Bruce Blank

it's a mystery *shifty eyes* Was he there to help Bruce? Was he there to attack Ghost Machine V2.0?? "All will be revealed" (in other words it was meant to be a little odd, it's a story in progress)

Karma - yes I'm sure it'll ring your doorbell and make you it's bitch soon enough. that's low, even for this place

wooooooooooo diagrams *marks out*

Quit stealing my strategy

Ah! But you forget, that's ALL that I rock at. Advantage, me. Yeah but now you'll try to slap on a Double spinning underhook elbow lock on the ladder instead to go with the "New Landon" moveset

“Slightly longer winded but in no way as detailed as last show” comments. - The Coyote / LDP / Justice angle just keeps twisting and turning and I’m liking it cause it’s not totally obvious where it’s going and what match other than Coyote/LDP we’re in for Way to build a feud and a character. - Welcome back Griffon! Here is a loss for your efforts That’s got to suck if you’re Arch, but a good win for Cross – if Griffon & Manson were still teaming I could see it turn to a good 2 on 2 match. I wonder if Griffon really IS returning actively or if it’s like Ramadomination where Arch laid down to Tim Dillon - Maddix throws a fit – and well frankly no one does it quite like Maddix (I mean that in a good way) and it seems to light a bit of fire under his ass which I think he’s needed. So bravo for providing the matches and the ass I hope 2006 is less “psychologically harmful” than 2005 I definitely see Maddix Vs Amy happening - Jimmy returns as well – welcome back Jimmy, have a loss as your “Welcome back prize”. Heff finally does something RIGHT and Skull finally wins even if the insertion of odd words and the use of a comedy referee leads me to believe that maybe, just maybe the Skull didn’t write the match Where this is going… I have no idea, but then again Doomtopian travel agents aren’t very logical. - Action Figures galore!! What other company has figures that’ll do a .8 Muta? And what kid doesn’t need a bottle opener? Primo fun stuff - Toxxic Vs IL – the Twilight Zone Edition! Miss Toxxic (who I’ll now and forever picture as Toxxic with a red bow – thank you for putting THAT image in my head) makes her debut and unlike the other “returnees” she actually wins (then again Mike didn’t leave the fed as such – so maybe he’s except to the “Job on return” rule) Good stuff and with the drawing later on this match suddenly takes a whole other dimension in the Bruce/IL feud that on reflection was awesome. And what can I say about the match? Have you ever seen a BAD match from Mike? cause I haven't and this didn't buck that trend in any way - Frost really is a bastard isn’t he? Bruce’s kind of bastard it would seem as the big man smokes a Frost-Brand© Cigar as they pay tribute to Monty Python (“Bring out yer dead”) - Jimmy gives… the most confusing and odd backstage promo I’ve seen since I gave up smoking weed (well I never started smoking weed but I never let the truth get in the way of a joke) That’s about all I can say - I thoroughly enjoyed the Zyon Cruiserweight title defense, good high speed action and I think a worthy follow up to JJJ’s reign. And since they’re stylistically it makes it seem fresher than if someone of the “JJJ” Mold had taken the belt – let’s hear it for diversity Match was teh awesomes and what more can I say? - Domo Arrigato Mr. Machino! Short but funny, V2.0 is getting all sorts of air time tonight *thumbs up* - IL is pissed No he’s mad No he’s INSANE!! And apparently Bruce put the bug up his ass (not literally – that’s just sick) with his arrogant ways. I can’t blame IL the Blank Man pisses everyone off to some extend – just ask Janus, he’ll tell ya Continuity issue: Bruce Blank has actually faced off against JJ. Johnson (Genesis VI) and won – but it was while IL was “dead” and I’m not sure they got cable where he was at back then. I liked the intensity, I could picture IL pacing back and forth in the