I got a little behind so the next few are more-condensed results.
---------------------------------
SAGA
8-13
Clips were shown from the previous show where Pepper Gomez ran in to save Al Snow.
Pinnacle walked to the ring.
Killer Kowalski: "I know some people will think I hate Pepper Gomez for assaulting us last week. But I'm here to inform you that nothing could be further from the truth. I respect Pepper so much so, that I just recently finished writing a book on his life that I have with me now."
Ed Lewis: "Walter, it looks like a very short book."
Kowalski: "Would you believe it's the unabridged version? Anyway, let me read some excerpts from this. Did you know that Pepper Gomez tried out for a part as a Hobbit in the Lord of the Rings movies?"
Lewis: "Really?"
Kowalski: "Really. Too bad his stilts weren't tall enough. Why is grass different from Pepper Gomez?"
Lewis: "Why?"
Kowalski: "Smoking Pepper Gomez is a lot of fun."
Lewis: "Very true."
Kowalski: "And now, a poem; I sing the truth even when it hurts. Poor Pepper Gomez is shorter than dirt. We don't know if it's from junk food, genetics or both. His only stunts are in his growth. For these prosperities, I seek to be kept, in case Pepper collapses on the bottom step. I bring you this wisdom that only to only Pepper I can teach. The sky's the limit, and so is his reach."
Pepper Gomez walked to the ring.
Gomez: "Amigo, from the day I entered this federation, you found one way or another to insult me. I'm just here to ask one simple question. Would you please tell me why you seek to make fun of me every chance you get?"
Kowalski: "No."
Kowalski floored Gomez with a single punch. Don Leo Jonathan and Bryan Danielson held Gomez while Kowalski stood before him laughing. Suddenly, Frank Gotch, George Hackenschmidt, and The Crusher ran out and saved Gomez. The ring erupted into a brawl until GM Shon Maxx walked out.
Shon: "Whoa, whoa, hold on there a minute, gentlemen...and Kowalski. Only a complete moron...or someone from Corporate...could see that you want to rip each other to shreds. So I'm going to give you the chance. Our next Pay Per View event, on September 13th, is Only The Strong, and it's going to have teams fighting in elimination tag matches. You 8 will get the chance to face each other in the main event.
However, since it Is a main event, I think the fans deserve a little something extra for this match, so here it is. Our October event is Fright Night. Kowalski, if your team wins, you will get to defend your title, assuming you still have it by then, against Anyone you want. That means you can even give yourself an easy night by facing developmental talent. It's all up to you. Frank Gotch, if your team wins, one of You get to face Kowalski at Fright Night, and it can be Any of you! Have fun!"

I agree The dice can take victory from the jaws of defeat in my fed as well. But you sure can write a good story though.

This card would feature wrestlers from the teams facing off at Only The Strong, to be facing each other in singles or tag matches. World Champion Killer Kowalski would also be defending his title against Mike Quackenbush by special request of Kowalski.
1. Adrian Street Pinned The Destroyer after a knee life and school boy. This match lasted over 10 minutes and was a 4 star match!
Clips were shown from the previous show where D-Lo Brown was nearly pinned by Cousin Luke.
2. D-Lo Brown defeated Cousin Luke in about a minute after a Lo-Down.
Clips were shown from the previous show where Erick Stevens came to the aid of Mike Quackenbush and Brent Albright. Stevens has been added to XTC Team A for their match at Only The Strong.
3. XTC Champion Erick Stevens pinned Crossbones after a Doctor Bomb.
4. John Pesek defeated Jim Londos by submission to the Double Wristlock.
5. Ted Dibiase pinned Tom Pritchard after a Loaded Glove. After the match, the rest of Team Cornette ran out to help Pritchard when Bobby Heenan grabbed a microphone.
Heenan: "Cornette, since you outnumber my team, I had a choice. Either I could make out match at the pay per view a 3 on 3. Or I could find someone to add to our team. I decided to find a fourth man, and you'll see he joins the Heenan Family with a Bang!"
