Mid Atlantic Wrestling or How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love the Territories

 

“Jean doesn’t want the book anymore.”

 

“Can’t say I blame him…”

 

“He said he’s still loyal to MAW but needs to step away from the book.”

 

“So… why call me Sam?”

Ah, that was the Rip Chord that Sam Keith knew and loved. To the point… No nonsense. And maybe a little drunk. He was retired after all. The former and current MAW owners stayed in contact quite a bit. It was Rip who told Sam to bring in his son to win the tag cups with Findlay. It was Sam who helped Rip drive down to Texas with everything. And during Sam’s divorce, Rip flew up to the old stomping grounds to give Sam a hand despite retiring.

 

It’s why Sam Keith called Rip Chord when Mean Jean Cattley decided before the biggest show of the year, the Rip Chord Invitational, that it was time to hand the book back to Sam. And it was why Sam needed Rip’s advice. While MAW had changed slightly, roster wise, in the past two years, no one knew MAW better than Rip. Not even Sam. And like a Godfather going to his Consigliore, he knew Rip would give the best advice.

 

“Well truth is Rip,” Sam began, “I need some advice. I have cut the field of potential replacements down to four.”

 

“Four?” Rip seemed leery over the phone and Sam took a deep breath.

 

“Yes Rip. Four. And all of them have a special place with you personally.”

 

“Well… ****in’ scratch Jay off that list.”

 

That was quick, Sam thought.

 

“Okay… three. My first candidate is Antoni-“

 

“Nope. 4C Champion. He’s going to be a star one day.”

 

“Really?”

 

“Yeah.”

 

“Okay…” Sam wasn’t completely sold on the idea. Antonio wasn’t exactly screaming Big League Star but he did light it up in 4C.

 

“Candidate number 3?”

 

“Steven Parker.”

 

“He’ll leave for USPW eventually. He’s dating that broad from there. Sam will pick him up for sure and waste him…”

 

“So why not grab him first?”

 

“Ever been in love Sam?”

 

“Really?” The divorce was still a sore spot for Sam. Rip thought it was hilarious thought and let Sam know by laughing a big laugh, one of his trademarks during his time feuding with Sam Strong in HGC.

 

“Sorry buddy. Listen, I don’t know who your last candidate is but I know I’ll have a reason. Who you got? Brandon Smith? Ryan Turner?”

 

“No… Actually… Casey Valentine…”

 

“Wow. You really saved the winner for last…” A mix of sarcasm and surprise took hold in Rip’s voice. While Casey wasn’t the worst, his uncle was, he certainly wasn’t the number one pick for head booker on anyone’s list. There was a reason he never won singles gold. He was considered a bit manipulative. Must run in the genes. “Actually… I think under you, Casey’s a great choice. And he wouldn’t leave MAW unless Sam Strong offered him a million bucks… That ain’t happening… Yes. Do it.”

 

“What?”

 

“Look, it’s your business. Sure I built it but it’s yours. But of all your choices, Casey is the one who loves MAW the most. He KNOWS MAW inside and out. And if it were me, in your shoes? I’d pick him. Anyways, I need to go ride a horse around the perimeter… Have a good night Sam.”

 

“Thanks Rip, you too.”

 

*CLICK*

 

And suddenly the future of wrestling laid on the hands of a man no one quite thought would ever be the future.

Casey finally gets the love he deserves. Always found him a better character than the other three guys.

[Heck yeah man. Hope you enjoy. I love Casey because I feel like it's Peter Valentine before he became full Valentine. So the potential is there.]

Marvin Earnest, Jay Fair, Sam Keith and myself…

 

It made no sense. It was January 1 after all. And I was a tad hung over…

 

Okay…

 

I was REALLY hung over. I was partying up ALL NIGHT. My uncle Peter invited me down to Birmingham to party with some USPWers and a red line flight later I found myself in the stuffy, overly heated, bright MAW offices on New Year’s Day… Because Sam just needed to see me…

 

Why did I comply… Oh yeah… Rip Chord Invitational. This was my year to become MAW champion and I knew it. I could feel it. Big things for the CV.

 

“Casey? Casey?? Earth to Casey…” Oh…Sam was talking to me. “Welcome to the offices Casey. I hope you had a good new year.”

 

“Yeah man. You know how us Valentines get down. Li-“

 

“Yeah enough… So, you’re probably wondering – what the heck am I doing here on New Year’s day?”

“Yep.”

 

“Sit down.” Sam motions to me towards a seat with a bunch of paper work in front of it. I sit down, smiling. Here it was… My title contract. I can feel it. I sit down and look down at a folder marked in red ink as “[ROSTER]” “So… if you haven’t caught on yet… Welcome to the booking team.”

 

“What?”

 

“WHAT?!”

 

“I quit.” Marv gets up and leaves. There’s an awkward tense moment before he returns. “Nah I’m joking, I love you fools. Welcome aboard Casey.”

 

“No seriously… WHAT?!” I looked at Jay who was seriously confused as Marv and Sam simply grin at each other. “Come on… Casey?”

 

“Yeah?”

 

“You’re the head booker?!”

 

“I’m just as surprised as you are.”

 

“Yes yes. It’s true. If you want.” I simply nod… “There is one condition. You’re not winning the Rip Chord Invitational.” What the frick…2013 was supposed to be my year! I got these awesome new sunglasses. I lifted some weights. I was on the cover of that TEW game!!! Wait... Was I? Hmm... Must check when I get home. Bet it was that friggin' Tommy Cornell... Overrated... “Well how about it?”

 

“What? Oh…Well I’m honored.”

 

“Good. Next business, the booking team. Jay is the head of scouting. He makes suggestions on who to hire. Run them through him. Marv is my number two. He is the head of talent, he will handle all decisions for me talent wise. And yeah, I’m your boss. Now? First meeting.”

 

“Can we hire my uncle Peter?”

 

“No.”

 

“I’ll really quit…”

 

“Wait… CASEY?”

 

“Yes Jay. Decision is final too!”

 

“Fine. Okay, well in all of your folders marked RCI you’ll find 5 potential workers we could use as a surprise entrant. Two are former Mid Atlantic champions.”

 

I look over the list. Mr. Lucha III, Mainstream Hernandez, Roger Cage, Greg Gauge and Steven Parker…

 

“Well Casey, here’s your first decision. Let’s build this card booker…”

 

 

 

Mid Atlantic Wrestling and the Confederation of the Territories present…

The Rip Chord Invitational VIII

 

The Rip Chord Invitational is back and this year it features talent from all over the COTT! With that in mind, let’s look at what is going to be an action packed Rip Chord Invitational!

