Man, that is a rough list to find out you're going to be losing. Going to be a very interesting show next month.

Yeah man that was brutal! But I have to be honest, I expected it sooner or later and I must say it adds some spice to this diary lol

Let's see how I react to this

Preview for LSW Gold Rush 2021

 

15-Man Over-the-Top Rope Battle Royal to qualify for the Gold Rush match
With the last spot in the Gold Rush match for the LSW Texas Heavyweight championship still available, Ricky Dale Johnson announced an always-entertaining over-the-top rope battle royal to find out who will be the sitxh and last participant to the main event. We do not know which competitors will take part in the match, but RDJ has announced that there will be fifteen wrestlers involved in this opener.

 

The Dreadnought vs Quentin Queen
After defeating The Hive in a tag team bout alongside The Architect, The Dreadnought is ready to take on Quentin Queen in singles action. The masked behemoth pinned "Double Q" at LSW Summer Stampede 2021 last month, and he will try to repeat himself in this one versus one, while his opponent will do everything he can to come out of this match with a huge W.

 

Also, we’ll hear it from “Platinum” James Prudence!

 

   
The American Cobras (Marvel Malloy, Storm Spillane) (c) vs Jake Idol, ??? for the LSW Tag Team titles
Originally it was supposed to be "Hollywood" Jake Idol and Ernest Youngman competing for the LSW Tag Team titles, but things changed when "The Assassin" got a chance to take part in the Gold Rush match. Because of this, Jake Idol is expected to team with a partner personally chosen by "The Inner Circle," who will be the chosen competitor? Most importantly, will it be enough to defeat The American Cobras, the actual champs and among the best tag team around in North America? Marvel Malloy and Storm Spillane are ready to strike, whoever the contenders are.

 

6-Man Gold Rush match for the LSW Texas Heavyweight title
Coming out victorious from a one versus one match against Texas Hangman, the champ Joffy Laine has red hot momentum here in Lone Star Wrestling and is at the head of the table, but a crazy Gold Rush seriously threatens to end at his championship reign. As many as five contenders, in fact, will take part in this must-see Six Way match, from which the first one able to pin or submit one of his opponents will emerge the winner, taking away with him the LSW Texas Heavyweight title strap. With the last competitor yet to be determined, so far we know the names of five of the six participants in the Gold Rush match: the champ Joffy Laine, Left Shot Bradford, "The Assassin" Ernest Youngman, "The American Eagle" Kip Keenan, and "The Draw" Cali Slick. Who's walking out with the Gold?

The #1 promotion in the world recently signed multiple talents from the indie scene, ready to make them the superstars of tomorrow. This raid affected Lone Star Wrestling the most, which lost as many as four important wrestlers; the current LSW Texas Heavyweight champ Joffy Laine, "The Assassin" Ernest Youngman, Cowboy Buck Winchester and The Architect. Having signed exclusive written contracts, these four talents may still be featured in LSW upcoming event for one last time.

Wow, that was a massive blow. It's going to be interesting to see how LSW regroups after this. Next Gold Rush event probably will be the most decisive event in the history of the company. Congratulations on your DOTM awards by the way!

With the news of the recent USPW signings meaning a huge quartet of workers are about to leave, I'm going all in on a faction shake up that sees Jackpot Jordan and Jake Idol betray Ernest Youngman to align with Bradley Blaze. I was really torn between Youngman taking the fall and Joffy Laine, but if this is to be the last show for Laine, then Blaze pinning him to take the title and put the final pin in their epic feud makes sense.

Let's say Kip Keenan over Ernest Youngman- a face champ makes more sense as you have stronger heel challengers, whilst Youngman can do the job on the way out.

