Dark Matches: Fun Fight Machine defeated local talent Keaton Howard, Jet Black defeated local talent Adamus Valentinian
The HAW Theme played to start the show.
Edward Findleton: Welcome to HAW! We’re in Las Vegas tonight, and our main event is Mitchell Row and Scarred Badger vs Sentinel and Phoenix!
Club Corruption’s music played, and Night Prince and Ninja made their way out, with Night Prince grabbing a microphone.
Night Prince: We…are challengers. We…are fighters. And we are to be taken seriously. We’re calling out Jack Trailor and Danny Miller, right now!
After a brief pause, Trailer and Miller made their way out to cheers and got into the ring.
Night Prince: Last week….you tried to embarrass us.
Jack Trailor: Sorry.
Night Prince: This week….it is your turn to look like fools!
Danny Miller: Your title match against us isn’t this week! I’ve got a singles match tonight.
Night Prince: Exactly….because we found out who you’re facing! Bwahaha!
At that point, the music of Peter “Carnage” Horn hit, and he made his way down to the ring with Alfred Karneus.
THE Casey Gains: I have to be honest, with the way Horn has been, if this was a four on one handicap match with both teams ganging up, I think Horn would win.
Edward Findleton: The Las Vegas Legend will certainly have his work cut out for him!
As the match began, Danny Miller was able to get some early offense in, but Peter “Carnage” Horn quickly subdued him, pinning Miller with the Side Sitout Powerslam in 4:28.
Horn left the ring as Alfred Karneus wrote Miller’s name in Chapter 9 in the Book of Carnage, while Jack Trailor rolled in to check on him. Club Corruption took that moment to jump Jack Trailor, and the two proceeded with a beatdown on the tag champs. Ninja and Night Prince went to the top rope on separate corners of the ring. Ninja jumped off the top, delivering a Frog Splash to Danny Miller. Trailer started to get to his feet and turned around to Night Prince hitting a Diving Meteora. With both men out of it, Club Corruption climbed the ropes to celebrate, as the crowd booed them.
Edward Findleton: The crowd doesn’t like it, but hurting your opponents a week before your title match isn’t a bad strategy, Casey.
THE Casey Gains: I’m not surprised, in a championship match, you need to prepare and do everything you can to win.
Edward Findleton: Speaking of championship matches, we’re going to check in backstage with Gregory Greystone with a championship interview!
Gregory Greystone: Hello ladies and gentlemen! I’m here with the former number one contender for the HAW National Championship, The Rookie Kyle Higgins!
Kyle Higgins: Actually, I AM the HAW National Champion.
Pastor James: You are not!
Pastor James came storming in.
Pastor James: Thou shall not steal. Have you ever heard of that? You STOLE my championship.
Kyle Higgins: I pinned you twice, actually.
Pastor James: You didn’t! Those weren’t matches! You lie now?! How many commandments must you break?!
Kyle Higgins: But…haven’t you done those things?
Pastor James: Mr. Higgins I have never said I am a perfect man, we all know the Lord is the only one without sin. But I do not disrespect my peers like you do.
Kyle Higgins: YOU…”stole” my title shot. YOU…lied about my title shot. And quite frankly, you cowardly tried to sneak out of it. So if you want your title back, then defend it against it me next week.
Pastor James: I should never tolerate a ransom threat, especially from you of all people, Mr. Higgins. But, you’re right. I did say I would defend my title against you but…I changed my mind. I was trying to protect you. I saw you were a good man, a good husband, father…maybe even a grandfather? Great grandfather? I don’t really know quite how old you are or how sinful your children are but I didn’t want to cause this harm to your frail body that an HAW National Championship would match would ensure. But….my good man, you leave me no choice. I’ll take what is mine from you, next week, in the ring at Summit of Success.
Kyle Higgins: ……Then I’ll see you next week.
The two men stared each other down before going their own ways.
Gregory Greystone: Pastor James vs The Rookie Kyle Higgins for the HAW National Championship! We’ll see that at Summit of Success! Back to you Edward and Casey!
THE Casey Gains: Higgins got his match! Now, can he actually pin Pastor James in a real wrestling scenario?
Edward Findleton: It’s a bitter feud they’ve got going, and speaking of bitter feuds, we’ve got a match next of two teams with a long standing hatred for each other, The Strange Crew will take on the Biofuel Engineers.
The Biofuel Engineers came out first, accompanied by the Exotic Delights, while all four members of the Strange Crew came out, Drizzles the Clown and Hawaii ready to wrestle.
In an even paced match, the bell was rung at 10:11 when police officers came down to the ring, handcuffing The Biofuel Engineers and escorting them out of the ring.
Ring Announcer Bradley Wallace: Ladies and gentlemen, I have been informed by referee Brenda Moses that due to unpaid Vegas gambling debts from an anonymous tip, the Biofuel Engineers have been disqualified. The winners of this match, The Strange Crew!
THE Casey Gains: Anonymous tip?!
Drizzles and Hawaii acted over the top shocked, covering their mouths with their hands. Jessie and Sally came into the ring, with Jessie also acting like she didn’t know what happened. The Biofuel Engineers struggled up the ramp, shouting for lawyers and claiming a misunderstanding .
Lela chased after Sydney and Dalton, while Phueng went to the ring. She walked up to Jessie and slapped her across the face. Sally took a few steps forward, but Phueng walked back and exited the ring. Sally followed, and realizing that, Phueng sped up. The rest of the Strange Crew followed Sally, all heading to the back.
