Thanks, appreciate that you noticed that! I wanted to give Freddy a solid win to cement him in upper echelon of the card as my secondary face to Andrews. I think everything has fallen into place for Battleground very well, if I do say so myself.

Nice show with a surprise victory to close it out. Freddy is often an underutilised talent so good to see him in the spotlight here.

<strong>Shocking Matt Hocking</strong> opens up the show, strutting down the ramp as arrogantly as he possibly can with a wide smile on his face. He gets into the ring, taking off his sunglasses and looking around at the Utah crowd.</p><p> </p><p>

“A-oooooo!! The Shocking One is here to open the show!” he howls into the mic as the crowd boos him. “Yeah, yeah, yeah, Shocking Matt Hocking doesn’t care a lick about any of that noise, ya buncha Mormons… ‘scuse me, buncha morons!” he sneers as the booing continues. “Now cut the noise and watch in awe as The Hock takes care of The Buzzsaw just as quickly as he’s gonna take care of ol’ Bart Biggins tomorrow night. You see, it’s real simple… Hock Shock… 1.. 2.. 3!!!”</p><p> </p><p>

“This guy’s real full of himself,” Doakes observes.</p><p> </p><p>

“He’s full of something, alright, and I think the crowd can smell it,” Saunders retorts.</p><p> </p><p>

It’s not quite as simple as Hocking claimed it would be for him, but it’s a quick enough TV match that does indeed end with a Hock Shock followed by the 1, 2, 3 pinfall.</p><p> </p><p>

<strong>The Supremacy</strong> is out after the break for some promo time, showcasing all three before the six-man tag match.</p><p> </p><p>

“You know, I keep saying it so much, I might be wearing it out a little bit,” <strong>Austin Smooth</strong> begins. “But me, the J-Man, and DWN over here are supreme talents in the world of wrestling, and, in fact… the only Supremacy that matters.”</p><p> </p><p>

“That’s right, Smooth,” <strong>Davis Wayne Newton</strong> says as he takes the mic. “You see, the Triple Threat is the real deal, the show stealer, the hottest sensation to grace TCW audiences in ages, and you all know it!”</p><p> </p><p>

“And you all have me, and, of course, my trust fund, to thank for giving you the gift of The Supremacy!” <strong>Jeremie Courtney</strong> smiles. “The gift that keeps on giving, and the gift that’s about to unwrap an ass whooping on a trio of buffons who’d rather play to you morons than get it done and pick up the winner’s check.”</p><p> </p><p>

“What a spoiled brat,” Kyle Rhodes sneers as The Supremacy end their promo chock full of entitlement and arrogance.</p><p> </p><p>

“They better not take their opponents tonight lightly… Edd Stone is part of a legacy that speaks for itself, Benny Benson is a former singles champion, as well as holding tag team gold with Jimmy Foxx,” Doakes says while the faces are making their entrances.</p><p> </p><p>

This was a pretty standard TV match, the faces getting the crowd into it with all their signature spots while The Supremacy heel it up all over the match.

Wolf Hawkins is alone in The Syndicate’s VIP suite for a brief promo, very serious in tone.</p><p> </p><p>

“You guys think you pulled a fast one on us this past Tuesday?” he asks quietly. “Freddy Huggins, you <em>really</em>... think your tainted victory over me means a damn thing?” Hawkins takes a deep, deliberate breath before continuing. “Nothing, not a thing… means anything come tomorrow night… not The Syndicate’s two-to-one night onTuesday, not the two times I’ve pinned Aaron Andrews without having the TCW World Title to show for it, and <em>certainly[/] not Freddy Huggins pinning me after Chris Flynn messed things up on Tuesday. </em><em><em>NONE OF IT</em></em><em> means anything when we step into the Battleground tomorrow night. Tomorrow night, The Syndicate will reign down fire on Aaron Andrews, Dogs of War, and Freddy Huggins the likes of which no man can withstand! Come tomorrow night, Ace… you’ll realize your days as champion are numbered, and there won’t be enough left of you to stop me from taking back what’s mine at Total Mayhem!”</em></p><p><em> </em></p><p><em>

By virtue of his good showings in the ring and recent wins for his tag team, Darryl Devine was given this TCW Television Title match and he had another good showing here against the champion.

