<p>Ruthless from JT and the Main Event Mafia, really like the mentions of the situation with the locker room segment and Lynx. Really added to the gravitas of what happened last week. The TV title felt all encompassing on this show, which I liked.</p><p> </p><p> Huge win for Blake Belushi. Is that Big Mac's first pinfall loss or am I forgetting something?</p><p> </p><p> Love The Wayne family being brought together by Will. Never thought we'd see them all back on the same page, but this is as good a reason as any!</p><p> </p><p> Luke Steele continues to entertain, and a paintball fight for the RAW TV Title. This company is insane <img alt="" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/biggrin.png.929299b4c121f473b0026f3d6e74d189.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> and I mean that in a good way! Can't wait to see that unfold. It's stuff like this that makes me wonder if the CornellVerse has someone like Jim Cornette. I'd pay to see a version of Cornette react to some of this stuff!</p>

Acid vs Christopher Ball Jules Night vs Keith Vegas Jason O'Conner vs Blue Dragon Silver Tiger vs Robbie McNamara Greg Hennig vs Charlie Corner Colossus vs Gringo Star Denny King vs Jason Patterson Jack Griffith vs Kalder Tagg Not confident with my predictions given I've gone all left side, but this was a really good intro. Loved the style of this and will be following!

Spoiler Report: Results From USPW FTR’s March Taping! Spoiler Report: Results From USPW FTR’s March Taping! USPW “development program” begins tournament to crown first Champion! The following report comes from a TotalExtremeWrestling.com contributor, who was present at the second set of “USPW: FTR” tapings. This report contains spoilers for the next four episodes of the USPW Plus exclusive show, and the show order is per the information given to fans on the day. Given the nature of the shows, things may change between now and the broadcast. USPW FTR episodes premiere on “USPW Plus” on Friday nights, and are available worldwide. The show is available via the Reverie add-on service, USPW Plus, which also features USPW’s entire back catalogue.<hr color=red><hr color=blue>USPW News From FebruaryAs well as signing Valiant, it was reported that USPW had also signed CWA Women’s Champion Amber Allen and their “senior official” Eugene Williams. Rumours of cash-flow problems for the CWA followed the two departures, with USPW apparently “blowing them out of the water” in terms of the contracts the two talents were offered. Tyson Baine signed what was described as a “short-term” extension to his USPW contract. Apparently there were some issues between Allen Packer and Pablo Rodriguez during the negotiations, with Baine getting mixed messages from the company. Eventually, everything was resolved, and his match with Joss Thompson will not be Tyson’s last in USPW. Chris Caulfield confirmed via social media that his short return to USPW was over, after he was defeated by Steve Frehley. Caulfield said that he had great fun, and answered “never say never” when asked if he was open to another return in the future. Tiffany Jade signed a new three year contract to stay with USPW. “The Green Dragon” is said to have received a significant raise with the extended deal, the former two time Womens Champion clearly a big part of plans going forward. <hr color=black>

My response in bold

<p>Back up to date now, and while I didn't make notes as I went through this time, everything on the shows is so enjoyable. Everyone having such a defined character is something I always strive for, but have never done to such a degree as this. </p><p> </p><p> Will and The LibertTeens/Croft stand out in my memory, Big Mac looking a monster too. The Buck Night Brawl was fantastic, with the segments around it as well. </p><p> </p><p> Captain and Swoop at the wedding felt like a huge moment. The wedding, particularly the song. Wow. There is one quote I wanted to post, but it might get me banned <img alt="" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/biggrin.png.929299b4c121f473b0026f3d6e74d189.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> was it supposed to be sung to the tune of "I Want It That Way"? Because that's naturally what I went with <img alt="" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/smile.png.142cfa0a1cd2925c0463c1d00f499df2.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p><p> </p><p> Then you top it off with that ending. Loved it.</p>

Pariah seemed to be favouring her ribs, while the back of Gorgon was her main source of discomfort. Aware that each other had a weakness, the two competitors targeted these spots, and were both taken off their natural game as a result. Pariah started well, desperate to get revenge on Gorgon, who cost her the chance to beat Alicia Strong fair and square, 10 nights ago. The incisive offence of Pariah served her well early on in the match, but a repeat of that night saw the tables turned.</span></span></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"> </span></span></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"> As Pariah dived from the inside of the ring to the outside, looking to take Gorgon down, the monstrous former Womens Champion caught her. Gorgon drove Pariah ribs first into the Steel Post, before dropping her onto the guardrail, once again targeting the mid section. Gorgon returned to the ring first, and Pariah was only able to avoid the countout by less than a second. The larger competitor was straight back on top of her opponent, and Gorgon set up for a “Hydra Bomb” (Crucifix Powerbomb). The move that started this rivalry, could have been the one to end it, had Pariah not slipped out of the back. From here, Pariah looked to lock in the “Lullabye” (Kata-Ha-Jime), but Gorgon’s size made it much more difficult than usual.</span></span></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"> </span></span></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"> Gorgon and Pariah continued to struggle, Pariah desperate to put Alicia Strong’s newest associate to sleep, and to send a message to the USPW Womens Champion. Gorgon showed great strength as Pariah refused to release her grip, and drove “The Lone Wolf” into the turnbuckle. Despite this, Pariah still maintained her position, remaining on the back of the former USPW Womens Champion. Gorgon’s only hope, as she appeared to begin to fade, was to climb to the second turnbuckle, carrying her opponent’s weight, and drop backward on top of Pariah. When she did this, Pariah finally had to release her grip, and both women laid on the canvas.</span></span></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"> </span></span></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"> Gorgon remained on top of Pariah in this position, with both women looking up at the lights. Moving first, as the referee got in position to count a unique pinfall “attempt”, Pariah quickly recovered from the landing, and reapplied the “Lullabye” (Kata-Ha-Jime). Both women were on the canvas, and Gorgon no longer had the strength to return to her feet. Gorgon battled back to a seated position, but it simply wasn’t enough.

That friendship would be put aside for the match however, as the commentators questioned if the inexperienced Texas Express could pick up the first title victory of their careers.

Seemingly turning his back on the dark side, Tyson Baine appears for the first time in his USPW career, to be looking out for someone other than himself or his Titans teammate T-Rex. Since the reemergence, Joss Thompson has done everything in his power to avoid Tyson Baine. Many put this down to a fear of “The Angel of Death”, but Thompson insists that this isn’t the case. Laying down his perspective during an interview with Danny Jillefski, Joss Thompson said that Tyson Baine was a “fraud”, and claimed that his avoidance of him was down to that. Not many people were buying the idea that Joss Thompson wasn’t afraid of Tyson Baine, until it was revealed that it was “The Complete Package” himself, who had requested this match at Red, White & Blue!</em></span></span></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"> </span></span></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"> From the moment that Tyson Baine began to make his entrance however, Joss Thompson once again appeared to want nothing to do with him. This back and forth, between being up for the fight and then suddenly not, continued to confuse the commentators. As the match began however, this appeared to be a deliberate tactic to tire the veteran figure, with Joss Thompson showing off his cardiovascular advantage by giving “The Angel of Death” the runaround. Quickly growing weary of this, Baine decided to simply stand his ground in the ring, encouraging Thompson to come and face him.</span></span></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"> </span></span></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"> Instead of focussing on his opponent, Joss Thompson decided to pick an argument with a fan at ringside. The man told Joss Thompson to get back in the ring, and Thompson in turn told him that he’d get in the ring, when the man did. This was a clear delay tactic, and it did buy him a few more seconds. Eventually, Joss Thompson did return to the ring, but the fan wisely didn’t follow. When the two finally engaged physically, Tyson Baine took control of the match, with Joss Thompson flying all across the ring, as Baine remained largely stationary. The powerful offence of Baine appeared to surprise Joss Thompson, who perhaps expected him to have lost a lot of his explosiveness in his time away. He hadn’t, and scored a nearfall following a Chokeslam to “The Complete Package”.</span></span></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"> </span></span></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"> Joss Thompson had to go back to the drawing board, and did so successfully, as he began to turn the tide in the match. From there, it became a much more back and forth affair, with Joss Thompson gaining more and more ground as Baine began to tire. The athletic and arrogant Thompson began to run rings around Tyson Baine, and despite there always being the threat of a big power move from Baine, he wore “The Angel of Death” down.</span></span></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"> </span></span></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"> Tyson Baine’s final flurry saw him struggle to lay a glove on Joss Thompson, and a vicious European Uppercut put him on jelly legs. Thompson was then able to pick his moment, hitting a “Jumping Cutter”, and pinning Baine for the 1… 2… 3!</span></span></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"> </span></span></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"> </span></span></div></div></div></div></div><div style="text-align:center;"><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"><strong>Winner:</strong></span></span></div></div></div></div></div><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"> Joss Thompson (pinfall in 11:18)</span></span></div></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><p></p><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"> </span></span></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"> Following the victory, Joss Thompson had his arm raised in the air, and a smug look on his face having defeated the man many had claimed he was “afraid” of. Overcoming an iconic figure in USPW, this felt like a landmark victory for the former World Champion. Now was his time to get back on track.

What Brandon saw as him sticking up for Chris Caulfield, Frehley took to be Smith getting "ideas above his station". An attack the following week put Smith out for two weeks, but "The Bulldozer" wouldn't be kept down. When the contest got underway, this fighting spirit was evident, as Smith took the fight to Frehley early on. As billed, this match was the most physical of the night so far, a "wild brawl" that went all around the ringside area. Eventually, the referee had to get things back under control, and with the threat of the match being thrown out, both men complied. </span></span></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"> </span></span></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"> From here, Brandon and Frehley remained on an even footing, but eventually, the famed "ruthlessness" of Steve Frehley took hold of the match. Once Frehley was in control, as is almost always the case, he refused to allow it to be wrestled away. Now able to break down his sizable opponent, Frehley went for the kill. While Smith avoided a first "Dark Destroyer Spear", a subsequent attempt to hit the "Bulldozer's Blade" (Back Drop Driver), resulted in him receiving a stiff back elbow to the temple. Brandon was rocked, and Frehley took advantage. Hitting a "Dark Destroyer Spear", followed by a "Frehley's Comet" (F-5), Steve picked up the victory.</span></span></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"> </span></span></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"> </span></span></div></div></div></div></div><div style="text-align:center;"><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"><strong>Winner:</strong></span></span></div></div></div></div></div><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"> Steve Frehley (pinfall in 13:32)</span></span></div></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><p></p><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"> </span></span></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"> Feeling that he had made a statement with his victory over Bulldozer Brandon Smith, Steve Frehley stood tall in the ring, over his downed opponent.

