Sam Duffy:
“Hello wrestling fans and welcome back to another installment of the HCW Wrestling Newsletter! We are coming to you tonight for another action-packed edition of HCW Voltage!”

 

Rick Granger:
“And unlike some people around here, Sam, Voltage actually knows how to reward greatness. We’ve got rising stars, championship action, and maybe — just maybe — somebody finally smart enough to stop whining and start taking shortcuts.”

 

Sam Duffy:
“You mean cheating.”

 

Rick Granger:
“I mean adapting.”

 

The camera sweeps across the packed arena as fans wave signs and cheer loudly beneath the purple-and-silver Voltage set. Pyro erupts from the stage as the crowd buzzes for the night ahead.

 

Sam Duffy:
“Tonight, Heritage Women’s Champion Korbi Kong defends against the unpredictable Dixie Caverns in our main event!”

 

Rick Granger:
“And I cannot wait to see Dixie throw that entire division into chaos.”

 

Sam Duffy:
“We’ll also see Jack Lumber team with Dominic Marconi against the Million Dollar Alliance, Leslie Grimes battles Avery St. Claire in a heated rematch, and right now, we begin with another Proving Grounds opportunity!”

 

Rick Granger:
“I love these. Fresh meat.”


MATCH #1:  PROVING GROUNDS MATCH

 

Trinity Bowman made her entrance first, walking to the ring with complete confidence and an irritated expression as the crowd showered her with boos.

 

Rick Granger:
“Trinity Bowman has every right to be annoyed. Every week some new rookie strolls in here expecting a contract.”

 

Sam Duffy:
“That’s what Proving Grounds is all about. Earning your place.”

 

The arena lights shifted.

A new theme hit.

 

The crowd reacted with curiosity as Blair Kensington stepped onto the stage for the first time in HCW. Blair carried herself with focused determination, soaking in the atmosphere only briefly before marching toward the ring.

Tony Calibur:
“The following contest is a Proving Grounds match!”

The crowd cheered.

 

Tony Calibur:
“Introducing first… already in the ring… from Phoenix, Arizona… Trinity Bowman!”

Heavy boos echoed throughout the arena.

 

Tony Calibur:
“And her opponent… making her HCW debut… from Charlotte, North Carolina… Blair Kensington!”

A stronger reaction came from the crowd as Blair raised a hand before entering the ring.

 

Sam Duffy:
“This is a huge opportunity for Blair Kensington tonight.”

 

Rick Granger:
“And Trinity Bowman would love nothing more than to slam that opportunity shut.”

 

The bell rang.

Blair wasted no time, immediately surprising Trinity with a Release German Suplex that sent Bowman crashing across the mat. The crowd erupted as Blair followed with crisp offense and surprising power.

 

Sam Duffy:
“Blair Kensington came prepared tonight!”

 

Rick Granger:
“Easy, Sam. Everybody looks good in the opening minute.”

 

Trinity slowed things down with a small package attempt before beginning to target Blair’s neck and shoulders with suplexes and submissions. But every time Trinity appeared ready to seize momentum,

 

Blair answered with explosive counters.

 

A Pendulum DDT shifted the pace.

A devastating Storm Breaker Air Raid Crash Neckbreaker nearly ended the match early.

And even when Trinity locked in the dangerous Bow-Flex submission, Blair refused to quit.

 

Sam Duffy:
“What toughness from this young woman!”

 

Rick Granger:
“Or stupidity. Tapping exists for a reason.”

 

The match stretched past the fifteen-minute mark as Blair continued to overwhelm Trinity with heavy throws, Air Raid Crashes, and crushing powerbombs.

 

Trinity fought desperately to survive, kicking out repeatedly while trying to steal momentum with bridging suplexes and quick counters.

 

But Blair refused to slow down.

 

Late in the match, Blair planted Trinity again with another massive Air Raid Crash before hooking the leg.

 

Sam Duffy:
“This could do it!”