ring, fuming as he just rips into Bruce. And of course the coward doesn’t show What a prick - Max gets a win over Tito 2006 in a good solid match that actually sees “The Icon” be a nice guy to Laberinto and encourage the youngster. Nice touch and it’s one of those little touches that could build with time. Interesting (and good match) - Joseph Peters has an announcement He’s really Vince Russo in disguise!!! Well no not really… at least that wasn’t the announcement he could be Vinnie Roo under a mask I guess but the big announcement is COMPETITION FOR THE TAG-TEAM CHAMPIONS!! WHOOOOOOOOOOO!! And for the first time too since… well since I’ve joined (it’s been a 2 team division with few blips). So applause for the idea and I’ve always liked the Lethal Lottery concept. So now in a tournament of “no quite clear rules” we’ll find 2 teams to challenge Max & Landon in a TLC match And the “randomly drawn” teams are (with my nicknames added in) Ced Ordonez & Laberinto – a.k.a. Team “Dead Meat” Stryke & Wildchild – a.k.a. “Wyld Strike” Archie Griffon & Jay Hawke – a.k.a. “Birds of Prey” Michael Cross & Akira Kaibatsu – a.k.a. “Asian Underground” Christian Fury & ??? – a.k.a. “Mysterious Fury” The Crimson Skull & Jason von Dierch – a.k.a. “The Fourth Reich” Todd Cortez & JJ Johnson – a.k.a.”Urban Fight Club” or “U.F.C.” Matt Myers & Ghost Machine – a.k.a. “Pentium Power!!” Spike Jenkins & Zyon – a.k.a. „The Fast and the Furious“ Insane Luchador & Kevin Coyote – a.k.a. “The Insane Dawgs“ Amy Stephens & Bruce Blank – a.k.a. “Beer Fueled Aggression” Jimmy the Doom & Manson – a.k.a. “Mansontopia” I see some teams that could be really strong and some that may last beyond the tournament as well. This will be very interesting. - More LDP/Coyote – a beat down and more to come *DUN-DUN-DUUUUUUUUUUUN!* - Matt Myers makes his backstage debut hoping to suck less on the mic than in the ring (hoping but failing) 1 thing of interest for future Bruce Blank opponents & partners. The heavy metallic brace that Bruce has a doctor’s note on is staying for a while, even though it’s later revealed that Bruce was faking the knee injury he still has the correct paper work to allow him to wear it – think of it as Owen Harts or Bob Orton’s cast (or Greg Valentine’s shin guard if you’re familiar with that angle) And just to clarify – only the knee injury was faked, the left hand and elbow, the ear, the forehead and the burns/cuts to his back are all still affecting him although the burns and all the cuts will probably be a non-factor after 1 more match. And then Bruce dismisses IL’s claims – that’ll put IL in a good mood - Bruce defends against GM 2.0 And retains holy crap! In my 10 title match I retain once again (I counted the entire “best of 5” series as 1 title defense) and against one of my favorite characters too. I’m honestly surprised and stunned that I did that (unless it was Vs a no-show I suppose) No more horn tooting! - Cortez & Akira have a REALLY bad day – a double no show that makes everyone a sad panda Maybe Akira hasn’t recovered from when he done been blowed up? - Hmmmmm after the announcement we’ve got 3 matches in a row… well 2 and a no show, did we run out of promos? - I am an ELM mark – no two ways about it, I’d buy the t-shirt and the foam Mexican flagpole if I could. Beautiful match, beautiful way to continue the longest ever World title reign and now Wes Vs ELM is in the books How’s that a bad thing?? Will JJJ apologize on Smarkdown as his agreement? Or will he be “El Rudo~!!” and Welch on it? Whatever he does – he’ll do it as an established main eventer though.! And again – a beaut of a match. - Ah post-show promo Justice is fired for setting up the Coyote beat down – *shifty eyes* or did he set it up? I guess we’ll have to tune in and find out? --------- This was an excellent show that really had 1 “low light” and like 8 billion high lights, CF, Aftershock and now Lockdown the SWF are turning it up to 11. Awesome!