 

The opening match of the tournament is a barn burner as Rip Chord’s former protégé, Antonio Del Veccio, returns to the Mid Atlantic looking to pick up the RCI that has alluded him in years past. Before he can get there though, he must get through former Mid Atlantic champion and RCI favorite, Findlay O’Farraday. The big man hasn’t had a chance in nearly two years for the tournament and is ripping to win his first Invitational.

 

The second match, another former RCI winner, the always versatile Casey Valentine puts the pride of the company on the line against the high flyer from the Combat Zone, American Flash!

 

The third match of the tournament slows the pace down but it isn’t a snoozer by any means. The veteran two time Mid Atlantic Champion Mean Jean Cattley goes head to head with another former Mid Atlantic Champion Citizen X. The winner between these two will certainly be the favorite.

 

And finally, the fourth match of the quarter finals is a surprise to even us here at MidAtlanticWrestling.com We have the Mid Atlantic American champion Hollywood Bret Starr going blind into the tournament with no idea of who his opponent will be. MAW’s newly appointed commissioner Marv Earnest has promised Bret will know sometime before his match but the champion, with no champion’s advantage and no foresight, may end up at quite the disadvantage come show time.

 

Cameron Vessey, Mid Atlantic Champion, won’t be scot free either, despite the tournament. Instead, he will be putting his championship belt on the line against the tough as nails New Yorker, Bulldozer Brandon Smith.

 

Also in action, tag champions, The Dynamite Express (Cameron Jones/Syd Collier) take on former tag champions The Aces of Mayhem. (Ace Youngblood/Max Mayhem)

 

All this and much more in Mid Atlantic Wrestling!

"So You Think You Can Commentate? Send a tape." That's what was posted on Craigslist late last week by Sam Keith.... And so we got tapes.

 

Tapes.

 

Tapes…

 

TAPES!!!!

 

Who uses tapes anymore anyways?! A whole box of tapes sat in front of me. It was my third assignment after booking the Rip Chord Invitational and hiring a new wrestler. Sam felt the DVDs would sound more professional with a consistent color man. And then he dropped a big friggin’ box of tapes on my desk. Everything from little audio cassettes of an Australian announcing the last Malice in Wonderland to PSW tapes of Doc Messing. I had heard every accent from the Canadian eh, the Texan drawl and the New York fast talk. The Australian, Mac, was my favorite. But I wasn’t sure how Marv felt. That’s when I realized… I should probably call the head announcer.

 

”Marv? It’s Casey.”

 

”Oh hey man. How’s the color search going?”

 

”Feeling pretty color blind. Right now I have a few names I like. Doc Messing and some Aussie named Mac… But I’m not sold. What do you think?”

 

”Well I’ve worked with Rock Downpour and Herb Stately. The good thing about Herb is you get a manager and Rock, you get a professional.”

 

”Eh… Rock, I don’t want people to fall asleep thinking it’s NYCW when they watch online. But Herb? You got his number?”

 

”GOOOOOOAL!!! YES! That’s my boy!!!”

 

”What?”

 

”What? Oh. Sorry. At my son’s hockey game. Can I just text you Herb’s number? Rock is New York, we don’t want to sound like New York man. Alright, I gotta go.

 

*CLICK*

 

I stared at the phone. Something was not right with that man. Happily married, with a kid? Where were the single… *knock*…

 

What. It’s 9 pm. *knock knock*

 

”Come in?”

 

http://img197.imageshack.us/img197/9439/ighd.jpg

 

Yes. My jaw dropped. There was a female… In an MAW office… And it wasn’t Lisa nor was it Jay Chord. I couldn’t believe it.

 

”Uh excuse me… ma’am? I think you’re looking for the bar next door… This is an office for a wrestling company.” The girl laughs and shakes her head. She drops some folders on my desk.

 

”Jay was right. No my name Sheu-fùh but… Well just call me Sophie.

 

”Well would you like to go to the bar and talk business Miss Sophie?” Sophie laughs and walks out. Was… that… a yes? I quickly scramble to my feet and grab my sports coat. By the time I do though I see a car starting up…

 

Nope. Not a yes…

 

Well, at least the night is not wasted.

 

[so... That's it for backstory stuff for now. Show is the next post. Probably sometime Sunday. Having way too much fun writing through alot of this. The future of wrestling doesn't look extremely bright. Especially when Big Smack Scott becomes available.... Or something. #Spoilers]

Damn poor Casey. Great characterization through. What will be interesting is his interaction with not just Keith and the booking team but the other MAW stars.

 

Are backstage incidents going to be handled by Marv or Casey?

[3rdStringPG]

I think you spoonerized Findlay O'Farraday's name...

 

Anyway, this looks like good stuff, being a MAW fan. Nice backstage segments, and I'm excited to see how this plays out, with Casey Valentine as head booker. And to see if Big Smack Scott does indeed join MAW! Anything BSS-related is great fun.

I was legit afraid of her father. Seriously. That dude could kill me.</p><p> </p><p> And Miss Sophie? She was busy with Jay Fair. JAY ****ING FAIR.</p><p> </p><p> **** you Jay Fair.</p><p> </p><p> Anyways, tonight was a big night. Rip Chord Invitational. Number 8. Time to make Rip proud. But first, Sam Keith had his daily pre-show locker room speech to give and then Jean… err me… would run through the line up.</p><p> </p><p> I smiled as Sam clapped his hands together. The small backstage area was cramped as it was. From both locker rooms, everybody began to walk out. Ahh… MAW where yes, heels and faces have separate locker rooms and Lisa Bowen has to come dressed in attire…</p><p> </p><p> Good stuff.</p><p> </p><p> <span style="color:#FF0000;">”Alright alright. We got a few new faces here tonight. Mr. Prieto, welcome. Herb, welcome. Flash, make yourselves at home. And a few old faces, Brandon and Antonio. Welcome back to Stanley Hall where we… make… legends.”</span> Some sarcastic clapping begins as Antonio and Brandon look at each other bewildered… I forgot, they haven’t experienced a Sam Keith pre-show speech. <span style="color:#FF0000;">”Alright enough of the sarcasm. I’m serious. Brandon and Antonio are both good examples of what happens when you stay true to the MAW way. Anyways, I don’t have much tonight. As some know, Jean has stepped away from booking here in MAW. I don’t blame him. It can be rough week in and week out. So from now on, the new pecking order is Jay, Marv, Casey and then me. I’ll be your main guy in working out match by match, but use the pecking order for everything else.”</span></p><p> </p><p> <span style="color:#8B0000;">“Casey?”</span> I recognized the voice immediately. Bret Starr. <span style="color:#8B0000;">“**** Casey man!”</span></p><p> </p><p> <span style="color:#FF0000;">“Seriously Bret? Shut up. Listen, treat Casey like you would treat Jean or myself. It’s his first day.”</span></p><p> </p><p> I step up on the overturned milk crate that had become a sort of podium to speak at… And immediately a “**** you Casey” chant begins. This goes on for a few minutes before the sold out Stanley Hall arena has begun chanting it… Yep. No use now. I simply go over the matches quickly over the chant as the entire locker room laughs. I quickly get down before Marv Earnest gets up to take roll. I head over to Sam. </p><p> </p><p> <span style="color:#FF0000;">“Remember when you did that to me?” </span>I simply nod my head. “<span style="color:#FF0000;">Well… payback is a bitch.”</span> Sam laughs as the chant continues throughout the crowd signaling that after the dark show, I should give the crowd what they want…</p>

[Rickymex]

Casey is going to go japanese dick heel on the crowd... or gets locked in the Proton Lock.