Winning the vacant title at Stars, Stripes & Slams, Alicia Strong has once again proved that there is no level she will not stoop to, in order to remain the top dog in USPW. On the episode of American Wrestling after Strong had controversially won the title, she found herself seconds away from being defeated by Pariah, the woman many felt had deserved to win the title at Stars, Stripes & Slams. The involvement of The Muscle Monsters - who both laid their hands on referee Baby Jamie - saved her, but resulted in them being barred from ringside for all future Alicia Strong matches.</em></span></span></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"><em> </em></span></span></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"><em> Of course, Strong had a “plan B”, and when Pariah got another non-title opportunity to face the Champion, Gorgon emerged, shockingly aligning with “The Sensational One”. Given the history between Alicia Strong and Gorgon, nobody could quite believe that the former arch-rivals were now standing side by side. Perhaps Alicia’s most despicable act yet, Wednesday’s American Wrestling saw her push both Pariah AND Gorgon from the stage to the ground below. This proved once and for all, that when it comes to maintaining her position, Alicia Strong is willing to do whatever it takes.</em></span></span></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"> </span></span></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"> The focus being on Alicia Strong before a Womens Championship match is not surprising, and is certainly something Sara Marie will have experienced before. The commentators did their best to put over the threat of Sara Marie, a former Womens Champion herself, but they too mostly spoke about the increasingly questionable actions of Alicia Strong. Once the match got going, Sara Marie clearly felt she had something to go out and prove, and with Gorgon almost certainly in no state to get involved, she did get a fair shot at the Womens Championship. What followed was an evenly contested, back and forth match, with both competitors coming close to victory on a number of occasions. One thing it is easy to forget with Alicia Strong, is that despite all her shenanigans and shortcuts, she is still undoubtedly one of the best wrestlers in the world. This is what she showed as the match went on.</span></span></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"> </span></span></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"> When it came to the finish, Sara Marie briefly looked the most likely to walk away as the winner, but Alicia avoided an “Energy Burst” (Shining Wizard) attempt, and drove Sara Marie into the turnbuckle. Having taken issue with Nicky Champion using the move last month against Steve Frehley, Alicia Strong hit Sara Marie with a “Strong-Arm Tactic” (Running Forearm) of her own, as the challenger staggered back towards the center of the ring. That move, which had won her father so many Championship matches in years gone by, was enough to end the contest. A clean, decisive victory for Alicia Strong.</span></span></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"> </span></span></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"> </span></span></div></div></div></div></div><div style="text-align:center;"><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"><strong>Winner and </strong></span></span></div></div></div></div></div><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"><strong><em>still</em></strong></span></span></div></div></div></div></div><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"><strong> USPW Womens Champion:</strong></span></span></div></div></div></div></div><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"> Alicia Strong (pinfall in 15:02; 1st successful defence)</span></span></div></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><p></p><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"> </span></span></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"> Comfortably the longest match of the night so far, Alicia Strong stood tall in the ring, raising the Womens Championship high in the air.

While the footage was largely focussed on “Business Era” Rich Money, and post-2014 return Rick Law, there were plenty of “talking head” pieces featuring Danny Jillefski (USPW Founder, who signed both men to the company), James Justice (long-term friend of Rick Law) and Captain USA (the man with whom Law became a USPW Tag Team Champion in 2002, and who was defeated by Rich Money in 2003 for the USPW World Championship). There was also some “USPW Plus Exclusive” footage, which showed fairly poor quality clips from Rick Law and Rich Money’s earliest days in the company.</em></span></span></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"><em> </em></span></span></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"><em> The later parts of the video package put over one specific thing, the difference in tangible success that the two men have had. Without naming promotions, their ventures outside of USPW were touched on, with Danny Jillefski talking about how Rich Money reached the “top of the mountain”, while Rick Law came up just short of the summit. That trend continued in USPW, with Rich Money enlisting “The Business” to help him become a 3 time USPW World Champion. Rick Law on the other had, has faced personal and professional struggles in recent years, and feels tonight may be his last opportunity to capture the elusive “big one”.</em></span></span></div></div></div></div></div><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"> </span></span></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"> </span></span></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"> Telling the story of this match from the opening bell, the commentators made viewers aware of the fact that - as far as USPW management were concerned - the fired members of The Business (Charlie Thatcher, Dusty DuCont and Rajah), were not at the building. Sterling Whitlock did join his mentor at ringside, but in the opening stages at least, kept out of the action.</span></span></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"> </span></span></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"> Rick Law in particular put over a big fight feel as the match began, and took in the reception of the Dust Bowl Fields. There has been an outpouring of sympathy for Rick since he revealed his recent struggles, and this translated into support from the USPW fans. Rich Money on the other hand, couldn’t care less about the people, and is an expert at exploiting any weakness in an opponent. If anything could be pinpointed regarding Rick Law, it was perhaps that he was </span></span></div></div></div></div></div><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"><em>overly</em></span></span></div></div></div></div></div><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"> emotional, and Rich Money looked to take advantage of this over exuberance. While Rick Law did have a good start, and fed off the energy of the fans, Rich Money eventually took control, slowing the match down to dictate the tempo.</span></span></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"> </span></span></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"> The challenger clearly grew frustrated as his early momentum began to fade, but this was exactly what The Champion wanted. The more desperate Rick Law was to gain a footing back in the match, the more mistakes he would make. Rich Money clearly felt so in control during the match, that the ultra-focussed USPW World Champion began to have a little bit of fun. This was the first time we’d seen Rich Money smile in a very long time, but without his usual back-up plan, he refused to take his eye off the ball. Eventually, Rick Law turned to sheer brute force, battling his way to gain some footing in the match. These small slithers of hope brought the crowd back into the match, and there was a great reaction from them throughout the contest.</span></span></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"> </span></span></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"> From here, things snowballed, and Rich Money could feel his grasp on the match loosening.

Money smirked, and thought he had put the fire out, but Law kept it stepping. Rich Money was overwhelmed by Rick Law for the next few minutes, and with the Champion down, Rick signalled for the “Long Arm of The Law” (Lariat Clothesline). Everybody in the building knew what was coming next, apart from Rich Money. As Rich dragged himself up by the ropes, Sterling Whitlock grabbed his mentor’s head, and said something in his ear. Money rolled himself to the outside, and rested on the apron, safe from Rick Law’s signature move. This was where the crucial mistake was made.</span></span></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"> </span></span></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"> “The Enforcer” was desperate to get Rich Money back in the ring, but arguably moved too soon. Going between the top and middle ropes, Rick wanted to drag his opponent towards him, but got caught out. Rich Money was able to grab Law’s head, and drove his throat into the second-rope, sending him back towards the middle of the ring. Sterling Whitlock’s presence had proved vital, and without getting involved physically, he’d completely changed the course of the match.</span></span></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"> </span></span></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"> </span></span></div></div></div></div></div><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"><span style="font-size:8px;"><strong>Emily McQueen:</strong></span></span></span></div></div></div></div></div><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"><span style="font-size:8px;"> And if anybody is wondering why Sterling was spared the chop from Rich Money’s employ, that’s your answer.

Rick Law had done everything he could, but Rich Money’s “network”, even at reduced manpower, has always been the difference between the two. The harsh lesson for Rick Law tonight, was that doing things the right way, doesn’t always win you the day. Rich Money had the challenger right where he wanted him, and a “Money In The Bank” (High Lift German Suplex) put Rick Law down.

Whitlock was clearly very keen to emphasise his involvement in the victory, and it certainly didn’t go unnoticed.

On USPW American Wrestling, we’ll find out where Rick Law’s head is at, and what the future holds for the man who called tonight his “last chance” to become the USPW World Champion.</span></span></div></div></div></div></div></div></blockquote>

Well done to the winners, almost feels like there's too many good diaries to keep up with at the minute! Such a great variety on display here!

Nice thread, really love looking at the alumni of C-Verse promotions, and MAW are one of the most interesting. Cool to see it all laid out, and having not had a long-term game in TEW 2020 yet, I hope they fair better than they tended to in my 2016 saves. Always hated seeing them go out of business

