The crowd then came to life as the tag team champions The Show Stealers came out to face Blue Chip Blondes in a throwback match to ROF 2006! The non-title bout was won by the champions when Barnes nailed a flying elbow on Kelly Martin for the win ... Giedroyc ally JD Morgan battled Dark Angel ally Seraphym next, with Morgan taking out a lot of frustration on the face-painted wrestler and showing he is still a major force here in ROF ... The main event was a prelude to Combustion’s main event. UK Dragon scored a big win by pinning Johnny Stones with the Dragon Drop and giving himself a major momentum boost before the title triple threat match.[/FONT] [FONT="Century Gothic"] [CENTER]_______________________________ [B]March Week 2 - IVR 0.46 - Show Rating B-[/B] Jack Giedroyc beat Kashmir Singh [B]C[/B] Can-Am SAS beat Sharp & Heath [B]C[/B] Billy Robinson beat Hugh de Aske [B]B-[/B] Merle O’Curle beat Walter Morgan [B]B[/B][/CENTER] Jack Giedroyc opened the show to a big pop, although his match with Kashmir Singh suffered from a lack of chemistry. He got the win with a Crashing On, and the announce team covered by talking mainly about the Giedroyc/Angel match at Combustion ... Sharp & Heath did the job to Can-Am SAS, but it was probably the youngsters’ best ever tag match together ... The crowd visibly lifted for the Robinson vs de Aske bout. It was a tight battle, but Robinson just had too much for the pirate on this occasion and got the submission win ... O’Curle and Morgan put on their usual accomplished performance in the non-title main event, with only a lack of selling by both men a sticking point. O’Curle built momentum for Combustion by applying his Celtic Wreath for the submission. [CENTER]______________________________ [B]March Week 3 - IVR 0.45 - Show Rating B[/B] Nigel Svensson beat Casey Valentine [B]C[/B] Warriors of Honour beat Par Excellence [B]C+[/B] Dark Angel beat Kevin Jones [B]C+[/B] Johnny Stones drew with JD Morgan [B]B[/B][B]+[/B][/CENTER] Talisman champ Nigel Svensson showed how devastating his Hyper Extension armlock is by defeating Casey Valentine in the non-title opener. Svensson looks in good shape for Combustion ... Warriors of Honour also head to Combustion in form. They beat Par Excellence in a fine bout and Dan Judoka seems to improve every time he gets in the ring ... Dark Angel produced a no-nonsense display to pin the durable Kevin Jones with his Descent Into Hell. He’s looking to finish Jack Giedroyc off once and for all at Combustion ... Johnny Stones failed to get momentum boost for Combustion as he and JD Morgan went to a time limit draw. The two ring veterans traded holds throughout the bout but neither could get the victory before the show went off air.[/FONT]

