HCW Wrestling Newsletter 2016 #497


Hello fans and welcome back to our newsletter.  Today’s show kicks off backstage in GM Max McGillicutty’s office.  There is a knock on the door and in walks the World Champion, King CJ.  Max comments that it’s about time the World Champion showed up.  King CJ says he’s been in the hospital and is not well.   Max says it’s just another of CJ’s copouts.  CJ says not this time and he is ill.  Max says regardless, he needs to appear more leading up to our PPV.  CJ says he cannot.  Max says if he does not, he will strip CJ of the belt.  CJ one-ups the GM by surrendering the World title.  “When I am healthy, I WILL come back for my belt.  Remember this moment as I did not LOSE the title.”  CJ surrenders the title and walks out as Max stands there in shock but then says that he will pick 4 men to participate in a Fatal Four Way at the PPV with the winner becoming the new World Champion.

As it turns out too, HCW was booked for TWO shows on the same day.  Max had to quickly put together a lineup for the second show.

The first match is our first qualifying match for the Fatal 4 way at the PPV.  First, Jerry Saunders makes his way down to the ring.  His opponent is Sonic Blade.  Sonic has been on a roll and hopes to make it to the PPV.   Saunders cheated to get a leg up on Blade but Sonic battled back and eventually took Jerry to school.   Jerry had started to get desperate but each time he tried for a high impact move, Blade nullified it.  Jerry finally went for an abdominal stretch but Sonic turned it into a reverse cradle and the ref counted to 3 giving the win and advancing to the PPV to Sonic Blade.  Blade celebrated briefly before leaving.  Saunders left the ring disappointed.  (14 min)

TV Champion Ivan Dragovich and his manager Ant Graham storm into Max’s office.  Ivan says that a PPV is not the same as TV and says he shouldn’t be required to defend his belt.  Max gives him a final ultimatum – he wrestles and defends the title or he is fired.  Max says that Ivan WILL wrestle at the PPV.  Ivan asks who his opponent will be.  Max says at the next show, there will be a fatal four way with the winner getting a shot at his title.  This time however, Ant Graham will be BARRED from ringside.  Graham tried to show the stipulation in his contract where he HAD to be at Ivan’s side but this time Max was prepared and showed Graham the contract HE signed giving Max the authority to remove Ant at any time.  Graham and Ivan stormed out of the office.

We head back to the ring for our next PPV qualifying match.  First, Outback Oscar makes his way out to a huge pop from the crowd.  Next, his opponent Desperado member El Chango comes out and he is not well liked here.  El Chango appears to be a bit frustrated so he starts to take it out on Oscar.  Both men looked strong but it wasn’t until El Chango tried for a Phoenix Splash and Oscar got his knees up and El Chango crashed hard.  Oscar then locked in the Outback stretch and El Chango immediately tapped out.  Oscar gets the win and moves on.  Medics came out to check on El Chango and he aggressively pushed them away.  (8 min)

The Fiend makes his way down to the ring and calls out the Ambassador and says he wants a shot at Phat Sol but with a stipulation.  He says that if he wins, the Ambassador must let him out of his contract.   If he loses, he remains under the thumb of the Ambassador AND will give Phat his title shot against Dr. Red Fang for the Hardcore title.  The Ambassador calls Phat down to see what he thinks and he agrees.  The Ambassador says that match happens now.

For 10 minutes, the Fiend beat the holy hell out of Phat Sol and the Ambassador was beside himself.  It wasn’t until Phat hit a vertical suplex on the Fiend that things changed.  The Ambassador almost got Phat disqualified twice after wanting to interfere.  The Ambassador slipped Phat a foreign object but before he could use it, the Fiend hit the 3 Hits from Hell and went for the cover but Phat kicked out.  He then used the foreign object on the Fiend and once again, Phat had control.  Phat used the foreign object 3 times before discarding it.  He went for a pin but the Fiend kicked out.  The Ambassador hit the Fiend with his cane.  Phat went for a pin but the Fiend kicked out again.  The Ambassador jumped up on the apron but the Fiend reversed an irish whip and threw Phat crashing into the Ambassador.  He then hit the ropes and nailed a vicious clothesline.  The Fiend makes the cover and gets the 1-2-3.  The Fiend is victorious and is no longer under the thumb of the Ambassador AND he gets to keep his title shot.  (19 min)

The Wraith is backstage and says that things are not done between him and the Stache.  The Wraith demands that Max make a match between them and the winner moves forward to the World title hunt.  Max thinks it will be good for business so he makes the match.

We head back to the ring for a battle royal to determine who will get to meet Chic Monroe for the US title at the PPV.  The 7 competitors are Dude USA Mick Rude, El Chango (still smarting from his earlier loss), Starbuck Steel, Jesse California, Perfect Pecs Stoddard, Superquake Ferguson & Billy Robbins.   In order of elimination:  Stoddard, Superquake, Starbuck, Robbins, El Chango leaving Jesse California to take on fellow Californian Dude USA Mick Rude.  Rude held his own and after a powerslam took the wind out of Jesse’s sails, he “sailed” right over the top rope.  Mick Rude gets the win and will take on Superstar Chic Monroe for the US title.  (14 min)

Backstage, the Hollywood Star says he’s heard that the Axe is back in the title hunt and it’s not fair that someone who lost is still considered a contender.  The Star says he challenges the Axe for his spot and when he wins, he will move on for World title consideration.

We go back to the ring for our next match which has the Wraith taking on the Stache.  Both men try to go after each other but Max comes out before they come to blows.  Max says he wants a winner here and wants to see one of these two move on.  No more excuses…put up or shut up.  He says the match will be a sudden death first fall claims it match.  The Stache begins choking the Wraith out with a broom handle.  He tries for a pin but Wraith kicks right out.  He then pulled the Wraith outside and whipped him into the ringpost and the Wraith hit the post with his back hard.  The Stache pulls him back in and locks in the Handlebar (camel clutch).  The Wraith screamed in pain but wouldn’t quit.  The Wraith, finally exhausted, passed out.  The ref raised the arm once, twice and 3 times it fell.  The Stache wins this one in FAST fashion and goes on for a shot at the World title.  (2 min)  The Wraith had to be helped from the ring.

Backstage, Ravishing Raquel says that with no more Master Bull, it is up to her to win this final fight between her and Lady Hermann.  Raquel states she’s won multiple titles and battles on her own and tonight is no different.  She says she will get Hermann to tap out.

Our final qualifying match is the Hollywood Star taking on the Axe.  Max announced that this match would have a 30 minute time limit. Not sure what the Star was trying to accomplish here as he struggled at first and it took a while for him to find his groove.  Unfortunately for him, it didn’t come until much later in the match and by that time, Axe found his second wind and nullified any offense he could muster.  Axe hit the Star with the Axe but surprisingly, the Star kicked out.  Axe couldn’t believe it.  Star hit a chop block on Axe’s knee taking him down.  He then climbed the top rope and went for a splash but Axe got his knees up in time.  Star rolled on the ground clutching his stomach.  Axe crawled over and hooked the leg.  The ref counted 1-2-3.  The Axe gets the win and secures the final spot in the hunt for the World title.  He favors the knee a bit but seems to be ok.  (23 min)

Lady Hermann says that tonight Ravishing Raquel is put out to pasture and the NEW Ladies division finally gets rid of the “divas” and will show that only the best will survive.

