SWF: Sunday Nights Counting Lights - The Continuing Saga of KP Avatar

3rdStringPG · November 4, 2013

OOC - I'm seeing a lot of interesting questions for the Cream of the Crop, and I'm still waiting on the three questions from this diary's answer to the '90s Chicago Bulls, flaviooooo! <img alt="" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/smile.png.142cfa0a1cd2925c0463c1d00f499df2.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> Thanks for all those, and for the predictions so far. I'm currently toying around with going-forward formats. With two A-shows and two B-shows, the present detailed format of long match recaps and blow-by-blow transcripts of the promos would really cut into my free time. But if all goes well, I'll have Supreme TV up by Wednesday and Elite up by Friday.

Perhaps this will get flaviooooo in the mood to predict and submit his questions. <img alt="" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/wink.png.686f06e511ee1fbf6bdc7d82f6831e53.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> Apologies for the Ryback-ism on the article's title, and credit goes to jameschaos for making me hire Ben Williams on a short-term PPA deal...

FEED HIM MORE! SWF HIRES PART-TIME JOBBERS FOR YOUNG GIANT TO DESTROY

It's no secret that the SWF wants to build up BB Colossus as its next unstoppable monster heel, despite his youth (23 years old) and lack of offensive polish, even in comparison to currently-exiled-in-Rhode-Island (and kayfabe fired) Marat Khoklov. In order to do this, some jobbers would be needed to help him on the road to monster heeldom, and pad his undefeated (in singles) record. While the likes of Glenn Casey and KP Avatar are certainly in the cards, so are the following one-month hires - Ronald Green, Benjamin Stoner and Patrick Cudelli. Names sound a bit unfamiliar? Ronald Green is Canadian technical whiz Ron Greenhorn's real name, Benjamin Stoner is indie "bump machine" Ben Williams, and Patrick Cudelli is what's written on the birth certificate of fellow indie bumpster Happy Elwood. Cudelli had also wrestled in USPW as uber-jobber Patrick Cool, and is a close personal friend of Nicky Champion, dating back to their days in the USPW training camp.

Other IBMs (Indie Bump Machines) rumored to be coming to the SWF for short one-month spells, albeit after the brand split, include, but may not be limited to Kris Turkleton (Fearless Blue), Joseph Benning (Regular Joe), Ted Brady, Andy DeBottom (Paranoia), Extreme Deluxe, Dr. Michael O'Haire, Mark Smart, The Trademark (Thomas Morgan) and, perhaps further down the line when the winning streak is established, former TCW midcarder Ford Gumble.

Meanwhile, the SWF is still negotiating with Rip Chord as they hope to bring back the legend as an on-air authority figure following the good-as-confirmed brand split. Chord remains the top candidate to make a comeback to the SWF, as Sam Strong's lawyers have called a series of offers presented to him as "insultingly low", and Sam Keith remains committed to his duties as owner, CEO and head authority figure of Mid-Atlantic Wrestling. Some very wild rumors have pointed to JK Stallings Jr. as another possible hire, but his lack of camera skills may preclude him from winning the job, not to mention his absolute desire to stay away from the wrestling business to focus on his duties as StallCorp CEO.

OOC - And now, it's time to make that last call for predictions! Supreme TV could be up in 24 hours, and I must admit I'm really excited about the brand split. Thought 67 workers would be enough for three brands (two main event brands and one minor brand), and it is barely, but I'm considering adding a few more fairly over regional workers to fill out the midcard...and Danny Fonzarelli too.

SWF BRAND SPLIT - 67's OKAY, BUT DOES THE SWF NEED MORE?

By Brian Candido

Monday, December 2, 2013

By now, you are probably aware of the unconfirmed news that the SWF will be splitting into three brands right around Christmas. We have the Supreme brand, the Elite brand, and, making its big comeback several years after the actual promotion shut down, the DaVE brand. This could mean the breakup of several stables and tag teams, the formation of new alliances and the birth of new and exciting storylines to usher in the new year. But what's in it for the SWF?

Currently, the SWF has a total of 67 wrestlers on its main roster, including Ben (Bob) Casey and Giancarlo Giabroni, both of whom will not be re-signing once their PPA deals expire, and a few High Stakes rookies who may or may not return to the developmental territories for seasoning once they get eliminated. Wrestling savant Adam Ryland once said that the ideal number of wrestlers in a three-brand setup is 63, which makes 67 workers barely enough. Since we are firm believers in Mr. Ryland's postulations on wrestling promotion setups, and since it's his top-secret match grade algorithm that helps us grade those shows, we shall consider his word the closest thing to gospel and think of 67 workers as a solid, but unspectacular number of workers. Hard to believe - in the SWF's current configuration, 67 is well more than enough, and a number of lower-card guys have been eased out of television as a result, but we feel that 80 to 85 may be a more ideal number, or 70 to 75 if you don't include High Stakes rookies and contractual jabronis.

Having said all that, here are some workers that may receive consideration from the SWF, and there may be a few out of these workers who already have, if rumors are to be believed.

1. Kid Toma - The less troublesome of the two Samoan Wildboyz, TCW doesn't appear to be too interested in picking him up to rejoin Akima Brave. Injuries are a concern, though he could be a great fit for the SWF's rumored Shooting Star division, which would be featured on DaVE programming. One added concern for the SWF is Toma's conservative leanings - with the SWF turning up the risque meter on a daily basis, the current product may not appeal much to the high-flying Samoan.

2. Marc Speed - Tap, nap or SNAP! The technically-gifted Speed is a big name on the West Coast, the current CZCW Champion, and was, for a brief period of time, a contractual jobber in the SWF under his real name, Mark Hughes. He's a definite talent, and still fairly young at 30, but Richard Eisen's dislike for MMA-inspired workers could work against him. He's also quite poor on the mic, so that may be something else to consider.

3. Fox Mask - Another CZCW stalwart, Fox Mask has been all over the globe this past year. He's been in Pittsburgh (PSW), California (CZCW and IPW), Puerto Rico (FCW) and Japan (BHOTWG), but a move to the SWF could allow him to settle down and make a nice amount of money as a midcarder or lower midcarder. The no-brainer move here is to get him as a tag team partner for Masked Cougar, and rumors currently have him as a likely addition to the SWF's menagerie, which also includes The Undawater Union, the Alpha Dog Remo, Big Cat Brandon (okay, we cheated a bit there) and Wolf Hawkins (cheating again)!

4. Danny Fonzarelli - We know what you're thinking. D-Fonz is 37 years old, has never been a great worker, and is someone the SWF shouldn't consider adding to its list of workers pirated from the TCW this year. But with Robbie Retro gone, the SWF might need another '70s throwback shuckin' and jivin' in the ring. His contract comes up for renewal later on in the week, so we could see some movement from the SWF. Or probably not.

5. Bruce the Giant - Now this is interesting. His contract has just come up, but USPW has not even presented him with an initial offer. His knees are comparable to those of a 70-year-old man, and believe it or not - he's wrestled just once this year, a loss to Freddie Datsun at Liberty and Justice. As a former SWF World Champion, he'd probably be worth a look, and it would be a shame if the 30-day negotiation period passes without any contract offer from any of the major promotions.

6. Billy Russell - This talented MMA crossover has reportedly received some Supreme overtures, but here's why he may not be a good idea. A) Rick Eisen hates MMA. B) He's on the old side at 39. C) Bad backstage attitude.

7. [Redacted] - Because, why freaking not? DaVE is expected to emphasize on two things - high-flying cruiserweight action and bruising hardcore matches. [Redacted] won't help in the latter, but in the former, the Japanese superstar could really contribute if signed to a non-exclusive PPA deal, as rumored.

8. [Redacted] - Another Japanese star who's also reportedly gotten some attention from Supreme, and could bring some excitement to the Shooting Star (cruiserweight) division.

9. Hollywood Bret Starr - He's tried breaking into the SWF a few times before, but has gotten the Supreme door slammed in his face all those times due to attitude problems. Could the brand split be a potential vehicle for this third-generation worker to get another chance to impress creative? It could be, but those attitude problems may have turned the SWF off for good.

10. Madman Boone - Hey, if you're going to focus on both cruiserweights and hardcore wrestling in DaVE, why not get one of the most reckless, fearless individuals to lace up a pair of wrestling boots? Madman Boone's body is wrecked, and he's pushing 40, but he got a lot of love from the PSW faithful when he tried several times to defeat Big Smack Scott for the PSW Championship earlier in the year. And yes, he's still reckless and fearless, and still enters to the tune of one of Silverchair's more underrated tracks - the eponymous "Madman."

