A quality event overall that delivered on multiple levels, with some titles defended, some contenders set and a good night to be had for fans of hardcore action. --- RESULTS PEWA x Highway Outlaw Wrestling: Hardcore Entropy 8:00 PM (CT) on Friday, September 4th at the Charles Sumner Gymnasium in Washington, DC Main Event: PEWA Extreme Title Bout Kevin Royce(Evergreen Wrestling)(C) vs. Bath Salts Zombie For a night with some surprising matches on the undercard, the main event comfortably delivered almost exactly what anyone would have expected from it. Kevin Royce built his customary chair pile. The Zombie bit him open early on and looked to work the cut over for much of the match. But this was not the zeroed in Zombie that earned the shot by cutting through Sir Vladimir Henry, and Royce made him pay for his lack of focus, planting the junkie with the ever-dangerous chokebomb for the win to retain his PEWA Extreme title. Highway Outlaw Wrestling Ruler of the Road Bout Texas Rose(C) vs. Fat Burner Fat Burner went toe to toe with Texas Rose. And while he may have won his own personal victory in making her sweat it out, the Ruler of the Road will continue to elude the fitness obesessed Burner, as Rose eventually pinned him with the Thorn of the Rose rollup after a back and forth battle. PEWA Extreme Tag Title #1 Contender Bout The Bingo Hall Mutants(Rampage Rage and Skullface Killah) vs. The Cruisers(Cruiser Jacobs and Cruiser Conrad with Cruiser Khan) Every bit the rough, unruly brawl that anyone would have expected out of this, and while the Cruisers held their own, the Mutants were a class above, working perfectly in tandem to deliver a double team finish with Skullface pinning Cruiser Jacobs and Rampage cutting off the save, earning a chance to regain their titles from the PEWA's Most Hated. PEWA Extreme Title #1 Contender Bout Sylvain "Pay Day" Mint vs. Victor Van Banning Mint and Van Banning were both in fine form here, with Van Banning dictating the pace of the match, but Sylvain Mint was not to be denied, repeatedly countering on the mat, never far behind, especially when he hit his Cash Cutter inverted brainbuster stunner to take the win and finally, after over twenty years, get his chance at the PEWA Extreme title. The Return of Luke Powers Luke Powers vs. Zanca This was supposed to be the grand return of the PEWA's most decorated star, the undisputed ace. And yet, Luke Powers seemed more than a step off against Zanca, an ignominious showing punctuated by a whiffed plancha to the outside, with Zanca eventually hitting his Ignition Spark springboard cutter to win a huge upset. Ruler of the Road #1 Contender Bout Big Clay Hurst(Wrestle Parade) vs. Annie Chang This was less of a match, and more of a demonstration of extraordinary will. Both Clay Hurst and Annie Chang brought their best, with Hurst repeatedly powerbombing and elbow dropping his foe, and Chang using every trick out of the Chang Family arsenal and from her fellow Wild Women in giving a spirited fight to her larger opponent. A Hasty Conclusion snap neckbreaker, a Wrangler Lock full nelson, a Chang Junior Special low blow into a Gedo Clutch and even the infamous And She Got the Upset! lifting twist complete shot all came up short, as did Hurst's high end offence. And while the big man was well out of steam by the half hour mark, one more Road Spike lifting thumb spike to the throat would be the deciding factor, despite Chang having kicked out of the move on repeated occasions earlier in the match. An outstanding performance. CCW Junior Heavy Cup Match Daniel Ness(Dwight Gym) vs. Cruiser Khan Cruiser Khan was back to his usual antics, repeatedly stabbing Daniel Ness with a spike and painting the ring with his blood. However, while Khan seemed intent on a victory by exsanguiation, Daniel Ness held on long enough to land a desparation low blow into a rollup to take the win, and to move onto the next round of the CCW Cup. CCW Junior Heavy Cup Match Hobo Harry vs. Dr. Trace Gibson Hobo Harry was in fine form, smoothly negating the bulk of the Doctor's attacks and imposing his own brand of acrobatics before finishing with a Shining Wizard to earn the chance to represent the PEWA in the CCW Cup at Golden Touch Promotions. --- Match of the Night: Big Clay Hurst vs. Annie Chang -An absurd, over the top display from both competitors here, with Chang's heart and Hurst's power both overcoming the former's inexperience and the latter's lack of cardio. Performer of the Night: Big Clay Hurst, Annie Chang -Both Hurst and Chang earned this one by going above and beyond in their match. --- Fat Burner: So, you're sure you're not going to weigh yourself? Texas Rose: Only weight that matters to me is this belt right here. The belt here, that's mine. Not yours. Which means I'm the champ. And because I'm the champ, I don't have to play along with your stupid games. Go eat some creatine or something, Burner. Burner: Shoot....I know she lost some weight in that match! But now I don't know how much... Rose: Look, I don't mean to be such an ass, but you have to tone that down, or you're going to make everyone want to stomp your face in. Like I kinda do right now. Good fight, in any case. That wasn't easy on me at all. I probably did lose some weight...but I'm still not letting you weigh me. Burner: Awww. Rose: But here's something. See who I have next time around? Big Clay Hurst, he hits harder than a sledgehammer, but he has zero cardio. He catches me when he's still got some energy, and I'm in trouble, real bad trouble. But what I want, is to see how I can wear him out first. And that's where you come into this. You know how to drag someone into deep water, make them sweat. It's your specialty. So, I'd like you at ringside, in my corner for this. Help me out with this, and I'll get Clay to lose more weight than anyone you've ever faced. We have a deal? Burner: Deal. --- Sylvain "Pay Day" Mint: Finally, after all these years. I never thought I'd be back in the ring again, let alone, fighting for the title. But here I am. Van Banning's no joke, and I'm fortunate I was able to read that match as well as I did, because I've seen what he's capable of otherwise. And now I'll have Kevin Royce. I'll talk about that matchup next time around, when we're closer to it, but all I want to say now is that I am acutely aware of just how tough this is going to be...but if I was still just in it for the pay check, I wouldn't be here trying to do this, would I? Let's see how this goes. --- Annie Chang: Damnit! So close! So many moves! SO many moves! Mina Fitsharris: You did see the doctors, didn't you? Annie: Um, doctors? Juliette Erving: I ain't gonna be the one to tell you to get all doctored up...but you seem a bit jacked up here, Annie. Annie: Clay, not Jack! Mina: We're getting you checked out, now! Annie: Nah! I'm just...really...really...pissed off...and tired...and sore...and did I say I was sore? Because I think my body hurts, like all of it. Juliette: You good to party? Annie: I dunno. Juliette: Then you're coming with us, to the medical roooom! (Note: The Senatorial Office officially stated that Annie Chang was not suffering from a concussion, just dehydration and heavy bruising.) --- Bernard Blackburn: This wasn't the best night for either of us. Luke Powers: Not for me. Blackburn: The Cruisers told me to work out with Fat Burner or I'm stuck on interview duty going forward. Powers: I lost to Zanca. Blackburn: Guess I'm gonna have to watch my diet, and take a little better care of myself...but I'll be damned if I do my workouts with Burner. That's not healthy advice for a man of my age! Powers: This was supposed to be my big return. I worked my ass off for months, I worked on a new finishing move, I got myself back into championship shape, after Young Blood put me down, I wasn't going to accept anything less! I was ready, I was more than ready to come back and be the man again! And then I lose to that skinny idiot. Blackburn: Has to hurt, I'm sure. Powers: Damn straight it does! All that work, and I go out there, literally fall flat on my friggin' face! I made a fool out of myself and now everyone sees me and knows that I'm beatable! Tracy Finn probably thinks he can beat me now! And the worst part, is that maybe he'd be right. Blackburn: Let's not get carried away. Powers: So, I'm going to have to start back up from the bottom rung of the ladder now. Here I am thinking I'm going to get myself a shot at Kevin Royce and bring my belt back home where it belongs, and I just take winning for granted. That's what that sort of stinking thinking does! No, I'm going to have to take a different route. I've been around here for a long time now, but I'm still not that old! Blackburn: You've still got some treads on those tires. Especially compared to me... Powers: So maybe I look down a different route. But if I'm going to change things up that much, maybe I have a few calls to make. One call in particular could help me out quite a bit...yeah, that's what I'm going to do. Maybe the way forward is to take a step back into the past...

