[CVerse] GSW: Guess who's back, back again...

John Lions · August 4, 2018

Just took the time to read this, glad I did. I have no idea how you're able to keep all of these different dynasties fresh and up to date but I'm not going to complain!

GSW Anarchy 2016 card

Madman Boone vs Magwitch (Ultimate Deathmatch)

Magwitch is bad backstage and nothing special in the ring, if he can stay chill for a while and prove he can hang with a guy like Boone here then he may get this win 6 months or so from now

E-Soteric vs Devyn Retribution (Death's Door match)

Not a lot of data to go on. From what I can tell, the crowd doesn't give a rat's ass about Devyn. Both men are jobbers, but a jobber has no value if the crowd doesn't care

GSW Tag Team titles match: State of Destruction vs Brown Pride (Barb Wire Weapons match)

Brown Pride are on, as you said, borrowed time. But if you don't spice things up a bit now, who can reasonably take on State of Destruction? I give it to Brown Pride due to your lack of teams. Mexico's Finest will definitely get involved.

GSW West Coast title match: Omar vs Hard-1 (Death's Door match)

Straightforward first defense

Mexico's Finest vs Deaf Touch (West Coast Deathmatch)

Deaf Touch, ratings wise, has been your best guy in ring by a non-insignificant margin. Also, if Mexico's Finest gets involved in the tag match, there could be some retribution for him

GSW American title match: Cali Slick vs Busta Capp vs Fro Sure (Barb Wire Weapons match)

Making it a triple threat lets Capp get lose without hurting his credibility. After Ace's title loss + firing, Slick losing here would turn Citizen X into the undisputed worst manager of all time, yeah? Raheem Stash gets involved, either before or during the match

What can I say, I really like TEW and writing out my games on these forums. This has led to familiarity and experience with both booking and writing, so the result is I'm able to pump out a fair share of content. If said content is deemed both fresh and plenty, that makes me a happy man.

GSW Anarchy 2016

Held on February 2016 at The Warehouse in South West U.S.

Attendance: 497, Show Rating D- 40

<img alt="67hVsEO.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/67hVsEO.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></div>

As usual, Little Miss Sunshine seems cheerfully oblivious to the atmosphere of the Warehouse and the rowdy GSW audience, making her way to the ring as if this was the most family friendly, sports entertainment promotion in the world.

"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to GSW Anarchy 2016! To start off the show, please help me welcome a living legend of the industry, mister Madman Boone!"

<div style="text-align:center;">http://i145.photobucket.com/albums/r219/jkeats/Madman%20Boone.jpg</div>

Boone makes his entrance, this time wearing a t-shirt that reads "Pain=Pleasure" written using a blood-stained font. He doesn't seem to be in a good mood, not waiting for Little Miss Sunshine to interview him but instead grabbing the mic out of her hands to talk.

"I came here for one reason, to inflict and receive pain! To show everyone what hardcore extreme wrestling really means! Now, I was told my first match would be against some psycho who dresses up as a clown and does all kinds of crazy things in the ring. I said fine, bring it, do your worst, Ultimate Deathmatch. But now I walk out here and see no setup that would imply even a basic Deathmatch. No barb wire on the ropes, no glass sheets, no gas canisters... If this is some kind of clown joke, I ain't laughing!"

Madman Boone vs Magwitch

Last Blood match</div>

Upon announcement, the "Last Blood" stipulation is further explained as "the only way to win is to cause your opponent to bleed so much that they pass out". Once the bell rings though, it seems that both men are more happy to take the hits than dish them out. Weapons are swung not really with the intention to hurt, but to provoke an even harder retaliation. That said, after the initial Japan-esque standoff, the two men go into full hardcore insanity mode, using everything at their disposal to hit each other in a whirlwind of blood, sweat and barb wire. It only takes five or so minutes for the brawl to climax into the final spot of Boone hitting an STO that drives Magwitch face first onto a bed of nails, with Boone as well catching his fair share on one arm and shoulder but still managing to somehow stand up while his opponent wheezes in a pool of blood and puke.

Winner: Madman Boone

E-Soteric vs Devyn Retribution

Death's Door match</div>

Devyn Retribution once again gets a rather indifferent reaction from the fans who don't seem to care for or buy his goody two shoes babyface act, but this in turn has them cheering for every move E-Soteric hits to hurt him. Devyn's offense is limited to the most basic of strikes and moves, never really amounting to much as E-Soteric is quick to turn things around and pummel him to a pulp thanks to his explosive brawling. Clearly in control of the match and confident about his imminent win, E-Soteric even takes some risk to hit a few flying moves off the ropes, firing up the crowd until he hits the Double Arm DDT to drop his opponent head first onto the mat and leave him there for the ten count.

Winner: E-Soteric

By this point, the crowd is already buzzing so when the lights go out and State of Destruction's theme song plays, the audience explodes in cheers before the GSW Tag Team champions even come out. Perfectly timing their appearance with the song's first verse kicking off, Boneyard and BB Colossus make their way to the ring looking dominant and ready to destroy.

GSW Tag Team titles match

State of Destruction vs Brown Pride

Barb Wire Weapons match</div>

Well aware of their odds in a straightforward match, Brown Pride immediately make a run for the weapons as soon as the bell rings. Boneyard is all to happy to respond in kind, passing a barb wire 2x4 to his partner before grabbing a barb wire himself. The ensuing 'swordfight' quickly turns into all-out mayhem and once again making the best of their massive size and power advantage, State of Destruction quickly take control of the match to dominate their opponents and throw them around like rag dolls.

<div style="text-align:center;">http://i195.photobucket.com/albums/z115/Scavenger68/TEW/GSW/Mexicos%20Finest.jpg</div>

As soon as the tide turns against Brown Pride, Mexico's Finest comes running to the ring to help his allies. Grabbing a barb wire weapon of his own on the way, Finest sweeps Boneyard's legs to drop him, before dragging him away from the ring to prevent the slow moving BB Colossus from saving him. Once Colossus finally gets there, Boneyard's taken plenty of damage and Brown Pride have recovered, charging in to triple team the big man. Once again using BB's immobility against him, the trio drag Boneyard back to the ring and after a triumphant Border Toss, both members of Brown Pride pile over Boneyard for the cover.

Winners and NEW GSW Tag Team champions: Brown Pride

GSW West Coast title match

Omar (with Kali Fornia) vs Hard-1

Death's Door match</div>

Led to the ring by Kali Fornia, who's all to happy to fondle both the gold around his waist and sometimes his groin underneath, Omar gets between the ropes for his first title defense. Hard-1 may have been having a rough time recently, but the toughened veteran is always dangerous and best not underestimated, as he's still a main event tier competitor wrestling for a midcard title. This is evident in the way the match begins, with Hard-1 keeping Omar grounded thanks to some hard hitting strikes, often leading to some kind of headbutt attack. Eventually, Omar finds a way to answer the onslaught, using monkey flips and spinning kicks to reverse Hard-1's attacks; once he does that, the match takes a turn for the better, as the reversals have a wonderful flow, leading to more elaborate versions such as a Hard-1 headbutt turned into a Tornado DDT. The match goes on for twice as long as any other has so far, going past the ten minute mark but never feeling like it drags and despite Hard-1's best attempts, he finally falls victim to Omar's spectacular High Velocity Headbutt.

Winner and still GSW West Coast champion: Omar

Mexico's Finest vs Deaf Touch

West Coast Deathmatch</div>

The damage inflicted during his brawl with Boneyard earlier seems to be taking its toll on Mexico's Finest. Between that and keeping eyes on the back of his head for any retaliation, Finest isn't at his best when it comes to wrestling this match. This would be fine if he was in the ring with anyone else, but Deaf Touch is one of GSW's finest in-ring talents and any openings Finest gives him, he takes them to gain control of the match and do as much damage as he can before the big Mexican is able to power back and retaliate. It's still a good match and not just because Deaf Touch is able to carry Finest, quite the contrary as the two men seem to be filling each other's blanks, their in-ring chemistry making for an intense and captivating brawl.

