PHWF Thursday Throwdown 2
Live! From the Asheville Civic Center

MURDER INC. vs. REDNECK REVOLUTION & GORDY LEFLEUR

Murder Inc comes to the ring first and gets booed out of the building. Icepick gathers DaVida and Kielbasa in the corner and lays the law down to both of them. While he is doing that “Love Machine” Billy Wayne Woodard, Puck Dupp and Gordy “Curling Stone” LeFleur are announced and make their way to the ring. Murder Inc tries to attack, but The Rednecks and LeFleur are ready for them. What follows is an all out brawl that goes all over the arena. Kielbasa nails Dupp with a chair, Kielbasa tries to put Woodard through a table, but he gets driven into the ring apron instead. In the ring Icepick and LeFleur fight it out. The referee gives them TONS of leeway here and the crowd eats it up. The end comes after almost twenty minutes of non-stop action. Kielbasa and Icepick have LeFleur in the ring, Icepick holds him while Kielbasa pulls out a BLACKJACK! He swings it, but LeFleur moves and he KO’S ICEPICK! LeFleur grabs Kielbasa and slams him in the face with a headbutt sending him out of the ring, then falls on Icepick for the cover and three count!
WINNERS – Redneck Revolution & Gordy LeFleur

STEVE THE LOST VIKING & SAMMY BLACKFOOT vs. VANCE CANNON & CONNOR MCNASTY

The uber popular Steve the Lost Viking and Sammy “Firewater” Blackfoot are out first. Vance Cannon and Connor McNasty are out next and the match begins. Connor and Vance try to gain an unfair advantage and beat Blackfoot to the mat, but he fights back and releases a war cry that goes over well in these parts and DESTROYS Vance and Connor with chops and kicks. Blackfoot tags in Steve, and he bellows like a wounded buffalo and charges at the two taking them over the top rope to the floor with clotheslines. The match continues on and Steve has Vance goozled for a CHOKESLAM when McNasty chop blocks him from behind. Steve falls to the mat in pain. The two charge Blackfoot in the corner and knock him to the floor, then Cannon SLAMS him face first into the post. They slide back into the ring, and as Steve gets back to his feet McNasty hits him from behind with a SPEAR as Cannon KILLS him with a CANNON SHOT clothesline. Cannon covers STLV, getting a handful of tights for good measure, and gets the three count.
WINNERS in 19:11 – Vance Cannon & Connor McNasty

LAYNE COBAIN vs. DILLON WALKER vs. PRESTON DAVENPORT QUIGGLEVILLE III vs. THE SAINT – Fight For the Right to Work – First Eliminated Leaves PHWF

All four men are announced and make their way to the ring. Not much is known about the Saint. He was just signed to a PHWF contract this past week and was immediately give the chance to prove himself. The bell rings and PDQ and Walker go after Cobain. The Saint initially remains in the corner, but then he gets into the fray evening the mix. The Saint and Walker slug it out in the middle of the ring and eventually fall between the ropes to the floor. PDQ sends Cobain to the ropes and catches him on the rebound with a big powerslam and covers, but Cobain kicks out at two. PDQ tries to pull him up but Cobain grabs an inside cradle for a two and a half count. The match continues on with all four men escaping near falls and getting near falls of their own. The end comes with the Saint and Dillon Walker on the floor on the outside after being dumped by PDQ. Cobain is down after taking a BRAINBUSTER from the Saint, Quiggleville toys with him, but Cobain pops up and goes for SLICED BREAD #2 but Quigglevlle reverses the move and turns it into a TOMBSTONE! He covers and gets the one, two, THREE! Layne Cobain is GONE from the PHWF!
WINNER in 25:35 – Preston Davenport Quiggleville III

Quiggleville poses in the ring afterward and gets showered with boos. The Saint and Dillon Walker make their way to the back. Cobain looks dejected as he walks around ringside slapping hands with the fans. As he heads up the ramp one man catches his attention. He walks over to the fan, and they have a short conversation. Cobain nods and shakes his hand, then heads up to the ramp to the back. What was that all about?

