Hello fans and
welcome to another installment of HCW’s Phoenix Heat show. As pyro goes off kicking off tonight’s show,
we cut back to the office of the GM where Ruth Heartless is talking to the
Banker. The Banker confirms he will be
Ruth’s champion in defending her position as GM. He comments that he’s beaten Bull before and
this one will be no different. He
questions if there was any announcement yet about who Bull will have in his
corner. Ruth says nothing as of yet but
she expects the master of the bulls*it to make his choice known tonight.
We head to the
ring for our first match of the evening.
First, the familiar jingle of the ice cream truck sounds and out comes
the King of Cones Magnum Kone to a big pop from the crowd. Magnum makes his way down to and around the ring
dispensing treats for the kids. He
finishes and gets into the ring. The music
is abruptly shut off and we hear “No one wants to hear this crap” and out comes
Col. Samuel Flagg. Flagg has a mic in
hand and begins mocking both the fans and Magnum. “Just another poser who
thinks he can be a wrestler. No one
wants you here Kone so go back and crawl under that rock you came from.” Magnum stands tall in the ring. “Well, I guess I’ll have to do something
about that” Flagg says and drops the mic and heads to the ring. He hits the ring attacking Magnum off the bat
and getting the advantage. He attempted
to cheat when going for the pin by either putting his feet on the ropes or
grabbing a handful of tights. At the 15
min mark, El Chango comes out and Flagg is distracted. Flagg begins yelling at El Chango who remains
on the ramp. Flagg turns around only to
get whipped into the corner and squished by the Ice Cream Sandwich (splash). Flagg falls to the mat and Magnum makes the
cover getting the 1-2-3. Magnum Kone
gets the win and the fans pop loudly.
Flagg rolls out of the ring. El
Chango nods to Magnum and then leaves.
Flagg makes his way to the back as Magnum celebrates with the fans for a
moment before heading back on his own.
(15 min)
We head backstage
where Catalina Harper approaches the Anytime/Anywhere Champion ‘Sassy’ Maxine
DeVito. Maxine is quick to her feet but
doesn’t see a ref around. “Relax”
Catalina says. “I’m not here for your
title but wanted to offer to be ‘security’ for you to help protect you and your
title from the unsavory slops they have around here.” Maxine thinks about it for a moment and says
“You’re hired”. The two shake
hands. They walk out of the room only to
run into a ref. Maxine looks around only
to get an attempted roll up by the Crocodile Hunter. Maxine kicks out and Catalina picks Croc up
and body slams him hard on the cement floor.
Maxine picks him up and hits the Sass Attack and makes the cover to get
the 1-2-3. Maxine gets another W in the
win column. She and Catalina leave in a
hurry.
In the interview
area, Master Bull is talking about taking on the Banker again. Walking into the shot is Davis ‘the Hoff’
Hoffmeister. Davis says he is offering
to be in Master Bull’s corner in his match against the Banker. Bull accepts and the two shake hands.
We head back to
the ring. First, Kimberly Kiccsass comes
out and is booed as she makes her way down to the ring. She flips off a few of the fans and gets into
the squared circle. She jaw jacks with
the fans until the music changes and out comes everyone’s favorite soccer mom –
Violet Valkyrie. Violet makes her way
down slowly and methodical. She knows
that Kimberly expects her to expend a lot of energy so when she doesn’t,
Kimberly seems confused. Violet takes
her time and enters the ring slowly. She
removes her jacket and the match begins.
Kimberly was expecting something entirely different and that worked in
Violet’s favor. Violet outwrestled
Kimberly and it was clear who the better competitor was. Violet went to the top rope and Kimberly
tried to arm drag her from the top but Violet held on. A punch to the gut by Kimberly and this time
she arm dragged Violet from the top rope but as she came down, she grabbed onto
Kimberly locking in a triangle choke. They
landed in the center of the ring and with no way to make it to the ropes, Kimberly
tapped out. Violet gets the win and the
fans pop loudly. Violet asks for a mic
and then says that as the longest reigning (former) champion, she is entitled
to a rematch and she dictates that she wants it at the Supershow. The fans pop at the announcement and then she
leaves. (14 min)
Wilber Townsend is
backstage wearing his creepy looking mask.
He says that Anthony and Leon will be in tag team action tonight and
that allows him to be in singles competition.
Wilber says he’s heading to the ring any anyone in the back with any
****s that wants a match will be treated to an ass kicking. “Follow the buzzards; they will bring you
home” Wilber says as he walks off.
The lights go out
and a single lantern swinging on a pole moves towards the ring. Once there, the lantern ceases movement and
the lights come up. Wilber is there
dressed in his freakish attire. He
enters the ring to boos from the fans and goes to sit in the far corner waiting
to see who will answer his challenge.
