Murderland

Attendance: 99

 

 

 

So it happened. I fired Anders Thunder. Wrongly as it turned out. Can’t focus on that too much at the moment. I know they’re all talking about me behind my back. Need to block that out.

 

 

* * *

 

 

I open the show just like any other normal show. Nothing wrong here. No, you’re paranoid. I begin reading the rundown and, as is customary, I get interrupted… this time by Mad Dog Mortimer. Could there be anyone less invited? Well, maybe Leopard King.

 

“Silas Odswald, you be out hollering like a stuck pig. Ain’t no one care for your woes. I’m sat in the back and all I can hear is your whiny little voice all up in my ear. Your mouth be overloading your tail. Time to either fish or cut bait.”

 

I think that means he’s going to fight me. I’ve no idea.

Mad Dog Mortimer vs Silas Odswald – Hardcore match

For some reason this has become a hardcore match. I still have no idea why Mort wants to fight me other than he generally has to be fighting someone. In my mind I christen this The Battle of the Hats: my superb skull top hat vs his Confederate bullsh*t. The match is dreadful, obviously. Mad Dog knocks me to the ground with a shovel and hits a sloppy Moonsault for the win. I should spend less time thinking about hats.

Seth Whitehead comes to the ring with Clare South on one arm and proudly displaying his newly won OWC Heavyweight Championship on the other. He tells the fans that he is the first two-time OWC champion and he plans on holding on to the belt for a long time. He begins thanking the fans for their support but he is interrupted by unfamiliar entrance music. Avenged Sevenfold’s Nightmare plays and the curtain is wrenched back by ‘The Canadian Nightmare’ Robin DaLay!

 

“Seth Whitehead, you can wipe that puzzled gawp off your face, I’ll tell you why I’m out here in a moment. Do you know who my father is? He is one of the greatest and most decorated wrestlers in all of Canada, nay, the world! My father is the CGC living legend Dan DaLay. While you slum it down here in the bush leagues, I have a legacy to fulfil. And it starts… tonight. I’m passing through here on my way to greater things but that ugly little belt of yours can be a funky little stepping stone. The first of many. I’ve already had my people clear it with Odswald – it’s you versus me tonight. Bring the belt, or at least have your bitch carry it for you.”

 

Seth bristles and puts his fists up but DaLay waves him off as he exits through the curtain.

Hurakan vs Swipe Romero

Another newcomer now as Swipe Romero makes his debut in OWC. Not much is known about the youngster other than he’s decided to paint a white stripe down one side of his face for reasons known only to himself. It’s not a great match and Hurakan polishes him off with a Springboard Leg Lariat in quick fashion.

Heather B is in the ring and the fans perk up. She is joined by Martyr who appears to be his usual uncompromising self. Heather tries to conduct a basic interview but Martyr pulls a knife from his boot and begins tossing it back and forth from hand to hand. At the mention of Oniji Hanari, Martyr throws the blade into the canvas and grabs the mic from Miss B.

 

“Hanaaaaaariiiiiiiiiiiii!”

 

The place is silent. There is no response. Martyr is motionless.

 

“This December. Two months from now. At Last House On The Left. The clown will die.”

 

Martyr retrieves his blade and begins to leave the ring only for Leopard King to announce himself.

 

“Martyr, you won’t make it to Last House. You won’t even make it to tomorrow!”

 

Oh boy.

Martyr vs Leopard King

Well, Leopard King is either brave or stupid. Who am I kidding? He is utterly brain dead. And after this match he may well be. Martyr annihilates him. I understand there’s a strange association with Hanari and Leopard King but what made Leopard challenge Martyr tonight I’ll never know. After a second Judgement Slam Leopard stops moving and the ref has to check if he’s still breathing. Martyr is your winner.

