X.P.P.W.

[lordhumongous]

thanx crimson its always nice for people that are also into filsinger games to give you compliments on the fed you run. as always I hope you continue to enjoy the action from the xppw

thanx booker for the nice comments having people that have won fed of the quarter awards comment on my fed is great. big boost of confidence going forward knowing you I am atleast in the ballpark on writing an enjoyable fed. while I don't want brody to join the lod with the warriors and warlord he seemed like a natural fit to team up with them to battle the hoh. Danielson is out of the gate fast and on a good roll. as for my booking as you know sometimes the dice gods throw you for a loop and mess up your storylines perfect example is dr death as the mafia enforcer. with loses to the warlord and jerry lynn that is not going wherei wanted but maybe it will lead to something else.

thanx crue for the comments and following along. I have been waiting to intro humongous for awhile and he is finally here.{I am a huge fan of his obviously} I have big plans for him and am hoping they pan out. as far as rogers and aries that just seemed like a natural fued to me. if they were actually wrestling at the same time I could see them not getting along at all. big win for van dam coming back from injury was pulling for rude{also one of my all time favorites}but the dice went the other way.

CARD #7 9/8/13
VAN ANDEL ARENA
GRAND RAPIDS MICHIGAN

The sell out crowd showed up early to the arena tonite when it was announced there would be meet and greet with the superstars of the XPPW. The popular Bryan Danielson had a massive turn out. Most of the fan favorites enjoyed quite turn of fan support but not like Danielson. The only negative to happen was when brave fan tried to get her picture with her baby taken standing by Ox Baker and he scared the baby and the little girl cry. Other than that it went real well and will probably happen again down the road.

Paul Ellering and the Legion Of Doom were standing in the ring as the lights went up.Ellering was standing in the middle holding a mic while Animal, Hawk, and Warlord were behind looking angry and ready to tear somebodies head off.
ELLERING: Usually a persons iq is taken with a test to determine how smart they truly are, but occasionally a person will open their mouth and take the need for that test. That person I am talking about is Lord Humongous. We have seen him twice and both times he opened his mouth and stupidity fell out. You sir have gained the attention of some men I think you wouldn't want to piss off. I will let them tell you about it.
HAWK: Listen up Lord Humongous and the Ponies Of The Apocalypse. We grew up on the streets of Chicago where our favorite hobby was beatin people up. You bring your sorry a**es here and think you are gonna make a name for yourself. That is a dangerous path you chose because we snack on danger and dine on death. The only chaos you are gonna be involved in is having the LOD chasing you around, the only decay will be the stink of your rotting corpse after we catch you. Tell'em big man!
ANIMAL: YOU GOT OUR ATTENTION BOYS! WE AREN'T THE MULKEYS WE ARE THE BEST D**N TAG TEAM TO EVER EXIST. WE ARE GONNA BE THOSE BULLIES THAT SHOW UP TO YOUR WASTELAND AND KICK SAND IN YOUR FACE AND SEND YOU CRYING TO YOUR MOMMY! TELL'EM WARLORD.
WARLORD: {The Warlord says nothing but only growls loudly and snaps the mic in two before dropping it and leading the way out of the ring.}

MATCH #1 MAGNUM TA VS ANTONIO CESARO
Cesaro starts with a test of strength that takes Magnum to one knee. Turning to argue with the crowd led to Magnum quickly sending a headbutt into Cesaro's gut breaking the hold. Dropkicks by Magnum sent Cesaro reeling and Magnum landed two Belly To Belly Suplexes in a row but was unable to get a pin either. Magnum then went to the second rope but missed an elbow drop allowing Cesaro time to recover. A running boot and brutal pummeling in the corner by Cesaro had Magnum down and in trouble. A clothesline and ddt now had Cesaro moving about the ring all cocky and presuming the win was his. Grabbing Magnum, Cesaro nailed his Neutralizer on Magnum but also didn't capitalize on it seeing Magnum kick out. Cesaro now angry was stomping around the ring and mumbling to himself. This allowed Magnum to surprise Cesaro with multiple jabs and a beautiful dropkick. Magnum goes up top and lands a brutal knee to the jaw of the prone Cesaro. Getting hit with a third Belly To Belly was to much for Cesaro and he was unable to kick out.

