PSW: The Evolution of Greed

[Nedew]

I'm really trying to convey two stories... What takes place in the ring from a creative standpoint... And... The "Evolution of John Greed".

 

And that is probably the thing that I love the most about this diary. Two very different subjects, the events of a wrestling promotion and the events of an addicts recovery and social struggles - yet they just tie in perfectly.

And that is probably the thing that I love the most about this diary. Two very different subjects, the events of a wrestling promotion and the events of an addicts recovery and social struggles - yet they just tie in perfectly.

 

That's awesome, Nedew. When I constructed the diary, I wasn't sure what kind of response would follow as my X-WA diary was a hit and miss with most readers and, in this case, there would be just as much focus on John Greed as there was to the creative end of his job as a headbooker.

 

For me, why I think the two mix well is because John's at the helm of a dark, cult-based, violent product. So, in a sense, something as gritty as addiction and psychological self-destruction, factors in perfectly well as to what's happening in the ring. ya know? One kind of meshes with the other and vice versa. I think that's why PSW was the best choice for John to end up in after his injury, loss of a career, and his addiction to pain killers.... As, PSW is such a crazy environment... Probably not conducive to his sobriety, however, will benefit greatly from his perspective on life.

Loved reading this comment, Marcel. haha.

 

Nelson has recieved slight fanfare since he made the "main card" this month.. but, it'll be hard for the youngster to go over on someone of Russell's stature (both character-wise and backstage-wise). Either way, I'm looking at this match as somewhat of a try out for the youngin'. I know the grade won't be great since they both don't have great Psych skills... but... It'll be good to see what we're looking at right now with this guy.

[falling_star]

Billy Russell vs. Nelson Callum - Billy Russell kills bitches

The Sensational Singh vs. ????? - Win starts the push of whoever debuts, possibly to leech some overness/train up (not sure of Singh's stats in your game, or the stats of the mystery man)

Teddy Powell © Mr. Morgan vs. Harry Allen - Allen's getting a good push, and the titles are all held by heels at the moment

KILLER Colossus vs. Madman Boone - Colossus looks like he is being pushed toward the title picture, but this is the one I'm least confident about picking

Bryan Holmes © vs. Lead Belly - Because Bryan Holmes is the ****ing man!

PSW Tag Champions, "The Dirty White Boys"

... Following Up on a Promise ...

 

[PSW's first event of 2009, "Battle Line", opens with the sight of the PSW Tag Champions, "The Dirty White Boys", storming down to the ring on a pair of old, and rusted, steel hogs. In typical DWB fashion, the "tough as nails" tag team spends a good minute or two circling the ringside area... Chugging back on a few beers, celebrating with the crowd, and talking a few choice females in the first row to expose themselves. All in all, opening the show with a complete bang. Shortly following their festivities, Lead Belly quickly gets onto the mic... Making due on a promise he levied last month in the direction of PSW Champion, Bryan Holmes.]

 

Lead Belly: F*ck.... This never gets old.

 

[The crowd pop's loudly for Lead Belly as an arrogant smirk grows on his face.]

 

Lead Belly: Me and Greaser here... We put Holmes on notice last month at "Xmas Xtreme". If you don't remember... Let me jog your memory. Just a month ago, We promised Holmes that if he were to make it through Morgan... That we'd be waiting on the other end for his b*tch-ass. [Crowd pop's] Well, somehow, that little p*ssy found his way to victory.... So.... Here we are. Now, don't make me have to drag this out any longer, Holmes. I know this may be hard for a f*cking p*ssy like you to get your ass on out here... but... Be a man for once... Come out here and prove to US that you're a worthy Champion. We don't need to wait for tonight.... F*ck.... lets do this now!

 

[Nothing from Holmes.]

 

Lead Belly: Come on you f*cking b*tch.... Where are you?! Come out... Come out... Where ever you are... You little f*ck-face...

Bryan Holmes

... The Champ arrives ...

 

[With that, Bryan Holmes's theme music kicks in over the "Ministry's" low grade quality sound system. The PSW Champion slowly steps through the black curtains... Staring down the PSW Tag Champions in the process. However, he looks to be content with staying in the entrance isle. Why? Because what the DWB doesn't realize is that they are now in the middle of a trap. As they focus primarily on Holmes... "The Ring Generals" are seen ascending upon the ringside around through the crowd... Jumping the PSW Champions from behind and ultimately gaining control of the situation as both Lead Belly and Grease Hogg were not expecting such a swerve.]