Next, royal music begins to play and out comes our King ‘Red Hot’ Lucas
Johnston. The crowd pops for him but
it’s not as loud as it used to be. King
Lucas and Wilber have a history dating back to 2017 when Wilber eliminated
Lucas for the opportunity to become King (defeating then King CJ). Lucas watches with a wary eye keeping an eye
on Townsend but he didn’t see the attack from behind with the (almost zombie
like) Anthony Boom and Leon Teremoto rushing in from the crowd. They collectively beat down Lucas until their
competitors for the evening TV Champion Drew the Canadian Love Machine and ‘the
Hoff’ Davis Hoffmeister ran out to chase Leon and Anthony away. The ref checked with his Lordship and he said
he wanted to continue. The beatdown had
taken its toll on Lucas but he still managed to go 18 minutes. Wilber hammered Lucas in the back with some
devastating blows and Wilber was able to get the 3 count. Wilber via his cronies, was able to secure a
win tonight. King Lucas was able to make
it to the back under his own power. (18
min)
Tommy Lightning is backstage shooting off his
mouth but then TNT walks by. Tommy took
a cheap verbal shot at TNT but TNT was on him like lightning grabbing him by
the collar and challenging him to a match tonight. TNT put Tommy down and said “I’ll see you in
the ring.” Tommy looked a little
terrified.
TNT comes out
first for the next match to a nice pop from the crowd. He makes his way down and gets into the
ring. He calls for Tommy to join him. Tommy reluctantly makes his way out but not
under his own power but by the line of security who won’t let him run off. They herd Tommy towards the ring but after a
brief delay, Tommy finally got in the ring.
Tommy got in two good shots at the beginning of the match but TNT then
took over controlling the pace of the match but just barely. As the match wore on, TNT began running out
of steam and Tommy took over. He didn’t
have much to go on but he was successful in making it to the 20 min time
limit. Once the bell rang signaling the
end of the match via draw, Tommy took off but kept running his mouth up the
ramp. He must have said something as TNT
all of a sudden got heated and raced after Tommy who now bolted like a streak
of lighting hightailing it from a future beatdown. (20 min draw)
Backstage, Ghee
Buttersnaps and Ovaltine Jackson are being interviewed before their tag team
title match tonight. Ghee thanks the
Steel Curtain for still allowing them to get the next shot even though they
lost to the Curtain (what team players).
Ovaltine says they will not waste the opportunity and will take the
match to the champs.
The bell sounds
kicking off our next match. First, the
lights go dim and Leon Teremoto and Anthony Boom come out carrying their
lanterns. Their (cult-ish) leader Wilber
Townsend follows them out. He
accompanies them to the ring and gives them some instructions and then goes to
sit at commentary. The music changes and
the fans pop as Davis Hoffmeister and the TV Champion Drew the Canadian Love
Machine make their way out to deafening cheers.
The duo interact with the fans and then climb into the ring to do
business. Once the match began with
Davis kicking things off, Wilber snuck over and knocked Drew off the apron and
handcuffed him to the steel post. This
meant that Davis was pretty much in a handicap match and as good as he is, the
numbers eventually overwhelmed him. At
the 10 minute mark, Davis was dropped by a spinebuster from Leon. By this time, the ref was able to get Drew
freed from the cuffs and he was able to make a last minute save but was sent
out of the ring by the ref. Boom gets
tagged in and mocks Drew from the outside.
He hurls Davis to the ropes and hits a Lou Thesz Press. Leon rushed over knocking Drew from the
apron. Boom makes the cover and gets the
3 count. Anthony Boom and Leon Teremoto
get the win much to this dislike from the fans.
Wilber joined his team in the ring and raised their arms high. The 6 Man champs (sans their belts) left the
ring. Drew checked on Davis and he
seemed to be ok. The team then
left. (12 min)
Backstage, the Tag
Team Champions Maximillian Redbeard and Superquake Ferguson are reading for
their match. They say that they have
respect for their opponents tonight but warns them not to underestimate them
like the Jacks did. Redbeard says that
the best team will win tonight.
It’s time for our
main event. First, Ghee Buttersnaps and
Ovaltine Jackson come out to a nice pop from the crowd. Once in the ring, the music changes and the
Tag Team Champions make their way to the ring.
They stop to take a picture with one fan before entering the ring. After handing their titles to the ref, the
match began. Ghee and Ovaltine put up a
good fight but the champs controlled the pace.
Halfway through, the challengers got some double teaming in that gave
them the slight advantage but the champs eventually regained control but just
barely. At the 20 minute mark, Redbeard
catches Ghee with a Knoggin Stomp and makes the cover to get the uncontested
1-2-3. Redbeard and Ferguson get the win
and retain their titles. After the match,
all 4 men shook hands in the ring. After
Ghee and Ovaltine left, the champs celebrated in the ring as the show came to
an end.
Once the cameras
stopped rolling, our local fans got a treat.
The Steel Curtain came out to a huge pop from the crowd. They made their way to the ring and met the
champs in the center of the squared circle.
Buzz held the briefcase up and the fans popped but Starbuck got a mic
and said that they wanted everyone to know, not just the champs that they will
cash in, not at the PPV but at the Supershow.
Buzz leaned in and said “Word”.
The fans popped huge again and Buzz and Starbuck left the ring without
altercation. The champs stayed to
interact with the fans as the show officially comes to an end.
Stay tuned; lots
more action to come.
