Booker Bill GWF 2129

[TTX]

Thanks for the feedback everyone!

2127.02.42– Arcturus Parthenon, Bootes – GWF Warzone

Scorn def. Rotunda by disqualification when Rotunda runs Scorn into the ring side railing. Scorn turned some heads by surviving THE FAT LADY SINGS and later Rotunda missed her finisher but her size advantage allowed her to dominate most of the opening match of the tonight before her frustration got the best of her during a brawl on the floor. * ½

Abroz and Dialectas are introduced to the crowd and the third season of the Infinity Challenge is about to get under way.

Circus Strongmen (Gryt & Tanck) def. Leaders of the Pack (Malkuth King of the Jungle & Panther Warrior) when Tanck pinned Warrior after a death valley driver. There was some early back and forth before the reformed tandem of Gryt & Tanck took control of the action cutting off Warrior. Malkuth’s pin save was not successful and the Ani-Men take back to back losses. * ½

Shann-Ra def. Galaxian Women’s Champion She Devil to win the Title with a Snap Snare. This match was contested at an incredible fast pace and the fans were roaring after several suicide dives from Shann-Ra. Neither competitor was able to hit their finisher and one of Ra’s dives to the floor missed but she recovered and picked up the win and the title! ****

Dialectas takes the early lead in the Challenge 5 to 2.

BD Revolution (Havoc & Alpha Female) w/The Dark Menace def. Master Race (Thraxx & Zygon) when Havoc used COSMIC NIGHTMARE on Thraxx. The Master Race managed to cut off Havoc for a long stretch early in this one but the Black Death team made a strong comeback including Zygon saving his partner twice from defeat at the hands of Alpha Female before Havoc landed his finisher for the win. *** ½

Nosfera def. Retribution w/Omen with SPRING HEEL KICK. Nosfera dominated this one from bell to bell, in and out of the ring getting the win with his finisher. DUD

Titan Conflict (Tristan & Nitro) & Overtime def. Cage Rage (Anivar & The Betrayer – Death Masque) & Oracle when Tristan used ARCANA on Betrayer. All six men saw action in this one as the match went back and forth in an effort to get the upper hand but it was the speed of the Titans, and in particular Tristan, that made the difference as he caught his former partner with his finisher to get the three count (Snake Eyes!) After the match, the Titans carry on the attack sending Anivar & Oracle to the floor with dropkicks and then focus their attack on Betrayer. BAD VIBRATIONS allows the Titans to put The Betrayer onto a table and an OVERTIME RULES sends be through the wood! **

Interplanetary Champion Bishop Hell w/The Dark Menace def. Aethran Overmaster w/The Leveler by disqualification in a Non-Title Number One Contenders Match when Overmaster smashed Hell with the ring steps during a brawl on the floor. This was an absolute war that went back and forth. Both the Dark Menace and The Leveler had to cause distractions to keep the action going and at one point, Leveler used an energy blast to save Overmaster before things ended up at ringside. *****

In a Non-Title Ultimate Fight Match, Galaxian Tag Team Champions Ultimate Fighters (Clinch & Shoot) def. Military Powers (Paganax & Tharkas) when Tharkas was knocked out after back to back to back UPPERCUT KOs. The champions looked right at home in one of their signature matches against their classic foes and dominated this one from bell to bell beating both Paganax & Tharkas into a bloody mess on route to crushing victory. * ½

Betrayer is injured for seven cards. Titans are suspended for six.

Notes:
• Two cards in and Black Death has made significant inroads to taking over the GWF lead by the performance of Bishop Hell who captured the Interplanetary Championship at the Deimos Perennial and now with his wild victory tonight will meet Endgame for the Galaxian Title in a Champion v. Champion main event to the next GWF Warzone!
• Overtime and Titan Conflict has been suspended by Euritar for six fight cards for their post match attack on The Betrayer tonight. What will this mean for the Infinity Challenge? What chance does Aborz have to win with three of his team members on the sidelines for a significant amount of time?

