SWF Main Event 7/31/04

We open with a recap of last night's great PPV, and the AMAZING return of Extreme Superstar, reclaiming ownership of the SWF.

Extreme starts the live show off, coming down in a SWEET new jersey, which must have been set to be released by the SWF before his sabbatical, as fans in the crowd wear them too. The jersey is sleeveless, silver, with a black Superman shield, that has a black star in the middle of it on the front. On the back, also in black is written "Innovator of Extreme". The crowd goes ballistic, and massive "Welcome back" as well as "Superstar" chants go up. Extreme grabs a mic, and stands in the ring, beaming, while the fans continue their cheering.

Extreme(soaks in some cheers, and smiles): Damn, it's good to be back! (the crowd pops big, and Extreme goes into a more serious mode) However, I must apologize for my behavior. I'm sorry I walked off like that. I was a confused man, too ashamed to be the person you wanted me to be, and for that, I am truly sorry. But it was your support that caused me to snap out of the sorry state I was in. When I saw what BDM was turning the SWF into, I got angry. The metaphorical lights snapped back on the adrenaline began to surge, the fire started up, and I knew I had returned to being the man I needed to be. I hope that you all can understand, I never meant to hurt any of you, and I ask for your forgiveness. (the fans cheer, and Extreme has been absolved, Extreme nods in thanks). Alright, now onto new business, as owner of the SWF, I can't keep the title (big boos, and Extreme shrugs), it would just cause too much of a problem in the locker room. BUT, let me tell you, I am going to make the title match I have decided on to crown the new champion, take place RIGHT HERE TONIGHT! (HUGE pop) It's all a part of the NEW, even more intense, and action packed SWF! In my return, the SWF product is gonna get the life BDM tried to suck out, shocked directly back into it's heart! And speaking of BDM, I have to admit, he really was a deserving champion, like him or not, the man has a legit claim to the # 1 contender's spot. So, he will be one participant in the title match, but the other, is a man I am just not willing to give up on, a man who DESERVES another crack at the title, and with the fire lit under him, I feel he could achieve his dream of being a champion, CRAZY PHIL! (BIG pop) On top of all that, there will be a special guest referee to make sure it is called DIRECTLY down the middle, ME! (GIANT pop) With that all settled, (looks to the announce position) Vance? Would you please start this show off right?

Vance stands up, and the camera cuts to him as he shows up on the big screen. His mic headset is turned live to the whole arena, and he speaks:

Vance(excited): Sure thing, (smiling) boss! (another big pop) Let's (as usual, the fans say it with him) KICK IT OFF!

Extreme leaves the ring, and pyro goes off, hyping the crowd up even more, then the announcers start hyping the night as a landmark even in SWF history, with Extreme's return and all. Dean apologizes for not giving us the rundown of the card, saying he is flying by the seat of his pants like the rest of us tonight. The bell soon rings, and we find out our first match.

Jules vs Rory Rogers
Jules enters all badass, and steps right up to Rory, then smacks him! The fans really are taking to his badass character, but Rory is pissed, and stomps Jules down, however Jules is too tough, fighting back with some street-style brawling. Jules ends up dominating, then hits the BMF Bomb (Pearl River Plunge Tiger Driver variant) for the 1-2-3!
*Winner* Jules

We go backstage, where we see Extreme walking through the back, where crew members (and some face wrestlers, like Generation Gap) all run up and welcome him back. Extreme is beaming, and looks so happy to be back, then Angelica Summers rushes up, looking excited to see Extreme. She runs right up and hugs him, telling him how glad she is he came back. Extreme says he is glad to be back, and glad to see her. He tells her of some "Really cool plans for the next SWF PPV", titled Heatwave, which will be taking place August 27th. He says he is ironing out the details, and will have more next week, but says the show will take place in a "special location". He once again comments on how nice it was to see her, and excuses himself to tend to some other business (probably prep for his referee job later on), but invites her to "Hang out" after the show, which she accepts. There seems to be real romantic interest there, Vance & Dean, comment on it, saying the two have had "Undeniable chemistry" ever since they met. The fans also seemed to pick up on this as well.

From that, we go to Faith & Devotion, who stand talking down the hall from where Extreme & Angelica were. They discuss how they lost the Hardcore Gauntlet last night, and how their quest to rid the SWF of the Hardcore title isn't over yet, despite Extreme refusing to give them another title shot , to prevent them from trying to banish the belt again. They express their anger, but talk of their "secret weapon", a person, whom they have transformed, and "revealed the inner demon" of. The two say they have sinister plans tonight to get their message across, and are set to reveal their new, "re-motivated wrecking machine" to the world.

SWF Hardcore title match: Jack Suicide vs Charles Gunn
Jack is said to still be hurt from the Hardcore Gauntlet last night, which he barely managed to win, last defeating Charles, which explains this match. Charles starts with a bullrope (and attached cowbell) in hand, while Jack searches frantically for a weapon, and slides outside for a chair. Charles lets Jack slide in again, then starts whipping him with the bullrope, using the bell part! Jack scurries to put the chair up to defend himself, while Charles is unrelenting in his assault. As Charles whips away, Xavier Hawthorne sneaks in from behind, nailing him with that loaded fake book of his, titled "The Code of Ethics"! The referee jumps in to push Xavier back, but The Reverend runs out as well, coming from the crowd to attack a recovering Jack Suicide! Xavier pushes the ref aside to beat on Charles some more, as Tex Gentry, and Rory Rogers run out to help their Good Ol' Boys stable mate Charles Gunn, and Mike Suicide runs out to help his brother Jack! All 3 hit the ring, and work together to attack F&D, then Yeti runs out?! Yeti helps out F&D by DESTROYING everyone in the ring that was out to get them! He must be their secret weapon, and boy, does he look motivated! Anyways, the bell rings, as the ref has tossed this out, even though it's a Hardcore title match, due to both participants being unable to continue.
*No Contest*

Post Match: F&D pull themselves up, and look happy, as Yeti pulls off his mask! The fans, and announcers are stunned by this, now we finally see his face! He looks like Batista, when he was in OVW as Leviathan, he's bald, has an EVIL black soul patch, and light color contacts. F&D then grab the ref, as the newly invigorated Yeti tosses everyone but Jack from the ring, making it obvious F&D are going to try and steal the Hardcore title back! Reverend covers Jack, but the ref won't count! He flees the ring before anyone can harm him! The ring announcer tells us the reason why is because Extreme Superstar has banned Faith & Devotion not only from official Hardcore title matches, but ALL matches of the division, there is no way they can ever win the title! The crowd pops, and F&D look pissed, then snatch a mic for themselves. Rev then speaks:

Reverend(angry): Well, you can ban us from the hardcore division Extreme Superstar, but we shall remain undeterred! The reason is (points to Yeti, standing menacingly in the background) our new foot solider in the war against depravity, who, from this day forward, shall be known as Daimon, that's D-a-i-m-o-n, which is simply a word for evil spirit. This monster is of the very evil we are out to destroy, we have recruited him for the sole purpose of eradicating all the other vice in the SWF, who better to help us than a product of that sin? Daimon is the unmerciful soul needed to carry out our mission, with him, we can achieve our goals, without having the guilt of transgression weighing on our heads. This is NOT the same man who you are used to seeing, he has been re-programmed, born again, becoming an unstoppable force, one who ensures our cause victory! (big boos) Wait and see brothers and sisters, morality will once again rise to the top, leaving all the scum to wash away into the sewers of oblivion! (more loud boos)

The three walk off, as officials come down to aid the hurt men in, and around the ring. The announcers say F&D, as well as their new monster, Daimon, the former Yeti, have made an impact.

We head backstage, where Lt. Jim Dingle is handed another letter by a crew member. He has been getting odd letters the past few weeks, receiving one at last night's PPV most recently. This one says "I'm getting too excited, I can hardly wait, but the time isn't right. It won't be long though, then the fun will start". Dingle looks a bit weirded out, then says "I sure hope this isn't some perv, only out to grab my....(notices the camera) Killer collection of custom made Police Academy figures, yeah. Those took a long time making....(nervous laughing) The Hightower figure took like 6 weeks alone, I had to wait on an order of fabric for his uniform, that got delayed, (throws up hands and rolls his eyes) and it turned into a whole to-do....(awkward silence as he stares at the camera man) Why are you giving me that look? It's a hobby. I don't play with them or anything, just make new clothes for them, and put them on display. (more awkward silence, then Dingle runs off) The announcers, and fans all crack up over the segment, as usual with Dingle. Dingle is getting pretty popular for his wacky hijinx.

From that, we go to Crazy Phil, sitting with The Janitor in the locker room, where Janitor is psyching a nervous Phil for his big title match tonight. Extreme, clad in his ref shirt soon enters the scene, and the following exchange takes place:

Extreme(serious, pats Phil on the back): How are you feeling Phil?

Phil(serious): I'm more than a little nervous.

Extreme(slight laugh, and a smile): I bet. But, don't let that throw you off, tonight is YOUR night (big pop from the crowd)You've faced BDM before, and I've seen the fire, and heart you put into every match your in, just stay focused, you should be fine. (gets serious, looks Phil in the eyes) You know I'm going to call it fair and square, right down the line out there, but I want you to know something. When I first saw you at the SWF tryouts, (slight laugh) you weren't much in the ring, and you were older than everyone else, people thought you were part of a gag to be honest. But *I* saw past it, I saw how much you NEEDED to be in the SWF. I also saw that you had more passion, more desire than ANYONE else I'd ever seen, ANYWHERE. YOU Phil, embody the spirit in which I started this company, there was no way on earth I could have passed up on you. As we worked hard together to make you a better athlete, I got to know you, and soon after, so did the fans. We all got to see the truly amazing person you are Phil. (All 3 men look near tears) Win or lose tonight, I am DAMN proud to have ever met you, and of the wrestler you have become on top of that. (serious again, fighting his emotion) Now you listen to me Phil, you go out there tonight, and you FIGHT, you fight with EVERYTHING in your SOUL dammit. If it still isn't enough, I'll tell you here and now, not ONE person could be ashamed of you.

Phil(fighting tears himself): I can't ever possibly thank you for all you've done to help me Extreme....Rob. Despite being younger than me, you've taken this broken down old man under your wing, like a mentor, and made him believe in himself again. For you, Janitor here, and all the fans out there who have stood behind me, you can sure as hell bet I'm going out there with everything I've got (big pop). Tonight is the chance to further prove to myself, and everyone else that I am not a bum. I sure as hell don't win every match, but it seems with every one, win or lose, the effort I put in, earns me a little more of what I have been searching to regain for many years, respect. It's not so much about winning the title, but being able to say I went out there, and TRIED, tried with all my heart, that is why tonight means so much to me, thanks again Rob for this chance.

Extreme(smiles, pats Phil on the back): Any time Phil. Well, I'll leave you to prepare, good luck, and I'll see you out there.

Extreme walks away, and Janitor & Phil continue to discuss the match later on. We follow Extreme, who walks into the Cash Inc locker room, where all 3 members are relaxing. There is a tense stare down, and the following exchange:

Extreme(stares around at everyone, looking a bit pissed): Look, I'm not here looking for trouble, as far as I'm concerned, Redemption last night served as payback for your little takeover. (looks at BDM) I just dropped by to let you know, I intend to call the match right down the middle, and that none of the recent problems between us will disrupt my judgement. I figured maybe you'd like to hear that straight from me, considering what happened last night.

BDM: Alright, I appreciate the heads up, (gets serious) but I am warning you, if you screw me over again, all that has happened between us will be like Sunday dinner at grandma's house compared to what's in store for you then.

Extreme(mock scared): Oh yes sir, I certainly won't make THAT mistake again. (crowd laughs) I mean, wow, just imagine how horribly I'd have to foil your plans then. Look at Redemption, damn, you got crushed in SECONDS! If MORE were to go down between us, there might not be anything left of you! (more laughs)

BDM(sarcastic laugh, and applause): Oh, that's cute. (angry) But I wasn't joking.

Extreme(serious): Well, you don't have to worry about it, like I said, fair and square. (with a bit of venom) Good luck.

Extreme exits with anger, leaving Cash Inc pissed, and BDM promising to win the title back, as well as declaring his disdain of Extreme. We then head back to the ring for the next match.


SWF 6 Man title match: The Breakfast Club vs Generation Gap
The match starts with Nerd & X, who have and even, high flying based exchange. Burnout tags in, and is overcome by X's speed, then manages to wear down X after a bit. X takes the beating, before tagging Jimmy, who turns the tide, forcing Burnout to tag Jock. Jock uses his power to dominate, and Jimmy tags to Danny, who does well, but ultimately falls to Jock's power too. With things in hand, Jock seems to be ready to finish things, when all the sudden, the Saved by the Bell theme hits?! Before you know it, all these people, dead ringers for the Saved by the Bell cast run out, Zach, Slater, Screech, Kelly, Lisa, Jessie, and even Belding, all swarming Breakfast Club, with the girls on the outside beating on The Freak & The Rich Girl! Generation Gap seem weirded out, and decide this is too much for them, and leave, while the ref calls for the bell.
*Winners, by DQ* The Breakfast Club

Post Match: The Saved by the Bell imposters continue to beat on TBC until they are all left laying. As their music continues, they celebrate before taking off, to the shock of everyone. Vance & Dean wonder what their intentions are, and speculate on a possible war, with iconic angst ridden movie "teens", vs the equally iconic bubble gum tv "teens".

