FFWE: Weekly Wresting Wrap Up

[fantasyfilmsman]

Well my fellow wrestling fans it is time for a new year and a new beginning. I have just finished watching the Annual FFWF (Oh wait my bad FFWE) New Years Meltdown and boy what a doozy.

First let me get this off my chest. Yeah last year 2118 was a rough year for the FFWF as they lost sponsors, viewership, money, and some cast of characters due to them cleaning house or basically winning a heated war of the realms. Nothing big right. Well Massif leads off this TV show with an asinine announcement that there is a name change. Now between you me and my couch, who gives a rats right. We want bloodshed. We want power bombs. We want Wrestlers. But to garner back a sour name the head honchos in Fantasy Films Inc. have gone on to Wrestling Entertainment. Yeah, they rule the galaxy with movies, books, you name so whatever. OK my rant is over lets get to the action.

Massif concludes his speech, you gotta love the lug head, and announces that the belts have all been stripped. The past is the past. I know after their Christmas bash, the 2nd best show of the year not a PPV, they said there were going to be changes and I wondered why they didn't have any titles up for grabs, well here's the reason. All five major belts up for taking. Oh Nelly. Well here we go.

The Divas came out first in a weird wild six man tag match for the Woman's Championship. Team one consisted of Shann-Ra, Latahsa, and Lorelei. The other was Phantasy (who can be my Phantasy) Thrash and the tart known as She Devil. Oh boy. The catch. The person who pins wins the belt. This match caused all sorts of action, preening, girls fighting amongst each other to tag in as no one wanted to give an inch. At one point all six Diva's were in the ring. After all the chaos and order was restored the action continued at a fever pitch. What looked like disaster on paper turned into a great warm up match for the evening. In the end Phantasy pulled out her patented finisher on Latasha and before even her own team-mates could stop her, she won. So your new 2119 champion was the babe Phantasy. Latasha looked pissed as hell and wouldn't you know it a cat fight later on broke out between the two backstage. A feud in the making folks and I like it. Lets hope there's a lingerie match somewhere down the line. Beers on me.

The next saw a 40 minute barn burner where every Tag Team in the division was thrust ed out to battle in a Warzone style mini tournament. The power Titans got the first draw along with SOD. And low and behold the Gladiators got the last draw. Not good for anyone else. The action was fast and furious and the Titans almost won the first three matches but Stars and Stripes had other plans. In the end the Gladiators vanquished the Horde as Paralyze litter ally Power bombed Antak into the canvas. They were peeling the poor bug out and the crew had to come out and fix the ring. This was another great event but the night would only get better. Again though the Gladiators are going to be the team to beat. But the team to watch possibly are the Titans.

Next up came an awesome Fatal Four Way for the Interplanetary Championship. It pitted Kill Prey, Swarm, Sly Drury, and Switchblade against each other. This one was match of the night. High flying action, great spots, lots of drama and four guys just kicking the crap out of each other and going all out to put someone down. In the end Kill Prey on his last legs with a worn out Switchblade who had just tossed Sly Drury out of the ring got surprised roll up and pinned. To say I was shocked to see Kill holding the new era Inter belt was to say the least. It was a great finish to a great match.

The next and last match for the night was for the Galaxian Championship in a Belt in the Bank match. Real simple, climb the ladder, grab the belt and you win. Easy right, well the big guns came out Bloodline, Encubus, Epoch, Disaster and Endgame. Contrasting styles and the action was fierce. This match was a stellar match as everyone had their share of almost wins. It wasn't quite on par with the last match but some of the highlights included Disaster Gladiator Piledriving Epoch off the Ladder. Endgame Ultima leaping from the top of the ladder to the floor on Disaster. Encubus going for a Gamemaster DDT only to be Rampaged by Disaster who then was plummeted with ladder and all by Endgame to the outside. In the end in true fashion Encubus laid out Endgame and as he was setting up the ladder when Bloodline climb up to the top of the turnbuckle and flew through the air crashing into the ladder and Encubus, then setting the ladder up. Climbing to the top and joining is dad in History as Champ. So First time champ in the FFWF was Star Warrior, New FFWE champ Bloodline. The only thing better would have been if pops was here to witness it.

