HCW Wrestling Newsletter 2020 #857 (8/30/20) – Reign of Champions PPV (3 hour PPV)



Hello fans and welcome to our latest installment of the HCW Wrestling Newsletter.  Tonight, we are proud to present to you, from a sold out arena (you can still get it on PPV if you order it now) presenting our Pay Per View Reign of Champions.  We are bringing all 8 title matches to you during our 3 hour presentation.  On the show today:

Anytime/Anywhere title defense:  Phat Sol © vs the Masked Banana
Six Man Tag Team Championship:  Wilber Townsend, Talon McFrost and Otto Ruthless © vs Killa Pops, Superquake Ferguson and Maximillian Redbeard.  Pops has stated if they don’t win, he will leave HCW.
TV Title match:  Texas Wildfire © vs Starbuck Steel
Hardcore title Match:  Madman Mason © vs Biceps Bannerman
US Title match:  ‘the Ragin Cajun’ Rad Gumbo w/ Ms. Alexandria © vs the Banker w/ Ruth Heartless
Ladies Championship Match:  Korbi Kong © vs Catalina Harper
World Title Match:  Jack Lumber © vs Dash Woodbrick.  Master Bull is the special guest referee

Pyro goes off setting the show into motion.  GM Max McGillicutty comes out accompanied by Maxine DeVito.  Max says that he is beginning the event with the announcement that Maxine will be given an opportunity as a Co-GM.  The fans boo but he knew it was to be expected.  He tells them that Maxine is not liked by those backstage as well as the fans but she has proven she knows how to book a match.  Maxine gets on the mic and the booing intensifies.  “All I can say is that you haven’t seen anything yet in terms of what I can do behind the scenes.  With me accepting this role, I will step away from active competition in the ring but will return when I’m good and ready.  I’m also announcing that after tonight’s show, we will be taking a week off returning after Labor Day.”  Max and Maxine leave to mixed reactions from the crowd.  They are apparently not happy with Maxine being given any power in the company.

The Omegatron lights up after pyro goes off once again to a taped message from the Masked Banana.

“Phat Sol.   I used to have respect for you but not anymore.  Me and my Banana-maniacs are going to take the match to you and with the power of the BM’s in my corner, we are taking the Anytime/Anywhere title and will reign.  See you in the ring.”

The match begins with that all-too-familiar (yet fun) music:


Peach, Pomegranate, Lime Margarita
Green, orange, purple margarita
Salt, rocks, frozen margarita
Hey Margarita!



The Masked Banana comes out and the fans give him a huge pop.  He stops by the Banana Boat (his loyal fans) and shakes hands with them.  He begins his walk to the ring when Phat Sol runs out and blasts him again in the head with the title.  He drags MB to the ring and rolls him in.  He yells at the ref to start the match and then makes the cover.  The ref begins the count 1…2….KICKOUT.  The Masked Banana kicked out and began getting psyched up.  Phat was flabbergasted.  He punched MB once and the Banana began to shake.  Phat punched him a second time; same reaction.  After the third, MB began ‘hulking up’  (see https://www.bing.com/images/search?view=detailV2&ccid=w4D40HI0&id=B56DE044936176800A460BA56C5C30CD605D3B31&thid=OIP.w4D40HI0-UzsWWvXx03FlwAAAA&mediaurl=https%3a%2f%2fmedia.giphy.com%2fmedia%2fxUobRFUpYGIHT3KQ79%2fgiphy.gif&exph=292&expw=390&q=hulk+hogan+hulking+up+gif&simid=608008485566679758&ck=F5471D8299D14E231EBFC68C8D54272F&selectedindex=3&form=IRPRST&ajaxhist=0&first=1&scenario=ImageBasicHover for what that means).   MB began waving his finger in a “no, no” fashion and began peppering Phat with lefts and rights.

We join the match at the 8 minute mark.

Backstage, we are with the Six Man Tag Team Champions Wilber Townsend, Otto Ruthless and Talon McFrost.  Wilber keeps it short and simple.  “Tonight, at Reign of Champions,  I'm not just going to defeat Killa Pops, I’m going to drive him out of the business. Then, I'm going to change the world. They won't be able to comprehend my actions, not at first. But I guarantee you this, they will be able to deny me no more. Follow the buzzards.”