We head backstage again, where Angelica is waiting behind the curtain, and stops the new youths (and the Mr. Belding impersonator). She then begins to interview them:

Angelica: So, can you explain what you guys were doing out there, and introduce yourselves?

The Zach Lookalike: We are The Bell Kids, inspired by those lovable characters from the classic show, Saved by the Bell! I'm Zach, (points to each lookalike to assign their names) this is Slater, Screech, Lisa, Kelly, Jessie, and of course, our mentor, and confidant, Belding!

Angelica: Ok, but why attack The Breakfast Club?

Slater: I'll tell you why. We are out to prove that their image of angst ridden youths isn't accurate, and is damaging to all those fun-loving, impressionable kids out there!

Kelly: We aren't all grouchy, unhappy people, some of us ENJOY our lives!

Jessie: Yeah! Not all of us sit around and whine about how bad things are, we prefer to actually take action, and improve ourselves!

Lisa: Angelica, those guys need to stop acting all sad, quit listening to the Thompson Twins, pop on some Milli Vanilli, and hit the mall for some shoes! They'd feel much better then!

Screech(to Lisa): Tell `em my darling buttercup!

All the kids together: SHUT UP SCREECH!

Belding: And what about their principle? Never in my day have I seen such a poor excuse for a school administrator! Even Valley's principal is nicer to his students!

Zach: The bottom line is, Breakfast Club, you want something to cry about? Now you've got it! (to the whole gang) LET'S GO BAYSIDE! (everyone cheers, puts their hands in the middle for one of those hand pile deals, and then they take off)

Angelica(somewhat taken aback by the oddness of all this): Umm.... Back to the ring for the next match.


Alabama Man vs Tony Ramon
Alabama Man puts up a good fight, but Tony is really stepping it up, now he's free of The Don. Speaking of whom, Don runs out, only to get popped a good one by Tony, who turns back to AM, and soon scores his finisher, The Edge, and covers for the 1-2-3.
*Winner* Tony Ramon

Post Match: Don recovers, and pounces Tony as he celebrates his victory! Officials rush in to pull the men apart! The announcers talk of the heated war now breaking out between the former Kings of the Street.

We head back to the announcers, who do some final hype before the big title match, and discuss what possible location Extreme has set for the Heatwave show. Talk then turns to the Angelica/Extreme relationship, which seemed to come out in an earlier segment. Vance & Dean say the pair have spent a lot of time together, maintaining it's all platonic. Vance & Dean don't say it in words, but use expressions to suggest they sense more there. Then, they bring up some exciting news, that Extreme was cast in a movie, set to be a huge epic action/adventure, co-starring the lovely Catherine Zeta Jones. He is set to be the lead opposite Mrs. Zeta Jones, and filming will start in a few weeks. They say Extreme will be able to stick around for most of the time, until October, when he will have to go to Egypt for a few weeks to film some of the final action scenes. Apparently, the movie is about Extreme, playing a special agent, tracking down big time gun runners/drug dealers who almost killed him, by going undercover, then falling for Catherine Zeta Jones' character, the eldest daughter of the ringleader (played by Al Pacino) of the operation, who is an unwitting pawn in her father's business. Extreme fights for revenge, and to rescue Catherine from the life she is trapped in. It is called "Best Served Cold", and according to Vance & Dean, is being hyped as a sure-fire smash hit, set to be released fairly quickly after filming, to be in theaters by the Christmas box office blitz. With all that out of the way, it is finally time for the main event!

Main Event: For the vacant SWF World title: The Billion Dollar Man vs Crazy Phil
As referee, Extreme comes out first, in his traditional shorts and sneakers, but with a referee's shirt on, carrying the SWF title. The fans pop huge for him, and Extreme look serious, giving them only a kind smile and wave before taking a place on the far side of the ring. Phil enters next, looking focused, to another big pop, and when he gets in the ring, Extreme smiles to acknowledge him, keeping it professional. BDM enters to the mega boos he is used to, seeming ready to go. BDM takes off his entrance garb, and Extreme calls both men to the center of the ring for instructions. He then holds up the belt, before handing it off to the timekeeper. Both participants, having been told to go to the corners before the bell, come out, and BDM demands Extreme check the wrestlers for weapons before calling for the bell, a rather archaic practice! He obviously is trying to rile Extreme, but Extreme plays it off, and does it. After that, he calls for the bell, backs off, and the match is under way! BDM comes on strong, does a go-behind, then drops down to school boy Phil, which Extreme is right on to fairly count two. BDM & Extreme exchange a look, BDM glaring at him, as if to warn Extreme again about showing bias, but he knows he is doing his job well for the time being. Phil comes up fighting, and he turns it up to the delight of the fans, taking BDM to town. The camera split screens, and we see some unfamiliar people making their way to reserved seats in the front row, on the opposite side (as opposed to the camera side) of the ring. While Phil plants BDM with a jawbreaker, Extreme glances up at the big screen above the entrance, seeing the unknown arrivals take their seats. He looks over to them, smiles, and gives a quick knowing wave. Phil sees them as well, looking shocked to see them, then looks at Extreme, before BDM getting up takes him back to the fight. Vance & Dean tell us that is Phil estranged family! Extreme apparently had them flown in for this match! A graphic goes up on the screen, along with a quick shot of the family(his wife, named Laurie, daughter Susan, who is about 20 years old, and son Daniel, who is a few years older I'd guess) to clue in the live viewers. Vance & Dean say Phil hasn't seen his family since his downward spiral began about a decade ago. BDM starts to make his comeback, but Phil is really inspired, maybe after seeing his family, who look on, interested, but with unreadable expressions. The crowd gets behind Phil, and chants for him start, which seem to impress Phil's family, Dean says they are finally seeing that Phil has truly made something of himself in the wake of all his mistakes. Back to the match, BDM turns the tide, as he pummels Phil, and attempts several pins, but Phil won't stay down. BDM tries to go for the Billion Dollar Bomb, but Phil backdrops out of it! BDM recovers, fights back, tries again, but Phil pulls away! The fans cheer, and Phil's family start to get into it. BDM uses a harsh DDT, covers, only gets two, and now is getting frustrated. He lets Phil recover, and sneaks behind him, setting up for the Billion Dollar Dream! Extreme looks worried, but knows that it'd be wrong to do anything to help Phil. Phil starts to get up, BDM smiles, ready to cinch the hold on, and Extreme looks on worried, with the camera closing in to see his face, while some fans try to egg him on to help Phil, but he seems pained, as doing so wouldn't be right. Once Phil is fully on his feet, BDM snatches him, and locks his signature hold on! The fans gasp, then boo, while Extreme, and Phil's family cringe. Extreme seems to be silently rooting Phil on, then, Phil moves his foot behind BDM, who swings him in the hold, thus tripping him, and he floats over into a pin, whilst still tangled in the hold! Vance & Dean comment that Extreme must have taught him that hold while training him. The fans pop huge, Extreme smiles, then closes in quickly to count the pin, 1......2.......NO! SO close! Extreme looks disappointed, like everyone, but instantly removes the look, in an effort to stay objective. Phil untangles himself, and waits for BDM to get up, nailing him with a dropkick! The fans pop big again, while Phil feeds off their energy to signal his second wind! Phil's family are seen smiling, and clapping now, while Phil starts with his big flurry of offense on BDM. As Phil takes BDM to school, Jahalaman Jaffe & Joe Money are seen wandering out from the entrance! Extreme spots them, and looks pissed, ready to go out to them, when Janitor sneaks up on them to attack! Now, Jaffe, Joe & Janitor are battling in the aisle! Extreme has no choice but to address this, as other officials come to separate the brawl, he exits, and starts towards the melee. Meanwhile, Phil has BDM in the corner to dish out more punishment, when The Mercenary is seen coming from the crowd to aid BDM! Extreme hears the commotion, and rushes back to the ring, nailing Merc with a HUGE spear right before he can attack Phil! The crowd goes crazy, and Extreme tosses Mercenary from the ring, when Petey Pizzazz & JuJu, also known to be Cash Inc allies run out as well! Extreme goes to work, fending them both off, allowing Phil to continue his fight with BDM uninterrupted! Once everyone is gone, and the fight in the aisle is broken up, focus returns to the match, where BDM fights up, nails a kick, and sets Phil up for the Billion Dollar Bomb out of NOWHERE! The crowd, barely having time to settle from all the other excitement, shriek in horror, as BDM scores with the move! BDM rolls through for the pin, and Extreme sadly, but dutifully slides down for the cover, 1.........2............NO!!!!! PHIL KICKED OUT!!!! The arena explodes, Extreme & BDM stare at each other, stunned, and Phil starts to get up! BDM goes on the attack, but Phil fights him off! Phil is doing his own Hulk up! The fans, Phil's family, Vance & Dean, and Extreme can't hold their excitement, as Phil ROCKS BDM with punches, then whips him off the ropes for a back body drop! BDM goes down, gets up, only to be slammed again! Extreme is nearly jumping up and down, cheering Phil on, and once BDM gets up again, Phil kicks him, then hooks him in for the Crazy Crusher! He hits it! Phil's family is shown, now jumping with the fans, tears in their eyes, while Vance & Dean shout about Phil closing in on becoming the champ. Phil goes down for the cover, and an ecstatic Extreme gladly jumps down to enthusiastically count it, with the crowd riled, counting with him, 1.............2...........3!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! PHIL WON THE TITLE! I don't believe it! The arena comes UNGLUED, and Extreme rushes to grab the title, happily running it back to Phil, with joy, and emotion overtaking both of them. Extreme hands Phil the gold, and exclaims "You did it!", as the two hug, and Phil's music plays.
*Winner, and NEW SWF World Champion* Crazy Phil!

Post Match: Extreme & Phil celebrate in riotous joy, with Extreme holding Phil's hand up to the delight of the fans, Phil's crying family, and Vance & Dean. Extreme then puts the gold on Phil, and calls Phil's family into the ring! The family rushes in, all crying their eyes out, and have a tearful reunion, with fans going nuts for all of it, many crying along with them. Extreme, who stands in the ring with them even looks misty eyed. After the family is reunited, and standing happy, Phil walks to Extreme, and says "Thank you", which Extreme responds by saying "You earned it", then they hug once more. BDM, who rolled out of the ring has recovered on the floor, and looks up at the happy group in the ring. He seems dejected, but stares at Phil, stunned for a few seconds, then nods in respect before walking off. Even he can't deny Phil's spirit. Vance & Dean soon leave the announce booth, Angelica Summers, as well as the faces on the SWF roster all come down to celebrate, and congratulate Phil, then pyro goes off as the fans stand, applaud. We close the show with the celebrating going on in the ring. That's two awesome shows in a row, nice to have the Extreme One back, living up to his promise in shaking the SWF back to life.

END OF SHOW

SWF Redemption

We open with a video similar to the ones that have been all over SWF broadcasts, this one beginning with a black screen, and these words in red scrolling up the screen, while a creepy man's voice narrates:

Redemption:
1. The action of redeeming or of being redeemed.

2. A thing that saves someone from error or evil.

3. TONIGHT.

Redemption IS at hand.

A bell then tolls before we go live. The set is basically the same as a typical SWF Main Event set, except the graphics are red, and in gothic text, that say "SWF Redemption". The ring aprons, ropes, turnbuckles, and banners are black, with the red gothic logo on them.

Vance(looking a little disturbed): I tell you Dean, these vignettes that have plagued SWF programming for some time are a little unsettling to say the least. I honestly have no idea what they are about.

Dean(looking similar to Vance): Not only that Vance, but the thought that some unknown individual is pulling the strings here in the SWF since you announced BDM lost his power is equally unnerving. But tonight, it looks like we will find out who that person is, when they face off with BDM for the SWF World title in the main event! The whole show is gonna be stellar, with all these great matches lined up:

Petey Pizzazz defends his U.S. title against the man he stole the title from at Slamboree, The Freedom Fighter, in one of the night's several "Redemption" matches, where champions who lost their titles at Slamboree due to BDM's shenanigans get the chance to "redeem" themselves, and win the gold back! In these Redemption matches, any foul play results in not only the title being stripped from the champion, should they be involved in it, but ANYONE who breaks the rules, whether they are in the match, or come down to help, will be fired on the spot!

In another Redemption Match, The Television champ, The Mercenary defends against Octane!

