Hello wrestling fans and welcome back to another installment of the HCW Wrestling Newsletter. First things first, we want to address the fallout from last weekend’s Warzone PPV.
As
he was not able to defeat the Wicked Prophet, Starbuck Steel has officially
ended his in-ring career. A very
bittersweet ending to a fantastic career.
The
Morningstar Tommy Sullivan’s team (including Azrael and Dr. Red Fang) defeated SCW’s
Triple Threat after Elias was pinned.
Sam Adonis and Lee Moriarty were taken out before the match began so it
was really all on Elias and the numbers just proved too great to overcome.
Luciana
Albano was the last person standing after the Wargames match getting the win
for her team. After the match, she was
attacked by Korbi Kong and was issued a challenge for the title. Luciana accepted and we will see the two of
them face off at Critical Mass.
Mr.
X is the new Hardcore champion having defeated OP Cunningham. Being a title holder now should prevent him
from getting bumped from shows but who knows….
Evan
Stockwell defeated the Banker to retain the TV title. Evan’s run as TV Champion has just begun and
with Ruth Heartless by his side, he is slated for greatness.
The
Alaskan Wildman Jax Brenner put the threat of Madman Mason to rest. He now wants to look to a title shot. He doesn’t care who…he’ll beat them up
regardless.
After
Wicked Prophet retained the title, on his way to the back, he stopped and
disrespected members in the Lumber Lounge.
Jack Lumber was there and tells Prophet he’s coming for him but first, issues
a challenge to Wilber Townsend for the US title next week.
Dennis
Marshall demands a rematch vs Apollo.
Apollo tried to blow him off but GM Max McGillicutty told Dennis he
would make the match happen. Apollo was
not thrilled with the news.
Tonight,
we introduce the newest member of the HCW roster…Zack ‘Commando’ Brown. He will be joining with Col. Flagg and ‘the
Bounty Hunter’ Jake Montrose to form a new team called “The Flaggship”.
In the heart of the wrestling world,
a new force emerged, embodying the perfect blend of discipline, strength, and
determination. Zack "Commando" Brown, a former elite member of the
Special Forces, stepped into the ring with a mission to conquer and dominate.
His journey from the battlefield to the squared circle was not just a
transition; it was a testament to his unwavering commitment to excellence.
Zack's story began on the front
lines of a covert military operation, where he earned his nickname
"Commando" due to his exceptional leadership skills and unparalleled
combat prowess. After years of serving his country with distinction, Zack faced
a difficult decision when a life-altering injury forced him into early
retirement from the military.
Driven by an unyielding spirit, Zack
refused to let adversity define him. He turned to professional wrestling, a
world where the battlefield shifted from war zones to the squared circle.
Zack's military background brought a unique intensity to his wrestling style,
combining strategic thinking with raw power. His presence alone commanded
respect, and his in-ring abilities left audiences in awe.
Enter Col. Sam Flagg, a cunning and
diabolical mastermind who recognized the potential of aligning with someone as
disciplined and fierce as Zack "Commando" Brown. Col. Flagg, with a
mysterious past of his own, saw in Zack the perfect weapon to carry out his
sinister plans within the wrestling world.
The unlikely alliance between Zack
and Col. Flagg created a formidable duo that struck fear into the hearts of
their opponents. Col. Flagg, with his strategic mind and conniving tactics,
orchestrated chaos outside the ring, while Zack enforced order inside it.
Together, along with Jake ‘the Bounty Hunter’ Montrose, they became a force to
be reckoned with, leaving a trail of defeated adversaries in their wake along
with dominance and calculated chaos.
Pyro
goes off and our show is ready to get underway.
Match #1: Zack Brown w/Col Flag vs Joe ‘Jack Hammer’

opponent. The music changes and out
comes “The Commando” Zack Brown. He is
accompanied to the ring by Col. Flagg.
The duo are booed as they head to the ring. Flagg flips off a bunch of fans but Zack
remains focused. He climbs into the ring

Zack
Brown gets the win in his debut match and some of the fans actually seem to
like him. That is, until Flagg started
to harass them and then they turned on him.
Flagg raised Zack’s arm in victory and then left to head to the back
(but Flagg still insisted on harassing the fans).
Match #2: Alejandro Guerrero vs Negropolis
Next
up, Negropolis comes out and is booed before he ever steps on stage. He flips the fans off and makes his way to
the ring with both middle fingers extended.
He gets in the ring and begins jaw jacking with a small group of fans. The music changes and the fans pop as
Alejandro Guerrero comes out. Quite the
opposite reaction that his opponent just received. He makes his way to the ring and shakes hands
with the fans. He climbs into the ring
only to be attacked before the bell by Negropolis. Lee rolls to the outside in an effort to
catch his breath and realized the ref was counting so he rolled back in just in
the nick of time. After that, it was all
Guerrero. Alejandro beat Negropolis from
pillar to post with Lee getting a couple of pin attempts in but Negropolis kept
kicking out. In the final moments of the
match, Lee asks the crowd if he should take a page from the late Eddie
Guerrero’s playbook and they give him a resounding approval. He takes Negropols to the corner and delivers
a bulldog, He then rolls him up (and in an homage to Eddie’s ‘cheating’), and
Lee hooks some of the tights to secure the 1-2-3. Alejandro gets the win and the fans
approve. He then heads to the back. (13 min)
Match #3: Steel Smashers vs Dominic Marconi & JR
Fargo
The
Magnificent One and the Italian Thoroughbred make their way out first to a loud
pop from the crowd. They shake hands
with the fans and get into the ring.