LSW Gold Rush 2021
Tuesday, Week 2, August 2021
Held in Dallas, TX (Mid South) in front of 842 people
36,889 viewers on WrestleWorld

 

As the majority of the competitors are already inside the squared circle, a menacing Texas Hangman and Cobra make their entrance into the battle royal that will determine the sixth and final participant of the Gold Rush match. They count 12 wrestlers inside the ring, when suddenly there echoes the theme song of The Most Wanted faction! Renegade Bradley Blaze, Maverick Chip Martin and Outlaw Wes Revell reach the ring, also taking part in the match! [41]

 

15-Man Over-the-Top Rope Battle Royal to qualify for the Gold Rush match
The three members of The Most Wanted are immediately attacked by Texas Hangman and Cobra, who despite the three-on-two situation manage to hold their own against Blaze's brigade. The first to be eliminated is Jules Night, courtesy of The Hot Taggs. Kalder and Wolfie, however, are the next to go, eliminated by Rob Reynolds and Al Coleman. Meanwhile, The Most Wanted manages to pull off a big upset when Outlaw Wes Revell and Maverick Chip Martin throw Cobra over the third rope. Jason Patterson and Tavon Blake Jr's dreams of glory are dashed with the former being eliminated by EBK and the latter being tossed out of the ring by Renegade Bradley Blaze. The 2-time Texas Heavyweight champ is in danger of being eliminated by his old rival Miller Fforde, but Waylon Walls makes a strange save and sends "The Fighting Underdog" out, while Texas Hangman throws Rob Reynolds and Al Coleman over the third rope in a matter of seconds. It comes down to six competitors, actually five! Suddenly in fact Waylon Walls turns his back on Bullseye, beating down his former teammate and eliminating him! The Californian thug takes the spotlight and joins The Most Wanted, regrouping with them and giving the idea of collaborating with the heel faction now! Texas Hangman fights tooth and nail in a four-on-one, even managing to eliminate Maverick Chip Martin, but eventually ends up being eliminated by Bradley Blaze, Wes Revell and Waylon Walls. And with only these three left in the ring, "The Renegade" signals them and both "The Outlaw" and Waylon Walls self-eliminate from the match, leaving an easy victory for their leader. After fourteen minutes of this wild brawl, Renegade Bradley Blaze is in the Gold Rush match! [45]

 

After the match, a beaming Bradley Blaze takes a microphone and announces the new look of The Most Wanted. Yes, the group lost to Cowboy, who left them for greener pastures, but they have found a worthy replacement: Bandit Waylon Walls! "The Renegade" then talks about his qualification for the Gold Rush match in tonight's main event, promising that finally the LSW Texas Heavyweight championship will be back in his hands. [32]

 

The Dreadnought vs Quentin Queen
After defeating The Hive in a tag team bout alongside The Architect, The Dreadnought takes on Quentin Queen in singles action and pins him once again in a poor match, ended in seven minutes by pinfall after a Dream Bomb from the behemot. At ringside, The Architect and Remmy Honeyman don’t play a role in the bout, only being out there to watch their respective partners. This match gets the crowd hotter. [37]

 

In a backstage segment, Jake Idol and Venus Angeletti appear to have finally found Ernest Youngman after searching for him for a while. "Hollywood" is particularly concerned because his partner for tonight's championship match still hasn't checked in and "The Assassin" himself was unreachable on his phone. Ernest Youngman deflects as to where he was, saying that he has been busy with business matters that he will explain to him at a later time, saying, however, that he has to give him bad news. “He” - Idol's partner for tonight - is not here, he had some travel issue, and "The Assassin" simply forgot to notify Jake Idol first. "Hollywood" and Venus Angeletti both look shocked by Youngman's attitude, trying to focus, however, on how they can solve the problem: Jake Idol has a tag team title match tonight and he has no partner! Ernest Youngman pats Jake Idol on the back, saying he figures there's no other solution but to ... but the crew takes us back on the ring, preventing us from hearing the end of the conversation. [60]

 

