UWA: Tri State Gets Crowded

BHK1978 · October 13, 2009

And bhk, please tell NYCW to sign a working agreement with me! They're the only fed I've approached that won't accept any sort of deal!

Ah Stomper is a jerk he won't listen to me.

Wrestling Attack New Jersey - Prelude

“What the hell is this?” Surge asks in his ratty makeshift office in the Weston Gymnasium as he opens a box of match programs. “WTF is ‘UWA Winter Bash?’ That sounds like a half-price sale at a ski shop! I thought the name of this card was ‘Wrestling Attack New Jersey?’ Anyone care to explain?”

“No clue,” answers Dewey Libertine, the only other person in the room. “Maybe O’Malley or Kendall knows something?”

“Well,” an irritated Surge responds, “where are they?”

“They’re looking after the locker rooms right now,” Libertine reports, “after what happened with Gargantuan and Thomas Morgan last week, we don’t want a repeat performance.

“Wait,” Surge remembers, “didn’t I ask you to take care of this?”

“You did,” Dewey answers, “but you also asked me to put together a shortlist of possible replacements for Alan Gray too so I asked Dunc to take care of it. So maybe…”

“Did I hear someone say my name?” Alan Gray says, smiling as he pops his hatted head into the tiny office. “I was just walking by and heard my name. Need anything? Are you guys as excited as I am for the second ever UWA event? I know I might have been a little rusty last week but I really think I was getting the hang of things towards the end of the night. It was just… things were moving so quickly and I…”

“Alan,” Dewey scolds, “get a hold of yourself! We were just going through the list to divvy up the matches so who know who's reffing what. No biggie. I’m sure you’ll do a fine job.”

“Great,” a relieved Gray responds, “see you out there!”

Surge watches Gray walk away and turns his attention to Dewey who drops his head.

“It’s a tough business kid,” Libertines says before Surge has a chance to say anything, “sometimes you have to do what you have to do.”

“‘You have to do what you have to do?’” Surge repeats, “Where’d you learn that? Wrestling cliché school? Now I’m going to look like the bad guy here, you know,” Surge says.

“Hey, hey,” Libertine says, a little surprised by Surge’s response, “nobody ordered you to start your own wrestling federation. You wanted to be the boss, so you’re going to have to make some decisions that aren’t going to please everybody all of the time. If Gray was unnoticeable, I’d say keep him. But he’s not. Fans don’t like him and he’s dragging down matches. I tell you what, you dump him and you’ll have some grateful workers backstage that the damn ref isn't getting in the way while they're wrestling.”

“I suppose so… it’s still early days though I hate to be hasty…” Surge says. “Hey give me a minute please.”

“Sure,” Libertine answers as he exits the office.

Outside the office door Duncan Kendall approaches Dewey Libertine.

“How’d it go?” Big Dunc asks.

“I think he’s a little freaked out,” Dewey answers. “Listen, I don’t know if we should really mess with him he seems to have his heart in the right place. And, nobody got stiffed after that first show. When was the last time you were on a card where you can say that happened?”

“I understand what you’re saying,” Kendall responds, “and the economy, blah, blah, blah, But, we’re not ‘messing’ with him, we’re just making sure this greenhorn knows his place. That is probably THE most important lesson in the entire wrestling business, and this is just some rich kid…”

“Quiet down,” Libertine hisses with a frustrated school teacher’s scorn, “listen, he might just be some rich kid but he’s not a rich kid trying to rip anybody off which is was what I thought we were attempting to find out. And, he actually looked pretty good out there last month I’m sure you noticed. You keeping this crap up now goes beyond anything that we’ve spoken about…”

“What’s happening?” interrupts Curt O’Malley. “Everyone’s pretty under control in my locker room, how about you Dunc?”

“Yeah,” Dunc says uncomfortably as he starts walking away, “looked good I should probably get back to give a final check. Ring’s good checked that earlier.”

“Okay then,” Libertine says, “looks like we’re about ready.”

UWA Winter Bash

UWA WINTER BASH

Seated on steel chairs at an old folding table, with no monitors in front of them and only one laptop computer with a webcam perched atop, are UWA announcers Remmington Remus and Larry Rush.

http://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r203/gratefulcowboy/uwa/RemmingtonRemus.jpghttp://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r203/gratefulcowboy/uwa/RandomMale_altmic.jpg

Remmington: A fine welcome to all of you out there, I'm Remmington Remus here with Larry Rush at the Weston Gymnasium in beautiful New Jersey, USA tonight to fill your underground wrestling jones! This is New Jersey! This is the UWA! It’s time for UWA Winter Bash!

Larry: So, is that like your trademark opening or what? Because it’s pretty weak Remboy.

Remmington: Regardless, we’ve got big stars…

Larry: [Coughs]

Remmington: …and we’ve got big action! But before we get to that let’s catch you up on what happened prior to the show.

The two newly installed flatscreen monitors in the gym show Playboy Jake Sawyer telling Dusty Bin about his plans for the UWA. He tells Bin that maybe he should re-invent himself and join up with the supergroup that he’s putting together. Bin says he sees no evidence of a supergroup yet and Sawyer walks out of the room, telling Bin that he’ll eventually reconsider. E

The image cuts abruptly to Dusty Bin standing in the ring looking intense. Fresh off his humiliating loss to Ace Youngblood at Garden State Blowout ’08, Bin takes out his frustrations on “Parental Abuse” Alan Parent, bossing him about the ring before catching Parent with repeated shoulder rams in the corner. Parent flopped to the middle of the ring where Bin picked him up for the Dustbuster (sustained brainbuster) and pinned him for the victory. F+

No Limit made it two wins in a row in the UWA tag division with a quick victory over Black Magic. It was Daredevil Aero getting the pin on Evil Spirit after what looked like some sort of botched maneuver which they tried to sell as an old school “rocket launcher.” Aero in particular didn’t seem at his best and Alan Gray heard it from the fans again in yet another bad job by the 25-year old ref. F+

Remmington: Another amazing victory for No Limit! It seems that they’re on a fast track to winning the UWA World Tag Team Championship!

Larry: Are you kidding me? Dusty Bin probably got the only victory he’s ever going to see in his whole career! That’s the real story here! Stop the freakin’ presses, I’m Tweeting this!

Remmington: What do you make of Jake Sawyer offering his services to yet another wrestler, this time Dusty Bin?

Larry: I don’t really know what to make of it. Sounds like maybe Sawyer had one too many highballs before the card, who knows.

“The Slick Pimp Daddy” Ernie Turner & Amber Allen
http://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r203/gratefulcowboy/uwa/ErnieTurner.jpghttp://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r203/gratefulcowboy/uwa/AmberAllen.jpg
Ernie Turner comes down to the ring and tells the good people of New Jersey that he’s about to go into business. He whistles, and Amber Allen appears from the locker room to a few catcalls from the 55 fans in attendance. Turner looks her over, asks Amber to tell everyone her name, and then tells her that she'll do for now. She seems a little bewildered by it all and defers to Ernie while he gets a little pop from the crowd. E+

Brady Prince vs. Warren Technique

http://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r203/gratefulcowboy/uwa/BradyPrince_alt.jpgVS.http://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r203/gratefulcowboy/uwa/WarrenTechnique.jpg

-This was potentially a huge match for Technique which would have made him a frontrunner in the developing Garden State title scene. But it was Brady Prince getting his second pinfall on Technique in as many months after a flying knee drop from the second turnbuckle. Prince was a little out of sorts during the match, though, and it showed in his overall performance. E+

Larry: Brady Prince got the win but he wasn’t getting a ton of support from the crowd Rem.

Remmington: Not the best we’ve seen from Brady Prince, but he keeps his undefeated streak going here in the UWA! Tag action up next!

Ding! Ding!

