Big Robert Montgomery: Finally, back home again. We're opening the Wacker Drive Revival club back up in Chi-Town, with our own championship on the line in the main event, with Mr. Moonsault fighting King Bemba for The Loop. We've got a Preliminary Main Event thanks to our brothers and sisters from Kyoto, with Lightning Pro putting GPC's Victorious Medal up against Nishimura Endo. We've got our mojo workin' again, and it's about damn time to do this the right way, Chicago style. There's been a lot of talk about Midas wanting to close us down and fold us up, but we don't play that game. Wacker Drive's not going away any time soon if I got anything to say about that. L-Pro's got our backs. And together, we got a show that I think you'll enjoy for this Friday.   Wacker Drive Revival x Lightning Pro: Sweet Home Chicago8:00 PM (CT) on Friday, January 22nd at Wacker Drive Revival in Chicago, IL Main Event: The Loop Championship Bout Mr. Moonsault(C) vs. King BembaRepresenting the D-Team, Mr. Moonsault looks to defend The Loop against the figurehead of Bemba's Royal Court, the Destroyer himself, King Bemba. After a rough one sided loss to Crusher Honda at Lariats and Legislators 2020, Marcus Xavier now looks to restore his pride by taking on another of the Office's heaviest hitters, one on one. King Bemba has declared since his move to Wacker Drive to conquer the promotion in short order, and seeks to replicate Honda's approach in doing so. D-Team vs. Bemba's Royal Court D-Man Daunte Thomas and Astrid Johansson vs. Esther Musambi and Yetunde OyaBefore Moonsault and Bemba face off for The Loop, two teams of their teammates will square off in the penultimate match of the night, with the never before seen pairing of the D-Man and Astrid Johansson up against Bemba's Royal Court. Both Thomas and Oya won in emphatic fashion on last year's final WDR event, and this promises to be a heated confrontation with the no holds barred street fighting tactics of Thomas, the high impact assault of Johansson, the submission mastery of Oya and the brutal power backbreakers of Musambi. Windy City Royale Phil Mercury vs. DUDE Smith vs. Tony the Rod vs. Sarita Jean Watkins vs. Big Robert Montgomery vs. JT Bosco vs. Freight Train McMichaelson vs. Ibrahim RahmanSeven team representatives from WDR and L-Pro's Rahman will meet up in this over the top royale. There will be no shortage of characters, or variety in this match, and while there is no set reward for the victor, winning this match should go a long way towards setting up future opportunities. Kengo Tamura's L-Pro Return Kengo Tamura vs. Ai Tanaka with Masa TokugawaLeaving the PEWA after returning at the PEWA 20th anniversary event, the Ronin, Kengo Tamura makes a long awaited return to L-Pro, having competed in the organization in the mid 2000s. Tamura arrives following a superb brawl with fellow PEWA Original, P-Dogg, and will be welcomed by the Apocalyptic Disciple, Ai Tanaka. While Tanaka's mentor, Masa Tokugawa is still healing up from a concussion delivered by Sam Hall, he will be at ringside for her, in what promises to be one of the most violent clashes of the night. Tanaka has been seeking a chance to step up as of late, and Tamura has called out a number of the L-Pro roster members, including Victorious Medal champion, GPC. Miss Bauhaus and Josie J. Jett vs. "Total MDK" Taylor Ngyuen and Emerald SantiagoThe two songstresses of the Blue Notes will go up against the reckless energy of Total MDK and the Queen's Road approach of Santiago, both representing the NBNF stable in what should be a fast moving tag encounter. Of note, Ngyuen and Santiago have both impressed as of late in Sakura Pro, and if they can continue such momentum here, should give NBNF a boost towards a future shot at The Loop. Ayako Miyamoto vs. Takayuki UedaA promising young prospect and the top star of the L-Pro Dojo meet here, with both Miyamoto and Ueda showing skilled suplexes as their bread and butter. While Ueda did not fare well in his main roster debut against a brutal Koji Sawada, he has been touted as a can't miss future ace of the company, and expectations are still high for him. Miyamoto's obsession over landing the perfect German suplex may drive her to excellence, or stall her out in this one. White Hot(Keiko Maeda(Phoenix Rising) and Rei Hasegawa) and the Sparks(Saburo Aoki Jr. and Yuki Okamura) vs. Super Grey Machine, Yuriko Masamune, "Rookie Killer" Koji Sawada and Kosuke "Choppu" AraiThe full White Hot stable is in action again, taking on three of the longest tenured L-Pro members and the youngest grumpy veteran of the roster in Koji Sawada. Watch for Saburo Aoki Jr. in this one, as he generally shines in these sorts of showcase matches. Preliminary Main Event: Victorious Medal Championship Bout G.P. Christopher(C) vs. Nishimura EndoA match made when Endo defeated Wrecker Yamamoto, Yuki Okamura and Sam Hall to claim his title shot, and one which could see GPC once again showing his remarkable resiliency in title defense situations in the new year. Christopher went one and one across the two nights of Lariats 2020, with a second loss in his career to Todd Colton marring the double Preliminary Main Event showing for the L-Pro star. Even so, he should be the solid favorite here, with Christopher's determination and skill more than matching Endo's fierce power and veteran instincts on paper. |

www.twitch.tv/senatorphillipsTonight at 8:00 PM CT on the Senatorial Streaming Service, Wacker Drive Revival returns to its home base at the eponymous club in Chicago, IL, with Lightning Pro along for the ride! The Loop is on the line, with Mr. Moonsault, Marcus Xavier representing the champion D-Team against King Bemba, leading his Royal Court! G.P. Christopher defends the L-Pro Victorious Medal in the prestigious Preliminary Main Event as he takes on Worldwide Conquest's Nishimura Endo, a former Medal holder in his own right! Be sure to tune in! --- Both championship matches have been prefaced today with a streaming confrontation between the competitors: Mr. Moonsault: I have a lot of respect for my opponent. King Bemba calls himself the Destroyer, and I have seen him live up to that name many times. Some have questioned why I decided to take him on by myself for this defense of The Loop when I could have called for a team match or a series. The answer is simple. After failing against Crusher Honda, a similar type of opponent, I have something to prove. I want to show that I still belong in the Office Top Five. I want to show that Wacker Drive is home to the best. Not just for me. Not just for the D-Team, even. But for all of Chicago. And the way to do that, is to beat the best, at their best. If I can beat King Bemba, I will prove that I belong in that elite group. And if I beat him, I want to talk about a match with Salvador Sosa at the next Golden Touch to set up a match for the Number One. King Bemba: I hear a lot of a word from this man! I hear him say "if," over and over on this stream! He cannot say with any confidence that he will defeat me! And that is only the truth! He was right about one thing! I am what I claim to be! I am the Destroyer, I am the Conqueror! I am the King! And soon, my Royal Court and I will be the rightful owners of this trophy that you call The Loop! And then I can seek my vengeance against Jean-Pierre Mutombo, and not only will I remove the Number One from his possession, but I will also take claim of the Pan African Championship that has avoided me for so long! I do not speak of "if" this will happen! I claim it with my royal words! Moonsault: You don't get what I'm saying. What I'm saying is that every match can go either way. Any given Sunday, if this was football. But I don't take any match that I don't think I can win. And that includes this one. Bemba: Crusher Honda entirely ground you into fine dust! What chance to you have against me? Moonsault: More of a chance than you think. I'm part of the championship team here. Last I remember, you couldn't get the job done back in Pan African Wrestling. Bemba: You could not have dared to have done what I did! Moonsault: My team's the most successful in Wacker Drive history. You really should check yourself before you keep casting shade on us. Bemba: The only thing that will be checked upon will be your lifeless frame when I finish with you tonight! I will claim what is mine, and I will do it over your broken body! Moonsault: We'll see about that. --- G.P. Christopher: So, first title defense of the new year, and it's here in Chicago. Not gonna lie, I can't wait until I get back to Kyoto and get to see the GP Club again, all you lovely ladies, just one more month and I'm back in town. But for now, I got Nishimura Endo, one of the only real challengers left that haven't taken a shot at this. I keep hearing that Endo's only got a few matches left in him, that he's way past his prime, but I'm not seeing that. He looked pretty damn good in his last few matches, and when the rest of Worldwide Conquest got themselves deep sixed, he kept moving ahead. So, I'm not taking this lightly. And after Todd Colton beat me...cough-again-cough, well, let's just say the King of the Openers's got something to prove here. Nishimura Endo: (Translated from Japanese) <Restoration. That is what this match means to me. A restoration of the mission that led me to join ALEXANDER and Tarkhan. A restoration of my own ambitions. I do not hold any grudge with G.P. Christopher. He has brought much pride to Lightning Pro and to the Victorious Medal and to his own name. But I am not focused on him. The greatest lesson I have learned in all my years of wrestling, and in life itself, is that I cannot focus on the other people. If I am to succeed, it is myself that is what will bring it about. If I fight my very best fight tonight, then I will leave with the Medal. I believe I can do what so many others have not. I must believe.> GPC: And I hope you take your best shot, Endo-san, because I want to, I need to elevate my game past where it's at. Make me find my next limit, make me go past what I've done so far! Endo: <It is not I who needs to question if he always puts forth his best effort.> GPC: Hey, when you're working the schedule I manage, when you're in demand like I am, you might find some nights where you're a bit off, too. Don't worry, I'm not taking it easy against you like I did against Nakajima-san. I'm not on the second night of a back to back like I was against Colton. Every damn time the Victorious Medal's up for grabs, I fight with everything I got. And this is going to be no exception.

