HCW Wrestling Newsletter 2019 #819 – Zero Hour PPV Day 3 (12/15)


Hello fans and welcome back to the HCW Wrestling Newsletter.  Today is Day 3 and the final day of our PPV Zero Hour.  The last two days have totally off the hook.  A recap of yesterday’s show reveals:


·       The team of Maximillian Redbeard, Superquake Ferguson and Killa Pops defeated Wilber Townsend, Anthony Boom and Leon Teremoto to become the new 6 Man Tag Team Champions.  Leon and Anthony end up turning on Wilber to become fan favorites again.

·       Outback Oscar defeated the returning Madman Mason to retain the Hardcore title however Mason took his frustrations out on Oscar after the match and put the champ into the hospital for an unknown period of time.

·       In a grudge match against the 5th Column, Davis Hoffmeister, El Chango and Leon Teremoto were victorious after El Chango scored the win for the team.  The fans popped huge as a version of the Desperados were reformed for one night.

·       Apollo Gyze defeated Jack Lawson to retain the US title however he was surprised by a returning ‘Ragin Cajun’ Rad Gumbo.  Gumbo drank beer with the fans.

·       Ladies Champion Sassy Maxine DeVito defeated Catalina Harper by “submission” however it appeared the fix was in with the referee.  Management will be reviewing the tape and take the appropriate action.


On the card today, we finish our PPV with the following matches:

Drew the CLM, Magnum Kone & a mysterious teammate vs the Snake Pit

TV Champion The Banker vs TBD

·       Scooter J vs Dr. Red Fang in an ECW Rules Match

·       Anytime/Anywhere Champion Biceps Bannerman vs Col Flagg

·       World Champion the Wicked Prophet vs Texas Wildfire. 


Pyro goes off and the fans pop huge.  GM Max McGillicutty comes out accompanied by GM Master Bull.  The two go on to talk about the show today and state that everyone will be getting well deserved rest and relaxation with plenty of time to heal from nagging injuries.  Bull says that even though their home in Phoenix is gone, the shows will continue; just up in the PNW.  Max says HCW will be on tour throughout 2020 but more importantly, we are going down to one show a week with a “Saturday Night’s Main Event” style show taking place once a month.  The fans seemed to be fine with the announcement.  Bull and Max then leave to let the show get started. 


The show begins with a video playing on the Omegatron: We open in an operating room. Several Doctors and nurses are working on a male patient.  The soap opera music can be heard. The camera floats up to an observation window and glides through. Inside. Handsome young Dr. R. Fang is watching the operation, a nurse is at his side. "I should be down there." He says with melodramatic words. The music changes to match. "But Doctor,” the nurse says, turning handsome young Dr. Fang to face her. "Your skills are needed elsewhere.”  Handsome young Dr. Fang adopts a heroic pose, “You are right nurse; so many people need my help." He then sweeps past her, heading for the exit. The nurse looks after his retreating form and whispers, "Vampire Lunges for everyone."


Well, it seems that Scooter J can’t stop taking pot shots at our resident vampire Dr. Red Fang.  The two cost each other their titles (Fang losing the Hardcore title and Scooter J losing the TV title) so there is much animosity between the two.


Pyro goes off once again and our show officially kicks off.  First, over the loudspeakers, we hear “Ah-ten-shun!  Get on your feet you maggots and celebrate a real hero”.  Col. Samuel Flagg walks out to massive booing from the crowd.  He flips them off not caring about who he offends.  He threatens to hit a few fans who were seriously mouthing off to him.  He kept walking and got into the ring.  Next, the music changes and out comes the new Anytime/Anywhere Champion Biceps Bannerman.  The crowd pops huge for Biceps.  He comes out and stands on the stage holding his title high.  As he begins to walk down to the ring, he is ambushed by some masked men wearing military fatigues.  The stomp and beat down on Bannerman.  Finally, they drag him to the ring and roll him in.  Flagg calls for the bell to ring.  He makes the cover and the ref counts 1..2…POWEROUT!  Biceps almost launched him out of the ring.  Bannerman gets to his feet and he’s pissed.  Flagg tries to run away but Bannerman catches him and begins to beat the living tar out of him.  Bannerman dominated for 5 minutes until Flagg, who appeared to load something into his boot, stomped Biceps in the head disorienting him.  He went for the quick pin but Biceps powered out. Flagg would get in a few shots but Bannerman fought back with a huge powerslam and even a Biceps Crunch but Flagg wouldn’t tap out.   Flagg tried to throw Biceps out of the ring but it was neutralized.  The ref missed Flagg hitting Biceps with a low blow but then Flagg tapped his boot on the mat and then kicked Bannerman in the head again.  He went for the pin and got the 3 count.  Col. Flagg won the match and just became the Anytime/Anywhere champion.  Flagg takes the belt and holds it high.  He sees Bannerman starting to stir so he takes his belt and runs to the back.  An enraged Bannerman, with a little blood trickling down his forehead, follows.  (15 min)


Drew the Canadian Love Machine is backstage with the King of Cones Magnum Kone.  Drew says that the cat may already be out of the bag but for those not in the know, this guy will be their partner in the upcoming match against the Snake Pit.  In walks Anthony Boom.  Boom says that whatever spell Wilber had him under is gone and he’s his own man now.  Tonight, he helps right some wrongs and the Snake Pit will learn the hard way not to mess with them.