<p><strong>Post Show Notes</strong></p><p>

Match of the Night - Mr. Lucha III vs. Mean Jean Cattley</p><p>

Pop of the Night - Findlay O'Farraday winning the Invitational (His overness bumped up a whole letter grade. Nice.)</p><p>

Interview of the Night - Citizen X, The Manifesto of X. (Favorite one I wrote too. Had a lot of fun with it.)</p><p> </p><p>

Other Stuff [This will be an OOC look at what I thought of the show...]</p><p>

The Show Itself...</p><p>

Tournaments often feel repetitive to me. And MAW has two... But it's all good... The show I think went off alright. Wish I went with Lucha winning it all (C- main event would've been MUCH better than D-) but I had a preconceived plan of what I'm doing..</p><p> </p><p>

D- Main Event...</p><p>

Ouch. Findlay didn't put out the worst ratings of the night, that would go to Casey. Which will be a fun little IC to write...</p><p> </p><p>

On all the Run Ins...</p><p>

First time I ever booked with MAW. When I saw traditional, I thought the occasional run in would be fine... Unfortunately, as I was establishing some storylines, I did it... three times. Oops. None of them were appreciated either. Wow the crowd hated it.</p><p> </p><p>

On TEW 13...</p><p>

I love the new game... This is my first game actually with this game so getting used to things. I guess it's why I went with MAW. Small company. And a diary helps me flesh things out.</p><p> </p><p>

<span style="color:#FF0000;">“We made almost 10k kid!”</span></p><p> </p><p>

Whoa. That snapped me out of my haze. I had been staring at Sophie through the open door while reimaging that hug I gave Lisa Bowen after the show… <span style="color:#A0522D;">“Yowza,”</span> I exclaim as Sam Keith bursts into my office. He puts the finance report on my desk with a huge smile.</p><p> </p><p>

<span style="color:#FF0000;">“That’s the biggest profit I’ve seen in MAW since taking over.”</span></p><p> </p><p>

<span style="color:#A0522D;">“That is quite a bit of money. Wonder why?”</span></p><p> </p><p>

<span style="color:#FF0000;">“No idea… But I’ve been meaning on spreading our wings a little bit. Hiring a few guys I’ve had my eye on…”</span> Sam hands me a list. Him and these lists. These company and these lists. **** Jay Fair.</p><p> </p><p>

<span style="color:#A0522D;">“Wait, isn’t this Jay’s job?”</span></p><p> </p><p>

<span style="color:#FF0000;">“Where do you think this list originally came from?” </span>Sam smiles. <span style="color:#FF0000;">“In fact, it had about 50 names on it before I got to it. Jay thinks he’s still in Supreme sometimes. Anyways, look it over, send out feelers. I think we might have a good worker or two here.”</span></p><p> </p><p>

<span style="color:#A0522D;">“Great.”</span></p><p> </p><p>

<span style="color:#FF0000;">“Oh one more thing…”</span> Sam pauses for a moment before closing the door. <span style="color:#FF0000;">“Barry called. He said if he ever gets wind of you touching his daughter again, he’s going to show you why he’s called the Runaway Train.”</span> Sam laughs and closes the door. I just stare at the door. Damn. Barry Bowen is one scary dude… I began to look over the list of five wrestlers when there was a knock on the door. I looked up, expecting Sophie but instead seeing a face only a mother could love…</p><p> </p><p>

</p><div style="text-align:center;"><span>http://imageshack.us/a/img543/8773/z0hm.jpg</span></div><p></p><p></p><p> </p><p>

The Voice of the Mid Atlantic smiles as he opens the door and sits down. He too has paperwork, but unlike Sam, his paper work isn’t being shoved into my face. There’s a moment of silence which makes me wicked uncomfortable. Is this an intervention? I don’t get it… Why is he just staring at me smiling… I feel a bead of sweat roll down my face when I’ve finally had enough.</p><p> </p><p>

<span style="color:#A0522D;">”What!”</span></p><p> </p><p>

<span style="color:#800080;">”Huh?”</span></p><p> </p><p>

<span style="color:#A0522D;">”What are you doing in here?”</span></p><p> </p><p>

<span style="color:#800080;">”Oh sorry… Um. Right. I was waiting for you to start. But I guess I can.”</span></p><p> </p><p>

<span style="color:#A0522D;">”Waiting for me? That… That doesn’t even make sense.”</span></p><p> </p><p>

<span style="color:#800080;">”It’s what Jean used to do. He would start with a run down over what he thought was good and bad in the show… Then I would share with him some of my thoughts. Then we’d book the next show.”</span></p><p> </p><p>

<span style="color:#A0522D;">”So… I should’ve known this already?”</span></p><p> </p><p>

<span style="color:#800080;">”Yes. Anyways, next time. So what happened? You put out the two worst matches of the night, well besides the pre-show, but on the DVD those matches? Man those matches are going to SUCK. Hardcore.”</span></p><p> </p><p>

<span style="color:#A0522D;">”I don’t know man. Flash was doing those stupid ****in’ flips he does in the Combat Zone. I’ve never wrestled anything like that before in MAW, not even Charles goes that far. And Findlay and I? In tag matches we’re fine, we have something to fall back on but… We didn’t click. It seemed like we had two different goals from the bell.”</span></p><p> </p><p>

<span style="color:#800080;">”Well… wrestling two bad matches in one night isn’t going to help your cause with the fellows in the back. Speaking of which, talk to Bret lately?”</span></p><p> </p><p>

<span style="color:#A0522D;">”No.”</span></p><p> </p><p>

<span style="color:#800080;">”Well he isn’t too pleased about losing to Lucha in the opening round…”</span></p><p> </p><p>

<span style="color:#A0522D;">”What…”</span></p><p> </p><p>

<span style="color:#800080;">”Made a comment about how it makes him look weak as the champ.”</span></p><p> </p><p>

<span style="color:#A0522D;">”He looked great in the match! And he isn’t “THE” champ. He’s a champion. It’s the American title. Everyone knows Jean created that as a launch pad. Why is he so upset?”</span></p><p><span style="color:#A0522D;"> </span></p><p><span style="color:#A0522D;">