However he is back on the road towards the ROF title, and will be looking to cement his place back amongst ROF’s elite by beating up-and-comer Billy Robinson here. Robinson had a great end to 2010 by appearing in the main event of Pyromania, but has since lost to Merle O’Curle in singles action and again lost out in last month’s number one contenders match. Can he bounce back or will Morgan rise again?[/I] [IMG]http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k225/MarcelFromage/ROF/Wrestler%20Pics/GregGauge2ROF.jpg[/IMG][IMG]http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k225/MarcelFromage/ROF/Wrestler%20Pics/VSborder.jpg[/IMG][IMG]http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k225/MarcelFromage/ROF/Wrestler%20Pics/HughdeAskeROF.jpg[/IMG] [SIZE="3"][FONT="Century Gothic"]Greg Gauge vs Hugh de Aske[/FONT][/SIZE] [I]These two men will feel they have a point to prove in this match. De Aske had a great 2010, but has struggled in 2011 so far. He failed to win back his Talisman Title from Nigel Svensson at Ashes to Ashes, and lost to Don Henderson at Blaze of Glory. Greg Gauge had a Talisman title shot at Blaze of Glory, but failed to capture the belt. Now the two men are vying for position as they seek another title opportunity.[/I] [IMG]http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k225/MarcelFromage/ROF/Wrestler%20Pics/NigelSvenssonROF.jpg[/IMG][IMG]http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k225/MarcelFromage/ROF/Wrestler%20Pics/VSborder4-1.jpg[/IMG][IMG]http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k225/MarcelFromage/ROF/Wrestler%20Pics/DonHendersonROF.jpg[/IMG] [SIZE="3"][FONT="Georgia"][U]ROF Talisman Title[/U][/FONT][/SIZE] [FONT="Century Gothic"][SIZE="3"]Nigel Svensson © vs Don Henderson[/SIZE][/FONT] [I]Svensson has so far proved his credentials since becoming champion by beating the former holder Hugh de Aske at Ashes to Ashes and Greg Gauge at Blaze of Glory. This may well be his toughest test yet, as he faced the Highland Hitman. Henderson knows what it takes to be Talisman champion and having beaten Hugh de Aske last month, and warmed up with a comfortable win on Cauldron recently, he’ll be looking for a 3rd Talisman reign himself.[/I] [IMG]http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k225/MarcelFromage/ROF/Wrestler%20Pics/ShowStealersROF.jpg[/IMG][IMG]http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k225/MarcelFromage/ROF/Wrestler%20Pics/VSTag.jpg[/IMG][IMG]http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k225/MarcelFromage/ROF/Wrestler%20Pics/WarriorsofHonour.jpg[/IMG] [FONT="Georgia"][U][SIZE="3"]ROF Tag Team Titles[/SIZE][/U][/FONT] [SIZE="3"][FONT="Century Gothic"]The Show Stealers © vs Warriors of Honour[/FONT][/SIZE] [I]The two main fan favourite teams in ROF meet here with the tag team titles at stake. They first met in the Pyromania 4-way, with the Show Stealers retaining their titles. The same result occurred at Ashes to Ashes when the teams met for the first ever time 2 v 2. Now they meet again and the Warriors will feel they have a point to prove, whilst the Show Stealers will certainly not want to give up their titles easily. This should be a cracking tag match.[/I] [IMG]http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k225/MarcelFromage/ROF/Wrestler%20Pics/DarkAngelROF.jpg[/IMG][IMG]http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k225/MarcelFromage/ROF/Wrestler%20Pics/VSborder.jpg[/IMG][IMG]http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k225/MarcelFromage/ROF/Wrestler%20Pics/WrathofGodROF.jpg[/IMG] [U][FONT="Georgia"][SIZE="3"]Last Man Standing[/SIZE][/FONT][/U] [FONT="Century Gothic"][SIZE="3"]Dark Angel vs ‘Wrath of God’ Jack Giedroyc[/SIZE][/FONT] [I]The feud between these two rumbles on, with Dark Angel seemingly having the upper hand. After Giedroyc got a tag win at Pyromania, the two drew at Ashes to Ashes in singles competition when the referee threw the match out. Then last month’s no DQ match ended in a solid win for Dark Angel. Now they meet in a Last Man Standing to try and finish things. Can the Wrath of God pull it round, or does the Dark Angel have his number?[/I] [IMG]http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k225/MarcelFromage/ROF/Wrestler%20Pics/RollingJohnnyStonesROF.jpg[/IMG][IMG]http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k225/MarcelFromage/ROF/Wrestler%20Pics/VSborder2.jpg[/IMG][IMG]http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k225/MarcelFromage/ROF/Wrestler%20Pics/MerleOCurleROF.jpg[/IMG][IMG]http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k225/MarcelFromage/ROF/Wrestler%20Pics/VSborder2.jpg[/IMG][IMG]http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k225/MarcelFromage/ROF/Wrestler%20Pics/UKDragonROF.jpg[/IMG] [U][FONT="Georgia"][SIZE="3"]ROF Championship Triple Threat[/SIZE][/FONT][/U] [FONT="Century Gothic"][SIZE="3"]Merle O’Curle © vs Rolling Johnny Stones vs UK Dragon[/SIZE][/FONT] [I]Merle O’Curle won back ‘his’ ROF title at Blaze of Glory, beating Rolling Johnny Stones. At the same time UK Dragon was winning a number one contenders triple threat match for the right to face the champion at Combustion. What that means is that Stones gets his rematch and Dragon gets his shot at the same time in this triple threat bout. Last time the three men were in the ring together, Stones and Dragon worked over O’Curle together before Stones duped Dragon. Will that happen again? Or is O’Curle set for another mammoth reign?[/I] _______________________________[/CENTER] [B]ROF Combustion – March 2011[/B] Billy Robinson vs JD Morgan Greg Gauge vs Hugh de Aske [U]ROF Talisman Title[/U] Nigel Svensson © vs Don Henderson [U]ROF Tag Team Titles[/U] The Show Stealers © vs Warriors of Honour [U]Last Man Standing[/U] Dark Angel vs ‘Wrath of God’ Jack Giedroyc [U]ROF Championship Triple Threat[/U] Merle O’Curle © vs Rolling Johnny Stones vs UK Dragon