Our next match is ready to go.  First, the challengers Killa Pops, Maximillian Redbeard and Superquake Ferguson all make their way out to a pop from the crowd.  The trio head to the ring.  Once there, the lights dim and Wilber and company make their way out.  Each man is holding their third of the six man title and Wilber stands in the middle wearing his creepy Pennywise like mask.  He is trying to psychologically intimidate their challengers.   The champs head to the ring and the closer the got, the brighter the lights became.  Wilber entered the ring and looked directly at Killa Pops and dragged his thumb across his throat.  Wilber and Pops started this off.   The champs controlled the pace of the match but only just barely.  Pops and team really gave them a run for their money.  We join the match at the 15 minute mark.

Wilber and team retain their belts much to the dismay of the crowd.  Pops sneaks back in with a steel chair and delivers chair shots to each of the champs.  The champs make their way up the ramp and to the back.  Pops stays and interacts with the fans.  The crowd begins a “Thank You Killa Pops” chant and he is visibly moved by the reaction.  He and his tag team partners make their way up to the stage.  Pops shakes hands with Redbeard and Ferguson who leave allowing Pops to soak in the cheers from the fans one last time before he’s gone.

We head backstage for a set of interviews.  First is Starbuck Steel.

“Texas Wildfire…TV champion…former World Champion…US Champion.  You are one of the best in the business.  However, there are a lot of “formers” in there.  Former TV Champion is only a 3 count away.  It’s A-Game time.”

We then cut over to Texas Wildfire.

“There have been many challengers to the many titles I’ve held.  Starbuck Steel is definitely one to bring out the best in me.  Tonight though, I am walking out with my belt intact.  I’m glad you are bringing you’re a-Game; so am I.”

Our next match is ready to go.  First, Starbuck Steel comes out to a nice pop from the crowd.  Fans still hold “Get well Buzz” signs hoping to see the Steel Curtain reunited once again.  Starbuck shakes hands with a few fans and then makes his way to the ring.  After he does his thing in getting the crowd psyched up, the music changes and the fans pop huge as TV Champion Texas Wildfire makes his way out.  He stands on the stage soaking in the pop from the crowd.  He holds the title over his head and makes his way down to the ring.  He gets in and climbs the turnbuckle with his arms raised and the fans respond positively.  He steps down and hands the title to the ref.  He and Starbuck shake hands and the bell rings kicking this one off.   For 10 minutes, the match was practically even with neither man getting a leg up.  Just then, Apollo Gyze comes sauntering out.  He makes his way to the commentary booth and blasts Max, Maxine and all the powers that be for keeping him off the card and depriving him of a paycheck.  Wildfire is temporarily distracted by the rant Apollo was spewing.  Starbuck took advantage of the distraction hitting Wildfire with the Shooting Star Buck.  He went for the pin but Wildfire kicked out at 2.   We join the match at the 15 minute mark.

Starbuck Steel has just won the TV title.  He holds the title high.  Starbuck turns and extends his hand to Texas Wildfire who shakes it much to the delight of the crowd.  Wildfire gets ready to leave when he is attacked from behind by the Banker.  The Banker knocks him out with the (loaded) briefcase.  Starbuck tries to come to his aid but he is attacked by Apollo Gyze with a chair.  Apollo smacks Starbuck across the back three times before giving him a chair shot to the head knocking him out and busting him open.  The Banker then hands Apollo a wad of cash.  Apollo takes it and walks off.  The Banker says that everyone has a price and tonight, he knows Rad Gumbo’s price.  He laughs and leaves the ring.  Texas Wildfire and Starbuck had to be helped to the back.

Backstage, Madman Mason is ranting.  “Biceps Bannerman…you think you’re hardcore?  You are not.  You think you know pain and suffering?  You do not.  Tonight, you have one final chance to run and cower before your world collapses around you.  Tonight, the voices in my head stop and the madness runs wild.  You will be just another victim.”

We head to the ring as the next match is ready to begin.  Biceps Bannerman comes out to a huge pop from the crowd.  He interacts with the fans as he makes his way to the ring.  He gets the fans psyched up and then the music becomes ominous and out comes the crazy man Madman Mason.  Mason begins the slow walk to the ring and the fans boo him all the way.  He enters the ring and it’s announced that the stipulation for this match will be ECW rules.  Mason immediately attacks Bannerman but the match was practically even for the first 15 minutes of the match.  We now join at that time.

