Self Posted August 18, 2019 Share Posted August 18, 2019 Sunday, Week 1, January 2019 Prince George, British Columbia 3,100 in attendance IN-RING Big, bad and angry, BLOCKBUSTER stands in the middle of the ring, CGC World Title around his waist, microphone in his hand. BLOCKBUSTER None of you thought I could do it. You all thought I was crazy to challenge Jack DeColt last month at Survival of the Fittest. You all thought that he'd beat me into the ground, just like he's done to everyone else who's stepped in his path for the last twenty years. You were wrong. Twenty years is a long time, and it hasn't been kind to The Wild Man. The fire is his eyes has left him. The rage in his fists has left him. His friends have left him. Christian Price. Ricky DeColt. Donte Dunn. All gone. Now CGC belongs to Blockbuster, and it's time I started acting like it. On Blockbuster's signal, the gold & red banners of CGC are replaced by silver & black, and the ringside crew remove the aprons from the ring to reveal a gigantic custom-built speaker system. BLOCKBUSTER You want teeny-bopper wrestling? You want skinny-boy dance routines? Go somewhere else. I'm the Champ! I am the face of this company. I have the music of a champion and you lucky dweebs are finally going to get the hear it the way it is meant to be heard. Blockbuster's heavy metal music starts blarring from the in-ring speaker system. It's deafening. The first dozen rows of fans cover their ears. Children burst into tears. It keeps getting louder and louder and LOUDER AND- Blockbuster's music is suddenly cut off, replaced by the music of ALEX DECOLT, playing at a more sensible, less painful volume from the regular speaker system. ALEX DECOLT Woah. Woah. Hold on a second, Buster. You may be the champion, but this is still DeColt County. These people paid good money to be here, and I think they'd like to leave with their hearing intact. BLOCKBUSTER What are you gonna do about it, old man? I know you won't fight me. ALEX DECOLT No, but I know someone who will. See, back in 1996 my father George DeColt started a tradition. That the first episode of Title Bout Wrestling each year would start off with a bang, with one exceptional rookie getting a chance of a lifetime a chance to step up and take a shot at the CGC World Title. You can change the colours, you can change the ring, but you'll never change the heart and the traditions of CGC. You want to keep your sound system? You want to keep being the CGC Champion? You're going to have to defend it tonight against the 2018 Young Wrestler of the Year; Ian Identity. BLOCKBUSTER Another pretty boy? Another teeny-bopper for the kids to clap for? Let him come. I am the most metal champion in CGC history, and I'll break him just like the others. Blockbuster's heavy metal music blasting out of his custom-built soundstage gets louder and louder and LOUDER and LOUDER and... Davis Ditterich "Ladies and Gentleman welcome to Canadian Golden Combat's Title Bout Wrestling, where match-maker extraordinaire Alex DeColt has just announced tonight's main event. Blockbuster shocked the country when he became the CGC World Champion, but can he now defend it against Ian Identity?" Adrian Garcia "If you ask me Ian's in for a world of hurt. Look at all these speakers! Blockbuster's making himself at home as the champ... and I personally think that's great. I love the heavy metal music. It doesn't give me a headache at all." DIRTY DICE ELDERBERRY VS RYAN POWELL Davis Ditterich "We kick off 2019 with classic CGC action. Two colourful veterans go to war." Nerdy germaphobe Ryan Powell tries to explain the importance of good hygeine to his belching, farting opponent, but all he gets are Belly Butts in return. Ryan's helpless against Elderberry's powerful stentch, until the threat of having his face shoved into an armpit makes him snap. Nerd Raaaaaaage! Speed of The Flash! Hammer of Thor! Bazinga! Bazumba! Bazongo! Crossbody off the Top! 1... 2... 