Jack Giedroyc vs The Crippler Could be a future World Title defense for Remo as there's some unsettled business here. Regardless, I think Jack being fresh off his turn still could use a strong victory. SWF World Tag Team Hawaiian Crush (Ekuma & High Flyin Hawaiian) (c) vs The Dallas Cowboys (Marshall Dillon & Ranger) Just a gut feeling. I don't have a strong opinion one way or the other though. Brandon James vs Joey Morgan Brandon can easily challenge for either the World or North American straps still. I think this is a reminder of that. Will be important for another prediction a little later. Lenny Brown vs ZWB Good match but...ZWB continues running through the new group. SWF North American Des Davids (c) vs Angry Gilmore Probably the thank you run as Des could be ready for something bigger(a Rocky feud?) in my mind. There's also more ready made upper mid heels(and even a little further on the midcard with other names for that matter) for Gilmore to face as he breaks the record. Main Event: SWF World Heavyweight Remo (c) vs Valiant Remo beats Valiant up pretty bad. Maybe even a stoppage finish and forces Jack Giedroyc(his next challenger perhaps) to watch his friend get helped or stretchered off. I don't know if you're doing that but it sounds cool in my head! (BONUS 1) Which match will have the highest rating? Let's go with the North American title match. They're compatible wrestlers. (BONUS 2) Whose entrance will get the biggest pop? Valiant is pretty hot right now so let's go with him. Comments on diary / last episode:

Now I'm being reminded how the WWF(at the time) first tried countering said cruiserweight division with what they dubbed a Light Heavyweight division. Never really gave it a true chance then. It was what it was though.

Atom Smasher vs Robbie Retro I do think Smasher is a fun menace in the middle of the card. Justin Sensitive vs ZWB ZWB in a relative squash. Oliver Kobb vs Scythe We may need a spatula to scrape up what's left of Kobb here. Darryl Devine & Nicky Gilbert vs Dominic DeSousa & Sammy Smoke Going with the babyfaces here. One Man Army vs Robbie Wright Wright could learn a thing or two in matches like this. Main Event: Remo & The Crippler vs Valiant & Rogue The former tag champions with their friendship rebuilt find a way with Valiant pinning Crippler perhaps while this genuinely agitates Remo. (BONUS) Will SWF top the weekly TV ratings this week? Yes.

Rocky Golden vs John Greed Yeah, give it to Rocky. This could be the start of a longer storyline; I like the idea of this being a revived Man Under Pressure style story. Maybe there's a bounty put on Rocky. Bear Bekowski vs Steven Parker Parker is a useful wrestler but Bear could actually be heated up to be a good monster of the month type. He'd be a good foil for someone like Lau, ZMB, or even Valiant down the line. Maybe even a Bear vs Rocky for a good TV match. Brett Biggins vs The Crippler Not close. Biggins is just picking up a pay check to put people over and honestly? A Crippler-Lau feud could be workable. Fame & Money (Monty Trescarde & Paul Huntingdon) vs The Rock City Stars (Rockin' Ryan Turner & Stan Manna) I have a soft spot for Monty Trescarde; he's a useful heel but not entirely the greatest. Perfect in a tag team and Huntingdon is a good partner for him as a more charismatic counterpart. I don't rate the Rock City Stars high enough to beat Fame and Money yet. Jungle Lord and Faith & Old Glory (Matty Faith & Masked Patriot) vs Unleashed Awesomeness (Randy Unleashed, Jefferson Stardust and Huey Cannonball) Yeah...I like Masked Patriot and Jungle Lord is useful but uh...I think Unleashed Awesomeness together still have mileage. Main Event: Mikey Lau vs Scythe Come on...Scythe is going to be a monster around the top of the cards with a touch more development for a long time. Lau's just here to get a good match out of him. (BONUS) Will SWF top the weekly TV ratings this week? To quote Matty's father, I have faith. Yes.

I'm a fan of Bulldozer so I'm glad he got his big win on the biggest stage. He also has a lot of fresh heels to work with that are both young and up and coming and some that are more established. It'll be a fun few months for him. I think Champion did have to win because between Money and Frehley...that's been a fair amount of time with heels at the very top of the company and I do think the audience wants some semblance of relief to that. Joss and Champion can go at it for a bit. You do have more heels ready then faces obviously. I do wonder how Frehley's going to end up taking this loss though. Maybe he loses his temper and this provokes something with Law(who has been floating for a while now and needs something to sink his teeth into; an angle like this to toughen him up from a perception standpoint could do wonders)? Just spitballing there. Also between Force selling out earlier and now Enygma seemingly converting to Tyson's group...there's more of a need for some kind of hero more then ever now for other parts of the card!

