“Welcome to the Show”

Featuring: Davis Ditterich and Duke Hazzard

The show opens as it does every month with Davis Ditterich, clad in his suit and Duke Hazzard, clad in his jeans and flannel, standing in the center of the ring. They both seem especially excited on this night.

 

Davis: Welcome to the first ever Road to Glory tournament! Tonight, eight men will compete in a one night tournament to determine who will challenge for the MCW Heavyweight Title at Revolution!

 

Duke: And the field of wrestlers for tonight ain't nothing short of outstanding, Davis! Aaron Andrews, Steven Parker, Frankie Perez.....

Davis: Cameron Vessey, Mainstream Hernandez, Matthew Keith, KC Glenn and Ernest Youngman! This night is sure to be great, so without further ado let's get to the action!

 

The fans applaud as the theme of Cameron Vessey hits the system while the MCW announce team exit the ring.

Frankie Perez vs. Cameron Vessey

 

Match Highlights

- Both men looked ready to fight when the opening bell rang.

- Vessey tried to take control using a few underhanded tactics, but Perez put an end to that with some stiff kicks across the chest.

- Frankie controlled the opening few minutes, wearing Vessey down with multiple different strikes. Perez took every chance he could to work over Vessey's right elbow, making it a potential target later on.

- Vessey fought back during the mid-stages of the bout and got a few believable near falls.

- Vessey looked to end the match with a Vessey Driver II, but Frankie wiggled free and took Vessey down with an armbar.

- Perez locked the move in and began to pop his hips upward, threatening to dislocate his opponent's elbow. To avoid the injury, Vessey tapped out.

Winner: Frankie Perez

Time: 13:44

Davis: Frankie Perez moves on! Maybe that loss will quiet Cameron Vessey down a bit.

 

Duke: That's a nice thought Davis, but I don't think it'll slow him down one bit.

- Parker got too comfortable as the match wore on, allowing Youngman to get in a few intermittent offense.

Winner: Steven Parker

Time: 12:20

http://www.wxrobbie.com/MCW/Grades/44.jpg

Davis: Ernest Youngman put out a valiant effort there, but it's the MCW visitor that advances into the semi-finals!

Match Highlights

Frankie Perez vs. Matthew Keith

- Keith wore his opponent down with numerous holds and pinfall attempts.

Steve Flash vs. Casey Valentine©

 

Match Highlights

- Casey Valentine looked arrogant right off the bat. He talked a lot of trash to Steve Flash throughout the match. "Old man" was constantly shouted in Flash's direction.

- Valentine took an early advantage with his youth and quickness.

- Flash was soon able to level the playing field with his experience. He allowed Valentine to run circles around him, tiring the champion out quickly.

- Flash used his experience to take control, wearing the champion down with a lot of strikes and mat wrestling. Valentine was never really in any danger of submitting, but the holds kept pressure on all of his limbs and began to further his exhaustion.

- Flash had command of the match, infuriating Valentine. The champion finally moved to his "anything to win" attitude and hit a thumb to the eye.

- Valentine went on the offensive, but was only ever to string together three or four moves before Flash would counter with a strike or a move of his own.

- The match remained very back and forth for the remainder, neither man getting an advantage.

- Flash got a very believable near fall when he caught the champion mid-air and planted him with a sit out powerbomb.

- Valentine caught a break when he stopped a hurrincanrana attempt from his challenger and turned it into a huge powerbomb. Flash rolled out of the pin attempt at 2 and the champion used this to his advantage. Valentine rushed past Flash, hit the ropes twice and nearly decapitated him with a lariat for a VERY believable near fall.

- Flash seemed to feed off adrenaline as he got to his feet and countered a few strikes before hitting a superkick, followed by a leg capture brainbuster that nearly got him the victory.

- Valentine played a bit of possum as he recovered and hit a low blow, out of Erin Lawrence's view, that allowed him to plant Flash with the Deep Impact and successfully retain his title.

Winner: Casey Valentine (3)

Time: 25:28

http://www.wxrobbie.com/MCW/Grades/67.jpg

 

Davis: Damn it! Valentine couldn't finish Flash off without cheating, but he retains his title! I bet this is going to do nothing but fuel his fire during this "youth movement."

