HWF/CSWA Wrestling Newsletter 2014 – 08.03

Hello fans and welcome back to our newsletter.  Today’s show comes to you from St. Louis, MO.  There was such a huge mess after the KC show that it took the cleaning crew an extra 4 hours to clean up after Centurion’s win.  We’re happy for him but really, 4 hours to clean up after him?  Really?

Today’s show begins with Bray Wyatt and Wyatt’s Warriors making their way down to the ring.  The newly crowned European Champion Centurion is beaming.  6 man tag team champions Warrior of Truth, Super Warrior and Centurion say they will take on all challengers.  Hulk Hogan comes out and tells Centurion that he is in possession of two titles and he will be required to defend both the 6 man and European titles.  Hogan tells them their opponents will be the Mexicali Flyers and Rey Rey.  The Undead Warrior promises that he will win tonight’s battle and then go on to win back his title at the Clash.  Bray Wyatt steps up and tells Batista that the “dark side” is beaconing.  He will be the newest member of Wyatt’s Warriors whether Batista likes it or not.  This brings out Batista who runs down to the ring and attacks Bray but Wyatt’s Warriors squash him before he can do much damage.  Bray hits the Sister Abigail on Dave and Bray stands tall.  Wyatt’s Warriors all leave the ring.

Our first match is a mini tournament to see who will go to the Clash to meet Gail Kim for the Women’s title.   The mini tournament consisted of ODB, Natalya Neidhart, Layla El and Velvet Sky.   Velvet eliminates ODB; Layla eliminates Natalya.  Velvet and Layla then had a standard match which saw the former champion Layla El take the fight to Velvet.  About 25 minutes into the match, the Women’s champion Gail Kim came down and talked smack to Layla.  Velvet took advantage of the distraction to nail a reverse bulldog and roll up Layla for the pin.  Velvet Sky will be going on to meet Gail Kim at the PPV.

We cut to a vignette of Cactus Jackie hanging out at a pool but she is all dressed up.  “When you’re the Diva’s champion, you always have to look your best.  That is why, even at poolside, I am all class.  No one can touch the awesomeness that I exude.  None of the other women in the HWF or CSWA can hold a candle to me.  I am the greatest champion to ever set foot in the ring.”  While this is going on, Ravishing Raquel sneaks up behind Jackie and kicks her squarely in the butt sending her flailing into the water.  Raquel smiles and says “See you at the Clash, bitch.”  Jackie is spitting water and is furious.  As the camera fades out, a kid throws her a baseball and in makes a big splash right next to her further exasperating her mood.

The first of our qualifying matches puts the Undead Warrior vs the A-Team’s Antonio Cesaro.  Cesaro is beating the tar out of the Undead Warrior until Bray Wyatt came out.  Undead warrior sees him and is filled with inspiration.  He then sends Cesaro to the outside where he tombstone piledrives him on the floor. Antonio is out cold.  Undead Warrior rolls back in and wins and advances via CO.

Next on the card  is A-Team member and North American Champion Alberto Del Rio vs King Damian Sandow for the title.  Cesaro limps back out along with Austin Aries.  Sandow is looking for the rest of Prestige Inc but they are nowhere to be found.  The A-Team triple team Sandow and 7 minutes later, Del Rio gets the win.   We cut to the back and we see Reid and Magnus break through a door (they presumably were locked in) and rush to the ring.  Reid and Magnus rush down to the ring and the A-Team bails.  Prestige Inc challenges the A-team to a match but A-team does not yet accept.  We’ll need to see what transpires next.

In the back, Alberto Del Rio runs into the World’s Strongest Man Mark Henry and Henry tells Del Rio to watch where he’s going.  Del Rio doesn’t like Henry’s tone so he tells him to back off before he (Alberto) does something to Henry that he (Henry) won’t like.  Henry challenges him for the title at Clash and tells Alberto to put his mouth where his title is.

Next up is AJ styles vs Curtis Axel to see who meets Christopher Daniels for the US Title.  In just 4 short minutes, Axel, tired of getting his ass handed to him, walks out of the match resulting in a count out.  AJ is going to the Clash.

Following this is the next qualifying match with John Cena taking on the Axe. Cena totally underestimated his opponent and Axe took advantage of it.  After an exhausting 8 minutes, Axe nails Cena with ‘the Axe’ and gets the 1-2-3.  Axe is advancing and will meet the Undead Warrior in the main event.

The Internet Media Champion and Prestige Inc member Magnus comes out and calls out Tajiri.  Tajiri runs in from the crowd and attacks Magnus briefly before running away.  Magnus recovers and challenges him to a match at the PPV.  Tajiri accepts.

Our second to last match is the Mexicali Flyers vs the Dudley Boys for a shot at the tag team titles at the PPV.  In just 7 minutes, the Dudley’s get the gin after Tornado en Fuego goes flying over the top rope and crashes hard on the floor resulting in a countout.  The Dudley Boys will be meeting VamChango for the World Tag Team titles.

In the main event, the Undead Warrior took on the Axe.  Unbeknownst to the Undead Warrior, Bray Wyatt mad his way down to the ring.  When Undead Warrior finally realized someone was there, he looked up but what he saw made his eyes go wide.  He was looking at…Paul Bearer (RIP)!  What the hell?  ‘Paul’ leans over and says “Remember who you are…remember who you are.”  Undead Warrior shakes his head and there is Bray Wyatt yelling “Remember who you are, Undead Warrior.  Get the job done.”  In 12 minutes, Undead Warrior gets the win after hitting the Last Ride.  Axe went toe to toe with UW from the beginning of the match but then ran out of gas (apparently his win over Cena exhausted him).  Undead Warrior is going to the semi-finals for the CSWA World Title.  At our next show, we will have the #1 Seed Alberto Del Rio taking on the #4 seed Undead Warrior and the #2 seed Jeff Hardy taking on #3 seed Dirk ‘the Pick’ Devon.

That is all for now.  Stay tuned as the Clash will be here before you know it.

HWF/CSWA Wrestling Newsletter 2014 – 08.02

Hello fans and welcome back to our newsletter. Today’s show comes to you LIVE from Kansas City, MO – the home of Master Bull/Centurion.  Before the show can begin, we see Centurion (who gets a huge pop from the KC crowd) approach Hogan’s office.  He walks in without being invited in.  Centurion tells Hogan that this is HIS town and HE is performing in the main event so Hogan had best find him an opponent.  Hogan tells Centurion that he is in luck.  “It just so happens, brother that the European title held by Jay Lethal needs to be defended.  You and he can have a match and the winner gets the title.  Good luck, Brother.”  Centurion furrows his brow at Hogan wondering what he is up to but just nods and walks out.   Hogan then picks up the phone and closes the door on the cameraman. 

The first match of the night is CWO member Dirk “the Pick” Devon taking on the monster Abyss.  Dirk was accompanied by his partner The Axe.  At first Dirk didn’t want to get in the ring with him but relented after a pep talk from the Axe.  In a very surprising move, Dirk owned Abyss.  He never let the monster get much in for offense.  Right about the 13 minute mark, Dirk went to talk to Axe and it looked like something was slipped into Dirk’s elbow pad.  Dirk then charged and nailed a clothesline and Abyss looked to be out cold.  Dirk made the cover and got the win.  Dirk moves on in the tournament.

Next on the card is the second tournament match with AJ Styles taking on Daniel Bryan.  In a very surprising match, this one only goes 5 minutes with Daniel Bryan getting the win after nailing a missile dropkick.  The final between Bryan and Dirk Devon will be later in the show.