In a very interesting type of "Redemption" match, the men who BDM helped win the Hardcore title, then let abolish it at Slamboree, Faith & Devotion, will be forced into a 20 man Gauntlet Battle Royal! The last reigning champion, The Reverend has been given the reactivated title, and he and his partner, as well as co-conspirator, Xavier Hawthorne III are going to be pitted against 18 other SWF superstars, including the champion the man Reverend beat for the title, Jack Suicide. In this match, 2 men start, like a Rumble match, and every 90 seconds, the next man enters. It continues until all participants have entered, and the means of elimination is going over the top rope, as in a battle royal, until only 2 men remain, at which time, it will turn into a singles match, the winner being named the champion. Since this is for the Hardcore title, we are told, weapons can be brought down, and used, however, when it turns into a one on one hardcore match, no interference is allowed, anyone who disobeys will be fired as per the Redemption match rules, despite the hardcore stipulation.

In Redemption match for the SWF Tag Team titles, Cash Inc will face The Black Dragons! These two teams have had a heated rivalry, and with the promise of a fair match, we should see who the better team is!

In a Redemption match for the SWF 6 Man titles Yeti, The Don, & Tony Ramon will have to face The Breakfast Club! This should be interesting, as this past week on SWF Main Event, Tony Ramon turned against his Kings of the Street partner following a loss, thus ending their partnership! But they will have to co-exist if they want to remain 6 Man champions!

There will also be another 6 Man encounter, with elimination rules, called the "New Blood 6 Man" match! The 6 newest SWF talents, Lt. Jim Dingle, The Dead, Jules, Alabama Man, Walter, & Buffalo Billy will be put on random drawn teams of 3, with the remaining members of winning team getting a chance to prove themselves in a title match for either the Hardcore, or Television championship!

And of course, in the main event, SWF World champion, The Billion Dollar Man will defend his title vs a mystery person, who we also now know is the new owner of the SWF! Just who could it be? The rumor mill has been churning out some very interesting choices, but all speculation will be put to rest, right here tonight, mere moments from now!

Vance: I'll tell you Dean, whoever it turns out to be, it's already guaranteed to be historic! Without further ado, let's KICK IT OFF!

Redemption Match for the SWF Television title: The Mercenary vs Octane
Octane comes out to a big pop, and he is PISSED. As soon as the bell rings, he KILLS Mercenary, and within about 2 minutes, he nails him with the Empty Tank! The crowd is loving it, and he decides to do it again! Then, he does it a THIRD TIME!!! the crowd is insane for this, but Octane doesn't pin him?! Octane shakes his head no, kicks Mercenary out of the ring, points to the back, and does the belt around the waist motion! He is signaling he wants another title, perhaps, as Vance & Dean think, he wants the WORLD title! The fans seem to understand too, and pop huge, as Octane walks off! The referee has no choice to call for the bell, declaring it a forfeit. But, as Dean says "He proved his point, and made his future title aspirations clear, win or not, he got his redemption!".
*Winner, by Forfeit, and STILL SWF Television Champion* The Mercenary


We head backstage to Angelica, who is next to a bingo tumbler, she draws the teams for the New Blood 6 Man. Jules, Walter, & The Dead will face Alabama Man, Buffalo Billy, & Lt. Jim Dingle! She also says that match is NEXT!

New Blood 6 Man match: Jules, Walter, & The Dead vs Alabama Man, Buffalo Billy, & Lt. Jim Dingle
The Dead starts with AM, and Dead is whooped on pretty good, before he starts that biting stuff again, biting AM's arm, and gets DQed for it! He's gone, and it's now 2 on 3! Walter & Jules seem pissed, and I don't blame them. Dead leaves the ring, sneaks up on Miss Alabama at ringside, and bites her butt! That got a laugh from Vance & Dean, as well as the crowd. The male fans in attendance also popped for that, starting a small chant for Dead after that. Dead the runs off, as Walter steps in to replace him. AM has recovered, but Walter proves the tougher of the two in a fisticuffs brawl. Walter whips AM off the ropes, and plants him with a huge powerslam, goes for the pin, and 1-2-3, he got it! The odds are now even, and Walter tags in Jules, who is pleased with Walter's work, so the two are trying to work together. Buffalo Billy steps in to replace AM, and does his weird dancing instead of fighting, so Jules attacks, and whips the crap put of him. It isn't long when Jules hits the BMF Bomb for the 1-2-3! Dingle is the only man left for his team. As BB leaves, looking as if he actually enjoyed being beaten up, since he's a freak, Dingle, looking a bit worried, steps in. He's on his own vs two very tough men, as the announcers point out, but he makes the best of it, and uses his technical skills to put up a good fight. Jules tags Walter in, and Dingle takes him to town as well, earning his share of supporters in the crowd. These newer guys haven't really had the chance to be labeled heel or face, so this match is very telling. Dead did get a pop for biting Miss Alabama's ass, but the fans still seem to just think he and Buffalo Billy are weird. Jules is pretty badass, and that has him over pretty quick as a face, Walter is just ornery, and hasn't fleshed out his character yet, while Dingle is building a following for his zany antics, and wrestling skills. Anyways, Walter has to fight hard to be able to tag back to Jules, who after another few minutes, puts Dingle away with the BMF Bomb. Jules and Walter now have a chance at some gold!
*Winners* Jules & Walter

Post Match: Jules & Walter celebrate to Jules' theme, then shake hands, happy with how their teaming turned out, and the fans support them. As they celebrate, Dingle gets up, but instead of trying anything, Jules and Walter nod in respect for his efforts, then they shake hands, which the fans, and announcers like. The three chat it up, then Dingle, digging the funkyness of Jules' theme, Jungle Boogie by Kool & The Gang, starts to dance in his comically bad manner. Dingle gets Jules to dance with him, then Walter, who is a bit more rigid in his attempt to dance. Everyone enjoys this nice little scene, then the three leave as we cut backstage.

Backstage, we see a nervous BDM, pacing in the hallways with his Cash Inc buddies, Joe Money & Jahalaman Jaffe. Jaffe & Joe try to ease BDM's tension, but express their nervousness for their tag title match later. BDM says he is waiting for a stagehand he sent out to search the place. The stagehand soon arrives, and BDM asks if he's seen anyone around that stands out, maybe that shouldn't be there, hoping the new owner/his opponent is lurking around. The stagehand says he looked, and asked around, but nothing out of the usual. It is suggested by the stagehand that either the mystery person is right under their noses, or in hiding, ready to unveil themselves when the time comes. None of this eases BDM's tension, and we cut back to the ring.


20 Man Gauntlet, Redemption rules match for SWF Hardcore title
I must note, since it isn't a typical type of a Rumble match, I'll just say who got tossed, not keep track of elimination numbers. Entrant # 1 is Captain Fantastic! Entrant # 2 is Rory Rogers! The two enter, with no weapons, and brawl it out, with Rory's superior brawling skills giving him the edge. Fantastic starts to use his strength to fight back as # 3 enters, Randy Mann! Randy helps Fantastic, and they toss Rory, then start to fight each other, just as # 4 is set to come down, Disco Danny! Danny takes his time, and when he enters, he wisely decides to watch Randy & Fantastic fight. Randy & Fantastic fight near the ropes, trying to toss one another out, while Danny watches, then, it's time for # 5, Tex Gentry! Tex runs in, carrying his guitar, and blasts his Generation Gap enemy, Disco Danny with it! Danny is out after that, so Tex eliminates him! Tex decides to relax, but when Randy has Fantastic almost out, and he himself leaning far over the ropes, Tex sneaks up, and pushes them both out! Tex struts around for a few seconds to the boos of the crowd, then # 6 enters, Ayatollah Sheik, giving us a heel battle. Sheik comes out with his spike in hand, and he has no problem using it, clocking Tex with it right off the bat. He pounds away on Tex with the spike, bloodying him, then tosses him out! Sheik's victory doesn't last, as # 7 soon enters, Silkky Smooth! The fans pop for Silkky, since he's a face, and he is ready to beat Sheik's ass. Silkky blocks a shot from Sheik's spike, and knocks it away from him, then starts pounding him. The tow fight into a corner, then # 8 enters, Jimmy Jam! Jimmy makes an alliance with Silkky, and the two work together, and they beat on sheik, who is really hanging on to prevent getting tossed. They all fight as # 9 enters, Beef Macho! Beef, being an ally of Silkky, as members of Sex Connection, helps Silkky and Jimmy with Sheik. All three men keep trying to toss Sheik, when # 10 enters, Jack Suicide! Jack also aligns with the trio, and the four finally toss Sheik! Now, the allies Silkky & Beef decide to work over the other two, so Jack & Jimmy form their own alliance, and fight back! # 11 is then on his way, Crazy Phil! Phil enters with a steel chair, and waits it out in the corner while the other four fight. Jimmy Jam soon ends up tossed by Beef, and Phil steps in to blast Beef with the chair, and toss him to a huge pop! Jack & Silkky keep fighting it out, and Phil nails Silkky with the chair! Jack now is able to get Silkky over to the corner, and toss him out! Jack decides to align with Phil after his help, then # 12 enters, Mike Suicide! Uh oh. All three stare each other down, and they decided to form a three way alliance! To waste time, the three go out under the bottom rope, and raid under the ring for weapons. Phil grabs a garbage can with a stop sign, the can's lid, and a Singapore cane in it. Mike grabs a table, and Jack grabs a HUGE ladder! They bring it all in the ring, Mike sets the table up near the upper left part of the ring, and Jack props the ladder up against the lower right corner. Phil stands guard with the garbage can, hands Mike the cane, and Jack the chair, then all three gather towards the center of the ring, waiting for the seemingly doomed # 13, which is already a bad omen. And who is # 13? The Reverend! The fans pop huge, knowing he is about to be seriously messed up. Rev appreciated the reaction, until he sees what is waiting in the ring. He cautiously walk to the ring, knowing he is gonna get whooped, but doesn't want to get in! Then, the ref on the outside, tells him, he has to get in! The fans pop huge, Rev enters, and all 3 men swarm him, hitting him with their weapons. Rev was the one who screwed Jack out of the title, and a while back, Rev & Xavier feuded with Phil & The Janitor. As their major beat down occurs, the buzzer goes off for # 14, Xavier Hawthorne! Speak of the devil, there he is, and he is forced in as well, and gets the same treatment as Rev, to the fans delight. Phil beats the crap out of Xavier with the cane, as the can got beaten in on Rev, while the Suicides take ol' Rev for some retribution. Mike slides the table closer to the center of the ring, as Jack sets up the ladder! Phil tosses Xavier to a big pop during this, then goes over to help Mike beat on Rev, then put him on the table, while Jack climbs the ladder! Jack gets all the way up on this 20 foot ladder, then comes off with a Suicide Splash on Rev through the table! SWEET! Mike & Phil help Jack up, and he finishes his redemption by tossing Rev himself! # 15 is already on his way down, X, and he enters, by just attacking all 3 right away. Jack, who is still hurt from his ladder spot, gets dropped easy, and Mike & Phil brawl with X. Those three fight it out, while Jack recovers on the far side of the ring, then # 16 enters, kind of. We hear Enter Sandman by Metallica, and the camera goes out to the crowd, where Repo is up in stands with fans, dressed as ECW's Sandman! He's got him down to a tee, wearing those workout pants, and a t-shirt, as well as mocking Sandman's notoriously long entrances, where he'd play it up in the crowd for like hours before getting in the ring, like Repo is doing. Repo does have a Singapore cane, but instead of beer and a cigarette, he's got Dr. Pepper, and a Twizzler in his mouth! We see a split screen of the long entrance, with the music still playing, and the action in the ring, which has Phil & Mike beating away on X in the corner, while Jack tries to recuperate. Finally though, after Repo's entrance takes the whole time, and he's still milling in the crowd, now on the lowest level, it's time for # 17, Tripp. Tripp runs in, and helps his friend X, jumping Phil, who almost has X out of the ring, and X, Phil, and Tripp fall out of the ring! Repo finally makes it in the ring, and blasts Mike with his cane, then Jack, who had finally recovered enough to fight. Repo poses some more, and wails away on both men, before tossing Mike! The announcers talk up how Repo is channeling Sandman because of his hardcore style, and it seems to be working. Repo works over Jack with the cane, and beats on him, then takes him over to the ropes to try and dump the hurt man out as # 18 enters, Boppo the Clown! Boppo comes to help, but in wanting to win, Repo turns, then blasts Boppo with his nearby cane when he accidentally caught him with an errant running blow. The two men then start pushing each other, Repo kicks Boppo, picks up his cane, and with the crowd's approval he blasts him with it! Repo then tosses Boppo! With Boppo gone, Repo turns back to Jack Suicide, but Jack is there to fight, and knocks the cane away. # 19 enters now, Charles Gunn! Charles comes in, and he boots Repo right out over the top rope! Jack Suicide uses this time to crab the cane, and hit Charles! Jack fends off Charles with the cane, as the final man enters, # 20, The Janitor! Janitor is an experienced hardcore wrestler, and as Vance & Dean point out, one of the best. Janitor has held the Hardcore title 2 times, which is also pointed out. He enters with his mop, and he blasts Charles with it, then Jack uses the cane on him from behind! Jack sneaks up, and tosses Janitor! We now have our singles match!

