West Virginia Pro Wrestling: Appalachian Fun


Recommended Posts

Welcome one and all, to the collected adventures of West Virginia Pro Wrestling.

This is a dynasty I've been running on the Unofficial GDS discord for a week or two, and I have had a whole lot of fun doing it.

I've done 11 shows there so far, and my plan is to port those all here to this thread, formatted as nicely as my inexperienced self can manage, before continuing posting the save both here and there.

This is a real world dynasty, using a custom promotion, starting in June 2020.

(shoutout to cooldude for the sick logo)

 

The premise is as follows.

A random man in the backwoods of West Virginia has found himself in possession of $100,000 and a mind that led him to one thing: a wrestling promotion.

 

All that follows is the story of WVPW and those who work within it, forging a name in the industry for a state so often forgotten.

 

All shows I post here, up to WVPW: Fire Mountain, are old posts, and the first new, live show will be the 12th one, WVPW: Nitro Explosion, for which I will post a match card for all who wish to predict.

 

I hope you all enjoy!

Parker, the founder and owner of WVPW, addresses the crowd to welcome them to the very first show.

"Welcome, everyone! We're so glad to have you all here with us, as we have an absolute pleasure of a show for you tonight! And it's all because of this."

He unveils the West Virginia Heavyweight championship, and places it on a pedistal where the grand prize of the night can be viewed throughout the show.

Heath Slater defeats Tex Ferguson

The West Virginia Heavyweight championship is on the line! Hometown boy Heath Slater vs the brutal Tex Ferguson. Ferguson comes out strong, inflicting massive damage on the already tired Slater. Slater takes some brutal series of strikes after some back and forth grappling, but fights his way out of the corner, knocking Tex off his feet. The crowd is absolutely buzzing, as Slater hits a massive Smash Hit DDT for the pinfall! Heath Slater is the inaugural West Virginia Heavyweight Champion!

WVPW: Melee in the Mines

Held in West Virginia, Sunday, Week 2 July 2020

In front of 96 people

 

u9gwnmW.jpgbnZxBVi.jpgcWPqrwA.jpg

Heath Slater opens the show, title in hand. He thanks the crowd for all the support over his long career, claiming this city was his favorite to stop in on the WWE house show circuit. He says the West Virginia Heavyweight championship is his proudest accomplishment, and that he will defend it with all his heart. He cracks open a couple bottles of ice cold beer and celebrates with the front row fans, signing autographs.

Out of nowhere, a heated Tex Ferguson jumps the barricade, smashes a couple bottles over Heath's head, and grabs the mic

"I'm the true king of the independent scene in these mountains, dumb sh*t"

"You ain't nothing but a big money wannabe walking round like he owns the damn place"

"Well I'll tell ya this, Heath "Slater" (if that is your real name), I'm going to beat the hell out of Caleb Konley tonight, then next month at Backwoods Brawl? Your title is MINE"

Tex takes the rest of the pack of beer and heads to the back, leaving Heath a bloody mess at ringside

Erick Rowan is disgusted by ZZ Loupe, his arrogance and positive attitude only enfuriate him. The beatdown continues after the match, with Rowan locking in a submission hold and refusing to break it.

Just as ZZ is on the edge of unconsciousness, Trevor Murdock runs out from the back and hits Rowan with a huge clubbing blow to save ZZ

As Rowan backs off, ZZ and Trevor shake hands, and a friendship is formed.

KTB defeated Ricky Starks after interference by Jocephus

KTB came to ringside with new manager Jocephus. Jocephus, noted cult leader, seems to have KTB entirely under his spell. The match was a back and forth affair, with Ricky Starks on the verge of winning before Jocephus distracted the referee, allowing for a chair shot directly to the head of Starks.

After the match, KTB and Jocephus stand over the fallen Starks. A chant is performed by the two of them, before they throw him over the top rope with amazing strength and surprising ease.

Did these men legitimately call upon some otherworldly power to give them strength?