3! RYAN POWELL WINS (10:10) Adrian Garcia "What a dork. The only way he'd get laid would be if his mother was a chicken. BACKSTAGE JENNY PLAYMATE can barely contain her glee as she looks at her name on the door of the challenger's locker room. "Jenny Playmate - Manager". Taking a deep breath, she straightens up her business suit, adjusts her bunny ears, and opens the door. Chaos Reigns. The locker room is an absolute mess, with clothing scattered everywhere and fast-food cartons piled in disgusting heaps. MARIO DASILVA is painting a mural of himself breaking someone's arm on the wall. PENFOLD PERDITION is tucking into an entire birthday cake. At least IAN IDENTITY, mid-phone-call, looks happy to see her. JENNY PLAYMATE Are you kidding me??? I left you guys alone for 5 minutes. Penfold! Put that down, you're on a diet! Mario! We've talked about this, save it for the ring! Ian... I dread to ask. IAN IDENTITY Don't worry. It's good news. A reporter wants to do a piece on my title match tonight. Just needs to verify my info. You know, standard reporter stuff. Needs my social security number, mother's maiden name, first pet- Jenny snatches the phone out of his hands and hangs up. JENNY PLAYMATE Come on, guys. Don't you want to be more than this? More than comedy acts or sidekicks or that guy who pretended to be a DeColt cousin for two years? You can be Champions. I have spent my whole career dreaming of managing a CGC World Champion and that can be you. Ian. Tonight, that can be you. We just need to buckle down, get serious, and- Penfold! What did I just say??? Penfold Perdition is caught red-handed stuffing another piece of cake in his mouth. JENNY PLAYMATE Come on, man. Alex says if you don't lose 10 pounds he's not going to book you again. JAMIE ATHERTON VS MARIO DASILVA w/ Jenny Playmate Davis Ditterich "Jenny Playmate has become one of the premier managers of young talent in Canadian Golden Combat." The Brazilion Tapout Artist tries to take it to the mat, but White Lighting's gottagofastfastFASTFASTFAST!!! Mario can't keep up. More than just a pretty face, Jenny advises he stop aiming where Atherton is, and instead aim for where he's going to be. It works! Da Silva scores a double leg and turns Atherton's body into his latest masterpiece, twisting each limb into beatufifully horrifying contortions. Kimura! Atherton taps! MARIO DASILVA WINS (7:49) Adrian Garcia "I heard Jenny Playmate took an IQ test the other week. It came back negative." For one night only, weapons are legal... but which one will you get? 6 Weeks Away IN-RING DAN DALAY I've had some great days in my life. Won a lot of titles. Smashed a lot of dorks. That all pales in comparison to the day my boy told me he wanted to follow in his old man's footsteps and be a pro-wrestler. He's trained hard. And now I get to introduce him as the newest member of the CGC roster. DAN DALAY This is Robin DaLay, and you dorks are going to treat him with the exact same amount of respect as you treat me, or I'm going to come over there and knock out each and every one of you. As his father it's my responsibility to teach him the ways of the world, and that's just what I'm going to do. Why don't you say hello to the nice people, Robin? Just like I taught ya. ROBIN DALAY You guys are dorks. DAN DALAY That's my boy! Now someone tell Alex to find us some asses to kick. Next week CGC becomes DaLay Country. CGC TAG TEAM TITLE MATCH Phillipe LaGrenier & Hugh Ancrie EXPRESS DELIVERY THE GEAR-HEADS © Greaser & Torque Davis Ditterich "The Gear-Heads, Greaser & Torque have taken on all comers since winning the Tag Team Titles last June." The Gear-Heads park up their custom-built motorcycles and start dismantling their opponents with hammering, wrenching, and drilling, with Torque mimicking his partner's every move. Acrie & LaGrenier deliver parcels of pain to try to isolate the smaller biker, but Torque burns rubber to make the tag! Greaser empties out his toolbox to take the Express apart! Grease Spot (High Knee)! Torque hits Pedal To The Metal (Curb Stomp)! 1... 2... 3! THE GEAR-HEADS RETAIN (11:56) Adrian Garcia "When the doctor told Greaser reduce his portion sizes, he didn't mean his tag team partner." CGC WORLD TITLE THE RECENT HISTORY February 2017 - The Genetically Engineered Fighting Machine Gargantuan ends Jack DeColt's 18 month reign as World Champion with a Ultimate Backbreakaaaaaaaah! He promises a reign that will last a thousand years. October 2017 - Taking on Ryan Powell in a title defense at CGC Apocalypse, Gargantuan charges headfirst into a ringpost, breaking his neck. He still manages to defeat the nerdy challenger, but has to abdicate the title the following Sunday. November 2017 - The tournament to crown a new Champion concludes at Survival of the Fittest. Jack DeColt ends Bobby Thomas' unexpected hot streak to become a 7 time CGC World Champion. 