That it hurts the prestige of the belt, this company, and everyone in that locker room that’s ever fought and clawed their way up the mountain just for a shot at it. And that’s okay, because I agree. I’m one of the people saying that too. And since I’ve got a microphone, I’m the most vocal. And seeing as I have a match scheduled tonight, I have a chance to do something about it. </div></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> The crowd cheered.</div></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> GG: I figured, since the champ is in the tournament, it doesn’t make sense for the winner to be awarded a championship match. No, the tournament should be for all the marbles. The winner of the RCI should get a cup AND ten pounds of leather and gold. So I talked to management, and every match that the champion is in is gonna be for the belt. No matter what, the winner of this tournament is the new champion. It might not be me, but I’m gonna be bold right now and make a prediction. Come November, I, Greg Gauge, will have outlasted 63 other men, and the world will know what I’ve always known: I am the greatest wrestler in the world, and I’ll have the hardware to prove it.</div></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div></div></div></div></div></blockquote><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div></div></div></div><blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="47230" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div><div style="text-align:center;"><p><img alt="CX1MzEV.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/CX1MzEV.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><strong>vs</strong></div></div></div></div></div></div><img alt="xd4tFnh.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/xd4tFnh.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><strong> Ace Youngblood vs Billy Russell</strong></div></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><p></p><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> Ace Youngblood, a multiple time tag champ, makes his return here, hoping to score a return victory like his partner Max Mayhem did just months earlier. Unfortunately, he ran into the Puerto Rican Ica Man Billy Russell, and was forced to tap out after Russell nearly tore his leg off his body with a knee

Ant-Man quickly shut him up, however, as the ball of muscle flung himself at Velasquez and battered the crafty Velasquez with hard strikes and some impressive slams. Velasquez soon took over, but Ant-Man kept himself in the fight the entire time. When Jesus Chavez made his way to the ring and distracted the ref, however, Ant-Man was unable to protect himself from what came next. Velasquez swung his leg and punted Ant-Man between the legs, and hit a Street Cutter to steal the win and advance to round 2.</div></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div></div></div></div><div style="text-align:center;"><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><strong>Velasquez wins, 51.</strong></div></div></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><p></p></div></blockquote><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div></div></div></div><blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="47230" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div><div style="text-align:center;"><p><img alt="U0Z8bv8.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/U0Z8bv8.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><strong>vs</strong></div></div></div></div></div></div><img alt="At4d186.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/At4d186.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><strong> Jackpot Jordan vs Brandon Smith</strong></div></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><p></p><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> Jordan looked confident as he swaggered down to the ring, but Smith quickly erased that confident feeling as he nearly decapitated Jordan with a brutal lariat to open the bout.

At one point, Jake Idol came sprinting down the ramp to interfere, but Smith cut him off and met him halfway to the ring with a lariat followed by a backdrop driver on the ramp.

He almost put Youngman away with them too, but when he flew too close to the sun and missed his trademark LAX Departure, Youngman took the opportunity to drag him up and drill him with a piledriver for the win.</div></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div></div></div></div><div style="text-align:center;"><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><strong>Youngman wins, 48.</strong></div></div></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><p></p><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> While CLM was getting his neck checked on, Youngman grabbed a microphone.</div></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> EY: They call me The Hitman for a reason.

To his credit, he succeeded, dictating the pace of the match with stiff strikes and a few punishing suplexes. Cougar was able to stick around though, never letting himself take too much damage, and finished the bout with a springboard Cougar Pounce for the pin.</div></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div

When they got back in the ring, though, Apollo was able to catch him with an Island Driver and steal the win.</div></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div></div></div></div><div style="text-align:center;"><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><strong>Apollo wins, 47.</strong></div></div></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div></div></div></div><p><img alt="QVMKbOW.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/QVMKbOW.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p><div style="text-align:center;"></div><p></p><p></p><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> Before Apollo could even raise his hand in victory, though, Sayeed Ali jumped the guard rail, slid into the ring, and decked Apollo from behind with a steel chain he had wrapped around his fist.

