Powell was a top notch worker in his prime, but we're a bit past that now. He tried his best to hang with the much younger and much more mobile Wildside, but he simply ran out of gas, and fell victim to the "Fear Factor" (Diving Double Foot Stomp) at 11:11. Winner: © Sonny Wildside Match Grade: 79 After a quick post-match celebration, Wildside grabbed a mic. Wildside: That was, without a doubt, a very impressive win for me! I can do better though, so how about we get gramps here back to the home and get a little younger competition going for next week? And don't think I've forgotten about you Caballero! I know you've been licking your wounds these past few weeks, and who could blame you after that massive beating I gave you at Hardcore Halloween. Rest assured though, there's plenty more where that came from! </div></blockquote> <div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="YFYc5OT.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/YFYc5OT.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></div> <blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="45557" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div> <div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="EcSP5bA.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/EcSP5bA.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="PnzmqSY.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/PnzmqSY.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></div> Next, Adrian Garcia was backstage with Greg Gauge. Garcia: What are you thoughts going into your match against Devine's mystery man later? Devine's worked for some of the biggest companies in the world, and I'm sure he's still got lots of big-time connections. It could literally be anybody! Gauge: I'm kind of insulted by that question Garcia! Devine may have worked for some of the biggest companies in the world, but I've worked for some of the best! I've worked for several of the premier companies in Japan, as well as in Mexico and Canada. Not to mention, one of the best pure wrestling companies in the world today, CZCW! Now, as far as it being potentially anybody? I say bring it on because I've seen it all! I've faced giants, strongmen, luchadors and everyone in between. I also fought in every kind of hardcore match imaginable in WEXXV and came out on top as the King of Death Matches Champion! There's literally no one he can bring in that I can't handle! Gauge: While I'm not sure the same can be said for him, I am very open to finding out! So what do you say Devine? How about you fight an opponent of my choosing next week? </div></blockquote> <div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="YFYc5OT.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/YFYc5OT.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></div> <blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="45557" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div> <div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="OGK4uLv.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/OGK4uLv.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="brgzr2o.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/brgzr2o.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" />VS.<img alt="zqNJk2t.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/zqNJk2t.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="odl4nrm.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/odl4nrm.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> American Elemental II & Jack Avatar vs. Kamikaze & Fro Sure</div> This match started with some flashy aerial exchanges between CZCW Pacific Champion American Elemental II, and his challenger Kamikaze, that had the crowd in a frenzy. If it was any indication of what to expect for their match at Showdown At Sundown, then they could really steal the show there. However, that fast-paced action was distinctly different from what the match became once CZCW Xtreme Champion Jack Avatar squared off with his challenger Fro Sure. When it became apparent that Fro Sure wasn't going to be able to just out-wrestle Avatar, he resorted to brawling and even some uncharacteristically dirty tactics, such as choking and eye gouging. Eventually, Fro Sure and Avatar ended up outside the ring, where Fro Sure took the advantage and hit the "Sure Thing" (Piledriver) on Avatar. Luckily for Avatar though, it was just on the protective matting and not the exposed concrete. As Fro Sure rolled back into the ring, Elemental II tried to help his partner get back in, but he was stopped by Kamikaze, giving the challengers the count out victory at 15:28. Winners: Kamikaze & Fro Sure by countout Match Grade: 81</div></blockquote> <div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="YFYc5OT.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/YFYc5OT.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></div> <blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="45557" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div> <div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="kjFGbpZ.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/kjFGbpZ.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="qxN4T9c.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/qxN4T9c.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" />VS.<img alt="TXYfd9M.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/TXYfd9M.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="mEcuOdb.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/mEcuOdb.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> "Legion" Scythe & Bear Bekowski vs. Going Coastal</div> This was Scythe's first true in-ring action in a month, obviously excluding his Casket "match" with Colossus at Hardcore Halloween, and it was Bekowski's Coast To Coast wrestling debut. Actually, there wasn't really much "wrestling" in this one, with Scythe and Bekowski opting for the brute force route instead. They tossed Frankie-Boy Fernandes from post to post, only letting up long enough to give him some false hope of being able to make a tag, then stopping him just short to abuse him some more. When they were finally tired of toying with him, they let him go to his corner for a tag. California Love Machine apparently wasn't interested in sharing his partners fate though, so he shockingly jumped off the apron and made a quick exit through the crowd. This left poor Fernandes to endure the remaining punishment alone, before Bekowski finished him with the "Bear Trap" (Bear Hug/ Overhead Belly-To-Belly Suplex Combo) at 10:19. Winners: "Legion" Scythe & Bear Bekowski Match Grade: 75 As soon as the bell rang, Akima Brave charged towards the ring. When Scythe and Bekowski turned and spotted him, he stopped and grabbed a mic. <div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="SYpJQeo.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/SYpJQeo.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></div> Brave: You assholes are barkin' up the wrong tree this time, and I won't take your shit lyin' down! So I'm here to challenge you to a tag team match at Showdown At Sundown. That is if you've actually got the guts to face someone head on, instead of keepin' up this attack in the dark bullshit. Bekowski hands Scythe a microphone. Scythe: Who would dare volunteer to stand against Legion on your behalf? Brave: There's only one man in CZCW who I'd trust to watch my back. Bulldozer Brandon Smith! Scythe paused briefly before accepting. Scythe: Legion accepts your challenge, but first you must defeat my gatekeeper, Cerberus, next week. Brave: That's not gonna be a problem. Brave said smugly. Scythe: Arrogance is blind to the stumbling block Akima. Abandon all hope, ye who enter here! </div></blockquote> <div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="YFYc5OT.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/YFYc5OT.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></div> <blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="45557" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div> <div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="rKqJHUR.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/rKqJHUR.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" />VS.<img alt="1t1cXOU.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/1t1cXOU.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> Roderick Remus vs. Robbie Wright</div> While both Spencer Spade and Prince Pryce were ringside for this one, they clearly had very different intentions. Multiple times Spade had to stop an interference attempt by Pryce, once when Pryce tried to distract the referee and then another time when he tried to trip Remus as he was coming off the ropes. Spade, having seen enough by that point, physically attacked Pryce and the two brawled to the back. With the match finally back to a fair fight, the champs drew first blood in this fued, when Remus hit the Brainbuster Suplex for the three count at 14:50. Winner: Roderick Remus Match Grade: 75</div></blockquote> <div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="YFYc5OT.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/YFYc5OT.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></div> <blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="45557" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div> <div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="0j2JIqU.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/0j2JIqU.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></div> Back from a commercial break and CZCW Champion Darryl Devine was in the ring: Devine: I'll make this short and sweet Gauge. I accept your challenge. I'll wrestle anyone you want next week. I mean, what kind of champion would I be if I wasn't up for a challenge? If I wasn't ready for anything? That's for next week though and right now you have more important things to think about. Namely your opponent tonight. Devine: Now, rumors have been running rampant since last week about who it could be. I've heard everything from your own father coming out of retirement to "put you in your place", to off-the-wall things, like a seven foot tall, masked Sasquatch. Seriously, I actually heard that! The speculation has really been getting out of hand. It's nothing crazy like that though. I just want to see what you can do against one of the best our sport has seen in the past ten, fifteen years. A truly superb all-rounder with a resume to match his skills. So, your opponent tonight is none other than "The Complete Package" Brent Hill! <div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="X630oXH.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/X630oXH.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></div> </div></blockquote> <div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="YFYc5OT.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/YFYc5OT.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></div> <blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="45557" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div> <div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="PnzmqSY.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/PnzmqSY.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" />VS.<img alt="X630oXH.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/X630oXH.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> Greg Gauge vs. Brent Hill</div> Brent Hill is no doubt a superb wrestler. A former 3 time TCW Tag Team Champion, who once held those titles for nearly 18 months, he isn't someone to be taken lightly, no matter how far past his prime he may be. Gauge dodged that potential trap in this one, by going full throttle from the opening bell. He really showed himself to be a student of the game too, targeting Hill's neck, which was badly injured earlier in his career. Eventually though, he turned his focus to the legs and lower back, finally locking in the Proton Lock (Sharpshooter) for the submission victory at 12:39. Winner: Greg Gauge Match Grade: 81</div></blockquote> <div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="YFYc5OT.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/YFYc5OT.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></div> <blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="45557" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div> <div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="0j2JIqU.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/0j2JIqU.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" />VS.<img alt="GX9xHZD.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/GX9xHZD.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> Darryl Devine vs. Ernest Youngman</div> In a dream match for some, and certainly a PPV worthy main event for anyone's tastes, Devine and Youngman put on a great match here. While Youngman focused on hard strikes and various innovative throws, Devine played it a little safer, showing off his superior tactical mind by choosing to work on Youngman's right leg, weakening his base and the very leg that he uses for his finisher, "The Hit". After a long, and fairly even battle, wrestling fans everywhere were robbed of a proper conclusion to this one, when Marvel Malloy interjected himself, attacking Youngman from behind with a chair to hand him a win by disqualification at 18:43. Winner: Ernest Youngman by DQ Match Grade: 89 <div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="KTUfJa7.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/KTUfJa7.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></div> After the match, Malloy continued his assault on Youngman, pinpointing the leg that Devine had just spent the entire match working over. Just when it seemed Malloy was about to stop, he closed the chair around Youngman's right leg and climbed up to the middle turnbuckle. Luckily, before he could jump off and crush Youngman's leg, Devine recovered to make the save, knocking Malloy off the middle turnbuckle and over the top to the outside to end the show. </div></blockquote> Updated Prediction Standings: Rhyme1234:35 Smurphy1014:34 BigJay2003:13 123Kidd: 7 theheel: 5 BHK1978: 4

