Wave of Violence vs UNITY: The long standing rivalry between W.O.V and UNITY continued to simmer throughout the year. * Only three options, looking back I had plenty of good short term rivalries throughout the year, but not enough long term ones, those were the three long term rivarlies that stood out to me and some of them seem to have been going on since FCW began ! It's part of why W.O.V are set to break up, so that I can freshen things up a bit for next year and start some new rivalries. __________________________________________________ ________ Match of the Year Da Power vs Nicky R!ot vs J.D Morgan (Marzo En Batalla) [b]Rey De Reyes Finals: Angel De Mexico vs Harry Allen vs J.D Morgan vs Nicky R!ot vs Ultimate Phoenix (Rey De Reyes 2010)[/b] Da Power vs J.D Morgan vs Ultimate Phoenix (Anniversario III) Da Power vs Ultimate Phoenix (Miedo De La Obscuridad) Ultimate Phoenix vs Phoenix Negra (Batalla Final 2010) __________________________________________________ _____ Show Of the Year [b]Rey De Reyes 2009 (August)[/b] Anniversario II (September) Batalla Final (December) __________________________________________________ ______ Best Newcomer * Which newcomer to FCW in 2010 has made the most impact Bulldozer Brandon Smith Darryl Devine [b]Phoenix Negra[/b] [i]Easy choice[/i] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

