Hello fans and welcome to another installment of the HCW Wrestling Newsletter. Getting right to business, Steel City Wrestling Commissioner Shane Douglas sent HCW GM Max McGillicutty a pre-taped video statement and asked for it to be played at the beginning of the show. The video begins up on the Omegatron.
Commissioner
Douglas comes to the ring with his stooge, Virgil.
With Virgil
holding it for him, Douglas reads the (previously sent) statement from TL
Promotions Management…having to chastise Virgil several times to "hold it still", and eventually
just tearing it from his hand, "gimme the damn thing".
After
finishing:
“That’s what
the empty suits say! (TEARS UP OFFICIAL
STATEMENT)
Here’s my
statement!
In 1994 I threw
a belt in the trash to be an innovator. Last week, you threw a belt in the
trash to be a cliché. I was
extreme. You’re a freak. I started a
revolution. You’re just starting to piss me off. So you better invoke whatever god, demon, or
goat you count as your maker. You better
pray to never set foot in SCW again.
Because if Legal doesn't terminate your contract, I’m going to Franchise
your ass! And that’s not a threat…”
PAUSE
Douglas Points
to locker room, “ONE” Elias emerges on the ramp holding up Triple Threat hand
sign
“TWO” Lee
Moriarty emerges on the ramp holding up Triple Threat sign.
Virgil steps
forward holding up sign
“NOT YOU
VIRGIL! No one wanted to watch you wrestle in 1988”.
Douglas turns
to the announce table…”And THREE” Points to Sam Adonis, Sullivan’s archrival,
holding up Triple Threat hand sign).
It’s a Triple
Threat!”
As
soon as the video ends, pyro goes off to kick off the show but before the first
match could begin, the Hardcore Champion Tommy ‘the Morningstar’ Sullivan comes
out and the fans boo. It appears he want
to respond to both TL Promotions management and to Steel City Wrestling Commissioner
Douglas.
The HCW arena buzzed with a mix of curiosity and
apprehension as Tommy 'the Morningstar' Sullivan entering confidently into the
ring. The atmosphere crackled with uncertainty as he seized the microphone,
casting a knowing glance around the venue.
"So, Shane Douglas, you thought sending me a little
taped message would ruffle my feathers?" Sullivan chuckled dismissively,
his eyes narrowing with disdain. "You and your sidekick Virgil stumbling
over TL Promotions Management's statement like its rocket science. I've seen
more coherent performances in a kindergarten play."
He paced the ring, the crowd's murmurs fueling his
swagger. "You tore up their 'official statement'? That's what the suits
say, huh? Well, congratulations on your rebellious moment, Shane. You want to
remind everyone you threw a title in the trash to be an innovator 30 years ago.
Now, you are just a sad parody of what once was."
Sullivan locked eyes with the camera, his tone dripping
with mockery. "You want to talk about gods, demons, and goats, Shane? Let
me be clear. You don't scare me. You don't even register on my radar. If Steel
City Wrestling won't show you the exit, I'll personally escort you out of the
wrestling world. Franchise my sorry behind? Please, I'll hand you yours just
for the sheer joy of it."
The crowd's reaction swirled with a mix of amusement and
intrigue. "And as for your Triple Threat nonsense – Elias, Moriarty, Adonis – you can line up all
you want. But this is my yard," he declared, pointing emphatically to the
HCW logo. "I don't care if SCW and HCW aren't cozy bedfellows. I don't
need an agreement to make a statement."
Sullivan grinned devilishly. "So here's a
challenge. Anybody from Steel City Wrestling, or anyone Douglas sends, can come
to MY yard. I'll be waiting, and I'll show them what real chaos looks like. You
think you're a revolutionary, Shane? Step into my world, and I'll redefine what
it means to be extreme. And to TL
Promotions, you want to strip me of a title that I defended and held for 4
years? You can all go to hell. Or better yet, send your champion over and
I’ll take MY title back."
With that, Sullivan tossed the microphone aside, leaving
the audience buzzing with anticipation for the potential chaos that awaited in
the unpredictable realm of HCW.