First Class vs. The Rebels

http://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r203/gratefulcowboy/uwa/RoderickRemus.jpghttp://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r203/gratefulcowboy/uwa/StanManna.jpgVS.http://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r203/gratefulcowboy/uwa/AirAttackWeasel.jpghttp://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r203/gratefulcowboy/uwa/SuperSonic_alt1.jpg

-A fast-paced tag match with lots of tags for First Class ended in a wild finish where Air Attack Weasel attacked his partner Super Sonic after he felt that Sonic had left him on the ring apron for too long. When Sonic finally tried to tag Weasel in, Weasel refused the tag, then blasted Sonic in the face with a big right hand which allowed Roderick Remus to pin Sonic easily. Weasel continued to verbally assault his partner after the loss, but the pair walked to the dressing room together. Unfortunately for them, Alan Gray dragged the match down. The fans' obsession with making fun of his hat distracted them from the match. E-

Larry: Another big win for First Class who I’ve already predicted will be the first ever tag champs here in the UWA. And I have to hand it to your brother; he really looks like he’s been teaming with Stan “The Man” Manna his whole life. That’s how good they are in there.

Remmington: I couldn’t really pay attention myself as the ref got in the way during a couple of off the ropes moves there. That’s just inexperience showing.

Larry: Come on! Everyone loves his hats! Those two guys over there were chanting all about it.

Playboy Jake Sawyer, Grimm Quibble, & Stan “The Man” Manna
http://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r203/gratefulcowboy/uwa/PlayboyJakeSawyer.jpghttp://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r203/gratefulcowboy/uwa/GrimmQuibble.jpghttp://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r203/gratefulcowboy/uwa/StanManna.jpg
The flatscreens come alive again, this time showing Playboy Jake Sawyer finishing up a conversation with Grimm Quibble in a small office. He advises Quibble that he needs a manager so that he can finally get booked on a UWA event. Quibble says he’ll think about it and leaves, and just as Sawyer is leaving he runs into Stan Manna who reports that he’s still thinking things over. E+

Remmington: Man, that Jake Sawyer gets around!

Larry: Ernie Turner should be taking notes!

Dermot O’Logical vs. “Trademark” Thomas Morgan

http://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r203/gratefulcowboy/uwa/DermotOLogical.jpgVS.http://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r203/gratefulcowboy/uwa/ThomasMorgan.jpg

-O’Logical and Morgan didn’t seem to have great chemistry in the ring, and it showed. Morgan attempted several times to take command with wear-down moves but O’Logical slipped away each time, citing his perfectly smooth skin to the crowd as the reason why he was able to wriggle away. O’Logical eventually turned it into a bit of a slugfest before finishing Morgan with his pumphandle slam finisher (and by using the ropes for extra leverage during the pinfall). O’Logical told the crowd that they hadn’t seen anything yet. E

Larry: Dermot O’Logical with another impressive win Rem. Ernie Turner last month. Thomas Morgan today. When does O’Logical get a chance to show what he can do against a guy like Jim Surge or Ace Youngblood?

Remmington: I don’t know Larry. He also cheated there when it certainly looked like he already had the match well in hand. I don’t really get why he felt the need to do something like that. Maybe he’s not fully confident in his abilities to put a competitor like Thomas Morgan away.

Larry: Was that a little burn sauce there from Remmington Remus? I’m slowly gaining a little respect for you, bud.

Gargantuan vs. Burning EXILE

http://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r203/gratefulcowboy/uwa/Gargantuan.jpgVS.http://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r203/gratefulcowboy/uwa/BurningExile.jpg

-Gargantuan tore through Burning EXILE in short order, spoiling EXILE’s UWA debut in about six minutes with The Finisher (second turnbuckle powerbomb). EXILE had absolutely no offense, but still came out of the match with a ton of momentum for being so mysterious. D-

Larry: I know Gargantuan just wrestled, and he’s my boy and all, but that Burning EXILE is just so mysterious, I can’t get over it!

Remmington: Well you better, it’s Main Event time!

Jim Surge vs. Whisky Jack

http://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r203/gratefulcowboy/uwa/JackAvatar.jpgVS.http://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r203/gratefulcowboy/uwa/WhiskyJack.jpg

-In the Main Event of the evening, Jim Surge kicked it to a higher level after an intense back-and-forth brawl started things off. Surge eventually seized control of the match with a swinging neckbreaker, then used a reverse figure four as a wear down hold to set up his double underhook piledriver finisher. It took a few moments for Jack to clear the cobwebs before he finally exited the ring. D+

Remmington: Another incredible victory for Jim Surge here in the UWA! This guy can really take care of business inside a wrestling ring, can’t he Larry?

Larry: Aw jeez, here comes Ace Youngblood to drag things out…

Jim Surge, Ace Youngblood, Gargantuan, & Dermot O’Logical
http://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r203/gratefulcowboy/uwa/JackAvatar.jpghttp://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r203/gratefulcowboy/uwa/AceYoungblood.jpghttp://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r203/gratefulcowboy/uwa/Gargantuan.jpghttp://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r203/gratefulcowboy/uwa/DermotOLogical.jpg
Ace Youngblood comes to the ring to celebrate Jim Surge’s victory with him. After a couple of minutes, they are blindsided by Gargantuan and Dermot O’Logical who rush the ring and quickly overcome them. Gargantuan then hits The Finisher on both Surge and Youngblood, and then O’Logical takes a turn with his pumphandle slam. Gargantuan and O’Logical barely look at one another during the attack, and walk back to the locker rooms separately. E-

Larry: Did not see that one coming! Take that Mr. Cattle Rancher, that’s Jersey style!

Remmington: Have we just witnessed the birth of a new power alliance here in the UWA? Only time will tell and we're out of time for now, so join us next month for more exciting action!

UWA Winter Bash Postmortem Meeting

A tired, unshaved Jim Surge paces the hallway of his Hoboken apartment in dark grey sweatpants and a faded blue Grateful Dead t-shirt. It had been a long, sleepless night for the UWA’s founder as he continued to seethe over the last-minute change in the name of the UWA’s second event, a change that he didn’t authorize.

Surge walks to the kitchen and pours himself a cup of coffee. The warm sunlight pouring into his kitchen betrays the frigid February cold pounding the bundled up commuters as they scurry past his building to the train station or the bus stop. After zoning out for a few moments, Surge is brought back to reality by the ringing of his home telephone.

“Yes?” Surge says in an annoyed tone as he ambles over to the conference table and presses the button for the speaker phone.

“Yeah,” rumbles the raspy voice of Duncan Kendall, “we’ve been waiting here for O’Malley for the last 20 minutes but he hasn’t shown up.”

“Fantastic,” Surge sighs, “he didn’t call you or anything?”

“No,” Big Dunc answers. “I’ve got Dewey here though, Dew, you have any messages from O’Malley?”

There is some mumbling in the background.

“Dewey hasn’t heard anything either,” Kendall reports. “You want to just do this over the phone? I can put you on speaker so Dewey can hear you.”

“Fine,” Surge says, consciously making the effort to come across pleasantly.

There’s some fumbling with Kendall’s cell phone before he finally turns on the speaker option.

“Okay Jimbo,” Dewey begins, “first up, Alan Gray. He played a prank on Gargantuan after the card was over by taking all of Gargantuan’s clothes out of the big man’s locker, and swapping them with Amber Allen’s clothes. Gargantuan freaked out and nearly tried to attack Gray but the other workers were laughing so hard Gargantuan got embarrassed and eventually just left in his wrestling gear!”

“Good grief,” Surge says, “how do I keep missing these incidents?”

“You were a little out of it after that beatdown at the end of the night,” Kendall answers, “this was nothing really.”

“Well maybe it’s nothing to you,” Surge says, “but I’m going to be consistent with the discipline around here….”

“You can’t possibly equate a little prank like this to what Gargantuan did last month to Thomas Morgan,” Libertine says, “that’s just not right.”