As already announced, the major star James Prudence walks out here to address his future here in Lone Star Wrestling and reveal what convinced him to bring his talent to the Mid South. His promo is abruptly interrupted, however, by Raphael, Ozzie Goldstein and Flash Savage, with the leader of the group still visibly angry at James Prudence after losing to him in a one versus one bout. "The Masterpiece" Raphael says that he will not allow "Platinum" to make good here in LSW; there is no room for a washed up wrestler like James Prudence, and The First Impression will smash his face and send him into oblivion right now. Raphael, Ozzie Goldstein and Flash Savage encircle James Prudence, ready for a three-on-one, but luckily The Heartbreak Express come in out of nowhere to make the save, evening the numbers. The First Impression regroup at ringside, starting to yell at James Prudence, Johnny Needham and Ralph Liotta. Ricky Dale Johnson walks out and takes advantage of the situation, calling out a referee and announcing a three versus three match, right here, right now! [50]

 

The First Impression (Raphael, Savage, Goldstein) vs James Prudence, The Heartbreak Express (Needham, Liotta)
In a decent match, The First Impression manage to isolate first Ralph Liotta, then Johnny Needham, cooperating a lot and continuing to give each other the tag, holding their opponents to their corner. Things change as James Prudence finally gets a hot tag, cleaning out the ring and locking Ozzie Goldstein in his Prudential Pain Plan, but Raphael's interference breaks the submission hold. After sixteen minutes, The First Impression eventually get the W, when Raphael pins Johnny Needham after a Cupid's Arrow. The announcing quality lifts the match, just like the performance of major star James Prudence, who despite the defeat of his team still comes out quite strong. Tensions between “Platinum” and “The Masterpiece” Raphael haven’t dissolved yet. [48]

 

As the LSW Tag Team champions Marvel Malloy and Storm Spillane stand in the ring, here comes a dejected and unnerved "Hollywood" Jake Idol, who stops on the ramp and looks back, giving an apologetic nod to his mysterious partner to join him ... And here comes Prime Time Jack Pryde! The cocky rookie appears on stage all smiling, excited at the idea that finally "The Inner Circle" has given him a chance. However, Jake Idol has found himself without his chosen partner, "screwed over" by his longtime friend Ernest Youngman, and now he will have to play his title shot together with the only possible choice; a young and promising Jack Pryde who does not seem to be at the level required for this kind of match. Will this duo be able to do the impossible, walking out as new tag team champs? [43]

 

   
The American Cobras (Marvel Malloy, Storm Spillane) (c) vs Jake Idol, Prime Time Jack Pryde for the LSW Tag Team titles
As Jake Idol prepares himself to start the bout, Prime Time Jack Pryde enthusiastically stops him, and convincing him to let him start! "Hollywood" gives him room, but he soon regrets it, as in the first couple of minutes Jack Pryde is dominated technically by The American Cobras, one of the best tag teams in North America. The match balances out as the minutes go by and the inclusion of "Hollywood" Jake Idol, but eventually Prime Time Jack Pryde gets too excited and takes a tag too lightly, interrupting his tag partner's momentum and eventually ending up tapping out to Storm Spillane's Kneeling Boston Crab, which brings home the victory for The American Cobras in a decent match that lasts around fourteen minutes. The American Cobras make defense number two of the LSW Tag Team titles and celebrate with the crowd, while a disappointed "Hollywood" Jake Idol returns backstage. [46]

 

A taped video hypes up the upcoming debut of a charismatic new wrestler from Puerto Rico. In a promo lasting little more than a minute, the good looking Xavi Ferrera says he can’t wait to join the Mid South to prove his value. The Puerto Rican with Portoguese roots has all the tools: the look, the athleticism, the skills, and he promises to be a real “GAME CHANGER”! [34]

 

After entering the ring as the last competitor in the match, Joffy Laine stands in the center of the squared circle with his Texas Heavyweight championship on his right shoulder, having a staredown with each one of his contenders: his former rival Left Shot, "The Assassin" Ernest Youngman, an upcoming talent like Kip Keenan, the ruthless Cali Slick, and his nemesis Renegade Bradley Blaze. Tonight's task is incredibly difficult for “The Jackhammer” in his hometown: will Joffy Laine walk out the Gold Rush still as the champ of Lone Star Wrestling? [54]

 