Biceps Bannerman has just won the Hardcore Title.   The fans pop huge for him but his victory is short lived when the evil vampire Dr. Red Fang snuck in from the crowd and attacked Bannerman with a lead pipe.  Fang then picked Bannerman up (no small feat) and then hit the Vampire Lunge before finishing him off with a Transylvania Piledriver.  Fang picks up the belt and then bends down and wipes his hand in Bannerman’s blood and smears it on the title (well, that needs to be disinfected now).  Fang drops the title on Biceps and cackles before leaving as security rushed the ring.  They had to help Biceps to the back.

We are half the way through the show and we head backstage to the US Champion Rad Gumbo and his manager Ms. Alexandria.  Gumbo starts off “Banker, mon-ami, you tink you’re gonna run up on dis guy?  Tink again.  Yousa in for a world of pain.”  Ms. Alexandria look at him and asks “Why in the hell are you talking like that?”  Gumbo laughs.  “Ah, it’s all in fun.  But in all seriousness, Banker, it’s time for you to close up your teller and head home.  You don’t have what it takes to stay here.  Stick around and you’ll see what an angry Cajun is like.”  He and Ms. Alexandria turn and leave.

The next match is ready to begin.  First, the challenger the Banker comes out with his manager Ruth Heartless carrying a dented briefcase.  They head to the ring.  The Banker then gets on the mic.  “Gumbo, let’s not waste more time with your pandering to these morons.  Just get out here.”  Over the loudspeakers blares “GUMBO 730 MEANS ITS SUPPA TIME, BITCH” and out comes the US Champion ‘the Ragin Cajun’ Rad Gumbo and his manager.  They make a straight shot to the ring and then enter.  The Banker puts up his hand and speaks.  “Listen, every man has a price.  You don’t really want that title anymore so I have a proposition for you.  I’ll pay you for it.  Actually, I’ll pay you to lay down and I can cover you for the 1-2-3 and that title is no longer a concern and you’ll be all the richer for it.”  Ruth opens a case revealing $50 bills.  Rad questions if that case is full of cash or if it’s just sitting on bricks.  He moves one of the bills revealing that bricks were indeed under the bills.  “You’re very smart” the Banker says.  He nods to Ruth who hands him another briefcase.  This one is full of cash.  Gumbo looks to the fans who tell him not to do it and then, in a shock to all in attendance and those watching from home, he accepts.  The fans are shocked and begin to boo.  The Banker laughs and then directs Rad to lay down.  The Bell rings and the Banker makes the cover but Rad kicks out at the 2 count. The Fans pop HUGE.  Rad grabs the mic and says “You want this belt, earn it”.  He drops the mic and the two begin brawling.  Both men fought tooth and nail for a solid 18 minutes.  Both men attempted pin falls but we’re able to secure the 3 count.  We join the match at the 19 min mark.

We head backstage for an interview with Drew the Canadian Love Machine and Davis ‘the Hoff’ Hoffmeister.  Drew and Davis say that everything comes to a head.   Tonight, the tag titles are on the line but the tension between the champs has also come to a head.  Davis says all it takes is a little to drive a wedge and then a team combusts.  Drew says that they are giving it their all and we all know what happens with 2 of the biggest fan favorites get together (Mega Powers) and what they can accomplish.

Scooter J and TNT, the Tag Team Champs, state that their opponents are delusional.  There is no rift between the champs and tonight, they hand Drew and Davis a huge loss and nothing will stop them from dominating the tag team scene.  TNT tries to get a word in but SJ walks off.  TNT follows.

The music starts and out comes the challengers Davis ‘the Hoff’ Hoffmeister and Drew the Canadian Love Machine to a HUGE pop from the crowd.  They interact with the fans and begin walking down to the ring.  Just then, the Tag Team Champs Scooter J and TNT run out and attack the challengers before the bell has even rung.  SJ throws Drew into the ringside barrier and TNT throws Davis into the steel steps.  Both men are rolled into the ring and SJ hollers for the bell to ring to start this off.  SJ goes for a pin on Davis but he kicks right out.  The champs had control early but Scooter J’s insistence on staying in the ring infuriated his tag team partner.  We join them now at the 10 minute mark.

We go backstage once again and Catalina Harper is with her clowder of cats.  “Korbi Kong, tonight I get my rematch.  You’ve ducked me long enough.  Tonight, I get my title back and you go back to being the bottom feeder you are.  Once I’m done with you, you won’t be good enough to clean litter boxes.  Enjoy the ride down.  HAHAHAHA”

Also backstage is the Ladies Champion Korbi Kong.  Korbi, a woman of very few words anyway, just had this to say.  “Catalina, dream away.”  She then began the walk towards the ring.