Growing up together and training alongside one another has its advantages and disadvantages, and Callum was only experiencing the latter here. Time and time again he failed to put Wayne away, and he became increasingly frustrated. Eventually, he introduced a chair into the ring, but the ref immediately stepped in to take the foreign object away from him. With the ref’s back turned, Callum swung his foot forward, hitting a perfect field goal-style kick to Wayne’s nether regions. He followed up with a Honey Trap, and scored the submission when Wayne could no longer hold on.</div></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div></div></div></div><div style="text-align:center;"><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><strong>Callum wins, 61.</strong></div></div></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><p></p></div></blockquote><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div></div></div></div><blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="47230" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div><p><img alt="QndhO5P.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/QndhO5P.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="AoVUE4O.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/AoVUE4O.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><img alt="D6mWFJK.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/D6mWFJK.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p><div style="text-align:center;"></div><p></p><p></p><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> George Wolfe stormed through the backstage area after his loss.

Keenan’s background as an amateur wrestler combined with his time spent competing with tough-as-nails brawlers proved to be a potent combination. Cage struggled to get much of anything going. Every time Cage created some space, he ran to the corner and worked to untie the turnbuckle pad, until he had managed to get two untied. Fed up but unwilling to call for a DQ, the ref started to tie one of the pads back on. That’s when Cage struck with an eye poke and followed that up by slamming Keenan’s head into the second exposed buckle. Keenan was loopy, but Cage didn’t go for the pin. Instead, he stalked Keenan on the ground, and locked in Keenan’s own trademark ankle lock. Keenan tried to hold on, but the pain was too much, and he tapped out.</div></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div

That’s what this match was from start to finish. Perez and Ota clashed many times in CZCW, and each of those past encounters painted how this one played out.

Kirk was right back on him, though, and the two traded shots until Ali, out of desperation, blasted Kirk with a headbutt. The attack left even Ali loopy, but not so much that he forgot about his chain. Ali snatched it up and wrapped it around his fist before mounting Kirk and hitting him three times with the weapon. Finally, he got to his feet and let out a guttural roar as he stood over both Frankie Perez and Kirk Jameson.</div></div></div></div></div></div></div></blockquote><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div></div></div></div><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><strong>Total: 66 </strong></div></div></div></div></div></div></div><p></p>

Thanks for the DOTM votes, ya'll! This is my first time getting recognized for a diary here, and it's got me feeling pretty stoked.

 

Back on TEW 2010 I had a long running diary called The Johnny Heizenger Story, give it a read too! All the images have been photobucket'd, but there's just under four in-game years worth of shows to read here if you want to give it a shot:

Friday Week 4, June 2016

In front of 833 fans in the Mid Atlantic

Announcers: Marvin Earnest –Ernest Forthdyke-Hume

Bradford Peverell started the show off as he paced around the locker room. His left arm was in a sling, still damaged from the submission Al Coleman locked it months earlier. Finally, Peverell stopped pacing and faced the camera.

 

BP: Eleven years. That’s how long it took me to get here. Eleven years of grinding away, just so some weasel could try and take everything away from me. My arm isn’t 100%. Hell, I don’t know if 50%. Could be 10% for all I know. Fact of the matter is that doesn’t mean a thing. I’m a wrestler. I fight. Healthy or not, it doesn’t matter. I do what I have to. Al Coleman thought he was gonna take me out and have an easy trip to the next round. Well I got news for him.

 

Peverell ripped the sling off, and pointed at the camera with his bad arm.

 

BP: You poked the bear, Al. Pulled the lion’s tail. You might have hurt me, but you didn’t put me down. Tonight I’m gonna touch you up. You’ve got no where to run, no where to hide, and my left hook will find that glass jaw of yours.

 

Peverell kissed his fist, and then shoved the camera away.