 

Duke: Steve Flash put up a fight, but a shot to the junk will incapacitate any man.

Aaron Andrews vs. Matthew Keith

Match Highlights

- The crowd was eager with anticipation as Matthew Keith and Aaron Andrews stood across the ring from each other, exhausted from their earlier bouts.

- The beginning of the match featured a lengthy and slow paced feeling out process with a lot of mat wrestling.

- Keith emerged with control after seven minutes and began working over Andrews neck and shoulder, certainly prepping him for the Proton Lock.

- Andrews would find the energy to fight back intermittently, landing a few strikes before Matthew Keith would regain his composure and go right back on the offensive.

- Andrews had numerous near falls with school boys, small packages and other very innovative pinfall attempts.

- Around the ten minute mark, Andrews found himself caught in the Proton Lock and on the verge of tapping out. He fought his way to the ropes and caused a break, but Keith held on to the last second.

- Keith got caught napping as Andrews landed a surprise kick to the back of the head, opening the door for a burst of offense.

- Andrews fought furiously, landing numerous suplex variations.

- Aaron tried to hoist Keith up for the Ace Driver, but Matthew slipped free and tried to pull Aaron to the mat and into the Proton Lock again. Andrews rolled through and hit a superkick on Keith as he got to his feet.

- Andrews countered another attempt at the Proton Lock and pulled Keith to the mat, latching onto Keith's own move. Matthew fought his way to the ropes to avoid submitting to his own move.

- Andrews avoided a lariat attempt and planted Keith with the Ace Driver, but his opponent kicked out of the pinfall attempt.

- Andrews acted immediately and locked the Proton Lock in once again. This time, Keith was inches from the ropes when Andrews pulled him back to the center of the ring where Matthew submitted to avoid further injury.

Winner: Aaron Andrews

Time: 16:40

http://www.wxrobbie.com/MCW/Grades/53.jpg

 

Davis: Aaron Andrews has done it! Andrews makes Matthew Keith tap out to the Proton Lock to win the 2014 Road to Glory!

 

Duke: Matthew Keith has to feel a little embarrassed about that one!

Davis: More importantly, Aaron Andrews will challenge for the Heavyweight Title at Revolution! Andrews could get another shot at Casey Valentine! That's all the time we have tonight folks. For Duke Hazzard, I'm Davis Ditterich saying good night and be sure to join us next month, streaming right here on MCW Online! Good night!

Just a quick OOC question here. How did you all like the new match format?

[Emark]

I think it works well. Too bad only 18 showed. These are high quality matches for a federation in its infancy.

Like I said earlier, I'm not used to doing a 0 pop game from the get go. I normally come in with a Small sized company that is on the cusp of Regional and go from there. The small attendances are a bit to get used to, but they should begin to jump up as I gain popularity. Thanks for the feedback.

<table width=60%><tr><td colspan=3>

On July 5th, we all gathered in the living room of our humble abode to have our monthly business and creative meeting. We spent the first couple of hours reviewing Road to Glory; speaking on its high points and low points and trying to decide what we could do to be better going forward. Having the extra talent on the show was nice, but we had hoped that they would draw in more fans. It got us back up to our highest gate of 18, but that still wasn't what we were really looking for. We did consider that our website had gotten more hits and it seemed like the live stream had been watched by a number of fans and the video had been viewed almost 50 times since the show came to an end. We still had an internet fanbase that couldn't make it to our shows, but that wasn't making us any money in the here and now. As great as it was to have the extra guys in for the last two shows, I was personally a little relieved to be back to our regular roster. Per the agreement I had made with the guys about the extra talent, I was forking out almost a grand per man per show out of my own pocket and it was nice to not be spending my savings again. We spoke about the creative plans we had going into our next show and were pleased with how the two main stories we were going with had developed. The "Youth Movement" between Casey, Cameron and myself was about to get interesting and I pitched an idea that caused the others to scratch their head. We discussed it at length and I assured them that it was something that I wanted to go through with, feeling that the long term benefits would further the history of MCW. I also spoke with them about a potential new hire that had just been released by SWF. The guys were worried about his asking price and were surprised to hear that he was only asking for a per show rate that was within our price range. We agreed to bring him in, which was a good thing, because I had tentative plans for him to be at the Road to Glory, but figured that I had better wait to discuss it with the guys first. We settled on our July event's name, Afflicted Glory, and then began to go over the end of the month report I had prepared.</td></tr>