Next on the card is our tag team match that is a tables match with the Dudleys taking on RVD and Ryback.  Hogan said that the winner of this match will be in line for a tag team title shot.  Before the match could begin, Bubba got on the mic and said that the specialty type has changed slightly and now this is an ECW rules match.  Rob smiled but Ryback looked worried.

Rob and Ryback owned the Dudleys until the final moments of the match.  A quick tag out to Rob and as he was going for the 5 star frog splash, Devon and Bubba nailed a 3D through a table.  Devon takes out Ryback and Bubba makes the cover and gets the pin.  The Dudleys are now contenders for the Tag team titles held by VamChango and that they will take their match at Clash of the Champions.  This brought out the #1 contenders the Mexicali Flyers.  The Flyers said that they should in fact be getting the match at the clash but issue a challenge to the Dudleys.  If the Flyers win, they get the title shot and if the Dudley’s win, they do.  Both parties agreed and shook hands.

Next on the card is Shield member Roman Reigns vs Captain Charisma Christian.  In a very dominating performance, Reigns took the match to the former champion and in 11 minutes, gets the win after hitting a powerbomb.  I would be very surprised if Reigns wasn’t going after a title very soon.

Dirk and Daniel Bryan come out next for their match.  Dirk tried to complain to the ref about fighting so soon and not getting enough rest but the ref shoved him and told him to man up.  Dirk did, in fact, man up as he totally dominated Daniel Bryan but try as he could, he could not pin Daniel.  The match was closing in on the 30 minute time limit and Dirk was running out of steam.  The clock on the wall started counting down the remaining seconds and Dirk, in a desperate act, caught Bryan in a Tama Bearhug and lowered the shoulders to the mat.  The ref makes the count and with only seconds to spare, Dirk Devon gets the win.  The Axe comes out to celebrate with his partner and they leave with Dirk’s arms raised in victory.

In the back, Hogan stops Roman Reigns and congratulates him on such a great performance.  “For that, brother, I think you should get a title shot.  In fact, I think you are the perfect opponent for X-Division Champion Casey Jones.  At the Clash, you get a shot at gold.”  Reigns nodded his thanks and left.

The main event of the evening is home town hero Centurion taking on Jay Lethal for the European title.  Hogan came out and said that this would have a 60 minute time limit and the no count out rule would be in effect.   Before the match could begin, HWF and Undisputed Champion Bray Wyatt came out accompanied by the Warrior of Truth and the Super Warrior.  Centurion, filled with the energy of the KC crowd and well as the Roman Warriors of the past, took the match to the champ and blew the roof off the house.  Lethal had no idea how to stop him.  Towards the end, Lethal nails a double axe handle smash but then gets dumped out of the ring.  Had there been the countout rule in place, Lethal would have been counted out.  Instead, he used the extra time to gather his bearings and climbed to the top turnbuckle to execute the flying elbow smash.  He waited a second too long as Centurion popped up and nailed a one-arm chokeslam and PINNED the champ.  HOLY CRAP – Centurion just won the European Title.  Bray and the Warriors got in the ring with Centurion and they all celebrated as balloons and confetti fell from the ceiling.

That’s all for now.  As we continue to ramp up to the PPV, things are sure to get more exciting.  Stay Tuned.

HWF/CSWA Wrestling Newsletter 2014 – 08.01

Hello fans and welcome back to our newsletter.  Today we come to you from Wichita, KS.  Our next PPPV, Clash of the Champions, will be coming to you live from Denver, CO.  Hulk Hogan makes his appearance and lets everyone know that every person with a title will be defending it at the PPV as well as the crowning of the new CSWA champion.  In action today, Reid Rothchild is defending the Elitist title, VamChango are defending the tag team titles, Diva’s champion Cactus Jackie will be on hand for an interview and we have the next batch of qualifiers for the CSWA World title tournament.

The first match of the night is for the Tag Team titles with the champions, representatives of the 719 Cartel VamChango taking on Team HP consisting of Bran-Don-Goh and Casey Jones.  This one goes 26 minutes and sees a great performance from both teams.  In the end, El Chango nails Casey Jones with a spear and makes the cover.  VamChango retain the titles.

Next up is our first in the qualifying matches with “the Man” Austin Aries taking on Chris Jericho.  This one doesn’t go very long after Aries, who was accompanied by the A-Team, sent his partners to the back.  Jericho managed to lock Aries in the Walls of Jericho and got “the Man” to tap out in 3 minutes.  Chris Jericho advances.

In the back, Diva’s Champion Cactus Jackie is being interviewed and she, of course, is slamming the previous champion Ravishing Raquel.  Raquel walks up and tells Jackie to put up or shut up.  She is challenging Jackie to a match at Clash of the Champions.  Jackie, on the spot and not wanting to look weak, accepts.  As Raquel is leaving, Jackie attacks her and locks her in the Cactus Stretch.  Eventually she lets go.  “You want to call me out, bitch?  Fine, now you get to experience what it feels like to continue to be a loser.”  Jackie walks away as medics come in to check on Raquel.

Next on the card is the Elitist Reid Rothchild defending the Elitist title against David Otunga.  This one goes an exhausting 20 minutes that sees Reid retain after nailing Otunga with a Rothchild stunner.  After the match, Alexander Rusev runs in and blasts Reid.  He locks him in a Bulgarian bearhug until Reid passes out.  He then drops Reid and announces he is challenging for the Elitist title at Clash of the Champions.  He picks up Reid and after grabbing his hair, shakes his head “yes” to show he accepted.  Looks like we have ourselves another match.

We have our next qualifying match with the Olympic Hero Kurt Angle taking on the Enigma Jeff Hardy.  Kurt was in control for a full 7 minutes but then lost his concentration.  Hardy capitalized and nailed a swanton bomb to secure a win. 

HWF World Champion Bray Wyatt comes out and says that there is one man he wants to face at Clash and that is Batista.  Batista hasn’t been seen in a while so he wants to make him “relevant” again.  He reminds us that Dave necessarily isn’t the top contender so there is a stipulation to this specialty match - if Dave loses, he must become part of Wyatt’s Warriors.  He asks Batista to come out and give his answer. Dave comes out to the cheering of the fans and accepts the match.  Dave tells Bray to bring his best game because he is the one walking out with the title unless Bray can figure out how to stop him.  Both men eventually leave.

Our second to last match is Chris Jericho taking on Jeff Hardy to see who will win this bracket.  Here was another match where Y2J controlled the tempo of the match but a moment lapse in concentration and Jericho was on the outside of the ring.  Hardy nails a suicide dive and plants Jericho into the ringside barrier.  He rolls back in beating the 10 count.  Jeff Hardy gets to move on.

The main event of the evening is Bray Wyatt’s first title defense against the All-American Jack Swagger.  Bray reminds Swagger that all his matches are specialty and that he had best work hard to fight for it.   Swagger says he wants a boot camp match and the champ obliges.  The match goes 16 minutes and is dominated by the champ.  The end comes after Bray executes the Drop and give foe 20 pushups.  Bray is successful in his first title defense.

There is much more to come so stay tuned.

