Champions Crusade
02.01.2133
Commissioner Encubus: Champions Crusade is finally here and tonight the FTR will have both FTR Single Champion and FTR Tag Team Champions. I have chosen four of the best tag teams in the FTR to compete in a tournament for the FTR Tag Team Championships… the four teams are Villains Inc., Mad Maxus, Divine Judgement, and Penguins on Ice.
There has be been a stipulation added to the Powerslam vs. Captain Crossbones match, as it is now a Black Sails Match. Both competitors will battle it out on a pirate ship and the winner must hang their opponent from the top of the mast. This stipulation was requested by Captain Crossbones two days ago.
Disciple of Terror has been petitioning the FTR Board of Directors and myself to ban the tape fist and boxing fighting of Billy Jo Boxer. In other wrestling organizations they may ban the use of closed fists, but the FTR is not like those other organizations. We want those with different and unique fighting styles here in the FTR competing against one another. It’s these different fighting styles that make for an exciting match, wrestler versus boxer match! So, it’s the decision of the FTR Board of Directors and myself that Billy Jo Boxer will compete against Disciple of Terror for the FTR Championship.
Let’s get to our opening match between two underdogs… Ursa Major vs. Uranus!
Opening MatchUrsa Major vs. UranusUranus defeated Ursa Major with a Gordian Twist at 6:48- These two wrestlers tried to put on a good match, but the crowd just refused to give them a chance and chanted “This is boring” and “You suck!” They got through the match with Uranus pulling out the victory.
Galactic Punisher vs. EgoEgo defeated Galactic Punisher with a TERMINATION at 14:22- The crowd settled down and got into this match as it was more brutal.