<hr></em></p><p><em>

Following the break, the duo of </em><em><strong>Jay Chord</strong></em><em> and </em><em><strong>Joshua Taylor</strong></em><em> are out to some very loud boos from the Salt Lake City crowd; Chord is white hot lately after his recent attacks on </em><em><strong>Ricky Dale Johnson</strong></em><em>, and Taylor is practically flawless on the year so far even with his open challenges.</em></p><p><em> </em></p><p><em>

“They expect me to come out here and talk up tonight’s main event,” Jay Chord says as he paces slowly around the ring with Joshua Taylor standing near the ropes. “They want me to be a puppet and dance for you all to their hand-picked tune, but it ain’t happening tonight, and it’s not happening anymore. The TCW Championship Committee thinks that I’ll stand idly by while Ricky Dale Johnson turns Total Championship Wrestling into his redneck funhouse rather than fulfilling my destiny of becoming TCW Champion and ruling over this company, continuing the legacy of my father… they’ve got another f*****g thing coming!”</em></p><p><em> </em></p><p><em>

“Oh my!” Jasmine Saunders gasps.</em></p><p><em> </em></p><p><em>

“I’m sure the Committee isn’t going to be happy with those FCC fines,” Doakes observes.</em></p><p><em> </em></p><p><em>

“Keeping the censors on their toes tonight,” Rhodes adds.</em></p><p><em> </em></p><p><em>

“No more nice guy Jay Chord… no more ‘future’ face of the company playing ball, patiently waiting for his time to come, because my time is </em><em><em>NOW</em></em><em>!!” Chord exclaims. “Tomorrow night at Battleground, I’m going to finish off Sammy Bach once and for all, and then come Tuesday night I </em><em><em>DEMAND</em></em><em> a one-on-one with Ricky Dale Johnson where I expect him to hand me a contract for a TCW World Title match at Where Angels Fear To Tread, or else me and the Straight Edge Superstar over here, Mr. Joshua Taylor… we’re going to make TCW a very, very unsafe place to be… do you understand me, Championship Committee? Understand me, ‘Committee Cowboy?’” he mocks. “Do you understand me, big toy conglomerate? Do you understand me, Doakes? Rhodes? Dollface, Jasmine, you understand?” he barks; as the announce team jaw back that they understand, the music of </em><em><strong>Sammy Bach</strong></em><em> kicks in and he makes his entrance to put a stop to Chord’s ranting.</em></p><p><em> </em></p><p><em>

There is certainly no love lost between these two teams as the friction between these men has been heavy all month long. There is plenty of storytelling on display here, too, with the first time Chord and Bach enter the ring together breaking out into a fiery brawl, Bach playing face-in-peril for most of the match until getting a hot tag on Tornado, as well as Taylor’s array of brutal submission holds. The finish sees Taylor lock in the near-unbreakable Butterfly Lock on Sammy Bach who fights against it for as long as anyone has before managing to shift and turn, still trapped in the hold but putting Taylor’s shoulders on the mat for a pinfall victory!</em></p><p><em> </em></p><p><em>

After a short pyrotechnic display, the music of The Committee Cowboy himself, <strong>Ricky Dale Johnson</strong>, hits and the crowd explodes with cheers; the audience obviously loves him. He’s still wearing a bandage on his forehead that is just visible beneath the cowboy hat, but he’s all smiles as he waves to the crowd and shakes some hands on his way to the ring.</p><p> </p><p>

“Ladies and gentlemen, thank you for comin’ out tonight, thank you for tunin’ in and buyin’ the pay-per-view, we have a helluva show for you tonight! You’re gonna see the first ever Battleground match, and it ain’t gonna be pretty, I can promise you that much!” The crowd cheers at this. “We had the coin toss earlier tonight, and I can tell you that… well, The Syndicate won and they’ll have the early advantage by sendin’ the third man into the ring.” The crowd jeers this announcement. “I know, I know, but fair’s fair and if they win… well, your Total Mayhem main event will be Wolf Hawkins challengin’ for the TCW World Championship.</p><p> </p><p>