 

http://i880.photobucket.com/albums/ac8/TonyZobeck/Show%20Minis/DeanWaldorf.jpghttp://i880.photobucket.com/albums/ac8/TonyZobeck/Show%20Minis/MarvStatler.jpg

"The Ring Generals"

... Shocking Attack ...

 

[bryan Holmes, now running down to the ring, joins in on the action as the newfound trio makes quick work of the PSW Tag Champions. After a round of impact moves from "The Ring Generals" upon "The Dirty White Boys"... Bryan Holmes, and "The Ring Generals" now with Nicole Kiss, embrace in the middle of the ring with a smattering of high fives. The ultimate sign that a new alliance has formed in Pittsburgh. An alliance that does not bode well for the PSW Tag Champions.]

 

Grade: D+

 

Doc Messing: If you thought Bryan Holmes was dominate before... There's now been an even greater shift in his direction. The "Ring Generals" are now standing in his corner as well... An alliance that could surely keep the strap on Holmes for quite some time.

Remmington Remus: The thing is, though, is that Holmes doesn't really need anyone else to keep his title reign afloat. From what I've seen, from a fan's perspective, Bryan Holmes doesn't really need this alliance to function successfully.

Doc Messing: That's very true... but... With that being said, This just adds to his overall "iron grip" of the company. If you couldn't beat Holmes before... How do you expect to do so with, quite possibly, THE most underrated tag team in Pittsburgh today.

Bryan Russell vs. Nelson Callum

 

There isn't much to say here...

 

other than it was quite obvious that Russell is in a whole other league compared to the young Nelson Callum. Sure, Nelson put up one hell of a fight. His average mat wrestling ability posed as a quasi-threat to the former MMA superstar, Russell, however, in the end... No one expected to see anything less than a dominating victory from the international fighter. Close to 7 minutes into the affair, Russell literally forced Callum into a debilitating submission hold... Locking in a twisting arm bar as Nelson Callum attempted a diamond-cutter like strike.

 

That was it. Nelson knew his time had come and, despite putting forth a valiant effort, was just another victim for Russell to mow over.

 

Billy Russell defeats Nelson Callum in 6:47 via a twisting arm lock submission.

Grade: D-

 

Remmington Remus: I guess you can't say that Nelson didn't try...

Doc Messing: You'll catch on pretty quick, Remmy. [Laughs] The man has yet to lose since joining PSW back in June of 2008.

Remmington Reums: 7-0, right?

Doc Messing: That's right. However, his win total, while impressive, isn't half of the story with this guy.... I've never witnessed a fighter like Russell in the wrestling world. Brutal... precise... to the point....

Remmington Remus: Truly a Modern-day Warrior.

Doc Messing: Well put.

The Sensational Singh

... Heel Heat Promo ...

 

[The FCW-Original, Sensational Singh, came out to the ring with a look of utter disgust upon his face. Not hiding the fact that he's unhappy with having to be in Pittsburgh tonight versus sunny Puerto Rico, Singh attempts to touch as little of the ringside area as possible... Most likely to show that Pittsburgh, in his mind, is a dirty... discusting... hell-hole. Well, message sent. While in the ring, Singh just looks to stand-out completely... His flashy wrestling robe, and chemically altered hair, is unlike ANYTHING ever seen in a PSW ring. A true contrast to your down-and-dirty, gritty, PSW competitor.]

 

The Sensational Singh: I'm going to make this short and sweet.... That way you will all ACTUALLY be able to understand what I'm saying.

 

[The Crowd boo's]

 

The Sensational Singh: I'm sorry... I don't speak nimrod.

 

[The Crowd gains in their hatred for Singh.]

 

The Sensational Singh: Believe me, I don't want to be here either.... Your booing only reinforces the truth. The Truth that you have NO IDEA what REAL wrestling is all about. Instead, you'd rather watch a collection of overgrown guerrillas bash eachother's skulls in with inadiment objects. [smirks] You're so mindless that you can't sit through a real exchange.... No, You'd rather drown your sorrows in alcohol and cheer on a bunch of nobodies with NO talent.

 

[As you guessed it.... The PSW crowd absolutely HATES Singh. Something that he seems to Cherish.]

