(let's try this again)

THE GALACTIC WRESTLING OBSERVER
By Dave Meltzstar

THE GWF, FSN AND VX PROMOTIONS MAKE GALACTIC NEWS
Negotiations between the Galaxian Wrestling Federation, Filsinger Sports Network and VX Promotions have finally brought forth fruition. Beginning on January 5, 2087, the three entities will bring GWF Wrestling action to your holovision screens every Saturday night with a new program entitled GWF Saturday Night Special. One hour of exciting wrestling action featuring your favorite combatants like Commander Sam, Invincible Krakan, Omega, Star Warrior and, of course, the Galaxian Heavyweight Champion Thantos. To commemorate the very first episode, it has been announced that Thantos will defend that title against the man he took it from, Omega.

COMMENTARY TEAM DISCUSSIONS
Contract signings are in the works for the announcer team for GWF Saturday Night Special. VX Promotions have reached out to former Galaxian Heavyweight Champion Morpheus as well as rising young Gravity Ball announcer Schoni Tovany. Rumor has it a female personality will be added to the team as well. "Her presence will add diversity as well as attract a broader female audience and make them feel welcome. And her physical appearance won't hurt with the 18-35 male demographic either." Representing the GWF, Omega said, "we are requiring the woman to have an extensive knowledge in the sport of professional wrestling as well. We don't want a pretty face who doesn't know what she is talking about.:

HAS WOLF GONE ROGUE?
The unpredictable Gladiator known as Wolf has reportedly had a falling out with his partners Brute and Massacre. Details are sketchy on the cause of the breakup but anonymous insiders have laid blame at the feet of the Evil Gamemaster, Thantos. Reportedly, Thantos tried to change Wolf's wrestling style and that did not sit well with the Ultimate Loner. Others have suggested Thantos is afraid of Wolf and was trying to eliminate him as a threat. A notion that one particular member of our staff, a proud Wolf Hater, completely dismissed as nonsense.

CALL ME VANITY
The wrestler formerly known as Natural Man, has abandoned his team and gone solo. Well, sort of. He has been seen in the company of newcomer Killer Queen. Killer Queen, of course, is a part of this new team known as the Evil Ones and is suspected of being enhanced by illegal robotic parts. Vanity, as Natural Man now calls himself, wasn't interested in talking about the Neptunian Space-Croppers, the team he abandoned, but about this alleged female announcer they are trying to recruit. "I hope she is pretty. I know she is not as pretty as me. That will never be possible. But she has to be pretty to be allowed to interview the Lady's Champion Vanity."

DEIMOS PERENNIAL IS COMING
VX Promotions gave us an exclusive teaser that will whet the appetite of all wrestling fans. "The event is called Deimos Perennial," a spokesman said. "It will take place on Sunday January 27 at the Deimos Intergalactic Arena." As for any other details, the spokesman said, "you will have to watch GWF Saturday Night Special to get that information."

GWF SATURDAY NIGHT SPECIAL
JANUARY 5, 2087

ST: Welcome to Saturday Night Special! I'm Schoni Tovany alongside the legendary Morpheus and we are excited to bring to you the Galaxian Wrestling Federation. The major league of professional wrestling!

M: And tonight, Thantos will retire the washed-up has-been know as Omega.

ST: Fans, I apologize for my broadcast colleague. This is a title match. Not a retirement match. Susan McDuff is standing by with Omega right now.

SM: Thank you, Schoni. It's great to be a part of the team! And I want to personally thank you, Omega, for making all of this possible.

O: It's the fans that have made this possible. Wrestling fans across the galaxy are the reason professional wrestling has become the top sport and the GWF has become the top federation.

SM: Oh, wait just a minute. Thantos. Thantos is joining us rather uninvitedly and...

T: Calm down, Susie Q. I'm not here to end the career of Old-Mega. At least not yet. I just wanted to make sure the most important person to make professional wrestling the greatest sport in the galaxy gets the credit he deserves. That would be me. The Evil Gamemaster. The Galaxian Heavyweight Champion. Me. Thantos. Now, tonight, Omega, I love that you are challenging me for my championship belt. I get to show the entire galaxy that the present is much better than the past.

O: Susan McDuff, no matter what happens in the match tonight, the fans will be the true winners tonight.

ST: There you have it fans. Tonight's main event. Thantos defends the Galaxian Heavyweight Championship against Omega.