Chris Caulfield vs Brandon James. Ricky Dale Johnson vs Koshiro Ino, the former U.S. champ. And Jack Giedroyc vs Big Money Brandon James' business associate, J. Gordon Reed. Azaria - Speaking of Supreme Heavyweight, something happened to the former champ last Tuesday when Supreme TV went off the air. Michaels - And it served him right! Fry - Let's take you to the Supreme-Tron, where we see just how low The New Money Order is willing to go...and how much money Rich Money is willing to pay to twist justice in his favor. <blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="35955" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div><div style="text-align:center;">ANGLE - Gilmore Framed Up By The New Money Army (86/B+)</div> <div style="text-align:center;">http://i294.photobucket.com/albums/mm87/endshiftresign/TEW%202013/AngryGilmore_zpsdb22196d.jpg</div> The Supreme-Tron takes us back to last Tuesday, after the last Supreme TV, and Tom "Angry" Gilmore has taken a couple of police officers to a lavish-looking "party house", with several scantily-clad young women and scruffy-looking male hangers-on, also in their early-to-mid 20s, looking to be passed out on the couch. It's party central for The New Money Army - Sammy Bach can be seen partying in a long bathrobe and his wrestling trunks, while Drew Hawkins is dressed more modestly, wearing a black "Full Moon Fever" t-shirt (his official merch) and Rich Money dressed in a tailored suit sans necktie. Bryan Vessey is, like Hawkins, in t-shirt and jeans, knocking back a beer. Jack Bruce is nowhere to be seen, and it's safe to assume he's pleasuring a few groupies in one of the party house's rooms. Gilmore - There...those are the guys. Those monsters kidnapped my wife and God knows what else they did to her. Officer #1 (seemingly uninterested in what Gilmore has to say) - Everyone in here of legal age? Gilmore - I don't believe that's the point, officer. Those men took my wife by force and insisted that she partake of their alcohol, cigarettes and drugs! But in case you weren't listening the first time, I said BY FORCE... Officer #2 (in a very curt tone) - Yeah, we know. (to Officer #1) McGuffie, see any illegal drugs in the premises? Got everyone's identification? Officer #1 - Yes, Sarge. Everyone's of legal age, and by the looks of things, this is just another after-party with booze and women! (pauses) No weird deviant acts, no drugs...it's just the complainant's wife partying with her friends! Isn't that right, Drew? <div style="text-align:center;">http://i294.photobucket.com/albums/mm87/endshiftresign/TEW%202013/WolfHawkins_zpse68bca38.jpghttp://i294.photobucket.com/albums/mm87/endshiftresign/TEW%202013/Jessie.jpg</div> Drew Hawkins answers the police officers' questions in his usual cocky tone while Jessie finally appears, looking spaced out, totally not like her usual self. Hawkins (wearing a very smug grin) - Yes, Officer. Mrs. Gilmore is a very good friend of ours, and I think what you have here is a jealous, paranoid husband who doesn't want to show his wife a good time! Gilmore - YOU DON'T GIVE ME THAT S---, HAWKINS!!!! What you've done is take my wife against her will, ply her with alcohol and drugs... Jessie (sounding drugged, almost zombie-like) - On the contrary, Tom. No drugs here. (downs a can of Budweiser in front of her straight-edge husband) Want a beer, honey? Gilmore (angrily knocking the beer out of his wife's hands as she remains nearly catatonic) - YOU GET THAT FOUL LIQUID AWAY FROM YOUR MOUTH, JESSIE!!!! THIS IS NOT YOU, THIS PARTY IS NOT YOU, AND YOU ARE COMING WITH ME RIGHT NOW!!!!! THIS IS NOT YOU!!!! (shakes Jessie violently) Snap out of it, Jessica...I know what people like these New Money Army punks are like... Jessie (still sounding lifeless) - Stop it, Tom...you're hurting me... Having seen enough, Tom "Angry" Gilmore slaps his wife in the face, sending her reeling to the ground and seemingly coming to her senses. Gilmore - I'm sorry, Jessie...I didn't mean to do that... (looking at his hands) But I had to... Hawkins - Well Officers, it looks like you've got a wifebeater in your custody right now! The New Money Army does not stand for spousal abuse, and for that disgusting act, Tom...I think these here cops ought to put you away in the slammer! Officer #2 (flashing a smug grin of his own, turning to Gilmore) - You had to slap your wife in the face. I get it. (pauses) So she goes out partying with a group of men who are upright and law-abiding citizens who like to have a beer or two after their wrestling show. And you, being the jealous, paranoid, ABUSIVE husband that you are, had to slap her in the face to show her who's boss! (shakes his head) You're under arrest, Mr. Gilmore. Jessie - Officer, it's okay. Tom's right. (holding her cheek) He's not like that at all. It was just a reaction to seeing me...drugged...out of it...somebody I'm not...and it worked. You don't have to arrest him, Officers. We're going home. Officer #1 - You're going to an abused women's shelter, Mrs. Gilmore, while your husband...is headed off to our holding cell for the evening! You don't have to tolerate abusive pigs such as your husband. (to Gilmore) You better pray those charges get dropped on you somehow. (to Officer #2) Sarge! Shall we call for backup? Officer #2 - I don't think that would be necessary. (to Hawkins) Drew? Go for it. And thanks for the little...how shall we put it...unofficial performance bonus. Hawkins (winking his eye) - Aw, it was nothing. Rich Money makes sure we live comfortably, so that's just chump change. As for THIS chump... Having said that, Hawkins knocks Gilmore out with the Full Moon Rising as the two corrupt cops on the take watch and laugh. That allows them to cart Gilmore away and shove him to the back of their police car as Jessie watches with concern.</div></blockquote> <blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="35955" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div><div style="text-align:center;">ANGLE - Bruce and Money Issue Open Challenge (95/A)</div> <div style="text-align:center;">http://i294.photobucket.com/albums/mm87/endshiftresign/TEW%202013/JackBruce_alt12jt_zps6f460ee6.jpghttp://i294.photobucket.com/albums/mm87/endshiftresign/TEW%202013/RichMoney_zps8b6695dd.jpg</div> After the video stops playing on the Supreme-Tron, we now see Jack Bruce and Rich Money in the ring, ready to gloat and boast in another promo, albeit minus the rest of The New Money Army. The two men stand in silence as the crowd at Providence, clearly unable to believe that these two one-time bitter rivals are now seemingly the best of friends, and working with the same three men from TCW who seek to take the SWF over with their "conquer and divide" strategy. Finally unable to take their disgust, some fans start a "GET A ROOM!" jeer at the Bruce and Money duo. J. Bruce - Tough crowd we got here tonight, huh, Rich? Perhaps they want to see the Original Interlopers, or perhaps, have us introduce more New Money Army members. (pauses) Uh-uh-uh! Invite only! Money - Those MARKS have long stopped getting to me. It's going to be an adjustment process, but I know you're Money enough to persevere and emerge a better man AND an even worthier champion. J. Bruce (acknowledging the persistent jeers of "GET A ROOM!") - Hey, if Rich and myself get a room, that's one more room than most of you fat, pimple-faced virgin DORKS will ever get! But you know that's not gonna happen, right? Because tonight, the Cream of the Crop is gonna show a pretty lady or two just what SHOW-TAAAAAAAAHHHHHHMMMMMMMM is all about! (pauses) We're talkin' all-night, baby, your Eveready Lovin' Man with all the stamina of the Energizer Bunny! Up, down, up, down, from sun-up to sundown, or in my case, the other way around, I'm gonna show a fresh new batch of Brucettes here at Providence why my old bandmates used to call me the Midnight to Six Man! And those pretty ladies need not worry, because unlike some people, namely a certain egghead who spent a couple nights in a Kansas City jail cell, I know how to treat 'em right. Money (smiling wryly, just as arrogant as Bruce but more low-key when it comes to talk of women, and more focused on the goals of his New Money Army in the SWF) - It's been a while since we last teamed up, Jack. And I'm sure these MARKS know what a pain it was for me to tag with you back in the day. But with our common goal of CONQUERING AND DIVIDING having been agreed upon, I think it would be a very Money thing to do if we tested that old chemistry once again against the best the SWF thinks it can offer. Bruce and Money get the crowd irate by dissing practically every SWF main eventer and upper midcarder who's not part of The New Money Army, and, in effect, issue an open challenge to any two of these men for tonight's main event. Bruce and Money's callous stance and outright contempt of anyone in the SWF who isn't a New Money Army or Bobby Bruce Bonanza member elicits loud boos from the audience, but thankfully, those boos turn into cheers when Christian Faith and Nicky Champion emerge from the locker room to answer the challenge.</div></blockquote> <blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="35955" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div><div style="text-align:center;">ANGLE - Faith and Champion Answer Bruce and Money Challenge (75/B-)</div> <div style="text-align:center;">http://i294.photobucket.com/albums/mm87/endshiftresign/TEW%202013/ChristianFaith_alt4jt_zpscf122805.jpghttp://i294.photobucket.com/albums/mm87/endshiftresign/TEW%202013/NickyChampion_jhd3_zps6393cde3.jpg</div> The "speak softly, carry a big stick" Christian Faith and his amped-up, over-the-top friend Nicky Champion have accepted Bruce and Money's challenge. Faith tells Bruce that if he knew he had planned to betray the Men Unda Pressure at some point in the future, he would have shown even more of an effort at Under Control than he already did, and says that's his motivation for making a rare ring appearance in his current state of semi-retirement. Unfortunately for Faith, Bruce and Money twist his words around, calling him "lazier than Remo" when he talks about showing more effort, and saying that Commissioners, even acting ones, aren't supposed to wrestle lest there be a conflict of interest. Champion sticks up for Faith, saying that the only conflict of interest he's been seeing is The New Money Army's favorite referee Sam Sparrow twisting match results in the faction's favor. He says that a win tonight will be the best form of redemption for him after his extra-early exit at the Let the Games Begin three-way, and a great way to prepare him for Christmas Clash, where, at the Supreme Heavyweight Scramble...

He openly questions Faith's decision to put him in a qualifying match instead of making him an automatic fourth qualifier for the Supreme Heavyweight Scramble Match at Christmas Clash. James - Yes, I was absolutely serious about Christian Faith playing his games of brinkmanship by giving The New Money Army the proverbial mile after they had taken an inch. And it doesn't matter that he and Mr. Champion have accepted Messrs. Bruce and Money's challenge. It is all part of his grander plan to lavish more attention on The New Money Army and put them front row center as far as the SWF's roster is concerned. (pauses) As the uncrowned champion of my choosing, I should be given my just desserts. I do not need to be in the ring once again with that ruffian Chris Caulfield and qualifying for something I should outright qualify for.

