King Cucaracha

SWF.COM EXCLUSIVE! LOCATION: SWF Training Facility, San Francisco, California DATE: 27th October 2007 Strolling down the gravel pathway from the parking lot, Chris Raynor looks an impatient man. Even in mid-stride he makes the effort to check his watch, possibly for show for the SWF Commissioner Landon Maddix standing at the door to the facility. Pulling the earphones of his iPod out, Landon throws a quick wave to Raynor which goes unreciprocated. "So, what did you bring me down here for?" "Well..." smiles Landon, a little too insistantly. "...I figured you should get a look at your new partner before All Hallows. He's just out there, working out a few kinks. He's just coming back from a minor injury see, so..." Raynor's face immediately begins to fall a little, which doesn't go unnoticed by Landon. The SWF Commissioner trails off and laughs, hoping that'll reassure his former partner a little more than anything he could say next would. Unsurprisingly, it doesn't. "He's really excited." is all Landon can think to say. Raynor nods and motions behind Landon to the entrance to the facility itself, clearly eager to see what's going on for himself. The Commish goes ahead and waves him on, a confident smile on his face as Raynor creaks open the door and walks a couple of steps inside... before coming to an abrupt stomp. The sounds of the ring thumping continue on as the camera zooms in over The Caveman's shoulder, to see the workers in the ring. Two young looking kids in plain coloured singlets stand in the corners observing as SWF referee and trainer Ced Ordonez is going through the motions with another, less plainly dressed person. A masked person. The black mask would be intimidating in itself, if not for the garish, brightly coloured tassles hanging off from the back of it. A black bodysuit with more garish colours littering it's design covers a not too athletic looking body- not fat but certainly not a traditionally 'in shape' professional wrestler. The mysterious masked man moves quickly enough though, as evident by the leapfrog he performs on Ced. As Ced rebounds off the ropes, he takes a hiptoss from the masked man. "Well?" prompts Landon to a still frozen Raynor... ...just as the masked man breaks into a dance routine over Ced's body. "What... the hell is it doing?" "I believe the kids call it 'Dance Dance Revolution'. Hey, they don't call him The Dance Dance Dragon for nothing you know." Raynor turns and looks disbelivingly at Landon, who still hasn't cottoned on to the fact that Raynor might not be too happy with this revelation. "This is some sort of joke, right?" "No..." "This is who I'm tagging with? A guy in a mask... who dances?" "Don't judge the book by the cover. That guy in the mask is a former OAOAST X-Division Champion." "That doesn't mean anything to me." "Well, to be fair, it didn't mean much over there either..." muses Landon, before realising he's hardly helping his case. "Look, he's Japanese, okay. You've got to forgive him for being a little... well, a little 'eccentric' by our standards. But trust me, he's got talent. He can hit hard, he's a lot more athletic than you'd give him credit on first look, I think it must be the dance training that does it. He's just the kind of character the SWF needs. Something to really capture the imagination!" Raynor glances back to where Dragon steps out an impromptu DDR routine mid-ring. Ced looks on with an approving smile. "An oddball." "Some of the SWF's finest have been 'oddballs'." Landon argues, wiping away his approving smile. "Look, Chris, when have I ever steered you wrong?" "We've only known each other about a month." "So, never!" Landon exclaims. "Besides, you're Chris Raynor! You're a tag-team specialist, four-time Tag Team Champion of the world with four different partners. People like us, we're the glue that holds teams together. Why, you could team with that gym mat on the floor over there and win the Tag Team Titles, you're that good. Trust me, that guy in there has got potential. It doesn't matter if he's a little 'strange'. It doesn't matter that he wears a mask. It doesn't matter how cheaply I obtained his OAOAST contract..." "What?" "What? The point is, Chris... you don't judge the book by it's cover. I kinda suspected you'd give me the kinda look you're giving me now. Yeah, that look. Don't you think that's the same look Flesher'll give him? Or Wild and Dangerous? Or Toxxic? Never underestimate the element of surprise." Taping his nose, Landon reaches behind him and brushes the door, which swings closed right in front of the camera lens.

8 posts talking about Val and nobody's typed *it* yet. That's got to be a record, surely. I agree with those who've said he's fine in the Tito Santana role, except Tito actually got televised wins and a small push now and then. Val's got nothing. He's barely got the nostalgia reactions now. If he's being used in the role of making other people look good, he still needs to have some sort of credibility to make a victory over him mean something. It may be that he's long past that, unfortunately. Anyway, does anyone else here keep up with Heat? The past few weeks, they've been building up Super Crazy and Hacksaw Duggan as a tag team. Their shtick is, Hacksaw says 'HO!' and then tries to get Crazy to say it, only for him to say 'SI!' And then they do it again. And again. And again. And then, once the crowd have lost the will to live, the match starts. Crazy really got injured at the worst possible time.

I can't believe people are seriously into the idea of Jeff Hardy as a World Title contender. I mean, I hear the reactions as much as anyone but... I dunno, you know the roster is thin when Jeff Hardy's main-eventing your PPVs.

-27/10- Another Halloween return Just added to the All Hallows card, the return of two-time former Hardcore Gamers Champion Christian Fury! The wrestling bug has bit Fury again and he's returned, looking for an opportunity, which he'll get on October 31st. And with the status of the Hardcore Gamers Title currently in limbo, this could be the perfect time for the returned veteran to impress. -27/10- A golden opportunity? SWF Commissioner Landon Maddix has confirmed that the SWF will return to action once more on November 14th... with a big main-event. The first World Heavyweight Title defence of the new SWF era, by new World Heavyweight Champion Toxxic no less, will take place at that event. All he needs is a challenger. And Commissioner Maddix has made it known to his new locker room, anyone and everyone is open to opportunity under his reign. An impressive performance at All Hallows could push anyone into the World Title picture. With that in mind, the stakes on October 31st have definately been raised.

Patty, not to be a jerk but, any chance I can have main-event. For semi obvious reasons it's kinda important.

Patty, leave me a space and I'll stick the MGHWC promo in tommorrow.