“You didn’t let me finish,” Surge answers, “I’m going to be consistent with the discipline around here, at least in appearance. So I’ll call him and give him a little slap on the wrist. It’ll make me feel better to at least be perceived as being fair.”

“A little slap on the wrist?” Libertine questions. “You mean, right before you fire him?”

“He did drag a couple of matches down again,” Big Dunc adds. “He seems to be more of a liability than an asset at this point.”

“Maybe we cut him loose,” Libertine speculates, “he gets up to speed on the independent circuit, and then we can grab him back up.”

“Yeah, well,” says an unconvinced Surge, “I still have to think about it.”

“What about the title scene?” asks Kendall.

“What about it?” Surge answers.

“I know we haven’t really spoken about it before,” starts Kendall, “but maybe it’s time you thought about naming someone as the UWA’s first-ever Commissioner. You can’t walk out there and make the matches yourself!”

“I can’t?” Surge asks in a surprised fashion, “that’s funny, I thought it was my signature on all the checks.”

There is an uncomfortable silence as Surge takes a large gulp of his coffee.

“I think what he means is, it won’t look that convincing,” Libertine interjects, trying for the save. “You’re still in the process of getting over and…”

“I get it,” Surge blurts out abruptly, “but listen, speaking of me signing the checks, why was the name of last night's event changed? This was supposed to be Wrestling Attack New Jersey, not UWA Winter Bash. Duncan, Dewey told me that he delegated this to you.”

“I thought it was dumb to have another name referencing New Jersey, without having the Garden State title on the line,” Kendall replies, taking full responsibility. “Plain and simple.”

“Well that’s fantastic,” Surge says, getting angry again and clenching his jaw. “Listen, and this goes for the both of you, you might think I’m some dumb young kid who doesn’t know anything about the wrestling business, and in some respects you’re right. I still have a lot to learn. But I do know a thing or two about business in general, and you don’t go behind the boss’s back and make company-wide decisions unless you really don’t care about your employment status. This will not fly. I want to be perfectly clear here - you guys are helping *advise me* in the running of this company. And it’s insulting that O’Malley isn’t there with you. I’m going to give him a call too…”

“Jim, Jim,” interrupts Dewey, “listen you’re getting all worked up into a shoot. This was a mistake, I think Duncan knows that, but you’ve got to relax. Everything turned out well in the end kid - hell it was a decent show!”

“Don’t call me kid,” Surge spits back with genuine venom.

“Listen, Jim,” Kendall says, “why don’t we all take the weekend to unwind and we'll come back at this with a fresh attitude on Monday? Dewey and I will get in touch with O’Malley and let him know what’s going on. You should just try to relax. Like Dewey said, people liked the show. Just a little fine tuning here and there and we’ll start making some waves.”

“Yeah,” Surge says, finally exhaling, “fine.”

Surge presses the button on his phone and terminates the call. Dewey and Big Dunc look at each other, with Dewey shaking his head in amazement.

“He’s on the chip,” Kendall says with a smile.

“Big time,” Dewey replies, “hope you know what you’re doing.”

UWA Taking Sides - Prelude

Jim Surge sits at his office desk in the Weston Gymnasium readying himself for the night’s action. He closes his eyes and breathes deeply in an attempt to let all of the stress he had been feeling wash away from his body and mind. But he is interrupted by the sight of Curt O’Malley walking past his door.

“Hey, Curt,” Surge calls, “come in here for a second.”

“Sure boss,” O’Malley replies as he enters the office, “what’s happening?”

“I’ve been meaning to speak with you,” Surge says, “but with switching everything around to run the show earlier this month things have been a little hectic.”

“What’s on your mind?” O’Malley asks.

“I really value your input,” Surge begins, “so I was disappointed that you missed the postmortem meeting for Winter Bash.”

“Wait,” a puzzled O’Malley responds, “what are you talking about? Duncan told me that you cancelled that meeting.”

“WHAT?!” Surge says, taken aback by the revelation. “Are you sure?”

“Yeah,” Curt answers, “why?”

“Interesting,” Surge muses, “well, he said you were 20 minutes late and that he and Dewey hadn’t heard from you.”

“Dewey?!” says a shocked O’Malley.

“Let’s just keep this between us,” Surge says. “I have a couple of surprises ready for Big Duncan Kendall tonight. Tonight I will show these scheming punks who really runs the UWA. After tonight, people will be taking sides.”

Burning EXILE vs. Dusty Bin

Like Dusty Bin has a chance here...

No Limit vs. The Rebels vs. First Class vs. Black Magic (Fatal Fourway)

This is your best team in my opinion.

Ernie Turner vs. Thomas Morgan vs. Warren Technique vs. Whisky Jack

Jim Surge & Ace Youngblood vs. Gargantuan & Dermot O’Logical

This is a tough one but I will go with Jim and Ace.

Burning EXILE vs. Dusty Bin

If EXILE is forced to do the JOB to Dusty Bin, then you may as well just cut your ties with him, because after a loss like that he'd be just about worthless.

No Limit vs. The Rebels vs. First Class vs. Black Magic (Fatal Fourway)

First Class seem to be getting pushed as the leading team of the Tag division.

Ernie Turner vs. Thomas Morgan vs. Warren Technique vs. Whisky Jack

A 'Talker' who can't really wrestle all that well, two guys that can wrestle but are blander than unseasoned Mash Potato and a mediocre southern brawler....you could stick a pin in any of these guys and come up with a viable winner.

Jim Surge & Ace Youngblood vs. Gargantuan & Dermot O’Logical

Youngblood eats the pin, as the top heels in the company continue to look strong.

UWA Taking Sides

UWA TAKING SIDES

There is a bit of an improved opening sequence for UWA Taking Sides. After the obligatory long still on the logo, there are some cuts of action from the first two UWA events displayed on the Weston Gym’s new flatscreen monitors. Eventually there are still shots of No Limit and First Class, which are replaced by images of Jim Surge and Gargantuan, and then a return to the logo.

Seated on steel chairs at an old folding table, with laptop computers in front of each of them, are UWA announcers Remmington Remus and Larry Rush.

http://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r203/gratefulcowboy/uwa/RemmingtonRemus.jpghttp://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r203/gratefulcowboy/uwa/RandomMale_altmic.jpg

Remmington: Welcome all of you underground wrestling fans, I'm Remmington Remus here with Larry Rush at the Weston Gymnasium in beautiful New Jersey, USA tonight to fill your jones! This is New Jersey! This is the UWA! It may only be March, and this may only be our third ever event, but tonight will likely be the biggest night in the fed’s short history… it’s time for UWA Taking Sides!

Larry: You’re right about something for once, Remus. Tonight should prove full of surprises. I’ve heard through the grapevine that the UWA will name its first ever commissioner tonight right here at Taking Sides!

Remmington: That’s absolutely correct. And not only that, we’ve got a monster of a Main Event with Jim Surge and Ace Youngblood matching up against Gargantuan and Dermot O’Logical.

Larry: Well, that should be a great one. Surge got himself involved in this mess by sticking his nose where it didn’t belong back at Garden State Blowout when he felt compelled to come to the rescue of Thomas Morgan after Gargantuan had destroyed him fair and square in the ring.

Remmington: Morgan was defenseless! And besides, that’s no excuse for Gargantuan and O’Logical jumping Surge and Youngblood last month after Surge’s fine victory over Whisky Jack. That’s erratic behavior on the part of Gargantuan to tell you the truth.

Larry: Shocking.

Remmington: Well, we’ve set a new modern-day attendance record tonight with 66 of some of the best fans in the entire world and they’re excited to get to the action. But first, let’s catch you up on what happened prior to the show.