The Interim Dominican Golden Championship is on the line as the fallout of Warrior Pro's Warriorversary reaches Santana Family Wrestling, plus a #1 contender match for the TIPWF Lone Star Trios belts, the continuation of the CCW Jr. Heavy Cup and an array of notable guests and newcomers all feature on this card. Santana Family Wrestling x TIPWF: POWER for the Gold8:00 PM (CT) on Friday, September 11th, at the Public Square in Washington DC Main Event: Interim Dominican Golden Championship Bout El Froggy Mask(C) vs. Dungeon Dominguez(Lucha POWER)With El Macho having defeated Felix Santana Jr. at Warriorversary, the Lucha POWER honcho gained the privilege to name the next contender for the Interim Dominican Golden Championship. As a result, Dungeon Dominguez, who helped Macho earn his win, will be rewarded with a title shot against SFW legend, El Froggy Mask. The Notorious EFM will be making his first defense since defeating Felix Santana Sr. to become the Interim champion while Salvador Sosa recovers from his injuries. The chances for a clean match here are likely nil to none, with the increasingly nasty feud between El Macho and the Santana Family showing no signs of letting up. TIPWF Lone Star Trios Championship #1 Contender Bout Cogburn Ranch(Cowboy Johnston, Lil' Lariato and Generalissimo Kool Q with Duke Cogburn) vs. Blue Collar Brawlers(Lenny Broadway, Big Bubba Bob and Jimmy Jack Walker with The Everyman)With the Everyman out following his injury at the hands of Warrior Pro's Red Masterson, the Blue Collar Brawlers looked to get back in action with none other than the Drunken Master of Redneck-Fu, Jimmy Jack Walker. While Walker's work ethic is anything but fitting for the group, his drinking choices did fit in with the Brawlers, who will look for a chance at gaining the Trios titles, having first to go through an imposing team from the Cogburn Ranch. Johnston, Lariato and Kool Q are looking to get back on track despite setbacks in recent months. The Mallard(MWWC) vs. Misterio GuerreroThe MWWC's masked star will be well tested against the athleticism of the TIPWF's Misterio Guerrero, in a battle that very well could end up competing for match of the night honors at the very least. Guerrero is looking to prove himself worthy for a shot at Valentina Verda's TIPWF Lone Star title, while Mallard carries the CWC/MWWC banner with pride while the promotion takes a hiatus. Carmen Latour(Phoenix Rising) vs. Princesa TorbellinaThe Cajiun Spitfire makes her debut in the Office, going up against a fellow young prospect in Santana Family Wrestling's Princesa Torbellina. While Latour may not have made waves in the Big 50 tournament in her home organization, she has shown serious promise since her elimination and will be looking to leave a lasting impression on the Office's fans with this showing. Torbellina, although a consistently solid performer, has yet to reach her rival, Felice Santana's level, but a strong win could do well to help her in that regard. Jumperman vs. Felix Santana IIIThe protege of El Froggy Mask, Jumperman has been working across the American southwest and northern Mexico, gaining a reputation for his impressive agility and daredevil ways. He'll have a tremendous opportunity in his SFW televised debut against Felix Santana III, who has somewhat meandered in recent months, and will be looking to play the role of gatekeeper in his greeting for the newcomer. Rudo Army(Canadian Grizzly, Megan Chabot and Hijo de Macchiato) vs. Animal Farm(Gorilla Power, Lila Gila and Super Komodo)The team of Very Canadian and Macchiato will match up against the trio of the Animal Farm. The Rudos will likely seek to keep Gorilla Power out of the match as much as possible, with the former title contender easily serving as the Farm's top threat. CCW Junior Heavyweight Cup Luchador Sorpresa vs. MoonmanThis will be as close as anything on this card to a pure lucha libre experience, with Sorpresa and Moonman battling for the chance to represent Santana Family Wrestling in the CCW Cup. Moonman's slight edge in agility could be negated by Sorpresa's more well rounded game, but it will not be surprising if this one comes down to the wire. CCW Junior Heavyweight Cup Vice Versa vs. Lutadora FestivaExpect intricate techniques and gleeful antics here, with Vice Versa and Lutadora Festiva both bringing refined skills and a fun loving mentality to the ring. Word has it that Versa has trained heavily to upgrade her game as of late, in an attempt to keep pace with her fellow EWO members, while Festiva has repeatedly posted her progress in her Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu training alongside her significant other, Thiago Gracie. --- Felix Santana Senior: (Translated from Spanish) <I really hate that I have to do this, but I am a man of my word. Dungeon Dominguez is the person El Macho chose, and that's who's going to challenge El Froggy in our main event. Not my choice, but an agreement is an agreement, I signed off on this, so that garbage headed Dungeon gets to be in my main event, whether I like it or not...and I don't. Too bad my son was set up to lose, but that's the game. Felix Santana Junior: <That's right, I let our family down at Warriorversary, I lost to El Macho. I am more mad at myself than I am at him! Because now, the Santanas and Macho are one and one, he lost his mask when I interfered, I lost my shot at Pantero when Dungeon stuck his head into our match! I set the precedent for that incident, so I cannot be angry at him for calling for help! But now, I promise, El Macho, if you stick your head around here again, if you try to carry on with your campaign of hatred against my family, I promise you that I will not stand by and do nothing! If it is a war you want, it will be a war you will receive! Dungeon, you earned this, but if you think you will have an easy match against El Froggy Mask, I beg you to think again! Nobody needs to show up around here for this! --- Jumperman: I've spent six years in this sport, three years training with El Froggy, he told me that he's ready for me to take the next step up from the indys. Now it's my time to show everyone what I got. Felix Santana III is much respected, a match with a Santana on my debut is big! But Felix, you are not the Jumperman! You will be the one who will not be ready for this! --- Cowboy Johnston: Ah'm sick an' tired of goin' back an' forth in mah career! Lil' Lariato: Man, you and me both. But look at this, we got a big time chance here to do just that. All we got to do is beat the Brawlers. Cowboy: An then we got ourselves a plum good chance at gettin' at those there Trios belts! Ah know we can beat the Drifters! Lariato: Just have to get back up on the treadmill and run again...not that you know anything about that! Cowboy: Shuddup! --- The Everyman: They tell me I can't get back in the ring for some time, but I'm not the type to sit around on my butt all day. Not when there's work to be done. The task is simple. Just win. "Long Haul" Lenny Broadway: Yep. Big Bubba Bob: We're gonna kick their asses, 'cause we do what we want, when we want! Ain't that right? Broadway: Nah, not really. But it's alright. We got a chance here, and I like that. Everyman: And you, Walker, you better be up to the task. We have a lot riding on this job, and we don't need any slackers. Jimmy Jack Walker: *hiccup* Yeah, I'ma gonna be fine....just fine...like a nice wine...*hiccup* hey, that hy-rimes, rhymes, whatever...don't they spell that word with a 'Y' and not an "I" 'cause that's kinda weird. *hiccup* Bubba: That's how it's spelled? Um, that's cool! The Everyman slams a palm onto his face and holds back on an irritated sigh. Broadway: It's alright, boss, we'll be on task. Always are, when the rubber meets the road. And Walker here, we know what he does in the ring. He'll deliver when it matters. Everyman: I just hate not being in the ring for this one. Makes me feel like a...*spit*...slacker. Broadway: Nah, you're just gonna be the supervisor. Every job needs a supervisor. Everyman: Damn this to hell. Straight to hell. I'm a working man, not a desk sitter! Bubba: Next time, can I be the supervisor?

An especially eventful night for Santana Family Wrestling, with the TIPWF having their moments as well. Be sure to read El Froggy's promo at the bottom if you read nothing else here. --- RESULTS Santana Family Wrestling x TIPWF: POWER for the Gold 8:00 PM (CT) on Friday, September 11th, at the Public Square in Washington DC Bonus Match Colossus Rhodes vs. Supernaut with Holy Diver One more for the road, as Colossus Rhodes went about the methodical, matter of fact deconstruction of Supernaut. While the Neon Knight had his moments, it never seemed as if this one was in question, with Rhodes never needing his Colossal Bomb, hitting a backbreaker into a double foot stomp right before the twelve minute mark to walk away victorious, once again. Main Event: Interim Dominican Golden Championship Bout El Froggy Mask(C) with Felix Santana Sr. and Felix Santana Jr. vs. Dungeon Dominguez(Lucha POWER) with Paco Pequeno(Lucha POWER) and El Experto While El Froggy Mask put in a valiant effort, he seemed entirely outclassed by his challenger, with Dungeon Dominguez demonstrating a violent command of the ring, matching EFM move for move and putting the boots to him repeatedly, before finishing him with a simple, effective huracanrana pin to take the Interim Dominican Golden Championship. Bonus Match Roland Chang III with Roland Chang Sr. vs. Killer King Jones A solid brawl between the TIPWF #1 contender with Killer King drawing blood with a fork and landing some big chair assisted scoop slams and running elbow drops, but no Eritrean Head Cannon would connect, and Chang fought through the onslaught to hit several Wrangler Slams and the high angle throwing Wrangler Bomb to score a most impressive win over the deathmatch veteran. TIPWF Lone Star Trios Championship #1 Contender Bout Cogburn Ranch(Cowboy Johnston, Lil' Lariato and Generalissimo Kool Q with Duke Cogburn) vs. Blue Collar Brawlers(Lenny Broadway, Big Bubba Bob and Jimmy Jack Walker with The Everyman) While the Brawlers had their moments, Broadway hitting some big moves in particular, the Cogburn Ranch were in fine form, with Cowboy Johnston closing out, hitting an incredibly rare moonsault off the top and finishing with a sheer drop brainbuster on Jimmy Jack Walker to score the pinfall and earn the Ranch a shot at the Trios belts. The Mallard(MWWC) vs. Misterio Guerrero An incredible match featuring big kicks, high dives, powerful slams and intense action between these two cross promotional rivals. A top notch match from both Mallard and Guerrero, but it would be the MWWC star who would grasp the match in its closing minutes with an amazing DDT counter that led to a Phoenix Splash for the hard earned victory. Carmen Latour(Phoenix Rising) vs. Princesa Torbellina An incredible showing for the Cajun rookie, Carmen Latour, who befuddled Princesa Torbellina at many points with her explosive, agile offence, and despite a decent comeback down the stretch for Torbellina, managed to land a spectacular shooting star press to finish the match. Jumperman with El Froggy Mask vs. Felix Santana III Despite his big main event match, El Froggy showed up to support his protege. (And perhaps, to show off his Pro Wrestling Tees merchandise as well.) The Jumperman came in with a decent bit of hype...which seemed to put Felix Santana III in an especially bad mood as he quickly hit a heavy backdrop suplex that utterly obliterated his foe, finishing the match by referee stoppage. Rudo Army(Canadian Grizzly, Megan Chabot and Hijo de Macchiato) vs. Animal Farm(Gorilla Power, Lila Gila and Super Komodo) A solid, even match between the Rudos and the Farm, both sides getting in their fair share of offence, but it would be Canadian Grizzly who would come out on top by taking the fight to the feared Gorilla Power, locking him down with a Quebec Crab for the win. CCW Junior Heavyweight Cup Luchador Sorpresa vs. Moonman A back and forth contest with Moonman hitting many of his best moves, including the Moon Valley Driver and the Lunar Lander, but mostly in the lower quadrant of the ring. Holding on long enough, Luchador Sorpresa was able to counter Moonman with the infamous rana bomb to score the three count. CCW Junior Heavyweight Cup Vice Versa vs. Lutadora Festiva An excellent showcase for Vice Versa, who endured Lutadora's dancing antics and scored a win with the Twist Up Special running pinning combination after controlling most of the match. --- Match of the Night: The Mallard vs. Misterio Guerrero -Action packed, back and forth battle that was somewhat sloppy in its intensity, which made it all the better, great showing for the MWWC ace and Guerrero. Performer of the Night: Dungeon Dominguez/Canadian Grizzly -Winning the Interim Dominican Golden Championship is well enough to earn the honors here, while a submission victory, with a secondary submission to boot, over Gorilla Power is enough to give Grizzly part of the award as well. --- Injury Report Jumperman: Grade Two Stinger (One Month Medical Suspension) -Dropped on his head with a sheer drop backdrop from Felix Santana III, Jumperman will miss the next month of action to take care of his neck injury, a pinched nerve to be specific. --- Felix Santana III: I just have one thing to say. Felix 3:16 says I just suplexed your ass. All the hype in the world isn't gonna save you from that. Jumperman, when you're ready again, come back for more, if you've got the guts. They can call me the prodigal son, the forgotten boy of the family, but if you think that means I don't have what it takes to be the best of the best, then you better check yourself. --- Roland Chang III: Killer King Jones is tough. He's violent. But I threw him like he was a sack of potatoes. Roland Chang Senior: Valentina, I do hope you were watching this tonight. Because what my grandson did here, was a demonstration of the power, and the versatility that he brings to the table. And what he will bring to bear when he looks to take his opportunity at your TIPWF Lone Star Heavyweight championship. Roland III: I know you are very skilled, and have a lot of tricks. But I'm just an honest fighter. What you see is what you're gonna get. Chang Senior: Kid, you just do what you do, and we'll see where that takes you. As long as you work hard, and keep your head on your shoulders...that'll make you smarter than my son, at least! Roland III: Not lying, I'm glad Dad's still suspended, or he'd be saying stupid things about Valentina right now...or about Sam Hall...or about Commissioner Callahan... Chang Senior: It's like I said, kid, keep your head on your shoulders, and you might just find that you can do some great things. Lose it...and yes, you end up saying very senseless things about everyone you encounter. --- Cowboy Johnston: Ah'm feelin' great tonight! Hit mah moonsault out there, yah see that? Lil' Lariato: All that beef fed bulk droppin' down like an anvil, Makin' the crowd's pop like they always will! Move outta the way, Brawlers, it ain't your time Gonna beat on the Drifters, like it's legalized crime! Generalissimo Kool Q: Old school, new school, we don't play the fool, We're useful like a tool, we're hip and we're cruel! Duke Cogburn: Hmph, next time, I want in. Lariato, I don't blame you at all for what you did. Took me, on, and put me down like you should have. But I'm not sitting on the side while you all have your fun again. No doctor can tell me to do so next time! Lariato: Well, I don't want to sit out, that's for sure. And big Cowboy here earned us this chance. And Q pulled his weight. Kool Q: Damn straight I did. Lariato: I know, let's roll some dice for this. Kool Q: I got a few pairs of dice right here...always gotta be prepared for when you want to throw some Cee-Lo. We all throw one, lowest one loses. Since you won us the match tonight, you're up first, Cowboy. Cowboy: Alright then...Ah got a four, ain't gonna lose! Lariato: I'm alive with a five! Kool Q: Five as well, can't you tell? Duke: And that...damnit, it bounced under the table...don't touch that or I'll break your finger, Cowboy! Let me see it... Well, hell, I do believe I rolled what they call a six. Cowboy: But... Duke: So, it's us seasoned folk, and Lariato. Cowboy: Ah won that shot! Duke: And you lost your chance, fair and square! I'll be seeing you at ringside, pilgrim! --- El Experto: (Translated from Spanish) <It is as you have seen! I have told you all that the time of the Santana Family is drawing to a close. Felix Santana Senior could do nothing but watch as his friend was systematically dismantled in the middle of the ring. The future of the wrestling industry is not in the hands of those who play by the rules! It is not in the hands of people like El Froggy Mask who sell their t-shirts, who are cheered by the unwashed masses, who obey the doddering fools who run their society.> Experto: <No, the future belongs to those who can grasp a hold of it, and forcefully wrench it into their own image! It belongs to people like Dungeon Dominguez, men who know no borders, who obey no limits, who spit on the law, who reject authority! It belongs to true Rudos, not those who merely play the role, like the execrable Salvador Sosa, who has yet to leave the safety of his endless rehabilitation! It belongs to those who can thrive in any system like Paco Pequeno! It belongs to those who never let go of the long game, like El Macho! And it belongs to those, like myself, who know that the winning side...is the one that the experts are on.> --- El Froggy Mask: (Translated from Spanish) <I do not speak very often. But I must speak tonight. Tonight...was my last night in Santana Family Wrestling. I had the belt one more time. It was fun. But it is now time to hop on to another pond in life. From this point on, I am no longer El Froggy Mask anymore. From now on, I am the Notorious EFM, El Froggy Original.> Notorious EFM: <I have wrestled in Santana Family Wrestling over a decade. I am still loyal to the Santanas, they are my friends, they are like my wrestling family. But it is time, while I still have spring in my step, to go find other challenges.> EFM: <You may ask why I change my name. Part of it is because I am entering a new part of my career. Mainly, though, it is because there must always be an El Froggy Mask in Santana Family Wrestling. And soon, you will meet the new Froggy. As he begins, I will hop aside to give him the space he needs to leap to the top, as I know he will. I hope you will all cheer him like you have cheered me. This is not a retirement, it is a new start!>

