HCW Wrestling Newsletter 2018 #667 – Critical Mass PPV Day 1


Hello fans and welcome back to our newsletter.  We are proud to bring you Day 1 of HCW’s Critical Mass PPV.  Our three day extravaganza will host a whopping 18 total matches.  Each day is expected to have a 4 hour running time.  Each match will have a 30 minute time limit to ensure everyone gets done what needs to be except for the Hell in the Cell match between ‘Top Gun’ Justin Winger and his nemesis the Banker.  That match will be allotted 60 minutes.  The bad blood between the two has forced them into this match.  This will be it for them as they will be moved to separate rosters after their match.  The winner will be allowed to pick where they want to go (or stay).   Both GM’s missed it (probably something King Rad screwed up on) but the match between Taylor Bella and the Duchess was actually booked twice on the card so their match for today was cancelled and stepping up (the pros that they are) to fill the spot will be Madame Jade taking on Starr Vixen.

Pyro goes off and Day 1 of Critical Mass officially kicks off.  Making his way to the stage is GM Master Bull.  Bull thanks the fans from flying in from around the world to experience the electricity that is a major HCW event.  The show is completely sold out for all 3 days and he tells the fans that they made this happen.  They pop.  Bull reminds us that all the matches on the card will have 30 minute time limits except for the Battle Royal and the Hell in the Cell matches.  He says that he doesn’t want to waste any more of the fans’ time so it’s time to get this bad boy moving.  The fans pop again as more pyro goes off and our first match is ready to go.

The fans boo as the first team comes out.  It is the Smashers with their manager MJ.  The Smashers flip the fans off as they couldn’t care less about them.  Once in the ring, MJ raises their arms and the fans continue the assault of booing at them.  Their demeanor changes immediately as Ghee Buttersnaps and Ovaltine Jackson come out. They get a big pop from the crowd.  Unlike their opponents, they actually shake hands and high five with the fans as they make their way to ringside.   The Smashers attack them before they can even hit the ring and the ref has the bell rung starting this no-DQ match off.   Ghee and Ovaltine held their own for almost 20 minutes into the match but then outside interference from MJ swung things in his teams’ favor.  But try as they might, the Smashers could not get a pin.  Even after 3 minutes of double teaming on Ovaltine, he and Ghee were resilient.  We join the match at the 28 minute mark.

After 30 minutes, the match is declared a draw.

The first match of the evening comes to a draw finish but these two teams are not done.  They continue to fight all the way to the back much to the delight of the fans.  (30 min draw)

We head backstage for an interview from J C Dykes and the Unknown Assassin.  Dykes says that Phat Sol and the Unknown Assassin have come full circle.  Tonight, the two of them settle their differences once and for all but everyone knows that that means that tonight is Phat’s last night as a free man…free of the pain and suffering that the Unknown Assassin will inflict on him.  Tonight…if Phat Sol loses, he is out of HCW.  The Unknown Assassin leans over and drags his finger across his throat.  Dykes begins to laugh hysterically.

Elsewhere backstage, Phat Sol is ready for his promo.  He acknowledges that yes, he did agree to put his career on the line but there was method to his madness.  He also knows that the Unknown Assassin’s contract had written into it that if he is not successful in his match at tonight’s show, he and his ass-hat of a manager will be out of a job.  He said it was a risk he was willing to take.  Tonight, with the fans behind him, Phat will finally rid HCW of the Unknown Assassin sending him back to Parts Unknown.

It’s time for our next bout with is the Ladies Battle Royal.  All of the ladies including the Ladies Champion will be taking part in this.  Once all the ladies made their way down, it actually went down pretty quick.

Kimberly Kiccsass (f) wins the Critical Mass Ladies Battle Royal!!!

Kimberly Kiccsass gets the win but it is short lived as someone from the audience runs in and attacks her.  We don’t know who she is as her face is covered in zombie-like makeup.  She crushes Kimberly in the corner and beats her down.  She drapes Kimberly’s arms over the top topes and then she rushes to the other side of the ring bouncing off the ropes and BLASTS Kimberly with a huge dropkick that sent Kimberly over the top rope and right out to the floor.  She then takes off back through the crowd as security and medics swarm the ring.  Medics tend to Kimberly and get her on a stretcher and take her to the back.  I’m sure that at some time we will find out who that woman is.

