TCW: The Never Ending Journey

Don't know how I managed to miss predicting on this one (sorry about that!) but another awesome show. Some nice additions - I'll not guess on Champagne Caviar, since I already know who one of them is ;)

 

I mean, obviously, it is Alberto...Del...Rrrrrrrrrrrrrrriooooooo :p

What a week we have witnessed here in TCW. Eric Tyler has been officially instated as the figurehead of authority and has the right to make any matches he sees fit and at the same time overrule any of Cornell’s decisions should he feel that Tommy is unfairly throwing his weight around. It has been announced that Tyler wishes to address both sides of the upcoming 8-man tag team elimination match to set out some ground rules for the run up to the PPV. Eric has assured us that he will be playing no favourites and that he intends on governing with an even hand.

 

The opening contest of the night will see the in-ring TCW debut of Gino Montero as he goes in singles action against UK Dragon in what is sure to be a high-flying affair. These two individuals are well versed in the lucha libre style and we expect to see this feature heavily in this match.

 

Speaking of high-flying action, the TCW All-Action title will be on the line next as defending champion, Edd Stone looks to beat former 3 time holder of the belt Chance Fortune in a match that should provide all the visual spectaculars that come with an Edd Stone match and then some.

 

Aaron Andrews will be up against the biggest test of his young career as he goes one-on-one with the Hardcore Assassin, Eddie Peak. Double AA has been improving in leaps and bounds over the past few months but if he is to have any chance of beating the Great White he better hope he has learned how to fight to survive first.

 

In the first of three Syndicate/Alliance-New Wave matches of the night, we will see Guide go in singles competition against Tommy Cornell’s protégé Wolf Hawkins. Will the usual tag team competitor Guide find that he is out of his depth in singles competition or will his steely nerves shine through?

 

The same question can be asked of Brent Hill as he will be set to go against the younger half of the Alliance in Joey Minnesota. These matches between the two warring factions may give us a greater indication of who will be left standing after this war culminates.

 

A match that should be one of the best technical affairs will follow, as Bryan Vessey will look to derail the momentum of Sam Keith when they square off in singles action

 

The main event of the night will be interesting to say the least as the Outlaw Ricky Dale Johnson will team with one half of the New Wave in Scout as they take on the duo of Tommy Cornell and John Anderson. Expect the unexpected as the four competitors involved share little regard for their opponents’ wellbeing.

 

Sam Keith has also been granted some mike time and as we understand it, Champagne Caviar have another promotional video for us. Be sure not to miss any of the action this Tuesday on GNN Total Sports!

Gino Montero vs UK Dragon

Gino is certainly the more talented, which is a feat in itself, so I'm going for the Mexican.

TCW All-Action Championship: Edd Stone © vs Chance Fortune

Edd Stone is THE 24/7 party animal!

Aaron Andrews vs Eddie Peak

Eddie Peak is a crazed psychopath. Aaron Andrews lives in Hollywood. 'Nuff said.

Guide vs Wolf Hawkins

As much as I like The New Wave, I think Wolf has too much potential to lose to a tag specialist in a 1 vs 1.

Joey Minnesota vs Brent Hill

Tough one, but again, I think Minnesota has more potential than Hill.

Bryan Vessey vs Sam Keith

I can't decide, so I'm going for a draw!

Ricky Dale Johnson & Scout vs Tommy Cornell & John Anderson

Tommy Cornell to pin Scout for the victory.

No way Dragon, much as I like him, should trump Montero at this stage.

Champ won't drop this until a worthy challenger's been built. He's in a different match.

 

Aaron Andrews vs Eddie Peak

Aaron needs seasoning. Eddie needs food.

 

Guide vs Wolf Hawkins

I love Guide, but he's the weaker of the Wave and Wolf's better. Good matchup, though - where Guide is strong, Wolf should improve.

 

Joey Minnesota vs Brent Hill

He's gonna win through.

 

Bryan Vessey vs Sam Keith

Sam's in the title picture.

Gino Montero vs UK Dragon

 

Montero has future superstar potential and I think you'll want to have him make a strong debut.