Max comes out one more time and says that our main event is comprised by two of the top ladies in the HCW.  Max says that both women are top contenders in their own right but he knows that this, potentially the end of a feud, should have the “carrot” dangling at the end of the match.  Max says that whomever wins this match will get a title shot at the Ladies title at a date to be determined in the future. 

Ravishing Raquel makes her way to the ring to a decent pop from the crowd.  Next, Lady Hermann comes out and she is booed pretty heavily.  Lady Hermann started off strong for 2 minutes but then Raquel proved why she is a multi-time champion.  After Raquel caught Lady Hermann with a moonsault from the top rope, her ladyship never really recovered.  The rest of the match was all Raquel.  She locked in the Ravishing Armbar only to have Hermann make it to the ropes.  She then hit the Simply Ravishing but Hermann rolled out of the ring to avoid a pin.   Lady Hermann tried for the Figure Eight leg lock but Raquel neutralized it.  She then tried for a sitout wheelbarrow facebuster but Raquel once again neutralized it.   After laying some knife edge chops on Raquel, the Ravishing One dropped Hermann with an ankle lock but instead of going for the submission, she hooked the leg and got a pin out of it.  Ravishing Raquel has won this war and stands victorious.  Lady Hermann left the ring while Raquel celebrated with the fans as the show came to an end.

Thanks for reading.  The PPV is just a short week away but don’t forget, the Hall of Fame Ceremony will take place before that.   Be sure to stick around.


The quick recap of our second show:

1)   Leon Teremoto vs Terra Ryzing:  Leon submitted after Terra locked in the Indian Deathlock (8 min)

2)   Starbuck Steel vs Muscles Thorpe:  Went to a 20 minute draw.  Both men fought to the back.

3)      Buzz Steel vs Muscles Weasley:  Buzz gets the win after hitting the Buzzkill (10 min)

4)      Biceps Bannerman vs Muscles McGuire:  Went to a 20 minute draw.  After the match, Weasley and Thorpe rand back down and tried to triple team Biceps but the Steel Curtain came back out for the save.

5)      Baron von Blood vs Wendell Hammerschmidt:  Baron got the win via countout after Ant attacked Wendell on the outside of the ring and Wendell was not able to make it back in.  (8 min)

6)      Karl Braun & Oswald Zimmerman vs Butch Huber & Wilber Townsend:  The 5th Column got the win after Karl had choked Wilber in the corner and then pinned him.  (11 min)

7)      Main Event:  Falls count anywhere:  Rad Gumbo vs Magnum Kone.  ‘The Ragin Cajun’ Rad Gumbo came out with his manager MJ and was touting his phrase “Gumbo 7:30 means is suppa time bitch”.    Magnum came out second and stopped with a mic and corrected Rad.  “Actually, its 8:13 and time for dessert.”  The fans popped for that.   Gumbo didn’t care for it and attacked Magnum going after his legs and back.  Magnum fought him tooth and nail and really held his own.  MJ tried to interfere and got sent to the back.  These guys for all over the place for over 30 minutes.  Magnum thought he had it won after powerbombing Rad through a table but much to his credit, the Ragin Cajun kicked out.  Magnum would hit the Popsicle and go for the pin but Rad kept kicking out.  Rad concentrated on the back of Magnum by locking in the New Orleans Crab but Kone would power out of it.  Finally, Magnum hit the popsicle again but took too long to make the cover and Rad kicked out.  Rad then locked Magnum in the New Orleans crab and eventually Magnum made it to the ropes to break the hold.   Rad pulled Magnum back in and locked in the crab a second time.  This time, Magnum was not able to get to the ropes and had no choice but to tap out.  A very hard fought victory by Rad Gumbo.  He tried to continue to inflict more damage on Kone but the ref sent Rad away after MJ joined him at ringside again. 


Thanks for sticking with us.  Stay tuned for more.

HCW Wrestling Newsletter 2016 #496


Hello fans and welcome back to our show.  Tonight’s event begins in Max’s office.  Sitting there with him are ‘the King of Cones’ Magnum Kone and ‘The Ragin Cajun’ Rad Gumbo.  Max tells them not to speak but instead recaps the fight that took place (it was all recorded on cell phones).  Additional Cell phone video continues with Rad Gumbo and Magnum Kone being escorted out by police from Fry’s Electronics.  At least half a dozen times, Magnum was stopped by other officers asking to take a picture with him.  Just before he got taken away, Haagen and Daas show up (next door to the Fry’s is a Haagen Daas ice cream store and they were doing a public relations event) and give ice cream to all the officers, employees and management at Frys’s.  The video ends and Max just glares at them.  Max goes on to say that the lawyers from Fry’s Electronics have sent Max a bill for $50K in damages.  Max says he’ll take it out of their paychecks.  Rad tries to speak up but Max warns him if he does, he will be fired.  A knock on the door is followed by two men in suits who ask to speak to Max.  Max tells Rad and Magnum to leave and go home.  If they have any interaction before he ok’s it, they are both out of a job.   The men in suits let Rad and Magnum leave and close the door behind them.

The first match on the show begins with Perfect Pecs Stoddard making his way to the ring.  He is then followed out by ‘Red Hot’ Lucas Johnston and his manager the Ambassador.   Lucas was not doing well for the first 8 minutes as Pecs just manhandled him.  Finally, the Ambassador takes Lucas out of the ring and tells him to stop being such a nice guy and FIGHT.  Lucas gets back in the ring and does a complete 180 with his attitude.  He no longer sought approval from the fans.  He turned it up a notch that we haven’t seen from him yet.  The fans didn’t care for his new found attitude and voiced their opinions whereas the Ambassador praised him.  The Ambassador strategically “interfered” and that helped Lucas all the more.  Pecs got lucky and hit Lucas with the White Noise piledriver and the Ambassador jumped on the ring for the distraction.  Lucas called for the ref holding his neck and when the ref went to check on him, the Ambassador used that distraction to eye gouge Pecs with some peanut shells.  Blinded, Pecs stumbled back into the ring and Lucas, playing decoy, rolled Pecs up for the 1-2-3.  “Red Hot” gets the win here.  Pecs leaves the ring and Phat Sol comes down.  He and Lucas celebrate in the ring.  The Ambassador says that these two are now a tag team and are throwing out a challenge to the Tag Team Champions for a title match at the PPV.  MJ comes out laughing and says “Sure, we’ll accept.”  MJ walks away laughing as the Smashers, hiding in the audience, hit the ring and attack Phat and Lucas.  They beat them down and then stand over them laughing and then the finally leave.  (16 min for the match; 23 for the segment)

The Steel Curtain are backstage in GM Max McGillicutty’s office.  Buzz voices his concern about the third man constantly interfering in their match costing them.  Max asks what they think he should do.  Starbuck says that they want the third man to be handcuffed to Biceps Bannerman, sitting at ringside.  Max thinks it’s a great idea and says he will make it happen.  The Steel Curtain leave the office. 