To prove he can take it as well as dish it out, CZCW Champion Darryl Devine will now take on an opponent hand picked by his challenger for Showdown At Sundown, Greg Gauge, after Gauge had to do the same last week. CZCW American Champion Marvel Malloy will be back in action for the first time since Hardcore Halloween when he takes on Frantic Ali. After the vicious attack on his challenger Ernest Youngman's right leg last week, Malloy will really have to be on his A game to both fight off Ali, and keep an eye out for a potentially vengeful Youngman. That is, if Youngman can even walk this week. Masked Patriot may have failed in his quest to defeat Pacific Champion American Elemental II at Hardcore Halloween, but tonight he'll get another chance at a title when he faces Xtreme Champion Jack Avatar with the title on the line. You may remember that on the episode of Coast to Coast before Hardcore Halloween, Patriot actually pinned Avatar during a tag team match. Can he do it again when it really counts? One half of Double Feature, Roderick Remus, went head to head with one of his challengers for Showdown At Sundown, Robbie Wright, on last weeks episode, coming out victorious. Tonight the other half of Double Feature, Spencer Spade, will face the other half of The Pryce is Wright, Prince Pryce, in singles action. Double Feature may have won the first battle but the war isn't over yet, as Pryce looks to even the score. After Legion selected Akima Brave as their next victim two weeks ago, an enraged Brave demanded to face them in a tag match at Showdown At Sundown with Bulldozer Brandon Smith as his partner. Scythe accepted the challenge but only if Brave could defeat his "gatekeeper", Cerberus, one on one this week. After an entertaining encounter in a tag match last week, CZCW Pacific Champion American Elemental II and his challenger, Kamikaze, have decided to team up this week. Whether it's a sign of mutual respect, or just a potential opportunity for one upmanship, remains to be seen. They'll be taking on the team of Bret Heartbreak and his unlikely, but strangely compatible tag team partner, Motoyuki Miyake. Finally, Sonny Wildside will make his second defense of the CZCW Television Championship. After defeating the talented, but very "experienced", Teddy Powell last week, Wildside declared that he needed some younger competition. He'll get that tonight in the form of former 4C rival, and fellow Canadian, Chris Flynn. </div></blockquote> Match Card: CZCW Television Championship © Sonny Wildside vs. Chris Flynn American Elemental II & Kamikaze vs. Bret Heartbreak & Motoyuki Miyake Marvel Malloy vs. Frantic Ali CZCW Xtreme Championship - No Holds Barred - Falls Count Anywhere © Jack Avatar vs. Masked Patriot Cerberus vs. Akima Brave Spencer Spade vs. Prince Pryce Darryl Devine vs. ????? Bonus Question: Who will Darryl Devine's mystery opponent be? . Author's Note: For anyone predicting the shows, I would like to give you the option of choosing what I call "Option C," for any of the matches. "Option C" is what you would choose to guess finishes like a double count out, double DQ, time limit draws and no contest style finishes where there isn't a clear-cut winner/winners. These types of finishes are a staple of wrestling and as such will occasionally be featured in this diary. With "Option C" on the table predictors will always have a chance to make a correct guess, whether the match has a clear winner or not. To choose "Option C" simply type it next to the desired match and don't highlight a winner.