A top notch main event surpassed the already-high expectations on a show full of knockouts, drag out brawls and fast paced battles, a proper card for Wacker Drive's return to its home base. RESULTS Wacker Drive Revival x Lightning Pro: Sweet Home Chicago 8:00 PM (CT) on Friday, January 22nd at Wacker Drive Revival in Chicago, IL Bonus Match Crusher Honda with Wrecker Yamamoto vs. Tarkhan the Mangler with ALEXANDER  A heavy hitting slugfest met those who stuck around after the main event, as Tarkhan the Mangler pummeled Crusher Honda with a storm of backfists, prompting multiple instances of a concerned Wrecker Yamamoto jumping up on the apron. Honda would answer with a variety of her own killer head drops, but in the end, it would be a signature Mangler Knee Drop off the top that would finish off Honda for a signature win from Tarkhan the Mangler. Could the Mongolian finally be back on track? Main Event: The Loop Championship Bout Mr. Moonsault(C) vs. King Bemba  Simply superb, both Marcus Xavier and King Bemba fought their hearts out in a main event that more than lived up to its promise as neither man veered outside his respective strengths and both put forth an exceptional effort. Moonsault would unleash his trademark dive, both from a standing position and a corner springboard, with several top rope moonsaults landing in the ropes, and a cartwheel variant to the outside would thrill the Chicago crowd, but would also lead to a Royal Annihilation double powerbomb death valley bomb combo on the floor, the second of the match after Xavier kicked out of the first. While the fight would continue just as heatedly back in the ring, it would not be a dive from Moonsault or a power move from Bemba that would end things, but a counter inside cradle from King Bemba that would trap Marcus Xavier's shoulders to the mat for the three count, and winning The Loop for Bemba's Royal Court. D-Team vs. Bemba's Royal Court D-Man Daunte Thomas and Astrid Johansson vs. Esther Musambi and Yetunde Oya  The styles of each of these teams was clearly contrasted here, as Musambi and Oya's more esoteric approaches met with the straight forward smashmouth attack of the D-Team representatives. Daunte Thomas did the bulk of the heavy lifting, surviving a variety of moves from both foes, including a dreaded cursed mist from Oya that wouldn't dissipate, but Johansson would finish things up with a swan dive crossbody off the slingshot on Musambi for the win. Windy City Royale Phil Mercury vs. DUDE Smith vs. Tony the Rod vs. Sarita Jean Watkins vs. Big Robert Montgomery vs. JT Bosco vs. Freight Train McMichaelson vs. Ibrahim Rahman  A match that started out as chaotically as expected, but it would not be until it came down to the final four that the match started to truly take shape, with Ibrahim Rahman catching both DUDE Smith and Tony the Rod with flash pins. JT Bosco would amazingly pull off a rolling cradle on Rahman, and survived a pin attempt before a sky high style Bosco Bomber would earn a win for the Action Pack loyalist. Kengo Tamura's L-Pro Return Kengo Tamura vs. Ai Tanaka with Masa Tokugawa  To say that Kengo Tamura was motivated to make a strong impression for his return to L-Pro would be an understatement. Tamura outstruck the striker, showing that in spite of his recent loss to P-Dogg in his final PEWA match, that there's still gas in the tank for the vet. On top of it, several Deliver from Yokohama diving sentons would finish the match, with the second one putting Tanaka down for the count by knockout. Miss Bauhaus and Josie J. Jett vs. "Total MDK" Taylor Ngyuen and Emerald Santiago  Two teams that fought fiercely, with Emerald Santiago's elbows and Josie Jett's big boots standing out. Even so, it would be Miss Bauhaus who would bring the match to its conclusion, with a spinebuster into a back layout arm spreading pin on Taylor Nguyen for the victory. Ayako Miyamoto vs. Takayuki Ueda  Two young, promising wrestlers put on a solidly competitive match here, Miyamoto coming close to winning at several points with her signature Perfect German Suplex, and Ueda answering with a big plancha to the outside, but it would be a back seated london dungeon style top double wrist lock that earned Ueda his first ever win on the main roster. White Hot(Keiko Maeda(Phoenix Rising) and Rei Hasegawa) and the Sparks(Saburo Aoki Jr. and Yuki Okamura) vs. Super Grey Machine, Yuriko Masamune, "Rookie Killer" Koji Sawada and Kosuke "Choppu" Arai  A good battle for most of the members in this match, but nobody did better than Rei Hasegawa, going hold for hold with multiple members of the veteran crew, and rolling up the Rookie Killer with a leg roll clutch to earn the win for White Hot. Koji Sawada was reportedly furious after the finish, and had to be herded away by his teammates in the aftermath. Preliminary Main Event: Victorious Medal Championship Bout G.P. Christopher(C) vs. Nishimura Endo  The Preliminary Main Event saw G.P. Christopher revert to his PEWA roots, perhaps taking out some frustrations from his recent loss to Todd Colton with repeated rough tactics, and never seemed to let up before the Destiny Driver double arm piledriver finished the match, and Nishimura Endo by knockout. GPC is looking nearly unstoppable at this point as far as the Victorious Medal goes. --- Match of the Night: Mr. Moonsault vs. King Bemba -Without a doubt, this match more than deserved the honors, with Moonsault and Bemba both bringing their best to a closely contested match that thrilled the fans and elevated both competitors, and considering the stature each already posess, that's saying a lot. Performer of the Night: King Bemba -While G.P. Christopher and JT Bosco both could have claimed this, King Bemba's win over an in-form Mr. Moonsault with The Loop on the line was as good as it gets --- Injury Report Nishimura Endo: Moderate Concussion (Three Month Medical Suspension) -A Destiny Driver double arm piledriver from GPC ended Endo's hopes for the Medal, and will put him on the shelf for a number of months, with a confirmed concussion. Ai Tanaka: Bruised Rib (One Month Medical Suspension) -Kengo Tamura's Delivery from Yokohama diving senton put an abrupt end to his match with Ai Tanaka, and will keep her out of action for a month as her ribs heal from the high impact attack. Crusher Honda: Liver Blow (No Medical Suspension) -Tarkhan's diving Mangler Knee Drop caught Honda in the liver, and finished their match. It seems that Honda will not miss any time, fortunately. --- Directly after the show went off the air, a big confrontation took place in the ring as Honda refused medical attention and a furious Wrecker Yamamoto seemed almost frantically split between checking on her teammate and confronting Tarkhan the Mangler and ALEXANDER. Wrecker Yamamoto: (Translated from Japanese) <You will pay for this! I will shatter you, you big glass cannon!> Tarkhan the Mangler: <Haha, if Honda cannot shatter me, you will not do so! I am not shatterable!> Wrecker: <Look at me when I talk to you! You hurt Megumi! I want to destroy you!> Tarkhan: <Oh! This is very funny! You are mad because your friend got hurt! But the two of you love to hurt everyone else! What do you call it? Taste of own medicine? That is what she got! Do not be angry that it is done to you!> Wrecker: <I will rip you to pieces right here, right now!> ALEXANDER: <Calm down there, you attack Tarkhan, you attack me as well. And I promise that you will be joining your special friend in the medical room if you try that, so do please calm yourself, Yamamoto. Worldwide Conquest wants to win titles, we do not want to have to injure people to do so. But if you leave us no chance, we will do whatever we must.> Even with ALEXANDER's admonitions, Wrecker Yamamoto lunged at Tarkhan. The Mongolian managed to parry her clumsy, unfocused attack, with ALEXANDER managing to pinion her arms behind her back. Before Tarkhan could spin into a uraken, though, G.P. Christopher slid into the ring, causing the two to release Wrecker and step back through the ropes. G.P. Christopher: Damn, couldn't even wait up for me to join the party here, could you? Wrecker: <Those two bastards!> ALEXANDER: <You say that, but you ally yourself with this man! He is more reckless than either of you combined! He is more arrogant than anybody in our promotion and makes a joke out of the Victorious Medal by forcing it to be booked in the opening match! Nishimura Endo may have to retire now from what he has done! I vow that Tarkhan and I will avenge our fellow conqueror! We began our message with what we did to Honda! You will not escape our wrath, you will not escape our conquest! Nobody will and if they oppose us, we will make sure to make them regret it!> GPC: Yeah, sure. I beat you. I can beat Tarkhan, it's not like he can keep off medical suspension for long, anyway. I obviously beat the hell out of Endo. Look, he knew what he was in for. I didn't go out of my way to spike him through the mat. But if the chance is there, you think I'm showing any mercy? It's a cold world, and a harsh game. Things happen. But let me tell you something about regrets. You try to screw with the Duo, and you better believe I'm not going to let you get away with that. You don't mess with my two big bad Japanese sisters. Yeah, they can handle themselves, but I like a good fight. And you guys just pissed me off anyway. Tarkhan: <Little man, run away!> ALEXANDER: <You think we didn't come prepared, did you? I am a descendent of Alexander the Great!> Tarkhan: <And I, of Genghis Khan!> ALEXANDER: <The point is that tactics are not just something I study, they are in my very lineage, in my blood! And you are outnumbered!> GPC: You know, I'm not some super genius galaxy brain type, but doing a little basic math, and there's Wrecker, there's me, that's two. There's Tarkhan, there's you. Two. And unless I'm going blind or can't count, that means... Out of nowhere, none other than the Outlaw, Sam Hall slid into the ring, and blasted GPC in the head with a running Outlaw Boot from behind. Before Wrecker could react, Tarkhan picked her up and threw her over the top rope. ALEXANDER and Hall proceeded to stomp away at Christopher, before Hall took the microphone from the Greek-Japanese leader. The Outlaw, Sam Hall: Three! Three on two and you got your ass handed to you! That's right, I ain't booked again, and that just plain don't sit right! Hey, Shima Ito, you know what happens when you keep screwin' with me? That leads me to makin' choices for my career that you might not like! That means I'm lookin' to conquer some worlds! And look here, there's a group called Worldwide Conquest right here in your rinky dink promotion! So, I talked to my pal Tarkhan, and I talked to ALEXANDER, and we agreed after Endo went down, that they might need somethin' extra in their aim to take this place over! And I ain't ignorant, I know I'm not the guy you call unless you ain't got no other choice! I'm what y'all call the last resort! Because I ain't much for playin' nice even with the people I like! And I tend to get a bit outta control with the ones I don't! So, Ito, you shit kickin' son of a bitch, this match just books itself! Get me Tarkhan and ALEXANDER here and throw me in, and we'll beat the everlovin' cowdung outta GPC and his sisters from some other misters, that is if Honda can even stand by then! Make it happen! Or we'll make sure it happens on our terms! Because that's what we conquerors do, you got that! Good! --- King Bemba: Tonight was the night that we reclaimed what was rightfully ours from the moment we set foot into this ring! This trophy of silver represents the city of Chicago, but as I look at The Loop, I see an emblem of the power that was my birthright but has only now found its way into my hands! Musambi, Oya, witness greatness! Marcus Xavier witnessed it first hand! He fought with honor and skill, but it was never going to be enough when he found himself against a true Destroyer! But now it is time to turn onward! Bemba: Jean-Pierre Mutombo, my most worthy foe! I very much hope that you vanquish Verda in your Golden Touch challenge! For while you have defeated me in the past, and proven yourself against one and all, I refuse to acknowledge that I am anything less than your absolute equal! We will meet again, and I have all the hope that it will be for the Number One! But if I am to claim such a match, I need to overcome one other foe, and that will be Salvador Sosa! Meet me at Golden Touch, Sosa, and we will see who is worthy of fighting Mutombo the next time! Meet me there, and experience what a Destroyer is capable of doing! --- Mr. Moonsault: Look, I just want to apologize to all of you for losing us The Loop. It was my decision to fight for that on my own. It was a poor decision. We are better as a team. And I betrayed that strength. D-Man Daunte Thomas: Man, you have nothing to apologize for when you fight like that. You gave your best, but so did he. Either one of you coulda taken that match. Freight Train McMichaelson: Least you didn't, um, get chucked out of the ring, like right away like I did. Astrid Johansson: I get it, you wanted to get a chance to jump up the Rankings. And you almost won, fighting the right way...unlike that match with Honda! So don't say sorry! You're our leader, tell us we're getting back up there soon! Moonsault: Fine. We experienced a setback. We lost our trophy tonight. But that doesn't define us. We'll be back. Astrid: That's more like it. |