PHWF World Tag Team Title Tournament Semi-Finals

BAY BRIDGE BOYZ vs. WRATH OF GODS

Jinx and Spazz are announced and race to the ring, where they are blindsided by Zabi Khan and Shiva Singh who are waiting at ringside! They beat down the Bay Bridge Boys, throwing Jinx into the ring steps, then double whipping Spazz right into the ring post! Spazz’s head SLAMS into the post with a sickening thud and he falls to the floor, barely conscious, blood POURING from his head. Wrath of Gods throws Jinx into the ring and spend the next ten minutes beating him mercilessly. Zabi Khan hits the WRATH OF KHAN on him and that will do it. He covers, one, two, thre…..NO! Somehow Jinx kicks out! Shiva Singh comes in and he lines Jinx up for an ASIATIC SPIKE, but Jinx ducks and POPS him with a superkick to the mouth. The crowd roars as Spazz finally gets onto the apron, but he can barely stand. Inside the ring, Singh gets to his feet again and lunges at Jinx, Jinx moves and Spazz catches him by the head. Jinx uses the last bit of energy he has to SUPERKICK Khan off the apron, Spazz drops off the apron clotheslining Singh on the rope. He staggers backward and Jinx grabs him and hits a perfect GERMAN SUPLEX for a three count!
WINNERS in 15:50 – Bay Bridge Boyz

AKIRU TORNADO & MOSSI OXLADE vs. THE DRACULS

The Draculs are out first and are frothing at the mouth for some violence. They look like they are about to climb over the railing and into the crowd when Mossi Oxlade and Akiru Tornado are announced. The Draculs try to attack but Oxlade and Tornado repel them. We get a relatively normal match – by Dracul standards – they manage to bloody Oxlade and nearly break Tornado’s back with a running powerbomb into the guardrail, but the crowd favorites fight back and get the advantage. The end nearly comes when Tornado hits Tavian with a TORNADO DDT out of the corner and Oxlade comes out of NOWHERE with a SUPERFLY SPLASH! Radu breaks up the pin with a kick to the mouth. The match breaks down a bit as all four men fight to keep order. As Radu and Oxlade fight in the middle of the ring, Tavian nails Tornado with a low blow on the outside. He gets him onto the apron and hits the HUNGARIAN SPIKE (vertebreaker) off the apron through a table! Tornado may be DEAD! Tavian slides into the ring and hits a low blow on Oxlade while the referee is arguing with Radu. They pick him up and hit a SPIKE PILEDRIVER and get the three count and win. The crowd is NOT pleased.
WINNERS in 20:11 – The Draculs

PHWF World Heavyweight Title/World TV Title Tournament Semi-Finals

MATTY ALLOUETTE vs. VLAD DRACUL

Dracul comes out and celebrates with his brothers. Matty Allouette is announced next and makes his way to ringside, then shakes his head and calls to the referee. They talk and seem to agree, and the referee sends Tavian and Radu to the back, which does not make them the slightest bit happy. Matty finally climbs into the ring and Vlad attacks him from behind. Allouette fights back and keeps the fight clean, despite Vlad’s best efforts. The French-Canadian counters every one of Vlad’s dirty tricks and seems well on his way to victory when Vlad catches him out of nowhere with a spinning elbow to the side of the head that knocks Matty goofy. Vlad pounces and pummels Allouette for several minutes and gets numerous near falls on the crowd favorite. Dracul traps Allouette in a CAMEL CLUTCH and tries for the submission, but Matty fights out of it and regains the advantage. The end of the match comes when Dracul grabs a chair and swings for the fences, but Allouette ducks it and drop kicks Dracul in the back, sending him into the corner and slamming the chair in his face! As Vlad staggers backward, Matty lifts him and hits the BURNING HAMMER! He rolls Vlad up and gets the one, two, THREE just before Tavian and Radu get into the ring!
WINNER in 30:03 – Matty Allouette

The Draculs beat Matty down, mercilessly pounding him with punches and kicks. The crowd roars as the Bay Bridge Boyz race to the ring with kendo sticks and make the save. Jinx and Spazz help Allouette to his feet and they dare the Draculs to come back into the ring, but the Draculs are not particularly fond of even odds, so they slowly retreat to the back, dragging Tavian – who doesn’t care what the odds are – with them

