BLACK HOLD SUN
Deimos
2087
A red hot crowd was ready to rock as the ring announcer came out to read out the card for the night. A short video package played building up the big fights, then we went straight into the action...
Omega vs Duke of Destruction
Omega put up a good fight and almost finished the Duke off with a cosmic war dance, but Duke fought back and sunk in the submission- with the legend passing out instead of giving up.
Duke of Destruction (2) defeats Omega (1) via GRIP OF DOOM in 12 min (★★)
Gladiators vs Space Croppers (No DQ)
The Space Croppers are proving to be kryptonite to the Gladiators. This match was a story of Massacre getting isolated from his big man partner, eventually walking into a giant Spinecracker that finished him off.
Renegade (0) defeats Massacre (2) via SPINECRACKER in 17 min (★★)
Brute (0) Renegade (0)
Lord Nexus vs Invincible Krakan (Cosmic Cage Match)
Lord Nexus looked to be in big trouble early, getting rag dolled around the cage until a spirited comeback ended with a giant Titan Drop from the top of the cage that knocked Krakan out cold.
Lord Nexus (2) defeats Invincible Krakan (1) via TITAN DROP (From the top of the cage) in 12 min (★★)
Thantos vs Wolf II
Easily the match of the night, this was a reversal from their meeting earlier in the year. Thantos dominated through most of the match, catching Wolf time and time again with the running clothesline- but never fully finishing the job. Wolf finally found his opening and would hit Thantos with two straight Savage claws to earn the victory.
Wolf (4) defeats Thantos (1) via SAVAGE FACE CLAW in 23 min (★★★)
GWF Tag Team Championship: Greek Gods (c) vs Pretty Boys
An epic squash, with Actagon sinking in the sleeper right away and Proteus knocking out Vanity before he could even get off the apron. Dominate defense couldn't even begin to describe this match.
Actagon (0) defeats Killer Queen (0) via GRECIAN SLEEPER GRIP in 3 min (DUD)
Proteus (0), Vanity (0)
MAIN EVENT: GWF Heavyweight Championship: Star Warrior (c) vs Massif
Star Warrior was all offense in this one, methodically chopping down the giant with a varied attack, keeping the big man off balance and never letting him get any momentum. But Massif was anything but an easy win- it would take 3 Nova Launches before the champ could secure the defense.
Star Warrior (0) defeats Massif (3) via NOVA LAUNCH in 16 min (★★★)
After the match both men shook hands, with Massif raising Star Warrior's hand and encouraging the crowd to celebrate his teammate’s win.

Tournament of the Stars Round 1
Deimos
2087
The tournament brackets are displayed to the crowd, with the ring announcer listing out the first round match-ups before reminding folks what the prize to the winner is... a shot at the GWF Heavyweight Championship. The crowd then erupts as a spotlight moves to a luxury box where champion Star Warrior is taking in the show...
Wolf vs Executioner
Wolf ran right through Executioner... the pinfall may have taken longer than the actual match.
Wolf (0) beat Executioner (0) via Wolf Skullcrusher in 2 min (DUD)
Thantos vs Vanity
Another early round squash. Thantos wasted no time setting Vanity up for the Masterlock, and the Pretty Boy tapped without much of a fight. Afterwards Thantos looked over to Vanity in disgust before leaving the ring without celebration.
Thantos (0) beat Vanity (0) via Masterlock in 6 min (DUD)
Massif vs Pit Viper
Pit Viper tried his best, but he couldnt get the big man off his feet, and repeated head butts and bear hugs sapped all the speed out of the flying titan, with an especially brutal head butt busting Viper open and leaving him semi-concious.
Massif (0) beat Pit Viper (1) via head butt in 12 min (★)
Lord Nexus vs Omega
Another valient effort by Omega, but the legend again struggled to get any offensive momentum, instead eating big moves he eventually couldnt get up from.
Lord Nexus (0) beat Omega (2) via TITAN DROP in 8 min (★)
Comrade Terror vs Duke of Destruction
Duke seemed to be doing a good job controlling the pace of the match, and it seemed like perhaps we would see our first upset... but the he walked right into an ATOMIC WARHEAD and poof, that was that.
Comrade Terror (0) beat Duke of Destruction (0) via ATOMIC WARHEAD in 11 min (★)
Invincible Krakan vs Brute
Krakan pulled out all the tricks to keep the larger Brute off balance, striking from distance and on the move- never letting the Gladiator's power to overcome him. The finish saw Krakan hit multiple top rope clotheslines before setting Brute up for the brutal Falling Face Slam.
Invincible Krakan (0) beat Brute (2) via FALLING FACE SLAM in 8 min (★)
Actagon vs Exo-King
The first upset comes a bit with an asterix, given Exo-KIngs low seeding based on a prolonged losing streak. The Evil Ones leader came out of the gate with a new sense of purpose- locking on the Death Vise over and over again till Actagon had no choice but to tap out.
Exo-King (0) beat Actagon (4) via DEATH VISE in 10 min (★★)
Commander Sam vs Renegade
The final match of the first round was a good one, with both men trading finishers before Commander Sam was tossed out of the ring only to re-enter and walk straight into the Spinecracker, allowing Renegade to pick up the upset.
Renegade (2) beat Commander Sam (1) via SPINECRACKER in 17 min (★★)
Round 2 Match-ups:

Tournament of the Stars Round 2
Deimos
2087
Another packed crowd as the second round of the tournament gets ready to kick off. With no major upsets, this card is stacked with big matchups- with the big buzz around a main event of Thantos vs Evil Ones leader Exo-King...
Wolf vs Renegade
Renagade put up a strong effort but Wolfs offense eventually overwelmed the Space Cropper, finishing him off with a brutal Savage Claw to pick up the win.
Wolf (1) beat Renegade (3) via SAVAGE CLAW in 16 min (★★)
Massif vs Invincible Krakan
This one looked pretty even to start, but the size advantage just proved too much, and even though Krakan kicked out of the first Volcanic Drop, he couldnt find his way out of the second...
Massif (0) beat Invincible Krakan (1) via VOLCANIC DROP (★★)
Lord Nexus vs Comrade Terror
A brutal back and forth match- Terror was in control early before Nexus made a thrilling comeback, hitting back to back Titan Drops… that the Comrade kicked out of both times. Trying to rally for a third Drop, Lord Nexus left himself open to the Atomic Warhead, and Terror moves on to the semifinals.
Comrade Terror beat Lord Nexus B via ATOMIC WARHEAD in 14 min. (★★★)
Thantos vs Exo-King
This match started mysteriously slow, with neither man really showing any sense of urgency. Then, while sitting in the corner, Thantos very obviously gave an order to Exo-King before giving the big man a powerslam and pinning him for the win. It appeared from here the order was let Thantos win...
Thantos (0) beat Exo-King (0) via power slam (DUD)
We're down to the final 4, with the semi-finals main eventing the next card...:
Tournament of the Stars Semi-Finals Card

Tournament of the Stars Round 3
Deimos
2087
Two big semi-final matches were set to main event a show that also seemed to include a match to determine The Greek Gods next challenger, and a fun Gladiators vs Federation Defense matchup...
Space Croppers vs Pretty Boys
Ton of back and forth but Killer Queen got isolated from his corner and a big atomic knee drop from Beast Rider gave the Space Croppers a second consecutive impressive win.
After the match Killer Queen shoved Vanity and walked to the back on his own.
Beast Rider (1) defeats Killer Queen (1) via atomic knee drop in 21 min (★★★)
Renegade (1), Vanity (4)
Commander Sam vs Massacre
Commander Sam started off strong but the Gladiator turned the tables and finished off the veteran with a Decapitator followed by a top rope splash for the win.
After the match Brute and Massacre put the boots to Sam until Star Warrior and Omega came out for the save, challenging the Gladiators to a match at the Tournament Finals SUPERSHOW.
Massacre (1) defeats Commander Sam (1) via Top rope splash in 8 min (★)
Semi-Finals: Wolf vs Comrade Terror
For a minute it looked like we were witnessing an upset. Terror had Wolf on the ropes, dictating the offense and nailing an Atomic Warhead... But Wolf kicked out and then shifted into a new gear, hitting back to back Savage Claw's and earning a trip to the finals.
Wolf (1) defeats Comrade Terror (2) via SAVAGE FACE CLAW in 15 min (★★)
Semi-Finals: Thantos vs Massif
A shocker of a main event. Massif looked to be holding his own against The Gamemaster until Thantos countered a running clothesline and locked in the Masterlock, wrenching as a sickening pop could be heard in the crowd, forcing the big man to tap out.
Massif was helped to the back after the match, with doctor results still pending.
Thantos (0) defeats Massif (0) via MASTERLOCK in 5 min (DUD)

Tournament of the stars, great idea!
Poor Actagon didn't get the break you predicted, still in this era Thantos is a very tough man to beat.
Should be a great final match, Wolf has never really realised his potential for me, but maybe he can do so here?