 

The Sensational Singh: But I digress... I was forced to come up here to Pittsburgh by my boss, Puerto Rican Power. [Crowd slightly pops] A man who doesn't know the first thing about protecting his true talent. Exhibit A.... He gives me no choice in the matter, instead, tells me that I'm coming up to this sh*t-hole.... To take part in a talent trade. [shakes his head] But the thing is... You all don't deserve to see me. [Crowd boo's] You don't even deserve to see someone like Bryan Holmes compete. No... No... But unlike Holmes, I'm not ACTUALLY under contract with PSW... Thank God... So, to be honest, I'm just not going to work tonight. Power may have something to say about the matter when I make my way back to Puerto Rico but, again, to be honest.... I don't really care. [smirks] I'm a gift... A gift that is too precious for a sh*t-hole like this place.

 

[The crowd is at an all time point of hatred for Singh.... Making it obvious with their negative response. However, that response would quickly turn cowards absolute love as Frankie Future makes a surprising entrance into the "Ministry" ringside area. With his theme music blaring in the background, Future climbs into the ring... And quickly grabs a mic of his own.]

 

Frankie Future: You know.... It's good to see that here, in Pittsburgh, even a Tranny can get a little work.

 

[The crowd laughs as Singh looks pissed.]

 

Frankie Future: No wait, I'm sorry. You can't even pass for a Tranny because in that case you would have to have some sense of male genitalia under that dress of yours.

 

[singh becomes livid over Future's last statement... Stomping his feet as the crowd begins to chant... "Singh is a B*tch" over and over again.]

 

The Sensational Singh: How dare you! Do you know who you're speaking to?

 

Frankie Future: I do believe we just covered that... [Laughs]... Are you deaf too? Jesus, you must be one hell of a street walker if you are having hearing problems at this age. Too many.... sticks.... In your ears?

 

The Sensational Singh: Listen here, bub!

 

Frankie Future: No... You listen here. [Crowd pops as Frankie gets a little forceful] You can't just walk into this company... Into this city... Hell, into this state... And expect that you're "pretty boy" persona is going to win you over any respect. To me, in this area, You've done nothing. Sure, you may have some sense of success down in Puerto Rico... But then again, Who doesn't? [sly smirk] This is Pittsburgh Steel Wrestling... And these fans... No more about Pro Wrestling than you'll ever be able to comprehend. You see, up here... We aren't about talking... We aren't about b*tching and moaning about whether or not we want to work an event or not.... Nah.... Up here.... We're more about.... Well.... A good ole' ass kickin'.

 

[With that, Frankie Future lands a hard right shot to the jaw of the unsuspecting Singh. The roof feels like it's about to explode as the PSW crowd is heavily behind their newfound hero. All of this.. Leading into Singh's One Night Only match-up against... PSW's... Frankie Future.]

 

Grade: D

 

Doc Messing: KICK HIS ASS, FRANKIE!!

Remmington Remus: It looks as if Frankie Future is going to carry the banner of Pittsburgh Steel Wrestling on his back as he takes on FCW's own, The Sensational Signh. It should be one hell of a match!

Doc Messing: A match? [Laughs] Hell no... This is going to be exactly as Frankie put.... "A good ole' ass kickin'".

 

http://i880.photobucket.com/albums/ac8/TonyZobeck/Show%20Minis/HonestFrank.jpghttp://i880.photobucket.com/albums/ac8/TonyZobeck/Show%20Minis/vs.jpghttp://i880.photobucket.com/albums/ac8/TonyZobeck/Show%20Minis/KashmirSingh_alt1.jpg

Frankie Future vs. The Sensational Singh

[singh competes in a PSW ring for One Night Only]

 

It was easy to see that The Sensational Singh was one of THE most hated men in "The Ministry" tonight... Only seconds removed from verbally insulting his place of employment for One Night Only. With this being said, Frankie Future came across like the ultimate hero... The embattled soul fighting with the weight of his beloved company on his back. In a way, standing up for all that is Pittsburgh Steel Wrestling in the process.

 

Singh, toying with the crowd at every turn, was often seen gloating following each and every successful maneuver. A suplex? An arrogant celebration follows.... A top rope missile drop kick? An overly dramatic "self-applause" quickly develops.

 

Needless to say, the atmosphere within the "Ministry" was starting to build into a frenzied tone.

 

With that in mind, as Frankie Future began to make a comeback... The extremely vocal PSW fanbase was firmly in his corner. A chant of "F*ck-Yea Frankie" began to resonate within the concrete walls.

 

In the end, Frankie made a major comeback... Catching a leaping Singh off the top rope with a Frank-N-Hurter (Stunner). Upon impact, Singh is seen catapulting himself 5 feet into the air before slamming back to the canvas below.