Midwest Championship Wrestling presents Afflicted Glory*

From the Moose Lodge in Colfax, Iowa

July 28th, 2014

 

Last month at the Road to Glory Aaron Andrews defeated three men to win the first ever tournament. He outlasted the likes of Mainstream Hernandez, Steven Parker and Matthew Keith to earn a guaranteed shot at the MCW Heavyweight Title at Revolution in September. Casey Valentine also scored a huge victory, successfully defending his title against Steve Flash. The win is sure to give a lot of momentum to his "youth movement." Will either Andrews or Valentine speak out about their victories? This month, both men will be in action and only time will tell if their paths cross at Afflicted Glory. Casey Valentine will defend his title against Ernest Youngman while Andrews will take on a man making his MCW debut, fresh off a contract with one of the big companies. Who will this man be?

Duke: There's only twenty people here? I don't have my boots off to finish counting, so I wouldn't know!

 

Duke nudges Davis a bit and winks, indicating the crack was a joke made at his own expense.

 

Davis: Duke, you don't have to be able to count to see some great wrestling tonight! Casey Valentine will defend his Heavyweight Title against a young man who has quickly turned some heads in MCW. Ernest Youngman has been on fire as of late!

 

Duke: Y'all got that right. And don't forget about Aaron Andrews and our mystery man! Who could it be?

 

Davis: That's right! MCW has confirmed that a new wrestler will debut in the ring tonight against Aaron Andrews! And they have also reported that he was recently released from a contract with one of the big companies! Are you ready to start the show, Duke?

 

Duke: I'm as ready as a fat kid in a buffet line!

 

Davis: Then let's start the show!

 

Davis and Duke exit the ring as some familiar music hits the system.

"The Wrong Side?"

Featuring: Aaron Andrews, Casey Valentine, Cameron Vessey and ???

 

The crowd boos as the music is recognized as that of Casey Valentine, the MCW Heavyweight Champion. Valentine saunters through the curtain clad in street clothes; a button up shirt, dressy jeans and has the title belt resting on his shoulder. He slowly makes his way to the ring, sans Cameron Vessey, and grabs a microphone from ringside before climbing into the ring. His music fades and he allows the small round of boos to subside before speaking.

 

Casey: Here we are again in Colfax, the outhouse of the Midwest! And it smells like it hasn't been cleaned in years. You people can boo me all you want, but it doesn't change the fact that last month my youth movement achieved one of its greatest victories in our quest! Steve Flash, the independent scene's sweetheart; the man that was more deserving of a shot in the big leagues but never got it. At forty-seven years old he stepped into the ring with me and I pinned his ass in the center of the ring and walked out of the Road to Glory with my title intact! You see, Steve could have paved the way for guys like Cameron Vessey and myself. Steve Flash absolutely deserved his shot in TCW, or SWF or any other top company in this business but he never fought for it! He could have stood up and done exactly what I am doing and lead a movement to inject new blood into the decaying bodies of the kings of the wrestling industry. But he just stood back and took his licks in NYCW, waiting for one of the top dogs to come calling. But they never did! Steve Flash allowed himself to be held back, just like Cameron and I were. But we're better than Steve Flash because we're making a stand to get what we deserve! You know what? Steve Flash has become just as much of a problem as Tommy Cornell and Richard Eisen have! A few years ago, he stepped into MAW, a promotion with a long standing history of getting guys ready to move up to the next level, and won the Rip Chord Invitational! He stole the spotlight from one of MAW's young talents! Steve Flash is a piece of sh--

 

The crowd cheers mildly as Aaron Andrews' music hits the system. Aaron pushes through the curtain and stops in the entrance way, holding a microphone of his own.