After a moment, the music changes and out comes the Steel Smashers. They are booed as they head to the ring. They climb in the ring and stand nose to nose
with their opponents. The bout begins
and it’s pretty evenly matched up. We
actually make it to the 18 minute mark before things go awry for our fan
favorites. At this point, the New
Sicilians came out and Dick and Vinnie stood on the stage smirking while the
fans booed. Juan Raul and Dominic tried
to concentrate on the match but with the constant looking over their shoulders,
it gave the Smashers control of the match.
At the 22 minute mark, Dominic was making a comeback and tagged JR
in. As soon as he stepped out of the
ring, the New Sicilians, who had made their way to commentary, smashed Dominic
with a steel chair taking him out of the match.
JR took his eyes off his opponent for a split second and that was all
Smasher #2 needed to hit a bodyslam on JR’s already sore back and rolled him up
for the 1-2-3. The Steel Smashers get
the win but leave almost immediately when Dick and Vinnie decided to get in the
ring. They stood over JR with a steel
chair in hand and were ready to inflict some damage until Alejandro came
running back down and got into the ring.
Vinnie swung the chair at Lee only for him to hit a dropkick against the
chair which backfired in Vinnie’s face.
The blow sent him out of the ring.
JR and Lee were set to go after Dick but he quickly exited the ring,
grabbed Vinnie and then headed to the back.
I’m sure this is not over between all them. (23 min for the match; 5 for
the aftermath)
The
Omegatron then lights up and declares that tonight, the first member of the
2024 Hall of Fame class would be announced RIGHT NOW! The lights go off and as soon as they came
back on, standing on the stage was…VIOLET VALKYRIE! Violet is the first member to be inducted into
this year’s class. She gets a standing
ovation and she is almost overcome with emotion. She heads the ring and with each step, the
pop gets louder and louder. She climbs
in the ring and by now, the fans’ response is almost deafening. She takes a mic but only waits a moment
giving the fans their time to thank her.
Once quiet enough, she begins to speak.
“Hey
HCW! Looks who’s back! Now, I’m not returning to the ring…at least
not in the way you might think. I may
not be able to actively compete anymore but I do have something left to
give. But first, thank YOU to all the
fans who have supported me as I accept the honor of being inducted into the
HOF. Secondly, as I said, I still have
some to give so with that said, I will be returning to HCW as a mentor to the
only and only, and my BFF, Korbi Kong!”
The fans pop at this announcement.
Violet continues. “Luciana Albano
is a menace who doesn’t care who she hurts along the way. I’m going to give Korbi all my knowledge to
help prepare her for when she gets her shot again at the Ladies Title. With all this said, my tutoring begins…now.”
“KORBI
KONG SMASH” blares through the loudspeakers and Korbi makes her way out. The fans pop as Korbi makes her way to the
ring and hugs her BFF. Korbi’s road to
the title begins here. The music changes
and out comes her opponent Felicia Cummings who is accompanied by her sister
Betsy. The twins are booed as they make
their way to the ring. Felicia mocks
Violet some before the match begins.
Match #4: Korbi Kong w/Violet vs Felicia Cummings
w/Betsy
Korbi
dominated early but then interference from Betsy caused things to go Felicia’s
way. Felicia managed to hold Korbi at
bay while Betsy continued to taunt Violet.
At the 14 minute mark, Felicia went for a sunset flip but Korbi dropped
down on her chest. She then went to the
corner and climbed to the top turnbuckle.
Betsy tried to jump on the apron to knock Korbi down but Violet pulled
her off the apron and Betsy fell to the floor.
Korbi then jumped delivered a Mile High Elbow drop and she covered
Felicia hooking the leg and getting the 1-2-3.
Korbi Kong gets the win and the fans pop huge for her. Korbi stands tall as Violet raises her arm as
the victor. The duo then head to the
back. The Cummings twins follow shortly
thereafter.
Match #5: The Main Event: Six Man Title Match: The Albano Family vs the Hubers
It’s
now time for our main event. First, the
Hubers (Junior, Butch, and Ferb) come out and get a sight reaction from the
crowd. Although both teams are heels,
the Albano’s are despised even more.
They enter the ring but don’t wait long until the music changes and out
comes the Six Man Tag Team Champions Aldo and Carlo Albano with Rigg A Mortis
and their manager Pierre Boulay who is carrying a portrait of Capt. Lou. The champs hit the ring and go right on the
offensive. 4 minutes in, the Hubers
target the enforcer Rigg and take him down and out of the match. This now gave the Hubers a 3 on 2 advantage
but it did little good. Aldo and Carlo
open major cans of whopp-ass on the Hubers and totally dominated until Carlo decided
to end the match hitting Junior with a bulldog and his feet on the ropes for a
1-2-3. The Albano’s get the win and by
this time, Rigg had recovered and joined the family in throwing the Hubers out
of the ring. The Albano’s stand tall as
the fans boo them.
The
show comes to an end with the Albano’s getting the loudest negative reaction
from the crowd all night. Pierre stood
center and held Capt. Lou’s portrait high.
More
to come…stay tuned.