M: Speaking of fans, Schoni Tovany, have you subscribed to Susan McDuff's Lone Fans Account?

ST: Will you stop?

THE FLYING TITANS VS THE EVIL ONES
Pit Viper pinned Death Knight after hitting the VENOM BLAST.
WINNERS OF THE MATCH: THE FLYING TITANS

ST: What a way to start our first show. Six of our top stars in one match.

LN: Thank you, Schoni. We are excited to bring the top Three-Man Tag Team to the GWF. Now, we have a score to settle with the Society of Death. You see the mask Pit Viper is wearing. Because of a hideous attack by Mutant and Ghengis Khan. Under the orders of that no good Invincible Krakan. Well, we get our shot at revenge at Deimos Perennial '87. Three against three.

ST: That's right, wrestling fans. Deimos Perennial '87 is the greatest event in GWF history to date. It will take place live on Sunday, January 26 and it will be available right here on this holovision station.

M: And, if the Titans are indeed facing Krakan's crew, we may see Lord Nexus and Pulsar having to hide scars with masks as well.

MASSIF VS MUTANT
Mutant was led to the ring by Invincible Krakan but Massif was accompanied by Commander Sam. Sam"s presence deterred Krakan from any interference, even though the Earth veteran was there more as a coach than a second. Massif hit the VOLCANIC DROP to get the pin.
WINNER OF THE MATCH: MASSIF

SM: Great win for the big guy in his debut, Sam.

CS: It was indeed! The GWF has a couple of powerful wrestlers competing in its ranks and Massif ranks right up there at the top.

MASSIF: Now, Susan McDuff, I know I have a target on my back. Seeing how I am the rookie of the Federation Defense Fighters. But at the Deimos Perennial, I have my own target. His name is Exo-King. I want to show him that not even robotic implants will make him stronger than me.

MORPHEUS: The lies! There are no robotic implants in any of the members of The Evil Ones.

ST: Are you blind? Hold on. We have company. Brute and Massacre are coming to the ring. Now, they will be challenging the Greek Gods for the Galaxian Tag Team Titles at Deimos Perennial 87. But what brings them to the ring now?

BRUTE: Wolf! Get out here! You do what you are told or suffer the consequences!

WOLF: OWOOOOOOO!

ST: Wolf coming to the ring. By himself.

MORPHEUS: Only a complete idiot would face Brute and Massacre one-on-two.

BRUTE: You got two choices, Wolf! One. Do as we tell you to do. Two. I kick your ass in this ring right now!

WOLF: With or without a ref!

WOLF VS BRUTE
The two begin brawling. Massacre leaves the ring. A ref comes in and controls no order but he does call for the bell when Wolf locks the SAVAGE FACE CLAW on Brute.
WINNER OF THE MATCH: WOLF

ST: Now hold on! Massacre has hit the ring! Massacre pounding on Wolf. Wolf fighting back! Now, it's two on one!

MORPHEUS: I told you, Schoni Tovany. Wolf is an idiot! Trying to take those two on by himself.

ST: Listen to the roar from these fans! It's the Greek Gods! Actagon and Proteus are in the ring.

MORPHEUS: Its three against two. Those cowards won't face the Gladiators in a fair fight!

ST: You're serious, aren't you. And Brute and Massacre have left the ring. The Greek Gods are offering their hand to Wolf. And Wolf just turned and walked away.

MORPHEUS: I would say he's smart for staying away from the Geeks, but no wrestler can be an island unto himself forever.

ST: Our main event is next!

GALAXIAN HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPIONSHIP MATCH
THANTOS(C) VS OMEGA
Thantos made Omega submit to the MASTERLOCK.
WINNER OF THE MATCH AND STILL GALAXIAN HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION: THANTOS

MORPHEUS: And that's all she wrote for the most self-serving overrated wrestler in history! Take that, Omega.

ST: Thantos is not releasing the hold. He's trying to end Omega's career!

MORPHEUS: I told you this was Omega's retirement match.

ST: Here comes Star Warrior! Thantos rolled out of the ring. Omega may be hurt. Thantos is still the champion and we are out of time!

GWF SATURDAY NIGHT SPECIAL
JANUARY 12, 2087

The show opens with the closing moments of last week's main event between Thantos and Omega. Schoni Tovany is calling the play.
"Omega has submitted to the MASTERLOCK. Thantos is refusing to break the hold! Thantos is going to end Omega's career. Wait just a minute! Star Warrior has just hit the ring. Star Warrior coming to his father's aid! Thantos has rolled out of the ring."