</span><span style="color:#A0522D;"><span style="color:#800080;">”I don’t know. You could’ve told him good job after the show to appease him though. Instead you complimented Lucha, who deserved it after he and Jean put out match of the night, and Findlay… Who was only slightly better than you.”</span></span></p><p><span style="color:#A0522D;"> </span></p><p><span style="color:#A0522D;">

</span><span style="color:#A0522D;"><span style="color:#A0522D;">”He wrestled three matches!”</span></span></p><p><span style="color:#A0522D;"> </span></p><p><span style="color:#A0522D;">

</span><span style="color:#A0522D;"><span style="color:#800080;">”So did Jean.”</span></span></p><p><span style="color:#A0522D;"> </span></p><p><span style="color:#A0522D;">

</span><span style="color:#A0522D;"><span style="color:#A0522D;">”Whatever… Anything else?”</span></span></p><p><span style="color:#A0522D;"> </span></p><p><span style="color:#A0522D;">

</span><span style="color:#A0522D;"><span style="color:#800080;">”Yeah two more things. Tag match? SUPER LONG. The crowd saw it as a piss break and they still came back with the match going on. But it’s fine. It was placed well so it didn’t hurt us too much. And… all those run ins? They need to stop. Our fans DO NOT like that nonsense. Thankfully you ended the final two matches clean or else we might’ve had a riot. But seriously. Cam running in on you, Herb with the tag match AND Starr in the Lucha match? I don’t know. You could’ve done something different.”</span></span></p><p><span style="color:#A0522D;"> </span></p><p><span style="color:#A0522D;">

</span><span style="color:#A0522D;"><span style="color:#A0522D;">”Had to establish storylines…”</span></span></p><p><span style="color:#A0522D;"> </span></p><p><span style="color:#A0522D;">

</span><span style="color:#A0522D;"><span style="color:#800080;">”Well don’t get too loose. Anyways. We got a show to book. Shall we?”</span></span></p><p><span style="color:#A0522D;"> </span></p><p><span style="color:#A0522D;">

</span></p><div style="text-align:center;"><p><span style="color:#A0522D;">Mid Atlantic Wrestling and the Confederation of the Territories is proud to present </span></p><p><span style="color:#A0522D;">

</span><span style="color:#A0522D;"><strong>The Wrestling Classic</strong></span></p></div><p></p><p></p><p><span style="color:#A0522D;"> </span></p><p><span style="color:#A0522D;">

Fallout from the Rip Chord Invitational begins at the Wrestling Classic! With an amazing tournament under our belts, the Mid Atlantic brought home the trophy. </span><span style="color:#A0522D;"><strong>Findlay O’Farraday</strong></span><span style="color:#A0522D;"> now has a chance to regain his as he has a Mid Atlantic Championship which he can cash in any time between now and the next Rip Chord Invitational! Before that time though, he and his Sam Keith Classic partner, </span><span style="color:#A0522D;"><strong>Matthew Keith</strong></span><span style="color:#A0522D;">, will team up for the first time since the tournament to take on the always dangerous Mid Atlantic Champion, </span><span style="color:#A0522D;"><strong>Cameron Vessey</strong></span><span style="color:#A0522D;"> and his ally, </span><span style="color:#A0522D;"><strong>Casey Valentine</strong></span><span style="color:#A0522D;"> in main event action!</span></p><p><span style="color:#A0522D;"> </span></p><p><span style="color:#A0522D;">

Meanwhile, another MAW champion, </span><span style="color:#A0522D;"><strong>Hollywood Bret Starr</strong></span><span style="color:#A0522D;"> will be putting his belt on the line as, newly appointed MAW Commissioner Marv Earnest announced last week, he will be forced to defend it against </span><span style="color:#A0522D;"><strong>Mr. Lucha III,</strong></span><span style="color:#A0522D;"> whom he cost a chance to enter the RCI finals last week!</span></p><p><span style="color:#A0522D;"> </span></p><p><span style="color:#A0522D;">

Another match made by the Commish features the tag champions, </span><span style="color:#A0522D;"><strong>Dynamite Express</strong></span><span style="color:#A0522D;">. After their new manager Herb Stately, interfered during their match it was announced that the champs would have to defend it once again against </span><span style="color:#A0522D;"><strong>The Aces of Mayhem</strong></span><span style="color:#A0522D;"> but so the champs didn’t have too much of a champion’s advantage, </span><span style="color:#A0522D;"><strong>The Lost Cause</strong></span><span style="color:#A0522D;"> would also be involved making it a triangle tag match!</span></p><p><span style="color:#A0522D;"> </span></p><p><span style="color:#A0522D;">

Speaking of managers, Ernest Forthdyke-Hume has said that there isn’t a single man in the MAW who can cleanly pin down the shoulders of </span><span style="color:#A0522D;"><strong>George Wolfe.</strong></span><span style="color:#A0522D;"> So Forthdyke-Hume has extended the challenge to anyone in the world. Who will respond the Wolfe’s challenge and will he be successful?</span></p><p><span style="color:#A0522D;"> </span></p><p><span style="color:#A0522D;">

</span><span style="color:#A0522D;"><strong>Mean Jean Cattley</strong></span><span style="color:#A0522D;"> came within a second of winning his first Rip Chord Invitational however the former champion couldn’t seal the deal. This month however, he gets a chance to redeem himself as he takes on the debuting </span><span style="color:#A0522D;"><strong>El Mitico Jr.</strong></span><span style="color:#A0522D;"> in what should be another great match to add to the MAW legend’s resume.</span></p><p><span style="color:#A0522D;"> </span></p><p><span style="color:#A0522D;">

And finally, an international tag team showcase. The newest stars in the Mid Atlantic, </span><span style="color:#A0522D;"><strong>Penfold Perdition & Cip Conduit</strong></span><span style="color:#A0522D;"> team up to take on OLLIE’s </span><span style="color:#A0522D;"><strong>Los Monteros</strong></span><span style="color:#A0522D;">!</span></p><p><span style="color:#A0522D;"> </span></p><p><span style="color:#A0522D;">

PLUS: Another “Manifesto from X!” </span></p><p><span style="color:#A0522D;"> </span></p><p><span style="color:#A0522D;">

[Last Call for Predictions. Show up tonight.]

 

It’s showtime. Showtime at the Apollo. And by Apollo I mean Stanley Hall… Imagine doing MAW at the Apollo? That would be so sick. Could have Marv do some jokes and Jay Fair be yanked off the stage and maybe even have Syd Collier do his impersonations… That’d be gr-

 

”Really? REALLY? That’s what you call a ****in’ prank? Marv Earnest did not seem pleased. I quickly get to my feet before seeing Marv in Bret Starr’s face. Marv is purple in the face as he continues to scream. ”Before I fire you for being an inconsiderate boob, explain yourself!!!”