Curtis Axel comes to the ring before his scheduled match with Kahagas. He claims he is one of the top wrestlers of our time. Not only is he a former Royal Rumble winner, but he is technically the winner of the West Virginia Heavyweight title tournament, as he only lost by count-out, which everyone knows is not a REAL loss. To prove his power, he is going to destroy the former NWA World's Heavyweight Champion, Kahagas.

WVPW: Backwoods Brawl

Held in West Virginia, Sunday, Week 2 August 2020

In front of 110 people

 

u9gwnmW.jpgbnZxBVi.jpgZn4rIqL.jpg

Heath Slater is in the ring with a guitar. The one man band is tuning up, getting ready to sing a song about his opponent tonight, Tex Ferguson. Right as he starts the first line, Tex rushes the ring, hitting Heath with a flurry of punches and kicks. Out of nowhere, Rhino comes to Heath's aid, grabbing the guitar and smashing it over Tex's head. Tex rolls out of the ring, and grabs a microphone.

"I ain't stepping in no ring with you until that ANIMAL is out of this building!

Heath and Rhino laugh him out of the tiny local gymnasium, celebrating his beating as he walks out with the remains of the guitar still around his neck.

Rowan isn't finished with ZZ Loupe, his opponent from last month, however. He screams into the microphone that he wants to punish ZZ, and that Trevor isn't here to save him tonight. ZZ reluctantly appears at the entrance ramp holding a leash of some kind. "Come get me." he claims with a smile on his face.

As soon as Rowan rushes towards him, it is revealed ZZ was holding the reigns to a live aligator, which is defending him!

Rowan struggles with the gator, wrestling it back as ZZ makes his escape

WVPW: Riverside Rush

Held in West Virginia, Sunday, Week 2 October 2020

In front of 147 people

 

CxPbVES.jpgUQc1qlj.jpgCbR0J1V.jpgBrljjwO.jpg

Jocephus, KTB, and Erick Rowan enter the ring, surrounded by hooded followers. They have an anonymous sacrifice in hand, looking to use him for their power ritual before they all see action tonight. Just as Jocephus kneels to accept the sacrifice, one of the hooded men jumps into action, it's Ricky Starks! He bashes KTB and Jocephus from behind, clearing out the ring for his match with Rowan.

Curtis Axel defeats Kahagas in a last man standing match

We're in an outdoor setting tonight, riverside. These men make use of all the space around them during this match, in incredible fashion. Axel throws Kahagas into trees, Kahagas bashes Axel's head with a rock. These men have been through battles against each other before, but nothing like this. Axel tosses Kahagas into a boat with a brutal powerslam from the shore. He pulls up the anchor, lays it on Kahagas's chest, and fires up the engine. The boat drifts away, and after 10 seconds, Axel is declared the winner.

The Solution defeat The Bayou Boys

Trevor Murdock, the mountain of a man, goes to work hard against both opponents in the opening minutes. He then tags in ZZ, who has clearly learned a thing or two from his mentor. ZZ gets some strong offense, however clearly is still technically inferior to his opponents, who get the better of him.

"One more match!"

ZZ claims as the Solution trail away satisfied with their win.

"One more match next month! 3v3! We'll end it all!"

"My hot asian wife is ruined, disfigured!"

Parker arrives from backstage.

"Karl! Calm down, we'll get her medical attention, and you'll get your chance for revenge on Heath next month, at Mountaineer Mania!"

Karl eyes the championship, gives Heath one last kick, and walks away.

Erick Rowan defeats Austin Gunn to advance to the Blueridge Championship semifinals

Tonight's show starts out hot with the first match of the Blueridge Championship tournament. Rowan walks to the ring with a small cage, covered in cloth. Whatever could be in there? During the match, Austin Gunn is thrown to the outside. As he is recovering, he lifts up the cloth to take a peek at the creature. He is terrified, and runs away, right back into the ring where Rowan is waiting with a big boot for the win.