 

Motionless...

 

Frankie Future picks up a standard three count from R.M. Stones as the hungry PSW crowd watches on.

 

Frankie Future defeats The Sensational Singh in 11:47 via a "Frank-N-Hurter".

Grade: D

 

Doc Messing: F**********CCCKKK YEEAAA!!!

Remmington Remus: He came.... He insulted.... He left with a broken jaw.

Doc Messing: Suits him right... Those running the show down in Puerto Rico may end up thanking us for silencing this little sh*t.

Remmington Remus: That kind of mentality, for Singh, may work where he's from... but... Here in Pittsburgh.... Talk like that could get you killed.

Doc Messing: All I have to say is... Thank GOD for Frankie Future.

Remmington Remus: A religious man, Doc?

Doc Messing: [Laughs] I'll plead the 5th on that one...

"The Dirty White Boys" and Mitch Naess

... Talking about the Main Event ...

 

[We cut backstage to see the PSW Tag Champions, "The Dirty White Boys", walking into Mitch Naess's make shift office in the depths of the "Ministry". The overly cracked walls, silhouettes of where cross's use to hang, and an overall "church-like stench" ultimately shows exactly how small of an operation PSW is. Mitch, on seeing the arrival of the most dominate tag team in PSW history, quickly rises to his feet... greeting both Lead Belly and Grease Hogg with a firm handshake.]

 

Lead Belly: What tha' hell is this about you being a f*cking referee tonight? You 'aint pullin' any sh*t out there, are ya?

 

Mitch Naess: Oh god no, Lead. God no. [shaking his head] I know how important this match is to the future of PSW.... The crafty technician versus the bar-room brawling biker. [smirks] I wanted to be front and center for the action.... Making sure that nothing goes wrong.

 

Lead Belly: Right. [stairs down Naess] You sure about that?

 

Mitch Naess: Yes, I'm sure. Honestly, Lead... You don't have anything to worry about. I'm going to call tonight's Main Event straight.... No bias. I'm just as excited as the fans here tonight as to who could walk away with the Championship. Truthfully... I'm not pulling fast moves on you or Bryan.

 

Lead Belly: I take a man on his word... So, F*ck.... I trust you.

 

[Lead Belly handshakes Mitch once again... However, this time, he pulls him forcibly inward... Only inches from his face.]

 

Lead Belly: If you're lyin'.... I'm going to rip your f*cking head off.

 

[With that, The PSW Tag Champions... "The Dirty White Boys" storm out of Mitch's office.... Meanwhile, Mitch adjusts his tie and quickly sits back down at his desk. Pulling a glass out from underneath his desk... Slamming it down... And then also pulling out a bottle of jack. It's going to be a LONG night.]

 

Grade: D+

 

Doc Messing: Sometimes it's better to drink away for problems... [Laughs]

Remmington Remus: In this case, I definitely agree with you. [Laughs]

Teddy Powell + The Grand Kanishoki

... Authority Figure? ...

 

[Only seconds after watching "The Dirty White Boys" speak with Mitch Naess... We now see Teddy Powell walking down a small narrow hallway leading into the basement level of the "Ministry". Powell, anxiously walking a few steps ahead from the massive Kanishoki, begins to verbally harass everyone who walks past him in the hallway... From PSW officials to un-named backstage managers.]

 

Teddy Powell: Did you get that report for me?

 

[The first person looks back at him like he's crazy.]

 

Teddy Powell: I want the figures for tonight's event on my desk...

 

[The second official stops for a second... Shakes his head in confusion.]

 

Teddy Powell: Who are you? When did I hire you?

 

[Teddy stops for a second... Standing in front of an un-named middle aged man who looks overly confused as to what is going on.]

 

Un-named Man: Uh... What?!

 

Teddy Powell: Don't "uh.. what"... Me! You're FIRED! GO ON!! GET OUT OF HERE!

 

[The un-named worker looks absolutely confused as to what's going on.. However, slowly moves out of the way as Powell motions for Kanishoki to "step in". From there, the awkward combo of Teddy Powell and Kanishoki make their way into the locker room area.]

 

Grade: D

 

Doc Messing: What the F*CK was that all about?

Remmington Remus: To be honest... I have no clue.

Doc Messing: Did it not just look like Teddy Powell was pretending to be the owner... to be Mitch?

Remmington Remus: I can see that. Hmm... But why?

Doc Messing: Who knows.... That little rat bastard always has something up his sleeve.