6-Man Gold Rush match for the LSW Texas Heavyweight title
With six of the best stars in Lone Star Wrestling, this six way match turns out to be arguably the best match ever for the promotion, and certainly the fact that any of the competitors are only one successful pinfall or submission attempt away from winning the LSW Texas Heavyweight title makes everything really exciting. After some near falls, Cali Slick has a big chance to close the bout but suddenly here comes another blackout leaving the venue in the dark, and after a few seconds when the light returns there is an unexpected scene: Cali Slick is knocked out on the mat and on top of him we find Rayne Man! The veteran is back and he keeps wrapped around his fist the Californian's golden chain with which he seems to have just hit him, but what is even more important is the changes we see in Rayne Man, who has red paint all over his face and a look somewhere between nutty and enthusiastic. Vinny Cruz is in shock at ringside, ordering his security guard to punish Rayne Man, but as soon as Big Smash Clay reaches the apron he too is hit with a chain shot that sends him down and out. Rayne Man then leaves the stage, while Cali Slick rolls out of the ring where he will remain KO'd for the last few minutes. The clock keeps ticking, Joffy Laine, Kip Keenan and Left Shot are outside the ring, trying to recover, and inside the squared circle Renegade Bradley Blaze connects the Dallas Drop on Ernest Youngman: IT'S OVER! 1 .. 2 .. NOOOO! Joffy Laine grabs "The Renegade" by the foot and drags him off Ernest Youngman's exhausted body, interrupting the successful pinfall attempt. Bradley Blaze is in despair, staring into his nemesis' eyes and pulling at his hair, completely losing it after being a split second away from finally regaining the Texas Heavyweight title. "The Renegade" struggles back to his feet and in a climatic staredown goes toe-to-toe with Joffy Laine, slapping him in the face! The champ immediately claps back by connecting the Death Spiral on Bradley Blaze! IS OVER! Joffy Laine has just landed the blow of his vict... DREAM LEFT HOOK! DREAM LEFT HOOK! Left Shot reappears out of nowhere, hurling himself in front of "The Jackhammer" and hitting him with his signature punch, then ruining exhausted over his body for the cover: 1 ... 2 .. Kip Keenan jumps back in the squared circle to break the count, but he’s late .. 3!! DIN DIN DIN!! The Gold Rush has come to and end, and after twenty-five minutes the winner by pinfall and NEW LSW Texas Heavyweight champ: LEFT SHOT! [64]

Yep, massive blow! But we'll manage that! As long as these raids won't be every couple of months we can work around them I guess. Thx for the DOTM

With the news of the recent USPW signings meaning a huge quartet of workers are about to leave, I'm going all in on a faction shake up that sees Jackpot Jordan and Jake Idol betray Ernest Youngman to align with Bradley Blaze. I was really torn between Youngman taking the fall and Joffy Laine, but if this is to be the last show for Laine, then Blaze pinning him to take the title and put the final pin in their epic feud makes sense. 

Fun scenario! As you could read The Most Wanted too has a a little change in the squad without Idol and Jordan involved. Guess I can talk a bit about "The Inner Circle"; my goal was to create a stable with Youngman, Venus, Idol, Jordan and Jack Pryde, but seeing "The Assassin" sign with USPW I had to revise my plans. Let's say for now the arrival of Jackpot Jordan is on standby and first I want to focus on getting Jake Idol and Prime Time Jack Pryde logically out of this storyline, not to mention that Venus Angeletti ain't followed Youngman and is still in LSW 👀

The Dreadnought vs Quentin Queen [1 Pts]

Dreadnought's really bad in the ring

Yeah I mean he's definitely not Tommy Cornell when it comes to in-ring skills lol but 80+ in Star Quality and 90+ in Menace is more than enough for trying to build him. Right now his performance ratings are around 25 FYI

[DinoKea]

Running through the show:

Waylon Wells makes a lot of sense as a new member of The Most Wanted and what happens next with Bullseye should be interesting. Not sure I'd count 2 people eliminating Cobra as an upset though.

The Heartbreak Express and Canadian Blondes just can't seem to keep away from each other it seems.