Infinity Challenge

Mother Superior def. Deadliest of the Species by count-out. This was a wild and lengthy battle that went back and forth. Superior wrestled with desperation being the only competitor able to get any points for Abroz with her fellow Titan members suspended. Superior was able to use Feel My Pain several times to do some significant damage. Superior was only competitor able to set up a finisher but Deadliest survived MOTHER OF DESTRUCTION.

This was an epic war with both teams needing all of their pin saves to keep the action going before it was all said and done.

PSI def. Harbinger w/The Dark Menace by disqualification when Harbinger used a chair to attack PSI during a brawl on the floor. PSI was able to use his agility to keep the leader of the Black Death off balance striking several times with Momentum Equation before things spilled to the floor and Harbinger takes things too far during their ringside brawl. *

Galaxian Champion Endgame w/The Guardian def. Interplanetary Champion Bishop Hell w/The Dark Menace with a Rydeen Bomb. Endgame had the fans solidly behind him and he responded with a dominating performance shutting down the offense of his challenger completely. Even the interference of Harbinger himself could not turn the tide as Endgame executed a nogging knocker and carried on his assault. Back to back Rydeen Bombs ended it. *** ½

[Pariah]

A pretty successful night for the Black Death crew... Even though Harbinger and Bishop Hell lost their respective matches... Of course, I'm especially pleased that my Vampire brother was on the winning side of the opening bout... Nice!

Military Powers (Paganax & Tharkas) def. Legend Killers (Ensor & Payback) with a PAGAN VOID on Payback.

Dialectas & Abroz come to ringside to observe the next round of the Infinity Challenge.

Symbiosis def. Plethador w/Skwish with a Symbiotic Sleeper. Despite becoming dehydrated early on in this one the Ani-Man was able to battle move for move with his opponent and even picked up a near fall after a Two Star Salamander Splash and forced Symbiosis to ropes with his SUCTION CLAW but the power attack Symbiosis proved to be the difference. ** ½

Leaders of the Pack (Malkuth & Panther Warrior) def. Master Race (Thraxx & Zygon) with a LORD OF THE POUNCE to Zygon.

Scorn w/HelSin def. Mistress of Darkness w/Coven Black by count-out. Scorn looked to have the match won with BURNING SCORN but key interference by Black kept the action going. The action went to the floor several times and that is where it ended when Scorn power slammed Mistress onto the floor and she could not regain the ring. ** ½.

Tauran def. Anivar w/The Dark Menace by disqualification when Anivar rammed Tauran into the ring side railing. The speed of Tauran dominated the action from the bell but Anivar bailed to the floor and when Tauran followed, things escalated quickly between the former tag team partners. DUD

Havoc w/ The Dark Menace def. Aethran Overmaster w/The Leveler & Hector The Holy Brown Bear in a Tirion Triple Threat Match when Havoc used COSMIC NIGHTMARE on Hector. The action was all over the place as you would expect with Overmaster using his size to dominate at times but it was
Havoc who would sneak out the victory connecting with his finisher on Hector after all three men tore up ringside in a wild brawl. ***

Rush & Turmoil w/The Leveler def. Ultimate Fighters (Clinch & Shoot) when Rush used THE TEMPEST on Shoot. The fans in Ara witnessed a title change in just five moves as the Gladiator crushed Shoot with his finisher for the stunning three count (Snake Eyes). Patch comes out of nowhere and wallops Rush with a chair shot and then locks in a COBRA CLTUCH on Turmoil. Aethran Overmaster & Paralzye arrive but Patch and Clinch come out to meet them and Shoot smashes Rush with the chair multiple times on the leg! The fans don’t know what to think as Overmaster finally gets into the ring to break up the attack. Rush needs to be assisted from ringside by the Gladiator Team.