Chance Prophet and KTB defeat Old School Express, The Batiri, and Dawson Brothers to become #1 contenders for the West Virginia Tag Team Championships

KTB, fresh out of his cult membership, is a raging bull. His tag team partner/handler of choice, Chance Prophet, is a veteran, capable of keeping his cool and holding back KTB's energy for when the time is right. The newly formed duo of the man-beast and his goth handler take advantage of the no-DQ format to bash Old School Express's Marion Fontaine through a table to earn the pinfall.

Rating: 32

Royce Isaacs defeats Kahagas to advance to the Blueridge Championship semifinals

Kahagas, a respectable competitor, and decorated veteran, has his opportunity at WVPW gold squashed, when Mad Braddox distracts the referee so that Isaacs can bash him over the head with a "gold" bar, securing the victory.

Our WVPW sources say this bar is merely a block of wood painted gold. More info as it comes.

Trevor Murdock defeats Jocephus to advance to the Blueridge Championship semifinals

In an absolute slugfest, Trevor Murdock comes out on top over the former cult leader. As Trevor celebrates with ZZ Loupe, Jocephus remains in the ring, seeming hopeless. His cult is gone, he has lost his championship opportunity, and he feels powerless. Change is seemingly on the way in the life of Jocephus.

Karl Anderson and Tex Ferguson defeat Heath Slater and Curtis Axel

Axel and Slater put on an equal fight against Anderson and Ferguson, up until the moment Axel showed his true colors. Slater was being double teamed by Karl and Tex, crawling Axel's way for the hot tag after hitting a desperation dropkick. Axel, holding his arm out, reaching desperately for the tag, withdrew his hand at the last second, and left the ring apron. Heath was left hanging, brutalized in the ring, as Karl hits a spinebuster for the win.

After the match, Karl and Tex have their time to gloat, celebrate, and drink, with Karl's disfigured asian wife.

Just as Heath climbs his way back to his feet using the ring ropes, Axel approaches him, microphone in hand.

"Heath - you and a lot of people may think we're the same"

"Underappreciated, underrated, misused by the powers that be"

"But there's a truth that I found within myself that everyone in this building, in this world, including you, have overlooked"

"I'm PERFECT, I'm the best damn wrestler in this company, best in this BUSINESS, I never lost the Royal Rumble! I never lost the West Virginia Championship Tournament!, hell, I never even lost this match. I earned my shot, I will have my respect, and I will have your title!"

Curtis Axel picks up the exhausted Heath Slater, and hits him with the Perfect-Plex, before posing with the West Virginia Championship

Curtis Axel is in the ring with the microphone ahead of his big title shot tonight.

"I will no longer be ignored. I'm the most overlooked wrestler in this business, and I will win this god damn title tonight, just to shove it in the face of all you hicks!"

"I'm Joe f**king Hennig, and I'm going to outperform, out grapple, out maneuver, and outsmart Heath Slater tonight, and there's not a damn thing anyone can do about it!"

From this moment forth, Curtis Axel is known as Joe Hennig in all official WVPW literature

Before the match, Christine Bui, Karl's hot asian wife, announces the following.

"I've had an official meeting with the greatest tag team in the world, Anderson and Ferguson. We've come to realize.... why chase singles titles? Tag team glory is where it's at. Von Erichs, be on alert, we're coming for you."

She drops the microphone from her still disfigured position in the wheelchair and is wheeled out of the ring, before an absolute demolition of Old School Express by Karl & Tex

Royce Isaacs defeats Trevor Murdock to advance to the Blueridge Championship final

Trevor has the upper hand for a majority of the match, throwing his weight around and firing a number of powerful blows. Mid-match, Mad Braddox, Royce's partner in Corporate Inc, comes out with his briefcase. He distracts the referee and Trevor by offering him a bribe to call the match for Royce. Royce takes this opportunity to roll up Trevor for the pin. Trevor is clearly furious.