That eerie music that everybody was now growing accustom to was blaring thru out the area. The lights go out and the red spotlight shines toward the backstage area. Lord Humongous emerges first followed by 4 men. At first glance one would think they were cousins to the Road Warriors. As they finally reached the ring the lights slowly came back up. Lord Humongous stands with a mic ready to speak.
HUMONGOUS: QUITE PEASANTS! YOU WILL ALL SOON BE MY SLAVES BUT ARE TO IGNORANT TO REALIZE IT! As you were forewarned the impending apocalypse is upon you.

First I give you War{6'7" 327 lbs}, he will crush anyone in his path on his way to the heavyweight title. If that isn't enough next is Conquest{6'2" 251 lbs} the future Heritage Champion.

Van Dam coming over to Heenan who also had Hennig coming towards him was in a bad spot. Both men arrived at the same and Hennig surprisingly sent a chop to the throat of Van Dam and a eye gouge allowed Rude to come up from behind and nail Van Dam with the Rude Awakening for the win. The crowd was in an uproar at their one time favorite Hennig for turning on Van Dam. As Van Dam laid on the mat Heenan, Hennig, and Rude stood together with their arms raised.

[cruefan68]

Card #7 was great, LH. The appearance of Lord Humongous and his mysterious army have me intrigued and I can't wait to see how things play out, especially with the Road Warriors involved. I was pulling for an RVD win but the "Ravishing One" got the better of him on this night. Bruiser Brody vs. Steve Williams was the match of the night for me. Looking forward to the next show.

[Sinclair Promotions]

Just got caught up on this fed. First off all the action has been off the charts. RVD should have seen Hennig turning, that's what you get when you trust a former member of the Heenan Family. Can't wait to see where this goes next.

[aceldamas]

I have just got caught up on with your fed as well. Good stuff. Here are the highlights to me so far:

Tommy Rich joining DiBiase. Well staged. I could totally see it in my mind's eye.

Austin Aries-Buddy Rogers interaction. An ego supercollider.

Dr Death not living up to expectations. Haven't we all been there before: wanting a guy over but the dice refusing?

Your incarnation of the House of Humperdink. I commented at the start how scary that combo would be. And this coming from a guy who has Brody and the Sheik managed by Albano.

[lordhumongous]

thanx crue glad you enjoyed the last card. I got some big plans for humongous and the horsemen I can only hope the dice cooperate but you never know.

thanx Sinclair glad you are enjoying and following along. there is some things I got coming up but they are alittle bit off but I want to do them now but I know not to rush it. there will be a good time to do them just let the dice decide when.

thanx ace I kinda thought rich joining dibiase was a natural fit. rich has made a great heel in his career before so why not here in the xppw. the aries -rogers thing was easy. the way rogers was and aries is you could see it happen for real if they lived at the same time. as for dr death my dice really seem to hate him you will see why in this post. maybe I should switch dice with one of my others filsinger games I have.

CARD #8 9/13/13
FIRST NIAGRA CENTER
BUFFALO NEW YORK

The night starts with the owner of the XPPW Bobo Brazil in the ring. The sold out crowd gives him a huge round of applause.

MATCH #1 DAN "THE BEAST" SEVERN{DEBUT} VS "WILDFIRE" TOMMY RICH W/ "MILLION DOLLAR MAN" TED DIBIASE
Rich seems to be enjoying his time with DiBiase and using dirty tactics as he welcomes Severn with a thumb to the eyes to gain an early advantage. A headlock that slips to an occasional choke keeps Rich on the offensive. A nasty uppercut rocks Severn taking him to the mat allowing Rich to follow up with a fist drop. Rich now starts to strut around the ring arguing with the fans. This gives Severn a chance to attack but a quick boot to the face by Rich sends Severn down again. Severn then ends up on the floor courtesy of Wildfire sending himthru the ropes. As Severn trys to enter the ring he is met with a charging Rich. Being a step ahead Severn gives Rich a neck snap over the top rope sending him flying backwards to the mat. Quickly Severn uses a hip toss and scoop slam to stun Rich. A german suplex and heel hook makes Rich reach for the ropes breaking the hold and enabling Rich to scurry to the floor. Severn not hesitating follows Rich and sends himcrashing to the ringpost. Still stunned Rich is body slammed to the concrete. DiBiase has seen enough and comes up from behind Severn and delivers a wicked low blow dropping the Beast to his knees. The ref had seen enough and disqualified Rich on the spot. DiBiase has to help Rich to the dressing room and Rob Van Dam comes out to check on Severn.
WINNER: DAN "THE BEAST" SEVERN 3:23

