TX FTR

Fun card TTX!

In particular I enjoyed The Natives and Asarte picking up the victories.

And Captain Crossbones of course gets it done.

Very cool.

Before the show, Encubus announced he had signed some new talents and a veteran to bolster the FTR roster.

Loot and Plunder (Captain Crossbones and Siren) defeated Power and Pride when Siren pinned Blue Chip with the Mournful Cry. Crossbones said it was time to unveil his treasure, and it was the bewitching Siren. Crossbones dominated Blue Chip for a bit before tagging in Siren who used Kore's Revenge for a nearfall and then the Mournful Cry for the win. Crossbones then told Blue Chip that revenge was his and it was so sweet.

Astarte overcame a slow start to finish off Totally Awesome with a bear hug. Awesome dominated early and got a cover following Monster Machine but eventually Astarte managed a reversal and hit Left For Dead On Bemis. He kept rolling with True Future Shock and then clamped on a bear hug. Axe tried to distract the referee but could not and Awesome gave up.

Vacant defeated Scimitar with the Spine Cracker. Scimitar dominated early but he simply could not finish off his opponent. Vacant grabbed control and battered Scimitar down with a spear and a chop before locking in the Spine Cracker. After the match, Murtak and Mass attacked and Scimitar joined in before a mysterious tag team appeared and ran off the villains.

Evil Henchmen crushed Birds of a Feather following the Atomic Warhead on Talon to retain the FTR Tag Team Titles. King Tux and Red Talon had earned a title shot from an earlier victory against the Henchmen. The Birds got a good start on Disciple but once Swerve tagged in, the Henchmen dominated the rest of the match. Tux tried to make a save only to accidentally Belly Flop Talon and Terror got the easy three count.

Duke of Destruction and Moonlight fought to a double disqualification when The Conquerors and Scimitar and Red Rising and eventually a mystery tag team came to the ring and the referee threw the match out. It looked like Moonlight would win the belt but suddenly the brawling on the floor spilled into the ring and the referee called the match a double disqualification to Moonlight's protests that Duke's team had started the fight.

Conquerors of the Galaxy bested Natives of Castilex with the Conqueror's Flag on Ygorr. Krud took a major beating although the Natives gave Mass a couple big shots though Murtak stopped any pin attempt. Krud made a late tag and Ygorr took control until he went for a diving headbutt off the top only for Mass to raise a huge boot knocking him silly. Mass then tagged in Murtak who used the Flag to win and then raised his in victory.

Mayham pinned Red Rising following the Animan Ax Handle. Rising got off to such a fast start he forgot to cover his opponent. Mayham kept coming back as Rising would try and overpower his opponent which never quite worked out. It looked like it could still turn around even after a Leap of Doom and Bacon Bits but eventually Mayham grabbed control and hit the Ax Handle and covered for the win. After the match, Rising popped up and asked when the match would start.

The mystery team was announced by Lord Nexus as a new Titan team trained by DragonMaster and Scion Nexus. Titan Force edged Sound of Fury with Metal Fatigue on Pequeno. Axe and Pequeno battered Live Wire around but could not finish him off. He tagged into Adamantine who kept Chavo from tagging out before catching him in his finisher. Live Wire tripped Axe to stop a save and Pequeno passed out giving Titan Force the victory in their debut.

Great show Troy. Good to see Loot and Plunder pick up a win.

[Pariah]

Hope to see a rematch between Moonlight and Duke... And the unveiling of so much new talent was very exciting... Good times!

For those interested in Siren and Titan Force, I put a thread in COTG creations for them.

Hey TTX!

Have to echo Crossbones here - Very cool seeing the captains team emerge triumphantly - Loot and Plunder is an absolutely killer name by the way.

Great seeing Mayham with the victory as well as The Conquerors of the Galaxy.

Enjoyed the new suprise Titan Tag Team - great twist.

Very strong card despite there not being a penguin victory 😊

[TTX]

Yeah, hopefully we can get King Tux's true partner in FTR someday and I can run with that.

Captain Crossbones won an 18 man battle royal eliminating Faller for the victory.
Crossbones used Siren and a temporary alliance with Murtak and Mass to his advantage to pull out the win here. Faller did eliminate five wrestlers but after getting rid of Murtak and Mass, Crossbones took advantage and dumped him to the floor.

Astarte and Vacant defeated Evil Henchmen in a non title match when Astarte pinned DOT after Swerve accidentally elbow dropped his partner. The Henchmen just seemed off their game here as Astarte and Vacant kept frustrating them with a series of big moves. Swerve tried to make a save after Astarte hit Terror with a running power slam but ended up drilling his partner instead. Vacant speared Swerve to the floor and Astarte scored the three count.

Duke of Destruction edged Moonlight with some KO punches. Everyone was banned from ringside as Moonlight just wanted revenge. She nearly had it but Duke just would not stay down. Eventually, she got frustrated and lost her concentration just long enough for Duke to hit some big punches with his iron fist to gain the pin.

Four Corners Elimination Non Title match
Vacant pinned Captain Crossbones after a spear.
Duke of Destruction pinned Vacant with the Grip of Doom after Vacant wiped himself out after a deathjump.
Astarte pinned Duke of Destruction after Moonlight pushed Duke off the top rope allowing Astarte to hit True Future Shock for the win. Astarte demanded a title match on the next show.

Really enjoyed the layout of that last show with the first three contests acting as qualifiers for the main event... And a huge triumph for Astarte... Fun stuff!

[Bri]

Have to agree 100% with Pariah TTX.

Nicely set up for sure.

Great seeing The Cap'n take the battle royal but Asarte definitely earned himself a title shot I'd say.

Very cool!