As we return to HeldDOWN~!, "The Church Of Hot Addiction" by Cobra Starship hits. Those fans who don't watch our weekly weekend show OAOAST Syndicated and therefore don't get to see many of our 'up and coming' workers in action are confused, until through the entrance doors walks British Columbia's favourite son James Blonde. Looking every inch the superstar in his long, faux fur coat, Blonde swaggers to the ring as a few steps behind him, the monstrous Faqu trails behind. BUFFER Ladies and gentlemen, the following tag-team contest is scheduled for one fall! On the way to the ring are team number one... total combined weight, five hundred and nine pounds. They are the team of "THE MOVER FROM VANCOUVER" JJAAAAAAAMMEEEEEESSSS BBLLLLLLLOOOOOOONNDDEEEEE... and, "THE SAMOAN WRECKING BALL"... FFFAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAQQUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!!! "BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!" COLE Faqu and Blonde are returning tonight from suspension, after their 'pitch invasion' during the Penalty Shootout between Nathaniel Black and Jamie O'Hara. Their cohort Black is still under suspension as O'Hara sits at home on the DL list. As you'll remember, he took that soccer ball clean in the face and has been suffering from blurred vision ever since. And we certainly wish Jamie a speedy recovery and look forward to having him back on HeldDOWN~! As Blonde slides into the ring and shows off his fine taste in faux fur, the menacing frame of Faqu climbs the steps and has Buffer and referee Mike Chioda backing into a further away corner. COACH Well, Faqu and Blonde are unbeaten in tag team competition since HI-YAH got bought out. But until now they've not even been in consideration for a One and Only Tag Team Title shot, so maybe they've got reason to be frustrated with the OAOAST. COLE Personally, I think Black's got in their ear. But that's another story for another time. Blonde stands behind Faqu, who stares down the empty aisleway breathing deeply and noisily, talking in his partner's ear and generally psyching him up. As this happens, the opening to "Rock You Like A Hurricane" by The Scorpions begins to hum around the arena. COLE Speaking of returns... As the sock kicks into gear, the entrance doors part and for the first time in a couple of months they summon out The Christ Air Express! The twin brothers jog onto the stage and hit a leaping double-high five, before marching on to the ring with hand-slaps for all! With a new look, The Express wear new long wrestling tights, decked out in orange and blue and also sport new shorter haircuts. BUFFER And their opponents... now residing in Laguna Beach, California! They weigh in a total combined weight of three hundred, seventy five pounds... here are MARV and MEL, THE CHRIST AIR... EEEEEXXXXPPRRRREEEEESSSSSSS!!!! "YYYEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!!" COLE Earlier in the week, we got a few words from the new and improved Christ Air Express, about their new direction in their career. Let's take a look... [COLOR=orange][i]OAOAST[/i][/COLOR] A small square box SWOOPS~ in and settles on the upper right hand side of the picture. In front of the OAOAST HeldDOWN~! backdrop stand the brothers Nerdly. MEL AngleSlam 2007 will go down as the worst night in our career. But out of adversity comes triumph. We've been sitting at home for months now, watching The Heavenly Rockers, Holly-Wood and our own brother Abdullah terrorising the OAOAST tag-team division. We looked at ourselves and damnit, we wanted to help. We wanted to come back and tear ass through those SOBs. But let's face it, what were The Sk8ter Boiz gonna do? MARV We've spent the last couple of years in the OAOAST living a joke. Everywhere we go, we have to carry around that stigma of being jokes. Nobody expected us to come back for revenge. Nobody cared. Well, we came to realise in our time away the team we can be. Life is short, too short to be laughing stocks through all of it. We've been OAOAST Tag Team Champions before but let's face it, that doesn't count. I mean, come on, we celebrated our title win with a cake from our old school-teacher for crying out loud! During our time away, we got a phonecall from somebody who made us realise what we can achieve if we put our minds to it. If we straighten up, ditch the crap and ge serious, we can make a real difference in the OAOAST. We can be Champions again. We can get our retribution. MEL First though, we had to ditch the stigmas. The stigma of The Sk8ter Boiz. The stigma of Hell Mel and The Marv. The stigma of being 'The Nerdly Brothers'. From this moment on, we're Nerdlys in name only. From now on, we're just MARV and MEL. We're not The Sk8ter Boiz. From now on, we're are The Christ Air Express. And from now on, you're gonna see a whole new MARV and MEL! MARV makes the "RAWK" hand signal. [COLOR=orange][i]HELDDOWN~![/COLOR][/i] Back to live action and MARV and MEL have long since hit the ring. Infact, we're about ready to go as MARV elects to start for his team. On the opposite side, Blonde has to virtually coax his volatile partner into starting the match on the apron. *DINGDINGDING!* COLE Well, with all that said, we're ready to go. Both of these teams will be involved in the Costume Battle Royal at the Halloween Spectacular next Wednesday night, with a chance to become One And Only World Tag Team Champions! And a big chance to get some momentum going for them tonight. Blonde swaggers over to MARV and shows no respect what-so-ever for the new and improved 'Sk8ter Boi' as he shoves him in the chest! Knocked a couple of steps backwards MARV shows his days of being treated a joke are long over as he shoves Blonde right back! Blonde doesn't look convinced though, smirking as he throws a clothesline at MARV. But MARV ducks the line, catching Blonde as he turns around and unloading with a series of short elbows. With Blonde backed up, MARV tries a whip... reversed, MARV sent for the ride. But as he rebounds MARV goes low, baseball sliding through the legs of the set Blonde. Quickly to his feet, MARV jumps up onto the confused Blonde's shoulders and pushes forward, taking him over with a Victory Roll... 1... 2... No! Blonde tries again with the clothesline and again comes up with nought. MARV ducks underneath the clothesline and comes off the ropes, throwing a dropkick to knock Blonde down. Back up scrambles Blonde, the fact he's clearly getting frustrated causing him to march right into an armdrag which MARV hangs onto with an armbar. COLE And no ring-rust from MARV thus far! COACH What the hell is this with the names? MARV and MEL? Are the capitals supposed to be intimidating? Are they Japanese wrestlers all of a sudden? COLE You'd have to ask whoever's behind their makeover. Bringing Blonde to his feet by the arm, MARV tags out to MEL. The (ever so slightly) older twin comes off the top with an axehandle to the arm and takes over with a quick wringer. Blonde goes straight to the gut with a knee though, breaking that up. Backing MEL up, Blonde shoots his opponent off the ropes and lowers his head ready for a backdrop. He telegraphs the move, as so many do, which allows MEL the time to adjust and leapfrog over him on the run. MEL continues into the ropes as Blonde looks up wondering why he 'backdropped' nothing but thin air, finding MEL soaring towards him with a Crossbody! 1... 2... No! Again Blonde rushes in. And again, he gets armdragged over and placed in the armBAR~! COLE Again, fine wrestling from The Express. This is what they're capable of, this is what the reinvention is about, to try and accentuate the positives without the past hanging over them. COACH So, some new tights and some capital letters, suddenly they're a level above Faqu and James Blonde? COLE If anybody in the OAOAST knows about re-inventing themselves in an effort to get some respect, it's James Blonde and Faqu. With the arm still barred, Blonde climbs to his feet and uses MEL's skater hairdo for some leverage. The referee quickly makes sure he stops that and MEL instantly wrings out the arm again. And again. And again, the third wringer causing Blonde to flip over onto his back! Blonde kicks his feet in frustration as MEL hangs onto the wrist and reaches out a foot for the tag. COLE Ah, the old foot-tag. There's the sign of a great tag-team! MEL flattens out the arm on the canvas, using the five count to his advantage while MARV comes off the top with a big kneedrop! Rolling away holding his arm, Blonde finds himself stuck in a neutral corner and is left with no other option than to beg off. He even goes so far as to offer his hand in friendship. Ever the nice-guy, MARV is happy to accept... in order to pull Blonde up by the hand and wring out the arm again! "YYYEEEEEEAAAAAAHHHHHH!" Another tag is made by The CAE, the arm held out for a Top Rope Double Stomp from MEL! COLE I'm telling you, MARV and MEL are on point here tonight! COACH I'm sure The Heavenly Rockers are quaking in their boots. COLE They ought to be. MEL and MARV have not forgotten what happened to them, I guarantee you. Let's not forget, Melody Nerdly will return to The Love Shack at Halloween Spectacular too. The Heavenly Rockers are making a lot of enemies and sooner or later, it's going to come back to bite them! Re-asserting the pressure on the arm, MEL snapmares Blonde to the canvas and bars up the arm. He again reaches his far foot back in order to offer the tag. But this time, the twins aren't on the same page. MARV isn't looking at his partner, as his attention has been taken by the sudden arrival of THE HEAVENLY ROCKERS!! "BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!" COLE Well, speak of the devils. What the hell are they doing out here!? COACH I dunno, scouting? Grinning away, Synth and Logan stroll to the ring, Holly-Wood wrapped around her husband like a python. MARV isn't the only one who notices The Heavenly Rockers' presence, as referee Chioda ducks out of the ring to wave them to the back. Synth and Logan takes great delight in telling the ref they're just watching the match though. And they take even more delight as the distraction allows Blonde, having got to his knees, to hit MEL with a LOWBLOW! "BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" COLE Damnit. It didn't take long for The Heavenly Rockers to play their part in this one, huh? Still nursing his arm, Blonde walks to his corner and makes sure Chioda is watching as he makes the tag to Faqu. COACH Oh here we go! COLE Here comes The Wrecking Ball. Faqu continues to snort away as he walks over to MEL. By the head he drags MEL off the canvas, backing the defenceless Canadian up into a neutral corner... *SLAP!