Ricky Starks defeats Erick Rowan by count out to advance to the Blueridge Championship Final

Erick comes down to the ring once again with cage in hand. The match is very back and forth, until Starks is thrown to the outside, and a sly look comes across his face as an idea pops into his head. He crawls his way towards Rowan's caged creature, then grabs it, sprinting towards the entrance ramp. He throws the caged beast into the conveniently located garbage can, prompting Rowan to rush to it's aid. Starks makes his way back to the ring, avoiding the rage of Rowan, as Rowan, concerned with his creature, loses by count-out.

The Von Erichs defeat Chance Prophet and KTB to retain the West Virginia Tag Team Championships

In similar fashion to their #1 contenders match, KTB demolishes the Von Erichs, and Chance acts as the veteran presence to get him out of tough spots. KTB's rampage only gets them so far, however, as the Von Erichs persevere, knocking the big man off his feet, and hitting a double-team move for the win

Rating: 36

 

CbR0J1V.jpg

KTB, as he gets back to his feet, defeated, is outraged. His eyes are on the gold, and he rushes towards the titles, seemingly hoping to steal them by force, even though he lost the match. He attacks the referee and Von Erichs from behind as their hands and titles are raised in victory, and holds the titles up himself.

bnZxBVi.jpgKNRJHkl.jpgWzeDMol.jpg

When KTB stands tall, and all others in the ring, including Chance Prophet, lay on the ground, hurt and in fear, Karl, Tex, and Christine approach from the entrance ramp.

The trio stands (and sits) before KTB after Christine's wheelchair is lifted into the ring, exchanging looks before KTB spits on the now-ugly face of Christine, prompting a beatdown from Karl & Tex

The duo poses with the titles for themselves, before throwing them into the faces of the still-down Von Erichs

Ricky Starks defeats Royce Isaacs to win the Blueridge Championship

An incredible back and forth affair between these men, a beautiful mix of striking, technical skills, and high-paced action, was nearly ruined when once again, Mad Braddox shows up, briefcase in hand. Before he could interfere in any way, Trevor Murdock and ZZ Loupe run at him, on opposite sides from each other, squishing him between their massive bodies upon impact, knocking him out cold. Ricky Starks takes advantage of the madness taking place outside of the ring, hitting a fisherman's suplex on the shocked Isaacs for the win.

Heath Slater defeats Joe Hennig to retain the West Virginia Heavyweight Championship

Joe Hennig came into this match incredibly prepared. Every maneuver his former friend Slater has, he had a suplex or lock to counter. Hennig seemed to be an entirely different person in the ring than he was on the microphone earlier tonight. Cold, calculated, and brutal in execution. Every move executed precisely, without fault. Slater had to dig deep into his arsenal to find moves to hit Hennig with. In the end, Heath had to take Joe to the top tope and hit a massive DDT to put him away. If this match has proven one thing, this new side of Joe Hennig is not one to be messed with.

Rating: 47

 

CGogyyd.jpgu9gwnmW.jpg

Heath, exhausted, celebrates his victory and the retention of his title. He made a mistake, however, when he took his eyes off of Joe. Joe instantly runs up behind Heath, hitting him with the Perfect-Plex, and going seemingly insane in the process. He couldn't grasp the fact that he'd lost a match, that was entirely impossible. His entire body writhing with shame, anger, and confusion, Joe crawls under the ring, grabbing a ladder. He tosses it into the ring, still visibly shaken from his loss.

He takes the ladder into his hands, and bashes Heath with it multiple times, busting him open almost instantly. Heath tries to crawl away as Joe puts down the ladder, but Joe grabs him by his beautiful hair, picks him up, and tosses him down onto the cold steel rungs. Security and medical staff rush the ring, tending to the champion and keeping the deranged challenger at bay.

"THIS ISN'T OVER" Joe shouts as he's pulled away

As Austin Aries, Heath's opponent, enters the arena, KTB rushes in from behind, destroying him. As ever, KTB's eyes are squarely on the gold, and he will do anything to achieve it. Medical personnel check on Aries, who had been hit into the cold concrete floor, and metal barricades multiple times. He had been declared unfit to compete. Slater is fuming, incredibly angry that this beast messed up his match for the night. He motions for KTB to come fight him himself, and the match begins.