We head back to the ring for our next match:  Dude USA Mick Rude taking on Jesse California.  Both men shook hands before the match and it looks like we have ourselves a solid match.  The match was pretty even with no rule breaking going on.  At the 9 minute mark, Jesse connected with some jumping elbow drops.  He picked up Mick Rude and threw him to the ropes.  Mick ducked, hit the ropes again and then shoulder blocked him out of the ring.  Jesse landed hard and then hit the ringside barrier.  The ref counted and reached 10 counting Jesse out.  Dude USA gets the win via countout.  He goes out to help Jesse up and tempers flared briefly before Jesse settled down and shook hands with Mick and the two made their way back.  (9 ½ min)

Backstage, The Savior cuts a promo saying tonight is about redemption.  He promises Drew will be the one to scream “I Quit” and then he will become his minion – just like the millions and millions of sheep that are out there.

Max finished his meeting with the suits and we’ve determined they are lawyers from Fry’s Electronics.  The lawyers walk out thanking him and shake Max’s hand.  Reporter Clarkus Kentus sees them leaving and asks what transpired.  Max says that the lawyers from Fry’s said they got gained so much business because of the “advertising” that the debt was forgiven.  Turns out all the shops including the Haagen Daas store all benefited and everyone was happy.  As part of the settlement, Fry’s said they wanted both Magnum Kone and Rad Gumbo to sign certain items used in their brawl that would be auctioned off.  Rad and Magnum would not get any of the money but that’s just how those things go.

We go back to the ring four our next match.  First, Missy Chick and Kimberly Kiccass come out for this tag team match.  They are then followed out by two members of the Queen’s Court – Lady Hermann and Queen Beckett.  The Queen’s Court has not had the best luck as of late so they are hoping to turn that round tonight.  Right off the bat, Queen Beckett locks Kimberly in the Surrender but Missy makes the save.  Lady Hermann is tagged in and she immediately dispatches Missy Chick by kicking her off the ring and she landed in some chairs at ringside.  Lady Hermann then beat down on Kimberly but soon, her ladyship was getting her ass kicked.  After being pummeled for a few minutes, Lady Hermann tagged back out to the Queen who hits Kimberly with a fallaway slam.  Missy, recovered by now, pulls Lady Hermann off the ring and she hits her face on the mat.  Queen Beckett screams in frustration but then Kimberly locks in a dragon sleeper.  With no one to save her, Beckett has no choice but to tap out.  Kimberly lets up and Missy joins her in the ring as the ref raises their arms as the winners of the match.  Lady Hermann and Queen Beckett sulk to the back.  (7 ½ min).

We cut to the back again and this time we are with Drew the Canadian Love Machine.  Drew says that the Savior is mistaken and tonight, HE will be the one tapping out and Drew finally getting rid of this baggage.  Tonight will be a turning point for Drew, he guarantees it.

We head back to the ring for our next match.  First, the Muscles Trio make their way out and McGuire is complaining about having to be handcuffed.  Thorpe tells him they have it figured out.  Next, the Steel Curtain and Biceps Bannerman make their way out.  The ref immediately pulls Biceps aside and has him sit at ringside.  The ref places one of the handcuffs on Biceps wrist.  The ref calls for McGuire to sit next to him and he is handcuffed.  Biceps stands up when McGuire tries to pull away and then he sits back down.  The Muscles team began by targeting Starbuck and beating him senseless.  He never got a chance to tag out and the Muscles team made sure he stayed put.  McGuire had pulled out some brass knuckles and then blasted Biceps with it over and over.  He then grabbed a hacksaw from under the ring and cut off the cuff.  After being beat down for over 15 minutes, Starbuck makes the hot tag to Buzz who went to town.  McGuire snuck around and pulled Starbuck from the ring and beat him down leaving Buzz to fend for himself.  He did ok though and really owned the ring.  The bell then rang bringing this one to a 20 minute time limit draw.  The Muscles Trio hit the ring and all went after Buzz.  Biceps had recovered by now and joined Buzz in the ring and started to dismantle the trio.  Starbuck eventually joined them and the trio ran off like scalded dogs.  Starbuck, really fed up with the Muscles interference, screamed for Max to do something about this.  Buzz and Biceps helped Starbuck from the ring and they went to the back.  (20 min draw)

Taylor Bella walks in to Max’s office and says that she hoped Max brought in the Duchess for her match tonight.  Max says he did but tells her that by forcing this match now, it is her one and only shot at the title.  If she doesn’t win, she probably will not see a title match anytime in the future.  She says it’s ok as she’s going to win tonight regardless.

It’s time for our grudge match of the night.  Drew the CLM vs the Savior in an I Quit Match.  The Savior makes his way out first and is booed pretty heavily.  Drew then comes out and receives the opposite reaction.  Max comes out and says that these two will have all the time they need to get this one done AND it can only end when one yells “I Quit”.  Max leaves and the match is immediately started.  As expected, this was nothing short of a slobberknocker.  These two beat the holy hell out of each other.  Drew had the lead for quite a while until the Savior began using all sorts of weapons to get Drew to call it quits.  The Savior then took the lead trapping Drew multiple times but he just would not give up.  Drew locked in a Brutal Backbreaker but the Savior made it to the ropes.  This was at the 11 minute mark.  They did not actually try to get the other to quit for over 40 minutes.  Both men were running out of steam and the Savior had exited the ring.  He found some tape and taped his thumb.  He crawled back into the ring only to get dropped by the La Casita.  Drew was getting ready to do something but the Savior instead jambs his taped thumb into the esophagus of Drew.  Exhausted and gasping for air, Drew yells “I Quit” much to the dismay of his fans.  The Savior raises his arms in victory and Drew is really upset.  He leaves the ring in disgrace while the fans tried to chant his name and cheer him up but nothing works.  They turn their attention to the Savior and practically boo him out of the building.  (56 minutes)

Max is back in his office and announces Steel Curtain vs Muscles Trio for the trophy at the PPV in a Steel Cage.  He says that this will settle things once and for all between these two teams.

It is time for the main event.  Taylor Bella vs the Duchess for the Ladies title.  Taylor starts poking the Duchess in the chest. The champ hits a hair pull and toss and Taylor hits a monkey flip.  Duchess did it again and followed it up with a vicious uppercut.  Duchess this a Lou Thesz press and Taylor face plants Duchess on the mat.  Duchess hits a second LTP.  The ref tries to break them up in the corner and Duchess hits a cheap shot.  Taylor hits an uppercut.  Taylor then tries for a rolling leglock but the Duchess reverses it and hits a foot stomp.  She rolls Taylor up and grabbing a handful of tights, gets the 1-2-3.  The Duchess retains her title in just 7 minutes.  Taylor leaves the ring.  El Gato Negro hits the ring and the two have a staredown as the show comes to an end.


That’s all for now. Stay tuned for our next episode.

HCW Wrestling Newsletter 2016 #495

https://hwfcswafantasy.blogspot.com/

Hello fans and welcome back to our newsletter.  As we saw in the last issue, Ivan Dragovich regained the TV title.  Even though this is “TV”, he said he was taking the night off.  We also saw the Steel Curtain once again get screwed over by the Muscles Trio.  Not only did they lose a shot at the World Tag Team titles but will now have to defend their trophy against the Trio.  That’s fine as I’m sure the SC and Biceps Bannerman will have no problem destroying these guys.