It wasn't a surprise to see Flynn give Wildside a run for his money though, as these two are very familiar to each other, having previously feuded over the 4C Championship. Unfortunately for Flynn, this match saw the same outcome as both of their 4C Championship matches. Flynn was in control and ready to put this one away with the "Flynn-Lock" but Wildside impressively reversed the attempt into a victory roll for the sudden pinfall. Winner: © Sonny Wildside Match Grade: 80 As soon as the bell rang, Felipe Caballero finally sought his revenge against Wildside for robbing him of the Television Tile at Hardcore Halloween, bum-rushing the champ before he could even get back to his feet. <div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="Do80Ue4.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/Do80Ue4.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></div> Wildside definitely took a beating, and in a very short period of time, but probably not nearly the beating Caballero had in mind, as the referee was able to separate the two just long enough for Wildside to make an escape. </div></blockquote> <div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="YFYc5OT.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/YFYc5OT.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></div> <blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="45557" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div> <div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="SYpJQeo.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/SYpJQeo.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="Msq2cWA.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/Msq2cWA.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></div> Back from the commercial break and Akima Brave and Bulldozer Brandon Smith were conversing backstage, completely unaware that they were being watched.

Smith: Partners? What the f*** are you talkin about? Brave: What am I talkin' about? Are you tellin' me that you don't remember us teaming up? Exactly how many concussions have you had?

Frantic Ali does not suffer fools easily though, and quickly took advantage of Malloy's cockiness, using his superior brawling ability to beat and batter Malloy in the early going of this one. Malloy is too good to stay down for long though, and he came roaring back with some high-flying offense, nearly getting the pin with a Corkscrew Crossbody off the top rope. Once he'd fully regained control, Malloy's superior attitude started to show once more, as he taunted Ali at every available instance. The conclusion of the match came though, when he began to loudly taunt Ernest Youngman, ironically calling him a coward, and guaranteeing that his reign as American Champion was about to come to an end. Suddenly, Youngman's theme music hit and startled Malloy. Youngman didn't actually make an appearance, but Malloy was distracted just long enough for Ali to hit a Death Valley Driver and pick up the victory.