Heath Slater defeats KTB to retain the West Virginia Heavyweight Championship

Slater outsmarts KTB, using his blind rage against him. Many times he dodges a tackle, sending KTB barreling into the turnbuckles. The final straw comes when KTB, in a rage, grabs a table, sets it up in the ring corner, only to be sent through it himself. The referee is lenient, and allows the foreign object, in the interests of having a true winner in this title match. Slater pins him, 1,2,3 for the win

Ricky Starks starts us off in the ring, microphone in hand, and Blueridge title around his waist. He claims he has it all. The looks, the charisma, the pure, raw ability, to be a star in this business.

"When Ricky Starks enters this ring, everybody takes notice. The ladies swoon, the guys get jealous, and the boys in the back? They get scared."

CbR0J1V.jpg

One man who is certainly not scared of anything, KTB, comes out from the back. He's as mad as ever, with his eyes on the gold. This man has a strange obsession with the color, or something. Ricky Starks, backs down, rolling out of the ring to avoid KTB's rage, and the match is set.

Joe Hennig defeats Erick Rowan

Rowan once again comes to the ring with his cage in hand. Joe Hennig, the absolute maniac he is, runs out to meet Rowan, not having any time for this foolish cage nonsense. He knocks Rowan off his feet, grabs the cage, and removes the cover.

9p8QA0z.jpg

It's a.... RACCOON??? "What the hell, Erick Rowan?" The crowd lets out a collective sigh, realizing the ridiculousness of it all. Hennig sets the Raccoon free. It instantly runs to the nearest trash can to feast.

Rowan gets up, angry as he's ever been. His anger gets the best of him during the match, as the clinical Hennig wipes the floor with him.

After the match, Rowan takes the trash can holding his beloved raccoon to the back with him.

Corporate Inc come to the front row from the entrance to the local gymnasium, claiming although they weren't in action tonight, they bought front row tickets to see the beatdown the Bayou Boys were about to take. The front row tickets were very expensive, they claim. The man sitting next to them reminds them the show has free tickets.

The Bayou Boys defeat The Dawson Brothers

ZZ Loupe is singled out for most of the match, getting stuck in the Dawson's corner a number of times. When Trevor comes in with the hot tag, the Dawsons are powerless to stop the fresh big man.

The Von Erichs defeat The Butcher & The Blade to retain the West Virginia Tag Team Championships

The Von Erichs take the ring, once again spouting their challenge. They want anyone who considers themselves the "best tag team in the world" to come prove it by taking their titles.

The Butcher and The Blade arrive, wasting no time getting to the ring and getting in the Von Erich's faces.

In a hard fought match, the Von Erichs come out on top. The Butcher and The Blade are mad at each other, each one blaming the other for the loss.

Heath Slater draws with Chad Gable via double DQ to retain the West Virginia Heavyweight Championship

Heath Slater shows off his rarely seen technical skills to go toe to toe with Chad Gable. Gable, with his Olympic background, gets the best of Slater in most exchanges. The only thing Slater holds over Gable is the passion of a hometown champion, the will to never give in. 20 long minutes are fought between the pair, before Joe Hennig comes out of the entrance tunnel.

"I've seen enough of this! Neither of you deserve this title!"

Hennig rushes in as both men are on the ground following a superplex by Slater. Hennig picks up Gable, throwing him onto Slater, causing a double DQ.

Rating: 53

 

CGogyyd.jpg

He proceeds to perform a number of suplexes on each man. Throwing them into the corners, onto the cold concrete floor, and into the metal barricades.

When he decides Gable and Slater are in enough pain and misery, he grabs the title. He holds it over his head in pride, and leaves the arena, title in hand.