Starr Vixen is backstage and she says that is ready for her match with Madame Jade.  The two of them have been given a chance to shine and steal the show.  She knows that the two of them were last minute add ons but they will show management why they shouldn’t be overlooked.

Madame Jade is also backstage and she says that Starr is one of the toughest ladies in the locker room and they will show the world that the last minute additions to the card will prove to be the best.  Sit back and enjoy the show.

It’s time for the next match.  First, the Unknown Assassin and his manager J C Dykes come out and they have to make the walk down to the ring unprotected as it is no longer part their contract, they make their way down as the fans hurl all kinds of debris at them.  Once they get to the ring, UA and Dykes begin pulling out all sorts of tables, ladders and chairs for the match that is about to begin.  Music hits and out comes Phat Sol.  The fans pop huge for him and he makes his way down to the ring.  The Unknown Assassin and Dykes continue to set their props up as Phat climbs each turnbuckle corner to an even bigger pop from the crowd.  This TLC match has a lot riding on it not to mention that one of the two of them will have their HCW career come to a screeching halt.  The Unknown Assassin enters the ring and this one is ready to go.  As soon as the bell rings, the two go right at it.  They managed to use ladders and chairs in ways most people would not have thought.  Each of them with through the tables that at were set up at ringside.  Dykes even got involved throwing a fireball but he was actually too far away so it had little to no effect.  Phat then grabbed Dykes and put him through the Spanish announce table much to the fans delight.  In the chaos, Dykes dropped his flash paper.  Phat picked it up.  At the 23 minute mark, UA and Phat are battling off the top of a ladder.  UA bounces Phat’s head off the top of the ladder and he falls down hard to the mat.  Phat tried to muster some offense but UA either reversed or nullified it. UA hits the Fireman’s Carry Roll but only gets a 2 count.  The time limit got closer and closer and just before the 30 minute time limit expired, GM Master Bull came out and told the ref he was extending this match as long as it needs to go to reach a conclusion.  He’s not letting this one end on a draw.  We join the match now at the 31 minute mark.

The Unknown Assassin wins with a Fireman's Carry Roll over Phat Sol!!!

The Unknown Assassin gets the win much to the shock and dismay of the fans.  With this loss, Phat Sol is out of HCW.  The Unknown Assassin drags Phat into the ring and starts to mock him to his face.  Dykes joins in the fun in the ring and the two begin a verbal assault on Phat.  They don’t notice Phat making small moves.  All of a sudden, Phat reaches down and throws a fireball at both men.  Unknown Assassin barely got singed but Dykes took the brunt of the blast.  The fans pop as Unknown Assassin grabs Dykes and takes him to the back.  Phat remains behind to shake the fans hands before beginning the long walk to the back.  He stops on the stages, salutes the fans and then turns to leave.

Ice Dagger is backstage and says he will put out the high and mighty Texas Wildfire and take his title.  It’s HIS time now…Ice Dagger, Baby.  First the TV title…next…the world.

Texas Wildfire is backstage and basically says that Ice Dagger is a knock off of someone who is truly cold as stone and it starts with embarrassing Ice Dagger in the ring and will end with him quitting HCW because he can’t stand the heat.

Due to a booking issue (Taylor Bella vs the Duchess was booked twice), Madame Jade and Starr Vixen get a chance to shine.  First, Starr Vixen makes her way out to the ring and the fans pop huge for her.  Next, Madame Jade comes out and the fans also pop for her.  These two are ready to dazzle the fans.  They waste no time in getting this no dq/count out one underway. For about 21 minutes, these 2 put it all on the table and the fans weren’t disappointed.  There were lots of high spots and near falls but neither would give up.  Time began to run out for the two and they somehow turned up the heat.    We now join the match at the 27 min mark.

Starr Vixen gets the win and the fans pop.  After a brief celebration, she extends her hand to Madame Jade and helps her to her feet.  The two look wearily at each other and then embrace; pleased with the show they put on.  The two then left to the applause from the crowd.

