CGC Bubbleweight Title: Jake Sloan vs Helen Wheels Gotta be some kinda shenanigans Dan DaLay & John McClean vs Jack & Alex DeColt Jack and Alex have more experience as a team Rash Reilly & Frankie Flame vs Eddie Chandler & Johnny Maverick Think Chandler and Maverick have more about them then SoT unnderlings

‘The Anarchist’ Antithesis Squash Walker Van Cleer WVC will continue the rise ‘Captain Crash’ Cain Carlisle Unless this is a big debut, Cain needs to win this The Bern Boys w/ The Professor Toss up Chuck Frisby & Gulliver Another toss up Apollo Prince, Clifford Wilson & ??? JB seems to be weak link in Eddie's armour in this match. It's very dependant on who Mr squiggles is though. United have had a better year but that's down to Eddie being a great starting champ. Having to establish Kingdom's main event hurt to begin with allowing United to start at a much higher point. That being said it's a lot closer now, still United are the better brand.

I'd have won that contest if I didn't miss Wicked.... Just sayin' 😛 ‘The Master of Old School’ Aurelian Bradley w/ Welsh Dragon [vs] ‘Cowboy’ Buck Winchester w/ The Booth Buck has actually been a really good addition to the roster despite my reservations Loxley Robbins & Daniel Black Francis [vs] ???? & ???? Is this against local talents? I dunno and Robbins and DBF (and he had the National belt until recently) have been fairly irrelevant so far, you usually have 4 ?'s for Local lads so I'll give it to LR and DBF but I just can't see them beating anybody else EDIT: I just realised, I was thinking of Rolling Johnny Stones not Loxley Robbins. Oh yeah, Loxley will definitely win this ‘The Real Angel of the North’ Nate Manchester [vs] ‘The King of the Cruiserweights’ Phil Harmonic w/ Badberry & Silva Ooooh tough. Manchester has been fun but Harmonic has back up so I'll give it to him. Jeremy Allen w/ Kevin Jones [vs] War Machine w/ Cliff King How far Kevin Jones has fallen sickens me. I blame Allen (even though I love Monkey Business) so War Machine destroy him. ‘The Furious Bi-Curious’ Alfonso D’Angelo [vs] Stevie ‘Smasher’ Stoat Stoat has done nothing but job, D'Angelo has been quite good, so he gets it Crouching Storm, Hidden Sifu [vs] Wade Orson & Landon Mallory I am all for tag teams beating put together individuals but Orson has the big belt and neither of CSHS should be challenging him for the belt so he can't really lose here without looking weak and Orson needs to be built more as a threat. Also Mallory and Burton beat CSHS at Wicked and Sifu lost last week. They've kinda lost their chance. This could go the direction of Mallory and Orson can't co-exist and that'd be okay but Orson already looks vulnerable to me, the FamiLee are all over his underlings, Tommy Cornell knows he has his number. Orson has to win. Of course, that begs the question of if CSHS do lose, where do they go? Three big losses consecutively? That might just end them. Lots to think about but I... I just can't see Orson losing this.

CGC Tag Team Title Match: The Flock vs Soldiers of Fortune SoF need more feuds before dropping them Rocky Psycho vs Howling Dog Feels like Rocky's hot temper will cost him over and over again against Dog Condor vs Mario Heroic Condor is an asshat. Heroic has at least got something to him. I'm running out of ideas for Frenchie's Five segments. Any ideas? I'd love to see more about CGC history to this point. House show concepts that become PPV events (Ultimate showdown series, Elimination, Luck of the draw.). Popularity contests (who's the most over, most hated), most wins, most matches, best brawlers, best technicians, best highfliers, most charismatic, best performers, biggest draw, most beautiful (anything to tick Helen Wheels off more), most pies eaten. Could Rash Reilly get bigger like MW? Is he a viable future star in the company?