HWF/CSWA Wrestling Newsletter 2014 – 07.09

***Note, this was supposed to be posted in July but without Internet access, it got delayed***

Hello fans and welcome back to our newsletter.  Our final show for the month of July took place in Tucson, AZ.  The Hulkster makes his way out and informs the fans (in this god-awful furnace) that today’s event will have the first bracket in determining a new CSWA World Champion.  Also in action will be Alexander Rusev taking on “the Elitist” Reid Rothchild, Wyatt’s Warrior member Centurion taking on Psycho Jack Hercules, and many other surprises.  Hulk didn’t have his “meat shield” with him so he opted not to badmouth the city of Tucson.  His message was short and sweet and we were able to get right on to the matches.

Jerking the curtain is Centurion vs Psycho Jack.  Psycho Jack controlled the entire match as I think Centurion’s mind was elsewhere.  It only took 8 minutes for Jack to finish off Centurion with the Shower Slasher.  Centurion left immediately after the match.

In the back, roving reporter Clarkus Kentus was trying to interview RVD and Ryback when they were interrupted by the Dudley’s.  Ryback and Rob gloated about their win over such a veteran team such as the Dudleys.  Rob said they could beat them again anywhere in any kind of match and Bubba Ray offered to make their next match a tables match.  Rob spoke up for the dumbstruck Ryback and agreed.  The Dudleys walked away and Ryback questioned what his partner was up to.  “Hey man, it’s ok.   You know, its 4:20 somewhere and I got “someone” to go meet.  Catch ya later partner.”  Rob left and Ryback just stood there looking confused.

The first qualifying match is up next with Seed #1 Samoa Joe taking on #4 Randy Orton.  Typical Orton cheating for 2 minutes then he tossed Joe out of the ring.  He nailed an RKO on the floor and Joe got counted out.  Samoa Joe was pissed.  The fans began to chant “Joe’s gonna kill you” and Randy looked a little scared so he bolted to the back followed by the Samoan.

The next match is #2 seed Rey Mysterio taking on #3 seed Alberto Del Rio.  Del Rio came out with the A-Team to make sure that Rey didn’t try anything funny.  Del Rio was getting his ass handed to him until about 10 minutes in.  Rey tossed Alberto out of the ring and the leader of the A-team “The Man” Austin Aries pulled Del Rio aside to give him some advice.  Aries walked around to the other side of the ring drawing the attention of the ref.  Antonio Cesaro grabbed a chair and nailed Rey in the arm with it.  Del Rio jumped back in the ring and locked in the rolling cross armbreaker.  Rey taps out giving the win to Del Rio.  By this time, 719 cartel members the Mexicali Flyers and VamChango ran down and chased off the A-Team.  They helped Rey to his feet and they all left together.

The Internet Media Champion and Prestige Inc member Magnus made his way down to the ring.  Magnus talked about all the great IM champs that have come and gone and he is sure to be remembered as one of the greats.  He is then interrupted by….Tajiri!  Holy Cow – Tajiri has come to the CSWA and HWF.  Tajiri motions he wants a match against Magnus and the champ obliges.  Magnus controls the match and in 17 minutes is able to secure a pin after hitting an armwringer.  After the match, Tajiri walked up to him and shook his hand…and then superkicked him.  The champ was stunned.  Tajiri went to the top rope and nailed a flying legdrop.  He brushed himself off and walked out.  The fans didn’t know what to think so the crowd was quite quiet.

Alexander Rusev made his way out to the ring and continued his bash against America.  Reid Rothchild began to make his way out when the All-American Jack Swagger came out.  Swagger said he was tired of sitting in the back listening to this chump run his mouth.  He asked Reid if he could have this match.  Reid said “Be my guest.”  Swagger runs down only to be met by Rusev who powerslams him on the steel steps.  It looks like Swagger is really hurt.  Rusev tosses Jack in the ring and after the bell is rung, stands on Swagger’s back inflicting more pain.  He then picks him up and locks him in a bearhug and Jack submits.  Rusev drops him like a wet burlap sack and then continues to taunt Reid.  Reid gets in the ring only for Rusev to jump out the other side and head back up the ramp.  This one may be coming to a boiling point sooner rather than later.

Our second to last match is for the Intercontinental title with the champion Dolph Ziggler taking on Kazarian.  Ziggler maintained control of the match and after Kaz got distracted, Dolph finished him off in 12 minutes with a fireman’s carry.  Dolph was leaving when Kaz asked about the ‘best of 3 falls’ rule.  Hogan came out and told Kaz that he was changing that rule and only when the belt is on the line at a PPV will that rule be enforced going forward.  Kaz tried to complain but no one wanted to hear it.

Our main event and the finals of our first bracket are Alberto Del Rio taking on Randy Orton.  Here was another match where Alberto was getting his ass kicked until the A-Team came back out.  Orton yelled at the ref to make sure they stay out of his match.  Alberto reached into his tights and pulled out a foreign object and nailed Randy in the back of the head with it.  He then picked him up and executed a falling powerbomb 6 minutes into the match.  With a little hook of the tights, Alberto gets the 1-2-3 and is the winner of his bracket.  Alberto Del Rio gets to move forward.  Austin Aries and Antonio Cesaro join him in the ring and they celebrate much to the dismay of the fans.

That is all for now.  Stay tuned.  Same Bat-time, same Bat-Channel.

HWF/CSWA Wrestling Newsletter 2014 – 07.07

Hello fans and welcome back to the HWF and CSWA wrestling newsletter.  Today’s episode comes to you from a taped event in El Paso, TX.  The show begins with GM Hulk Hogan making his typical address to the crowd.  “The Hulkster is in the house, brother.  Also in the house are new talents that I have signed from all over the globe.  They are the new blood being infused into the CSWA and HWF.  You saw on the last show the return of Devon Dudley.  Devon is back on the active roster. I am also pleased to announce the new additions of Adam Rose, Sami Zayne, Kenta Kobiashi, Ethan Carter III and Sanada.  .  This new blood get to showcase their talents against my CWO so we’ll see how good they actually are.  Also tonight will be a qualifying match between Batista and Abyss.  In our main event, the Undead Warrior gets one more shot.  He has to win this one if he wants in to the CSWA World title tournament.  His opponent will be announced later tonight.  With that out of the way, let’s get this show started.” (Editors’ note:  There was very little reaction from the El Paso crowd.  I guess they’re just happy to be out of the heat of the Texas sun).

The first match of the night is A-Team member Alberto Del Rio taking on Ethan Carter III.  The announcer only ended up referring to him as Ethan Carter and he took obvious offense to it.  “THE THIRD.  Ethan Carter THE THIRD.  Get it RIGHT!”  EC3 took the match to the Latino aristocrat and after a brief beatdown from Del Rio, EC3 controlled the entire match.  Fortunately for Del Rio, the 20 minute time limit bell rang and he took off to avoid any further beating.  The crowd chanted “EC3, EC3. EC3”.  He shook hands with the fans before heading to the back.

Match #2 is Adam Rose (accompanied to the ring by assorted fans called the ‘Rosebuds’) taking on Dirk “the Pick” Devon.  Here is another match where the CWO did not represent well.  Rose beat the Pick from pillar to post and in the few remaining seconds, Dirk looked up to see the time limit almost expiring and he breathed a sigh of relief.  However, it was too soon as Rose nailed a Samoan driver and scored a pin just before the time limit ran out.  Pick rolled out of the ring and slinked his way to the back.  Rose and the rosebuds celebrated with the fans and then also left.