We cut right to GM Max McGillicutty’s office.  ‘The Ragin Cajun’ Rad Gumbo walks in and says that he has some shopping to do today so he wants the first match on the card.  Max says fine and Rad heads to the ring.

First, the Shockmaster makes his way to the ring (without stumbling or losing his glitter covered Stormtrooper helmet).  Rad Gumbo then makes his way out with his manager MJ.  He heads to the ring and attacks the Shockmaster before the bell could ring.  Finally, it does ring and we are underway.   Gumbo had it harder than expected as the Shockmaster wouldn’t go quietly into the night.  He put up a hell of a fight and Gumbo kept looking at the clock like he needed to be somewhere.  About 8 minutes in, MJ tells Gumbo to “turn it up” and Rad went to town.  After wearing the big man down, Rad locks in the Onion Lock but needs to use the ropes for leverage.  The Shockmaster ends up tapping out.  Rad Gumbo gets the win in 14 minutes.  MJ motions for Rad to “GO” and he takes off out of the ring.  I wonder what all that is about.

The final announcement regarding the 2016 Hall of Fame is who will induct MW3.  The words “Who will induct MW3 into the Hall of Fame” flash up on the Omegatron and then the lights go dark with only the Omegatron providing light.  Seconds later it too goes off and we hear the all-too-familiar “GONG” ring through the speakers.  Yep, MW3 will be inducted by none other than the Undertaker.

The camera cuts backstage and we see Gumbo rushing out of the building.  There is a car waiting for him.  He hops in and it zooms off.

We head back to the ring for our next match.  First, out comes Angry Jack Lawson.  We’re still not clear on what went down between him and ‘The Elitist’ Reid Rothchild but it practically caused the two to almost come to blows.  Reid then makes his way out with his manager Master Bull.  Reid looks like a man on a mission.  He hits the ring and the two immediately begin fighting.  Reid tore into Jack and it looked like he was going to just dominate but he began to run out of steam and after whipping Reid into Master Bull and the two collided, Jack then turned on the power.  He began taking the match to Reid but finally Reid had enough and dropped Jack with the Reid Bottom.  He went over and talked to Master Bull and after consoling his angry protégé, he provided some intestinal fortitude and Reid went back to destroying Jack.  Reid hit an axe handle smash from the top rope and hit the Reid Leg Drop.  He made the cover and got the 1-2-3.  Reid wins this one in solid fashion.  Reid and Master Bull celebrated as Jack slunk to the back.   (19 min)

There is commotion backstage and it appears that Madame Jade was taken out.  She is on the ground clutching her knee and there is a police baton sitting on the ground near her (is this Nancy Kerrigan all over again?  The ‘whack’ heard around the locker room).  GM Max McGillicutty walks over and is accompanied by ambulance personnel.  Jade is tended to and gets loaded on a stretcher and is taken out.  Taylor Bella (whoa…she’s a blonde now?) walks over and asks what happened.  Max tells her and she replies “Well I guess that means I inherit her title shot.”  Max reminds her that the Ladies Champion The Duchess has been told to stay at home.  Taylor says that is not acceptable and tells Max that she wants her title shot and she wants it now.  She tells Max to make it happen and then walks away.

We head back to the ring for our next match.  Adam Jameson comes out first to a good pop from the crowd.  Next, Oswald Zimmerman with Ant Graham come out next to a chorus of booing and hissing from the audience.  Adam seemingly owned this match but just as he was going for a pin, Ant Graham would jump on the apron causing a distraction.  He did this a few times during the match and it got under AJ’s skin.  Adam would continue to chase Ant off but he never went far.  Oswald struggled in the ring against the speed of AJ.  Adam dropped Oswald with a pele kick but Ant was right there on the ring apron causing a distraction. AJ turned, apparently fed up, and started to go after Graham but the bell rang signaling a time limit draw.  Adam was ticked off.  Oswald and Ant quickly hightailed it out of there (a draw is better than a loss).   (20 min draw).

The Savior is backstage and he says he has a message for the masses and says he needs to do this in the ring.  He makes his way out and the fans are not happy with what he did to Drew, the Canadian Love Machine.  The Savior said he had to ‘save’ Drew from the lies and deceit and proclaimed that when Drew returns, if he returns, Drew will thank him.  There is a commotion in the crowd and LOOK, it’s Drew the CLM!  He jumps in the ring and after trading fist smashes, he drops the Savior with a kick to the gut and a DDT.  He then locks the Savior in a crippler crossface and hollers for a mic.  He says he wants the Savior in an I QUIT match and tells the Savior who is yelling in pain to accept the match.  After a minute in the excruciating hold, the Savior agrees to the match. Drew lets go and the Savior rolls out of the ring.  The fans pop for Drew as he celebrates in the ring and the Savior mumbles as he makes his way to the back.

Master Bull is in the back with Reid and he is excited about the win.  “You are BACK, Daddy.”  Reid smiled.  “You’re right.  This was a great win and shows that I’ve found my groove.  With that, I’m ready to get back in the title hunt.  Bull, nothing can stop us and we are destined for greatness.”  They shook hands and then left. 

We were very curious as to what Rad Gumbo was up to so our GM sent a cameraman to follow him.  Gumbo exits the car just outside a Fry’s Electronics Superstore.  Gumbo rushes in and sneaks down a parallel aisle and crouches down.  He waits patiently until his prey passes in front of him and he immediately attacks.  HANG ON…that’s MAGNUM KONE!  Rad just goes to town hitting the unsuspecting Kone with everything from flinging CD’s at him like Frisbees to miscellaneous audio equipment.  He tries to choke Kone out with some Monster Cable ™ wires but Kone battles out of it and smashes Rad with a DVD player.  The two continue into the laundry section where Rad slams Kone’s head into a dryer and Magnum slams the washer lid down on Rad’s arm.   Next, they move on to the Home Theatre room and just start whipping each other into the LED and Plasma TV’s just destroying them.  Rad bodyslams Kone onto the broken glass and he hears the sounds of sirens.  Just as he is trying to get a way, Magnum trips him and Rad crashes into a cable filled storage section and got tangled up in the wires (ala C3PO in Star Wars).   Security and the police bring the scuffle to an end and walk both men out in handcuffs.

We finally cut back to our show just in time for the main event.  This will be the Smashers defending the Tag Team titles against the Muscles.  First, Muscles Thorpe and Weasley come out to the horrendous drowning of booing from the crowd.  I guess they finally alienated the fans.  Next, MJ comes out and introduces the champs Smashers #1 and #2 and they are received with equal disdain.  The Smashers immediately went to town just annihilating the Muscles.  While the beatdown was transpiring, the final member of the Muscles Trio Muscles McGuire made his way down only to be cut off by the Steel Curtain.  The Steel Curtain get a huge pop when they drop McGuire on his head.  They continued to the ring where Muscles Thorpe was complaining to the ref about the distraction.  The Smashers took advantage of it and beat him silly.  Thorpe started to battle back up ended up getting tripped by MJ.   The Steel Curtain then pulled Weasley off the ring and his face smashed hard into the mat.  The Smashers then double teamed Thorpe and hit the Steel Smasher.  Smasher #1 made the cover and got the 1-2-3.  The Smashers retain the belts and they glare at the Steel Curtain.  MJ leads his team away.  Buzz Steel climbs into the ring and pulls Muscles Thorpe into the center of the ring.  Starbuck Steel takes Weasley and sets him up on the Spanish Announce table.  Buzz and Starbuck climbed to opposite turnbuckles and launched themselves – Buzz hitting a flying elbow on to Thorpe in the ring and Starbuck hitting a flying leg drop onto Weasley on the table which broke under the impact.  Starbuck joined Buzz in the ring and the fans chanted and applauded them as the show came to an end.