 

Aaron: Would you just shut up?! I can put up with you bad mouthing Tommy Cornell, but you will not disrespect a man like Steve Flash! Steve has helped more young guys by staying on the independent scene than Duke Hazzard can count with his shoes off!

 

Andrews doesn't see, but behind him Cameron Vessey has crept through the curtain and is approaching.

 

Aaron: Now I am sick and tired of hearing you, month in and month out, come out here and talk about this damn "youth movement." You and Cameron are nothing but two ungrateful bastards that never listened to what Rip Chord had to say when you were in MAW. You and Cameron don't deserve anything! Hopefully, next month when I beat you for that title it will--

 

Suddenly, Cameron pounces. He blasts Andrews from behind and sends him tumbling down the aisle towards the ring. Andrews tries to get to his feet, but Vessey strikes again with a forearm that staggers Andrews to the ring. Cameron rolls Andrews into the ring before climbing in himself and stalking the staggered man from behind. Valentine and Vessey allow Andrews to get to his feet and circle him. They look ready to attack when a man in street clothes hops the barrier, wielding a steel chair and slides into the ring. The man's face is masked by the hood from his sweatshirt as he swings the chair at Valentine and Vessey, causing them both to spill to the outside of the ring. Andrews stands across the ring from the mystery man, leery of his intentions. Andrews relaxes a bit as CV2 back up the ramp slowly and the hooded man drops the chair and asks for a microphone. He leaves his hood up and looks to the canvas as he speaks.

 

???: Casey, I came from a place and a situation just like you. I was a hot prospect, maybe the best one there was, but I was never invested in. Peter Michaels brought me up from RIPW a month before my contract expired and buried me on SWF television. He told me it was a financially driven decision that they would not be renewing my contract. I was humiliated in the biggest company in the world and almost guaranteed that I'd have to start from the bottom up again. You have come out here and complained about USPW and how they were mistreating you. SWF mistreated me and I took the licks. SWF pushed me off the ladder and waved to me as I fell. Do I feel I was wronged? You're damn right I do! But what you do in that moment; whether you pick yourself up and brush away the dust or cry like a bride that was left at the altar is what defines you! I don't mean to ruffle the satin of your wedding dress, but I'm here to clean myself up and start doing what I love to do; wrestle.

 

The mystery man finally raises his head, looks down the entrance way at CV2 and slowly removes his hood.

Spencer Spade

 

Spencer: My name is Spencer Spade and you can shove your youth movement straight up Cameron Vessey's hairy white ass!

 

Spencer looks across the ring to Aaron Andrews and extends his hand. Andrews shakes it as Vessey and Valentine throw a miniature fit before retreating through the curtain.

http://www.wxrobbie.com/MCW/Grades/63.jpg

 

Davis: Spencer Spade! Spencer Spade has come to MCW!

 

Duke: You reckon that's Andrews' mystery opponent?

 

Davis: I would have to figure!

"I'm Your Guy!"

Featuring: Jamie Atherton

 

Jamie Atherton makes his way to the ring to little reaction from the crowd. He snatches a microphone up from ringside and enters the ring.

 

Jamie: After seeing what just transpired I needed to make my intentions clear. The youth movement that is in effect in thanks to Cameron Vessey and Casey Valentine is exactly what this business needs! CV2 have gotten themselves off to a good start, but what they need now is numbers. I'm offering my services to the youth movement and will prove my worth to Casey and Cameron in our tag match!

Again, there is little to no reaction from the crowd as Atherton tosses the microphone to ringside and prepares for his match.

http://www.wxrobbie.com/MCW/Grades/33.jpg

 

Davis: Jamie Atherton may not know what he's getting into with that offer!

 

Duke: You think they'll take him in, Davis?

 

Davis: I guess we'll have to see in this match.

KC Glenn and Nigel Svensson vs. Cameron Vessey and Jamie Atherton

 

Match Highlights

- Jamie Atherton was given his chance to prove himself to Cameron Vessey as Cameron barely tagged in all match long.

- Svensson and Atherton started the bout out with Nigel placing Atherton in some creative submission holds.

- Nigel dominated the opening five minutes, causing Atherton to scramble to his corner and look for a tag from Vessey, which he wouldn't get.