The music hits and out comes Catalina Harper to massive booing from the crowd.  She mostly ignored them and made her way to the ring.  She got in and paced waiting for the champ.  She didn’t have to wait long as Korbi’s music hit and the Ladies Champion makes a straight line for the ring.  She slides under the bottom rope and stares daggers at her opponent.  She turns and climbs the second turnbuckle and holds her title high.  She steps down keeping a wary eye out for her opponent.  She hands the title to the ref and steps back to do some neck and arm stretches.  The bell rings and Catalina charges at her in the corner and splashes Korbi in the corner.  It took a few minutes for the champ to regain her bearings but the damage from Catalina had already been inflicted.   At the 14 minute mark, Catalina hit Korbi with a CAT-astrophic blow and rolled her up (with a handful of tights) to get the 1-2-3.  Catalina Harper has just become the NEW LADIES CHAMPION!   Just then, Violet Valkyrie and Hayley Hailstorm came out and demanded a replay to show the ref what just transpired.  It was very apparent that Catalina cheated to get the win.  This then brought out co-GM Maxine DeVito.  Maxine says that she doesn’t like any of the Ladies down there but what Catalina did was wrong (she actually got a pop for that).  Maxine walks down to the ring and says that the match will restart and if Korbi wins, she will regain the Ladies title.  Oh, and it’s a no DQ match and it starts now.  She sends Violet and Hayley to the back.

Catalina gets the win again and officially becomes the NEW LADIES CHAMPION.  The fans boo the crap out of her and she smiles with a snide look on her face.  She drops an elbow drop on Korbi’s back to add insult to injury.  She takes her title and heads to the back.  Medics come out and help Korbi to the back.

In the back, Dash Woodbrick is spouting off at the mouth.  “Jack Slumber, you are a low life cretin.  First, you cost the Wicked Prophet the title and now you’ve pissed me off just enough for me to want to kick your ass.  Kicking it is what I do best and before the night is over, that title will be mine.”

World Champion Jack Lumber is also backstage and he laughed at what he heard Dash spout.  “A little dash goes a long way but tonight, Dash Woodbrick will be on the short end of the stick tonight when he leaves empty handed.  I defeated Wicked Prophet and the man with the Pecs and tonight, I defeat YOU.  Bring your best; it won’t be good enough.”

It’s time for our MAIN EVENT.  First, Dash Woodbrick comes out to the loudest boos of the night.  He flips off the fans, especially those in the Lumber Lounge.  He threatened to hit a few of them which only got them more riled up.  He makes his way to the ring but before he can do any showboating, we hear “TIMMMMBERRRR” and out comes the World Champion Jack Lumber.  The fans give him almost the biggest pop of the night.  He makes his way to the ring and enters and Dash jumps out the other side.  Dash begins to complain and the fans begin mocking him.  Dash grabbed one fan by his flannel shirt and Jack was out there to the fans’ rescue faster than a match getting lit.  Jack began peppering Dash with lefts and rights and rolled him back into the ring.  Dash was on his feet and began stomping on Jack as he tried to enter the ring.  The bell finally rang and Dash actually gave Jack a run for his money.  But not for long.  Jack took over control until a missed clothesline got him tangled up in the ropes.  Dash then pointed to the Omegatron and then an image of the Wicked Prophet turned up and Jack didn’t seem distracted by it.  In fact, Jack began laughing and told Dash to turn around.  Up on the Omegatron, the image of Prophet faded out and was replaced by the Masked Banana.  Jack began laughing.  Dash didn’t appreciate it and rushed at Jack but Jack freed himself just in time to catapult Dash over the top rope to the floor.  We now join the match at the 8 min mark.

Jack Lumber has just defeated Dash Woodbrick and he retains his championship.  The show comes to an end with Jack celebrating with the fans and hangs out in the Lumber Lounge.

Before the cameras stop rolling, we head backstage where US Champion Rad Gumbo has set down the briefcase they stole from the Banker.  He walks out of the camera shot.  We then see the Banker sneak back in and he exchanges the briefcase of money with the one with bricks in it (I’m sure he removed all the cash first).  The switch is made and the Banker runs off with his briefcase into a waiting car.  The Banker opens the case and much to his dismay, it is the one with the bricks in it.  He had the cash case all along and now he just gave it to Rad Gumbo.  “AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH” can be heard emanating from the car as they drive off.