Ten Man Tag Team Elimination Match! Team Running Wolf vs. The Business I'll take the faction over the non faction. USPW National Championship 3-Way Match American Patriot vs. Trent Shaffer vs. Roger Cage (C) Reward the over the top gimmick. Always did like Brandon Smith though. No Disqualification Match Joss Thompson vs. Commissioner Justice Joss gets a win on the biggest show. USPW Tag Team Championship 4-Way Match The Ring Generals vs. Texas Express vs. Bad Intentions vs. Jett & Moor (C) I feel like a switch is in order but this feels like the most fun act to switch it to right now. USPW #1 Contender Battle Royale Angry Gilmore, Anthony Trask, Casey Valentine, DC Rayne, Eddie Howard, Enygma, Fro Sure, Jim Force, Joss Thompson, Justin Sensitive, Kirk Jameson, Krusher Karloff, Rajah, Rich Money, Rick Law, Running Wolf, Sterling Whitlock, T-Rex, Tyson Baine and Zeus! I think I'm on board with just going all in on Joss. USPW Women's Championship Match Alicia Strong vs Joanne Rodriguez (C) I'll take Alicia here. USPW Championship Match Nicky Champion vs. Steve Frehley (C) I can make a case either way but...I think Nicky winning here keeps an edge on Frehley because there's just gonna be that one guy he can't fully conquer.

Nicky-mania is taking over my friend. Ha. Entertaining pay per view by the way.

ZWB vs El Leon Probably too much of a popularity gap to really do anything else. The Abominations vs The Boys vs Flex & Pecs vs Hawaiian Crush Works as a good contrast to who are the champions now. Brandon James vs Steven Parker Has to go this way I think. Primus Allen vs Valiant All of this just to get one more shot at Remo. John Greed vs Rocky Golden I love Greed but...no way.

I was more actually thinking Monty because of the southern rebrand TCW's gone through and he has the type of gimmick that really works opposite midcard stalwarts like Triple D or Benny Benson. For certain kinds of Sports Entertainment he fits but if you're going for a more gritty presentation, he's really not the most natural fit without some tweaks. As for Joey Morgan...he kind of fits anywhere because everybody knows who he is. Hard nosed, blue collar butt kicker.

Monty almost feels like a TCW fit now considering his gimmick and style. He almost feels...alien in a way with this SWF product.

Main Event Time Limits are for nerds "Unleashed" Randall Buckminster Bumfhole vs ZWB Continue the momentum Tag Team Match Time Limits are for nerds Atom Smasher & Rogue vs Lenny Brown & Steven Parker Heels win. Tag Team Match Time Limits are for nerds The Awesomeness vs Southern Comfort Cheating to win I'd say to continue that story.

Opening Match Time Limits are for nerds The Domination vs Cali Slick & Fro Sure Named team.

Main Event SWF World Heavyweight title triple threat match Rocky Golden © vs Remo vs Scythe Not yet. No change. 2 out of 3 Falls Grudge Match Rogue vs Valiant Give the Honorable one a good win. SWF North American title Des Davids © vs "The Supreme Star" Spencer Spade vs "The Future" Steven Parker It feels like Des might be ready to test some main event waters. Him vs Valiant might be a really strong number 2 program. I think it's time for that change. Last Man Standing Match "The Radioactive Warrior" Atom Smasher vs "The Dragon" Mikey Lau If Dragon is gaining steam then let it continue here. SWF World Tag Team titles match Hawaiian Crush © vs The Awesomeness I prefer The Awesomeness and all but I think this helps legitimize Hawaiian Crush's tag reign. Singles match Brandon James vs Hollywood Bret Starr By hook or crook. Tag Team match Best of the Best vs Supreme Dream Team I think they need kept strong. Monsters SMASH Singles match The Crippler vs ZWB I think ZWB has other feuds to worry about and Crippler could challenge Rocky at any given time with an easy to tell story. Opening Three Way #1 contendership Tag Team match Fame & Money vs Southern Comfort vs The Mission Reliable heat magnet for the new tag champions. Mission really don't seem ready and Southern Comfort are babyfaces.

Main Event Time Limits are for nerds Brandon James & Lenny Brown vs Hollywood Bret Starr & The Crippler I'll take the heels here. Tag Team Match Time Limits are for nerds Best of the Best vs Bear Bekowski & Primus Allen This is kind of a duo I liked pairing in earlier TEW games as a learning experience for both(usually as the back up to a veteran like Rogue or part of a trio with Greed) so I endorse this pairing. Singles Match Time Limits are for nerds Mainstream Hernandez vs Masked Patriot Mainstream is just one of my favorite guys, period. Plus A major announcement from Eric Eisen and an open challenge from John Greed. Who will answer the call? Shot in the dark...Rocky Golden has frustrations he wants to work out and to keep sharp for the threats ahead.

Ten Man Tag Twenty Minute Time Limit Aaron Andrews, Benny & The Foxx, Kip Keenan and Riley McManus versus Jay Chord, Roderick Remus, Ernest Youngman, The Historian, and The Architect They will cheat.

Six Man Tag Team Match Fifteen Minute Time Limit Danny Fonzarelli, Dave Diamond, and Tana the Mighty versus The Syndicate Named over un-named. Opening Match Fifteen Minute Time Limit Human Arsenal versus Yuri Yoshihara I'll go with Yuri.

Melody vs 'The Iron Lady' Jillian Jarvis Comments: Root for the good gal here. Regular Joe vs 'The Traskmaster' Anthony Trask Comments: SQUASH Natural Storm vs Heavy Duty Comments: Arguably the best tag team in North America. Alicia Strong vs 'Miss Fit' Missy Masterson Comments: Strong style ass-whooping in a way. Street Fight Enygma vs 'The Complete Package' Joss Thompson Comments: Feels like a transition here. Roger Cage will defend his title in an open challenge against a top Tri-State independent talent. Who?: Art Reed? Maybe he moved there and has DAVE connections so why not?