USPW Red, White & Blue Preview USPW Red, White & Blue Preview “From The United States… To The World!” Date: Saturday, Week 4, February 2020 - Location: Dust Bowl Field [sOLD OUT] - Broadcasting: Worldwide... only on Reverie!<hr color=red><hr color=blue> USPW World Championship Rich Money © vs. Rick Law Dubbed by Brock Cornish as USPW’s “most historic rivalry”, the stories of Rich Money and Rick Law’s careers are inseparably linked when it comes to their time as members of the USPW roster. Both considered “USPW Originals”, having worked for the promotion from its roots as a small independent organisation, Rich Money and Rick Law were both tempted to the then “big league promotions”, and achieved great success elsewhere. While Rich Money rose to the very top, becoming a World Champion for the promotion he moved to, Rick Law didn’t. Much like in his USPW career, Rick Law did everything but become the World Champion. One of the biggest names in Pro Wrestling history to have never held a World Title, Rick Law returned to USPW in the build up to Thanksgiving Thunder 2014, and has become a cornerstone of the company ever since. Winning the National Championship, and then the World Tag Team Championships with James Justice, success hasn’t been hard to come by for Rick Law… but the “big one” has evaded him. Largely, because of the man he faces at Red, White & Blue. Having left USPW over a year after him, Rich Money returned to the promotion just two months after Rick Law. It didn’t take long before the storied history between the two came to the fore, and the rivalry has continued in some form over the last five years. Rich Money goes into this match as a 3-time World Champion, and by those metrics, it's clear that he has had more “success” than Rick Law in USPW. However, as one of the most beloved figures in the history of the company, Rick Law is just one step away from a “complete set” of USPW Championships. Law himself however, feels this could be his final chance… Opening up about his recent issues, Rick Law spoke on American Wrestling about his fears that if he can’t beat Rich Money at Red, White & Blue… he never will. On that same show, Rich Money was seen to fire every single member of The Business, barring his protege Sterling Whitlock. If everything is as meets the eye, this is surely Rick Law’s greatest ever opportunity to fulfill his ultimate dream, as he looks to join the handful of “Triple Crown” winners in USPW history!<hr color=red><hr color=blue> USPW Womens Championship Alicia Strong © vs. Sara Marie When it comes to women’s wrestling in USPW, the spotlight is very rarely off Alicia Strong. Since becoming the Womens Champion for an 8th time at Stars, Stripes & Slam, this has been more true than ever, with American Wrestling becoming “The Alicia Strong Show” over the last few weeks. Sara Marie will understand that she faces a huge challenge at this “Special Broadcast Event”, but can take spirit from the fact that The Muscle Monsters are barred from ringside, a ruling made earlier this month, after they laid hands on an official. Alicia does now have herself a new “associate” however, as her career-long rivalry with Gorgon seemingly came to an end, in one of the most shocking moments in USPW American Wrestling history. Gorgon saved Strong from certain defeat to Pariah, and stood shoulder to shoulder with the woman who she once tried to drive out of USPW. Again, Sara can take some positives from the fact that Gorgon will be otherwise engaged on the night of Red, White & Blue, but if we’ve learned one thing about Alicia Strong this month, it’s that there’s no level that she will not stoop to, in order to remain the USPW Womens Champion.<hr color=red><hr color=blue> USPW World Tag Team Championships Jett & Moor © vs. The Texas Express Having been on fire since the beginning of the year, Jacob Jett & Julius Moor have defeated Natural Storm two times in 2020, and as World Tag Team Champions are clearly the team to beat. While inexperienced as a duo, Jett & Moor have worked incredibly well together, and on an individual level have a great deal more experience than their opponents, The Texas Express. The key question going into the match, given the young Cooper Christie & Turk Trenneman have over 3 years more experience as a team than Jett & Moor, is whether years working together, or overall years in-ring is more important to a tag team. Previously not considered to be “tag team specialists”, Jett & Moor have surprised everybody with their natural chemistry, but face a team with an equally impressive record in 2020. Both teams come into this Tag Team Championships match with 4 wins and 0 loses in this new decade… but at Red, White & Blue - for one team - that undefeated start will come to an end.<hr color=red><hr color=blue> Gorgon vs. Pariah One of the most anticipated matches on the Red, White & Blue card, this will be the first time that Gorgon and Pariah have ever faced off. Recently, Pariah has found herself as one of the most talked about members of the USPW roster, her rise to prominence coming off the back of an incredible first year in the company. Going into 2020, her sights were clearly set on the USPW Womens Championship, and at Stars, Stripes & Slams she came extremely close. Since then, she has caught the attention of Alicia Strong, who has done everything in her power to avoid a fair one on one match. When the involvement of The Muscle Monsters, during the first singles match between the two, led to Glorious Gloria & Juliette King being barred from ringside during all future Alicia Strong matches, the Womens Champion turned to plan B. Gorgon. A former USPW Womens Champion herself, Gorgon has appeared less frequently in USPW over the last 12 months, with some suggestions that she was winding down her career. However, two weeks ago on USPW American Wrestling, Gorgon shockingly involved herself on behalf of Alicia Strong, saving the Champion from Pariah’s deadly “Lullabye” submission hold. This shocking moment was followed up, on the final segment of American Wrestling before Red, White & Blue, when Alicia Strong sacrificed Gorgon, to push both women from the stage. Neither Gorgon nor Pariah can possibly be at 100%, after being stretched out of the building just 3 nights ago, but both women will be up for the fight, on this “Special Broadcast Event”.<hr color=red><hr color=blue> Bulldozer Brandon Smith vs. Steve Frehley Coming off the back of his defeat in the main event Stars, Stripes & Slams, Steve Frehley took his aggression out on Chris Caulfield, destroying him on American Wrestling in under 2 minutes. The nature of Frehley’s victory, and his conduct after the match, didn’t sit well with Bulldozer Brandon Smith, who confronted “The Destroyer” after the bell. The following week, Frehley lived up to his moniker, taking Brandon Smith down and attacking him on two occasions during the night. While Bulldozer missed a week of action following the attack, he was back on this past Wednesday’s American Wrestling, where Steve Frehley confirmed the two would go one on one at Red, White & Blue. Steve Frehley claimed that Bulldozer Brandon Smith was the latest in a long line of USPW roster members looking to boost their profile on the back of stepping up to him, and “The Destroyer” was going to make sure he was the last. At Red, White & Blue, Brandon Smith is up against one of the toughest challenges of his career, but an upset victory over Frehley would certainly catapult him towards the top of the card. No matter what happens on Saturday night, this match is likely to be the most physical on the show, with both men known for bringing their intensity to the ring.<hr color=red><hr color=blue> Hawkeye & Wolf vs. The Sharpshooters Having failed to earn a place in “The Business”, after being unable to sufficiently impress Rich Money, Kirk Jameson & Trent Shaffer were brought together by the rejection. Forming a team known as “The Sharpshooters”, the two men looked to make the biggest impact possible, jumping enemy of The Business, Nicky Champion. There’s no bigger scalp to take in USPW than “Hawkeye”, and while Kirk Jameson couldn’t defeat him on Wednesday’s American Wrestling, the pair will have another shot tonight, in tag team action. Running Wolf is a close friend of Nicky Champion, and given their work together as a team previously, was a no brainer choice to be his partner on this night. Hawkeye & Wolf go into this one as the overwhelming favourites, but Shaffer & Jameson are confident that they can make a huge statement at Red, White & Blue.<hr color=red><hr color=blue> Joss Thompson vs. Tyson Baine One of the stranger rivalries to develop in USPW over the past few years, the second episode of USPW American Wrestling saw Tyson Baine stand up to Joss Thompson, as he mocked various members of the USPW alumni. Since then, Joss Thompson has been “haunted” by Baine, with what appeared to be a very clear phobia of “The Demon” developing. Thompson denies this however, and despite all evidence to the contrary, explains that his behaviour is due to his belief that Tyson Baine is a “fraud”, who he didn’t want to share the spotlight with. Joss’ position changed in recent weeks, as he became something of a laughing stock within the locker room. Facing his fears (despite what he claims), Joss Thompson challenged the unlikely “hero” to a match at Red, White & Blue, a contest which Tyson Baine will go into with the crowd on his side. Once considered to be “irredeemably evil” in the eyes of the fans, Tyson Baine has certainly changed his perception with some of the USPW faithful. Victory over the arrogant Joss Thompson would surely gain him even more favour with the fans, but he must remember that as a former USPW World Champion himself, Joss Thompson is one of the company’s most impressive in-ring competitors.<hr color=red><hr color=blue> Natural Storm vs. The Cold Warriors Two teams that have never seen eye to eye, Natural Storm and The Cold Warriors will once again find themselves up against each other, after Petr Novak & Krusher Karloff reignited the rivalry at the beginning of the year. Given the nature of the attack, and it taking place during the “USPW DECADE Awards” ceremony, The Cold Warriors were reportedly disciplined after that show. Petr Novak’s reaction to this “verbal warning”, where he apparently shouted in the face of a Reverie executive in front of the entire roster, resulted in him being suspended for 28 days. When he returned, and The Cold Warriors were back in action, they seemed to have forgotten about their incident with D.C. Rayne & Eddie Howard. Natural Storm hadn’t forgotten this. A brawl between the two teams drew the attention of The Commissioner, James Justice, and this classic tag team rivalry will continue at Red, White & Blue. Despite this being one of the rare occasions where neither team are in the conversation for the USPW World Tag Team Championships, victory here is still hugely important, as the personal animosity between the two sides has reached an all-time high!<hr color=red><hr color=blue> <hr color=black> Thank you, I hope I can build on that and keep the women's roster in a prominent position. There are a few who could integrate, but I also think the roster can definitely stand on it's own two feet. Plenty of talent on the roster, and a fair few names outside of USPW who would fit in well. As I move closer to implementing a brand split, I think more women coming in has to be a priority. Thanks, I think I've already said how much I love Rick Law as a character in the C-Verse, so win or lose I'll do my best with him after this title match. Casey has the Valentine stigma, so I'd be surprised if he's ever fully trusted, but he's doing his best Alicia Strong has become my main priority in this diary now, partly because of Jaime Quine's injury, but also because of the feedback about her character. I always intended her to be the focus in terms of female competitors, but now I feel like I should be aiming to make her the biggest name in the business! Thanks, I am going for the sympathy route with Law, but I can also see that I maybe haven't set him up as a fully credible challenger. That said, Rich Money is at his most vulnerable, so we'll see Alicia and Pariah having poor chemistry is such a shame, but I'm not going to let it get in the way of the story. I think the characters are meshing really well, so the matches being a bit substandard is something I'm willing to deal with. Just means I need to work even harder on building the storyline around them.