In the back, Aries and Cesaro were heckling Del Rio for not being able to take out a newbie.  In fact, both Aries and Cesaro told Del Rio they would get the job done and before the time limit could expire.  They even heckled the Pick as he was slinking by.  He turned and gave them the finger which only incited them more.  Hogan walked over and told them to cut it out.  “Cesaro, you are up next.  Do us proud.”  He patted Antonio on the back as he made his way to the ring.

Match #3 is Antonio Cesaro taking on Sanada.  Cesaro was underprepared from the onslaught that Sanada brought forth.  Antonio did manage to make it to 18 minutes but fell victim to a well-executed Dragon Suplex and Sanada got the win.  Antonio took the walk of shame to the back preparing himself for heckling from his teammates while Sanada took off through the crowd.

Match #4 is the Axe taking on Sami Zayn.  This had to be the most embarrassing match of the night with Zayn totally dominating the Axe.  It only took 10 minutes for Zayn to hit a Three Quarter nelson Suplex and the newcomer gets his first win.  Axe, however, was not happy and tried to attack Zayn after the bell but after an exploding Suplex, Axe tucked his tail between his legs and left.  Zayn celebrated with the fans before making his way back.

In the back, Aries is heckling everybody.  “Man, do I have to be the only one who can win a match for our team?  You know what?  I’ll do Hogan proud and score the one and only win for the CWO since the rest of you couldn’t seem to get the job done.  Watch a professional do it.”  Cesaro stopped him. “One sec.  You are doing all the heckling but you haven’t won anything yet.  If you are so confident in your abilities, how about a wager?  If you win, you can be the official leader of the A-Team.”  Del Rio nodded in acknowledgement.  “However, If you lose, you need to do something degrading….like wrestle in a dress.”  Aries laughed a hearty laugh.  “Is that the best you could come up with?  Fine but once I win, you will refer to me as ‘the Man’ Austin Aries.”  Aries left to head to the ring.

Match #5 is Austin Aries taking on Kenta Kobiashi.  Aries showed the newcomer why he was chosen by Hogan to be a member of the A-Team.  Kenta gave him a run for his money but in the end of 18 minutes, Aries nailed the Aries 450 to score the pin.  Confetti and balloons fall from the ceiling as Aries celebrates his win.  He even instructed the announcer to call him ‘the Man’ Austin Aries.

Match #6 is a qualifying match between Batista and Abyss.  This was a short match that saw Abyss get the win in 4 minutes.  Abyss and Batista were fighting on the outside of the ring and Abyss chokeslammed him on the floor.  He then rolled back in to barely beat the 10 count.  Batista stays in the HWF and Abyss is part of the World title tourney for the CSWA World title.

Match #7 was supposed to be Gail Kim vs Ravishing Raquel but after Gail made her way to the ring and then no Raquel came out, she told the ref to ring the bell and DQ Raquel.  The ref made it up to 8 before a bloody Raquel makes her way out to the ring followed by doctors.  Gail bails out of the ring and is smiling.   Hulk Hogan makes his way out and says that champions should not be cowards and instead of Raquel getting a non-title match, at the next show, she gets a title shot.  Gail is not happy.

The main event of the evening is the Undead Warrior taking on ??? for an entry spot for the CSWA World title.  Undead Warrior makes his way out followed by Bray Wyatt and the rest of the Warriors – Centurion, Super Warrior and the Warrior of Truth.  Hogan comes out and says that Undead Warrior’s opponent will be…HIM.  That’s right, Hogan is stepping back into the ring and will put the Undead Warrior to rest once and for all.  “Hang on a sec brother…I just remembered…I’m not cleared to wrestle at all.” This brought booing and hissing from each and every fan in the building…it was deafening.  “Shut your pie holes.” Hogan yelled back at them.  Hogan called for his Meat Shield when debris started flying his way.   “I’m going to be a nice guy and give an HWF’r a chance to qualify for the CSWA title.  Bobby Lashley, the fight is yours.  If you win, you are in the tourney.”  Lashley nodded and started to make his way to the ring when Brock Lesnar ran out and beat down on Bobby including throwing him into the ring side steps.  Lesnar grabbed a mic and said that if anyone is getting a shot here, it is HIM.  Lashley was up and nailed a spear on Brock.  Both men started pounding the stuffing out of each other when Hogan’s Meat Shield ran down to separate them.  Hogan got back on the mic “Neither of you are in so I’ll find someone else.”  Batista came out and told Hulk he wanted the shot at the Undead Warrior.  Hogan agreed and Batista went to the ring.

The first fall goes to Batista who in 13 minutes put Undead Warrior down with a powerslam.  The second fall goes to the Undead Warrior who got the pin in 15 minutes after locking in a throat choke.  The match goes another 18 minutes and even though Hogan tried to distract Undead Warrior, Bray Wyatt and his Warriors prevented Hogan from interfering in the match.  In a dominating finish, Undead Warrior nails Batista with the Last Ride and scores the final pin.  Undead Warrior is in the tournament for the CSWA World title – a title Hogan wrongfully stripped him of.  Undead Warrior stares at Hogan and drags his thumb across his neck.  Hogan’s eyes go wide for a brief moment and then he and his meat shield head to the back.  Undead Warrior, along with Bray and team, celebrated in the ring as the show comes to a close.

Thanks for reading.  There is definitely more to come so stay tuned.

HWF/CSWA Wrestling Newsletter 2014 – 07.06

Hello fans and welcome back to our latest show coming to you from Oklahoma City, OK.  The card today is action packed and with no Hulk Hogan on site (I think Brock scared the shit out of him), we can move right on to the matches.

The first match of the evening is Conan Jones vs Alexander Rusev.  This one only goes 2 minutes and sees Rusev get counted out after Reid Rothchild came down and hit the Bulgarian with a steel chair.  Reid said “How ‘bout them apples?” before he walked off.

Next up is a placement match between the CWO’s Pick and the Axe against the Cartel’s Mexicali Flyers.  The match goes 19 minutes with Pick and the Axe dominating the Cartel members.  The end came after Dirk Devon locked El Dragon Insano in a bearhug and then used that to pin him.  After the match, Tornado en Fuego hit multiple Tornado blasts on Pain in the Ass and eliminated them from the ring.  They were none too happy and I don’t think this one is over.

Up next is Ravishing Raquel taking on Natalya Neidhart for an upcoming shot at Gail Kim’s Women’s title.  The match went 15 minutes that saw Natalya get the win due to outside interference from Gail Kim.  The ref saw it but it was too late to stop the 3 count but after sending Gail from the ring, asked the two women if they wanted to continue.  Both said yes.  2 minutes later, Nattie is tapping out to the Ravishing Chickenwing.  Ravishing Raquel will go on to meet Gail Kim at a later date.

The next match is Prestige Inc vs A-Team for 6 man tag team placement.  This one goes 24 minutes which sees interference from the Bulgarian Alexander Rusev.  Rusev nailed Magnus with a chair and Aries capitalized on it after turning a front facelock into a pin.  Rusev took off after the attack to avoid any retaliation from Prestige Inc.

Our qualifying match is Big Show taking on Batista.  In 15 minutes, Big Show retains his spot after nailing a chokeslam.  Big Show remains in the CSWA while Batista remains in the HWF.

The main event of this show is Undead Warrior vs ???  Undead Warrior makes his way to the ring along with Bray Wyatt and waits for the challenger.  Music hits and it’s none other than the Viper, Randy Orton.  The ref is reading off of cue cards and says that GM Hulk Hogan has decreed that this match will be a best of 3 falls; 60 minute time limit.  GM Hogan (in the cue cards) says that Orton’s spot is not in jeopardy.  In 15 minutes, Undead Warrior hits the Last Ride and he’s up one fall.  The next fall goes 7 minutes and Orton takes control.  In the final few seconds, Orton is tossed out of the ring and Bray Wyatt nails Orton in the head with his HWF World title.  Orton gets counted out and Undead Warrior is one step closer to getting his title back. 