OWC Heavyweight Championship

Seth Whitehead (w/ Clare South) vs Robin DaLay

I was excited when I found out the son of Dan DaLay might be available for bookings and moved heaven and earth to make it happen. I needed a quick fix after Anders Thunder’s departure so when Robin told me he wanted a crack at the champion I had no problem with it. Whitehead and ‘The Canadian Nightmare’ look good in there and go toe-to-toe in an engaging, athletic contest. It’s not what OWC is used to to be honest. A technical battle becomes a wild brawl as both men seek to out-do the other. One mistake is all it may take. DaLay blinks first and Seth catches him with a DDT on the outside. Whitehead rolls back in to the ring and just beats the count. A narrow victory and a solid match.

I caught Leopard King just near my office and stopped to tell him how much I appreciate his work tonight.

 

“Really?” he asked.

 

“No, of course not. You were f*cking atrocious as per usual. My own mother could’ve done better out there and she’s been dead for the last ten years. I reckon she probably smells better too. Now f*ck off.”

 

Leopard looked ready to kill me. I wonder if I’ve pushed him too far this time. I honestly couldn't care if he decided to take a bath with a toaster.

The news came as a shock. I don’t think anyone was prepared for it.</div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;">

In a dazed state I hastily organised an emergency meeting back at the dilapidated bingo hall. The joys of the previous event Murderland, just weeks earlier, were now replaced with a sombre tone. One person was conspicuous by their absence.</div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;">

Everyone was looking at me.</div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;">

“I don’t know how to say this... I still haven’t had time to fully process it yet. I’ve had some bad news. Something I don’t think any of us would have expected, yet can’t say we’re really surprised about. I know we’ve had our differences. I know we’ve not always seen eye to eye, but over these past two years nearly I’ve come to regard you guys as a family. A dysfunctional one and not a particularly well liked one but a family of sorts nonetheless.”</div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;">

I took a deep breath.</div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;">

“And when we lose a member of that family it is a terrible event. Last night... Leopard King handed his notice in. He’s with us for one more show and then he’s out of our lives forever.”</div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;">

Everyone stared in silent disbelief. I broke first and let a slow smile creep across my face before the tidal wave of joy washed over the entire room in a cacophony of whooping and cheering. Leopard wasn’t invited to this meeting but the mean streak in me wished he had been. In an uncharacteristic moment of generosity I opened up my drinks cabinet (it still smelled a bit ripe, even after some hardcore scrubbing) and made sure everyone had something to celebrate with. Tonight was going to be a party.</div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;">

I pulled Texas Hangman to one side.</div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;">

“I’ve picked you to have Leopard’s last match. Make sure it’s his last one.”</div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;">

This is my circus. They leave when I say they leave.</div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;">

Existence Is Pain

Attendance: 100

 

 

 

So Leopard King was in fine spirits on his last night with the company. He began the evening by repeatedly insulting Oniji Hanari. Not getting the expected response he then stole his wig, put it on and danced round the locker room, mocking Hanari’s prominent beer gut. Oniji looked ready to kill him. I broke up the impending fight with Leopard smugly expecting to have the night off. I fined him and told him to shut the f*ck up. Hanari seemed satisfied with this. It’s all just hassle that I don’t need…. so it was unfortunate that Phobia picked this night to be late to a booking meeting. Instant fine, get out of my sight. This upset Phobia. Seth Whitehead and Lucas Danger each forgot to shake hands with someone and I nearly folded the entire company there and then. Please, someone get me some adults to work with. I sentenced them both to buy me bourbon. And not the cheap stuff.

Leopard King vs Texas Hangman

Let’s start the show on a positive. Texas Hangman cracks his knuckles and damn near breaks Leopard King’s jaw with a huge overhand right. There’s no offence here from Leopard, it’s all Hangman as he hammers him into the mat with one power move after another. Tex is very green and a little clumsy but it’s a thing of beauty to watch him drop that fat idiot on his head three times in a row. Leopard’s eyes have glazed over and he’s beginning to whimper... Hangman Chokeslam! Your winner, Texas Hangman.
Rating: F+

 

 

Seth Whitehead makes his way out to the ring and is once again interrupted by ‘The Canadian Nightmare’ Robin DaLay. Seth looks ready to fight but DaLay holds a hand up.