Suddenly, Diamond Dallas Page Ran out and floored Cornette with a Diamond Cutter. The rest of the Heenan family ran out and cleared the ring.
Al Snow was supposed to face One Man Gang, but Abdullah Farouk walked out with Danny Hodge and made him fight instead.
6. Al Snow defeated Danny Hodge. Farouk interfered several times and even tossed The Terrible Turk's gold brick to Hodge, but Hodge refused to use it. At one point, the referee got knocked down, and Farouk hit Snow with the gold brick. He threw Hodge on top of him, and the recovering referee counted to three. When Hodge came to, though and saw what happened on the SAGA-Tron, he told the referee, who reversed the decision.
7. Don Leo Jonathan pinned The Crusher after a Mormon Swing. After the match, Jonathan hit the Mormon Swing several more times on Crusher, and he had to be helped to the back.
Bill Apter announced that, at Only The Strong, the team of Bruiser Brody, Ox Baker, and Al Snow would face the team of One Man Gang, King Kong Bundy, and Adrian Street.
8. World Champion Killer Kowalski defeated Mike Quakenbush after a Kowalski Claw. After the match, Kowalski, Ed Lewis, Jonathan, and Bryan Danielson celebrated in the ring when GM Shon Maxx walked out.
Shon: "I've got good news for you gentlemen, and I've got bad news. The bad news is that The Crusher is really ticked off at your attack, Jonathan, and when he returns, which will be soon, he wants to get his hands on you. The good news for you though is that he won't be back until after Only The Strong. Oh, and some more bad news for you. I'm suspending you, Jonathan until Crusher returns. Your match Kowalski, is now a 3 on 3 match, but the stipulations are the same. Have fun!"

Thanks Neily and Neil v2.0!
I decided to get ahead a little bit before I got behind again. And as for getting behind, I'd like to have a valid excuse like i'm busy with work, school or something, but I just kept getting caught up in video games, and 5 more minutes turned into weeks behind in storylines (I ran the cards; I just didn't get around to posting them).
And as for the injuries (Delirious and Crusher), neither was part of a storyline, and I'm disappointed that Jonathan won't be at OTS, as I've been pushing as a monster that Gotch's team has to contend with. Oh well, he'll just have to settle for a brutal feud with Crusher.

Since I basically rushed my story lines, I thought I'd do a preview of my upcoming ppv.
--------------------------------------------------------
Only The Strong
September 12 (Yes, I know I keep changing the date. I kept forgetting what date Saturday was).
Main Event: Pinnacle (World Champion Killer Kowalski, Ed Lewis, Bryan Danielson) vs. Ground n Pound (Frank Gotch, George Hackenschmidt, Pepper Gomez).
Kowalski formed a stable that he claimed was unstoppable, with mentor Lewis, bodyguard Don Leo Jonathan, and newcomer Danielson. Gotch and Hackenschmidt seek to dispute that claim, and now both teams will clash. Already, things are heating up as Jonathan got suspended for injuring The Crusher, removing them both from the match.
Also, GM Shon Maxx has added a little stipulation to the match; If Kowalski's team wins, he can defend his title at Fright Night in October against Anyone he wants, even developmental talent. But if Gotch's team wins, any member of the team can challenge Kowalski instead.
Who will emerge on top in this epic feud?
Wildside (Regional Champion Bruiser Brody, Ox Baker, Al Snow) vs. The Power Trip (King Kong Bundy, One Man Gang, Bob Roop).
The Terrible Turk has put a price on Brody's head; 1 gold brick to the one who eliminates him once and for all. And someone has already tried to cash in. Bundy and Gang started to take credit for the vicious attack, but seeing Brody's ire, they added Roop to their mix. Roop has tried several times to deny he was involved, but Gang and Bundy keep cutting him off, complementing him for his ingenuity.
Now Brody's furious, and someone's going to pay! But will the wrong person end up the victim of Brody's wrath, and is all this simply falling into The Turk's plan?