Anderson - Dawn's still in Hollywood, Chris, so if you ever need someone to stand in your corner... Caulfield - What part of "I'm not interested" do you not understand? Anderson - And what part of "hardcore" do YOU understand, Chris? Caulfield - I don't think you realize whom you're speaking to. I AM the Hardcore American, Chris Caulfield. I've been hardcore since the bingo hall days of DaVE, been hardcore in the Southeast when Supreme and the competition wouldn't touch me with a ten-foot pole. I've lived by the chair and died by the chair, COUNTLESS TIMES OVER, and by the looks of things, you really ARE looking for a hardcore match of some sorts. Anderson (holding up his hands) - Easy there, Chris. See, that's the kind of aggression that I want to see from you. Valiant learned that kind of aggression and look what happened - it transcended his Mom, apple pie and the Red, White and Blue image of his. Caulfield - But at what price? His girlfriend? Anderson (ignoring Caulfield) - As for you...I think that aggression's gonna help you transcend religious barriers. Caulfield - Put my religious beliefs in the mix again, John, and I'm headin' off to Christian's office and DEMANDING that he put you in a hardcore match with the last person you wanna meet in that type of a match! ME! Anderson - God loves a Hardcore American. So does Buddha. Mohammed. Vishnu. Ganesh. And especially Shiva. (pauses) But let's think about the here and now. You've got a match against Brandon James. Yeah, you've beat him once before, but these are regular rules. You're a hardcore fish out of water, and that's where a John Anderson would come in. Caulfield - In Hardcore America, there's no need for a John Anderson to ever come in. Now I'll ask you kindly...to please. Shut the eff up or have a taste of the Danger Drop. Anderson - Dropping rhymes like Jack Bruce would. I like that. But the word "eff"...you hear Steve Frehley utter it in its actual form and he doesn't get punished. Why? Because the TV execs have bigger things to worry about...like those two Eros Squad ingrates and their derivative director. I helped them be themselves...and they repay me by hookin' up with that floozie co-star of theirs who doesn't know s--- about managing an SWF Superstar. But goin' back to you, Chris...you just disappointed me by thinking about your God's commandments and abbreviating THAT word. It's time you became real...and did what you feel! Caulfield - Yeah? What if I feel like doing this? Having had enough of Anderson's badgering, Caulfield does as he promised and Danger Drops the Devil's Advocate on the locker room floor!

Having said that, Giedroyc stresses to Azaria that there are no egos within the Pep Rally stable - a common boast among stables, but one Pep Rally can definitely back up. Giedroyc also has choice words for J. Gordon Reed, his opponent in tonight's Beat the Clock qualifier for the Supreme Heavyweight Scramble... Giedroyc - You can call yourself John Greed or J. Gordon Reed, dress in a priest's robes while preaching the virtues of greed or wear a suit and tie and emphasize how good it is to be greedy over money.

Gordon Reed, Rodney Ekuma and BB Colossus - Brandon James can't seem to put Chris Caulfield away at the seven-minute mark to put the pressure on earlier winner Ricky Dale Johnson. Not even Peter Michaels (who's still homering for James) is of much help, as Jez McArthuer ignores his protests against what he claims is a slow count off a Big Money Move. McArthuer finally has it with The Chase Agency's myriad distractions and other shenanigans and tells all of them to beat it at around 7:30 in the match. After this, Caulfield capitalizes, landing a Danger Drop at 9:30. As he covers James, John Anderson (who had been guest-commentating) starts taunting him from the announce table, and as Caulfield and Anderson argue (with Jez Mac's back turned), James recovers and floors Caulfield with a belly-to-back suplex, getting the three-count.

Gordon Reed and Emma Chase are discussing? Michaels - Whatever it is, it's none of your business, Jason. But if I were Gordon, I'd take my sweet time in punishing Jack Giedroyc and make sure I win in more than 10:20. You've got to respect your superiors in business. Fry - To you, Peter, they're all equals. You've still got that crusade of yours to promote The Chase Agency as the mightiest faction in the SWF. Michaels (neither confirming nor denying what Fry had said) - Be that as it may, The Chase Agency may not be the mightiest. And that's because Jack Bruce did the right thing and disassociated himself from that popularity leech Tom Gilmore while, at the same time, bringing three certified talents from the competition to Supreme and burying the hatchet with those talents' secret mentor, Rich Money. But since Jack Bruce is also a bad role model, I still see The Chase Agency as the embodiment of what wrestling is supposed to be all about. As respected businessmen, they're true class acts. And as never-say-die, old-school wrestlers, they're an asset to the SWF. I rest my case. Fry - Spoken like a true Chase Agency homer, right down to Brandon James' "be that as it may." <blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="35955" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div><div style="text-align:center;">Jack Giedroyc (w/Valiant) vs J.

But that's easier said than done, as Jack Giedroyc controls a good part of the match and seems to have a counter for every one of Reed's moves. Much to Ms. Chase's chagrin, an attempt at the Stock Market Crash at 8:10 results in Giedroyc powering out at two, and Reed gets surprised while running the ropes, as the No-BS Brummie Crashes On...the right way. Giedroyc wins this one with over half a minute to spare, and Brandon James, who's briefly seen watching the action backstage with Rodney Ekuma and BB Colossus, can't believe Giedroyc has beaten the clock.

Money's arrival happens to be quite counterproductive, as that actually inspires Remo to really punish Anderson. He counters a Northern Lights suplex attempt at around 10:10, and in less than a minute, Remo is able to make a strong comeback after looking bad from the seventh to tenth minutes. Rich Money leaves the announce table to break up a cover attempt following a Lumbar Puncture, but there's nothing he can do to stop Remo from landing the big boot to the gut and taking Anderson out with the Destroyer at a little past 15 minutes.

That wife-beatin' Darling of the Dirt Sheets Tom Gilmore. (laughs again) There's also the action hero-wannabe Eric Eisen, his fair-weather lackey and Hangers-On Hall of Fame charter member Squeeky McClean, and at the present, a man so boring no matter what he does that his parents should have named him Valium. Yes, I know people have called him that before. Why am I not surprised? B. Vessey - You may have the title now, Mr. Excitement, but nothing in your back-to-basics arsenal could hold a candle to what I've got. Hawkins - That's Mr. All-Everything, Bryan Vessey. A man of a few words...and a man of hundreds of moves. He's going to make the North American title mean something for the FIRST TIME in its 17-year history.

The three New Money Army members continue boasting among themselves about how their arrival has shaken up the SWF like it's never been shaken up before, but the conversation soon shifts to Sammy Bach and the United States title he'll be fighting for at Christmas Clash. Bach - So Des Davids is the first American to win the United States title. Big f---in' deal.

He also rants about Eros Squad - Adam Newtron and Jack Hoffs - calling them a "sophomoric attempt to branch out to a more adult audience," and not the kind of movie stars SWF Studios should be promoting.

With Faith and Money subtly calling the match, they both allow for a slow build and a lot of open offense with some skillful story-telling, even if it's a familiar one - Faith getting isolated by Bruce and Money. Sam Sparrow, who's refereeing this match and supposed to be playing it straight lest he get punished by Faith, does what he could to allow Bruce and Money to cheat, but despite all that, Faith recovers starting at 13:00, as his Faith-Up knocks both Bruce and Money out - Machine Gun Faith Hammers to legal man Bruce, then a dropkick on Money as he crashes from the ring apron, nearly bumping on the announce table!

Realizing he's lost control of the match, Sparrow calls for the bell, disqualifying both sides and prompting a lecture from Money.

OOC - High Stakes will be posted in a bit, but in the meantime, here's a little commercial for the upcoming third season. Short, simple, and a whole lot more entertaining (and maybe a whole lot more risque) than the TV show the commercial is inspired by. <img alt="" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/wink.png.686f06e511ee1fbf6bdc7d82f6831e53.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" />

EDIT - Why the Brady Bunch as the commercial's theme? Dunno...easy answer is because I suddenly thought of the show while working. But if you come to think of it, the Brady Bunch's concept of a widower marrying a divorcee and their respective kids coexisting as siblings does have some affinity with Season 3's concept - Team USA and Team International, each with two faces and heels, with the mentors being a equal mix of faces and heels themselves.

<div style="text-align:center;">Here's the story of eight more rookies...