 

”Don’t bother.” I, like no one else in the hallway, had bothered to noticed that Sam Keith had come out from the gorilla position. The show was about to start and this wasn’t the kind of shenanigans that Sam enjoyed. ”Marv. Get out to the ring. You’ve got an interview to do. Bret…Don’t do it again. Understand?

 

”Yeah… Sorry Sam.

 

With that, it seemed everyone was cool. Tempers weren’t too bad. It turns out that Marv hadn’t taken kindly to Bret Starr flipping his license plate upside down and when Marv and Herb went to grab some water from the gas station, a cop pulled them over. A simple little ribbing. Too bad Marv doesn’t have a sense of humor…

The Confederation of the Territories Presents

Mid Atlantic Wrestling’s Wrestling Classic

Live from Stanley Hall, Baltimore, MD

 

http://imageshack.us/a/img844/9479/7gsy.jpg

 

“Welcome everyone to the only place in America where you can see the talents of Herb Stately’s Superstars, this is Mid Atlantic Wrestling! I’m your host Herb Stately and we’re sending it ringside where MAW Commissioner Marv Earnest is standing by.

 

http://imageshack.us/a/img689/3451/h3lv.jpg

 

“Welcome everyone to Wrestling Classic! We are proud to bring you the best action the Confederation of the Territories can bring you! And what an action packed show we have tonight with our main event tag team match up. We have the Sam Keith Classic winners from 2011 and 2012 facing off tonight in what should be a match of the year candi-“

Before Marv can finish however “Fortunate Son” by the Dropkick Murphys begins to play. The crowd begins to boo realizing this can only signify the arrival of C-V-2 as the Mid Atlantic Champion and his always present partner, Casey Valentine, make their way out. The two partners get into the ring as Earnest looks at the two, questioning their motives.

 

”My name is Cameron Vessey, your champion, and I deserve respect!” As if on cue, the crowd begins to boo. Unlike last month, Vessey simply continues. “And Marvin Earnest, you come out here, you open your big mouth and you book us, the greatest duo in the history of MAW… nay the Confederation… NAY… the History of Professional Wrestling against a big oaf who got lucky last month and some young punk from Pittsburgh? Where is the respect? A duo of our caliber should be fighting tag team LEGENDS, not schmucks.”

 

“Speaking of that oaf, what are you and the Confederation going to do about the fact he clearly cheated last week and I should be standing here with my RCI trophy, not preparing for some tag match…”

 

Marv Earnest looks like he’s about to talk when he is once again interrupted by the chords of Mozart’s Dies Irae begins to play as the crowd pops.

The Rip Chord Invitational winner makes his way down to the ring with none other than his Sam Keith partner, Matthew Keith. The two look as confident as ever as they get into the ring. Keith has a microphone as he smiles. C-V-2 look ready to pounce on their opponents but Keith begins to speak.

 

“Whoa whoa…gentlemen, calm down. Look, if anyone knows what it’s like to have a false sense of entitlement, well it’s me. After all, my father owns this company! But see, the difference between me and you two is… well… I don’t cling to my name. See, I don’t claim to be the best in the world because I’m a Keith, rather I show I am the best in the world because… well, to be frank, I am.”

 

“So now we’re going to let some worker from Pittsburgh come out here and waste our microphone time? Shut his microphone off Marv!”

 

The crowd boos Valentine and Marv, finally realizing he’s given a moment to speak lifts his microphone.

 

”Actually everyone… Let’s give a warm MAW welcome to the newest signing, official as of today, Matthew Keith!!!” C-V-2 look like they’re about to flip their lid. Immediately both men go to target Keith, forgetting about Findlay O’Farraday. He simply shakes his head as if to say ‘Really?’ And charges at both men. Cam Vessey is able to slide out of the ring, unscathed, but Valentine isn’t so lucky as he’s dropped with a HUGE lariat. His head ricochets off of the mat and he rolls out to the floor with Vessey. Vessey mouths off to the two opponents later on as once again Marv speaks.

 

”One more thing, Cam, there was another reason I booked tonight’s tag match… See eventually Findlay is going to cash in on his title shot… Well until then, you need some challengers. And tonight you get a look at not only Findlay, a future contender, but your opponent next month, Matthew Keith!

 

Vessey looks absolutely furious screaming “You can’t do this to me!” Matthew Keith simply points at Vessey and motions that the belt is his.

 

”And if you’re not used to MAW action yet, this is how we roll here in the Mid Atlantic. We have a big main event not only tonight, but next month as well! And here comes the commissioner, Marv, what the heck man? What about one of my clients?”

 

”When one of them make an impact like Matthew Keith has, then maybe I’ll give them a shot. Until then, they’ve got tag titles to defend. Speaking of which, winner of our next match gets a tag title shot next month!”

 

”That’s preposterous!”

Los Monteros vs. Conduit & Perdition

Talk about a droolfest. Marv Earnest seemed to loved the idea of this international showcase, insisting that Perdition, who was Hawaiian, could be considered a foreign star being so far away from home and trained by the famous DeColts. Conduit, no slouch either, was trained at the famous Piledriver School. Meanwhile Los Monteros, who are tag champs in OLLIE and have been teaming since they were old enough, looked as crisp as ever. The match was quick, just enough of a taste to see where the tag division was heading as Perdition finished Luis Montero Jr. with an impressive splash off the top rope which Earnest dubbed “The Eyebrow Raiser.”

Conduit & Perdition d. Los Monteros, Eyebrow Raiser, 5:37, E+.

 

“Unimpressed Marv. Conduit and Perdition will have to do more than defeat a couple of luchador midgets to beat my boys for the tag titles.”

 

”I’m sure you’re right. Speaking of managers who think they’re clients are the best... here comes George Wolfe and Ernest Forthdyke-Hume.”

 

http://imageshack.us/a/img402/6866/00ct.jpghttp://imageshack.us/a/img203/9797/0zhy.jpg

 

The big man is standing menacingly in the ring holding a steel briefcase as Forthdyke-Hume, always the gentleman, yanks the microphone off of the ring announcer.

 

“Back off young lady. I do not know where your filthy mouse has been and I cannot risk having a disease that can hinder the Chosen One’s progress to the top of Mid Atlantic Wrestling.” The crowd boos as Forthdyke-Hume continues. “Be quiet slobs. Do you not see the pure physical specimen of George Wolfe in front of your eyes? This man right here is not only a future Mid Atlantic champion, but a future World’s Heavyweight Champion. And tonight, the path continues. No one in MAW can defeat my man and I’m willing to place a wage on it. If ANY MAN can pin George Wolfe’s shoulders in the year 2013, I will pay them 1 million dollars, cash. George?”