He also made it a point to try and keep the match in the ring, despite the falls count anywhere rule being in effect. The result? One of the least "hardcore" hardcore matches in wrestling history, but a pretty good wrestling match overall. Sadly for Masked Patriot, even with the use of weapons, he was unable to recreate the magic of his pinfall victory over Avatar in tag team action, and Avatar retained with an "All American Slam" (Angle Slam) at 14:41. Winner: © Jack Avatar Match Grade: 81 Avatar celebrated his win to a mixed reaction, an odd occurrence indeed for the usual fan favorite. The reaction wasn't mixed when he was interrupted by Fro Sure though, as the crowd burst to their feet with cheers. <div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="odl4nrm.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/odl4nrm.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></div> Fro Sure: Man, that was weak! The crowd roars in agreement. Fro Sure: Look here, I got all da respect in the world for ya as a wrestler Jack, but ya makin' a mockery of that title. Imma fix that at Showdown At Sundown though, and I can promise ya one thing. Ya better take a likin' to the hardcore style, because ya got no chance of walkin' out the 619 with dat belt if ya don't! </div></blockquote> <div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="YFYc5OT.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/YFYc5OT.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></div> <blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="45557" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div> <div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="Ksph4PJ.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/Ksph4PJ.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" />VS.<img alt="SYpJQeo.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/SYpJQeo.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> Cerberus vs. Akima Brave</div> Akima Brave may have brushed him off as a challenge last week, but Cerberus is a very dangerous human being. Akima learned that the hard way in the early going of this one, as Cerberus dominated the early parts of the match with stiff strikes, dirty brawling, and a few timely cheats. Eventually though, Brave's in-ring experience began to show as he took control of the match by reversing a Piledriver attempt. However, very early into his time on top, the match came to an abrupt end when Bear Bekowski stormed the ring and attacked him. <div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="qxN4T9c.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/qxN4T9c.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></div> Winner: Akima Brave by DQ Match Grade: 74 After the bell, Bekowski and Cerberus began to maul Brave. Their double team quickly became a triple team though, as their leader Scythe made his way to the ring. <div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="kjFGbpZ.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/kjFGbpZ.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></div> After Bekowski hit a running Powerslam on Brave, and Cerberus connected with a DDT, Scythe called for the Chokeslam. At this point, the broadcast went to split screen to reveal Bulldozer Brandon Smith watching the beatdown unfold on a monitor backstage. <div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="Msq2cWA.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/Msq2cWA.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></div> He cringed as Scythe hit a powerful Chokeslam on Brave. With the broadcast now focusing solely on the ring again, Legion began to make their exit from the ring. They got half way up the ramp before they stopped, and Scythe sent Bekowski and Cerberus back to the ring. Once there, they drug Brave out of the ring and up the ramp to Scythe, who throttled him and prepared for a Chokeslam, this time on the steel ramp. <div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="Msq2cWA.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/Msq2cWA.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></div> Suddenly, Bulldozer Brandon Smith marched through the curtain and attacked Scythe. His attack didn't get very far though before Bekowski and Cerberus pounced. Once Legion regained control of the situation, Scythe hit a devastating chokeslam on Smith, driving him into the steel ramp with a sickening thud. </div></blockquote> <div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="YFYc5OT.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/YFYc5OT.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></div> <blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="45557" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div> <div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="OGK4uLv.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/OGK4uLv.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="zqNJk2t.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/zqNJk2t.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" />VS.<img alt="jfRDdOJ.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/jfRDdOJ.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="lPFwBcn.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/lPFwBcn.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> American Elemental II & Kamikaze vs. Bret Heartbreak & Motoyuki Miyake</div> No one really knew why American Elemental II and Kamikaze decided to team up just weeks ahead of their one on one match for the CZCW Pacific Championship at Showdown At Sundown. Once the match was over, everyone was still just as clueless. There were no shenanigans from either man towards his partner. There were no moments of one-upmanship between the two men either. They simply wrestled the match like any "regular" team would have, tagging out as needed and offering each other an occasional word, or cheer, of encouragement. Heartbreak and Miyake, both pegged as future "superstars", have shown themselves to be a formidable team in recent undercard matches, despite their very different in-ring styles. That recent experience as a team didn't really help them on this night though, as Elemental and Kamikaze got a fairly easy win in just under ten minutes with a Reverse 450 Splash from Kamikaze to Miyake. Winners: American Elemental II & Kamikaze Match Grade: 76</div></blockquote> <div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="YFYc5OT.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/YFYc5OT.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></div> <blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="45557" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div> <div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="FFWO079.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/FFWO079.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" />VS.<img alt="NJ4mEK8.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/NJ4mEK8.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> Spencer Spade vs. Price Pryce</div> Unlike last week, neither man's partner was ringside for this one, and the match fared better for it. Spade had the size advantage here and used it to great benefit, controlling the tempo of the match with a ground based offense, effectively limiting Pryce's flashy, aerial repertoire. Spade has charisma to burn, and the fans were mostly in his corner throughout this one. However, once Pryce got a little momentum going and connected with a few of his more eye-popping moves, the crowd went from pro-Spade to neutral, with many fans cheering the talented, but "heel" Pryce. Despite those shining moments from Pryce, the champs would win this second battle as well, with Spade hitting the "Supreme Stunner" (RKO) out of nowhere for the pin at 14:58. Winner: Spencer Spade Match Grade: 83 After the match, Spade offered a handshake to Pryce as he could be heard saying "good match." This obviously surprised Pryce, as he kinda just stood there for a bit not doing anything. At that point, the fans began to cheer on Pryce, repeatedly shouting "shake his hand" in unison. This drew a smile from Pryce and he went in for the shake, but he stopped suddenly, slapping Spade's hand away and then making a quick exit to a chorus of boos. </div></blockquote> <div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="YFYc5OT.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/YFYc5OT.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></div> <blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="45557" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div> <div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="PnzmqSY.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/PnzmqSY.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></div> Back from the night's final commercial break and Greg Gauge is in the ring. Gauge: It's time Darryl, and all I've really got to say is, good luck! You're definitely gonna need it! A foreboding, hard rock instrumental suddenly blasted throughout the arena as the camera quickly snapped to the entrance way, revealing a massive figure stepping through the curtain. <div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="OYTLdLF.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/OYTLdLF.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></div> Gauge: Darryl Devine, meet Killer Shark! </div></blockquote> <div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="YFYc5OT.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/YFYc5OT.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></div> <blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="45557" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div> <div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="0j2JIqU.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/0j2JIqU.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" />VS.<img alt="OYTLdLF.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/OYTLdLF.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> Darryl Devine vs. Killer Shark</div> Killer Shark would be a handful for a man of any stature. Heck, Killer Shark would be a handful for most tag teams. Devine obviously knew this, and spent the first 5 minutes of this match employing a "hit and run" technique. Unfortunately for him, those "hits" never phased Shark and really only served to make him even angrier than he appears by default. So once Shark got his hands on him, Devine was lucky to make it out alive. Surely Devine had never been so easily manhandled in his career, probably suffering as much damage in 3 minutes at the hands of Shark as he would in a 20 minute match with anyone else. If Shark was interested in actually winning, instead of just thrashing his opponent, he could have won this match at any time. Instead, it was Devine who would get the win by disqualification, when Shark attacked referee Francis Long for trying to break up a choke hold in the corner, forcefully tossing Long nearly across the ring. Winner: Darryl Devine by DQ Match Grade: 81 The fact that the match was officially over was of little consequence to Shark, who continued to demolish Devine, hitting his "Big Bite" finisher (Military Press Spinebuster) not once, but twice. When it looked like he was about to go for a third, Greg Gauge rushed into the ring. <div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="PnzmqSY.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/PnzmqSY.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></div> Shocking everyone in attendance, Gauge actually tried to stop Shark instead of joining in. This was not a smart decision, as Shark gave no slack to the man who brought him here, lifting Gauge into a military press and throwing him violently over the top rope to the arena floor. All of this was apparently enough to satiate Shark, as he mercifully left the ring at this point, leaving a pile of bodies in his wake. </div></blockquote> Updated Prediction Standings: Rhyme1234:41 Smurphy1014:34 BigJay2003:18 123Kidd: 7 theheel: 5 BHK1978: 4

Greg Gauge brought in Killer Shark to face CZCW Champion Darryl Devine last week, just ahead of their match at Showdown At Sundown, and things got a little out of hand. Shark gave quite the beating to Devine, which was surely Gauge's exact expectation. However, Shark took things a little too far by attacking the referee and hitting Devine with his devastating finisher, "The Big Bite", multiple times after the bell. When he looked to take it even further, Gauge shockingly intervened on Devine's behalf, only to be hurled to the arena floor cement by Shark with a Gorilla Press Slam. How will this effect the main event of Showdown At Sundown between Devine and his challenger Gauge? Will either man still be able to compete? Where does Killer Shark fit into the equation? Hopefully we'll get some answers on tonight's episode! Felipe Caballero finally got some revenge on CZCW Television Champion Sonny Wildside last week, attacking him after he retained the title against Chris Flynn. However, Wildside managed to escape before Caballero was really finished with him, leaving Caballero anxious for another shot at Wildside. Will Caballero strike again when Sonny Wildside defends his title for the third time against his most formidable foe to date, El Mitico Jr.? Fresh off his role in the severe beatdown of Akima Brave and Bulldozer Brandon Smith last week, Legion member Bear Bekowski will be in singles action for the first time since joining CZCW, when he takes on Coastal Zone legend, Masked Cougar. American Elemental II and his challenger for the CZCW Pacific Championship, Kamikaze, will team up once again for some reason, when they take on The Ring Generals. Also, CZCW Tag Team Champions Double Feature, will team up with CZCW Xtreme Champion Jack Avatar to face their challengers for Showdown At Sundown, The Pryce is Wright and the CZCW American Champion Marvel Malloy in 6-man tag team action. With Double Feature holding victories in back to back weeks over Pryce and Wright in singles action, the challengers really need to prove something here if they want to be taken seriously. Meanwhile, Marvel Malloy may have temporary sidelined his challenger for Showdown At Sundown Ernest Youngman, but that didn't prevent Youngman from costing Malloy his match with Frantic Ali last week, despite not even being in the arena. Will Youngman make his presence known once more? Finally, the # 1 contender to the Xtreme Championship Fro Sure, has said he'll be ringside for this one, looking for any semblance of "extreme" attitude from the not so "extreme" Xtreme Champion, Jack Avatar! </div></blockquote> Match Card: CZCW Television Championship © Sonny Wildside vs. El Mitico Jr. Bear Bekowski vs. Masked Cougar AE II & Kamikaze vs. The Ring Generals Double Feature & Jack Avatar vs. Pryce is Wright & Marvel Malloy . Author's Note: For anyone predicting the shows, I would like to give you the option of choosing what I call "Option C," for any of the matches. "Option C" is what you would choose to guess finishes like a double count out, double DQ, time limit draws and no contest style finishes where there isn't a clear-cut winner/winners. These types of finishes are a staple of wrestling and as such will occasionally be featured in this diary. With "Option C" on the table predictors will always have a chance to make a correct guess, whether the match has a clear winner or not. To choose "Option C" simply type it next to the desired match and don't highlight a winner.