SWF HIGH STAKES SEASON 3

PREMIERES THURSDAY, DECEMBER 19, 2013 ON USA SPORTS 1</div>

3rdStringPG · November 6, 2013

SWF High Stakes Lundholm Gym (New Hampshire, New England) Wednesday, December 4, 2013 CAST: (Rookie - Mentor) Alan Parent - John Anderson (ELIMINATED) Casey Valentine - Franklin D. Huggins III Erick Leigh - Des Davids (ELIMINATED) Jacob Jett - Angry Gilmore Justin Sensitive - 24/7 Partay Dudez Nick "The Architect" Wright - Jellyfish Josh (ELIMINATED) Rob "Masked Cougar" Hayes - Elmo Benson Rodney Ekuma - Nicky Champion (ELIMINATED) <div style="text-align:center;">ANGLE - Cougar Wins Mentor's Poll (83/B)</div> Rory McCallum is in the ring and announces a surprising result for the Mentor's Poll - after all those weeks of Jacob Jett coming out on top, Masked Cougar has zoomed to the number one spot, followed by Jett, Casey Valentine and Justin Sensitive. McCallum says that Jett had lost a bit of focus when Tom "Angry" Gilmore was unavailable to mentor him, but still has a fighting chance of winning Season 2. Valentine, on the other hand, slipped back because of his dubious tactics, while Sensitive seems to be "mailing it in." Cougar, according to McCallum, impressed the mentors most for being the "most improved" rookie in just about every area. Valentine, ever the show-stealer, grabs the mic from McCallum and says that the other three rookies don't want to win it as much as he does, and that he'll walk away as Season 2 champ by any means necessary. McCallum angrily seizes the mic back and continues his introduction for tonight's show by announcing tonight's veteran opponents for the rookies will all be Season 1 mentors. MENTOR'S POLL WINNER - Masked Cougar. Cougar gets three immunity points. <div style="text-align:center;">ANGLE - Renluenn Vignette (19/E)</div> Want to meet another member of Team USA for Season 3 of High Stakes? Here's someone who probably thinks Dwight Eisenhower is still president and that today's cars lack fins at the back - Davie Renluenn, from Philadelphia, PA, also known as "Plato Stark" in RIPW. (OOC - Thanks to <a href="http://www.daddy-o.us/slang.htm" rel="external nofollow">http://www.daddy-o.us/slang.htm</a> for Mr. Renluenn's vocabulary.) Renluenn - Well, how's it goin', daddy-o? My name is Davie Renluenn - that's D-A-V-I-E, R-E-N-L-U-E-N-N. But you can call me Dutch, an ode to my heritage. Ain't no one have that nickname anymore, and you wanna know why? Because the '50s are over, dad! Ain't that a real bringdown? Tell you somethin'. I'm part of this bash they call High Stakes. Third season, cat, can you dig that? And they've got me stuck with a bunch of grody freams representin' the land that we love, the USA and all its 48 states. What, you tellin' me they got 50? Damn! (pauses) What does Davie "Dutch" Renluenn hafta offer Team USA? Well, I got the knuckle sandwich, I got my forward USSR legsweep, a real kookie move if you ask me, and I got the jets to emerge as the ace of Team USA (pointing to his head). Be in orbit, SWF Galaxy. Davie "Dutch" Renluenn has arrived, and so have the '50s. <div style="text-align:center;">Adam Newtron (w/Jack Hoffs) vs Justin Sensitive (w/24/7 Partay Dudez) (64/C)</div> Justin Sensitive, just as Rory McCallum had said earlier, seems to be coasting, and he pays for it repeatedly with several false Adam Newtron finishes. "Simply powering out at two won't do!", says Peter Michaels. After a brief rally from Sensitive off a Mainstream distraction, Newtron catches Sensitive with a surprise Huge Electron and wins this match in little past six minutes. WINNER - Newtron in 6:11 <div style="text-align:center;">ANGLE - High Stakes Can You Beat Pete? Challenge (70/C+)</div> This High Stakes challenge is a trivia contest, where the contestants have one minute to get as many SWF trivia questions correct as they could. This is the "Beat Pete" challenge because Peter Michaels' score is the one to beat, and if anyone does, they get one immunity point as an added bonus. For starters, Rory McCallum gives Michaels his category, and it's Classic SWF. He goes four-for-four in one minute, answering 1981 as the first year of Supreme Challenge, Micky Starr as the longest-reigning World Heavyweight champ in history, Sheik Ali-Al Whistler as the person Christian Faith defeated at the first When Hell Freezes Over cage match, and Greenwalt Dome as the site of Supreme Challenge VI, where Sam Strong defeated Rip Chord in a 60-minute Iron Man Match (with 14-minute overtime) one fall to none for the SWF World Heavyweight Championship. So, can anyone beat Pete? Here are the results: 1. Masked Cougar (5/5) - North American Champions. Nemesis is first-ever champ, six men have won the title three times, first Valiant vs Rogue title match was at The World is Watching 2011, Tom Gilmore first won title at Break Like the Wind 2002, Black Hat Bailey was first three-time champ. All correct. 2. Justin Sensitive (3/4) - Supreme Challenge. There have been 33 Supreme Challenges (CORRECT), Sam Keith vs Christian Faith was main event of SC17 (CORRECT), Jack Bruce beat Eric Eisen for World title at SC30 (CORRECT), first-ever SC main event in 1981 was Sam Strong vs some other old guy (INCORRECT). 3. Jacob Jett (2/4) - Finishers. Nicky Champion - Hawkeye Hammer (CORRECT), Greg and Matthew Keith - those guys always lose, don't they? (INCORRECT), Dread - Dreadbomb (INCORRECT), Joe Sexy - One Night Stand (CORRECT). 4. Casey Valentine - N/A - Valentine declined to enter challenge, saying that nobody cares about the SWF's past when someone like him is the present. CHALLENGE WINNER - Masked Cougar. Cougar gets four immunity points (3+1 for Beating Pete). <div style="text-align:center;">ANGLE - Jett Gets Ready (16/F)</div> <div style="text-align:center;">Jacob Jett (w/Tom "Angry" Gilmore) and Masked Cougar (w/Elmo Benson) vs The Awesomeness (w/Alanis Springsteen) © - non-title match (60/C-)</div> The announcers talk about how Masked Cougar has tied Casey Valentine for second in immunity points in just one night, and how he just might pull away if the Cougar/Jacob Jett duo upsets The Awesomeness - beating a veteran(s) for tonight is worth three immunity points instead of one. While Cougar and Jett work well as a team and dazzle the fans with their aerial maneuvers, The Awesomeness' cheating pays off in the end, as Alanis Springsteen argues with Shane Stones and Huey Cannonball and Jefferson Stardust Shock and Awe Cougar with a chair as a prop. Stardust gets the chair out right in the nick of time as Stones counts one, two, three. WINNERS - The Awesomeness in 6:36 <div style="text-align:center;">James Prudence vs Casey Valentine (w/Franklin D. Huggins III) (54/D)</div> "Casey Valentine is really getting on my nerves," complains Katie Cameron as the arrogant second-generation star struggles for most of the match against James Prudence, who mentored Jimi Adams (High Flyin' Hawaiian) in Season 1. Prudence has several chances to end the match early - a Prudential Pain Plan at 2:20 and a Surf's Up at 4:30 both failing to put Valentine away. At 6:30, Valentine continues to struggle, but thanks to Franklin Huggins' taunting of Prudence about how The Can-Am Animals are headed to the Tag Team Turmoil match at Christmas Clash and The Fly Boys are not, Valentine is able to land a Deep Impact on Prudence and pick up the cheap win, and three immunity points. WINNER - Valentine in 7:06. Casey Valentine gets three immunity points for defeating a veteran. <div style="text-align:center;">ANGLE - Valentine Celebrates (20/E)</div> While Katie Cameron and Jerry Eisen are both upset over Casey Valentine's highly illegal and dubious win, Peter Michaels says that Valentine is right - no one else is as hungry for a guaranteed SWF contract plus a title shot as he is. Eisen counters that no one else is as dishonest as Valentine is, and as the rookie yells insults at the announcers, Eisen comments that it will be "deliciously ironic" if Valentine gets eliminated tonight, mere days before the guest hosting spot on SWF Elite he won a couple episodes ago. <div style="text-align:center;">ANGLE - High Stakes Password Challenge (61/C-)</div> Another non-physical challenge for the Final Four of High Stakes Season 2, this challenge's objective is for the rookies to help their mentors guess as many wrestlers as possible within a 30-second time frame. Rookies can say a number of words to describe the wrestler, or pantomime the wrestler's signature actions, but not his name nor other obvious clues, depending on whom he is. Mentioning those forbidden words would reset the rookie's points to zero. And the results are: 1. Jacob Jett/Tom Gilmore - 3 (Gilmore notably ends this by screaming "JACK BRUCE!!!!" after Jett says the word "Showtime" and pantomimes Bruce's "arms raised in a V", windmill air guitar entrance.) 2. Casey Valentine/Franklin Huggins - 2 (Of course, Eric Eisen's name has to be among the wrestlers. The clues Valentine gives to Huggins include "former World champ", "more than enough" and "action hero.") 2. Justin Sensitive/Mainstream - 2 (The heels tie for second place with Sensitive unique in his clues as he relays them all in the form of dance moves or singing.) 4. Masked Cougar/Elmo Benson - 0 (Unfortunately, Cougar inadvertently says the forbidden word(s) "He has Faith" when describing Christian Faith, which resets the score from two to zero in the dying seconds.) By winning this challenge, Jett effectively becomes immune from elimination tonight with a total of 23 points to Valentine's 19, Cougar's 16 and Sensitive's 11. CHALLENGE WINNER - Jacob Jett, three immunity points. <div style="text-align:center;">ANGLE - Hoffs Rants About McClean (65/C)</div> Tonight's High Stakes episode will close with two Season 1 mentors "radically changed" since the first season. Back then, Jack Hoffs was Jungle Lord, a wildman who could barely speak English, while Squeeky McClean was still aligned with Rich Money as part of The Almighty Dollar. Now Hoffs is one half of the adult film star tag team Eros Squad, while McClean is struggling in tag competition as part of 100% Sneaky. Before entering the ring, Hoffs taunts Squeeky, saying that "straight edge will never be a match for well-hung," among other risque comments. <div style="text-align:center;">Jack Hoffs (w/Adam Newtron) vs Squeeky McClean (w/Richie Pangrazzio Jr.) (67/C+)</div> As yet another no-bearing singles match between two men who don't really have a feud, the purpose, once again, is to end the show with some quality wrestling. Jack Hoffs, who has recently caused a stink complaining to the dirt sheets about his new gimmick and lack of push, appears to be phoning it in, but McClean, always a class act, gamely calls the match while displaying his usual expertise in ring psychology. Squeeky tries hard, nearly going over with a Stain Removal at the six-minute mark, but Hoffs comes back adeptly and, following a vertical suplex, climbs the top rope for the Jungle Jack-You-Later to win the match. WINNER - Hoffs in 8:33 <div style="text-align:center;">ANGLE - High Stakes Elimination (78/B)</div> All four rookies are in the ring as Rory McCallum assesses their performance as of late. Jacob Jett, having accumulated the most immunity points, gets a free pass. Justin Sensitive, according to McCallum, was creative in the Password Challenge, but has continued to disappoint with his lack of effort. Casey Valentine's cockiness remains untamed, and McCallum says he wasn't impressed with how he upset James Prudence. Finally, Masked Cougar is told that he seems to lack a certain desire to "want the ball", meaning he suffers in clutch situations. Still, there's no denying how much he's improved in recent weeks. Having said all that, McCallum announces that based on the mentors' combined votes, Justin Sensitive will be eliminated, leaving Jett, Valentine and Cougar to compete for the big one next week. Sensitive tells McCallum that losing High Stakes won't be the end of Justin Sensitive in the SWF. One day, he says, he won't just be on top of the Billboard charts, but on top of the SWF world with the rest of the Partay Dudez. After two commands to "hit the music", Sensitive and the Partay Dudez head back to the locker room, dancing and strutting and singing along not to the Dudez's ring music, but rather predictably to N'Sync's "Bye Bye Bye." HIGH STAKES SEASON TWO STANDINGS (WEEK 12): Casey Valentine - 7-5 Jacob Jett - 5-6 Masked Cougar - 5-7 Justin Sensitive - 7-5 (ELIMINATED - WEEK 12) Alan Parent - 2-9 (ELIMINATED - WEEK 10) The Architect - 4-5 (ELIMINATED - WEEK 9) Rodney Ekuma - 3-4 (ELIMINATED - WEEK 7) Erick Leigh - 1-5 (ELIMINATED - WEEK 6) IMMUNITY POINTS AS OF WEEK 12 (FINAL): Jacob Jett - 23 Casey Valentine - 19 Masked Cougar - 16 Justin Sensitive - 11 (ELIMINATED) Nick "The Architect" Wright - 7 (ELIMINATED) Alan Parent - 4 (ELIMINATED) Rodney Ekuma - 4 (ELIMINATED) Erick Leigh - 2 (ELIMINATED) <blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="35955" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div>Overall Grade - 71/C+ All rookies except Masked Cougar were used too much.