Mantis w/The Dark Menace def. Swarm with PREY SNARE. Swarm was obviously troubled about having to face his son inside the ring and perhaps it was that hesitation that proved costly as Swarm was pressing the attack when Mantis struck on defense and took the victory. * ½

Galaxian Tag Team Champions Rush (inj) & Turmoil w/The Leveler def. Game Masters (Thantos & Star Warrior) when Rush used THE TEMPEST on Warrior. This was an incredible battle back and forth battle that saw the Gladiators overcome the severe injury to Rush to retain the championship. A key pin save from Turmoil saved Rush from a MASTERLOCK and double table breakers to both Game Masters during the match softened them up for the finish. ****

Oracle w/The Dark Menace def. Tricks with a springboard knee strike in a Hardcore Titan Death Match. This was insanity from start to finish with action spilling to the parking lot at one point. Tricks was battered into a bloody mess (Pin 13) but it was a key distraction by The Dark Menace that saved Oracle from defeat after an AX MURDER and allowed Oracle to get the victory. *****

HelSin def. Coven Black w/The Dark Menace with a small package. This one lasted just three moves and Helsin outsmarted his enemy with a defensive counter for the three count (Snake Eyes!). Scorn hits ringside and takes out The Dark Menace much to the pleasure of the fans. It is double deathjump smashes for Black. Mistress of Darkness arrives and battles Scorn but Helsin lands another blow from the top for good measure before members of the Black Death Team are lead to the ring by Balaal. DUD

Galaxian Women’s Champion Shann-Ra def. She Devil with a MACHETE. The pace of this one had the fans on the edge of their seats bell to bell with plenty of suicide dives to the floor and back and forth action between the ropes. The finish was controversial as Ra was able to run Devil into the guardrails during a braw on the floor and then hit her finisher seconds later to retain. ****

Paralyze w/The Leveler def. Interplanetary Champion Bishop Hell w/The Dark Menace with HEART TRANSPLANT to win the title. Rush, Turmoil and Aethran Overmaster join their fellow Gladiator in the ring but the celebration is cut short by the arrival of Monolith who stares down the entire Gladiator team. DUD

Havoc w/The Dark Menace def. Galaxian Champion Endgame w/The Guardian with COSMIC NIGHTMARE to win the title! There was early controversy in this one with the referee getting knocked down for five moves but when the action continued Endgame dominated the bout and only the timely distraction of The Dark Menace saved Havoc after an ULTIMA LEAP. Havoc was able to get control during a brawl on the floor and Guardian was not able to cause a distraction for Endgame. *** 1/2

The entire Black Death team celebrates in the ring as the fans voice their displeasure.

Not happy that HelSin scored a questionable victory against my Vampire brother thanks to a flash finish... But, I'm stoked that Havoc's current hot streak has taken him all the way to the top... The Aethran Atrocity is the entire fed's COSMIC NIGHTMARE!

DUD

BD Revolution (Alpha Female & Galaxian Champion Havoc) w/The Dark Menace def. Endgame & PSI w/The Guardian when Havoc used COSMIC NIGHTMARE on Endgame. Endgame was cut off for the entire first half of the match and took a load of punishment with Alpha Female dominating the former Galaxian Champion. PSI was able to get his team back into the match and later Endgame looked to have the match won with a ROLLING FIGURE FOUR on Female but the interference of Anivar turned the momentum of the encounter. Guardian was able to cause a distraction to save Endgame once but it only delayed the outcome a few more minutes. *****

Mantis w/The Dark Menace def. Monolith with PINCER CLAMP. This was a shocker as Mantis controlled the early action picking up a near fall in the opening minute and using his finisher twice before Monolith got in some offense of his own. Mantis survived I BREAK YOU and then picked up the submission victory as the Black Death team gets off to a great start this evening. *** ½

Military Powers (Paganax & Tharkas) def. Ultimate Fighters (Clinch & Shoot) with CONCIL OF WAR on Clinic. Tharkas and Clinch wrestle the entire match and Tharkas manages to use an OBLITERATOR to set up the team’s tag team finisher for the pin. Many were surprised there was no pin save from Shoot. DUD.

Alpha Female w/The Dark Menace def. Deadliest of the Species & Rotunda in a Tirion Triple Threat Match when Female used DIRE STRAPH on Rotunda.

Galaxian Champion Havoc w/The Dark Menace def. Endgame w/The Guardian with COSMIC NIGHTMARE.