MATCH #2 ROAD WARRIORS W/ PAUL ELLERING VS OX BAKER & KEVIN SULLIVAN W/ SIR OLIVER HUMPERDINK
Another match up between the LOD and HOH had the crowd standing in anticipation of the war they were soon to witness. Hawk and Sullivan were in the ring to start the match. Hawk was trying to get Sullivan to lock up in a test of strength but received a boot to the gut instead. Much to Sullivan's surprise Hawk shook it off and blasted Sullivan with a running clothesline that had spit fly from Sullivan atleast into the first five rows. The crowd went crazy chanting HOLY SH** HOLY SH**. Hawk then picks up Kevin and delivers a brutal gorilla press slam then tags in Animal. Using an underhook slam and flying shoulder block on Sullivan left him in a crumpled heap. Hawk then is back in but with the ref making sure Animal leaves the ring Sullivan gave Hawk a groin shot that enabled Kevin to tag in Baker. Hawk still down received stomps and kicks to the head and back as Baker unleashed a destructive attack. An eye gouge, shoulder tackle, and piledriver nearly crippled Hawk. Baker sent Hawk to the floor where Sullivan was able to deliver more kicks as the ref was busy keeping Animal from entering the ring. Sullivan throws Hawk back in and tags into the match. Sullivan then goes up top btu Hawk is back on his feet and takes the feet of Sullivan out from under him dropping him into a very uncomfortable position on the top rope. Hawk now charges from the opposite corner and nails Sullivan with a boot that knocks him to the floor. Baker guards his downed buddy to allow him to recuperate. Hawk tags in Animal who is waiting for Sullivan. Refusing to get in the ring causes Animal to take matters into his own hands and he goes out after him. Chasing Sullivan made it east for Baker to catch Animal with a clothesline as he came around the corner taking the big man off his feet. Hawk was over in no time and all 4 men started to brawl on the floor. Not being able to gain control the ref called for the bell and diaqualified both teams.
WINNERS: DOUBLE DQ

MATCH #3 BRAD ARMSTRONG VS "MR PERFECT" CURT HENNIG W/ BOBBY "THE BRAIN" HEENAN

A running kneelift and multiple forearm hammers beats Armstrong to the mat. Hennig then landed a leg drop off the top rope after planting Armstrong with a piledriver. Two brutal knees to the small of Armstrong's back was enough for him to fall to Hennig's Perfect Plex.
WINNER: "MR PERFECT" CURT HENNIG 1:38

MATCH #4 BRISCOE BROTHERS VS SAMOAN SWAT TEAM
Jay and Alofa were set to hook up. During the tie up Alofa gained control sending Jay to the turnbuckle and drove a shoulder into Briscoe.

A chop to the chest followed by a nail rake across the back and scoop slam had Jay staring at the ceiling. A knee drop to the head had Jay rolling in agony. Now being thrown into the ropes gave Jay the momentum to duck and clothesline Samu on the return trip off the ropes. Quickly he tagged in Mark who knocked Samu down with a spinning wheel kick. A springboard cutter and suicide dive by Mark had things going in the favor of the Briscoes. A missed leg drop from the top swung it back to the Samoans as Alofa came back in.Another throat blow then clothesline set up a devastating double team headbutt that rocked Mark.

Alofa then charged at Jay right into a death valley driver setting up the Doomsday Device and a Briscoe victory.
WINNERS: BRISCOE BROTHERS 8:32

MATCH #5 LOU THESZ VS ANTONIO CESARO
Cesaro begins by getting into the face of Thesz calling him out. A slap to the face by Cesaro surprised Thesz enough to allow Cesaro to shove him into the corner and land several blows driving Thesz to the mat. Repeated stomps to the head had the ref getting inbetween the two backing Cesaro out of the corner. As Thesz stood up he received a big boot to the face taking up and over the ring ropes to the floor. Thesz crawls back in and is greeted with multiple headbutts from Cesaro. The crowd was stunned as Cesaro was having his way with Thesz. Sending Thesz back to the concrete with Cesaro following saw Thesz whipped into the security rail back first and again to the concrete. Breaking the ten count Cesaro rolled into and back out of the ring. This time Thesz was ready delivering stiff forearms and uppercuts rocking Cesaro. Thesz goes back inside the squared circle waiting on Cesaro. As Cesaro tried to enter the ring Thesz nailed him with a shoulder to the gut knocking him back to the floor. Again Cesaro tried to enter the ring and helped by Thesz and a suplex. Dropkicks and an airplane spin had Cesaro staggering around the ring right into a Thesz Press and a 1-2-3.
WINNER: LOU THESZ 5:09