markish Posted January 9, 2009 Share Posted January 9, 2009 Wrestler of the Year J.D Morgan I have a lot of love in my heart for JD Morgan anyway, but I absolutely love how he is used in this diary. __________________________________________________ _________ Tag Team of the Year UNITY (Harry Allen/Nickt R!ot) Any tag-team that subverts the arguing leading to breaking up thing are good by me. Plus I have a save where they are a great little team too, using the same pictures __________________________________________________ __________ Feud Of The Year Da Power vs J.D Morgan vs Ultimate Phoenix : This was closely contested with the Einstein storyline, but this was the one that got me more involved. I was CONVINCED Phoenix had it at Anniversario. THe build was perfect. Senor Lopez and his frikkin' creative control... . __________________________________________________ ________ Match of the Year Da Power vs J.D Morgan vs Ultimate Phoenix (Anniversario III) Like I say, this match and the story leading into it just sucked me right in. Great job. __________________________________________________ _____ Show Of the Year Anniversario III (September) Was between this and the Rey de Reyes, but the Main Event and the big event feel push this over the top. __________________________________________________ ______ Best Newcomer Darryl Devine DD has single-handedly reinvigorated the People's Champ division and is a very snappy dresser. Plus I just love him anyway... Long may this diary continue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tigerkinney Posted January 10, 2009 Author Share Posted January 10, 2009 [CENTER][B][U]January in Review[/U][/B][/CENTER] We decided to act on the idea of switching to a 'touring' schedule over the Christmas period. It won't be a touring schedule as such, in the style of the Japanese promotions and the amount of shows we put on in the months we are active will depend on what sort of financial state we are in from the previous month. January was the first of four months we will be taking off throughout the year, May and June will be a mid year break, whilst October will also be a month off between the Anniversario show and the build to Batalla Final. Next month will see us put on our first few shows outside of Puerto Rico, with plans to put on shows in the Tri-State and South East regions on the mainland U.S. I'm not in any illusion that the ventures will be a major success and more than likely they will be a loss making venture but they should help increase our exposure in those areas further and it's a good thing that the month off (not paying anyones wages) has generated a large chunk of extra cash (about $50,000). In personnel moves M.C Speed has signed a contract extension, whilst Thomas Morgan and Capitao Brasil Jr have joined on 'trial' contracts and will be hoping to impress enough in the three months they will be with FCW to earn a more permanente contract. [CENTER]__________________________________________________________[/CENTER] [CENTER][B][U]Rival Promotion Watch[/U][/B][/CENTER] 4C kicked off the year reasonably strong with the 2011 edition of their annual Cage Rage event earning a C+ rating overall. The main event was an excellent (B- rated) first defence of the 4C Championship from Nate Johnson, in a Cage Escape match also featuring Young Leo and Joey Poison. Damian Carvill defeated Shane Nelson in a C+ rated semi main event and Lee Rivera retained the hardcore title against Philip LaGrenier in a C rated match, those matches also took place inside the steel cage. CZCW's first show of the year Revolution 2011 was an up and down affair resulting in a C+ rating overall. The main event was a B- rated special attraction tag match that saw Andre Jones team with Whippy to defeat Donnie J and Ultimate Phoenix, but Harry Allen made a disappointing defence (rated C-) of the Coastal Zone Championship against Fox Mask. There were some stronger matches earlier in the show as Remmy Skye defeated Snap Dragon in a B- rated loser leaves town match and Plague made a succesful defence of the Xtreme title against Matt Sparrow that also earned a B- rating. However that proved to be be Plagues final defence as he has now departed for the SWF. CZCW seem to be going through a transitional stage right now, and the losses of long time stalwarts Plague and Snap Dragon will be felt, whilst Cliff Anderson seems determined to continue with Harry Allen's disappointing run. If there's one criticism of Anderson's booking over the years, is that he doesn't recognise when a title reign is not working out, often resulting in title reigns that outstay their welcome. MAW put on the annual edition of the Rip Chord Invitational, the show rated C+ overall, though it was felt that the tournament actually deteriorated in quality as it went along. Madman Boone defeated Darryl Devine (C), Shady K (C) and Steve Flash (C-) in the finals (where both competitors were clearly out of gas) in the finals to claim the trophy for the second year running. Match of the night was the C+ first round match between Flash and Kirk Jameson. Whilst others to take part in this years tournament included Mick Muscles, Billy Russell and James Hernandez. NYCW followed up their best show in years, with another solid show in Rush Hour (C+ overall), Steve Flash retained the Empire Title against Whippy the Clown in a C+ rated main event and The Mean Machine defeated Snow Fox in a C+ semi main event. However the event was blighted by a dreadful E+ rated Tri State Regional title match, as Honest Franks long reign brought to an end by Land Mass in embarassing fashion. PSW's Wrestlenation event was up to their usual standard (D+), the main event wasn't too bad a C- tag match between J.D Morgan and Remmy Skye against Henry Lee and The Punisher that rated as a C- and Johnny Martin retained the PSW Championship against The Wolverine in a D+ rated match. These two have met each other so much now, that pretty much no one cares. Kirk Jameson retained the RIPW championship in a C- rated match against Madman Boone, in the main event of the D+ rated Suckerpunch event. MAW, CZCW and NYCW all put on reasonably strong first shows of the year during our month off and PSW and RIPW perform to their usual standard of mediocrity. [CENTER]___________________________________________________________[/CENTER] [CENTER][B][U]January News and Notes From Around The Wrestling World[/U][/B][/CENTER] [B]General News[/B] ELPF (European League of Professional Fighters) was opened up by journeyman wrestler Gareth Wayne. Based in Central Europe, Wayne has said that ELPF will provide a hybrid form of wrestling, mixing realistic old school wrestling with MMA and fast paced modern influences. Fellow journeyman Bob Casey has been given the book, for a promotion many feel wont last long, due to the fact that there are two promotions struggling to established themselves in Europe already and they have a head start over the fledgling ELPF. Time will tell if their hybrid product gives them a unique edge over their rivals or is doomed to failure as many are already predicting. [B]Worker Signings[/B] Darryl Devine has returned to 4C, the promotion he originally built his reputation with between 2003 and 2007. AAA boost their roster with the edition of Nadia Snow. CGC have added former SWF World Champion Engyma and Sgt Bubba Lee West to their roster. Marty Papin is the latest announcer to sit alongside Cueball Lynch at the CWWF announce table , following the departure of Cliff Anderson from the position. Obviously Dane O'Hara is not interested in taking up the position, as he probably suffers enough Cueball working for FCW. CZCW have added California Love Machine and Ekuma The Hawaiian Strongman to their roster. Apart from Gareth Wayne and Bob Caseym ELPF's initial roster will consist of: Scheming Behemoth, Rahabad Lawal, Billy Robinson, Edward Cornell, Jacques and Pierre DuPont, Robert Milano, Puffy The Sand Iron Player, Haiti Voodude, Mr Evilness, Scott Van Den Berg and Beast Banton. The commentary team will consist of Tara Green and 18 year old Portuguese rookie Juan Soler. Fellow newcomer to the business Lucas Johansen (from Norway) joins as the referee. Marianne has been hired as a ring girl, but may eventually be used in a managerial capacity for somone and EWA color commentator Arson Wells has been hired to take on Road Agent duties. Following his release from TCW, Edd Stone made the shocking decision to go on tour with Japanese up-starts Exodus 2010. To be honest this is a bigger story in North America, than in Japan where despite the reputation of his brother Duane's exploits in BHOTWG, Edd remains somewhat unknown. However it now seems that Edd is trying to follow in his brothers footsteps, after burning bridges back in Canada and failing to make little impact in TCW after the initial buzz following his arrival in Tommy Cornell's promotion. White Samurai has signed on with INSPIRE with a PPA deal. MHW boost their roster with the addition of SOTBPW's Tijuana Vampire. NYCW have added Justin Sensitive to their roster. Daniel Black Francis has signed on for ROF, following his surprise departure from 21CW. Snap Dragon has joined SAISHO on a developmental contract, this is a blow to PGHW's rivals BHOTWG, with whom Snap Dragon held their Junior Tag Team Gold. After years of making a name of himself on the American independent circuit, interspersed with tours of Japan, Black Eagle is finally on his way to the big leagues after signing on with SWF. It is thought that Eagle was recommended by CZCW owner Cliff Anderson who joins SWF's announce team (er does he have his own promotions best interest at heart here ?), feeling that Eagle has done all he can in CZCW. SWF also sign Erik Strong, three months after his departure from rivals TCW and Colussus (Hells Bouncer) who many feel has the potential to be one of the next great monster heels in the business. However SWF did suffer a defection, as Kurt Laramee showed once again he only goes to whoever is willing to pay him the most money, joining rivals TCW instead and former SWF talent Akima Brave has also joined rivals TCW, where he will work under his real name of Malilli Umaga. USPW sign Remmy Skye and Casey Valentine (who has obvious family connections with his Uncle Peter still employed by Sam Strong's promotion) and Nicky Champion (Nicky R!ot in FCW) has rejoined USPW. In an online interview USPW owner Sam Strong, said that he never intended to yet Nicky go, but contract negotiations at the time broke down. [B]Worker Extensions[/B] A busy month of contract renegotiatians for 21CW, as they renew the contracts of Jonathan Faust, Pitbull Brown, Stevie Stoat, Joey Beauchamp, Igor Ivanoff, Chuck Frisby and road agent Colin 'The Steamroller' Chalke. 4C extend the contracts of Damian Carvill, Lighnting Lomas and commentator Ted Ross. 5SSW extend the contracts of Raku Makuda, Megumi Nakajima and Rei Chikanatsu AAA extend the contracts of Suzue Katayama and Black Widow.