Teddy Powell © vs. Harry Allen vs. Mr. Morgan

[PSW National Championship Match]

 

The crafty, often dubious, self-centered champion has officially seeped to a new low... Pretending to be the owner of PSW in which to keep the Japanese speaking monster, The Grand Kanishoki, at his side. In a way, who could fault Powell? The jaded indy veteran has seen partners (Sammy Bach and Steven Parker) come and go with no real window of his own. In a sense, the PSW National Championship is all that he has to his name... the only piece of relevancy he has left. So, who wouldn't continue to cheat their way to the top? Especially when your newest tool of domination comes in the form of a 400+ pound behemoth.

 

Powell, knowing that he can't really keep up with either Morgan or Allen, played a "cat and mouse" game through out most of the match... Using well timed ring exits to kill the momentum of his opponents. At one point, Mr. Morgan was on the verge of executing a belly to back suplex when Powell was able to successfully block the attempt... Then... Quickly diving through the middle rope, and to the outside, in which to stand along side his "Insurance Policy", The Grand Kanishoki.

 

The "cat and mouse" approach was quite successful... Well... Until the match came to a close...

 

Harry Allen found himself in the driver's seat... In full control of the action ahead of him. In a shocking move, Allen drop kicked Mr. Morgan off the top rope (sending Morgan crashing to the floor below) in which to turn the match into a one-on-one affair. Knowing that his time was limited, Allen was able to bum-rush the National Champion... Flooring him with a quick brainbuster DDT in the middle of the ring. With the crowd firmly in his corner, as Allen is considered to be our #1 franchise player supposedly, Harry executes his signature top rope flipping leg drop. The impact, violently jolts Powell's body as all signs are pointing toward a new champion.

 

1....

 

2...

 

 

NO!

 

The Grand Kanishoki has climbed into the ring... Pulling Harry off of Teddy in one epic throw.

 

Harry, literally only half a second away from winning the PSW National Championship, was now attempting to attack the monstrous Kanishoki... A valiant effort but a stupid one at that. Allen stood no test for Kan as the Super Heavyweight all but destroys his recent foe with a ring rattling spinebuster of his own. Morgan, now back on his feet, tries to interfere on the action... However, Powell is waiting for him... Knocking him off of the apron, and crashing back to the concrete floor, with his signature "Motion Censor". A move that would shortly strike yet again as Kan lifts Allen off of the mat... Shoving him in Powell's direction....

 

BAM!

 

"Motion Censor" from Powell... Which, ultimately, lands a standard three count from R.M. Stones in favor of the... STILL... PSW National Champion.

 

Teddy Powell retains the PSW National Championship by defeating Harry Allen and Mr. Morgan in 14:35 via a "Motion Censor" on Harry Allen.

Grade: D

 

Doc Messing: F*ck you... Powell. It's as easy as that... F*ck you.

Remmington Remus: I'm guessing this has been a theme for quite some time...

Doc Messing: Every month, every God damn month... Teddy Powell finds a new way to cheat his way to the top. If this would have been a "fair fight" then Harry Allen would be the NEW PSW National Champion...

Remmington Remus: My question is... I wonder how long Powell can keep up this charade that he's the Owner of PSW? Sooner or later Kanishoki has to find out the truth...

Doc Messing: Believe me... I'm trying to think of anyone I know that can speak Japanese. I want this punk down and out... Once and for all.

Remmington Remus: Well, I guess Teddy Powell lives to fight another day... Still PSW National Champion. But... for how long?

KILLER Colossus w/ John Greed vs. Madman Boone

 

The ringside area wasn't enough to keep this hellacious war in check. Within the first few minutes, both competitors had spilled out of the ring and were traveling backstage with fists-a-blazing... Neither man really gaining the upper hand, however, both fixated on the notion of driving their opponent to the brink of hell and back.

 

In a way, it was actually quite astounding to see someone stand toe-to-toe with a monster like Colossus. Since his debut with company (early 2008), KILLER has developed a destructive persona... Completely decimating anyone who stands in his path. While his win/loss record wasn't anything amazing in 2008 (3 - 4 since joining PSW), His actions outside of the ring has catapulted the Big Heavyweight into a truly menacing position. So, with Madman Boone actually holding his own against the big man, there was an overtone beginning to take shape.... A feeling that maybe... just maybe... KILLER Colossus had finally met his match.