 

The big man comes over and opens the briefcase for everyone to see 100 dollar bills lining it. Wolfe closes it quickly, hands it to Forthdyke-Hume and takes the microphone. “I am the best investment anyone can make because I ALWAYS make a return on my investment. So anyone want to take the chance? “

 

“The Winner Takes It All” by ABBA begins to play and no one quite knows how to react when a bearded fellow makes his way down to the ring. It seems the bearded fellow is responding to the challenge.

 

http://imageshack.us/a/img96/8519/o4u0.jpg

 

”Herb do you know who that it is?!”

 

”Some nut who loves ABBA way too much? I’ve seen it all but never thought I’d see a wrestler come out to ABBA!

 

”Of course he likes ABBA. That’s the Swede Slugger, Svensson!

 

”Oh I’m so impressed… Not. Wolfe will destroy this goon.”

George Wolfe w/Ernest Forthdyke-Hume vs. “The Swede Slugger” Svensson

This was one of those old school wrestling matches you’d see in an SWF undercard 30 years ago. Solid fundamentals, decent psychology but absolutely no crowd reaction. While Forthdyke-Hume did his best to get the crowd into it, reacting any time he got near a crowd member in the front of the row, it was as if neither wrestler mattered. Of course, the fact Svensson didn’t say a word when coming out didn’t help either… The Slugger proves his nickname though as he matches fists with Wolfe, but the larger Wolfe uses his size advantage to his advantage as Svensson is caught in a Running Powerslam to lose his debut in MAW.

George Wolfe d. Svensson, Running Powerslam, 7:07, E+

 

”Good effort there by the Swede, but that million dollars stays safe with Ernest Forthdyke-Hume.

 

”What an idiot he is. I’m going to have to talk to my boys and see if they want to win those million bucks themselves!”

 

”After that match, I think the only way they’d win is if they double teamed. But up next, we have another debut in the process. While The Swede Slugger didn’t have beginner’s luck on his side, the Mexican Sensation, El Mitico Jr., might as he takes on Mean Jean Cattley in what is sure to be one heck of a match!”

 

”I think you spoke too soon… Look who’s making their way out…”

Green Day’s Working Class Hero begins to play over the PA system. As usual, the section of the crowd, which Earnest describes as the Proletariat, begins to sing along to the lyrics. “The Proletariat’s Hero” Citizen X makes his way out to the ring accompanied by another young man in sunglasses. X motions for a microphone as the music dies down.

 

“Have you heard the one about the dog and his reflection? One day a dog was walking home after a hunt with a piece of meat in his mouth. He was as happy as could be. To get back home though, he had to cross a stream. As he was crossing it over a plank, he saw his own reflection. Mistaking the reflection as another dog, with another piece of meat, he went to attack the dog. Unfortunately for him, that meat was lost, in the stream and the dog was left with nothing.

 

“That my friends is this man beside me. No, not the dog, but rather the meat. See, the man I have beside me was given the birthname Ernest Youngman. An intelligent man, he entered pro wrestling in the great city of Chicago. He is predicted to become the greatest wrestler since Sam Keith himself. But while he was in their greedy mouths, Supreme and TCW decided to try and chase other pieces of meat. Leaving poor Ernest in that shallow city…

 

“Ernest didn’t get his fair shot just like I didn’t. That’s why he’s come to the Mid Atlantic. And he’s seen the cause, he’s seen the purpose, he realizes now it is not about himself. It is not about me.”

 

X hands Youngman the microphone.

 

“My new name is Citizen Y. I’ve joined with X to declare war on materialism, to declare war on self image, to declare war on anyone who stands in the way of the Proletariat and their success.”

 

“And that success Y? It isn’t for me, it isn’t for you… It’s…” The crowd section known as the Proletariat, and others in the crowd, finish with X… “FOR. THE. PEOPLE!”

 

X drops the microphone as Working Class Hero starts up and the two head to the back.

 

”Did he just refer to Ernest Young- Err… Citizen Y as a piece of meat?”

 

”It certainly seemed that way but how exciting. We have another new tag team here in MAW! As bizarre as X may be, Citizen Y certainly picked the right man to team up with if he wishes to have success here in MAW! A former tag champion in the Coastal Zone, X is no stranger to the tag division nor gold as he also has held both the American and Mid Atlantic championships.”

 

”Yeah. Too bad the Express won’t ever be letting go of their gold.”

Mean Jean Cattley vs. El Mitico Jr.

Match of the night here as Cattley earns it twice in a row with masked luchadors. This is similar to the last month’s match Cattley had with Lucha III with great back and forth action. Mitico however couldn’t seem to get over Cattley’s advantage of having more experience. The end comes when the fourth generation wrestler irish whipped Cattley and went for a back body drop. Unfortunately, the always intelligent Cattley took advantage and hit the Mood Swing Neckbreaker to end a match that had the fans standing on their feet.

Mean Jean Cattley d. El Mitico Jr., Mood Swing, 15:49, D+

 

Great match there as the wily veteran pulls out the win… Wait a minute, where are you going?

As if on cue, Herb Stately gets into the ring to shake Cattley’s hand. Cattley just stares at Herb before dropping out of the ring. Stately, microphone in hand, begins to speak.

 

”Well ignore me if you want Cattley. It might be the biggest mistake of your life. Next month, I expect a decision!!”

 

Cattley continues to ignore Stately heading to the back when Kanye West’s Stronger plays signifying the entrance of the Dynamite Express. The champs block the exit of Cattley who looks like he’s ready to take both on. The tag champs then separate as Syd Collier points at his temple and winks. Cattley heads to the back as the champs make their way down to the ring.

 

”Ladies and Gentlemen, please stand for the MAW Tag Team Champions! Right here is the best tag team in wrestling, managed by the greatest manager in history. Tonight, we end those losers Ace Youngblood and Max Mayhem. As for those other two? Lost Cause?? That’s exactly what they are. Marv, you think putting my men in a triangle match is going to stop them from success you’ve got another thing coming!”

 

Syd Collier takes the microphone and flashes a smile before he starts.

 

“Oh and as for our opponents next month…” Syd pauses before holding up the Hawaiian ‘Shaka’ hand motion. “Aloha gentlemen. Word has it you both were trained by some of the industry’s best… Well, we were trained by THE best. Back when Mid Atlantic meant something, Rip Chord trained us.”

 

“Too bad it means shit now,” Cameron Jones interjects as he laughs.

 

“Yeah. But back when it meant something, we were trained by THE best. So next month, prepare for a lesson. And don’t be surprised if you end up in the hospital.”

 

“Because that’s thing about a Rip Chord protégé,” Jones adds. “We’re the smartest wrestlers in the world and we have the most dangerous move in our arsenal, and the DDT? It can strike from anywhere, any position… So be prepared.”