Thanks for reading.  We will be taking a small hiatus before jumping back in.  Stay tuned.

HCW Wrestling Newsletter 2020 #856 (8/26/20) - the go home show



Hello fans and welcome back to another installment of the HCW Wrestling Newsletter.  Tonight is our “Go Home” show (the final show before Sunday’s Reign of Champions PPV.  That card will feature a whopping 8 title matches; some of those finalists will be revealed tonight.  We hear from the back that GM Max McGillicutty isn’t here (which is very odd).  Music hits and out comes ‘Sassy’ Maxine DeVito.   Maxine says Max had car trouble (uh oh, what did she do?) and was not going to make it tonight.  Therefore, she was going to set up the show.  Maxine tells us that there will be PPV placement spots, tune up matches and a title match on tonight’s show so without further ado, let’s get this party started.

First, the team of Killa Pops, Superquake Ferguson and Maximillian Redbeard come out to a pop from the crowd.  They interact with the fans as they make their way to the ring.  Their interaction is cut short when the music from the Snake Pit plays.  The Pit stand on the stage and do a collective fist bump to booing from the crowd.  Dressed in riot gear, they head to the ring.  The jawjacking ensues and the match starts fairly quickly.  The Pit had control early on but Pops and Co. fought back and took over control of the pace of the match.  Niven would fight back hitting Pops with a spear but only got a 2 count.  A few minutes later, Pops drops Leiton with a roundhouse right and went for the pin but Leiton kicked out.   Tobias tags in only to get hit with a shoulder breaker.  Pops tries for a pin but Tobias kicked right out.  Niven gets tagged in and hits Pops with a dropkick but Pops recovers and hits Niven with the Pimp Drop.  Redbeard and Ferguson hit the ring knocking Leiton and Tobias off the apron.  With no one to make the save, the ref counts 1, 2, 3.  He awards the match and the title match to Redbeard, Ferguson and Pops.  Pops gets on the mic and declares that his team will win the 6 man titles on Sunday or he will quit.   Just then, the Six Man Champs Wilber Townsend, Otto Ruthless and Talon McFrost hit the ring and attack Pops and Company.  Otto drops Ferguson with an Ice Breaker; Talon takes Redbeard down with the Cold Stone and Wilber plants Killa Pops with the GTS.  The champs stand over the challengers.  Wilber cackles and eventually they leave.   Pops, Redberd and Ferguson eventually recover and can make it to the back without assistance.  (13 min for the match; 5 for the aftermath)

Backstage, Dash Woodbrick walks into the office of the (wannabe) GM Sassy Maxine DeVito.  Dash says that Jack Slumber will try to weasel out of his match claiming he got a splinter so he says they need to have a contract signing to prevent Jack from doing that.  Maxine agrees and says she’ll have both parties out at the ring just before the main event.

Next up on the card, we have a spot challenge.  The winner of this match goes on to the PPV challenging Texas Wildfire for the TV title.  First, the challenger Ovaltine Jackson comes out to a nice pop from the crowd.  He interacts with the fans briefly before getting into the ring.  Next, defending his spot is Starbuck Steel.  The fans pop as ‘Buck makes his way down.  Lots of fans have signs that read “Get Well soon Buzz” which Starbuck fully appreciated.  He enters the ring, climbs one of the corner turnbuckles and then meets Ovaltine in the center of the ring.  Both men shake hands and this match begins.  Just as the match is kicking off, TV Champion Texas Wildfire comes out and goes to sit at commentary.  This move threw Ovaltine off his game more than it did Starbuck.  Starbuck hit the Buck-U twice before going for a quick roll up (he may have accidentally grabbed some tights for leverage) but Ovaltine kicked out.  Starbuck took Ovaltine to each corner introducing his head to the turnbuckles.  Buck hits a dropkick and then a re-visit to the turnbuckles.  Starbuck takes Ovaltine to the center of the ring and makes the cover.  He gets the 1-2-3.  Starbuck retains his spot and is going on to the PPV.  TV Champion Texas Wildfire gets in the ring and he and Starbuck have a stare down.   Wildfire extends his hand.  Starbuck shakes it but doesn’t let go.  He nods to the TV title and says he’s walking out the champ.  Wildfire smiles.  The two end up leaving within moments of each other.  (7 min for the match)

Maxine and Dash Woodbrick are still in the office.  Maxine asks Dash if he’d like to be a referee for one night.  Dash asks if it’s for the next match and she says yes.   She hands him a shirt and he takes off heading to the ring.