The Banker is backstage with his manager Ruth Heartless.  Ruth tells the Banker to save his voice and strength for his match.  She tells everyone that the Banker will be cashing one final check and that will be the total destruction and annihilation of ‘Top Gun’ Justin Winger.  Winger will be through after tonight and they will finally be content getting him off the roster they’re on.  They would prefer getting him out of wrestling altogether but this too will have to suffice.

Our next match is ready to go.  This one will be for the TV title.  “Ice Dagger, baby” (a very bad ripoff of Vanilla Ice’s ripoff) plays and Ice Dagger makes his way out.  The fans boo him as he makes his way down to the ring.  He doesn’t care and flips them off.  Music changes and out comes Texas Wildfire.  The fans pop huge for him as the TV champ makes his way down to the ring.  Ice Dagger immediately attacks him on the outside of the ring trying to give himself an advantage.  He rams TW’s back against the steel post before rolling him into the ring.  The bell rings and ID locks in the Texas Cloverleaf and then grabs the ropes for leverage.  TW has no choice but to tap out.  Ice Dagger gets the win and becomes the NEW TV Champion.  His celebration is cut short when the Unknown Assassin and J C Dykes come out and announce they are cashing in the contract…NOW. 

The Unknown Assassin took control and owned Dagger for 6 minutes but Dagger began a comeback and we now join that match.

The Unknown Assassin and J C Dykes take the title and hold it high and walk to the back as the fans boo them.  The ref clears the ring as the Hell in the Cell begins to lower.

Backstage, ‘Top Gun’ Justin Winger is backstage for his promo.  He says that he and the Banker’s feud finally comes to an end tonight.  Tonight, the Banker’s gets his briefcase repossessed.  He’s ready…he hopes the Banker brings the best game as possible as once he’s done kicking the Banker’s ass, he doesn’t want to hear him complain that he had the sniffles or anything.  Winger walks off to head to the ring.

It’s time for our main event.  The Hell in the Cell has been lowered and secured (the crew worked super fast).  Music hits and the Banker along with his manager Ruth Heartless begin the walk to the ring.  The Banker is in “the zone” and he looks ready.   He climbs into the cell and just has tuned everything out.  He paces the ring.  Next, music hits and out comes ‘Top Gun’ Justin Winger.   The fans pop huge for him and he makes his way down.  He does spend a few minutes getting well-wishes from the fans.  He circles the huge cell once before going in.  The cage door is locked behind him and he enters the ring.

HCW Wrestling Newsletter 2018 #666 – Critical Mass Fanfest and Hall of Fame Ceremony


Hello fans and welcome back to our newsletter.  Today we recap the Critical Mass Fanfest and then the Hall of Fame ceremony.  The fanfest was packed to the rafters with fans coming in to see the HCW Superstars as well as our Hall of Famers.  As to be expected, all 4 honorees had the longest lines at their tables.  Southern Belle took pictures with almost every fan that asked for an autograph.  The Fiend, who has been a multiple time hardcore champion, signed a wide variety of weapons including steel chairs, baseball bats and the like.  CJ was…well, CJ.  The “hashtag” kept people waiting as he took his sweet time getting to his table.  The fans actually seemed to like that the best about him…that he was sort of a jerk.  He also took frequent bathroom breaks (or maybe it was for something else…this is Washington after all).  Finally, the Caped Crusader also posed for pictures and let us know that a portion of the proceeds from the autograph sales were going to a self-help charity website he helped create:  www.cheatersneverwin.godaddy.com (not a valid site) (and that goes for that KING cheat King Rad Gumbo).  

For the most part, the roster behaved themselves but the two biggest troublemakers were Dr. Red Fang w/ Ant Graham (he kept yelling “VAMPIRE LUNGES FOR YOU” at each person who asked for an autograph) and the Unknown Assassin and his manager the Honorable J C Dykes.  Dykes practically insulted everyone so it was a wonder people wanted anything from the duo. 