 

Rick Granger:
“She’s not actually going to lose to a rookie, is she?!”

 

ONE!

TWO!

THREE!

The crowd erupted.

 

Sam Duffy:
“What a debut!”

 

Rick Granger:
“Oh, Trinity is going to be unbearable after this.”


WINNER: BLAIR KENSINGTON

via pinfall with an Air Raid Crash


 

Blair sat on one knee in the center of the ring, exhausted but emotional as the fans applauded her debut performance.

 

Trinity Bowman rolled to the outside in frustration, furious at the loss.

 

Sam Duffy:
“Blair Kensington just proved she belongs in HCW.”

 

Rick Granger:
“One match, Sam. ONE match. Let’s not start engraving Hall of Fame plaques yet.”

 

Sam Duffy:
“I don’t know about Hall of Fame, but that was one impressive debut.”


 

BACKSTAGE SEGMENT

The camera cut backstage to Larry Morton standing beside Jack Lumber and “The Italian Thoroughbred” Dominic Marconi.

AI-generated content may be incorrect.

 

 

Both men received a strong ovation from the crowd while Dominic nodded respectfully toward Larry.

 

Larry Morton:
“Gentlemen, in just moments you’ll face the Million Dollar Alliance. Jack, Dominic — over the last several weeks we’ve seen Ruth Heartless and her group manipulate matches, interfere constantly, and create chaos wherever they go. Tonight, you finally get your hands on them.”

 

Jack Lumber:
“You know, Larry… some people think money solves everything.”

Jack smirked slightly.

 

Jack Lumber:
“But money doesn’t make you tougher. Doesn’t make you honest. Doesn’t make you better.”

Big cheers from the crowd.

 

Jack Lumber:
“And tonight? Dominic and I are gonna remind those boys what happens when you step into the ring with men who actually earned their reputations.”

 

Dominic nodded.

 

“The Italian Thoroughbred” Dominic Marconi:
“In my family, respect is everything. You fight with honor. You carry yourself with dignity.”

Dominic looked directly into the camera.

 

“The Italian Thoroughbred” Dominic Marconi:
“The Million Dollar Alliance has neither.”

The crowd cheered loudly again.

 

Slow sarcastic clapping suddenly echoed from off-camera.

 

The camera shifted as Ruth Heartless appeared with The Rich Athlete and Evan Stockwell.

AI-generated content may be incorrect.

 

 

Ruth Heartless:
“Oh, this is adorable.”

Heavy boos.

 

Ruth Heartless:
“Honor. Dignity. Respect.”

She laughed mockingly.

 

Ruth Heartless:
“You know what actually matters in HCW? Winning.”

 

The Rich Athlete:
“And after tonight, all these people are gonna remember exactly why success always rises to the top.”

 

Evan Stockwell:
“You two are antiques.”

Jack stepped forward.

 

Jack Lumber:
“Then get in the ring and prove it.”

The tension escalated as officials stepped into frame before things became physical.


 

Sam Duffy:
“Still to come tonight, Leslie Grimes and Avery St. Claire renew their rivalry, and Korbi Kong defends the Heritage Women’s Championship in our main event!”

 

Rick Granger:
“Right now, though, Angus McRae gets the unenviable task of standing across the ring from Dr. Red Fang.”

Dr. Red Fang entered first with cold intensity, marching to the ring without any trace of theatrics outside of the ever-annoying “VAMPIRE LUNGES FOR EVERYBODY!” screaming from the loudspeakers. The crowd booed heavily as Red Fang stared blankly toward the ring.

 

Sam Duffy:
“There’s something different about Dr. Red Fang lately.”

 

Rick Granger:
“He’s focused. That’s what happens when you stop carrying dead weight around.”

 

Angus McRae entered next alongside Coach Randall to a warm ovation from the crowd.

 

Sam Duffy:
“Angus McRae may be outweighed in experience and brutality tonight, but nobody questions his toughness.”