<div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="LBt9mdU.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/LBt9mdU.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="K14fImu.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/K14fImu.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></div>

Retaliation does of course go down, some ten minutes into the match when State of Destruction show up to prevent Finest from pinning Deaf Touch. The big ex-con immediately turns his attention to the former tag champions in a hope to seize the initiative, but there's only so much he can do in a 2-on-1 situation against two pissed off monsters and he soon gets hit with the Colossus Avalanche on a corner, then a chokeslam from Boneyard, leaving him down for Deaf Touch to pin.

Winner: Deaf Touch

GSW American title match

Cali Slick vs Busta Capp vs Fro Sure

Barb Wire Weapons match</div>

Forsaking the use of weapons at first in order to do some actual wrestling, the three competitors show why they're three of the best GSW has to offer as they fly into an offensive frenzy, wrestling at an insanely quick pace that never lets fans (or themselves) catch a breath. As soon as one manages to eliminate another with a big move, the third participant comes swinging. Sometimes the swinging is literal, as eventually the weapons wrapped in barb wire come into play, mainly courtesy of CJ Weston and Kandii handing them out to their clients. Fro Sure has to take care of himself all alone and although his boxing-style brawl strikes get the work done to a point, he is never able to execute his Sure Thing piledriver finishing move for a pin. Busta Capp goes for the Mafia Kick more than once, but both Fro and Slick managed to dodge it. Likewise, Capp escapes the Slick-Back chokeslam and although Fro gets hit with it, Slick can't capitalize as Capp is able to break up the pin with a punt kick to Slick's head, which he then tops with a Mafia Kick that finally connects.

<div style="text-align:center;">http://i195.photobucket.com/albums/z115/Scavenger68/TEW/GSW/Raheem%20Stash.jpg</div>

Capp's moment of triumph is short lived though, as Raheem Stash shows up to pull the ref's leg and drag him out of the ring before the count can reach three. Weston is ecstatic and Kandii can't do much as Stash simply shoves her aside, but Busta Capp hits a running baseball slide under the bottom rope that drives Stash back first into the barrier behind him, eliminating him from the mix. Still, the interruption is enough for Slick to recover and toss Fro Sure out of the ring, where Weston holds him down while Slick catches a returning Capp with the Slick-Back chokeslam for the pin.

Winner and STILL GSW American champion: Cali Slick

"Hell yeah, boys! Now that is what I'm talking about! Massive props to those involved in the main event, you guys really did steal the show like I told you to go out there and do, but the rest of the matches were real good too. You know what that means? It means we finally landed a hit on IPW! Our show was the better one this month and if you keep it up like that, we'll keep beating them again and again. I'm also real happy to have gone three shows without incident so far, so if you could keep that up as well, that'll make everyone's lives easier."

"I wanna give some special props to Madman Boone for carrying Magwitch through that opener, even if he was too battered to work the real stipulation that we'd originally announced. Blame's on me, should have checked with you first, man, but at least we tweaked the promo around to prevent you from looking weak. As for Magwitch, that stuff was hard to watch, kid. This clown thing has mileage in it, fans love it and you've pulled it off nicely so try not to kill yourself before we've made the most of it. Hopefully being in the ring with a hardcore legend tonight's taught you a thing or two."

"Last thing I wanna bring up is the tag match. If we're being honest, Boneyard's a little old to develop any actual wrestling skills and BB's stamina's shorter than the longest time Aces High's ever been sober, but hell, people don't show up here to watch technical spectacles, they come to see bodies drop and you two drop them like flies. I know losing tonight stings and yeah, it may have taken away some of your aura, but it's a temporary thing. You're still our main monster team and you'll keep dropping bodies left and right till you're all built up for a title match. Now I wanna see some effort till that comes to pass. Don't get lazy knowing it's coming your way, because I haven't penciled in the outcome yet. So consider this a heads up: show me you deserve to hold those titles again and I'll make sure it happens."

The show opens with Kali Fornia in the ring, doing a sexy provocative dance. The dance slowly turns into a strip tease once she begins to slowly remove layers of her clothing, but it never gets to full nude as the song is over before Kali Fornia can go all the way. Smiling as she's left the audience high and dry, she struts her way backstage and the show is off.

Hard-1 vs Drop Kix

Death's Door match</div>

Drop Kix starts all fired up with some basic strikes, only for Hard-1 to shake them off and knock him down with a headbutt, shouting at him to come on and give him something, an attitude the crowd seems to love. Drop Kix resumes his offense, this time with some more high velocity moves like flying forearms and, obviously, dropkicks, but it does little damage to the resilient veteran, who finally fires back with a flurry of blows to beat down the rookie, before whipping him to the ropes and catching him on the rebound with a Mafia Kick that incapacitates him for the ten count.

Winner: Hard-1

Rating: E+ 33

Not satisfied with his dominance and quick, easy win, Hard-1 cuts the celebrations short in order to do some more damage to the fallen rookie, mounting him for a bit of ground and pound before finally letting go and returning backstage.

Dead Men Walking vs Omar & Cheech Kong

Death's Door match</div>

Omar and Gravedigga start the match, trading blows like machinegun fire back and forth, before Omar tags Kong in. The two of them try to pick up the pace and work together as a high flying team, but that's quickly shut down by Dead Men Walking thanks to their experience working together. Still, the pace is kept fast and crazy, dangerous spots only get crazier and more dangerous, especially once Mobstar comes into the match. The former Tag Team champions focus on the weaker Cheech Kong and cut the ring in half as they get to work on him. Reading the situation, Omar comes in flying coast to coast to break it up and even though he connects with both feet square into Gravedigga's jaw, knocking both men out of the ring, Mobstar is still in and the legal man, hitting a Flattener DDT onto Cheech for the ten count as he fights off Omar at ringside to prevent him from reviving his teammate.

Winners: Dead Men Walking

The ring announcer lets fans know the following is a tag team match, to be contested under Death's Door rules. First ones introduced and led to the ring by CJ Weston, the team of Raheem Stash and the GSW American champion, Cali Slick.

<div style="text-align:center;">http://i195.photobucket.com/albums/z115/Scavenger68/TEW/GSW/Busta%20Capp.jpg<img alt="3pgtwAI.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/3pgtwAI.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></div>

Skipping the usual antics of his entrance, Busta Capp heads straight to the ring and gets between the ropes, while Kandii grabs a mic and hands it to him, before joining him inside the ring.

"You call yo'self the top dawg in GSW, Slick, but everyone knows you're a fraud. Only reason you got that title from me is 'cause yo' lil' friend Aces High got himself involved in our match. Only reason you still got that title is 'cause now that he's out, your pimp daddy Weston got you a new pitbull in Stash over there. I am the real GSW American champion! I am the face of this company, it's heart and soul, it's blood and bones! It's my blood I shed, my bones I break and I damn well deserve a proper shot to get my title back!"

CJ Weston sneers and when Stash makes a move to rough up Capp, Weston stops him. He then proceeds to take the mic from Capp, but before he can talk, Slick grabs it out of his hands.

"Now listen up, punk! You keep losing your matches against me again and again. You can come up with whatever excuse you like, fact of the matter is I keep beating you every time and that's while I got the gold still. I bet you been bustin' people's balls backstage for another shot, which is probably how you got this match. Tell you what, why don't you bring out whoever the hell your teammate is for tonight, then if you're still alive in two weeks, you can have yo'self a match with my man Raheem Stash over here."

Capp nods in satisfaction, happy to get his revenge on the man that cost him the match at GSW Anarchy and hopefully a shot at the title after beating him. Meanwhile, Stash is all to glad to rough up people, be it tonight or in two weeks from now.

Cali Slick & Raheem Stash (with CJ Weston) vs Devyn Retribution & Busta Capp (with Kandii)

Death's Door match</div>

The match is chaotic from the opening bell, with Capp trying to jump Slick while Stash grabs a steel chair to prevent him and beat him down, before a brave Devyn Retribution tries to make the save, instead simply getting nailed with the chair himself. Things only break down from there, with Stash swinging anything he can get his hands on like a madman, including a spot where he gorilla-presses Devyn Retribution above his head before using him as a projectile he tosses towards Capp. The mayhem makes Stash look like an absolute monster, but Slick has little space and safety to hit most of his signature moves, so as soon as Weston provides him with an opening by dragging Capp out of the ring for Stash to beat into a pulp, Slick makes the best of it and flattens Retribution with a Slick-Back chokeslam for the ten count and victory.