 

This frustrated KILLER Colossus to no end. You can see his body language becoming increasingly aggressive (more so than normal at least) as both he, and The Madman, continued their descent into the depths of the "Ministry". As the encountered the former church basement, now turned locker room area, KILLER's mentality started to shift ever so drastically toward that of physical anarchy. It's almost as if his mind finally "snapped"... Knowing that we were now 5 minutes into the match and Madman Boone was actually slightly in control of the situation (something KILLER was not use to what so ever).

 

That's when it happened...

 

John Greed was attempting to bark orders in the direction of KILLER Colossus (as he walked a good 5 feet behind the action) when all of a sudden Colossus shockingly grabbed Greed by the throat. In one swift move, KILLER then threw John Greed through a stainglass window that sat just a few inches from where the action was taking place. The glass shattered, John's body disappeared as, luckily for john... The window was ground level. With that being said, Colossus let out a animalistic roar following the throw... A moment that would live on in PSW history.... The very moment that KILLER Colossus went rogue.

 

The action would later spill out into the parking lot area as both men continued their assault (neither really gaining full control of the situation). All looked to be going well for Madman, however, until KILLER Colossus found a chain-link positioned next to the "Ministry" wall. With a hill only a few feet away (another parking lot about 10 feet below), KILLER wrapped the chainlink around a staggering Boone's throat.... Throwing him over the side of the hill and literally hanging him.... Forcing him toward death. Madman attempted to free himself... Flinging his body every which way... however, KILLER's grip was far to strong. That was until Madman used all of his weight to pull downward (a move that would have almost killed him if it didn't work)... Forcing KILLER to lose his grip and scarily dropping Madman boone 10 feet onto a parked car below.

 

The camera watches on as KILLER walks around the hill.... Going downward... Focused on finishing Madman Boone off for good. however, when he comes to the place where Boone dropped... There's no sight of him. Colossus, once again letting out a loud roar, didn't see his attacker coming as Boone all of a sudden appears out of nowhere... Holding a tire iron in his hand... Swinging like crazy.

 

BAM...

 

BAM...

 

BAM...

 

Straight to the skull of KILLER Colossus.

 

BAM...

 

Colossus is down on one knee now.

 

BAM..

 

BAM..

 

KILLER Colossus, following 6 tire iron shots to the head, was now on his back... Heavily breathing as he lay ontop shards of broken glass (from one of the windows on the car that Boone fell upon). Madman slowly walked over to his victim... Dropping the Tire iron as he drops to both of his knees to pin Colossus. However, despite the carnage bestowed upon KILLER... He snapped back into focus... Grabbing Madman by his throat (still on his back). The camera watches on as The Madman desperately searches for the tire iron behind him.. Unable to turn his head.

 

Then he found it..

 

BAM..

 

BAM..

 

BAM...

 

KILLER Colossus was motionless. Madman Boone had bludgeoned him within seconds of death. Knowing that it may only be seconds before KILLER's back, and focused, Madman quickly went for the pin... Collapsing on top of the much larger Colossus and picking up a standard three count from R.M. Stones... Who stands a good 10 feet away... Terrified of getting caught in the action.

 

Madman Boone defeats KILLER Colossus in 12:18 via a Tire Iron Strike.

Grade: D

 

Doc Messing: HOLY...... SH*T.

Remmington Remus: I can't believe my eyes.... The Madman had literally beaten KILLER Colossus unconscious with a tire iron... and yet.... He had come back too.

Doc Messing: For only a second though... Did you see those final shots from Boone? [Laughs] That was F*cking insane.

Remmington Remus: That has to be THE most violent match I've ever seen...

Doc Messing: Get use to it around here.... [Laughs] It's a common occurrence.

Bryan Holmes + "The Ring Generals" & Nicole Kiss and Mitch Naess

... "Talking Sense into Mitch"...

 

[We cut backstage, once again, to see PSW Champion, Bryan Holmes, standing before Mitch Naess in his make shift office located in the depths of "The Ministry". The dimly lit room makes for an eery atmosphere as Holmes, along with his new allies in Marv Slater, Dean Waldorf, and Nicole Kiss, makes his case for why Mitch should officiate in his favor tonight.]

 

Mitch Naess: Just like I told Lead Belly.... I'm not playing any favorites tonight in the Main Event. To be honest, Bryan, I'm going to call it right down the middle... I want to make sure that the PSW Championship doesn't lose any sense of prestige. It's the "Crown Jewel" of this company... Something to be cherished. So, with that being said, don't expect me to "call it in your favor" tonight... I know that's why you're here... You and your goons.