Dash Woodbrick comes running out and yells at the ref who was there to leave.  Dash is smirking.  First, Baron von Blood comes out to massive booing from the crowd.  He jawjacks with the fans and Dash lets him do his thing.  Next, the music changes and out comes Master Bull.  The fans pop for the former GM as he heads down to the ring.  Dash is smiling and points to his shirt.  He then gets into Master Bull’s face and tells him that if he so much lays a finger on him, he will disqualify him.  Bull is preoccupied listening to Dash’s bull that he doesn’t see Baron attack him.  Baron controlled the match and even went for the pin a couple of times with Dash fast counting but Bull kicked out in time.    This went on for 9 minutes.  Baron then locked Bull up with the Gas Chamber (sleeper hold) and he tried to fast count Bull out but Bull managed to “hulk” out of it and then dumped Baron out of the ring.  Dash took his sweet time counting Baron out and eventually he made it back in.  Bull picked Baron up and hit the Roman Powerbomb in the center of the ring.  He made the cover and Dash took his time and counted 1…………2…………(OMG HURRY UP ALREADY)………………………………………………………….3.  Master Bull wins the match and he immediately had words with Dash.  Dash threatened to hit Master Bull but then World Champion Jack Lumber came running out.  Dash saw him coming and took off through the crowd.   Jack motioned for Dash to return but he chose not to.  Jack and Master Bull shook hands and then made their way to the back.

Back in the GM office, Maxine is making herself at home.  Former Ladies Champion Catalina Harper walks in.  “You know, you and I have a history whether or not you want to admit it.  You know that I have yet to get my rematch for the Ladies title.”  Maxine tells her Hayley Hailstorm is the #1 contender.  “Fine”, Catalina says, “I challenge her for that spot.  I’ll see her in the ring.”  Maxine smirks as Catalina walks off.

One of the belts being defended on Sunday is the Anytime/Anywhere title held by Phat Sol.  Tonight, two men fight for the chance to meet Phat at the PPV.  The match bell sounds and out comes the AA champion Phat Sol.  He interacts with the fans and goes to sit at commentary.  The first challenger’s music hits:

Peach, Pomegranate, Lime Margarita
Green, orange, purple margarita
Salt, rocks, frozen margarita
Hey Margarita!

The Masked Banana comes out to a huge pop from the crowd.  He interacts with the fans and then makes his way to the ring.  His music is abruptly cut off and Tommy Lightning comes out.  He is immediately booed by the fans and he flips them off in return.  He walks down to the ring and gets in.  He yells at the Masked Banana and then attacks him.  The bell rings to start this one off.  Tommy’s cheap shot may have started this one off of MB finished it.  5 minutes in, MB straps in the B.A.N.A.N.A.S but Tommy won’t submit.  Throughout the rest of the match, MB went for the pin 4 times but Tommy kept kicking out. It wasn’t until the 22nd minute of the match (making this the longest match so far of the evening) that MB hit Tommy with the Banana Split that he was able to secure the 1-2-3.  The Masked Banana gets the win and will be going on to meet Phat Sol at the PPV for the AA title.  Phat enters the ring and shakes hands with MB.  He holds his arm up in victory and then BLASTS him with the title knocking him out.  The fans immediately boo Phat and he takes the mic.  “Everything I’ve done and everything I’ve accomplished is due to MY talent; not to any backing the fans give.”  This gets the crowd more riled up.  “This yellow freak is getting a shot at my title and thinks he deserves it.  He doesn’t.  However, now I’m obligated to defend my title against him so I will.  I’ll defeat him like everyone else I’ve destroyed in my quest for this belt; he will be no different.”  Phat leaves to booing from the crowd.  The ref helps Masked Banana to his feet and he seems ok.  He makes his way to the back.