OOC - So probably you're wondering..."Hey 3rdStringPG, where are the KP backstage segments?" They'll be back really soon; as you can see I'm making sure I have all my ducks in a row prior to the brand split - this is going to be my first try at such in close to a year playing TEW. So with that said, we'll have one backstage segment (hey, it's KP's A-show debut in 2-on-2 tag competition...on Elite!), but before that, here's another PWH article for your enjoyment, with bonus news on the new TCW hire - thou shalt not change thy answers on the predictions! <img alt="" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/wink.png.686f06e511ee1fbf6bdc7d82f6831e53.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" />

BREAKING - EISAKU HOSHINO TO REMAIN IN RIPW, GOLDWORTHY SIGNS WITH SWF

By Pro Wrestling Hits Staff

Thursday, December 5, 2013

<div style="text-align:center;">http://i294.photobucket.com/albums/mm87/endshiftresign/TEW%202013/EisakuHoshino_zpsf99138ce.jpg</div>

Chances are you saw the recent High Stakes Season 3 hype commercial. Yeah, that one, with the Brady Bunch theme parody (performed by the SWF house band with Kristen Pearce, Ana Garcia, Justin Sensitive and Calum on vocals) and all eight rookies in the Brady Bunch squares arrangement. Well, you can cross out the bottom left guy in that ad, because our sources say that Eisaku Hoshino won't be trotting out as mentor Koshiro Ino's kayfabe brother/protege after all.

"Let's be honest here," said our source. "Eisaku's 39, his grasp of the English language is even more limited than Marat's (Khoklov), and at this point in his career, it's probably best that he focuses on training the youngsters at RIPW. We believe there may be an eleventh-hour hire replacing Eisaku as the fourth member of Team International." Just who this eleventh-hour hire would be is unknown, but our sources add that Hoshino's replacement may be Canadian or European. Currently lined up for Team International are Swoop McCarthy, El Mitico Jr. and Gino Montero, while Team USA is made up of Erik Strong, Davie Renluenn (Plato Stark in RIPW), Anthony Mann (Ant Man) and Marc Speed.

Meanwhile, yet another TCW worker has made his way to Supreme, but this time, it's not a wrestler. Floyd "The Fast Buck" Goldworthy won't be managing the mic-poor American Buffalo anymore, because he's headed to the SWF after signing a four-year deal with the company. He is expected to serve as a "brain"-type manager not unlike Louis "Louie the Worm" Williams, possibly as part of The New Money Army's Supreme or Elite divisions.

"We are pleased to announce the hiring of veteran manager Floyd Goldworthy," read the official statement on SWF.com. "Floyd's ability to captivate audiences with his in-ring and backstage spiels makes him a great addition to the company, and a major player in future storylines. Floyd will begin working with the SWF in January 2014, following the expiry of his contract with Total Championship Wrestling Corp."

Thank god. I was wondering why the 39 year old Hoshino was participating in this. Was going to ask if he was a regen but at the time I couldn't remember they were called regen and couldn't look it up on my phone.

If you want a young japanese wrestler then Tsurayuki Kamachi could work. I like to use this render and have him be a rebel/degenerate/punk in a country where tradition is everything. Edit: and his bother in crime Hitomaro Suzuki

I had planned to include Hoshino in High Stakes Season 3 for a while, sort of the Marty Wright (Boogeyman) of the group in the sense that he's the oldest guy by about a decade, but yeah. Let's leave High Stakes to the young guys. We should find out soon who Hoshino's replacement would be, and I'll probably make that into a bonus question for the Uprising prediction card. As for young Japanese workers, I already got a couple set to debut slightly before the brand split, and set to really get exposure as part of the cruiserweight division on the DaVE brand. <img alt=";)" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/wink.png.686f06e511ee1fbf6bdc7d82f6831e53.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> Though I'll keep your suggestion in mind. As stated on the news article, Hoshino's replacement will (most likely) be Canadian or European.

OOC - And in another case of short memory, I forgot that Casey Valentine was supposed to guest host Supreme TV after he won a challenge in Week 10. Changed that to Elite's debut episode, which is why he's with the rest of the main roster. And his girlfriend Eve Runcord. And Eve's coworker, who will be part of the Season 3 cast of High Stakes.

Coliseo Ruben Rodriguez (Puerto Rico)

5:30 p.m.

Okay, so maybe I was wrong about Erik Strong being the only guy with a gimmick on the next season of High Stakes. Davie Renluenn was the other, and his gimmick was that of a '50s greaser, to the point that he actually thinks America has 48 states and that he refers to Russia as the USSR. This I could say about Davie - he asks a lot of questions. And a lot of the questions seemed to be about Richard Eisen, who didn't fly out to Puerto Rico for the taping of SWF Elite's debut episode.

<div style="text-align:center;">http://i294.photobucket.com/albums/mm87/endshiftresign/TEW%202013/DavieRenluenn_zps31a359dc.jpg</div>

"So, Kirk...you've been working in the SWF for nearly a year. And this is the first time you'll be on a primary television show..."

"Actually the second. First was just a quick appearance in a 15-man battle royal," I replied, wondering how Davie knew KP stood for Kirk Patrick, when Casey Valentine, whom he was apparently friends with, introduced me as KP. Casey was here tonight to guest-host Elite, as a prize for his winning a promo challenge a couple weeks back.

"You'll have to pardon me," said Davie. "Anyway, how do pushes work here? I know what a push is, but how does he determine who gets it and who doesn't? Sorry if I'm blunt, but you don't have much of a push as I see it. Four wins and 37 losses, including non-televised matches?"

"Mr. Eisen looks at a lot of things," I said. "But basically, pushes here work like they do in other promotions, like RIPW. Mr. Eisen evaluates whether a new worker is established in his previous company. For guys like BB Colossus, he gives them a push because they're big and intimidating, and look unstoppable. He gives Mainstream and Stevie a push because they're talented wrestlers who have advanced skills for their age, while at the same time having made a name for themselves in the indies. On the other hand, a guy like Glenn Casey..."

"KC Glenn?"

"Yes, they're the same person. KC doesn't get much of a push because he's debuting in the SWF without the benefit of starting in the indies. His lack of mic skills and his thick Southern accent also contributes to his lack of a push. That's a very rare exception, because KC is REALLY talented in the ring. As for me? I admit I'm not a good worker, but I can take a bump. That's why I lose almost all of the time."

"A bump?"

"I can look good while getting beaten up." Man, this Davie Renluenn guy was a huge mark, while at the same time very strange. Didn't know the jargon, but seemed to have an academic view of the SWF's roster. It was almost as if he read up on all of us, calling people like Paul Huntingdon "Geoff" because his real name is Geoffrey Paulson, and calling me "Kirk." And speaking of what's in a name...

<div style="text-align:center;">http://i294.photobucket.com/albums/mm87/endshiftresign/TEW%202013/EveRuncord_zps707fe7e6.jpg</div>

"Hey, Ben! How are you and KP getting along?"

Davie's face turned beet-red as Eve Runcord, whom he knew from developmental, called him by another man's name. Now this was getting strange. I knew Davie Renluenn as Plato Stark in RIPW, and as is the custom when you're new in the locker room, he introduced himself as Davie, which, we all assumed, was his real name. I quickly excused myself from my conversation with Davie, Ben, Plato or whatever he wanted to be called, and immediately sought out Casey Valentine, Eve's boyfriend and tonight's Elite guest host/commentator.

<div style="text-align:center;">http://i294.photobucket.com/albums/mm87/endshiftresign/TEW%202013/CaseyValentine_zpsca408bd5.jpg</div>

"What's going on, Case? That friend of yours...that Davie Renluenn who'll be part of High Stakes Season 3...what's the deal with him? First, he asks me all these strange questions. Then Eve calls him by some other name, and he starts acting defensive and stuff with his face turning red."

"Oh, it's nothing," said Casey, sounding very unperturbed. He then moved closer to me and lowered his voice to a near-whisper. "And when it's just Eve and me, I always call her Angie. That's her real name. Angela Bruin."

"So what you're telling me is..."

"...that's right, KP. Davie Renluenn's with the FBI too. For the sake of Angie, let's keep this hush-hush between the two of us, just like you haven't told anyone that Angie's a Fed."

I paused for a moment and thought of what I had told him during our earlier conversation. As far as I knew, I was educating him on the business, how pushes work, and how Richard Eisen decides who's going to get pushed or not. I didn't let him on to any secrets that would be of interest to the FBI, but rather helped him understand how pro wrestling works. Though I supposed he already knew that, having been in RIPW for quite a while. He was just playing coy and naive, trying to assimilate himself by acting like a total mark.

Geez, I hope the other workers don't unintentionally grass on old man Eisen. Not that I condone his business practices or his tax evasion, but if the Feds bust him, that could be REALLY bad for everyone's business, especially the SWF.