Sherri's Sensations (Giant Baba, Tiger Mask, Jim Londos) vs. Saiko-No (Ultimate Champion Dan Severn, Jushin Liger, John Pesek).
Street Reaper has pulled the ultimate about-face! For years he claimed that he never cared if his wrestlers won or lost, only that they were pushing themselves to constantly breach their own limits. Now he wants his team to be superior. Seeing Baba's previous loss to Kowalski as a sign of weakness, he dropped Baba and gained Severn instead. Severn meanwhile, dropped Sherri, claiming he wanted someone who would push him 'as a fighter and not a lover.' Both get what they want and Reaper gains a deadly new team.
But Sherri Martel isn't done yet. Fearing that Severn has fallen under Reaper's spell, she has formed her own team, with Baba at the helm. Her goal is simply to get Severn back. But is she following a dangerously impossible dream? Reaper claims he wants a team of pure aggression. If this match proves he succeeded, it could mean grave danger, for Serri And the rest of the federation!
The Heenan Family (Rick Rude, Curt Hennig, Ted Dibiase, Dallas Page) vs. Team Cornette (Tag Team Champions Dennis Coundrey, Bobby Eaton, Stan Lane, Tom Pritchard).
Jim Cornette has joined SAGA! And his first target is Bobby Heenan. Cornette showed that this was nothing short of total war when he brought in his team, man-by-man, and struck Heenan's team with lethal guerrilla tactics. It worked as Coundrey and Eaton snatched the Tag Team Titles away from Rude and Hennig.
Heenan, however, is not backing down, and has aimed his team to dismantle Cornette's men piece-by-piece. And in, what might be called either brilliance or desperation, he has added Dallas Page as the newest member. Page was exiled from SAGA after his team lost to Heenan's, but Heenan claims he trusts Page and respects the fight he has in him. Page wanted badly to return to SAGA, and agreed to this as his way of returning.
Each team has its own philosophy for success. Heenan brought a bunch of talented individuals together to work as a team. Cornette, however, simply created one unit of 5 men (including himself) who work as a single individual.
Which philosophy will succeed?
Beauty Personified (Gorgeous George, Buddy Rose, Adrian Street) vs. The Wrestling Conduct Council (The Destroyer, Red Bastein, The Mountie).
The WCC has made its presence known, constantly fining wrestlers they feel speak or act in less-than preferable ways (They even fined fans for jeering at them). Now they target a team they define as 'too vulgar for wrestling.' Will they succeed, or will George's team pull, what they call, a 'Rocky Horror Picture Show' on the WCC?
Team XTC A (Mike Quakenbush, Brent Albright, Eddie Kingston, Koko B. Ware, Harker Dirge, XTC Champion Erick Stevens) vs. Team XTC B (Chris Hero, Claudio Castagnoli, Adam Pearce, D-Lo Brown, Sam Hayne, Crossbones).
Xtreme Total Combat Commissioner Charlie Cox has been invited to showcase some of his group's best. So he assigned two team co-captains and had them form their teams. Quackenbush and Hero are no strangers, and they seek to show the other who really is in control.
At the last minute however, the roster changed when Crossbones and Hayne serious injured Delirious, removing him from his team. Quackenbush and Albright scrambled to find a replacement, and one popped right into their faces. XTC Champion Erick Stevens came to their rescue and agreed to join the team. Stevens is currently pulling a Bill Goldberg, dismantling everyone in his path. But will he be a prime target in this match? Could the one who takes him down see a title shot in his future?
Also:
The Terrible Turk is under a special suspension. He can appear only on pay per views for the rest of the year. Will he appear at this one? Turk has talked repeatedly about 'plans,' and made note that Bruiser Brody stands in his way. He has already brainwashed Sabu, getting him to seriously injure Rob Van Dam, but his plans for Brody failed...or did they? He'll most likely be watching Brody carefully, but will he get involved?
And what about Danny Hodge? Turk's manager Abdullah Farouk won Hodge's contract in the Managers Lottery, and for weeks, he's tried to turn Hodge into an assassin like Sabu. If he succeeds, then Turk's plan may just take yet another subtle step forward.
