Hello
fans and welcome to our inaugural HCW PPV the event you’ve been waiting for –
Independence Day Beatdown. We are coming
to you live from Phoenix, AZ. Today’s
show is sold out but available on PPV.
The fans here are pumped and ready to see who our new champions will
be. We feel that the tournaments brought
out the best in quite a few of our wrestlers.
In fact, two different wrestlers, Drew, the Canadian Love Machine and
Superstar Chic Monroe, had such successful runs in the tournaments that have
yielded several attempts to win different titles. However,
due to the multiple title rule, if either wins one of the belts, they will
forfeit any other matches they are in and their opponents for any of the
following matches will automatically be awarded the title. It’s not ideal but management doesn’t want
one person holding multiple belts as it dilutes their ability to successfully
defend those belts regularly (they want to avoid the “but I just wrestled and
you want me to wrestle again?” crap).
Also announced is that all champions must defend their belts at least
once every 30 days. Pyro goes off as our
inaugural PPV kicks off.
The
first match will be for the World Tag Team titles. First, the Smashers (w/MJ) make their way to
the ring. They are followed out by Drew
the Canadian Love Machine and the Savior (w/ Master Bull). Knowing that Drew would be wrestling 3x on
the show, the Savior stepped up and wrestled the majority of the match taking a
lot of the beatings so that Drew didn’t have to. Master Bull gave his team some great advice
but MJ assisted his team just a bit better (meaning he cheated more) and after
distracting Bull and Drew, he slipped a foreign object to Smasher #1 who nailed
the Savior with it. He makes the cover and the ref counted 1…2…3. The Smashers defeated Drew & the Savior
to become the NEW HCW WORLD TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS.
The champs celebrated in the ring all the while being pelted by debris
being hurled at them by the fans.
Eventually they left and we needed a short break to get stuff cleaned
up. (18 min)
Larry
Morton is backstage with the Steel Curtain (Buzz and Starbuck). Starbuck says that as former tag team champs
(they can’t reference the old fed names anymore), they should have gotten
further in the tag tournament but the Muscles Trio cost them their
opportunity. Buzz says that they will
address the Muscles Trio and once they are done with them, whomever is holding
the tag titles better watch out.
We
cut over to where Clarkus Kentus is talking to GM Max McGillicutty. Max says that the HCW is a ‘rebirth” and with
all the fresh faces being brought in, he hopes they will fill the void left by
the WWE, TNA and ROH wrestlers who were pulled because someone got too damn
greedy (DAMN that Stephanie and her husband).
We
head back to the ring for our next match which will be for the 6 Man tag team
trophy. As a reminder, the winners of
this trophy are not tied to the “multiple title” rule as this really isn’t a
title and would only be defended 3 - 4x a year.
First, the Steel Curtain (Buzz and Starbuck Steel) come out with Biceps
Bannerman. They get a huge pop from the
crowd. The fans like them but it takes
time for them to really mesh together.
On the other hand, their opponents Superstar Chic Monroe, Wendell
Hammerschmidt and Billy Robbins all worked well together. Chic would be wrestling multiple times tonight
so he purposely limited his in-ring action and as good as his teammates are,
that may have hurt them more than it helped.
Bannerman found his groove and made a huge impact over and over
throughout the match. Finally, after a
Bannerman splash, he tagged out to Starbuck Steel who hit Wendell with the
Shooting Star Buck and made the cover to get the 1…2…3. The Steel Curtain and Biceps Bannerman have
just become the NEW HCW 6 MAN TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS! Chic Monroe leaves his team right away to go
get ready for the rest of his matches. GM Max McGillicutty comes out and
unveils the trophy and the fans pop.
This one was well earned. (22
min)
We
go back to the interview area where Larry Morton is interviewing the Axe.
Morton comments on how well the Axe performed in the World title tournament and
said that he finally feels Axe’s time is now. Axe says that a huge weight was
lifted off his shoulders after sending former partner Dirk ‘the Pick’ Devon
packing and now he can concentrate on just himself. His performance is a perfect example of what
someone can do when there is no dead weight around their necks. Axe says he appreciates the talent of his
opponent Outback Oscar and promises to make his long-time dream come true
tonight.
We
head back to the ring for our next match.
This one will be for the TV title.