BHOTWG offer new exclusive written deals to Junior Division stalwarts Marihito Masuko and Hyosuke Kokan, plus Junior Divsion legend turned road agent Optimus and referee Koetsu Shinozaki.

SWF give new written contracts of manager Playboy Jake Sawyer and referee Jez McArthur. Jay Chord and road agent Robert Oxford both sign new written contracts with TCW. UEW extend the contracts of Haiti Voodude, road agent Nathaniel Pross and commentator Lawrence Young. USPW extend he contracts of Puerto Rican Power, T-Rex, Danny Rushmore, manager Captain USA and general hanger on Sheik Mustafa. Eisaku Hoshino keeps his lucrative PPA deal with WLW rolling on, whilst retired manager turned manager Junnosuke Fukazawa and commentator Taka Kajiwara sign new written contracts. [B]Worker Releases/Departures[/B] Daniel Black Francis caused a shock when he decided to leave 21CW and sign on solely for rival promotion ROF, it particularly comes as a shock as DBF held both the U.K and Tag Team titles prior to his departure. Buff Martinez also departs. Jen Neptune and Dharma Gregg were both not offered new contracts by AAA and return to being exclusive property of BSC. Ian Herring (Black Eagle) and Akima Brave leave CGC after signing exclusive written contracts with SWF and TCW respectively. Akima Brave (Malilli Umaga) also departs MAW and NYCW. Cliff Anderson leaves his position at the CWWF announce table, after being offered a chance to work at the SWF. Plague (Black Eagle) also departs CZCW, as does Snap Dragon (who also leaves MPWF to sign on with PGHW's development territory SAISHO) and Casey Valentine also departs, as he wishes to concentrate on his commitments with various East Coast promotions. MHW were dealt their first pair of setbacks with the departures of Magnifico and Spanish Superfly. Erik Strong' stay in NYCW proved to be a short one, after he was offered the chance to work for the SWF. Ash Campbell has left PSW, after he decided not to sign a contract extension with the Pittsburgh based 'hardcore redux' promotion. Verdugo Estupendo is let go by SOTBPW. Kurt Laramee leaves SWF after defecting to rivals TCW, The Eisen's clearly were not happy with this development, especially as Laramee was one half of SWF's Tag Team Champions alongside Big Smack Scott. Edd Stone leaves TCW, after he was not offered a new written contract ending a disappointing run with the promotion and Mean Jean Cattley also ends his association with TCW, after he felt he was only ever going to be used as a jobber and wished to concentrate on his work with MAW and NYCW instead. USPW lose Colussus (Hells Bouncer) to SWF and Eric The Bull also leaves after they fail to come to agreement over a new contract. [B]Injuries[/B] APW's Nathan McKenzie suffered a herniated Spinal Disc just days after signing a new contract. He will now be out of action for the rest of the year. GCG's Kiminobu Kuruoki will be taking a month off to recover from Knee Ligament Damage. [B]Media News[/B] WLW's plan for world domination keeps rolling along as they sign a PPV deal with North America Prime Select. [B]Title Changes[/B] Both the 21CW United Kingdom and Tag Team Championships have been vacated following the shock departure of Daniel Black Francis. Etsuko Ariyoshi wins the 5SSW World Title for a second time, ending the five month reign of Fuyuko Higa. Charlize Angelle and Missy Masterson (Full Force) are the new AAA Tag Team Champions ending the near two year reign of Lilly & Rose.

Jed High and Popper Punisher (Team Tidal Wave) defeated Giants of the Ring (Big Bad and Herschel Hammer) to win the EWA Tag Team Titles. Jeffery McPeterson teamed up with Kevin Jones to win the MOSC UK Tag Team Titles, ending the latest reign of the UK Wrecking Crew. Electrico is the new MHW Campeon del Mundo, after defeating the departing Magnifico. Madman Boone defeated Steve Flash in the finals of this years RCI tournament in MAW. Full details of the tournament already diclosed in the rival promotion watch section. Land Mass became the new Tri-State Regional champion in NYCW ending the near three year reign of Honest Frank.