 

TCW All-Action Championship

Edd Stone © vs Chance Fortune

 

Edd Stone's going to hold onto this belt until some more worthy challengers have been built up. Fortune's about as mediocre, as it gets for this level of promotion.

 

Aaron Andrews vs Eddie Peak

 

In three, maybe two years I might buy into this match being a bit more competitive and Double A actually having a chance, depending on how he progresses, but in the here and now of 2010, this will be little more than an extended squash.

 

Guide vs Wolf Hawkins

 

Singles star over Tag Team specialist.

 

Joey Minnesota vs Brent Hill

 

Though Hill has more singles experience than Guide, the same reasoning applies for this match.

 

Bryan Vessey vs Sam Keith

 

Keith needs to be kept strong, as he's the current World Title challenger....Vessey will probably get his shot down the road but for now he's beaten up from his war with Eddie Peak.

 

Ricky Dale Johnson & Scout vs Tommy Cornell & John Anderson

 

I'll go along with the general consensus here that Cornell pins scout to win the match for the Syndicate pairing.

TCW Presents Total Wrestling

The orchestral beat of “Come With Me” echoes around the arena as The Syndicate led by Tommy Cornell make their way to the ring. All four men have a steely look of determination and walk with a purpose, remaining focussed despite the unanimous boos they are greeted with. They enter the ring and stand as a united front towards the hard camera. Hawkins saunters to the ringside assistant who is presenting a microphone and Wolf snatches it away before handing it to his mentor. Cornell takes a long moment to study the crowd before beginning.

 

Cornell: “I know Eric Tyler was given the go ahead to open the show but I don’t give a s***. This is still The Syndicate’s house and Tyler will just have to wait until I say he can begin!”

 

Hawkins and The Machines nod in agreement.

 

Cornell: “For the better part of two years we have defined professional wrestling. The Syndicate have remained at the epicentre of this sport and we have no intentions of stopping any time soon. At The War To Settle The Score, The Syndicate will wipe the floor with the Alliance and The New Wave and in doing so remove the last remaining hope of the Syndicate’s demise! So make any rules you want; stack the odds however you please Tyler because you will not stop us from winning this war!”

 

“Dirty Deeds Done Cheap” signals the arrival of Eric Tyler and he stands proud at the top of the entranceway looking down at the four suited men standing in the ring.

 

http://i761.photobucket.com/albums/xx252/LoNdOn_BeAsT/EricTylerALT.jpg

 

Tyler: “Settle down boys. There is no need to get stroppy. When I was given this position of authority I promised the board that I would be fair and keep my personal feelings out of the equation when making decisions and I will keep to my word.”

 

The Syndicate look on suspiciously at Tyler as he continues.

 

Tyler: “Now as I was planning on saying, tonight there will be rules that must be followed in all Syndicate/Alliance-New Wave matches. Should any individual from either side interfere in a match that they are not booked to appear in, they will be removed from the 8-man elimination tag match at the PPV!”

 

The sneer on Cornell’s face is immediate and this kicks the other three Syndicate members into a war of words directed at Tyler.

 

Tyler: “Like I said, this goes for both teams so nobody is being unfairly done by. So if you’ll excuse me gentlemen I believe it is time to get this show started!”

 

Eric Tyler heads backstage and after a while The Syndicate follow suit although all four are clearly annoyed with the ruling.

Gino Montero vs UK Dragon

The TCW debut of Gino Montero proved two things. Firstly, both he and UK Dragon have the ability to put on a really entertaining contest and secondly, Gino and Dragon are relatively unknown to the TCW fan base.

 

The action as expected was fast and fluid, with both competitors exchanging slick grappling combinations; Montero showing that he has experience beyond his years and eventually it was the younger man who triumphed after a spectacular Montero Press (high leaping moonsault) enabled the pinfall victory.

Edd Stone © vs Chance Fortune

The crowd livened up for the championship match although it should be noted that the actual in ring action was no better than the opener; the name value of the competitors coupled with championship gold on the line made the world of difference however.