The SWA returns to its main base in Los Angeles and brings UCSS along for a night headlined by a UCSS Openweight title bout and a mini-tournament that will find new champions for the currently vacated SWA Tag Titles.   UCSS x SWA: Way Out West8:00 PM (CT) on Friday, January 29th at the Doors of Perception in Los Angeles, CA Main Event: UCSS Openweight Title Bout Andronicus Turner(C) vs. Candace Monroe(Phoenix Rising)Andronicus Turner has finally managed to receive his proper recognition since defeating Rory Banner for the Openweight title and outslugging Ewan Jacobs at Lariats and Legislators 2020. At that same event, Candace Monroe managed to defeat her archrival, Leona Sterling in a thrilling fight inside the dodecahedron cage to earn a shot at Turner's title. While Turner may be the clear favorite, with the edge in overall combat sports experience and with his combination of footspeed and potent knockout power, Monroe may have some tools that could trouble the pure boxer. Trained under Phoenix Rising legend, Alexandra Kirison, Monroe's catch style submission focus includes a dangerous variety of leglocks, along with sharp low kicks and a number of powerful moves out of the clinch, including her Gotch-style piledriver and the Kirison Stunner. If she can survive Turner's onslaught in the first few rounds, Monroe's chances drastically increase...but that's a task easier said than done. SWA Tag Team Title Bout Winner of Renacimiento vs. Stewart and Collins vs. Winner of MATWORK vs. Thunder Devils SWA Rules Jamie Tomasi vs. Victor BoschA battle of two mat specialists takes place here with Thiago Gracie BJJ black belt, Jamie Tomasi going up against Combat Sambo Master of Sport, Victor Bosch. Tomasi's diverse armbar setups will be tested against the well-tested leglock approach of Bosch in this UCSS-SWA crossover dream match. A win for Bosch could put him back in the mix for Sophia Rodrigues's SWA Prestige title, for Tomasi, victory could establish his clear potential to become a main event level competitor in the new year. Baron Charles vs. Alex ThompsonThe HENTAI and The WALL, two strange competitors who can't seem to lay off the caps lock. Baron Charles has recently emerged from a legnthy feud against the Genocider, Sam Blocks, while the seven foot tall master of the diving cross body, Alex Thompson makes his return to the SWA, having found himself busy in several minor roles in Hollywood. Although Charles has been a major part of Nature Strange's Avant Garde alliance, he looks to take on this match on his own. SWA Rules Sanem Becker with "Big Banter" Rory Banner and Virgil de Boer vs. Ricky "Violence" Valdez with Jumbo Joseph ButtThe fallout of the Big Banter Brand's recent string of defeats and the simultanious rise of the Sweet Science Society will be felt here, as the German-Turkish suplex grappling specialist, Sanem Becker goes up against the roughhousing boxer, Violence Valdez. Ricky Valdez may be the single most skilled boxer of the Society, but much prefers to use every dirty trick in the book in his matches, delighting in the carnage. Becker is a dual threat with her suplexes and her expertise with the Backlund Special crossface chickenwing, a submission that she nearly won the Openweight title with at one point. SWA Rules Francine Francis vs. Della Dwight with "Textbook" Tim DwightThe former police detective, "Flatfoot" Francine Francis and the "Big Fundamental," and one of the biggest free agents of the last year, Della Dwight will face off in this contest, with Francis's power takedowns and efficient submissions up against Dwight's varied skillset and high angle Skyscraper suplex. While both participants are far from seeing the Openweight title, a good showing could give both a needed momentum boost, with Francis's Eagle Justice team with Anaba Camacho potentially going for the UCSS Tag belts, and Dwight looking to establish a footing in the promotion. SWA Tag Team Contender Match MATWORK(Cherry Blossom Ikki and Thomas Lancashire with Mikazuki) vs. Thunder Devils(Dag Boomer and "Ringside Thunder" Laurence Holland)The second match in the mini-tournament will almost certainly slow the pace down, with the heavy hitting power game of the Thunder Devils up against the ground specialists of MATWORK. Ikki and Lancashire have built some recent momentum, and could perhaps be the favorites to win the vacant belts, but the Thunder Devils are always one Boomer Bomb or thunderous head kick away from a win. SWA Tag Team Contender Match Renacimiento(Leonardo Pascual and Oliver Espadas) vs. Lindsey Stewart and Caroline CollinsAfter the Bingo Hall Mutants beat The Vanishing, crushing Notorious with a big time knockout, the SWA Tag Titles were vacated by the decision of SWA Director, Grateful Saeba, and a mini-tournament was announced to determine the new tag champions. The first of the two tournament bouts could be one of the fastest paced bouts in SWA history, with the speed fueled renaissance of Renacimiento up against the high flying duo of Stewart and Collins. Renacimiento, obnoxious as they may be, are absolute favorites of workrate fans, and their opponents should be more than able to match their speed in this one. |

www.twitch.tv/senatorphillips Shoot style action joins some of LA's finest as UCSS travels to the home base of the SWA. Andronicus Turner defends his UCSS Openweight title in the main event against the audacious challenge of Candace Monroe, and the vacated SWA Tag Titles will find owners with four teams dueling to discover who picks up where the Vanishing left off. Catch it all at 8:00 PM, Central Time, tonight. --- Andronicus Turner: Since I started on my mission to spread word that boxing's the best, from my days in HONOO, from my time paying my dues and getting used to UCSS, I knew I'd be a champ some day. There was no doubt in my mind. That's why I signed up with Rory Banner's Big Banter Brand, to boost my signal. That's why I split from him, because he decided to be a shit talking backstabber who didn't want to give me what he promised. And now, I'm here, with this Openweight title, and what I want to say, is that too many times in the fight game, you get someone who gets a belt and wants to sit on it or move onto something else. Some people are been saying I want to go back to boxing, go take that shot at an alphabet belt. Everyone who knows me knows that's one of my big goals. Andronicus: But just because that's my lifelong dream doesn't mean it's my only goal. So yeah, I'll quit the wrestling thing and go full time back to boxing some day. And if I still hold onto this belt at the end of 2021, I'm making that jump, right then, right there. But right now, I got something to prove. I want to take on every single style that UCSS can throw at me, and prove that the Kronk Legacy shines brighter, each and every month. And I'm not looking past my opponent for tonight. Candace Monroe got here on a longshot, jumped the line...but she earned it fair and square. She might not be the betting favorite, but I'm not taking her lightly. Just look at James Braddock, Buster Douglas, Andy Ruiz Jr, hell, look at me beating Big Banter Banner. The moment you think you can coast is when you get blind sided, sucker punched, finished. Lot of folks think Joe Louis is the greatest ever, and that's because he beat everyone for a decade straight. Didn't matter if they were a "bum of the month" or a legit killer. He took them all on and he put them all down. So, Candace? She might not have the hype of a Rory Banner, the history of a Thiago Gracie, but this lady's got some tools that I'm gonna have to deal with. If she beats me, it's not because I looked past her, it's because she did to me what I did to Banner. But truth be told, I don't see that happening. Talk is cheap, she knows that, I know that, we don't need to sell any wolf tickets, we don't need any fake drama. Andronicus: I'm not ducking anyone, I'm not stalling, I'm defending this belt, against anyone who steps up. So, go ahead, Candace, step up, and let's settle this one in the ring.

A big replacement in the tag tournament would spice things up as new SWA Tag Title champions were determined and Andronicus Turner faced another challenge for his Openweight title on this event. RESULTS UCSS x SWA: Way Out West 8:00 PM (CT) on Friday, January 29th at the Doors of Perception in Los Angeles, CA Bonus Match Oleg Makos and Count Savage vs. Frank Van Sloan and Gang Wong  Two new teams, the duo of Savage-Do and the Universal Shaolin Soldiers squared off in a bonus match, and while Savage and Makos held their own, the Uberkick of Frank Van Sloan and Gang Wong's championship quality striking would lead to a flying knee victory from the Shaolin Superstar over Oleg Makos. Main Event: UCSS Openweight Title Bout Andronicus Turner(C) vs. Candace Monroe(Phoenix Rising)  A brave attempt from Candace Monroe, who did well in the opening round to nullify the potent punches and brilliant footwork of Andronicus Turner, but simply couldn't mount her own attack to any significant degree. And it would be this lack of offence that would allow Turner to turn up the heat as the match went along, eventually leading to a Kronk Overhand at the very start of the third round to keep Monroe down for the ten count. Andronicus Turner may well be looking now towards the Senatorial Office Number One with his dominating performances in UCSS. SWA Tag Team Title Bout Renacimiento(Leonardo Pascual and Oliver Espadas) vs. MATWORK(Cherry Blossom Ikki and Thomas Lancashire with Mikazuki)  A third match for Mikazuki to manage, and yet again, another outfit for the Cider Gaming spokeswoman. However, her support was not enough here, with Renacimiento utterly outworking MATWORK with their well coordinated offence, before Leonardo Pascual caught Cherry Blossom Ikki with the superstar elbow into a delfin clutch for the three count, earning the SWA Tag titles on behalf of Renacimiento. SWA Rules Jamie Tomasi vs. Victor Bosch with Mikazuki  A heavily anticipated bout for aficianados of pure grappling, with Mikazuki changing into khakis and a t-shirt for her managerial work here. Jamie Tomasi has simply been on another level as of late, and this was no exception for the Thiago Gracie BJJ black belt, who surgically broke down Bosch's arms, landed explosive suplexes and big flying knees, and would earn the win in the third round with an armbar from bottom guard. With wins like this, few would argue if Tomasi finds himself in line for a shot at the Openweight title sooner than later. Baron Charles vs. Alex Thompson  All of the antics of Baron Charles were on full display for two thirds of this one, which may have influenced the latter part of the procedings, with Charles utterly spiking Thompson with a kneeling piledriver, but that seemed to wake up the Wall, as Thompson answered with a snap powerbomb, landing another on the outside, and hitting a brainbuster lariat that set up The Bigger They Fall, his deadly diving crossbody press for the win. SWA Rules Sanem Becker with "Big Banter" Rory Banner and Virgil de Boer vs. Ricky "Violence" Valdez with Jumbo Joseph Butt  A large portion of this match was dominated by Ricky Valdez and his endless, inventive series of cheap shots. Violence Valdez more than earned his name with thumbs to the eye, rabbit punches, headbutts, low blows from all angles, running kicks to the ribs, and maybe a little boxing for good measure. And while it seemed that Valdez was going to wreck his Turkish-German opponent, Sanem Becker reminded the UCSS faithful why she earned her spot in the Big Banter Brand and competed for the Openweight title, as she rallied late with a flurry of suplexes and locked in the Backlund Special crossface chickenwing hold to earn a third round submission win, much to the delight of Rory Banner at ringside. SWA Rules Francine Francis vs. Della Dwight with "Textbook" Tim Dwight  One of the best matches of the night between two competitors hungry for a much needed victory, with Francis and Dwight striving back and forth for four solid rounds of action. Francine Francis had the slight edge on the mat early on, but Della Dwight's suplexes and long legged running dropkicks seemed to rattle the former police detective, and after a snapdown into an attempt at the Lockdown rear naked choke for Francis, Dwight was able to counter, reversing into a jackknife pin for the victory. SWA Tag Team Contender Match MATWORK(Cherry Blossom Ikki and Thomas Lancashire with Mikazuki) vs. All American Athletes(Blan Fleming and July Eagle)  Before this match started, it was announced that the Thunder Devils did not make it back from Washington DC, having been held up in the airport due to missing wallets and IDs. Taking their place, the All American Athletes brought Blan Fleming and July Eagle in to face MATWORK's duo. While the Athletes may have seemed to be a nightmare surprise matchup, and while both Fleming and Eagle seemed to be in solid form, MATWORK did not allow the surprise change in plans to deter them from their own gameplan, their composure bolstered by Mikazuki's enthusiastic assistance from ringside. And some might suggest that July Eagle's lingering injuries may have