Even if GM showed how could he compete with the new Ghost Machine V2.0 theme song? (from the soon to be shown Japanese mega-manga-monster hit "Ghost Machine V2.0: Defender of the harddrive" "Ghost Machine, Ghost Machine He's an ass kicking Machine" "Throws a foe, any size Pokes opponents in the eyes Look out! Here comes the Ghost Machine-ah! " "Is he strong? Listen bud He's got an artificial bod! " "Can he leap from the rope And land on a dope Hey there! There goes the Ghost Machine VEEEEE TWOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO-AH!! " I mean I had it at “He’s got an artificial bod” (just kidding) Oh and this: "HEY AMY I FOUND TOXXIC HE WAS BEHIND THE COUCH!!!" Gold *thumbs up*

I take it with a 1-2 show push then it's not actually a "round robin" tournament as such right? unless I misunderstand the "round robin" concept each team would have to face ALL of the other teams? or are we divided into 2 divisions where we'll just have to face 5 other teams and the points winner in each goes to From the Fire?? Excellent idea btw *thumbs up*

41. He stole Black Scorpion's 1990 Starrcade "Space ship" entrance for the Rumble but managed to make it "Not cool" 42. He screetches like a money to show that he's "fired up" 43. John Cena "Street Fighter"... my ass

I think it's a real shame that you've done a complete overhaul to Maddix just to write "SWF" matches cause the individualism is just lost if everyone does the same type of match. Which is one reason why I'm going the total opposite way - I saw the fed and saw all these small cruisers with top technical skills and all and thought "This place needs variety" - so enter a big brawler who just ain't that smart, who just ain't that polished in the ring but has other ways to get the job done. If we have no variety then it'll be harder to tell the matches apart, there'd be no chance to write "big man Vs little man" matches, no styles clashes or anything like that that would challenge the writers styles as well as their talents.

I've actually overtaken Fallout for 2nd place with 157 days so far - something that continues to blow my mind

So - with fear and trepidation I got to ask - "what is Ryan Dustin Territory"??

Man I was so disappointed that the line "they call me..." wasn't continued with "Tatersalad!" (A joke for Ron White fans only but still there are a few of us) The plot thickens *shifty eyes*

I had to make sure I hadn't read her description wrong and thought of someone else - that would have been embarrasing. Peters - sexist (well maybe more like "limited in his views on women to be precise) that works for me *thumbs up*

and then again he'll have a long list of people HE has caused severe amounts of pain whether he beat them or not Of course being the lone wolf he'll come up short in most number games

With Ben being "promoted" who will handle backstage interviews? Matt "Clark Kent" Myers maybe? well barring a loud, resounding "NO" from CC that's who I'll use in my pre-match promo