Tigerkinney Posted January 11, 2009 Author Share Posted January 11, 2009 [CENTER][SIZE=3][COLOR=teal][B][I][U]Delorean Driver.com[/U][/I][/B][/COLOR][/SIZE] [I][B][SIZE=3][COLOR=teal][U]Your Top Wrestling News Site[/U][/COLOR][/SIZE][/B][/I][/CENTER] [B]Notes From A Small Island[/B]: After a one month new year break, FCW return to action with their first ever show outside of Puerto Rico, as they head over to the Evanovich Riverside Sports Club in Edison, New Jersey to present Invasion del Continente on Monday 7th February 2011. FCW's first ever show not be held on their home turf of Puerto Rico will be headlined by a double main event as recently crowned People's champion Darryl Devine puts his belt on the line against respected veteran Steve Flash, who is no stranger to success in front of the Tr-State Region crowds. The other major match will be a special attraction tag match pitting Undisputed Champion J.D Morgan against Da Power with partners of their choice. Just who will Morgan and Power pick as their tag partners. It also appears that despite the fact they have yet to officially seal their alliance, someone in the Totally Einstein camp has managed to get them a Tag Title shot against Animal Magic. Will the masked pair make a succesful first defence of their titles or will Totally Einstein continue their winning ways since their unlikely reunion and claim the titles for a second time ? Dean Daniels will be looking to get back on the winning track since losing the People's Championship at Batalla Final, but so will his opponent former tag team champion UNITY's Harry Allen and Allen's tag partner Nicky R!ot takes on Dean Waldorf of the Ring Generals.

markish Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 Peoples Championship: [B]Darryl Devine[/B] vs Steve Flash This seems like a no-brainer. DD rolls through a quality challenger, Flash gets a hero's welcome in the Tri-State area and you get a great Main Event. Sorted. Special Attraction Tag: J.D Morgan & Primus vs [B]Da Power & Ultimate Phoenix[/B] It's my wacky cello prediction. I had this as Morgan/Ultimate against Power/Negra for a second, then remembered how that ended last time and how unlikely Negra was to side with Power again. This way I see Power trying to pair off his two biggest foes, but getting caught up in fighting a new one, leading to Phoenix beating Morgan on his way to becoming number one contender. It's out-there, but it could happen. Also, I doubt you'd have a show without Ultimate on it. Especially in a new market. Tag Team Championship: [B]Animal Magic[/B] vs Totally Einstein There is very definitely still legs in the uneasy alliance of Hernandez and Bradford. I see Mainstream's lack of trust costing them this match, but in the end those crazy kids will work it out and we'll get a nice feel-good moment. Or Hernandez will totally flip out one day and ironically become what he claims Brad to be. Either way, the masked ones take this. [B]Dean Daniels[/B] vs Harry Allen Freankly, Allen isn't worth much on his own, whereas Daniels is getting a fairly large push to ME status. This seems fairly straight-forward [B]Nicky R!ot[/B] vs Dean Waldorf Because UNITY need a win on the main show. And I have a lot of time for the former Tom E. Hawk. [B]Angel De Mexico[/B] vs Marv Statler Bad night for the Generals. They're one of those tems that are solid together and very clearly more than the sum of their parts. I'd be shocked if either of them ever won a singles match. [B]Bulldozer Brandon Smith [/B]vs Mr Electricity One of my favourite things about the different diaries on this board is the different paths characters take. Compare these two to their counterparts in Casey's MAW diary, for instance. There they are a goofy and loveable championship-winning team in complete harmony and equality. Here, Singh is just disco-dancing cannon-fodder for the monster Smith. It's funny how things go. [B]Arthur Dexter Bradley[/B] vs Jeremiah Moose Moose doesn't win. That's not a spoiler or a prediction, it's a fact. 4CS: [B]Charles Rainier[/B] vs Lefte Wilkes vs Matt Hocking vs Captain Morgan Basically a crap-shoot, but Rainier is (I tyhink) the highest on the card. Him or Hocking anyway. I was hoping for JJ against Negra somewhere on this card as well... If only to be smug about knowing who Negra is. Ah well, my smugness and JJ's turn to the dark-side can wait. I want a DJ-Squared team at some point with Devine and Jared by the by. Just for giggles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well it actually kicks off with the sight of Mr Electricity disco dancin' his way down the ramp to the tune of Ottawan's 1980 hit D.I.S.C.O.This was a heel vs heel match but Mr Electricity was the default face here, due to the fact that his opponent is even more disliked by the crowd. BBS general attitude since coming into FCW, probably making him the most hated man in FCW behind Da Power. Funny moment at the start of the match as Mr Electricity tries to get BBS to disco dance with him, but BBS just levels him with a stiff fore-arm instead, thing is that almost got a face reaction from the crowd. BBS then continued to dominate Mr Electricty, until the disco dancin' one then managed to slip out the ring, got BBS to chase him, and then sneaked in a low blow followed by a roll up for a two count. Mr Electricity then continued to frustrate BBS with a hit and run attack, that included a close two count off a second rope bulldog. But that only seemed to anger BBS, who then into overdrive levelling Mr Electricity with a lariat and then dumping the flamboyant disco dancer on his neck wtith a Backdrop Driver to pick up the victory. It seemed a bit strange to start the main show off with a match right away, but O'Hara and Lynch (who were set to hype the main events) were having problem with their equipment and we had to go straight to match action. This was a solid match and BBS and Singh had some noticeable chemistry with each other, but if felt a bit flat due to the fans not really wanting to cheer either man.