 

Bryan Holmes: Mitch.. Mitch... Mitch... Don't you understand? I, also, believe that this title [slaps the title belt over his shoulder] should be held with the utmost respect, honor, and tradition... And you see.... That's why I've come to talk to you. [stairs down Mitch for a second] Do you honestly think that Lead Belly can carry your company? Think about this... Mitch. Do you really want someone like Lead Belly being the face of your product? [smirks] All that honor, respect, tradition crap will fall straight out of the window... I promise you that. No one will respect PSW with a beer chugging, womanizing, back-home fool like Lead Belly as the Champ. Believe me.... Mitch... No one.

 

[Mitch looks away, as if he's annoyed by what Bryan is spouting off about.]

 

Bryan Holmes: At the end of the day, Mitch. You don't have to like me. [smirks] You don't need to stand at my feet and praise the ground I walk on. No. BUT... If you want your little company to continue to thrive... You'll see to it that tonight's main event ends in one scenario.... Me walking away with the strap.

 

[bryan walks past Mitch... Nudging him with his shoulder, almost taking him square off of his feet in the process. Meanwhile, the new foursome makes their way out of Mitch's office... However, not before Dean is seen toying with the Owner... Laughing in his face... Overly projecting his confidence in the act of defiance.]

 

Grade: D+

 

Remmington Remus: It looks like the boss is in for a long night...

Doc Messing: Knowing Mitch... He'd rather be sitting where you're at right now instead of being thrown into the middle of this madness.

Remmington Remus: Then why did he decide to step into the ring as a special guest referee tonight?

Doc Messing: For one thing... and one thing only... To make sure that the PSW Championship is competed for in a fair manor. When making this match, Lead Belly and Holmes, Mitch knew that the event would turn into a powder keg rather quickly. So, instead of leaving R.M. Stones with the overwhelming duty... He felt it was his duty to monitor the situation.

Remmington Remus: Is he crazy?

Doc Messing: Yes.... yes he is.

Bryan Holmes © vs. Lead Belly

[PSW Championship Match]

[special Guest Referee: PSW Owner, Mitch Naess]

 

Tonight's main event carried a tone of an ancient roman battle. The Ministry walls, much like the Roman Coliseum, encompassed a spirited crowd... each and every one of them giddy over the possibility of a deadly altercation. Meanwhile, the warriors stood before the masses... Determined to stay alive.... to survive. Even with both sides knowing that they had back-up (Bryan Holmes - "The Ring Generals. Lead Belly - Grease Hogg) it ultimately felt like both Holmes and Belly were all alone... Forced to violently compete for their own well being. Needless to say, there was a greater sense of urgency filling within the Ministry walls... Who could not only walk away with the PSW Strap but also... Who could withstand the career-shifting beating that both men were about to endure?

 

The action started off in a blaze of glory as Bryan Holmes met Lead Belly in the middle of the ring. Mitch Naess watched on from a nearby turnbuckle corner, an anxious demeanor resonating forth, as Bryan Holmes begins to talk trash to the much larger Belly.... An act that only pushes Holmes's opponent to a brief stint of laughter. However, that laughter didn't last long as the PSW Champion quickly takes control with a quick stomp to Belly's right shin. The move, catching Belly off guard, would open up the beginning of the match in Holmes's favor as the "Silent Warrior" made quick work of the PSW Tag Champion.

 

That was until Lead Belly finally gained his composure.... Catching Bryan Holmes coming off the ropes with a closeline that would completely flip the PSW Champion in the process. The impact made such a loud thud that "The Ring Generals" were seen attempting to jump into the ring... however, holding themselves back when Grease Hogg continued to eye them from on far. The match had officially begun.... Violence ready to ensue.

 

Mitch Naess stayed out of the way through out most of the match... Timidly watching from the corner of the ring as both Holmes and Lead Belly went at it tooth-and-nail. The only time he ever really reacted was when there was a pin count.... The most dramatic one being very early on as Lead Belly executed a running powerslam onto a steel chair in the middle of the ring. Mitch, jumping in the air upon impact, quickly bolted to the center of the ring to count... As if this was his shinning moment!

 

1...

 

2..

 

Marv Slater pulled Mitch Naess out of the ring.

 

This sparked a brutal 2 on 1 brawl outside of the ring now as Grease Hogg ran across the ring... Taking on both "Ring Generals" at one time with a whole slew of weapons from around the ringside area.