Dusty Bin buried Burning EXILE in two minutes. Bin started the match with a kick to the gut and EXILE collapsed as if he had been shot. Bin pranced around the ring and laughed at the fans before lifting EXILE up for the Dustbuster and a pinfall victory. Playboy Jake Sawyer was in attendance at ringside, apparently taking notes at Bin’s request but not working in a managerial capacity. E-

All eight men were in the ring at once for this Fatal Fourway tag bout and First Class and No Limit put on a show early, especially Fearless Blue who really looked ready for the match. But it would be Remmington Remus and Stan “The Man” Manna making good use of the rules of the contest by concentrating their attack on Black Magic while No Limit was tied up battling The Rebels. The result was Remus pinning Evil Spirit for the win after a double DDT. E

Remmington: What a stunning victory for Dusty Bin over the mysterious one, Burning EXILE!

Larry: I’m not too sure about that Remboy; my well-placed sources tell me that EXILE might be on his way back to Japan to wrestle for GCG. It is interesting that Jake Sawyer was there though, apparently taking notes for Dusty Bin. Although there really wasn’t much to write about; it was over before it began!

Remmington: No doubt! Okay, looks like we’re just moments away from our opening bout and I’m getting word that Jim Surge has arrived and we’re going to cut to him.

Jim Surge Arrives
http://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r203/gratefulcowboy/uwa/JackAvatar.jpg
-The flatscreens inside the Weston show a black tour bus pulling up to the outside of the Gym and slowing to a stop. Jim Surge steps out and walks inside the Weston Gym. A handheld camera follows him as he comes upon an office door with the sign “Commissioner’s Office” hanging on the wall beside it. Surge looks around, and then enters the office. D-

Larry: What was that?! Is Jim Surge the new UWA Commissioner?

Remmington: I’m sure we’re going to find out later tonight, but looks like right now we have Brady Prince in action against a newcomer to the UWA – Primus Allen!

Larry: I’ve heard about this Allen kid. Apparently he’s like a bigger version of Warren Technique.

Brady Prince vs. Primus Allen

http://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r203/gratefulcowboy/uwa/BradyPrince_alt.jpgVS.http://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r203/gratefulcowboy/uwa/PrimusAllen.jpg

-Brady Prince didn’t have an easy time with the huge newcomer, but he did spoil the rookie’s debut with a flying knee drop from the second turnbuckle. Allen looked fairly capable in the ring and came out of the loss with some decent momentum because he did hurt Prince at times. A prolonged sequence in the corner had Allen firmly in control of the match until Prince avoided a corner avalanche and turned the tide. E+

Larry: Not a great result for Primus Allen, but certainly not a bad effort to stand in there toe-to-toe with undefeated Brady Prince.

Remmington: You know Larry, Brady Prince has come out on top in every encounter he’s faced thus far in the UWA. How long will that streak continue? Is he now the favorite to become UWA World Heavyweight Champion?

Larry: I’m sure Gargantuan would have something to say about that. But speaking of titles, here are probably the four main contenders for the UWA Garden State title up next in a Fatal Fourway of their own!

Fatal Fourway: Ernie Turner (w/Amber Allen) vs. Thomas Morgan vs. Warren Technique vs. Whisky Jack

http://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r203/gratefulcowboy/uwa/ErnieTurner.jpgw/http://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r203/gratefulcowboy/uwa/AmberAllen.jpgVS.http://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r203/gratefulcowboy/uwa/ThomasMorgan.jpgVS.http://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r203/gratefulcowboy/uwa/WarrenTechnique.jpgVS.http://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r203/gratefulcowboy/uwa/WhiskyJack.jpg

-Another high energy brawl of a match, not at all suited for Ernie Turner or Thomas Morgan. Warren Technique showed exceptionally well in this match, and formed a quick alliance with Whisky Jack which eventually helped Jack to the win. While Turner had been thrown to the outside, Technique blasted Morgan with a signature face-first suplex and gave the prone Morgan up to Jack who easily pinned him for the victory. E

Larry: Some great impromptu teamwork right there from Whisky Jack and Warren Technique!

Remmington: What can I say? You’re right. Was not expecting that level of cooperation from Warren Technique.

Larry: Well, when you’ve been losing like Warren has you’ll do just about anything not to be the guy that gets pinned again. Know what I mean?

Remmington: Whatever the motivation, it was a good showing for Technique. And now, I think the moment we’ve all been waiting for, the announcement of the UWA’s first commissioner. That should clear up a thing or two about the direction of the fed.

UWA Names Its First Commissioner
http://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r203/gratefulcowboy/uwa/DuncanKendall.jpg
-Duncan Kendall makes his way down to the ring from the locker room area to a smattering of boos. He smiles like a Cheshire cat as he enters the ring and grabs a microphone plugged into a small amplifier.

Kendall: The gym’s PA isn’t working yet…

Chants of “You Suck!” begin immediately.

Kendall: Now, settle down. Settle down, now! You people are lucky to be here on such an historic night in this young federation’s history. Tonight, I shall reveal to you the first ever UWA Commissioner. Ladies and gentlemen, I am proud to announce that the first Commissioner in UWA history is none other than…. Biiiiiiiiiiiig Duuuuu……..

http://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r203/gratefulcowboy/uwa/JackAvatar.jpg

Tom Waits’ odd song Straight to the Top (Vegas) blares through the apparently working house PA system and Jim Surge steps out from the back and joins Kendall in the ring. Kendall looks shocked.

Surge: Duncan, Duncan, Duncan. I’m glad you’re taking initiative here in the UWA, I really am. And better that you try and fail, then try nothing at all. I get that. But as you and all of these good people here are well aware, there’s only one name paying the bills around here. And it sure as hell isn’t Duncan Kendall.

Surge gets a little pop from the record crowd.

Surge: That’s why I thought it would only be fair if we brought in a guy who in my opinion is a little tougher. And a little more extreme. And a LOT more loyal. You’ve done a great job helping with the fed thus far Big Dunc, but your services as an adviser are no longer required. I introduce the UWA’s first ever Commissioner – VIN TANNER!

http://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r203/gratefulcowboy/uwa/VinTanner.jpg

Kendall looks shocked and jumps down out of the ring to the ringside area, leaving his mic and amplifier behind, as Tanner joins Surge in the ring. The crowd loves it!

Commissioner Tanner: Thanks Jim. I’m pleased to be here in the UWA and excited to get right down to business. I’ve been doing some research on the fed of course but now that I’m here in a full-time capacity there will certainly be some changes. I’m also pleased to say that next month’s UWA event is going to be the biggest ever, with all three championship titles on the line for the first time! So if tonight is your first night here, you’ll definitely want to be back next month for UWA Night of Honor! D-

Remmington: Wow! Former DAVE Brass Knuckles and Extreme Champion Vin Tanner is the first ever UWA Commissioner! Shocking development there Larry!

Larry: I thought for sure Duncan Kendall would be the first Commissioner. Jim Surge goes out there and talks about loyalty, and then completely disrespects one of the very guys who helped him form the fed! What a hypocrite!

Remmington: I don’t think I’d go that far. We might not know the whole story.

Larry: This is really going to be interesting, that’s for certain. I’m sure Tanner has an agenda of his own and I have a feeling we’re going to find out what that is over the months to come.

Remmington: Now on to the Main Event! Any one of these four are deserving to be included in title matches next month at Night of Honor, we’ll have to see what Commissioner Tanner thinks!

Jim Surge & Ace Youngblood vs. Gargantuan & Dermot O’Logical

http://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r203/gratefulcowboy/uwa/JackAvatar.jpg&http://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r203/gratefulcowboy/uwa/AceYoungblood.jpgVS.http://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r203/gratefulcowboy/uwa/Gargantuan.jpg&http://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r203/gratefulcowboy/uwa/DermotOLogical.jpg

-Easily one of the best matches in the early history of the federation, Ace Youngblood and Dermot O’Logical started off the bout building up to the inevitable first confrontation between Jim Surge and Gargantuan in a sanctioned match. Gargantuan seemed to be able to handle Surge fairly easily though, and even had him in a prolonged bearhug before Youngblood finally broke it up. O’Logical then took Youngblood out of the ring and started to battle him as Playboy Jake Sawyer ran to the ring with a diamond-tipped cane. With referee Dewey Libertine distracted with O’Logical and Youngblood, Sawyer tried to hit Surge with his cane but Surge dodged and instead Sawyer smashed Gargantuan who fell like a ton of bricks. Surge got the cover for the win as Libertine responded to the commotion in the ring. D-

Remmington: Incredible! Playboy Jake Sawyer cost Gargantuan and Dermot O’Logical that match!