<div style="text-align:center;">AUTHORS NOTE:</div> I've been pondering on making a change to this dynasty for a week or so now, and I've finally decided to go through with it. I really enjoy writing this, but at times, as anyone who's done one of these for any length of time will tell you, it can begin to feel more like work than fun. In an attempt to remedy that, and in an attempt to get shows posted faster, I've decided to do shorter match write-ups and to stop using worker pics for TV episodes. PPVs however, will keep the old format/style. I may still use the occasional worker pic on TV for important debuts and things of that sort and I will still be doing longer match write-ups for more important TV matches, such as title matches, or just matches where I otherwise feel they're necessary. I will also still be doing full promos for TV when/if they're called for. At other times promos will just be basic summaries. Also, the preview/prediction posts for upcoming TV shows will be a lot more basic whenever possible, as I figure anyone who's actually following along wouldn't need as much of a reminder about what happened previously. The full-fledged preview/prediction posts will still be in place for PPV events though. Hopefully after making these changes, everyone who's been reading so far will continue to do so. Thanks! P.S. This first episode will still have a few of the longer style write-ups, since I already had them written before I decided to make the change. ..... ..... ..... <div style="text-align:center;">CZCW: Coast To Coast <img alt="YFYc5OT.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/YFYc5OT.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> When: Monday, Week 1, November 2019 Where: Chula Vista, California Attendance: 11,996</div> <blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="45557" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div> We start the program with Greg Gauge already in the ring, clearly not at 100% after last week. Gauge: I find myself in a familiar situation tonight, once again apologizing for my actions. Though I guess it was more a lack of action this time. I didn't do my due diligence in bringing in Killer Shark to face Darryl Devine last week. If I had, then maybe I would have realized just how far off the deep end Killer Shark had gone. I would have realized that he was way out of control. So, to Darryl Devine, I just want to say I'm sorry. I'm... CZCW Champion Darryl Devine's music hits and he gingerly makes his way to the ring. Devine: Because you stepped in, and took a big hit on my behalf last week, I'm going accept your apology as sincere. But we've got bigger fish to fry! Literally! Something has to be done about Killer Shark, so I put in a request for tonight's main event, and I just found out it was approved. It'll be me and you against Killer Shark, and anyone dumb enough to volunteer to be his partner. Look, I'm sure you're not at 100% after last week, and I'm certainly not, but if you're willing, we'll get a chance for a little revenge tonight. So, are you in?

Mitico is a prideful man though, a fourth generation star with wrestling in his blood, to him any championship is worthy of respect. This was a good back and forth match, with Mitico using lots of chain and mat wrestling, and Wildside going deep into his playbook of over the top moves, including the rarely seen Spanish Fly from the top rope. Unfortunately for Wildside, that wasn't enough to keep Mitico down. Neither was Wildside's finisher, the "Fear Factor" (Diving Double Foot Stomp). It really looked like Wildside had finally ran into a challenger he couldn't get past. That is, until he reversed Mitico's Northern Lights Suplex finisher into a DDT and set up for a second "Fear Factor". As he made his way to the top rope, Felipe Caballero suddenly ran towards the ring. Wildside spotted him though and quickly jumped to the arena floor, before sprinting through the crowd to escape. Mitico wins the match by count out, but doesn't win the title. Winner: El Mitico Jr. by Count Out Match Grade: 85 After the match, Caballero and Mitico momentarily exchange some heated words, with Mitico no doubt upset at Caballero for costing him a chance to win the title by scaring off Wildside. Cooler heads prevailed though and the two shook hands, with Mitico leaving Caballero alone to taunt Wildside with his abandoned TV title. </div></blockquote> <div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="YFYc5OT.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/YFYc5OT.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></div> <blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="45557" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div> <div style="text-align:center;">American Elemental II & Kamikaze vs. The Ring Generals</div> Things didn't go as smoothly this week for the "foes turned friends?" team of American Elemental II and Kamikaze. The Ring Generals certainly deserve some of the credit for that, but it was mostly due to the inevitable implosion of the Elemental, Kamikaze duo. Elemental was taking a beating from both Waldorf and Statler but refused to tag out. By the time he finally had no choice, Kamikaze was so fed up that he refused the tag, instead flipping his partner off and leaving him to the Generals. Waldorf pounced on the opportunity, pinning the Pacific Champion Elemental, after a "Waldorf Salad Toss" (Release German Suplex).

Winner: Bear Bekowski Match Grade: 76 As soon as the bell rang, the arena went dark. When the lights came back up Scythe had joined Bekowski in the ring. However, there was no beatdown of Cougar as we've come to expect from Legion. Instead Scythe was just there to issue an ominous warning to Akima Brave and Bulldozer Brandon Smith for Showdown at Sundown.