Tigre Salvaje vs Harry Allen

 

Allen is a multi-time cruiserweight champ, but he never faced a competitor wit the sort of speed that Tigre displayed here. The luchador ran circles around Allen, who found it to be an unfamiliar position. Allen was able to ground Tigre, though, employing a variety of holds to wear away at the luchador.

 

Tigre would not be restrained, however, and he fought back with a lot of heart. He made a fatal mistake when he hoisted Allen up onto the top rope, though. Tigre climbed up after him and attempted a top rope hurricanrana, but the veteran Allen wisely held onto the ropes, and Tigre plummeted to the mat in a wild backflip. With Tigre stunned, Allen leapt from the top and nailed A Fistful of Dynamite to score the 1-2-3.

 

Allen wins, 48.

 

 

TUHxVpX.jpglpeV6be.jpg

 

Backstage, Harry Allen headed to the Young Gun locker room when Frantic Ali cut him off.

 

FA: Slow down there, cowboy!

 

HA: The hell do you want?

 

Allen was worn out, and clearly hoping to cool down. Ali held his hands up, palms out, to him.

 

FA: I just wanted say congratulations, cowboy. You looked good out there. It’s just a shame, you know?

 

HA: A shame?

 

FA: Well, you know. That I’m gonna end your buddy’s tournament early tonight.

 

HA: Oh is that so?

 

Ali grinned.

 

FA: You best believe it, cowpoke.

 

HA: I think Ford might have something to say about that. He’ll see you in the ring.

 

Allen began to walk off, but turned around before he did.

 

HA: Well hell, I forgot.

 

FA: Forgot what?

 

HA: To tell you to protect your neck, ‘cause Ford’s gonna kick it ten rows deep.

Findlay vs Billy Russell

 

The MMA legend Billy Russell did exactly what everyone expected him to do against the brutish Findlay. Findlay came in much taller and heavier than Russell, and Russell did everything in his power to negate that size advantage with an array of submission attacks that targeted the lower of Findlay. Every time Findlay got rolling, Russell went low and chopped him down. Eventually, Findlay fought back and nailed an Atomic Spinebuster, but by the time he made the cover, Russell was able to kick out. The two went right back at it, and it was Findlay that came out on top when he fought out of cloverleaf and hit Russell with a Georgia Stampede for the 1-2-3. Findlay limped to the back, but he took the time to turn around and nod to a recovering Russell before he disappeared backstage.

 

Findlay wins, 57.

Ford Gumble vs Frantic Ali

 

The story of the match was Gumble looking for the Quick Draw Kick at every opportunity. Ali,for his part, did everything in his power to avoid it. As much as Ford was throwing the kick, though, it was bound to land at some point, and Ford hit Ali with a thunderous one at around the ten minute mark. Unfortunately, Ali rolled under the bottom rope and to the floor before Ford could secure the pin, and the match continued.

 

Ford followed him to the floor and stalked Ali. Ali pulled himself up using the apron for an assist, and when he finally got to his feet Ford threw another Quick Draw Kick. Ali was expecting it, though, and ducked, leaving the ring post as the only target for Ford to hit. Ford collapsed, clutching his leg, and Ali rolled him into the ring, where he hit a death valley driver for the win.

 

Ali wins, 55.

 

 

VPXdTAs.jpgEMcRQjo.jpgxtx73SK.jpg

The Boys from the Yukon were backstage to greet Ford as he limped through the curtain. Mort chuckled.

 

HMM: Little man don’t look so good.

 

WW: I don’t know, he looks about like I expect: a loser.

 

Mort laughed. Ford growled and stuck a finger in his chest.

 

FG: I already kicked his ass—

 

Ford jutted the finger toward Whitaker.

 

FG: --now I wanna kick yours.

 

HMM: You want it, little man, you got it.

 

Ford growled one last time, then power walked away, gritting through the pain in his leg.