The scene cuts to Schoni Tovany and Morpheus at the announcer position.
ST: Welcome to GWF Saturday Night Special! I'm Schoni Tovany alongside Morpheus and last week we saw Thantos attempt to end the career of the legendary Omega!
M: I think he might have succeeded, Schoni Tovany!
ST: I can tell you he succeeded in incurring the wrath of Star Warrior. Star Warrior has these prerecorded comments for Thantos.
SW: That's a low even for you, Thantos. Trying to break my father's leg. Trying to cripple the very man who got you into this sport. But, I am not an old man who is in the Twins of his career. I am in my prime. I am also the number one contender for the Galaxian Heavyweight Championship. And I have just been informed that VX Promotions has decided that the main event at Deimos Perennial 87 will be you defending your Galaxian Heavyweight Championship against me.

ST: A huge announcement right there!
M: So what he is saying is that VX Promotions is run by Omega's lackeys. Did Thantos agree to this? Was he even informed of this decision beforehand?
ST: Let's go to the ring for our first match.

VANITY VS PULSAR
The experience edge is the difference as Vanity gets the pin following the PULVERIZE.
WINNER OF THE MATCH: VANITY

MCDUFF: Vanity is joining me now.

VANITY: Control yourself, Miss McDuff. I know it's hard being around the most beautiful specimen in the galaxy but I must request that you show restraint in my presence.

MCDUFF: I will be sure to behave myself. I have just been informed that you will be competing at Deimos Perennial 87.

VANITY: Obviously. Vanity equals ratings. The entire female population of the galaxy will be watching Deimos Perennial 87 because they want to see me.

MCDUFF: It will be the debut of your new tag team with Killer Queen.

VANITY: The future Galaxian Tag Team Champions!

MCDUFF: You will be facing your former friends Renegade and Beast-Rider. And it looks like Killier Queen has joined us.

KQ: Will Beast-Rider's pet creatures be barred from ringside? They better be barred from ringside. They are ugly. And they smell! I don't like this, Vanity. They creep me out!

MCDUFF: Now you know how the rest of us feel about you!

Vanity and Killier Queen leave the interview area as Vanity tries to calm his partner down.

ST: That's another match added to the Deimos Perennial 87 broadcast.

MORPHEUS: Killer Queen has a valid argument. Those things that Beast-Rider rides to the ring are an unfair distraction.

ST: It's time for our next match.

MASSIF AND COMMANDER SAM VS EXECUTIONER AND GHENGIS KHAN
The FDF team turned the tables on the cheating villains. It was Ghengis Khan who inadvertently distracted the referee, allowing Massif and Sam to perform a double atomic drop on Executioner. Massif then made the cover for the 1-2-3.
WINNERS OF THE MATCH: MASSIF AND COMMANDER SAM

MORPHEUS: Illegal double team! Cheaters!

ST: Susan McDuff is standing by with the winning team.

MCDUFF: Congratulations gentlemen. Massif, you picked up another win. You look ready for your match with Exo-King. And, Commander Sam, you face Comrades Terror at Deimos Perennial 87.

SAM: Comrade Terror. We are not strangers to each other. You are my toughest opponent I have had to deal with, outside of Morpheus and Omega. But you are also a Cygnusian terrorist. An enemy of the United States of America! And I will never stop fighting against cosmic terrorists like yourself! U! S! A! U! S! A! U! S!A!

ST: We are ready for our next match.

THANTOS: We'll have the next match when I say we are having the next match! Star Warrior! Omega! Still using backstage politics to keep yourselves on top and try to hold me down? Well, that doesn't work for me, brother. Just remember, this is your fault!

COMRADE TERROR VS RENEGADE
This match never had a chance to get started. Thantos and his henchman jumped Renegade and the two villains gave the Neptunian a beatdown until Star Warrior and Commander Sam ran into the ring and chased them away.
WINNER OF THE MATCH AS A RESULT OF A DISQUALIFICATION: RENEGADE

MORPHEUS: Omega still trying to keep other wrestlers buried so his son can stay on top.

TS: We have a huge main event for you tonight! But first....

A replay shows The Greek Gods running in to help Wolf fight off the Gladiators of Aethra only for Wolf to snub their offer of a handshake.

TS: At Deimos Perennial 87, the Greek Gods defend that Galaxian Tag Team Championships against the Gladiators of Aethra. Tonight, the brains of each team face off in our main event.