Thanks for reading.  We’ve heard that GM Hogan will be at the next event so stay tuned.

HWF/CSWA Wrestling Newsletter 2014 – 07.05

Hello fans and welcome back to our newsletter.  Today’s episode is pre-recorded from Dallas, TX.  The show begins with GM Hulk Hogan announcing that the Undead Warrior will in get a shot at regaining his title but he must face 2 current CSWA title qualifiers over the next 2 shows.  One loss and he is out of the running.  Those competitors will be announced later.

Today’s show is chock full of CSWA title qualifying matches.  The first kicking off today’s show is Christian taking on Daniel Bryan.  The match goes 9 minutes and Bryan (the underdog in this match) locks in the “Yes Lock” and gets Captain Charisma to tap out.  Daniel Bryan moves to the CSWA and Christian to the HWF.

The Women’s Champion Gail Kim come out to the ring.  She issues an open challenge to any female competitor in the back.  4 women come out – Ravishing Raquel, Spider Violet, ODB and Natalya Neidhart.  Gail says she will offer a title shot to the winner of these 4 women.  Hogan makes his way out and makes Raquel vs Violet and ODB vs Natalya.  The winner of these matches will meet at the next show and the winner of those will get the shot at Gail’s title.

The second match of the evening is Ravishing Raquel taking on Spider Violet.  In a quick 4 minute bout, Raquel locks Violet in the Ravishing Chickenwing and the Spider taps out.  Raquel moves up and Violet is out.

The 3^rd match is our second women’s match with ODB vs Natalya Neidhart.  In a crazy 12 minute match, we saw ODB hit Natalya with the Dirty Dozen but it is reversed and Nattie locks in the sharpshooter and ODB taps out.  Nattie will go on to face Raquel at the next show.

Our first title match is up next with X-Division champion Casey Jones taking on Goldust.  The first fall goes to the champ after he hit Goldust with an avalanche drop in just 6 minutes.  The second fall goes to Goldust after a 21 minute fight.  The third fall goes another 20 minutes and this time, Casey battled like a man on a mission.  Casey gets the 3^rd fall after hitting Goldust with a chairshot to the head.  Casey Jones retains his title.

We cut to the back where we see Reid and Raquel talking strategy for her next match against Natalya when Alexander Rusev runs in and attacks Reid.  The attack is short lived as Raquel hits Rusev with a chair and King Damian Sandow and Magnus run in and Rusev tucks his tail between his legs and takes off.  Reid yells back at him saying if he wants to get in the ring, all he has to do is ask.

Our next qualifying match is Samoa Joe taking on Ryback.  This match was such a waste as nothing happened.  30 seconds into the match, Joe and Ryback are battling on the outside of the ring.  Joe, the ring veteran, rolls back in the ring just as the ref counts to 10.  Samoa Joe gets the win via Countout.  Joe moves to the CSWA and Ryback to the HWF.

Hulk Hogan makes his way back out to the ring.  Hogan says that he has picked who Undead Warriors opponents will be but he makes the ‘executive decision’ to NOT say who.  He says that it needs to remain a mystery until the actual match takes place.  The fans boo and Hogan flips them off and leaves.

While in the back, Hogan says he wants to see more from Bully Ray and RVD so he tells both men to pick tag team partners and head to the ring.

Our second to last match is a tag team match with RVD and Bully Ray both picking tag team partners for this battle.  RVD comes out first and then introduces his partner -  the newly arrived RYBACK.  Bully makes his way out and then stops to introduce his partner – none other than DEVON DUDLEY!  The Dudley’s are back together.  The fans crazy pop.  Even though one of the greatest tag teams of all time – the Dudley’s – were back together, there was some obvious rust as Bully has been wrestling singles for some time.  RVD and Ryback were a well-oiled machine.  RVD and Ryback controlled the majority of the match until a 3D on RVD and Ryback brought that momentum to an end.  The Dudley’s did what they do best – double team -  and eventually put Ryback through a table to score the pin at the 24 minute mark.  The Dudley’s are HOT.  After the match, RVD nails Bully with a VanDaminator and Ryback hits a spear on Devon.  I think we have the makings of a great feud here.

The main event of the evening will be our blockbuster qualifying match.   Former World Champions Brock Lesnar and Rey Mysterio Jr will fight it out for a chance to win World title gold once again.  The time limit on this one was also extended to 30 minutes to give both men a solid chance.  Rey controlled the tempo of the match and his speed was more than a match for the brute force from Lesnar.  In 18 minutes, Rey gets the win after Brock was attacked by Bobby Lashley and Brock was counted out as he battled Lashley all the way to the back. 

In the back, Brock is going ape-shit again.  He storms into Hogan’s office and demands that Hogan put him and Lashley in a cage.  He says he will finish Bobby once and for all.  Hogan actually looked a little scared.

That’s all for now.  Stay tuned as the action is really heating up.

The feud between Brock Lesnar and Bobby Lashley is heating up. What type of specialty match should they have?

HWF/CSWA Wrestling Newsletter 2014 – 07.04

Hello fans and welcome back to our newsletter.  This episode’s show took place in Houston, TX.  GM Hulk Hogan started off the show and gave props to Psycho Jack Hercules for doing such a fantastic job while he was out.   Hogan stated that he did in fact have a major announcement but that it would have to wait till later in the show.  First, he wanted to address the issue with Alberto Del Rio.  He calls Alberto out and berates him for losing the title.  Alberto stood there and took the abuse.  After Hogan was done with his rant, Alberto said he would do better next time…promise.  Hogan excused him.  “Now, on to other business.  I do really want what is best for business so I’m willing to let 2 HWF’rs have a stand off and one of them will head back to the CSWA and will be entered into the World title tourney.  Those two men will be in our main event for the evening but all the cowpokes here will have to wait to see who they are.  You damn rednecks don’t deserve any better.”  The crowd got so angry that they started throwing stuff at the GM who had to make a hasty retreat or be covered in beer and nachos.

Santino Marella makes his way out and into the ring.  “It is with sadness and heaviness of heart that I must announce my retirement from the sport.  I have enjoyed my time in the CSWA and HWF  and a little sad that I didn’t win more titles but what can you do, huh?  Thank you everyone…”  He is cut off as Hogan makes his way out but is hiding behind a bunch of security guards.  “Meat Shield, stay put.  Santino, you don’t get to decide when you are done; that is my job.  But I will give you one option brother.  You fight one more match.  If you win, you get to quit on your terms.  If you lose, you will be here FOREVER until I am done with you.  Your opponent will be this man…”  Hogan turns and out comes the bounty hunter Psycho Jack Hercules.  Jack shakes Hogan’s hand and makes his way to the ring.  “Oh, one more thing…No DQ.”  Out comes the A-Team and Pick and the Axe and they all head to the ring and surround it.

In just over 12 minutes into our first match, Santino nails a battering ram and pins Psycho Jack.  This of course brings in the entire CWO and they all beat down on Santino.   Prestige Inc run down to the ring along with the Dust Brothers – Goldust and Stardust.  The CWO is cleared out of the ring and the faces help Santino to his feet.  He thanks the fans again and leaves with his entourage. 