Greg Gauge vs Connor Threepwood for the MAW Championship

 

Normally it would take more than one win in the promotion to earn a shot at the MAW Championship, but Gauge’s decision to put the belt on the line in every match provided Threepwood with a golden opportunity, and he certainly took advantage of it. Threepwood, a disciple of the independent legend Acid, struck early and he struck often, making sure the champ was never in a comfortable position, even when he was in control.

 

Threepwood threatened to end the match with a stretch plum submission at one point, but Gauge was able to grit it out and get to the ropes and force a break. That’s when Threepwood lost control. He thought he had won, and protested to the ref. This allowed Gauge some recovery time, and when Threepwood turned back to Greg the champ leveled him with a brainbuster and transitioned straight into a Proton Lock. Threepwood tried to hold on, but eventually it proved too much and he tapped, giving the champ the win.

 

Gauge retains, 62.

As Gauge walked up the ramp, holding his belt, Bulldozer Brandon Smith emerged from the crowd and leapt the barrier. Dozer slid into the ring, leveled Threepwood with a lariat, and picked him back up before drilling him with a backdrop driver.

 

Gauge rushed to the ring looked on, confused, as Dozer left without a ring. Smith hopped the barrier once more, and waded through the crowd as medical crew hurried to the ring to assist Threepwood.

Donnie J strolled backstage, bopping his head to the music blasting through his earbuds, when he passed Jake Idol and Jackpot Jordan getting salads. Shocked, Donnie removed his earbuds.

 

DJ: Woah! What are you two “bros” doing here!?

 

Idol put a hand on Jordan’s chest, keeping him from lunging at Donnie.

 

JI: Chill bro, it’s not worth it.

 

JJ: Just let me at ‘em, bro!

 

Donnie chuckled.

 

DJ: I thought they only let winners in here? The way you two were talking in the last round, you made it sound like you were the uncrowned champs.

 

JJ: Oh, we’re still the uncrowned champs, my guy.

 

JI: It’s just going to take a little longer than expected, bro.

 

Donnie laughed.

 

DJ: Well, keep it up you two. And while you’re here, make a sandwich for me? Turkey on rye. It’s kind of my victory ritual.

 

Donnie winced.

 

DJ: Oh! Sorry! You two don’t know what a victory ritual is.

 

Donnie slapped Jordan’s shoulder and walked past them.

 

DJ: I’ll be more considerate in the future, but I got a match now. See you “bros” later.

Fox Mask vs Acid II

Acid clearly did a little bit of insider trading before this one started, as his mentor, the original Acid, has tangled with Fox Mask more times than they can probably count. The result was Acid being fully prepared for every bit of offense Fox Mask threw his way. Preparation isn’t everything, however, as Fox Mask did a bit of improv and played possum when Acid climbed to the top for his Acid Rain Bomb. As soon as Acid was set, Fox sprang to his feet, scampered up to the top, and drilled Acid to the mat with a top rope DDT sans middle finger to score the victory.

 

Fox Mask wins, 48.

Donnie J vs Rudy Velasquez

 

Velasquez was particularly angry and violent in this match, but Donnie J kept in the fight and made sure that he got his shots in as well. The finish came when The Rich and Famous appeared on the rampway, distracting Donnie. Donnie jawed at them for a moment, and when he turned back to his opponent Velasquez launched a field goal style kick at Donnie’s nether regions. Luckily, Donnie jumped back just in time, and countered by charging Velasquez with a twisting roll up to score the pin!

 

Donnie J wins, 59.

 

1o6m7js.jpg68EkL0M.jpg

 

Jesus Chavez and Hector Galindo immediately burst out of the crowd and joined Velasquez in beating down Donnie. Apparently Rudy was unhappy with the match results. The absolutely battered Donnie, and The Rich and Famous pointed and laughed at the unfortunate incident from the safety of the ramp.

 

 

 

FMr6JkW.jpglpeV6be.jpg

 

Before his match, Grandmaster Phunk was hyping himself up when Frantic Ali strolled up.

 

GP: Good Brother Ali! What ya say, my man?