 

Fortune and Stone engaged in aerial warfare and for a long time it appeared that Fortune was getting the better of things by calculating the risks; Stone on the other hand went balls to the wall and flipped here, there and everywhere to try an toy with his opponent. Fortune ascended the top rope and perched for a moment to take in the crowd reaction which unfortunately proved his undoing as Stone, from the canvas, hit the Party’s Over on Chance which caused him to tumble awkwardly back into the ring. Stone secured the successful title defence with the following cover.

We see the same cherry red Ferrari from last week tear down a highway at top speed; the two individuals in the car concealed through clever camera work. The car pulls into a long driveway that stretches for some distance. At the end of the drive stands a grand palace where there are several guests waiting outside in glamorous dresses and suits. The two men exit the Ferrari and throw the keys dismissively to the concierge. Everybody at the gathering pause whatever they are doing and focus their attention on the latest arrivals. The next few clips are cut to highlight the importance of the two unknown individuals and this footage is intertwined with in-ring shots – Superkick – Neckbreaker- Leaping facecrusher. The screen fades to black as the clear cut words “Champagne Caviar, Next week.........” appear on the screen.

Aaron Andrews vs Eddie Peak

In what can only be described as a massacre, Aaron Andrews endured a savage beating to the point where a laceration on his head caused by one of Peak’s vicious right hands, resulted in his entire face and a large portion of his chest to turn scarlet red with blood. The match started violently and only deteriorated further as the match progressed.

 

Peak threw Andrews around like a rag doll and in the process got covered in his opponent’s blood which only made the whole disturbing scene that much more sinister. Andrews tried his best and refused to lie down, even kicking out of numerous pinfall attempts, but after a very bloody Peak Of Perfection on a crimson stained canvas, this match mercifully came to an end.

Peak rises to his feet, all the while glaring down at the bloody Aaron Andrews who remains motionless on the canvas. He is handed a microphone by the referee who wastes little time in making a hasty retreat. The Hardcore Assassin looms over his fallen opponent and with one swipe of his right hand clears the blood from Andrews’ forehead before wiping it down his own chest like some form of war paint. He snarls at the crowd before beginning to speak.

 

Peak: “This is what I am capable of!” A finger pointed towards Andrews. “This is the type of destruction I can cause on someone who I am indifferent to! Imagine what damage I could do to you Bryan............When you answered that open challenge you p***** me off. I had all but forgotten about you and then you go and step back in the line of fire. Now I will end your career!........................ So here it is; you and me, one on one; falls count anywhere. I dare you to say yes because I promise you that it will be the worst decision you ever make!”

 

“I Don’t Wanna Stop” plays through the arena speakers and out comes Bryan Vessey; his ribs no longer bandaged. He takes a long hard look at the monster of a man standing in the ring before eventually responding.

Guide vs Wolf Hawkins

A tough match that took its toll on both men; Guide started the more aggressive but the sly tendencies of Wolf paid dividends as the bout grew in length. Guide became sloppy and this allowed Hawkins to counter with precision. A Guided Missile was avoided and instead the New Wave member was met with a step up Full Moon Rising which ended the match after just over thirteen minutes of action.

http://i761.photobucket.com/albums/xx252/LoNdOn_BeAsT/JasmineSaundersALT.jpg

We are taken backstage to an area of the building that has been set for an interview. Jasmine Saunders stands proudly in the centre of the camera’s shot; smiling sweetly at the lens. Jason Azaria segues into the piece and this is the cue for Jasmine to begin.

 

Saunders: “Thanks Jason, I’m here backstage with a very special guest tonight. This man is a true legend in this sport and has been at the very top of the business for the past two decades. It is my privilege to introduce to you, Sam Keith. Sam, thanks for joining us today.”

 

http://i761.photobucket.com/albums/xx252/LoNdOn_BeAsT/SamKeith-1.jpg

 

Keith stares at Saunders with a look of derision as if he were above her questioning. Jasmine is a little disheartened by Keith’s apparent lack of emotion but perseveres all the same.