MATCH #6 HARLEY RACE VS "DR DEATH" STEVE WILLIAMS W/ "MILLION DOLLAR MAN" TED DIBIASE
Absolutely incredible match between these tonight. Williams started fast on the attack with a suplex and football tackle. Race seemed to shrug that off fairly quickly returning with a head butt, forearm, and swinging neckbreaker. His assault didn't last long as Dr Death was back with a press slam and Oklahoma Stampede but Race kicked out. A doctor bomb was followed by yet another Oklahoma Stampede and again Race kicked. Another doctor bomb had Williams attempting another pin but not a win. A nasty clothesline on Race coming off the ropes again fired up the crowd. Williams hit his third Oklahoma Stampede but only to see Race kick out again. Totally frustrated Williams let his guard down allowing Race to land a knee to the gut, head butt, and neckbreaker. A solid bodyslam planted Williams in the center of the ring. A fast thumb to the eye had Williams back in charge but not for long as Race reversed a throw into the turnbuckle and folloed in with a clothesline on Williams. A piledriver gave a two count to Race. But Williams again came back a landed another Oklahoma Stampede but somehow Race would not stay down. Race again gained the edge land brutal head butts, and an indian deathlock that Williams was able to reach the ropes to break the hold. A diving headbutt from the top rope and Piledriver finally was to much and Williams was pinned.
WINNER: HARLEY RACE 5:41

MATCH #7 BRYAN DANIELSON VS "RAVISHING" RICK RUDE W/ BOBBY "THE BRAIN" HEENAN
Could Danielson keep his unbeat streak alive tonight, that's what the fans were wondering as this match was set to begin. Rude wasted no time giving Danielson a rake across his eyes and two brutal kicks to the stomach. Clubbing forearms to the back of the neck dropped Bryan to one knee. An attempted dropkick from Rude missed the mark giving Danielson his first chance at any offense. Multiple uppercuts and a yakuza kick flattened Rude. A missle dropkick again put Rude to the mat.An enzuigiri to the back of Rude's head had him reeling and stumbling in the ring out on his feet. A well placed yakuza kick put Rude on his back and under a pin attempt that he was able to kick out of. MMa strokes in the corner and a cross armbar was not enough to get Rude to tap. A superplex from the top rope had Rude in big trouble and Heenan scrambling around outside the ring. Hennig who was on his way out was caught by the ref and sent right back to the dressing room even as Heenan pleaded his case. A series of kicks on Rude set up the Cattle Mutilation and a huge win for Danielson. All thru the last half of the match Rude only managed acouple offensive moves. Danielson remains undefeated.
WINNER: BRYAN DANIELSON 6:44

MATCH #8 MAGNUM TA VS "MILLION DOLLAR MAN" TED DIBIASE { NO ONE ALLOWED AT RINGSIDE}
Magnum looked very angry before this match even started. No doubt remembering his last encounter with DiBiase. This match was kind of a dud as Magnum controlled the entire match up. He did need three Belly To Belly Suplexes to put DiBiase away.
WINNER: MAGNUM TA

Card #8 would have been one to see!

I'm hoping to see a Thesz/Danielson dream match at some point in the future.

Card #8 in Buffalo was fun, I had a great time.
For real another solid card in line with the others, it's good to see Magnum T.A. with the win over DiBiase...

[cruefan68]

I agree with the others that Card #8 was a great one for the fans in Buffalo. I am anxiously awaiting the news about the huge star that is signed plus the title tournaments. Magnum T.A. pulled off a huge one-sided win in the main event over Ted Dibiase. Danielson vs. Rude was great as was Race vs. Williams. The dice might not be favoring "Dr. Death" right now but he isn't going down without a fight. Looking forward to the next show.