 

Ali looked Phunk up and down and sneered.

 

FA: I ain’t got a damn thing to say to a clown like you.

 

Phunk laughed.

 

GP: You better watch it with that energy before you get popped. I saw you playing with fire in that cowboy earlier.

 

FA: I ain’t scared of no cowboy, and I sure as hell ain’t scared of a joke like you. You call me a good brother, but the truth is I’m a bad man. Think about when you talk about my energy.

 

Any semblance of a smile left Phunk’s face.

 

GP: Boy you keep talking to me without respect and I’ll get phunky all over your damn face.

 

The two stared at each for a moment, tense, before Ali backed up and held up his hands.

 

FA: Relax. I didn’t come here for you. My work for the night’s already done. Now, I’d wish you good luck, but... I don’t really want to.

 

GP: You don’t need luck when you’re as phunky as me. Now, I would say I’ll see you soon, but I have a feeling your tournament’s going to be over before I get the chance.

 

Phunk turned and walked through the curtain, leaving Ali to stew alone.

 

FA: We’ll see. We’ll see.

Grandmaster Phunk vs Bulldozer Brandon Smith

 

Smith tore into Phunk as soon as the bell rang, but Phunk was ready. People often look past him because of his fun-loving ways, but Phunk proved here that he was a fighter ready to hang with the best of them. For every shot Smith landed, Phunk responded in kind, and had Smith on the ropes multiple times. The master of phunk was ready to put Smith away at one point as he stalked his opponent, aiming for a Phunkensteiner. Smith was ready, though, and countered the rana with a thunderous powerbomb. He didn’t go for the pin, though, instead opting to throw the dazed Phunk into the turnbuckles, where he nailed him with a series of devastating lariats. Dazed, Phunk stumbled forward and into the arms of Smith, who nailed him with a backdrop driver for the win.

 

Smith wins, 59.

Smith wasn’t done. He hefted Phunk to his feet, but before he could act Greg Gauge’s music hit and the champ strode out onto the stage.

 

GG: This ends here, Smith.

 

Smith let Phunk drop to the ground.

 

GG: I don’t have the time or the patience for another Sayeed Ali to be running around. You got my attention, you won. But I got news for you. This belt isn’t yours. Findlay took it off your waist six years ago on the same night he took your mask. The belt. Is. Mine. You have zero claim. You want it? You take it the right way. Win the tournament. Excluding that, you can sit your ass on the sidelines, just like you did in college.

 

A gasp rippled through the crowd. Smith clearly wasn’t a fan of that last line.

 

GG: I’m warning you here and now. Next time you decide to jump someone or get in some extracurriculars, I will be there to put you down.

 

Smith snatched a mic from ringside. He looked furious, but after a moment he let a sneer cross his face.

 

BS: You got it.

 

He looked down at the prone form of Phunk.

 

BS: …Champ.

Bradford Peverell vs Al Coleman

 

Peverell came into the main event clearly compromised, but that didn’t stop from doing everything in his power to lay a beating on Coleman. Coleman, for his part, attacked the left arm of Peverell with the typical you’d expect of him. He never let the brawler build up the steam he needed to put a dent in Coleman’s armor.

 

Coleman kept Peverell grounded, but that success began to affect his ego, and the technician grew cocky, playing with his opponent. He began letting Peverell pepper him with a right jab, confident that it couldn’t damage him. But when Coleman jutted his chin out and pointed to it, daring Peverell to strike, Bradford let loose with his left hand, landing a Nuclear Left flush on Al’s jaw.

 

Coleman dropped, but Bradford did too, clutching his arm. The strike took a lot out of him, and he crawled to make the cover. 1..2…Coleman kicked out! Peverell took long! Before Peverell could capitalize with more offense, though, Coleman snatched his arm, pulled guard, and locked in a kimura! Bradford held on momentarily, but he was forced to tap before his arm snapped!

 

Coleman wins, 63.