Love Jack Pryde's story, the old trying to convince a faction to take you in is always great

Lots to talk about in the main event. Rayne Man's new character and attack on Cali Slick exciting, Left Shot has probably been one of you most interesting wrestlers for the whole of this diary and is a great option as champion. I feel your face side is currently weaker, but he's got a few potential challengers in Kip Keenan, Rayne Man and James Prudence if you wanted.

Yep it definitely is, it was already before but at least I had Joffy Laine lol

Of course James Prudence is #1 option here, At least I have to push Kip Keenan (and potentially Xavi Ferrera) to become well known/star as soon as possibile.

Total Wrestling News: Bullseye Out Of LSW

 

Bullseye recently confirmed on his social media that Lone Star Wrestling has informed him that he will no longer take part in the promotion's events. With a total record of 4 wins and 10 losses, Bullseye has never been the focal point of the company led by Ricky Dale Johnson, teaming up with Waylon Walls, who was added to The Most Wanted faction at LSW Gold Rush 2021. The 25-year-old Daredevil will, however, continue to work with his tag team partner on the South West scene with CZCW.

[Wrestling Machine]

Preview for LSW Desperados 2021

 

The Dreadnought vs Tavon Blake Jr
The path of destruction by The Dreadnought continues here in the Mid South, even without having The Architect, who left LSW out of the blue, at his side. The question now arises, what will now become of this behemoth? Will someone else approach him to exploit his physical overpower? Or perhaps the absence of a tactical guide by his side might lead him to make a few too many mistakes inside the ropes and walk out defeated from his match against "The Grappler" Tavon Blake Jr?

 

Johnny Needham vs Flash Savage
The rivalry between The Heartbreak Express and The Canadian Blondes continues, this time with some singles action between the two lightweights of their respective duos. Johnny Needham takes on Flash Savage is a one-on-one match that promises to be sizzling and faster paced than what we usually see here in Lone Star Wrestling.

 

Bandit Waylon Walls vs Miller Fforde
The newest member of The Most Wanted faction has a chance to best introduce himself to his new allies, clashing in a one versus one against Miller Fforde, longtime rival of Walls leader Renegade Bradley Blaze. "The Bandit" seems to have left aside the blustery ways of the hood, appearing more assertive, but he will have to be very careful in this challenge. His opponent in fact, managed by the wise veteran Johnny Martin, is known to be "The Fighting Underdog" capable of exceeding expectations, suffering the physicality of his opponents but still managing to bring home the victory in the end.

 

The Strong Hand (Cobra, Texas Hangman) vs The Hive (Quentin Queen, Remmy Honeyman)
After several months spent chasing the Texas Heavyweight title, it is still unclear what the focus is now for Texas Hangman and The Strong Hand faction, led by "The Preacher" Travis Century. Meanwhile, "The Hangman" and Cobra are set to team up against Remmy Honeyman and Quentin Queen, a tag team of babyfaces who few months ago were just a step away from the top of the tag team division and is now back in the middle of the pack. A victory against The Strong Hand would be huge for them right now.

 

Also, we’ll hear it from the new LSW Texas Heavyweight champ Left Shot!

 

Rob Reynolds Open Challenge for the LSW Brass Knuckles title
If ain’t broke, don’t fix it! The inaugural Brass Knuckles champion Rob Reynolds walked out still as the title holder after three consecutive title defences in open challenges. A fourth one is set to be issued on LSW Desperados 2021, under brass knuckles rules in a No DQ match. Who will step up to the challenge? Will "The Motor City Menace” retain once again?

 

The American Cobras (Marvel Malloy, Storm Spillane) vs The Wild Cats (El Jaguar, Tigre Salvaje Jr)
After releasing an official statement, Lone Star Wrestling announced that it has finalized a deal with Mexican promotion Comité Internacional de Lucha Libre, which operates in the Occidente, not too far from the border. To celebrate this deal that could bring some great talents of lucha libre here to the Mid South, Ricky Dale Johnson made official a non-title match between LSW tag team champs The American Cobras and CILL tag team champs The Wild Cats. El Jaguar and Tigre Salvaje Jr are one of the hottest tag teams on the Mexican scene and will no doubt be very tough opponents for Marvel Malloy and Storm Spillane.