Our next match begins with the Snake Pit (Leiton, Tobias and Niven Snake) coming out to boos from the crowd.  They stand on the stage and do a fist bump before heading down to the ring.  They enter the ring and begin to verbally antagonize the fans.   The music changes and out comes the team of Anthony Boom, Magnum Kone and Drew the Canadian Love Machine.  They high five a few fans but are laser focused.  Leiton leans over the ropes motioning from them to get in the ring.  Drew and his team oblige and a slobber knocker ensues.  The ref finally regains control and then officially starts the match.  The two teams battle for a solid 9 minutes and are practically even.  A quick double team by Drew and Leon gave their team the advantage.  We join the match at the 13 minute mark.

Drew, Leon and Anthony get the win and the fans practically blow the roof off the place.  They stand united in the ring while the Snake Pit slither to the back.   They interact with the fans for a few moments before heading to the back on their own.


We head to the back where the Ambassador and Dr. Red Fang are stewing.  The Ambassador says “Scooter J, you think you’re a funny guy.  Well Mr. Comedian,  once Fang is done with you, you won’t be laughing anymore.”  The camera closes in on Fang and we hear him mumble “Vampire Lunges for you Scooter J.”


We are back at the ring for more action.  First, the TV Champion the Banker comes out with his manager Ruth Heartless.  Ruth was single handedly responsible for the demise of the Phoenix Heat brand (she allowed the contract on their location to expire).  They are booed as they head to the ring.  The Banker hands Ruth his briefcase and the TV title before speaking into the mic.  “Shut your faces and quit your whining.  You don’t speak to my manager that way.  Keep it up and it will be a Tax Audit for each and every one of you.  Hey, backstage, why don’t you send my opponent out so we can get this moving?”  There is a brief lull until a returning Matches Malone makes his way out.  Malone was last seen after his scaffold match against Texas Wildfire.  He was injured and apparently has been cleared for action.  He comes down to the ring and gets in.  The Banker begins to laugh almost doubling over.  Ruth leaves the ring and tells the ring attendant to start the match.   The Banker hits Matches with a Credit Check chop but Malone bounces the Banker’s head off the turnbuckle.  The Banker then hurls Malone out of the ring.  Ruth sneaks up behind Malone and clobbers him with the briefcase denting it.  She rushes back to her side of the ring to avoid being seen by the ref.  The ref begins to count.  1…2…3…4…5…6…7…8…9…10.  The ref counts Malone down and out and awards the match to the Banker via countout in only 2 minutes.  The Banker gets on the mic and says that if Malone is any representation of the rest of the roster, then he will be World Champion again in no time.  He says that he was ready for a match and was disappointed by this one.  He says he’s open to anyone coming out.  Music hits almost immediately and out comes Drew the Canadian Love Machine.  The Banker is speechless.  Drew rushes down to the ring and climbs in saying he’ll take the Banker on.  


Drew hits the La Casita and tries to follow it up with an arm drag takedown but the Banker nullifies it.  As the Banker distracts the ref, Ruth hits Drew in the ribs with the briefcase.  The Banker hits a Repossession Rib Buster and goes for the pin but Drew kicks out.  Drew hits an armdrag takedown but the Banker holds on to Drew’s arm and locks in the ATM Fee Armbar.  Drew is trapped in the middle of the ring and the Banker starts to cinch back adding more pressure to Drew’s midsection where he got hit by the briefcase.  Drew tries to make it to the ropes but he is too far away and ends up tapping out.  The Banker gets the win and holds his title in front of Drew’s face.  Drew gets to his feet and grabs the Banker by the throat.  Ruth sneaks in from behind and tries to hit Drew again but the Canadian Love Machine turns just as Ruth is swinging the briefcase and she hits the Banker by mistake.  Ruth drops the briefcase as Drew chases her out of the ring.  The Banker also rolled out of the ring.  Drew grabs the briefcase and opens it up revealing lots of cash.  Drew starts to grab wads of cash and throws it to the fans.  Ruth rushes back in and grabs the case from Drew and hightails it to the back with dollars floating out of the open case.  Drew celebrates with the fans before heading to the back.  (4 min for the match; 5 for the aftermath)


We cut to Scooter J and TNT backstage and they are re-watching the “Dr. R Fang videos”.  Scooter J tells TNT that he’s going to bury that vampire and they won’t have to have his demented presence plaguing them anymore.  After he’s done with Fang, he will turn his attention back to some title.  He puts every champion on notice that no one’s belt is safe.  TNT then adds “Not even the Ladies title” and laughs.  Scooter J looks at him quizzically.  “I think I’ll pass on that one”.  They then walk off.