When I first started in the SWF I’d give detailed feedback on most shows, but well I hadn’t been there for a that long and got a ”What’s this newbie talking about” vibe now and again so I just stopped. But well 26 matches in I’m in a better position I suppose so here goes. Opening Promo ELM out to brag about winning at CF (I don’t blame him I would too ) bags on JJJ and how he didn’t kill him like he said and then starts up on Wes Only to be interrupted by the guy he just SNEAKED by at CF – Mr. JJ himself. Long (well Medium length) story short: It’s ON for Lockdown!! Title match, apology and everything. My take: Strong promo, good build for the a match I DEFINITLY want to see. But with just 5 more shows before “From the Fire” I felt it was a little “Wes Davenport Deficient” Recap of ClusterFuck Part 1 No feedback on recaps Match 1: Michael Cross Vs Jason Von Dierch With a good debut match under his belt Cross comes up against competition (Well theoretically as JVD hasn’t turned in a match since some time November I think) so let’s see how it goes. Ced is a crowd favorite? Man SWF fans have no taste both King and Pete point out how Cross destroyed Ced on the last show – which is kinda odd as few people in the federation tends to get praise from BOTH Pete and King at the same time (Last guy I remember is TORU, but he was such a swank tweener that he could do it) I’m impressed that JVD can step under the THIRD rope (isn’t that the bottom one?) but don’t mind me that’s just something that struck me as a funny mental image. Jason draws blood waaaaaaaaaaaaay to easily in the match unless Cross is secretly has a condition where he bleeds after a couple of punches (unless it’s re-opening an old cut which should have been stated) the quick appearance of blood without much work takes the drama out of such a spot IMO. It’d be different if JVD was known for his chops and had chopped other people’s chests to blood in the past. I liked the innovative escape from the “Iron Curtain” – it was early enough in the match for Cross not to be too worn down to run with JVD on his back. Although that’s a might quick bounce back from an unprotected dive to the floor, unless Cross had JVD break his fall by landing on top of him (But that wasn’t written specifically) After the splash on JVD it’s actually the guy taking the move (and the beating on the outside up till then) that gets in the first show?? Also no referee count as JVD destroys Cross on the floor, could have been explained in several ways so that it didn’t seem like the referee just “forgot” Jason keeps up the ass kicking and beats down a very bloodied Cross before being denied a 3 count which stuns the crowd (and rightly so cause Cross sold like he had been shot) Cross gets a short burst of offense before both of them go down side by side – stopped at 7 as BOTH get up at the same time. Which means Cross’ 2 moves did about as much damage to JVD as the beating JVD laid on Cross – hmmm. Von Dierch kicks out of a “not hit 100%” version of Cross’ finisher, nice touch to show how he was too weak to execute it to perfection and then allow Von Dierch to kick out of it (if he had lost there he’d be a total bitch – good job of not doing that ) Good hard hitting action follows until Cross plays superman and lifts Von Dierch up into the air in a suplex position for a good 20 seconds while staggering around before hitting a sloppy and potentially dangerous Brainbuster That JVD no sells! That bastard! (he’s up before Cross? ) A ref bump later and the CROWD counts as the heel covers the face? I got to break out the “Huh” face again also for the term “tweener” used on JVD’s actions. I wonder if Cross is a comic book fan “not like this… not like this” just cracked me up (intentionally?) And the finish! After taking a lot of punishment Cross turns it around and in ONE move takes out his opponent for the hard fought win. Post Match Shenanigans: Akira & Kobe are out and the face Michael Cross reacts with distrust towards the face Akira? (Unless Cross has a DTA attitude I’m not sure if that makes sense) then Akira & Cross go from looking like they’re ready to go at it to shaking hands and having their tag-team name emblazoned on the big screen. A lot of my comments may look bad, but all in all this was a pretty good match, I just tended to focus on giving you comments that could help you develop in the SWF so don’t take it as me shitting all over the match, it was an enjoyable read and most of my comments are nitpicking or me saying ”well I would have done it another way” Recap of ClusterFuck Part 2 No feedback on recaps Promo #2 Bruce’s injuries are listed and then he talks trash with an offhanded remark at the end that seems to be the spark that lit the fire under IL’s ass Which is good otherwise no comments on my own stuff Promo 3 Sweeping at Glory: the Ricky McMasters’ story AWESOME! That was totally hilarious and on some levels actually something that I could see Hollywood turn out – it’d get play on the Hallmark channel Cuba Gooding Jr’s finest hour *thumbs up* hilarious. Recap of ClusterFuck Part 3 No feedback on recaps Promo 4 Jimmy the Doom is back – here to regale you with a sad, sad story about the Doomtopian war. Jimmy is a War Hero! Wes Davenport is slated to play him in the film. Welcome back JtD, glad to see you bring the comedy with you. Promo 5 Miss Toxxic signs with the SWF!! Only she’s being offered a Diva contract by Peters and is rightly so a bit PO’ed. I don’t remember the details from her last appearance but she wasn’t exactly described as having that “diva” look from what I remember – but Peters wants her on the “Diva” plan anyways ?? Either Peters is stupid and thinks this chick will sell swimsuit calendars or he’s a masoginistic pig who just wants her to go to the kitchen and fetch her a sammich. The logic behind that totally escapes me. And then she’s taken for a gimmick fitting… but hold on!! Did she sign the contract? Nope – so why go for a gimmick fitting and all if she’s not signed? “huh” count in promo: 2 Match 2: Joshi Dragon Vs Matt Myers the Dragon makes her return to active competition after being away for a while and she takes on everyone’s favorite imitator Matt Myers who tonight is the dashing, the brave Scarlet Pimpernel. Matt is apparently a “promising newcomer”? that’s news to me and probably to Matt too Matt is also