USPW American Wrestling - Week 4, February 2020 USPW American Wrestling “From The United States… To The World!” Date: Wednesday, Week 4, February 2020 - Location: Illinois State Park in Springfield, Illinois - Attendance: 15,000 [uSPW American Wrestling begins with a recap package that dramatically recounts the ending of last week’s show. Alicia Strong looked to be on the brink of defeat to Pariah, when her “nemesis” Gorgon appeared and saved her from being put to sleep by the “Lullabye”. Belle Bryden’s commentary is replayed, with the former USPW Womens Champion in complete shock at what went down. Gorgon hit Pariah with a “Hydra Bomb”, resulting in a disqualification victory. Most shocking, was the image of Alicia Strong and Gorgon stood shoulder to shoulder, standing tall as American Wrestling went off the air...] Brock Cornish: Ladies and gentlemen… welcome to USPW American Wrestling. “From The United States… To The World!”, exclusively here on Reverie. As you’ve just seen, there’s only one place to start. Belle, I’m going to let you take this one. Belle Bryden: You know, Brock, I couldn’t believe what I was seeing last week… and I can’t believe it now. Alicia Strong and Gorgon. Side by side. Alicia Strong and Gorgon. They say that anything can happen in this business… Alicia Strong and Gorgon. There’s your proof. Emily McQueen: And as we all come to terms with that, we have Red, White & Blue this Saturday. Tonight, in the main event, Melody and Sara Marie will put friendship aside, as they compete for the right to face Alicia Strong at that event. The USPW Womens title will be on the line this weekend, and speaking of the Champion… here comes “The Sensational One”. Brock Cornish: And brace yourself, Belle. She’s not alone…<hr color=red><hr color=blue>[Alicia Strong walks down to the ring with her head held high, an overt attempt to convey her lack of any negative feelings regarding her actions last week. Strong has obviously heard everything that has been said about her, and walks to the ring with Gorgon. While it is undeniable that this is a bizarre sight, Alicia desperately acts as if this isn’t the case.] [Once in the ring with a microphone, Alicia Strong hands the USPW Womens Championship off to Gorgon. Having legitimately held the title before herself, this perfectly demonstrates how the dynamic between the two has shifted.] Alicia Strong (speaking to all four sides of the building): Shame on you all. Shame on those three stooges at ringside (pointing to Belle, Brock and Emily), and shame on every single one of you who has sent a message to me on social media, this week. I don’t read any of them, obviously, but the person who does that for me, tells me that almost without fail, every message has been passing judgment on my actions last week. I’ve been informed that our “viewers” aren’t happy with this particular scenario, and if this was a movie then this would be “unrealistic character development”. [Alicia Strong shakes her head, and looks to Gorgon. Gorgon shakes her head too.] Alicia Strong: But this isn’t a movie… this is real life! This is my real life. A life that has been played out on your television screens, and I’m disgusted by how many people seem to think that they know who I am. Let me make one thing clear… none of you know me. I may have grown up in front of your eyes, but this is what happens when you thrust somebody into the spotlight at an early age. You people have projected an image on to me from the first day that I stepped foot in a wrestling ring. I was a teenage girl trying to figure out who I was, when you all decided who I would be for the rest of my life. You took every virtue that my father expounded, and you placed that pressure on my shoulders. My father is a great man, but I am not Sam Strong. That larger than life character, the role model to millions, the real life superhero. (Alicia pauses, it is rare these days that she speaks so candidly) That’s not who I am. Nicky Champion may live every second of his life asking “What would Sam Strong do?”, but I don’t need to do that. My name is Strong… but I am Alicia Strong. The first, the only… “The Sensational” best wrestler on the planet. And the 8-time USPW World Champion! [This “natural break” in the promo is Pariah’s cue to make her way out from the back, and the woman who was screwed last week heads straight to the ring.] [Pariah looks to be more interested in Alicia Strong than the monster who attacked her, but is stopped in her tracks by Gorgon. Pariah is fired up, but Gorgon is stronger than “The Lone Wolf”. Alicia Strong remains in the ring, as the two women trade blows on the outside. Pariah looks to be getting the better of Gorgon, when Alicia Strong escapes up the ramp. Pariah turns her attention towards following Alicia, but has her hair grabbed by Gorgon as the Champion heads to the back. Gorgon throws the distracted Pariah into the Steel Steps, and follows Alicia up the ramp. As Pariah looks to pursue the strange bedfellows, James Justice comes out to the stage.] [Pariah tries to walk straight by The Commissioner, but Justice puts an arm out to stop her.] James Justice: Pariah, I know you’re mad as heck right now, but I want you to calm down. You know I’ll give you what you want, but I need you to be patient. [Pariah has no interest in that option, considering the fact that she could quite easily find Alicia and Gorgon and fight them in the back.] James Justice: You’re not going to get to face Alicia until after Red, White & Blue… but I can give you Gorgon on Saturday. All I need you to do is keep calm, bide your time and wait for the right moment. [Pariah looks interested in facing Gorgon at Red, White & Blue, and does accept the fact that Melody or Sara Marie will be the one to face Alicia Strong on Saturday. Pariah grabs the microphone from the hand of Commissioner Justice.] Pariah: I’ll keep out of your way until after that number one contendership match, Justice… but once that next title match is confirmed… I’m not promising anything! [Pariah then hands the microphone back to James Justice, who seems relatively pleased to hear that the rest of the show will go ahead with no further incident from Pariah.] Brock Cornish: There it is… great work from James Justice, and I can’t wait to see that match on Saturday. The monstrous Gorgon… versus “The Lone Wolf” Pariah! Belle Bryden: What a challenge that will be for Pariah! She’s riding that wave of momentum right now, but she’s going to have to move a mountain at Red, White & Blue. Emily McQueen: If she does manage that, then I wouldn’t want to be the USPW Womens Champion, knowing that Pariah was coming after me!<hr color=red><hr color=blue>[Heading over to footage from “earlier today”, Lionel Greenwood is seen catching up with Nicky Champion as he entered the building.] [Lionel asked Nicky about the attack from Kirk Jameson & Trent Shaffer last week, and what he intends to do about the duo known as “The Sharpshooters”. Champion was surprisingly laid back about the situation, saying that he was going to go to James Justice, and get a match against one of them. Returning to ringside, it’s confirmed that Nicky did exactly that, and will face Kirk Jameson in the opener.]<hr color=red><hr color=blue> <hr color=red><hr color=blue>[Prior to the next segment of the night, the commentators introduce a recap package of the third episode of “USPW FTR” from this past Friday on “USPW Plus”.] [Highlights from the show included a star-studded tag team opener, as well as Funky Fedora vs. Jimmy Parsons in the main event. This video package also featured this week’s “USPW Plus” showcase, which focussed on the legendary Tyson Baine. This Saturday at Red, White & Blue, “The Angel of Death” will step into the ring with Joss Thompson.]<hr color=red><hr color=blue>[That look back at Tyson Baine’s “best moments” was followed by a sit-down interview with Joss Thompson, ahead of that huge match at Red, White & Blue. “USPW Founder” Danny Jillefski was the man firing the questions at “The Complete Package”.] Danny Jillefski: Joss, for the past two months, you have found yourself locked in this bizarre rivalry with Tyson Baine, with nobody quite sure what “The Angel of Death” wants from you. Throughout it all, you have done everything in your power to avoid Tyson, leading to many suggesting that you’re afraid of the former USPW World Champion. However, I have had it confirmed that it was in fact you who requested this match at Red, White & Blue on Saturday. Can you explain the thought process behind challenging the demonic “Angel of Death”? [Joss Thompson takes a moment to compose his answer, having shook his head and sighed throughout the question being asked. He clearly wasn’t happy with the way Danny had presented it, and leaned towards the USPW founder as he answered.] Joss Thompson: Danny, you can give Tyson any nickname under the sun. BLZ Bubb, The Angel of Death, The Demon. I don’t care. What I call him, is a freak, a creep… and crucially, a fraud. You know if I had a buddy in production, I could turn the lights out too, you know? Danny Jillefski: But it’s more than that with Tyson, Joss and… Joss Thompson: You’re going to let me finish, Danny. As I was saying, this man has built his career on smoke and mirrors. On intimidation and fear, and now that he isn’t that unstoppable monster… he’s coming for me. You see the last refuge of a once great warrior, is to go out fighting for something. Tyson Baine has been described as everything from “pure evil” to the “devil himself”... and now we’re supposed to believe he’s out here to protect Chris Caulfield? Give me a break. The same Chris Caulfield we saw him set fire to once on this very programme? But it’s perfect, because these guys seem to think that we all have 5 second memories. Well bad luck, because this USPW Plus that they’ve been plugging every 5 minutes… it’s got you banged to rights, Tyson. [Danny Jillefski tries to get things back on track again, but Joss isn’t done.] Joss Thompson: I’m getting there, Danny… because to everybody on the outside looking in, this is about fear. Roger Cage wants to gain favour and ridicule me for wanting to get away from Tyson Baine, but the fact is that the entire locker room is sick of those guys. Tyson Baine wants to show up and get people talking off the back of my name. But I’m not here to play a game of wits with a moron… so I removed myself from the situation. See Tyson Baine can think that he’s winning the “mind games”, because to put it bluntly, Danny… there’s no way he’s winning a wrestling match. Now I’m finished. [Joss Thompson gets up from his seat, and Danny Jillefski signs off on the interview. He promotes Red, White & Blue, this Saturday on Reverie, where Joss Thompson will go one on one with Tyson Baine.]<hr color=red><hr color=blue> <hr color=red><hr color=blue>[Heading to the back, Melody approaches the slightly less experienced Sara Marie, who she will face in the main event of tonight’s show. The winner will go on to face Alicia Strong for the USPW Womens Championship at Red, White & Blue.] [Melody tells Sara Marie that whatever happens tonight, this is all about Saturday. Whichever one of them goes on to face Alicia Strong will have the whole USPW fanbase behind them, desperate to see the Champion put back in her place! Melody says that tonight they’ll both give everything they have, and may the best woman win. Sara Marie agrees with the words of Melody, saying that this is all about taking the title from Alicia Strong, and getting the Womens Championship back on the right track.]<hr color=red><hr color=blue>[Continuing from where his previous vignette ended, Enygma is shown from a side-on view, looking towards a hand that has been extended to him. Around him, the dark room he has resided in for almost two months is still only illuminated by the flames that surrounded him.] [Clips from each of the vignettes we have seen from Enygma over the last 7 weeks are shown once again, before we return to the current situation. Enygma looks to the hand, and this time reaches out. The arm then pulls Enygma out of the room, as the vignette fades to black. On screen, we see “Enygma Returns…”]<hr color=red><hr color=blue> <hr color=red><hr color=blue> USPW American Wrestling - Reverie Exclusive - “From The United States… To The World!” <hr color=red><hr color=blue>[Returning to the second hour of the show, the commentators introduce a video package, chronicling the recent issues involving Rich Money’s “The Business”. While he will face Rick Law at Red, White & Blue, and defend the USPW World Championship in the process, Money has been facing internal battles since the beginning of the year. Charlie Thatcher, Dusty DuCont, and particularly Rajah have been the focus of his anger, with Sterling Whitlock largely getting off scot free. Rich Money appears to be reaching the end of his tether with the current line-up of the group, and Brock Cornish suggests that if Money loses his title this Saturday, he may well be pushed over the edge.]<hr color=red><hr color=blue> <hr color=red><hr color=blue>[Heading to the back, Casey Valentine is seen approaching Nicky Champion in the locker room. From where they were at the start of the year, Nicky Champion looks happy to see Casey Valentine, a sign of how their friendship has developed.] [Nicky Champion thanks Casey for stepping in earlier, after The Sharpshooters jumped him after the match. Hawkeye says that he knows he can deal with Kirk Jameson and Trent Shaffer himself, but he’s glad that Casey has his back. That brings Casey onto why he’s here. Valentine says that he’s heard Nicky Champion will face The Sharpshooters at Red, White & Blue, and since he needs a partner, Casey wondered if it could be him. Nicky said he’d love that… but he’s already got a partner. He tells Casey that he’s sorry, as Running Wolf walks in.] [Casey Valentine put his hands up and apologises to the pair, saying that he knows they’ve been working together for a while, and he isn't trying to step on any toes. Running Wolf laughs, and tells Casey not to worry about it. He says it was a nice offer, but they’ve got it covered. Casey smiles, and tells Hawkeye & Wolf that if they need anything, he’s got their back. When Casey leaves the room, Champion turns to Wolf and says, “you know… he’s a good kid”. Running Wolf nods his head in agreement.<hr color=red><hr color=blue> <hr color=red><hr color=blue>[Prior to the main event, Brock Cornish, Belle Bryden and Emily McQueen run through the card of this Saturday’s Red, White & Blue event.