* "WHOOOOOOOO!" ...and hitting him with a chop so hard in hurts [i]MARV[/i]!! MEL drops to one knee in the corner, as on the outside the sound of laughter echoes from Synth and Logan's direction. The 300+ pound Faqu just stands over MEL for a couple of seconds, before suddenly pouncing as he grips his taped fingers into the neck of MEL. He drags him upright again... *SLAP!* "OOOOOOOOHHH!" ...and destroys his well-defined chest with another thunderous chop!! COACH Man oh man! You can hear that in the cheapseats! COLE And look at Logan and Synth, standing there laughing at this! Bringing MEL out of the corner, Faqu scoops up and then slams MEL down, all with complete ease. Taking a couple of steps backwards The Samoan Wrecking Ball then measures his prey, before leaping up and dropping a big headbutt into the shoulder blade of MEL! Blonde quickly 'encourages' his partner to make the cover and Faqu does just that... 1... 2... No! From the floor, The Heavenly Rockers cheer Faqu on. Hearing this in the distance, Faqu looks over in their direction and just shoots a glare at The Rockers who suddenly become very defensive. It's only when a chant of "SLUT!" starts up through the arena that they stop trying make friends with the Samoan. LOGAN :devil: Blonde gets tagged back in and heads straight up to his middle rope. Clenching up the fist, Blonde stands tall on the second rope and shows off the dual Canadian/Japanese sweatbands on his wrist as he comes off the middle rope with the Marty Jannetty Fistdro... ...NO! MEL rolls out of the way and Blonde hits nothing but canvas! "YYYEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!" The crowd in Orlando cheer... but not just for Blonde's misfortune. The Heavenly Rockers are suddenly heading off to a new position over by the announce table, because LOS DIABLOS DE FUEGO have made their way out from the back and in their direction. COLE Oh yeah! COACH Now hang on a second, this isn't a lumberjill match! What are these fruits doing out here? COLE They're keeping an eye on Logan and Synth methinks! The greatest rock 'n' wrestling band of all-time don't look too happy as Los Diablos pitch up in The Christ Air Express corner, the pitchfork pointing in Holly's direction. MARV looks a little distracted at the uninvited guests for a second, before getting behind MEL's attempt to make a tag. COLE We've got a lot of combustable elements around the ring right now, Los Diablos, The Heavenly Rockers... and now, MEL looking for a tag in the ring. We've gotta take a quick break, this match will continue, don't go anywhere! [b]COMMERCIAL BREAK![/b] We return to HeldDOWN~!... and, surprisingly, to a close-up of THE MARDI GRAS HOMEWRECKING CREW! Yes, Rico and Lucius have decided to join in the party and stand watching on from the stage, discussing something behind hands which block out the intrusive camera. Back in the ring meanwhile, MARV has since entered the ring as the legal man and is on the move with James Blonde. Sent into the corner, MARV goes up and over the charge from Blonde, who ends up crashing into the turnbuckles. As Blonde then staggers from the corner, up pops MARV with a Hurricanrana... 1... 2... No! COLE Two count there, welcome back to HeldDOWN~! and as you can see, we've got even more onlookers now. The Mardi Gras Homewrecking Crew getting a bird's eye view of the action. All of these men out here will be in the Tag Team Title battle royal at The Halloween Spectacular, but we might not have to wait that long for it to break down between these teams! MARV leaves the ring and heads up to the top rope, waiting for Blonde to come his way. Below him, The Heavenly Rockers look on and start to shout abuse the moment MARV looks their way... all this allowing Blonde to rush forward and CROTCH MARV on the top turnbuckle! "OOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!" COLE And again The Rockers with a distraction! MEL and MARV are trying to wrestle this match, they're trying to stay focused on business. But that's easier said than done with these two assholes out here. COACH They're doing nothing wrong Michael, they're just trying to watch the match. I suggest you watch that mouth of yours incase they hear you. COLE I'd be surprised if they can hear me over the abuse these fans in Orlando are giving them. And rightly so! Climbing up with MARV, Blonde looks to set him up for a Superplex. However The Mover From Vancouver takes too much time setting him up and suddenly MARV starts to fight back. Jabs up under the ribs soften Blonde up, before a forearm pops him in the mouth. MARV hits another forearm, then shoves Blonde in the chest, sending him flying off the ropes... ...landing on his feet... ...AND CLOTHESLINING MARV OUT OF THE AIR AS HE FLIES TOWARDS HIM!! "OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHH!!" Cover by Blonde... 1... 2... Kickout! Adjusting his tassle covered elbowpad, Blonde props himself up on the middle rope and gives the signal for a Tornado DDT. Whether MARV sees it or not as he drags himself up isn't clear. But when Blonde goes to catch him with a right hand when he turns around, he blocks it all the same, responding with a punch of his own! MARV then scales the turnbuckles in front of Blonde... and pulls him down with a SUPER HURRICANRANA!! "YYYEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!!" COLE That oughta do it... but here comes Faqu! The big Samoan doesn't make much of an impact though, as MEL rushes in and cuts him off with a forearm. He manages to stagger the bigman, enough to buy himself and his twin brother some time as they connect with a perfectly timed double dropkick. Faqu doesn't go off his feet though... so they hit another one. Again Faqu doesn't go much more than a step or two back though. For a moment, the twins look to each other and wonder what to do. Which is when Faqu charges them with a double clothesline, forcing them to snap to their senses quickly. They duck the clotheslines and then, when Faqu turns around... THEY STOMP HIS BARE FEET!! COACH NO FAIR! COLE That's what you get for wrestling barefoot! Faqu hobbles around shouting in pain, allowing MARV and MEL to throw a Double Dropsault... or, better yet, a Double [i]Kickflip[/i]! The already off-balance Faqu goes into reverse and falls through the ropes to the floor, to a pop from the Orlando crowd! COLE Down goes Faqu! With his partner disposed of, James Blonde tries to pick up the slack... but gets taken down with a double drop toehold by The CAE. Blonde bounces off the mat and comes right back to his feet. But he walks into MARV, who hooks his head over the shoulder and hits a JAWJACKER! And as Blonde staggers away from that move, MEL hooks him by the head and runs the ropes with a SWINGING BULLDOG!! MARV *RAWK~!* Giving his partner the signal, MARV gets elevated up onto the shoulders of MEL. Carrying his brother, MEL then points down at The Heavenly Rockers before throwing MARV up and sends him crashing down across Blonde's chest with a Back Senton!! Leg hooked... 1... The Rockers go to jump in... ...BUT LOS DIABLOS PULL THEM AWAY! "YYYEEEEEEAAAAAAHHHH!" 2... 3!!!! *DINGDINGDING!* "YYYYEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!!" BUFFER Your winners of the match... MARV, MEL, THE CHRIST AIR EXPRESS!! COLE And the fight is on on the floor!! Los Diablos and The Heavenly Rockers continue to slug it out on the outside as The Christ Air Express begin to celebrate their win... right as The Mardi Gras Homewrecking Crew jump them from behind!! "BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!" The Orlando crowd are incensed as Lucius and Rico put the boots to MARV and MEL, ruining what should have been a great moment for the returning duo. But help is at hand. And who better to come to someone's aid than RESCUE 911!?! Officer Bosley and EMT Tim suddenly hit the ring, thankfully preventing The CAE from needing either one of their fellow professionals as they attack Rico and Lucius!! "YYYYYYEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!!" COLE All hell has broken loose out here! Los Diablos and The Heavenly Rockers, 911 and The Home Wrecking Crew! It's the battle royal come early, all we're missing is the costumes!! 911 quickly send Lucius and Rico packing, Lucius clotheslined up and over the top by Bosley and Rico dropkicked to the floor by Tim. Meanwhile, there's no end in sight to Los Diablos and The Heavenly Rockers as they're now in the crowd. Climbing to their feet, MARV and MEL take one look at Bosley and Tim... before the two teams go their seperate ways, 911 chasing Mardi Gras down the aisle while MARV and MEL try to catch up with the retreating Heavenly Rockers!! COACH We're going to need the entire Orlando police department to seperate this! COLE It's chaos on HeldDOWN~! We'll be back! We need a commercial to get this sorted!