Winners: Cali Slick & Raheem Stash

Fro Sure vs Mexico's Finest

Barb Wire Weapons match</div>

Fro's fireplug boxing has him on the offensive as the match begins, but Mexico's Finest isn't really feeling any pain from the blows and retaliates with some clubbing strikes of his own. Fro makes a run for the outside and grabs a weapon to even the odds, only for the Mexican to do the same. The exchange sees Fro come out on top thanks to some smooth dodging skills and a few strategic blows targeted at his opponent's shins and calves. Now in control, Fro Sure is able to hit some proper wrestling moves, utilizing the weapons for bloody variations of his signature spots. Mexico's Finest is soon bleeding all over, but somehow seems to enjoy the violence and gore. The adrenaline rush from it all gives him a second wind and he makes a comeback to pummel Fro, only to fall victim to a reversal and a quick roll up that referee Moore Vincent counts extremely fast, awarding the win to Fro. Fans boo but the decision is final and the golden boy shakes hands with the ref all too happy for the cooperation, stealing a win and making a run for the locker room before Mexico's Finest can unleash his rage upon him.

Winner: Fro Sure

Newcomer Katoh Freak is an unknown factor they can't quite prepare for and if one looks past his appearance and crazy antics, the fact that he's agreed to wrestle a Light Tube match speaks volumes of the lengths he's willing to go. His partner will be none other than "the hardcore clown" Magwitch, a big man who thrives in such ultraviolent environments. As if this wasn't enough, the champions need to also watch their backs from retaliation by former champions State of Destruction or even potential challengers Dead Men Walking. Even with Mexico's Finest having their back, this may not prove to be enough for them to retain the gold and let's not even begin to discuss what a turn things would take if Magwitch and Katoh Freak were to become the new GSW Tag Team champions... <div style="text-align:center;">http://i195.photobucket.com/albums/z115/Scavenger68/TEW/GSW/Deaf%20Touch.jpg<img alt="MsqUWsB.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/MsqUWsB.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="7a12cc199f331276779e941662cce141768f26b5_128.jpg" data-src="https://pm1.narvii.com/6030/7a12cc199f331276779e941662cce141768f26b5_128.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="GpdZr8q.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/GpdZr8q.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="W22nA1O.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/W22nA1O.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /> Deaf Touch & E-Soteric vs Omar & JOJI Death's Door match</div> Another fresh face on the roster, high flying newcomer JOJI will team up with the GSW West Coast champion Omar. Their opponents, Deaf Touch and E-Soteric, have proven themselves to be capable fighters and seem to be on a pretty good roll. To further complicate matters, the inclusion of JOJI may throw off not just his opponents, but his teammate as well and should Omar be the one to get pinned, he can reasonably expect whoever pins him to challenge for the GSW West Coast title next. Whoever wins, this will definitely be an action packed match with solid in-ring action. <div style="text-align:center;">http://i195.photobucket.com/albums/z115/Scavenger68/TEW/GSW/Busta%20Capp.jpg<img alt="7a12cc199f331276779e941662cce141768f26b5_128.jpg" data-src="https://pm1.narvii.com/6030/7a12cc199f331276779e941662cce141768f26b5_128.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" />http://i195.photobucket.com/albums/z115/Scavenger68/TEW/GSW/Top%20Dolla.jpg Busta Capp vs Top Dolla Death's Door match</div> Despite Cali Slick's offer to Busta Capp, the former GSW American champion was booked to wrestle Top Dolla and he's bound to not be happy about it.

No idea if Katoh Freak is even a good fit for GSW, so we will see how he does here

Deaf Touch & E-Soteric vs Omar & JOJI (Death's Door match)

I could see Deaf Touch pinning Omar here to set up Omar/Deaf Touch, but I feel like E-Soteric is such a fall guy that his only purpose is to lose and make JOJI look good, maybe to set up JOJI/Omar?

Busta Capp vs Top Dolla (Death's Door match)

Top Dolla barely draws more than a cent

Madman Boone vs Hard-1 (Last Blood match)

Boone gets another win to build up to his inclusion at the top. I see him being one of Bust Capp's allies in the fight against Cali Slick and Raheem Stash

Brother Grimm's biggest hit blasts on the speakers of the Warehouse, setting the crowd alight as the show kicks off. After the first verse, Grimm himself comes out with a mic in hand, rapping live to the second verse. Boneyard and BB Colossus also come out to flank the owner of GSW, then Fro Sure walks out just in time to sing the chorus together with Grimm. The song fades out and the four men take a moment to let the cheers die down before Brother Grimm speaks up.

"First of all, let me welcome all of you to my club, the home of the sickest beats and roughest beatdowns in all o' California. We got a very special show lined up for tonight, but first I wanted to come out here and say a few things. Now you all know Boneyard here's my bodyguard, so through him I've come to know and appreciate the other half of his team, BB Colossus right here. Give it up for State of Destruction, yo!"

Fans cheer the monstrous duo, with Fro Sure chipping in as he claps before Grimm continues.

"I drop the beats, they drop the beatdowns... hell, my homie Fro Sure drops both o' them! So I've decided to bring us all into a crew, join forces to dominate not just GSW, but take out them IPW suckaz and rule the wrestling game like we rule the rap game!"

Fro Sure nods in agreement, before stepping up to say a few words of his own.

"Give it up for my crew yo, Grimm Inc... Yeah and once I beat Slick's ass tonight to become the new GSW American champion, we comin' after Brown Pride for them tag titles. They think Mexico's Finest got their backs? Well hell, now Fro and Grimm got the State's back too. We comin' to getcha!"

Brown Pride vs Magwitch & Katoh Freak

Light Tube match</div>

Katoh Freak is spot-on with his trademark weirdo antics, but that's actually the entire segment's high point as everything goes completely south after that. The GSW faithful in attendance treat Katoh with utter contempt and not even the mayhem of shattering light tubes and spilled blood is enough to silence them. While the chaos may help hide up the weaknesses of 'team freak' as fans start to call them, there's no getting away from the fact that Magwitch and Katoh Freak are all over the place, showing absolute zero chemistry as a team. To make matters worse, MexiCain botches a swing with a bunch of light tubes, catching Magwitch straight in the arm and causing him to bleed profusely, before he and LatiNoFear hit the Border Toss on Freak to finally end the bout and make their first title defense, without any outside interference nonetheless.

Deaf Touch & E-Soteric vs Omar & JOJI

Death's Door match</div>

Compared to his fellow newcomer earlier, JOJI gets a much better reaction, whether because of the Jamaican vibe of his dreadlocks or his spectacular high flying moves. After pulling off a few jaw-droppers at the start of the match to showcase his style, JOJI is met with extreme aggression by E-Soteric, bad enough to keep him landed and provide a rough welcome to GSW, essentially making JOJI the underdog high flyer in a roster of violent psychopaths. As he gets to work on his opponent, E-Soteric's blows seem to get somewhat sloppy and Deaf Touch soon snaps his partner out of the adrenaline rush to get the tag. The Deaf Touch-JOJI matchup allows for a breather of clean wrestling, before Omar tags himself in to square off with Deaf Touch. The result is terrible, as Omar blows most of his spots, potentially hurting himself even more than Deaf Touch is able to, which in turn leads JOJI to take a brave decision and tag himself back in. Now effectively fighting a 2 on 1 match, Deaf Touch and E-Soteric smartly isolate JOJI on their corner, using quick tags to inflict maximum damage before E-Soteric sets him up to take the Crooked Moonsault from Deaf Touch, leaving him down for the count as the duo fend off Omar.

Busta Capp (with Kandii) vs Top Dolla

Death's Door match</div>

This match is pretty short and extremely crazy, with Busta Capp venting his frustrations over losing his chance to reclaim the GSW American title and Top Dolla hitting the most insane daredevil stunts he can think of and blowing the vast majority of them. Extremely one-sided, the match ends with Top Dolla doing one of his signature death defying dives off a balcony overseeing the ring, only for his head to meet Capp's foot, catching the working end of a Mafia Kick before he can even land. The spot gets a huge reaction from the crowd and understandably so, is bad enough to put Dolla down for the ten count.