Edward Findleton: Folks, we have some very serious allegations going on tonight! Maybe we can get a camera backstage?
Backstage, The Biofuel Engineers were being escorted into police cars, when suddenly there was a loud commotion off screen. The camera turned to reveal Mayor Briggs, The United States, and El Espectro attacking Oden Schreiner, Lovable Liam, and Frederic St. Pierre. The MuscleGang was slammed into the walls and driven into the concrete floor, while a few backstage objects were used as weapons to brutalize them some more. Backstage staff finally broke them up and the camera cut back to ringside.
Edward Findleton: It’s a little bit chaotic tonight, wouldn’t you say?
THE Casey Gains: Let’s try to bring some order and class to this next tag team match!
The music of Mitchell Row hit, and out came Row, Scarred Badger, and Kitty Kayleen.
Edward Findleton: They call Vegas home now, but the crowd isn’t welcoming them!
THE Casey Gains: And yet they cheered for Danny Miller?!
Phoenix and Sentinel made their way to the ring next to cheers.
Edward Findleton: Let’s see if the video scouting from last week has paid off for these two!
A hard fought match took place, but when Kitty discreetly slipped Scarred Badger a sock of quarters, he hit Sentinel and picked up the victory in 11:22.
THE Casey Gains: Finally! The good guys win!
Edward Findleton: They’ll definitely be celebrating out on the town tonight, although I’m sure the locals won’t be too happy.
The winners left the ring, and Sentinel started to get to his feet alone, as Phoenix grabbed a microphone.
Phoenix: Hey man……we lost. Again.
Sentinel: …I’m sorry.
Phoenix: I really appreciate everything you’ve done for me but…we need to go our separate ways. Every week, we lose…and you’re the one getting pinned. You’ve taught me so much, but now…you’re just an anchor weighing me down.
Sentinel looked hurt, then shook his head no.
Sentinel: I don’t think you’re ready.
Phoenix: I am ready!
Sentinel: Kid, you may be right. I probably can’t go in the ring as well as I used to. I’ve got more aches, it’s more difficult to keep in shape. But number one, I’m not done. And number two…you still have a lot to learn.
Phoenix: I can’t learn if you’re holding me back!
Sentinel: Tactics like tonight, you need to be ready for that! You’ll run into so many cheaters!
Phoenix: And yet you’re the one who fell for them!
Sentinel: ……….I’ll tell you what kid. If you manage to beat me…I’ll give you my blessing to go your own way.
Phoenix: How about next week at Summit of Success?
Sentinel: You’ve got yourself a deal.
Phoenix and Sentinel shook hands, and departed the ring together.
Edward Findleton: Well it looks like next week, it’s protege vs master!
THE Casey Gains: A lot is on the line next week, including the HAW World Championship. And the fate of the universe! Is that still a thing?
Edward Findleton: With Glenny Pax as champion, it always is!
Glenny Pax’s music hit, and he made his way out to the ring, accompanied by a single Visitor.
Edward Findleton: And speaking of him, here he comes, the Leader of the Visitors!
As Glenny got to the ring, he took a microphone but instead of speaking, motioned to his Visitor. The Visitor got onto his knees and bent over, and Glenny sat on his back, facing the entrance ramp. Glenny stared in silence at the entrance ramp with no emotion. Suddenly, the pyro of The Behemoth went off, and Glenny smiled. The challenger made his way down and got in the ring, looking ready to attack, but Glenny held up a hand.
Glenny Pax: Stop. An attack right now won’t help you.
The Behemoth reluctantly took a step back, but circled Glenny around the ring, who continued sitting.
Glenny Pax: Behemoth…I have this memory….from years ago. It’s you…destroying Glenny Pax in this ring. You manhandled him, made him look weak. It’s easy to make someone look weak, but it’s a challenge…to make them stronger. And Glenny Pax is now stronger than ever, and dare I say…stronger than you.
The Behemoth stood in front of Glenny and cracked his knuckles.
Glenny Pax: But I admire strength and power. Power is the only thing that keeps the universe in motion. And when a man of your power challenged me, I was very intrigued. We have a match next week at Summit of Success. The Intergalactic Title will be on the line. But I know what is most important to you. Your safety of your good friend, Rat.
The Behemoth took a step forward to now tower over Glenny, who remained seated, looking up at him.
Glenny Pax: I will offer you a deal. I want more than this championship on the line. I want to harness your power. So shake my hand if you accept this…I will return Rat next week, regardless of the outcome. But if you lose…You will come with me, and The Behemoth will be taken away from earth….forever.
Glenny stood up and extended his hand for a shake. The Behemoth didn’t hesitate, and shook Glenny’s hand. Glenny Pax smiled and started to laugh. He tried to move away, but The Behemoth held onto his hand. With a yank of his arm, The Behemoth forced Glenny back to him and into a clothesline. The Behemoth kicked The Visitor in the stomach, then grabbed Glenny again. He picked Glenny up and hit the Powerbomb Shoulderbreaker, and stood over the challenger.
Edward Findleton: The Behemoth has accepted the deal, but it doesn’t mean he can’t inflict some pain!
THE Casey Gains: A year ago I feel like this would have been the most lopsided match in HAW history but now….I just don’t know what to expect with Glenny Pax.
Edward Findleton: It’s going to be a match you won’t want to miss! We’re out of time but we’ll see you next week at Summit of Success!