El bump. Hawk, any chance of another update with the '07 stuff? And, you're a SHIMMER guy too, right? I've only got Chapters 1 and 2 so far, just wondered if there were any particular stand-out shows I should get rather than going chronologically. Cheers.

Well, unless they changed recently and it's possible because I'm really off the pace with ROH, I think there's no count-outs. Plus, I think you can half expect any Necro match to have no rules without warning or explanation. After all, it's Necro. Actually, looking at the card, Davey and Romero were announced as wrestling TJ and Kozina, which they apparantly did. So chances are Necro/Jacobs vs. Davey/Romero was impromptu, therefore non-sanctioned, therefore there weren't any rules. Which leaves the only question "how come ROH referees can just make matches on the fly by calling for the bell". But, I dunno.

He could call it the Stunnava Gun. ...

Plus, Steph books RAW so it's her fault Candice landed on her head. I'll say it before someone else does. They're already running vignettes for "Save Us" though. Not to say they couldn't run two sets of videos at the same time of course, but I assume the sell of Davey Boy's son will begin in earnest within the next few weeks, now that he's debuted. They did have the video of him on WWE.com, which is as good as hyping his debut I guess.

I think he changed to Christian actually. EWC: I think Tony's posting.

-22/10- New match added; the old and the new collide! The new era of the SWF will be rung in on October 31st and will feature two stars of the past era with a storied past, joining forces with two members of the new generation. Chris Raynor had been promised tag team action at All Hallows and will see it. And better yet, he gets a shot at redemption against the man who made his SWF life miserable for the past couple of months, Tom Flesher! Raynor's partner is still yet to be announced by SWF officials. But, under promise from new Commission Landon Maddix that he's found Raynor a suitable replacement for himself, The Caveman will go up against Flesher and his partner, Revolution Zero member and former Cruiserweight Champion The Fabulous Jakey! Regardless of who his partner may be, no doubt Chris Raynor will be looking forward to getting his hands on Flesher and showing him just what he really does has left to offer in his career, not to mention on The Fabulous Jakey who 'holds' one of Raynor's former Stables Title belts.