 

Rick Granger:
“Being tough and being smart are two different things.”

The bell rang.

AI-generated content may be incorrect.

 

 

The opening moments were surprisingly even as both men traded holds and heavy offense. Red Fang nearly twisted Angus apart with a vicious Spider Web Leglock, but Angus answered moments later with a crushing Brainbuster.

 

Sam Duffy:
“These two are beating the hell out of each other early!”

 

Rick Granger:
“This is what happens when you put stubborn people in a wrestling ring.”

 

Angus began building momentum with repeated Single Leg Crabs and punishing power offense, forcing Red Fang to survive extended stretches on defense.

 

But every time Angus appeared ready to take over completely, Red Fang answered with violent bursts of offense.

 

A Vampire Lunge rocked McRae.

A Flying Elbow Ram nearly changed the match entirely.

 

And midway through the bout, Red Fang spun Angus wildly with an Airplane Spin while Coach Randall tried desperately to create openings from ringside.

 

Sam Duffy:
“Coach Randall doing everything he can to keep Angus focused!”

 

Rick Granger:
“That’s because he knows Red Fang only needs one opening.”

 

Late in the match, Angus delivered another devastating Muscle Buster that nearly finished Red Fang for good.

 

The crowd roared as Angus hooked the leg.

 

ONE!

TWO!

NO!

 

Red Fang somehow reversed the pin attempt.

Both men scrambled desperately.

 

Another reversal.

Another near fall.

 

Then Angus exploded upward with one final Muscle Buster in the center of the ring.

 

Sam Duffy:
“He got all of it!”

 

ONE!

TWO!

THREE!

 

The crowd erupted in surprise.


WINNER: ANGUS McRAE

via pinfall with a Muscle Buster


Coach Randall immediately slid into the ring celebrating while Angus tried to catch his breath.

 

Meanwhile, Dr. Red Fang sat motionless against the ropes, staring coldly into the ring with visible frustration.

 

Sam Duffy:
“What a huge win for Angus McRae!”

 

Rick Granger:
“And you can see it on Red Fang’s face — he is NOT taking this well.”

Red Fang slowly stood.

 

For a tense moment, it looked like he might attack Angus from behind.

But instead, Red Fang simply stepped out of the ring and walked toward the back without another word.

 

Sam Duffy:
“That may be even more unsettling.”

 

Rick Granger:
“Oh, somebody is getting hurt after this. Maybe several people.”


 

THE MORTON REPORT

The show returned from commercial to the familiar set of The Morton Report.

 

Larry Morton:
“Ladies and gentlemen, over the last several weeks one man has become impossible to ignore here in HCW… Iosef Koloff.”

The crowd booed loudly.

Larry Morton:
“Undefeated. Unrelenting. And according to multiple reports backstage… actively demanding tougher competition.”

Another replay aired showing Koloff standing over Leopold Dilg after a previous assault.

 

Larry Morton:
“Leopold Dilg has continued to insist he’s medically cleared despite concerns from HCW officials after repeated attacks at the hands of Koloff.”

 

Larry Morton sat at the desk with a serious expression as footage aired on the screen behind him showing recent highlights of Iosef Koloff’s destruction across HCW.

 

Brutal clotheslines.

Crushing suplexes.

The dismantling of Burley Barkley.

And repeated attacks against Leopold Dilg.

The crowd suddenly reacted loudly as the camera shifted backstage live.


 

BACKSTAGE SEGMENT

 

The office door swung open as Leopold Dilg stormed into Max McGillicutty’s office.

AI-generated content may be incorrect.

 

 

Max McGillicutty:
“Leopold, calm down—”

 

Leopold Dilg:
“No.”

Big crowd reaction.

 

Leopold stepped closer to Max’s desk.

 

Leopold Dilg:
“I’m done waiting. I’m done hearing about medical evaluations. I’m done watching Koloff attack people every week.”