Speaking with the SantanasBy Kevin "The Internet" Anderson On Saturday morning, Santana Family Wrestling promoter Felix Santana Sr. held a video conference with me, and included his son Felix Jr, his grandson Felix III and his granddaughter, Felice at various points. For the insanely low cost of $3.99 a month, you can see the footage of the entire interview and have unlimited access to World Wrestling Daily Digest's Premium Insider content, including the full archives of "Digital" Dave Doolittle's Ring Beholder podcast, "Fast" Eddie Edison's Quick Picks and Maxwell McNally's in-depth interviews. As it is, however, you need not pay to see this essential article, condensing some of the most important moments of the interview: --- Kevin "The Internet" Anderson: With your hated rival, El Macho having essentially won your treasured belt by proxy, many believe you will do anything in your power to take it away from Dungeon Dominguez, even going as far as to book him against Colossus Rhodes. What are your actual plans for the belt? Felix Santana Senior: I will make it my duty to get the belt off Dungeon Dominguez as quick as I can. It is nothing against Lucha POWER, although they are still not the true kings of Lucha Libre! It is simply that I believe Dungeon to be a no good bastard! A tool of El Macho and nothing more! I don't want him as my champ any longer than he has to be! And no, I will not consider Colossus Rhodes, he and Dungeon and Experto and Macho and that little tiny criminal Paco are all on the same side, why would I let one of them pass the belt to the other! We worked too hard to take the Dominican Golden Championship from Rhodes, he will not get another shot! --- Anderson: So, with the departure of the Notorious EFM, the absence of Salvador Sosa and the alliance between El Experto and El Macho, some might suggest that Santana Family Wrestling is entering into a low point in its history, is that true? Felix Senior: It is true that things are not good in a lot of ways. But we have lots of talent. My son is willing and capable. Moonman sells merchandise. My grandson and granddaughter are impressing people. I am still here! The Rudo Army is strong. Animal Farm was a strong addition to our roster. I disagree. Anderson: And speaking of EFM, there is going to be a new Froggy Mask, or so I've heard. I think a lot of people have guessed that Jumperman is likely going to fill this role. But he did not have a good debut. Are there any changes in this plan? Felix Senior: Who told you that? Anderson: I am not at liberty to disclose my sources...but with all due respect, it's kind of obvious that the guy that EFM trained would take his place. Felix Senior: No comment! --- Anderson: So, Felix III, Felice, you two are seen by many as the future of SFW. Felix, you especially made a point with your knockout win over Jumperman, and word has it they're already selling Felix 3:16 t-shirts. Felix Santana III: That's right. And I'd like to say right now that if Gramps wants to take that belt off Dungeon, that you're looking at the man to do it, right here. Anderson: So, is that an official challenge? Felix Senior: It is not! Felix III: The hell it isn't! I want a shot at Dungeon! And I want to snap him in two just like I did to your hyped up future Froggy! Yeah, I don't give a damn, everybody already knew he's gonna be El Froggy II, don't give me that look, just give me that title shot! Felix Senior: Can you beat the Canadian Grizzly? Because I think he's been more consistent than you. Felix III: Give me Grizzly after I beat Dungeon. But I'm not backing down, you don't give me that match, and I'll jump in there and drop everyone on their head! Felix Senior: I'll consider that...but you don't dictate my decisions to me! Felice Santana: Well, if my brother can make demands then maybe I'll make a demand of my own if we're getting all demand-y here because I think I deserve to make my own demand too so if that's the case then what I want is that I want the first match with El Froggy Mask II when you debut him as El Froggy II because that's like a real important match and I want to be part of that match and I also kinda want to see if I can beat him faster than my brother did! Felix Senior: I think I need some whisky.. --- Felix Santana Junior: It is true, I will miss my good friend, El Froggy...er...Notorious EFM. It will be tough for me to get used to that. But he is not dead or even retired! He is not even out of the Senatorial Office! So I do hope that our paths will cross again sooner than later. Anderson: Do you want to take a shot at Dungeon, especially after he cost you your match with El Macho? Felix Junior: Truth be told, I wouldn't mind a match for the Interim Golden Championship. But as for Dungeon himself, I don't have any burning need for a match with him. He did to me what I did to Macho. As far as I am concerned, the books are even because of that, I have no grudge specifically with him. Anderson: Are you sure about that? A lot of people would suggest that you're not telling the full truth here. Felix Junior: They would be fools! As I would be if I didn't learn from my own mistakes and from the mistakes of others. That's why I'm still a top name in the business today. It's because I am confident in who I am, in what I do. It's also because I am enough of a man to know that endlessly chasing after revenge does nothing for you! Should Macho or Dungeon come looking for a fight, I will not run! But neither will I go running towards the fight. --- Anderson: There was a significant upset in the CCW Cup with Luchador Sorpresa beating Moonman. Some would say you were not happy with this. Felix Senior: Whoever wins, wins. Sorpresa is good at what he does. That's enough for me. Anderson: He'll be going on to face Vice Versa, who was once a member of your roster. There are some who have said that you might be looking at entirely merging your roster and championship with those of the TIPWF, is there any truth in this rumor? Felix Senior: I have heard this offer over and over again. And I know where it comes from! Tell Midas that he can take his gold and his manipulations and stick them where the sun don't shine! Santana Family Wrestling is proud to be its own thing, just as the TIPWF is! We have some things in common, and it is true that our shows work well together, but we are equal partners in the Office, we are not going to marry our history together and stick a hyphen between our names!

Wacker Drive Revival x Lightning Pro: Mercury vs. Moonsault8:00 PM (CT) on Friday, September 18th at the Public Square in Washington, DC Main Event: The Loop Championship Bout Phil Mercury(C) with Valerie May, Stu the Blue and Fred the Red vs. Mr. Moonsault with Daunte Thomas, Frank McMichaelson and Astrid JohannsonHaving earned the chance for the D-Team, Mr. Moonsault personally called out Three Lions's top man, Phil Mercury to defend the Wacker Drive title in a singles contest. More is at stake here than just the trophy, with the D-Team captain having expressed his dismay for the Superstar Showman's ascendency to the top spot in Wacker Drive, believing that he must defeat Mercury to once again become the undisputed face of the company. Three on Four Handicap Match White Hot(Keiko Maeda(Phoenix Rising)Rei Hasegawa, Saburo Aoki Jr. and Yuki Sakamura) vs. The Destructive Duo(Crusher Honda and Wrecker Yamamoto) and Yuriko MasamuneIn anticipation for their title challenge, the Destructive Duo called out the entire group of White Hot, with the Sparks, Saburo Aoki Jr and Yuki Okamura teaming up with the tag champs, Rei Hasegawa and Keiko Maeda. The Duo will not go it alone, though, bringing in their storied mentor, Yuriko Masamune to even the odds out, although not the numbers. For Maeda and Hasegawa, this match could offer more than an opportunity to scout out their future challengers, but perhaps to take a stand and demonstrate that their win over Worldwide Conquest was not a complete fluke. Masa Tokugawa with Ai Tanaka vs. ALEXANDER with Nishimura EndoHaving lost the Victorious Tag Medals and Tarkhan the Mangler in a defeat to White Hot, ALEXANDER and Worldwide Conquest seek out some form of a return to form. A win over Masa Tokugawa will certainly go a long way towards doing so, but the Apocalyptic Warrior is an easy win for no man, with one solid knee being all that it could take to reduce the Conquest to one member. The Endless Feud Astrid Johannson vs. Sarita Jean WatkinsNo doubt about it, these two ladies hate each other. They've faced off multiple times, with varying results. Both have reportedly been hard at training as of late, with Watkins having shown impressive progress on some training videos with Humberto Ortega, and Johannson having claimed that Freight Train McMichaelson has taken her game to the next level. Either way, the Scandinavian lingerie football player and the dedicated activist will likely turn this into a typical ugly brawl, as is almost inevitable with these two. The Goodfellas(Eddie the Wire and Tony the Rod) vs. The Muscle Machines(Gary Gear and Adonis Avery Alexander)The veteran Made Men might be one of the best organized teams in the entire Critical Alliance. By comparison, the Muscle Machines have been seen as almost farcically inept in their approach to teamwork. However, the Machines have recently done much to turn things around in their showings in Phoenix Rising, and could present far more of a challenge to the Goodfellas than many might expect. CCW Junior Heavyweight Cup Ayako Miyamoto vs. Kaede KinoshitaTwo of the most overlooked members of the L-Pro roster will vie for the organization's spot in the CCW Cup, with the suplex specialist Ayako Miyamoto up against an all around challenge in Kaede Kinoshita. Kinoshita has been cited as a future ace for the company, while Miyamoto, the protege of Mr. Nobunaga, may well be seeking such a goal for herself. CCW Junior Heavyweight Cup Elle Barrett vs. "Total" MDK Taylor NgyuenArguably the fastest rising star in the Office, Total MDK Taylor Ngyuen will look to move onto the next round of the CCW Cup and find more tournament success in this year, but Elle Barrett and her finely honed technique may well stand in the way as the Action Pack's winningest member also looks to represent Wacker Drive in the next round. The Action Pack(Dutch Schwartz and JT Bosco with Ross Malone) vs. NBNF(X-Treme Kid and Emerald Santiago with DUDE Smith)The two heaviest hitters of the Pack will go up against the XTK and Emerald Santiago of the NBNF team. While NBNF has a clear speed and technique advantage here, the size and power of Schwartz and Bosco cannot be discounted here. Preliminary Main Event G.P. Christopher vs. Wataru Nakajima(ZIP Japan)A dream match for the King of the Openers, with ZIP Japan's legendary Patriarch, Wataru Nakajima returning once again to Lightning Pro action. Having previously been injured way back in January in a tag match against the Super Grey Machine, Nakajima took much of the year off but looks to fight his way back into action against one of the best in the business. GPC, for his part, has stated that he wishes to defend his Victorious Medal against both of the Destructive Duo, one at a time, but will stay busy with matches such as this.