Faqu and James Blonde vs. The Christ Air Express Plus words from The Mardi Gras Homewrecking Crew!

-21/10- Trick Or Treat for Jay Hawke? What would Halloween be without a good suspence story? You know the drill, the beloved hero of the tale is walking down a narrow corridor of a destitute house, he hears a noise, approaches the door nervously, turns the knob and out pops... well, who knows? That's the point! If you know what's behind the door, what's there to be scared of? Jay Hawke isn't exactly a beloved hero in any shape or form. But he will be facing a fear of the unexpected this Halloween, as he sees action at All Hallows. And to make matters all the worse, it'll be in a match with No Disqualifications. His opponent. ?. Not just '?', but the '? Man' himself! Yes, the old SWF favourite, The Question Mark Man, looms over Jay Hawke. But just who will the mystery man be? Will it be a face from the past back to haunt Hawke? Will it be an unknown demon with unknown powers? Are you sick of the Halloween analogies yet? Yeah, me too. Hawke, QMM, No DQs. -21/10- Bad to worse for the former boss As if losing the post of SWF Commissioner wasn't enough, Tom Flesher's immediate future in the SWF doesn't look all that happier. Not only has $10,000 of his prospective earnings as Commissioner been set aside as prize for a Ladder Match at All Hallows, now The Superior One is on alert that he will see in-ring action himself on October 31st! While Flesher was unable for comment as of press, according to sources close to him and his 'squeeze' Allison Onita, he's not looking forward to what the new Commissioner Landon Maddix might have in store for him.

Old Wounds Re-Opened Zack Malibu vs. Stephen Joseph Popick Non Title Match Landon Maddix vs. Vitamin X

I've been promising to put this up for long enough so here we go. Any questions anyone's got that this doesn't answer, please ask them. (Also Tom, Raynor, what's the story on modship? I only ask because I'm already Mod on the OAOAST folder, does that cause a problem with me being one here? Assuming I need to be of course.) 'New' SWF? Well, not so much new as restructured. The current schedule seems to have run it's course a little. So, what's new? From now on, Storm is out. Instead of doing a weekly 'TV' show and struggling to come up with an interesting card each week, the shows will happen as and when we have the writers onboard. I'm working on the assumption that we'll get roughly 2 shows a month. The way I figure it, anyone who has even a passing interest in the fed should be able to manage two shows a month. Of course, if we can get more shows then all the better. Should we struggle one month, we can go down to one. It's much more flexible. The idea would probably be to try and sell it as each show being a 'one-off' rather than each show being part of a weekly chain, which would in theory be more interesting for the writers. Think of it more as a schedule that a promotion like Ring Of Honor would use rather than the WWE-esque schedule we'd been using. Card booking Because we're working on the premise of just writing when we have enough writers, the way the cards are made is going to change. With CC having to rely on their own judgment over whether someone is 'active' or not aside from requests not to be booked, it's causing problems. So, everyone who's committed themselves to being involved is on a PM list. When the show is being prospectively put together, everybody will be PMed or IMed or whatever other methods we can come up with, basically asking if you can and want to be booked for the upcoming show. We'll also start to ask people about bookings a show or two in advance as we get more of an idea of how many shows a month is managable. Within reason, this also allows us, and yourselves between you, to try and tailor the matches to you a little more. The more we can book ahead of time, obviously, the better. People can then come and go as they please. We'll figure out in time who are the more regular contributors and who we can rely on once every few months for one shots and who to only bother with once in a blue moon. Vets As it's only approx. two shows, there'd be no reason why the lurking vets (you know who you are) couldn't come in and be competitive again. Where-as before you'd have to come back for a few weeks at a time and write for a certain number of shows before trailing off, now there's nothing to stop anyone at all from coming in for one show, two shows, whatever you want really. From now on, you tell us what you can and can't commit to. Obviously we have our list of 'active' writers who'll be contacted. We'll also throw some feelers out now and again no doubt to try and get you in for a But, if you're interested in coming in to write something and aren't one of our active writers, you can just contact either me or Toxxic/MikeOfEvil and let us know. Newbs People can still come in the same way as now, no problem. With the way the schedule will be, with 'events' rather than 'TV shows', we can give them dark matches to test them out before booking them on the shows proper. We also have the New Blood Title, which will be open only to writers of a certain experience and provide a realistic goal for any fledgling writers, while they settle in before they're put against veteran writers on a regular basis. No-showers Because it's destined to happen with some, no matter what the schedule. If people are actually making a verbal commitment to the fed, then we can in theory be able to punish people for not showing by putting them in dark matches or eventually taking them off the PM list if they persist. In the meantime... The board will be used for promos in between the shows, something akin to ROH having a VideoWire on their website, or CZW (before they began to self-destruct) putting up XPosed, which was basically promos on the website, hyping the month's arena show. Basically the same as it is now. Or, when people wrote board promos. I'm hoping (fingers deeply crossed) that we'll get more board promos to make up for the gaps in between shows, to keep characters strong and storylines going. Once we have a decent card together, it'll go up and we work everything else (who can be booked, any match requests, letting people know there's a card) through PMs and AIMs and e-mails and so on. The card will go up in advance and be locked. Then, as new matches are arranged, the card will be updated with posts to announce each new match as well. There'll also be a seperate thread created each time, in which everybody can discuss the show, make challenges, suggestions, have non-sequitor discussions, make snide comments at people's expense- all the stuff you've come to know and cherish from the SWF board. Title situation All title records as of Genesis' end will be preserved as is. A new title tracking system will then start, based on the Japanese style of ranking by defences rather than days. Obviously in character you're more than welcome to bring up how many months you've had the belt. But the 'official' title histories will go by defences. Title lineage stays the same too, so if you're already a two time champ pre-restructure and win it again post-restructure, you'll be a three-time champ but it won't affect the 'Most Days As Champion' record we used to have. As of now, we have four titles- World Heavyweight, Tag Team, Cruiserweight, Hardcore Gamers and New Blood. For the time being they will all stay. After a few shows we'll re-evaluate if we need to drop one or not.