2018 - Undisputed king of CGC, Jack DeColt defends the title against a slew of outside forces. Texas Pete. Charlie Thatcher. Wade Orson. He wins the Ultimate Showdown Series. He wins the Last Man Standing Rumble. November 2018 - Survival of the Fittest. One year into his latest reign, Jack DeColt take a moment to showboat for the fans... and pays for it. His opponent Blockbuster plucks him from the turnbuckles and destroys him with a devastating BusterBomb (Turnbuckle Powerbomb)! 1... 2... 3. A new champion is crowned to stunned silence. CGC WORLD TITLE MATCH w/ Jenny Playmate IAN IDENTITY VS BLOCKBUSTER © Davis Ditterich "Blockbuster... um... BLOCKBUSTER SHOCKED THE WORLD WHEN HE BEAT JACK DECOLT FOR THE CGC WORLD TITLE IN NOVEMBER AND NOW... NOW... CAN ANYONE HEAR ME OVER THIS MUSIC?" Identity's ears are ringing after the champion's extra-loud entrance music and Blockbuster uses that to his advantage, thrashing and shredding and beating him like a drum. Ian fearlessly battles back, but it's like punching a brick wall and he gets overwhelmed by head-banging from the heavy metal-mauler. More than just a pretty face, Jenny rallies the crowd behind her client. Intense Clotheslines! Incredible Dropkick! Inverted Neckbreaker! Identity goes for the Intrepid Arrow (Arrow Suplex) but the Champion is too big and too strong. Blockbuster rings his bell with a clip to the ear and annihaltes Ian with a BusterBomb (Powerbomb to the Turnbuckles)! 1... 2... 3! BLOCKBUSTER RETAINS (13:37) Adrian Garcia "I knew Jenny couldn't do it. Let's just say 'talents' like hers don't improve with age." Blockbuster stands over the fallen challenger, holding his CGC World Title belt aloft as his heavy metal music blasts out of his custom-built in-ring speaker system and gets louder and louder and LOUDER and LOUDER and... Blockbuster's deafening music is suddenly cut off, replaced by the music of JACK DECOLT, playing at a more sensible, less painful volume from the regular speaker system. The Wild Man storms down to the ring, microphone in hand. JACK DECOLT 2018 was shaping up to be the best year of my career. Sure, I've been World Champion before. Sure, I've won the Last Man Standing Rumble before. I won singles matches and tag matches and cage matches and weapons matches and started streaks and ended streaks and won races and punched faces- I've done it all before... but never like that. Never all at once. I was on the roll of a lifetime... and then you took that from me. Blockbuster smirks. JACK DECOLT You're right about one thing, Blockbuster, I did underestimate you. I thought I was stepping into the ring with the same blunt instrument you've always been, but you've sharpened yourself into something deadly, haven't you? You've learned. You've adapted. And I paid the price. But you've forgotten one very important thing. I also won the Ultimate Showdown Series last year Blockbuster freezes. JACK DECOLT And everyone knows that the winner of the Ultimate Showdown Series gets three Wishes. Three unbreakable, undeniable Wishes that have to be granted by CGC management. I used my first two to make CGC a better place. I didn't want to waste them on fun things like wrath and vengeance. But I think I've earned a little something for myself. I have someone I want to fight and somewhere I want to fight him. Protectively clutching his CGC World Title to his chest, Blockbuster glares. JACK DECOLT Final Wish - In twelve weeks at the DeColt WrestleFestival. Jack DeColt gets a one-on-one match with... Adrian Garcia! BLOCKBUSTER What? Davis Ditterich "WHAT???" Adrian Garcia "Um... what?" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So for my private games I've started entering the world unemployed, letting the AI do what it wants for 2/3/5 years, and then jumping in to pick up the pieces. This is a game using my favourite data set/scenario that has come from that. It's a CGC on the brink. Their main event is aging out. Their next generation have been poached or injured beyond repair. Their champion is an unproven gamble. They're losing a lot of money. I have some fixing to do. </p><p> </p><p> First task was to renegotiate the broadcasting deals, both for the numbers and for my own personal preferences.