That is all for now.  Stay tuned.  More to follow.

HCW Wrestling Newsletter 2016 #494


Hello fans and welcome back to our newsletter.  Today’s show will be action packed and we will have 3 title matches tonight as well as some qualifying matches.  Lots of tempers have been flaring as of late and I’m sure tonight will be no different.

Our show kicks off with Jerry Saunders making his way to the ring.  His opponent for the evening is the Axe.  To say that Jerry did much in this match would be an overstatement.  Axe looked just like the guy who won the HCW World title a month ago.  He was on fire.  Jerry did get a bit of offense in after reversing a belly to belly suplex and hitting a Frankensteiner but that summed up the high point for him.  The rest of it was the Axe.  Axe recovered pretty fast from that and proceeded dismantling Saunders.  Finally the end came, after being tossed out of the ring by Jerry, Axe gets back in and nearly decapitated Jerry with ‘the Axe’.  He made the cover and for whatever reason, the ref counted a very slow 1…2…3.  Axe gets the win in dominating fashion.  (16 min)

Backstage, the Steel Curtain (Buzz and Starbuck) were having words with the Muscles Trio.  When the trio tried to bully them, Biceps Bannerman showed up and the trio began to back down.  Muscles Thorpe said that their constant interfering in the Trio’s match had to stop.  The Steel Curtain were costing them money and shots at titles.  Starbuck steps up and says that the two teams should have a match and the winner of that team should get a shot at the Tag Team titles.  The Muscles team laughs at them and says why not make the stipulation better.  The winning team - which will be them of course – also should get a shot at the 6 Man tag team titles too.  Buzz says “anywhere and anytime you sorry pieces of crap want a shot at us, step on over.”  The Muscles Trio walk away laughing.

We head to the ring for our next match which is for the Hardcore title.  The challenger, Leiton Snake, makes his way out first.  He is then followed out by the champion Dr. Red Fang and is manager Ant Graham.   The ref announces that this will be a Lights Out rules match.   Leiton starts off by hitting a Curb Stomp but Fang hits him with a Vampire Lunge.  Leiton Snake tries to bash Fang’s head into a ringpost but Fang neutralizes it.  Snake hits a buckle bomb and Fang battles back and nails another Vampire Lunge.  He makes the cover but only gets a 1 count.  Snake grabs a chair and hits Fang with multiple chair shots.  Fang is down but he makes it back up to his feet at the count of 6.  Snake goes to the corner and removes the turnbuckle cover.  Snake climbs to the top turnbuckle dragging Fang with him and hits a diving somersault neckbreaker. Fang rolls out of the ring to recover.  He gets back in at the 8 count.  Snake tosses Fang out of the ring again but this time follows him out.  Fang then smacks Leiton’s head into exposed turnbuckle and with that he is not only busted open, he looks to be out cold.  Fang rolls back in the ring and sits in the corner.  The ref counts to 10 and Leiton is counted down and out.  Dr. Red Fang retains his title.  The crowd pops as The Fiend appears and attacks Fang and the two fight to the back. (5 min)

The Omegatron lights up and announces the 4th and final member of the 2016 HCW Hall of Fame class and it is none other than MW3!!!.  It is also announced that the Negronomicon will be inducted by his one-time partner/cohort Ron Simmons.

We go back to the ring for our next title match.  The challenger ‘the King of Cones’ Magnum Kone makes his way down first.  He gives fans at ringside ice cream so of course, they pop for him.  He opponent tonight is the US Champion Superstar Chic Monroe.  Monroe gets in the ring and the match immediately begins.  For the first 9 minutes of the match, Kone showed why he was deserving of this opportunity.  However, after that, the champ showed why he is the champ.  Chic kept nullifying any offense Kone tried to come up with.  Finally, after a strait jacket suplex, Chic climbed to the top turnbuckle and connected with a diving headbutt.  He made the cover and got the 3 count.  Superstar Chic Monroe retains his belt.  He takes his belt and leaves.  As Magnum is getting up, in from the crowd comes…the Ragin Cajun Rad Gumbo.  He beats down on Kone and hits a Voodoo Driver.  He stands over Kone as his manager MJ comes out applauding.  Gumbo leaves while the ref checks on Kone.  (15 min)

Max is back in his office and says that since some of the matches are running a bit short, he will extend the time limit to 30 for our next match.

We are back in the ring for the next match and first, Mr. Wrestling #5 comes out and he is then followed by Ant Graham and Baron von Blood.  MW5 started off the match going for a front chancery but that was nullified by Blood who just stood back and laughed at him.  After that, MW5 took control of the match and actually prevented Ant Graham from getting involved for the entire match.  Mr. Wrestling #5 would end up hitting Blood with a front chancery multiple times throughout the match and that infuriated him but his anger didn’t help him tonight.  In frustration he hurled MW5 out of the ring (but was back in pretty quick) and Blood nailed him with Blitzkrieg Stunner. He would go for a pin only to have 5 power out at the 2 count.  The only time Ant got even close to interfering was his jumping on the apron but 5 hurled Blood into him knocking him from the ring.  Mr. Wrestling #5 hit another front chancery and rolled Blood up for the 1-2-3.  Mr. Wrestling #5 is victorious but at the insistence from Ant Graham, Oswald Zimmerman and Karl Braun ran down and attacked MW5.  Oswald hit 5 with the Iron Cross and that was about it.  The 5th Column stood over MW5 and then left together.  (22 min)

In the back, the Cummings twins (Betsy and Felicia) approached Madame Jade and Taylor Bella and challenged them to a tag team match.  GM Max McGillicutty walked over and said that instead of a tag team match, it would be a Fatal 4 way with the winner getting a guaranteed title shot at the Ladies title.  The four women were ready to come to blows right then and there but Max told them to save it for the ring.

We go back to the ring and the Muscles are already there (McGuire and Weasley).  The Steel Curtain (Buzz and Starbuck) came out but were immediately attacked by their opponents.  Finally, they got it into the ring.

Starbuck Steel is counted out!!!


Muscles Weasley wins with an OUTSIDE INTERFERENCE - Count Out over Starbuck Steel!!!  (2 minutes)

The Steel Curtain are PISSED OFF and the Muscles see it on their faces and the trio run off.  Starbuck BREAKS the handcuff and joins Buzz in the ring.  They motion for the Trio to come back but the Muscles have what they want – a shot at the World tag team titles as well as (we assume) a shot at the 6 Man Trophy at the PPV.  We cut to Max back in his office.

“Steel Curtain, I know this is not the outcome that was preferred but sometimes that’s just how the dice roll.  Muscles, based on your win tonight, you get to choose who will represent the Trio when you take on the Smashers at our next show for the World Tag Team titles.  Also, with their win tonight, the Muscles Trio will get a shot at the 6 Man trophy and that will take place at the PPV.”