The Final 2 Men in the Gauntlet SWF Hardcore title match: Jack Suicide vs Charles Gunn
The ref slides in from the outside, and Jack uses his cane to beat a recovering Charles, finishing with a shot to the crotch, then sick shot to the head combo! Jack, worn from taking his share of hard shots, now has Charles down, but he hits Charles a few more times to make sure he stays down, sets up the ladder, the climbs it! He crawls up, and comes off with the Suicide Splash onto Charles! He just lays there, tired, half his body on Charles for the pin, the ref counts, 1....2....3! Jack wins! He has regained his title!
*Winner, and NEW SWF Hardcore Champion* Jack Suicide

We head backstage, where we see Jim Dingle, a crew member hands him a note, like one he got a few weeks back. This one says "I hope you haven't forgotten me, I have been preparing my plans. We'll meet soon, if we haven't already!". Dingle looks creeped out, then ponders if it's just some "Hot, sexy, lady fan" out for some "Vitamin D".

Redemption Match for the SWF Tag Team titles: Cash Inc vs The Black Dragons
The Dragons are FIRED UP, and they dominate Cash Inc, knocking Joe out of the ring, after a wild 4 man brawl that the ref let go for several minutes! The Dragons then beat on Jaffe before nailing him with the Dragon Attack! Quow goes for the pin, as Shadow jumps out over the top onto Joe to prevent him from coming in! The ref counts, 1-2-3! It's over, within about 6 minutes, The Dragons have done it for the 3rd time!
*Winners, and NEW SWF Tag Team Champions* The Black Dragons


Redemption Match for the SWF 6 Man titles: Yeti/Don/Tony vs The Breakfast Club
The Don & Tony end up brawling in the aisle, and Yeti is forced to got out alone, where he is tripled teamed. The Breakfast Club beats on Yeti, he then fights them off, but when he sees his partners still fighting in the aisle, he decides it isn't worth it, and walks off to the back! The announcers don't blame him either, then say Yeti must be cursed, he was 6 Man champ with Petey & Octane before, and that team fell apart too. With Yeti gone, TBC all run out to Don & Tony, where Tony actually tosses them Don! TBC thank him, and Tony nods as if to say "Sure, no problem"! Tony then walks off, leaving Don left to fight TBC alone! Poor Don is already beaten, so TBC take him into the ring, and The Jock pins him for the 1-2-3! New champs, yet again! Vance & Dean comment on Redemption really being dished out tonight.
*Winners, and NEW SWF 6 Man Champions* The Breakfast Club


Redemption Match for the SWF United States title: Petey Pizzazz vs The Freedom Fighter
This match sees Petey put up quite the effort, but Freedom is too motivated, and too strong. He hits the Star Spangled Slam about 10 minutes in, and scores the 1-2-3! Redemption has been served once more!
*Winner, and NEW SWF United States Champion* The Freedom Fighter


SWF World title match: The Billion Dollar Man vs ???
BDM makes his way down, looking uncharacteristically worried, probably having to do with having no idea who he's facing. BDM forgoes taunting the crowd, removes his entrance gear, surrenders his belt, and stares towards the aisle, when....the lights begin to flicker! Bright, flashing white light fills the arena, and a deep, scary man's voice comes across the speakers, saying this: "The days have been filled with fear, and the nights, with chaos. The time has come for that to end.....now is ....THE RECKONING!" (loud thunder is heard, followed by the tolling of a bell). BDM stands in awe, and the crowd has gone silent, nobody has any idea what is going on. The lights cease flickering, going out completely, and the big screen lights up, with the words "Redemption is NOW" in bright red letters. A bell begins to continuously toll, as the message on the screen turns into footage of backstage, where we first see the beaten body of Jahalaman Jaffe, laying face down, then the camera continues the pan, so we see another body directly above Jaffe's, being Joe Money, then, the camera scrolls further, and we see it's whole PATH of bodies, The Mercenary, Petey Pizzazz, The Reverand, Xavier Hawthorne III, Yeti, The Don, & Tony Ramon (that's BDM's whole entourage!), all lined up, leading to the entrance. We hear boots clacking in the distance, and the camera catches a dark figure, with a long black leather trenchcoat, storming their way to the entrance. We don't get to see this figure too much, as we cut immediately back to the ring ,where it remains dark, with only the screen producing light, and the transfixed crowd, as well as BDM look on, then, the screen shuts off, leaving the arena in total darkness, and the bell stops tolling. A deep bass sound cuts through the air, like the sound used in horror movies, with the light returning, only this time, it's red. Almost as soon as the red light comes on, huge flames engulf the entrance, with bolts of what appears to be red lightning crashing in at the entry way from the sky. When the bolts of lightening stop coming in, the flames rise even higher, then just go out, along with the lights again. We begin to hear music at this point, Ozzy Osbourne's No More Tears, starting at the bridge(after the speaking part). As the music plays, the screen kicks on. It says, "The clues were there all along", then the name and address on the P.O. Box appear. The address vanishes, leaving just the name, Turner Harper Tuessest, which scrambles up, and rearranges, spelling out "The Superstar Returns"! OH MY GOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! EXTREME IS BACK?!!!!! The arena goes APESHIT, as the awesome guitar solo kicks in on No More Tears, the announcers go crazy, BDM looks like he wants to pass out, and we see a silhouette of a man on the screen, walking out of a bright light, and everything goes dark. After the awesome guitar solo concludes, the light finally snaps back on, the music stops instantly, and, behind BDM, stands....EXTREME SUPERSTAR! HOLY SHIT! IT'S HIM! HE'S IS BACK! The crowd proceeds to crap it pants (so do the announcers), giving him the LOUDEST ovation in SWF history, and when BDM sees Extreme in the ring with him, he's absolutely friggin' TERRIFIED! Extreme looks quite different, he appears in great shape too, having put on some muscle, he has continued to let hair grow out long, got a dark, five o'clock shadow thing going on, he's adorned in all black, with a long leather trenchcoat, black sunglasses, and Good lord, is he SUPER, ULTRA, GIGANTIC, MEGA, HOGAN-LEVEL, PISSED THE HELL OFF! Extreme violently rips the sunglasses off, then stands staring a hole right through BDM, before just whipping the living bejesus out of him, pillar to post, 600 ways from Sunday, and back, then sends him into the ropes, and when he comes off, Extreme nails him with an ELEVATED, JUMPING, LIGHTS OUT! Woah, that was SWEET, BDM practically went through the ring! Extreme simply kicks BDM onto his back, places a boot on him for the cover, and the ref flies into the ring for the three count! Extreme has won the title! The crowd LOSES IT when the ref counts 3.
*Winner, NEW SWF World Champion, and BACK FROM THE MOTHER FUCKIN' DEAD* Extreme Superstar!!!

Post Match: The ref hands Extreme the title, and he celebrates with it, as the fans go NUTS. Extreme steps large around the ring, super amped up, and tells us that he is back, while Vance & Dean go into seizures, so happy Extreme has returned. What an AWESOME ending to a fantastic show.

END OF SHOW

SWF Main Event 7/24/04

It should be noted that Angelica isn't at the commentary booth, just Vance, who returned last week, & Dean. Angelica must have returned to interviewing.

Vance: Welcome to SWF Main Event! We are 6 days from what will be a HISTORIC night for the SWF, SWF Redemption, LIVE on PPV!

Dean: But, before we get there, tonight, we will see some major matches, and serious developments. Last week, The Billion Dollar Man learned, from none other than my colleague, and SWF Chairman, the returning Vance McMillian, that he was no longer in control of the SWF. We also learned that the SWF now had a NEW owner, one who has decided to keep his identity secret, AND, heard the new owner's plans for the next PPV, SWF Redemption. The new owner set up what is to be fair, impartial rematches from BDM's tainted Slamboree PPV, where all the champions unjustly robbed of their titles get the chance to win them back. On top of all that, BDM was told he'd be facing a mystery man in the main event for his SWF World title! After hearing this, a furious BDM hired Lt. Jim Dingle to investigate, concocting some sort of plan to find out who the new owner is, and the identity of his mystery opponent. Dingle said he'd get the info to BDM within a few days, just what did he turn up, and could we learn about it tonight? Also, we have some big matches lined up:

The bizarre new talent, known as The Dead, will take on the man he attacked last week, Jimmy Jam in his debut match!

The mystery man who debuted to save Silkky Smooth from a 2 on 1 attack at the hands of Kings of the Street will be in action, teaming with Silkky to face Kings of the Street!

New talents Walter, Alabama Man, & Jim Dingle will also be in 6 Man action, taking on The Good Ol' Boys!

And, in the main event, BDM will have a match in preparation for his mystery opponent at Redemption, by taking on a randomly drawn opponent in a non-title match, in an attempt to prove he can beat anyone! Will his point be proven, or could this blow up in his face? Time will tell!

Vance: Alright folks, let's KICK IT OFF!


The Dead vs Jimmy Jam
The Dead uses Down With the Sickness by Disturbed as his theme. The announcers also note he is about 6'0, and 229 lbs. Jimmy comes on strong, but Dead makes his comeback with some unorthodox looking brawling. He mauls his opponents like a psycho, and acts like a zombie, which is his gimmick. Dead then starts to bite Jimmy's head, and the ref warns him, but he pushes him away, so he gets DQed.
*Winner, by DQ* Jimmy Jam

Post Match: Jimmy pushes The Dead off, and gives him a "What the hell is wrong with you?" look, and decides to just leave. The Dead continues to act weird, stomping around the ring, and chases the ref out. He continues to run around, when fellow newcomer/weirdo Buffalo Billy runs out, in tight white jeans, red lipstick, and his red silk floral robe. He seems to like this messed up dude known as The Dead, and dances around a bit, then gets Dead to chase him?! Billy seems to be having fun, as everyone else is weirded out by this. Billy turns the chase around, and runs Dead from ringside, to the back, where Angelica Summers is waiting with a mic, to possibly figure this out. Dead runs right by her, but she stops Billy, who is more than happy to talk with her, in his deep, creepy voice:

Angelica(confused by all this): Can you explain why you were chasing that freak, The Dead around? Do you two have some sort of partnership or history?

Buffalo Billy(fluffing his hair, preening for the camera): Oh no child. I just LOVE playing games. In fact, (talking to the camera) my pretties, the games haven't even begun. You wait and see, we'll have some fun yet, it's going to be a blast. (makes a kissy face at the camera, and struts off)

Angelica(creeped out): You heard him....whatever that means. (shakes her head as if to snap out of her creeped out daze) Now, I actually have some more to share with you before sending it back to the ring. Last week, we saw a mystery man come to the aid of Silkky Smooth, helping him ward off an attack by Kings of the Street. Tonight, those 4 men will fight in a tag match, scheduled next. I have Silkky, and his partner here with me now to fill us in on what's going on. Come on over guys.

Silkky, and the unnamed man walk into view, and Silkky starts to speak:

Silkky(points to the man): This here is my old friend Jules. We go way back, and now he's here in the SWF to watch my back, and kick some ass!

Jules(angry): Yeah, that's right! Me and Silkky used to go around bustin' up on all kind of fool's heads out on the Vegas strip, and in the SWF, it ain't gonna be no different! Kings of the Street, you think your bad? Well, tonight, you find out what REAL Kings of the Street are about!

The two walk off, headed to the ring, as Angelica tosses it back to the ring.

Silkky Smooth & Jules vs Kings of the Street
Jules, it should be said, who is a take on the character by the same name in Pulp Fiction, wrestles in his signature suit. Jules shows some real skill, just kicking Don's ass with ease, while Tony begs for the tag, but Don can't get there. The announcers says they got a bit of info on Jules now, he is about 6'2, 236lbs. Jules also is said to have been trained along with Silkky to wrestle, and his finisher of choice is a sitting version of the Tiger Bomb, like Ahmed Johnson used, calling it the Pearl River Plunge. Jules' version is said to be called the BMF Bomb. In case you are unaware, BMF means "Bad Mother F*cker", and in Pulp Fiction, that is etched on Jules' wallet, not to mention accurately describes the character. Not long after they reveal this new info, we get to see the BMF Bomb, as Jules hits the move on Don! Silkky runs interference, 1-2-3, Don is pinned, and he never even got to tag out! What an impressive debut for Jules, his gimmick, and teaming with Silkky seem to be over with the fans already.
*Winners* Silkky Smooth & Jules

Post Match: Jungle Boogie by Kool & The Gang plays, which was featured in Pulp Fiction, and appears to be Jules' theme. Silkky & Jules walk off, celebrating, then the music cuts off as Tony is left, pissed off in the ring, with the downed Don. Tony seems really furious, and I cant blame him, Don always loses, and 2 weeks ago, Tony actually left Don in the ring, probably fed up at Don's incompetence. Tony waits for Don to get up, and wastes no time kicking him, then blasting him with The Edge! The fans pop at this, Tony does the Razor Ramon poses, and screams at Don about how he's done with him, he's gonna be on his own now! Kings of the Street is finished! But they are still 2 parts of the SWF 6 Man tag champs with Yeti! They have to team to defend the titles in 6 days at Redemption! How is that gonna work? The announcers speculate on this as well, while Tony leaves to his theme, and the cheers of the crowd.

