cones Magnum Kone. Magnum hands out a LOT of ice cream to the
fans at ringside (it takes almost 5 full minutes). Finally, he enters the ring. He removes his jacket and hat and the bell
rings. The two were about even in
trading blows and controlling the tempo of the match. Lots of high spots and near falls took place
but 15 minutes in, Magnum started to dominate and owned the match. At the 16 minute mark, Magnum hits the
Popsicle and goes for the pin and it seemed he got the three count but the ref
noticed, as his hand hit the mat for the 3rd time, that Dagger’s
foot was on the ropes so he directed the match to continue. A couple of minutes later, Dagger trapped
Magnum in the Yukon cloverleaf but Magnum powered out and made it to the safety
of the ropes. At the 20 minute mark,
Magnum hit the Bomb Pop but delayed in going for the pin so Dagger was able to
kick out. While Magnum chatted with the
ref, ID hit a low blow from behind (the ref of course did not see it) and
Dagger followed it up with the Ice Breaker.
He made the cover hooking the leg and putting his feet on the ropes for
leverage and got the 1-2-3. Ice Dagger
steals a win much to the dismay of the crowd.
Dagger left the ring and swaggered up the ramp mocking the fans all the
way. Magnum stayed to interact with them
for a few moments before leaving. (21
min)
The Banker is
backstage and says that the wheels are in motion and his plans are finally
coming to fruition. “Only one thing
remains in my way…Davis Hoffmeister. You
are like a bad penny; always turning up where you’re not wanted. One match; a three count and I can move
beyond you. The world title awaits my
return and it will be a relief once you are out of my hair.”
We head back to
the ring for our next match. First, over
the loudspeakers blares “Killa Pops is in da houuuuuuse” and out comes
Pops. The fans pop for him as he makes
his way down to the ring. He shakes
hands with fans at ringside and enters the ring. His music is abruptly cut off when Tommy
Lightning comes out to massive booing from the crowd. Tommy sneers at the fans and heads to the
ring. Tommy gets in the ring and
immediately slaps Pops across the face.
The match begins and it’s safe to say Tommy got in very little offense
after that as Pops opened an ultra-large can of whoop-ass on him. At the 7, 11 and 15 min marks, Killa hit the
Pimp Drop but Tommy kicked out all three times.
Killa took a step back and
contemplated his options. It appeared a
light bulb went off in his head and he hit Tommy with two consecutive spinning
side slams. That did it. Killa makes the cover and gets the 3
count. Killa Pops gets the win but his
celebration is cut short when Apollo Gyze and the Big Cocoon came out and
attacked him beating him down. After
they seem satisfied with the havoc they raised, they left. Killa was helped to the back. (17 min for the match; 5 for the aftermath)
The camera pans to
outside and a limo pulls up. ‘The Ragin
Cajun’ Rad Gumbo exits the limo and heads inside. The fans pop.
Next on our lineup
is a rematch between ‘Sassy’ Maxine DeVito and Kimberly Kiccsass. Kimberly was demoted out of the top 10 and
she feels she’s been given a raw deal and her match tonight expects to see her pushed
back to the #1 contender spot and Maxine can start over from scratch. First, Kimberly comes out to booing from the
crowd. She makes her way down and into
the ring. A moment later, Maxine’s music
hits and she comes out to an unexpected pop from the crowd. Maxine appears to have a following here. She gets in the ring and the match starts
immediately. Maxine was prepared for
Kimberly and managed to control the pace of the match. Kimberly did manage to hit the Christo but
Maxine was at the ropes and got her foot on it at the last possible
second. A few minutes later and back in
control, Maxine locks in the bodyscissors dragon sleeper but Kimberly managed
to escape. After Kimberly hit a Toronto
slam, she got hurled out of the ring by Maxine.
Kimberly made it back in by the count of 7. At the
14 minute mark, Kimberly went to the top rope and hit a leg drop. She did not automatically go for the pin but
took her time. By the time she attempted
to, Maxine ended up rolling her up and with a handful of tights, she got the 3
count. Maxine gets the win and maintains
her spot in the top 10. Kimberly is
pissed and storms off.
We cut to the
backstage area again and we see the US Champion the Wicked Prophet. As he enters the door to the arena, he is
blindsided by Otto Ruthless who knocked him into some lockers before running
off laughing. Prophet got to his feet
warding off any attempts for help and was stewing.
Next up, we have a
street fight. First, over the
loudspeakers blares “Timmmmmmmmber” and out comes the plaid-wearing lumberjack
Jack Lumber. Jack Lumber enters the arena and takes his sweet time to get into the
ring, stopping along the way to shake every outstretched hand and signing
autographs on all the brand new flannels that the fans are wearing in the
“Lumber Lounge.” (Section of group tickets purchased by Jack Lumber Superfans).
As Lumber makes his way to the ring,
his newest graphic shows up on the Omegatron:
Once in the ring, Jack begins to speak: “Since I was granted the incredible opportunity to be a part of the HCW’s Tacoma Thunder series, I have been nothing but impressed with the organization, fans, and sportsmanship from everyone I’ve met…. Aside from one person who just seems to whine and complain every chance he gets. This ring is a chopping block tonight and instead of the Axe doing the damage, the Axe is getting chopped. There’s only room in this organization for one axe-wielding heartthrob and we all know Jack Lumber is the man for the job. (Points to Lumber Lounge) so rip off your sleeves and get ready to yell timber, because its time to (fans join chant) CHOP! HIM! DOWN!” The music changes and out comes the Axe and he is storming down to the ring. Once there, he and Lumber began to throw down.