</p><p> </p><p> - Title Bout Wrestling has changed from 2 hours to 90 minutes, and from Late Night to Late Evening. </p><p> - PPVs have moved from a small to a medium provider. I'm also planning to cut down to 7-8 PPVs per year. Longer builds. More important matches on television. Frankly, I don't know why anyone would buy 12 PPVs a year of any company, let alone the 11th best in the world. All that's been decided so far is that there will be no 'Elimination', giving me a 6-week build to Luck of the Draw.</p><p> </p><p> This was a table-setting show. Four 'okay' matches saved by two strong promo segments. I knew Jack was going to nail his promo, but Dan DaLay really overdelivered. Turns out that over the past three years the Giant Amongst Giants has found his groove on the microphone. I had hoped that the main event would have been a little stronger, but that's the reality we're dealing with. Blockbuster barely auto-pushes to an upper midcarder, and Ian was the best of a bad situation. Young babyfaces have not been booked strongly in recent years. </p><p> </p><p> The goal of this diary is to get CGC back on track, and to tell some fun stories while I'm at it. I can't promise this is going to be a long lasting project. I'm a much busier person than I used to do, with far less of an interest in wrestling. I'm certain I'll finish up when TEW2020 comes out, but my minimum goal is Chaos in the Cage in May. </p><p> </p><p> </p><div style="text-align:center;"><img alt="HFdiLDs.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/HFdiLDs.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></div><p></p><p></p><p> </p><p> Next Week on CGC Title Bout Wrestling...</p><p> </p><p> Shane Nelson, Bobby Thomas & Ryan Powell vs Blockbuster, Skip Beau & Diablo DeVille</p><p> Dan DaLay & Robin DaLay vs Chris Flynn & Hugh DeArrrrrske</p><p> Dice Elderberry vs Mario DaSilva</p><p> Dermott Ayres vs Jack DeColt</p> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Lloyd Posted August 18, 2019 Share Posted August 18, 2019 Shane Nelson, Bobby Thomas & Ryan Powell vs Blockbuster, Skip Beau & Diablo DeVille Nelson and Thomas would be an interesting duo in my opinion!! Dan DaLay & Robin DaLay vs Chris Flynn & Hugh DeArrrrrske Robin has some potential. Dice Elderberry vs Mario DaSilva Dermott Ayres vs Jack DeColt Others have said it, but it's so good to have you back. On With The Show is probably my favourite diary of all time. I'd like to see a roster update if you can? Maybe find out where Ricky, Price, Donte, Poison, Zeus and Thrill Seeker ended up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Self Posted August 21, 2019 Author Share Posted August 21, 2019 It's less been a case of time, and more what I want to reveal. I prefer to have the shows do the work where I can, but in this scenario the roster I've been saddled with in the game is something of interest. I just don't like how roster lists colour people's idea of what characters are/how they're going to be used. Draw: Jack DeColt, (Alex DeColt) Recognisable: Dan DaLay, Ryan Powell, (Jenny Playmate) Well Known: (Faith) Regional Stars: Blockbuster, Bobby Thomas, Dice Elderberry, Sayid Ali, Shane Nelson, Skip Beau, Texas Pete, Zeus Maxmillion, (Adrian Garcia), (Davis Ditterich), (Hailey Hunter) Regional Level: Chris Flynn, Dermott Ayres, Diablo DeVille, Drake Young, Greaser, Hugh Ancrie, Hugh De Arrrrske, Ian Identity, Jaime Atherton, Malik Cash, Mario DaSilva, Nathan Black, Phillipe LaGrenier, Torque, Unknown: Penfold Perdition, Robin DaLay As for the big leavers over the past three years... Ricky DeColt. Poached by USPW in May'16, where he is still an opener. Christian Price. Poached by NOTBPW in March'17, where he quickly became TV champion. Unfortunately tore his meniscus a year later. Returning to action in 3 months. Donte Dunn. Poached by NOTBPW in March'17, but hasn't done much beyond a blink-and-you'll-miss-it tag title reign with Flash Savage. Ozzie Golden. Signed with NOTPW in April'18 and immediately got hurt with knee ligament damage. Gargantuan. As mentioned in the show, broke his neck in October '17. Has since gotten flabby and was released before he finished his recovery. Joey Poison. Released in March'17. Has since become head booker of GSW. Stevie Grayson. Released in October'17. Current ACPW champion Whippy The Clown. Released in November'17 Destiny & Fate. Both retired in 2017, whereupon the New Soldiers of Fortune were inducted into the CGC Hall of Fame. Fate opened 'Fate School' wrestling dojo in September. I'll be keeping an eye out for graduates. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Self Posted August 25, 2019 Author Share Posted August 25, 2019 Sunday Week 2 January 2019 Edmonton, Alberta 2,900 in attendance Davis Ditterich "Our main event tonight is a huge Elimination style 6-man tag team match, in which three of CGC's most decorated veterans hope to stake their claim to the Blockbuster's World Title. But first, Jack DeColt has used his third and final wish to choose his opponent for WrestleFestival... and that opponent is standing in the ring right now." IN-RING A nervous, sweaty, and visibly shaking, ADRIAN GARCIA is in the ring. ADRIAN GARCIA I know what you all heard last week, and I' m sure you all had a good chuckle imagining what it would be like to watch me get into the ring with Jack DeColt, but do not get too excited. I am many things. An expert talent scout. A world-class negotiator. A superb commentator whose wit is only matched by his willingness to tell harsh truths. But I am not a fighter, and Jack DeColt is one of the most formidable warriors that has ever lived. He would destroy me in ten seconds flat. So no. I will not be accepting Jack's challenge. JACK DECOLT I think you've misunderstood, Garcia. This isn't a challenge. This is a Wish. Unrefutable. Unstoppable. Undeniable. You have no choice in this. I wished it. It's happening. ADRIAN GARCIA Jack... Whatever I've done to offend you.... JACK DECOLT Gee whiz, let me think. You've interfered in matches, bribed officials, created an Elite talent agency with the sole purpose of destroying the DeColt Family, put a bounty of Steve's head, set Alex's house on fire, hit me with a car, stole Ricky's dog... ADRIAN GARCIA This... This was all... years ago. JACK DECOLT And yet you never really got your commupance, did you? Sure, we beat up your clients. Sure, we ruined a few of your crooked business deals. But at the end of it all you got to sit at commentary, being the same snide, smart-alec, mean jerk you've always been. I was listening to you last week. I was all set to use my wish on something completely different and then I heard the mean things you said about Ryan and Mario and the Gear-Heads and Jenny. All the memories came flooding back, and all I wanted to do was punch you in the face, and then I realised I could. On the biggest stage in Canadian Golden Combat. At my father's WrestleFestival. ADRIAN GARCIA I... But... No. This is ridiculous. I don't care what you say, this 'match' isn't going to happen. I'll find a way out of this. JACK DECOLT I look forward to seeing you try. DIRTY DICE ELDERBERRY VS MARIO DaSILVA /w Jenny Playmate Davis Ditterich "Jenny Playmate's dream of managing a CGC World Champion didn't come true with Ian Identity last week. Could her Tapout Artist be the one to break her through to managerial greatness?" Belching and farting, Elderberry bounces Mario with Belly Butts and shoves his face into his armpit. More than just a pretty face, Jenny rallies the crowd, giving The Tapout Artist the inspiration to turn Elderberry's body his latest masterpiece, twisting each limb into beautifully horrifying contortions. He tries a Kimura, but Dice's powerful stench makes Mario hold his nose. Without the correct grip, Elderberry escapes. RPM Bomb (Spinning Crucifix Toss)! 1... 2... 3! DICE ELDERBERRY WINS (8:13) DIRTY DICE ELDERBERRY Hey, blondie. You say your dream's to manage a World Champion, right? Then what are you doing with this scrub when you could be managing a real man like me? Come on. Let's get dirty. You don't even got to do nothin' and I'll make all your dreams come true. For one night only, weapons are legal... but which one will you get? 5 Weeks Away BOILER ROOM In the shadowy basement of the arena, CGC World Champion BLOCKBUSTER and CGC Canadian Champion SKIP BEAU stand over a spooky cauldron. SKIP BEAU Boy, Blockbuster, you sure dodged a bullet last week. I thought for sure Jack was going to use his Wish to challenge you for the CGC World Title. Blockbuster glares. SKIP BEAU Not that you should be afraid of that! You beat him before, you can probably beat him again. I mean definitely! You'd definitely beat him again. You're so great. It's just annoying that all these pesky veterans are teaming up to take you on. Blockbuster glares. SKIP BEAU Not that they stand a chance either! You could