After the fanfest, everyone filed into the big room and the Hall of Fame ceremony began.  GM’s Max McGillicutty and Master Bull came out first to thank everyone for attending.  They were really proud of this year’s class.   As they began speaking about the inductees’ careers, King Rad Gumbo stormed up on stage.  He said that he should be the one doing this now as he had to carry that pathetic Tacoma Thunder roster just to make them shine.  Bull was not having any of it and had security come out to escort his royalness off stage.  Gumbo went kicking and screaming.  They did the recap and began by introducing the man who will introduce our first inductee – The Axe.

The Fiend (inducted by The Axe).  Axe comes out to a nice pop from the crowd and begins.  “The Fiend had been around before I came on board and my tag team partner the Pick (we were Pick and the Axe), we had a huge run with this man and his then tag team partner the Miz (they were the Miz-fits) and lots of great action took place.  He’s a multi-time Hardcore champion and is now a member of the 2018 Hall of Fame – the Fiend.”  The Fiend comes out and shakes hands with the Axe.  He goes up to the podium.

“I started back before HCW was what it is today.  I fought on two different rosters and fought the greatest that the WWE, ROH and TNA could send our way.  I beat a lot of them but had my fair share of losses too.   The Miz-Fit run had to be one of my favorite.  My title of choice was the Hardcore title.  Defending the title or fighting for it takes its toll on the body.  After my final run with the belt, it was apparent that I wasn’t going to make it much longer.  I will tell you, I went out doing what I loved and wouldn’t trade a minute of it for anything.  The fans who have followed since the HWF and CSWA and now HCW days, I thank you for coming out and cheering or booing – your choice – but you made the choice to come out anyway and for that, I thank you.”  The fans popped for him.  He let it simmer down.  “I want to thank the owners of HCW for letting me fulfill my dream of wrestling in a major federation against major talent.  I’m appreciative that you allowed me the chance to show what I could do.  I want to thank all my previous opponents for helping me tell stories that entertained the fans.  To the existing roster and for those to come…HCW is a fantastic place to shine and everyone should aspire to be that shining star.  Thank you.”   The fans give him a standing ovation as he walks from the stage.

Next, the Ladies Champion Ravishing Raquel is introduced and she is here to induct Southern Belle.  “Belle and I started roughly at the same time.  We both aggressively went after, what was back then, both the Women’s and Diva’s titles.  We both held the belts and did the division proud.  Belle was not one to rest on her laurels and was all business when the situation called for it.  She is and always will be an inspiration to the division.  Ladies and Gentlemen:  Southern Belle.

The Southern Belle
Belle comes out and gives Raquel a brief hug.  Raquel leaves and Belle takes her place at the podium.  “Thank you Raquel.  After being brought into the sport by Raquel, I immediately found my niche as part of the “Beautiful People” alongside Madison Rayne and Velvet Sky and the three of us wreaked havoc.  Once I had the confidence to stand on my own, the Women’s and Diva’s title was all I concentrated on.  There were lots of people who helped me out along the way including Fusion Valentine, Madison and Velvet, Raquel and countless others.  I defeated Raquel to win my first Diva’s championship as well as my first Women’s title.   I was also around when “Fabulous” Taylor Bella joined our ranks proving to be one of the toughest ladies in our division (she puts a hand to the side of her mouth and says “her manager though leaves a lot to be desired”).  The roster has grown and expanded and I’m excited to see new ladies showing up all the time.  Spoiler alert…I hear there is a new lady or two who will be joining HCW.  Watch for them as I’m sure, just as we all do, they will entertain.  That is what we do.  I hope you enjoyed watching us.  Thank you to the owners, general managers and of course, you the fans who made this all happen.”  Belle left the stage to a pop from the crowd. 

CJ
Introductions are made and the man with many names is introduced:  Conan Jones (aka #Conan Jones; #CJ; CJ; King CJ; DJ CJ Spice; the Hashtag) comes out to his music and the fans give him a welcome reception.   CJ makes his way to the podium dressed in his tux but as he approaches the podium, he pulls them off (the Velcro tear away kind) and he is dressed in his old ghetto clothes.  His pants are being worn so low that half his ass is showing.  Disrespectful. 