He comes out flanked by Carl Batch.[/I] [COLOR=red][B]Da Power:[/B] I'll make this clear and I'll make it simple, Primus get your butt down here now ![/COLOR] [I]No response[/I] [COLOR=red][B]Da Power:[/B] I said get your damn butt to this ring !![/COLOR] [I]Still no response, Carl Batch takes the mic[/I] [COLOR=darkred][B]Carl Batch:[/B] Come on Primus you heard the champ, business needs to be sorted out bro'.[/COLOR] [I]Primus then appears with a microphone in his hand.[/I] [COLOR=indigo][COLOR=purple][B]Primus:[/B] The only business that needs to be sorted out, is dumping that egomaniac from W.O.V. he ain't no brutha.....he's just in it for himself[/COLOR].[/COLOR] [COLOR=red][B]Da Power:[/B] In it for myself, Wave of Violence was going nowhere, I helped take you to the top.[/COLOR] [COLOR=purple][B]Primus:[/B] You helped take us to the top ?

Shakes Da Power's hand and the two embrace. [COLOR=darkred][B]Carl Batch:[/B] I don't give a damn about whose side I'm on, all the Batchmeister gives a damn about is who will bring him the money....and I'm afraid Primus. Power is more money than you, you could be in on that money, if you knew your damn role, but you had to make out you were a real playa...you ain't no playa Primus. We're the playa's.[/COLOR] [COLOR=red][B]Da Power:[/B] Primus, I'm willing to give you a chance, if you climb in this ring, shake our hands, kiss our feet....then hey I'll forgive you for what you did at Batalla Final. I mean really Primus it'd be in your best interests to do so.[/COLOR] [COLOR=purple][B]Primus:[/B] No Da Power it would only be in YOUR interests, and Batch you've just shown yourself to be real weak bro. But I know the Speedster ain't weak like you, I know he believes in what W.O.V was truly about. I know he'd believed in taking us brutha's to the top.........[/COLOR] [COLOR=red][B]Da Power:[/B] I wouldn't be so sure about that.........[/COLOR] [I]At that point M.C Speed sneaks up from behind and cracks a steel chair over the head of Primus.........Primus starts to fight back but then Da Power steps out of the ring and it becomes a two on one, but then J.D Morgan comes rushing out and begins to clean house, that gives Primus time to recover.......Da Power wanting to save himself for later scurries out of the ring but leaves M.C Speed at the mercy of J.D Morgan and Primus. Morgan dumps Speed with a Half Nelson Suplex, then a groggy Speed staggers back to his feet only to be cut in half with a Rruuuussssshhhh!!! from his now looking to be former tag partner Primus[/I]. [I]Morgan then takes a mic.......[/I] [COLOR=navy][B]J.D Morgan:[/B] Primus I know we've never been on the same side, and I won't pretend that we are suddenly best friends, but it looks like we have a mutual dislike now for Da Power. So what do you say to being my tag partner tonight ?[/COLOR] [I]Primus thinks about it, and then shakes Morgan's hand sealing the deal to be Morgan's tag partner for later in the show.[/I] [B]Ratings: D for Da Power and Primus back and forth on the microphone, D- for W.O.V attack followed by J.D Morgan making the save.

That seemed to soften Allen up enough that Daniels went for a Powerbomb attempt only for Allen to counter with a victory roll. The former Peoples champ then retook control but an Enziguri from the UNITY man, got Allen some breathing space, before he planting Daniels into the mat with a bulldog. Allen then went up top to set up for the Flying Fist Drop but Daniels was back up, and he was able to send Allen crashing back into the ring with a superplex for a two count. Both then staggered up to their feet but Allen was able to take Daniels by suprise with a drop-kick before suprising Daniels with a leg lariat....leading to a two count. Daniels then staggered up to his feet and was planted into the mat with a Rocker Dropper but the former Peoples champ was able to kick out, however he remaind planted to the mat and Allen decided to take to the air once again. This time Allen came crashing down with the Flying Fist Drop but it appears Daniels was playing possum, as he was able roll out of the way and when Allen got back to his feet he was levelled with a vicious lariat from Daniels. From there on it was all Dean Daniels, who reeled off a series of suplexes, before putting a plucky Harry Allen away with a relentless barrage of trapped knees, that left Bret Graveson with no choice but to call for the bell. Solid match but it felt a few minutes too long and served as further proof that Harry Allen should remain in the Tag ranks.