Winner: Busta Capp

As soon as Capp is declared the winner, he motions for Kandii to grab a mic for him.

"What the hell was this sh*t? I was supposed to have a match against Raheem Stash tonight, not this wigger kid over his head and outta his league. Now I know Fro Sure's booked to wrestle Slick one on one tonight, so somethin' tells me it's Grimm favoring his golden boy and keepin' me as far from the spotlight as he can. I ain't gonna stand for this. You better get me Stash in this ring next time, then once I beat his ass, put me back on top to fight for the gold, whether it's Slick, Fro or anyone else holdin' it by that time!"

Madman Boone vs Hard-1

Last Blood match</div>

Boone comes to the ring pushing a utility handcart in front of him, one he's loaded up with whatever items he could scavenge to bring along as weapons. Hard-1 responds in kind, swinging the chain he brings to the ring as part of his entrance and the match gets underway in spectacular fashion, as Boone lets the swinging chain wrap around his arm, before pulling in Hard-1 for a headbutt, busting his own forehead in the process. Boone hits a few moves on Hard-1 to follow up, forcing him to retreat outside the ring. Giving chase turns out to be a bad idea though, as Hard-1 counters the plancha by redirecting Boone's flying body to crash on the handcart, spilling out its contents as well as more of the Madman's blood. Hard-1 cherry picks some of the spilled items, testing them on Boone's back, but the excitement leaves him exposed to another headbutt from Boone, this time from a kneeling position and directed at his mid section, before Boone catches him for a DDT onto the cart. Fans come alive and taking things a step further, Boone switches the plan, instead piledriving Hard-1 head first onto the cart. The move leaves both men nearly unconscious, but Boone is able to pull himself back up as the referee reaches a count of eight, leaving Hard-1 down until ten to win the match.

Winner: Madman Boone

GSW American title match

Cali Slick (with CJ Weston) vs Fro Sure

Brass Knuckles match</div>

The two men make the most of the match stipulation, trading punches back and forth with brass knuckles in full effect. While there is little actual wrestling, the action is rough and gritty, realistic and smashmouth, much like an actual boxing match, drawing fans in for the experience. Slick's blows pack plenty of force behind them thanks to his ripped physique, while Fro Sure's scrawny figure lets him duck and weave much easier, making up for his lack of power by hitting Slick when he's most exposed. The defending champion looks to be in a tight spot with his back against the wall, especially after Weston climbs on the apron to distract the ref and catches a brass knuckled haymaker from Fro that knocks him out and off the apron. Even when Raheem Stash shows up for the assist, he somehow looks much smaller, mainly because...

<div style="text-align:center;">http://i195.photobucket.com/albums/z115/Scavenger68/TEW/GSW/Busta%20Capp.jpg</div>

...underneath is actually Busta Capp, wearing a Stash-like outfit. One he throws the hood back to reveal himself, Capp flips off Slick and hits him with a stunner, allowing Fro to pick him up for the Sure Thing piledriver that's enough to knock the champ out.

Fro Sure as GSW American champion is good business.

Fro Sure as part of Grimm's entourage is... interesting. I always thought he could hang with everyone without back up.

Fro started the game with a dreadful rating on his default Fan Favorite gimmick, so when looking up potential new ones, I decided to go with Chosen One and make him the management's golden boy. The rest kinda came up along the way, so now the main event scene is mainly Corporate Fro, Badass Slick, Anti-authority vigilante Capp and Hardcore legend Boone. I'm interested to see where things go from there, but that'll have to wait till early September when I'm back from holidays.

Mexico's Finest vs Katoh Freak

Death's Door match

The show's opening match is a hot mess all over, screaming bloody murder as it's overbooked with weapons spots and gallons of the red juice as the fans scream for Freak to literally die. Mexico's Finest is there to do just that and aided by Katoh Freak's painful inconsistency, which includes a botched table spot, he dominates the match to quickly knock out the Japanese weirdo in just under eight minutes.

Winner: Mexico's Finest

Kali Fornia comes out on top of the entrance ramp, using one of the support beams for her sexy "pole dance" while the ring is being cleared up from the debris of the opener.

E-Soteric vs Top Dolla

Death's Door match

Not yet fully recovered from catching Busta Capp's Mafia Kick straight to the jaw during his suicide balcony dive at Beneath the City, Top Dolla still hits his high risk offense but seems to be taking as much damage as he's dishing out. Meanwhile, E-Soteric smartly focuses his offense on his opponent's weak spot, mixing his usual brawling style with jawbreakers and facebusters to maximize the damage inflicted. Feeling the tide against him and with nothing to lose, Top Dolla eventually goes for another all-or-nothing balcony dive, only for E-Soteric to dodge before picking him up for an extra Double Arm DDT that ensures he stays down for the ten count.

Winner: E-Soteric

CJ Weston comes out next, taking to the ring all alone with nothing but a mic in hand.

"I gotta give it to you, Capp. You took matters into your own hands and by God, you made a difference when you cost my client, Cali Slick, the GSW American title. Now I want you to know, it wasn't me that changed your scheduled opponent from Stash into Top Dolla. I had nothing to do with it, man. Same way I bet you weren't the one to take out Stash and show up in his place. I mean, you're good, but good enough to take Stash out? Nah... thing is, my point here... we're both being played, man. We're on the same side."

http://i195.photobucket.com/albums/z115/Scavenger68/TEW/GSW/Busta%20Capp.jpg

Weston spends a moment to take in the mixed reaction his words cause to the audience, but he never notices Busta Capp running to the ring to hit him from behind with a clubbing elbow to the base of the head. Fans pop and Kandii shows up short after, picking up Weston's mic and handing it to Capp.

"F*** you, Weston! You got the balls to tell me we on the same side? After your Long Beach Crew cost me the title? After your homie Stash cost me my rematch? Hell no, white boy. I was just setting things straight, Slick losing the title like that only serves you two right. I don't care who switched my opponent at Beneath the City, but know this: I did beat up Stash back then and I will do so again in this ring, just like I'm gonna do with Slick after him, before I'm free to reclaim my GSW American title without any more of your distractions."

Raheem Stash & JOJI vs Cheech Kong & Busta Capp (with Kandii)

Death's Door match

CJ Weston can't be at ringside after Capp's attack and the effect of his absence on Stash becomes apparent quick: The massive Jamaican has no problem manhandling the risktaker Kong at the start of the match, but once Busta Capp gets the tag, Stash is unable to hold his own without Weston's guidance, despite his size advantage. Again, JOJI "sacrifices" himself for the team, blind-tagging himself in to give Stash a break. Unaware of the tag, Capp keeps beating on Stash, exposing himself to a missile dropkick from JOJI as he enters the ring. The Asian takes Capp by storm with his spectacular offense, which in turn hypes up Cheech Kong. Capp is fine with a breather so he tags Kong in, leading to a fast paced exchange of flippy moves before JOJI nails the Joji Miracle Explosion on his opponent. Capp gets back in the ring to fend off JOJI and revive his teammate before the ten count, but Stash mauls him away just long enough for the ref to finish the count.

Winners: Raheem Stash and JOJI

Cheerfully oblivious as always in her schoolgirl outfit, Little Miss Sunshine comes out to the ring. Before she can say a thing,

hits the speakers and the new GSW American champion dances his way to the ring, busting a move or two around her as well. Fro's good mood seems to be infectious and after a few moves of her own, Little Miss Sunshine returns to work.

"GSW fans want to know, Mr. Sure, who is going to be your first challenger for that title?"

Fro Sure smiles confidently, resetting the gold on his shoulder before responding.

"I'll take on all comers, hun, but let's face the facts here. I beat Slick for the title, so there's no sense in fighting him again for it. Busta Capp, he's been whining ever since he lost the gold, but every chance he was given, he blew it and there's others in line who haven't yet taken a single shot, y'know what I mean? Now I got two people on my sights I'd love to wrestle, both been undefeated since the start of the year and I'd love to be the one that puts an end to their streak. Number one is a GSW original, Deaf Touch. Kid can go in the ring and if I can beat him, I can prove I'm the best wrestler on the roster. Number two is Madman Boone, a living legend of hardcore gracing our company with his presence. This is the kind o' man I wanna defeat, add that notch on my belt and elevate the title to new heights."