 

The champs get a mixed reaction as the crowd starts a “DDT” chant, one that has become familiar in the sold out Stanley Hall.

 

”We haven’t seen anyone pull a Rip Chord DDT in MAW since the legend retired and left the business! I’ve assumed the move’s been retired for years now.”

 

”You’d be surprised what my boys can do Marv.”

MAW Tag Team Championships

Dynamite Express © vs. The Aces of Mayhem vs. The Lost Cause

While Earnest and Stately argued the legitimacy of Express using the Rip Chord DDT, the Express tore it up in the ring. As it was triangle tag rules, only two men could be in the ring. The faces were less leery about tagging each other and the Express soon felt the effects in this quick paced match. However, despite this, as Stately put it “four on two match set up to cost the Express their titles,” the champs would prevail. The heels began to cheat, double teaming Keith Vegas. This led to Miller Fforde getting involved as well as the Aces of Mayhem. Will all three teams brawling, and chaos which Jay Fair couldn’t seem to control, this led to Cameron Jones pulling off the Rip Chord DDT on Keith Vegas and getting the pin and the champs retaining the belts.

As the ring clears out, The Copper Gamins’ All Hid plays as Mr. Lucha III comes out for his Rip Chord Invitational rematch. The crowd gives a nice pop for Lucha who brought it to Bret Starr and Jean Cattley last week. Lucha III shows his appreciation for the fans high fiving them and jumps into the ring.

 

“Lust for Life” by Iggy Pop begins to play, signifying the champ is coming out… But no one appears. The music begins again, and once again no music.

 

”Where is the American champ?”

 

”Probably playing another stupid prank on someone! In fact…”

 

Earnest stands up with a house microphone. Jay Fair and Lucha III looks at him confused.

 

”Jay Fair, ring the bell. As far as I’m concerned, if Bret Starr doesn’t come out he forfeits the American championship to Lucha III!”

 

The crowd boos Earnest as the bell rings. Fair begins to count.

 

1…

 

2…

 

3…

 

Suddenly “Lust for Life” plays again and this time a bloodied El Mitico is seen being what looks like tossed out from the backstage area. Following him is Hollywood Bret Starr with his title. He waits for Mitico to stand up before giving him a shot with the belt.

 

”What the hell is Mitico doing out here?”

 

Starr grabs a microphone as Jay Fair has stopped counting.

 

“I knew you’d try to cheat to win. You called over the border to have one of your masked illegals come to MAW to help you steal my title and steal my job? Well that ain’t going to happen Lucha. Not on my turf! And just like I beat this masked moron up, you’re next!”

 

The crowd boos the bizarre behavior of Starr as he makes his way down to the ring. Before he can get in though Lucha comes flying over with a suicide plancha and Jay Fair shrugs and calls for the bell to signify the start of the match.

MAW American Championship

Hollywood Bret Starr © vs. Mr. Lucha III

The crowd lit up for the co-main event of the evening. With the belt on the line and the clearly defined xenophobic Bret Starr “standing up for American values” as Stately put it, the crowd got behind Lucha III. The bloodied Mitico, as Earnest put it, would be awarded a shot at Starr next month because of Starr’s sneak attack. This match was very similar to last month’s as Lucha’s talented once again overmatched the champ. This time, with the belt on the line though, Starr acted much more cut edge. As Lucha was setting up for a piledriver, Starr went low and hit the Starr Maker to get the cheap win, much to the crowd’s displeasure.

”And Bret Starr gets the win showing that with some scouting, he could’ve made it to the finals last month!”

 

”Scouting? That was a low blow! I’m going to make sure he gets fined and have a talk with Jay Fair tonight over that!”

 

”Wow. So that’s cheating but when someone you like does it, it’s considered good tactics?”

 

”I have never approved cheating Herb and you know it! Next up though, we have the 2011 Sam Keith Classic winners taking on the 2012 Sam Keith Classic winners and this folks WILL be a Classic.”

Keith & O’Farraday vs. C-V-2

Main event time and the two teams delivered. Considering this was only Keith and O’Farraday’s second time teaming, and C-V-2’s first time since the 2012 Classic, it certainly was a match that was worth watching. The two teams exchanged action. As it would be, Keith became the face-in-peril early on and would go on to face the quick tags of the more experienced C-V-2. It seemed like every time Keith came close, Vessey or Valentine would distract referee Jay Fair just enough to make him miss the tag to O’Farraday.

 

This went on for a few minutes before finally Keith made the hot tag to O’Farraday. O’Farraday cleaned house, eliminating not only Valentine and Vessey but even tossing Keith with a gorilla press over the top rope at C-V-2. With all three men knocked out on the outside O’Farraday decided to hit the top rope.

 

”IS HE CLIMBING THE TOP ROPE?!”

 

”Boeing 747 taking off!!”

 

”DREADSAULT BY FINDLAY ON ALL THREE MEN!!!”

 

A Holy Shit chant starts as all four men lay outside the ring. Finally Findlay is the first one up and he sends the champ into the ring. However, he’s slow to get into the ring himself and Vessey has recovered in time to hit the Vessey Driver on the much bigger O’Farraday! The crowd can’t believe it and neither can the announce team. However, before Vessey can get the pin comes flying over the top rope with a dropkick to Vessey that sends Vessey reeling back outside. Keith checks on his partner. This gives plenty of time for Valentine to come in and hit the Heart Breaker on Keith. He then motions for O’Farraday to get up and this proves to be a fatal mistake as O’Farraday complies and hits the Atomic Spinebuster bringing an end to the main event.

Keith & O’Farraday d. C-V-2, Atomic Spinebuster, 18:23, D+

 

O’Farraday rolls out to the floor where Vessey was waiting with a steel chair and he cracks it over the head of the RCI winner. With everyone out but Cameron Vessey, the camera fades to black with the Mid Atlantic Champion standing tall, chair in hand. The iconic words of Marv Earnest bring us to the MAW logo…

 

”C-V-2 may have lost this match, but Cam Vessey just put the MAW on notice that he will win this war.”

If there was one thing I forgot that my uncle Peter taught me about the business, it was never ride with staff on road trips… As I mostly worked in Baltimore for over 5 years, I forgot this rule. And since I was staff, I wasn’t sure if it applied to me… But here I was, 11 pm at night, in the back seat of Marv Earnest’s 93 Toyota Camry. Sam Keith had earbuds and was watching what looked Yoshii Shiomi fighting his son Greg in Burning Hammer. Both of Sam’s sons had contracts in Burning Hammer and it peaked Sam’s interest in the Japanese promotion for the first time since he was last employed way back in the late 80s.