also played a role, with Cherry Blossom Ikki eventually catching him with a rolling straight kneebar for the finish to go onto the title match later in the evening. SWA Tag Team Contender Match Renacimiento(Leonardo Pascual and Oliver Espadas) vs. Lindsey Stewart and Caroline Collins  Unsurprisingly, this match was as fast moving and fluidly paced as expected. While Collins and Stewart were competitive, this was Renacimiento's preferred style, and the arrogant duo came away with the win after Espadas landed a twisting complete shot into a magistral pin on Collins, making up for the moment before the finish where he caused a botched moonsault whiff from Pascual. --- Match of the Night: Francis vs. Dwight -On a show that lacked a definite standout bout, this one was a good, competitive match that nearly went the distance, and absolutely raised the profile of both participants. Performer of the Night: Renacimiento(Leonardo Pascual and Oliver Espadas) -The new SWA Tag Team champions were a lock for this category, winning two matches in the night and earning the belts for their effort. --- Blanchard Fleming: I just want everyone to know that, no matter what you may say about me, I'm a good guy. I always try to do the right thing. And while I don't usually sing my own praises, I think I need to tell this story as a teaching moment. People need to learn from my example here. July Eagle: You're on your own here, Blan. I'm going to go ice my shoulder, and my knee, and my elbow... Fleming: So, as I was saying, I have a little story. The SWA was in Washington DC with the Senatorial Office for a while, so we were flying back home here to L.A. And when I got on the plane, you wouldn't believe what I found. Dag Boomer and Laurence Holland's wallets somehow found their way onto the plane. And me, being an upstanding citizen, collected them so I could keep them out of the hands of dirty thieves and so I could return them intact, with all their contents untouched. And when the Devils make their way back here to the City of Angels, they owe me a big damn thanks for saving their wallets for them. Fleming: And you want to know just how good I am to you people? Eagle and I filled in when the Devils were stranded, we stepped up for a promotion that doesn't give a crap about us! So, let that be the lesson, you do people favors, and all that happens is that the ref calls for a quick stop for your efforts. The All American Athletes always stand up to do the right thing, and we always get dumped on for it. So, what I'm demanding now, is that we call in our debt for all the favors we've done. Renacimiento don't deserve the belts. We do. Give us a shot at those titles. Or you might regret it, Grateful Saeba! --- Thiago Gracie: Is simple! He win! Victory by armbar! Give match for title! Dangerous Nicholas Alger: Thiago, my pal, it ain't automatic. Thiago: What? Armbar always automatic! "Big Banter" Rory Banner: What utter nonsense, complete rubbish, total poppycock. You know why I am here, Alger and I intend to obtain exactly what I demand to recieve. DNA: There's an obvious issue here. With an obvious solution. Thiago: Armbars are always solution. DNA: Could be! Because your boy, Jamie's got a match. Banner: I see how egregious the favortism runs here, you insufferable yank. DNA: Hold it, big mouth. I said Jamie's got a match next time. It's with your gal, Becker. Banner: Unacceptable! Sanem Becker thrashed Turner's own teammate while Tomasi was handed a meaningless mail-order belt and beat an ancient shell of an Eastern Bloc myth! This choice is clear! DNA: Sure is. The choice is that Tomasi faces Becker. Winner gets Turner later on, next month. That's the decision. Live with it. Thiago: Is ok. Jamie win match, get match, win match again. Two times, victory by armbar. Is no bad. Banner: You will hear from me again, Alger! DNA: Hopefully, not. But for now, get outta here! --- Andronicus Turner: Yeah, my boys have been telling me that I need to be looking for the Number One now. I have a few things to say about that. But first, let me just thank Candace Monroe for a good fight in there. I held absolutely nothing back, and that's what happens when you have legit opponents like her. You can't take a night off. Turner: And that's why I got to put the brakes on any ideas about the Number One. I'm the UCSS Openweight champ. That means something. All that time and effort it took, I'm not throwing that away to jump after the next prize up that ladder. So here's my deal. I'm defending this belt every month until I lose it or I make it to the end of the year. I already said that. But if I do lose it before then, that's the time I'll see if I can get myself a shot at the Number One. Turner: But before that, I'm zeroed in, one hundred percent on the Openweight title, and that's the way it has to be. |

Anthony Kalb: Welcome everyone, to this special edition Office announcement, this is your Senatorial Office Head of Operations, Anthony Kalb. Kevin Fitsharris: And the Assistant to the Head of Operations, Kevin Fitsharris, here, too! Art Fitsharris: Woah, daddy, is that Uncle Tony on your screen? Hi, Uncle Tony! Peggy Fitsharris: Hi, Uncle Tony! Art still smells funny! Art: Do not! Peggy: Do too! Kevin: Um...I'm going to mute and let you do this on your own, Kalb...Mina's out getting groceries...and I gotta keep the kids outta trouble. Kalb: Well, I guess it's just me on my own here. So, this Friday, we're making a big debut event in Midas's new Club Minos in Atlantic City. To celebrate that occurance, and the tenth Golden Touch event, we have what could be one of the biggest shows of the whole year assembled. There's matches to determine the Senatorial Office Number One Ranking, the Office Number One Tag Rankings, the TIPWF Lone Star Heavyweight title, there's so much going on here that we've decided that this one's All The Marbles. Kevin: Ok, I'm back, but under one condition. The kids wanted to ask you a question, and it's a reasonable one, so I'm letting them do this once and only once. Go ahead... Peggy: Um, Uncle Tony, Artie and I were wondering if you could... Art: Give Froggy a match! Kalb: A reasonable request, really. So, you two, there's two Froggys, there's the original, Notorious EFM, who's... Art: That one! Peggy: Yes, we want the first one, um, please? Kalb: Well, let me see how things are going by the end of the main event, and maybe I'll find a match for the Notorious EFM if he's in town. Thank you both for a good suggestion! So, let me run this card down, now, for all the rest of you out there:  Golden Touch #10: All The MarblesFriday, February 5th at Club Minos in Atlantic City, NJ, following the broadcast of All Time Fighting in our time Main Event: Senatorial Office Number One Ranking, TIPWF Lone Star Heavyweight Title Double Championship Bout Jean-Pierre Mutombo(Senatorial Office Number One Ranked) vs. Valentina Verda(TIPWF Lone Star Heavyweight Champion)Kalb: The TIPWF has some of the biggest stars of our whole Senatorial Office, and here, we're going to come closer to finding out who's the very best, with Jean-Pierre Mutombo defending his Office top ranking against Valentina Verda, who's putting the TIPWF Lone Star Heavyweight title up in return. Two top stars, two top prizes, and one person's walking away with it all. Valentina Verda's called the Virtuoso Exotico for a reason, and Valentina is outright the best pure wrestler in our whole organization. But Jean-Pierre Mutombo has been almost unstoppable over the last year, he's still the Pan African Champion, he's beaten just about every main event star in our Affiliate Promotions, and he's immensely popular. This is the best we have to offer, and yes, thanks to Midas, it's right here on Golden Touch. Ok, sorry, but I was obligated to say that. Co-Main Event: Senatorial Office Number One Tag Ranking Bout Black Star Cyclones(Layla Al-Amin(Phoenix Rising) and Esi Dogboe) vs. The Bingo Hall Mutants(Rampage Rage and Skullface Killah)Kalb: The best teams in the Office? We all know who they are. The Cyclones are speed and timing and ring awareness personified. The Mutants are chaos and violence and ruthless efficiency incarnate. Put 'em together, and you have the formula for one of the best tag matches of the year, and a guaranteed Number One Ranking delivered to the winners. You can't go wrong with either of these pairings. Senatorial Office Ranking Bout Salvador Sosa vs. King BembaThey both wanted a shot at the top, they both made their case, and here, we'll find who's going to be next up for the winner of our main event. Whoever walks out of this one as the winner is going to be the challenger at Golden Touch #11. Salvador Sosa is the undisputed Dominican Golden Champion. King Bemba is the leader of Bemba's Royal Court, who currently are the holders of The Loop, Wacker Drive Revival's trophy. Both are capable of beating just about anyone on their best day, and putting on memorable matches for the ages. I expect a match of the year contender here! UCSS Rules Virgil de Boer vs. Masa TokugawaKalb: Masa Tokugawa's been out on concussion protocol, and while I'd advise a different way to return to action, he's going to go up against the Big Banter Brand's Muay Thai Enforcer, Virgil de Boer. Most everyone who knows what these two are capable of know that we should expect... Kevin: Knees! Kalb: I thought you muted again, come on, Fitsy! Kevin: Sorry...was waiting all along so I could do that... The Capitalsts(Anthony Kalb and Kevin Fitsharris) and Rick Humphries vs. The Syndicate(Eddie the Wire, Tony the Rod and Mr. Cobra with Lucretia DeCavalcante)Kalb: And here, I'm happy to announce the return of Rick Humphries to the Senatorial Office, and the last time he was around was in December of 2019. But the old body guard of Steve Phillips has said he's interested in getting back into the ring, as he joins me... Kevin: And me! Kalb: As we go into action against the Syndicate, who have the Goodfellas and Mr. Cobra taking us on in what could be a fun match, even if I expect to have to get a few stitches afterwards thanks to Cobra. Featured Talent Young Blood with John Logan
Colossus Rhodes
El ExpertoKalb: And we have some big names in the jobber matches, El Experto will show just how much of an expert he is at stretching out some unfortunate ENHANCE opponent, Colossus Rhodes is going to go up against String Bean, I've heard, and Young Blood's ticked off Midas enough that he's got the VIP Club Captain, and the Warrior Pro Heavyweight champ, John Logan instructing him at ringside. I know I can't wait to see how well those two get along. And that's the show for Friday, I do hope you'll all tune into the Senatorial Streaming Service and spend a little time with us as we beat each other silly to entertain you all! |

Since I'll not be around tomorrow to get this set up ahead of time, or do promos(real life has gotten rather hectic), I figured I'd simply post the notice tonight that we're still on for a double decker back to back attack of Friday night fights! Starting at 8:00 PM, Central Time, All Time Fighting returns with its third event, culminating in an ATF Vale Tudo championship bout as Mirko Cro Cop defends against Daniel Cormier, Brock Lesnar and Francis Ngannou will clash in a battle of the behemoths and much more! Once All Time Fighting concludes, Golden Touch Promotions has one of the biggest events of the year, as Jean-Pierre Mutombo puts his Senatorial Office Number One Ranking against Valentina Verda's TIPWF Lone Star Heavyweight title, with only one walking away with both honors. If that wasn't enough, the Bingo Hall Mutants and the Black Star Cyclones will fight for the Senatorial Office Number One Tag Ranking in the co-main event. Catch it all on the Senatorial Streaming Service! www.twitch.tv/senatorphillips |

Promo rundown for Golden Touch #10: All The Marbles
---
Jean-Pierre Mutombo: Greetings and salutations, wonderful people of the Senatorial Office, followers of Golden Touch and fans of mine! It is I, Jean-Pierre, your African Supersensation, your Charisma King, your Man of Unity, your Senatorial Office Number One, your Pan African Champion, and maybe after tonight, your TIPWF Lone Star Heavyweight champion of the great state of Texas! Yes, tonight, I have a match of matches, one which I hope will entertain one and all against one of the best entertainers in the world, and maybe the best wrestler in the world, Valentina Verda! Valentina is the TIPWF champion, and I cannot wait to see what this Virtuoso Exotico has to bring against me here! It will be no dishonor to lose this match! If I am pinned, I am pinned by the person who beat Cowboy Johnston! That is no shame! But all the same, I will not come here to lose, I come here to add another belt to my collection of beautiful championships that I already have! People tell me about the Ultimo Dragon and the Great Muta, that they wore many belts like armor! I hope to wear mine like a robe of honor! I represent the Office itself, I represent Pan African Wrestling, even now, and I represent all of my fans out there who win my matches for me with their extremely loud cheers! I can even hear them from the people who watch from their computers, they are that loud! And it is for all of you that I will give you a match that you will remember, and if I win, that will be because of you!