“Now, another match I need to address for tonight,” RDJ continues, pausing for a moment as the crowd rumbles and cheers. “... is Jay Chord versus Sammy Bach. Now, Jay Chord had some words for me and the Championship Committee last night… well, not so much words as demands,” he says, tipping his cowboy hat back so his face is more easily visible to the camera. “So, lemme tell ya somethin’... you don’t make demands, boy.” The crowd cheers these words from the retired fist fightin’ Texan.</p><p> </p><p>

“I don’t make the rules, I’m just here to enforce ‘em… and one of the rules is that the inmates don’t run the asylum,” RDJ says. “But, that said, the TCW Championship Committee has heard what you have to say… and they’ll have an answer for you this Tuesday. I’ll be on hand to deliver it personally, but I do need you to know, Jay Chord… if you want anything, and I do mean anything, to happen in your favor on this one… ya gotta get through Sammy Bach first,” he says with a sly wink to the camera.</p><p> </p><p>

“What does that mean, Azaria?” Rhodes questions.</p><p> </p><p>

“Do you think the Committee Cowboy has collusion on his mind?” Azaria fires back.</p><p> </p><p>

“I don’t know, but I know Ricky Dale Johnson well enough to know that that wink meant something!” Rhodes tells us all.</p><p> </p><p>

“Like I said, folks, we got a great night a’ action planned, thanks for comin’ out, thanks for tunin’ in… I’ll see y’all on Tuesday!” he proclaims before his music begins to play him out and we cut to the announce team at their desk to finish hyping tonight’s show.</p><p> </p><p>

A competitive match between the young duo and the veteran team, faces shining in the beginning until Austin Smooth takes over on Flying Jimmy Foxx and the heels work him over for a bit. The ending sees Benny Benson narrowly avoid being put in the Smooth Hold, rolling through for a flash roll-up and the victory.</p><p> </p><p>

Immediately following the match, Davis Wayne Newton jumps Benny Benson and it isn't long before The Supremacy are putting a 3-on-2 beatdown on the winners of the match.</p><p> </p><p>

"The Supremacy not happy with being dealt their first loss here in TCW since debuting last month at The War to Settle the Score," Azaria observes as the trio of youngsters put the boots to Benson & Foxx.</p><p> </p><p>

<strong>Wolf Hawkins</strong> is sitting alone in The Syndicate’s VIP suite once again, leaned back on a couch and looking into the camera. He sits there quietly for a moment, arms crossed and just looking before he sniffs and sits up.</p><p> </p><p>

“Battleground… I don’t know if anyone’s said it yet, but a match like this can change the lives of the men involved,” he says somberly. “I don’t mean in that fun, figurative, ‘I get my title shot if we win’ sort way… I mean it can scar the men involved. Eight men, one cage, one way to win: survive. On one side, you have the TCW World Champion, Tag Team Champions… and Freddy Huggins,” he scoffs. “A makeshift team of four men who couldn’t give a damn about one another, and on the other… you have a brotherhood. You have four men who have an understanding of their business relationship together… four men who know what the greater good is,” Hawkins smiles.</p><p> </p><p>

“That’s four men who know what’s best for business… four men who know that <em>I</em> need to be TCW World Champion, and four men who see this match as a means to that end!! Aaron Andrews, ‘Ace’... you better pray. Pray long, and pray hard, because this is war. There’s nowhere to hide, the cage will keep you from running… are you really ready for this? Are you really ready to step into the Battleground??”</p><p> </p><p>

Wolf leans back again, letting out a sigh, and rubbing his chin quizzically.</p><p> </p><p>

“I don’t think you are,” he says as he crosses his arms again. “I really don’t think you are.”</p><p> </p><p>

<strong>Venus Angeletti</strong> is out next with her charge, <strong>”The Hitman” Ernest Youngman</strong>, for a pre-match promo.</p><p> </p><p>

“I know T-Bone Bright thinks he’s going to steamroll The Hitman, but we already proved once that that ain’t true,” the Jersey Princess swears as her head bobs around like it’s on a swivel. “We mighta kept our hands offa him for the last month like Mr. Committee Man said, but tonight, sweetheart… you don’t have a chance,” she laughs as Youngman stands by stoically, nodding in agreement.</p><p> </p><p>

</strong><strong><span style="font-size:8px;">VERSUS</span></strong></p><p><strong>

