With the HAW Theme playing, the event started, showing the Swedish crowd cheering and ready.
Edward Findleton: Welcome to HAW! We're here in Stockholm, Sweden for the next leg of the tour!
THE Casey Gains: The crowd will probably roar at our main event, but to start things off, it's going to be Crash MuscleGate!
Crash came out on the stage with a microphone, holding up his HAW World Championship.
Crash: Thank you Sweden! With a reception like that, no wonder Stockholm Syndrome exist! Right? Right! Moving on to our first match! This will be a non title match...as I first introduce The Insomniac, Kenneth Cobb, the HAW National Champion!
Cobb came out to a warm reception from the crowd, and looked ready to fight.
Crash: And now....the hero all of you Swedes have been waiting for. It's former HAW wrestler, one half of the Chartbreakers, hailing from Finland, Mika Kempi!
After Crash said Finland, the crowd started booing as Mika Kempi made his way out. Crash looked confused, and Mika Kempi stole the mic from Crash's hands.
Mika Kempi: You can't give a warm reception to your neighbor? This is why all of you will be inferior to Finland forever!
The crowd continued to boo, as Mika Kempi made his way to the ring. Referee Tom Hunter called for the bell, and Cobb and Kempi locked up. Cobb seemed to control the majority of the match, with Kempi barely getting any offense in, as The Insomniac dished out punishment. Kempi got desperate, and ran outside of the ring to grab a chair and came in the ring with it. Tom Hunter grabbed the chair from Kempi, and the two argued. Kempi finally relented, and Tom Hunter began to leave the ring with the chair. Kempi quickly reached into his tights to pull out brass knuckles, and swung at Cobb. Cobb ducked, then grabbed Kempi's head with one hand, and Kempi's brass knuckled hand with the other, and bashed them into each other. Mika Kempi fell to the mat, and Cobb covered as Tom Hunter made his way to the ring and counted three.
Edward Findleton: A dominant performance by Kenneth Cobb! And Mika may never want to cross over into this country again!
THE Casey Gains: After that performance, he may never want to go back to Finland!
Edward Findleton: Good point Casey! We're going to take a break away from the ring as it looks like a team meeting is going on between three members in our six man tag later! Let's go backstage!
Rat, Ruslan Panov, and Mitchell Row we're backstage in a dressing room, with Mitchell sitting alone focusing on texting on his phone.
Ruslan: We have a big match tonight. Some rookies...the Samurais of Power. The three of us have history. Rat....you and I....we've been nothing but enemies. We've fought battles, we've hated each other.
Rat: I don't think I'll ever call you a close friend....but I'll admit, I've seen you're a good wrestler.
Ruslan: The thing about being friends though is....I know you and Mitchell were close friends before you betrayed him....and to be honest, I considered Mitchell my best friend...until you've changed this past year Mitch.
Mitchell seemed to not hear anything, still texting on his phone.
Ruslan: I said Mitch, you've changed. You're not who you used to be. You don't even care, do you?
Mitchell held his finger up for a second as if to wait, then held his phone up and took a selfie, before narrating his typing aloud.
Mitchell: Love....you...too...babe...you're...so...hot...and-
Rat grabbed Mitchell's phone from his hand and threw it to the ground.
Mitchell: Hey! I'm talking to my wife!
Rat: You got a match with us as your partners tonight! She's not here, your focus is teaming with us. That's your job, your job is to help us win!
Mitchell: Oh, I'm sorry! Am I out in the ring right now? No! Some of us actually care about our families and beautiful, successful wives!
Ruslan: And what about your friends? Do you care about them?
Mitchell: I pay my butlers very well, thank you.
Ruslan: ….You've changed man.
Ruslan shook his head in disappointment and walked away, as Rat followed. Mitchell picked his phone back and went back to texting.
Back at ringside, orchestra music started playing.
Edward Findleton: Do you hear that Casey? You know what that is?
THE Casey Gains: Enlighten me.
Edward Findleton: The Swedish National Anthem!
At that point, walking onto stage was “Local Legend” Danny Miller.
THE Casey Gains: Edward, if some wrestler doesn't come out backstage and beat him up soon, I think that middle school girl in the front row is going to.
Danny Miller made his way to the ring and took a microphone.
Danny Miller: Thank you, it's great to be home in Sweden! I will do all of you proud, as I represent this country, from the shoreline of Malmo to the mountains of Sarek National Park! Tonight, I even brought my parents to ringside to watch my imminent victory! Hi Mom, Hi Dad!
A spotlight focused on an older couple in the front row, with the woman wearing a “Danny Miller: Oklahoma City's Favorite Son” sweater and the man wearing a “Hartford's Own Local Legend: Danny Miller” shirt. The couple waved, until Fun Fight Machine's music hit and the crowd cheered.
Fun Fight Machine walked down to the couple at ringside, shook their hands, then bowed to them. Fun got into the ring, and referee Brenda Moses rang the bell. Fun hit a roundhouse kick right off the bat that knocked Danny Miller loopy, then grabbed him for a quick DDT. Fun Fight Machine climbed the top rope and delivered a 450 Splash. Fun Fight Machine quickly covered Danny Miller and picked up the win.
Edward Findleton: Swedish heroes are 0-2 tonight!
THE Casey Gains: Neither of which were actually from Sweden, Edward.
Edward Findleton: That's not what my notes said! Either way, we're going live to a pre-recorded video!
It was night, an old woman was walking through a deserted alley way clutching her purse. Suddenly, six criminals with leather jackets, tattoos, and baseball bats come from behind a dumpster, and surround her.
Criminal: Hey lady! Give us the purse and no one gets hurt!
Old Woman: But....the only money I have left is to pay for Miss Furry's cat food! Please!
Criminal: I said give us the purse now!