EMBER BLACKPOOL vs. BISHOP BLAIZE

The demonic Blackpool is out first. He slowly makes his way to the ring, the crowd just in awe. He steps over the top rope and snarls at the fans and waits for his opponent. Bishop Blaize is announced next and races to the ring and slides under the bottom rope. He is the crowd favorite, but he has a tall order ahead of him tonight. The bell rings and the match begins. Blaize tries to use his speed advantage to get Blackpool off his feet, but the big man thwarts him at every opportunity. Blackpool catches Blaize with a clubbing clothesline that sends him to the mat, he drops a knee across his chest and gets a two count. Blackpool pulls Blaize up and whips him to the corner, but Blaize scales the ropes and nails Blackpool with a spinning heel kick to the face that rocks the big man! Blaize keeps the attack on, rocking him with punches and kicks, then finally takes the big man down with a PELE KICK! Blaize climbs to the top rope and lands a SSP and gets a TWO count! The crowd goes wild! Blaize pulls Blackpool up again and lands several kicks to the sides of his legs, then springs off the middle rope and tries a cross body block, but Blackpool catches him and hefts him to his shoulders and tries a POWERBOMB, but, YOU CANNOT POWERBOMB BISHOP BLAIZE! He slips over Blackpool’s shoulders and tries to roll him up, but Ember grabs him and pulls him to his feet and slams him in the face with repeated headbutts, then lifts him for a CHOKESLAM but Blaize wraps his legs around Blackpool’s head and traps him in a TRIANGLE CHOKE! He falls to the mat and Blackpool is in TROUBLE! Blackpool tries to lift him, but he drops to one knee, and the crowd roars. He tries a second time and gets Blaize up, then SLAMS him into the corner. The back of Blaize’s head slams into the turnbuckle and his eyes are glassy. Blackpool regains his composure and savagely attacks Blaize in the corner beating him down with punches and kicks, nearly drawing the disqualification several times. Finally he pulls Blaize out of the corner and hits a POWERBOMB and covers, but Blaize kicks out! Blackpool snarls and hits a second, third, then FOURTH powerbomb proving that you CAN in fact powerbomb Bishop Blaize. Blaize can’t kick out of this one, and Blackpool gets the three count.
WINNER in 28:53 – Ember Blackpool

After Blackpool and Blaize leave the ring, GM Nate Corbitt comes out to the ring

Ladies and Gentlemen I hope you have enjoyed another outstanding week of PHWF action. Join us next week when we have the FINALS of the PHWF tag team tournament. The Bay Bridge Boyz take on the Draculs. And, we will crown a PWHF World AND Television champion as Ember Blackpool faces Matty Allouette! But I promised you last week I would reveal how the PHWF came back, I would introduce you to the money man, the man who approached me and told me he wanted back into the wrestling business. That’s right, many of you already know of this man. Ladies and Gentlemen……..LJ Bennett!

<the crowd seems to buzz over this. No one has heard a word from LJ Bennett in years. Bennett makes his way to the ring, shakes hands with Nate Corbitt, then takes the mic>

I can see by the look on your faces that some of you are surprised to see me. I guess it is fair to say that my last venture into wrestling ended less than successfully. That’s ok though, you can’t keep a brilliant man such as myself down. I saw an opportunity here with the PHWF and I plan on taking it. I made a few calls, I offered a few contracts and I assembled a roster that would be the envy of any wrestling fed on the planet

<the crowd cheers this, mostly, though they don’t seem to completely trust Bennett. LJ looks out over the crowd and laughs, but then his eye seems to catch something. He looks closer, then tells the light guy to throw a spotlight over there>

Well well well. Look who it is. <the camera pans over and we see a man in a blue t-shirt and red hat> Ladies and Gentlemen we have us a visitor this week. You may know him as the former General Manager of the OOWF, GM the Rick. What I know him as now, is the General Manager of the OVOOWF because after I attempted to take over the OOWF, he was never the same. Come on up here Ricky, clearly you are here for a reason.

<GM the Rick is hesitant at first, but after encouragement from the crowd, he heads to the ring and climbs between the ropes>

GMtR: Look Bennett, I am not here for any trouble. You did a real nice job of raiding our roster to fill yours. Some of these guys are personal friends of mine, I am just here to make sure they are being treated right.

LJB: Oh please Ricky, no one is buying that bullshit. What was that bit with Cobain earlier?

GMtR: I was just consoling an old co-worker Bennett, that’s all. No reason to get sand in your vagina.

LJB: <seething> You little……..<calming down some> You know what Rick…….the past is the past, right? I know you run the OVOOWF now, and I would like to propose a peace offering. Next week, we crown the new PHWF tag team, television and world champions. Why don’t you bring your boys down here to the Asheville Civic Center and we can have us a nice little photo op in the middle of the ring? Whaddya say Ricky? Two small feds trying to carve their niche in the wrestling world. Two former rivals now co-existing. It’s all good press Ricky!

GMtR: What makes you think I would trust you Bennett?

GM Nate: Mr. Scaia……you have my word. You bring your champions right here to Asheville next week and they will be treated well. We are not looking for trouble. In fact, we will spring for their hotels. It’s on us

<GM the Rick seems to consider this for a moment, then nods his head and shakes hands with Corbitt, then after hesitation, shakes Bennett’s hand as well. The show ends with the three of them in the middle of the ring and the crowd chanting PHWF! PHWF! PHWF!