“you all came here tonight expecting me to bow to the establishment and I tell you…that is not me…not the hashtag.  whether it was as the hashtag or a rockin and rolling dj, I was sure to entertain…like only i, the hashtag would do…you probably want me to say thank you to those in the back but I have no one to thank but myself…whether it was carrying that extra baggage the ninja turtle casey jones or slap the stupid out of someone…I’m just being me…yes, it may seem to the uninformed that I may come across off as an ass but at the end of the day…I’m an entertainer and admit it or not, you were entertained.  I am thankful for my time as the center of your attention and that is something I will never forget.”  CJ began to walk away to a smattering of applause from the crowd but then returned to the podium.  “In all honesty,  it really was each and every one of you plus those in the back that made me the superstar I leave you as.  Both the character CJ and myself, well, more me because he really is a jerk, thank you.  We had fun.  Hashtag out.”  CJ drops the mic and leaves and now he gets the pop he really deserved.

The Caped Crusader
As C.J. completes his speech to a standing ovation from the fans, the spotlight drifts upwards to a tall, skinny caped figure who is slowly rappelling down from the ceiling. Holy Smokes! It's the Caped Crusader! The fourth and final entrant into this year's Hall of Fame! After landing on the stage and dismounting, the Caped Crusader slowly approaches the microphone, taking a moment to acknowledge the applause of the fans. He removes his mask for the very first time, before addressing the crowd:

"Thank you everyone, thank you so much. You know, when I first got started in this business, I was this tall, skinny fellow, with no real wrestling ability to speak of. Sure, I was quick as lightning, and I could run circles in the ring around my heftier opponents, keeping my distance and wearing them down, and, if I was really lucky and if my timing was just right, I could connect with my specialty move, the Wham-Bam-Pow punch! Granted, I didn't actually win too many matches... But I did take on some of the biggest and strongest Villains in the biz, and called them all out for their cheating ways... and in the process helped to restore some of the classic Goodness and former Glory of our cherished sport. You see, like many of you young fans, I too grew up watching wrestling on TV, and I was always enamored with the struggle of the Heroes vs. the Villains. It was a metaphor for the struggle between the Good and the Bad that exists in our own world. And sure, the Adam West-style Bat-man may not have been the most physically imposing of all the Bat-men, but that was exactly why I chose to emulate him - to make the point that ANY ONE of us average folk can be a Hero in our own lives, if we Commit to a Cause and if our Hearts are True. I see hope for our future in the smiling faces of the young fans gathered here today - you are the next generation of wrestlers and Heroes!!!"

The Caped Crusader pauses to smile and point to some of the young fans gathered around the stage.

"And now, I truly want to thank everyone involved with this great federation, and especially you, the Fans, for always making me feel welcome and for giving me a chance to live out my dream of being a Force for Good in the squared circle. I humbly accept your nomination to be the newest member of this year's Wrestling Hall of Fame!"

The crowd gives him a standing ovation, and after a few moments of acknowledging the fans, the Caped Crusader dons his mask one more time, rushes down to the ring with his cape fluttering behind him, climbs up to the top rope, and performs one last, magnificent flying body press thru the air down to the mat, before standing up, raising both arms in salute to the fans, and then darting back to the dressing room, no doubt to continue seeking out injustices and being a Force for Good in the world...

With the final speech completed, we head to the ring for our only match of the night.

First, music hits at Scarlett Phoenix makes her way out and the fans pop huge.  She high fives the fans as she makes her way down into the ring.  She gets into the ring and climbs each turnbuckle psyching up the crowd.  As she finished, the music changed and out comes El Gato Negro.  She comes out and she too gets a good pop from the crowd.  She however is all business and immediately makes a beeline for the ring.  She immediately goes face to face with Scarlett and tensions begin to flare.  GM Max McGillicutty comes out and he says that he wants these two to have all the time they need to settle this.  A lot is riding on this as the winner of the match gets the next title shot at the Ladies title.  As soon as the bell rings, this one is off with both giving no quarter. Scarlett connected with the Black Widow early on and that seemed to give her an advantage. The match ends up going a whopping 41 minutes.  We join the match at the 39 minute mark.