</strong><strong><span style="font-size:12px;">T-BONE BRIGHT</span></strong></p><p> </p><p>

T-Bone Bright didn’t wait for the bell after making his entrance, the announce team selling how these two have waited a month to get their hands on one another. After the bell, the two men spill outside and brawl all over the ringside area before heading back into the ring and brawling some more. It goes back-and-forth for some time until it looks like Youngman is going to pick up the win with The Hit, but before he can connect on the rebound, T-Bone levels with a T-Bone Lariat and gets the pinfall!</p><p> </p><p>

</p><div style="text-align:right;"><p><strong>WINNER:</strong> T-Bone Bright (11:20)</p><p>

<hr></p><p>

<strong>Greg Gauge</strong> is out next to issue his open challenge, but he barely gets a word out before he’s interrupted by the entrance of <strong>Troy Tornado</strong>.</p><p> </p><p>

“You know, I’m tired of all of this open challenge, better than you, future of wrestling crap!” Tornado seethes while pacing back-and-forth on the entrance stage. “I don’t care if it’s Greg Gauge, Joshua Taylor, Jay Chord, or whoever… you all strut around here acting like TCW is your own little playground, but I’m here tonight to remind you, Greg Gauge… that I am The Star Maker, and that TCW is <em>MY</em> stage! So I accept, let’s do this!”</p><p> </p><p>

Tornado throws down the microphone and heads to the ring with a purpose while Greg Gauge arrogantly waves him on into the ring.</p><p> </p><p>

</strong><strong><span style="font-size:8px;">VERSUS</span></strong></p><p><strong>

</strong><strong><span style="font-size:12px;">TROY TORNADO</span></strong></p><p> </p><p>

Tornado doesn’t wait for the bell, but Gauge is ready for him and quickly gains the upperhand. The pair trade momentum for the better part of the near-fifteen minute match, Tornado looking as good as he has in years and keeping the pace with Gauge. The ending sees Tornado go for a Star Maker on Gauge, only to have Gauge throw him off into the ropes, connect with a vicious looking German suplex, and clamp on the Proton Lock to retain.</p><p> </p><p>

<strong>Eddie Peak</strong> is here to deliver another Sinner Sermon, his podium setup on the side of the entrance stage this time rather than in the ring.</p><p> </p><p>

“I have spoken at length about chaos… violence… hedonism… pride,” he begins. “But I am here tonight to speak to you about victory, and pride! You cannot just talk the talk in this world, nay! You must walk the walk, tread the path of the sinner with <em>pride</em> in this world to truly be a dark beacon unto it. They say that pride cometh before the fall, but, I say unto you, pride must come before victory! Who among you is prideful? Who among you is willing to sink to the depths of Hell, with pride, to claim victory?” the psychotic ‘preacher’ lets his question hang in the air for a moment before ending, as always, with, “Blessed are the sinners!”</p><p> </p><p>

</strong><strong><span style="font-size:8px;">VERSUS</span></strong></p><p><strong>

</strong><strong><span style="font-size:12px;">THE MIGHTY</span></strong></p><p><strong>

(MIGHTY MO & TANA THE MIGHTY)</strong></p><p> </p><p>

These two teams have met several times over the past few months, and seem to be at a stalemate. There is, surprisingly, no wild brawl to start off the match as Mighty Mo starts off the match against Killer Shark and proceed to spend the next half of the match cut-off from his partner, getting wailed on by The Behemoths as Tana looks on helplessly, reaching out for the tag every time his partner is near. However, when Mighty Mo finally manages to shove Titan into Killer Shark and give himself a chance for the tag, he crawls to the corner only to find Tana standing there, shaking his head!</p><p> </p><p>

“What is going on here??” Jason Azaria questions as Mighty Mo reaches up desperately, but Tana drops off of the ring apron!</p><p> </p><p>

“Oh no!” Jasmine Saunders cries as Eddie Peak comes over to Tana with an evil smile on his face, patting the giant on the shoulders as Mighty Mo looks on in betrayal.</p><p> </p><p>