We go back to to the ring for a fatal four way between Madame Jade, Taylor Bella, Betsy & Felicia Cummings.  The winner gets a future title shot at the Ladies title.  Max came back out and gave them a one hour time limit on this.  Needless to say, they practically needed it.  These 4 beat the holy hell out of each other and were cognizant that they never would fight their own partner.  This went on for a whopping 51 minutes.   As the match progressed, the wearier they all became.  As we approached the end of the match, Betsy blind tagged herself in and went after Jade.  Jade then threw her into the corner just as Taylor was getting in the ring and the two of them crashed into each other and fell out of the ring.  Jade could not believe what just happened.  Felicia, still the legal woman, attacked Jade and choked her repeatedly on the ropes.  After being admonished by the ref yet again, Felicia turned and Jade grabbed her and dragged her face along the ropes.  Felicia fell into the ring and Jade immediately made the cover hooking the leg and getting the 1-2-3.  Madame Jade wins the match and a future title shot.  She thanks the fans and says that if for whatever reason she cannot make the match, she says that Taylor Bella will be her replacement.  (51 min)

Backstage, Reid Rothchild and Angry Jack Lawson are having words and it starts to get violent.  Max comes over and puts a stop to it saying they can have a match at the next show to settle their differences.

It’s time for the Main Event for the TV title:  The Crocodile Hunter (champion) vs Ivan Dragovich.  Ivan comes out first accompanied by his manager Ant Graham.  As the champ makes his way out, Ant tells the ref something and hands him what looks like an envelope (we can’t be sure) and then LEAVES.  Ant tells Ivan he’s “got this” and heads to the back.

We join the match at the 7th minute in.

HCW Wrestling Newsletter 2016 #493


Hello fans and welcome back to our newsletter.   We have a lot of action for you today.  King CJ was told he had to participate in the gauntlet match today without making any more excuses or he’d be stripped of the World title and fired.  We did see him sulking around backstage so we know he’s here.  Also, we know that both the Stache and the Wraith will be in the building today so it will be interesting to see what happens next.

Our action kicks off with the Crocodile Hunter taking on Adam Jameson in a non-title match.  These two put on a hell of show and was a great way to kick off the show.  The fans were on the edges of their seats for the entire match.  Lots of back and forth action.  Adam dropped Croc with lots of Pele kicks and the Adam Clash but Croc battled back with lots of submission attempts.  Just as the time limit was winding down, Croc hit Adam with the Croc’s Throne but then Ivan Dragovich came out for the distraction.  He jawjacked with Croc just long enough for the time limit to expire.  This one ends in a time limit draw.  Ivan gets in the ring and beats down on Croc but the Hunter battles back and dropkicks Ivan out of the ring.  Croc grabs a mic and tells Ivan that he’s poked the bear enough and at the next show, he will put the title on the line and embarrass the hell out of Ivan so he tucks his tail between his legs and runs back to Russia.   (20 min draw)

We cut to the back where we see the Stache enter the building.   The fans pop for him based on his little “home invasion” on the Wraith last episode.  As he gets further into the building, police officers meet him and then ask “Is this the guy?”  The Wraith comes out from the shadows (hiding maybe) and says “Yes, this is the lunatic that broke into my home, destroyed it and almost killed me.”  The police then arrest the Stache all the while the Wraith is laughing like a hyena.    As the Stache is escorted out, the Wraith hollers after him “Can you did that sucka? HAHAHAHAHA.  He turns around and standing right there is GM Max McGillicutty.  Max is not happy.  The Wraith complains “Well, he did attack me and destroy my property so he gets what’s coming to him.”  Max tells the Wraith that he is wrestling tonight.  “Oh yeah, I got the perfect opponent already in mind.  He’s such a badass that I’ll have a tough time with him.”  Max asks who.  The Wraith replies “Turnip.  He is my opponent tonight.”  The Wraith walks away laughing.   Max heads back to his office.

Hollywood Star & Bruce Biltmore head to the ring and say that they want another shot at Hernandez and Wendell and this time they want a no DQ/CO match.  Handsome Hernandez and Wendell Hammerschmidt comes out saying that they’ve beaten the Star and “so-called gold standard” twice now and they feel they have nothing to prove.  Bruce questions their manhood until Hernandez and Wendell accept.  Bruce and the Star tried their damndest but Hernandez and Wendell controlled the match for the most part.  Wendell slaps Bruce with the Red Arrow but ends up getting tossed out of the ring.  Wendell gets back in immediately tries for a pin but the Star breaks it up.   Hernandez is back in and he and Wendell doubleteam Bruce.  Star tries for another save but keeps getting sent out of the ring.  Wendell pulls Star out of the ring and hurls him into the steel steps.  Finally, Hernandez climbs to the top rope and hits a moonsault.  He makes the cover and gets the 1-2-3.  Handsome Hernandez and Wendell Hammerschmidt win this one in solid fashion.  (17 min)

Back in his office, Max finishes a phone call and snickers.  “Oh, this is going to be great” Max says before getting up and walking out of his office.

The Desperados (El Chango and Leon Teremoto) head to the ring.  El Chango says that the one true Desperados team needs to see action.  They call out for any challengers.  Superquake & Angry Jack accept and it looks like we have ourselves an impromptu match.   The Desperados totally owned Angry Jack and didn’t allow him to get any offense in.  After being beaten down for a few minutes, he made the hot tag to Superquake and he began cleaning house.  At the 5 minute mark, Superquake hurled Leon out of the ring in a huge show of strength that got the fans chanting “Holy S*it”.  El Chango, not one to see his team manhandled, grabbed a chair and blasted Superquake with it resulting in a DQ.  ‘Quake turned, seemingly unaffected by the chair shot and nailed El Chango with a chokeslam.  El Chango rolled out of the ring and he and Leon crept up the ramp in shock.  Superquake and Jack sort of celebrated by posing and flexing in the ring but the fans really didn’t care.  (5 min)

The Steel Curtain and Biceps talk about their match tonight against the Hubers.  Starbuck says that this match will be no different than against the 5th Column and they will be victorious again tonight.  Biceps is in the back going Woo Woo Woo and Buzz ends with “Word”.

We go back to the ring and the Wraith makes his way out.  He points to his head (presumably telling us how smart he is) and gets in the ring.   Turnip comes out and he does not want to be in this match but he is told he has no choice.  The Wraith says to give Turnip a change, it will be a no DQ match.  He laughs.  The Wraith began beating Turnip all over the ring.  Poor Emerson only got in 4 moves for the entire match.  The Wraith kept dropping Turnip with backhand chops and when going for the pin, he would pull Turnip up after a two count.  The fans by now are trying to start a “Turnip” chant but it doesn’t do any good.  Commotion erupts from the crowd as the Stache (freed from the police, I’m guessing, from Max’s phone call) rushes the ring and nails the Wraith with multiple clotheslines and then a piledriver.  The Stache pulls Emerson over and drops him on top of the Wraith.  He leaves the ring as the ref counts 1…2….3.  Turnip gets the win!   UNBELIEVABLE!  The Stache gets back in the ring and raises Emerson’s arm and then helps him from the ring.  (11 min).  The Wraith eventually recovers and heads to the back all pissed off.