Considering that the TEW website profiles them as FBI agents it could be called the worst kept secret in the wrestling world <img alt="

SWF Elite Coliseo Ruben Rodriguez (Puerto Rico) Friday, December 6, 2013 <div style="text-align:center;">THE ELITE ANNOUNCE TEAM - DON'T GO AROUND CALLING THEM THE SECOND UNIT! - JASON AZARIA, KYLE RHODES, ANA GARCIA http://i294.photobucket.com/albums/mm87/endshiftresign/TEW%202013/JasonAzaria_zpsdb70ab90.jpghttp://i294.photobucket.com/albums/mm87/endshiftresign/TEW%202013/KyleRhodes_alt1_zps3eff8b4a.jpghttp://i294.photobucket.com/albums/mm87/endshiftresign/TEW%202013/AnaGarciaalt_zps7d5887ef.jpg</div> Azaria - Little fact you may not know - Jason Azaria's on Elite! Yes, I'm doing double duty now, and this I can say - at least here on Elite, I don't have to put up with Peter Michaels and his rampant politicking for the Chase Agency! And being on Elite reunites me with a man I've worked with for almost two decades...the Supreme Straight Shooter, Kyle Rhodes! Rhodes - And let's not forget Supreme Attitude Records contract artist Ana Garcia, back from tour and ready to commit to commentary full-time! A. Garcia (apparently Elite's designated SWF App shill) - Even when I was on tour, I always made sure to keep tabs on the goings-on at Supreme TV, and it's all thanks to the SWF App! It's free to download, available on the Apple App Store, the Google Play Store and the Windows Phone Store. So regardless of what phone you've got...you can download the SWF App and get up-to-date reports on the SWF, fresh off the press, not to mention exclusive footage you won't see on television or the Internet! Azaria - Speaking of smartphones, Rich Money had recently compared Remo to BlackBerry, and I believe he's in the ring right now, possibly ready to shed some light into why he compared the Alpha Dog to a struggling phone manufacturer! This we know for sure, though - Rich Money vs Remo in a Lumberjack Match has just been confirmed for Christmas Clash! The announcers talk briefly about Elite's previous history on SWF programming when all of a sudden... <div style="text-align:center;">http://i294.photobucket.com/albums/mm87/endshiftresign/TEW%202013/CaseyValentine_zpsca408bd5.jpg</div> Valentine - Hey, good-lookin'! Mind if I sit next to you and buy you a drink, er...pick up a headset? A. Garcia (excusing herself) - Excuse me...I think I have to head backstage. Azaria (trying to contain his mock surprise) - Casey Valentine, everyone! He's going to be guesting on commentary tonight as a reward for winning the last Promo Challenge on High Stakes... <blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="35955" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div><div style="text-align:center;">ANGLE- Money Rants About Remo (93/A)</div> <div style="text-align:center;">http://i294.photobucket.com/albums/mm87/endshiftresign/TEW%202013/RichMoney_zps8b6695dd.jpg</div> Rich Money, as he's often done, is cutting the introductory promo for SWF Elite, and as this is the premiere episode of the rebooted Elite (last seen on TV in 1985), he thanks the SWF Galaxy, "marks" that they are, for making a second A-show possible, but quickly starts talking about himself and The New Money Army and how they'll be stuffing their stockings with title belts at Christmas Clash. He then starts talking about his confirmed Lumberjack Match against Remo, and what the match means to both men. Money - ...and it has come to my attention that I, the richest, smartest and one of the most talented - of course I defer to my New Money Army - SWF Superstars, will be facing one of the SWF's laziest, Remo. In a lumberjack match. With none of those lumberjacks being members of The New Money Army, nor The Bobby Bruce Bonanza. Nor any one of the organizations rumored to be part of our strategy to "divide" and make the right kind of alliances. Yes, Remo, everything's going to be stacked in your favor. Though you're not exactly the most popular guy backstage, you know, the SWF Galaxy knows, everybody knows that people hate me. They find it a chore to even mention my name in a sentence, but then again, that's the price you have to pay for being Money. Haters...let them hate. And haters, I've got plenty. Not my fault that the locker room is mostly composed of weak individuals who always think first of what others will say before trusting their instincts and unleashing their inner Moneyman. Those men are going to be YOUR lumberjacks, Remo, all yours. But knowing you, Remo, knowing how you dropped the ball repeatedly back when The Almighty Dollar existed, you're the only one DUMB and LAZY enough to snatch defeat from the jaws of imminent victory. Just when all these MARKS think you've got the win...it's gonna slip away from your fingers. Your loss at Christmas Clash is going to be your own undoing, Remo. And once Christmas Clash is over, no one, not even the Acting Commissioner who seems to have an infinite, and USELESS power to forgive, will even consider you for title contention. Not even the next Nothing to Lose World Heavyweight and Supreme Heavyweight Ladder Matches! (pauses) Let's face it, Remo. Calling you "lazy" is old and trite, so let's try something else. You've always been a bear. But now, you're a big, powerful, yet SOFT teddy bear. And if you were a stock,you would also be a bear...you've fallen further than BlackBerry, and like that company and others, there's nowhere else to go but DOWN with you...</div></blockquote> <blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="35955" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div><div style="text-align:center;">ANGLE - Remo Beats Down on Money (74/B-)</div> <div style="text-align:center;">http://i294.photobucket.com/albums/mm87/endshiftresign/TEW%202013/Remo_alt5-1_zps533b9069.jpg</div> Remo's ascendancy as a top babyface despite his storyline absence from the title picture until February 2014 continues, as he gets a huge pop, interrupting his former best friend's promo... Remo - All this talk about bears is the biggest bunch of BULL I've ever heard from you, Rich Money! All you do is talk, Rich, talk, talk, talk about how rich you are, how powerful you are, how you can buy anybody's loyalty. All that talk won't help you at Christmas Clash! Money (smiling sarcastically) - Very clever, Remo. I never expected you to know anything about the stock market. (pauses) After all, it's always been "The Alpha Dog is goin' huntin'," "The Alpha Dog is on the prowl", "Alpha Dog this", "Alpha Dog that", words of a big, DUMB and SOFT brute like you are. So what's it going to be now, Teddy Bear? How'd you like it now that you've struck it out by yourself, with no Squeeky McClean, Spencer Spade or Richie Pangrazzio in your corner? Having heard enough of Money's blather, Remo charges to the ring and beats down on the Moneyman, finishing him off with a Lumbar Puncture, then, picking him up and setting him up for a powerful dosage of the Destroyer! The crowd goes wild upon seeing Remo destroy his foe ahead of their Christmas Clash encounter, and the announce team (except guest commentator Casey Valentine) chimes in with predictions that Money vs Remo will be a key selling point for the next PPV. Azaria then announces a commercial, and Steve Frehley vs Cameron Vessey after the break.</div></blockquote> <blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="35955" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div><div style="text-align:center;">Cameron Vessey vs Steve Frehley (64/C)</div> <div style="text-align:center;">http://i294.photobucket.com/albums/mm87/endshiftresign/TEW%202013/CameronVesseyalt_zpsccca34c0.jpg vs http://i294.photobucket.com/albums/mm87/endshiftresign/TEW%202013/SteveFrehley_alt4_zps4c333206.jpg</div> It's been a while since we've seen Cameron Vessey in the ring, but his push isn't any better than it was before his absence. He barely gets anything in against Steve Frehley, who ends the match with a Frehley's Comet, before kicking the fallen Vessey repeatedly, and delivering a Launching Pad Suplex. Frehley storms out of the ring, angrily cursing Nicky Champion, and pushing Bryan Vessey (who had suddenly appeared towards the end of the match) aside as he watches from the ramp with a sneaky smile on his face.

Faith says he's disappointed with Gilmore's actions, but understands where he's coming from. He then announces that Gilmore will be headlining tonight's inaugural episode of Elite by facing the man who had done the most to rile him and frame him up, and the man who had paid the Kansas City cops off to execute the frame-up - Drew Hawkins. Gilmore's eyes burn with intensity so thick you can cut it with a knife, and after simply nodding his head and muttering "Thanks, Christian," he storms out of the office, screaming and raving. Gilmore - HAWKINS!!!!! YOU MADE ME LOOK BAD IN FRONT OF THE FANS AND FORCED MY HAND INTO DOIN' WHAT I DID!!!!

This is his first appearance since leaving on a two-week promotional junket for The S.E.A.L., and in line with his more "Hollywood" attitude, Eisen has changed his hairdo and grown a goatee, looking more arrogant than ever. His high-pitched, nasal speaking voice remains, however, to take the edge off his arrogant new look. E. Eisen - What's the meaning of this, Christian? Faith - Hi, Eric. Me and your dad were talking, and... E. Eisen - Forget "you and my dad" and know that the SWF's greatest wrestling-to-movies crossover is BACK! So Dad launched this new show because your crony Rich Money wants more exposure for his New Money Army, as if he doesn't have enough of it. The least you can do, Mr. ACTING Commissioner, is to put me on the goddamn show. Run trailers for The S.E.A.L., so that the SWF Galaxy could find out what an action-packed thriller it is. Give my friends Greg, Matt, Ash and Edd some airtime because their film, Idealistic Teacher, is gonna be out soon. Nobody wants to see Nicky Champion vs Sammy Bach, and...what the hell is this? BRYAN VESSEY VS RICKY DALE JOHNSON?!?!? Those two GRANDFATHERS?!?? (pauses for a few moments) At least Bryan's still got it, but RDJ?!?!? Hell, I guess I should've seen this coming. You're old, they're old. Vessey the Elder's in with Money, and so are you. Faith - I don't know where you're getting those allegations, Eric, but they are OFF-BASE. I didn't book you because we weren't expecting to see you here. We thought you'd want to stay a few more days in L.A., since you seemed to be enjoying yourself so much. E. Eisen - Yeah? Well, I flew standby from L.A. to Puerto Rico just to be sure I got to the stadium on time, and I did. (pauses) C'mon, Christian. If you're really the antithesis to people like Barry Bowen, show it. Take Vessey or Hawkins out of their respective matches and put me in there. I can give these people a show. I'm Eric Eisen, Christian! Son of your best friend! And that's MORE THAN ENOUGH! Faith - Short answer, no. Long answer, focus more on your established wrestling career than your budding Hollywood career if you want to get booked more often. Will there be anything else, Eric? E. Eisen - Oh, there will be, Mr. ACTING Commissioner. People say I've bloated my faction. People say Eric Eisen doesn't know when enough is enough, and that he keeps addin' these second-generation losers who don't know their wristlocks from wristwatches. Well, lemme just say this. If Jack Bruce had a plan when bringin' his buddies from Hollyweird over, so does the Entourage, and that's to Occupy SWF. You're old, Christian Faith. You look old, you feel old, you think old, and you WRESTLE old. You better be thankful I don't have everyone in the posse with me.</div></blockquote> <div style="text-align:center;">ANGLE - Calum Gets Ready (36/D-)</div> Rhodes - The 24/7 Partay Dudez have an interesting strategy, and that's to rotate the three members of the band and their bouncer in different combinations. So far, Calum and A-Prime didn't work, neither did Stevie and Calum. Now we've got Mainstream and Calum teaming up as the Partay Dudez! Azaria - Notice how Calum is the only constant the Dudez have had throughout the tourney? Rhodes - That's because he's their submission expert, their top technician. Remember that submission wins count as three points! Valentine (yawning) - Booooo-ring. The Dudez don't have a chance, even at making the wild card round, no matter what they do. If you ask me, The Can-Am Animals, Franklin Huggins and Edd Stone, are the odds-on favorite to win the final Group A match. You know those guys have the talent, they have the good looks, and Edd and myself will be appearing on Idealistic Teacher, right on time for the holiday season! A. Garcia (under her breath) - How long do I have to put up with this creep? Valentine - As long as possible, baby, because you're sittin' next to your next High Stakes Champion! (winks his eye) Nice rendition of that Petula Clark song on the Idealistic Teacher soundtrack... A. Garcia - That was Sandy Posey, "I Take it Back," and I hope the mentors take you back to wherever you came from. (sighs) Valentine - Whatever, Ana baby!