Just as it looks like Daniels is going to add further injury with a Raise the Stakes, Nicky R!ot comes rushing out to save his Tag Partner.

This was basically a glorified squash match but a very solid one at that, as Waldorf did a good job of putting R!ot over, who out of anyone in UNITY probably has the best chance of a singles push. R!ot got the job done with the 'Charles Peterson' (Exploder Suplex), which may just be the silliest named finisher in the history of professional wrestling. Answers on a post code for who or what is Charles Peterson and why would R!ot name his finisher after him.

Bradford Peverall managed to dominate Cougar with some good old fashioned brawling techniques and then went to tag in Mainstream Hernandez, only for Hernandez to refuse the tag and drop down off the apron. That allowed Cougar to turn things round against Peverall. Animal Magic soon had Peverall isolated in their corner, whilst Sara Silver berated Mainstream Hernandes for refusing the tag. With Animal Magic wearing Peverall down with quick tags and Hernandez arguing with Silver, it didn't look at all hopeful for the challengers. However Peverall was able to block an attempt at an Assisted Fox Flip Off DDT before levelling both members of Animal Magic with consecutive Rock Hard Uppercuts, before slumping to the mat. However a Peverall crawled over, Hernandez looked completely disinterested, however Sara Silver threatened to leave Hernandez, telling him it's over if he doesn't make the tag and with those words ringing in his ears a reluctant Hernandez made the tag. The Mainstreamer briefly dominated, taking both members of Animal Magic down with drop-kicks and nailing Masked Cougar with a Super-Kick, but it was clear his heart wasn't it covering Cougar with a lax cover where he failed to hook the leg. Cougar kicked out and Fox Mask was soon back up to help his partner, leading to Hernandez this time becoming isolated in their corner. It looked all over when Cougar took the Mainstreamer down with a Cougar Pouncem, but Bradford Peverall dived in to make the save before being sent back to his corner. However that gave Hernandez some time to find some composure, because when Animal Magic moved in for the Last Hunt, he was able to roll out the way, then take down Cougar with a leg-sweep before nailing Fox Mask with a Leg-Lariat. The Mainstreamer then dived over to his corner and showing no ill-will from the fact Hernandez was reluctant to make the tag Peverall was more than happy to oblige. Peverall then cleaned house, before getting Fox Mask in position for the Totally Totalled, spiking the diminutive masked man on his head, only for Cougar to break the pin and dump Peverall out of the ring with a drop-kick. Cougar then barrelled into Peverall with a suicide dive to the outside, only for Hernandez to launch himself off the apron with a plancha. Fox Mask then got up and launched himself over the top with a plancha of his own. With Graveson beginning to lose control Fox Mask and Hernandez re-entered the ring, with the masked man going for the Fox Flip Off DDT but Hernandez was able to block before drilling Fox Mask into the mat with the Pontiac to Home (swinging reverse STO) that earned a two count and Mainstream Hernandez headed up top but just as Hernandez was setting up for the Apparition# 14 , Bulldozer Brandon Smith walked up the ramp distracting Bradford Peverall, the confrontation also distracted Brett Graveson who failed to see Jared Johnson get up on the apron and cream Hernandez over the head with a steel chair ! The Mainstreamer then fell into the ring, and as both himself and Fox Mask got back to their feet, it was the masked man who was up first to nail Hernandez with the Fox Hunter and retain the tag belts, unaware of the assist from Jared Johnson. But why has Double J chosen to attack Hernandez and cost Totally Einstein the Tag Team Titles ? Good Tag Team contest with lots of interesting little plot twists, had this been in Puerto Rico and with the crowd a bit more into it, it probably would have garnered a better rating.