 

Saunders: “Last week you called TCW World Heavyweight Champion Rocky Golden out and from what we understand, he still hasn’t responded to your requested rematch. What do you have to say about that?”

 

Keith exhales heavily through his nose.

 

Keith: “It just shows that what I was saying about Rocky Golden since the beginning was fact.” He shakes his head. “The so called TCW Heavyweight champion is nothing more than a pathetic little cow......”

 

http://i761.photobucket.com/albums/xx252/LoNdOn_BeAsT/RockyGoldenALT.jpg

 

Golden: “Coward right?........................That’s what you think I am isn’t it Sam? You’ve said it before. You don’t think I’m worthy of this title. Well let me ask you this Sam, how many people have you made submit with the Proton Lock? Hundreds? Thousands?”

 

Keith is staring a hole through Golden and his nostrils begin to flare.

 

Golden: “And how many have refused to submit? How many did what I did at Malice In Wonderland and hung on, fought to stay in the fight? I bet you can count them on one hand!”

 

Keith raises his head slightly as Golden steps in closer.

 

Golden: “No, Sam. I stayed in the fight! It was you who got disqualified! It was you who realised what they were up against and wanted out! You call me a coward for what I did last week? I wasn’t ducking a challenge Sam, I went to the board to get a stipulation which you wouldn’t be able to back out from!...............At The War To Settle The Score, you’ll get your title rematch.........inside a steel cage!”

 

Whatever Keith is thinking it can’t be deciphered due to his steely expression on display; fear, excitement, both? You wouldn’t want to play Texas Hold’em with Sam Keith; he is very difficult to read. The two men go nose to nose, unflinching and not willing to give an inch. Eventually they are separated by security as the war of words threatens to boil over into acts of physicality; Rocky Golden holding the World title above his head as the cameras return to ringside.

Joey Minneosta vs Brent Hill

An engaging technical showcase of two slightly varying styles of this craft; Hill providing the no-frills attached, straight laced, suplex and slam grappling whilst Minnesota combined technical proficiency with a modern twist of flashier moves and the result was pleasing to the eye. Hill fought hard from beginning to end but this night was not to be his and an Empire Spiral ended proceedings after a little over fourteen minutes of action. That makes two for two on Syndicate/Alliance-New Wave matches without interference, just as Eric Tyler had ordered.

http://i761.photobucket.com/albums/xx252/LoNdOn_BeAsT/SammyBachALT.jpghttp://i761.photobucket.com/albums/xx252/LoNdOn_BeAsT/KarenKillerALT.jpg

The heavy opening chords of “Holy Diver” sound out over the arena speakers and Sammy Bach swaggers his way to ringside with Karen Killer following in his wake. He sends the Gothic Groupie to retrieve a microphone for him and lowers his sunglasses as he begins his address.

 

Bach: “Ladies and gentleman and groupies of the Rock God all around the world, you have laid witness to greatness. I, Sammy Bach last week showed why I will be TCW International champion for a long time to come!”

 

Bach unties the buttons of the belt around his waist and lifts it up to be draped over his shoulder. He breathes on the gold before polishing it with his sleeve.

 

Bach: “It takes more than pure skill to be a champion; you’ve got to be smart; you’ve got to know how to get the job done. I displayed my intelligence last week when I successfully retained my title against Mr Generic, Joshua Taylor, once again proving that he doesn’t have what it takes to stick at my level; the level of a true Rock God!”

 

Karen Killer begins to clap furiously in support of her charge as he pauses to soak in the adulation (read: boos) of the crowd. This reaction soon changes however as the former International champion, Joshua Taylor makes his way down the entrance ramp.

 

http://i761.photobucket.com/albums/xx252/LoNdOn_BeAsT/JoshuaTaylorALT3.jpg

 

Taylor: “Don’t you ever get tired of listening to yourself talk? I mean, damn, after fifteen seconds it feels like audio violation. You walk around that ring talking like you got a valid win over me last week, but you lost Sammy; you had to cheat to leave with the title and I’m here to inform you that I will be taking it back right now!”