Joe Hennig approaches the ring, stolen title around his waist, microphone in hand. </p><p>

"I've finally got my second chance to officially claim the title I so clearly deserve"</p><p>

"As the man entering the match in possession of the title, I should clearly be the one picking the stipulation"</p><p>

He grabs a ladder from under the ring, setting it up inside the ring. He climbs the rungs, placing the title high above the ring, suspended from the rafters.</p><p>

He poses arrogantly before making his way backstage to prepare, bringing his ladder with him</p><p>

After the match, Ferguson and Anderson grab a mic. They declare that they're tired of all the young, up and comers acting like they own the place.</p><p>

"People like Anthony Bennett, Austin Gunn, and Ricky Starks need to be put in their place, and learn some respect to us LEGENDS of this business"</p><p>

<strong>Ricky Starks</strong> defeats Karl Anderson <em>to retain the Blueridge Championship</em></p><p>

Anderson does as he said he would, putting Starks in his place. He outwrestles him in every way, making a title change almost inevitable.</p><p>

<img alt="iTpO9Cb.jpg" data-src="https://i.imgur.com/iTpO9Cb.jpg" src="<___base_url___>/applications/core/interface/js/spacer.png" /></p><p>

The show-off, bullying style Anderson had during this match was apparently too much for his last opponent, Austin Gunn, who was victim of the same treatment. Gunn rushes out, knocks Ferguson to the floor, and as the referee is distracted, hits a superkick right to Anderson's face, securing the win for Starks.</p><p>

Starks looks at Gunn with mixed emotion, he helped him win, but Starks is perfect in his own mind, and doesn't need the help from anyone. Gunn offers a handshake, but is turned down.</p><p>

<strong>The Bayou Boys</strong> defeat The Batiri</p><p>

Corporate Inc comes out during the Batiri's entrance, making some sketchy business deal with them, only to retreat backstage afterwards.</p><p>

The Bayou Boys win a rather standard match, only to be attacked by the Batiri afterwards. The Batiri instantly go under the ring for a pair of tables, set them on fire, and put the Bayou Boys through them.</p><p>

The ZZ Loupe fans in the audience are horrified</p><p>

<strong>Erick Rowan</strong> defeats Abdullah The Butcher</p><p>

Rowan comes to the ring, raccoon on his shoulder. His opponent is a mystery, even to him.</p><p>

Here comes Abdullah The Butcher! The referee announces this matchup is now a hardcore match!</p><p>

Rowan wastes no time using his brute force to attack the octogenarian, brutalizing him in the ring.</p><p>

Abdullah pulls out his signature fork to get in some offence of his own. Rowan is bleeding profusely now, and rolls out of the ring to collect himself. He instantly has an idea. He grabs his raccoon, and throws it onto Abdullah.</p><p>

The raccoon destroys the hardcore legend, leaving him lying. Rowan calls off the attack, and places his foot on Abdullah's chest for the 3 count.</p><p>

Joe Hennig defeats Heath Slater and Chad Gable <strong>to become West Virginia Heavyweight Champion</strong></p><p>

Hennig approaches the ring, ladder in hand. A man on a mission, he sets it up immediately, before the match even begins. </p><p>

The three way match is relatively even, each man getting significant offence, and taking significant blows. Hennig and Gable, both down as Slater climbs the ladder, share a look and know what must be done. Hennig grabs Slater off the ladder, powerbombs him into another ladder, and Gable applies a sleeper, until Slater is unconscious.</p><p>

With Slater out of the match, both men grab ladders, set them up, and begin climbing. Gable, quick on his feet, reaches the top first. There's only one problem. He's too short to reach the title.</p><p>

As soon as Hennig reaches the top and stops laughing, he kicks over Gable's ladder, sending Gable crashing down to the mat, and retrieves the title he hung earlier in the evening. </p><p>

Ladies and gentlemen, your NEW WEST VIRGINIA HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION, JOE HENNIG!</p><p>

Brand new West Virginia Heavyweight Champion, Joe Hennig, stands in the ring.</p><p>

"What did I tell you all?"</p><p>

"I'm the best damn wrestler this company has to offer."</p><p>

"The former Royal Rumble winner is now West Virginia Heavyweight Champion"</p><p>