Wacker Drive and L-Pro join together once more today to bring you a show jammed full of team based combat and fast paced action! The Loop is on the line in the main event with Phil Mercury and Mr. Moonsault respectively representing the Three Lions and the D-Team as they fight for the top spot in WDR! The entire alliance of White Hot, including Victorious Tag Medal champs, Rei Hasegawa and Keiko Maeda will go up against the terrifying threat of the Destructive Duo alongside their mentor, Yuriko Masamune! The CCW Cup continues once again! And in the Preliminary Main Event, GP Christopher will indulge in a dream match against one of his wrestling heroes, ZIP Japan's incomparable Patriarch, the ageless Wataru Nakajima! Catch it all on the Senatorial Streaming Service at 8:00 PM (CT)! www.twitch.tv/senatorphillips--- Mr. Moonsault: I see what the people are saying. They think that I've got it in for Phil Mercury. Couldn't be further from the truth. I respect Phil. He's a baller, he brings it each and every time he gets in the ring. But there's a problem. And that's the fact that Phil's stepped up into a place that I used to take for granted. His team's got The Loop. And he's being talked about as if he's now the top man in this place. That's something I can't abide. I will not let him step up into my spot without a fight. And the D-Team wants The Loop back. Phil, you've done well, but this is where the real test begins. --- Phil Mercury: The stage is set, the actors are prepared, the audience is enthralled! Mr. Moonsault has been the star, but he has never been able to match the supernova star power of the Superstar Showman! Wacker Drive Revival, be prepared to witness greatness tonight, for whatever happens, we promise that we will rock you from the top of your heads to the tip of your toes, that you will see something you will remember for years and years, but when the final curtain is drawn and the people disperse, all that you need to know is that the Three Lions will stand tall and proclaim that once again, we are the champions! --- G.P. Christopher: Hey, the Patriarch's absolutely a dream match of mine. I've teamed with him before...didn't go so well, he spent most of this year off thanks to Super Grey Shima Ito. Some people thought he was done. But I stayed in touch with him, and while the road back was a long one, Nakajima-san's back and ready once again. And while I wait for Crusher and Wrecker to get done with their tag stuff, and for that ugly-ass Young Blood to give me what I deserve in regards to a shot at the #1, I'm not going to twiddle my fingers. I want real matches. And nothing's realer than this one. Nakajima-san's going to bring his best, and I can't disrespect him with anything less than mine. --- Rei Hasegawa: (Translated from Japanese) <It is true, you have done much to deserve more than this. You have been my Sparks, for which I have been most appreciative. But it is well past time that you become more than just my beautifully devoted supporters. I demonstrated the path as I endured the trials and tribulations of the Blackwood Academy, now you may both take the next step forward as you leave the Lightning Pro Dojo and become true and full members of the roster.> Saburo Aoki Junior: <All good, mon ami, Saburo Aoki Jr. was born ready for this.> Yuki Okamura: <I've trained with the best around here in America! I trained with Daniel Ness and the Dwight Gym! I trained with top submission wrestlers! I've upgraded my Greco-Roman style to a new level! I've lifted like Gary Gear and built my body up! I cut my hair and I rededicated myself! Nobody can outgrapple me now! I'm not just Yuki Okamura, I'm now the person you don't want to face! You don't want to deal with the Punishment!> Rei: <Oh my, Miss Okamura, you speak as if your fire has truly been lit. And Mr. Aoki, you never have many words to speak, but you speak them with such confidence. But I know that my best friend, Keiko will be ready for tonight. Are you each prepared for the formidable threat of Crusher Honda and Wrecker Yamamoto? I know that even my knees tremble a little bit when I consider this match.> Saburo: <No worries, Rei, you can depend on the Swift Blade any day of the week, any night of the month.> Yuki: <The Duo think they're such a terrifying force, but they haven't seen what I can do now! If they try to hurt you, Rei, they will face their Punishment!> Rei: <Very well then. Confidence is a good thing. But do please try not to become too cocky, I know all too personally how that can hold us back. It is a fine line upon which we tread, is it not? And yet, I trust in my heart that we may yet demonstrate our capability to do so, tonight.> --- Crusher Honda: <Little spoiled rich girl!> Wrecker Yamamoto: <Spoiled dirty rotten!> Honda: <I can't wait until tonight when I can get my hands on you puny, skinny, delicate little people! Because when I do so, I will break your skulls like the eggshells that they are, and White Hot will look more like splattered grey matter all over the ring! Wrecker: <Little tiny people, three or four, it doesn't matter, we'll break you all! Honda and I love breaking things more than anything else in life!> Honda: <We're not outnumbered here, you are! One of us is worth three of you! And we aren't alone!> Yuriko Masamune: <That's right. I must say first, that I am so proud of you all, Rei, you matured so much lately, I thought you were hopeless before, but you have become so much better since your excursion began and I couldn't be happier. Saburo, you have a bright future, I believe you can be a top star some day, if you just keep growing and stay dedicated. Yuki, I am almost scared to see what you have become here, I know you have worked very, very hard lately, and the results should be extremely impressive. And Keiko, I know your mother, and as accomplished and strong as she is, I think you can even surpass her sooner than you would ever expect, if I ever decide to finally hang up the boots, I want you to know that I expect to have a match, one on one with you on my final tour, I want to experience that before I am done!> Yuriko: <But, for all the bright futures which I speak of, if you are not ready for tonight, you might not find that they ever come to pass. A train may seem to be destined to reach its destination. But if a disaster strikes the railway, if that path becomes intersected by a landslide, an earthquake...then that train is halted in its place. Wrecker, Crusher and I, we are that disaster of which I speak! Even your best might be insufficient against us! Do not make any plans for your immediate future because you must first reckon with the obstacle which we present to you!>