From there, Mo finds himself dragged back into the ring and utterly mauled by The Behemoths as Eddie Peak stands outside, whispering God knows what into the giant’s ear. It’s elementary from there, Tana climbing into the ring as Killer Shark, Titan, and finally the heavily booed Tana take turns hitting Mighty Mo with their finishers before Shark makes the pin and Titan forces the referee to make a three-count.</p><p> </p><p>

“This is absolutely disgusting!” Kyle Rhodes declares as The Sinner Society celebrates in the ring, Tana standing over his fallen former partner with a foot on his chest victoriously.</p><p> </p><p>

</p><div style="text-align:right;"><p><strong>WINNERS:</strong> The Behemoths (8:18)</p><p>

<hr></p><p>

Following a short advertisement for next month’s pay-per-view, Where Angels Fear to Tread, <strong>Jay Chord</strong> is out for a promo before his match with <strong>Sammy Bach</strong>.</p><p> </p><p>

"Ricky Dale Johnson seems to think that I was asking," he begins. "The Championship Committee must think I was asking rather than making demands because they expect me to sit and wait like a good boy… ain't happening! I'm gonna start tonight with Sammy Bach, and then Tuesday night, if I don't hear what I wanna hear come outta that stupid cowboy's mouth <em>ALL</em> of TCW is on notice! <em>NO ONE</em> and I do mean… no one… is gonna keep me from my destiny!”</p><p> </p><p>

<strong><span style="font-size:12px;">JAY CHORD</span></strong></p><p><strong>

</strong><strong><span style="font-size:8px;">VERSUS</span></strong></p><p><strong>

</strong><strong><span style="font-size:12px;">SAMMY BACH</span></strong></p><p> </p><p>

Sammy Bach is a house of fire from the start, but Jay Chord soon rises to the occasion to take the momentum from him. They have a competitive enough match until a frustrated Chord, angry at Bach kicking out of a Super DDT, takes out the referee with a brutal elbow shot. From there, <strong>Joshua Taylor</strong> charges to the ring to help Chord put a beating on Bach, locking him in the Butterfly Lock while Chord slaps and berates him. That brings out <strong>Ricky Dale Johnson</strong> to a huge pop, rolling up his sleeves on the way to the ring and ready to get physical.</p><p> </p><p>

“The Committee Cowboy isn’t gonna stand for this!” Azaria cries as RDJ enters the ring and gives Chord an elbow, then rushes Taylor to get him off of Bach.</p><p> </p><p>

“Yeah, but what’s going on with this match??” Rhodes asks.</p><p> </p><p>

The whole fracas turns into a brawl between RDJ and Taylor, spilling out of the ring as another referee charges down the ramp just as Jay Chord is hitting a Cradle Piledriver and Bach to count the pinfall. RDJ clocks Taylor, then looks back into the ring with an unhappy lock of shock on his face as Jay Chord celebrates.</p><p> </p><p>

“This is a travesty!” Azaria exclaims.</p><p> </p><p>

</p><div style="text-align:right;"><p><strong>WINNER:</strong> Jay Chord (11:32)</p><p>

<span style="font-size:8px;"><strong>MATCH RATING: 78</strong></span></p></div><p></p><p></p><p>

<hr></p><p>

We are taken backstage where <strong>Aaron Andrews</strong> is standing with his teammates for Battleground, <strong>Freddy Huggins</strong> and <strong>Dogs of War</strong>.</p><p> </p><p>

“Guys, first of all… thank you for doing this,” Andrews begins. “Thank you for putting your bodies on the line tonight so that we can have some relief from Wolf Hawkins and The Syndicate. Defeat for them tonight will be huge, while defeat for us means that they have a chance to grab more control over TCW. They’ll have the bragging rights, Wolf will have his title shot… we can’t let that happen, boys,” The Ace explains.</p><p> </p><p>

“Don’t worry, Ace,” Huggins assures him. “We won’t let you down, and we won’t let me down, either,” he grins. “Don’t forget, we win and that match Jay Chord wants so bad next month belongs to me.”</p><p> </p><p>

“Wouldn’t dream of it, Hugster,” Andrews smirks as they slap hands confidently. “What about you guys? Ready to go to war?” he asks as attention turns to <strong>One Man Army</strong> and <strong>Human Arsenal</strong>.</p><p> </p><p>