Exclusive Report: Valiant Set To Sign With USPW! Exclusive Report: Valiant Set To Sign With USPW! Former SWF World Champion “agrees terms” with USPW - CWA Champion Next? Reports coming out from backstage at last night’s American Wrestling show in Newark, New Jersey, suggest that after weeks of speculation, Valiant has informed USPW that he will not be resigning with the Supreme Wrestling Federation. This comes as a huge blow to the Eisen Brothers led promotion, who made a substantial “final offer” to Valiant as he entered the final 28 days of his contract. Sources within USPW have shared exclusive information with TotalExtremeWrestling.com, with suggestions that the company intend to make him the fourth highest paid member of the roster (behind Nicky Champion, Rich Money and Steve Frehley). Valiant will sign a 5 year deal with the company upon the expiration of his SWF contract, which would make him available for three episodes of USPW American Wrestling before March’s “Liberty & Justice” event. Whether he would make his debut before that show is unknown, but another huge “steal” from the SWF is sure to get more eyes on the USPW product. The 39 year-old Valiant was widely viewed as a “SWF lifer” until recently, and is said to have held a great amount of loyalty towards Richard Eisen, the man who made him a star. Since Richard’s retirement, and the consolidation of Rocky Golden as the new figurehead of the promotion, Valiant is said to have been more open to the idea of working elsewhere. The financial might of the world’s largest promotion has once again proved a decisive factor. SWF are perhaps at their most vulnerable right now, having slipped further behind USPW since Eric & Jerry began running the promotion in 2019. The Reverie owner Allen Packer is said to be keen to widen that gap. Once again making clear their objective to “monopolise” the Pro-Wrestling business, USPW have also reportedly agreed terms with CWA “Head Official” Eugene Williams, who will return to the United States after almost a decade in Canada. While this may not seem like a huge deal in isolation, part of the reasoning behind the signing is the company’s increasing desire to promote a “brand split” within their roster. Sources suggest that Eugene was brought on board to serve as the “Head Official” of the USPW’s potential second show. CWA Womens Champion Amber Allen is also on the radar of the promotion, who have sent out feelers ahead of her upcoming contract renewal talks with CWA. Amber’s status within the Canadian Wrestling Alliance, and the fact she is significantly more well known in Canada than the US, both play into the favour of her staying put. However, in terms of finances, USPW are on an entirely different planet to their Canadian counterparts, and are keen to bring in more established names from around the world. Ultimately, this could be enough to end Amber Allen’s 9 year stay in Canada, and see her return to her home nation full-time. These signings would once again point towards a renewed push to dominate all major wrestling markets from USPW, with Reverie setting out at the beginning of 2020 for them to become the number one wrestling promotion in every country in the world. Pablo Rogriguez’s role as “Head of Pro-Wrestling Operations” seems to have refocused that drive, and given his knowledge of the business, and that of those he has brought on board to assist him, a USPW dominated landscape could well be the future of the wrestling world. As always, TotalExtremeWrestling.com will be the first with any updates on the stories discussed above, including the potential debut date of Valiant in USPW!<hr color=black> Yeah, it's playing off the "top guy" always seeming to get away with that kind of thing. Being a dick but apparently it's okay because they're the beloved babyface. Particularly parts of Hogan and Cena's booking are in mind when booking Champion in that way. The Business line-up is weak when you consider Rich Money seemingly has unlimited resources. I get the vibe he's tried to do it on the cheap and just brought together people who he found in catering. That's got him so far, but I feel like the group could definitely be strengthened... Cena is definitely in mind when booking Nicky. There's a bunch of guys below that Nicky Champion level, and I'm going to play Running Wolf, Casey and Rick all being second fiddle to him into an upcoming storyline. I'm glad Alicia is coming across well, and the whole goal has been to give Pariah that push to the next level. Pariah was somebody who I really didn't take to when I first looked through the roster, and her being part of the F.B.I. sting seemed odd to me. But when I started booking her, something just clicked. I think she's going to be a major star. The women's side of the roster is the main thing I'm looking to build up. Everything else is at the level I want it at, but I'd like to build a few women up to star/major star level. With the brand split I have in mind, I want the Womens title to be perceived as the very top title on one of the brands. How things will go between now and then will decide if I do that, but it's something I'm aiming for. Glad to hear you're enjoying it Thank you, Pariah will get her chance to shine. The more heat on Alicia, hopefully the more satisfying it will be when someone knocks her off her perch! Thank you, I think it says something in Gorgon's bio about them being real life friends due to their rivalry, and that gave me the idea of putting them together. With The Muscle Monsters out of the picture in some ways, I thought the idea of Alicia stooping even lower than ever before would work. I was worried I'd over done it, but I think given how we know Belle feels about Alicia, it fits her. Just when you think we're going to get an even playing field, Alicia does something completely unexpected Like I said, getting the women's side of the roster seen as on equal footing with the men is one of my main goals. In recent years when booking WWE, or in this case USPW, I've tried to avoid the use of "women's division" in general, as it seems like odd wording to me. I get the reason it's used, but in an ideal scenario down the line, I'd have just as many females on the roster as male, and it would just be "men's roster" and "women's roster". I don't think it's a major point, and I don't bat an eyelid when I hear women's division in real life. But when writing out shows, and making sure not to present the women as just an afterthought, I always feel weird calling it the "women's division". Like it's a sideshow off doing it's own thing to fill time. If I'm trying to present otherwise, I don't think I'd call women's wrestling just a "division". That's completely off on a tangent, and completely on me, but the point is that eventually I'd like there to be "Men's World Champion" and "Women's World Champion", "Men's Tag Team" and "Women's Tag Team". As long as the men have the "World Championship" and the women just have the "Womens Championship", the titles are never going to be perceived on the same footing. But again, that's one for the long-term, because in terms of overness and sheer numbers, there's clearly a disparity. With the C-Verse though, and the USPW roster, I really think it's something that is feasible, and hopefully I'll make progress on that in the coming months.

Loved Obi Lox in Milan. His aside with the model who was just happy to let Bret go made me laugh. A group of handsome models beating people up feels like it would actually fit perfect on the RAW roster! The Council and the whole scenario really was great to follow. Lynx as yoda perfect! There's so many handsome blond men in RAW. I'm hyped to see where this goes in the "normal episodes" now. BatSwoop caught me off guard... the general absurdity of the Hotdog was very funny too. "Slimy onions fall off him as he runs, he licks his lips leaving mustard saliva all over his mouth." really made me want to see justice served. Such a disgusting character Like I said the other week, I can't imagine how much fun Swoop would have had making that Gilbertrix, the white text thing was fantastic! As was the whole thing, and how it came round at the end. Lynx is absolutely brilliant. Loved how it tied into the RAW Open Invitational. Really enjoyed that, hope to see another "Movie Night" at some point in the future.