Dead Men Walking vs Drop Kix & Devyn Retribution

Death's Door match

Obviously, Drop Kix and Retribution are in for a massacre and the match plays out exactly like that, a complete car crash where Dead Men Walking go all out with weapons spots and Mobstar's fired up brawling, while their opponents throw caution to the wind and go high risk in hopes of an upset victory. It's chaotic and exciting enough for the ten or so minutes it lasts all the way up to the big finish of Kix and Retribution diving off the top turnbuckles; Kix dives outside onto Gravedigga, who tries to catch him mid-air and reverse into a piledriver, but the execution is actually somewhat sloppy, while Retribution dives inside the ring onto Mobstar, who plays it safe and catches him for the Flattener DDT that lives up to its name, knocking the man out for the ten count.

"I came out here to get thing one thing straight, so let's get to it 'fore people out here and people back there get too wasted to understand. I ain't afraid to defend my title tonight in a cage made o' barb wire. Hell, I was the one who requested it in the first place! Yeah, that's right, 'cause what Fro Sure wants, Fro Sure gets. Deaf Touch in a match? Got 'im. Barb wire cage? Got it. Now I bet all o' yo wonder why. Why would you do this to yo'self, Fro?"

Fro Sure counts a finger with each name he mentions next.

"Busta Capp... Cali Slick... Raheem Stash... CJ Weston... They been messing with each other's matches for a while now, so of course they'd do it again tonight 'cause they jealous. Then there's everyone else out for a title shot, might be gettin' ideas. This ain't how we do things in the 'dub.

Omar vs E-Soteric

Death's Door match

First "proper" wrestling match of the night and while it's not as overbooked as the opener, it's still somewhat hard to watch as both men are obviously off their game and no one is able to carry the other through. Offense is evenly split, though Omar seems to be in a slightly better headspace until...

...Cindy runs down to the ring, grabbing a bottle from a table on her way, which she proceeds to smash on Omar's head, allowing E-Soteric to hit the Double Arm DDT on the glass shards, laying out the champion for the ten count. The on-screen valet (and real life girlfriend) of IPW's star Hustle Muvva is in the house and not at all shy to make out with the new GSW West Coast champion (and also IPW alumni) to a raucous reaction from the fans.

Barb Wire Weapons match

Another chaotic brawl full of weapons galore, manager interference from both sides and generous doses of bleeding, this all actually levels the playing field for Stash, who is at home swinging at the "better wrestler" that is Capp. The veteran soon realizes he can't hope to keep this up much longer and when Kandii selflessly puts herself in the way to prevent Stash from picking up Capp in order to powerslam through a sheet of glass set up nearby, Capp makes the best of it, hitting Stash with the Mafia Kick just as Kandii perfectly sidesteps. The big man stumbles back, crashes through the glass and seconds later, Busta Capp is officially declared the winner.

Madman Boone vs Mexico's Finest

Last Blood match

Madman Boone shows up wearing a t-shirt that reads "Show me Prison Pain" and isn't shy about trading verbal jabs with (ex felon) members of the audience who seem to take offense. This in turn has the fans treat Mexico's Finest as the hero, but Boone's crazy antics don't end there. As soon as the bell rings, Boone produces a razor blade and cuts himself on the forehead, an insider blading joke for the smarkier fans but also an open challenge to his opponent: I'm already bleeding, do your worst to drain me down to my last blood. Finest isn't shy about the chance he was handed and proceeds to hit Boone's forehead with clubbing elbow shots to widen the gash, to which Boone responds with laughter and challenges. Fired up by the blood and adrenaline, Boone finally fights back and the match is properly on, with both men slugging it out using their fists, forearms, elbows and any foreign object lying around. It's only when they brawl their way into the crowd that things really get interesting, because what initially looked like a fan accidentally spilling his drink on them...

http://i195.photobucket.com/albums/z115/Scavenger68/TEW/GSW/Magwitch.jpg

...is actually the hardcore clown, Magwitch! Every bit as big and strong as the two competitors but much fresher than them, Magwitch proceeds to beat them up both just for the sake of it, before he goes to pull up Mexico's Finest and notices the huge scar on his own arm, a memory courtesy of Brown Pride and the reason he was out with an injury, even though he's back earlier than originally expected. Laughing hysterically, Magwitch grabs a bottle of cognac and pours it all on Finest, before stealing a lighter from a member of the audience. Fans go wild at the prospect of seeing Mexico's Finest set on fire, but Boone denies them the pleasure, tackling Magwitch to cause him to drop the lighter. More of an angle than a match by this point, Magwitch and Finest are lying on the floor and referee Vincent Moore makes the count, declaring Boone the official winner of the bout.

Winner: Madman Boone

Rushing through the carnage in her schoolgirl outfit, Little Miss Sunshine looks even more out of place than usual, if that's ever possible.

"Mr. Boone, sir? Uhm, congratulations. Care to make a comment on Fro Sure's challenge at last month's GSW Showtime! event?"

Covered in blood, Madman Boone looks like a serial killer next to the diminutive schoolgirl and cocking his head sideways only makes it creepier before he responds, shouting on the mic in short bursts.

"I CAME HERE FOR ONE REASON! PAIN! TO GIVE, BUT MOST IMPORTANTLY, TO TAKE IT! SO FAR, NO MAN HAS SATED MY HUNGER! Fro Sure...."

Boone's tone drops down to a psychopathic whisper

"I've been in this business for 21 years...are you.... sure... you can give me anything more than what I've already been through? Maybe you, Deaf Touch? Cali Slick? Busta Capp? ANYONE?"

GSW American title match

Fro Sure vs Deaf Touch

Barb Wire Cage match

It's weird seeing the only pairing of solid in-ring workers on the card fighting in a match with such a hardcore stipulation, but they roll with it and go all out to make the best of it, working the match at a frantic pace and packing as many shocker spots as they can in the thirteen or so minutes the main event lasts. Unfortunately, their styles don't mesh well and things feel a little awkward, to the point where they're unable to outperform hardcore specialists Boone and Mexico's Finest before them. Moore Vincent adds to the mess of it all, fast counting Fro's pin in a controversial decision hinting at Grimm Inc and the promotion's owner himself having had a say in who's gonna win this.

Winner and STILL GSW American champion: Fro Sure

My client Cali Slick has something important he wants to say…” Weston hands the mic to Slick, who takes a moment before speaking. “Busta Capp… I know you want a piece of me, boy.

After the initial rush and a two count, Kix looks winded, a sign he went too hard, too fast. Omar gets up on his feet for some payback and with both men trying to one-up each other, the bout quickly escalates to a spotfest until Drop Kix goes for broke, climbing the top turnbuckle for a missile dropkick. Omar shoves him off balance just before the jump, sending the young rookie to land awkwardly on the ring steps. From there it's just a matter of time, as Omar roughs up the youngster on the outside before dragging him back inside the ring for the High Velocity Headbutt that knocks him out for the ten count.

Fans boo the duo they regard as IPW invaders or loyalists, until Cindy gestures at them to shut up and suck it. While this fires up the crowd, sending them into all sorts of shouts and chants against her, it may just be a bad move as the audience ends up focusing more on her than the GSW West Coast champion and his words. "Shut yo mouths, you broke ass n***az! None of yo saw this coming and neither did Omar. Hell, I bet even Hustle Muvva never saw it coming.

Dead Men Walking make the bet of the stipulation, Gravedigga especially, to swing wild and wide, causing a storm of blood and sweat. In the chaos and Mayhem there's little sense, psychology or actual wrestling, but that's just the way Magwitch and Top Dolla like it. <div style="text-align:center;">http://i195.photobucket.com/albums/z115/Scavenger68/TEW/GSW/Mexicos%20Finest.jpg</div> Mexico's Finest also makes his presence felt during the match, when he shows up to attack the psycho clown, payback for the interference of Magwitch two weeks ago when Finest went to war with Madman Boone. The scale tipped against his team, Top Dolla goes all-or-nothing with an insane dive off the balcony but comes up empty, allowing Gravedigga to hit him with The Execution on top of his bad fall and win the match.