BUFFER Ladies and gentlemen, the following contest is scheduled for one fall with a 30 minute TV time-limit. In the ring, from Venice Beach, California! He weighs in tonight at two hundred and twenty pounds... he is BBIIIIIIFFFFFF AAAAAATTLLLLAAAAAASSSSSSS!! "BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!" Biff poses briefly, before saying something over his shoulder to Buffer. BUFFER Ladies and gentlemen at this time, Biff Atlas would like to make the following public service announcement. COLE Oh great... BIFF Thank you Bruce. [i]Michael[/i] Buffer does a double take on his way out of the ring, shaking his head sadly as he sits down. BIFF At this time, I would like to take a moment to extend my congratulations to a close personal friend of mine. In the past week, vice-president turned cartoon voice-over actor turned environmental activist Al Gore was awarded the Nobel Peace Prize, for his tireless contributions to the fight against climate change. It's heart-warming to see somebody finally recognise the efforts of a man who is making our world a better place. It's just a shame that not all such people are given that respect. With tha... .:CUE: Trust Company, "Rock The Casbah":. The crowd cease amusing themselves and suddenly come alive as the music powers through the PA system and LEON RODEZ steps through the entrance doors! Leon gives the camera a cheesy thumbs up as he walks to the ring, rubbing his eyes as he tries to recover from apparantly having just woken up. COACH See, this is exactly what Biff was trying to talk about. He's trying to get over an important message and he gets interrupted. No respect. COLE This is a wrestling show Coach, it's not a climate change convention. COACH It's not!? Well gee, that's news to me! Thank you so much for filling me in oh wise one! *groans* Rolling into the ring, the OAOAST 6-Man Tag Team Champion holds up a hand to try and placate Biff. Leon then calls for a microphone and asks for his music to be cut, Biff looking on a little confused at what's happening. LEON Now now now, I know you and I have ourselves a little wrasslin' match coming up... yes Biff, I hate to break it to you but this isn't a climate change convention, it's actually a professional wrestling show. COLE See! I told you! LEON But with that said, you're obviously just dying to launch into a little speech on the burning issue of the day there... see what I did there? That was mostly deliberate. Delicious punnage. Biff, you've obviously come prepared to speak your mind. You called Michael Buffer by his brother's name but that okay, that's not your speciality. That's not your line of knowledge. I'm sure Michael barely even realises he's here so long as the cheques cash. No, you're ready to talk about climate change and you need a forum to do that so whaddaya say we have ourselves a little impromptu LOVE SHACK! "YYYYEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!" LEON Yeah! Alright! Let's cheer whatever Leon says! "YYYYEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH!" With Biff looking ever more confused, Leon asks for and is passed two chairs. COLE Wai... what the hell is going on here? We're gonna have a Love Shack, right now!? COACH I thought you said this was a wrestling show? Setting up the two chairs in the ring, Leon sits himself down in the first one and crosses his legs. Trying to look his most serious and journalistic, Leon invites Biff to sit down in the chair opposite him. And despite some misgivings, Biff eventually does so. LEON Okay, we haven't got a set and I'm pretty sure I used to have a funny pre-amble but I haven't done one of these in about a year so, uh, let's skip all that and get right down to business shall we? Climate change. A real political hot potato. Biff... catch. BIFF ... LEON Talk. BIFF Well, as I was going to say before you interrupted me, climate change is an issue the world cannot neglect again. The message must be re-iterated time and time again, never to be forgotten or considered a fad. No matter how many awards or acknowledgements visonaries like ourselves recieve, we should not be taken for granted, just as this planet should not be taken for granted. Scientists estimate that within the next 30-40 years, the world's global average tempera... Leon yawns, loud enough to be picked up by the microphone in his hand which is a little embarrassing. LEON Uh... Biff. Can I BUTT in there? Yeah, uh... that 30-40 years you were talking about? I was kinda hoping to get over to a bar with Maggie somewhere in and around that time period. So how about this, could you maybe for brevity's sake kinda sum up the issue of climate change in 10 words? BIFF You want me to condense the greatest threat to the fate of our humanity in centuries into a 10 word sentence? LEON If you could, yeah. A disbelieving Biff wipes a hand across his face. BIFF This is the exact kind of disrespect I'm talking about. Nobody is taking this issue seriously and I'm sick of it. It's evident, I need something to MAKE you people respect me. And since there are no Nobel Peace Prizes in the OAOAST, I am making it my goal as of this moment to go after the next best thing. Soon, all the OAOAST will respect me. They'll have no choice, once I, Biff Atlas, obtain the OAOAST World Heavyweight Championship! LEON :mellow: :huh: :lol: As Leon struggles and fails to keep a straight face and starts to burst into laughter, he's joined by thousands of Georgians in the crowd. Which of course leaves Biff fuming. Kicking his chair aside, Biff suddenly swings down an arm and cracks the doubled over Leon across the back with a forearm! Leon goes sprawing to the canvas as quickly, referee Mike Chioda gets the chairs from the ring and calls for the bell. *DINGDINGDING!* COLE A cheapshot from Atlas and this one is finally underway! COACH How can you call that a cheapshot? Breaking down laughing at Biff's lifelong aspirations and dreams, that's a cheapshot! Biff continues to pound away on Leon who it's safe to say hasn't got much to laugh about anymore. Reaching down, Biff pulls off the black and purple robe of his opponent, throwing it to the ground in frustration. He then pulls Leon to his feet, barging him back into a corner and unloading with a succession of hard right hands. Referee Chioda tries to pull Biff away as he completely blanks his attempts to count him, eventually getting The Environmental Activist to stop his vicious attack. "LE - ON!" "LE - ON!" "LE - ON!" "LE - ON!" Out of the corner, Biff whips Leon off in the direction of the opposite set of turnbuckles. The Silky Smooth One hits hard spine first, staggering out of that corner and into the waiting Gorilla Press of Biff Atlas... ...which he escapes from in mid-air. Creating some space with a quick shove, Rodez pops up and dropkicks Atlas in the back, sending him sprawling forwards. Biff falls throat-first across the middle rope and unfortunately for him, there he stays. The crowd erupt as Rodez sees his chance and starts to do THE JIG~! Rodez then hits the opposite ropes and sprints back at top speed directly at Biff, driving all of his body weight into the lower back!! COLE CALL THAT BITCH BOJANGLES!! Turning away, Leon hits the ropes again and this time comes at Biff from the side. But Biff spots Leon on his way around, managing to throw out his arm and LEVEL Leon with a giant Clothesline to cut him off! "BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" COLE Big shot from the supposed King Of The Clothesline. There's a moniker for ya. Sitting up, a shocked looking Leon gasps for air just as Biff drives the flat of his boot into his spine. And again, further knocking the wind out of his lungs. Biff stops for a second and draws a large, imaginary globe with his hands, to the jeers of the crowd. COACH Are these morons booing THE EARTH? Do they not realise we live... on THE EARTH? COLE They're booing Biff Atlas, Coach. COACH Because he loves The Earth? Explain. Please. No time for explanations, as Biff pins down Leon with a tight lateral press... 1... 2... No! ...again... 1... 2... No! Biff slaps on a chinlock, making Leon expend more energy. Which is pretty ironic when you think about it. And irony is best when explained. As Biff clamps down on the hold, a picture-in-picture suddenly pops in the top right corner of the screen, showing D*LUX, Jade Rodez and a certain Maggie Nerdly watching on backstage. COLE Leon with plenty of fans, both out here and backstage. He's fighting for them right about now as Biff Atlas works away with this hold. And as you see Maggie Nerdly there, it's as good a time as any to point it out, October 31st at The Halloween Spectacular, we've just found out Leon will be hosting a special edition of The Love Shack with none other than [i]Melody[/i] Nerdly, in her first TV appearance since November Reign. COACH Let's not get ahead of ourselves Michael. He might not have much Love to Shack if Biff has his way here. Fighting to his feet, Leon starts to draw on the support of the Columbus crowd, fist pumping as the fans grow louder. Locking his hands, Leon jams the point of his elbow into the gut. And again. A third time, weaking up Biff's grip enough to turn into the hold. Having freed himself Leon then turns to hit the ropes... but a handful of his hair can't follow him, due to it being grabbed by Biff Atlas! Down on the back of his head crashes Rodez, earning Atlas a warning from the referee. COLE Biff Atlas, very resourseful. COACH LOLPUN11!!1 As Leon pulls himself back up, Biff stalks him just waiting to pounce. He grabs him in a tight waistlock and throws, bringing his 220 pounds down onto Leon's 220 pounds with a Side Belly To Belly Suplex! Leg hooked... 1... 2... Kickout! Pulling Leon to his feet, Mother Nature's Favourite Son applies another waistlock, this time trying to just squeeze the life out of The Silky Smooth One with a simple buf effective Bearhug. Leon wants very little of that though and manages to free an arm, driving the point of his Bionic Elbow down across the top of Biff's head! Twice! Three times! Biff loses the Bearhug and Leon just keeps on elbowin', bionic elbowing Biff into a stuppor before flippin', floppin', flyin'... and knocking down Biff with a final big elbow to the bonce! DUSTY RHODES Now baybeh, das en'ertainment right there, ain't no doubt about it! COLE ????? Running on a healthy dose of adrenaline, Leon encourages Biff back to his feet and meets him coming with a jab! A jab! A jab! A jab! Rodez turns, blowing the kiss, before turning back on his heels... *SMACK!* ...and nailing Atlas upside the head with the enziguri! "YYEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH!!" COLE MAMA SAID KNOCK YOU OUT! Cover by Leon... 1... 2... NO! Not all! Quickly Leon scampers over to the corner and heads for the top turnbuckle. Biff is looking more than a little dazed and takes his time getting up, as Rodez scales the ropes and gets himself set up top. And then, with photo-opping form he soars from high above with a big Crossbody Blo... ...NO! Biff sidesteps, forcing Leon to adjust in mid-air. With cat like senses he just about manages to land safely on a hand and two feet, adjusting and diving at Biff again. But this time, his standing crossbody attempt ends with him getting caught! COACH Power! Throwing Rodez up and over his shoulder, Biff turns into the centre of the ring and drills him with a big Powerslam! The crowd groan as it looks like their man is in trouble, the Man Of The Earth reaching out and hooking a leg... 1... 2... No! COLE Kickout by Leon but you can sense Biff is beginning to build up some momentum here. Backing into a corner, Biff glares across at Leon... and drops into a crouch. COACH You can say that again. Biff starts waving Rodez to his feet, The Silky Smooth One unwittingly doing just as he's told. Biff is ready. Eyes locked on his target. Stalking his prey. Favouring his ribs a little, up to his feet climbs Leon with a grimace. He looks around and doesn't see Biff, who still stalks behind him, until Leon begins to turn around at which point he charges from the corner, head down... ...AL GOOOOOOOOORRRRRR... ...NO!! Rodez hears his opponent thundering towards him and takes off, leapfrogging Biff who ends up crashing face and shoulder first into the middle turnbuckle behind the now departed Leon!! "YYEEEEEAAAAAHHHHH!" COLE Nobody home for the Nobel Peace Prize Winner Honouring "Al Goooorree"! And Biff is in trouble here. Stumbling to his feet, Biff walks right back past Leon who has stepped out in front of him. Hooking the head, Leon scales the turnbuckles on the inside and pushing up off the top turnbuckle, floating back and dropping Biff with the FEEDBACK THIS~! he slices some bread! Reaching up he hooks the legs and cradles Biff up in a tight ball for the... 1... 2... and 3!!! *DINGDINGDING!* "YYYEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAHHHHHHHH!" BUFFER Ladies and gentlemen, your winner of the match... "SILKY SMOOTH" LLLEEEEEOOOOOONN... RRRROOOOOODDEEEEEZZZZZZZZ!!!! Leon rolls right on out of the ring and into the waiting arms of his fans as in the ring, Biff looks up and holds his head in his hands. A few high-fives and a few hugs get passed around, one lucky youngster getting a kiss on the cheek (not that young... and a girl... don't go getting the wrong impression here) as Rodez celebrates chalking one up in the 'W' column. COLE Victory here for the 6-Man Tag Team Champion, one-third at least, Leon Rodez tonight on HeldDOWN~! As Biff continues to look on in dejection, Leon takes back his belt and raises it to his fans with a big grin on his face.