with the Axe dropping Jack to the mat. Axe
hits the Axe on Jack three times and sneers at him before walking off. Jack tries to shake off the cobwebs and makes
his way to the back to a standing ovation from the crowd.
Backstage, El
Chango is getting ready for his match.
He is asked if he’s prepared for the blatant disregard of the rules that
Col. Flagg is going to exhibit. El
Chango says that this is why he wanted this kind of match; to be able to beat
Flagg at his own game. Tonight, he will
do just that.
The bell rings
signaling the start of the next match.
First, Col. Samuel Flagg comes out to booing from the crowd. He swipes a few signs from fans and tears
them up. He laughs as he throws the
pieces into the crowd. Next, El Chango
comes out to a pretty loud pop from the crowd.
He stops and takes a selfie with one of the fans who had their sign torn
up. He has a determined look on his face
and heads to the ring. He rushes in only
for Flagg to exit the other side. This
went on for a few minutes before the ref got tired of the shenanigans and
orders the match to begin. The match
remained pretty even through the first 10 minutes of the match but after that,
El Chango took off and dominated. Flagg
tried to walk away but this is a no DQ/countout match so he can’t go
anywhere. After refusing to return to
the ring, El Chango went after him beating him up and down the ramp and on the
stage. Col. Flagg got in a short arm
clothesline and then began gloating. El
Chango got to his feet and hit a wicked clothesline on Flagg that was so
powerful, one of Flagg’s boots went flying off.
El Chango made the cover (they are on the stage) and got the 1-2-3. El Chango is victorious. The fans pop huge. El Chango helps Flagg to his feet and then
give him a swift kick in the ass sending him flying behind the curtain. El Chango soaked in the adulation for a
moment before leaving himself. (17 min)
Davis Hoffmeister
is backstage and is asked about the comments the Banker made. Davis says he knows he is the better man and
he will be making his way back to title contention. Davis says he is not putting anything past
the Banker as he is a devious man but makes sure we all know that Davis knows
how to also play dirty and this will not be a wrestling match but will be an
all-out brawl.
Also backstage is
Jack Lumber. He has an ice pack on his
head. “Axe, you are a coward and a cheat. You couldn’t stand being beaten so the next
time we meet, your sacrifice will not be in vain. Just as I have done for my
other enemies, a tree will be planted in your (Axe’s) name to represent the
legacy of your failure. Your literal and figurative sweat and tears will be
used to water that tree for years to come.”
Side note:
Entrance to the Lumber Lounge
$20 or
$15 if you wear a flannel or
$10 if you bring a friend AND wear a flannel
We head back to
the ring for the main event which is a falls count anywhere match. First, the Banker comes out to massive booing
from the crowd. He flips the fans off as
he makes his way down to the ring.
Next, Davis’ music hits and ‘the Hoff’ makes his way out to what may
well be the loudest pop of the night. He
heads to the ring ready for action. The
two began throwing lefts and rights as soon as the bell rang and that went on
for an astonishing 20 minutes. After
that, Davis got in some near fall pin attempts and took control of the
match. This one looked like it was going
to end in a time limit draw once we hit the 29 minute mark. The Banker, out of desperation, dropped Davis
with a DDT but was unable to capitalize on it.
Davis got to his feet first, picked up the Banker and hit a
piledriver. Davis, exhausted, makes the
cover and the ref counted 1…2…3. Davis
gets the win and the fans explode. The
Banker makes his way, defeated, to the back and Davis celebrates with the fans
briefly before making his way back also.
(29 min)
There is a brief
lull until we hear blaring “Gumbo 7:30 means its suppa time, bitch” and out
comes the Ragin Cajun. He remains on the
stage. Gumbo has a mic and says that he
was hanging out in the crowd all night and he got (with the fans permission)
the three best signs he saw.
“Look at that Gut” (referring to the
Iron Sheik’s physique)
“6:30
says it’s time for the gym” (Sheik needs to do some situps)
“Singalong
with the Sheik” in a big circle with a diagonal line running through it
(meaning it’s not time)
Rad and the fans
get a good laugh but it comes to a screeching halt when the Iron Sheik comes
out and attacks Rad with a steel chair.
After a good couple of smacks across the back, Sheik tapped the top of
his boot on the stage. While Rad was
doubled over, Sheik ran over and kicked Rad in the head sending him flying off
the stage through a table below. “HOLY
SHIT” chants rang out as medics all ran out to check on Gumbo. Sheik stood on the stage laughing. He picked up the mic. “I just broke you and now, you’re humble.
Come back from that Gumbo Cajun.” Sheik
drops the mic and the fans let him have it.
He stood there soaking in the hatred from the fans as Rad is loaded onto
a stretcher and taken to the back. With
that, the show comes to an end.
It now seems that
the match between Rad Gumbo and the Iron Sheik tomorrow is in serious
jeopardy. The PPV is tomorrow so we will
have to see how things turn out. Stay
tuned.
Tomorrow’s card is