Larry: All I can say is ‘wow.’ If that was Sawyer’s audition to be Gargantuan’s manager I’d say it didn’t go too well.

-Jim Surge and Ace Youngblood celebrate in the ring as the Tom Waits song Straight to the Top (Vegas) plays over the PA. Although it lasts several minutes, it is fairly low key which the fans seem to appreciate. E+

Remmington: That brings us to the end of another exciting UWA show! Probably the most dramatic we’ve had thus far Larry.

Larry: Well that’s not saying too much Remster, but regardless I can’t wait for next month and UWA Night of Honor! We’ve received word that Commissioner Tanner will announce the card tomorrow so be sure to check the website for more information!

http://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r203/gratefulcowboy/uwa/VinTanner_suit.jpg

Commissioner Tanner makes his first journey to apartment 4D in Hoboken, New Jersey, the default “home office” of the Universal Wrestling Alliance. Of course, it also happens to be the residence of the fed’s founder, Jim Surge.

http://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r203/gratefulcowboy/uwa/JackAvatar.jpg

“Thanks for coming over on such short notice,” Surge says as he ushers Tanner into the apartment and over to the conference table. “Need anything? Beverage? Bathroom?”

“No,” Tanner replies, “I’m fine. I just wanted to touch base with you regarding these title matches for Night of Honor. This is a huge night for the fed. You best know what you’re in for.”

“Yeah,” Surge answers as he takes a sheet of paper from Tanner and begins to review it, “thanks. Wait, you have Whisky Jack up for the Garden State title?”

“Of course!” Tanner replies. “He’s coming off a huge win against the entire field! Who else is it going to be there?”

“I guess you’re right,” Surge admits. “Tag match looks solid, and I guess I can’t have any complaints about the Main Event either.”

“Hey man, that’s all you,” says a suddenly nervous-sounding Tanner. “Couple of other surprises too, like the debut of The Detonators!”

Tanner passes a couple of pictures to Surge.

http://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r203/gratefulcowboy/uwa/th83307_Primus_Allen_alt2_122_467lo.jpghttp://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r203/gratefulcowboy/uwa/WarrenTechnique_alt.jpg

“The Detonators, eh?” Surge asks.

“TNT and Dynamite,” Tanner replies. “I knew you’d love them. Sort of a try-out but we introduce them on a big stage in case they can pull it off. Win-win situation. I've also retained an independent marketing company to try their hand at some alternate logos which we could use on some merchandise or advertising or whatever, really. What do you think?”

http://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r203/gratefulcowboy/uwa/uwa2.jpg

http://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r203/gratefulcowboy/uwa/uwa-1.jpg

“Wow,” Surge replies. “I really appreciate your initiative, Vin. I wasn’t really expecting this sort of… ”

“Commitment?” Tanner interjects, “I like to be prepared, is all.”

“No, like I was saying I appreciate that,” Surge answers. “This looks good, let’s run with it.”

UWA Insider: Breaking News

Commissioner Tanner Makes Historic First Move

http://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r203/gratefulcowboy/uwa/VinTanner_suit.jpg

(HOBOKEN, NJ) – New UWA Commissioner Vin Tanner has been living up to his pledge to "get right down to business" and bring some changes to the fledgling professional wrestling promotion. And, after being given the authority by Jim Surge to make contract decisions on his own, he has made the first official move in his new position of power.

http://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r203/gratefulcowboy/uwa/AlanGray.jpg

Alan Gray’s contract has been terminated, with immediate effect. The 25-year old referee has been a focal point of angry fans who say that he "cheapens" the UWA experience with his ineptitude. Gray also has some heat with old school fans (and fellow referee Dewey Libertine) because of his trademark colorful hats which he wears while reffing matches (the old guard thinks the hats are unacceptable on principle). He is routinely in the wrong position at the wrong time, gets in the way of nearly all moves involving the ropes, and, Tanner learned, is also 90% blind in both eyes.

"It's obviously quite disappointing," Gray said, "but these things happen in this business. A new guy comes in and he has some new ideas and wants to bring in some of his own guys. What can you do? Hopefully I'll get some grooming on the Independent circuit and I'm grateful for the brief opportunity I've had here in the UWA."

Libertine, though, seemed to think that the move was overdue:

http://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r203/gratefulcowboy/uwa/DeweyLibertine.jpg

"I've been asking Surge about this really since the moment we signed Alan and I saw him in the ring," Libertine commented on the Wrestling Lamp website. "Alan's a great guy and all, but he's not a good fit for us right now at such a critical point in this young fed's life. When fans come out of matches with nothing but scorn for the referee, you know something's not right."

But Libertine may have to look over his own shoulder, too. Rumors abound that Tanner is looking to hire one, or possibly two more referees, and for a promotion this size having three referees would certainly be overkill. Local referee Chad Brent has been the name most often mentioned as Gray's possible replacement, with no speculation on who else (if anyone) Tanner may have in mind.

http://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r203/gratefulcowboy/uwa/DuncanKendall.jpg

This sudden attention to the refereeing situation follows on the heels of Tanner and Surge meeting with Road Agent Duncan Kendall to make sure Kendall was going to honor the remaining 5 months of his contract since Tanner was named Commissioner in a surprise announcement over Big Dunc at UWA Taking Sides. Tanner and Surge received assurances from Kendall that he was a professional and would continue his Road Agent duties without incident.

Purple Cowboy · October 23, 2009

UWA Night of Honor - Prelude

Jim Surge sits in the tiny teacher’s office in the Weston Gymnasium with the door closed and all of the lights off except for a small desk lamp. Tonight at Night of Honor was one of the biggest nights of his life as his promotion was going to crown its inaugural champions, and he was appearing in the Main Event against the formidable Canadian giant Gargantuan. And while Surge felt an understandable degree of nervous excitement, he didn’t feel as if he had done a great job about getting the word out about the event and it was bothering him.

It was also bothering him that he felt he could no longer trust Duncan Kendall, one of the founding members of this incarnation of the UWA and, until last month, one of his most trusted advisers. It made the young Surge question all of his relationships in the business. He came to the disappointing conclusion that the last three months had been a bit of a sham – Kendall had never trusted him and was endlessly scheming in the background, and maybe the other two (Dewey Libertine and Curt O’Malley) felt the same way. It was a sickening feeling, and waves of nausea passed over Surge.

Dewey Libertine was clearly involved with Kendall’s plotting, as Surge discovered last month when Dewey and Dunc left Curt O’Malley out of an important meeting so that they could try and push through their agenda without him. But Surge’s brains were so scrambled that he was beginning to think the whole thing was all a work, and that O’Malley was in on it too.

Knock! Knock! Knock!

Surge’s depressing meditation is broken by light rapping on the office door.

“Come in,” Surge says wearily, wiping some sweat from his forehead and upper lip.

Curt O’Malley opens the door and when he sees the mostly dark room he begins to back away as if he were going to leave and starts to close the door.

“Oh,” O’Malley says, “I’m sorry Jim, I didn’t know you were resting in here. I’ll leave you alone.”

“Wait, hang on. What’s going on?” Surge asks in a tired tone which causes O’Malley to halt his exit.

“Really, it can wait,” O’Malley replies. “It was just some personal stuff I wanted to run by you.”

“Personal stuff?” questions a suddenly interested Jim Surge.

“I got an offer,” O’Malley admits. “I wanted to let you know in person before you read about it on the internet or some moron texted you or something like that. It’s a PPA deal don’t you know, I’ll still be available to work for you. And I want to work for you. Nothing’s final yet anyway.”