We head backstage, where we see Jim Dingle running to the Cash Inc dressing room, holding a manilla envelope. He runs in, all 3 members of Cash Inc are there, and BDM is mad. BDM asks where Dingle was, as he never delivered the info he requested to him. Dingle says he got caught, sneaking back out of SWF HQ, apparently trying to get the info, which must have been BDM's master plan. Dingle says they questioned him, and he ended up getting arrested when they found documents on him, and he just got out of jail this morning. He says he had to smooth things over with the cops, proving to them he was a cop too, and get them to buy his made up story for being at SWF HQ. He eventually did get it worked out, and got to keep the info, which he has in his hand. He also comments jail wasn't so bad actually, he made some friends, and they sang songs! Back to business, Dingle shows the front of the envelope, saying it is from the P.O. Box set up to correspond with the mystery new owner, apparently owned by the new owner themself. It has an alias written on it, which is commented by all four men to sound "made up", the name is Turner Harper Tuessest, we can easily see it written in big bold black letters, and Dingle holds it out so everyone can see. The envelope also says it is located in Wilkes Land Antarctica, further clueing everyone in on it being fake. Dingle called the post office, and they say that is the same info they have, the made up name and location are what the P.O. Box is registered under, and it was paid for in cash, so no paper trail. Dingle then takes out some papers from the envelope, one from the official notice of new ownership over the SWF, and the contract for BDM's world title match at Redemption. He points out that they aren't signed by names, but red wax seals, depicting a generic sunset scene or something, but both are in fact the same, showing that the new owner of the SWF is the same person set to face BDM! Everyone is stunned by this, and Dingle closes by saying he doesn't know if it has anything to do with the "SOON" promos though. BDM, while pretty shocked, comments that he is impressed Dingle could competently (besides getting arrested) do some investigative work. Dingle says he gets the job done, no matter what, and attributes it to watching his tapes of the old show Silk Stalkings. Everyone gives him a weird look, the crowd, and announcers laugh, and an embarrassed Dingle says "What? That show was fantastic!", before rushing off, saying his match is next. For those not in the know, Silk Stalkings was like a cheap erotic thriller tv series, made for network televison ,and aired on the USA Network, most famously after WWF's Monday Night Raw in the mid 90's. The reason this is funny because the show was so lame since it tried to be sexy and titillating, but in reality, it came off like some kind of sleazy porn movie (just listen to the theme music some time, it's so hilariously cheesy), but since it was on cable tv, it didn't even have the porn aspect. The implication is Dingle is a pathetic because that he loves watching horrid faux-porn shows, and the show is rather obscure, it is just good for a "WTF?" laugh, since he actually watches it. High concept humor here people.


Walter, Alabama Man, & Jim Dingle vs The Good Ol' Boys
Walter starts with Rory, and Dingle arrives late, and takes his place on the apron as the fight in the ring goes on, and everyone else is already in their places. Walter does well, but tags to Alabama Man as a tired Rory tags Tex. Miss Alabama is at ringside, and she jumps on the apron to distract Tex, and he goes over to her, only for Alabama Man to attack. After a bit of being walloped, Tex slides away to tag Charles, who takes down Alabama Man. Charles can't seem to put Alabama Man away, and AM (what we'll call Alabama Man for short now) tags in Dingle, who fans seem to like. Dingle is tentative about locking up with the larger Charles, so Charles goes to take the fight to him, and Dingle runs! Dingle then stops, and catches Charles with a boot, and starts his offense! Dingle uses more technical moves, like a gutwrench suplex, and a Russian legsweep to control, showing off his mat skills. Eventually, Charles tries to turn the tables, but Miss Alabama jumps on the apron, so he goes over to her, and Dingle spins him around while she teases him, and nails the Dingle Drop, his finisher, a lifting double arm DDT. 1-2-3, it's over!
*Winners* Walter, Alabama Man, & Jim Dingle

We head back up to Vance & Dean, where Vance tells us, and the live crowd, that the last match wasn't for no reason, but a showcase of some of the newer stars. He comments the new owner sent a letter stating that if the new guys won, like they just did, to go ahead and sign the match he had in mind for Redemption. The match is a "New Blood 6 Man Tag", where the 6 newest talents, Lt. Jim Dingle, Walter, Alabama Man, Buffalo Billy, Jules, & The Dead will compete in a 6 man tag, with elimination rules. The teams will be randomly chosen prior to the match, and the winner, or winners will have an even greater chance to prove themselves, in a title match of their choosing at a later date, but only for the Hardcore or Television titles, as they must prove worthy later to get any sort of U.S. or "World" title shot. The two announcers then have a short conversation about the revelation the new owner, and BDM's opponent are the same person. They also discuss the odd alias, the first name being "Turner",as in Ted Turner, former owner of WCW perhaps?! They even allude to the Turner clue, saying "A guy who used to run a wrestling company has that name" drawing an interested response from the crowd. They don't see any clues in the middle name, "Harper", or the odd last name "Tuessest". The initials, THT don't seem to mean anything either, so they think, maybe, like the location of Antarctica listed as the person's location, it was just all made up to throw them off. They close by saying we are only 6 days away from the answer, then toss it to the ring for the main event.

BDM walks to the ring amidst his typical big boos, holding a mic, and there is a bingo tumbler at ringside, filled with envelopes, apparently for the drawing of his opponent. He stops at the tumbler, and begins to speak:

BDM: Alright, to prove to EVERYONE here tonight, and out there watching that I am NOT afraid of anyone, and am ready to fight anyone, anytime, and win (boos), I shall now pick my opponent, for this non-title match at random from this bingo tumbler. I assure you, this is legit, and the name of every SWF wrestler, except those who have already had a match tonight is in here. And, whoever it is I pick, I can assure you, they will be defeated, fair and square! (big boos)

BDM spins the tumbler a bit, then reaches in to draw a name, he picks an envelope, and opens it. He looks at the name, smirks, then announces his opponent: Disco Danny! BDM enters the ring, the bell is rung, and Danny makes his way down for the match.

Main Event: Non Title Match- The Billion Dollar Man vs Disco Danny
Danny fires away on BDM right away, to a big pop, and manages to overwhelm BDM, but BDM soon punches back, and suplexes him to take control. BDM starts to vicious stomp his opponent, and taunt the fans to major boos. He starts really laying a beating on Danny, and slaps him around, trying to embarrass him, as well as prove his point. The fans are furious, and BDM sneaks in a low blow to further piss them off. Finally, when he's tired of decimating poor Danny, who is a very capable wrestler, which the announcers make not of, BDM hits the Billion Dollar Bomb TWICE, then pins him. Geez, he was pissed, and totally did prove his point, much to the fans dismay.
*Winner* The Billion Dollar Man

Post Match: BDM celebrates to his music, as well as massive heel heat from the fans. He smiles, poses with his SWF World title, and yells out to the fans about how he really is the best, and can beat anyone, anytime, also that he's ready for whoever at Redemption. His music is then cut off, the lights dim, and the big screen clicks onto one of those "SOON" videos! The fans pop, as a deep bass line cuts through the air, and the following appears on the screen, in the now familiar blood red letters:

"I said it would be soon....
It is now (a large 6 appears on the screen) days until MY Redemption.
See you there."

The announcers, and BDM freak out, as the fans pop huge, sensing big things, as do I. We then fade out, with the announcers reminding us to tune into Redemption, which should be EPIC!

END OF SHOW

SWF Main Event 7/17/04

As promised, we open the show with The Billion Dollar Man, forgoing the intro, as he is here to reveal his lineup for the next SWF PPV, the second under his command:

BDM(excited): Hello everyone, and welcome to this very special SWF Main Event! (big boos) As I promised last week, I'd open the show up with the announcement of the PPV extravaganza I have planned for the 30th of this month. But, before I do that, I have to put to rest the out of control rumors about a new owner, thus ending my regime of fairness, and giving the fans what they want (MEGA boos). The reports of Vance McMillian, who unfortunately I CAN'T fire from his duties as SWF chairman, finalizing a deal that coronates a new owner of this company, are 100% FALSE. Now, moving on, July 30th as mentioned before, will be the date of my second PPV event, and it promises to be even better than Slamboree! I call this event......

BDM is cut off by the sound of The SWF Main Event theme, and Dean & Angelica in the announce booth speak up to voice their confusion. BDM isn't very happy either, then, VANCE MCMILLIAN WALKS OUT! Vance is back! Dean & Angelica are ecstatic, the fans pop huge, and BDM looks furious in the ring. Vance walks to the ring with a purpose, holding some sort of document in his hand! He enters the ring, the music cuts off, and he pulls out a mic from his jacket pocket:

Vance(somewhat angry): Paul, Billion Dollar Man id you prefer, your days of tyranny are over! (HUGE pop) As of now, you are OUT of power! (GIANT pop)


BDM(angry, and shocked): WHAT?! That can't be! I was just about to announce my next PPV!


Vance(smiles, and holds up the document in his hand): Well, maybe you should have listened to the rumors, because this document signifies a new owner has indeed been named, I finalized the deal Wednesday afternoon! (BIG pop) And, (sarcastically) I'm SO sorry to say that their first act as new owner was to correct the loophole you exploited to take control! (another mega pop) Their second act was to rehire those poor crew members you fired, and, reinstate me as an announcer! (yet another massive pop)


BDM(beside himself): That's it! I want to know just who this person is!


Vance(shrugs): To be honest, I don't know. You see, all we got was an official, notarized document, signing the rights of the SWF over to a mysterious buyer, who is only recognized by an affixed wax seal. I had to send it to the company lawyers, they examined it, and determined it is all legit, as the owner can remain secret if they so desire. Once that happened, I signed off to make it official, then sent the paperwork to the P.O. Box I was given, that apparently belongs to the new owner. (sifts through the papers, then holds one up) This is what that individual sent back, declaring the two orders I mentioned, and also, the REAL lineup for the next PPV, as decreed by the boss, whoever that might be! (big pop) The event will still be held here in the SWF Arena, on July 30th as you had planned, and is called SWF Redemption. On that card, we will see, what the owner wrote as "Redemption matches", said to be FAIR, impartial rematches of those you set up at Slamboree, with the promise of no interference, or changing of the rules. The letter states that ANY interference, or foul play by the champions, not only results in their title being stripped, but immediate release from their contract! (big pop) If any of the challengers break the rules, they too will be fired! Now, here is the lineup as of now:

In one of the "Redemption Matches", The SWF 6 Man champs, King of the Streets & Yeti will face The Breakfast Club for the titles. It will be a traditional, one fall 6 Man tag contest.

The Hardcore title has been reinstated, effective as of now, and will be defended by the last man to hold the title, The Reverend, in a 20 Man, Hardcore Gauntlet Match! (big pop) His partner, Xavier Hawthorne will also be in the match, along with The Janitor, Crazy Phil, The Suicide Brothers, Boppo The Clown, Tripp, Repo, X, Disco Danny, Jimmy Jam, Randy Mann, Beef Macho, Silkky Smooth, Ayatollah Sheik, Captain Fantastic, Tex Gentry, Rory Rogers, & Charles Gunn! In this match, two men start, and every 90 seconds, the next man enters, and so on until only two men are left. Those two men will then battle it out in a singles contest to crown the winner, and SWF Hardcore champion.


The Television champ, The Mercenary, will have to face the man he unfairly defeated to win the title, Octane, with the TV title on the line!

The Black Dragons will also get their chance at Redemption, when they face SWF Tag Team champions, Jahalaman Jaffe & Joe Money, your Cash Inc buddies, BDM. This time, it will be fair and square!

The United States champ, Petey Pizzazz will have to see if he can retain his title versus the man he screwed over, The Freedom Fighter, without the aid of JuJu!


And, don't think you won't be defending the SWF World title BDM. But you won your match fair and square, so there isn't a need for a Redemption Match. You will be facing a totally new opponent, one you quite possibly haven't ever faced. I can't say for sure, since the identity of your opponent is unknown. You'd better prepare for anything, because who knows who you might face, perhaps an enemy, or a new star, maybe a famous face in the industry, just signed to the SWF, looking to make an impact. Now that's all taken care of, what do you say we get this show going? (crowd pops huge) Alright then, let's (fans say it with him) KICK IT OFF!