The Omegatron lights up again with the announcement of the 3rd member of the 2016 Hall of Fame.  It is none other than the Negronomicon.  For those who don’t remember, Negronomicon left to go start his own federation but his plane got caught in the Bermuda Triangle and was never seen from again.  We assume his induction will be In Memoriam.   It is then announced that the Super Warrior will be inducted by his one-time rival Mohammed Hassan.

It is time for our Gauntlet Match.  The rules are announced.  King CJ has to wrestle 3 times tonight and if he loses, he will have to defend his title against the man who beat him.  Each match will have a 20 minute time limit.  If he wins, he does not have to defend the World title until the PPV next month.  King CJ makes his way out and is booed pretty heavily.  His first opponent tonight is the Axe.   Axe comes out and the two go toe to toe.  CJ proved his stamina by taking the Axe to a 20 minute draw.  Axe left disappointed.  Next, Outback Oscar made his way out and that match basically went the same way but Wilber Townsend made his way out and distracted Oscar.  CJ then threw Oscar out of the ring and distracted the ref.  Wilber then dropped Oscar with the “Brother Love’s Traveling Salvation Show” and Oscar ended up getting counted out at the 15 minute mark.  Finally, Sonic Blade came out for the third match.  CJ was definitely dragging and Sonic looked fresh.  Sonic bounced CJ all of the ring and looked really strong.  CJ got lucky when Sonic tossed him into the corner and then charged but CJ moved and Sonic hit the corner hard.   He staggered out of the corner and CJ nailed him with a flying dropkick.  He then hooked the tights (ref didn’t see) and put his feet on the middle rope for leverage.  The ref counted 1..2..3.  King CJ wins this one in crooked fashion.  Sonic tried to tell the ref the tights were hooked but the ref left with CJ.  CJ handed something to the ref (a payout???) and the two of them left.  Sonic left the ring pissed off.  (48 min total for all 3 matches)

We got an update on the Fiend after the attack by Phat Sol.  The Fiend seems to have recovered pretty well but was not happy about the fact that the Ambassador bought his contract only to bury him.  He said he had some stuff to think about before returning to the ring.

It is time for the Main Event.  First, the Huber Clan (Butch, Junior and Ferb) came out with Wilber Townsend.  Wilber got on the mic and said that tonight, the Hubers will make him proud when they bring that 6 man tag team trophy home to them.  He is interrupted when Biceps Bannerman and the Steel Curtain made their way out.   As they make their way to the ring, the Muscles Trio attack them and beat them down before tossing them into the ring.  It only took about a minute for the champs to shake off the cobwebs and they just dismantled the Hubers.  Outback Oscar ended up brawling with Wilber Townsend and the two fought to the back.  In the middle of the horrendous beating, somehow Junior Huber had the presence of mind to throw Starbuck Steel out of the ring.  The Muscles Trio were on him line flies at a BBQ.  They beat him down while the Hubers distracted the ref.  Finally Buzz and Biceps had enough and chased off the Muscles Trio but the damage was done.  Starbuck ended up getting counted out.  The Huber Clan gets the win via a countout but the trophy does not change hands.  The Hubers tried to attack Starbuck but Buzz and Biceps grabbed chairs and chased them from the ring.  Starbuck called for a mic.  “Muscles Trio!  You scumbags!  You run around pretending to be a tough team but all you do is cheat and lie.  Eddie Guerrero, none of you are.”  (the crowd pops)  “Listen, Buzz here loves to talk on the mic and has a real knack for it and normally I’d let him go to town on your sorry asses but I feel I just has to give my two cents.   Huey, Dewey and Louie are nothing more than cartoon characters posing as wrestlers.  Listen, the gist of this is… Muscles Trio…I am putting the challenge out there RIGHT NOW that we – The Steel Curtain and the biggest man in the sport Biceps Bannerman want YOU at Reign of Champions.  Plain and simple…we will beat the crap out of you and you will become an afterthought.”  Buzz steps over and says “WOO WOO WOO” and Biceps leans in and says “Word”.  The three leave the ring.  (21 /2 min for the match; 30 for the segment)

Just as the show is coming to an end, we hear a commotion taking place backstage.  The Wraith attacks Emerson backstage and beats him down.  The Stache (not sure why he didn’t help this time) was standing by with Police of his own and after witnessing the beatdown, they arrested the Wraith for assault and battery.  This time, the Stache laughed as the Wraith was taken away in handcuffs.  The show ends with the Stache smiling and waving as the Wraith departs in the back of the police car.


That’s all for now.  Be sure to stay tuned for more action.

HCW Wrestling Newsletter 2016 #492

https://hwfcswafantasy.blogspot.com

Hello fans and welcome back to our newsletter.  Tonight, we will see lots of action with the Fiend taking on the man who attacked him – Phat Sol.  Sol, now under the guidance of the Ambassador, has turned up the violence a notch or two.  We are still trying to figure out why the Ambassador bought the contract of the Fiend only to turn on him.   Word on the street is that we will hear from him on today’s show.

We head to the ring for our first match.  Missy Chick makes her way down to the ring to a decent pop from the crowd.  Her opponent, Betsy Cummings and her twin sister Felicia head down to the ring to booing from the crowd.  Betsy doesn’t appreciate it and immediately attacks Missy.  After only a minute or so, Missy took control of the match and Betsy didn’t know what to do.  Felicia tried to get involved in the match and the ref immediately sent her to the back.  Without her sister there to provide “strategy”, Betsy struggled.  She managed to hit Missy with a monkey flip but Missy got up, climbed to the top turnbuckle and hit a top rope Missycanrana.  She followed it up with the Missyplex and locked in a guillotine choke.  Betsy, totally caught off guard, tapped out.  Missy gets the win.  Missy celebrated with the fans (did a little dance) before heading to the back.  (10 min)

Backstage, the Ambassador is interviewed.  “Fiend, people ask me why I bothered to buy your contract, get you disqualified and then had Phat Sol attack you.  It’s as simple as this.  There are people who view you as a threat and what better way to squash a threat is to cut it off before it has time to grow.  That is exactly why I did what I did.  Your feelings may be hurt but that’s the least of my concerns.  I can see your “Misfit message” spreading its evil tentacles and infecting everything and everyone you’ve come in contact with.  Your sloppy haircut, Goth makeup etc are sending the wrong message and it’s up to me to prevent that from spreading.  Tonight, you get Phat Sol in the ring but it won’t make a difference; Phat will destroy you and eventually you’ll find you don’t want to do this anymore and you will leave.  On that day, the HCW will be rid of this ‘infection’ and things will go back to being safe and sound.”