Backstage we go, to the boss' office where AngleSault is busy running over the schedule for the night with one of the many backstage underlings of the company. His conversation is interrupted though as OAOAST World Champion Landon Maddix, along with manager Megan Skye, walk into the room. The lowly worker makes a quick exit as AngleSault raises an eyebrow to Landon. ANGLESAULT Landon, glad you could make it. MADDIX Uh, Megan. Is... is it me or did it just get sarcastic in here? If that was a jab at me for being late then, well, you know how it is. Business to take care of. ANGLESAULT Ah yes. I guess I should congratulate you, Mr. Commissioner. Grinning at merely being referred to as that, the new SWF Commissioner wraps an arm around Megan's shoulder. MADDIX Ever thought of getting yourself an assistant? MEGAN Co-commissioner. MADDIX Huh? Uh, yes, that. Sorry, slip of the tongue. So, anyway. Who knows, maybe we'll be working in a different capacity in the future, Commissioner and... 'co-commissioner' to... uh, President? General Manager? What are you anyway? ANGLESAULT Well there's really no title. Frivilous things like that aren't important to me. And no offence but we haven't had the best of dealings with the SWF in the past, as I'm sure you're aware. MADDIX Yeah and The Cadillac Boys and The 70s Dude won ALL the gold at our place. :rolleyes: ANGLESAULT That's really besides the point. Proud of your new position as I'm sure you are, I'm not here to talk about that to you. MADDIX Me neither actually. Look, I've only just got here and I've been on my cellphone all afternoon so it's possible my brains are pretty scrambled right now. But, I overhead something as I was walking in. What's this about Todd Cortez... getting a World Title shot tonight!? Because, if that's the case, you'd better have a quick re-think with your little unnamed authority group. I'm not booked to compete tonight and Megan assures me, you can't force me into anythi... Anglesault chuckles under his breath. ANGLESAULT Don't panic Landon. MADDIX Who's panicking!? I'm just saying, I beat Cortez, he shouldn't be in li... ANGLESAULT Todd Cortez is going to get his shot at you November 25th as arranged. No, tonight, he's competing for the [i]International[/i] World Championship. And let me tell you, from speaking to him earlier, the man is just itching to get back into the ring after what you did to him in Hawaii. MADDIX Well that's super. ANGLESAULT Yes. It could very well be a clash of champions come November Reign. But, again, that's not what I wanted to call you in for. See, I can't force you into competing tonight, you're right. But I can force you to defend that title between now and November Reign. We want our World Champions to be fighting champions, to represent this company. There's been some talk that, now you're SWF Commissioner, you're not an ideal representative for this company. You competing for the SWF rather than for us last week just fuels that talk. So, I've organised a title defence for you on October 31st, to keep everybody happy. I've got Stephen Joseph Popick in my ear about wanting another match with you so you'll be facing him at the Halloween Spectacular. MADDIX To soften me up for PRL, like last time? AngleSault shrugs. ANGLESAULT That's down to you now isn't it? MADDIX Very true. No problem, I'm not surprised he doesn't trust PRL to get the job done to be honest. Honestly, I can't wait to see who you throw into the mix once I beat PRL... AGAIN... and Zack... AGAIN... and Cortez... AGAIN... at November Reign. ANGLESAULT Glad to see you're still feeling confident. MADDIX Hey, you just keep stacking the challengers against me and I'll keep coming out on top. Two guys, three guys, eight guys. Doesn't matter. I've proven it before, not one of those guys is good enough to take my title away from me and it'll be the same story come November Reign. Let's face it, Zack's old news around here. And as far as PRL and Cortez go... just between you, me and the wall, I don't think they're quite World Championship material. ANGLESAULT We might just see different tonight. MADDIX Yeah, we might. We might. Landon chuckles to himself and walks off, leaving AS to go back to his paperwork.