First, Master Bull comes out with “the Elitist” Reid Rothchild. Reid’s entrance is cut short when 5th
Column member Ivan Dragovich (w/Ant Graham) comes out next. Reid didn’t appreciate his time being cut
short and he took it out on Ivan. In
fact, Reid probably hasn’t been this aggressive since his feud with Alexander
Rusev. Reid OWNED this match and all the
advice Master Bull gave him really paid off.
Graham, sensing that Ivan could actually lose, blindsided Master Bull
taking him out with a chair shot. He
then distracted Reid just long enough for Ivan to hit a low blow and then with
a hook of the tights (and holding the ropes for leverage), he rolled Reid up
for the win. Reid was shocked. Ivan Dragovich has just become the NEW HCW TV
CHAMPION. Ivan had no time to celebrate
his win as Reid grabbed the chair Graham used on Master Bull and chased them
from the ring. I’m sure Reid is going to
fight for a rematch. (15 ½ min)
Outback
Oscar is backstage with Clarkus Kentus and he says he’s honored to be one of
the finalists in the World title tournament.
He acknowledges that the Axe had a great run during the tournament but he
did also and only one of them can be World Champion and says that it will be
him.
We
head back to the ring for one of our non-title matches. Dr. Red Fang (w/MJ) vs Emerson “Turnip”
Townsend is up next. As Turnip is making
his way to the ring, Fang comes out and attacks him and beats him silly all
before the match could begin. The ref
wanted to throw the match out but cousin Wilber Townsend came out and told the
ref to let the match begin. It is a
bloodbath. This one didn’t take long as
Fang destroyed poor Turnip. Fang gets
the win after nailing the Vampire Lunge (8 min). Fang wanted to continue the beatdown but MJ
led security from the back to “escort” Fang backstage. Wilber, who had made his way to ringside for
the match, entered the ring. He shakes
his head as he helps his cousin to his feet.
Wilber then viciously nailed Turnip with a haymaker turning on his
cousin. Wilber grabs a mic and yells “We
ain’t blood no more!” He drops the mic
and leaves Turnip behind to be tended to by medics.
Backstage,
MJ says he can’t control Fang and Ant Graham saunters over and agrees to take
over the contract for Fang saying he’d be a perfect fit in the 5th
Column. MJ gladly signs the paperwork. Graham meets up with Fang and tells the Dr.
that MJ was too nice to manage a man like Fang and says he promises to let Fang
“loose” on the HCW and he can do whatever he wants. Fang smiles and snarls at the camera as the
segment ends.
We
go back to the ring for our next match which is for the United States
Championship. ‘Superstar’ Chic Monroe
comes out first to an ok pop from the crowd.
Next, Drew, the Canadian Love machine comes out and the pop he gets is
much louder. Chic immediately went on
the offensive but Drew was right there with him up until the 8th
minute of the match and then the tide really turned in the Superstar’s
direction. Chic controlled the remainder
of the match holding Drew to just a few offensive moves. After nailing a Straight Jacket Suplex, he
finally made the cover to get the 1, 2, and 3.
Superstar Chic Monroe has just become the NEW HCW US CHAMPION. Drew leaves quietly obviously disappointed
with his performance in this match. He
does have one final shot at gold. Will
the third time be the charm? (15 min)
Jerry
Saunders is interviewed backstage and he is asked why he has such a dislike of
Phat Sol. Saunders says Phat has
everyone fooled and he’s not who everybody thinks he is. It will be a matter of time before Phat’s
real motives are revealed.
It’s
time to head back to the ring for the finals for the Ladies title. First, Kimberly Kiccass comes out to a nice
pop from the crowd. The British Crippler
comes out and damn, she sure has a hell of a presence. Half the crowd pops, the other half
boos. She doesn’t care as she is here to
wrestle. Kimberly was dominated from the
get go. Ms. Crippler just destroyed
Kimberly and it didn’t take long for her to hit the Natural Selection and make
the cover for the 3 count. The British
Crippler def Kimberly Kiccass to become the 1st ever HCW Ladies
Champion. Ms. Crippler holds the title
high as the fans have collectively decided NOT to cheer her anymore. (8 ½ min)
Backstage,
Ravishing Raquel meets the British Crippler and congratulates the champ and
says she wants the first shot at taking her down. The Brit says she will not give Raquel a shot
off the bat but will give her a non-title match. If Raquel can beat her, then she will deserve
a title match. Raquel walks off and meets
up with Master Bull and tells him to make this happen.