We head back to the ring for our next match.  First, Ferb Huber (without his siblings) makes his way to the ring.  Next, Billy Robbins comes out and joins him in the ring.  The bell rings and Ferb decides to leave instead but Billy starts smacking him around to get him ‘riled up’. Billy apparently woke the ‘sleeping giant’ in Ferb because Ferb basically destroyed Billy.  Ferb used brute strength and just tossed Billy around like a rag doll.  After nearly taking Billy’s head off with a big boot to the face, he threw Billy into the ropes and hit a spinning side slam.  He makes the cover and gets the 1-2-3.  Ferb Huber gets a rare singles win.  He stares at the prone body of Billy and then just leaves.  (13 min)

GM Max McGillicutty calls the Ladies Champion the Duchess to his office.  He reprimands her and says that “hurting” someone in the ring is one thing but when you jeopardize their health (referring to El Gato Negro’s allergic reaction), that just crosses the line.  Max says that she is suspended.  And because she will be suspended without defending her title within 30 days, she will be stripped of it. When the Duchess tries to explain why she does this to El Gato, Max says he doesn’t want to hear it.  El Gato walks by and hears this.  She asks Max not to suspend her but to give her a 1:1 with the Duchess once medical clears her to return to the ring.  Max says that it will still be a few weeks until El Gato is back at 100% so Max tells both women to take off for four weeks.  Once they return, they can have their match.  El Gato proposes the match take place at the Reign of Champions PPV in August.  Max likes the idea and says he will grant the Duchess the extra time so she is not stripped of the title.  The Duchess breathes a sigh of relief, sends an evil glance at El Gato Negro and then leaves.

We head back to the ring for our next match which is for placement in the World title top 10.  Outback Oscar vs Wilber Townsend is next up.  Wilber comes out first and is accompanied by the Huber Clan (Ferb, Butch, and Junior).  Wilber has them stay at the top of the ramp and heads to the ring.  Next, Outback Oscar comes out and he quickly passes by the Hubers as to not get attacked.  Wilber stuns Oscar with a lifting sideslam.  He goes for a quick pin and surprisingly got a 2 count.  Wilber then drops Oscar with the Go To Sleep.  He then hits a scoop powerslam but Oscar locks in the Outback Stretch.  Wilber taps out.  Outback Oscar gets the win in 3 minutes.  The Hubers rush the ring and start to beat down on Oscar until the 6 Man tag team trophy holders the Steel Curtain (Buzz and Starbuck) and Biceps Bannerman hit the ring.  All 8 men are in the ring and after getting dumped out of the ring one by one, Wilber and the Huber Clan slowly back up the ramp.  Wilber says that the 6 Man trophy holders are a sad excuse for champs and says that the Hubers want their shot at the trophy.  Starbuck gets on the mic and says they accept and can do the match next show. Wilber and the clan depart.  The 6 man champs shake hands with Outback Oscar and then they all leave.

Master Bull meets up with Ravishing Raquel.  Bull agrees to step back from attempting to manage her career and says he will remain behind the scenes to provide a point of view if she ever needs it.  She agrees that this is best.

Wendell Hammerschmidt vs Travis Ryzing is next on the card and both men are already in the ring.  Wendell began beating the tar out of Travis and the Dark Storm just couldn’t manage to stay on his feet long enough to mount an offense.  Luck changed when Wendell climbed the top turnbuckle and as he was trying for something, Travis hit the ropes causing Wendell to fall back into the ring.  Travis picks him up and locks in a power full nelson.  Wendell taps out.  Travis ‘Dark Storm’ Ryzing gets the win in 5 minutes via submission.  Both men leave the ring fairly quick.

GM Max McGillicutty comes out and announces the Gauntlet match but via Omegatron, CJ appears says he’s not ready.  He blabbers on about a scratchy throat or something and says they need to postpone the match until next week.  Max gets pissed and says that if CJ does not wrestle at the next show in the gauntlet match, he will be suspended and stripped of the title.

Next up is Ravishing Raquel vs Lexy Flexx.  Lexy comes out first and then is followed by Ravishing Raquel.  Raquel looks very determined and doesn’t waste a minute.  Raquel dominated the match and never let up.  It looked like this one was going to run into a draw but Max showed up on the Omegatron and said that this would now be a no-time limit match. Raquel didn’t need much extra time to get the job done.  After knocking her down with a clubbing smash to the back, she locked in an ankle lock.  Lexy screamed in pain but Raquel quickly turned it into a pin attempt and 3 seconds later, Raquel has her arm raised as the winner of this match.  (22 min).  She left almost immediately after the match ended.

The Omegatron lights up and the second member of the Hall of Fame is announced and it is none other than the Super Warrior.  For those who don’t remember, SW idolized the Ultimate Warrior and modeled his life and career after the former great.  It is also announced that Donnie B will be inducted by ‘The Nature Boy’ Ric Flair.

We cut to the home of the Wraith who had not been seen since his cowardly attack on the Stache (don’t ask how we found his house).  The Wraith nervously continues to peak out his windows.  He picks up the phone and calls GM Max McGillicutty saying he’s still “sick” and can’t come in today.  Max tells him he can’t keep hiding out forever.  In fact, Max says that the Wraith has a match next show and if he doesn’t show up for his match he will be fired.  The Wraith hangs up as the doorbell rings.  The Wraith looks outside to see a delivery truck.  He asks “who’s there” through the door and the driver answers “Candygram for Mongo, er I mean the Wraith”.  The Wraith’s face lights up and says “Wraith like candy” and opens the door only to be greeted by…the Stache!  Stache throws the open box of candy at him (he helped himself to some) and then beat down on the Wraith.  The two fought all over the place and ended up in the kitchen.  The Wraith exclaimed “BEER BREAK” and stopped to drink a beer while the Stache stood there watching.  The Wraith was taking his time so he helped himself to a shot of whisky.  The Stache got tired of waiting and after chucking his glass against a wall, he went back after the Wraith who got startled and spilled the rest of his drink down his front.  The two fought into the living room and stopped to look at a Wraith Family picture (awkward!!!)  Wraith took off through the house and ran upstairs.  The Stache then started beating him with whatever household items he could find.  At one point, the two were dueling with broomstick handles making lightsaber sounds.  The Stache then broke the broom handle over the Wraith’s head and then took him out onto the balcony (hey, he has a nice view).  The Stache then HURLS the Wraith over the railing and he plummets to the swimming pool below (the people in attendance started a HOLY SH*T chant).   The Stache makes his way outside and when he looks for the Wraith, he is nowhere to be found.   The Stache mumbles under his breath “crap” and then leaves as police sirens sound in the distance.

It is time for our main event.  GM Max McGillicutty comes out first and announces that this will be a no time limit match.  First, the Fiend makes his way down to the ring and gets a pop from the fans.  Next, the Ambassador leads Phat Sol out to booing and hissing from the fans.  They make their way to the ring.  The Ambassador yells at the Fiend saying he will never be anything more than a jobber.  Before the match could begin, the Ambassador put handcuffs on the Fiend with both hands behind his back. What resulted next was nothing short of a blood bath.  Phat destroyed the Fiend and without the ability to fight back, all he could do was take the beating.  By the time Phat was done with him, the Fiend had the Crimson Mask on.  The ref was getting ready to stop the fight when Phat made the cover and yelled for the ref to make the count.  The ref counted 1…2…3.  Phat Sol gets the win after 10 minutes of total annihilation.  Medics come out and after cutting the cuffs off, they loaded the Fiend to a stretcher and took him to the back.  The Ambassador and Phat celebrated in the ring while the fans threw junk at them in the ring.


That is all for now.  Hopefully we will have an update on the Fiend’s condition very soon.