---
Valentina Verda: Everyone who knows me knows that I have the absolute time of my life in the ring. I love putting on a show and finding as much enjoyment out of the match as the fans do. I won this title here with a suffocating kiss that the big rawboned hunk of Texan, Cowboy Johnston couldn't escape! But just because I have a good time doesn't mean I don't want to be taken seriously, too. I have fun, but nobody can argue that I'm not the best technical wrestler in the entire Office. And everyone who's tried to get this bet off my gorgeous waist has failed so far. I'm not just a pretty face, there's nobody better in the world at putting someone's shoulders on the mat for the three count. And even if a lot of people are writing me off, I'll do my very best to prove them wrong tonight against Jean-Pierre Mutombo.
---
King Bemba: Mutombo! You have held the Pan African Championship too long! It is my fault that I was not able to grasp that belt as I had the right to do! But I have only one match in my way before I can claim my royal birthright! I have Salvador Sosa in my path! Salvador, understand this! You do not want to be where you are at right now! You may be one of the great wrestlers today, but in facing me, you will be nothing but a bump in the road, something to be trampled upon as I set my sights further on! No matter how good you are, you are fragile and breakable, and you contain no royal bloodline in your veins! I am already the king of Chicago as I hold The Loop! Now I must become the King of Pan Africa, and the King of the Senatorial Office! And nobody in their right mind will dare to deny me what is mine!
---
Salvador Sosa: King Bemba is one bad dude, I'm not going to deny that. But this guy is out there writing checks before he ever received a deposit. Bemba believes he's going to treat me like an afterthought. That's fine. If he wants to underestimate me, he hasn't been paying attention. Yeah, I'm not royal, not even fake royal like my man, Killer King Jones. And yeah, I've been on the shelf here and there. But what Bemba doesn't remember is that I took the best Gorilla Power had and threw it right back at him. You know, Gorilla Power, the guy who beat Bemba, before. I beat Dungeon Dominguez on my first damn match back. This is a guy who was murdering everyone the Santanas had to throw at him. And I whipped his ass. So if the Ugandan Destroyer thinks he can walk through Salvador Sosa, I got no problem with that. All that'll do is make my night a little easier. I can take his best shot and come back for more. Can he do the same in return? We'll find out.

It was the best of times, it was the worst of times, as the first half of this show could have been the absolute worst stretch of programming ever aired on the Senatorial Streaming Service, and yet, the second portion produced absolute match of the year contenders and memorable moments to offset the early misery. RESULTS Golden Touch #10: All The Marbles Friday, February 5th at Club Minos in Atlantic City, NJ, following the broadcast of All Time Fighting in our time Main Event: Senatorial Office Number One Ranking, TIPWF Lone Star Heavyweight Title Double Championship Bout Jean-Pierre Mutombo(Senatorial Office Number One Ranked) vs. Valentina Verda(TIPWF Lone Star Heavyweight Champion)  The best of the best squared off in this main event, and Valentina Verda has never looked more dominant, going at Mutombo from the start of the match with a more serious approach than usual, and keeping the Congolese superstar on his back heel for the entire rest of the match, stealing his brainbuster side slam, the Unifier at one point, throwing in a few liplocks for good measure, and going into a flash pin frenzy as the match continued. It would be the floatover backslide pin, the Gardenia Bridge that would take Verda to the very top of the rankings, scoring the three count over the long standing face of the Office in one of the most impressive showings that anyone has ever managed against the African Supersensation. Valentina Verda is now the Number One, is still the TIPWF Lone Star Heavyweight champion, and is now the person to beat. Co-Main Event: Senatorial Office Number One Tag Ranking Bout Black Star Cyclones(Layla Al-Amin(Phoenix Rising) and Esi Dogboe) vs. The Bingo Hall Mutants(Rampage Rage and Skullface Killah)  On practically any other night of the year, this would likely have been the match of the night. Two tremendous teams at their very best, each doing what they do best is a formula for some enjoyable action, and this match entirely lived up to the hopes of the fans. The Cyclones and the Mutants demonstrated why they are both a step above any other team in the Office with this top notch tag encounter, with both teams showing their intelligence and fortitude across the duration. The power of the Mutants and the speed of the Cyclones were important, but not as much as timing and placement, which both teams demonstrated in full measure, with some amazing saves made by the Cyclones later on, as Esi Dogboe fought through a nasty cut and Layla Al-Amin demonstrated her tremendous capabiliites, making a cross ring save at one point. It would be Skullface Killah, though, who would pin Al-Amin, following a perfectly placed chokeslam, giving Rampage enough time to catch Esi Dogboe's save attempt. Senatorial Office Ranking Bout Salvador Sosa vs. King Bemba  Perhaps the best match either man has ever competed in, flat out, and considering the resumes of Sosa and Bemba, that is not said lightly. King Bemba was absolutely on fire from the opening bell, brutalizing Salvador Sosa early on, working over his recuperated shoulder and never letting off the gas. Sosa, though, would not stay down for anything, kicking out of an unreal amount of power attacks, and still coming back for more, landing token offence in over and over in response, which would accumulate over time. Following the twenty five minute mark, this match stared evening out more with Sosa now landing some of his best moves, and the match was truly anyone's to win going into the half hour. At this crucial time, King Bemba landed one more Death Valley Bomb, dropping down for the cover, and gaining the three count to bring an absolute masterpiece of a match to an end. UCSS Rules Virgil de Boer vs. Masa Tokugawa  Now this was more of what the doctor ordered. Masa Tokugawa took the fight to the Big Banter Brand's Muay Thai specialist, and endured through the Dutchman's diverse, hard hitting strikes early on. As sharp as Masa looked in his return to the ring, he yet did not quite have enough to overcome de Boer's onslaught, with a series of knee strikes keeping him down for the ten count in the third round. This was a fun, fast fight that went a long way towards regaining some much needed momentum for the night. The Capitalsts(Anthony Kalb and Kevin Fitsharris) and Rick Humphries with Steve Phillips vs. The Syndicate(Eddie the Wire, Tony the Rod and Mr. Cobra with Lucretia DeCavalcante)  A solidly competitive match, spiced up by the surprise addition of Steve Phillips at ringside for the Capitalists and Rick Humphries, and by the particuarly vicious approach of Anthony Kalb, who seemed to want to do nothing but drop opponents on their heads on the outside all night. Tony the Rod would eventually net the win for the Syndicate as he landed a tornado Rod Smasher inverted DDT out of the corner onto Kevin Fitsharris. This was probably not the right match to follow the marathon jobber squashes, though, and was not paced well enough to wake Club Midas up in full. Featured Talent Young Blood with John Logan vs. Jeff  The Warrior Pro Heavyweight Champion had a long time to "enjoy" the display of Young Blood beating up on Jeff, with a match that unacceptably went close to twenty five minutes. This one was slightly better than the Rhodes match in that Young Blood opened up his opponent and used more dynamic offence...but it did run longer, and was no more competitive, with an arm trapped neck crank eventually producing the shamefully delayed win. At this point, even the audience at Club Midas were grumbling their dissatisfaction with this poor excuse for a card. Things would improve, though... Colossus Rhodes with Morgan "Midas" Matthews, Persephone and Irkalla vs. String Bean  While there is no "Worst Match of the Year" award in the Office, this dismal match could have earned it if there was. For twenty excruciating minutes, Colossus Rhodes avoided anything that could have yielded a win in this match, letting String Bean survive until he landed a lackluster lariat to score the all too belated pinfall. Words cannot express how awful of an experience this match was. El Experto and Itzcoatl Hernandez with Poison Froggy Mask and Julio Rivera vs. Neil  Originally meant to be a singles match, but El Experto managed to sign Itzcoatl Hernandez on as an active competitor on his side, and with Poison Froggy and Julio Rivera at ringside, was taking no chances at all here, even against Neil. This one was thankfully brief, with Experto locking in his rolling entry camel clutch, Agarre Perfecto for the (much too) easy win. --- Match of the Night: Sosa vs. Bemba -While the Cyclones and the Mutants put on a tremendous performance, there was only really one answer for this award, and Sosa vs. Bemba is almost certainly the front runner for match of the year at this point. An absolutely exhilierating battle between two of the best. Performer of the Night: Valentina Verda -No questions here, bringing Jean-Pierre Mutombo's long reign with the Number One to an end in style made this an easy choice. --- Senatorial Office Rankings: February 2021[Singles] #1: Valentina Verda (Last Month: N/A) Verda's momentum has carried on unchecked for some time, and has culminated in an astounding win over Jean-Pierre Mutombo to directly claim the top spot. The Virtuoso Exotico is the undisputed top person in the TIPWF and the Office at this point, and the fun may only be beginning here. #2: King Bemba (Last Month: N/A) Beating Salvador Sosa in a huge match for the second spot in the rankings, and captaining The Loop winning team in Wacker Drive puts the Ugandan in an enviable position for this month. #3: Jean-Pierre Mutombo (Last Month: #1) Having gained the spot in April of 2020, JPM finally drops down in the rankings, but not off, as the Man of Unity remains one of the very best in the Office, and still retains the Pan African Championship as well as the main event scene of the TIPWF. #4: Salvador Sosa (Last Month: #2) A close loss to King Bemba and a big win over Dungeon Dominguez have defined Sosa's recent run, still nearly unstoppable, still the Dominican Golden Champion, and still in the top five. #5: G.P. Christopher (Last Month: #4) One of the toughest calls that this committee has ever made was deciding between GPC and Andronicus Turner. As it was, Christopher's win over Nishimura Endo to continue his longer reign with the Victorious Medal just barely edged out Turner's win over Candace Monroe to retain the UCSS Openweight title. [Team] #1: The Bingo Hall Mutants(Rampage Rage and Skullface Killah) (Last Month: #1) Still on top of the world, the Mutants edged out the Cyclones in a direct challenge, and look to continue defending their PEWA Extreme Tag titles well into this year, if not beyond. #2 Black Star