Well that was the show and to say it was a great start was putting it short. If things continue then this year is looking to be tops. Next week I'll wrap up a Saturday Morning Mayhem and Special Tuesday Night Twister. Until then this is Noyrb Rengam, Cosmic Nova Blast to you. Out.

[Thomas (TK)]

Nice start!

I like how you decided the Women's Champion! Nice twist!

Keep writing bubba and I'll stop in to see what is going on!

[Avarice]

I like your perspective...interesting to see it from a fan's POV in the writing...maybe I'm reading it wrong though. lol

Not too many NB era feds out there, but cool to see one. Looking forward to more.

[fantasyfilmsman]

Welcome back everyone from an interesting week of wrestling. This was a busy week for me as my lady announced to me that we are going to be having our very own little one running around here in about a year. Yes we Gogantians take about a year to gestate so sometime around my favorite TV program I'm going to be having a little Gogan to help take care of (hold the applause, Please) Now onto the week in the FFWE.

And this week we see the plot-lines starting to flesh out at least sort of. There were some very interesting matches to say the least. We had a title change and a new belt was decided though who was put into the match will be debated. First up was Saturday Morning Mayhem. The weekly TV show that airs across the galaxy in the mornings. Since the ratings and sponsorship dry up this is all the FFWE could muster with scattered special weekday night events here and there. That's OK, they got a lot to bring back and to the table and this will be just fine to get viewership back and people's butts in the seats and then develop and sign more talent. Every league goes through it and a transition year in scale back form is sometimes great because we get to see our favorites more often.

There were five matches one of them a title defense. First though were the ladies. It was an excellent start. Lorelei and Thrash. Experienced veterans who didn't disappoint. Both may be on the back end of their careers but the in ring action was dynamite. The match went back and forth with Lorelei at one point dropping her patented Maternal Rage on Thrash who then kicked out and dropped two Femme Fatels on Lorelei before the ref counted three. The Aethern's look still like a strong stable and the new Captain of the FDF starts in the wrong direction though in reality Lorelei isn't probably in the championship picture this year.

The next match brought some fireworks though. The SOD came out to rockus boos. And then came the Titans. The crowd was into this one as the Titans look as popular as ever and they are exciting to watch. This one didn't last long as the Titans were too much for SOD, who look like utter crap and Tanck got pinned by Tristin in about a minute time. I kid you not. SOD (I will keep referring to them as such because that's too what I think of when I see them, Dirt.) could not muster anything. An Arcana put him away and the crowd loved it. But it didn't stop there. The CTA-102 connection really shone as Tristin then blasted The Betrayer and both Tristin and Payback began to blast Tanck in the ring after the bell to send a message. The Titans don't need to worry about SOD in my opinion but a message was indeed sent.

Next up was a so so match as I won't spend so much time on it. Switchblade who is fun to watch fought Sly Drury. Switchblade won and really that's all that can be said. Sly well isn't so Sly and he needs to show me something or else I see Jobber in this guys future.

Next up was an intriguing Interplanetary match. Swarm vs Kill Prey. Kill Prey looked to be stalking the whole match and really wanted Swarm's blood. The match had many high spots including a beautiful cross body from Swarm and the meanest Ambush put on said Swarm who to the crowds delight kicked out. It was all guts and fortitude after that and an Andromeda drop on Kill Prey some 30 seconds later seemed to stun the Prey and Swarm got the pin and the belt. Hot damn. That's what I'm talking about. Swarm as champ. It's good to see a good young guy get there. Kill Prey looked pissed and immediately got up off the mat and began to attack but Minotaur and She Devil, Swarm's main squeeze came out to ringside and restore order. This is going to be something to watch.

The final pitted Endgame vs Disaster. Talk about a monster bash. Big moves, bigger thunderous booms being dished out. The fact that this match lasted 7 plus minutes is a testament. Endgame did survive a Rampage and Disaster survived two Ultima leaps but in the end Endgame put the Figure Four on Disaster who would not tap out and passed out. Endgame just shook his head and walked out the ring. When Disaster came too he got up and threw the ref and medical staff out of the ring and glared up the ramp. So far his year has not started the way he wanted.

Tuesday Night Twister had me intrigued. The headline even though he just lost as did Sly was them fighting for the Heavy Metal. Really. Massif couldn't have found someone else. This belt is the tough-man belt where it's defense is always some specialty stipulation and you get two losers. Well Tuesday did some some great matches on board. Switchblade vs Swarm in a non title. The Titans vs Guardians, and Endgame vs Encubus. That's what I'm talking about.