 

Taylor begins to pace towards the ring apron when his stopped in his tracks by “Rock You Like A Hurricane” and Troy Tornado. Troy receives a bigger reaction than Taylor and this seems to sting Joshua somewhat but any further thoughts on the matter are curtailed by the sound of Tornado’s voice.

 

http://i761.photobucket.com/albums/xx252/LoNdOn_BeAsT/TroyTornadoALT3.jpg

 

Tornado: “Now I don’t want to tread on your toes Joshua, but if anybody is gonna beat the arrogance out of Bach it is gonna be me!...............So if you wouldn’t mind stepping out of the way I have some business to handle.”

 

Tornado marches down until he is standing beside Taylor and the two begin a heated discussion. Bach is flitting his attention between the two and his fear becomes a reality when Taylor and Tornado both turn their attention on the self proclaimed Rock God simultaneously. They slide into the ring and Bach begins to furiously search for an escape route and even resorts to thrusting the Gothic Groupie in front of him as a human shield.

 

For the second time we hear Eric Tyler’s entrance theme hit and the man himself follows shortly thereafter.

 

http://i761.photobucket.com/albums/xx252/LoNdOn_BeAsT/EricTylerALT.jpg

 

Tyler: “Gentlemen, gentlemen, gentlemen. There will be no physical confrontation between you three tonight....................................Joshua, you were wrongfully done by in your International title rematch last week, and Troy, you have had your share of problems with Mr Bach as well over these past few weeks so how about this: At The War To Settle The Score, why don’t we have ourselves a triple threat match for the International title?”

 

Tornado and Taylor both nod eagerly in response but Bach does not seem happy with the ruling at all and he quickly begins to argue with Tyler although the man himself has already walked backstage, uninterested with Bach’s qualms. Soon enough Bach is brought back down to the reality of the situation as both Tornado and Taylor have closed in on him and he is now cornered. Karen Killer makes a last ditch save for her client and jumps in front of the two men allowing Bach a small window of opportunity to escape which he hastily takes.

Bryan Vessey vs Sam Keith

A match that would sell out the biggest arenas in Japan; Vessey and Keith displayed their deep rooted knowledge of psychology to its fullest and provided a dramatic match with even the simplest of moves and counters, adding a feeling of importance to aspects that would be overlooked in a match between lesser competitors.

 

Keith being more willing to bend the rules, used this fact to the fullest and took control of the match late on with a picture perfect bridging German Suplex that followed a quick eye poke; fortunately for Vessey, he managed to kick out just before the count of three. Keith kept up the pressure and looked to connect with a Neutron Plex but was stopped with a couple of swift elbows to the jaw. Vessey went to counter with a Vessey Driver but he himself was on the receiving end of a reversal in the form of a small package that earned Sam Keith the narrowest of victories.

As Sam Keith heads back up the entrance ramp he is passed by a thundering train of a man who enters the ring to go right for Vessey. The Hardcore Assassin and Bryan Vessey begin to trade blows and the brawl spills out of the ring and through the crowd until both men are out of view. A little taste of what can be expected at The War To Settle The Score.

Ricky Dale Johnson & Scout vs Tommy Cornell & John Anderson

Full of heat and passion between the two sides; RDJ and Cornell were kept apart for the majority of the contest although if the Outlaw had his way that would not have been the case. Cornell was the one who appeared to be ducking out of the way at every opportunity and he left Anderson to pick up the slack.

 

Scout injected a bit of pace into proceedings and it was through his escapades that the match began to break down. Frustrated at not being able to better the member of the New Wave, Cornell interjected himself illegally into the match and sent Scout tumbling out of the ring after a vicious forearm to the back of the head. RDJ saw fit to bring a dose of justice into proceedings; Southern Justice to be precise and he hit this on John Anderson as Cornell followed Scout to the floor following a big boot to the chin.