Cyclones(Layla Al-Amin(Phoenix Rising) and Esi Dogboe) (Last Month: #2) The Cyclones may have fallen just short of beating the Mutants for the top spot, but maintain a healthy distance above the rest of the Office's teams, and are still the Pan African Tag champs, likely defending the belts on the next Golden Touch program, as they also seek the TIPWF Lone Star Trios belts. #3 Renacimiento(Leonardo Pascual and Oliver Espadas) (Last Month: N/A) The SWA's Tag Team Title champions took the best of an opportunity and have cemented themselves as the top team in a loaded division with the Vanishing out on injury leave. Workrate favorites, the renaissance duo may now be matching their skills with their results. --- Morgan "Midas" Matthews: I am very much displeased. If Salvador Sosa and King Bemba did not take years off of their miserable lives to salvage the night, my Club Minos debut could have been an unmitigated disaster. Not only did you fail me, but you did so in the worst of ways! And even past that, Steve Phillips was in my building, on my property, on my show! Utterly unacceptable! Young Blood: Maybe you tell that fuckin' shitbag Logan to mind his own fucking business and I finish matches faster! He stands out there pissing around for my matches, I piss around in the ring, he made me do that! Midas: Are you blaming John Logan, my prized free agent aquisition, the man who retained his Warrior Pro Heavyweight title the way he was supposed to, my captain of my VIP Club, the man you injured when I specifically instructed you to not do so, are you blaming him for your own direct shortcomings? Because if you are, I think you can go play with Dean Sweenson and his maniacs for the rest of your misbegotten career! I took a chance with you, I gave you a second chance when you botched it up! And this is how you repay me! Get out of my sight. Blood: Fuck this. Give me Logan, one on one. That bitch made bitch is fucking healthy enough to wrestle. Next Golden Touch, he and I got unfinished business. Midas: Really, just for that, you get to fight another ENHANCE match the next time around, with Logan there in the corner. Do not think you have the right to dictate anything to me! Do you understand this? Blood: Understand this. Young Blood raises a middle finger, sticking it in Midas's face. Persepohone and Irkalla both reflexively recoil, just as Colossus Rhodes steps in, grabbing the former PEWA Extreme champ by the shoulder. Midas: Wrong. Move. Young Blood thrashes out of the giant's grip, only for Rhodes to grab him by the throat. A kick to the groin frees YB from the choke, and he wheels around while Rhodes drops to his knees. Blood: I'd beat the shit out of him right here! But I have a flight to catch to that piss ass Sakura fed. Give me fuckin' Logan! Or you got a river of shit to swim out of! Midas: You best remember who pays your checks around here... --- Valentina Verda: Yes, the EWO is taking over! First Texas, now the world! Jean-Pierre Mutombo: I offer you the greatest of congratulations! It is not very often that anyone is able to beat me! But you did not just beat me! Verda: You better believe I didn't just beat you, I showed you a great time out there, too! JPM: I do not know if I agree with that, for I, Jean-Pierre, a good time is with a pretty blonde French lady! Verda: So you'll take me out on the town if I color my hair gold and whisper sweet amour in your ear? JPM: If it is a party you want, I will give it to you! But a date...that... ???: So this is the one I will meet soon! JPM: Mr. Bemba, it is good to see you after your amazing match! My fans were entertained to the maximum by such a thrilling contest! King Bemba: It is King! King Bemba! I am a King, not a simple "mister!" Verda: You look like a nice big mister to me! Bemba: And you are the one who has the Number One now! Next month, I will destroy you for it! Verda: You can try, but I don't die easy, as your hunky friend here found out earlier. Bemba: Mutombo! Hold onto that Pan African Championship! I will take that from you this year! But first, I must crush this impudent fool! Valentina Verda! You may be good, but you cannot understand what you now face! Verda: Do your worst...and I'll bring my best. Bemba: One month! You have one month in my throne, false pretender! And then I will take what is mine! King Bemba stared at both rivals for a long moment before shaking his head with a loud huff of disapproval as he walked away down the hallway. Verda: Is he always such a... JPM: Yes, that is Mr. Bemba! He is almost as good as he says he is! But he is also a royal pain in the neck! |

The PEWA finally comes back to the storied Halcyon Ballroom in Philadelphia with three title matches headlining a night jam packed full of Philly's finest hardcore warriors.  PEWA: Hardcore Homecoming8:00 PM (CT) on Friday, February 12th at the Halcyon Ballroom in Philadelphia, PA Main Event: PEWA Extreme Title Bout Hobo Harry(C) vs. Luke PowersHobo Harry's first defense after ending the impressive reign of Kevin Royce will be against an old friend, but do not expect either competitor to hold anything back in this main event. Luke Powers spent a good part of the previous year rebuilding himself for a new decade, innovating a new variation on the Powers Bomb and maintaining his impressive physical form. While a shocking upset defeat to Zanca slowed him down, he has since avenged the loss several times over and looks once more to become the quintessential ace of the PEWA once more. Hobo Harry's rejuvenation was borderline miraculous in the last year, winning tournaments and titles around the world, as well as main eventing Lariats and Legislators 2020, and the ageless high flyer may even be the favorte to retain in this match. PEWA Extreme Tag Title Bout The Bingo Hall Mutants(Rampage Rage and Skullface Killah) vs. The Warbringers(Demarcus Browning(Blackrose) and Moustapha Ndour with Renate Barlowe)With wins over the Black Star Cyclones and the Vanishing as of late, the Mutants may have reached a new peak in terms of their profile and success. They will face a determined challenge by one of wrestling's most promising young new teams in the Warbringers. Browning and Ndour have taken off from their first match, with success across Pan African Wrestling, Sakura Pro and now, the PEWA. Their mix of power and top notch athleticism will provide a new, dangerous challenge for the Mutants, but the two PEWA Originals have only seemed to show a greater ability to adapt in the last year. Ruler of the Road Bout Running Diamond Cutter Man vs. Jack FuryThe former Highway Outlaw Wrestling title and current mid level PEWA belt is dictated to be defended on every broadcast program of the organization. The Running Diamond Cutter Man, Jose Marin has been a fighting champion ever since taking the title from Big Clay Hurst's capable hands, and will now go up against one of the PEWA's greatest legends, with Jack Fury taking part in his first singles match since his retirement. The last time Fury and the RCDM were in the PEWA together, Marin was merely a young member of the ring crew who occasionally ran into the ring to hit a random Running Diamond Cutter on a wrestler, before retreating to the back. Now, he stands as a legit professional and a champion, and Fury looks to this match as a test of his current capabilities. Evergreen Rules Bout The Sheridan Bros.(Vincent Sheridan and Zach Sheridan)(Phoenix Rising) vs. PEWA's Most Hated(Jeffrey Janson and "Party Animal" Jeremy Wylde)Can you get more obnoxious than these four? Probably so, but let's not find out. The Sheridan Brothers have a well earned reputation for being incredibly disliked by the Evergreen fanbase at home, while PEWA's Most Hated picked up their moniker for good reason. While the fans might not cheer loudly for this tornado rules matchup, few doubt that the action will be anything less than spectacular here. Tomas the Tiny Giant with X-KIRA vs. Bodybreaker Brown with Downtown Lucy BrownA surprising win for the Bodybreaker over Mina Fitsharris may bump the PEWA veteran up the rankings, but a win over Tomas could perhaps lead to an unlikely Extreme Title match in the near future. Meanwhile, the Tiny Giant may not be setting his sights up to the top of the singles division, but a win here could help in his tag endeavors, as Breakers' Revenge could pass Mr. and Mrs. Brown by proxy should the light tube swinger prevail here, while his partner, X-KIRA continues to recover from injury. Wild Women(Mina Fitsharris, Juliette Erving and Annie Chang) vs. House of Hammer(Sir Vladimir Henry, The Cremator and Beatriz with Heidi Karnstein)A big trios showcase match with both groups looking to regain some momentum, as the Wild Women suffered multiple losses over the last few shows, and the House of Hammer were humiliated, by Sir Vladimir losing to Masked Maniac IV and Tracy Finn in a gigantic upset and the entire Ritual of the Flame falling against a coalition of Originals. Sir Vlad undoubtedly is seeking a big statement, but it remains to be seen if can his side overcome the uncompromising approach of the Wild Women. Sylvain "Pay Day" Mint vs. SkuraiTwo storied PEWA Originals match up here, with Skurai the Hardcore Ninja attempting to find some success in the modern age of the fed, and Sylvain Mint seeks to maintain his currently impressive form in the hopes of earning another title match sooner than not. Skurai's swift kicks and deceptive ways will have to be in full effect if he hopes to find any success against Mint's excellent technique and well honed instincts. The Cruisers(Cruiser Jacobs and Cruiser Conrad) vs. Tough Guys(The Equalizer and Anwar Omar) A reconstituted Highway Outlaw matchup takes place here, as the Tough Guys and the Cruisers meet in action. Equalizer and Omar have made for an effective team ever since the Somalian Survivor defeated the legendary bouncer, and their mix of hard nosed brawling and simple, effective submissions have already netted multiple wins in the PEWA. The Cruisers might be close to the end of their multi-decade run, but still pack a potent punch, as Colossus Rhodes found out late in the last year. As competitive and deep as the PEWA tag division is, a win here is essential for either team to remain in the hunt for the belts. Barbed Wire Landmine Match P-Dogg vs. Masked Maniac IVWho opens a show up with a landmine deathmatch? The PEWA, of course. The first champ, P-Dogg earned an impressive win against the now-former PEWA competitor, Kengo Tamura in the previous event's bonus match, and will play the role of gatekeeper here. Masked Maniac IV, for his part, defeated none other than Sir Vladimir Henry with the help of Tracy Finn in a handicap challenge, and could find himself climbing up the ranks if he can pick up another big victory in this opening bout. |