First up were the ladies again. Again they put on a great show. Latasha really was all over Thrash from the get go, but somehow the Aethran pulled deep down and dropped a Femme Fatel on Latasha who could not kick out in time. Almost match of the night.

The night continued with the Tag teams going at it. Lots of high flying action. Payback slammed both Reckless and Valour through tables, but missed an Exvenge on Valour. Payback did tag out but Tristin could not sustain any momentum and Valour put him away with his Warrior's Rage. Still the Titans brought it and the Guardians proved they are the real deal too. Once finished Valour grabbed a mic and called out the Gladiators, who of course are above responding. I like Valour but he's just got to let his wrestling speak for itself.

Next was a crazy Barbed Wire Cosmic Cage match. Disaster and Sly beat the ever loving crap out of each other. I was not looking to this match at all, but it ended up being match of the night. Sly hung in there, but with both warriors bleeding from all over, the mat turning crimson, Disaster dropped back to back Rampages on Sly and then walked out. He then walked right over to the table and grabbed his belt and left. He didn't smile, say anything. He looked pissed and beating up on Sly did not relieve any stress. He must be taking heat from his Aethran brothers who have all won so far so the monkey is off the back.

The next match on paper looked good, but getting two good guys who don't want to really hurt each other in the ring good action does not make. Swarm dropped a Hornet's Sting on Switchblade for the win.

The main event came and Encubus flew into the ring on his intro looking to prove something. Endgame came out calm and cool and the match began. It went back and forth at one time Encubus dropped every finisher he had on him on Endgame who only went on to kick out. The crowd loved it even began chanting Captain Galaxy at one point. Don't know why but I think it's reference to a chant started on Earth towards Endgame that has stuck. Encubus looked frustrated and Endgame came back alive even putting Encubus in his masterful figure four. Though Thantos that crafty wiley veteran he is helped out and got Encubus to the ropes. It was all that was needed to distract Endgame who then tapped out to the Masterlock. Shocking. Encubus celebrated as such and addressed the crowd, on how the FDF was in trouble and their champ (Chump as he put it) was in trouble and he was coming for him.

Well a good week in wrestling continued folks and if the FFWE can maintain then things are looking up. Another Saturaday and Tuesday are on the docket next week to discuss. Again when in doubt drop a good ol Rolling Figure Four to make them tap out on you. Later.

Good write up!

Capt'n Galaxy better be careful cuz Encubus is not one to play around with ! ;D

[fantasyfilmsman]

Welcome back to another week in this here column. This week brought a ok but very short Saturday show as in the FFWE new incarnation they have brought back the Team Challenges that they have been running since the beginning of time. Me personally I enjoy them as we get team vs team and good vs evil so to speak to see who beats who with points and money going to the winners. Some fans detest it, I myself love it, but like this week, I can see some tweeks will be needed to keep it interesting. We also saw another Tuesday night spectacular with all title defenses and for the most part is was awesome.

First the Team Challenge on Saturday only saw three fights. The FDF was up first and they pretty much pulled the jobbers in the mens and Lorelei gets a rematch vs Thrash.

Lorelei started things off against Thrash and like the last time she held her own but in the end got thrashed. Thrash dropped her patented finisher and already the Gladiators are off to the races with the lead in the Team Challenge. To me Lorelei just looks a little slow and a little tired. To bad.

Next we had Switchblade vs The Betrayer. Two more high fliers that turned into a sweet match. Lots of action in this one. The Betrayer dropped two different finishers on Switch who proceeded to kick out and The Betrayer also did a sweet backsomersault splash outside the ring that almost got Switch counted out. But in the end Switch used his ring intelligence to turn the tide and dropped Blades of Retribution on Betrayer for the win. Switch has still got it and doesn't look to be slowing down this year. That's good news for us guys who like the fliers. The Betrayer showed me something here and with more work might turn into someone to watch. Only time will tell.

The last match saw Payback fight Sly (sucky) Drury. Not much to say about this one but Payback decimated the Sly. The crowd loved it and we got to see Exvenge and a nasty one at that dropped for a win, but Sly had nothing to show about the Extreme Titan.