‘His Satanic Majesty’ Aldous Blackfriar [vs] Luke Cool Luke Cool has been someone whose kinda fallen into the background in the diary. I know he's in the House of Business but other than like Eddie, Mark Adonis and Beast Bantom the rest fade into the background ‘Captain Crash’ Cain Carlisle [vs] BW Eddie I flipped a coin.... No seriously Walker Van Cleer [vs] Gulliver w/ Chuck Frisby Gulliver isn't the talent of Van Cleer but has been an ever present with Chuck so he can lose here without really losing any standing with the fans Kenobi High w/ The Padawans [vs] Misery & Smithie w/ Emmett Askey I like Mark Misery a lot and tend to push him when I use him but Kenobi High are the best and that's all I need to say ‘The Bear’ Viktor Beskov [vs] Beast Bantom There is not many guys I would say Beskov loses to, Bantom is one Apollo Prince & Clifford Wilson [vs] Edward Cornell & Mark Adonis w/ The House of Business Cliff and Prince ain't going to be on the same page while Cornell and Adonis will have some semblance of a plan Haha, I wasn't at that level yet but Tommy is one of my faves here. He's old but we all know he can still go. Harmonic is an excellent talent to grow in 21CW. A guy who could be your Dolph Ziggler in the future. A guy who can fill in anywhere. Main event feud, you betcha, PPV opener, works too, episodic villain for a babyface to conquer that episode, perfect. He's versatile and still very very young

Atom Smasher vs Robbie Retro Justin Sensitive vs ZWB Oliver Kobb vs Scythe Darryl Devine & Nicky Gilbert vs Dominic DeSousa & Sammy Smoke One Man Army vs Robbie Wright Main Event: Remo & The Crippler vs Valiant & Rogue (BONUS) Will SWF top the weekly TV ratings this week? Yes

Cousin Konrad w/ The Lee FamiLee [vs] ‘The Quiet One’ Sifu w/ Ricky Storm The Lee FamiLee should be dominant for a bit while the storyline shapes up ‘The Irish Stretching Machine’ Merle O’Curle [vs] Lone Wolf Gotta go against my love for Merle O Curle but hey ‘The Real Angel of the North’ Nate Manchester [vs] War Machine w/ Cliff King Should be a squash Andrew Lee w/ The Lee FamiLee [vs] ‘Sensational’ Ricky Storm w/ Sifu Andrew should be aiming for the big title The Underdogs [vs] The Booth w/ DJ Reason & Buck Winchester Underdogs have never been relevant in the save ‘Rough Justice’ Tommy Cornell [vs] ‘The King of the Cruiserweights’ Phil Harmonic w/ Silva & Badberry HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAAAHHAAHHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAAHHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAAHHAAHAHAHA Oh... you're serious. Okay well if Tommy Cornell loses I'd be both angry and shocked, let's hope that doesn't happen

CGC World TItle: Ed Monton vs Steve DeColt This is gonna end in some kind of School of Tradition/Roger Rogers type shenanigans but Steve will keep the belt Land Mass & Mammoth vs Eddie Chandler & Johnny Maverick This is likely wrong but O care more about Maverick and Chandler than Wheels' men. Did enjoy her bubbleweight win though Dirty Frank vs Xander Robinson Xander is better, but Frank has more going on after his addition to the SoT

I don't think it was as rushed as you think it was. I think you set things up well. The Jack element in the middle made it interesting. You say it wasn't good enough for a marquee event but what was the alternative? Tyler/Steve or Bowen/Steve were your best options unless you built a new threat and 3 months. I think you've set it up now that you kinda have a blank slate now. There is a small sense of there being an Eric Tyler shaped hole in the middle of the show now but is he gone now? I don't know. However, I'm excited to see.

I think this proves my stance that United is a stronger brand. I think Roly and Koller (and maybe Beskov) switching brands could really help them become bigger deals. Cooper heading over there as well makes sense just to mix up the main event scene. Koller v Orson sounds really fun. Roly v War Machine, that just sound like a beefy brawl for the ages. So glad to see a draft is in the works. I do think there should be protected workers on both brands (workers that can't be poached via the draft.)

Rocky Golden vs John Greed Rocky is like the best candidate for champion. You know like when Stone Cold always said he preferred to be the hunter instead of the hunted, Golden is like the best man to be hunted. Ala Jack Bruce circa 2009 in the Man Under Pressure storyline Bear Bekowski vs Steven Parker Bear has promise but Parker could be a star if SWF used him properly. Maybe you could make him into the star he deserves to be Brett Biggins vs The Crippler Brett should just go to TCW. Crippler is old but can still contribute. I'd love a Lobster Warrior return in the twilight of his career Fame & Money (Monty Trescarde & Paul Huntingdon) vs The Rock City Stars (Rockin' Ryan Turner & Stan Manna) I'm not a big fan of the tag team scene in SWF. This isn't DAVE 2005. I'll give it to Fame and Money Jungle Lord and Faith & Old Glory (Matty Faith & Masked Patriot) vs Unleashed Awesomeness (Randy Unleashed, Jefferson Stardust and Huey Cannonball) The Awesomeness need to break away from Randy, they could be mega stars Main Event: Mikey Lau vs Scythe My Anti Mikey Lau rant a few shows ago should explain this