menacing (trust me it’s said enough time to establish that he’s menacing) and a heel, which could partially be blamed on the lack of Matt Myers profile in the stats thread *Glares at creative* No selling of the “Scarlet Pimpernel” gimmick none other than the use of the nickname, which makes me sad – that’s what sets Matt apart from everyone else, he’s not just a generic jobber. “Lateral aspects”? Alright initial shenanigans over with the match can start *thumbs up* leg work from Joshi showing us that she has tiny, tiny feet as one of her drop kicks just hits Matt’s kneecap and nothing else. Of course the leg of Matt soon recovers and he fights back like she never touched him. Now I’m no expert on “Railgun Suplexes” but from GM V2.0’s description I didn’t get the impression that it started like a belly to back suplex. A missed swandive and a buzzsaw kick to the head should leave Matt feeling sore in the neck as the Joshi Dragon takes over – getting the old “Mo” swinging (and I don’t mean the chick on EastEnders… neither of them) in fact Matt is in so much pain that he doesn’t realize that the standing Christo could be countered with a Samoan Drop (but that’s wrestling logic for you it actually works in the match) Oh woops I spoke too soon, after falling to his knees he gets back up and DOES land the Samoan Drop – not a very effective move if he can be in it for that long and just get back up again or maybe that’s because Candace just ain’t that strong? Being down for an 8 count off the Samoan drop sells the move so well you’d think the Samoan who did it was Yokozuna and not little Matty Myers. I just didn’t feel the “drama” of it coming off a Samoan Drop. A side headlock – called a “Punishing old” and causes Pete to call Myers a “Sadist” – the same man that’s watched so many Hardcore matches where people blow up or weedwhack each other calls a reapplied side-headlocker a “sadist”? And the win comes off the victory roll – nice “Underdog pulls it out” finishing sequence as she beats the odds against our resident level jobber. Selling was spotting and I didn’t really feel the Pete/King commentary ever rose above “generic banter”. Recap of ClusterFuck Part 4 No feedback on recaps Promo 6 Chris Fury promo with “Director’s cut” pre- and prologue. I really enjoyed the insight into Fury, the parts before and after really made the interview in between mean so much more – cause the interview itself came off “okay” if a bit generic, but the parts around it is what made it really click. This promo told me one thing: “Chris Fury is a match to watch” and that’s a good thing Promo 7 The Ghost Machine (BOO) I mean Ghost Machine V2.0 (Yay!) Proving once and for all that bug fixing and improved performance makes the end users happy – also strikes a blow for not releasing a product before it’s been thoroughly debugged cause V1.0 was awfully buggy. Like the skates bit and the ”cover up” by Pete And V2.0 wants Bruce Blank!! On a personal level I marked because I’ve been a big fan since V2.0 was released and I look forward to the match. Short and to the point, next show is hyped, the Ultraviolent challenger isn’t ”out of the blue” and there is a bit of mystery about the ”Malfunction” Hint: the malfunction is that he bleeds instead of leaking oil. (I made that up if you didn’t already know) Promo 8 And ELM’s awesome performance at the ClusterFuck gets him the greatest honor ever percieved. Having Taco Bell name something after him: El BurriTaco Magnifico! And apparently Matt Myers just isn’t full until ELM helps him. Funny stuff – but damn you it just makes me sad when I remember that there are no Taco Bells in Denmark and that’s some good eatin’ Recap of ClusterFuck Part 5 No feedback on recaps Promo 9 “Company of Honorably Banding Brothers” Take every war movie ever known, throw them in a blender and you have CoHBB. I thought the first movie spoof was funnier, but that’s not to say this wasn’t funny, cause it was. Promo 10 TEN!! Holy fucking shit! Kevin Coyote’s dirty secret – another chapter in the very interesting story of the young rookie trying to make it in SWF. And this is the BIG ONE! Kevin Coyote tells everyone that his father is – LONGDOGGER PETE OMMFG!! And Kevin even has a father’s day present for him: Brass knucks to the head!! A home run! Great promo, great way to take the next step and yes Coyote is definitely on his way to becoming one of the most hated men in the SWF right now. *thumbs up* Match 3: Insane Luchador Vs Crimson Skull Main event time and IL returns from the dead – funny I thought Vince McMahon was the devil yet he let IL go to the SWF? King is joined by Ben Hardy and Bobby Riley (who’s a complete unknown to me character wise) to sell the beating, nice touch of continuity. The Insane one is back and so is “Excalibur” (does that mean IL is a descendent of King Arthur??) and it’s just his kind of match to boot! Someone must like IL… and he’s down south. What does the word “Whiff” mean? I’m serious I thought it was a sound effect here at first but it’s an actual word for something other than “get a whiff of this”?? Steel beats glass and then steel beats IL’s ass and everything is right in Villain-world as Skull gets a’stomping! Well he gets a’pinning… for one… then a knee to the head. Tell you the truth that’s not much “a’stomping” – dang! Man that IL is tough!! He gets a bundle of light tubes broken over his back and he just turns around? Maybe that’s how they say hello where IL is from? DDT on the shard covered chair!! *Nod of approval from the King of Pain* And that’s it – Skull just doesn’t cut it in the Hardcore environment it would seem as IL makes a successful return. Shame it was short is about the only really negative thing I can say. Promo 11 Holy crap I thought we finished at 10 Skull threatens Heff with a pink slip and tells him that he needs to help out more, be a better evil henchman Oh and to get him a title shot (If I retain against GM then step into my office and we’ll talk turkey) Foreshadowing!! Nice one *thumbs up* 11 Promos and 3 matches Sadly we didn’t even touch on the Max/Landon feud (Is that still ongoing or did it just fizzle into a tag-team title run?) nor did it touch on Hawke/WC or Spike Zyon But hopefully that will be rectified at Lockdown. See I told you details to follow – and I will try to do a detailed feedback to each show (time permitting)