ACTAGON VS MASSACRE
Maybe this could be considered an upset. Massacre seems like the one who would be better suited for tag team wrestling but he fell to the GRECIAN SLEEPER GRIP.
WINNER OF THE MATCH: ACTAGON

TS: The Greek Gods are celebrating in the ring. That's all the time we have this week.

GWF SATURDAY NIGHT SPECIAL
JANUARY 19, 2087

The show opens with a replay from last week that saw Star Warrior and Commander Sam save Renegade from a two-on-one assault by Thantos and Comrade Terror.

ST: Hello wrestling fans. I'm Schoni Tovany and we are just one week away from Deimos Perennial 87 which will be broadcast live right here on the Filsinger Sports Network. We have a great hour of action tonight with a blockbuster main event as the Galaxian Heavyweight Champion Thantos teams with the Cosmic Terrorist Comrade Terror to take on Star Warrior and Commander Sam.

MORPHEUS: And right now, thanks to me, we are being joined by the Evil Gamemaster himself! Welcome Thantos.

Thantos walks out to a chorus of boos that puts a sinister smile on his scarred face. Thantos shakes Morpheus" hand and then takes the microphone.

THANTOS: I give very little credit for my success to anyone other than myself. However, Morpheus, I do have to thank you for opening my eyes to the vile nepotism that runs through the veins of Omega and Star Warrior. When I was in the hospital after the attack on my face, who was it who showed me how Star Warrior had left me to be scarred. How Omega sat back and watched. How they wanted me out of the way so that Star Warrior could be the heir to the throne. It was you, Morpheus. You opened my eyes to what they had planned. And it was I. Thantos. The Evil Gamemaster. Who freed the GWF from the tyranny of Omega. Andy for that I am labeled the villain. By mindless sheep manipulated by the p.r. machine that is controlled by Omega. But that all ends at Deimos Perennial 87. I will put you down, Star Warrior, and expose you and your father once and for all for the frauds that you are.

MASSIF VS DEATH KNIGHT
The awesome rookie continued to impress, taking Death Knight down with the VOLCANIC DROP.
WINNER OF THE MATCH: MASSIF

MCDUFF: Impressive win once again, Massif.

MASSIF: Well, thank you, ma"am. I feel honored to be a part of the Federation Defense Fighters and any victory over a member of the Evil Ones is a good day. I heard Thantos running down Omega. Omega has been a great mentor and important part of my career so far and I will always have his back. Now, at Deimos Perennial 87, I have a huge match against Exo-King. I propose that, next week. We have a warmup match. Omega and myself against Exo-King and Death Knight.

ST: Wow. What a match that will be next week! We are now being joined by Star Warrior.

MORPHEUS: Think I'll go get a Maffei Burger. You can talk to the snot-nosed punk.

SW: Coward! I have to be honest with you, Schoni Tovany. I'm disappointed but not surprised that Morpheus was the one who put those thoughts in Thantos' head. He was always jealous of my father and left the GWF because of bitterness. Thantos. There is no turning back now. You chose your path. Now you must face the consequences of that choice. At Deimos Perennial 87, I will bring the Galaxian Heavyweight Championship back to the family that made it a prestigious title. And not a tainted one.

INVINCIBLE KRAKAN VS BEAST-RIDER
Krakan sets the tone for his team heading into Deimos Perennial 87. He took Beast-Rider out with a knife-edge.
WINNER OF THE MATCH: INVINCIBLE KRAKAN

MCDUFF: Invincible Krakan. You...

KRAKAN: Silence! Invincible Krakan will not be interviewed by a lowly female.

Krakan walks over and takes a microphone from Morpheus.

KRAKAN: She can go interview Lord Nexus. Let inferiors talk to inferiors. I am Invincible Krakan and I am not going to be degraded by the GWF like this! Flying Titans. At Deimos Perennial 87. We will make all of you look like Thantos. Just like we did Pit Viper.

MCDUFF: Why that no good....Well, hello gentlemen! I am being joined now by the Galaxian Tag Team Champions Acts and Proteus. The Greek Gods!

PROTEUS: Mayhap, Invincible Krakan is simply intimidated by a creature so fair.

MCDUFF: Oh. My....

ACTAGON: To business at hand. Deimos Perennial 87. We face the toughest challenge of our careers. We must defend the Galaxian Tag Team Titles against the Gladiators of Aethra. Brute and Massacre. We respect their abilities. But cannot allow the Aethrans to possess these belts. The ramifications would be too horrific to comprehend.