“You’re right,” Surge begins as he drops his head into his hands, “let’s talk about this after the show.”

“No problem,” O’Malley says as he re-starts his exit. “Oh, uh, my locker room is fine and everyone is here and ready. You might want to check with Duncan about his though because he’s not speaking with me for some reason.”

“Yeah, yeah, thanks,” says a distracted Surge as the office door finally closes. The ‘Las Vegas at Night’ calendar hanging on the wall in the office was still on January and for some reason it caught his attention. Surge noticed that the little marking he had made on the calendar four months ago to commemorate UWA Garden State Blowout had been scribbled out by someone.

“Figures,” Surge mutters.

The alarm on his phone started to honk, like the self-destruct warning horn for a villain’s lair in a bad sci-fi movie. It was time.

UWA Night of Honor

UWA NIGHT OF HONOR

The improved opening sequence begins for UWA Night of Honor. After the obligatory long still on the classic outer-space UWA logo, there are cuts of action from the first three UWA events displayed on the Weston Gymnasium’s flatscreen monitors. Eventually there are still shots of Ernie Turner and Whisky Jack, which fade to shots of No Limit and First Class, which are finally replaced by images of Jim Surge and Gargantuan, and then a return to a new logo.

http://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r203/gratefulcowboy/uwa/uwa2.jpg

Seated on steel chairs at an old folding table, with laptop computers in front of each of them, are UWA announcers Remmington Remus and Larry Rush.

http://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r203/gratefulcowboy/uwa/RemmingtonRemus.jpghttp://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r203/gratefulcowboy/uwa/RandomMale_altmic.jpg

Remmington: A fine welcome to all of you loyal UWA fans out there, I'm Remmington Remus here with Larry Rush at the Weston Gymnasium in beautiful New Jersey, USA to fill your underground wrestling jones! This is New Jersey! This is the UWA! And we’re here tonight to crown the first champions in the federation’s history right here at Night of Honor! We’ve got “The Slick Pimp Daddy” Ernie Turner going up against Whisky Jack in a hardcore match for the UWA Garden State title, the acrobatic pairing No Fear against undefeated First Class for the UWA World Tag Team Championship, and in the Main Event, Jim Surge squaring off against Gargantuan for the UWA World Heavyweight title.

Larry: Well, there are some other great matches on the card as well in addition to the title matches Rembot , including Dermot O’Logical who’s going to destroy Ace Youngblood, and the debut of the fantastic new Mexican tag-team The Detonators!

Remmington: There’s actually some question as to the true ethnicity of The Detonators, Larry, so we’ll keep a close eye on them when they’re out there.

Larry: Innocent until proven guilty in my mind Remster. They even have a traveling supporters group straight from Mexico City called Los Bambitos who will be seated at ringside for their match. I say, they are the real deal!

Remmington: We’ll see about that. But before we do, let’s catch you up on what happened prior to the show.

Brady Prince was supposed to face Dusty Bin, but Commissioner Vin Tanner came out to up the ante. Instead Prince faced off against Bin, Grimm Quibble, and “Parental Abuse” Alan Parent in a fourway elimination match. Prince pinned Quibble early with a surprise rollup from behind, while nearly simultaneously Bin hit his Dustbuster on Alan Parent to eliminate him. After exerting so much energy on Parent, Bin looked exhausted and Prince hit him with the kneedrop from the second rope for the victory. E

After the match was over, the flatscreens came alive with the image of Jim Surge backstage in his office engaged in a seemingly steamy conversation with a scantily clad Amber Allen who was seated on the corner of his desk. Their heads were very close together and they laughed a little bit while gazing at each other. Although nothing “happens,” the crowd is really surprised and responds very well to the segment. D

Remmington: My word, what was that all about?!

Larry: Not sure, we couldn’t really hear what they were saying, but maybe this Surge guy isn’t so bad after all. I have to say, Remmo, Ernie Turner’s reputation as a pimp has taken some big hits in the last couple of months. This guy is going to become a laughing stock if he isn’t careful.

Remmington: Well, Turner is up next. But before we get to the match I’d like to welcome new referees Chad Brent and Bret Graveson to the UWA family!

The flatscreens briefly show the pictures of the two new refs:

Remmington: And now onto the first title match in UWA history!

Larry: A hardcore match to boot! This one should play right to Whisky Jack’s strengths.

UWA Garden State Championship Title Match

“Slick Pimp Daddy” Ernie Turner w/ Amber Allen vs. Whisky Jack *Hardcore Match Rules*

http://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r203/gratefulcowboy/uwa/ErnieTurner.jpgw/http://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r203/gratefulcowboy/uwa/AmberAllen.jpgVS.http://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r203/gratefulcowboy/uwa/WhiskyJack.jpg

-Turner came down to the ring looking all business and Amber Allen carried an aluminum baseball bat with her which she gave to the Slick Pimp Daddy before Whisky Jack’s entrance. Jack just rushed the ring from the back and got right down to pounding Turner with big roundhouse lefts and rights, causing Turner to drop his bat in the process which Amber recovered. Turner and Jack seemed to really work well together in the ring, but at the 8 minute mark the battle spilled to the outside where Jack would seize control. Jack put Turner through a folding table, then grabbed the bat away from Amber and blasted Turner with it several times. Jack rolled an unconscious Pimp Daddy back into the ring for the pinfall victory. Whisky Jack becoming the first ever UWA Garden State Champion! E

Larry: I told you this one would be all about Whisky Jack!

Remmington: Amber Allen didn’t seem to be in much of a hurry to help her man! I wonder if her mind was still on her conversation with Jim Surge?

Larry: You never know how that goes, Roy.

Remmington: Okaaay… well, up next we’ve got a tag match with the new masked Mexican pairing of The Detonators, against some more recent signings, The Wrestlers!

Larry: The Wrestlers sound like a joke. Jon Jetson and Rex Reeves, pretty much journeymen guys, I just don’t see how this team, with that name, can do anything here in the UWA. Or anywhere for that matter.

The Wrestlers vs. The Detonators

http://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r203/gratefulcowboy/uwa/JonJetson.jpghttp://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r203/gratefulcowboy/uwa/RexReeves.jpgVS.http://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r203/gratefulcowboy/uwa/th83307_Primus_Allen_alt2_122_467lo.jpghttp://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r203/gratefulcowboy/uwa/WarrenTechnique_alt.jpg

-This encounter was one of the more exciting tag matches in UWA history! TNT and Dynamite showed excellent chemistry in the ring, and despite their size difference pulled off two non-tag switches behind referee Chad Brent’s back due to their similar masks. Jetson and Reeves looked like a surprisingly good pairing, their veteran experience obviously coming into play making it easy for them to work off of each other. In the end after a series of double snap suplxes it was Dynamite claiming victory for The Detonators with a STF submission win over Rex Reeves. The Detonators' supporters club Los Bambitos went wild after the victory, throwing soda and hot dogs into the air with delight! E+

Larry: What a fantastic debut for The Detonators! They looked unstoppable in there!

Remmington: I wouldn’t say that at all, Larry. The Wrestlers more than held their own in there and if not for illegal double-team moves that the referee somehow overlooked I think they would have won this match!

Larry: Well, now you sound like a moron.

Remmington: Okay then… well that last match was just the appetizer, because the UWA World Tag Team Championship is on the line next!

No Fear vs. First Class

-This was a complete showcase victory for First Class. From the very off Roderick Remus and Stan “The Man” Manna dominated the action, with Manna taking control by catching a leaping Fearless Blue and powerslamming him back down to the mat in one vicious motion. Fluid and frequent tags from First Class punctuated the match as they just oozed superiority over the former backyard wrestling stars. After some toying, Stan the Man hit his Rockin’ Roller finisher on Daredevil Aero for the victory. First Class are crowned the first ever UWA World Tag Team Champions! E

Larry: You can’t say they didn’t deserve it Remmeister. First Class absolutely dominated No Fear in a heads-up showdown to win the belts!