 

“Hollywood” Jake Idol vs Kip Keenan
A great one versus one match graces the card of this event, with some solid competitors set to square up one against the other. "Hollywood" Jake Idol walked out of LSW Gold Rush 2021 on the losing end in a Tag Team titles match, after his longtime friend Ernest Youngman decidedly screwed him over, first by pulling out of the match, then by screwing up when contacting a partner who could replace him in the title match, forcing Jake Idol to have to choose Prime Time Jack Pryde, certainly not his first choice. Kip Keenan also walked out of the last show without the gold, despite taking part in the Gold Rush match. "The American Eagle," however, put up a good showing and is undoubtedly in good shape. This bout promises to be very interesting indeed.

LSW Desperados 2021
Friday, Week 1, September 2021
Held in New Mexico Armoury (Mid South) in front of 963 people
38,927 viewers on WrestleWorld

 

The show opens with the play-by-play commentator Alfonso Garcia who welcomes everybody to the show and introduces his new partner on the announcing table, Duke Hazzard! Immediately afterwards Ricky Dale Johnson takes a few minutes in the squared circle to confirm the fact that some wrestlers left Lone Star Wrestling recently, wishing them all the best of luck in their careers. The boss says he is confident that his promotion will continue to go strong despite these departures, and agreeing with RDJ here comes the new LSW Texas Heavyweight champ Left Shot, who with arrogance states that LSW will certainly not miss those four runaways, as the promotion now has THE TOUGHEST CHAMP to carry the show. Interrupting Left Shot comes in turn James Prudence, the major star who is greeted with great warmth by the New Mexico audience. A beef ensues between the two, as "Platinum" reveals that his next goal in the Mid South is becoming LSW Texas Heavyweight champ, while Left Shot simply tell him to just bring it! Within a couple of minutes, the tension quickly rises and Ricky Dale Johnson quickly exploits this for his own gain, officiating a title match right here, tonight, in the main event! [64]

 

The Dreadnought vs Tavon Blake Jr
In a short match that lasted around five minutes The Dreadnought, left "orphaned" by The Architect, defeats Tavon Blake Jr by pinfall with a Dread Bomb, after avoiding his opponent's initial grappling attempts. Practically during the execution of the Dread Bomb, a young and attractive girl appears at ringside, looking smugly at the behemoth while he pins Tavon Blake Jr for the victory and being recognized by the announcing team ... She's Laura Catherine Huggins! [25] Laura Catherine Huggins comes to the ring where she introduces herself, saying she has a clear goal in mind. Huggins believes LSW is proving to be one of the hottest thing on the North American wrestling scene and she's here to be a part of it, taking the best talent and welcoming herself into her brand-new agency. And what better talent than the imposing, herculean, fierce The Dreadnought? The agent believes that the masked powerhouse is going to be a star in this business, just like or even more than his dad! And with her own assistance, The Dreadnought will conquer the Mid South in no time. [52]

 

Johnny Needham vs Flash Savage
The rivalry between The Heartbreak Express and The Canadian Blondes continues, as the two lightweights of their respective duos square up in this one-on-one, while Ralph Liotta and Ozzie Goldstein assist at ringside. In a bout that doesn't have much heat, Johnny Needham defeats Flash Savage in eight minutes by pinfall after a beautiful Moonsault. This match gets the crowd hotter, and the announcing quality lifts the bout. [35]

 

We go backstage, where "Hollywood" Jake Idol is busy talking to Venus Angeletti, both dark in the face, talking with disappointment about Ernest Youngman leaving them here in Lone Star Wrestling without an explanation, without even saying goodbye. Prime Time Jack Pryde interrupts the two, certainly not a good idea, saying he in turn is sorry that "The Assassin" left the Mid South, but hey! For every person who leaves, there is a spot that becomes vacant, and "Prime Time" is ready to take his place inside The Inner Circle! Venus Angeletti shakes her head, as Jake Idol brings Jack Pryde back to the real world by explicitly telling him that there is no "Inner Circle" and that the last thing Jake Idol wants right now is to have Jack Pryde around again, before walking away alongside the beautiful valet. [46]