Malloy was on top of his game too when, for the second week in a row, Ernest Youngman's music hit. Malloy was able to ignore it this time though and stay focused on the man in the ring with him, Jack Avatar. However, the finish to the match didn't involve Malloy. Instead, it was Prince Pryce picking up the win for his team when Fro Sure finally struck against Jack Avatar, sneakily laying out the Xtreme Champion with a steel chair, allowing Pryce to get the pin. Winners: The Pryce is Wright & Marvel Malloy Match Grade: 78 After the match, Youngman's music hit once more, this time actually startling Malloy a bit. Once it appeared Youngman wasn't coming though, Malloy settled down and had a good laugh. Unfortunately for Malloy it was an ambush, as Youngman had actually been in the front row for the entire match disguised as a fan. Despite having a severe limp from Malloy's attack two weeks ago, Youngman was able to hit the ring and attack the still unsuspecting Malloy. Before things could go too far though, the two were separated by CZCW officials. </div></blockquote> <div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="YFYc5OT.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/YFYc5OT.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></div> <blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="45557" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div> Back from commercial break and everyone's least favorite person ever, Masked Stranger, is standing proudly in the ring. Stranger: I know that no one around here likes me and I've learned to live with that. What I can't live with, is the lack of respect I get around here. It's one thing to be hated, but it's another to be left off of TV every single week. To never get a chance to showcase my skills and I do have skills! So, I decided earlier tonight that I was tired of waiting for an opportunity. I was going to make my own opportunity. So I went to "the powers that be" and demanded a match on tonight's show, and believe it or not they agreed! So, bring on my opponent. I've got my spotlight and I'm ready to shine! At this point a familiar song blasts throughout the arena, and Stranger's face lights up when he hears it. CZCW Champion Darryl Devine was on his way to the ring! Devine grabbed a mic, but before he could speak, Stranger continued. Stranger: Wow, I knew I got through to them, but a shot at the CZCW Champion? I never could have imag... Devine: Let me stop you right there. Are you some kind of moron? I mean, it's no wonder that no one likes you. You're not facing me tonight. Actually, you're not facing anyone. It's time for the main event and you need to leave. You... Stranger: I'm not going anywhere until I get the match I was promised! "Whoa, whoa, whoa guys!" Greg Gauge interjected. Gauge: Actually Darryl, Masked Stranger's right. He does have a match tonight. Our match! Devine seems confused for a moment, until finally, a grin slowly forms across his face. Gauge: He's Killer Shark's partner!! Stranger's cocky expression suddenly turns to abject terror as Killer Shark's music hits and he stomps towards the ring. </div></blockquote> <div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="YFYc5OT.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/YFYc5OT.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></div> <blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="45557" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div> <div style="text-align:center;">Darryl Devine & Greg Gauge vs. Killer Shark & Masked Stranger</div> On paper this was a tag team match, two on two. In actuality though, it was more of a three on one handicap match, as Masked Stranger spent nearly as much time on Shark's bad side as Devine and Gauge did. It began when Stranger wanted to start the match against Devine, but Shark tossed him through the ropes to the outside and started the match himself. It continued when, despite the fact that Shark was single handedly dominating both the CZCW Champion and the # 1 contender, Stranger tagged himself in. Shark was obviously furious at this and floored his partner with a huge overhead chop before leaving the ring. This allowed Devine to cover Stranger for the three count. Winners: Darryl Devine & Greg Gauge Match Grade: 87 The instant referee Francis Long's hand hit the mat for the third time, Shark climbed back into the ring and went after Devine. Devine was able to escape though and he and Gauge could only look on in disbelief as Shark destroyed the only man he could get his hands on, his own tag team partner Masked Stranger. After a couple more huge overhead chops and a Chokeslam, Shark finished off Stranger with "The Big Bite" (Military Press into Spinebuster) to end the show. </div></blockquote> Thanks to Element for reading and predicting!

