HCW Wrestling Newsletter 2024 #1053 –11/30


Hello wrestling fans and welcome back to another installment of the HCW Wrestling Newsletter.  We are less than 3 weeks away from our Zero Hour PPV and there are still a few tickets left to get in on the action live and in person.  On the card tonight, we will see the TV Champion the Banker defend his title against the man who’s become an additional thorn in his side, Million Dollar Alliance member Sterling Silverman.  We will also see the Heritage Women’s Champion defended in a fatal four way but Luciana must be pinned or submitted in order to lose the title. If Luciana is not pinned or submits, whoever gets the win will secure the title shot at the PPV.  The Dark Dominion will also be in action tonight.  The devious Mr. X (provided he doesn’t get bumped) will be in action tonight. 

 

Our show begins backstage in a dark, shadowy corner.  Count Vlad of the Dark Dominion receives a call.

 

Count Vlad stands in a shadowy corner, his face illuminated by the eerie glow of flickering candles. The phone rings, and Vlad answers it with a sinister smile.

 

Count Vlad: “Speak.”

 

Mystery Caller: nervously “Vlad, it’s me. Ruth Heartless may have made a deal with Max McGillicutty for a title shot. I’m worried this could mess things up for us.”

 

Count Vlad: smirking “I am fully aware. Everything is proceeding as foreseen.”

 

The caller's voice wavers, revealing his growing anxiety.

 

Mystery Caller: “But what if she uncovers more? What if Gardinia Blue figures out who the mole is?”  Vlad chuckles softly, his confidence unwavering.

 

Count Vlad: “Calm yourself. Has anything been uncovered about the New Sicilians or the ‘mole’ by our dear HCW forensic investigator?”

 

Mystery Caller: relieved “Nothing new has been uncovered.”  Vlad's tone becomes soothing, almost paternal.

 

Count Vlad: “Good. Trust in our plans. Everything is under control. HCW will be in for a Rude Awakening before they know it.”

 

The camera zooms in on Vlad’s menacing grin, his eyes filled with dark determination as he ends the call. The scene fades to black, leaving a sense of impending doom lingering in the air.

 

Pyro goes off and our show is ready to get underway.

Banker, you may hold the title now, but everyone knows that it belongs in the hands of someone with true wealth and power."

 

Ruth Heartless: "That's right, Sterling. The Banker has been riding on borrowed time. Tonight, the TV Championship will be around the waist of a real tycoon. No more playing games, Banker. It’s time for a true investment in greatness."

 

The Banker: smirking "You think you can just buy your way to the top, Sterling? This title isn't for sale. It’s earned through blood, sweat, and tears. Something I doubt you know anything about."

 

Sterling: "Oh, I know plenty about earning, Banker. And tonight, you’ll see just how far money and brains can take you. This title is just another asset waiting to be acquired."