The match in itself is quite open, and Mainstream and Edd Stone are especially impressive with their top-rope moves, but thanks to a Casey Valentine referee distraction on Darren Smith and the Keith twins keeping A-Prime, Stevie and Kristen Pearce at bay, Stone is able to enter quickly as the illegal man, grab Calum before he goes for the Honey Trap, and deliver Arabian Nights with Edd-Fu. Stone then places Huggins' arm over the fallen Calum and The Can-Am Animals emerge undefeated in SWF 4T action. WINNERS - The Can-Am Animals in 6:17.

This time, the Dark Destroyer doesn't appear, but another Supreme Heavyweight Scramble competitor, Jack Giedroyc, shows up on guest commentary (mercifully replacing Casey Valentine for this match), putting Champion over. Midway through the match, referee Jez McArthuer banishes Bryan Vessey and Drew Hawkins to the locker room for their incessant distractions, which leads to Vessey yelling a threat of "We're gonna get 'ya, Jez Mac" as he storms back with Hawkins.

You better do a lot of trainin' when you aren't creating racism when there isn't any, or kickin' your opponents when they're down like the weak coward you are.

And here, their feud continues, with Ricky Dale Johnson finally getting a chance to exact revenge against someone from The New Money Army, not long after they took Vengeance out of commission and injured his back. RDJ and Bryan Vessey take turns controlling the match, with the latter calling things in the ring, but after Vessey nearly wins it with the Super Vessey Plex at 13:30, RDJ starts mounting a late comeback, surprising Vessey when he dodges a clothesline, and repeatedly blocking his attempts at the Furusawa Arm Bar! RDJ has Vessey set up for the Southern Justice, when Drew Hawkins takes advantage of Sam Sparrow's pro-New Money Army leanings by openly tripping him as he runs the ropes. That sets up a Vessey Driver, as Bryan Vessey gets the pin and the win. WINNER - B.

Yes, even with the mask off and the biker gear replacing the black trenchcoat and chains, Vengeance is staying true to his roots as the Unhinged Vigilante, and while he's still apparently favoring his sore back, RDJ is there to help him back to the locker room.</div></blockquote> <blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="35955" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div><div style="text-align:center;">Tom "Angry" Gilmore (w/Jessie) vs Drew Hawkins (w/Rich Money and Jack Bruce) (93/A)</div> <div style="text-align:center;">http://i294.photobucket.com/albums/mm87/endshiftresign/TEW%202013/AngryGilmore_zpsdb22196d.jpg vs http://i294.photobucket.com/albums/mm87/endshiftresign/TEW%202013/WolfHawkins_zpse68bca38.jpg</div> If the 24/7 Partay Dudez's (unsuccessful) strategy was to rotate members in tag tournament action, The New Money Army appears to be rotating cornermen. This time, it's no less than Rich Money and Jack Bruce seconding Drew Hawkins, but Darren Smith keeps a close eye on both of them as Tom Gilmore and Hawkins start off slow, mostly exchanging chain wrestling moves in the first five minutes. As we move closer to the tenth minute, Hawkins lands the Full Moon Rising on Gilmore, thanks to the old technique of one man (Money) arguing with the ref and the other (Bruce) with the distraction/interference - Gilmore was able to stop Bruce's attempt to run in with a hard forearm, but isn't prepared for Hawkins' finisher! If it's any consolation for Gilmore, Smith notices what's going on, and again, orders Money and Bruce back to the locker room. Despite that dishonest move, Gilmore isn't out of it, and he counters a tornado DDT attempt at around 12:30 to start his comeback. Hawkins goes for another Full Moon Rising at 15:50, but Gilmore dodges it, picks his foe up, and finishes him off with the Anger Management, with no NMA members to distract or interfere. After all those consecutive singles wins, Drew Hawkins has finally gotten pinned, and Gilmore celebrates the win with his wife Jessie and the SWF Galaxy's Puerto Rican contingent. WINNER - Gilmore in 16:06</div></blockquote> <blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="35955" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div>SWF Thanksgiving Tag Team Tournament Standings: Group A: The Can-Am Animals (3-0-0, 6 points) - QUALIFIED FOR TAG TEAM TURMOIL Eros Squad (2-0-1, 4 points) - WILD CARD (TBD ON UPRISING) The Fly Boys (1-0-2, 2 points) - ELIMINATED 24/7 Partay Dudez (0-0-3, 0 points) - ELIMINATED Group B: High Concept (3-0-0, 6 points) - QUALIFIED FOR TAG TEAM TURMOIL 100% Sneaky (1-0-2, 3 points) - WILD CARD (TBD ON UPRISING) Sons of Sam (1-0-2, 3 points) - WILD CARD (TBD ON UPRISING) The Undawater Union (1-0-2, 3 points) - WILD CARD (TBD ON UPRISING) Group C: The Dysfunctional Bumfholes (2-0-0, 5 points) - QUALIFIED FOR TAG TEAM TURMOIL The Awesomeness (2-0-1, 4 points) - WILD CARD (TBD ON UPRISING) The Royal Pains (1-0-2, 2 points) - ELIMINATED Texas Justice (1-0-0, 2 points) - WITHDREW The Psychedelic Soul Brothers (0-0-3, 0 points) - ELIMINATED</div></blockquote> <blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="35955" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div>Overall Grade - 88/B+ Increased Popularity in 5 Regions SWF Elite Rating - 9.20 Trending on Twitter, Inc.

OOC - Uprising's already been written, and quite quickly - going with a more bare-bones format, though the future plan would be "SWF Uprising Presents DaVE" - two thirds DaVE matches (with medium-detailed recaps), one third midcard Supreme and Elite brand matches (with quickie recaps).

Last few hours to get those predictions in! <img alt="" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/biggrin.png.929299b4c121f473b0026f3d6e74d189.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" />