 Biff Taylor: Alright dudes and dudettes, it's the Biffmeister himself right here back in Philly, 'cause the PEWA's come back home to hold ourselves one hellofa Hardcore Homecoming! An' with me here, I got the champ, the man of the hour, the moonsaultin' manaic, Hobo Harry, an' not just him, but the bad dude who's held this belt more than just about everyone else put together, his challenger, the Powerhouse, Luke Powers! Hobo Harry: Yeah, glad to be here, real glad to be here, it's all good to me. Luke Powers: I have to agree with the champ, it's good to be home. Biff: So, you two, don't make me pull you apart here, 'cause I didn't bring security! Harry: Nah, that ain't gonna be no problem, nah. Powers: Biff, you known damn straight that we're not putting up any front here. We're not going to fake it to sell this match. Hobo's straight up legit. Not just in the ring, but he's one of the best people I know outside it. Not gonna even try to hate on him for having my belt. Harry: And I ain't got no need for all this fancy gold, nah, you can have it, take it home, go pawn it, I ain't gonna care! But you ain't gettin' a win for free on me! Powers: Wouldn't want anything for free. And just 'cause you got my back, just 'cause I got respect for you for days, doesn't mean I'm holding back from putting you through the mat with a Powers Bomb! Harry: You can try, yeah, you can try that, maybe you get it, too! Biff: Um, guys, I hate to rain on your little parade here, but the people want to see some of the ol' ultra violence, blood, guts, hatred, fury...oh yeah, got Jack Fury in action tonight, too, goin' for that Ruler of the Road...but yeah, you two know better, PEWA ain't about peace, love and harmony! It's about carnage and brutality! Harry: Man, Biff, you ain't gotta give me that, we go back, what, twenty years, more? Fake shit don't sell. We ain't fake. Powers: But we'll fight. Not because we're wanting to hurt each other. We don't need that. But once things get going in that ring, you know you'll get a damn good match from both of us, whether we're old buddies or bitter enemies. Hobo doesn't dress like Anthony Kalb or Steve Phillips, but you know how professional he is. Never shows up and does anything less than his best. Got him a bunch of big wins this last year because of it. Me, my record speaks for itself. And I want my belt back. And I don't just want him handing it to me, I want to earn it back. And Hobo's going to make me earn that. So Biff, calm your ass down, you'll get all the competition you need in this main even tonight. Biff: Alright, alright, I get it. So yeah, we got title matches an' plenty of them tonight! This main event's promised to tear the roof off, even if these two refuse to give you and me the build you usually expect! The Bingo Hall Mutants are the best in the world, and they're defendin' against the two baddest newcomers on the block with the Warbringers! I mentioned Jack Fury, he's back, and he's going for the Running Diamond Cutter Man's Ruler of the Road belt! And that's just the tip of the iceberg! Catch it all tonight on the Senatorial Streaming Service, right at 8:00 PM, Central Time! Be there, or be square! www.twitch.tv/senatorphillips |

Another week with a main event that sought out Match of the Year honors, and the other matches at the top of the card delivered in like form for the PEWA's return to Philadelphia. RESULTS PEWA: Hardcore Homecoming 8:00 PM (CT) on Friday, February 12th at the Halcyon Ballroom in Philadelphia, PA Bonus Match Opaque vs. The Notorious EFM  While the previous Golden Touch show wasn't able to give El Froggy Original his match, the PEWA generously offered the freelance frog a bonus match against Opaque, a bout that suited both lucha style competitors well. While Opaque focused on stretching her foe out for long phases of the match, a late flurry of dives including the Frog Fifty and several El Froggy Splashes would be enough to give the EFM his win, with one of the Froggy Splashes finishing it off. Main Event: PEWA Extreme Title Bout Hobo Harry(C) vs. Luke Powers  A friendly competition. With Hobo Harry and Luke Powers demonstrating an absolute lack of animosity heading into this match, some expected this to be a glorified sparring match. What they instead received was one of the most competitively intense bouts of the entire year, as Harry and Powers unleashed an unearthly array of moves at an incredible pace. Near fall after near fall took place as this match went along, with Powers landing vicious suplexes and his trademark powerbombs, and Harry pulling out all the stops, from stomps, to corner to corner rope run dropkicks, to the vaunted Hobosault. And while the Hobosault wouldn't finish this the first time, it did score a stoppage win for Harry the last time it did, finishing off one of the absolute best matches that the PEWA has seen in years. PEWA Extreme Tag Title Bout The Bingo Hall Mutants(Rampage Rage and Skullface Killah) vs. The Warbringers(Demarcus Browning(Blackrose) and Moustapha Ndour with Renate Barlowe)  An exceptional tag match between two of the best teams around, and with Senatorial Office Head of Operations Anthony Kalb announcing that the winners would be confirmed for the next top spot in the Office Team Rankings, the stakes were as high as could be. Both teams delivered upon their expectations here, the Mutants sporting their usual brand of coordinated violence and the Warbringers exploding into battle with their own speed and power. Both teams came close at multiple points in taking this, but in the end, it would be a reverse chokeslam from a tagged out Moustapha Ndour on Skullface Killah that would put the BBQ master down for a knockout, giving the Warbringers the PEWA Extreme Tag Titles and the Senatorial Office #1 Team Rankings for what is possibly the biggest win yet in the careers of this supernova team. Ruler of the Road Bout Running Diamond Cutter Man vs. Jack Fury  Jack Fury returned to singles competition in good shape, but this match was really about his opponent. While many long time fans might yet scoff at Jose Marin, thanks to his origin in the company, and while many competitors might see him as a one dimensional competitor, there is no questioning that the Running Diamond Cutter Man is good enough at what he does to earn legitimate respect. The RDCM unleashed a barrage of Diamond Cutter variations down the stretch, overwhelming Fury, with a lethal injection style handspring cutter leading into one more running cutter to close out his title defense. The Ruler of the Road may be an inherited belt set as a mid tier title, but the RDCM is looking to give the Ruler of the Road its own legacy in the PEWA. Evergreen Rules Bout The Sheridan Bros.(Vincent Sheridan and Zach Sheridan)(Phoenix Rising) vs. PEWA's Most Hated(Jeffrey Janson and "Party Animal" Jeremy Wylde)  Everything you thought this match would be, it was. The PEWA's Most Hated thrived in the Evergreen Rules environment, enjoying the chaos of the tornado style team match. While the Sheridans certainly had their share of moments, and likely could have picked up a win here if they just had their act together, it was not meant to be. As Jeremy Wylde pinned Vincent following a Canadian Destroyer, Zach found that he would make the best use of his time by hitting a running elbow drop on Jeffrey Janson, letting Masked Maniac III count the three count on his brother to give the Most Hated a big win, and the Sheridans yet another dysfunctional finish. There is zero doubt that the Sheridans had the talent and skill to win this one, but the brothers once again found a way to be one of the least coordinated teams in the game. Tomas the Tiny Giant with X-KIRA vs. Bodybreaker Brown with Downtown Lucy Brown  The Bodybreaker was set to retire from in-ring action in the previous year, but every time he set out to close out on things, the results told him that a different course might be open. This match continued his upswing in form, taking on the formidable threat of the Tiny Giant, and passing with flying colors. Tomas was never able to find one of his trademark light tubes, nor did he hit many of his biggest moves, while the Bodybreaker slammed him down with the Snap Cracker gory bomb for another big win. Could Brown be in line for an Extreme title shot now? Wild Women(Mina Fitsharris, Juliette Erving and Annie Chang) vs. House of Hammer(Sir Vladimir Henry, The Cremator and Beatriz with Heidi Karnstein)  Annie Chang and Juliette Erving took their shot here, but it simply wasn't enough, especially considering that Mina Fitsharris seemed especially off, which would result in an vengeful Sir Vladimir Henry taking out his frustrations from his previous loss against Masked Maniac IV and Tracy Finn by spiking Fitsharris down with an Omen of Death lifting throat strike for a decisive win for the House of Hammer. Sylvain "Pay Day" Mint vs. Skurai  Sylvain Mint may have controlled long portions of this one, but Skurai knew what he wanted to do, opening a cut early on and repeatedly going for his Ninja Ambush cutter, and while the first time didn't even seem to make Pay Day Mint flinch, another one would leave him knocked out cold. The Hardcore Ninja could finally be in the mix again with this impressive win. The Cruisers(Cruiser Jacobs and Cruiser Conrad) vs. Tough Guys(The Equalizer and Anwar Omar)  The Cruisers were in good form here, with Cruiser Jacobs landing his Roadhouse Massacre death valley bomb at one point, but the Tough Guys would increase the pressure late into the match, and with the Equalizer ceaselessly going for his rear naked choke, and Omar making some strong cutoffs, the legendary bouncer was able to tap Conrad out with his choke. Barbed Wire Landmine Match P-Dogg vs. Masked Maniac IV  A strong opening to the show with two men at the opposite ends of their career arcs. While the Maniac was up to the task, landing a standing tornado DDT, stealing P-Dogg's Red Dogg gutwrench pancake facebuster and going for repeated flash pins, it would be the grizzled old veteran who came out ahead, building up a head of steam and unleashing it with a big running front dropkick for the win. --- Match of the Night: Hobo Harry vs Luke Powers -No doubt about it, this was a pure shot of adrenaline for the duration, both Harry and Powers elevating their game to put on one for the ages. On any other night, the Mutants-Warbringers match could have earned these honors, but the main event delivered and then some. Performers of the Night: The Warbringers(Demarcus Browning and Moustapha Ndour) -Although Hobo Harry deserved this as well as anyone, the Warbringers winning the tag titles and the top team spot in the Office requires recognition. An amazing run so far, for a team that seems to only find new heights to climb to. --- Injury Report Sylvain "Pay Day" Mint: Moderate Concussion (Three Month Medical Suspension) -Skurai's Ninja Ambush cutter put Mint down hard, and the seasoned veteran will spend a number of months on the shelf for mandatory recuperation. Skullface Killah: Moderate Concussion (Three Month Medical Suspension) -A reverse chokeslam from Moustapha Ndour finished off Skullface, and left him knocked out on the mat, resulting in a medical suspension, and a delayed BBQ celebration for the Warbringers. Luke Powers: Wind Knocked Out (No Medical Suspension) -Fortunately for Powers, Hobo Harry's Hobosault left no lasting damage, simply driving the air out of his lungs, and the medics cleared the Powerhouse almost immediately --- Luke Powers: Ugh, I'm gonna...really feel that...for a few days. Hobo Harry: Haha, I ain't gonna say I didn't bust my own gut too, but I ain't gonna say I didn't, either! Powers: Belt's still yours. Can't say I'm mad. Might even thank you. Harry: Thank me, haha, did I land on your head? Powers: Nah. Think it's time...for Powers and