- Glenn and Svensson tagged in and out frequently, keeping themselves fresh.

- Atherton hit a few desperation moves that sent Glenn reeling. This is where Vessey tagged in and wrestled for as long as it took Glenn to recover. Vessey tagged back out as soon as Glenn and Svensson started going back on the offensive.

- Atherton was a sitting duck when Glenn hit the Tune Up The Sunshine Band and got the pinfall.

Winners: KC Glenn and Nigel Svensson

Time: 11:43

http://www.wxrobbie.com/MCW/Grades/50.jpg

 

Davis: I don't think Atherton will be joining Valentine and Vessey anytime soon!

 

Duke: Vessey really hung his partner out there and dangled him like a piece of meat!

"Rejection"

Featuring: Cameron Vessey and Jamie Atherton

 

Post match, KC Glenn and Nigel Svensson have left the ring after a minor victory celebration and are returning to the back. Inside the ring, Cameron Vessey stands in front of Jamie Atherton as he climbs to his feet following the loss. Atherton nervously smiles at Cameron and slowly extends his hand. Cameron looks at it for a few moments before extended his own. In the blink of an eye Vessey has pulled Atherton in, hoisted him onto his shoulders and planted him with the Vessey Driver II. The crowd boos as Vessey stands up and stares at the motionless body of Jamie Atherton before shaking his head and climbing from the ring.

http://www.wxrobbie.com/MCW/Grades/28.jpg

 

Davis: I guess Jamie Atherton got his answer! I think a simple "no" would have been sufficient there!

 

Duke: Davis you know better. That just isn't Vessey's style.

Morgan Malone vs. Davis Wayne Newton

 

Match Highlights

- Morgan Malone seemed out of his league in this one, but came out of the gate furiously. He got in a few decent licks on Newton, but his offense was short lived.

- Malone took Newton over with a series of arm drags and hip tosses but when he attempted a sunset flip, Newton didn't go down. Davis simply landed a swift kick to the chest that halted Malone's flurry.

- Newton took control of the match and began to wear down his opponent.

- Newton saw his opportunity and hit the Fisherman's Suplex for the pinfal.

Winner: Davis Wayne Newton

Time: 5:28

http://www.wxrobbie.com/MCW/Grades/46.jpg

 

Davis: I don't think there was much question about that victory.

 

Duke: Davis had that match well in hand and gets a solid victory.

"K-Squared" Kenny Kuntz vs. "The Architect" Bradley Wright

 

Match Highlights

- Bradley Wright took control off the bell, turning a collar and elbow tie up into a hammerlock.

- The two exchanged simple holds such as wristlocks and headlocks to open the bout.

- A fast paced sequence followed with Kenny Kuntz using his smaller size to get ahead of Wright. The sequence saw a lot of arm drag variations and a hurricanrana that got a near fall.

- Wright stopped Kuntz's momentum with a huge back elbow that sent Kuntz down.

- Wright began wearing Kenny down, but Kuntz wasn't going without a fight.

- Wright sent Kuntz into the corner and backed to the opposite side of the ring. When Wright charged across the ring, Kuntz came out of his corner and hit a vicious superkick that netted him the pinfall victory.

Winner: Kenny Kuntz

Time: 10:01

http://www.wxrobbie.com/MCW/Grades/33.jpg

 

Davis: A hard kick to the jaw is enough to secure victory for Kenny Kuntz!

 

Duke: He may have temporarily knocked Bradley out.

"Friends?"

Featuring: Aaron Andrews and Spencer Spade

 

Backstage, we see Spencer Spade stretching for his match during the main event. Aaron Andrews approaches from the right.

 

Aaron: Hey Spencer, I just wanted to thank you for your help earlier tonight.

 

Aaron extends his hand to Spade. Spencer finishes his stretch as he gazes at Andrews before accepting the handshake. As they shake, Spencer quickly throws up a finger.

 

Spencer: I just want to make it clear that this does not make us friends. What happened earlier tonight was a fellow wrestler with a common hatred for two certain youths. In a short while you and I are going to step across the ring from one another and we will be competitors. I am here to do what I love; to wrestle. Now I'm not going to come running every time you get into trouble, but if Casey Valentine and Cameron Vessey are doing something any amount of questionable, I'll be there to take care of them. As long as you understand that, we won't have any problems. Are we clear?