USPW American Wrestling - Week 3, February 2020 USPW American Wrestling “From The United States… To The World!” Date: Wednesday, Week 3, January 2020 - Location: Plum Park, Newark, New Jersey - Attendance: 15,000 [uSPW American Wrestling begins with a video package looking back at the events of last week’s episode. At the end of the show, after they’d teamed up to defeat The Business, Rick Law & Nicky Champion stood tall in the ring with their partners Casey Valentine & Running Wolf. Champion took a microphone, and put his endorsement behind Rick Law, supporting “The Enforcer” in his challenge of Rich Money for the USPW World Championship!] Brock Cornish: Good evening USPW fans… and welcome to American Wrestling! Belle Bryden: We’re here, only on Reverie! And what a show we have for you tonight… Emily McQueen: That’s right Belle, I don’t know about you, but I’m looking forward to that huge main event. While it may be non-title, Pariah will get her chance to face Alicia Strong, right here tonight! Belle Bryden: You bet I’m looking forward to it! And speaking of Alicia Strong… here she comes right now. At least she looks a little less angry than she did last week, I just hope she stays away from us. Emily McQueen: As long as you stay calm, Belle. Personal feelings aside, this isn’t worth getting fired for...<hr color=red><hr color=blue>[Making her way down the ramp, Alicia Strong is the first person to make their entrance this week, and she takes a microphone from ringside. Appearing to have calmed down from last week, the USPW Womens Champion enters the ring.] Alicia Strong (disingenuous): First of all… allow me to welcome Belle Bryden back to the show! [Alicia Strong claps for the recently returned commentator, who had been off TV following an incident involving the USPW Womens Champion.] Alicia Strong: And from the bottom of my heart, I mean that. Because last week, we all learned something. Information that is dangerous in the wrong hands, but James Justice thought it wise to share with the world. In USPW, you can do whatever you want… with zero repercussions. That is unless you're a friend of mine. Because if, like Glorious Gloria & Juliette King, you dare to step out of line one time... then you are permanently banned from watching your friend compete. If you’re “staff” like Belle Bryden, you can slap me across the face and keep your job… but if you're an “associate” of mine, your punishment lasts forever. [Alicia Strong shrugs, despite all her success, recent years have seen her develop a “victim” mentality. She feels that USPW wants to write her family name out of the history books.] Alicia Strong: But tonight, I won’t let that get to me… and I am happy (Alicia feigns a smile) to face Pariah in the main event! Sure I beat her at Stars, Stripes & Slams… and sure she couldn’t beat me two weeks ago, but apparently some people just get opportunity after opportunity after opportunity. I wouldn’t know anything about that, but I do know that I’m ready to kill this little “wave of momentum” dead in its tracks. I won’t need Glorious Gloria, and I won’t need Juliette King… but I do proudly welcome them back to USPW, as they put down Belle Bryden’s little pet projects once and for all… [unable to avoid another shot at Bryden, Alicia Strong points to the entrance way, as Glorious Gloria & Juliette King return to American Wrestling. They hadn’t been seen since laying their hands on referee Baby Jamie a couple of weeks ago, but tonight they would finally face Lily & Rose.] [As Alicia Strong headed up the ramp, she embraced both of her “Triumvirate” partners, hugging them in a show of solidarity.] Emily McQueen: You know, everybody deserves a second chance, and whatever you think of them, I know this is going to be a great opener to American Wrestling! Belle Bryden: You’re damn right, Emily. Debbie & Kate have been waiting weeks for this!<hr color=red><hr color=blue> <hr color=red><hr color=blue>[Heading to the back, Kirk Jameson & Trent Shaffer - who appeared to agree to form an alliance last week - are interviewed by Lionel Greenwood. They will make their debut as a team up next.] [While the two men spoke over each other during the interview, having clearly not yet found their rhythm as a duo in that respect, both Jameson & Shaffer were delighted to be teaming together, and couldn’t wait to show the world what they were capable of. Lionel Greenwood also asked them about the experience of being “rejected” by Rich Money as potential members of the business, a claim they both denied. Shaffer said that Rich told them they’d hear from him in due course, and that they were still under consideration. Jameson added that it’s only been two weeks, and they were confident that after he sees them in action as a team, Money would be getting them measured up for tailor-made suits!]<hr color=red><hr color=blue>[Prior to the next match of the night, the commentators introduce a recap package of the second episode of “USPW FTR” from this past Friday on “USPW Plus”.] [During the show, Christy Higgins defeated Hellcat Hernandez, before former main roster member Anthony Trask defeated another American Wrestling alumni, Morgan Malone. The full show is available on Reverie add-on service “USPW Plus”, with new episodes debuting every Friday! USPW Plus also features every single USPW event from company history, all available in one place - for the first time ever...]<hr color=red><hr color=blue> <hr color=red><hr color=blue>[Heading over to the locker room, the USPW World Tag Team Champions, Jacob Jett & Julius Moor, are shown speaking with Cooper Christie & Turk Trenneman, The Texas Express.] [Jett & Moor told the youngsters that they’d been impressed with their victory last week, and said that having shared the ring with Shockwave themselves, it was no easy task. The Texas Express thanked for them for their support, and said they’d be keeping an eye on the Champs tonight, as they face the returning Cold Warriors!]<hr color=red><hr color=blue> <hr color=red><hr color=blue> USPW American Wrestling - Reverie Exclusive - “From The United States… To The World!” <hr color=red><hr color=blue>[Hour 2 of American Wrestling begins with an interview segment in the back, Lionel Greenwood stood by with Pariah. Tonight, Pariah will go one on one with Alicia Strong, in a non-title match.] Lionel Greenwood: Pariah, two weeks ago, you faced Alicia Strong in singles competition, and the whole world saw this… [On the screen behind Greenwood, footage shows Pariah locking in the “Lullabye” to Alicia Strong, making her pass out in the ring. Alicia Strong would have been defeated, had The Muscle Monsters not assaulted the referee and caused the match to be thrown out.] Lionel Greenwood: While many feel that you deserve a shot at the USPW Womens Championship, how do you feel tonight… knowing that The Muscle Monsters are barred from ringside, and you’ll get your hands on Alicia Strong in a fair fight? Pariah (stoic): Greenwood, I’d be lying if I told you that I wasn’t in this to become the Champion. Everybody is. And I’d also be lying if I told you that I didn’t think that I deserved to be challenging for that title tonight, or at Red, White & Blue. But James Justice has decided that either Melody or Sara Marie are next in line, and I have to accept that. While I’m not ruling out Alicia Strong having something else up her sleeve tonight… my only focus is on putting her to sleep in the main event. Then, I can focus on who I need to put down to become the USPW Womens Champion!<hr color=red><hr color=blue> <hr color=red><hr color=blue>[switching gears, the commentators introduce an interview conducted “earlier today” with Steve Frehley. “USPW Founder” Danny Jillefski had been tasked with speaking with “The Destroyer”.] [Jillefski calls back to the incident last week, which he was present for, as Steve Frehley attacked Bulldozer Brandon Smith in the medical room backstage. Earlier in the night, Frehley had jumped Brandon at ringside, resulting in an injury to his neck. Danny says that with Bulldozer not in the building tonight, he wants to ask Frehley why he did what he did last week. There is a tense atmosphere throughout the interview, and Steve Frehley is clearly trying to make Danny feel as uncomfortable as possible. He says that Danny knows exactly why he had to do what he had to do last week, and Brandon knew it too. Frehley says that Bulldozer wanted to act like a “big man” by getting in his face two weeks ago, but at that same moment he knew there would be repercussions. Jillefski asked Steve if he felt that the punishment fit the crime, suggesting that Frehley had perhaps overreacted with the two attacks in such quick succession. Steve Frehley responded by saying that Jillefski, like everybody watching this interview, will never get it. They’ve never had a territory to protect, so they can’t pass judgement on his actions. Steve finishes by saying that this issue is between Bulldozer and USPW management now. If Bulldozer Brandon Smith decides he wants to step up to Frehley again, he knows where to find him.]<hr color=red><hr color=blue> <hr color=red><hr color=blue>[Cutting away from ringside, as The Cold Warriors struggled back to their feet, Nicky Champion was interviewed by Lionel Greenwood.] [Champion spoke with Greenwood about his endorsement of Rick Law as the number one contender to the World Championship, saying that if there’s anybody who deserves the chance to humble Rich Money, it's him. Nicky Champion admitted that he too was desperate to get his hands on both Rich Money and the USPW World Championship, but couldn’t say much more as he was jumped during the interview.] [Kirk Jameson & Trent Shaffer, who debuted as “The Sharpshooters” earlier tonight, laid into “Hawkeye”, catching him completely unaware. The two men, who had unsuccessfully “applied” to become members of Rich Money’s “The Business”, remained intent on proving their worth, and had chosen Nicky Champion as their victim. Before anybody got the chance to “run them off”, Kirk & Trent were out of sight. Heading back to ringside, the commentators wondered if this was some sort of “initiation” from Rich Money, or whether the two men were simply acting of their own accord...]<hr color=red><hr color=blue>

Looking forward to this!

Just realised I had two episodes to read! Love this line: "Lynx explains all he did was facilitate a group hallucination". Coming in half way through a gauntlet was cool too. Really think Croft is going to be a threat with the whole band behind him. "Bit last week isn't it" from Swoop got a laugh too. More Gimmick Doctor skits have lots of potential. Interested to see what other stuff he comes up with! Frogue's whole character, but also the way he set up the match with The Captain, was really well done. His interaction with M.E.M afterwards too. And his dynamic with Swoop is so good, even when they're not directly feuding it feels like there will always be stuff between them. That pre-main event segment almost endeared me to Frogue. "In a picturesque meadow Manhunter is running through the daisies with Matty Wills on his back who is giggling as he holds on tightly." between that line and the image above it, I don't know what to say. Brilliant poor Matty Wills. Will Beaumont and Momma Wayne what an episode! Huge ending too... glad I had the next episode to go straight into.<hr>JT and the Main Event Mafia opening definitely gives JT the rub after losing last week. Great way to open the hour. I thought Matty's dream/the hallucination was coming true for a second there! Interesting tease and I'm looking forward to where they both go. "Naturally there will be no payment, but you’ll get lots of exposure for working with someone of my stature." fits Blake so well. The Cluesome Twosome are such great characters to have. The way they can sort of be placed into any storyline, while not neccessarily doing much significant in terms of their own careers, makes them a really fun part of the show. Loxley is such a good guy! Almost too nice... Loving the character development of Frogue! The rebranding of the LiberTeens is brilliant. Never thought the Croft's son storyline would lead to this, but it's great. "I mean we were forced to sign over our past, present and future. Can you legally own our past?" "What are you a lawyer?! He realises his mistake." Great last segment. Didn't see that debut coming, but the whole trip to Europe leading to that is so good. Two great episodes!