Remmington: It does look like it’s back to the drawing board for now for No Fear. But this is a talented young team I’m sure they’ll be back!

Dermot O’Logical Pantomime
http://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r203/gratefulcowboy/uwa/DermotOLogical.jpg
Dermot O’Logical comes out for his match with Ace Youngblood. Once O’Logical gets into the ring he takes out a large mirror from his pocket and uses it so he can apply moisturizer to his face and hands. He then proceeds to pantomime a wrestling match against an invisible opponent, presumably Ace Youngblood, and in the end he is victorious. The crowd absolutely loves it. D-

http://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r203/gratefulcowboy/uwa/AceYoungblood.jpgVS.http://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r203/gratefulcowboy/uwa/DermotOLogical.jpg

-This was shaping up to be a pretty good match but something with Ace just seemed a bit off. Dermot O’Logical did his best to keep the crowd entertained, and they responded well to him, but it was Ace Youngblood getting the pinfall victory after his trademark Flying Tomahawk Chop. E+

Remmington: What a victory for Ace Youngblood! It just goes to show that this youngster really means business here in the UWA.

Larry: I don’t understand that one at all Remy. It looked like Dermot O’Logical was holding back all match. I just don’t get it. For my money, O’Logical even looked like the better wrestler tonight!

Remmington: No matter, it’s a victory for Youngblood regardless. And now we get ready for the Main Event!

Surge Prepares For His Title Match
http://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r203/gratefulcowboy/uwa/JackAvatar.jpg
The monitors in the Weston Gym show Jim Surge psyching himself up in front of a mirror back in the locker room. He suddenly looks a bit preoccupied as his thoughts drift off for a few moments, but he snaps out of it and seems to be in tremendous physical condition and otherwise prepared for the match. D

The crowd gets a little jittery themselves with a nervous murmur running around the gym as they discuss the segment.

Larry: Surge looks a little worried there Rem!

Remmington: I don’t think he’s worried, necessarily, but he certainly didn’t look as focused as you might hope someone would be when going up for the World Heavyweight Championship.

UWA World Heavyweight Championship Title Match

Jim Surge vs. Gargantuan

http://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r203/gratefulcowboy/uwa/JackAvatar.jpgVS.http://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r203/gratefulcowboy/uwa/Gargantuan.jpg

-Surge came down to the ring this time to Elvis’ “Viva Las Vegas” looking fairly determined and, surprisingly, half-ignoring some of the fans on his slow, confident amble from the locker room area. Gargantuan made quite an entrance, walking to the ring to Fu Manchu’s new song “Gargantuan March” with Playboy Jake Sawyer backstage turning on and off the gym’s light switches in rapid fashion to make for an interesting strobe-like effect. This match was exactly the opposite of when Surge and Gargantuan squared off in a tag match last month, with Surge absolutely dominating Gargantuan for almost the entire match. But when Surge attempted his double underhook piledriver on the giant Canadian, his legs gave way and he collapsed to the mat. Surge was able to recover first, but Sawyer rushed to the ring and smashed Surge’s leg again with his diamond-tipped cane right in front of referee Dewey Libertine. Gargantuan got on top of Surge for the cover and Libertine gave a quick count to make Gargantuan the first ever UWA World Heavyweight Champion. D+

Remmington: An amazing turn of events! Gargantuan basically just stole the World Heavyweight Championship with help from Playboy Jake Sawyer and Dewey Libertine!

Larry: History has been made here tonight at UWA Night of Honor! Gargantuan is the new champion!

Remmington: And now what’s this?

From out of nowhere, First Class comes to the ring to join the celebration. They also take the time to stomp on Jim Surge and toss him from the ring.

Duncan Kendall comes to the ring to congratulate Dewey Libertine and Gargantuan on jobs well done.

Finally, they all gather in a circle around Gargantuan and cheer him one more time as Gargantuan straps the belt around his waist and raises his arms in victory. C+

Larry: What a stunning ending to Night of Honor – Jim Surge laid out by First Class and it looks like referee Dewey Libertine may have been in Gargantuan’s corner for this match!

Remmington: May have been? That quick count was ridiculous! But aside from that, are we now witnessing the formation of the UWA’s first supergroup right here before our very eyes? Gargantuan and First Class, led by Playboy Jake Sawyer?

Larry: Looks like we’ll find out next month, Rem, out of time for now!

UWA Night of Honor - Postmortem (pt. 1 of 2)

BUZZZZZZZZ!

Jim Surge looks around his Hoboken apartment as he wakes up on the floor near his couch surrounded by empty cans of Miller Lite. His usually well-kept and clean place was trashed after last night’s show, a show where Surge was cheated out of the UWA World Heavyweight Championship by Gargantuan, Playboy Jake Sawyer, and Dewey Libertine. Not only that, he had been attacked after the match by UWA World Tag Team Champions First Class who further humiliated the fed’s founder by stomping him and throwing him from the ring. Surge hit his head against the ring apron on the way to the floor and it had left a small gash behind his right ear where his hair was matted to his skull with dried blood. The beer had helped him pass out at the end of the night, but now it was helping contribute to a throbbing headache.

“Damn crap beer,” Surge says, the sound of tin being crumpled audible as the Arizona native begins to stir and get up onto all fours.

BUZZZZZZZZ!

It takes Surge a second to get his bearings, but he realizes someone is outside his building ringing the buzzer for his apartment.

“Crap,” he says as he notices the clock on the wall. It was 1:00 on Friday afternoon and that meant it was likely Vin Tanner and Curt O’Malley at the door for the Night of Honor postmortem meeting. Surge sighs as he gathers the strength to pull himself up and he kicks a few of the cans away as he walks over to his door.

“Hey,” Surge says through the speaker near his door, “listen I’m really sorry we’re going to have to postpone this.”

“Oh,” says a female voice coming through the speaker. “I was just wondering if you were okay. You left without saying goodbye to anybody last night and you were looking really out of it. Then I heard from Ernie that you were going out drinking and I got worried.”

“Wait,” Surge says, “Amber?”

“Well, yeah,” says Amber Allen, “you told me to come over today. Who’d you expect?”

“I thought Vin and O’Malley were coming over,” Surge answers.

“Wow, maybe you hit your head harder than you think,” Amber replies, “you told them that you didn’t want to have the meeting until Saturday. It’s only Friday.”

“Oh yeah,” Surge says, not remembering a thing. “Listen, why don’t you come up?”

Surge hits the button to open the front door for his building. About a minute or so later Amber is up in apartment 4D.

“What happened here last night?” a disgusted Amber asks as she looks around to see the mess that Surge made the night before. “You didn’t go out drinking; you came here and drank alone?”

“I just came home and tried to get some sleep,” Surge answers. “I wanted to make sense of what happened, and the beer helped. Listen, Amber, I appreciate the concern and I know what it must look like here. But honestly, this isn’t a regular thing. I hardly touch the stuff. But after what happened last night…”

“After what happened last night,” Amber says as she backs up towards the door, “you should have stayed with friends, like we kept telling you.”

“Yeah,” Surge begins with a laugh, “yeah, some friends! I’m bleeding cash to keep this operation afloat and everyone’s just scheming behind my back to take it all away. I bet if I went with you guys last night I’d have woken up in the middle of the woods somewhere with no way of getting home!”

“Oh please,” Amber says in a clearly annoyed tone, “I realize you’ve hit your head but I thought you were different. You carried yourself differently, you have a good mind for the business, and loads of athletic talent. But the reality is that you’re no different than any of them. When you’ve decided to grow up, why don’t you give me a call.”

Amber turns and exits and Surge flops onto his couch as the door closes. After a few seconds he jumps up.