The battle lines are indeed drawn. Which teams will emerge and who will show up their most hated foes?

SAGA Presents:
Only The Strong
The Terrible Turk appeared on the SAGA-Tron before the show started.
Turk: "I am here to continue my plans to dominate this federation. I have already eliminated Van Dam, and Bruiser Brody is now looking over his shoulder for the one I paid to dismantle him. I also persuaded Sabu to join my cause after a blood test showed that he shared DNA with ancestors that were part of the Hashshashin, ancient assassins of the Middle East. Now, following in their footsteps, he also serves my cause. But this is only the beginning. I offer 1000 gold pieces to the one who makes sure Bruiser Brody does not compete at full capacity tonight. The game begins."
1. Beauty Personified vs. The WCC.
Red Bastein and The Mountie separated Buddy Rose from his corner and beat him mercilessly before Mountie pinned him after shooting him with the Shock Stick. Gorgeous George then ran in and cleaned house, but he got disqualified for using the airplane spin on Bastein. This left Adrian Street vs. all 3 opponents. He knocked The Destroyer down and nearly had him beat, when The Mountie entered and hit him with a flying knee drop. Destroyer locked the Figure Four Leglock, and Street tapped out.
Winners: WCC (All 3 members survived!).
Danny Hodge was shown arriving, even though he wasn't involved with any of the matches. Abdullah Farouk was with him.
Farouk: "You know what to do."
Hodge didn't look too thrilled about Farouk's apparent order.
2. XTC Team A vs. XTC Team B.
Sam Hayne destroyed Mike Quackenbush, pinning him after Hell's Flame. Hayne tried the move again on Eddie Kingston, but the referee saw it and disqualified him. Adam Pearce, though, took advantage of the move and pinned Kingston. D-Lo Brown pinned Harker Dirge after hitting him with the Lo-Down 4 times. He then pinned Koko B. Ware after a sky high. Crossbones and Pearce tried to double-team Brent Albright, but it backfire, and Albright forced Crossbones to submit to his Crowbar. He then trapped Pearce in the same move and eliminated him. Chris Hero and Claudio Castognoli double-teamed Albright, and Hero pinned him after a Hero's Welcome. This left XTC Champion Erick Stevens against 3 opponents. Stevens pinned Hero after a Doctor Bomb. He then pinned Brown after a Sarasota Screwdriver. Finally, he pinned Castagnoli after another Doctor Bomb.
Winner: XTC Team A (XTC Champion Erick Stevens Sole Survivor!).
Ox Baker and Capt. Lou Albano returned to their locker room to find both Bruiser Brody and Ox Baker unconscious. Ox was lying face-down near the door, like he was sneak attacked from behind, and Brody was lying bleeding in the corner of the room under a locker. The locker had a dent in it like it had been kicked.
Albano: "Al, get security in here now!"
Snow left the room, and Albano turned around to find King Kong Bundy and One Man Gang standing in the doorway laughing.
Bundy: "Oh, what a bummer. They look pretty hurt."
Gang: "How much you think we'll get paid for this?"
Bundy: "Well, 1000 gold pieces split 2 ways."
Gang: "Don't you mean 3 ways?"
Bob Roop: "What's going on?"
Albano: "You!" (He lunged forward, but Gang knocked him down with a punch.)
Gang: "Cool down, Capt., before you hurt yourself."
Al Snow then returned and attacked Gang, but Headstalker separated them.
Headstalker: "Get lost before I decide to punish you right here and now."
Bundy: "Let's go, guys."
Roop: "Headstalker, I swear, I didn't-"
Bundy: "Stop acting so humble, Bob. You're the man, and even he knows it."
They left as EMT's arrived.