Island Boy Apollo vs Roger Cage

 

Apollo was one of the victims of Sayeed Ali, taking a vicious beatdown after his defeat of George Wolfe. Cage was the last man seen with Ali, so there’s got to be something there. Apollo would be crazy to not connect the dots there!

Kirk Jameson vs Sayeed Ali

 

Jameson also felt the wrath of Sayeed Ali, though he went looking for a fight with the madman. Which of these two elite competitors with an axe to grind will come out on top?

Frankie Perez vs Ernest Youngman

 

Perez has at times looked like a terminator. The only chink in his armor thus far has been caused by a sneak attack on the part of Sayeed Ali. Fortunately for Youngman, he’s also looked like a terminator, and has been taking his opponents with a brutal piledriver. He’ll look to drill Perez with it in his toughest test yet!

Masked Cougar vs Nelson Callum

 

Callum has gone on quite the run. He cheated to defeat Davis Wayne, but he toppled the returning legend Mario Heroic in an impressive showing. Cougar has done well, too, defeating tough opponents in Frankie Dee and Jesus Chavez. Which of these two will come out on top?

 

 

Predictions

 

Island Boy Apollo vs Roger Cage

Kirk Jameson vs Sayeed Ali

Frankie Perez vs Ernest Youngman

Masked Cougar vs Nelson Callum

 

Additional showcase matches:

 

Davis Wayne, Max Mayhem, and Ace Youngblood vs Syd Collier, Jamie Atherton, and Ray Snow

Amazing Fire Fly vs Kip Keenan vs Cali Slick vs Fumihiro Ota

Mario Heroic vs Frankie Dee

California Love Machine vs Dean Waldorf

Stan Manna & Ryan Turner vs George Wolfe & Air Attack Weasel

 

Just got back into town today. All the happenings in the world delayed me a little more than usual, but I've got the next two shows booked and started the writing for them!

The result was Jay Fair taking a nasty lariat for Cage. With the ref down, Cage attempted a punt-style low blow, but a furious Apollo caught the kick. Hopping on one foot, Cage lunged forward and gouged and raked Apollo’s eyes. Now blinded, Apollo was an easy victim, and Cage dropped him with his Cage Rage DDT, just in time for Jay Fair to recover and make an agonizingly slow three count.</div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div></div><div style="text-align:center;"><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><strong>Cage wins, 57.</strong></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><p></p></div></blockquote><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div></div><blockquote data-ipsquote="" class="ipsQuote" data-ipsquote-contentapp="forums" data-ipsquote-contenttype="forums" data-ipsquote-contentid="47230" data-ipsquote-contentclass="forums_Topic"><div><p><img alt="OFTe1fV.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/OFTe1fV.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p><div style="text-align:center;"></div><p></p><p></p><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> Nelson Callum was out for his match next, and he also held a microphone. </div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> NC: I guess pre-match promos are gonna be the thing tonight.

He had Callum down, but when he went for his trademark springboard Cougar Pounce, Callum got his knees up and blocked the splash. As Cougar bounced off in pain, Callum snared him in his Honey Trap submission and scored the tap out win.</div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div></div><div style="text-align:center;"><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><strong>Callum wins, 66.</strong></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div></div><img alt="AoXTUR3.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/AoXTUR3.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /><p></p><p></p><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> Callum got to the back, toweling sweat from his face and grinning like hyena, when Davis Wayne stepped in his way.</div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> DW: Nice win.

He hit Sayeed with his Bullseye finisher, then immediately transitioned into his Kirk-Hold leg lock submission. Sayeed never tapped, but when he became unresponsive due to the pain, the ref called the match, and awarded the win to Kirk Jameson in what might be MAW’s best match yet.</div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div></div><div style="text-align:center;"><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><strong>Kirk wins, 71.</strong></div></div></div></div></div><p></p><p></p></div></blockquote><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div></div><p></p><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"> </div></div></div></div><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><div style="margin-left:25px;"><strong>Total: 69</strong></div></div></div></div></div><p></p>