A briskly paced show with some lopsided results and some excellent showings for some of the top stars of WDR and L-Pro! --- RESULTS Wacker Drive Revival x Lightning Pro: Mercury vs. Moonsault 8:00 PM (CT) on Friday, September 18th at the Public Square in Washington, DC Main Event: The Loop Championship Bout Phil Mercury(C) with Valerie May, Stu the Blue and Fred the Red vs. Mr. Moonsault with Daunte Thomas, Frank McMichaelson and Astrid Johannson With their full teams at ringside, Mr. Moonsault and Phil Mercury put on a battle for the ages, leaving no question in anyone's mind that the two are without a shadow of a doubt, the top two performers in WDR. And while Mercury came close on multiple occasions, putting Marcus Xavier Under Pressure with his figure eight leglock, landing the Don't Stop Me Now repeated diving elbow drops multiple times and gaining the closest of near falls with the Sheer Heart Attack corkscrew moonsault, Mr. Moonsault managed to come away with the win, interrupting an elbow drop combo with a quick punch and hitting a picture perfect moonsault press off the top for the three count, winning The Loop back for the D-Team once again. Three on Four Handicap Match White Hot(Keiko Maeda(Phoenix Rising)Rei Hasegawa, Saburo Aoki Jr. and Yuki Sakamura) vs. The Destructive Duo(Crusher Honda and Wrecker Yamamoto) and Yuriko Masamune White Hot tried. The improvements of Aoki Jr. and Okamura were obvious, and both Maeda and Hasegawa were aggressive. But the Destructive Duo's alliance were simply too much, frequently taking the fight outside, isolating members of their opposition and eventualy, Wrecker Yamamoto would finish off Rei Hasegawa with a Final Cut in the Duo's corner. A foreboding result for White Hot as they approach a title defense against Honda and Yamamoto. Masa Tokugawa vs. ALEXANDER An enjoyable back and forth slugfest, with Tokugawa's striking giving him an early edge. ALEXANDER fired back with his power game as the match went along, dominating long stretches with his tombstone piledrivers and the deadly Gordian Drop. And yet, it would be Masa Tokugawa who would walk away victorious, after once again inflicting a knockout with his dreaded Apocalypse Knee, leaving Nishimura Endo as the only currently intact member of Worldwide Conquest. The Endless Feud Astrid Johannson vs. Sarita Jean Watkins The D-Team's lingerie football sensation was in top form as she ran down her longtime rival, utterly demolishing Sarita Jean Watkins in and out of the ring before putting her away before the eight minute mark with a charging Swedish Spear. Even so, there were glimpses that Watkins did improve her technique...but only glimpses of such development. The Goodfellas(Eddie the Wire and Tony the Rod) vs. The Muscle Machines(Gary Gear and Adonis Avery Alexander) Once again, the Muscle Machines seemed to forget how to work together, a deadly approach to taking on the smoothest team in the Office, or perhaps even in all of professional wrestling. The Goodfellas pummeled the Machines down the stretch, with Eddie the Wire hitting a big combo into a sliding Mafia Kick to take the win. CCW Junior Heavyweight Cup Ayako Miyamoto vs. Kaede Kinoshita A superb matchup that started methodically and ramped up after the ten minute mark, with Miyamoto's barrage of German suplexes taking a toll, but it would be Kinoshita who came out ahead, with the Stardust Angel hitting her Stardust Press for the win after a back and forth clash of big moves. CCW Junior Heavyweight Cup Elle Barrett vs. "Total" MDK Taylor Ngyuen As successful as Taylor Ngyuen has been as of late, the experience of Elle Barrett was just too much for her here, weathering the storm of Total MDK's fast paced attack, and taking advantage of her lack of focus to hit the Barrett .50 Cal. gory bomb to go onto the next round. The Action Pack(Dutch Schwartz and JT Bosco with Ross Malone) vs. NBNF(X-Treme Kid and Emerald Santiago with DUDE Smith) Dutch Schwartz and JT Bosco demonstrated their superior power for stretches of this match, but the machine gun tagwork and fierce approach of NBNF were the deciding factor, with X-Treme Kid hitting his X-cape Plan diamond dust stunner out of the corner for the win. Preliminary Main Event G.P. Christopher vs. Wataru Nakajima(ZIP Japan) No doubt about it, GPC took it easy on his hero in this match. Nakajima, though, did not take it easy on the Victorious Medal holder and ran him down with multiple Nakajima Special regalplex style suplexes, hard chops, enzuigiris and a trademark Wataru Spike/Old Man Driver modified northern lights bomb for the win. --- Match of the Night: Mercury vs. Moonsault -Zero doubt about it, Phil Mercury and Marcus Xavier lived up to their top billing on the card and put on an excellent match with The Loop and top spot in WDR on the line. An acrobatic, fast paced, seesaw struggle of a match. Tokugawa vs. ALEXANDER would come in a close second, as well. Performer of the Night: Mr. Moonsault -Defeating his top opponent in style gives Moonsault a double award for the night. --- Injury Report ALEXANDER: Moderate Concussion (Three Month Medical Suspension) -The Greek-Japanese star of Worldwide Conquest ate the dreaded Apocalypse Knee at the hands of Masa Tokuagawa, and will be joining his teammate, Tarkhan on the shelf as a result, following the standard Office concussion protocol. --- Mr. Moonsault: I'm back. Astrid Johannson: You see that, the D-Team is back on top once again! We are the best around! We proved ourselves tonight against the Three Lions, although I respect them a lot! And I showed that bitch Sarita that she can talk all she wants, but she can't walk the walk against me! I suplexed her out of the ring! I speared her out of her shoes! I pummeled her like she needed to be pummeled! I took her and I... Freight Train McMichaelson: Astrid? Johannson swings around from the microphone with a livid pout at McMichaelson and the two engage in a brief staredown before the two start to chuckle. Daunte Thomas: Might wanna let Marcus get a few more words in, just sayin'. Moonsault: That's right, I'm back. We're back. The D-Team was down and out for a long time. We went from the top of the hill to the bottom of the pile. It wasn't good. But we dusted ourselves off, we put in the work, and now you can all see the results. Mr. Moonsault holds up The Loop trophy with a hand, before passing it off to Astrid. Moonsault: Phil Mercury, you're good. But you're not the best. --- G.P. Christopher: Yeah, yeah, let me have it. Nakajima-san already did. He's pissed, and after what I said before the match, can't blame him. Kevin "The Internet" Anderson: So, the question does need to be asked out loud for the record. Did you take it easy on him? GPC: Yeah...I did. Didn't want to break him after he spent all that time off, after another injury so quick could maybe finally make him consider retirement. Especially after I was there when he got hurt the first time. I didn't want that on my shoulders, wanted to see if I could beat him without going into the big stuff. Should have known better than that, but it is what it is. Anderson: You said he wasn't happy, you spoke to Mr. Nakajima after the match? GPC: I did. And he let me have it. Told me I don't deserve to be the champ if I don't keep that killer instinct, if I don't treat each match like it matters. Slapped me like Inoki and said I better be ready when the Medal's on the line. And damn, that slap hurt more than the ones he hit in the match itself. Anderson: With the Destructive Duo going for the Medal on the next L-Pro broadcast, what's your plan for the Preliminary Main Event next time around? GPC: I dunno, I'd give Masa a "prove it" match, but I don't want to step on Crusher or Wrecker's toes. Maybe I give Yuriko a match, that'd make sense. Take on the mentor before I take on the challenger, I've always wanted that match, too. I mean... ???: You fight me next time! GPC: Hah, Wrecker Yamamoto, congratulations on your win out there, good luck against the White Hot girls in your Tag Medal match...but I'm not going to take a month off to wait for you, sorry about that! Wrecker Yamamoto: No! I fight you next time! For the Medal! GPC: Double duty? Is that what we're talking about? Wrecker: Why wait? White Hot lose easy! Don't need best for them! GPC: It's your team you're talking about, and if I'm being serious here, you just saw how I lost to Nakajima-san, can't take those two lightly, even if you already beat them in that mess of a match. They're fast and they're smart. But don't get me wrong, you want to double up, I'm ready to jump. I'd prefer it, even. Wrecker: (Translated from Japanese) <I will not just be ready for you! I will smash you into pieces! And then I will finally be the respected champion of Lightning Pro, and Crusher can admire my Medal when I show it off to her! For once, it will be mine and not hers! And then she and I will have all the Victorious Medals when the night is over! It will be a wonderful night for the Duo!> GPC: Hey, sounds cool to me, if I can't wear the Medal, I think I'd want you to have it more than anyone else out there...but too bad you're not going to take it from me. This thing, it's mine. Check out my resume. I'm next in line to take on Young Blood, because I defended this Medal so many times. You know I respect you and Crusher like my big scary sisters, but if you think you can run me over, just remember, you're not facing my 50% effort that I showed tonight. You're getting the best the King of the Openers has to offer, you're going to receive the full force of the Ronin of Destiny, you're going to experience just what Philly Strong Style is all about, and that, Wrecker, is nothing but...just plain real. Christopher and Yamamoto stared off for a few moments while Kevin Anderson slowly took a step back. As Yamamoto cracked her neck, GPC offered a hand to shake. His future challenger looked down at it for an uncomfortably long period of time, a defiant, disgusted look on her face. And without warning, she lunged out, and grasped the hand. The two shared a vigorous shake, but when Christopher went to pull back, Yamamoto held on. And held on tighter. GPC: Um, ouch. Christopher gritted his teeth, and gently tapped out on the back of Yamamoto's wrist. Surprisingly, she let go with a harsh laugh, one partly shared by GPC, as he tried to shake the circulation back into his appendage. Wrecker: Soon! --- The X-Treme Kid: We earned our shot back at The Loop! We need to get that back so we can tell everyone they can suck it! Big Robert Montgomery: Fine, you won your match. Con-grat-u-lations. But Taylor lost her match. And the Goodfellas won theirs, too. And they beat a team from L-Pro. Which I was happy to see. Why should I give you a shot over the Action Pack when they went even with NBNF tonight? XTK: Because we're that damn good! Montgomery: Come on now, that talk doesn't fly with me, son. What I'm thinking here, is that next time around, you and the Syndicate can go four on four, elimination rules, and the winners get to challenge the D-Team however they want. Only exception here is if Elly wins that CCW Cup. She does that, Action Pack gets a shot right away. You want The Loop, earn your chances, Kid. XTK: You can't tell me what to do! Montgomery: I just did. Now get out of this office, here, and let me finish this work up. And Kid...you're way too old to still be acting like that. The XTK merely answered the Wacker Drive promoter's words with a series of crotch chops, and the last thing that the bluesman could see of him was an outstretched middle finger as he strutted out of the room. Montgomery: What a damn fool.

A triple main event is heading your way here on Friday, with the Pan African Championship, the UCSS Openweight title and the Pan African Tag Championship all on the line, plus the last match of Marcos Angulo in UCSS, the return of Aoife Daley and Sanem Becker and much more! Pan African Wrestling x UCSS: For All The Glory8:00 PM (CT) on Friday, September 25 at the William Taft Bowl in Washington, DC Main Event: Cage of Destruction: Pan African Championship Bout Jean-Pierre Mutombo(C) vs. King BembaThe Pan African Champion will finally defend his belt against his greatest rival, one on one, inside a steel cage. While there is little love between Mutombo and Bemba, there is a begrudging rivalry earned by prior confrontations, and with the cage walls up over the side of the ring, there will be no Royal Court or Congolese Connection to get in the way of what will undoubtedly be a violent, no quarter asked, none given matchup. The winner here will be well situated in the upcoming Office Ranking update, and with both men vowing revenge on current #1 Young Blood, a step closer to such a goal is likely as much a motivator as the Pan African Championship itself. Co-Main Event: UCSS Openweight Title Bout "Big Banter" Rory Banner(C) vs. Andronicus TurnerA match that will undoubtedly swirl with controversy before the bell ever rings, with Andronicus Turner having questionably taken the #1 contender spot from Port City Pro's Darryl Jenkins in an unscheduled match after Jenkins won the opportunity to face Banner. Instead, Andronicus Turner will be the one to challenge his own stable leader, with Rory Banner having pulled the strings to set this up. Should the match actually be on the up and up, it will be an interesting stylistic challenge, with the pure boxing, swift KO power and fleet footed movement of Turner presenting issues for the dual threat of Banner's clinch striking and catch submission. But many may already believe that this match will be anything but a properly competitive... Co-Main Event: Cyclones vs. War Bringers II: Pan African Tag Championship Bout The War Bringers(Demarcus Browning(Blackrose) and Moustapha Ndour)(C) with Renate Barlowe vs. The Black Star Cyclones(Layla Al Amin(Phoenix Rising) and Esi Dogboe)The first of three title matches to close out the show will be a rematch between the Black Star Cyclones and the War Bringers. With the surprising victory of the Bringers on the previous Pan African show, the duo wanted to solidify their reign by granting an instant rematch to the former champs. And that is exactly what they will receive. With the Black Star Cyclones now having experienced the power of the War Bringers, the question is now if they can learn from their loss and improve upon their past performance, or if the War Bringers can quickly grow into their newly won belts and hold onto the titles. Double Return Aoife Daley vs. Sanem BeckerBoth Aoife Daley and Sanem Becker have spent months on the shelf, waiting for their return to the ring. And this Friday, both will do so against each other in a classic striker vs. grappler matchup. Daley was sidelined by Eliza Faulkner's leglock, while Becker was done in by a big overhand from former UCSS Openweight champ, Jumbo Joseph Butt. A win here could skyrocket either lady into the title scene sooner than later, with both seen as top performers. Della Dwight with "Textbook" Tim Dwight vs. Eliza Faulkner(CWC) with Mackenzie BergeronTwo of UCSS's top prospects will put each other to the test here, with Eliza Faulkner's deadly leglock game up against Della Dwight's powerful fundamentals. With their mentors at ringside, expect a heated, but technically sound battle. Marcos Angulo Farewell Match Marcos Angulo(TIPWF) and Frank Van Sloan vs. The Jackson Hole Outlaws(Byron Worthy and Roy Carter) with Red Masterson(Warrior Pro)One third of the TIPWF Lone Star Trios champions alongside fellow High Plains Drifters in Walt Callahan and Johnny Sixname, the Tijuana Wreckin' Ball, Marcos Angulo has finally made a full time move to the TIPWF, transferring his contract to the Texan organization. However, before he takes his leave, Angulo will receive a grand sendoff, tagging with the red hot Uberkicker, Frank Van Sloan as the two go up against the nefarious Jackson Hole Outlaws, with Byron Worthy and Roy Carter seeking to make Angulo's last UCSS showing one to remember for all the wrong reasons. CCW Junior Heavy Cup Anaba Camacho vs. Jamie TomasiOn the UCSS side of the CCW, Anaba Camacho's top notch wrestling will match up against the Thiago Gracie BJJ of Jamie Tomasi. While Camacho is undoubtedly superior in the standup, Tomasi's ground game could present some threats once she inevitably throws him to the mat. Just as such, Camacho is the strong favorite in this matchup, and has reportedly been eager to debut her new Eagleplex finisher in this match. CCW Junior Heavy Cup Ali Ahmed Mehrmohammdi vs. Wesley RakotoThe Pan African matchup for the CCW pits the brand's ambassador and chief booker, Mehrmohammdi up against the Madagascan dynamo, Wesley Rakoto. Mehrmohammdi's well rounded approach has worked well for him at times, but Rakoto has found significant success as of late, especially in Pro Wrestling Revival. Leona Sterling(Phoenix Rising) vs. Leslie B.After a rather underwhelming showing contrasted with Fresh Suzuki's spectacular display in their match on Monday's Proving Ground, Leona will make her way over to UCSS competition to get back on track and take on a less formidable foe in ENHANCE's Leslie B. If she loses this one...it might be time to call it a day.