Next,
we have a specialty match with no title on the line. Phat Sol vs. Jerry Saunders will be an I Quit
match. Phat dominated the match and
Saunders tried to get counted out but the ref kept telling him to get back in
the ring. This happened multiple times
and each time it brought Phat’s momentum to a screeching halt. Phat would continue to battle but never went
for the I Quit; he wanted to hurt Saunders.
After 15 minutes of beating Jerry down, he removed the turnbuckle
cover. He went to hurl Saunders into the
corner but Jerry reversed it and Phat smashed his head against the exposed
corner. Jerry immediately pulled Phat to
the middle of the ring and locked in a rear chinlock. He told the ref to check if Phat was out or
not. The ref raised Phat’s arm once (it
fell), twice (it fell) and a third time (fell again). The ref calls for the bell awarding the match
to Jerry Saunders. Saunders immediately
left the ring and stumbled to the back grateful the match is over. Medics came out but by the time they got to
the ring, Phat was up and questioning what just happened. (Side note:
Phat never said I Quit.)
In
the back, Drew is with the Savior and the Savior tries to give his tag team
partner some words of wisdom. Whatever
he said must have worked because after their talk, Drew looked ready to go.
We
go back to the ring for the finals for the Hardcore title. Leiton Snake comes out first (his brothers do
not accompany him out). Fans are not
sure how to take him so he gets a mixed reaction. Drew, the Canadian Love Machine comes out
accompanied by the Savior and his manager Master Bull and the fans POP HUGE for
him. The Savior shares some more words
of wisdom and then watches as Drew and Bull make their way to the ring. Drew gets in the ring and the ref says that
the Hardcore rules for this match will be Lights Out rules. Master Bull provides some words of wisdom and
Drew is off like a rocket. Leiton tried
to slow down the CLM but alas, nothing would work. Drew kept Leiton distracted and capitalized
at every turn. Drew finally was able to
hit a corkscrew pescado and it was lights out for Leiton Snake. With a hook of the leg, Drew got the
1-2-3. Drew the Canadian Love Machine defeats
Leiton Snake to become the 1st ever HCW Hardcore Champion. The Savior and Master Bull joined Drew in the
ring as he celebrated with the fans. (17
½ min)
Backstage,
newcomers The Duchess and El Gato Negro almost came to blows again. GM Max McGillicutty broke it up and told the
two that with only one match left on the card, they have some free time to let
these two fight it out in the ring. Max
says he’s giving them both 20 minutes and both ladies are happy to oblige.
The
Duchess vs El Gato Negro is up next.
Both women fought their way down to the ring. The ref started the match as soon as both
entered the ring. This was no wrestling
match…this was a fight. Both ladies tore
into each other. The Duchess had a
slight advantage over her opponent but El Gato Negro was much faster. The two traded both pin and submission
attempts. Just as the match was winding
down, the Duchess locked in the “All Hail Her Majesty” and tried to get El Gato
to tap out but she just wouldn’t quit. After pounding on her a few minutes
more, El Gato Negro surprised the Duchess by locking in a Wall-O-Cato
(tarantula) and tried to get the Duchess to quit but she didn’t. Finally, the bell rang signaling the time
limit draw but neither were ready to quit.
The two fought all the way back to the dressing room. (20 min)
GM
Max McGillicutty comes out one final time and says it is time for the main
event. Max first introduces Outback
Oscar who gets a decent pop. Next, the
Axe comes out and the fans just aren’t sure about him as he WAS teamed with
Dirk Devon and they were not exactly nice to the fans. However, Axe shook hands with the fans as he
made his way to ringside. Apparently,
his son was there in the front row cheering on his dad. Axe dedicates the match to him. The Axe stared off strong but soon the
Australian superstar started taking the match to him. Oscar kept Axe off his feet by taking them
out with legsweeps but that only forced Axe to take his game to the mat and began
to out-wrestle Oscar. Oscar started to
get frustrated and began choking Axe in the corner. He broke the hold just
seconds before he was about to be disqualified.
Oscar charges Axe and eats a belly to belly suplex. Axe starts to “hulk” up and nails a second belly
to belly suplex. Oscar sets up a
swinging neckbreaker but Axe reverses it and almost decapitates Oscar with the
Axe. He makes the cover and the ref
counts 1…2…3. The Axe has just defeated
Outback Oscar to become the NEW HCW WORLD CHAMPION!!! Balloons and streamers fall from the ceiling
and Axe’s son joins him in the ring to celebrate. The show comes to an end with Axe and his son
posing with the World title.