[QUOTE=Phantom Stranger;333949]Man, that rating shows the difference in our popularity levels all round... My best to date is 0.27.[/QUOTE] Well...your show is on Continental Sports and mine is on Euro Cable Sports 1 - which means I'm showing in Scotland and Eastern Europe as well on a slightly larger network. Then again, tv ratings don't really mean a great deal. I'm happy to see when they go up. But really it's just being on tv that's important.

A win over an established veteran would really legitimize Svensson's title reign.[/I][/QUOTE] Hmm. It's interesting that you both say that. He's actually only held it twice. His first short reign from December 08 to February 09. And then a longer reign from January 10 to August 10. I think probably the fact that he's been in contention for the strap for a long time makes it seem like he's held the belt more times. So far, in ROF history, only Billy Robinson and Merle O'Curle have ever held a singles title a total of 3 times. By the way...ooc...the main title went back on O'Curle kind of as punishment to Johnny Stones, who (as a free spirit) turned up late 3 times since becoming champion. He was doing well as champ, but I felt that if it was a real-life company, there was no way I'd keep a guy as champion when he'd not been bothering to turn up on time. But then, if he learns his lesson...

[Beeker]

ROF Combustion – March 2011 [B]Billy Robinson[/B] vs JD Morgan [I]- Danny'll be proud as I see a shock win for Robinson. Which will lead to some rematches and essentially if it succeeds it will cement Robinson in the top tier of the RoF.[/I] [B]Greg Gauge[/B] vs Hugh de Aske [I]- Flip a coin. Either guy could be lured away to America (or Japan) at almost any moment. So let's keep de Aske's slide... a-slidin'.[/I] ROF Talisman Title [B]Nigel Svensson ©[/B] vs Don Henderson [I]- Svensson needs this. Henderson's outgrown the Talisman. Perhaps a quick roll up to keep the Scottish Deathlock out of play?[/I] ROF Tag Team Titles The Show Stealers © vs [B]Warriors of Honour[/B] [I]- Samurai demands the tag titles as a reward for Judota/Judoka? being the most improved RoFer every month for the past 2 years. (I may be stretching the truth juuuuuuuuust a bit.)[/I] Last Man Standing Dark Angel vs [B]‘Wrath of God’ Jack Giedroyc[/B] [I]- I've come to the assumption that the Dark Angel is about as believable a 'monster' as Chocolate Reign Dustin Rhodes. So 'the Wrath of Pox' gets a measure of revenge and DA floats down to the midcard monster slot.[/I] ROF Championship Triple Threat [B]Merle O’Curle ©[/B] vs Rolling Johnny Stones vs UK Dragon [I]- I actually *want* to pick someone other than O'Curle as it would be a great shake-up and send O'Curle off the deep end. And would lead to a great interview. But I don't think Stones or Dragon are the men to topple O'Curle.[/I] [quote=Sample fantasy interview...] JB: So Merle, this third reign was substantially shorter than your first two. 13 days as opposed to 13 months. MO: Wow. That's insightful. JB: What I mean is... MO: Want to teach me the months of the year now? JB: Getting back on track... MO: Care to suggest some strategy for the rematch? JB: Um... uh... thanks for joining us Merle. MO: You a gibbering git. This *was* your best interview ever![/quote]