beat them all by yourself, if you wanted... Is that what you want? Because I can leave you to it... if... Or would you rather I...? BLOCKBUSTER Just do the ritual. Relieved to finally be told what to do, Skip Beau lights a match and throws it into the cauldron, which promptly bursts into flames. DIABLO DEVILLE Who dares summon me? BLOCKBUSTER I dare. I have souls for you. DALAY & SON VS CHRIS FLYNN & HUGH DeARRRSKE Davis Ditterich "Dan DaLay's son has arrived in Canadian Golden Combat. Let's see if Robin has what it takes to follow in his father's footsteps." Dan DaLay bullies the smaller men around the ring, taking the time to teach his son the nuances of clubbing blows and bear hugs. Robin's not the quickest learner however, which allows Hugh to cut loose with a series of Arrrrmdrags and Yo-Ho-Holds. DaLay Sr saves his boy with a big boot and gives Flynn the DaLay Down (Belly-to-Belly Piledriver) before giving Robin step-by-step instructions on how to deliver the same move to DeArrrske for the pin. DALAY & SON WIN (8:06) BACKSTAGE ADRIAN GARCIA is pleading his case to CGC referees JONATHAN TAYLOR and JEZ MACARTHUR. ADRIAN GARCIA ... and that is why, as highly dignified officers of law and order and decency, you should refuse to officiate such a ridiculous match. JEZ MACARTHUR No can do, Adrian. A Wish is a Wish. JONATHAN TAYLOR Not like we haven't had to officiate ridiculous things before. ALEX DECOLT'S OFFICE Behold the organized chaos of the matchmaker extraordinaire's office. Charts and graphs cover every inch of the walls. A pyramid of monitors play looped footage of wrestling talent from all corners of the world. A scale model of Bearberry Field shows the latest failed attempt at jigawing every ride, stall and attraction into this year's WrestleFestival. A bucket of weapons marked "Luck of the Draw ideas" is dangerously overflowing. Not that ALEX DECOLT is paying any attention to that right now. Instead, he's staring at a stretching JACK DECOLT in confusion. ALEX DECOLT Is this a joke? If this is a joke you have to tell me before I start printing the posters. JACK DECOLT Since when have you known me to have a sense of humour? ALEX DECOLT It's just... Adrian Garcia? You could fight anyone at WrestleFestival. Stars from around the world. Legends from any decade. Yet you choose Adrian Garcia? It's not going to be much of a match. JACK DECOLT Wouldn't think so, no. ALEX DECOLT Then why do you want this? JACK DECOLT I just do. I'm not going to pretend I have some heroic reason for it. I just... He deserves it. DERMOTT AYRES VS JACK DECOLT Davis Ditterich "It looks like Jack's serious about wanting to fight Adrian Garcia at WrestleFestival." Jack calmly counters the pint-sized pitbull's modern ground game with old-school amateur techniques, until Ayriss goes for the eyes. Jack's rage builds and builds under Ayriss relentless assault until he snaps, going berserk with right hands and shoulder tackles before Punching! Him! In! The! Face! Wild Ride (Whiplash Slam)! End of Days (Bow & Arrow Dragon Sleeper)! Ayres taps! JACK DECOLT WINS (4:35) Davis Ditterich "A dominant victory for DeColt. If he can do that against Ayres, what chance does my broadcast partner have?" ALEX DECOLT'S OFFICE ADRIAN GARCIA You're a smart man, Alex. You can't possiibly think this 'match' is a good idea. ALEX DECOLT Of course I don't. Every day I'm getting phone calls from the biggest stars in wrestling, all begging for the chance to headline WrestleFestival against Jack DeColt... and now I have to turn them down. All because he'd rather fight you. ADRIAN GARCIA Excellent. So you'll cancel the match? ALEX DECOLT I would if I could, but it's not up to me. He used a Wish. There's nothing I can do. THE MATH OF CANADIAN GOLDEN COMBAT CGC MAINSTAYS Who has been here the longest? 