OOC - Actually, Psycho Sam, it's "Eros Squad SCORE." <img alt=":p" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/tongue.png.ceb643b2956793497cef30b0e944be28.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> Since becoming "Jungle Stud" Jack Hoffs, the former Jungle Lord has picked up a whole lot of new English words...including those you shouldn't be saying on television. And those that pertain to the adult film industry. Anyway, here's Uprising, with its new bare-bones recap/smaller photo format. <img alt=":)" data-src="//content.invisioncic.com/g322608/emoticons/smile.png.142cfa0a1cd2925c0463c1d00f499df2.png" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> SWF Uprising Canton Civic Center (Ohio, Great Lakes) Sunday, December 8, 2013 DARK MATCHES/YOUTUBE PRE-SHOW: Des Davids d. Rodney Ekuma via Quarterback Sack in 3:52 (58/D+) Donnie J d. Enhancement Eddie via Death on Venice Beach in 3:56 (39/D-) UPRISING: ANGLE - Money Rants About Remo (83/B) This is a replay of the debut promo on SWF Elite, where Rich Money called Remo out for being a "bear" in more ways than one - a teddy bear because he's soft, and a bear in terms of stock market jargon, meaning a stock that's losing value. Ronald Green vs BB Colossus (w/Ms. Emma Chase and Rodney Ekuma) (16/F) http://i294.photobucket.com/albums/mm87/endshiftresign/SWF%20Small/9e724b6b-f758-4601-9f93-f6573ac7ee33_zps01f99774.jpg vs http://i294.photobucket.com/albums/mm87/endshiftresign/SWF%20Small/8bf7767e-f102-4745-b192-ddd3ab4ae2f6_zpse8b0ce25.jpg BB Colossus defeated Ronald Green in 0:53 with a Colossus Avalanche. ANGLE - The Profit Margin Beats Down on Green (56/D+) As is quickly becoming a tradition, The Profit Margin (BB Colossus/Rod Ekuma) assault hapless local jobber Ronald Green...just because. Both men growl at the announcers in a very '80s monster heel-like manner while Ms. Emma Chase looks on, almost devoid of any emotion. The Green Outcast vs A-Prime (w/Kristen Pearce) (36/D-) http://i294.photobucket.com/albums/mm87/endshiftresign/SWF%20Small/0ba83b6e-d629-4a99-8547-fd1a43f4370a_zps3c763c93.jpg vs http://i294.photobucket.com/albums/mm87/endshiftresign/SWF%20Small/e26e5c49-1d72-4c95-9d1a-2b09b945335b_zpse627fb94.jpg A-Prime defeated The Green Outcast (Emerald Angel ahead of his official debut) in 2:33 with a Running Powerslam. ANGLE - The Bubblegum Factory - 24/7 Partay Dudez Interview Ino and Kobe (50/D) Former U.S. title holder Koshiro Ino makes another guesting on The Bubblegum Factory, where he unveils his new protege, Magnum Kobe. Seemingly changing his tune after being so rabidly anti-sports entertainment, Ino barks "You want sports entertainer? I'll give you sports entertainer!" to Mainstream and Stevie, unveiling the red-haired, rhyme-dropping Kobe, who says rather haltingly that "cruiserweight in America lousy, Magnum Kobe puro gonna make you drowsy," among other near-Japanglish rhymes. Ino hypes Kobe as "the puro cruiser" and a million-selling rap artist in his home country - when Mainstream predictably asks if that's a million yen, he gets yelled at and insulted by both Japanese wrestlers. Ino and Kobe then challenge Darryl Devine to a Shooting Star title match later on in the evening, which the reigning champ accepts. ANGLE - The Awesomeness Rants About The Dysfunctional Bumfholes (48/D-) The Awesomeness are being interviewed by Katie Cameron (making her debut as Uprising backstage interviewer, though she remains part of the High Stakes crew), and they cry foul about Randy Bumfhole and The Zim having been allowed to replace Texas Justice in their group. Alanis Springsteen says Texas Justice's last two matches should have been forfeit losses, hence The Awesomeness should have finished Group C undefeated and qualified outright for the Tag Team Turmoil title match. Regarding The Awesomeness' wild card opponents, The Undawater Union, Jefferson Stardust says that masked superheroes can't stop rock 'n' roll, especially if they're bargain-basement crime fighters like Red Snapper and The Amazing Urchin. The Undawater Union (w/Angel Fish) vs The Awesomeness (w/Alanis Springsteen) - Wild Card for Tag Team Turmoil Title Match at Christmas Clash (61/C-) http://i294.photobucket.com/albums/mm87/endshiftresign/SWF%20Small/f982a233-a336-44bc-8a51-62f4c3f267a1_zpsd3cef4b0.jpghttp://i294.photobucket.com/albums/mm87/endshiftresign/SWF%20Small/30090b2d-95fb-429d-baa3-e2c908d87f46_zps1f474c86.jpg vs http://i294.photobucket.com/albums/mm87/endshiftresign/SWF%20Small/54719b1e-58f5-4da2-849e-acc1caa7e3be_zps156cf98f.jpghttp://i294.photobucket.com/albums/mm87/endshiftresign/SWF%20Small/8c6180f2-3419-44dd-af09-be95fd7426df_zps270b3107.jpg The Awesomeness defeated The Undawater Union in 7:11 with a Cannonball Run (Huey Cannonball) on The Amazing Urchin. During the match we saw Alanis Springsteen attack Red Snapper. The Awesomeness qualifies for Tag Team Turmoil title match at Christmas Clash. ANGLE - RPJ Hypes 100% Sneaky vs Eros Squad vs Sons of Sam (56/D-) Katie Cameron returns for another backstage chit-chat with a wild card contender for the Tag Team Turmoil match, and this time it's 100% Sneaky and their manager, Richie Pangrazzio Jr. In his thick New York accent, Pangrazzio debunks rumors of his "All-Stahs" disbanding because Remo left the fold, and says that he can get by with "Spensah" (Spade) and Squeeky (McClean) alone representing the All-Star Team's cause. He says that with Spade's aerial moves and McClean's technical brilliance, they're the sure favorites to defeat the pornographers of Eros Squad and the Sons of Sam, who will never be as great as their father was. Ben 'n' Glenn Casey vs The Royal Pains (44/D-) http://i294.photobucket.com/albums/mm87/endshiftresign/SWF%20Small/1c1c5e53-4e2e-4298-821a-d51a86137588_zps3d93dd4a.jpghttp://i294.photobucket.com/albums/mm87/endshiftresign/SWF%20Small/56600dc2-8518-4577-bd09-ca7ca38ff311_zps33a4fa73.jpg vs http://i294.photobucket.com/albums/mm87/endshiftresign/SWF%20Small/11cabc49-f012-41fd-9ab2-d66515410c9e_zps2ee5288e.jpghttp://i294.photobucket.com/albums/mm87/endshiftresign/SWF%20Small/e467166a-9301-4d00-ae11-ddd62980c011_zps07552648.jpg The Royal Pains defeated Ben 'n' Glenn Casey in 3:56 with a High Society (Paul Huntingdon) on Glenn Casey.

ANGLE - Devine Gets Ready (46/D-) Darryl Devine © vs Magnum Kobe (w/Koshiro Ino) - SWF Shooting Star Title Match (55/D+) http://i294.photobucket.com/albums/mm87/endshiftresign/SWF%20Small/9fa59465-e4d1-481c-83da-b1c9cc2ee6e4_zpsa7cd266b.jpg vs http://i294.photobucket.com/albums/mm87/endshiftresign/SWF%20Small/c6118693-9d15-4eba-b501-750de97e4afe_zpsba99648e.jpg Darryl Devine defeated Magnum Kobe in 8:14 with a Devine Dream Drop on Kobe. During the match we also had Koshiro Ino distract Devine. Darryl Devine makes his eighth defense of the SWF Shooting Star title. ANGLE - Bobby Bruce Shows Respect for Jack Bruce, Rants About Devine (78/B) Grabbing the microphone from a stage hand, Bobby Bruce says that he's too good to be working the PPV pre-show - it's a familiar rant from the cocky young rocker - but this time, he's acknowledging Jack Bruce as his dad, and saying that the son of a certified rock 'n' roll legend like the Cream of the Crop should be headlining pay-per-view events. Then again, Bobby adds, he isn't surprised as to why he's in the pre-show - his opponent, after all, is "second-rate" drummer and Shooting Star champ Darryl Devine. Upping the rock 'n' roll ante, Bruce says his (and his kayfabe mom's) hometown of Los Angeles is where rock music reached its zenith, while Devine's hometown of Seattle will always be known for two things - rain and junkie musicians. This angers Devine to the point that he chases after Bruce... ANGLE - Devine Chases Bobby Bruce, Gets Beaten Down by The Awesomeness (50/D) The chase leads Devine to the parking lot, where he is ambushed by The Awesomeness and (ironically) his real-life fiancee Alanis Springsteen! Springsteen mostly directs traffic for her charges, as Devine gets Shock and Awed in the parking lot, then bashed in the head with Bobby Bruce's gimmicked acoustic guitar! This busts Devine wide open as face announcers Jerry Eisen and Kyle Rhodes condemn the Bobby Bruce Bonanza's actions. "They may not be part of The New Money Army, but as their allies, they're just as deplorable," says Eisen. Eros Squad (w/Stephanie Percy) vs Sons of Sam vs 100% Sneaky (w/Richie Pangrazzio Jr.) - Wild Card for Tag Team Turmoil Title Match at Christmas Clash (70/C+) http://i294.photobucket.com/albums/mm87/endshiftresign/SWF%20Small/a2b14ddf-3b41-4a1b-b832-41ffaec920f5_zps8695688c.jpghttp://i294.photobucket.com/albums/mm87/endshiftresign/SWF%20Small/4770cd06-9b37-4ee0-ab0c-8ffaa7ab4b7a_zpscc489833.jpg vs http://i294.photobucket.com/albums/mm87/endshiftresign/SWF%20Small/e27d4756-c611-437f-a3fc-769a8492594d_zpsea016135.jpghttp://i294.photobucket.com/albums/mm87/endshiftresign/SWF%20Small/519bb444-b786-4ed5-80b9-55d75081f1af_zpsa2689856.jpg vs http://i294.photobucket.com/albums/mm87/endshiftresign/SWF%20Small/fc30cba1-b762-40c5-9bb8-5f42f158a0c1_zpsdb3e8586.jpghttp://i294.photobucket.com/albums/mm87/endshiftresign/SWF%20Small/261c9c65-e192-410c-88da-78da3b3e1e05_zps54a42388.jpg Eros Squad defeated Sons of Sam and 100% Sneaky in 8:19 with a Jungle Jack-You-Later (Jack Hoffs) on Spencer Spade. Earlier, Eros Squad eliminated Sons of Sam at 3:50 with a Huge Electron (Adam Newtron) on Matthew Keith. During the match we saw Richie Pangrazzio Jr. distract Newtron (by waving baseball bat) and Stephanie Percy distract Greg Keith (by yelling "LET ME BE YOUR OPPORTUNISTIC TEACHER!"). Eros Squad qualifies for Tag Team Turmoil title match at Christmas Clash. ANGLE - Donnie J Psyches Up Prudence (47/D-) With the main event of tonight's Uprising approaching, Donnie J gives moral support to friend and tag teammate James Prudence, as he takes part in singles action against one half of the Can-Am Animals, Franklin Huggins. Donnie tells Prudence that although they've not had much success in tag competition, Jimmy P seems to be one of those guys who step up when in the main event - he gave Tom "Angry" Gilmore a great match in the debut episode of Uprising, and was also the first man to defeat Koshiro Ino in singles competition. Donnie ends this angle by telling Prudence to make Huggins pay for helping Casey Valentine embarrass him on the last High Stakes. James Prudence (w/BJ O'Neill and Donnie J) vs Franklin D. Huggins III (w/Lisa Bowen and Edd Stone) (66/C+) http://i294.photobucket.com/albums/mm87/endshiftresign/SWF%20Small/35b90a1c-eddd-4289-86d2-82e7b2b1f4c3_zpsf47f1468.jpg vs http://i294.photobucket.com/albums/mm87/endshiftresign/SWF%20Small/b5c7a27b-2fe4-43b2-9e8b-953bf1a2753d_zps25ea70a2.jpg James Prudence defeated Franklin D. Huggins III by submission in 8:59 with a Prudential Pain Plan. During the match Edd Stone and Lisa Bowen distracted Prudence (by making out with each other). (Franklin D. Huggins III and Lisa Bowen are an awkward pairing, they just have no chemistry whatsoever.) <blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="35955" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div>Overall Grade - 69/C+ SWF Uprising Rating - 1.03 Trending on Twitter - #EddSa #JamesPrudence #ErosSquadScore #GregAndMatthewKeith #SonsOfSam #MagnumKobe #BobbyBruce #ChristmasClash</div></blockquote>