ROF Combustion – March 2011 [B]Billy Robinson[/B] vs JD Morgan Well He is still fighting the top dogs, granted he is opening the show but meh, theres a dark match GO BILLY GO!!!! Greg Gauge vs [B]Hugh de Aske[/B] still think Aske has more longitivity here than Greg ROF Talisman Title Nigel Svensson © vs [B]Don Henderson[/B] too many superstars at the top Don will have to wait until one of them leaves for his chance to shine, so think of this as constlation prize ROF Tag Team Titles The Show Stealers © vs [B]Warriors of Honour[/B] New tag champs, The S.S are not really doing anything great so a change would be nice Last Man Standing [B]Dark Angel[/B] vs ‘Wrath of God’ Jack Giedroyc A victory would make it seem like D.A is some kind of thret to W.O.G ROF Championship Triple Threat Merle O’Curle © vs Rolling Johnny Stones vs[B] UK Dragon[/B] Just so O'Curle can win it back & be a 4 time champ

Jones is a competent wrestler, but still is finding it difficult to break his tag of the mid-card nearly man. De Aske had no problem with that by winning the Talisman Title in 2010, but since then he has struggled to make his mark in the same way. Both men need a victory here to help give their career some direction, but will it be the Welshman or the Crossbreed Pirate?[/I] [IMG]http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k225/MarcelFromage/ROF/Wrestler%20Pics/NigelSvenssonROF.jpg[/IMG][IMG]http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k225/MarcelFromage/ROF/Wrestler%20Pics/VSborder4-1.jpg[/IMG][IMG]http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k225/MarcelFromage/ROF/Wrestler%20Pics/DonHendersonROF.jpg[/IMG] [U][FONT="Georgia"][SIZE="3"]ROF Talisman Title[/SIZE][/FONT][/U] [SIZE="3"][FONT="Century Gothic"]Nigel Svensson © vs Don Henderson[/FONT][/SIZE] [I]Following last month’s very tight Talisman title match between these two, a rematch has been ordered.

O’Curle has held the upper hand over the course of history when these two have met, but everyone knows how dangerous a competitor Dragon is and he would be a worthy champion, as he has proved on two previous occasions. He also beat Rolling Johnny Stones this week on Cauldron to gain some serious momentum. Probably the two pre-eminent wrestlers over the past 5 years in ROF, which of the two will go home after Dying Embers with the championship belt?[/I] ______________________________[/CENTER] [B]ROF Dying Embers – April 2011[/B] [U]Rankings Match[/U] Hugh de Aske vs Kevin Jones [U]ROF Talisman Title[/U] Nigel Svensson © vs Don Henderson [U]Steel Cage Match[/U] Dark Angel vs ‘Wrath Of God’ Jack Giedroyc [U]ROF Tag Team Titles[/U] Warriors of Honour © vs The Show Stealers [U]Rankings Match[/U] JD Morgan vs Rolling Johnny Stones [U]ROF Championship[/U] Merle O’Curle © vs UK Dragon

By the way, thanks for the comments, guys. Have split page 2 of the longer newsletter away from the rest simply because the PPV happens in week 4 after all of the Cauldron shows for that month. So I thought it was best you could read those results before predicting the PPV.