???: You criminals should maybe pick on someone more...up your alley.
The camera cut to three men walking down the alley, then quick cuts and freezes to each of their faces, with a namecard announcing naming them as “Trickshot,” “Sensei Onaga,” and “Ozzie Reagan.”
Ozzie: You see....you should never do any bad, when the Samurais of Power are around!
Criminal: Get them you fools!
The criminals all rushed at the Samurais of Power, each pulling off kung fu moves to knock the criminals out.
Old Woman: Thank you so much! How can I repay you?
Sensei Onaga: Seeing you safe is enough ma'am. You go feed Miss Furry.
80's synth music started to play, and the Samurais of Power looked up.
Trickshot: That's our music. Let's go!
The three men ran off down the alley, as the camera faded back into the arena, and the Samurais of Power came out of the entrance way.
Edward Findleton: Ozzie Reagan! Trickshot! Sensei Onaga! Look how fast they got here from the streets!
As the Samurais of Power got ready in the ring, the entrances of Rat, Ruslan Panov, and Mitchell Row were next.
THE Casey Gains: You've got a long time veteran, an HAW National Champion, and HAW World Champion all teaming up in this match...but Edward, the question is, can they get along?
Before the match even began, Mitchell was arguing with Ruslan and Rat over who should start the match. Row seemed to finally relent and agreed to start the match against Trickshot. As referee Dennis Thompson called for the bell, Mitchell immediately tagged in Rat and walked out onto the apron.
The match was back and forth, with The Samurais of Power all making frequent tags, show casing high flying moves combined with martial arts. On the other side, Rat and Ruslan were the only competitors, as every time they tried to tag in Mitchell, he would suddenly look away or hop down to ringside to sign an autograph.
Rat was on the defensive against Ozzie Reagan, but managed to hit a desperation clothesline to knock him down. Both competitors started to crawl towards their corners to try to make a tag. Ruslan Panov looked over at Mitchell Row, then kicked him in the back of the head. Row looked completely unconscious, and slumped onto the ropes. Panov nodded to Rat, and Rat lept towards Mitchell's dangling arm.
The tag was made at the same time Ozzie tagged in for Sensei Onaga. Panov grabbed Row's unconscious body and pushed him through the ropes into the ring. Row slowly started to get to his feed, but Onaga ran and hit him with a Headscissors DDT. Sensei Onaga covered him for the pin, and neither Panov nor Rat made any attempt to break it up. Dennis Thompson counted three, and the Samurais of Power picked up their first victory.
Edward Findleton: And what an upset! Sensei Onaga pins the former HAW World Champion.
THE Casey Gains: The more team mates you have in a tag match, the more chemistry plays a bigger part, and without a doubt the Samurais of Power showed excellent chemistry tonight!
Edward Findleton: Indeed! We hope you're enjoying the wrestling tonight, but there's more HAW, later on and in the future! Let's join Crash backstage!
Crash Musclegate: Thanks Edward! What a show! I can't believe the results! Who would have guessed that-
Crash Dubbed Over Voice: Samurais of Power
Crash Musclegate: could have defeated
Crash Dubber Over Voice: Mitchell Row, pinned competitor.
Crash Musclegate: like that? And let's not forget the match of the year candidate between-
Crash Dubbed Over Voice: Fun Fight Machine. AND. Danny Miller.
Crash Musclegate: That was anyone's match! That being said, let's check out the card for the next leg of the tour! Coming to you from Paris, France, Little Man will take on Asher Sutton, and Phueng Ahunai will battle against Penny “The Hammer” Downs! I'll be cheering for the debuting Niko Green against Douglas Brunswick, and the main event....Phoenix go one on one with Frederic St. Pierre! With that much action, it will make the French Revolution look like a cakewalk! I'm going to turn it back over to Edward and Casey to call our main event match between-
Crash Dubber Over Voice: Glenny Pax. Jack Trailor. The Iconoclast. Viking.
Edward Findleton: Thank you Crash! We've had a great show so far, but now it's time for our main event!
Jack Trailor made his entrance first to a decent reaction, followed by Glenny Pax next, who looked worried instead of his normal upbeat self. The crowd then waited in anticipation, and exploded in cheers as Viking's music hit, and the Towering Blights came out, Viking and the Iconoclast.
THE Casey Gains: Finally the person this crowd was waiting for!
Viking helped pump up the crowd, and started the match with Jack Trailor. Both men began with displays of size and strength, utilizing shoves, takedowns and a tests of strength, but Jack Trailor finally hit a powerslam to take control. Viking tagged in The Iconoclast, who used his fresher energy to take control of Jack Trailor. Jack hit a desperation blow on The Iconoclast, and tried to reach out to Glenny Pax for a tag. Glenny however, was distracted, looking all around and above the arena. Jack yelled for him and Glenny snapped to reality to reach his hand out for a tag, but the Iconoclast pulled Jack's foot and dragged him back to the ring. Jack however pushed him away, and made the tag to Glenny.
Glenny cautiously entered the ring. The Iconoclast taunted him, but Jack stood up and gave Glenny some inspiring words. Glenny looked ready, and rushed at Iconoclast to deliver punches, then clotheslined him outside the ring. Glenny was fired up, when the lights in the arena flickered. Glenny looked back up at the lights, distracted. The Iconoclast rolled back in and tagged in Viking, as the jumbotron then flashed and went into a test pattern signal, before going out. Glenny looked at the jumbotron confused, before turning around and bumping into Viking. Viking grabbed Glenny's neck, and hit him with the Throat Toss. Viking quickly covered Glenny, and picked up the win to the crowd's delight.
Edward Findleton: We apologize for the technical difficulties but Viking sends his people home happy tonight, as the Towering Blights pick up the victory! Thank you for tuning in and we'll see you next time in Paris!