5. Shane Nelson. Debuted June 2001 = 17 years 7 months 4. Ryan Powell. Debuted May 2001 = 17 years 8 months 3. Bobby Thomas. Debuted April 2000 = 18 years 9 months 2. Dan DaLay. Debuted May 1997 = 21 years 8 months 1. Jack DeColt. Debuted May 1995 = 23 years 8 months ELIMINATION MATCH DIABLO DEVILLE, BLOCKBUSTER & SKIP BEAU SHANE NELSON, RYAN POWELL, & BOB THOMAS Davis Ditterich " Three ... ahem... THREE OF CGC'S LONGEST SERVING VETERANS HAVE GATHERED FOR THIS ELIMINATION-STYLE MATCH. CAN ONE OF THEM EARN A SHOT AT BLOCKBUSTER'S CGC WORLD TITLE?" Both teams collide in a wild brawl, pairing off and spilling outside of the ring. Nelson unloads on Blockbuster, but it's like punching a brick wall and he gets slammed on the concrete. The demon DeVille defies the laws of mortal physics to wipe out Powell with a springboard off of the guard rail. Inside the ring, Thomas latches onto Skip's arm and shows no mercy in trying to rip it from its socket... but gets blindsided by DeVille's Hell Fire Kick (Backflip Kick). The treacherous trio triple team Thomas, with the CGC World Champion's giving orders to thrash, shred, and beat him like a drum. Diablo Damnation (Top Rope Splash to Back)! 1... 2... Shane's back in for the save! Dropkicks! Monkey Flips! Skip drops to his knees, begging for mercy, and when Shane turns in disgust he eats a big clothesline from Blockbuster. Three-on-two, the villains try desperately to get an elimination before- Nerd Raaaaaaage! Powell's back in! Speed of The Flash! Hammer of Thor! Bazinga! Bazumba! Bazongo! Ryan nails Blockbuster & Beau with a Crossbody off the Top! Diablo springboards in, but Powell now has his trajectory calculated. Super Kick! Specialist Touch (Single Arm DDT)! Nelson with the Daredevil Drop (Senton Bomb)! 1... 2... 3! DIABLO DEVILLE HAS BEEN ELIMINATED Skip waffles Powell & Nelson from behind, but Thomas takes him down in an armbar, eager to finish the job he started early. Skip screams and taps! SKIP BEAU HAS BEEN ELIMINATED Blockbuster finds himself alone with three CGC veterans, and for a moment considers taking them all on... but instead leaves, allowing himself to be counted out. SHANE NELSON, RYAN POWELL, & BOB THOMAS WIN (19:44) Davis Ditterich "A decisive victory from these three CGC veterans. Blockbuster chose to walk away tonight, but I get the feeling he won't have that option in the weeks to come." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B- 0.85 rating (up from 0.82 last week) An improvement over last week's show, because I actually booked a real main event this time. Thomas, Powell & Nelson are extremely solid workers that the fans know and like, and Skip adds some showmanship to the heel side that Blockbuster lacks. Diablo DeVille had the "worst" performance, but in CGC that just translates to being less popular, and he only debuted in October after all. The predictions were fun to read. I can see why, based on the booking of the first show, folks would pick Mario over Dice and Team Blockbuster over the perennial midcarders. I'm setting the table. This will all become predictable soon enough, if my previous projects are anything to go by. My next step in 'fixing' CGC is to put together a skeleton crew of 10-12 workers to make some extra income doing house shows in smaller towns. They'll require written deals, so these will be mostly lower end guys who were going to be booked on most shows anyway. For example, Robin DaLay needs training and is therefore cheaper to sign to a Written, while Dan DaLay is perfect just as he is so is cheaper on a PPA. Robin makes the team. I'll have some headliners (top guys who need locking down long term) but this is mostly a financial move. Next Sunday, on CGC Title Bout Wrestling...

DAVEFAN95 Posted August 25, 2019 Share Posted August 25, 2019 Bobby Thomas vs Blockbuster © Blockbuster isn't losing his belt on TV Diablo DeVille vs Ryan Powell I give this to Powell purely because Diablo did poorly last time out but I could see him winning but I'll go DQ loss Dice Elderberry vs Ian Identity I like the Dice Elderberry character Dan & Robin DaLay vs Express Delivery (LaGrenier & Ancrie) DaLay for president and Robin for vice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Lions Posted August 27, 2019 Share Posted August 27, 2019 CGC World Title: Bobby Thomas vs Blockbuster © Similar to above sentiments, I don't see Blockbuster losing on regular TV. Diablo DeVille vs Ryan Powell I feel like with all the hype to Diablo, I can see him getting a singles win. Dice Elderberry vs Ian Identity Dice is a big guy who can put on solid matches, Ian is young enough that a loss here doesn't hurt him too much. Beating Dice should feel like a reasonably big deal. Dan & Robin DaLay vs Express Delivery (LaGrenier & Ancrie) I feel like the betting money is on the DaLays, but the "makeshift" duo just had a tightly contested tag title shot and are two solid guys, while Robin is still green and him losing would be totally fine.