3. Sherri's Sensations vs. Saiko-No.
Jim Londos got disqualified for using an airplane spin (He had already been warned earlier). Jushin Liger pinned Tiger Mask after a Brainbuster. This left Giant Baba against all 3 opponents. Baba pinned Liger after a Neckbreaker Drop. He then pinned John Pesek after a giant DDT. Baba and Ultimate Champion Dan Severn fought back and forth until Severn dragged Baba to the floor and smashed him into the metal steps. He began choking him on the guardrail, and when Sherri Martel tried to stop him, he punched her. The referee disqualified Severn at that point.
Winners: Sherri's Sensations (Giant Baba Sole Survivor!).
King Kong Bundy, One Man Gang, and Bob Roop were in the back.
Bundy: "Great job there, Bob."
Bob: "But I had nothing to do with-"
Gang: "-turning off the lights? Don't worry, we'll take credit for that. It's all good. I guess our match tonight should be pretty easy."
Sir Oliver Humperdink: "Not quite."
Bundy: "What do you mean, boss?"
Humperdink: "I just got the word from Shon. Ox and Brody Will be competing tonight. And I don't know if they're 100%, but I do know they're pretty ticked off."
Gang: "Well, I'm sure they're weak enough for us to collect the money. Let's go."
Bundy: "After you, killer (to Roop)."
As Roop and Humperdink disappeared through the curtain, Bundy turned to Gang.
Bundy: "And after they destroy Roop, we'll only have to split the money two ways."
Gang: "What if the one who really did the attack steps up to claim it?"
Bundy: "Are you kidding? After seeing how furious Brody is, he's probably hiding real good."
4. Wild Side vs. The Power Trip.
Brody and Ox flew to the ring and had to be restrained by security. Before the match could start though, GM Shon Maxx walked to the ring.
Shon: "I know you really want to kill each other, and you'll have your chance. But first, since I don't know for sure who attacked Brody and Ox, and I can't do anything. But if I do find out who's responsible, you're gone. It's that simple. Also, while I commend everyone tonight for working their hearts out, we've had way too many DQ's tonight. And seeing how this match could get out of control pretty quick, I'm asking the referees from here on to allow a little leeway in the matches. Only throw someone out if you absolutely have to."
Referee: "So they're allowed to attack Us too?"
Shon: "You knew the risks when we hired you, and I know you're more than willing to sacrifice yourself for the fans entertainment. Okay, okay, calm down, I'm kidding. Bring the color back to your face. Of course, if someone touches you, you can still throw them out. But otherwise, let them get a little more rough than usual. Oh, and to keep 'some' control, I'm banning all managers, bodyguards, valets, girlfriends, boyfriends, etc. from ringside. You either are competing or you're sitting in the back."
Both sides started to protest. Shon turned to Brody.
Shon: "Or do you not think you can handle things all by your wittle selves?"
Brody: "We're good, Capt."
After Albano and Humperdink left, Shon called for the bell and left the ring. All six men pounded on each other, with Al Snow and One Man Gang in the ring. Gang missed a 747 Splash, and Snow pinned him after a flying body attack. Bundy then rushed in and floored Snow before allowing Roop to finish him with a Shoulderbreaker. Ox then beat Bundy by KO after hitting the Heart Punch twice. This left Roop against 2 beyond-furious opponents.
Brody and Ox beat Roop for several minutes, from one side of the ring to another and to the floor. Suddenly, Danny Hodge walked out with a chair, as Abdullah Farouk shouted orders to him. He walked up behind Brody and lifted the chair up, but then threw the chair to the ground. Brody spun around and dropkicked him into the railing. He then flew back into the ring pinned Roop after a Jumping Knee Drop.
Winners: Wild Side (Brody and Ox Sole Survivors).
Aftermath:
Everyone left ringside as Danny Hodge got to his feet. Abdullah Farouk, microphone in hand, called him into the ring.
Farouk: "Daniel, I can see you are unwilling to be part of our team. So I'll offer you the chance to leave. I'll give you a match tonight. If you win, you're free."
Hodge: "Fine, who's my opponent?"
Farouk: "The Terrible Turk!"