LORD NEXUS VS EXO-KING
Lord Nexus did one better, getting the pinfall victory over the King of the GWF with the TITAN DROP.
WINNER OF THE MATCH: LORD NEXUS

NEXUS: Susan McDuff. I would be honored to be interviewed by you. Invincible Krakan! You are a scumbag. Vile and disgusting. You will be brought down. Beginning at Deimos Perennial 87. We have a three man tag match. You will find out the Flying Titans are better wrestlers, a better team and, more importantly than that. We are Titans!

THANTOS AND COMRADE TERROR VS STAR WARRIOR AND COMMANDER SAM
The Evil Gamemaster manipulated the match as only he can, keeping himself from being in the ring with Star Warrior throughout the match. Terror got the duke with the ATOMIC WARHEAD on Sam.
WINNERS OF THE MATCH: THANTOS AND COMRADE TERROR

ST: We'll see you next week!

GWF SATURDAY NIGHT SPECIAL
JANUARY 26, 2087

The show opens with Thantos standing alone inside an undisclosed area.

THANTOS: Star Warrior. Filsinger Sports Network. Deimos Intergalactic Arena. Tomorrow night, you will all gather together and put your faith and hope in Star Warrior. To overcome the odds and become the Galaxian Heavyweight Champion for the first time in his career. Tomorrow night is when dreams come to an end. The Deimos Intergalactic Arena is where reality crushes hope and faith. For tomorrow night at Deimos Perennial 87, I will show the entire galaxy why Thantos is the Galaxian Heavyweight Champion. For as long as I want to be.

The scene cuts to Schoni Tovany and Morpheus.

ST: Welcome to Saturday Night Special! Tomorrow night, right here on the Filsinger Sports Network, we will bring to you Deimos Perennial 87! We are looking forward to the greatest night in professional wrestling history. But what a show we have for you tonight. Culminating in our main event this evening. Proteus goes one-on-one with Brute in a preview of tomorrow night's tag team championship match. Plus, Massif teams with Omega to take on Exo-King and Death Knight. But right now, we have Invincible Krakan leading Mutant to the ring for our first bout.

MUTANT VS PULSAR
With Krakan at ringside to keep him focused, Mutant stayed in control, avoided being disqualified and made Pulsar submit to the TEMPLE GRINDER.
WINNER OF THE MATCH: MUTANT

Invincible Krakan led Mutant, without a word, past Susan McDuff and headed over to talk to Morpheus.

KRAKAN: Now, you understand, Invincible Krakan could have told Mutant to hold Pulsar in the TEMPLE GRINDER forever. But there is a greater message to be sent tomorrow night by ending the career of a Titan at Deimos Perennial 87. With Mutant and Ghengis Khan, Invincible Krakan will....where. Where are you going?

Mutant wandered off back to Susan McDuff's area. The red-headed female looked rather uncomfortable as Mutant seemes by the microphone she held. After several seconds, Mutant cut his own promo on Deimos Perennial 87.

MUTANT: Braaagh! Glukkk! Blegh!

Krakan then retrieved Mutant and led him to the back.

After a commercial break, the show returned with Star Warrior standing alone in an interview area.

SW: You want to know what the most disappointing thing is? Thantos never needed to do what he did. Look at what you have accomplished. Galaxian Heavyweight Champion. You proved not only that you can be a great wrestler but that you are a great wrestler. Alas, you tarnished it all. Your legacy. Your friends. Your mentor. You and you alone did that. You were the one who made it personal. And it will be your own flaws. As a man. That will be your downfall. Tomorrow night. At the Deimos Intergalactic Arena. Deimos Perennial 87. The end of the Thantos Reign of Terror in the GWF!

MASSIF AND OMEGA VS EXO-KING AND DEATH KNIGHT
The weak spot in Massif's armour is revealed! His loyalty and compassion for his mentor Omega. Omega was caught in the DEATH VISE and refused to give up. Concerned that his partner could be a serious injured, Massif threw in the towel from his corner.
WINNERS OF THE MATCH: EXO-KING AND DEATH KNIGHT

ST: Omega is hurting as he is helped from the ring.

MORPHEUS: Maybe this will finally retire Old-Mega.

Exo-King joins Susan McDuff at ringside.