“Awww crap,” he says, looking at a huge wet stain on his pants. Surge pulls a half empty can of beer out from a crack between the cushions on his couch and chucks it against the wall. It crashes down among the other trash on the ground and the remaining contents empty onto the carpet in his living room.

“Nice,” Surge says as he makes his way to the bathroom to splash water on his face. “This is going to be a tough month.”

UWA Night of Honor - Postmortem (Pt. 2 of 2)

Jim Surge, Vin Tanner and Curt O’Malley are all seated at a booth at the Malibu Diner in Hoboken, New Jersey on Saturday afternoon at 1:00. Surge, completely recovered from his rough Thursday night, seems to be in much better spirits than he has been lately and is clean-shaven and bright-eyed. An elderly male waiter appears to take their order.

“I think I’ll have this salmon platter,” begins Tanner as he points to his menu.

“Woah, woah, woah,” interrupts Surge before turning his attention to the waiter. “I’m sorry sir we still need a minute.”

The waiter makes an odd face and shuffles away from the table without saying a word.

“Great,” Surge says, “they’re probably going to spit on the food now.”

“What are you talking about?” Tanner asks.

“You,” Surge answers, “you don’t ever order fish at a diner. What’s wrong with you?”

“Huh?” replies a confused Tanner. “It’s on the menu you know.”

“You have to order breakfast,” says O’Malley. “You can’t get any of those entrees it just isn’t a good idea.”

“Yeah man,” Surge scolds, “I’m from Arizona and even I know that!”

“Oh, well, I did not know that,” Tanner admits. “It’s afternoon though I’m not really in the mood for breakfast.”

“Well,” Surge compromises, “you can get a grilled cheese or something. But that’s about it.”

“Maybe a burger,” O’Malley says, “but really only if the place is known for its burgers. And this place is known for having breakfast available 24 hours a day.”

“Okay then,” Tanner says. “What are you guys getting?”

“French toast,” says Surge without hesitation.

“I think a ham omelet,” O’Malley says as he takes a sip of coffee. “Although the Eggs Benedict are really good here.”

“Who cares anyway?” Tanner asks. “I thought we were here to talk business.”

“Right,” Surge says. “So, I only lost seven grand on that last show. That’s a big improvement.”

“That’s because we picked up a few more sponsors,” Tanner reasons. “That last show got us some notice you should be happy with what you’ve been building here the last four months.”

“You’ve also been sinking money into the Weston,” O’Malley says about the UWA’s home venue the Weston Gymnasium. “A lot of those improvements are just one-time expenses, like the flatscreens. Now things are starting to work out well.”

“Yeah, uh,” Tanner stammers, “and what’s with you using Elvis and Tom Waits entrance music, man? If anyone really hears about that you’re probably going to get sued. Nevermind the whole Black Magic thing.”

“If we get sued that’ll be a good thing,” Surge says with a smile. “We’ll be all over the news.”

“Oh man,” O’Malley says, a bit surprised, “you sound like Rich Eisen.”

“Nah man,” Surge snaps back, “if you noticed the songs were Las Vegas related.”

“Yeah? So?” questions Tanner.

“I moved to Las Vegas from Arizona when I turned 18,” admits Surge, “and I got a job doing research for some of the sports bookies at the casinos.”

“Woah, woah, woah!” Tanner mocks back at Surge, “Hold up! You worked for a bookie?”

“I helped set the odds,” Surge answers, “did all the research and helped set the point spreads on just about any sport you can think of.”

“Something else I did not know,” Tanner says, the gears clearly turning in his head. The waiter returns to the table but O’Malley motions him away with his hand while at the same time makes an apologetic gesture with his face. The old man sighs and walks on to another table.

“You ever hear of Sammy the Shark?” O’Malley asks. “He works for NYCW.”

Surge nods his head affirmative.

“You know,” Tanner says, “Curt’s onto something. NYCW are our competition now. We bring in a top guy of theirs like Sammy and we help gain a little popularity all thanks to The Stomper. And you, you being a freakin’ oddsmaker, we’ve got the Las Vegas Express right there!”

“Well…” Surge stalls, but he can’t put together a thought in time. “You know, it’s not the worst idea in the world…”

“Are you ready to order?” O’Malley interrupts before Surge can change his mind. He turns his attention to Tanner and continues: “That old timer isn’t going to take much more of this.”

“Yes!” Tanner says excitedly. “I think I’ll have a toasted bagel with lox.”

“Now that’s the spirit!” Surge says.

First Class is the team right now and I just do not see them losing.

Okay I hate Dermot but I still think he is going to win

I love that you put the title on the monster wrestler! This sets up a David vs. Goliath match sowhere in the future. However, Ace will not be David in this match.

Brady Prince vs. Dermot O’Logical

Everyone succesfully defends their titles and I'll go the other way to BHK on the Brady-Dermot match.

UWA Cosmic Crash - Prelude

“Jim! Jim!” says the nasal voice of Dewey Libertine, a voice that snaps Jim Surge from a deep meditation. Libertine had opened the door to the gym teacher’s office at the Weston Gymnasium after Surge hadn’t responded to his knocking, only to find Surge in a trance-like state with the lights turned off hunched over in a chair.

“You okay, man?” Libertine asks. Surge chuckles a bit.

“That’s funny coming from you,” Surge replies coldly. “Do you mean am I okay after you robbed me last month of the World Championship in my own federation?”

“You’re still sore about that, eh?” Libertine says, knowing full well the UWA’s owner was angry after Dewey’s fast count on Surge last month at Night of Honor helped crown Gargantuan as the UWA’s first ever World Heavyweight Champion. “No, I meant because you were sitting in the dark and it looked like you were about to fall out of your chair.”

“Dewey,” Surge says, taking a deep breath to control his anger, “I appreciate the help you gave me this winter when I was starting up the fed. I appreciate you utilizing your connections to help round up workers. You help set up some storylines. I do appreciate it all. But I can’t have guys I don’t trust making any sort of decisions about this fed. I don’t have unlimited funds, remember, so this all has to go smoothly or it’s all going to end.”

“Yeah,” Libertine mutters, “you new breed. All you’re worried about is the money. I’m glad we gave you a lesson in professional wrestling last month.”

Surge seems taken aback as Libertine leaves the office. He has little time to think on it though as Curt O’Malley strolls in.

“Something’s up with the ring,” a concerned O’Malley says. “Dunc’s been having trouble with one of the ring posts staying in place.”

“Great,” Surge laughs in disbelief, “what next?”

“Well, that’s it,” O’Malley says, “but it’s a big one. It’s the ring, you know.”

Surge looks at O’Malley and laughs again.

“This is funny?” asks O’Malley. “We’re facing HUGE liability issues here Jim this really isn’t the time…”

“I’m facing huge liability issues,” Surge interrupts, “not ‘we.’ ME! Tell Kendall to stand out there and hold the damn thing tonight.”

“What? Are you serious?” asks an unsure O’Malley.

“Well what else am I paying him for?” a rather sure of himself Surge replies. “To play babysitter for one of the locker rooms?”

“Well in his defense, he does script a couple of matches per card for you,” O’Malley says.

“Yeah,” Surge says, “he’s got a month in between shows. What a workload. Tell him to get out there.”

“This should be interesting…” O’Malley says under his breath as he exits the office.

Purple Cowboy · October 31, 2009

I love that you put the title on the monster wrestler! This sets up a David vs. Goliath match sowhere in the future. However, Ace will not be David in this match.

Thanks! That was the plan from the beginning, and get Gargantuan hooked in with Sawyer and First Class to form the First Class stable. I think Surge may drop to the tag ranks for a few months, we'll see how it pans out.

I didn't realize there was a bit of an undercurrent against Dermot O'Logical. There are some alt pics of him in the alt thread so maybe I'll change his look. I forgot who (maybe Phantom Stranger?) but someone was using him really well not too long ago in their dynasty. He's certainly the type of "character" you'd expect at one of these low-budget shows!