With Primus feeling the effects from Russell's ground and pound offence, Da Power methodically worked over Primus, taunting the big man but he got over confident and when went for the roaring elbow to set up the four moves of doom, Primus came back with an explosive lariat before turning it over to J.D Morgan. Morgan then unleashed a flurry of European Uppercuts on the W.O.V man before taking Da Power down with a hammerlock divorce court, leading to Morgan slapping on the Cross Atlantic Stretch. Power managed to dig down and reach the ropes, and then managed to buy himself some time with an eye poke and cheap shot, before tagging Billy Russell back into the match. Russell then took Morgan down with a double leg take-down and immediately went for the ground knees but Morgan was able to get his guard up, before catching Russell with a European Uppercut and then taking Morgan down to the mat himself. The pair then traded submission holds until Russell was somehow able to get Morgan's right knee trapped in the Kneebar. Howeve their submission exchange saw them land near Billy Russell's corner, and whilst that would normally be deemed a good thing, Russell was none too pleased when he was forced to relinquish the hold because Power decided to tag himself back into the match. Power moved in to 'clean up' but he telegraphed the San Juan Rush, allowing Morgan to move out of the way, before drilling Power with a European Uppercut. That staggered Power, before Morgan took suddenly sent the big man flat onto his back, with an STO. Morgan then got back over to his corner to get the tag back into Primus and as Da Power staggered back to his feet he was cut in half with a Rrruuuuuusssssshhhhh !! That should have had the match won right there, but Primus was pulled out of the ring by Carl Batch and M.C Speed, who then proceeded to lay him out with a slapjack. Morgan went over to check, but was struck from behind by Billy Russell with a low blow, before unleashing the grounded knee flurry. However he was not the official man in the match and when Power got back to his feet he dumped both J.D Morgan and Billy Russell out of the ring. At this point a groggy Primus was rolled back into the ring but as Power strutted around the ring, taunting both the crowd and his opponent, Billy Russell clocked him from behind at the same time was able to make a blind tag, then like hyena feeding on scraps Billy Russell lock in the Twisting Arm Lock, giving Primus no choice but to tap out. I made the right choice by not making this main event, as this was a bit of a disjointed mess that felt more like a match between four individuals than a tag match and whilst that was the storyline. Primus and Morgan didn't have particularly great chemistry as tag partners and Billy Russell looked like someone who had never worked a tag team match before and probably shouldn't be given the opportunity to ever again.

The early portion of the match then saw Flash take Devine to school with some old fashioned mat wrestling, that left the People's champ frustrated. However the newly appointed leader of 'Devine Right' managed to eventually escape Flash's clutches rolling out of the ring to catch a breather. Knowing that the title wouldn't change hands on count out, Flash immediately went after Devine and tried to get the champ back in the ring but Devine showed he was no rookie by drawing Flash out onto the ramp, eventually get in any eye poke, before dropping Flash onto the ramp with a russian leg-sweep. Devine then suddenly sprinted into he ring and waited for Brett Graveson to count Flash out. A mere leg-sweep wasn't going to keep Flash down for long however and he was soon back to his feet, but as he got up on the apron he was knocked back off with a baseball slide from Devine who, then launched himself onto Flash with a slingshot cross body. As both got to their feet it was Devine who remained in control levelling Flash with a fore-arm then whipping the veteran back first into the guard-rail. Devine climbed back into the ring and once again waited for Graveson to count Flash out. But a determined Flash was back up to his feet, and when Devine went for the baseball slide to keep Flash out a second time, the veteran saw it coming moving out of the way....Devine over-shot the move and Flash was there to drill Devine with a SUPERKICK as Devine got back to his feet ! The indy icon then pitched Devine back into the ring and made the cover..... One...... Two....... Thr...... Devine was able to get his shoulder up just in time, saving his title. Flash then picked Devine up whipping the arrogant People's champion into the ropes to set up for the Flash Bang but it appeared that Devine was playing possum as he came right back with the Devine Intervention (Springboard Back Elbow). Flash then got back to his feet but was further stunend with a roaring elbow from Devine, who then dumped Flash with a Northern Lights Suplex....... One..... Two........ Much to Devine's frustration Flash kicked out, the champion then lifted the veteran to his feet and set up for the Devine Dream Drop but Flash was able to block and before Devine could react he was sent back down to the mat and then turned over onto his back as Flash applied the Boston Crab. Devine tries to make it to the ropes but Flash refused to let go pulling Devine into the middle of the ring but just as it looked like Flash might be about to make Devine tap, Devine's new friends Jared Johnson and Bulldozer Brandon Smith stepped up onto the apron, causing Brett Graveson to become distracted. But Devine IS tapping, this match should be over ! Graveson sent Johnson and BBS to the back, but in doing so he failed to notice Devine tapping to the Boston Crab, we should have had a new People's champ there and then. Uncharateristically it got Flash flustered enough to let go of the hold and begin to argue with Brett Graveson, allowing Devine to club Flash from behind. Devine then spun Flash round and double under hooked the arms and drove Flash face first into the mat with a DEVINE DREAM DROP ! One....... Two....... Thr........ Nooo !!! To Devine's disbelief Steve Flash kicked out. Devine then circled round for a bit, weighing up what to do next, he then tried for the Devine Dream Drop again but Flash suddenly exploded into life yet again, coming back with a rally of fore-arms and chops that suddenly had Devine on the back foot....Flash was suddenly in control again and set up for the Flash Bang but Devine had the move scouted ducking under, before halting Flash's last gasp rally with a roaring elbow. With the wind taken out of Flash's sails, Devine then delivered a kick to the mid-section befor driving Flash face fist into the mat once again with the Devine Dream Drop and this time it was all over. This was the right choice to go with as the main event but with Flash's reputation in the Tri-State territory I was hoping for even better, perhaps I was expecting to much because a C+ should never be scoffed at.