With Ali Ahmed Mehrmohammdi facilitating, Pan African Champion, Jean-Pierre Mutombo and challenger, King Bemba appeared on stream to discuss their match for this Friday.
Jean-Pierre Mutombo: Greetings and salutations, people of the world! It is I, Jean-Pierre, the African Supersensation, the Man of Unity, and your Pan African Champion!
King Bemba: But not for long. Your day draws to a close, the era of the King again is near! It was obvious when my Royal Court defeated your Connection! And when my rule is again in place, nobody will take this belt from me!
Ali Ahmed Mehrmohammdi: This is a match that we have all wanted to see for a very long time! But to make sure that this is what we hoped for, I am asking for this to be inside a steel cage, a Cage of Destruction! Are you two ready for that?
Bemba: I am the Destroyer! The Cage of Destruction is my environment! It is my guarantee! Mutombo is quaking in his boots!
JPM: You may stop putting thoughts in my head! I have no fear! Because with the steel surrounding the ring, the Royal Court will have no path to interfere! But nothing will keep the voices of the fans from my ears, nothing will prevent their good will from permeating my spirit! And nothing will keep me from finally defending my title against you!
Ali: Each of you were injured by Young Blood in the same match, do you each wish to face him again once this is over?
JPM: I very much wish for such a thing! King Bemba is my rival, and I must defeat him...but Young Blood is my enemy. He is the enemy of the people, of all of us!
Bemba: Young Blood is an unworthy ruler. It is not often when I say Mutombo is right. But while I will enjoy the act of taking my belt from him, it is a necessity that I will avenge my honor and exact my revenge upon Young Blood! He is our enemy, and one that must be eradicated! Young Blood is nothing but gutter trash, fit for the dumpster! He only defeated me through his perpetual luck! He will not do so again!
JPM: I do not like King Bemba as a friend, I do not think I will ever be friends with him...but I can respect him as an opponent and a man who does not speak one way and walk the other. He says what he means and he does not back down from a fight, and even my own fans can appreciate that! As a Man of Unity, I always look for the good in others, and there is much good in Mr. King Bemba to be admired by one and all! But that does not mean that I will not do everything it takes to leave that fearsome Cage of Destruction with my Pan African Championship held high in the air!
Bemba: Mutombo does not deserve my place. But he is worthy of losing to royalty!

At the Beltway Full Contact Martial Arts Center, a conversation was captured around a heavy bag as Andronicus Turner took a break from working the canvas over to answer a sharply dressed Rory Banner.
"Big Banter" Rory Banner: I understand that you are so very close to your opportunity to stake your claim on a trinket. But before you step through the ropes, I implore you to recall just how this match came about.
Andronicus Turner: I beat the brakes off Darryl Jenkins, that's how it happened. And I did so after he beat the stuffing out of Thiago and Wong.
Banner: Correct, do not forget how you found yourself in such an advantageous scenario, remind yourself once again to whom you are indebted.
Turner: Hey, you wanted to face me, not Jenkins, that's alright. Don't think I'm just going out there to spar, though, moment you knee me in the face, it's on, no matter what.
Banner: Very well then, perhaps you need a refresher on the hard facts surrounding this matchup! You are one dimensional, very good at that single aspect of fighting, you would not have been admitted into the Brand, were you not...but all you do is box! Boxing is my nation's heritage, boxing as you know it was born in Albion! I can nullify your tools! And I am bigger, stronger, more diversified in my skills, I can fight you on the feet, or on the mat! If you wish to avoid abject humiliation, you will follow my lead once the bell rings.
Turner: Bullshit. Banner, I respect you, you're a badass and everything, but I joined this Big Banter Brand to take that next step in the wrestling game, to show the world that the Kronk Legacy is still alive, that my boxing can overcome anything. You must be on some good shit if you think I'm going to back down now that I'm one punch away from a title! You beat me, fine, I can live with that. But to beat me without me even giving it my best? That's insane.
Banner: Do what you wish, but do so with the understanding that there are consequences. You best be ready for that!
Turner: Guess I'll be seeing you out there. Don't worry...I'll be ready.

Kevin "The Internet" Anderson: I'm here with Universal Combat Shoot Style's returning Irish Firecracker, Aoife Daley. Ms. Daley, this is your first match back after Eliza Faulkner inflicted an injury on your leg. Do you feel one hundred percent ready?
Aoife Daley: Hell yeah, I do, I got to take a little time off, rest and recover and work a bit on stepping up my game. Now that I'm back, all I want to do now, is to get another shot back at that Openweight title, and get that belt around my waist!
Anderson: My World Wrestling Daily Digest editors and my social media followers would let me have it if I didn't ask you how Senator Steve Phillips is doing.
Aoife: Steve is...on edge, tired, angry, and that's on the good days. I think he wishes he could still wrestle or involve himself in wrestling, but his duty is in politics, and the stress of trying to find common solutions for a country that's he sees to be tearing apart at the seams is too much, even for him. Enough of that, now I'm getting pissed off, too!
Anderson: I usually got the impression that you were always a bit angry in the ring.
Aoife: No! Well...maybe, kinda. But that's a good angry, the sort of angry like "they hit me, so now I'm gonna hit them twice as hard!" Not the "I hate my life and everything in it" sort of angry, if that makes any sense!
Anderson: Um, I'll say it does, even if it doesn't really...but anyway, a few more questions; Sanem Becker, any thoughts on your opponent? She's coming back too from an injury here, and some people say you've had problems with submission artists in the past.
Aoife: Ok, now I really am a little ticked off! I like standing up and knocking people out! But I can grapple just fine! I had some trouble with Renate Barlowe in the past, but I beat her! I got tapped out by Thiago Gracie, but damnit, he's a two time champion, and he's so damn focused on that armbar that he's tapped out a lot of people! And Faulkner got me, but you better realize right now that I'm going to get her back for that! So Sanem Becker, maybe she taps me out, too and you can say that Aoife Daley can't handle submissions, or maybe I knock her the hell out and they have to wire her jaw shut and then you all shut your mouths, too!
Anderson: One more question. You were teaming with Leona Sterling when you were injured before. There's rumors I've heard of Commissioner Alger considering a tag division for UCSS. Would you reform Red Alert for such an occasion?
Aoife: First off, let me say I am going to be cheering hard for Leona in her match on Friday, she's had some tough times lately, but I know she can turn back on the upswing. As for our team, let me be the first to say that Red Alert will be the first team to sign up if they want to do that! But really, do you believe it makes any sense for Universal Combat Shoot Style to have tag belts? I mean, we're martial arts first, pro wrestling second, and we do have tag matches, but do tag belts make any sense? Because they don't really make a whole hell of a lot of sense to me! But that doesn't mean I wouldn't like to fight for them!
Anderson: Thank you very much for your time, Aoife, best of luck on Friday.
---
The Warbringer, Moustapha Ndour: I'm not saying you're wrong...but you're wrong, Renate.
Renate Barlowe: You misunderstand me. I'm not saying you didn't do something impressive. I'm saying that you didn't beat Dogboe and Al-Amin at their best.
Warbringer: And that's because we took them out of their game and made them play ours. Seems pretty impressive to me that a first time team did that.
Barlowe: And now they know what you can do, and they'll adjust. Can you? Will you?
Warbringer: Why adjust if we know what we did worked the first time?
Barlowe: Because you don't wait for them to find out your weaknesses.
Warbringer: Maybe we're just a really bad matchup for them.
Barlowe: And maybe they were dealing with external issues, were burnt out, injured, you don't know. It doesn't matter. Assume they'll be better.
Warbringer: Maybe they should assume we're going to be better. Anyway, don't worry, Renate, Demarcus and I got this. We know the Cyclones aren't going to be easy to beat again. They beat everyone before us. They're fast, smart, tough, and they know how to win. But we have power, size and explosiveness on our side. And we're fresh, unpredictable. They haven't seen nearly close to everything we got.
Barlowe: Good, don't get me wrong. You've done well. But I'm always going to remind you...doing well isn't good enough. Moment you like where you're at is when you stop trying to move forward. Stay hungry.
Warbringer: That reminds me, when's the last time you even had your own match? Getting a little too comfortable at ringside, yourself, Renate?
Barlowe: Really...maybe I am...maybe I am.

Dangerous Nicholas Alger: Yeah, it's the Dangerous One here again. Tonight, Pan African Wrestling and my UCSS are going to go For All The Glory. Three headline title matches. Jean-Pierre Mutombo defending the Pan African Championship against King Bemba. That blowhard, Rory Banner defending our UCSS Openweight title against his own guy, Andronicus Turner...yeah, I'll keep my thoughts to myself on that one. And then, the War Bringers defending the Pan African Tag Championship against the Black Star Cyclones. You got Aoife Daley and Sanem Becker returning. You have Eliza Faulkner and Della Dwight battling. Marcos Angulo says goodbye to UCSS, teaming with the Uberkicker against the Jackson Hole Outlaws. And some more CCW Jr. Heavy cup action, too. I honestly think this is one of the best cards of the year. So be smart and come get some! Watch this on the Senatorial Streaming Service, starting a 8:00 PM, Central Time. www.twitch.tv/senatorphillipsDNA: And by the way, there's some talk going around the net. About UCSS getting tag belts. Some say it's because I want to give my daughter and her friend a shot at some gold. Others ask why UCSS would do tag belts at all. That we're too close to serious sports martial arts to mess around with that. You know what I say? I say the more you people talk about it, the more I want to do this! So, next time around, let's do this. UCSS Tag Championship mini-tournament. Limbtakers, Nicole and Candace. Red Alert, Aoife and Leona, Eagle Justice, you know, Anaba and Francine, and I dunno, maybe let's have fun and see if Ong Daengsri and Minerva Markovic can get along well enough to team up! Next time around, let's do this!