The four competitors began to fight outside the ring and the referee was left with little choice but to count the two teams out. This however, did nothing to stop the fight and with the bell having been sounded, the arrival of Hawkins, Hill, Guide and Minnesota shortly followed and the eight men continued to furiously brawl around the arena floor. The chaos continued as the show comes to an end and we see swarms of security converging on the scene as the screen fades to black.

Ricky Dale Johnson & Scout drew with Tommy Cornell & John Anderson

Another good show, London.

 

Thanks BP. Glad you are enjoying it. :)

 

I take some time off and miss predicting on another great show. I was never one for getting into TCW diaries but this one has pulled me in.

 

You snooze, you lose :p;)

 

Thanks man, I take that as a massive compliment seeing as PhantomStranger's TCW diary is a staple of these boards and is quite the source of inspiration for me. From what I have seen, BlakeTrask is doing some good things in his TCW and I haven't really had much opportunity to check purplecowboy's work yet. Hopefully I can maintain your interest for the long haul.

Post-Show Thoughts

 

- Given the right build up, Vessey/Keith could be quite an interesting feud.

 

- This show displayed that Eric Tyler is in charge to not just make life difficult for The Syndicate but to be more like a general manager for the company as a whole. Wherever a level headed decision maker is needed, Tyler will be there.

 

- Interesting to see that most predicted Cornell to go over Scout in the main event and honestly that result did cross my mind but I felt that this outcome presented the two sides as being on level footing.

 

- Anybody notice the similarities between the Aaron Andrews/Eddie Peak confrontation and a certain notorious SWF match of the nineties?

Top Ten Breakout Stars of TCW for 2010

 

http://i761.photobucket.com/albums/xx252/LoNdOn_BeAsT/SammyBachALT.jpg

1) Sammy Bach - having already laid claim to the TCW International championship, Bach has already started the year strong. The self-proclaimed "Rock God" is all kinds of talented, and he knows it. Having Karen Killer at his side only helps Bach, even if she does nothing to deflate his growing ego. Bach is certain to accomplish big things this year - just ask him and he'll tell you all about it.

 

 

http://i761.photobucket.com/albums/xx252/LoNdOn_BeAsT/JoeyMinnesotaALT.jpg

2) Joey Minnesota - quite simply one of the most talented young wrestlers in the world, Minnesota saw his star rise dramatically throughout a very successful 2009. To top it this year, he may wind up laying claim to the TCW World Heavyweight championship. Working closely with multi-time champion Ricky Dale Johnson, Minnesota is as focused and determined as he is skilled. For Minnesota, the time is now!

 

 

http://i761.photobucket.com/albums/xx252/LoNdOn_BeAsT/TroyTornadoALT3.jpg

3) Troy Tornado - one of the last true originals in TCW, Tornado has enjoyed a great deal of success throughout his career in Total. But he has never achieved true greatness, as he's never won the TCW World Heavyweight championship. Though the rocker is hardly "old", he is no longer young either. And a new generation of TCW talent is coming through, making 2010 a "make or break" year in the career of Mr. Tornado.

 

 

http://i761.photobucket.com/albums/xx252/LoNdOn_BeAsT/EddiePeakALT.jpg

4) Eddie Peak - big, intense, and more than just a little crazy, there is a lot to fear about Eddie Peak. Peak has shown he is willing to make alliances and then turn on those allies when the inclination strikes. Perhaps even more so than his unpredictability, it’s his utter lack of remorse that makes him so dangerous. Now clearly settled into TCW after his successful star-making spell in DAVE, Peak could become one of the brightest stars in Total…

 

 

http://i761.photobucket.com/albums/xx252/LoNdOn_BeAsT/EddStoneALT2.jpg

5) Edd Stone - the youngest of the fabled Stone family, Edd has worked hard to make an impact in TCW. Still just 23 years old, he has already laid claim to the TCW All Action championship. And if you ask him, he'll be more than happy to tell you that it’s just the first step to what is certain to be a great career. He certainly doesn't lack in confidence, nor in talent.