First up we'll see the CZCW Television Championship on the line, with Sonny Wildside looking to make his fourth successful defense against the man he won/stole the title from in the first place, Felipe Caballero. Caballero has attempted to get some revenge ever since, but Wildisde always finds a way out while taking minimal, if any damage. Can he escape again, this time with the title? Next, it will be Jack Avatar putting his CZCW Xtreme Championship on the line against Fro Sure. Ever since the "powers that be" decreed that the Xtreme Title's name would actually mean something again, and would be contested with no holds barred and falls count anywhere rules going forward, Avatar has refused to play along. He's refused to use any weapons or normally illegal moves, and has made every effort to keep the match in the ring. This hasn't went over well with the fans, and it definitely isn't sitting well with his # 1 contender Fro Sure, who has guaranteed that Avatar won't walk out of Showdown At Sundown with the title unless he "gets extreme". At first it was just words between the two, but it turned physical on the last episode of Coast to Coast when Fro Sure laid out Avatar with a steel chair, causing him to be pinned in a 6-man tag team match. Will this act of aggression force Avatar's hand at Showdown At Sundown or can Avatar escape with his title while still insisting on playing by the rules? Or will Fro Sure's guarantee become a reality? The high-flying CZCW Pacific Champion American Elemental II defends his championship against fellow high-flier, and former friend, Kamikaze. After winning a fatal four way to become the # 1 contender, Kamikaze and Elemental shocked everyone when they began teaming up. It went well the first time, with neither man giving any indication that there was anything to it more than a mutual respect. However, the second time didn't go nearly as smoothly. The trouble started when a stubborn Elemental tried to play "hero ball" by refusing to tag in Kamikaze when The Ring Generals were getting the better of him. It ended when Elemental had no choice but to make a tag and Kamikaze refused, flipping his partner off and leaving him to be finished off by Dean Waldorf. The only question is, can Kamikaze finish off Elemental too? Long before Marvel Malloy won the CZCW American Championship from Ernest Youngman at Hardcore Halloween, the two men had been at odds, mostly due to Malloy's ever increasing dirty tactics. Things got even worse after Malloy won the title, with him attacking Youngman and basically attempting to cripple him by crushing his knee with a steel chair. Luckily for Youngman, Darryl Devine was able to stop the attack. Youngman got a little revenge with some mind games, costing Malloy a match against Frantic Ali and then attacking him after a match last week after being disguised as a fan at ringside. CZCW officials broke it up though, so Youngman didn't get the chance to finish what he started. He'll get that opportunity at Showdown At Sundown though, and Malloy better be prepared for a fight. Legion selected Akima Brave as their next target last month, mauling him backstage. Under the assumption that they were still tag partners after their failed attempt at challenging Double Feature for the Tag Titles, Brave got Bulldozer Brandon Smith mixed up in the whole thing by challenging Scythe and Bear Bekowski to a tag match at Showdown At Sundown. Smith paid for Brave's assumption dearly, when he reluctantly tried to save Brave from a chokeslam on the steel ramp by Scythe, but suffered the fate himself instead. Neither Brave nor Smith have been seen since the attack and rumors are swirling that neither man will be ready to compete. Their absence never stopped Scythe from sending an ominous message their way on the most recent episode of Coast to Coast though, when he warned them "the past is never where you left it!" The CZCW Tag Team Championship will be contested also, when long-time Champions Double Feature, defend against The Pryce is Wright. An impressive victory in a # 1 contender triple threat tag team match that also involved 5-time CZCW Tag Champs The Masked Cats, earned Prince Pryce and Robbie Wright the shot. In singles competition against Spade and Remus on subsequent episodes of Coast To Coast however, Pryce and Wright showed themselves to be a little overmatched, losing both matches. Once they got back together in a 6-man tag match with Double Feature on the other side though, they proved themselves to be worthy challengers after all, having little trouble sustaining success against either man in that environment. Will Pryce and Wright be able to duplicate that success with the titles on the line, or will Double Feature prove that their one on one victories were just a sign of things to come? Finally, in the main event, it will be CZCW Champion "Mighty Fine" Darryl Devine defending once more against the second generation star, Greg Gauge. After Devine successfully defended against Gauge at Reach For The Sky in a Ladder Match, Gauge complained that it didn't prove anything and only a straight up wrestling match would. So at Hardcore Halloween they had just such a match, which ended in a time-limit draw, with Devine holding on in Gauge's Proton Lock for nearly 3 minutes without submitting, just long enough for the limit to expire. After the match, with Gauge convinced he had actually won, things got a little out of hand. Gauge attacked the referee and the ring announcer before taking the ring bell in with the intention of clocking Devine. He thought better of it though and that, along with an apology for his actions, earned him the respect of Devine, and another shot at the title for Showdown At Sundown. From there, a seemingly innocuous challenge from Devine for Gauge to face a mystery opponent, led to something neither man could have imagined. After Devine brought in his old friend Brent Hill to face Gauge, in a losing effort, Gauge reciprocated the challenge for Devine to face a mystery opponent the next week. That mystery opponent turned out to be Killer Shark and that's when things really got out of control. Shark was disqualified for attacking the referee and seemed hellbent on ending Devine's career. When Gauge surprisingly decided to intervene on Devine's behalf, Shark attacked him too. The following week, Shark once again dominated both Devine and Gauge in a tag team match, a tag team match that ended with Shark destroying his own tag team partner, Masked Stranger. With both men being more than capable of holding the top prize for any company in the world, this match was already a toss up. Now, with the threat of Killer Shark looming for both men, who knows what might happen! </div></blockquote> Match Card: CZCW Television Championship © Sonny Wildside vs. Felipe Caballero CZCW Xtreme Championship - No Holds Barred, Falls Count Anywhere © Jack Avatar vs. Fro Sure CZCW Pacific Championship © American Elemental II vs. Kamikaze CZCW American Championship © Marvel Malloy vs. Ernest Youngman "Legion" Scythe & Bear Bekowski vs. Akima Brave & Bulldozer Brandon Smith CZCW Tag Team Championship © Double Feature vs. The Pryce is Wright CZCW Championship © Darryl Devine vs. Greg Gauge .

I know it's kinda frowned upon here to bump a post if you don't have an update, but I'm so far behind schedule posting my next show that I felt it was necessary to let anyone reading know that it's still coming. Some real life things just got in the way, and along with a healthy dose of No Man's Sky and it's Next update, I just got a little distracted.

Anyway, I hope to have Showdown At Sundown posted by Friday afternoon.

PS

Hopefully admitting to playing No Man's Sky won't cost me any readers, lol. I know it's a fairly controversial game.

PSS

Thanks to everyone who has voted for me in the Diary of the Month poll!

CZCW: Showdown At Sundown

When: Wednesday, Week 1, November 2019

Where: San Diego, California

Attendance: 23,000

CZCW Television Championship

VS.
© Sonny Wildside vs. Felipe Caballero

Caballero had waited weeks to really get his hands on Wildside and it showed. He was a house of fire in this one, going at Wildside full throttle from the opening bell. As a result, this was just about as one-sided as a championship match could possibly be, and it seemed like nothing would stop Caballero from taking the gold. When he connected with his Frog Splash finisher and made a cover, everyone in the arena was sure the match was over, but Wildside was just close enough to get a foot on the ropes to stop the count. So, Caballero drug Wildise to the center of the ring to ensure he couldn't get his foot on the rope a second time, and went up top again. Unfortunately for Caballero, Wildisde was able to roll out of the way of the second Frog Splash and to the outside. As Caballero writhed in pain in the ring, Wildside stumbled over to the ring announcer's table, grabbed his Television Title, made a "to hell with it" gesture towards the ring, and headed to the locker room as the referee counted him out.

Winner: Felipe Caballero by Countout
Match Grade: 82

CZCW Pacific Championship

VS.
©American Elemental II vs. Kamikaze

Before the bell rang for this one, Kamikaze asked for a mic.

Kamikaze: I just wanted to say I'm sorry that I walked out on you last week and I'm sorry that I flipped you off. When you refused to tag me in I took it as an insult, but that obviously wasn't your intention. You've actually just got the same problem as I do, you don't know when to quit and you're hesitant to admit defeat. But we were partners, and I had your back so there was no need for you to shoulder the burden all alone. So how about we put all that shit behind us and send these fans home with something to talk about?

Elemental agreed and the two shook hands as the bell rang.

Kamikaze, as he is known to do, threw caution to the wind in his attempt to win the Pacific Championship. Elemental followed suit, and the fans were treated to one hell of a high flying, spot-filled contest and with the way these two were flying around the ring, it was a miracle that neither man was injured. A different kind of injury was sustained at the end of the the match though, a bruised ego for Elemental as Kamikaze reversed an "American Earth Breaker" (Irish Curse Backbreaker) attempt into a Tilt-A-Whirl DDT. A quick trip to the top turnbuckle then led to a beautiful Reverse 450 Splash and the first title of Kamikaze's career.

Winner: Kamikaze
Match Grade: 85

After the match, an elated Kamikaze began to celebrate his first championship win. That victory celebration was cut very short though when an enraged American Elemental II got to his feet and blindsided Kamikaze. Elemental then proceeded to clock Kamikaze with his own newly won championship, before heading to the locker room with the title still in tow.

