Hello
fans and welcome back to the latest installment of HCW’s Tacoma Thunder. The House of Horrors PPV is only a couple of
days away. At the end of the show, we
will recap the matches that will be taking place at the PPV on 10/30 – one day
before Halloween; although it may be just as scary. Every match will be some sort of specialty
match and we will recap all those at the end of today’s show
The
show begins with Catalina Harper and the Anytime/Anywhere champion Sassy Maxine
DeVito chatting. Catalina begs to be part of the triple threat match and says
she is instrumental in ensuring that Maxine not only becomes the Ladies
Champion but protects the AA title from schmucks who may want to try to steal
it for themselves. Maxine says she likes
the idea but she is not the decision maker.
Maxine suggests they go talk to GM Max McGillicutty.
Pyro
goes off and our first match of the night is ready to begin. First, Outback Oscar makes his way out
first. Oscar surprisingly hasn’t been on
TV much as of late so the fans welcome him with thunderous applause. Oscar interacts with the fans as he makes his
way down to the ring. Once in the ring,
the music changes and out comes Nix Anderson. Nix comes out strutting all cocky
which elicited some booing from the fans.
He gets into the ring and gets ready for action. The match is quick paced and the two stayed
even throughout the entire match.
Neither could get an advantage over the other. 20 minutes later, the bell rings bringing
this one to a draw finish. The two men
stare at each other before shaking hands.
Oscar is the first to leave. He
begins his trek to the back. Nix goes to
leave but he is ambushed by Dr. Red Fang.
Fang gets in one shot and then runs off.
Nix gives chase. (20 min time
limit draw)
We
head to the back and we’re with Killa Pops.
The interviewer asks Killa if he’s ready for his match against Apollo
and Killa says that with all the crap that Apollo has put him through, he won’t
be apologizing for anything that will happen in the ring. Killa smiles and heads towards the ring.
The
next match begins with Superstar Chic Monroe making his way out to the ring. He receives a mixed reaction from the
crowd. Next, we hear “Killa Pops is in
da hoooooooooouse” and Pops makes his way out to a pop from the crowd. He makes his way down and into the ring. This one also starts pretty quickly. Chic hits a straight jacket suplex and goes
for a quick pin but Killa kicks out easily.
A few minutes later, Pops wrenches in a headlock but Chic stuns him with
a swiss uppercut and then trips him out of the ring. Out of nowhere, Apollo Gyze comes out and
distracts Pops. Killa rolls right back
in but Chic rolls him up (and with a handful of tights), he gets the
1-2-3. Apollo cost Killa the match. Apollo rushes in the ring and knocks Killa to
the floor. Apollo picks Killa up and
powerslams him through a table destroying it in the process. Apollo stands over him and says “I’ll see you
at the PPV, punk.” Apollo walks
off. Medics come out to check on Killa
but he’s already up. Killa shakes his
head and promises Apollo will pay…in spades. (7
min for the match; 5 for the aftermath)
Back
in the office of the GM, Anytime/Anywhere Champion ‘Sassy’ Maxine DeVito and
Catalina Harper plead their case to Max.
Max tells them that he can’t see a reason to add Catalina to the event
but Ms. Harper makes it well known that she defeated Kimberly Kiccsass down in
Phoenix and did it pretty solidly. Max
agrees saying he watched the match. Max
eventually decides to make the Ladies title match a Fatal Four Way. Maxine and Catalina smile, thank the GM and
then leave.
We head back to
the ring and our next match is already begun.
Lavender Gooms vs Leslie Grimes is going on now. This match had a lot more action and was much
faster paced. 3 minutes in, Lavender
locked in the Lavender lock but Leslie made it to the ropes to break the hold. Leslie battled back hitting a spectacular
moonsault from the top rope which got a big pop from the fans. The two traded reversals and nullified each
other’s moves continuously. Leslie gets
a near fall after hitting Lavender with a DDT. Lavender stunned Leslie with
some running leg drops. Lavender then
called for the Lavender lock but before she could apply it, Leslie dropped her
with another DDT. Leslie made the cover
hooking the leg and got the 3 count.
Leslie Grimes gets the win and the fans give both ladies a nice pop. (10 min)
Davis
Hoffmeister arrives to a pop from the crowd.
Davis says he’s got a match tonight and promises Master Bull he will
have his back.