USPW American Wrestling - Week 2, February 2020 USPW American Wrestling “From The United States… To The World!” Date: Wednesday, Week 2, February 2020 - Location: The Dust Bowl in Nashville, Tennessee - Attendance: 15,000 Brock Cornish: Good evening and welcome to USPW American Wrestling… from the United States… to the World! Emily McQueen: And of course, exclusively right here on Reverie! We’ve got a lot to talk about from last week, Brock, and we’ll get to that later. Right now, The Business “employees” who were defeated on USPW FTR’s debut episode this past Friday on “USPW Plus” are in the ring… and we expect Rich Money to join them any minute. [The music of Rich Money hits.] Brock Cornish: So let's head right over to the ring… to see what the World Champion has to say!<hr color=red><hr color=blue>[Charlie Thatcher, Dusty DuCont & Rajah stand in the ring, and the USPW World Champion makes his way down the ramp with his protege Sterling Whitlock. Unlike the others, Whitlock wasn’t involved in The Business’ embarrassing defeat to Captain Australia, Fro Sure and Kip Keenan on USPW FTR this past Friday.] [Once in the ring, Rich Money demands a microphone from ringside. Sterling Whitlock hands it to him, as the leader of “The Business” walks by Charlie, Dusty and Rajah, giving them each a once-over with his eyes.] Rich Money (cold): Before I address any of you… get the footage up. [Rich Money points to the big screen, and footage plays from the debut episode of USPW FTR. During the main event of the show, Charlie Thatcher, Dusty DuCont & Rajah represented The Business, against Captain Australia, Fro Sure & Kip Keenan. At the end of the match, Rajah was pinned by Captain Australia.] Rich Money: Now I want to see Stars, Stripes & Slams. [Rich is in Rajah’s face as he says this. It’s clear that he holds him mostly responsible for the failures of the group.] [Footage then plays from Stars, Stripes & Slams. Casey Valentine, Rick Law, Fro Sure & Kip Keenan defeated The Business, with Rajah sustaining the fall.] [Rich Money remains silent for a moment, while looking down on Rajah. Clearly, he feels the point he is making is self-evident.] Rich Money (in Rajah’s face): Are you starting to understand what my problem is now? (Rajah looks away) Because I’ve got a really big problem to deal with! [Rich Money then turns his attention to Charlie Thatcher and Dusty DuCont, making it clear that these two haven’t escaped his attention.] Rich Money: (looking up to Charlie & Dusty): And could one of you two possibly give me a reason I’m keeping you around? I hired the pair of you because you’re big, dumb and you followed orders. When you’re not doing the job I need you to do, why would I keep paying you? [Dusty DuCont goes to speak, but the more experienced Thatcher gives him a nudge. He knows that when Rich Money is in this kind of mood, it’s best to say nothing. Rich then appears to make a snap decision, turning back to Rajah.] Rich Money: Rajah… get out of here. (Pointing up the ramp.) Out of the ring, out of my sight, out of the building. I don’t want to see you, I don’t need you… just go. That’s my decision. Now let's move on. [Rich Money draws a figurative line under everything, and turns to continue his promo. Rajah looks to Charlie & Dusty, and then to Sterling. Whitlock copies Rich’s gesture, pointing towards the exit. As Rajah leaves, The Commissioner James Justice comes to the top of the ramp.] James Justice: Hey, Rich… do you want to share the good news or should I? (Rich just glares at Justice.) Ladies and Gentlemen, three qualified members of the USPW medical team have assessed your World Champion tonight… and he’s cleared to compete! [James Justice smirks at Rich Money, having successfully closed one of the World Champion’s favourite loopholes.] James Justice: And keeping those… what was it? Big, dumb idiots? Keeping those guys around might just be the smartest “business decision” you’ve made for some time, Rich. Because tonight, you return to action in the main event, as the four of you in the ring… face Casey Valentine, Nicky Champion, Running Wolf… and my old partner, your old rival… Rick Law! Brock Cornish: Now that is a main event! [Rich Money obviously isn’t happy with the announcement, and despite his group’s experience together, his look suggests he isn’t all that confident. James Justice leaves, following one last remark to the USPW World Champion.] James Justice (tongue in cheek): Good luck tonight… Champ.<hr color=red><hr color=blue>[Following the opening segment, the commentators promote tonight’s show and recap last week’s, as footage airs from the ending of the previous episode. At the end of the night, after Sterling Whitlock and “Business Applicants” Kirk Jameson & Trent Shaffer were defeated by Casey Valentine, Nicky Champion & Running Wolf, the USPW World Champion headed to the top of the ramp.

The two men will be part of tonight’s main event, teaming against The Business.] [Rick Law gets the pleasantries out of the way, before asking Nicky if they can talk about a sensitive subject. Champion says sure, and Rick says that he heard Nicky talk about going after the World title last week, but asks that if the opportunity arises, would he have any issue with Rick taking it? Nicky laughs, and says that he doesn’t make the matches around here, despite what half the roster thinks. If James Justice decides Rick Law deserves a World Championship opportunity, then Nicky would only have one thing to say. Rick asks what that is, and Nicky responds “go and take that title from Rich Money!” Rick and Nicky then shake hands, and agree to forget about all that for tonight, and focus on putting The Business down in the main event.]<hr color=red><hr color=blue>[Returning to ringside, Pariah makes her entrance ahead of the second scheduled match of the evening. As she walks down the ramp, footage plays from last week’s episode. In the opening match of the night, Pariah had Alicia Strong beat, only for The Muscle Monsters to take out the referee. While everybody in the building saw what had happened, the match was thrown out, the USPW Womens Champion escaping without a loss on her record. Once in the ring, we see Pariah has taken a microphone.] Pariah: You won’t see me holding a microphone very often, so when I do… you better know I got something to say. ALICIA STRONG! Get out here right now… you know I had you beat last week! [instead of coming to the top of the ramp, we see Alicia Strong on the big screen above the entranceway. She clearly has no intention of becoming physically involved with Pariah tonight. Especially considering Glorious Gloria & Juliette King are banned from the building.] Alicia Strong: You know, Pariah… for somebody who just got pinned at Stars, Stripes & Slams… and who couldn’t get the job done last week… you seem to think you’re owed something… Pariah (fired up): I had you beat Alicia… and you know it! Alicia Strong (laughing): Okay, I must be missing something here. And I’m going to be the first to say it, because the entire planet seems to have a collective blindspot. What part of you applying an illegal chokehold do you think would have won you the match? You want to talk about justice… then you need to teach the USPW officials the rules. One person, I just need one person to explain to me how Pariah has gotten away with this. Anybody would think she had some dirt on the man in charge! [Alicia Strong laughed, making reference to “Operation Lullabye” that resulted in Richard Eisen retiring from the business. While this isn’t explained on commentary, it is the first time Pariah’s history has been brought up on-screen, albeit in a light-hearted manner.] Pariah: Well how about you come out here right now… and I show you exactly how I apply the hold… Alicia Strong: You know, Pariah… I’m going to give that a pass. You’ve got a match to focus on, and I wouldn’t want you embarrassing yourself… there will be plenty of time for that. But I’ve had a word with your opponent, and now she’s extra motivated for this match tonight… [As Alicia Strong says that, the feed from the back is cut, and Pariah’s opponent makes her entrance...] Brock Cornish: You talk about big challenges, Emily… they don’t come bigger than Kass! Emily McQueen: Pariah has been rising the ranks recently, Brock… but I think she’s about to get brought back down to earth by Killer Kass!<hr color=red><hr color=blue> <hr color=red><hr color=blue>[The commentators talk over a video package, which recaps in two minutes the debut episode of USPW FTR!] During the night, Fro Sure, Captain Australia & Kip Keenan scored an upset victory over Charlie Thatcher, Dusty DuCont & Rajah. This show can be watched any time on demand, before the next episode airs exclusively on Reverie add-on subscription service “USPW Plus”, this Friday!<hr color=red><hr color=blue> <hr color=red><hr color=blue> USPW American Wrestling - Reverie Exclusive - “From The United States… To The World!” <hr color=red><hr color=blue>[Returning to the second hour of American Wrestling, Enygma is once again seen in the dark room in which he has resided since the beginning of the year. As was seen last week, the room appears to be on fire.] [Enygma is once again completely unmoved by the inferno, and does nothing as flames engulf his surroundings. From the side, an arm moves into shot, as if offering Enygma a way out of his confinement. Enygma looks at the arm, and for the first time in six weeks we see something other than the back of Enygma’s mask. Before we can see if Enygma accepts the gesture, the shot fades to black...]<hr color=red><hr color=blue> <hr color=red><hr color=blue>[brock Cornish & Emily McQueen introduce footage from earlier in the night, recapping Steve Frehley’s attack of Bulldozer Brandon Smith. Brock says that the USPW medical staff have been assessing the injuries, and Danny Jillefski is stood by, looking for an update.] [Danny Jillefski knocks on the door marked “Medical Room”, and tentatively opens it. Apparently as founder of USPW, he feels this is a justifiable action. As he pokes his head into the room, Danny asks if it’s okay to get a word with anybody. Before there’s a response, Steve Frehley pushes past him.] [The door swings right open, and we see Bulldozer Brandon Smith with a ice pack on his neck. Steve Frehley doesn’t care, and lunges straight at the man who confronted him last week. Frehley lays punches into the sizable head of Bulldozer Brandon Smith, as those in the room with them plead for him to stop. Frehley does eventually stop, but only after he throws Bulldozer Brandon Smith into a cabinet, putting him down once again. Frehley pushes past Danny Jillefski, who sends back to ringside following an unexpected, and violent, incident in the back.]<hr color=red><hr color=blue> <hr color=red><hr color=blue>[Heading to the back, Tiffany Jade is seen walking through a corridor, as Jillian Jarvis continues to try to speak to her.] [Tiffany Jade eventually stops, turns around and tells Jarvis to stop following her. Jarvis asks her to just hear her out, and Jade reluctantly agrees. Jillian says that she has a match with Melody next week, and she wants Tiffany Jade at ringside. She says that Melody and Sara Marie have each other’s backs, but if they work together, they can both get closer to the USPW Womens Championship. Tiffany Jade tells Jillian Jarvis that she’s never needed anybody's help to become the Champion before, and she sure doesn’t need it now...]<hr color=red><hr color=blue>[Returning to ringside, the commentators put over the next segment, and inform viewers that James Justice will be coming to the ring to deliver the decision of USPW management. Last month, commentator Belle Bryden slapped Alicia Strong across the face, following weeks of provocation. James Justice made his entrance, and while he embraced the fans at ringside, he was somewhat subdued.] [James Justice told the fans that the decision had been made above his head, and it was time to bring Belle Bryden out from the back. Just like Justice before her, Belle Bryden looked to be in a sombre mood.] [Once in the ring, James Justice informed Belle that a decision had been made, and - as a result of her actions on an episode of USPW American Wrestling last month - she is officially on a “final warning”. While no further action will take place at the moment, there is a procedure in place should an incident of this nature happen again. To put it plainly, if Belle Bryden ever even lays a single finger on a member of the USPW roster again, she will be fired from the company. Belle Bryden took a microphone to speak about the decision, but was cut off by Alicia Strong.] [Alicia was outraged by the decision, and demanded that more action be taken. James Justice said it was out of his hands, but since she was here, Alicia could perhaps send a message to her friends Glorious Gloria and Juliette King. As a result of their actions last week, another decision has been made. James Justice tells Alicia Strong that as of this moment, during all Alicia Strong matches going forward… The Muscle Monsters will be barred from ringside. Alicia Strong couldn’t believe what she was hearing, and claimed that the decision was completely unfair. Why was she being punished for the actions of somebody else, while Belle was getting away with what she’d done? James Justice said that, just like Alicia has been asking, the power was taken out of his hands for this one. She should be happy about that, because if he’d had his way… The Muscle Monsters would’ve been shown the door. Alicia Strong was furious, and stormed off up the ramp. James Justice shook hands with Belle Bryde, who took her seat back at ringside for the main event.] Brock Cornish (elated): Welcome back… Belle Bryden! It’s great to have you back where you belong. Belle Bryden: It’s great to be back, I’ve missed you guys. Emily McQueen (slightly begrudgingly): Yeah, Belle. It’s not been the same without you. Welcome back.<hr color=red><hr color=blue>[Returning to the back, prior to the main event, Trent Shaffer approached Kirk Jameson in the locker room. The two men had been in last week’s main event, but failed to secure a place as members of The Business. Tonight, both men had suffered defeat again, and were not expecting a call from Rich Money any time soon.] [Trent Shaffer told Kirk “I should be in that main event… and so should you”. Kirk Jameson looked up, and nodded at Trent Shaffer, agreeing that they belonged in the main event. Trent said that with his talent and Kirk’s strategy, they could beat anybody. Trent suggested that the two of them form a team, and Kirk nodded his head. Seemingly, a new duo had been formed in USPW.]<hr color=red><hr color=blue>