5. Danny Hodge vs. The Terrible Turk.
Turk ripped into Hodge, tearing at his face and smashing him into the turnbuckles. He slammed him over and over again, and even seemed to snap his neck with a neck wrencher. Hodge managed to fight back and knocked The Turk down with a dropkick. He hit a flying shoulder and tried a cradle, but Turk kicked out. Farouk distracted the referee, and Turk used the moment to smash Hodge with the gold bar. He then locked the Stranglehold as the referee turned back.
Winner: The Terrible Turk (KO).
Clips were shown to build up the next match.
6. The Heenan Family vs. Team Cornette.
Curt Hennit pinned Stan Lane after a Hennig Plex, 15 seconds into the match. Pritchard and Eaton double-teamed Rude, with Pritchard getting the cover on Rude. Pritchard then pinned Dibiase after using brass knuckles. Hennig pinned Pritchard after a Hennig Plex, but fell to a double team from the Tag Team Champions Bobby Eaton and Dennis Coundrey. They hit a Rocket Launcher, and Coundrey pinned Hennig. This left Diamond Dallas Page against both opponents. They continued to hit double-team move after move. They went for a double goozle, but Page reversed it into a double Diamond Cutter. However, he was too hurt to capitalize, and he couldn't get the pin on Coundrey. They hit the Rocket Launcher 3 times, but Page kept kicking out. Finally, Coundrey suplexed Page onto Eaton's knee, and Eaton rolled him up for the victory.
Winners: Team Cornette (Eaton and Coundrey Sole Survivors!).
Pinnacle was shown in the back, calmly awaiting their match.
7. Ground n Pound vs. Pinnacle.
George Hackenschmidt and Bryan Danielson started off, and Danielson quickly brought Hack to the mat. He locked several, holds, but Hack kept breaking free. Suddenly, Hack leaped to his feet and tossed Danielson over the top rope. Danielson slid back in, but Hack flipped him and locked the Russian Bearhug. Danielson moved all over the ring to escape, but Hack kept the move locked. Finally, Danielson collapsed in a corner. The referee warned Hack for not breaking the hold quickly enough, but Gotch yelled out, "He's got till 5, Ref!"
Gotch then tagged in and dragged Danielson to the center of the ring before locking the Gotch Toehold. Danielson tapped out. Gotch and Hack then double-teamed Ed Lewis, but Lewis made a secret tag to World Champion Killer Kowalski. Kowalski knocked both opponents down and even threw Gotch into Pepper Gomez. Kowalski went to pick up Hack, but Hack dropped him to the mat with a heel hold. Lewis then slipped in and hit a knee clip on Hack, allowing Kowalski to lock the Kowalski Claw and slam Hack to the mat for the pin.
Kowalski then tossed Gomez around and hit a double clothesline with Lewis. Lewis went for the Strangler's Headlock, but Gomez reversed it into a small package to get the pin. This left Kowalski against Gotch and Gomez.
Kowalski hit a jumping elbow drop on Gomez and locked a stomach claw. Gotch called for Gomez to tag him, but Lewis grabbed his leg, and Kowalski used the distraction to slam an elbow into Gotch, sending him off and apron and crashing into the railing. Kowalski then continue to assault Gomez. He threw Gomez into the turnbuckle and hit a wince-causing running shoulder block that sandwiched Gomez and caused him to collapse to the mat. Kowalski then tossed him to the other side of the ring and charged, but Gomez moved out of the way. Kowalski crashed into the turnbuckle, and Gomez then dropkicked him back into the turnbuckle. Gomez then trapped Kowalski in the Mexican Cradle and got the pin as the crowd erupted.
Winners: Ground n Pound (Gomez and Gotch Sole Survivors!).
Aftermath: Ed Lewis, Bryan Danielson, and Don Leo Jonathan flew into the ring as Gomez slipped out. He was joined by George Hackenscmidt and Frank Gotch. As security separated the men, Gotch grabbed a microphone.
Gotch: "Kowalski, you fought with strength, you fought with courage, and you fought with heart. BUT YOU STILL LOST!"
The fans erupted again as Gotch and Hack lifted Gomez onto their shoulders and celebrated.