Our next match begins with Catalina Harper making her way out first to booing from the crowd.  She casually flips them off and makes her way to the ring.  The booing intensifies when she has words with a little kid at ringside.  She does her best to ignore them and then the music changes and Hayley Hailstorm makes her way out.  The fans pop huge as Hayley makes her way out and down to the ring.  She enters and keeps a wary eye on Catalina.   She climbs the second turnbuckle to a pop from the crowd.  Just then, Ladies Champion Korbi Kong comes out to just as loud of a pop and she makes her way to commentary to scout the match.   Catalina has words for her (NSFW) but Korbi just looks on.  The bell rings drawing Catalina’s attention back to the match.  Catalina locked Hayley in the Catalina Crab early on and it looked like Hayley hurt her back.  Catalina kept the pressure on and focused her attacks on Hayley’s back.  Hayley tried for a Death Valley Driver but Catalina caught her with the Cat’s Meow.  She went for the pin and tried to hook the tights but Hayley kicked out at 2.  Catalina hit the Cat’s Meow and the Tailspin trying for a pin after each one but Hayley kept kicking out.  She winced at the pain in her back.  Hayley began battling back and she managed to hit the Death Valley Driver but the pain in her back caused her to move slowly.  By the time she was able to make the pin, Catalina kicked out at 1.  Hayley tried for the DVD again but Catalina turned it into the Catalina Crab.  Hayley wasn’t tapping out but it did look like she ended up passing out from the pain.  Catalina immediately turned it into a pin and she got the 3 count.  Catalina gets the win and the title shot at the PPV. (8 min)   Catalina immediately exited the ring and got into Korbi’s face.  A slobberknocker ensued and after many attempts to break them apart, they ended up fighting all the way to the back.  This one is not over between the two.

A table is set up in the ring and ‘Sassy’ Maxine DeVito makes her way out.  She gets into the ring but before she can call down anyone for the contract signing, music hits and out comes GM Max McGillicutty.  He is furious.  Maxine visibly gulps as the GM makes his way to the ring.   He gets on the mic and tells Maxine that he knows what she did but instead of blasting her for that, he is going to commend her on how she ran the show tonight.   She beams.  The fans seem confused.  Max says that Master Bull did help out a ton with running the show and he can’t do it all himself so he is appointing Maxine as co-GM.  Maxine jumps for joy.  “However, first, though, let me see that contract” (the one that Jack and Dash were going to sign).  He looks it over and sees some glaring changes.  “I did not authorize any of these changes.  You tried to take Master Bull out of the ref spot.  Sorry but he stays.  Next, I see you put a stipulation that if Jack is disqualified, he loses the title.  Sorry, but that is not going to work.   Third, I see you were giving Dash carte blanche in the ring.  Again, no.  Here is the original contract.  THIS is what they will sign.  I don’t want any lip otherwise I rescind my co-GM offer.”  Maxine apologizes and says she was just trying to ensure everyone upped their game.  Music hit and first, Master Bull makes his way out.  He gets in the ring and says that even though Maxine and Dash tried to stack the deck against him, he came out victorious.  He stands off to the side.  Maxine scrunches her face in anger at Master Bull but becomes all smiles when Max looks over.  Dash Woodbrick comes out first and makes his way to the table and sits down.  He tells Max and Maxine to keep Master Bull away from him. Next, World Champion Jack Lumber comes out to a huge pop from the crowd.  After stopping by the Lumber Lounge, he makes his way to the ring.  He goes to sit down opposite Dash.  Dash tells Maxine not to give Jack a pencil so that he doesn’t get a splinter or that he can erase his signature and weasel out of the match.  Jack holds his temper.  Maxine has Master Bull sign the contract as the officiant, followed by Dash and finally the World Champion.  Maxine takes the document and hands it to Max who looks it over to make sure everything is on the up and up.  Max and Maxine then leave while Dash and Jack have words.   Master Bull comes over but Dash grabs him by the head and slams it into the table.  He then overturns the table onto Jack.  Dash grabs the World title and smacks Bull with it sending him out of the ring and then hits Jack in the head with it busting him open.  Dash drops the title and holds his arms up in victory.  As soon as he sees Master Bull making his way back into the ring, he slides out and makes his way to the back laughing.  Master Bull checks on Jack and he’s ok but glaring at Dash through his crimson mask.  They eventually make their way to the back.  A cleaning crew comes out to clean the ring for our main event.

It’s time for our main event.  First, Bishop Ripley comes out to booing from the fans.  He makes his way into the ring and mocks the fans.  The music changes and out comes the TV Champion Texas Wildfire.  The fans give him the loudest pop of the night.  He interacts with the fans and then makes his way to the ring.  He climbs into the ring and climbs the second turnbuckle holding his title high.  Ripley attacks him from behind starting off the match.  Ripley had is one shot but couldn’t capitalize on it.   Wildfire took over and dominated the match We joined up at the 17 minute mark.