“Born ready, Ace,” Arsenal answers.</p><p> </p><p>

“Locked and loaded,” One Man Army nods confidently, raising a fist and cupping his other hand over it.</p><p> </p><p>

“Freddy… you still up for going out first?” Andrews asks, and Freddy nods confidently.</p><p> </p><p>

“Look, I trust you guys… I wouldn’t be heading into the war zone with you if I didn’t,” Huggins says. “But I want my title shot next month… I don’t care what I gotta go through to get it. The Syndicate might’ve won the coin toss, but I’m going to see to it that they never get the numbers advantage.” The members of Team Andrews all nod in agreement. “Doesn’t matter who they send out first, I’ll see to it they’re nullified before their teammate makes it out.”</p><p> </p><p>

“Let’s go to war, gentlemen,” Andrews says as he puts his fist out and soon all four men have their fists together.</p><p> </p><p>

WOLF HAWKINS, DOC HAMMOND, AND THE ELITE</p><p> </p><p>

… Freddy Huggins has entered the Battleground… … Doc Hammond has entered the Battleground…</p><p> </p><p>

The two men spend a moment circling, looking at the high, black chain-link cage while the announcers sell how different this match will be from anything we’ve ever seen before. Incredibly, Huggins and Hammond start with a lock-up but Hammond quickly throws a knee into Huggins’ midsection. A few punches, and then he throws Huggins into the cage and grinds his face against it while Huggins screams. Hammond showboats for a moment, but that only allows Huggins to retaliate and respond in kind by grinding Hammond’s forehead into the metal chain-link. A normal brawl breaks out from there, Hammond ensuring that Huggins doesn’t make good on his promise to even the numbers game when the crowd starts counting down the next entrant.</p><p> </p><p>

… Eddie Chandler has entered the Battleground…</p><p> </p><p>

Chandler tries to hurry the official unlocking the cage as Huggins and Hammond continue to brawl, eventually charging in and blindsiding Huggins as the crowd boos. Hammond & Chandler work Huggins over for the better part of the next two minutes, aside from a few hope spots where Huggins looks like he’s about to overcome the odds, but it never comes to pass before the crowd begins counting down again.</p><p> </p><p>

… One Man Army has entered the Battleground…</p><p> </p><p>

The crowd cheers as One Man Army charges towards the cage, sliding into the ring and going right for Eddie Chandler to even the odds. Army forces Chandler into the corner and puts the boots to him for a moment while Huggins and Hammond recover, but it isn’t long before Army is working over Chandler in one corner of the ring while Hammond goes back to working over Huggins in another. Army eventually begins slamming Chandler’s head into the turnbuckle, and Hammond stops his beating of Huggins to go help out his teammate… but before he can get there, a woozy Huggins grabs him and nails him with a Huggins Kiss! Both men are down, and One Man Army puts Chandler down with a bulldog off the top rope, standing tall on his own as the audience counts down once again.</p><p> </p><p>

… Nate Johnson has entered the Battleground…</p><p> </p><p>

Johnson enters the ring and goes right for One Man Army, the two teeing off on one another with the other man down and recovering all around the ring. They go from brawling to trading holds and reversals, a wrestling match breaking out in the center of the ring among all of the bodies. Eventually, they begin to get back up, Chandler and Hammond teaming up to put the boots to Freddy Huggins while Army and Johnson continue their mini-match. The crowd has gotten so into it, they don’t even notice the timer ticking down at first.</p><p> </p><p>

… Human Arsenal has entered the Battleground…</p><p> </p><p>

Arsenal enters the cage and goes to save Huggins from the 2-on-1, One Man Army doing an overhead release suplex into the cage on Nate Johnson and then going over to take the numbers game up a notch with Arsenal and Huggins. During all of this, Hammond ends up taking a Bulldog Missile from Dogs of War while Huggins eats an Elitism from The Elite! This turns it into a 2-on-2 with the Tag Team Champions squaring off against their most recent contenders in the middle of the ring. Army pairs off with Chandler while Arsenal and Johnson duke it out. Once again, the crowd doesn’t catch the timer at ten because of the action in the ring.</p><p> </p><p>