 

“Listen, Whitehead. My father is the Canadian Golden Combat legend Dan DaLay. Do you have any idea what it’s like living in the shadow of a great man? Of course you don't, you’re trash from Minnesota - Canada’s little redheaded step-child. Well I’m here to tell you that last month you got lucky. I will not lose again. I will not be denied my legacy. It starts tonight.”

 

Seth muses this and strokes his unfashionable goatee.

 

“DaLay, that’s twice now you’ve interrupted me. This is my ring, my show. It seems that the fight I took to you last month didn’t get the message across. I don’t care who you are or who your father is and I’ll fight anyone... any time. I’ll see you tonight.”

 

Seth stands defiantly holding his OWC Heavyweight belt above his head as Clare South gives DaLay the stink eye.

Phobia vs Swipe Romero

A short match incorporating the 5 key elements of OWC Lucha: dodge, dip, duck, dive and dodge. Romero launches an awkward looking Tope Suicida which must be a personal highlight. Phobia is a class above though and hits a tilt-a-whirl backbreaker and the Fear Itself (Corkscrew Senton) for the win.
Rating: E

 

 

Swipe Romero attempts to get to his feet and Phobia offers a hand to help him up. It’s all a cruel ruse though as the Masked Man of Fear kicks Romero between the legs and sends him crumpling back into the mat. Phobia begins kicking Romero over and over until the music of Hurakan plays... and the crowd goes mild! Phobia darts from the ring as Hurakan stands guard over the squealing Romero. Absolutely no one cares. One guy shouts “Kick him again!” Great.
Rating: F+

 

 

Martyr vs Silas Odswald – Barbed Wire match

Years later my psychiatrist will describe my booking myself in brutal matches against Martyr as a desperate cry for help. But we’re a long way from that and no cry for help will stop Martyr tonight. You’ve seen this match before, you know how it goes. I’m ripped to shreds and bludgeoned into unconsciousness. Martyr wins with a Judgment Slam onto a barbed wire board. Apparently.
Rating: E

 

 

Martyr celebrates by admiring the barbed wire puncture wounds along his arm. He nods approvingly and makes his way back down the aisle. But from under the ring it’s… ONIJI HANARI!!! Hanari with a baseball bat! The mad clown strikes Martyr across the back and knocks him down. More shots to the chest, arms and legs and a final, heavy blow to the head! Martyr isn’t moving as Hanari wheels away cackling and shrieking. We will see these two fight at Last House (it says on my notes) but what condition Martyr will be in is uncertain. Aaaaand... no one cares. Sigh.

OWC Heavyweight Championship

Seth Whitehead (w/ Clare South) vs Robin DaLay

Their match last month was a fiery encounter and this time it’s no different. The pair trade blows in the centre of the ring with the champion coming off worse. DaLay lands a big boot but Whitehead retaliates with a flying forearm and quick cover. The action comes thick and fast and spills out to the floor, the quicker Whitehead one step ahead of the challenger. Seth is raining blows onto the ‘Canadian Nightmare’ as the referee continues to count. DaLay dodges a running knee and sends Whitehead into the railings, following up with a huge Powerbomb through the timekeeper’s table. Referee Greg Chapman is at nine and DaLay just makes it back into the ring in time. DaLay takes the win but he won’t be satisfied with the count out victory.

I was happy with that show. It wasn’t high on quality but the main event kind of saved it. Most of all I’m just happy to put this whole business with Leopard King behind me. I should have fired his sorry ass after the first week, but here we are. I caught him leaving, dirty rucksack slung over one shoulder like a hobo’s bindle, and called him back. We smiled and awkwardly embraced in full view of the remaining roster who felt moved to spontaneous applause. Not really. I shouted his name and told him if he ever came back his own mother wouldn’t recognise him. Go die in a fire, assshole.