Meanwhile, Slick uses his slight power advantage to control Capp once they've locked up, targeting his ribs with boxing or martial arts inspired strikes. It's Capp who gets to make use of the stipulation once he fights back though, backdroping his opponent onto the razor wire of the cage. This gives him enough time to leave the ring and retrieve a baseball bat wrapped in barb wire from under the apron, with which he proceeds to brutalize Slick while he's down. Bloodied but not beaten, Slick fights through the pain and dizzyness to get back in the match, mauling Capp to a corner of the cage, where he holds and grinds him against the wire to inflict maximum damage. Kandii springs into action and gets in Slick's face with the trash talk through the cage, but it turns out to be a trap as when he responds, he's just in range for her to poke his eyes. Blinded, Slick walks straight into a desperate Mafia Kick from Capp for the 1-2-3, wrapping the brutal main event at 16:08.

Busta Capp vs Madman Boone (Brass Knuckles match)

Boone I think is way better than the rest of your roster in this kind of environment, so I think you hold off on giving him the easy shot to the top and give him some adversity to overcome.

GSW Tag Team titles match: Brown Pride vs Dead Men Walking (Barb Wire Weapons match)

Brown Pride continues to hang on to the straps for a while.

Mexico's Finest vs Magwitch (Flaming Tables match)

Don't think I'm picking Magwitch for a match any time soon

Cheech Kong & Omar vs Devyn Retribution & JOJI (Death's Door match)

JOJI is still learning the (barbed wire) ropes, and Retribution hasn't done much but job so far.

State of Destruction vs Drop Kix & Top Dolla

Not picking against State of Destruction any time soon

As if answering Travis Century’s words, music hits and the owner of GSW himself, Brother Grimm comes out with a smile on his face, a mic on one hand and Kali Fornia wrapped around the other. The pornstar look-alike is having a busy night, her other arm wrapped around the GSW American champion, Fro Sure. Finally, the menacing BB Colossus and Boneyard come out to flank the group.

CC: “It looks like Boneyard’s been spending time at the gym, look at those bulging muscles all over! My guess is losing those GSW Tag Team titles has lit a fire inside him that drives him to improve until he and his State of Destruction partner have reclaimed the gold!”

TC: “Their frames may be very different, but they’re clearly the biggest, baddest tag team on the roster by far!”

Once the cheers and music die down, Brother Grimm gets on the mic.

“How y’all doin’ tonight? Yeah, havin’ a good time? As the owner of this club and the owner of GSW, I’m twice your host tonight so I figured I’d personally welcome you all to the party, GSW Block Party!”

Fans cheer and Grimm lets Fro carry on.

“Grimm Inc is in the house, baybay! I’m personally here to watch sh*t go down because tonight, in the main event, we get to find out who’s gonna be fightin’ me next month for this”

Fro sure taps the GSW American title around his skinny waist.

“Not that it matters much, ‘cause even after next month, I’m still gonna be your GSW American champion, but man I’d love to see Busta Capp and Madman Boone kill each other tonight just for a chance to face me and fail, just like Cali Slick failed. You see, what everyone here fails to realize is Grimm Inc runs this place. And I’d like to demonstrate it with a practical example right now, as my brothers State of Destruction here wreak havoc in that ring. Let’s get this party started up in this b*tch!”

State of Destruction vs Drop Kix & Top Dolla

Death’s Door match</div>

Everyone knows how this match is most likely to end so “Top Kix” as fans have dubbed them, immediately go for broke trying their biggest moves right out the bat. Unfortunately, most of them involve a certain degree of high flying and BB Colossus puts a hard break to his opponents’ momentum when he catches Drop Kix in the midst of a (poorly thought) crossbody attempt, reversing it to a powerslam that causes Kix to disappear under the big man’s 400+ pound body. The sequence though has provided Top Dolla with enough time to climb up the balcony for another of his signature suicide dives and this time he hits it quick, landing on top of Colossus before he has a chance to get back on his feet again. Understandably so, the dive takes an even bigger toll on the crushed Drop Kix and when the fresh Boneyard gets the tag, all he has to do is hit a double chokeslam on both his wrecked opponents. Referee Vinnie Moore starts the count and State of Destruction take the time to pose over their fallen opponents, looking strong as the count reaches ten.

Winners: State of Destruction

Cheech Kong & Omar vs Devyn Retribution & JOJI

Death's Door match</div>

Unlike most GSW matches, this one features only young wrestlers and all four of them are more likely to wow fans with their high flying than brawling, bleeding or weapons spots. This all makes for a very unusual match but one that’s impressive enough to quell any complaints from the hardcore loyalists. Making the best of the setup, the four men put up a refreshing change of a match with more ‘actual’ wrestling than usual, even if things feel a bit spotty from time to time, especially due to Omar and JOJI being way off their usual game. Still, those two manage to carry their partners throughout the match, with everyone getting a share of the spotlight to showcase their arsenal of moves in a pretty competitive match that keeps swinging back and forth. Once JOJI climbs the turnbuckle to hit his Miracle Explosion finisher on Omar though, it looks like it’s a wrap, but Omar barely rolls through, proving he’s been playing possum in order to set JOJI up for his own High Velocity Headbutt. Devyn Retribution makes a stunt-worthy save when he hits a spinning soccer-style enzuguiri kick that connects with Omar’s head on the way down and this leaves him and Cheech Kong to carry on the match. The two rookie GSW originals fight it out back and forth with a series of strikes, but it’s Devyn’s all-around game that saves the day for him as he’s able to limit Kong’s mobility and take away his high flying, before getting him on his shoulders for a Devyn Plex that puts him out for the count.

Winners: Devyn Retribution & JOJI

Before the winners are announced, Cindy leads E-Soteric outside and fan cheers immediately turn into boos. Cindy doesn’t look excited.

“Shut yo mouths, motherf*ckers! When the West Coast champion has a thing to say, you shut up and hear it!”

The boos turn into chants of “Slut!Slut!Slut!” and Cindy returns the favor via various hand gestures, but E-Soteric makes an attempt to turn focus back to what he has to say.

“What is this sh*t, Mexico? I thought this was GSW, homies. Hardcore entertainment, straight outta the hood, you feel me? Now as the West Coast champion, I feel it’s my duty to stamp out this flippy dippy sh*t, so here’s what we’re gonna do: we’re gonna have ourselves a little tournament and the winner gets to have his ass kicked by me in a title match. I call it the E-Soteric Invitational. So here’s how it works: Next month at GSW Showtime, we gonna have a triple threat match between JOJI, Cheech Kong and Devyn Retribution. Omar I already beat for the title so he can go f*ck himself. Anyway, whoever gets pinned in that triple threat is out of the race. The other two get to fight each other in June at the Gatecrasher show and whoever wins that match gets a shot at my title. Can you dig it?”

E-Soteric never waits for a response, instead drops the mic and holds the GSW West Coast title up high in the air.

Rating: D 41

CC: “Oh my God, E-Soteric just laid down a challenge and how great is the E-Soteric Invitational going to be, Travis?”

TC: “First of all, thou shalt not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain, Clifford. Second, it’s going to be a Golgotha for these three young men to climb and the champion will be waiting on top of it to crucify whoever makes it to the top!”

CC: “I don’t know about crucifixion, but there’s certainly going to be arson up next, it’s Mexico’s Finest versus Magwitch in a Flaming Tables match! Only way to win is to set a table on fire and drive your opponent through it and it’s next!”