One of the best Office shows of the year, overall, with solid matches up and down the card, an unscheduled debut and a high quality main event that delivered above and beyond the expectations. --- RESULTS Pan African Wrestling x UCSS: For All The Glory 8:00 PM (CT) on Friday, September 25 at the William Taft Bowl in Washington, DC Bonus Match FENYANG vs. Ibrahim Rahman A solid bonus match, with Ibrahim Rahman in charge of the pace for the most part, but FENYANG demonstrated his own abilities in the closing minutes, hitting a double arm facebuster into the Aces High diving headbutt, fighting off Rahman's relentless legwork and submission attempts in the process as he claimed the victory. Main Event: Cage of Destruction: Pan African Championship Bout Jean-Pierre Mutombo(C) vs. King Bemba King Bemba started off strong in this match, countering an avalanche attempt with a powerbomb, hitting a diving splash and landing heavy attacks. But Jean-Pierre Mutombo has not been one of the top names in the Senatorial Office without reason, and would fight back with a purpose, seemingly gaining more energy as the match went along, hitting the Unifier brainbuster side slam and the Supersensational Drop elbow, to retain his title in a teriffic defense, moonwalking in celebration afterwards. Co-Main Event: UCSS Openweight Title Buy-In Bout Virgil de Boer with "Big Banter" Rory Banner vs. Andronicus Turner Before the match, Rory Banner stood at the entryway and spoke to Andronicus Turner. Rory Banner: Mr. Turner, you merely earned the right to have an opportunity for this championship. And because you foolishly refused to work with the Big Banter Brand as I suggested, Andronicus, you will now have to face the newest member of the Brand to secure your match for my Openweight Championship. Do be kind and give a warm welcome to the newest member of my Brand, a man who may be simply without peer in his area of specialty, a man who has defeated the Thais in the Lumpinee, who has beaten his fellow Dutchmen in their kickboxing, who will show no mercy to anyone. Do welcome my good friend, Virgil de Boer. As it was, with the match having shifted from a title match to a "buy-in bout," Andronicus Turner found himself in the fight of his life against a Muay Thai machine instead of Banner. And while Virgil de Boer started off strong, Turner would fight his way back into the match, repeatedly beating the ten count at the nine, including at the end of the third round, and landing slick, ferocious combinations that found their mark repeatedly. Just when it seemed Turner was turning the tables, though, de Boer would hit a vicious combination finishing with a sliding knee strike to deny Turner the title match he believed he was entitled to. Co-Main Event: Cyclones vs. War Bringers II: Pan African Tag Championship Bout The War Bringers(Demarcus Browning(Blackrose) and Moustapha Ndour)(C) with Renate Barlowe vs. The Black Star Cyclones(Layla Al Amin(Phoenix Rising) and Esi Dogboe) Was the first match an anomaly? The results here suggest that may have been the case, as the Black Star Cyclones were back in top form, while Browning and Warbringer were not fruitless in their endeavors, both landing their share, the Cyclones were back on track and coordinating well once again. It would be Esi Dogboe who would reclaim the Pan African Tag Championship, hitting Moustapha Ndour with her Black Star Cannonball senton to do so. Will these teams meet up again for a rubber match? Double Return Aoife Daley vs. Sanem Becker A high level match that lived up to expectations, with both Daley and Becker on top of their game, although the first two rounds would go easily to the Irish Firecracker, as she landed heavy strikes throughout the first two stanzas, closing out the second round with her signature Firecracker Punch to the midsection. Even so, Sanem Becker was able to hold on, hitting a few big suplexes in the third and locking in her signature crossface chickenwing hold, the Backlund Special to close things out. Della Dwight with "Textbook" Tim Dwight vs. Eliza Faulkner(CWC) with Mackenzie Bergeron Eliza Faulkner may well be headed towards contender status in UCSS with a few more matches like this. Faulkner was one step ahead of her fellow prospect in Dwight, with multiple tosses out of the ring, and a third round win with a bridging exploder suplex pin. Marcos Angulo Farewell Match Marcos Angulo(TIPWF) and Frank Van Sloan vs. The Jackson Hole Outlaws(Byron Worthy and Roy Carter) with Red Masterson(Warrior Pro) As Marcos Angulo goes full time to the TIPWF, he took part in a solid match on his way out, with Frank Van Sloan showcasing his slick combination attacks. Even as Angulo managed to keep pace on the mat, Roy Carter would go one step further, and forced a stoppage from Swingin' Suzie, by means of a back mount shotei series, a call that didn't sit well with the Tijuana Wreckin' Ball, who stormed to the back without a word, not that he would have said much with a win, either, though. CCW Junior Heavy Cup Anaba Camacho vs. Jamie Tomasi An intense battle between two excellent grapplers, with Jamie Tomasi doing his best to wreck Anaba Camacho's arm, and tossed the amateur star out of the ring with suplexes on multiple points. Just when it seemed that the Armbar Disciple was going to find himself headed to Golden Touch with a win, Camacho hit a brutal series of moves, from the Eagleplex uproot high angle German, to the Eagle Fall sheer drop angle slam, and finally, a hammerlock bridging suplex hold for the win in the third round. CCW Junior Heavy Cup Ali Ahmed Mehrmohammdi vs. Wesley Rakoto One of the better matches of the night, with Rakoto and Mehrmohammdi matching each other move for move for much of the match, but it would be the Nigerian Prince who would gain an entry to the rest of the CCW Cup when he hit the Air Nigeria diving elbow drop for the pin. Leona Sterling(Phoenix Rising) vs. Leslie B. A two round massacre in favor of the Scottish MMA crossover star, that only reached the third round on Leslie B's stubborn defiance to lose too early. Nonetheless, Sterling made sure to finish her off inside a minute of the third, landing a deadly backdrop suplex to do the deed. Sterling seemed rejuvenated, even a bit cocky in this match, going up top at one point and taking next to no damage as she went about her business. --- Match of the Night: Andronicus Turner vs. Virgil de Boer -As bad as it was for the fans(and Turner) to see Rory Banner step away from a title match, the resulting contest was a hard hitting, heart felt war between the debuting de Boer and Andronicus Turner, who fought his best in a losing situation and likely gained a good deal of fans in the process. This was a tough call, with the Mutombo-Bemba, the Pan African Tag title match, Daley-Becker and the CCW matches all delivering above average quality. Performer of the Night: Jean-Pierre Mutombo -The Pan African Champion turned back a dangerous threat from King Bemba, managing to neutralize the Ugandan's power as the match went along and finished up with his usual style, and gained the Performer of the Night as a result. --- Jean-Pierre Mutombo: Let me offer my many thanks to all of my wonderful supporters! Without your amazing help, this would never be possible! Yes, I, Jean-Pierre am still your Pan African Champion! This is a belt I am very proud of, and one that I only hold because I always have my people that are lifting me up each match I have! I must also thank my great opponent King Bemba, because he forces me to accept the energy of the people, because he makes me be the best Jean-Pierre that I can be! He is not easy to defeat! But now I move forward! And I see two matches that are in my future. The first match that I see in my future is the match with Mr. GPC! Yes, Mr. GPC is the only one who is still in front of my return to fight Young Blood! So, the next Pan African show, I challenge you to meet me in your Opening Main Event! Fight me, and we will see who is the real challenge for the Number One and Young Blood! --- The scene in the Big Banter Brand locker room before the arrival of Andronicus Turner could be described in one word: tense. Sanem Becker seemed conflicted between the desire to celebrate her win, and to get out of the building as fast as possible. Virgil de Boer had already changed and was wearing a combination worthy of a GQ cover. As for Rory Banner, the Brand's boss was uncharacteristically silent, staring up at the ceiling as he slowly paced the floor. Eventually, Turner pushed the door open, and Banner snapped to life. "Big Banter" Rory Banner: I was beginning to wonder if you were seeking to avoid... Andronicus Turner: Can it, Banner! What the hell was that? Banner: I already informed you that the time... Turner: No! You and I, we had an agreement, and you went back on it! You broke your word! Banner: You chose to disobey my requests and unthinkingly betrayed the unity of this Brand. As it was, I had a surprise that I was originally going to unveil for Nicholas Alger...but instead, you unwittingly volunteered to be the recepient. Virgil de Boer: It simply had to happen that way. No hard feelings. Turner: You know, I don't have any, as far as you go. Let's see what happens if I actually have time to prepare and know what's in front of me the next time we fight. Virgil: That is assuming there will be a next time. Turner: Oh, there will be, don't worry about that. Now, you, Becker, get out of here, I have something I need to hash out with Banner here. Virgil: Very well then, not like I wasn't already on my way out. Sanem Becker: I won! But I am going to be very sore...the bones of my jaw all hurt... And with that, de Boer and Becker both exited the room, leaving Banner and Turner on their own. Banner: Very well now, what exactly do you wish to do now? Are you going to try to punch me out, to pummel me into the ground? Are you going to tell me to fook off? Instead, it would behoove you to listen for a moment. I founded the Brand to force opportunities for the elite, those who possess skills and experience far above and beyond the typical fodder that Alger prefers. But it is key that we do not usurp each other's success at the wrong moment. Darryl Jenkins did not deserve to waltz in from another company and leapfrog his way to the top. That is why I had you block his path. But I did so believing that you understood that we maintain our solidarity as a unit. That unity must be maintained! Instead, you told me you intended to take what could have been an easy night for the both of us, and turn it into a potential disaster for the Brand. That was going to undermine everything I have so carefully planned out. For if you fought me hard enough that I had to exert myself, you may well have suffered an injury from which you would not return. Your time shall come, but not until I have done what needs to be done with this belt. The Brand must not be pitted against itself. Was it not one of your nation's presidents that stated "a house divided cannot stand?" Remember that, Turner. Turner: That's a lot to take in. A lot of bullshit. You want to talk me down, fine, not the place, not the time. But earlier was the time and place, and you make every excuse in the book to get out of that. All these plans and shit, sounds great until you think about all those fancy words, and then it just sounds like a load of excuses to keep me from getting to take my shot at your belt! You talk about not wanting to risk injuring me, but you sicced that maniac de Boer on me like a rabid dog charging out of nowhere! You never filled me in on any of those plans before, why should I believe you didn't make it all up to cover your ass? Are we really on the same team, or am I just playing the pawn to your king? Banner: All the pieces have their role. Turner: Careful... Banner: You Americans don't even believe in kings, anyhow. But royalty, you love your royalty, even more than we Englishmen do. Your aristocracy get elected to political office, they act in the movies, they play your sports, run your companies, and you worship them! We of the Big Banter Brand, we are royals of a sort, the top of the line, the ones who reign over the middling masses. You wish to remain a part of this rarified company, do you not? Then do play along. If you're out, consider first how you received this contract, how you recieved multiple opportunities which you have not followed through on, how the Big Banter Brand has kept you from being lost in the shuffle. And while you do not believe me now, know that I will procure your chance for the gold in due time. But it will be on my time, not yours. So tell me now, are you in, or are you out. An answer is requsite. Turner: Fine...you want an answer? Andronicus Turner picks up one of his boxing gloves by the laces, and without warning, swings it into Banner's face. While the sweat soaked leather impacts with a resounding smack, the Englishman seems more shocked than hurt by a large margin. Turner: Checkmate, there's your answer. I'm done. --- As Marcos Angulo headed to the back following his loss to the Jackson Hole Outlaws, World Wrestling Daily Digest's Kevin Anderson met him on his way back. Kevin "The Internet" Anderson: In a stoppage that is already being heavily questioned across the internet wrestling community, Roy Carter forced an early end to your last UCSS match tonight. Any thoughts about that? Marcos Angulo: Mierda. She...made bullshit decision. Anderson: You were having an even match with the Jackson Hole Outlaws up to that point, do you think you'll want a rematch with them in the TIWPF? They're frequent visitors to the fed, after all. Marcos: Yes. Drifters kill them. And with that, Angulo pushed past Kevin Anderson as he continued to the back. --- Renate Barlowe: I know you want the third match. But you two need to wait. Take your time, get back on track. The Warbringer, Moustapha Ndour: Waiting's not my style. I want something, I go take it. Demarcus said... Barlowe: Demarcus has his own big match tonight and if he wins that, he has another title to focus on! I want the War Bringers to be at your best when you get that third match with the Cyclones. You do this right away, and you make every mistake in the book. You give them the momentum. You don't take the time to get better to fix what went wrong. And you don't make it as big of a match as it should be, because that's how you get paid, you promote, you build things up. You don't just keep doing the same match three shows in a row! Warbringer: You seem mad, Renate, hey, we lost one, we come back and it's like it never happened. Barlowe: You lose again, and it's like your win never happened. Warbringer: Seriously, we can handle this. But you're not wrong. We probably do need to take a few shows and build this up. Let Demarcus fight that Pink Justice guy tonight over in Sakura, everybody says he's losing...but I know he can manage that. And next time around, that reminds me, I was asking when you last got in the ring. Maybe this time, I watch at ringside and you go break legs and get paid, throwback style. Barlowe: That does sound appealing...