E-K: Silence, peasants and kneel before your king! Tomorrow night, Massif, you will learn who the strongest wrestler in the GWF is.

Fans began chanting "Ro-Botic Parts! Ro-Botic Parts! Ro-Botic Parts!"

E-K: Silence! Next week, I will announce a royal decree that will stop this Robotic Parts chant. Tomorrow night, I will make Massif surrender to his own pain just like he surrendered for Omega. And Death Knight will retire the legendary Omega.

The show cuts to a dark room where Wolf paces back and forth alone.

W: Tomorrow night at Deimos Perennial 87, I will take out Executioner. Then. Thantos. Star Warrior. Whichever one of you who leaves the Deimos Intergalactic Arena with the Galaxian Heavyweight Championship, I will be on the hunt for you. OWOOOOOOO!

RENEGADE VS VANITY
Renegade toned it down and made sure to wrestle tonight. This led to Vanity submitting to the SPINECRACKER.
WINNER OF THE MATCH: RENEGADE

Killer Queen helped Vanity out of the ring. Vanity could be heard crying in pain. "My back is broken. Help me. Queen! I can't walk!"

ST: Tomorrow night, at Deimos Perennial 87, the Greek Gods will defend the Galaxian Tag Team Championship against the Gladiators of Aethra. Our main event is a preview of that match and it's next.

PROTEUS VS BRUTE
Two weeks ago, Actagon put Massacre down with the GRECIAN SLEEPER GRIP. Tonight, Brute evened the score with the DECAPITATOR.
WINNER OF THE MATCH: BRUTE

TS: Tomorrow night! Deimos Perennial 87! Don't miss out.

DEIMOS PERENNIAL 87

ST: Hello wrestling fans! We are coming to you live from the Deimos Intergalactic Arena. It's Deimos Perennial 87. The most anticipated event in the new era of professional wrestling. You are watched courtesy of the Filsinger Sports Network. I'm Schoni Tovany alongside wrestling legend Morpheus and what a night this promises to be.

MORPHEUS: The last time a wrestling event was this important, Schoni Tovany, was the night I became Galaxian Heavyweight Champion. Tonight, Thantos will solidify himself as the Greatest Galaxian Heavyweight Champion since the time I held that belt.

ST: Exo-King is leading Death Knight to the ring for our opening match. Susan McDuff is standing by with Omega.

MORPHEUS: Nobody wants to hear anything from that old geezer. Less than five minutes in and we are already putting the audience to sleep.

MCDUFF: Despite the feelings expressed by Morpheus, we are all delighted to hear from you.

OMEGA: Thank you, Susan. Once again, however, it is I who want to thank the wrestling fans for their support. Without them, there would be no Deimos Perennial. I fought for many years for profit wrestling to become an accepted form of athletic competition but it was the fans who got us where we are now. Today marks just another milestone in the Galaxian Wrestling Federation.

MORPHEUS: Don't break your arm patting yourself on the back. Old-Mega would take credit for water being wet.

ST: Let's go to our first match.

OMEGA VS DEATH KNIGHT
Despite suffering the DEATH VISE the night before, Omega dug down deep enough to hit the TOMAHAWK THRUST and pinned Death Knight.
WINNER OF THE MATCH: OMEGA

ST: The fans giving Omega a nice ovation.

MORPHEUS: Thanks for the memories, old man. Now go play dominoes somewhere.

A video package sums up the feud between the Flying Titans and the Society of Death.

THE FLYING TITANS VS THE SOCIETY OF DEATH
Teamwork was on the side of the Titans as they forced their violent opponents to wrestle instead of brawl. Pulsar ended the match with the WHIRLWIND on Mutant.
WINNERS OF THE MATCH: THE FLYING TITANS

MCDUFF: I am being joined by Vanity and Killer Queen.

VANITY: This is not fair! Did you see what Renegade did to me last night? I need a massage. It's your lucky day, Susan McDuff. You can have the honor of rubbing my back before my match.

MCDUFF: Sadly for me, there is not enough time. Your match is next and the Space-Croppers are already in the ring.

VANITY AND KILLER QUEEN VS THE NEPTUNIAN SPACE-CROPPERS
Stealing the spotlight in the undercard, these two teams went all out. Unfortunately for the Space-Croppers, their fan support seemed more anti-Vanity than actually for them. Renegade pinned Vanity after an atomic drop.
WINNERS OF THE MATCH: THE NEPTUNIAN SPACE-CROPPERS

Killer Queen helped Vanity to the back as the fans heckled the flamboyant pair.