 

Aaron Andrews nods, agreeing with the words that Spencer Spade has just spoken.

 

Aaron: I understand. I'm not looking for any friends. Just allies to stand with me against this god forsaken youth movement. It sounds like you're looking to do the same. Good luck out there tonight.

 

Aaron and Spencer release their hand shake and Andrews turns to walk away. Before he is out of reach, Spencer places a hand on his shoulder.

 

Spencer: I don't need luck.

 

Andrews nods and walks away as Spencer Spade continues his tretching.

MCW Heavyweight Title

Ernest Youngman vs. Casey Valentine ©

 

Match Highlights

- Youngman and Valentine started off with a lengthy feeling out process.

- The pace quickened through a series of chain wrestling sequences. Each man had a series or two end with him getting the upper hand on his opponent.

- As the match progressed the champion began to get frustrated and started looking to bend the rules to get the match in his favor; a illegal choke held to the count of 4 here, a thumb to the eye there.

- Valentine took control and came back to playing nice, using straight wrestling to wear down Youngman.

- Valentine went on a stretch of ten to fifteen pinfall attempts, strictly to force Youngman to lift his shoulders off the mat and effectively tiring himself out.

- Youngman pounced at his first opportunity, rolling Valentine up with a small package and following the pinfall escape with a step-up enziguri followed by a Backdrop Driver for a believable near fall.

- Valentine was visibly becoming frustrated and was launching sloppy attempts and regaining control, which only helped Youngman with his offensive set.

- The fight spilled to the outside following a clothesline over the top rope that ejected both men to the floor. MCW Official Erin Lawrence made her count-out, but both men took turns rolling into and back out of the ring to reset the count.

- The battle outside lasted about four minutes and ended with Valentine in firm control, rolling Ernest back into the ring.

- Valentine began methodically stalking his challenger, taking a very slow and calculated approach; every attack was targeting the head and neck, setting Youngman up for the Deep Impact.

- Youngman made one last push for victory as he landed a fury of offense with numerous high impact moves, capped off with a Packaged Piledriver that got a very believable near fall.

- Valentine hit a low blow out of view of Erin Lawrence and was able to hit the Deep Impact to secure the pinfall and a successful defense of his title.

Winner: Casey Valentine (4)

Time: 23:30

http://www.wxrobbie.com/MCW/Grades/62.jpg

 

Davis: Ernest Youngman shouldn't feel bad about that loss! He fought valiantly!

 

Duke: And it was a low blow that ended his chances.

"Front Row Seat"

Featuring: Casey Valentine and Cameron Vessey

 

Cameron Vessey emerges from the back, running to the ring to celebrate with his partner. He slides into the ring and raises Casey Valentine's arm to present him as the victor, bring a small chorus of boos from the crowd. As the celebration terminates, CV2 exit the ring but do not begin heading to the back. They retrieve chairs from near the announce table and set them up next to Davis and Duke.

http://www.wxrobbie.com/MCW/Grades/45.jpg

 

Davis: It appears as though CV2 want to get a front row seat of their two biggest threats!

Aaron Andrews vs. Spencer Spade

 

Match Highlights

- As the match commenced into a feeling out process the presence of Valentine and Vessey at ringside served as a distraction to both competitors.

- Spade had obviously scouted Andrews' in-ring tendencies prior to the match as he was able to match wits with Aaron in the opening minutes.

- Andrews adapted his techniques and was soon able to land some offense on Spade. It was always short lived as Spade would adjust quickly and take control of the bout.

- Spade worked over Andrews' entire body while Aaron worked over Spencer's head and neck specifically.

- The two went through a fast paced exchange for nearly five minutes featuring numerous creative take over maneuvers, arm drags, strikes and attempted impact moves before each man went for a drop kick and they ended the sequence in a stale mate.