1) Who are you, and what have you done this year? I’m Bruce Blank “King of pain” and top dog in the Ultraviolent division. I’ve only been here since just after Ground Zero last year so I’m still quite a newbie in many ways. I’ve won the Hardcore title in my 2nd match and held on to it for 156 days so far, I’ve renamed the title to “Ultraviolent” and apparently been convincing enough in all my title defenses to cement the name as everyone calls it that these days. I beat JJJ at Genesis VI, lost to Janus at “Ashes 2 Ashes” and then been embroiled in my first long term feud with Akira that I’ve just finished. And I helped kill “Family Friendly Lockdown” And shown for every single match I’ve been booked it – after 26 matches I’ve yet to no show. 2) What do you think of CC and their work at this time? A bit back it seemed somewhat disorganized with stuff just thrown together but the ducks seem to be lining up now, a good consistent team where everyone does their bit helps with that. Booking wise I’ve got no complaints as such, the feuds tend to be considered – but outside the feuds there don’t seem to be much in “medium” term booking though, although there are hints that it could change The Ghost Machine calling Bruce out promo that actually set up the match on the next show – I liked that, give a match that’s technically out of nowhere a bit of a build. Not that every match, every week should be built on the show preceeding it, but one or two could be each show. (I guess that’s more for #5 about suggestions) 3) What do you think this fed's strongest suit is? I’m not going to say “technical wrestling” because I think the biggest thing this fed has going for it are some really talented and creative writers, who when motivated blows me away in terms of skill. 4) What do you think the fed's weakest suit is? It’s weakest features are: 1) that “Technical wrestling” seems to be the dominant style and what gets you to the top. Not that “Technical wrestling” is bad, far from it – but it seems to be the style that all the main eventers employ, the style that gets ahead. I’m with people who say “more comedy” – I love to write a good comedy match, I've written a ton of comedic matches for another fed where I'm part of the CC. But I don’t any more – not after a Bruce Blank / Jimmy the Doom match I wrote got slapped down for being “too comedic” I mean with JIMMY THE DOOM? How can it NOT be comedic?? After that I figured “Comedy bad!!” and just kept it to very limited comedy spots. /end rant 2) Something that seems to be changing, few long term feuds being built. Before the feud with Akira I kinda drifted from match to match, maybe with a 2-3 match mini story but that was it. It had no real emotion, no real sense of “big” – the only reason I could write a match that so many people have said “Man that was awesome” is because it had a good build and could play off that so well. We’re starting to see more of it but it’s something that could improve 5) Do you have any suggestions for changes in how we run things? As I mentioned in section 2: Put a little bit of forethought into the next show when putting the current show together – this current Lockdown seems a bit more stacked and a bit more special because 2 of the matches had their foundation laid down on AfterShox – if there was that kind of ground work put into 2-3 matches each show then I think it’d help increase the overall interest and excitement Union Rep: Nah if I have an issue I want to discuss I go straight to CC, no need for a middle man if you ask me. 6) Overall, do you like the direction the fed is headed in? Yes I do – the federation feels a lot stronger than the stretch between Ashes 2 Ashes and Ramadomination, we’ve got an AWESOME main event program with ELM/Wes/JJJ and the 3 singles titles are all embroiled in some sort of long term storyline and even the non-title guys (Won’t call you guys lower card) are building some interest. More of that