In the back, Hogan is pissed about Prestige Inc and the Dust Brothers interfering.  Hogan puts a match together for the Dust Brothers vs Pick and the Axe with the winner moving up the tag team rankings.

Our next match is a qualifier for the CSWA World title.  First out comes Kevin Steen followed by the All American Jack Swagger.  Steen controlled the entire match but could not keep Swaggers shoulders to the mat for a full 3 seconds.  In the last few seconds, Steen hits a moonsault and connects but the time limit expires before the count is completed.  Swagger remains in the HWF but Steen also moves over.

Next up is Diva’s Champion Cactus Jackie taking on Fusion Valentine in a non-title match.  In only 2 ½ minutes, Fusion gets counted out and Jackie gets the Countout win.

Since the last match was so short, Hogan added a new match which was next.

Hogan picked two people at random and sent them out.  There were Robbie E and Bran-Don-Goh.  We hadn’t seen B in a while so it’s good he’s getting some air time.  If that last match wasn’t short enough, this one was even shorter…only 2 moves executed.  Robbie E hits a kneelift to the gut and B executes a stepover toehold facelock.  Robbie E taps out immediately.  Bran-Don-Goh gets the win in only :45 seconds.

The next match on the card is another qualifier.  This one has Bully Ray vs Wade Barrett.  This one also went the distance with the match ending in a time limit draw.  Barrett stays put and Bully Ray moves to the HWF.

Following this was the match Hogan made up earlier in the evening – Pick and the Axe taking on the Dust Brothers.  Goldust and Stardust made their way to the ring first followed by Hogan’s cronies.  In 17 minutes, Dirk catches Stardust in a Tama bearhug and just as Cody was passing out, Dirk dropped him and made the pin.  Pick and the Axe move up in the tag team rankings.

Our second to last match is a title match with Intercontinental Champion Dolph Ziggler taking on Professor Cobra.  In 2 minutes, Dolph hits the Zig Zag bulldog on Cobra for the first fall.  7 minutes later, the Professor hits the King Cobra diving headbutt to lock in the second fall.  The third fall was controlled by Ziggler and in 28 minutes, hits a handstand headlock for his best of 3 falls and is still the Intercontinental Champion.

Hulk Hogan comes out one more time with his meat shield and says he considers allowing the Undead Warrior to participate in the tourney but only if he can beat 2 men of Hogan’s choosing.  This of course brings out the Undead warrior and Bray Wyatt.  Undead Warrior agrees to the stipulation.  Hogan says he will announce who Undead Warrior’s opponents will be at a future show.  Undead Warrior tells Hogan that it is not over between the two of them and Hogan will pay the ultimate price…he just doesn’t know it yet.  Bray laughs and Hogan looks on nervously.

Tonight’s Main Event will allow one man to potentially move back to the CSWA: Bobby Lashley vs Chris Jericho and for this one, the time limit is extended to 30 minutes and is no DQ.  This one is disappointingly short.  4 minutes.  We do see interference from Brock who nails Bobby Lashley with a steel chair.  He throws Lashley back in where Jericho reluctantly takes advantage and locks Lashley in the Walls of Jericho.  Bobby taps out.  Chris Jericho gets to move to the CSWA and is now part of the World title tourney.

Thanks for reading.  Stay tuned as there is more to follow.

HWF/CSWA Wrestling Newsletter 2014 – 07.03

Hello fans and welcome back to our newsletter.  Today’s show took place from the home of the Saints – New Orleans, LA.  The show begins with a PA announcement that GM Hulk Hogan is not there.  There is a huge eruption from the fans.  I guess they liked that announcement.  The curtains part and out comes Psycho Jack Hercules…in a suit.  He is there running the show in Hogan’s absence.  He announces that tonight, there will be two new hires making their debut as well as 3 title matches taking place.  This gets a minor pop from the fans.  “Also, I, acting GM, will be in action tonight against Bo Dallas.  Dallas, you can’t keep running from me so tonight, you have no choice – get in the ring or lose your job.  It’s that simple.  Also, at our next show, GM Hulk Hogan will be making a major decision and will unveil it at that time.” 

Music hits and out walks Ravishing Raquel.  Psycho Jack looks irritated that he was interrupted.  Raquel heads to the ring.  “The Ravishing One is in the house!”  Pop from the crowd.  “You know, I told Cactus Jackie to bring her best game and she did and she walk out with my title but no one hit wonder is going to keep my title so I am officially challenging Jackie to a rematch.”  Cactus Jackie walks out and stays on the stage.  “Really, now you are calling me out?  Really?  Listen Raquel, you had your time in the spotlight and now it is time for you to fade away like a sunset.  You think you are a top contender for this title?  Well, you’re not.  I am the Diva’s Champion now.  You need to earn a spot to even be in the same ring as me.”  Raquel interrupted “You really think you can keep me from taking my title back?  Good luck to you.  In fact, I say you and me in a non title match right now and I’ll show you what a real champion looks like.”  Psycho Jack interrupted.  “Listen, the two of you.  You do not get to make matches. Jackie, you get to defend your title at the next show.  Leave now.”  Cactus Jackie smirks and walks off.  “Raquel, you want a fight so bad, your opponent is on her way to the ring.  Now.”

The first match of the night is Ravishing Raquel taking on Angelina Love.  Love immediately attacks Raquel and controls the match until at the 7 minute mark, Raquel reverses a camel clutch and locks in the Ravishing Chickenwing.  Love is screaming in pain and taps out.  Ravishing Raquel gets the win.  Jackie runs down and attacks Raquel but the Ravishing one immediately gets the upper hand and Jackie bails.  Raquel calls for her to return to the ring but Jackie backs up the ramp shaking her head no.  I’m sure there will be more to this saga.

The second match on the card is the debut of new wrestler Conan Jones.  Conan comes out to a very mixed reaction from the crowd as they don’t know how to take him.  His opponent comes out and it is Brad Maddox.  Maddox makes his way down and begins jaw jacking and flipping off the fans.  I guess this means Conan is a good guy.  The match goes 10 minutes with both men holding an advantage.  The end came after Conan executed his specialty move the Bulldog and hooked the leg for the 1,2,3.   Conan celebrates with some of the fans at ringside before making his way to the back.

Match #3 is our first title match of the evening with Internet Media Champion and 719 Cartel member Malo Leche de Mantequilla taking on Prestige Inc member Magnus.  The first fall favors the champion after Malo puts Magnus down with a snap suplex in 7 minutes.  The second fall begins and Magnus takes it to the champ.  At the 8 minute mark, Magnus locks in the sharpshooter and Malo taps out.  The 3^rd fall begins and goes a full 6 minutes with neither man getting a solid lead over the other.  The end came after Magnus catches Malo in a spinning Samoan drop and makes the cover.  Magnus gets the win and becomes the NEW Internet Media Champion.  Malo sulks to the back.

Mark Henry makes his way out to the booing from the fans.  Henry does his best to ignore them but they end up getting under his skin.  Henry’s opponent comes out and it is Shield member Roman Reigns.   This one has Mark Henry cheat every step of the way.  At the 12 minute mark, he finishes off Roman Reigns.  But there was a serious injustice done here and that can only mean one thing…that’s right, you guessed it.  From the crowd comes the Caped Crusader.  The Crusader tries to explain to the ref and, uh oh, Henry sees him.  Henry jumps out of the ring and grabs the Crusader and hurls him into the ring.  Henry is shouting at him “Stop interfering in my matches!”  He picks up the Crusader and nails a huge powerslam.  He then goes to the top rope and nails a huge splash.  HOLY CRAP.  He’s flattened the Crusader.  Refs run out and get Henry out of the ring while medics attend to the super hero.