Leona Sterling "You'd think after that show I'd be feelin' a whole lot better about everything. Sure, easy win, helps get me back on track, all of that. And victory's exactly the sorta thing to put me in a good mood.
Some English bastard provin' himself a fuckin' coward makin' excuses for not defendin' his title? That's gonna put me right back to flarin' my temper. Funny thing is, it's not the first time I've seen it take place. See, I was watching the whole Young Blood shite go through, heard Blackwood's harsh words towards him, after the fuckin' Stanford Bradley... thing. He just decided not to show up and sent that idiot in his place. You, Banner, fuckin' showed up, then hid behind the new guy. I'm not sure which of you is worse. But yer never gonna catch me duckin' out of a fight. If I can stand, if I can raise my fists, I'm walking to that ring, and I'm damn well fighting. Title or not.
Now, what's this all mean? Nothin', really. 's not like I'm gonna suddenly challenge Big Fuckin' Banter out of the blue. I got other stuff comin' up that demands my attention, like winnin' those brand-new tag titles. But I'm thinkin' it's high time I got myself back into full fight training... no more 'maintaining'. It's time I pushed myself to another level.
Who knows? Maybe I will find myself huntin' for Rory Banner's fuckin' head. Because god knows a proper woman of Glasgow like myself would love to put some loudmouth English fuck in his place.
For now, though... well, I'll be cheerin' Turner on to knock yer fuckin' loudmouth head right off, Banner. Me 'n' the rest of the world, I'll bet."

Morgan "Midas" Matthews: I am pleased to announce that I have a special event to offer for this Friday's Golden Touch Promotions event. Anthony Kalb: And as the Chairman, I wanted to be here as well as we announce the next phase in the CCW Junior Heavy Cup. For the last month's cycle of shows, every event has featured two CCW Cup matches, in which each of our affiliate partners have selected their entry into this portion of the tournament. Now, here on Golden Touch Promotions, the rest of the competition will unfold. Midas: I will say that I was not entirely enthusiastic with the concept of this event when Mr. Kalb first proposed it. After all, Golden Touch is intended to be a premium grade promotion. We feature only the highest quality in talent. So when I was told that a tournament composed of lesser known individuals, underweight ones at that was going to be held in my ring, I did not take kindly to such a proposal. Why would I want to feature an entire tournament of vanilla midgets? Kalb: Um... Midas: But after much debate and discussion, the positives became apparent. People want to see the big money matches. Generally this means the top dollar draws. But people also enjoy their low class game shows, and why? Partly for the spectacle, but also, partly to see their fellow commoners fight for a chance to raise themselves in winning a substantial reward. And with that realization, I decided that this CCW Cup could now become a real success if I sweeten the pot for the winner. Yes, whichever wrestler makes it to the final will be met with the trophy, with a potential opportunity in their fed...and with a fifteen thousand dollar check! Kalb: I've spoken with every individual promoter in the Office, and I can guarantee that whoever wins this Cup is going to be pleased with how this impacts their future in their respective promotion. The Senatorial Office is proud of our hard working, dynamic Junior Heavyweight talent, and I for one have enjoyed the first round of the CCW, quite a bit. I can't wait to see how this wraps up, I'm sure that we'll have at least a few "hundos" taking place as a result! Do check out World Wrestling Daily Digest later this week for an in-depth prediction for the tournament in Fast Eddie Edison's Quick Picks. And let's also not forget about the one featured non-tournament bout. Midas: One that I was more than happy to make happen, the Battle of the Bulk, taking the two biggest muscleheads in pro wrestling and putting them against each other! Wrestle Parade's Flex Steele and Lightning Pro and Proving Ground's Gary Gear, you don't get bigger than that! And while the eight participants in the CCW may not be stars for now...there's no better stage to shine than the one Golden Touch Promotions provides!

Programming NotesPromotion: Golden Touch Promotions Title: Golden Touch #8: CCW Jr. Heavy Cup Time: (Following the conclusion of All Time Boxing's 8:00 PM (CT) broadcast) Location: Senatorial Streaming Service www.twitch.tv/senatorphillipsGolden Touch Promotions is up this week for the Office's featured broadcast, and will be hosting the remainder of the "Cruiserweights Can't Wait" CCW Jr. Heavy Cup, featuring eight of the Office's top Junior Heavyweights as they fight for a CCW Cup, a cash prize and future opporunities. In addition, Wrestle Parade's Flex Steele goes up against Lightning Pro's Gary Gear in what has been promoted as the "Battle of the Bulk." --- Fast Eddie's Quick Picks for Golden Touch #8: CCW CupBy "Fast" Eddie Edison Cruiserweights Can't Wait, can they? Well, that's a philosophy that I can get behind. Over the last month, the Senatorial Office has assembled a big junior heavyweight tournament that finishes up on this Friday. It's not on the level of an AAW Ironman tournament,(Come on, Eddie, check your bias, ed.) but I'd be lying if I wasn't intrigued by a lot of these matchups. Usually with these things, I just let you know who I favor and a tidbit of explanation. Well, this time, I'm going to see if I can't call all the shots. Someone of my experience and my understanding of the sport has to get this somewhat right, after all. So without any further delay, let's get down to some bracketology: CCW Jr. Heavy Cup Quarter Final Match Hobo Harry(PEWA) vs. Daniel Ness(Dwight Gym) Daniel Ness is now the head trainer for the Office after Textbook Dwight went into semi-retirement. He's a legit top grade amateur wrestler who had some success on the pro side of things, but that was a long time back. Ness still is pretty tough for a guy as broken down physically as he is. Hobo's older, but he's as well preserved as a fly stuck in amber, and that Hobosault is too dangerous not mention. So, consider Hobo Harry to be my pick here. CCW Jr. Heavy Cup Quarter Final Match Luchador Sorpresa(Santana Family Wrestling) vs. Vice Versa(TIPWF)Luchador Sorpresa seems like a pretty competent lucha guy, but Vice Versa's shown more, been around in the big leagues longer, and from her last few times around, will do whatever Luchador does better than he does it. Still, I have to wonder if Sorpresa's got a bit more than we've seen so far. CCW Jr. Heavy Cup Quarter Final Match Kaede Kinoshita(Lightning Pro) vs. Elle Barrett(Wacker Drive Revival) On one hand, you have an older technician who can handle her business, on the other, you have a rising star who's about a few steps away from doing big things. I'm going with the latter. Barrett is probably slightly favored, really, so this is the one time I go against the odds in the opening round, but I think Kinoshita's got more to prove and has more tools to work with. CCW Jr. Heavy Cup Quarter Final Match Anaba Camacho(UCSS) vs. Ali Ahmed Mehrmohammdi(Pan African Wrestling) Toughest call for me, but it all comes down to their first two matches. Ali's good, and got a good win over Wesley Rakoto. But Camacho impressed me more with how she beat Jamie Tomasi. She took all his armwork, and when it looked like she was about done, she explodes and just destroys him in about a minute. So, I'm thinking that she should be able to do the same here, take Ali's best shot and then wreck his day. Also, this has absolutely nothing to do with the fact that I don't want to try to pronounce or type Ali's full name again. Nothing at all. Semi Finals Hobo Harry vs. Vice Versa Now we're in the uncharted territory, the theoretical matches. This one's not easy to figure out. Vice has the wider range here, but Hobo's so good at what he does, I'm gonna send him on to the finals. I predict Vice gets a bunch of near falls and a few in the ropes before Hobo hits a Hobosault halfway across the ring to win. Semi Finals Kaede Kinoshita vs. Anaba CamachoNow this is what I think could be the best of the show. These two are different in their style, but both of them have a bunch of ways to finish the match quickly. I got Anaba with the slight edge, where Kaeda does a lot of things pretty well, Anaba's really good at her specialty, and will win this with her suplexes. Battle of the Bulk Flex Steele(Wrestle Parade) vs. Gary Gear(Lightning Pro) Yeah, Flex wins this because he might have stumbled onto a treadmill at some point in his life. No hope that Gear ever did, and he gasses out and loses. Finals Hobo Harry vs. Anaba Camacho Here we go, the one for all the marbles. And this is where I think the Hobo's going to be tested like none of the other matchups test him. Anaba is going to stick to him like glue, and throw him around over and over. Victory's so close, she can taste it. And just when it seems that Harry's about to lose this badly, Camacho's conditioning slips and he counters a suplex attempt and rolls her up for the win. So, your winner of the CCW Cup, Hobo Harry! Out of all the competitors, he has the best wins on his resume, he's a damn good mat wrestler for a guy known for his high flying and is still tough enough to fight through some tough stretches in this. Anyone who can last two friggin' decades in the PEWA and still operate at a high level also earns some bonus points here. Keep in mind, that I do not want you to go out there and use this for betting purposes...but feel free to brag to your friends and shoot me a thanks on social media when you call this whole thing right. Anyway, this is your old friend, "Fast" Eddie Edison, giving you the picks you want at the speed you need.