 

I left my earbuds at home so I had to listen to Jay and Marv, who were also roommates, talk on the whole way…

 

Where were we headed? New York City. While we could’ve waited until tomorrow for the travel, Sam was never late and as he was the president of COTT, he had to be the first one at the meeting despite the fact it would be in Larry Vessey’s home… And for the next three hours I heard Marv and Jay argue from everything about car ride games to how giving Lisa Bowen the keys to their apartment to feed Sir George, their cat, was the best idea they’ve ever had…

 

By the time we reached New York city I thought I was going to kill them…

As everyone began arriving for the Annual COTT meeting I noticed some oddities in the room. Troy Winner was really a midget. And Phoenix? Well… he always wore his mask. The COTT were true keepers of the Kayfabe. Even the Coastal Zone guys who could get away with breaking kayfabe kept it…

 

Which is why when the meeting the first argument started between Cliff Anderson and Joaquin Soler…

 

”NO. Not in a million years would I want that bastardo working with me!”

 

”Why the hell not? You’ve both been working with the Coastal Zone since I can remember!”

 

”Different circumstances. I have the vetoing right to deny any member who may be a threat to my company and MPWF IS a threat!”

 

”What happened to the draft days when you were all getting along?”

 

”As far as I’m concerned, those days ended back when the draft happened. I want to be the exclusive COTT territory in Mexico. At least for the time being.

 

”Well with that tabled, our next motion was set forth by you Larry? Care to explain why you’d want a rival in the Tri-State area to join us?”

 

”Simple. Pittsburgh Steel Wrestling and New York City Wrestling don’t see each other as enemies but allies. In the end of the day we provide two very unique brands of wrestling, we tend more towards the classic wrestling while PSW looks at the more extreme hardcore brand. We are after two different fans, so why not work together to cater?”

 

”No argument there. And personally, we’ve had a working relationship with Pittsburgh for a while now thanks to my son Matthew. All in favor?”

 

The vote was unanimous and within minutes, two men who had been waiting outside join us.

After congratulations and formalities were over, the meeting continued. A few standard issues, fees that were owed, and trades. Mainly Gregory Black being sent to both Mexico and Canada… Possibly one of the more over guys and versatile workers in COTT, it was no surprise that his talents were called upon… That’s when Mitch Naess piped up.

 

”Gentlemen, there was another reason I agreed to join COTT… See, a few weeks ago I had a dream. A dream where the Confederation returned wrestling to its Golden Age. A dream where it was more than an alliance of trust, but an alliance where we would actually work to build an image of wrestling that became THE standard for the sport. No longer would we worry about… Sports Entertainment. No longer would we care for the ego strokes… Rather, we became united behind the image of COTT and it will all become clear with one event.

 

Apparently Larry was in on this idea as he shut the lights off and a projector flashed on…

 

”August. When TCW and SWF were busy promoting second rate events, I bring you the Confederation of the Territories supershow…

 

....

 

....

 

....

 

The suspense was killing me... Finally...

 

"WHAT!!!"

 

Everyone looked at me upset that I outburst. Being the youngest meant I was also the most impatient.

 

 

"Sorry guys... My powerpoint is acting up. And... there we go.

”Gentlemen, I present… Starrcade.”

 

 

 

[Credit – CQI13 for the logo in his awesome logo thread. Also thanks for the feedback guys! As for SWF and TCW? Hopefully we remain small enough to avoid crippling defeats…]

[Briskout]

Starrcade?? First off, Bret Starr would think it was named after him. Second off, we’re a loose confederation. COTT won’t promote supershows… it can’t!! I can’t wait for Sam Keith to rip him a new one. After all, Sam started COTT. He knew the visi-

 

”YES!”

 

To my surprise, Sam stood up and fist pumped! I think. I was so in shock from Sam’s approval that I nearly cried…

 

Why…

 

WHY…

 

WHY NOT VALENTINECADE?!

 

Okay, it doesn’t have the same ring but still… Suddenly everyone was approving of this event. The idea of defeating SWF and TCW, even if not cash wise, or ratings or anything… it was just an intense moment of agreement. And suddenly the ideas began flowing. A COTT World Title! An interpromotional battle royal!! The Champion vs. Champion matches! Suddenly, it was as if ideas were flowing and I was sitting here all like “I want cake.”

 

I did want cake…

 

But Starrcade?

 

I would have to warm up to the idea. That’s when an interesting discussion came up – there needed to be an on screen President of COTT to travel the territories to announce this. All the men there had prominent roles in their own promotions. Even the president, Sam Keith, was known to own MAW even though he never appeared on screen anymore. Attempts were made to contact The Stomper and Rip Chord, but neither were interested. Chord gave a resounding “**** no.” That’s when Larry Vessey’s doorbell rang… Larry ran off to answer it while the rest of us debated.

 

”What about my uncle Peter?”

 

A resounding laughter came from the room. This is why I don’t bother talking to anyone. My ideas are great. **** Jay Fair man. Talking me down to everyone else. Thinking he’s the man. I should punch him.

 

Yeah…

 

I shou-

 

”Gentlemen, may I introduce you to the new on-screen President of the Confederation of the Territories…”

…Is this a sitcom? Did Dread seriously happen to come to Vessey’s home conveniently during this time? It made no sense… But still, DREAD!!! Holy shit!! And we just had Findlay hit the Dreadsault. To quote that song Thrift Shop… Poppin’ Tags!!

Mid Atlantic Wrestling and the Confederation of the Territories is proud to present

Super Showdown

 

Super Showdown is upon us here in the Mid Atlantic and what an event we have planned! We start off with tag team action as the Champs, Dynamite Express put their titles on the line against Cip Conduit & Penfold Perdition. Herb Stately guaranteed a win last month but whether or not that remains the case is up in the air as the rookies looked impressive last week.

 

Meanwhile, El Mitico Jr was viciously ambushed last month by Hollywood Bart Starr. This month, Mitico gets his revenge, and a title shot as the two go toe-to-toe in a Lucha Libre contest for the MAW American Championship!

 

The newly formed Proletariat consisting of Citizen X and Citizen Y will be teaming up with The Swede Slugger Svensson as they compete in six man action against the Copperhead, The Architect and the always unpredictable King of Charisma, Robbie Wright.

 

In the co-main event of the night, as requested by Casey Valentine, the Cool Hand has stated that he can beat Findlay O’Farraday if given the chance. Fortunately, or perhaps unfortunately for Valentine, O’Farraday was just as eager to sign the contract and the two will fight in an old fashioned Baltimore Street Fight!

 

And the main event features the MAW Championship as the champ, ”The Second Generation Superstar” Cameron Vessey defends his belt against “The Gold Standard” Matthew Keith. The two men, both 2nd Generation Superstars, will be sure to bring something special to the main event. But which family will reign supreme?

 

PLUS: Who will answer Ernest-Forthdyke-Hume’s challenge for 1 million dollars? And what is Mean Jean Cattley’s response to Herb Stately? All this and much much more exclusively on MAW!