The next match is for the North American title with A-team champ Alberto Del Rio defending the title against Prestige Inc member his royalness King Damian Sandow.  The first fall takes 30 minutes to get to as neither would relent.  Sandow scores the pin after hitting a spinning elbow drop.  Another 23 minutes later and another spinning elbow drop and we have a NEW North American Champion – King Damian Sandow.  Internet Media Champion and fellow Prestige member Magnus comes out to celebrate with his Lordship and the fans.  Both men leave together.

In the back, the Caped Crusader is being loaded into an ambulance.  As he is loaded up, Mark Henry charges the ambulance and in the second HOLY SHIT moment of the evening, he KNOCKS it over.   

Newcomer Alexander Rusev from Bulgaria makes his way to the ring.  He gets on the mic and of course, starts to insult the US.  He really gets the fans irate when he said “Is there no one who is man enough to stand up to Rusev?  Are there NO men here?”  A voice comes across the mic “Here’s one”.  Out from behind the curtain comes…The Elitist Reid Rothchild.  Reid has a mic in hand and makes his way to the ring.  “Oh, there are men here…and some women who can surely kick your ass.  You’re not here an hour and you are already insulting us?  What is your defect?”  Rusev answered “I am the MAN and a man who will put down any so called challenge from these ‘superstars’.  No one can stop me.”  “Really” Reid began “No one?  Maybe step in the ring with me…If not me, I have a couple of friends who’d be up to a fight.”  Out comes new champions King Damian Sandow and Magnus.  “You have your pick.  Care to make a moment?”  Sandow and Magnus stood outside the ring and Rusev sneered and began to back off.  Reid turned around to leave the ring and Rusev attacked him.  Sandow and Magus jumped in the ring but Rusev bailed like a coward.  Rusev left jaw-jacking and eventually all of Prestige left the ring to make time for the main event.

Our second to last match is acting GM Psycho Jack Hercules taking on (finally) Bo Dallas.  Dallas was still very reluctant to get in the ring with (a hitman) him.  The match goes a whopping 27 minutes and after hitting a crazy powerbomb, Psycho Jack gets the win.  He is booed out of the ring and he leaves a very unhappy customer.

The main event of the evening is for the HWF World Heavyweight title.  The challenger, the Miz, comes out first.  He is then followed by the HWF World and Undisputed Heavyweight champion Bray Wyatt.  Bray is accompanied by Wyatt’s Warriors except for the Undead Warrior.  Bray gets in the ring.  “Miz, Miz, Miz.  Sister Abigail has spoken and she says that Bray Wyatt will be walking out of here with my title intact.  There really isn’t much you can do now.  And, by the way, all my title matches are specialty – in case you didn’t know.”  Miz shrugs and ends up attacking Bray.  The ring is cleared so the match can begin.  The first fall takes 24 minutes to finish and Bray beat the SNOT out of the Miz.  Miz could not get much in the way of offense in.  Bray pressed and slammed Miz into the 3^rd row.  He made the cover to get the win.  The next fall was a short 5 minute match that saw Miz bleed one minute in.  Miz managed to hit the skull crushing finale twice but could not get the pin.  Bray managed to climb to the balcony and nailed a suicide dive onto Miz.  The ref counted 1…2…3 and Bray Wyatt retains the title.  Bray celebrated in the ring with the Warriors as the show came to a close.

Thanks for reading.  Stay tuned for more.

HWF/CSWA Wrestling Newsletter 2014 – 07.02

Hello Fans and welcome back to our latest show recorded live in front of the Little Rock, Arkansas crowd.  We are informed that GM Hulk Hogan and his CWO will be on hand to make an announcement.  The show starts off with Hogan and the CWO (the A-Team, Pick and the Axe) all make their way to the ring.  Hogan starts off.

“The Hulkster is in the house.  First, I want to address my CWO.  A-Team, you are supposed to be the elite group and yet you managed to lose the 6 man titles.”  Hogan glares at Aries, Del Rio and Cesaro and they all lower their heads.  Next, Hogan approaches Pick and the Axe.  “Pick and Axe, you were the World tag team champions and you lost those belts.  However, Dirk, you still have the European title.  I expect you to do our team proud.  Do NOT let us down.” Dirk approached Hogan and said “You have nothing to worry about Hulk.  The European title isn’t going anywhere.”  Hogan took the mic.  “We will have more qualifying matches to determine who the new CSWA World Champion will be.  Without further ado, let’s get this show off the ground.”

The first match on the card is for ranking for the tag team championship.  This is the Mexicali Flyers taking on the team of Rybaxel (Ryback and Curtis Axel).  In just a hair under 15 minutes, the Flyers get the win after Tornado en Fuego hit Ryback (or Cryback as he kept calling him) with an Insuguri.

We cut to the back and see Bray Wyatt and the Warriors.  Undertaker (who’s back is to the camera) tells Hogan that he will pay for stripping him of the CSWA World title.  Bray steps in and says that his warriors need to be united and that they must all reflect the Warrior spirit. With that, Bray says that Undertaker will now be known as the Undead Warrior.  The Undead Warrior turns around and his face is now covered in black and white streaked makeup.  Creepy.

We go back to the ring for our second match which RVD taking on Randy Orton for is considered placement in the CSWA World title tourney.  This was a very short match that saw Randy get a countout win in just under 2 minutes after Bully Ray ran down and clocked Rob with a steel chair resulting in the count out.  Randy Orton moves to the CSWA and Rob moves to the HWF.

The third match on the card is Dirk “the Pick” Devon defending the European title against “Black Machismo” Jay Lethal.  Lethal scores the first pin in 10 minutes after nailing Dirk with a diving double axe handle smash. 

The second fall goes to Dirk who basically squeezing the life out of Lethal with a Tama Bearhug, dropped Jay and covered him for the pin.  Before the 3^rd fall could begin, The Axe came out to join his tag team partner.  Axe sat at ringside.  Lethal controlled the first part of the match until Axe rammed Jay’s head into the steel post.  Dirk took over but could not capitalize on a pin.  At the 18 minute mark, after the ref had been knocked down a few moments before, Axe jumped up on the apron and called for Dirk to throw him over.  Dirk tried but it was reversed and Axe, not paying attention to what he was doing, nailed Dirk with the Axe.  Lethal recovered and hit a hip toss just as the ref was recovering. Lethal made the cover and the ref counted 1…2….3.  Jay Lethal is now the NEW EUROPEAN CHAMPION.  He grabbed his title and took off before Axe could do any damage.  There was a bit of yelling done on Dirk’s part at the Axe but eventually shook his hand and they left.

Backstage, Hogan met up with Pick and the Axe.  “What the HELL was that Brother?  Pick, you said you wouldn’t let me down, brother.  What the HELL do you call that?”  Pick took a deep breath and slowly let it out.  “Hulk, I know I let you down but I can promise you that it will never happen again.  The Pick and the Axe were not on the same page tonight but we are now and once we are back in contention for a title, we will be bringing it home to the CWO.”  Hulk put his hand on his chin and rubbed his jaw.  “Ok Brother, I can understand having an off day.  That fateful day back in Wrestlemania 6 when I lost my title to the Ultimate Warrior, well, brother, I wasn’t exactly at my best so I get it.  I have faith in the two of you BUT if you want to remain as part of the CWO, I expect this to never happen again.”  Axe steps up “It won’t…brother.”  Hogan gives him a funny look and then walks off.