 

 

http://i761.photobucket.com/albums/xx252/LoNdOn_BeAsT/RickLawALT3.jpg

6) Rick Law - one of the most shocking moments of 2009 in Total Championship Wrestling was Rick Law turning on his partner and friend Koshiro Ino. The duo have been feuding ever since, and the bad blood may never be completely settled. Assuming Law can move his attentions beyond Ino, the sky is the limit for the young brawler. He is a combination of power and athleticism that is tough to match.

 

 

http://i761.photobucket.com/albums/xx252/LoNdOn_BeAsT/AaronAndrewsALT.jpg

7) Aaron Andrews - the first TCW graduate continues to make headway. It’s not like AA is going to become a world champion in 2010, but he could move up the card significantly. His tag team with Chance Fortune is one with nearly-endless potential. Whether Aaron Andrews will ever make it to the elite level is still undecided, but if his current progress is anything to go by, we don’t see why he shouldn’t be able to reach the summit sooner rather than later.

 

 

http://i761.photobucket.com/albums/xx252/LoNdOn_BeAsT/BennyBensonALT2.jpg

8) Benny Benson - the big little man faces a tough road to make a big impact in TCW, but he is determined as he is talented. Having settled his feud with Troy Tornado, Benson can now focus on setting his mark in TCW and prove to one and all that the man formally known as Elmo Benson is no joke.

 

 

http://i761.photobucket.com/albums/xx252/LoNdOn_BeAsT/FreddyHugginsALT.jpg

9) Freddy Huggins - often over-shadowed by his tag team partner, Edd Stone, Huggins has a distinct advantage that most in TCW don't - the presence of his sister. She has proven quite willing to do what is necessary to help her brother toward victory, and that could help him make a bigger impact in 2010.

 

 

http://i761.photobucket.com/albums/xx252/LoNdOn_BeAsT/JoshuaTaylorALT3.jpg

10) Joshua Taylor - having already claimed the TCW International championship in 2009, Taylor continues to prove himself. It would surprise no one if he ends up in the world title scene within a year or two. Having just recently lost the International title to Sammy Bach, it will need to be seen if he can bounce back or will his climb to the top come to a crashing halt?

With just one episode of TCW Presents Total Wrestling before The War To Settle The Score, there will understandably be a lot at stake for those looking to make an impact. It will be announced who Edd Stone’s opponent will be for the TCW All Action title, we will see the debut of Champagne Caviar and much, much more.

 

To open the show we will see Gino Montero go in singles action against one half of the Canadian Animals in Freddy Huggins. With an impressive debut last week, can the young Mexican keep the momentum going or will he be derailed by the All-Action stalwart?

 

The second match of the show will see Benny Benson and UK Dragon team up to take on the debuting team known as Champagne Caviar. The two individuals are thus far still remaining anonymous but come Tuesday, their identities will be common knowledge as they step into TCW action for the first time.

 

The Japanese Warrior, Koshiro Ino will be in action next as he takes on the Hardcore Assassin, Eddie Peak. Rick Law will no doubt be taking a keen interest in this one as he will be facing Ino in a relaxed rules match at The War. Likewise, Bryan Vessey will be paying close attention as he will be taking on Peak in a Falls Count Anywhere match at the same event. Whether Peak and Ino will be able to maintain their focus will probably decide the outcome of this encounter.

 

Joey Minnesota will be taking on the TCW International champion, Sammy Bach following this; although the title itself will not be up for grabs, a win for either man will do their momentum the world of good as both have big matches coming up at The War To Settle The Score.

 

Minnesota’s tag team partner, Ricky Dale Johnson will be in action as he takes on the challenger for the TCW World Heavyweight championship, Sam Keith. This match has fans and critics alike salivating at the prospect of this collision. Hopefully this will remain unsoiled by outside interference but one can never tell when the Syndicate are involved.

 

Tommy Cornell personally requested this main event match between himself and Aaron Andrews. Eric Tyler was initially unwilling to book AA in a match this week following the beating he took at the hands of Eddie Peak, but being the fighter he is, Aaron Andrews stepped up to the plate and asked Tyler to book the match anyway.

 

All this and more, Tuesday night on GNN Total Sports. Be sure not to miss out!