We head up to Angelica & Dean, as Vance makes his way up to them, and BDM walks to the back, still stunned at what took place. Vance makes it to the announcer's position, and takes a seat, refusing to let Angelica leave, so we have a three person team! Dean then announces the 4 matches for tonight:

Buffalo Billy debuts vs Jimmy Jam

Silkky Smooth faces Tony Ramon

The Breakfast Club's Burnout/Nerd/Jock face The Good Ol' Boys

Main Event: The Freedom Fighter, The Black Dragons, & Octane vs JuJu, Petey Pizzazz, & Cash Inc


Vance reiterates his famous saying, and we start the show


Buffalo Billy vs Jimmy Jam
Billy enters to Goodbye Horses by Q Lazzarus, and is wearing some old, light brown pants, and a flowery, woman's silk robe. He dances down the aisle, ala Buffalo Bill from Silence of the Lambs, which the character was obviously lifted from. The crowd, and the announcers really don't know what to make of Billy, so they back Jimmy 100%, and boo him. It should be noted, that Billy is quite a bit taller than Jimmy, who stands about 6'1, but is real wiry for his size. Billy shows some good wrestling skills, while Vance tells us he is 6'5, and weighs about 230 lbs. Jimmy makes a big comeback, but Billy ends that by catching him with a fall away slam as he tried a top rope move. Billy then gets Jimmy into position for a gut wrench suplex it seems, then dances a bit, before lifting Jimmy, and instead of doing the gut wrench, swings, and drops him in front of him for the powerbomb variant known as a Doctor Bomb, which Dean says Billy calls the Buffalo Bomb. He slithers up onto Jimmy, with Jimmy's legs under Billy, so he has him rolled up in a disturbing looking pin, as Billy continues to dance a bit in the cover, 1-2-3, it's over. That Buffalo Billy is CREEPY.
*Winner* Buffalo Billy

Post Match: Billy dances to his theme, and puts his robe on again, then starts smearing the lipstick he had in the pocket, all over his lips. He leaves to the sound of silence from the weirded out crowd, as Jimmy is just trying to get up. As he does, the freak from last week, The Dead runs out, and knocks him to the ground! He starts pounding on Jimmy, and then bites his arm! Officials swarm the ring, and finally are able to pull the man off. First the bizarre Buffalo Billy beats poor Jimmy up, then this other oddball, The Dead bites him. Jimmy is having a bad day.


We head backstage, where an irate BDM is consulting with Lt. Dingle. BDM says he is commissioning his services to investigate this new ownership. BDM wants Dingle to find out who the new owner is, and the identity of his mystery opponent for Redemption. He also asks Dingle to see what those "SOON" promos have to do with either the new owner or the mystery opponent, if they are related at all. Dingle says he is on the case, and BDM whispers a plan to Dingle on how to obtain the info he wants. Dingle says he could have the info to him in a few days.


Silkky Smooth vs Tony Ramon
Silkky starts the match dominating, but Tony makes the comeback, only to be derailed by the Silkky Slam! The Don then runs out to break up the pin, and he starts beating on Silkky! The ref calls for the bell as Tony & Don beat down Silkky.
*Winner, by DQ* Silkky Smooth

Post Match: As the Kings of the Street whoop on poor Silkky, some African American dude in a black suit, an afro, and sunglasses rushes down the aisle, and comes in swingin', fighting off KOTS! Don & Tony are sent running to the hills, as this unknown person helps up Silkky. A dazed Silkky thanks the guy, and they seem to know each other, seeming happy to see each other. The two walk off to the back as Silkky's music plays.


The Breakfast Club vs The Good Ol' Boys
The match is a fast paced encounter, with TBC really turning up the intensity, which the announcers say is fueled by their determination to recapture the 6 Man titles. They also say that GOBS could make their case at a chance to reclaim the gold. TBC is too much to handle tonight though, as Burnout drills Charles with the Death Valley Driver, and picks up the pin.
*Winners* The Breakfast Club


Main Event: The Freedom Fighter, The Black Dragons, & Octane vs JuJu, Petey Pizzazz, & Cash Inc
Octane starts vs JuJu, and damn near kills him, when Petey tags himself in to save him, but tags back out to Jaffe! Considering the history between Petey & Octane, I don't blame him! Jaffe doesn't appear to be thrilled, buts gives it a go, gets whooped, then Octane tags Shadow! Shadow comes in, and lays down some retribution, which the announcers remind us we'll see more of come Redemption. Jaffe scurries away to tag in Joe, who has better luck, after taking some hard shots, he uses a hard boot to the gut to take control. Shadow gets really worn down, but when Joe goes tries to hit The Payoff, he slips behind, and makes the desperate tag to Quow, who charges with an all out assault of martial arts kicks. Joe manages to hit a discreet low blow, then tag to JuJu, who runs in and instantly powerbombs Quow, then goes for the pin, but he got his foot on the rope! JuJu lifts Quow again, looking to end it with the JuJu Driver, but the pugnacious Quow wriggles free, and makes the dramatic leap to tag Freedom! He was nearly gone, but he made the tag! Freedom enters, with the fans, as well as himself all riled up, and he beats the crap out of JuJu, the man responsible for costing him the U.S. title at Slamboree. The end appears to be near, and Petey sees it, so he charges in the ring, only to be met by an Octane big boot! Cash Inc then enter the fray, as the Dragons cut them off! The ref tries to clear them from the ring as Freedom continues to destroy JuJu, so Octane & the Dragons throw their foes onto the floor, and take the fight out there! Freedom hits the Star Spangled Slam not long after, and 1-2-3, it's over!
*Winners* The Freedom Fighter, The Black Dragons, & Octane

Post Match: The winners leave as their enemies are laid out, JuJu in the ring, and the other three on the floor. The announcers talk up how Freedom pinning JuJu is a taste of Redemption (the upcoming event, or just in general), and how things have changed, with BDM out of power, and the resistance to his crew out for revenge. They ponder just what surprises will be in store next week, possibly more on the new owner.

Before the closing graphic, we get a "SOON" promo. This one says "How soon from now? Sooner than you think. Prepare yourselves, it is coming, THEY are coming". Interesting. I can't wait to see about this "THEY" being spoken of. Last week, it actually hinted at a balance of power shifting, and tonight, BDM was stripped of his power, could this person be behind it all? Could they, in fact be, the new owner? Stay tuned, everything is really heating up.

END OF SHOW

SWF Main Event 7/10/04

We open the show with The Billion Dollar Man making his way to the ring. He looks quite happy, and is set to address the crowd:

BDM: Hello everyone! (BIG boos) I hope you all had a fun holiday, I know I did. But, back to business, welcome to SWF Main Event. Tonight will be a big, important show, as it is a special "Team Matches Only" night, with the reigning SWF champs facing top competition in team matches, as not to change the title picture for a very important reason. That is reason is because I have already made plans for the next SWF PPV, so I want the champs to wrestle tonight, but not jeopardize any title changes that will ruin the big matches I have planned. I am not fully done with the card, but I WILL have it all worked out next week, so I'll announce the lineup right here next week, at the very top of the broadcast. But now, onto tonight, here are the matches you will see.

BDM announces the following:

"Non-champions attraction" Tag match: Octane & Freedom Fighter vs Rory Rogers & Charles Gunn (has anyone else noticed how Octane is kept out of the mix, despite being undefeated cleanly, and way over with the fans. It's as if BDM is threatened by him perhaps?)

Elimination 6 Man Tag: Faith & Devotion, Ayatollah Sheik vs Black Dragons & Randy Mann

8 Man Tag Match: Yeti, Tex Gentry, & Kings of the Street vs Captain Fantastic & The Breakfast Club (guys only of course)

Main Event: Elimination 10 Man Tag: Cash Inc, The Mercenary, & Petey Pizzazz vs The Suicide Brothers, Crazy Phil, The Janitor & Silkky Smooth

BDM then wraps things up, and announces the start of the first match as he leaves the ring. By the way, Angelica & Dean are announcing still.

"Non-champions attraction" Tag match: Octane & The Freedom Fighter vs Rory Rogers & Charles Gunn
Octane & Charles start, and Octane dominates, then goes to finish off Charles with the Empty Tank, but he slips away to tag out. Rory cautiously comes in, but he too is destroyed. Octane gets him up, plants him with the Empty Tank, then tags out to Freedom instead of going for the pin! Freedom scrapes Rory off the mat, and hits the Star Spangled Slam! 1-2-3, it's over! Dean & Angelica mention how Octane & Freedom sent a message tonight, clearly showing BDM that they deserve rematches for the titles they were screwed out of (they didn't say that exactly, but implied it).
*Winners* Octane & The Freedom Fighter

Elimination 6 Man Tag: Faith & Devotion, Ayatollah Sheik vs Black Dragons & Randy Mann
Sheik starts off with Randy, and Randy really brings it. But after a bit of punishment, Sheik pulls out his dreaded spike, and discreetly bops Randy with it! He goes for the pin 1-2-3! Randy is eliminated! Randy, still groggy, but pissed, decides to not take the unfair loss gracefully, and runs back to the ring as an official helped him to the back! He tackles Sheik, sending him down, climbs the top rope, and nails him with the Body Shot! The fans love this, and officials have to drag Randy out, but the damage is done. Quow Ling rushes in, covers the downed Sheik, 1-2-3! Sheik is gone too! Reverend rushes right in after the pin to roll up Quow, 1-2-NO! Quow kicked out! The match slows down a bit, as Reverend puts the pressure on Quow, until Quow makes the comeback, then wisely tags instead of risking it any further. Shadow comes in, and takes down Reverend, but he manages to tag out. Xavier comes in, and takes control briefly, but then, Shadow unleashes some martial arts kicks on him, dropping him to his knees! That puts him in position for the Flying Wizard, so Shadow steps back, runs it, and SMACK! Lands the kick right up side his head! He covers, 1-2-3, Xavier is gone! Shadow tags to Quow, and now Rev is forced to enter, having nobody left to help! Rev gives it a go, but Quow turns it up, and ends up catching him with the Death Kick out of nowhere! Quow pins him, 1-2-3, it's all over! Dean & Angelica make not of how all the people who lost to BDM's allies are angry, and seem determined to regain the gold they lost.
*Winners* The Black Dragons & Randy Mann


We head backstage, where we see all 3 members of Cash Inc, and they seem upset at how the opposition is really on their game tonight. Then, talk turns to those odd "SOON" promos that have been airing after every show. Jahalaman Jaffe suggests it might have to do with that new "creepy guy" Buffalo Billy, who's promos never give any info on him. BDM puts that to rest, saying he thought that, but he looked into it, and reveals Buffalo Billy will debut next week, and has nothing to do with those promos. Joe Money looks concerned, then speaks up, saying that rumors are flying about the SWF being sold, the sale had been finalized, and that the promos are being made by none other than the new owner. BDM looks less than sure, but states those are just rumors. Jaffe says Vance McMillian, the chairman of the company, was at the SWF offices, reportedly working on the paperwork for the new ownership. BDM asks the source, and Jaffe says he saw him there before the show when he went to see if BDM wanted to go to lunch. BDM says he was out at the time, and demands to know all he knows on this. Jaffe says he talked with the front desk lady, and she told him that he had a right to be there, despite losing his announcer job, since he's chairman, a position BDM's booking powers can't fire him from, since he only has the ability to run the tv programming. Jaffe says the woman informed him that Vance was busy with a very important deal, and that was all she knows. BDM is furious at first, and then he smiles, saying if he had any real power, he'd have already returned to oust him from his booking position. Joe interjects, using his business knowledge to explain that logic is flawed. He says Extreme Superstar is gone, but as of the current time (to their knowledge), he still owns the company, so all the same rules apply, including the gaffe that allowed BDM to take power, unless he changes anything, which he hasn't due to basically walking away, since the owner is the sole person who can fix such a problem. BUT, if the rumors are true, and the company is being sold, the new owner, obviously wanting to be fully in charge, can do whatever he wants, including correcting the SWF rule book error, ousting BDM from power! BDM looks upset by this, then changes to subject, saying they need to prepare for their match later on.


We then cut to Lt. Dingle, who is backstage, visiting people, when a staff member hands him a note, said to have been delivered earlier. It's written in scribbled red, blood looking lettering. He read it, and it says "Hello policeman, we are gonna have some fun. Can't wait for the games to begin". Dingle looks worried, then comments by saying "I hope this isn't that bastard who keeps stealing my jock straps".


8 Man Tag Match: Yeti, Tex Gentry, & Kings of the Street vs Captain Fantastic & The Breakfast Club
Yeti starts with Fantastic, and Fantastic takes the fight right to him. This causes Yeti to tag Tex, who uses his speed to turn the tide, and Fantastic tags in The Burnout. The Burnout does much better with Tex, since he's more his size, but after a bit, he decides to tag The Nerd, to really match speed with Tex. Tex doesn't want to really get into it, so after taking some good offense, he tags in big Tony Ramon! Tony slaughters Nerd, forcing him to tag The Jock, who's power evens the score. As this goes on, Breakfast Club enemy, The Principal runs down to try and distract the team, but The Rich Girl & The Freak, who are at ringside as managers, jump him, and send him heading for the hills! Those kittens have claws! Back in the ring, Jock takes it to Tony, forcing him to tag the only fresh man left, The Don. In keeping with his rep of losing pretty much every single match, Don gets BLASTED with a jumping DDT, and Jock pins him, 1-2-3, it's over!
*Winners* Captain Fantastic & The Breakfast Club

Post Match: The winners celebrate on their way to the back, then Yeti & Tex leave, upset after the loss (in Yeti's case, I'd assume, the mask covers up all his emotions), and Tony looks upset too, but hesitates to leave his partner, The Don, who is still out of it on the canvas. Tony looks at his partner, then walks off angry! There is dissension between Kings of the Street! As The Don is left laying there, and an official tries to help him up, a weird man with long stringy light brown (?) hair that seems to be covered in white powder, dressed in tattered clothes, and made up like he was monster in the Thriller video runs to the ring! The man shoves the ref away, and he BITES The Don's arm! The Don rolls around in pain, and more officials storm to the ring, and drag the bizarre man off! What in the world was that!