- Andrews finally got his chance as Spade charged at him from across the ring. Andrews dropped to the mat, pulling the top rope down and causing Spade to spill to the floor. Andrews took the ropes opposite of Spencer Spade and gained a head of steam, leaping between the top and middle ropes with a dive to the outside that caused both men to crash to the floor. They briefly brawled outside of the ring, but made it back into the ring before being counted out.

- Andrews kept looking for his Ace Driver but Spade was able to wiggle free and avoid the move.

- As they crossed the twenty minute mark Spade ducked a clothesline from Andrews and slammed on the brakes. He leaped over Aaron's back, turned and nearly decapitated his opponent with a lariat that got him a believable near fall.

- Spade could feel the match falling into place for him as he landed strike after strike, rendering Aaron Andrews woozy. Spade looked to hook Andrews up for a suplex variation, but Aaron slipped free and fell behind Spade.

- With Spade taking a second to figure out where Aaron had landed, Andrews hooked Spade's head and planted him with the Ace Driver to get the pinfall victory.

 

Winner: Aaron Andrews

Time: 24:05

http://www.wxrobbie.com/MCW/Grades/59.jpg

 

Davis: What a match! Andrews comes out victorious. What did you think of that Casey?

 

Casey: Shut your mouth. Neither of those guys came close to the performance I put on tonight!

 

Duke: Sounds like somebody is a little worried about their title.

 

Casey: Davis, tell your damn hick friend to shut up. Now, if you'll excuse us....

"Tension"

Featuring: Aaron Andrews. Spencer Spade, Casey Valentine and Cameron Vessey

 

Aaron and Spencer had fallen motionless to the mat as they tried to quickly recover from their bout. As they were catching their breath Casey Valentine and Cameron Vessey left their chairs near the announce table and approached the ring. As CV2 climbed onto the apron Andrews become aware of their presence and quickly gets to his feet. He gazes across the ring as Casey and Cameron enter the ring and slowly make their way across the ring. Spencer Spade has also risen to his feet and stepped to be side by side with Aaron Andrews. The four men come face to face; Casey and Aaron; Cameron and Spencer. A few inaudible words are spoken between Valentine and Andrews before Andrews points to the crowd and raises a fist into the air. The small crowd cheers a bit as Valentine stares down Andrews and repositions the MCW Heavyweight Title in his hands. Slowly, Valentine raises the belt into the air bringing a round of boos from the fans in attendance. The four men remain locked in their stare down for numerous moments.

http://www.wxrobbie.com/MCW/Grades/43.jpg

 

Davis: You can cut the tension with a knife! There is no love lost between these four men and Spencer Spade hasn't even been in MCW for a full night! That's all the time we have tonight folks! Join us next month for the final stop before Aaron Andrews and Casey Valentine meet in the main event of Revolution! For Duke Hazzard I'm Davis Ditterich saying good night from MCW!

Just a quick update guys. My next post will be the end of the month report, but my copy of Photoshop, which I use for the financial reports, deactivated and I hadn't been able to get it working. I just bought the newest edition of PS quickly before bed, so I should have a new post up tomorrow. Thanks for hanging in there with me!

Casey, Cameron, Davis and I met on the 5th of the month as we always did to talk about the past month's business. We began by giving our personal analysis of the show, which always turned into a long drawn out discussion of what could be done better in the flow of the show, the organization of segments and other things. But as we had numerous times in the past, we all became road agents making notes about each individual match on individuals strengths and weaknesses. It was no secret that I was still very much a rookie to booking shows and I did not have a lot of experience pairing up guys that would compliment each other's styles. We were still cranking out decent shows, thanks in most part to our main event scene, but we knew we could be doing better. We hadn't gone into panic mode because the quality of our shows was still much higher than they should be at our level. we still had a lot of time to fine tune our presentation and delivery as we continued to run shows. We transitioned into our long term plans for our shows and spoke about Greg Gauge. The program between he and Ernest Youngman had gotten off to a slow start and once we finally started investing more time into the story, Greg's other contract with GCG began to impede our schedule. He had been unable to appear the last two shows due to being in Japan. On the flip side, Spencer Spade's debut opened a lot of doors for us creatively and we talked in depth about the plans with him. After we beat that conversation to death, we moved into our monthly business and news reports.