No, he didn't. He did as of the moment I posted the card. Understand? -Z Just nod and go "Yes Vince", it's the only thing to do when he gets like that

MAIN EVENT WORLD TITLE BOUT, SUBMISSION MATCH El Luchadore Magnifico© vs JJ Johnson SPECIAL GUEST COMMENTATOR: Wes Davenport I'm so glad to see JJJ not just get a "one night stand" against ELM but that he's granted a rematch, that being said I'm thinking that we may just see a 3 way at "From the Fire" as JJJ defends against both the former champ and the #1 contender SINGLES MATCH "The Divine Wind" Akira Kaibatsu vs Todd Cortez Cortez hasn't been seen much "in character" lately while Akira has gained a lot of momentum. I think Akira could pull off the upset. HARDCORE TITLE BOUT Bruce Blank© vs Ghost Machine 2.0 Prediction: One of these will not walk out with the title unless there is an accident with an Acyteline torch. MAJOR ANNOUNCEMENT! Joseph Peters is mad!! things have to change!! He's goes over the edge and starts to screw with Shawn Michae... erm... as long as it's not "WWE Stupid" I can dig it. SINGLES MATCH Laberinto vs "The Icon" Max King King has been on fire since returning - Laberinto came in nicely but hasn't been putting up much of a show since so Max takes it. CRUSIERWEIGHT TITLE BOUT, TRIPLE THREAT Zyon© vs Kevin Coyote vs Christian Fury Good booking - will the Spike/Zyon feud play a factor? I could see it enter into the picture and Kevin wins the match (but not the title) SINGLES MATCH Amy Stephens vs Insane Luchador Ressurected Insanity Vs "A girl" Well he beat death for the love of puddin' - short of marriage what can't he beat? I'll go with IL SINGLES MATCH Jimmy the Doom vs The Crimson Skull Prediction: Bwa-ha-ha-ha-ha-ha OPENING BOUT SINGLES MATCH Archie Griffon vs Michael Cross Never seen Arch and what he can do - last time he "returned" it was as Job boy to Tom Dillon, this time will be no different .... maybe ... possibly... potentially

Line of the promo right there and awesome stuff - glad you put in a contingency in case I lose to GM doesn't hurt that Blank is a real asshole and can easily cause this level of dislike, I've done my job right *thumbs up* and yes this was on my list of "Dream Angles"

Comments #1) "WOOO" and may I add "HOOOOO", this will be awesome fun - I hardly get a chance to flex my comedy muscle as well as my "ultraviolent".. erm muscle (yeah that didn't end as well as I thought) Ghost Machine V2.0 - time to break out all my IT lingo, being in IT for 7 years finally pays off Win or lose no one can say I just sat on the title without defenses - which I'm proud off. Comment #2) That's 2 characters I picked to be replaced (and why I gave Dillon & TORU such non-descript "Fuck" showings, I had a feeling) Comment #3) Talk about a main event - OOOOOOOOOOH YEAH!! I'd say SWF is building some momentum early in '06, gotta love that.