 

The commotion outside of the ring wouldn't come close to what was about to transpire within the ropes, however, as Lead Belly set up the PSW Champion for a powerbomb. Kicking a steel chair between his legs... It looked as if Lead Belly was about to slam Holmes down onto the steel chair below... Almost certainly giving him the win. However, just as Lead Belly picked up the grizzled veteran.... Holmes was able to escape over the top of Belly's head/shoulders.... Rolling over him and ultimately pulling him down to the canvas with an awkward school-boy-roll-up.

 

What would normally be seen as a standard 2 count pinfall attempt followed by an easy kick out... Shockingly did so much more...

 

1..

2..

3..

 

In, what can only be described as, the fastest pin-count known to man... Mitch Naess quickly slams his hand down to the canvas three times.... Giving the controversial victory to PSW Champion, Bryan Holmes.

 

Everyone looks to be in a state of shock.... Lead Belly, sitting on the canvas now, looks up at Mitch Naess with a gaze of utter confusion as, even, Mitch Naess doesn't look happy about the situation. In most cases, An outcome like this would unveil the referee as being in "cohoots".... Celebrating with the man he just cheated for... however, in this case, Mitch Naess quickly makes his way out of the "Ministry" as the fans still mull over what had just happened.

 

Trash is thrown.... Trash Cans are thrown into the ring....

 

And overall chant of... "We want our money back" fills the home of the PSW...

 

"Battle Line" comes to a close with one of THE most shocking, confusing, and all-around controversial moments in Pittsburgh wrestling history.

 

Bryan Holmes defeats Lead Belly in 14:42 via a school-boy-roll-up and a fast count from PSW Owner, Mitch Naess.

Grade: C

 

Doc Messing: What.... the.... Hell?

Remmington Remus: Uh...

Doc Messing: What the F*ck was that all about? Mitch.... Mitch just screwed Lead Belly out of the PSW Championship!

Remmington Remus: But why?!

Doc Messing: I have no f*cking clue what so ever...

Remmington Remus: wow....

I'm very impressed by the grade you got out Russell/Callum considering Russell hasn't been very impresive in that departement lately.

And now, we're about to hate Mitch out and in the ring.

I'm very impressed by the grade you got out Russell/Callum considering Russell hasn't been very impresive in that departement lately.

 

Exactly. However, as you'll see in the next coming events, It's not an all-out hatred from the get go. There's more confusion around the situation than anything else.

 

I was thrown back as well with the Russell/Cullum grade. In most cases that's what Russell pulls away with against more established stars. With that being said, it says more about Cullum, to me, than Russell I guess. Maybe the youngster does really have a place on the main show!

[A Simple 1..2..3 turns controversial]

 

NEWS: "The Count"

3rd Week of January 2009

 

There are certain moments in history where you can instantly conjure up where you were, what you were doing, and how said moment impacted your life. While this instance typically takes place during a situation of greater importance to your life.... Thus can also transpire within the World of Pro Wrestling... These are a few scenarios that come to mind...

 

... Sam Strong winning the HGC Championship for the 1st time ...

... The closure of DaVE ...

... Runaway Train's debut assault on Christian Faith ...

 

With that being said, such a moment took place last night in Pittsburgh as the PSW Championship was up for grabs between the current champion and fearless international icon, Bryan Holmes, defended against the beer chuggin', lady-lovin', bar-room brawling biker, Lead Belly.

 

In what will forever be remembered as "The Count"... Mitch Naess, the owner of PSW, was seen administering a fast three count in favor of the current PSW Champion. The shocking nature of such an event comes from two glaring realities:

 

1) The ultimate pinfall was a simple school-boy-roll-up that Lead Belly would have kicked out of if it was a normal 3 count.

2) Mitch Naess seemed unhappy with his own decision of a fast three count.

 

The second scenario seems as confusing as ever as the proud PSW owner, Mitch Naess, was noted to be extremely unhappy with the outcome of the match.

 

But... How can you be unhappy if you're the one who cheated in the first place?

 

This is something we've been wrestling with here at PSW.com since the event took place. After reaching out to Mitch for a comment, The PSW owner returned a text message stating... "It was something that needed to be done". What that means? Only he knows.

 

We couldn't press him for more comments, however, as Mitch stormed out of the "Ministry" shortly after the controversial ending of the Main Event. Since then we've received little to no word from the PSW creator....

 

More to come on this confusing matter as the weeks unfold.

Like the Bryan Holmes/ The Ring Generals alliance it makes sense and even though Bryan does not need them I think it is a great match.</p><p> </p><p>