Kurt Angle vs. Mr. Anderson Generation Me (Nick & Matt Jackson) vs. The Hooliganz (Brian Kendrick & Paul London) Daniels & Tomko vs. Homicide & Samoa Joe <hr color=black> For Mick, I have an idea, but it's not like he's great in-ring in the mod I don't think. It's just his microphone skills and probably psychology and stuff. I'm a huge fan of his promos, like a lot of people, and feel he has something to offer. He's never going to be a weekly feature again, and I don't think he has many great moments in TNA, but this one storyline should be fine I think. More for what it does for the other person, and less giving Foley one last time to shine I think it's a different database, but the one I used for the TEW 2016 part of this save. I'm definitely keeping up with Knocked Out! though. Mostly because it's excellent, but also because I want to soak in some of the ability to book the Knockouts division. As for Traci, it's a complete mystery... I couldn't possibly say I think, given what I've seen in interviews, Heyman had a high opinion of this roster, so it makes sense to send "him" out and do the final hype job. Like you say, it gives me the chance to do it too! I think Shark Boy would probably be really popular if he came around today. He didn't always do the Austin gimmick, but he seems to have done it from 2008 until present day I think. I remember at this time thinking that Anderson was trying to pull of an Austin like gimmick in TNA, but I didn't put two and two together and make this an Austin impression-off! Could have be this universes version of Jay Lethal and Ric Flair's woo-off

Exclusive Report: Valiant Yet To Sign Contract Extension! Exclusive Report: Valiant Yet To Sign Contract Extension! Former SWF World Champion said to be “considering his options”, as USPW prepare offer… Reports coming out of the SWF today suggest a growing concern regarding the future of Valiant, who is yet to put pen to paper on a new contract with the company, despite going into the last month of his current deal. According to sources, the former SWF World Champion is said to be “not fully satisfied” with the terms laid out by Jerry and Eric Eisen, feeling that he is far more important to the company in their current state, than is represented by the offer on the table. Losing one of their biggest stars would be a huge blow for The Eisen Brothers, who are keen to rebuild the reputation of the Supreme Wrestling Federation, following the scandal that resulted in their father stepping down as Chairman. One SWF insider however, suggested that the feeling of management is that Valiant is an “SWF lifer”, and is using the outside interest to leverage a better deal with the company. They are said to be “confident” that Valiant will extend his 13 year run with them, having prepared a strong offer for the next round of negotiations. This is something of a gamble from the company, as Valiant would certainly court interest from elsewhere, namely USPW and the CWA. Given the fact that talks have come this close to the wire, he may well explore those avenues. Valiant signed with the SWF in the Summer of 2006, and spent just over a year in their RIPW development territory, before moving to the main roster. Gaining popularity as the tag team partner of Jack Giedroyc, Jack turning “Rogue” catapulted both men to superstardom. Now a two-time former SWF World Champion, Valiant is one of the most recognisable names in the country, and behind Rocky Golden, the number two face in the company. TotalExtremeWrestling.com reached out to our sources within USPW, looking for a response regarding the company’s rumoured interest in signing Valiant. We were told: “things are very hush, hush regarding Valiant at the moment, but his name has been mentioned in the locker room. Any company in the world would want to bring him on board, and if there is a chance he wants to jump from the sinking ship, you know Packer will be all over it!” Interestingly, reports came out last year that Valiant was frustrated at holding second billing to Rocky Golden within the SWF, feeling that the relative newcomer had “taken his spot”. While this was roundly denied, it is no secret that Valiant’s position as “heir to Jack Bruce” was taken from under his nose, when Golden became available in May 2018. Whether he would be willing to take a “sideway move” and be number two to Nicky Champion in USPW is another question, but the extra financial might of Reverie and Allen Packer may sweeten that pill. TotalExtremeWrestling.com will be the first with all updates on the future of Valiant, as the SWF continue to negotiate with one of their most marketable and recognisable Superstars.<hr color=black> Cheers, I always enjoy the post-PPV show the most, as it feels like the reset. Particularly after the first one, as I can move away from some of the starting storylines and begin my own. Pariah was hard done by not leaving Stars, Stripes & Slams as Champ, basically because I chickened out of pulling the trigger. I didn't want her to lose momentum, so her essentially bettering Strong and getting a win in all but name felt like a good way to put her over. Brandon is another I think can take that next step soon, and be part of that "just below Nicky" group with Wolf and hopefully Casey Valentine too. Natural Storm are intriguing me as well, because I'm not totally sure where they're going. I know what match they're in at Independence Day Slam in July, but have no clue what they might get up to in between I've always liked Rick Law, and I think I signed him during the first USPW game I ever played as a huge steal from TCW. Since that came to actually happen in the C-Verse, I've always enjoyed him in USPW. When I booked the show, I wasn't 100% sure whether Rick Law or somebody else would be challenging Rich at Red, White & Blue. But I have since made my mind up, and the main event will be basically confirmed on the next episode.

Throughout the contest, Rich Money berated Charlie Thatcher, Dusty DuCont and Rajah, but seemingly ignored the fact that Sterling Whitlock was also on the team defeated by Casey Valentine, Rick Law and two members of the FTR roster.</span></span></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"> </span></span></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"> Casey Valentine was the other man with something to prove in this match, but his goal was to impress his partners, who he has recently been trying to win around. While Casey has shown that he isn’t the same boy who debuted with his Uncle Peter many years ago, a recent “family reunion” saw him relapse when surrounded by the familiar influence. Since then, he has been desperate to prove himself - in particular to James Justice and Nicky Champion - and helped his cause during this match, with a selfless display.</span></span></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"> </span></span></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"> In the end, it was a victory for Casey, Nicky and Wolf, and the potential “Business” newcomers hadn’t done themselves any favours. Nicky Champion pinned Trent Shaffer, who found himself isolated in the ring with all three members of the opposite team. After a series of signature moves, punctuated with a “Hawkeye Hammer” (Pedigree), the match was over. Rich Money wasn’t happy, as his hand picked replacement was defeated in decisive fashion.</span></span></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"> </span></span></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"> </span></span></div></div></div></div></div><div style="text-align:center;"><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"><strong>Winners:</strong></span></span></div></div></div></div></div><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"> Casey Valentine, Hawkeye & Wolf (pinfall in 12:29)</span></span></div></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><p></p><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"> </span></span></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"> Feeling let down by those around him, Rich Money threw his headset off immediately after the match, refusing to answer a question posed by Brock Cornish.

In the moment that he turned around to do this, he was joined on the stage, and unsuspectingly turned straight into Rick Law!</span></span></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"> </span></span></div></div></div></div></div><div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="TBEmsHA.png" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/TBEmsHA.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></div><p></p><p></p><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"><span style="font-family:Verdana;"> Rick went nose to nose with his oldest rival in USPW, and the World Champion was less than happy to see him.

Real World Knocked Out: Pro Wrestling's Best Women's Division (TNA 2010) by edgehead7 One of my favourite real world diaries I can remember, really strong booking and well written. Look forward to each new show! C-Verse/Fictional RAW Attitude! by christmas_ape It's difficult for stuff to stand out with a new game I find, so I tend to dot around checking shows on diaries here and there. I wish I was better at keeping up with specific stuff, but I'm sure that will come when we see what is going to here for the long-term etc. This is one I've made sure to check out every show. Maybe it's with there being no PPVs, but it feels like something big can happen on any episode. This has stood out with such a unique take on a wrestling show. At times it barely resembles a wrestling show, but it is RAW we're talking about. Showcase [Layout/Presentation] All Elite Wrestling: Change The World by Hollywood Love how this looks and makes it very enjoyable to follow. [Angle] "Wrestler's Court" segment in RAW Attitude! by christmas_ape I was torn between this and the abduction of Swoop, and while typing I'm still unsure. Really funny segment. The post-show notes in IMPACT! Wrestling: Hard to Kill (RW 2020+) by Texasrangers13 I don't know if this would count under showcase, but I always love seeing the thought process behind the booking and Texasrangers13 always does this really well. If it is too broad a thing to nominate, I'll be more specific if neccessary.