… Wolf Hawkins has entered the Battleground…</p><p> </p><p>

The only man left for The Syndicate, and the last chance they have to play the numbers advantage enters the cage and goes right for Freddy Huggins, who is still recuperating in one corner. The Alpha Wolf puts the boots to him for a moment before picking him up and backing him into a corner so he can ram his shoulder into his midsection a few times. Hammond is finally recovered from the Bulldog Missile he took, and slowly makes his way over to help out Hawkins with beating up on Freddy Huggins. Meanwhile, the tag teams continue to square off in the other half of the ring with The Elite having the upperhand at the moment. Just as the 4-on-3 advantage The Syndicate has starts to really play into their favor, the crowd begins their countdown along with the timer.</p><p> </p><p>

… Aaron Andrews has entered the Battleground…</p><p> </p><p>

“And now the match can begin!” Jason Azaria exclaims as The Ace makes his way to the ring and starts clearing house on The Syndicate. There are big moves all over the ring as the faces stand tall together to big applause.</p><p> </p><p>

“But they haven’t won the match yet!” Kyle Rhodes calls. “And the only way is surrender… do you think any one of the men on The Syndicate are going to surrender? Are going to risk losing Wolf Hawkins’ World title shot?”</p><p> </p><p>

“I guess we’re going to find out!” Jasmine Saunders responds.</p><p> </p><p>

The match slowly picks pace back up from there, heels recovering and taking over some mini-fights while the faces maintain their upperhand in others. One Man Army attempts to submit Eddie Chandler with a crossface, but he’s rescued by Nate Johnson. Another submission spot sees Doc Hammond lock in the Texas Cloverleaf on his former longtime tag team partner One Many Army but Human Arsenal makes the save. One of the highlights of match is seeing The Elite double team powerbomb One Man Army into the cage itself, nearly buckling one side of the massive structure.</p><p> </p><p>

But the finish sees Wolf Hawkins hit a Full Moon Rising on Ace Andrews and lock in combination armhold and crossface. Andrews writhes in pain, but The Syndicate is there to put a stop to every rescue attempt. After over a minute in the agonizing hold, Andrews finally surrenders to give The Syndicate the victory, and Wolf Hawkins his TCW World Championship match at Total Mayhem.</p><p> </p><p>

Thanks guys! Trying out the addition of tweets to the world so I can flesh things out a little easier, and add some of the flavor of what's going on behind-the-scenes and in the CVerse at-large.

AUTHOR'S NOTE

=============

I just wanted to take a moment and give a big shout out to Dalton for helping get a lot of things in order for this dynasty the past couple of days. As I mentioned at the start, this is literally the first longterm TEW20 save I've done and I handcuffed myself in some ways from doing what I wanted to do with this dynasty in the settings-- but that's all been taken care of now in large part thanks to his help.

 

Also, I'm going to be introducing some new renders to this dynasty, once again in large part thanks to Dalton for opening my eyes to world of alts and rerenders available for the CVerse. I've been on the forums since 2005 but I haven't been a regular in a long, long time so it's been nice having someone "show me around," so to speak and get me reacquainted with all this community has to offer. There will be plenty of new ones used, but few of the renders I'll be switching to are sampled below...

 

Austin Smooth | Bart Biggins | Freddy Huggins

 

Human Arsenal | Mighty Mo | Sammy Bach

<span style="font-size:8px;">TOTALWRESTLING.COM UPDATE - TUESDAY, WEEK ONE, APRIL 2020</span></p><p> </p><p>

Two days removed from Battleground, TCW comes at you live on ACE with all of the fallout! What will the TCW Championship Committee and Ricky Dale Johnson have to say about Jay Chord’s demands? What will Jay Chord have to say if they don’t bend the knee to The Legacy of Greatness?</p><p> </p><p>

We’ll have two matches this week to find out who steps into the ring next week for the #1 contendership to the TCW Tag Team Championships. In our main event, the TCW Television Title will be on the line as Champion Greg Gauge defends against Sammy Bach. Despite coming up short against Jay Chord Sunday night at Battleground, The Rock God put in a good showing and came out of the match looking good despite some of the shenanigans that lead to his defeat. Mighty Mo looks to be on the warpath after being turned on by his partner and losing to The Behemoths, ending their hopes of reclaiming tag team gold.</p><p> </p><p>

All this and more, Tuesday night on ACE!</p><p> </p><p>