 

Bandit Waylon Walls vs Miller Fforde
Bandit Waylon Walls is set to have his first singles match after joining The Most Wanted faction, being accompanied by Renegade Bradley Blaze, Outlaw Wes Revell and Maverick Chip Martin. His opponent is a former rival of Walls' new leader, "The Fighting Underdog" Miller Fforde, accompanied to the ring by his manager and trainer Johnny Martin. In a bout that has sub-par wrestling and little heat, Bandit Waylon Walls defeats Miller Fforde in around eight minutes by pinfall with a Jumping Double Arm DDT, after Renegade Bradley Blaze distracted his opponent. Despite being unconvincing early on, Waylon Walls is getting better at his Bandit gimmick. [40]

 

After the bout, Renegade Bradley Blaze takes the floor saying he was thrilled that damn Joffy Laine left the town, then regretting how the Gold Rush match went. "The Renegade" had the match in the bag, his pinfall attempt would have been successful, but the intervention of his recent nemesis blew it. But the goal certainly hasn't changed, Bradley Blaze still is obsessed with regaining for the third time the Texas Heavyweight championship, and he wants another title match! Ricky Dale Johnson walks out to confront one of his best wrestlers, promising him a title shot ... Should Bradley Blaze succeed in triumphing in the King Of The Rodeo tournament he will stage next month, sponsored by Herrera Steak, the best steak in town! [33]

 

The Strong Hand (Cobra, Texas Hangman) vs The Hive (Quentin Queen, Remmy Honeyman)
Led by "The Preacher" Travis Century, Texas Hangman and Cobra team up successfully against Remmy Honeyman and Quentin Queen. The Hive try their best to sting The Strong Hand repeatedly, but adopo ten minutes Texas Hangman manages to grab the neck of Remmy Honeyman, connecting the Choke Slam capable of giving him victory, while Cobra takes care of Quentin Queen while he's trying to enter the squared circle. In a decent match The Strong Hand prevail, and one wonders what the next steps are for this sect. [49]

 

Rob Reynolds makes his entrance with the LSW Brass Knuckles title firmly around his waist, receiving a decent pop from the nearly 1,000 fans in attendance here tonight. Once again, it's time for the No DQ Open Challenge match for the championship, and this time it is "Mr. Submission" Al Coleman who shows up, catching "The Motor City Menace" by surprise. Rob Reynolds and Al Coleman have fought a few matches together in recent months, and the two have a very good friendship, but apparently "Mr. Submission" is all in for business and is ready to put aside his sympathies to try to take home the LSW Brass Knuckles title belt. [41]

 

Rob Reynolds (c) vs Al Coleman in a No DQ Open Challenge match for the LSW Brass Knuckles title
In a decent match, Al Coleman pulls off several submission maneuvers, forcing the champ to find alternate ways to escape other than a rope break that doesn't count in a No DQ bout. "The Motor City Menace" responds in kind with heavy strikes and kicks, but eventually fails to connect the Real Deal Rocker and ends up being trapped in Coleman' signature Ankle Brace! Rob Reynolds screams in agony and he's just seconds away from losing the last of his remaining energy, but he still manages to find a solution, grabbing his wrench resting on the mat three feet away from him, turning around and managing to hit Al Coleman on his head to knock him out. After eleven minutes of match, Rob Reynolds slingshots over his opponent to score the pinfall: 1 ... 2 .. 3!! After the bell, Rob Reynolds immediately goes to check on Al Coleman's condition, almost apologizing for the wrench shot and saying that "He had to do it!", hugging him on the mat before leaving the ring with the Brass Knuckles title. [43]

 