"And there's not a damn thing little "Shorty G", or "One Man Bland" can do about it tonight! Because I'm going on a little vacation around the state I'm the champion of!"</p><p>

"While those two losers fight for the privilege to step in the ring against me, I'm going to be on tour around your pathetic state, trying to avoid all the greasy, fat excuses for "people" you call residents here"</p><p>

"Enjoy your "fun" tonight, because the champion is out"</p><p>

"Bring me my limo!"</p><p>

Hennig drops the mic, gets in his "limo", which is, interestingly enough, the Saab limousine as seen in an episode of Top Gear. Trashy, yet somehow impressive that the champion has had it come all this way just to pick him up.</p><p>

<strong>Erick Rowan</strong> defeats The Butcher</p><p>

Rowan comes to the ring, raccoon in hand. Butcher comes to the ring, butcher's knife in hand. It is very clear that the Butcher would like to slaughter this raccoon. Rowan is having none of this. The battle turns into a brawl for the rights to the raccoon, which Rowan's passion will always win out in.</p><p>

<strong>Karl & Tex</strong> defeat Ricky Starks & Austin Gunn</p><p>

The bigger, more experienced men have the advantage from the very start. It's the passion of the younger men wanting to prove their worth that gives them a fighting chance. Austin Gunn is isolated in the ring for a good 5 minutes, taking move after move from his opponents. He crawls, ever so slowly to Ricky Starks, who's hand is stretched as far as it will go. Gunn does not crawl fast enough, however. Tex comes in, hits Starks off the apron with a big boot, as Karl hits a piledriver to Gunn for the win.</p><p>

Ricky Starks is furious with Austin Gunn. He didn't like the man in the first place, but now he cost him a potential victory. Starks enters the ring, and props Austin in the corner. He takes the gold chain from around his neck, and wraps it around his hand. He proceeds to throw a barrage of punches at Gunn, until he is bleeding profusely from his head.</p><p>

The Bayou Boys defeat The Batiri <strong>in a tables match</strong></p><p>

This match was relatively even. The Bayou Boys had the clear size advantage. The Batiri had the clear speed and technical skill advantage. But this was an absolutely wild brawl of a match. The finish was perhaps the most incredible part of all. The Bayou Boys had the Batiri down, outside the ring. Trevor Murdock placed the pair of them onto a table, one on top of the other. ZZ Loupe climbed inside the ring, going to the top rope for perhaps the first time in his entire career. ZZ Loupe hits a frog splash onto the men, crashing through the table for the win.</p><p>

When the Bayou Boys catch their breath, they grab the mic.</p><p>

"How'd y'all like that new move I pulled out there tonight? I'm calling it the Toad Splash"</p><p>

The crowd loves it.</p><p>

Trevor takes the mic, and has a serious look on his face.</p><p>

"Now, down to business."</p><p>

"Corporate Inc, we fought off your hired thugs, now we're coming for you."</p><p>

"Corporate Inc vs The Bayou Boys, to end it all."</p><p>

<strong>The Von Erichs</strong> defeat Hawkins and Ryder</p><p>

Hawkins and Ryder are so excited to be here, and the crowd is happy to have them, in this face vs face matchup. Ryder has Marshall Von Erich down in the corner. Ryder heads to the opposite corner. The crowd knows what comes next. "Woo, Woo, Woo" Ryder sprints forward to plant a massive kick on Marshall's face. Ross Von Erich, out of nowhere, flattens Ryder with a monster of a lariat, both men going full speed before collision. Ryder is out cold. The Von Erichs pick up the win.</p><p>

<strong>Chad Gable</strong> defeats Heath Slater <em>to become #1 contender to the West Virginia Heavyweight Championship</em></p><p>

Both men are full of passion here tonight. Slater wants his belt back. Chad wants the opportunity at a rematch he deserves after being screwed so many times. The former olympian outclasses Slater in the ring in this hard fought bout, and earns his shot at the title after Slater is forced to tap.</p><p>