We head back to the ring for the next match.  The loudspeakers blares with “VAMPIRE LUNGES FOR EVERYBODY” and out comes the evil diabolical Dr. Red Fang.  Fang is accompanied to the ring by his manager the Ambassador. The duo are booed as they head down to the ring.  Once in the ring, the music changes and out comes Scooter J and TNT.  They too are equally booed by the crowd but SJ saunters down to the ring.  TNT walks over and begins to have words with the Ambassador.  The ref sends both TNT and the Ambassador to the back to avoid any interference even though this is a no –DQ match.  The ref says that the rules for this one are ECW Rules.  The bell rings and this one begins outside the ring.  Scooter J beings by eye raking Fang but Fang bounces SJ’s head on the ringside barrier.  Fang follows it up with a Skull Crusher and then rolls Scooter J back into the ring.  Scooter J catches Fang with a Superkick and a quick pin but Fang kicks out at 1.   Scooter J tries for a belly to belly suplex but Fang reverses it and applies a spider web lock.  He goes for a pin but only gets a 2 count.   Scooter J drops Fang with a clothesline.   Scooter J hits a belly to belly suplex but Fang hits him with a Vampire Lunge.  Fang goes for the pin but SJ kicks out at 2.  Fang can’t believe it.  Scooter J nails the 10 punches and goes for the pin but Fang kicks out.  SJ can’t believe it.  Fang nails an airplane spin and SJ is woozy on his feet.  Fang hits the Skull Crusher again and rolls up Scooter J with a handful of tights and his feet on the ropes to get the 1-2-3.  Dr. Red Fang gets the win and the fans boo.  Scooter J exits the ring and grabs a steel chair and re-enters the ring blasting Fang in the head with it.  Fang is unfazed.  Scooter J hits him a second time and Fang shakes it off.  Scooter J kicks Fang in the gut, drops the chair and then nails a DDT on the chair.  Fang is out.  Scooter J stands up laughing.  He climbs the turnbuckle showing off but a collective “OHHH” from the crowd makes SJ turn around.  He sees Fang get to his feet, sees the chair and then looks at Scooter J.  SJ visibly gulps and then exits the ring with Fang in high pursuit.  (9 min for the match; 3 for the aftermath)


Backstage, Texas Wildfire is with Larry Morton.  TW tells Morton and the fans that he did something that he’d never done before.  He underestimated his opponent.  Now, this time, he is ready.  The World Title has been misrepresented ever since The Wicked Prophet became the champion but tonight, he rights a wrong.  Tonight, he takes the World title and brings honor back to the belt.  He then walks off.


Also backstage is World Champion The Wicked Prophet and he is with Clarkus Kentus.  Prophet addresses the fans and says that Wildfire is delusional.  Ever since Wildfire lost the title, he’s been moping around crying into his soup.  Tonight will be no different.  Tonight, he solidifies himself as one of the greatest Champions ever by defeating Wildfire for the 3rd time.  Tonight, the “real” champion walks out.  Prophet walks off.


We are treated to one final video.  It cuts to an offsite venue…it looks like an Applebees.  The cameraman enters and we see, sitting at the bar, someone we haven’t seen in HCW in quite some time.  It’s Phat Sol!  Phat appears to be depressed and is drowning his sorrows with drink.  Apparently, he has a crush on the Goth hostess but she continues to ignore his advances.  He stumbles outside and in his drunken stupor, he passes out in the dumpster behind the Applebees.  He awakens moments later, comes to his senses and heads to the gym right around the corner.  He walks in and says “I’m ready for training.”  He walks over to where others are getting ready for a workout.  The cameraman leaves.  I wonder if this means Phat is making a comeback in 2020…I guess we’ll see what happens next year.


It is time for our main event.  First, Texas Wildfire comes out to a HUGE pop from the crowd.  He comes out and high fives the fans and makes his way to the ring.  He gets in and climbs the turnbuckle to an even louder pop.  He steps down and stands in the center of the ring waiting for his opponent.  The music changes and out comes the World Champion the Wicked Prophet.  He is booed and fans begin a “Wicket” chant at him.  He ignores them all and walks down to the ring exuding confidence.  He climbs in the ring and walks past Wildfire.  He climbs each of the four corner turnbuckles in turn holding his hands high with the title strapped across his waist.  He finally climbs down for the last time and stands face to face with Wildfire in the center of the ring.  He hands the title to the ref and the bell rings to start this one off.

The Wicked Prophet steals a win via count out and retains the title.  He exits the ring holding his title high.  He makes his way to the stage and stands tall holding the title high as the show comes to an end but he is greeted by Killa Pops.  The two stand and stare at each other as the cameras stop rolling.


Thanks for reading.  HCW will return in January.  Until then, happy holidays and enjoy the season of perpetual giving (or retaining where it applies to the champions still in possession of their titles).


Merry Christimas to one and all.