This show would have been a poor one back at home but here in the sweatbox that is the Evanovich Riverside sports club it was enough for the fans who did come, to go away satisfied.

markish Posted January 13, 2009 Share Posted January 13, 2009 The Charles Peterson question is easier to answer than the Phoenix Negra one, and I'm still smug about getting that. Charles Peterson was (and, uh, probably still is) a photographer who was very involved in the early 90's grunge scene, particularly Nirvana. Notably R!ot's other trademark is the Sub Pop Bop, Sub Pop being pivotal players in the grunge scene too... R!ot needs to move on, yo. It's the 21st Century now. Hmm... Where were your Phoenixes at that last show? I felt a hollow, empty and dead feeling with them not there... (Not really, but it was odd) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tigerkinney Posted January 13, 2009 Author Share Posted January 13, 2009 You sir are right on all accounts regarding Charles Peterson. He still is a photographer but has expanded his repetoire beyond black and white 'action' shots of sweaty long haired men playing guitars. Part of the reasoning behind Nicky R!ot calling his Exploder Suplex, the 'Charles Peterson' is that he thinks it looks as good as a Charles Peterson photo when he delivers it. Charles was and still is a master of his craft. Leaving the Phoenixes off the last show as a cost cutting measure, but I probably should have had at least on of them on the show and cost cut somewhere else. Wish I thought off the theory you had for the Special Attraction Tag match in your predictions, as I'm sure I would have got a better rating if Phoenix was in that match, oh well can't undo what cannot be undone.

Anyway this was a back and forth affair but Darryl Devine was able to distract Mainstream Hernandez enough for him to crash an burn on an Apparition #14 attempt. BBS then dropped Hernandez on his head with the Back-Drop Driver, Peverall then made the save nailing BBS with a Rock Hard Uppercut but Jared Johnson sneaked in a low from behind, BBS then recovered to take Peverall's head off with a lariat.

The match started as a brawl with Devine's flippant disregard of my credentials as a challenger to his belt firing me up, however Devine weathered the storm and turned the match round via old fashioned heel tactics. He then tried to put me away with the Devine Dreams (Sleeper) but I refused to give up and that lead to my comeback. Devine was able to block the C.R Driver but was unable to block a rolling cutter, which lead to me going up top for a moonsault but Devine was able to crotch me from behind then bring me back in with a superplex. Devine then took control from there and put me away with the Devine Dream Drop.

Primus then tagged Flash into the match but a cheap shot from Da Power from the apron turned things round for the Wave of Violence pair. Flash then played 'Spencer Marks' for a long portion of the match until he finally got the hot tag into fired up Primus. Primus cleaned house, for a bit until it basically broke down into a chaotic brawl. When it got back into the ring Da Power was duking it out with Steve Flash...Power went for the roaring elbow but Flash ducked under and caught Power with the Flash Bang. Speed broke up the pin though with a running knee strike only for Primus to cut him in half with a Rruuuuusssshhh !! leading to victory for the faces ! A reasonably good tag match that is serviceable as a main event for these En Viaje shows. [B][COLOR=red]Result: Primus and Steve Flash defeated Da Power and M.C Speed in 10:34 when Primus defeated M.C Speed by pinfall. [/COLOR][/B] [B][/B] [B][COLOR=red]Rating: D+[/COLOR][/B] [I]Flash and Primus are celebrating when Power and Carl Batch sneak up from behind and take the pair out with slapjack shots. Power continues to stomp away on the pair with Batch also getting in cheap shots, eventually though Primus and Flash begin to fight back causing the W.O.V pair to scarper, as soon as it starts to become an even fight again. [/I] [I]As they head back up the ramp Da Power begins to berate M.C Speed for not joining in with the beatdown,as Primus and Flash stand tall.[/I] [B]Rating: E+[/B] [B][SIZE=3][COLOR=sienna]Overall: D[/COLOR][/SIZE][/B] Our Florida debut wasn't a great show but it was decent enough to help increase our popularity in another new market.

Tigerkinney Posted January 16, 2009 Author Share Posted January 16, 2009 [B]O.O.C Note:[/B] Unlikely that any of you are wondering what has happened to this diary, or even thought things have gone quiet on the FCW front ? Well I will be taking a short break from the diary. I've got a stack of around 10 ROH DVD's through the post this week, so my focus is on watching them right now. So things will continue to be a bit quiet in this diary over the next week, but it will be back...probably sooner than you/I expect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Casey Posted January 17, 2009 Share Posted January 17, 2009 I was wondering - just as I got caught up you go a few days without posting. (I think I got caught up to BriFidelity's NYCW diary just as he was coming to an end... Since then I've been wondering I might be a curse :p) But hey, take your time TK. Recharge, pick up a few ideas, and see you back soon, I hope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LFC_chris Posted January 17, 2009 Share Posted January 17, 2009 I hope it comes back soon, it's by far my favourite diary on here. But if you need a break, then you need a break :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tigerkinney Posted January 19, 2009 Author Share Posted January 19, 2009 [B][B]O.O.C Note: [/B][/B] Slight change of plan. Though I don't think I'll get the next show up till Friday at the earliest, I figured I might as well put up the preview for the next show. Preview should be up within the next hour.