Fury to take a shot...at those Warbringers. Harry: You go get that! ???: An' maybe it's time I trade places and go for that shiny belt you got! Powers: Rampage. You need to replace what you lost? Rampage Rage: Damn straight I do! Biff owes me, anyway! So whatta you think, Hobo, you gonna give me the next shot, or am I gonna have to make this happen the hard way? Harry: Nah, we don't need none of that nonsense. You want it, it's yours if you beat me! Rampage: Yeah, just don't expect me to play nice like the Powerhouse did, I'm gonna spill your blood an' stomp you into the mud! Harry: Ain't no mud in the Halcyon! Not unless the janitor forgot to clean it! Powers: Hah! *cough* Aw man, that hurts. Rampage: You and me, we got some business to take care of in a month. My main man, Skullface gotta pick himself back up now, but don't you think just 'cause I've been taggin' all this time that I can't bring it, Philly style just as hard as I do with the Mutants against you! Harry: Come an' get it if you want it! We got this! --- Skurai: Like a shadow at midnight, the ninja strikes again. Biff Taylor: Yeah, yeah, cut out all that cryptic mystic talk and tell me what you want like a regular human being! Skurai: The Ninja Ambush. The Running Diamond Cutter. A test of three fourths to determine the sovereign of the pathways. Biff: Um...give me a second here to...ok, you're lookin' to get a shot at the Ruler of the Road! Signed, sealed, delivered. You beat Mint, you earned it. The door to Biff Taylor's office slams wide open, with Bodybreaker Brown and P-Dogg arguing the entire way in, as Downtown Lucy Brown follows behind. P-Dogg: The sucker I kicked beat up on Sir Vlad last time! You ain't tellin' me that counts for nothin! Bodybreaker Brown: Higher level, son, I've been operating at a higher level! Downtown Lucy Brown: You tell him! P-Dogg: Now I'm getting it from both sides here, what, you want in on this, Downtown! Because I'm pissed enough to take you both to the school of hard knocks! Biff: Enough! The trio heed the PEWA President's command, instantly. Biff: Look, if I'm being straight up honest here, I didn't think either of you old dudes were still gonna be wrestlin' in this year! But credit due, you both have been kickin' ass and takin' names out there. So, you both think you deserve a shot at the Hobo...next month, Hellfire Explosion Match, fifteen minute timer. I wanna see if either of you got what it takes. If it's neither, if you both get wiped out by the boom, I'm findin' another choice! Lucy: That ain't fair! Hellfire Explosion matches suck! P-Dogg: You just mad because you lost your belt in one! Lucy: Yeah, so? Biff: Look! This's how it's goin' down, you got a problem, too bad, so sad, take it or leave it! Bodybreaker: I'll take it. And I'm gonna win. P-Dogg: You wish, you don't even know what it's like to be champ! Bodybreaker: Shit, you still keep going on about twenty years ago! P-Dogg: Yeah, and I'm gonna go on again when I beat your ass and get that belt a second time! Biff: And you're all going to get outta my office now! Scram, vamoose, outta here! The arguing trio continue their war of words as they beat a hasty retreat from Taylor's refuge. Biff jumps over to the door as soon as they do, slamming it shut and locking it. Biff: Alright, got that taken care of, about damn time the Biffmeister gets himself some alone time for some well-deserved peace and quiet if I do say so myself. Skurai: The silence is essential for the wise ruler...and the ninja. Biff: Argh! Get out, get out, get out, damn it! |

Trios titles are on the line, as is a chance at the Lone Star Heavyweight title, and a number of underbooked members of the roster get their chance to shine on this big time card for the TIPWF.  TIPWF: Everything's Bigger in Texas8:00 PM (CT) on Friday, February 19th at the Stockade in Amarillo, TX Main Event: TIPWF Lone Star Trios Championship Bout Cogburn Ranch(Cowboy Johnston, Duke Cogburn and Generalissimo Kool Q)(C) vs. Dynasty Cyclones(Layla Al-Amin, La Relampaga(Phoenix Rising) and Esi Dogboe)The biggest test yet for both the current Trios champs and their contenders awaits in this main event confrontation, with the Cogburn Ranch team bringing the power of Cowboy Johnston and the veteran experience of Duke and Kool Q up against the blazing fast attack of Al-Amin, Relampaga and Dogboe. The Dynasty Cyclones have looked impressive so far in their TIPWF debut, turning back a mixed assortment of the fed's competitors, while Cogburn Ranch look to solidify their reign with a win here. TIPWF Lone Star Heavyweight Title #1 Contender Selection Bout Valentina Verda vs. Lil' Lariato vs. Roland Chang Jr. vs. Gorilla Power vs. Canadian Grizzly vs. Felix Santana Jr. vs. The Everyman vs. Colossus RhodesA match reportedly requested by Verda. There will be no over the top eliminations and if the current TIPWF Lone Star Champ does prevail, then it will be Verda's personal selection for the next challenger. However, accomplishing such a task should not be easily done, with some of the biggest names in the deepest roster in the Senatorial Office taking part, most notably, the Golden Touch VIP Club and Rudo EX's mountainous giant, Colossus Rhodes. Jean-Pierre Mutombo with Professor Mark Gizenga vs. Jimmy Jack Walker with Big Bubba Bob and "Long Haul" Lenny BroadwayThe former TIPWF Lone Star champ and former #1 Ranked Mutombo may only hold the Pan African Championship now, but few are expecting anything less than a win here against Jimmy Jack Walker. Still, with Walker's unpredictable drunken ways and remarkable resiliency, and with both the Congolese Connection and the Blue Collar Brawlers represented at ringside, this could end up being a closer match in actuality than it would appear to be on paper. Rudo Army(Salvador Sosa, Killer King Jones and Megan Chabot) vs. The Santana Family(Felix Santana Sr, Felice Santana and Felix Santana III)While the Rudo Army and the Santana Family have become close allies over the previous year, the competitive nature of both units will ensure that this match is as hotly contested as any on the card. Salvador Sosa arrives here off a close defeat to King Bemba in a Golden Touch matchup, and still remains the Dominican Golden Champion, while Felix Santana Senior has continued his unlikely late career momentum even following the Santana Family Wrestling-TIPWF merger, and Felice Santana has shown signs in Phoenix Rising of taking her game to the next level, particularly with her team alongside Riccardo De Luca. The Mallard(MWWC) vs. El Experto with Itzcoatl Hernandez, Poison Froggy Mask and Julio RiveraThe Mallard's series of featured bouts continues in the Office as he goes up against the leader of Rudo EX, El Experto, in a stylistic contrast. Experto will almost certainly bring as much of his Rudo EX stable with him at ringside, but don't expect any of them to actively compete as he sneakily allowed for against Neil at the previous Golden Touch event. Mallard's superior striking and agility should be tough for the Worldwide Luchador to overcome, but likewise, Experto's endless bag of dirty tricks and intricate techniques could also present its own challenge. Margarita Morales vs. Hija de Holy DiverThe Sultry Assassin has fallen by the wayside even before the SFW merger, but looks to climb back up into relevance now with a match against a fellow overlooked, but hardly undertalented competitor in Hija de Holy Diver. While Hija mainly competes along with the Neon Knights for trios bouts, she'll gain a solid singles chance here to shine, giving both entrants here some solid motivation to stand out. Neon Knights(Supernaut and Holy Diver) vs. The EWO(Vice Versa and Martina Martinez)At one point, the Neon Knights were undisputedly the best team in the Office, but repeated changes of scenery, a plethora of rising new teams and the limits of age have brought the interstellar heavy metal luchadors back down to earth. Even so, when the Knights do take the field of battle, they still demonstrate their well-honed aptitude for quick switching and powerful diving, a set of attributes that the Exotico World Order will have to take into account. With Valentina Verda taking the Lone Star Heayvweight title, Vice Versa and Martina Martinez will fight against becoming afterthoughts, and should take the fight to their heralded foes. Lila Gila with Super Komodo vs. Senora Conquistadora with Diego SantanaThe second of the pairings between the former Rudo EX team of lovers and the Animal Farm, with the ladies stepping into the ring, this time. Conquistadora's dangerous lucharesu style will be pitted up against the rather unorthodox, but high energy approach of Gila in what promises to be an action packed battle. Diego Santana with Senora Conquistadora vs. Super Komodo with Lila GilaThe Santana Family's casual outcast will open up the show against the Animal Farm's strangest member in this matchup, the first of two bouts between the former Rudo EX members and the Animal Farm. Diego Santana turned on his own family to join his girlfriend, Senora Conquistadora in El Experto's stable, but the two have recently split from the marauding Rudos to seek out their own success as a pair. Super Komodo has always been a tough one for anyone to figure out, with inconsistent performances in the ring, and a reported habit of never being seen around any arena outside of his Komodo suit. |

While a venue change was precipitated by the weather, it's still going to be a night of big time battles and Texan action at the Beltway Full Contact Martial Arts Center for the TIPWF. The Trios titles are on the line in the main event with the Dynasty Cyclones coming off their impressive TIPWF debut to challenge the Cogburn Ranch's trio. An opportunity to select the next #1 contender for the TIPWF Lone Star Heavyweight title will take place with an eight person battle royale, including the massive Colossus Rhodes, the dual threat, Lil' Lariato, the pride of the Santanas, Felix Santana Jr as well as the champ, Valentina Verda, who gets to handpick the next challenger with a win. Catch all this and much, much more on the Senatorial Streaming Service, starting at 8:00 PM, Central Time, tonight! www.twitch.tv/senatorphillips --- Valentina Verda: One of the really beautiful benefits of being the Office Numero Uno is that I get to really call the shots around here! Usually if I nicely ask Commissioner Callahan to do something like this, he'd just snarl at me to get off his lawn! But seeing that I have the sway now, I've decided I want to give myself a chance here to beat all my contenders away all at once! And if I win, then I get to pick anyone I want to be my next defense, so if I want to make old man Roland Chang Senior's elderly heart fire up with youthful vigor, I can! If I want to do a solid for the Exotico World Order and give Vice or Martina a match, it's my call! If I want to give Timmy Mac the ticket taker a match, well, Ol' Walt can only sign off on it! But I know it's not a done deal! I have to beat a Gorilla, a Grizzly, Houston's Finest Rapper, the Best Santana, a Manly Union Man, and then I have the biggest hunk of beef in the business to deal with! Oh, and Roland Chang Jr's in there, too, but who cares about him? But anyway, this is my chance to take them all on, all at once, and I simply can't wait! |