CZCW Xtreme Championship - No Holds Barred, Falls Count Anywhere

VS.
©Jack Avatar vs. Fro Sure

Fro Sure warned Jack Avatar that he would have to "get extreme" to walk out of San Diego with his Xtreme Championship, but Avatar stuck to his guns, never so much as feigning interest in using a weapon, dirty tactics, or taking the action outside of the squared circle. Fro Sure stuck to his guns too though, throwing everything but the kitchen sink at Avatar, and he probably would have done that too if given the opportunity. Despite those advantages, Avatar just wouldn't seem to stay down. First, it seemed like the match was over when Fro Sure hit the "Sure Thing" Piledriver on Avatar, but Avatar somehow managed to kick out. Then, he put Avatar through the announce table with a diving elbow drop from the apron, but Avatar got a shoulder up once more. Next, he relentlessly beat Avatar with a Kendo stick, but Avatar kicked out yet again. Forcefully ramming Avatar shoulder first into the steel steps couldn't net Fro Sure a three count either. Frustrated, Fro Sure set up for his "Sure Thing" Piledriver onto a steel chair. Avatar managed to escape though and hit his "All American Slam" (Olympic Slam) onto the steel chair instead. Fro Sure showed the same resilience as Avatar had shown so far though, and kicked out just before three himself. Now, it was Avatar who seemed frustrated. Not because Fro Sure had kicked out of his finisher. No, he seemed to be upset at the fact that Fro Sure had landed on the steel chair during the move. He began to murmur to himself, before violently kicking the chair under the bottom rope. By this point Fro Sure had gotten back up and he clotheslined Avatar from behind, knocking him over the top rope and onto the ring apron. Fro Sure then joined him, and in a moment of deja vu, delivered his "Sure Thing" Piledriver onto the apron. Avatar spilled to the arena floor and Fro Sure rolled off to cover him for the three count, winning the championship the same way he had won the # 1 contender Battle Royal to get the title shot.

Winner: Fro Sure
Match Grade: 85

CZCW American Championship

VS.
© Marvel Malloy vs. Ernest Youngman

Youngman may have finally gotten a little hands-on revenge against Malloy on Coast To Coast this week, but he was still no where near 100% for this one. Malloy's attempt to take out the right knee of Youngman a few weeks back, still had Youngman limping pretty severely, and despite a quick adrenaline fueled flurry by Youngman to open the match, Malloy quickly took control by going after that same knee again. Youngman gave it absolutely everything he had, but in the end his knee just wouldn't hold up to the focused onslaught from Malloy, and the referee was forced to stop the match at 10:33 when Youngman could no longer stand.

Winner: © Marvel Malloy
Match Grade: 75

Authors Note:I hated to take the title off Youngman, but he really seems to have hit a popularity wall. A wall that's well below where it needs to be to move further up the card right now. Not to mention the fact that he just wasn't performing as well as I'd hoped as far as match grades. There will definitely be more to come of him in this dynasty, just maybe not at the top of the card unfortunately.

VS.
Scythe & Bear Bekowski vs. Akima Brave & Bulldozer Brandon Smith

Rumors were swirling that Brave and Smith wouldn't be able to compete here. Luckily, rumors is all they were, as both men showed up ready to fight, albeit a little worse for wear than they were when the match was initially signed. Since Brave was a little better off than Smith, he started the match with Bear Bekowski and the two put on an entertaining and hard-hitting brawl for a bit before Brave tagged in Smith. Instead of going for Bekowski though, Smith headed straight for Scythe, barreling into him and knocking him off the apron. As he followed him to the outside, a sudden explosion of fiery pyro shot up from all four ring posts. Scythe had warned Brave and Smith that "the past is never where you left it" and the meaning behind that became clear when Colossus, sporting a menacing new look, stomped towards the ring and attacked Smith.

Winner: Akima Brave & Bulldozer Brandon Smith by DQ
Match Grade: 79

With the match now over as a result of a disqualification, Scythe, Bekowski and the newest member of Legion, Colossus, were joined by Cerberus, and the four men laid waste to Brave and Smith. When it was done Scythe took to the mic with a simple message for Akima Brave.

Scythe: Akima! A man who desires revenge....should dig two graves!

He laughed maniacally before continuing:

Scythe: Abandon all hope, ye who enter here!

CZCW Tag Team Championship

VS.
©Double Feature vs. The Pryce is Wright

Spade and Remus had pretty much all the momentum coming into this one, and they continued that in the early going of this one. Spencer Spade started the match with Robbie Wright and it was all Spade, culminating in a double superkick that saw Spade give way to Roderick Remus. Remus couldn't keep it going for his team though, as Wright used a poke to the eye to escape his clutches and tag in Prince Pryce. Pryce then went on the offensive, using a nice mix of brawling and technical wrestling, with a few aerial moves sprinkled in for good measure, to put his team firmly in the driver's seat. Just as it had with Double Feature though, a tag to a fresh partner actually turned the match back in their opponents favor, when Wright was tagged in and immediately botched a suplex attempt, leading to a near fall for Remus. Remus then had his way with Wright for a bit, much like Spade did earlier in the match, and it appeared Double Feature was on their way to a fairly easy title defense. However, as Remus went for his "Remus Clutch" (Camel Clutch), Wright managed to get onto his knees before Remus could get it completely locked in, and roll backwards into a bridging pin for a sudden and shocking three count.

Winners: The Pryce is Wright
Match Grade: 86

CZCW Championship

VS.
©Darryl Devine vs. Greg Gauge

It was going to be difficult for these two to top their first two encounters, first at Reach For The Sky in September, and then at Hardcore Halloween last month. They were somehow able to though, in a match so flawlessly executed and perfectly paced, that it could be used as a measuring stick for all future wrestling matches. Unbelievably, it could have and should have been even better. But alas, it wasn't meant to be, and there was only one man to thank for that. Unsurprisingly, that man was Killer Shark.

Shark's aggression once again showed no bounds, as he attacked the very man who brought him to CZCW, Greg Gauge, ending this outstanding main event before it could reach a proper conclusion.

Winner: Greg Gauge by DQ
Match Grade: 100

The post-match scene was an all too familiar sight, as the broadcast ended with Killer Shark once again single-handedly dismantling both the CZCW Champion Darryl Devine and his # 1 contender Greg Gauge.