The American Cobras (Marvel Malloy, Storm Spillane) vs The Wild Cats (El Jaguar, Tigre Salvaje Jr)
It's time for some tag team action, and this is going to be a great match-up between the LSW Tag Team champs The American Cobras and the CILL Tag Team champs The Wild Cats, in a bout officiated primarily to promote the partnership agreement between Lone Star Wrestling and Comité Internacional de Lucha Libre. In a decent match, The American Cobras walk out on top after well-fought twelve minutes, when Storm Spillane submits Tigre Salvaje Jr with a Kneeling Boston Crab. [58] After the match, Marvel Malloy and Storm Spillane go face-to-face with the defeated Tigre Salvaje Jr and El Jaguar, shaking their hands as all four competitors show respect to each other, complimenting each other's performances. And who knows, maybe we can see The Wild Cats here again in the Mid South given their good performance. [38]

 

We are in the ring once again as Cali Slick, Vinny Cruz and the security guard Big Smash Clay stand tall as "The Draw" calls out Rayne Man, who appeared during the Gold Rush match with facepaint and all new look when he cost Cali Slick his match. The veteran walks out and immediately tells everyone that "Rayne Man is gone." The beatdowns and humiliations suffered by Cali Slick and his agent Vinny Cruz marked him and definitely changed him. Therefore, the veteran took Vinny Cruz's advice and gave way to his more "ruthless" personality, making him embrace his new persona. And this new persona likes to call himself the SOUTHERN STING! The fka Rayne Man clearly enjoys having the freedome to go off-script and embrace his new crazy swagger gimmick, and when Cali Slick tells him he looks like a freakin' psycho with his new ways and the facepaint, Southern Stinger replies that maybe he is, before immediately attacking him! Vinny Cruz chickens out and immediately exits the ring, while security guard Big Smash Clay grabs "The Stinger" by the weight and puts him in the corner. Cali Slick has a chance to escape out of the ring, reuniting with Vinny Cruz, while a staredown between Big Smash Clay and Southern Stinger takes place in the middle of the ring, with the latter looking at the security guard with a nutty look before letting out an odd laugh. It's safe to say that the rivalry between Cali Slick and Rayn… ehm, Southern Stinger aint’ over. [45]

 

“Hollywood” Jake Idol vs Kip Keenan
In a bout that has decent wrestling but doesn't have much heat, Jake Idol and Kip Keenan have a balanced match with a couple of near falls in the first ten minutes or so. At one point, Prime Time Jack Pryde makes a run-in evidently to help "Hollywood" Jake Idol who keeps wanting to ingratiate himself, but "Prime Time" botches it and it backfires against Jake Idol, who is knocked down by Kip Keenan's Belly To Belly Suplex who then attempts a flashy pinfall: 1 ... 2 .. 3!! "The American Eagle" scores the W over "Hollywood”, furious with Jack Pryde who returns with his ears down backstage for fear of repercussions. [47]

 

Another vignette hypes the arrival of the Puerto Rican “Game Changer” Xavi Ferrera, who seems to portrait himself as a new babyface ready to take Lone Star Wrestling by storm. [35]

 

Left Shot (c) vs James Prudence for the LSW Texas Heavyweight title
It's finally time for a huge main event, as Left Shot is set to defend his Texas Heavyweight title for the first time from the assault of nationally well-known superstar "Platinum" James Prudence. In a bout that has great heat and decent wrestling, James Prudence gets super close to winning the bout, locking the champ in the Prudential Pain Plan from which he is saved only by a sweaty rope break. Just a minutes later Left Shot goes for his Dream Left Hook which is avoided, and James Prudence locks him in a second time in his signature submission move but this time interference from "The Masterpiece" Raphael, Prudence's rival, forces "Platinum" to break the hold to push Raphael away. The clock marks seventeen minutes, when James Prudence returns to focus on the champ, being caught off guard, however: DREAM LEFT HOOK! And you can count to twenty! Left Shot makes defense number one with a tainted win, thanks to Raphael's distraction that cost James Prudence his title shot. The bout could have been better, but unfortunately the two competitors don't seem to click and it made for an awkward bout. [54]