 

The crowd applauded.

 

Leopold Dilg:
“He wants tougher competition? Fine. Give him me.”

 

Max McGillicutty:
“Leopold, you’re not fully cleared yet.”

 

Leopold Dilg:
“I don’t care.”

Huge reaction from the audience.

 

Leopold Dilg:
“He attacked me. Again and again. And if nobody’s going to stop him… then I will.”

Max stared at him for a moment before sighing heavily.

 

Max McGillicutty:
“You really want this?”

Leopold nodded immediately.

 

Max slowly stood.

 

Max McGillicutty:
“Fine.”

The crowd cheered loudly.

 

Max McGillicutty:
“HCW Shockwave. Leopold Dilg versus Iosef Koloff.”

Massive crowd reaction.

 

Max McGillicutty:
“But understand something, Leopold… if you want Koloff…”

Max leaned forward.

 

Max McGillicutty:
“You’re getting all of him.”

Leopold never broke eye contact.

 

Leopold Dilg:
“That’s exactly what I’m counting on.”

Leopold exited the office as the crowd roared.


Sam Duffy:
“This one has been brewing for weeks.  Not only Koloff vs Dilg but just tonight, the Million Dollar Alliance wants to heat things up.”

 

Rick Granger:
“Personally, I think the Million Dollar Alliance is about to prove that brains beat brawn.”


The Million Dollar Alliance walked out arrogantly behind Ruth Heartless, soaking in heavy boos.  They wasted no time getting to the ring. 

 

The music changed and out comes Jack Lumber and Dominic Marconi entered to a strong ovation.  Jack is not wearing the Convergent title as it’s not on the line here.  Dominic and Jack shake hands and head to the ring.  Once both teams were in the ring, the bell rang.

Dominic Marconi immediately outwrestled Evan Stockwell early, grounding him with heavy holds and punishing technical offense.

 

Jack Lumber entered moments later and the pace exploded.

Uppercuts.

Atomic drops.

Body slams.

Spears.

 

The crowd roared every time Jack and Dominic cut the ring in half.

 

Sam Duffy:
“Jack Lumber and Dominic Marconi are dominating this match right now!”

 

Rick Granger:
“Well maybe the Alliance is just letting them tire themselves out.”

 

That confidence disappeared quickly as Jack and Dominic repeatedly overwhelmed both members of the Alliance with aggressive double-team offense.

 

The Rich Athlete struggled to gain control.

Evan Stockwell spent large portions of the match trapped on defense.

And Ruth Heartless became increasingly frantic at ringside.

 

Sam Duffy:
“The Million Dollar Alliance cannot keep control here!”

 

Rick Granger:
“Correction — they haven’t cheated enough yet.”

That prediction proved accurate.

 

As Jack appeared ready to finish Evan Stockwell after a brutal Chop to the Chest, Ruth Heartless suddenly gouged Jack in the eyes from the apron.

 

The crowd erupted in boos.

 

Sam Duffy:
“Oh come on!”

 

Rick Granger:
“Veteran strategy!”

The cheating escalated from there.

 

Ruth sprayed hairspray directly into Jack’s face while the referee was distracted.

The Rich Athlete repeatedly interfered during pin attempts.

Stockwell capitalized whenever Jack’s vision became compromised.

 

And despite all of it… Jack and Dominic STILL continued controlling large portions of the match.

 

Late in the bout, Jack and Dominic nearly blew the roof off the arena with a sustained sequence of double-team offense that left The Rich Athlete staggering across the ring.

 

Sam Duffy:
“They are dismantling the Alliance!”

 

Rick Granger:
“Then pin somebody already!”

 

Jack crushed The Rich Athlete with a Spear.

Dominic followed with a Figure-Four Armbar.

 

The crowd was on its feet.

But once again the cheating saved the Alliance.

 

Ruth distracted the referee at the perfect moment.

Stockwell interfered.

The Rich Athlete recovered.