Sarona
Reiher is backstage and says that the triple threat match, and now Fatal Four
Way for the Ladies Championship, has totally overshadowed her. She says she’s been the #1 contender longer
than Violet, Maxine or Catalina and says that ends tonight. She says she is demanding her title tonight
and if Hayley is a real champion, she will accept.
We
go back to the ring for more action.
First, we hear blaring over the loudspeakers “VAMPIRE LUNGES FOR
EVERYONE” and out comes Dr. Red Fang accompanied by his manager the
Ambassador. The Ambassador states that
Fang wants one more warm up match before the PPV and he issues a challenge to
any wannabe looking to make a name for themselves to come out and challenge
Fang in this NON-TITLE match (he makes sure everyone knows the belt is not on
the line). We wait patiently until we hear
“TIMMMMMBER” and out comes the plaid wearing lumberjack Jack Lumber. The fans pop for him. Jack makes a brief stop at the Lumber Lounge
(his fan club) and then heads to the ring.
Lumber gets on the mic and says he’s up to a warm up match as he gets
the Axe in a couple of days. The Ambassador
directs Fang to attack Lumber and the two begin to brawl. A few minutes in, the Axe comes out and
attacks Jack when he was on the outside of the ring. The Ambassador distracted the ref allowing
Axe to hit Jack with a spear crashing into the ring steps. Axe throws Jack back in and sits back. Jack struggles to his feet and Fang picks
him up delivering an airplane spin. He
drops Jack to the mat and makes the cover getting the 1-2-3. Dr. Red Fang gets the win and the fans
boo. Nix Anderson comes out and goes
after Fang and the two brawl all the way to the back. In the ring, Axe picks up Jack and goes to
deliver the Axe but Jack ducks and hits Axe with a spear. Jack starts to “hulk up” and motions like
he’s going to deliver an Axe of his own but Axe bails. He starts to leave but Jack rushes out of the
ring and the two fight all the way to the back.
(13 min)
Ladies
Champion Hayley Hailstone says she was planning for a triple threat match and
now all that is out the window with Catalina being inserted in the title
picture. Regardless, she will walk out
with the title intact. However, tonight,
Sarona has been bitching loud enough and she says she has heard her. Tonight, she will put the title on the line
and promises Sarona will wish she waited for a little less pissed off Champion
to make her challenge.
We
go right into the next match. First,
Wendell Hammerschmidt comes out to booing from the crowd. He reciprocates back to the fans. He gets in the ring and continues his
jawjacking. The music changes and the
fans explode as Davis ‘the Hoff’ Hoffmeister comes out. He interacts with the fans and makes his way
to the ring. Wendell kicks at the ropes
trying to discourage Davis from entering.
Finally, the ref pushes Wendell away so that Davis can enter. He gets in the ring and Wendell comes right
after him. Davis hits him with a
clothesline and Wendell hits a tiger suplex.
Davis pushes Wendell to the corner and Wendell complains that Davis was
choking him. Wendell with an eye poke
and hits the British airways. Wendell
follows it up with a german suplex.
Davis keeps Wendell on the mat and locks him up with the Hollywood
(camel) clutch. Wendell is trapped and
taps out. Davis gets the win via
submission and the fans pop huge. Davis
has his arm raised and then leaves before Wendell could retaliate. Wendell yells at the ref but eventually
leaves. (5 min)

It
is time for our main event. First,
Sarona Reiher makes her way out first to booing from the crowd. She flips them off and continues to the ring. The music changes and the fans pop as the
Ladies Champion Hayley Hailstone makes her way out. She makes a beeline for the ring and slides
under the bottom rope. Sarona bolts out
of the ring trying to draw the start of the match out. Finally after some taunting from Hayley,
Sarona gets in the ring and the match begins.
The Ladies Champion dominated the match but Sarona kept kicking out of
pin attempts which continued to frustrate the champ. Finally, the match reached a 30 minute time
limit and the match was ended on a draw finish.
Sarona, realizing she had her ass handed to her, took off. Hayley stayed in the ring to celebrate but
the celebration was cut short when Catalina Harper and ‘Sassy’ Maxine DeVito
came out and attacked Hayley. Violet
Valkyrie then came out to even the odds.
The four brawled until Violet tried to whip Maxine to the ropes but it
was reversed and Violet ended up crashing into Hayley. There was a bit of tension between the two
but it settled down pretty quick. The
show came to an end with the 4 staring at each other.
The
PPV is up next. Stay tuned.