We head up to Dean & Angelica, who inform us, and the crowd that the man we've just seen is the newest addition to the SWF roster, The Dead. Then, they begrudgedly hype next week's show, obviously under the the influence of BDM, as they pimp how great it will be, since BDM is announcing the plans for the next SWF PPV. They also talk up the debut of Buffalo Billy, and maybe further clues into the mysterious "SOON" promos, also possibly more info on the odd letter Dingle got earlier in the show. Then, they pimp the main event, which is next, doing so apparently by reading cue cards BDM is forcing them to read.


Main Event: Elimination 10 Man Tag: Cash Inc, The Mercenary, & Petey Pizzazz vs The Suicide Brothers, Crazy Phil, The Janitor & Silkky Smooth
BDM & Jack Suicide start, and BDM is overwhelmed at first by the high flying style of Jack, but once he catches him after a failed cross body, and taking him down with a powerslam, he has things well in hand. BDM decides to tag Mercenary, who really clobbers Jack, then hits the Mercy Kill! 1-2-3, Jack is eliminated! Mike runs in to take his place, and Merc destroys him, before tagging to Jahalaman Jaffe. Jaffe beats on Mike a bit more, but he slips away to tag in Silkky! Silkky really pours it on, causing Jaffe to have to tag Joe Money in, which doesn't really help much. Joe takes a good whoopin', then is planted with the Silkky Slam! 1-2-3, Joe is gone! Petey Pizzazz sneaks in, and when Silkky turns to see him, WHAM! Piece of Pizzazz! 1-2-3, Silkky is gone now too, it's 4 on 3! Petey, too busy gloating, fails to see Janitor charge in to replace Silkky! He takes down Petey with a running tackle, and fires away on him to the fans delight! Janitor really whomps on Petey, but Petey somehow manages to escape to the corner to tag in BDM. BDM comes in, only to be beat on by a riled Janitor. The Janitor has things well in hand, and he sets up BDM for the Clean Sweep! The fans are really going nuts for this, but BDM ends up slipping behind Janitor for the Billion Dollar Dream! BDM has Janitor locked in the hold, but Crazy Phil runs in, and attacks BDM from behind, causing him to release the hold! The ref tries to maintain control, as The Mercenary, Petey, & Jaffe enter to try and attack Phil, then Mike enters to fight them off, it's all broken loose now! As the ref fights to get everyone out of the ring, BDM boots Janitor, and hits the Billion Dollar Bomb! When everyone is out of the ring, BDM is there with Janitor in the pin, 1-2-3, Janitor is gone! It's 4 on 2! Mike runs in to replace Janitor as BDM tags to Jaffe. Mike is on fire, and after a bit of traded punches, he hits the Suicidal Twist out of nowhere to a huge pop! 1-2-3, Jaffe is gone! The Mercenary comes in next, and he's pissed! He storms after Mike, but he ducks, and Merc runs right into the far ropes, where Phil clocks him with a haymaker! Mike rolls him up, 1-2-3, Merc is now eliminated! Mike turns around, and Petey is there to meet him with the Piece of Pizzazz! 1-2-3, Mike is gone to mega boos! It's 2 on 1 now, with only Crazy Phil left! Phil enters the ring, as the fans chant his name, giving him the surge of adrenaline he needs, allowing him to spear Petey! Phil starts clobbering Petey as the fans go wild, then drills him with a DDT! He goes for the pin, 1......2......NO! Petey just barely kicked out! Petey struggles to his feet, and Phil meets him with a boot, then hooks him in for the Crazy Crusher! He hit it! He goes for the pin, 1........2........3! He got him! The fans are loving it, and it's now down to Phil and the SWF World champ, BDM. BDM is rocked by some major shots as he enters, with the fans, and Dean & Angelica getting excited too, hoping to see Phil finally knock BDM off his high horse for being a jerk in general, and the constant abuse of Phil himself. BDM makes him comeback, then goes for the Billion Dollar Dream, but Phil fights it! He grabs his arms, and gets him into position for the Crazy Crusher! But no! BDM fights him away, and spins him around, then sets him up for the Billion Dollar Bomb! He got it! 1.............2.....................3. BDM won! The fans boos loudly, as BDM smiles, and says "Don't cross the boss!".
*Winners* Cash Inc, The Mercenary, & Petey Pizzazz

Post Match: The other members of the winning team return to celebrate, as fans boo, and hurl garbage at them. BDM's music is cut off, when the big screen turns on, and we see one of those "SOON" promos! This one says: "The balance of power has shifted. Prepare for change, SOON." The fans, BDM & his buddies, Dean & Angelica are all dumfounded, and awed, as we go off the air.


END OF SHOW

Jibber Jabber
Yeah, so Raw is gonna be on in 45 minutes, and I'm bored until then, hence me doing an entry. I had a cool idea, and I think I could squeeze an article out of it. I intend to, hopefully sometime within the next month or so, have what I like to call Rob's Sitcom-A-Thon, where I will watch mass amounts of a specific show I either have on DVD, or download on the PC. At the moment, I am building a MASS amount of a specific show, so I think I'll hold off on watching them, then do a marathon viewing. After it's over, I'll do an article, reviewing the episodes I watched. I haven't set a date yet, I want to wait until I have a free day, so I can seriously veg out and watch it all without interruption. There really isn't anything better to me than a non-stop marathon of some show I love. If I like how it goes, I might do more in the future, and cover movies too. Once I iron out the details, I'll be sure to pass the info along. That is pretty much it, if you have any feedback, feel free to drop a comment, catch me on AIM @ Hulkster841, or shoot me an e-mail @ Hulkster316@msn.com.

SWF Backstage 5

Dean welcomes us to the FINAL SWF Backstage, reminding us that next week, SWF Main Event returns! Dean says tonight, we will see profiles of The Black Dragons, Repo, Silkky Smooth, Freedom Fighter, Angelica Summers, and Dean himself! Without further ado, we start the show!

Profile of The Black Dragons
As they are brothers, their story weaves together. The brothers were born in Osaka Japan, Quow Ling is Quow's real name, and Shadow's name is Kenji Ling. The two grew up raised by an abusive single father, which ended up causing the older brother, Kenji to strike out on his own at 15. Kenji told his younger brother (by four years) to report their father to the police, so he wouldn't be left alone with him once he ran away, because he refused to take such a young kid with him to a life of uncertainty. The night Kenji left, the boy's father flew in a rage, hearing of their plans before Quow could report him, and he chopped of part of Quow's pinky! That explains the missing part of the finger (which he keeps concealed via black athletic tape), he wasn't a member of the Yakuza as some suspected. This sick action finally got the boys dad in jail, and Quow was shipped off to a boys home. He didn't stay however, he took off, much like Kenji did, living on the streets, and eventually street fighting for cash. Back to Kenji, he was living pretty much the same way, but he eventually found a job at a restaurant, then went back home to find Quow so he could go live, and work with him. Kenji found out about what their father did to him, and how Quow ran away from the boys home, and he was crushed. He felt guilty, blaming himself for the whole thing, so he returned to work, thinking his brother was better off, as he only brought him pain. After growing weary of the street fighting, Quow stopped it, deciding to go legit, and train to be a pro wrestler, which is highly respected in Japan, but also something he and his older brother bonded over, watching the top Japan, as well as U.S. promotions together, acting as an escape from their horrible father. Quow trained hard in Tokyo to make his dream happen, while unbeknownst to him, Kenji was doing as well, but only in New York City, where he moved to start his life over again, under a new name, to separate himself from his guilt. The SWF would bring them together, as Extreme Superstar brought the tryouts to both NYC, and Tokyo, signing each man, and as the footage of Extreme says, the two were amazing, wowing him with their fast paced, Japanese styles. When he was signed, Kenji, now going by Alexander Miyagi, decided he wanted to wrestle under a mask as The Shadow, with his shame keeping him from revealing himself to the world, not wanting his brother to ever possibly see his face. But as we now know, the two would come together, almost by fate, but why didn't Kenji reveal himself to Quow once he saw him? Fear. Kenji was sacred that Quow might be angry with him, so he decided to first get close to him, win his confidence, then finally show that he was his brother, hoping their bond would be strong enough to survive after the bombshell was dropped. Extreme comments how odd it was that Shadow would no longer take his mask off once he took on the gimmick, and that he was seemingly stalking Quow, at least until we all found out why at Extrememania. Luckily as we saw, Quow wasn't mad, as he had been searching to find Kenji for the 12 years they'd been apart, and they remain, arguably the top team in the SWF.


Profile of Repo
His real name is Jake Long, and he was born in Newark New Jersey. Jake worked at an auto mechanic, before deciding to make the jump to wrestling, but he was stumped when it came to a gimmick or name. Jake had always been shy, so he figured he wouldn't do so well with the entertainment side of wrestling. Jake looked at many old tapes, hoping maybe to lift some character from those. After seeing the Repo Man, who used to "reposes" people's property, he got the idea to take that to another level, stealing wrestler's entire personas! That is also why he uses the name Repo. In the footage of Extreme, Extreme says he loved the gimmick, and Repo proved to be a capable wrestler.


Profile of Silkky Smooth
Silkky was born Otis Moore in Las Vegas Nevada. Otis went to business, school, and decided to open up a business that had already been a proven moneymaker in Vegas, a brothel. Using the name and persona Silkky Smooth, Otis' business flourished, and he was a rich man, but now that he had wealth, it was time to pursue his dream of wrestling. Silkky trained in Vegas, and when the SWF tryouts came to town, he showed up, where he "showcased his fantastic brawling skills", according to Extreme.


Profile of The Freedom Fighter
He was born John McBain in Washington D.C., to a proud tradition of firefighters, police, and military veterans. John continued the tradition by joining the Marines, then when he got home, he took a job as a park ranger. After a while of that, John decided to try wrestling. John ended up at the SWF tryouts, where he impressed Extreme with technical wrestling ability, and "the great character of The Freedom Fighter".


Profile of Angelica Summers
He was born in Pasadena California, where she aspired to be a newscaster or any sort of broadcast journalist, even an actress. She grew up doing some modeling, and even had quite a career doing many ad campaigns (print, billboard, and television) overseas. She has always loved wrestling, so when she heard that the SWF was looking for a backstage interviewer/potential commentator, she sent in her tape, and obviously, Extreme liked what he saw. We see the footage of Extreme, where he talks of how impressed he was by her knowledge of wrestling, and upbeat attitude.


Profile of Dean Bokerlund
Dean was born in Minneapolis Minnesota, where he eventually studied broadcasting at the University of Minnesota. Dean commentated pretty much all the sporting events there, and also was a DJ at the college radio station, including his own wrestling discussion show. Dean did sports coverage for small Minnesota tv markets, then took the chance to tryout as an announcer for the SWF. Extreme says in the footage that he liked Dean's "authoritative call of the action". Additionally, his nickname "Clean" is a take on how his name is Dean Bokerlund, similar to legendary WWF/WCW interviewer "Mean" Gene Okerlund, so Extreme tacked on the "Clean" as a play on words.


We head back to Dean, who wraps the show up, reminding us to tune in next week, as SWF Main Event returns! As we've come to expect, as the show fades, we see one of those videos. This one has a graphic that reads "Experience the wraith.....SOON". These videos continue to get even more alluring every week. I sense something big in the works, could we find out more on next week's SWF Main Event? Time will tell.

END OF SHOW

Random Stuff!
Well, Random Stuff returns, meaning I'm bored. I've got a few thing I could talk about, the rest I'll just go with the flow for.

In terms of music, my tastes are pretty eclectic, listening to stuff from various genres, but also very limited. That's since I listen on a per-song basis, meaning just because I like a couple Aerosmith songs or something, I'm not truly a big fan, nor are they a favorite band of mine. The favorites spots are held by the very few artist/bands I like pretty much, or all of their work. Anyways, the past few days, I've been trying to expand my horizons in terms of music, since I've pretty much gotten all the songs I know now I like. I've been going through some rap, since I do enjoy quite a bit of old school gangsta stuff, and have a Three Six Mafia CD I really like. My next move is to look into hard rock, since that is where the core of my interest is in.

In other "news", I am going to try and write less about wrestling, since it's hardly a topic that the general public wants to hear about. I will continue the SWF, but try to do more appealing things for future articles that more people would actually read. So, expect a lot of movie chatter, or whatever non-wrestling issues tickle my fancy, which really isn't much :).

Just recently, after not thinking anyone even saw my blog, I was shocked to find a few comments. I don't think one person is actually a regular viewer of my work, like the SWF or anything, but it's cool to know someone has seen it. And, since people are actually seeing this, I might as well pass along my AIM screen so maybe we chat sometime. I really don't have much to do late at night, and I'm an insomniac, so I'm usually on most of the night, and it'd be cool to have someone to just kinda talk with. Like the SNL skit says, just chat, no big whoop. So, if your bored, have an interest in anything you see on my page, or generally have some kind of interest in television, wrestling or movies, send me a message on AIM @ Hulkster841.