 

And after surviving another brutal exchange, The Rich Athlete suddenly exploded with a devastating Seven-Figure Suplex on Jack Lumber.

 

ONE!

TWO!

THREE!

 

The arena showered the ring with boos.


WINNERS: THE MILLION DOLLAR ALLIANCE

via pinfall after a Seven-Figure Suplex by The Rich Athlete on Jack Lumber (and SOOOO much cheating)


The Rich Athlete immediately rolled from the ring laughing while Ruth Heartless celebrated wildly outside.

 

Inside the ring, Dominic Marconi was furious, arguing with the referee while Jack sat against the ropes clearly exhausted and frustrated.

 

Sam Duffy:
“The Million Dollar Alliance STOLE this match.”

 

Rick Granger:
“Stole? No. They survived. Big difference.”

 

Sam Duffy:
“Jack Lumber and Dominic Marconi controlled most of that contest!”

 

Rick Granger:
“And yet who’s leaving with the victory?”

 

The Rich Athlete backed up the ramp smiling arrogantly while Ruth applauded mockingly toward the ring. The TV Champion WOOOO’d all the way to the back while the fans booed the crap out of them. 


 

BACKSTAGE SEGMENT

The camera cut backstage where Larry Morton stood beside Avery St. Claire and Coach Randall.

Avery looked focused but visibly emotional following the increasingly personal rivalry with Leslie Grimes.

 

 

A cartoon of two people

AI-generated content may be incorrect.

 

 

Larry Morton:
“Avery, in just moments you step back into the ring with Leslie Grimes after weeks of escalating hostility between the two of you. What’s your mindset tonight?”

 

Avery took a breath.

 

Avery St. Claire:
“My mindset?”

She nodded slowly.

 

Avery St. Claire:
“Leslie Grimes embarrassed me. She’s mocked me. She’s tried to make me doubt myself every single week.”

The crowd booed at the mention of Leslie.

 

Avery St. Claire:
“But tonight isn’t about embarrassment anymore.”

Avery stared directly into the camera.

 

Avery St. Claire:
“It’s about proving I can beat her.”

Coach Randall stepped forward.

 

Coach Randall:
“Avery’s ready.”

He pointed toward the camera.

 

Coach Randall:
“But Leslie Grimes doesn’t wrestle to win.”

The crowd reacted.

 

Coach Randall:
“She wrestles to humiliate.”

Avery nodded silently before heading toward the curtain.


 

Back at commentary:

Sam Duffy:
“This rivalry has become deeply personal.”

 

Rick Granger:
“And honestly? I kind of enjoy watching Leslie Grimes get under Avery’s skin.”


 

Leslie Grimes entered first with her usual smug confidence, taunting fans along the aisle while soaking in heavy boos.

 

Avery St. Claire entered next to a strong ovation, immediately locking eyes with Leslie from across the ring.  Coach Randall left the ring and stood in the corner continuing to encourage Avery on.

 

The bell rang.

 

 


 

 

A poster of a person and person

AI-generated content may be incorrect.

 

 

Avery came out aggressively, overwhelming Leslie early with athletic offense and sharp counters.

 

A Prettiest Moonsault Ever brought the crowd to its feet almost immediately.

A Pop-Up Samoan Drop nearly ended the match before the ten-minute mark.

 

And repeated Bridging Back Racks forced Leslie into survival mode.

 

Sam Duffy:
“Avery St. Claire is wrestling with urgency tonight!”

 

Rick Granger:
“She’s wrestling angry. Big difference.”

 

Coach Randall constantly encouraged Avery from ringside, helping keep her focused whenever Leslie attempted to slow the pace.

 

But Leslie slowly began changing the rhythm of the match.

 

Cheap shots.

Hair pulls.

Sudden counters.

Mocking smiles after near falls.

 

Every time Avery gained momentum, Leslie found a way to frustrate her.