COMRADE TERROR VS COMMANDER SAM
With a section of the audience occupied by Cygnusians, Terror was the most cheered villain of the night. He rewarded his supporters with a perfectly executed ATOMIC WARHEAD.
WINNER OF THE MATCH: COMRADE TERROR

MORPHEUS: Sam can go play dominoes with Omega in the retirement home.

WOLF VS EXECUTIONER
The biggest mixed reaction from the crowd belonged to Wolf. While some find the True Loner to be fresh and exciting, others find him moody and whiny. One fan in front held up a sign that read: FLEA-BITTEN MUTT. The match itself was nothing special with Executioner going down to the SAVAGE FACE CLAW.
WINNER OF THE MATCH: WOLF

Exo-King came out and demanded the entire crowd bow and acknowledge him as the King of Wrestling. The fans cheered as Omega came out with Massif. Omega then had a seat to watch the match and never once got involved.

MASSIF VS EXO-KING
The big rookie might be the most popular member of the Federation Defense Fighters. There was a huge pop from the crowd when he hit the VOLCANIC DROP and sent the Evil Ones to an 0-3 record at Deimos Perennial.
WINNER OF THE MATCH: MASSIF

ST: The tag team titles are on the line next!

GALAXIAN TAG TEAM TITLE MATCH
THE GREEK GODS(C) VS THE GLADIATORS OF AETHRA
The Greeks beat the Glads at their own game. Despite allowing the Aethrans to turn the match into a bloody brawl, the Gods retained when Proteus pinned Brute following a flying elbow drop.
WINNERS OF THE MATCH AND STILL GALAXIAN TAG TEAM CHAMPIONS: THE GREEK GODS

A video package then hyped up the main event. The entire history of the feud was replayed, from the tag team of Star Warrior and Cosmos, to the scarring of Thantos' face by Sin, to the breaking of the Galactic Code and culminating in Thantos defeating Omega for the Galaxian Heavyweight Championship.

GALAXIAN HEAVYWEIGHT TITLE MATCH
THANTOS(C) VS STAR WARRIOR
And then this happens. Thantos reversed a sunset flip and, with two hands full of tights, held Star Warrior down for the 1-2-3.
WINNER OF THE MATCH AND STILL GALAXIAN HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMPION: THANTOS

ST: Not like this! He had the tights!

MORPHEUS: Thantos remains the champion! Tonight is a great night!

ST: Good night from the Deimos Intergalactic Arena.

THE GALACTIC WRESTLING OBSERVER
by Meltz Davestar

DEIMOS PERENNIAL A SUCCESS
Filsinger Sports Network has released the ratings for Deimos Perennial 87 and the results have the network pleased. Deimos Perennial 87 beat out every other holovision program in the 18-35 demographic and was a top five show in the 36-54 demographic. "We believe this proves when we rolled the dice on the GWF, we hit sevens and elevens," one FSN executive said. I guess that is good?

FATHER AND SON DISAGREE
It doesn't happen often but Star Warrior and Omega have a difference of opinion regarding the next Deimos show. The GWF Rankings Committee has named Wolf the new number one contender. Omega believes Star Warrior should still hold that position. "We all saw Thantos cheat to win at Deimos Perennial 87. That clearly should grant my son a rematch." Omega also states that Wolf was still a Gladiator and too wild and unpredictable to be champion. Star Warrior, however, took this news a lot better than his father. "Tights held or not, I did not get the job done at Deimos Perennial 87. A new number one contender should get the next shot. I'll earn myself a rematch." Thantos chimed in and agreed with both men. Sort of. "Star Warrior is right. He does need to earn another shot. But Omega is right, too. Wolf should never get a shot at the Galaxian Heavyweight Championship." Thantos then read off a list of names he felt deserved a title shot. That list included Beast-Rider, Pit Viper and Pulsar. "They all were winners at Deimos Perennial 87," he said in justification of his list.

THE TAG TEAM DILEMMA
The GWF Competition Committee is still undecided as to who should be the next challengers for the Galaxian Tag Team Titles. "We don't want to just have the Greek Gods facing the Gladiators of Aethra every month," one committee member said. "But, it's hard to justify ranking any other team above them." The problem is there are just a small number of official tag teams in the GWF. "We will be having several tag team matches on GWF Saturday Night Special in February that will help us decide who gets the next shot at the Greek Gods," another committee member said.