Mexico's Finest vs Magwitch

Flaming Tables match</div>

An insane stipulation even by GSW standards, this one is essentially the green light for the two competitors to go all out batsh*t crazy, turning the match into an absolute car crash or more appropriately, a dumpster fire. Despite not really having the stamina to keep up with the big bad Mexican, Magwitch is all too happy to set things on fire and he proceeds to light up as many tables as he can first, instead of just setting one ablaze and trying to put his opponent through it. The visual effect of it all is impressive, but the smoke and heat makes it even harder for the huffing and puffing hardcore clown to breathe, allowing Mexico’s Finest to eventually dive through the ropes and tackle Magwitch with a spear off the apron and through a burning table at ringside. The bell is rung and Mexico’s Finest shouts something to Magwitch about messing with him and f*cking up his matches, presumably a reference to the clown’s return during the Mexican’s match against Boone, before refusing to have his hand raised and returning backstage.

Winner: Mexico’s Finest

Rating: E+ 33

CC: “It’s hard to breathe, ladies and gentlemen, you can’t feel it but the heat and smoke here are so bad they’ve set off a few fire alarms and now staff is rushing in with fire extinguishers to put out the flames”

TC: “Why in the Lord’s name is that maniac still laughing?”

CC: “Magwitch seems to be enjoying it all, he’s always been weird but ever since he returned, he’s had an odd fascination with fire. But what about Mexico’s Finest, he won the match and now his Brown Pride friends are set for action next, defending their GSW Tag Team titles against Dead Men Walking!”

GSW Tag Team titles match

Brown Pride vs Dead Men Walking

Barb Wire Weapons match</div>

Unlike their recent string of matches, this one is a surprisingly clean one for Dead Men Walking and they kick it off with some good wrestling against the defending champions. Mobstar especially has a chance to shine in this scenario, his rough street brawling style taking the fight to Brown Pride, who turn their attention to the barb wire weapons around in an attempt to turn the match around. A wide baseball bat swing catches Mobstar straight in the ear and the two latinos catch a breather while Gravedigga also goes for a weapon to defend his fallen teammate from getting overwhelmed. The ensuing exchange goes nowhere and with no apparent team in charge, the match seems to have hit a stalemate when…

<div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="K14fImu.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/K14fImu.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="LBt9mdU.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/LBt9mdU.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></div>

State of Destruction come out, intimidating referee Vinnie Moore into inaction, assuming he hasn’t already been bribed or instructed by Brother Grimm to look the other way. Brown Pride brace themselves and charge the interlopers with weapons in hand, but Boneyard uses his reach to grab LatiNoFear by the throat before he gets into working range, chokeslamming him to the ringside floor. Meanwhile, MexiCain does manage to hit the plodding BB Colossus, but the impact is absorbed by the big man’s layers upon layers of fat. Boneyard shoves MexiCain to the apron and a charging Colossus hits him with the Avalanche, sandwiching him between the ring apron and 400+ pounds of manflesh. Their work done, State of Destruction roll LatiNoFear back into the ring and Mobstar covers him for the pin as ref Vincent Moore counts to three.

Rating: D 43

CC: “Grimm Inc had a word to say about who they wanted to hold the GSW American championship and now it’s spread out to the tag teams, as State of Destruction got their chance at revenge against the team that beat them for the titles”

TC: “I’ve been getting up to speed with past events since our last show and if I remember correctly, that match too ended after outside interference”

CC: “That is true, it took the assist from Mexico’s Finest for Brown Pride to win the titles. Payback is…”

The screen above the wrestlers’ entrance comes alive, showing Cali Slick and Raheem Stash next to each other. CJ Weston is in the middle, looking at the camera as he starts to talk.

“This Grimm Inc thing is getting out of control! First they mess with my client Cali Slick and his GSW American title, now they mess with the tag team titles too? It’s a travesty, that’s what it is! Why not appoint whoever they like as champion next, huh? Why have matches for the titles at all, huh? HUH?”

Cali Slick cuts CJ Weston off, motioning for him to calm down.

“My executive consultant here’s gettin’ a lil’ hot, but he makes a valid point. This Grimm Inc crew is making a mockery of everything the titles, this company, hell, everything pro wrestling stands for. We don’t give our blood, sweat and tears in that ring just so Brother Grimm and his henchmen can come out and do as they please with no consequences. As of right now, I’m declaring war on Grimm Inc!”

The two men turn to the towering Jamaican next to them, but Stash merely shakes his head in disappointment before walking away. In the distance, he can be heard saying something about “not being paid enough for this”

Rating: D- 40

CC: “A ballsy move from Slick and Weston, but looks like their man Stash wasn’t convinced to join the resistance”

TC: “These kind of things take men who follow the cause out of their hearts, not out of greed. Slick is better off without a man like Stash”

CC: “The call has been made and we have yet to see who will answer it, but for now we have one last match to go and it’s our main event!”

Busta Capp (with Kandii) vs Madman Boone (with Little Miss Sunshine)

Brass Knuckles match</div>

Busta Capp comes out as usual with Kandii by his side, but Madman Boone responds in kind when he’s led to the ring by Little Miss Sunshine, who somehow has found a way to look even more oblivious and out of place than usual in her schoolgirl outfit next to the big scarred hardcore maniac. The two men shake hands in a rare show of respect, before putting on the brass knucks to get the match started. In the ensuing brawl, Capp struggles but somehow ends up getting the better part of the exchange thanks to a combination of grit on his side and failing stamina on the side of his opponent. Boone quickly realizes this is a match he can’t win if things go on like this, so he retreats to ringside in search of weaponry. Lured in like a predator closing in for the kill, Capp is too caught up in the moment to realize what Boone is going for and for his efforts get caught straight in the face with a chair that Boone throws his way. Kandii gets herself involved and in Little Miss Sunshine’s effort to keep her at bay, a fight erupts between them with plenty of hair pulling and exposed flesh that meets the roaring approval of the fans while the wrestlers catch a breath. First back on his feet, Busta Capp tries to break up the catfight but the distraction exposes him to a trash can attack from Boone. Whacking the can with anything he can get his hands on, Boone disorients his opponent long enough to drag him back into the ring and hit his groggy opponent with the Boone and Bust for the finish.

Winner: Madman Boone

The atmosphere is explosive before the bell even rings and given the setup of weapons wrapped in barb wire, things immediately implode into a free-for-all mayhem. The match is short, the match is brutal and it is exactly what the bloodthirsty GSW fans in attendance need to get going with six or so minutes of blood and guts before BB Colossus hits his avalanche finisher on the hardcore clown for the pin.

That's mostly the case for Omar at least, who seems content on using his athletic style for the bout whereas Top Dolla isn't shy about swinging anything he can get his hands on. This makes for a match where Omar gets some offense rolling with a couple of flashy moves laced together, only for Top Dolla to shut him down with a sneak attack or weapon shot. As the damage piles up and stamina runs out, Top Dolla finally gets Omar on the mat long enough to climb the balcony and try one of his trademark suicidal dives, but Omar was prepared and manages to roll aside, hitting the devastated Dolla with his own High Velocity Headbutt for the finish.

This sets the tone and pace for the rest of it, a true spotfest full of exciting moves and flashy offense. As per the rules laid out by E-Soteric, the one to get pinned here will be eliminated, with the other two fighting it out at GSW Gatecrasher for a chance at the West Coast title, so there's a significant lack of spots where the 'third man' breaks up a pin attempt. JOJI is by far the best performer in the match and while Devyn Retribution seems to be out of his waters, his more grounded and power-based game turns out to be unpredictable enough for him to hit Kong with a Devyn Driver onto a steel chair and pin him for the win.

The GSW veteran is happy to oblige, first whipping Boone with the chain before he wraps it around his fist and forearm for a few close range blows. Boone takes the hits and even seems to enjoy them, as the adrenaline builds up to send him into a fighting frenzy. The two lock up in a standing battle of strikes and, true to his nickname, Madman Boone seems hellbent on beating Hard-1 at his own game: the two trade headbutts on the borders of Concussionville and that starts the match off proper. Already spent from the warm-up though, Boone is struggling to keep up with Hard-1's brawling. The Texas-born veteran makes the best of that fact to lay the smackdown on Boone, even after the Madman retreats outside the ring for a breather. Little Miss Sunshine bravely puts her body between the two to protect Boone and that's all the distraction the big title contender needs to grab a drink from a front row fan and spill it on his opponent, effectively blinding him for a bit. Mustering whatever strength he's got left, Boone picks up Hard-1 for a piledriver onto the floor and after all the head shots in the match, the move is enough to knock Hard-1 out.