God damn I missed the predictions. I was sure I put them in. Anyway, going back to the previous show, Cliff Wilson needs to bring the face paint out for the big match up. I'd mark out. Apollo v Angel I'm here for it. Anyway, Wicked analysis, let's go. I loved the graphics a lot. Really nice job on that. The Lee's versus Burton/Mallory should be a very good match. I like the feud that's beginning between the FamiLee and all the champs, more on that later. The fact Bedlam brought War Machine to seven in this series is a pretty big deal. War Machine is like one of the best dudes to push to the top and Bedlam took him the distance. Maybe Bedlam could be just below that main event level, though I never saw him get there. Obviously the injury made the difference so maybe you see him as Machine's equal. Stoat was always gonna put Konrad over. Wonder how both men performed a 62 is better than I expected. Where Konrad goes, I'm not sure but it seems he's gonna help his FamiLee members in their pursuit of... Mallory and Burton winning makes sense. Little bit underwhelming performance from the match but hey. There's a real rivalry going with the three champs and the FamiLee. I like that. The issue, the champs are lacking in numbers. I still dig it. Buck winning in the grudge match was not what I expected. Alfonso is quite excellent from the beginning. He needs experience but he's really good. Buck is a blow in and I get The Booth are a big deal, as they should be but Alfonso is a guy I could see be a poor man's Adam Matravers, which sounds like an insult but is such a huge compliment. Excellent all rounder, able to have feuds with the stars and have a run or two with the big belt for transition periods. Buck and The Booth could move up another bit now. Who's next for them? I don't know. I think they should separate from Alfonso now and do something else. Little disappointed that Tommy didn't win the belt. He's probably the most interesting guy on Kingdom. Buff is kind of hurt by Tommy. Orson and his crew are good but Tommy is Tommy and I'd feel it'd be better if he wasn't here. I've talked about this before but the brand split really shows 21CW's lack of mega stars. Tommy, Eddie and Matravers but Matravers has done nothing in a bit. Tommy is vying for the world title on Kingdom and Eddie is a big part of United and is vying for the belt over there. You give us updates on the roster but I'd love to see the perception each guy is at, just to see. Like outside of Tommy (and maybe Buff, depending on your stance on him) who's there to challenge Orson. I had Landon Mallory down originally but he's by his side now. Robbins maybe but he's busy. I'm looking forward to seeing it because it is so open, but Buff needs to move onto somebody else (The Booth maybe). Tommy needs to either win the belt (which I think would be the best as there are so many great heels ready to challenge a face champ) or move onto someone else as well. Exciting times ahead.

CGC Bubbleweight Title: Canadian Dragon vs Condor vs Jake Sloan vs Mario Heroic vs Tempest Appleby It's either Sloan or Heroic but Sloan could carry the division Rocky Psycho vs Howling Dog Psycho is on the rise. Pity about Steve Flash but hey, Psycho ain't too bad Soldiers of Fortune & Dan DaLay vs Steve, Alex & Jack DeColt I'd have had a much more difficult time picking if Tyler was here but Dan and the Soldiers ain't the same but there should be some drama with Steve and Jack maybe Lotta fun with WF. Bowen/Dog, Jones/Monton and Steve/Tyler really being the only "serious" parts of the show. McClean in the hazmat was probably my fave part outside the main event.

Angry Gilmore & Robbie Retro vs Atom Smasher & Des Davids Retro is the odd man out here Oliver Kobb vs Zeus Maxmillion Big Zeus fan but at 42 he's well past it Demolition (Avalanche & Primus Allen) vs The Dallas Cowboys (Marshall Dillon & Ranger) Allen deserves more than being a tag guy Charger Siaki vs Rogue Squash Main Event: SWF World Heavyweight Title Shot Match Brandon James vs Valiant Seems like the only outcome (BONUS) Which match will have the highest rating? Opener Comments on diary / last episode:

I've never had slow results (a minute or two being the max) and I've done them at all times of the day. I do generally go off doing something else to just pass the time so maybe I just don't feel it being that long but I check at regular intervals and it's usually the first time I check (maybe solidifying the addage that a watched pot never boils). Maybe it's a variety of things that attribute to slowdown country, server, traffic etc but I've never had an issue with the method I've used.