 

Sam Duffy:
“This is exactly what Coach Randall warned us about.”

 

Rick Granger:
“It’s called strategy, Sam.”

 

The match evolved into a frantic back-and-forth battle as both women traded increasingly dangerous offense.

 

Flatliners.

Hurricanranas.

Lou Thesz Presses.

Moonsaults from both competitors.

 

Near falls became more frequent as the crowd grew louder with every passing minute.

 

At one point, Avery nearly secured the victory following another Prettiest Moonsault Ever, but Leslie barely escaped at two.

 

Moments later, Leslie answered with a moonsault of her own and nearly stole the match herself.

 

Sam Duffy:
“These two are throwing everything they have at each other!”

 

Rick Granger:
“And neither one can finish the job!”

 

The pace became frantic during the final minutes.

Both women were exhausted.

Both desperate.

Both refusing to stay down.

 

Leslie attempted repeated roll-ups.

Avery countered with Flatliners and Cobra Clutches.

The crowd loudly counted along as the remaining seconds ticked away.

 

Finally—

The bell rang.

The time limit had expired.


RESULT: 30-MINUTE TIME LIMIT DRAW


The crowd gave both women a strong ovation as they struggled to stand.

 

Sam Duffy:
“What a war!”

 

Rick Granger:
“And somehow these two STILL hate each other.”

 

Avery leaned against the ropes trying to recover—

—but Leslie suddenly attacked her from behind.

Massive boos filled the arena.

 

Sam Duffy:
“Oh come on!”

 

Leslie hammered Avery repeatedly with forearms before driving her violently into the turnbuckles.

Coach Randall immediately rushed into the ring trying to protect Avery.

 

Officials poured down the entrance ramp as Leslie continued screaming at Avery.

 

Leslie Grimes:
“You STILL can’t beat me!”

 

Leslie finally backed away smiling viciously while Avery tried to pull herself upright with Coach Randall helping her.

 

Sam Duffy:
“This rivalry is nowhere near over.”

 

Rick Granger:
“I’ll agree with you there.”


BACKSTAGE SEGMENT

 

The camera shifted backstage to Larry Morton standing beside Heritage Women’s Champion Korbi Kong.

 

Korbi wore the championship proudly around her waist as the crowd applauded.

AI-generated content may be incorrect.

 

 

Larry Morton:
“Korbi, tonight you defend the Heritage Women’s Championship against one of the most unpredictable competitors in HCW… Dixie Caverns.”

Korbi nodded calmly.

 

Korbi Kong:
“Dixie Caverns is dangerous because she wants chaos.”

The crowd reacted.

 

Korbi Kong:
“She wants confusion. She wants people uncomfortable. She wants this division to lose control.”

Korbi adjusted the championship on her shoulder.

 

Korbi Kong:
“But this title represents discipline. Pride. Strength.”

Huge cheers.

 

Korbi Kong:
“And tonight, I remind everybody exactly what a champion looks like.”

Suddenly, strange laughing echoed nearby.

 

The camera shifted slightly as Dixie Caverns briefly appeared in the background staring toward Korbi with an unsettling grin.

 

Dixie slowly tilted her head… laughed again… then disappeared out of frame.

Korbi never turned around.

 

Larry Morton:
“…Well then.”


 

The arena lights dimmed as anticipation built for the main event.

 

Sam Duffy:
“Main event time here on Voltage, and Korbi Kong once again puts the Heritage Women’s Championship on the line.”

 

Rick Granger:
“I still think Dixie Caverns is exactly the kind of chaos this division needs.”

 

Sam Duffy:
“You may be alone in that opinion.”


 

Dixie Caverns made her entrance first, slowly emerging onto the stage with an eerie grin spread across her face. She wandered toward the ring almost aimlessly, occasionally laughing to herself as the crowd reacted with uneasiness.

 

Rick Granger:
“I’m telling you, Sam, there’s something entertaining about somebody this unhinged.”