The next match for CSWA World title consideration is Bobby Lashley taking on Kane.  This was another short match that saw more interference. At the 2 ½ minute mark, Kane tosses Bobby out of the ring.  Down runs Brock Lesnar who picks up Lashley and nails an F-5 on the floor.  He then leaves and Bobby gets counted out.  Kane moves to the CSWA and Bobby to the HWF.

Our next match is 719 Cartel members and World Tag Team Champions VamChango taking on Beer Money (James Storm and Bobby Roode) in a non-title match.  The champs were looking golden tonight.  In just over 8 minutes, Vampiro hits Roode with the 5 point palm explosion and secures the win for his team.

Our second to last match of the night is Jeff Hardy taking on the Celtic Warrior Sheamus.  In 11 minutes, Jeff Hardy nails a dropkick from the top rope securing a spot for the CSWA World Title tournament.  Sheamus now moves to the HWF.

We are now on to our Main Event which will be for the US title.  Champion Christian takes on challenger Christopher Daniels.  The first fall at the 11 minute mark goes to the Fallen Angel after hitting Christian with the Angel’s Wings.  It only takes 7 minutes but Christian secures the second fall after hitting Daniels with a Springboard Plancha.  We are down to the final fall when backstage workers run down and start pulling stuff out from under the ring.  It’s the makings of a steel cage.  The ringside announcer is told that the 3^rd and final fall will take place in the cage.  It’s finally up and the 3^rd fall begins.  This fall goes 22 minutes and sees both men take a temporary advantage.  The end came after Daniels hit a double jump moonsault putting Christian down for the count.  Daniels scaled the cage wall and dropped to the floor giving him the win and becomes the NEW US CHAMPION.  Congratulations to the new champs tonight.

Stay tuned as there is surely more to follow.

HWF/CSWA Wrestling Newsletter 2014 – 07.01 – fallout from the Bash

Hi fans and welcome back to our newsletter.  Man, the Bash at the Beach was just amazing.  We have a new Undisputed Champion in Bray Wyatt and Undertaker is now part of Wyatt’s Warriors.  He is still the CSWA World Champion so it will be interesting to see what Hogan does about that.  Speaking of the Undertaker, he was really in rough shape after getting “electrocuted” in the Chamber of Horrors match so I’m not sure when we’ll see him again.   It will be interesting to see if the Undertaker’s addition to Wyatt’s Warriors will be a help or a hindrance.

We are now coming to you from a taped event that took place in Montgomery, AL.  Due to certain time constraints, this show is only 2 hours.

GM Hulk Hogan starts off the show and mentioned that there would be a roster shake up. I can only imagine that means he will be doing trades between the HWF and CSWA.  We were also told that the HWF and CSWA would continue their tour of the south with matches taking place in various cities alone the southern part of the US.  We were also told that the Clash of the Champions PPV in August would only be comprised of title matches and that every title would be defended…some maybe more than once.  Because of that, the Clash will be a 2 day event.  More on that to follow.

Hogan then declares that since Undertaker is now a member of Wyatt’s Warriors that he cannot be the CSWA World Champion anymore and strips Undertaker of the CSWA world title. 16 men from the roster will participate in a tournament to crown a new World Champion.  He mentions that he will include wrestlers from the HWF and if they win their respective match, they will move to the CSWA and the loser will move to the HWF.  There will be many qualifying matches to get it narrowed down to the final 16 but there will be a major stipulation.  Matches will have a 20 minute time limit. If it goes to the time limit, both men will be eliminated.  Hogan puts over his CWO as the first 5 members participating in the World title tournament (Austin Aries, Antonio Cesaro, Alberto Del Rio, Dirk ‘the Pick’ Devon and the Axe) and they will get automatic entry; they will not have to fight for their spot.  These 5 will be exempt from the roster trade even if they lose since they are members of the CWO and not active HWF or CSWA performers. 

Before he can continue, new music hits (BREAK THE WALLS DOWN) out comes the returning Chris Jericho.  Chris makes his way to the ring.  “Hello Jerichohollics!  Y2J is back and what better way to make a splash is to throw my name in for a shot at the World Title.”  Hogan steps up “You know Brother, only the best can play so if you really want in, go lace up your boots and get ready because his match is coming up quick.” Jericho leaves to the cheering of the fans and Hulk departs without much interaction (except he did flip off a few fans). 

The first match that will act as a qualifier will be AJ Styles taking on Mike Bennett.  In 17 minutes, AJ gets the win after hitting the Styles Clash.

The second qualifying match is the returning Chris Jericho taking on Big E Langston.  Jericho looked a little rusty but soon found his groove. As they were getting close to the time limit, Hogan came out and said that this match is now a no DQ.  With that, Pick and the Axe ran down and attacked both men.  They brought them to the outside of the ring where the beat down continued until the time limit expired.  Both men are out of the running and Big E is now on his way to the HWF.

The third match is John Cena taking on Mr. Anderson.  It was funny as the fans chanted “asshole” but we’re not quite sure who it was directed to.  Cena gets the win after the F-U in 12 minutes.  Mr. Anderson is now moving to HWF and Cena is moving to the CSWA.

Match #4 is our Olympic Hero Kurt Angle taking on the Miz.  Angle gets the quick win after Miz who had been tossed out of the ring 3x in 6 minutes decided to just walk out. 

We cut to the back where a vignette is taking place with HWF World and Undisputed Champion Bray Wyatt and his Warriors.  They are standing there with a lifesize cardboard cutout of the Undertaker representing his spot on the team.  Wyatt speaks about the warriors’ loss to the A-Team and that Sister Abigail had predicted wrong even though she predicted his win.  Where does the fault lie?  Bray says that the Warriors can redeem themselves as the A-Team declared they wanted another ‘easy’ match.  He tells the Warriors to get ready to go to the ring and tells them to do Sister Abigail proud.

Tonight’s Main Event is for the 6 Man tag team titles with the CWO members the A-Team defending against Wyatt’s Warriors.  The A-Team was totally unprepared and the Warriors ran all over them.  15 minutes later, Super Warrior nails the Super Powerslam on Aries to get the first fall.  23 minutes later, Del Rio nails the Warrior of Truth with a 5 kick combination to get the second fall.  The third round totally favored the champs.  At the 18 minute mark, the lights go out and turn blue.  A gong sounds and out comes the Undertaker.  He’s moving towards the ring at a pretty good pace for a guy who was ‘electrocuted’.  He gets in the ring and immediately picks up Centurion.  It looks like he’s going to throw him out of the ring but hurls him at Antonio Cesaro instead.  Cesaro falls out of the ring.  Undertaker follows him out.  Taker then chokeslams Cesaro on the Spanish announce table and it collapses.  Austin Aries tries a suicide dive but Taker catches him and nails a tombstone piledriver.  Super Warrior then takes out Alberto Del Rio.  The ref makes the count and reaches 10.  The A-team are counted out and the win and the titles go to the NEW CHAMPIONS – Wyatt’s Warriors!!!  Bray Wyatt comes out and starts singing “I’ve got the whole world in my hands.”  He continues to sing while the new champs and Undertaker stand tall in the ring.

That is all for now.  Stay tuned for more action.