ROF Dying Embers – April 2011 Rankings Match [B]Hugh de Aske[/B] vs Kevin Jones [I]Jones is still on the roster? Since De Aske is actually getting PPV time and Jones isn't this goes to the "crossbreed pirate"[/I] ROF Talisman Title Nigel Svensson © vs [B]Don Henderson[/B] [I]Svennson has had an impressive first championship, but it is time for Henderson to win the belt for the 117,603rd time (okay, third time) to match his former partner[/I] Steel Cage Match Dark Angel vs ‘[B]Wrath Of God’ Jack Giedroyc[/B] [I]The steel helmet makes the difference[/I] ROF Tag Team Titles [B]Warriors of Honour[/B] © vs The Show Stealers [I]Warriors of Honour hold the belts for a bit while Show Stealers and CAN-AM SAS fight it out [/I] Rankings Match JD Morgan vs [B]Rolling Johnny Stones[/B] [I]Punishment time is almost over as RJS enters the title picture again.[/I] ROF Championship Merle O’Curle © vs [B]UK Dragon[/B] [I]This will be the shock of the night given the massively long previous reigns of the Celtic God of Wrestling[/I]

Rankings Match Hugh de Aske vs [B]Kevin Jones[/B] You've made me a Kevin Jones fan. ROF Talisman Title [B]Nigel Svensson ©[/B] vs Don Henderson I like Nigel as champion even though his picture looks dopey. Steel Cage Match Dark Angel vs [B]'Wrath Of God’ Jack Giedroyc[/B] Giedroyc evens this up a bit more. ROF Tag Team Titles Warriors of Honour © vs [B]The Show Stealers[/B] Show Stealers FTW. Rankings Match [B]JD Morgan[/B] vs Rolling Johnny Stones [I]JD gets the next shot he'll retire soon and I'd like to see him in the title seen again.[/I] ROF Championship [B]Merle O’Curle ©[/B] vs UK Dragon [I]O'Curle will hold this title until some one retires him through injury. He is a celtic god of death[/I]

[B]ROF Dying Embers – April 2011[/B] Rankings Match Hugh de Aske vs [B]Kevin Jones[/B] [I]- I know, I know. You're all thinking... uh Beeker, Kevin Jones is still using the 'Shane Douglas Memorial Belly to Belly Suplex' Finisher. Ah ha! Astute indeed. But... de Aske's on his slide AND Jones debuts a real finisher! Huzzah![/I] ROF Talisman Title [B]Nigel Svensson ©[/B] vs Don Henderson [I]- Poor Don. He's caught being better than the Talisman but not quite ready for the Main Event. But Svensson wins again with his Hyper-extension ArmBAR getting it over as a dangerous move.[/I] Steel Cage Match Dark Angel vs [B]‘Wrath Of God’ Jack Giedroyc[/B] [I]- Giedroyc finally unleashes his rightful wrath upon the pagan infidel Dark Alba![/I] ROF Tag Team Titles [B]Warriors of Honour ©[/B] vs The Show Stealers [I]- British Samurai opts not to hot shot the titles off him. Owner's perogative.[/I] Rankings Match [B]JD Morgan[/B] vs Rolling Johnny Stones [I]- Yup, JD gets another dance with O'Curle since they always deliver and Morgan's not been in the ME for a while.[/I] ROF Championship [B]Merle O’Curle ©[/B] vs UK Dragon [I]- I hoping for a shorter reign for O'Curle but the travelworn Dragon is not the man to dethrone him.[/I]

[QUOTE=Apupunchau@optonline;337752]Hoping for a shorter reign? Shame on you Beeker J/K We must brainwash you to become an O'Curle follower, :)[/QUOTE] I picked O'Curle to win dammit. I just don't want another 13 months of Monsieur O'Curle and his charming interview stylings. And I think an angry and focused O'Curle feeling some sort of injustice about his shortened reign would give O'Curle another angle to his persona. And I am a fan of O'Curle.