Onto television. I have always been a sucker for "old school sitcoms", pretty much from the golden age of sitcoms in the 80's, up until the mid 90's when the plague known as Friends started to make sitcoms turn to crap, by influencing TV writers to make all products of the genre clones of it. One of the shows I used to watch on USA Network's USAM (where they showed some of the lesser, failed 90's sitcoms that were either right before the great change, or rebels that didn't conform)was Ned & Stacey. I loved Thomas Haden Church's work on Wings (which USA also aired seemingly non-stop) as Lowell, and all the other stuff I've seen him in, so I watched it. I knew THC (not the reefer, the aforementioned actor!) left Wings to do that show, but since I had other TV viewing commitments, it took syndication for me to see it. Being like 14 or so when it was on USAM, I don't think I really appreciated the comedy (especially when PERFECT F'N STRANGERS was on the same lineup, so I probably was merely counting down the minutes) as much as I should have, but I liked it. USAM sadly revamped their schedule frequently, so many of the great shows left (even Perfect Strangers), before they stopped it all together. Then, of all places, WOMEN'S ENTERTAINMENT brought back N&S to TV, and when I saw it was on, I tuned in. Now, before I go on, I don't think N&S is a girls show, but WE also plays Two Guys and a Girl (formerly known as "Two Guys, A Girl, and a Pizza Place"), a show that doesn't quite fit the mold either, but I freakin' LOVE, so whatever. Back to N&S, upon watching again, I couldn't believe how funny that show was, I was laughing my ass off the ENTIRE show. I usually don't get too excited or laugh that hard, so everyone in my house was a bit concerned to see me literally rolling on the couch at (mainly)Ned's antics. After that, N&S officially became one of my favorite shows, and should be put up on likewise named section of my site soon. It should be noted that while THC/the Ned character rules all, Stacey isn't a lightweight either, and she's played by Debra Messing, who would shoot to fame as Grace on Will & Grace after N&S ended, another show I like quite a bit (I only keep up with that in syndication though). Notice the weird "&" title connection? Also, the Grace character seems like like a suped up version of Stacey, which is fine, since it's great. But, if I ever met Mrs. Messing, I'd be all "You ruled in Ned & Stacey! That's one of my favorite shows!" instead of how cool Will & Grace is. I just hope maybe one day N&S will make it to DVD. All my favorite shows are slowly starting to hit DVD, and who knows, in two years or so, I could have every episode of them, then never leave my house again. If I somehow got the shows I love on DVD, a worker's comp accident would be worth it, so I could watch all my precious episodes, and get paid.

Well, I want to keep this kinda brief, so thanks for reading, and as a new feature, I will leave you with a random quote:

SWF Backstage, Episode 4 6/26/04

Dean welcomes us to the 4th edition of SWF Backstage, where tonight, The Janitor, Crazy Phil, Octane, Generation Gap, Ayatollah Sheik, Lt. James Dingle, & Walter will be profiled. We waste no time in starting the profiles.

Profile of The Janitor
He was born Stanley Keller in Chicago Illinois. Stanley was an odd kid, and was ostracized the by his schoolmates, which lead to many fights. All those fights ended up getting him expelled in 8th grade, and going to reform school. Stanley's rage only grew by being sent away, and that rage never seemed to dissipate. The only thing he ever liked was wrestling, and the time spent watching it appeared to be the only time he was ever happy. After school, Stanley became a janitor, preferring a hard day's honest work instead of conforming to society's need to be wealthy and powerful. Stanley worked at a big insurance firm, but after a run-in with the company's head honcho, he was fired, since he didn't appreciate being yelled at, so he clocked the boss with his push broom. Stanley ended up working in a gym, one that trained both boxers, and wrestlers. When everyone left at nights, Stanley trained secretly, picking up wrestling with ease. Stanley now knew that he wanted to pursue his love of wrestling, and it just so happened that the upstart SWF was bringing it's talent search to town. We go to the Extreme Superstar footage, where he states that Janitor not only proved to be a talent brawler, but the anger in his promos and ring work were astounding, and that is what made him sign the newly dubbed Janitor.


Profile of Crazy Phil
He was born Phil Margolis in Portland Oregon. Phil had a normal upbringing, it was adult life that makes up his harrowing tale. Phil was a pretty successful owner of a car dealership, had a nice home, two great kids, and a loving wife, but he threw it all away. Times got a little tough when a new dealership came to town, stealing all his business. In desperation, Phil turned to gambling to solve his money woes, but he just ended up deeper in the hole. With bills piling up, and feeling helpless, Phil turned to alcohol. Within a few months, Phil was a gambling addict and an alcoholic. Phil refused help, so feeling powerless, his wife left him, and took the kids with her. All this did was drag Phil deeper into depression, as did the eventual loss of his home and business. Now living on the streets, Phil turned into a rambling fool, having had a nervous breakdown, and he was dubbed Crazy Phil by the locals because of it. Phil eventually was taken to the psych ward after being picked up wandering down the highway. It was there Phil was treated, and he kicked his bad habits, resolving to turn his life around. When he was released, Phil started working on the docks, making just enough to feed himself, and buy an old car to sleep in, but fate had something else in mind for him. You see, Phil was always a big wrestling fan, so when he heard about the SWF tryouts, despite being older, with no experience or skills to speak of, something inside told him he needed to go. Phil had at one time considered being a wrestler, but life interrupted his plans, but now he saw it as a sign. He didn't go in expecting to wow anyone, but just to give it his all, so that he could at least say he tried, and if he did by some chance get signed, he'd have a fresh start, possibly even showing his family that he wasn't a bum. In the never before seen footage, Extreme states that Phil showed up with the same passion he had when he started the SWF, so while Phil wasn't the best athlete, he wanted to give him a shot. Extreme ended up working with Phil himself, training him hard to be as good as he possibly could get him. Extreme says that Phil's desire is the same as what the SWF was built on, and while people laughed, he knew that there was no way he could have turned him away, because he had the heart of a true champion.


Profile of Octane
He was born Dante Black in Detroit Michigan. Dante was always a quiet loner, as well as the biggest kid in school. Dante's parents weren't around much either, not seeming to care about their son, they just left him money, went off doing whatever, and he fended for himself. Dante, having nobody there, learned to cook, and even drive at an early age, since it was necessary if he wanted to eat/get around. That early start at driving allowed Dante to become quite skilled, so as soon as he officially got his licence, he took off to trucking school. The proprietors of the school nearly turned him away, but hired Dante when he showed his excellent driving skills during a road test meant to only humor the kid. Dante spent some years on the road, but grew tired of that, then decided to settle down in Los Angeles working as a bouncer who's reputation stretched to bars across the country. One day, after hearing the loud reaction to a wrestling event being shown in the bar he was working at, Dante decided that he should try that, as he was a monstrous man, who also happened to enjoy the sport since he was a kid. Dante put in his notice, and started training, along side his future ally Petey Pizzazz, who he'd met while working the LA bar scene. The two ended up at the Los Angeles tryouts, and that was that. We see the Extreme footage that says how much he was blown away by the power, and dominance of Octane.


Profile of Disco Danny
He was Born Daniel Torella in New York City. Daniel, or Danny to his friends and family, always seemed enamored with the style, and attitude of the 70's, especially loving disco music. Apparently, seeing what turned out to be his favorite movie, Saturday Night Fever is what hooked him on the decade. Danny got heavy into the disco age after seeing the movie, learning to do the dances, and play guitar/keyboard so he could make his own disco songs. This fascination earned him the nickname he took as a wrestling name, Disco Danny. Danny eventually started his own retro band, covering all the classic disco tunes, and then opened his own vintage record shop/clothing store, where it was all 70's items. Danny's other love was wrestling, so he also decided he needed to try that. Danny ended up hearing about the SWF, and according to Extreme, his hybrid technical/high flying style is what convinced him to hire Danny.


Profile of Jimmy Jam
He was born James Garrett in Los Angeles California. Jimmy, being a child of the 80's, grew up in the era he came to love, and when the decade passed, he never let go, seeing the oncoming 90's generation as inferior. Jimmy started his own 80's tribute bands for various rock groups, playing lead, as well as bass guitar, and singing. Jimmy also opened his own record shop in San Francisco, where he worked while he trained to become a wrestler, a dream of his, since he grew up in the golden age of the WWF. When the SWF tryouts came to San Fran, Jimmy was there, and according to Extreme, Jimmy showed great high flying skills, and wrestling knowledge, plus he has a soft spot for the 80's too, so he liked his "gimmick".

Profile of X
He was born Scotty Phillips in Pine Bluffs Wyoming, to wealthy parents who owned, and operated a meat packing plant. Scotty grew up the all-American kid, was in boy scouts, had good grades, etc, then, he got into the grunge movement of the early 90's. Scotty changed his name to X, separating himself from his wealthy parents, and moved to Seattle, which ironically was funded by his stake in his family business. In Seattle, X trained to become a wrestler, since he, like all the SWF wrestlers, grew up loving the sport. X ended up at the SWF Seattle tryouts, and Extreme says it was his fast paced brawling that impressed him, explaining how he was hired.


Profile of Ayatollah Sheik
He was born Yosef Hussad in Sari Iran amidst much poverty. Yosef overcame all that however, becoming a reputed amateur wrestler and weightlifter. After dominating the Iranian scene in both of his fields, he decided it was time to come to America, ready to compete at the pro level of wrestling. When he felt prepared enough, Yosef sent a tape to the SWF, and Extreme says Yosef reminded him of the Iron Sheik, so he gave him the Ayatollah Sheik name, and signed him, since he could really wrestle, and also showed tremendous power.


Profile of Lt. James Dingle
Dingle was born in Tulsa Oklahoma, but moved to San Francisco where he became a police officer. Dingle is said to have been a bumbling cop, only solving crimes after completely botching up everything. When he was tired of all the reports his exploits forced him to write, Dingle quit the force, and sent an audition tape to the SWF. Extreme apparently liked (since Dingle is newer, we don't see any footage of him on the subject) Dingle's technical wrestling skills, and "interesting" behavior, so he gave him a shot, which obviously landed Dingle a contract.


Profile of Walter
He was born Walter Sobinski in Chino California, where he grew up spending most of his time bowling. Walter became a regional bowling champ in both singles, and team leagues. After a while, Walter wanted to put his large size to better use, by pursuing a career in wrestling. Walter showed much anger and hostility in his promo tape he sent to the SWF, and according to Dean (since as stated earlier, Extreme was gone before he could comment on the newer talent), Extreme loved it, seeing the eery similarities to Walter from a favorite film of his, The Big Lebowski. Extreme had Walter come in, was impressed by his superb brawling ability, and tweaked his character to better match the movie Walter, giving birth to the Walter from SWF.


We then head back to Dean, who tells us to tune in next week for the final SWF Backstage, and that SWF Main Event returns in 2 weeks!

Just before we can see the logo, one of those weird "SOON" promos hits. This one says "Don't fear, because it will all end......SOON". I'll tell you, these promos certainly have me interested.

END OF SHOW

Random Stuff, the return!
I just thought I'd really take the new and improved blog for a test drive, and see what is really up. I must say, the ability to spell check is fantastic, and saves me the trouble of using Word Perfect to check all my stuff on before posting. Anyways, let's start hitting some various random points:


Reno 911's 2nd season just started, and the show still rules.

Ali G returns July 18th, and I'm ready!

Another show I like, Dead Like Me, returns in July as well, so this summer's TV is shaping up for me.

Summerslam is also coming up, which since it started, has been an event I look forward to all year. I hope WWE can deliver, and not dump all over any progress they've made by it being another glory moment for HHH.

My main man, Hulk Hogan, recently commented that he is thinking about a return, all I have to say is YES! PLEEEEEEAAAAAAAAASEEEEEEE, come back Hulk! I am getting so fed up with the garbage in today's wrestling, and it seems the man that made me a fan in the first place, just might be the only one to keep me a fan. I'm sure he will return, he's almost a lock for Wrestlemania 21 next year. I'm already counting down the days, and waiting to buy a ticket.

Another big return could shake things up, that of Bret Hart, who rumors say is pretty much 100% to do a one night only goodbye appearance on WWE programming before year's end. I don't even have to go into detail about what an earth shattering, instantly classic moment that would be.

Lastly, another wrestling thought: I was trying to work on finishing a review of a classic WWF PPV, and when I started to write about the Road Warriors aka the Legion of Doom (who's WWF theme was just playing on my Winamp playlist), I came to a sad realization. The duo literally did everything a tag team could do, and despite whatever WWE hype says, no team can ever measure up. Even sadder is the fact that Hawk passed away last year, and now it feels as though part of that great legacy is gone forever. But after watching some LOD matches, I realized that while no new chapters can be written in the team's saga, their legacy continues on in the hearts and minds of fans like myself, who think fondly of the team, and still get goosebumps when they hear their old theme song, or watch one of their many great in ring successes.
What a rush indeed.