Great show - details to follow

Now might be one of those times to change that. :-) I'd argue that... but that'd be counter productive

The Olympic Ice Stadium, Turin Italy A lone trumpet plays the Olympic theme in the background as the camera pans across the hockey rink where the Olympic Ice Hockey tournament is about to take place. There are no fans in the stands, no players on the ice – it’s all quiet. Then the quiet is broken as the Russian National team takes the ice for a practice session. As the highly skilled team skates around to warm up their starting lineup is displayed on TV screens all over the building A. Ivanovitch T. Ivanovitch O. Ivanovitch M. Ivanovitch S. Ivanovitch K. Ivanovitch After skating around for a moment or two they all stop and stare at the entrance as their opponents are making their way to the rink. In the dim light it’s impossible to make out the faces of their opponents but unlike the Russians these guys aren’t wearing hockey helmets but are instead wearing these black “lone ranger” style masks, even the guy that seems to be wearing a different mask underneath. A big brute of a player quickly adjusts his Calvinball jersey as the 6 men skate onto the ice and take their positions ready to play against the Russian National Team. When the captain of the team skates into the center circle we read the words “Luchadore Magnifico” across the back of his Calvinball jersey. The referee drops the puck for the face off. A. Ivanovitch quickly snatches it, but a second later El Luchadore Magnifico has slapped his opponents hockey stick out of his hands and then takes the Russian captain down with the fastest “Dia de los Muertes” this side of the Rio Grande *CRACK!!* T. Ivanovitch stops dead in his tracks, surprised by the sight of his captain being bounced off the ice, then a moment later he’s surprised as Ghost Machine V2.0 tackles him into the railing and quickly sets him up for a pile driver *THUD!* A cracked hockey helmet rolls across the ice. The Russian’s speed star O. Ivanovitch blasts past both ELM and Ghost Machine as he takes the puck and races up the track, sadly for him he didn’t expect Jay Hawke to take him down with the Chop Block of DOOOOOOOOOOOM!! Before showing him just who the “man” is by applying the Wing Span on the Russian as he presses Ivanovitch’s face into the ice. With 3 down the remaining Russian players try to signal each other to get the hell out of there but unfortunately for M. Ivanovitch he’s struck in the gut with a hockey stick, doubling over in pain. With the Russian in a vulnerable position Todd Cortez digs in his skates and builds up speed before targeting Mr. M RIOT ACT PLUS ON THE ICE!! S. Ivanovitch looks down and sees that the puck is laying at his feet and quickly takes off towards the opponent’s goal, he quickly ducks a hip check by Ghost Machine, swerves around a Jay Hawke defensive move and heads straight for the goal Only to be struck across the chest with a barbwire bat by Team SWF’s goalie, the big Bruce Blank who’s smoking a cigarette and wearing his cowboy hat on the ice. “Now that’s how you defend a goal – bitch!” Down to one player K. Ivanovitch knows he’s in trouble – but it’s not until he hears someone tugging on a rip cord that he knows just how much trouble he’s in. *K-chunk!* *K-Chunk!* *VRRRRRRRMMMMMRRRRMMMMMRRRRMMMMM!!* K. Ivanovitch looks up in horror as the shadow of a man with spiky hair and a very familiar gardening tool falls upon him. “Njet, Njet Nie Parne graessmaskin!” (”No, no not the wheed whacker”) *VRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRMMMMMRRRRMMMMMRRRRRRRRRRRRRMMMMM!!* Cut from the scene to a shot of pristine, white ice That’s quickly splattered with blood as the unfortunate Mr. K screams.