 

Sam Duffy:
“There’s also something dangerous about it.”

 

The arena erupted as the music of Korbi Kong hit.

The Heritage Women’s Champion stepped onto the stage with complete confidence, the championship draped proudly over her shoulder.


Tony Calibur:
“The following contest is scheduled for one fall… and it is for the HCW Heritage Women’s Championship!”

Huge crowd reaction.

 

Tony Calibur:
“Introducing first… the challenger… from Black Hollow County… Dixie Caverns!”

Boos echoed throughout the building as Dixie grinned wildly inside the ring.

 

Tony Calibur:
“And her opponent… she is the reigning and defending HCW Heritage Women’s Champion… KORBI KONG!”

Massive ovation.

 

Korbi raised the championship high before handing it to the referee.

The bell rang.

AI-generated content may be incorrect.

 

 

Korbi immediately established control with raw power and disciplined offense, flattening Dixie early with running shoulder blocks and heavy forearm uppercuts.

 

Sam Duffy:
“Korbi Kong wasting absolutely no time here.”

 

Rick Granger:
“She’s trying to keep Dixie from turning this into a circus.”

 

Korbi continued punishing the challenger with backbreakers, powerslams, and repeated rear chin locks designed to slow Dixie’s frantic pace.

 

Twice Korbi trapped Dixie inside the devastating Arm Triangle Lock.

Twice Dixie somehow survived.

 

Sam Duffy:
“Dixie Caverns refusing to quit!”

 

Rick Granger:
“That woman probably thinks pain is funny.”

 

Dixie finally created openings midway through the match with sudden bursts of unpredictable offense.

A diving crossbody stunned the champion.

 

A vicious facebuster nearly shifted momentum entirely.

And for several moments, the crowd grew concerned as Dixie began matching Korbi strike-for-strike.

 

Sam Duffy:
“This is the danger Dixie Caverns presents! You can never fully predict what she’s going to do next!”

 

Rick Granger:
“Maybe Korbi’s finally realizing this isn’t as easy as she thought.”

 

But every time Dixie threatened to gain full control, Korbi answered with force.

Another stiff forearm uppercut rocked the challenger.

A brutal running clothesline nearly folded Dixie in half.

 

And finally, after surviving one last desperate flurry, Korbi planted Dixie with a crushing backbreaker in the center of the ring.

 

Sam Duffy:
“That might do it!”

 

ONE!

TWO!

THREE!

The crowd erupted.


WINNER AND STILL HCW HERITAGE WOMEN’S CHAMPION: KORBI KONG

via pinfall after a Backbreaker


 

Korbi Kong rose to her feet as the referee handed her the championship.

 

Dixie Caverns rolled slowly toward the corner laughing quietly to herself even in defeat.


Rick Granger:
“You know what’s disturbing? I don’t even think losing bothers Dixie Caverns.”

 

Sam Duffy:
“Well regardless, Korbi Kong once again proves why she’s one of the toughest champions in HCW.”

 

Korbi climbed the turnbuckles holding the title high while the crowd cheered loudly.


Sam Duffy:
“What a night here on HCW Voltage! Blair Kensington impressed in her Proving Grounds debut, Angus McRae scored a huge upset over Dr. Red Fang, the Million Dollar Alliance stole one from Jack Lumber and Dominic Marconi, and Leslie Grimes and Avery St. Claire nearly tore each other apart!”

 

Rick Granger:
“And don’t forget — Shockwave just got a whole lot more dangerous with Leopold Dilg demanding a match against Iosef Koloff.”

 

Sam Duffy:
“That is going to be explosive.”

 

Rick Granger:
“Assuming Leopold survives it.”

 

Sam Duffy:
“For Rick Granger, I’m Sam Duffy saying thank you for joining us for another installment of the HCW Wrestling Newsletter! We’ll see you next time!”

 

The camera closed on Korbi Kong celebrating with the championship as Voltage faded off the air.