Saturday done it was on too Tuesday. So after my day job. Yes I have one, you think this pays the bills, I could only dream. Though it does me good to keep the wife happy with surprises. Hah. I digress. Tuesday I was really looking forward too. All but the Inter championship were on the line and I have to hand it to Massif. This was great to see. Payback after his Sly win was rewarded a shot at the Heavy Metal in an Andromeda Street fight against Disaster. Last but not least we got an Encubus and Bloodline main eventer for the Galaxian. Those two fights alone had me dreaming.

The ladies again led off the show as Phantasy got a crack at Thrash. Believe it or not Phantasy had no answer for Thrash. She basically got her but kicked around the ring for four and a half minutes before Thrash dropped a Femme Fatal on her for the win. I was a little bummed as I don't pull punches as Phantasy is my girl. I love her move set and high risk high reward style. But right now Thrash is just nasty.

The next match saw another Gladiator team take the ring. The tag team champs to be exact. Their opponent for the night the Guardians. This match was all kinds of badassness. Back and forth. Havoc dropped two straight Fallen Dreams on Valour but Reckless was there to stop one of the pin-falls. Paralyze brutalized Reckless with a High Tension twice. But the Guardians had their own high spots. Reckless beasted up Havoc who had no answer and Valour took a chair to a leaping Havoc that changed the momentum. Valour almost got DQ twice once for his Violent Outburst but Paralyze kicked out. The biggest was Valour getting decked with a Paralyzer only to have Reckless save the day. Then somehow Valour found the strength to tag out and Reckless exploded into the ring like a house on fire and just destroyed Paralyze who tagged out to Havoc who ended up getting small packaged for the win. Wholly Mackerel. The Guardians are the new champs. To say the guys were excited would be an understatement. The pop in the crowd was pretty loud and I'm happy for them. You could see Paralyze yelling at Havoc on the way back to the locker room. Wish I was a bug in that conver. Nice words were not exchanged. I'm sure of it.

The next saw another Gladiator Disaster versus Payback. This match should have been stellar but it never really got off the ground. Disaster still fuming from his opening loses and the Glads losing the tag belts seemed to fire him up. Disaster never picked up a weapon and Payback who took a chain a couple times to Disaster never seemed to phase the brute. Disaster dropped a Rampage on Payback for good measure and secure the win. The crowd was pretty silent and again Disaster didn't celebrate he just left the ring to Payback. Who upon recovering got applause.

The next match was match of the night. Earlier we had a back stage brawl between Thantos and Bloodline. Thantos sure knows how to get under the skin of people and Bloodline appeared hobbled as he entered the ring. Encubus asked for special lighting on this one so everything was laid out in blood red. It was an eerie effect and just heightened the mood of the match. This match had it all. And right before the beginning I saw Encubus mouth he was going to make Bloodline tap. Everything happened in this one. Encubus survived a Cosmic Big Bang thanks to dad. Bloodline survived two DDT's thanks to well himself. At one point Thantos had Bloodline chasing him around the ring and Encubus countered with a flying knee that almost got Bloodline counted out, but Thantos threw Bloodline back into the ring. For the next couple minutes it was all Encubus, and the crowd chants started for Bloodline. It seemed to wake him up as he reversed a Turnbuckle move and proceeded to start with his destruction. Encubus again turned the table and did put on the Masterlock but Bloodline got to the ropes and broke the hold. Then on the restart Bloodline found a way to put Encubus in the Cetus Sleeper and proceeded to put Encubus away by submission. Thantos stormed the ring and cheap shoted Bloodline which brought Switchblade to the rescue. Order was restored to the cheering fans.

Well that wraps this up. Until next week there will be lots to discuss especially the first PPV of the year as match ups will be announced. Until then night night Cetus tight. Out.

Some good stuff here as your fed moves along. I'm liking the fan perspective of things. He will be busy with a little one running around for sure in a year, but when they get bigger, he can take the kid to the matches with him. Looking forward to what the PPV matches are gonna be. Keep it up.

[Thomas (TK)]

Nice pace! Your fed is turning out to be quite interesting and can't wait until the PPV! Keep 'em coming and I'll keep reading!

[swarm]

Been reading. Keep it up. Tons of potential here for a breakout fed in 2012.

[Crimson Dragon]

This is a nice read I love the fan perspective of it. I will be reading this one as I am intrigued.