Kandii is not far behind and though she's good for keeping Little Miss Sunshine at bay, what actually gets the fans going is their ensuing catfight, with plenty of skin exposed of course. Once he's done beating up Boone, Busta Capp separates the two fighting women and motions for a mic. "Hardcore legend my a*s. Hardcore ain't about how much you bleed, white boy, it's about how much blood you can shed and keep goin'. Look at me, every time I get close to that title, every time someone has to f*ck me out of the picture, but I'm still around.

Raheem Stash vs Magwitch

Death's Door match</div>

Raheem Stash once again comes out wearing his "Guns for Hire" t-shirt with the two arrows pointing to his meaty biceps, a reminder he's available for hire again after walking out on Cali Slick and CJ Weston. Perhaps as a twisted mockery of that outfit, Magwitch himself makes an entrance wearing a t-shirt that reads "I'm available for children's parties" up front. The joke is complete once he steps forward and the back of the shirt can be read, which adds "...and funerals". The match itself follows the classic GSW recipe of "short and bloody" with Magwitch mainly taking blow after blow as he cackles madly. Always happy to watch the psycho clown get bloodied, fans come alive in support of the badass Jamaican who completes the beatdown with a Standing Powerslam for the win.

E-Soteric Invitational Final

Devyn Retribution vs JOJI

Death's Door match</div>

JOJI is off to a hot start thanks to his speed, explosiveness and agility, catching his opponent by surprise to pull off some spectacular moves and get the crowd going. It's only once Devyn Retribution realizes he doesn't have to keep up with the high flyer from Japan but play to his own strengths that he's able to fight back, grounding JOJI thanks to a rare display of technical prowess. Mat grappling isn't what fans come to GSW for though and Devyn smartly switches it up, using the time JOJI is recovering on the mat to leave the ring and grab a chair. JOJI takes a few shots on the back as he tries to get on his feet, but perseveres and explodes into a dropkick that sends the chair into his opponent's face. Ref count gets to six before Devyn Retribution is back up again, but JOJI takes him down once more RVD-style, tossing a chair for him to grab before he kicks it in with a spinning heel kick. Signalling to the ref about not starting the count just yet, JOJI climbs the turnbuckle and hits the JOJI Miracle Explosion onto Devyn (who's still holding the chair on top of him) which finally keeps him down until ten.

Winner: JOJI

Rushing out from backstage, E-Soteric whacks JOJI in the face with his GSW West Coast title as Cindy circles the ring to grab a mic for him from the timekeeper's table.

"Welcome to the West Coast, motherf*cker! Better have eyes in the back o' your head at all times, never know when a n***a's gonna jump you from behind, know what I'm sayin'? I'll see yo' ass next month."

CC: "What a statement by the GSW West Coast champion, that's twice now he's jumped his contenders after a match!"

TC: "I'm more worried about that young man's use of foul language. He doesn't seem to be in the best of company either."

CC: "Are you saying Cindy is not to be trusted because she jumped ship from IPW? Well, so did E-Soteric!"

TC: "No Caves, I mean she doesn't look like the type who'd attend a Sunday mess."

CC: "True, I bet she'd be hungover from some Saturday night party, just like the ones that rock this club every week!"

Mexico's Finest comes out and is quickly joined by MexiCain, who has a mic at hand. The two men get in the ring and turn to face the entrance as MexiCain speaks.

"This sh*t's gone to far, esse. First State of Destruction screw us out of the titles, then Fro Sure puts you in a match against them with that clown at your corner, now LatiNoFear ain't around and I know Grimm Inc's behind it again, so here's what's gonna go down; Fro Sure, you get yo afro ass out here and come clean about your b*tch-ass dealings with the big man up top again, then my crew can kick both Boneyard and BB's asses in a match that I demand tonight."

<div style="text-align:center;">http://i195.photobucket.com/albums/z115/Scavenger68/TEW/GSW/Fro%20Sure.jpg<img alt="xXSCygv.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/xXSCygv.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="K14fImu.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/K14fImu.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="LBt9mdU.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/LBt9mdU.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></div>

It takes a moment for added dramatic effect, but Fro Sure comes out in full force: title on his shoulder, Kali Fornia by his side and seconds later, flanked by State of Destruction. Pulling a mic out of his afro, the GSW American champion speaks up with a smile on his face.

"You are in no position to demand anything, homie. You're right about one thing though, Grimm Inc is indeed the reason your esse LatiNoFear ain't around no more. You see, Brother Grimm fired his ass last month! Won't be seeing him again, but have no fear, you got your big gorilla there to back you up."

MexiCain isn't happy with the news and neither is Mexico's Finest with the name-calling.

"You send your two gorillas there down here, we gonna f*ck 'em up good for what you did!"

Again, Fro Sure smiles and shakes his head.

"I told you homeboy, your demands don't mean sh*t here. But don't worry, as champion, it is my duty to make sure the GSW fans get their dough's worth, so I called in some... notorious replacements."

Mexico's Finest & MexiCain vs Notorious

Death's Door match</div>

Tensions already high from the pre-match segment, the GSW veterans charge to meet the newcomers halfway to the ring and the match is off to an early start that sets the pace for the absolute car crash that's to follow. Gang style beatdowns, street fighting, weapons, all done at a frenzied pace that feels like a hurricane has entered the Warehouse. Fans get caught up in the ultra realistic vibe of the match, which thankfully somewhat hides the fact that Mexico's Finest and MexiCain seem to have zero chemistry as partners, as MexiCain often forgets he's not teaming with LatiNoFear and Finest misses his teammate's cues. That disconnect makes the teamwork of Notorious stand out even more and barely eight minutes after first contact, Miguel Rivera puts MexiCain down for the count with a Shot in the Dark.

Winners: Notorious

Once again, Cali Slick steps out with CJ Weston by his side.

"I ain't heard from you two since I made my offer two weeks ago. Now you see what happens. You lost a man, but I'm still down if you wanna go up against Grimm Inc, so here's what I suggest: Myself and the two of you, against Fro Sure and State of Destruction, 3 on 3."

Fans cheer at the idea and this time Mexico's Finest and MexiCain seem to be a bit more receptive to Cali Slick's suggestion.

Once the ring is cleared, Fro Sure returns to make his grand entrance as he's led to the ring by Kali Fornia for the main event match. Once he's done dancing and posing, Kali Fornia hands him a mic.

"I just wanna give a quick shout-out to my man, Brother Grimm, for making this match happen tonight. It's an honor to fight against a hardcore legend like Madman Boone and it'll be even better once I've beat him."

GSW American title match

Fro Sure (with Kali Fornia) vs Madman Boone (with Little Miss Sunshine)

Last Blood match</div>

Little Miss Sunshine happily rolls a baby stroller to ringside, but the childish image of the scene comes to an abrupt end once Madman Boone starts to pull out all sorts of weapons with razor wire or nails. The message is clear from early on, he's here to make the champion bleed early and bleed a lot. Fro Sure makes the best of his lean wiry frame to duck and dodge the big clumsy old man, retaliating when able with strikes and punches. Once he gets cocky though and reaches for a weapon, Boone is able to finally connect with a big boot to take him down. The hardcore veteran unloads on his fallen opponent, trying every weapon on him until referee Moore Vincent is able to pull him away and give Fro a chance to catch his breath. Despite Boone's complaints about the ref being supposed to count instead, the argument indeed allows Fro Sure to recover and whack his opponent between the legs with a nail-covered 2x4 board in a cringe-worthy spot. Proving Boone's complaining right, Moore Vincent proceeds to count really fast up to ten before he calls for the bell.

Winner and STILL GSW American champion: Fro Sure

With Kandii by his side, Busta Capp comes out shortly after the main event is over to crash Fro Sure's party.

"What a glorious victory," Capp says full of irony, while Fro Sure shouts about winning any way it takes and raises his title in defiance. "Still, it's not why I'm here. I've said I'd bounce back to the top and here I am. Now that you've beat Boone, you're gonna need a new challenger. Before you say anything about our past battles though, let me remind you and everyone out here, you ain't ever beat me one on one, Fro Fro!"