1. Toxxic stuck the card up before I'd finished them all 2. There's still matches to be added to the card 3. Ripping off ROH is fun

Lucius* I think I'm safe in saying it'll be... International World Championship Reject © vs. "The Urban Legend" Todd Cortez

I'm like you but my problem is, you never know what you're going to get. Unpredictability is good and everything but my problem with boxing and MMA is, how do you know you're going to get an actual fight? I'm not anti-MMA. I contemplated getting tickets for UFC 75 live and actually watched it at home. For all those who complain about the lack of wrestling on RAW, I swear there was literally under a minute's worth of actual fighting in the first half-hour of the event and I lost all interest after that. I'm happy enough watching an actual MMA fight but I'd never buy a live UFC PPV again for that reason.

-17/10- $10,000 Up For Grabs! Forget the bags full of candy, this Halloween it'll be a bag stuffed with ten thousand dollars up for grabs! After a reshuffling of the budget, Landon Maddix has stumbled upon some spare cash. The perfect reward for one lucky SWF superstar. "Contract negotiations don't usually work out too handily for the company," mused Landon, "I know mind sure didn't! But let's just say, we had to evaluate certain gaps in the budget. And we found a place to cut some costs. No wonder we were losing so much money with those sort of 'Commissionership bonuses' being dealt out every month. Of course, he doesn't need it anymore, so..." So, $10,000 dollars will be hung above the ring, with only one way to retrieve it... by climbing a Ladder! SWF newcomer Luke-O has impressed in his first few outings and will get a shot to not only make his accountant very happy but also make a big name for himself, against a returning face from the past. The lure of $10,000 has brought back JJ Johnson for All Hallows! Will Johnson walk away with the money or will Luke-O take his scalp and the cash? -17/10- A new beginning for the tag-team specialist As the card for All Hallows begins to take shape, another name has been confirmed for the historic rebirth event in Los Angeles. Former four-time SWF World Tag Team Champion Chris "Caveman" Raynor will be action. And, fittingly, it will be in tag team action. His opponents and partner are as yet unknown to SWF.com, but SWF Commissioner Landon Maddix has made it known one of the SWF's finest will feel right at home with it's new regime. "Myself and Chris were just beginning to form the makings of a great tag team," Landon told SWF.com, "but obviously now I'm out of in-ring action. That's kinda left Chris a little high and dry. I know Chris wants nothing more than another run at those World Tag Team Titles, not least because a certain Revolution Zero are currently holding them. And now, all the momentum he'd built up with me is for nought. So, I've promised... no, I've guaranteed him I'll make up for leaving him without a partner. I'm scouring the wrestling world to find him a new tag team partner and he will have one by Halloween night. It won't be Landon Maddix, but I can promise Chris, it'll be a Treat and not a Trick." Bad puns aside, will this new partner be the man to help lead Chris Raynor to a fifth Tag Team Title with a fifth different second man?

MMA huh? So a five minute video package, a fifteen minute intro and a 25 second KO? Isn't that The Undertaker's gimmick?
